NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 32B-2-202 authorizes the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission to adopt and issue policy, rules, and procedures that establish criteria and procedures for issuing, denying, not renewing, suspending, or revoking a retail license, including the limited service restaurant license; and prescribe the conduct, management, and equipment of any premises where alcohol is sold, served, consumed, or stored.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

There is no record of written comments received since the five-year review period.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule regulates operations at establishments holding limited service-restaurant liquor licenses. It establishes licensing requirements; sets procedures for licensees to order from and/or return wine and heavy beer items to the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control (DABC); outlines restrictions on restaurant operating hours; sets regulations on the sale of alcoholic beverages on the restaurant premises including service and consumption at the patron's table, a counter, or grandfathered bar structure; establishes guidelines for the use of alcoholic product flavorings; establishes requirements for menus and price lists; and sets rules for employee identification badges, brownbagging, and rules that define the "remodels a grandfathered bar structure". All of the regulations set forth in this rule remain important and applicable to the operations of a limited-service restaurant. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
