Miscellaneous Resolution # 88005
BY: GENERAL GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE-Richard G. Skarritt, Chairperson
RE: (SUPPORT) LEGISLATION GIVING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AUTHORITY TO APPROVE
EXTENSION OF TIME PERIODS FOR LIQUOR LICENSE ESCROWS
TO THE OAKLAND COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
Mr. Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, local liquor licenses are in some instances being held in escrow
for extended periods of time; and
WHEREAS, because escrow holding periods at times are excessive, it is
clear that local jurisdictions should become involved in the determination of
limitations in the escrowing of local liquor licenses; and
WHEREAS, in order to allow local jurisdictions to participate in the
liquor license escrow period determination process, an amendment to state law
is needed.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
urges that the Michigan Liquor Control Act be amended to permit local governing
bodies to approve any extension of a liquor license escrow period.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that copies of this resolution be sent to all
Oakland County State Legislators and to the county's legislative agent.
Mr. Chairperson, on behalf of the General Government Committee, I move
the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
