LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


SB 314, as amended, Wiener. Alcoholic beverages.
(1) The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act contains various provisions regulating the application for, the issuance of, the suspension of, and the conditions imposed upon alcoholic beverage licenses by the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Existing law generally provides that a violation of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act is a misdemeanor.
Existing law authorizes the issuance of a caterer’s permit, upon application to the department, to a licensee under an on-sale general license, an on-sale beer and wine license, a club license, or a veterans’ club license, that authorizes the holder of the permit to sell alcoholic beverages at specified locations and events, including, among others, conventions, sporting events, and trade exhibits.
This bill would require the department to expedite the review of an application for a caterer’s permit. prohibit the authorization of a catering permit for use at any one premises for more than 52 events in one calendar year, except as specified. The bill would, until July 1, 2023, authorize the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control to, for 365 days from the date the COVID-19 state of emergency order is lifted, or longer if the licensee has a pending application for permanent expansion of their premises, allow licensees to continue to exercise license privileges in an expanded licensed area authorized pursuant to a COVID-19 temporary catering permit, as provided.

This bill would authorize the department to issue a COVID-19 permanent caterer’s authorization to a licensee under an on-sale general license. The authorization would authorize the on-site consumption of the alcoholic beverages for which the licensee has on-sale privileges on property that is adjacent to the licensed premises, as specified. The bill would require the department to expedite the review of an application for an authorization, as specified. By broadening the definition of a crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

(2)Existing law makes it a misdemeanor for a licensee under an on-sale license issued for public premises, as defined, to permit a person under the age of 21 years to enter and remain in the licensed premises without lawful business therein.

This bill would permit a licensee under an on-sale license issued for public premises to permit a person under the age of 21 years to enter and remain in the licensed premises provided that alcoholic beverages are not sold, served, or consumed on the premises during the time that a person under the age of 21 years is present.

(3)Existing law provides for various annual fees for the issuance of alcoholic beverage licenses, depending upon the type of license issued. Existing law additionally authorizes specified alcoholic beverage licensees to purchase advertising space and time from, or on behalf of, an on-sale retail licensee, under certain conditions, if the on-sale retail licensee is the owner, manager, agent of the owner, assignee of the owner’s advertising rights, or major tenant of specified facilities.

This bill would authorize the department to issue a music venue license that would allow the licensee to sell beer, wine, and distilled spirits at retail for consumption on the premises in a music entertainment facility, as defined. The bill would impose an original fee and an annual renewal fee for the license, which would be deposited in the Alcohol Beverage Control Fund. The bill would provide for the purchases of advertising time and space with revised parameters, including that the parties submit a declaration to the department relating to the agreement to purchase advertising time and space.

(4)Existing law requires the department to hold a hearing on a protest, accusation, or petition for a license in the county in which the premises or license is located, except as provided, and to be conducted in accordance with specified administrative procedures.

This bill would require the department to a hearing described above within 6 months after the filing of a protest, accusation, or petition for a license.

(5)Existing law permits specified licensees, or their authorized agents, to provide, free of charge, entertainment, food, and distilled spirits, wine, or nonalcoholic beverages to consumers at an invitation-only event, subject to various conditions, including a limitation on the number of events the authorized person may conduct in a year, as provided.

This bill would delete the above-described condition.

(2) Existing law requires a licensee or its authorized agent to, at least 30 days prior to an event, apply to the department for a permit authorizing the event and provide specified information to the department, in addition to any other information required by the department.
This bill would instead require the application and specified information to be submitted 90 days prior to the event.

(6)

(3) Existing law, with exceptions, prohibits a licensee from having having, upon the licensed premises premises, any alcoholic beverages other than the alcoholic beverage that the licensee is authorized to sell at the premises under their license, and makes a violation of this prohibition punishable as a misdemeanor.
This bill would, as an exception to that prohibition, authorize 2 or more on-sale general licensees whose licensed premises are immediately adjacent to each other, as specified, to share a common licensed area in which consumption of alcoholic beverages is permitted under various circumstances a licensed manufacturer to share a common licensed area with multiple licensed retailers, subject to specified provisions, including, (A) a licensee sharing the common licensed area with a licensed manufacturer is prohibited from selling or serving any alcoholic beverages that are manufactured, produced, bottled, processed, imported, rectified, distributed, represented, or sold by the manufacturer, as provided, (B) no thing of value may be given or furnished by the manufacturer to the retailers, except advertising or promotion, as provided, (C) the manufacturer may have on the area of its licensed premises that encompass the shared common licensed area alcoholic beverages that would not otherwise be permitted on the manufacturer’s licensed premises, as provided, (D) all licensees sharing the common licensed area are required to hold the same license type retailers, and (E) all licensees holding licenses within the shared common licensed area are jointly responsible for compliance with all laws that may subject their license to discipline.

