Ment Text

Louisiana HB424 regulates the issuance of Class B and C alcohol permits in annexed areas previously prohibiting alcohol sales.

Louisiana HB424 modifies existing law regarding the issuance of Class B and C alcohol permits in annexed areas where alcohol sales were previously prohibited. The bill mandates that a local option election must be held to authorize the issuance of permits in such annexed areas. This requirement applies only to Class B and C permits and does not affect permits issued before the bill's effective date. The bill aims to ensure that alcohol sales are permitted or prohibited in entire wards, election districts, or municipalities, not in any portion thereof.
