  1. Pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated, §§ 57-5-101, et seq., it shall be lawful in the Town of Mountain City to transport, store, sell, distribute, possess, receive, or manufacture beer of alcoholic content of not more than eight percent (8%) by weight, and/or any other beverage of like alcoholic content, subject to the provisions of this chapter and the privilege taxes provided in this code. However, it shall be unlawful for any person to sell, store for sale, distribute for sale, or manufacture beer without first making application to and obtaining a permit from the beer board. The application shall be made on such form as the board shall prescribe and/or furnish, and pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated, § 57-5-104(a), shall be accompanied by a non-refundable application fee of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00). Each applicant must be a person of good moral character and certify that he has read, and is familiar with, the provisions of the chapter.
  2. Display of permits. Each permit holder or licensee shall display and keep displayed such permit and license in a conspicuous place on the premises where he is licensed to conduct such business. Permits and licenses shall not be transferable. A separate permit and license shall be obtained for each location where any applicant is to manufacture, distribute, or sell legalized beverages. When a permit holder shall discontinue business or ceases to be associated on a day-to-day basis with the business, the permit terminates, and no refund of any licenses or fees of any nature will be made. Sales of alcoholic beverages shall immediately cease unless or until someone else is issued a permit. Manufacturers must comply with all applicable laws of the State of Tennessee.
