HB 135 Engrossed 2018 Regular Session Dwight
Abstract: Eliminates the commissioner's ability to waive the state application fee for certain
permits.
Present law allowed the commissioner, prior to Aug. 1, 2016, to waive all state application fees, or
provide a credit for the fee, when a permit is not issued within three business days after receipt of
a properly completed application for an alcohol beverage permit.
Proposed law removes this provision which allowed the commissioner to waive the state application
fee, or provide a credit for the fee, for permits when the permit was not issued within three business
days after receipt of application.
