8-219 : Transfer of permits.

  1. A beer permit may be transferred by the holder from one location to another when the permit holder changes his place of distribution due to:

    1. Destruction caused by act of God.
    2. Fire.
    3. Acts of the permit holder's landlord.
    4. Construction of new place of distribution with abandonment of the prior place of distribution.
    5. Any other transfer of location permitted by the beer board.

    The new location mut meet the criteria of this chapter at the time of the change of location.

  2. A corporate holder of a beer permit shall be allowed to retain the permit if the corporation changes its name, merges with another corporation, is acquired by another corporation or undergoes other corporate restructuring, provided that the corporate beer permit holder notifies the beer board of any such changes within forty-five (45) days of such changes and any new owner of the corporation is not disqualified to hold a beer permit pursuant to this chapter.
  3. No beer permits issued to individuals under this chapter may be transferred to other individuals or corporations except by the beer board. The beer board may transfer a permit to a buyer or transferee in the event that a permit holder sells or transfers his business or to the permit holder heirs in the even of the permit holder's death. In the case of sale or transfer, the permit holder must notify the beer board thirty (30) days in advance of such sale or transfer. In the event of the permit holder's death, his heirs must notify the beer board within sixty (60) days of the permit holder's death. The beer board may waive the notice requirement if it determines that there are extraordinary circumstances which make it equitable to do so, but in no event may a permit be transferred to an individual or corporation who is not qualified to hold a permit under the requirements of this chapter.
