Beverages - Licenses

FOR the purpose of eliminating in Prince George's County the
prohibition on the county board of license
commissioners from approving a substitution of
corporate officers if the corporation had transferred
more than a certain percent of its stock since the last
license transfer.

BY repealing and reenacting, with amendments,

Article 2B - Alcoholic Beverages

Section 53(f)

Annotated Code of Maryland

(1981 Replacement Volume and 1981 Supplement)

Article 2B - Alcoholic Beverages

53.

(f) In Prince George's County, if an existing license
has been issued to individuals for the use of a corporation
or club and thereafter the licensee desires to substitute
one or more of the officers of such corporation or club,
[such] THE substitution may be requested by filing with the
board of license commissioners for [said] THE county a
petition setting forth the necessary information for [such]
THE substitution or substitutions without the necessity of
filing a formal application for transfer of license as
otherwise provided in this article. [Said] THE petition
for substitution of officers shall be approved by the [said]
board upon a proper showing that the licensee would still
meet the requirements of the law as set forth elsewhere in
