York state fair; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon
the expiration thereof
The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-bly, do enact as follows:
1 Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
2 the state liquor authority is authorized to grant a one-time license
3 credit to any on-premises retail licensee or any manufacturing licensee
4 with on-premises retail privileges for license or permit fees paid in
5 calendar year 2020 to the state liquor authority solely to sell alcohol-
6 ic beverages on the premises of the New York State Fairgrounds during

8 be authorized to apply to permit or license fees related to renewals or
9 applications to sell alcoholic beverages on the premises of the New York
10 State Fairgrounds or New York State Fair. Such credits shall be given at
11 no cost to the licensee and no late fees shall be charged to the licen-
12 see for such credit; however, if requested by the state liquor authori-
13 ty, such licensee shall still be required to submit any forms or infor-
14 mation to the state liquor authority to receive such credit to sell
15 alcoholic beverages on the premises of the New York State Fairgrounds or
16 the New York State Fair. However, no credit shall be issued or applied
17 pursuant to this section if such licensee is able to claim a credit for
18 such fees pursuant to any other applicable provision of law.
19 § 2. For purposes of this act, the "New York state fair" and "New York
20 state fairgrounds" shall have the same meaning and purpose as in article
21 2-A of the agriculture and markets law.
22 § 3. This act shall take effect immediately and shall expire and be
23 deemed repealed one year after such effective date.
