New York A04072 amends the alcoholic beverage control law to mandate early closure for licensed premises with multiple law enforcement responses.

New York A04072, known as the "responsible neighborhood preservation act," amends the alcoholic beverage control law. It mandates that any licensed premises requiring law enforcement responses on more than three occasions in a calendar month must close by midnight for at least six months. Law enforcement responses include incidents like disorderly conduct, noise violations, fights, disturbances, public intoxication, or other criminal activity. The state liquor authority will establish rules for documenting and verifying these responses and for appealing the closure adjustment.
