Amendment to the Lilburn City Code Ch. 6, Alcoholic Beverages, to provide for home delivery and to expand the definition of Brewery

On Monday, the City Council reviewed Ordinance No 2020-558, which amends Chapter 6, Alcoholic Beverages, in the City of Lilburn Code. On August 3, 2020, Governor Kemp signed HB 879 into law, establishing a state law permitting the home delivery of unopened containers of alcohol under certain provisions as well as tasting events. The City's current policy on brewers and brewery licenses are out of date and need revision. The intent is to provide for home delivery of alcohol by an authorized package retailer, which sells alcohol for consumption on the premises. It is also to expand the definition of brewery to include on and off-premise consumption and outdoor consumption. The Lilburn City Council approved the adoption of Ordinance 2020-558. Vote: 4-0