This bill would provide that a licensee that shares a licensed premises with another licensee but does not operate at the same time as the other licensee is responsible for compliance with the act and for any violation that occurs on the premises only during the time when that licensee operates under its license.

(7)Under existing law, any person possessing an open container of an alcoholic beverage in any city, county, or city and county-owned public place, as specified, or any regional park or recreation and park district, is guilty of an infraction if the city or county has enacted an ordinance that prohibits the possession of those containers or the consumption of alcoholic beverages in those areas, except as specified.

The Planning and Zoning Law authorizes the legislative body of any city or county to adopt ordinances regulating zoning within its jurisdiction, as specified.

This bill would authorize a city, including a charter city, county, or city and county, to allow in commercial zones the consumption of alcoholic beverages, including the possession of an open container of an alcoholic beverage.

(8)This bill would make various conforming changes.

(9)

(4) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

(10)

(5) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.

(e)The department shall penalize a violation of any provision of this section by the suspension of the authorized licensee’s license or by a fine equal to the contract value of the agreement for advertising.

23555.

The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:

(a)Statutes to implement a three-tier system, which requires a separation between manufacturing interests, wholesale interests, and retail interests in the production, distribution, and sale of alcoholic beverages, are as proper and necessary to the public welfare in the 21st Century as they were when first enacted following the enactment of the 21st Amendment to the United States Constitution and the repeal of prohibition; that the three-tier system by requiring economic separation between the tiers contributes to a fair, open, and competitive market resulting in interbrand and other competition within each tier, thereby broadening consumer choices; and that it also prevents disorderly market conditions arising from the domination of local markets through vertical integration leading to excessive sales of alcoholic beverages and consumption produced by overly aggressive marketing techniques, including, but not limited to, the domination of local markets and the undue economic influence of one tier over another. The Legislature further affirms that temperance is achieved, consistent with the structural regulation that promotes a competitive and orderly market, by controlled access to, and responsible use and consumption of, alcoholic beverages by persons of legal drinking age.

(b)The enactment of tied-house restrictions are necessary economic regulations that serve important public interests, and the restrictions prohibiting a manufacturer or wholesaler from furnishing, giving, or lending any money or other thing of value to a retail licensee, or from paying or compensating a retailer for advertising as provided in Section 25503, are necessary to promote and maintain an orderly competitive market that is open and accessible to all brands and to prevent manufacturers from dominating local markets through payment of incentives and compensation to retailers. The Legislature further finds and declares that limited exceptions have been made to this general prohibition to promote an identifiable public purpose and interest for the exception, which have been limited to the express terms of the exception so as to not undermine the general prohibition.

(c)Because this system of prohibition with limited, specific exceptions may be incorrectly construed to undermine the general prohibition despite legislative directives to the contrary, this section is necessary to clarify and reenforce the general prohibition as provided in Section 25503.

(d)There may be instances where the community public interest and welfare would benefit from the music entertainment facility owner or its major tenant being able to receive revenue for the advertisement of alcoholic beverages on the premises of the facility. Therefore, this article is enacted to authorize manufacturers of alcoholic beverages to enter into agreements with the owner or major tenant of a music entertainment facility for the placement of brand advertisements upon the premises of the facility where the alcoholic beverage sales on the facility premises are conducted by a separate, independent entity who is the on-sale general licensee and does not share in the advertising revenue.

(e)The provisions of this article and other exceptions in this division to the general prohibition against tied interests must be narrowly construed and limited to the express terms of the exception so as not to undermine the general prohibition. The Legislature expressly intends that this article and division be construed in accordance with these findings.

SEC. 7.Section 24300 of the Business and Professions Code is amended to read:
24300.

(a)Any hearings held on a protest, accusation, or petition for a license shall be held in the county in which the premises or licensee is located; provided, that hearings before the department itself on reconsideration or under subdivision (c) of Section 11517 of the Government Code may be held at any place in the state where the department is meeting.

The department, in its exclusive discretion, shall consider scheduling the hearing at a time, including evening hours, and at a place convenient to all parties to a proceeding, including those witnesses required to be present, and the public affected.

(b)Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivision (a), if a protest is filed against an application for a license and the proposed premises are located within a city, the department may, in its discretion, hold the hearing within that city, unless the protest is filed by the governing body of the city, in which case the department shall hold the hearing within that city.

(c)For any hearing held pursuant to this division, the department may delegate the power to hear and decide to an administrative law judge appointed by the director.
