Referendum: Alcohol Sales
(The following is provided for information only. The League of Women Voters only supports or opposes issues that our members have studied and reached consensus on. We have not taken positions for or against these proposed amendments.)
Local Referendum Question:
"Shall the South Carolina Department of Revenue be authorized to issue temporary permits in this County for a period not to exceed twenty-four hours to allow the possession, sale, and consumption of alcoholic liquors by the drink to bona fide nonprofit organizations and business establishments authorized to be licensed for consumption-on-premises sales and to allow the sale of beer and wine at permitted off-premises locations without regard to the days or hours of sales?"
EXPLANATION OF ABOVE:
A yes vote means that a non-profit organization or a business in Dorchester County that is authorized to sell alcoholic liquors by the drink for on-site consumption or sales of beer and wine for off-premises consumption can obtain a permit to do so without regard to days or hours of the sale.
A no vote means that businesses located in Dorchester County would not be allowed to sell alcoholic liquors or beer or wine on Sunday.
