House Bill 2526 amends the Alcoholic Beverage Code to create a promotional permit that allows the permit holder, on behalf of a distiller, brewer, rectifier, manufacturer, winery, or wine bottler with whom the permit holder has contracted, to engage in activities to promote and enhance the sale of alcoholic beverages in the state, including activities that take place on the premises of an alcoholic beverage permit or license holder. The bill provides for an annual state permit fee of $300, prohibits a local fee for the application or issuance of the permit, and prohibits the permit holder from having any direct or indirect interest in any alcoholic beverage permit or license issued by the state other than the authorized promotional contract.
