| ||||||
20 | Sec. 1-3.25.
"Hotel" means every building or other | ||||||
21 | structure kept, used,
maintained, advertised and held out to | ||||||
22 | the public to be a place where food
is actually served and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | consumed and sleeping accommodations are offered for
adequate | ||||||
2 | pay to travelers and guests, whether transient, permanent or
| ||||||
3 | residential, in which twenty-five (25) or more rooms are used | ||||||
4 | for the
sleeping accommodations of such guests and having one | ||||||
5 | or more public dining
rooms where meals are served to such | ||||||
6 | guests, such sleeping accommodations
and dining rooms being | ||||||
7 | conducted in the same building or buildings in
connection | ||||||
8 | therewith and such building or buildings, structure or
| ||||||
9 | structures being provided with adequate and sanitary kitchen | ||||||
10 | and dining
room equipment and capacity. All public dining | ||||||
11 | rooms, banquet rooms, meeting rooms, room service areas, | ||||||
12 | mini-bars, and other locations within or adjacent to a hotel in | ||||||
13 | which alcoholic liquors are stored, offered for sale, or sold | ||||||
14 | at retail shall be considered part of the hotel's licensed | ||||||
15 | premises if those locations within or adjacent to the hotel are | ||||||
16 | owned and managed by the hotel operator. As part of the hotel's | ||||||
17 | licensed premises, each and all of those locations within or | ||||||
18 | adjacent to the hotel shall be maintained and managed pursuant | ||||||
19 | to a single retailer's license issued by the State Commission | ||||||
20 | to the hotel operator, regardless of the number of local | ||||||
21 | retailer licenses mandated by the local unit of government | ||||||
22 | having jurisdiction over the hotel. Public dining rooms and | ||||||
23 | other locations within or adjacent to a hotel that are owned or | ||||||
24 | managed by a person other than the hotel operator and are | ||||||
25 | licensed by the local unit of government having jurisdiction | ||||||
26 | over the hotel to a person other than the hotel operator are |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | not considered part of the hotel's licensed premises for | ||||||
2 | purposes of this Act and, as such, must be maintained and | ||||||
3 | operated under separate retailer's licenses.

| ||||||
6 | Sec. 3-14. Issuance of license by Commission. Nothing | ||||||
7 | contained in this
Act shall, however, be construed to
permit | ||||||
8 | the State Commission to issue any license, other than
| ||||||
9 | manufacturer's, foreign importer's, importing distributor's, | ||||||
10 | non-resident
dealer's, and
distributor's, broker's and | ||||||
11 | non-beverage user's license for any premises in any
prohibited | ||||||
12 | territory, or to issue any license other than manufacturer's,
| ||||||
13 | foreign importer's, importing distributor's, non-resident | ||||||
14 | dealer's,
distributor's,
railroad's,
airplane's, boat's, or | ||||||
15 | broker's license, auction liquor license, or

| ||||||
16 | user's license, unless the
person applying for such license | ||||||
17 | shall have obtained a local license for
the same premises. For | ||||||
18 | purposes of this Section and only in regards to a hotel, the | ||||||
19 | local license issued for the same premises may include multiple | ||||||
20 | local licenses issued to a hotel operator for various portions | ||||||
21 | of the hotel building, structure, or adjacent property owned | ||||||
22 | and managed by the hotel operator in which alcoholic liquors | ||||||
23 | may be stored, offered for sale, and sold; however, all of | ||||||
24 | those portions of the hotel building, structure, or adjacent | ||||||
25 | property shall be considered the hotel premises for purposes of |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the issuance of a retailer's license by the State Commission. | ||||||
2 | When such person has obtained a local license and has
made | ||||||
3 | application to the State Commission in conformity with this Act | ||||||
4 | and
paid the license fee provided, it shall be the duty of the | ||||||
5 | State Commission
to issue a retailer's license to him; | ||||||
6 | provided, however, that the State
Commission may refuse the | ||||||
7 | issuance or renewal of a retailer's license, upon
notice and | ||||||
8 | after hearing, upon the grounds authorized in Section 6-3
of | ||||||
9 | this Act, and, provided further, that the issuance of such
| ||||||
10 | license shall not prejudice the State Commission's action in | ||||||
11 | subsequently
suspending or revoking such license if it is | ||||||
12 | determined by the State
Commission, upon notice and after | ||||||
13 | hearing, that the licensee has, within
the same or the | ||||||
14 | preceding license period, violated any provision of this
Act or | ||||||
15 | any rule or regulation issued pursuant thereto and in effect | ||||||
16 | for 30
days prior to such violation.
The Commission may also | ||||||
17 | refuse to renew a license if the licensee has failed
to pay an | ||||||
18 | offer in compromise, pre-disciplinary settlement, or a fine | ||||||
19 | imposed
by order.

5 | kinds of licenses to
be issued in their political subdivision, | ||||||
6 | except those issued to the
specific non-beverage users exempt | ||||||
7 | from payment of license fees under
Section 5-3 which shall be | ||||||
8 | issued without payment of
any local license fees, and the | ||||||
9 | manner of distribution of such fees after
their collection; to | ||||||

4 | 1,000,000 that
has adopted the form of government authorized | ||||||
5 | under "An Act concerning cities,
villages, and incorporated | ||||||
6 | towns, and to repeal certain Acts herein named",
approved | ||||||
