NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)
 
BILL NUMBER: A9216
 
SPONSOR: Rosenthal L
  TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the alcoholic beverage control law, in relation to licensing restrictions for manufacturers and wholesalers of alcoholic beverages on licensees who sell at retail for on-premises consumption; and providing for the repeal of certain provisions upon expiration ther- eof   PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA: To add parcels of land to the list of premises which are exempt from the provisions of law which generally restrict manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers from sharing an interest in a liquor license.   SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Sections 1 and 2 exempt certain parcels of land in Manhattan from the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law's tied house regulations. Section 3 is the effective date.   EXISTING LAW: Alcoholic Beverage Control Law Section 101(1)(a) prohibits alcohol manufacturers and wholesalers from having an interest in alcohol retail places. ABC Law Section 105 (16) and (17) prohibit retail licensees for off-premises consumption from having an interest in or engaging in certain transactions with any premises where alcohol is manufactured or sold at wholesale.   JUSTIFICATION: Since the 1930s, when Prohibition was repealed, New York State law has restricted owners of alcohol manufacturer's licenses, wholesale licenses and retail licenses from having an interest in each other. Known as the "tied-house laws", efforts have been made to modernize the law by addressing these types of archaic ownership issues. In the meantime, this bill exempts specific locations from these provisions of law. These provisions have been amended on occasion by exempting certain properties to support local economic development goals. Exemptions, such as the one provided by this bill, are narrowly tailored to prevent undue market influence by identifying select parcels using metes and bounds descriptions. A licensee can only snake use of this kind of exemption if, each of its New York-based alcohol manufacturing, wholesale and retail business parcels are exempted. This bill exempts businesses located at the following addresses in Manhattan: -10 South Street -53 Wall Street -376 West Broadway -25 Broadway -235 Freedom Place South -637 West 50th Street -89 East 42nd Street -781 Fifth Avenue -660 Madison Avenue -110 East 42nd Street   LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: New bill.   FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None.   EFFECTIVE DATE: This legislation will take effect immediately.
