A temporary on-site consumption permit may be applied for by any party who meets the requirements set forth herein, with a nonrefundable fee of one hundred fifty dollars ($150.00) being paid for the initial permit, voted on and granted by the beer board. A subsequent permit for the same venue may be obtained through town hall, upon the approval of the beer board, for additional dates at a fee of fifty dollars ($50.00) per occurrence. A limit of ten (10) subsequent permits may be obtained in a calendar year. All temporary permits expire January 31 of each calendar year. Applicants may reapply beginning February 1 of each calendar year.

    3. The temporary on-site consumption permit is nontransferrable.

  3. The governing body responsible for issuing a supplemental on-site consumption permit will be the Town of Mountain City Beer Board and must be applied for forty-five (45) days prior to the event.
