Under existing law, the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board may not issue an alcoholic beverage retail license in a Class 4 municipality that has adopted a mayor-council form of government unless the application for a license was first approved by the governing body of the municipality, or if the application was denied, the denial was set aside by a court based on grounds that the governing body failed to show a valid enumerated reason why the denial was appropriate.
This bill would revise the list of enumerated reasons why denial of an alcoholic beverage license by the governing body was appropriate.
