[Adopted 7-8-1995]
The Town of St. Joseph hereby declares that
all "Class B" liquor licenses which are issued in the Town of St.
Joseph shall be issued under the authority of W.S.A. s. 125.51(3)(b),
which authorizes the sale of intoxicating liquor to be consumed by
the glass on the premises where sold and also authorizes the sale
of intoxicating liquor in the original package or container, in multiples
not to exceed four liters at any one time, to be consumed off the
premises where sold. Wine, however, may be sold for consumption off
the premises in the original package or otherwise in any quantity.
[Added 8-5-2010 by Ord. No. 2010-3[1]]
Timely start-up and continuation of business is an ongoing condition
of an alcohol beverage license issued under this chapter. The Town
Board may cancel or not renew any license granted under this chapter
if the privileges granted under the license are not exercised within
90 days after the granting of the license; or the business for which
the license was issued is discontinued or not open for business for
the purpose of the license for a period of 90 consecutive days or
more. Being open intermittently for periods of two days or less during
the ninety-day period shall not be sufficient to avoid cancellation
under this subsection. Before cancellation of the alcohol beverage
license under this section, the Town shall notify the licensee in
writing of the Town’s intent to cancel the license for nonuse
and provide the licensee with an opportunity for a hearing. The hearing
shall be conducted according to Wis. Stat. § 125.12(2)(b)
or any amendments thereto.
[Amended 9-2-1999]
This article shall apply retroactively to all
"Class B" liquor licenses issued since July 1, 1995.
