Amended Rule/Section: CL-2 License Applications (Country Liquor Wholesale)
Type of Change: Administrative Circular – Moratorium on New Licenses
What Changed: The Commissioner of State Excise issued a circular directing that no new applications for CL-2 pattern licenses (Country Liquor wholesale licenses) shall be accepted for the licensing year 1986-87. This represents a temporary freeze on the issuance of fresh CL-2 licenses. The previous practice allowed acceptance and processing of new CL-2 license applications during the regular licensing cycle. This circular effectively suspends that process for the specified year, likely due to policy review, market saturation concerns, or administrative reorganization of the country liquor wholesale distribution system.
