Transfer of Ownership of License
If there is currently a liquor license at the premise you are thinking of occupying, you will need to apply for a transfer of ownership.
This is different from a change of stockholders with a 10% or greater ownership interest, officers, directors, managing members and members. When such a change occurs, you must report a corporation, LLC, or partnership change.
