What changed in the latest version
52 added · 30 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of SB 191 allows the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board in Alabama to own real estate specifically for warehouses, a capability not permitted under current law. This means the board can now directly manage its storage facilities for alcoholic beverages without relying on external providers. This change is significant as it aims to streamline operations and potentially improve efficiency within the board's distribution processes. The law will take effect on June 1, 2024.
