This bill allows businesses that don't have an alcoholic beverage license to store sealed, unopened bottles of alcohol for customers and charge them storage fees. Previously, state law restricted this type of storage service to licensed alcohol sellers. The change lets unlicensed establishments—like wine shops or other retailers—offer wine or liquor storage as a service without needing a full alcohol sales license.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
