11 CSR 70-2.120 - Retail Licensees
PURPOSE: This amendment removes unnecessary language and clarifies the expectations of retail licensees.
(1) Sanitary Premises.
(A) All retail intoxicating liquor licensees
are to keep their licensed premises clean and sanitary and meeting minimum
standards of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and local
sanitation laws and ordinances where applicable.
(B) Applicants for a retail license who
prepare or process food on the premises shall provide a copy of a certificate
demonstrating successful completion of a health inspection with their license
application. No such applicant may be granted a retail license without such a
certificate. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, the division
may grant a retail license without a certificate of successful inspection, if
requested by the applicant, conditioned on the applicant providing a copy of
such certificate within ten (10) days of issuance of the certificate.
(2) No retailer may place or
permit the placing of any object on or within the windows of premises covered
by licenses which impedes or obstructs vision from the exterior into the
interior.
(3) No holder of a
retail license may use illuminated brand signs exclusively for illuminating
purposes. Sufficient light must be maintained at all times to ensure clear
visibility into the interior and within the interior of the premises.
(4) No licensee may operate, play, or permit
the operation of any public speaking system transmitter, sound amplification
device, or any other type of device, mechanical or electronic, to emit or
direct music, spoken words, sounds, or noise of any kind exceeding eighty-six
(86) decibels on an A-weighted scale when measured across a residential
property line fifty feet (50') or more from the source of the noise between the
hours of 11:00 pm and 11:00 am. This regulation does not supersede any state or
local laws or ordinances regulating noise in the area.
(5) Any premises for which a secondary retail
license is sought must be the same as the premises covered by the primary
retail license. This regulation shall not apply to catering or festival
licenses.
(6) Resorts. Licenses
authorizing the retail sale of liquor by the drink may be issued to qualified
applicants for resorts as defined in section
311.095,
RSMo. Applicants for a resort license shall prepare and maintain records in
order to substantiate the sales figures as presented in the certified
statement, including but not limited to bank statements, cancelled checks, and
invoices for food and intoxicating liquor purchases.
