Alcohol license exception for Phelps restaurant

This applies even if the building is within 200 feet of a school, church, synagogue, or other place of worship. The place must sell food or drinks for people to consume there. The property must be the exact parcel described in the law’s survey for that site. The change takes effect immediately.
