PAG LIN

  1  1    Section 1.  Section 123.49, subsection 2, paragraph c, Code
  1  2 Supplement 2003, is amended to read as follows:
  1  3    c.  Sell alcoholic beverages, wine, or beer to any person
  1  4 on credit, except with a bona fide credit card.  This
  1  5 provision does not apply to sales by a club to its members nor
  1  6 to sales by a hotel or motel to bona fide registered guests.
  1  7 This provision also does not apply to sales by a convention
  1  8 center, civic center, or events center to persons renting or
  1  9 using, pursuant to a written agreement, all or part of the
  1 10 facility.
  1 11                           EXPLANATION
  1 12    This bill provides that alcoholic beverages, wine, or beer
  1 13 may be sold on credit, on a basis other than through the use
  1 14 of a bona fide credit card, by a convention center, civic
  1 15 center, or events center to individuals who are renting or
  1 16 using all or part of the facility pursuant to a written
  1 17 agreement.  Currently, Code section 123.49 prohibits selling
  1 18 alcoholic beverages, wine, or beer on credit, except with a
  1 19 bona fide credit card, unless the sale is being made by a club
  1 20 to its members or by a hotel or motel to bona fide registered
  1 21 guests.  The bill extends this exception to convention
  1 22 centers, civic centers, or events centers contracting with
  1 23 individuals for facility usage.
