Board confirms NYE booze licence extensions
(CNS): The chairman of the Liquor Licensing Board has confirmed that people holding booze licence will get a time extension for New Year’s Eve, which this year falls on a Wednesday. Officials stated that liquor-licence holders in all seven categories will get a one-hour extension beyond their existing regular closing times on New Year’s Eve. Board Chairman Mitchell Welds said, however, that it is not automatic and licence holders must apply for the extension. He also explained that the additional hour is added to the closing time, so a business that normally closes at 1am in accordance with its licence can apply for an extension to close at 2am. Welds also noted that all other licence stipulations remain in effect.
“Liquor sales and the playing of music must cease during the last ten minutes of permitted opening hours for retail, hotel, restaurant, and beer or wine categories of licences,” he said. ‘Furthermore, customers are to vacate the premises before closing."
For more information, licence holders and members of the public may contact the Liquor Licensing Board’s Executive Secretary, Marva Scott, on 244-3168 or marva.scott@gov.ky

How absolutely generous of you. Thanks I guess…
Crap, I’m starting now then.
A little advice to those who Drink and Drive:
"SEAT BELTS ARE NO WAY NEAR AS CONFINING AS A WHEEL CHAIR"
Merry X-Mas and a Happy New Year!
Why is Mitchell Welds still the Chairman of this Board ?
And why not???
Am? Pm?
Third world, how nice of the board to grant this.
Nothing like letting the bar owner plan an event properly in advance
I thought you were going to say now I can drink lots more and throw up in her ear!
What a Great Idea! Now if I'm on the floor dancing that last slow dance with my lady, instead of whispering sweet nothings in her ear, in anticipation of a night of love, instead, I'll have to be looking at my watch making sure we get to the door before that 2am witching hour.
Make sure you don't miss the last callfor alcohol. There is nothing worse than sobering up too early and realising that your 9 is in fact a 5 or 6.
Yeah but then there’s the decision of do I wake them up or chew my arm off.
except for waking up and finding their a 2 and your married
"…….and finding THEY'RE (i.e. they are) a 2 and YOU'RE (i.e. you are) married."
Or they are smart enough to know you meant 'they're' and 'you're'
or to use a full stop at the end of your sentence.
Hey 20:23, What is it with all of the apostrophes? [ 'they're' and 'you're' ]
That is why the Bloody Mary was invented.
