| This legislation creates a combined license for agency liquor stores that also sell beer and wine. Currently, the total of the licenses required in this situation equals $700 with a $10 registration fee. This bill would increase the fee to $775 and eliminate the registration fee. The additional $75 would be transferred from the General Fund to the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Substance Abuse Other Special Revenue Funds program to support underage drinking prevention programs. This analysis assumes 10 stores would opt for the new license, therefore increasing General Fund revenue and transfers to the Department of Health and Human Services by $750. The loss of General Fund revenue from eliminating the registration fee is expected to be minor and no change to the budget is required. | ||||||
