AN ACT
To repeal section 311.485, RSMo Supp. 1998, relating to temporary permits for liquor by the drink, and to enact in lieu thereof one new section relating to the same subject.
Section A. Section 311.485, RSMo Supp. 1998, is repealed and one new section enacted in lieu thereof, to be known as section 311.485, to read as follows:
311.485. 1. The supervisor of liquor control may issue a temporary permit to caterers and other persons holding licenses to sell intoxicating liquor by the drink at retail for consumption on the premises pursuant to the provisions of this chapter who furnish provisions and service for use at a particular function, occasion or event at a particular location other than the licensed premises, but not including a "festival" as defined in chapter 316, RSMo. The temporary permit shall be effective for a period not to exceed one hundred twenty consecutive hours, and shall authorize the service of alcoholic beverages at such function, occasion or event during the hours at which alcoholic beverages may lawfully be sold or served upon premises licensed to sell alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption. For every permit issued pursuant to the provisions of this section, the permittee shall pay to the director of revenue the sum of ten dollars for each calendar day, or fraction thereof, for which the permit is issued.
2. Except as provided in subsection 3 of this section, all provisions of the liquor control law and the ordinances, rules and regulations of the incorporated city, or the unincorporated area of any county, in which is located the premises in which such function, occasion or event is held shall extend to such premises and shall be in force and enforceable during all the time that the permittee, its agents, servants, employees, or stock are in such premises. [This bill will] Except for Missouri-produced wines in the original package, the provisions of this section shall not include the sale of packaged goods covered by this temporary permit.
3. Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, any caterer who possesses a valid state and valid local liquor license may deliver alcoholic beverages, in the course of his or her catering business. A caterer who possesses a valid state and valid local liquor license need not obtain a separate license for each city [he] the caterer delivers in, so long as such city permits any caterer to deliver alcoholic beverages within the city.
