Senator Dan Sullivan (District 20) carried SB 523 for Senator Tucker and introduced an amendment that defines the term "bar" for the purposes of alcoholic beverage permitting. Sullivan said the original bill left the definition undefined and the amendment clarifies that a bar is anything that is not a restaurant; ABC indicated it was comfortable with that definition.
The committee had no witnesses signed up in opposition and adopted the amendment by voice vote. Senator Sullivan closed and asked for a due-pass recommendation; the committee gave the bill a due pass.
The bill will proceed with the committee's recommendation.
