ratio of food sales to the sale of alcoholic beverages has been maintained for at least 6
months prior to the application for this permit. For a newly licensed establishment
the Board may immediately authorize the issuance of a special Sunday "on-sale"
permit if in the opinion of the Board and upon good cause shown the newly licensed
establishment meets the specifications of paragraph (2) of this subsection pertaining
to the preparation, serving and sale of food and if the holder of the license complies
with the provisions of this paragraph. Applicants for a special Sunday "on-sale"
permit shall furnish the Board with any proof it considers necessary indicating the
qualifications of the establishment to be issued this permit.
(iv) The holder of a special Sunday "on-sale" permit is subject to all
other provisions of this article pertaining to Class B beer, wine and liquor licenses,

§ 11-517 of this article and elsewhere may not apply. Holders of this permit shall
submit to the Board, from time to time at regular intervals to be established by the
Board, a statement indicating in detail the ratio of food sales to the sales of alcoholic
beverages. If the average daily receipts from the sale of food fail for 3 successive
months to equal 40 percent of the total daily receipts from the sale of food and
alcoholic beverages, the Board shall cancel this permit. Class B beer, wine and liquor
licensees with a special Sunday "on-sale" permit and Class BH licensees may sell
beer, wine and liquor by the drink from the bar or a cocktail lounge to persons on the
licensed premises.
(v) The Board may adopt regulations it considers necessary
relating to the issuance, suspension, and cancellation of these permits in furtherance
of this subsection.

restaurants, a term which shall be defined by the regulations of the Board.

of $800,000 for dining room facilities and kitchen equipment, which sum may not
include the cost of land, buildings or a lease.
3. The restaurant shall have a minimum seating capacity of
100 persons.
4. The Board has complete discretion as to whom these
licenses may be issued, the number to be issued, and whether an existing license
holder of an alcoholic beverages license may also have an interest in one Class BLX
license.
5. Subject to sub-subparagraphs 6, 7, and 8 of this
subsection, an individual or corporation may hold not more than 6 Class BLX
