§ 653. Hearings; bureau review; appeal
1. Hearing. The municipal officers or, in the case of unincorporated places, the county commissioners of the county in which the unincorporated
place is located, shall hold a public hearing for the consideration of applications for new on-premise licenses and applications for transfer of location of existing on-premise licenses. The municipal officers or county commissioners may hold a public hearing for the consideration of requests
for renewal of licenses, except that when an applicant has held a license for the prior 5 years and a complaint has not been filed against the applicant within that time, the applicant may request a waiver of the hearing.
A. The bureau shall prepare and supply application forms. [1993, c.730, §27(amd).]
B. The municipal officers or the county commissioners, as the case may be, shall provide public notice of any hearing held under this section by causing a notice, at the applicant’s prepaid expense, stating the name and place of hearing, to appear on at least 3 consecutive
days before the date of hearing in a daily newspaper having general circulation in the municipality where the premises are located or
one week before the date of the hearing in a weekly newspaper having general circulation in the municipality where the premises are
located. [1995, c.140, §4 (amd).]
C. If the municipal officers or the county commissioners, as the case may be, fail to take final action on an application for a new onpremise license, for transfer of the location of an existing on-premise license or for renewal of an on-premise license within 60 days of
the filing of an application, the application is deemed approved and ready for action by the bureau. For purposes of this paragraph, the
date of filing of the application is the date the application is received by the municipal officers or county commissioners. This paragraph applies to all applications pending before municipal officers or county commissioners as of the effective date of this paragraph as
well as all applications filed on or after the effective date of this paragraph. This paragraph applies to an existing on-premise license
that has been extended pending renewal. The municipal officers or the county commissioners shall take final action on an on-premise
license that has been extended pending renewal with 120 days of the filing of the application. [1999, c589, §1 (amd).]
2. Findings. In granting or denying an application, the municipal officers or the county commissioners shall indicate the reasons for their decision

C. Conditions of record such as waste disposal violations, health or safety violation or repeated parking or traffic violations on or in the
vicinity of the licensed premises and caused by persons patronizing or employed by the licensed premises or other such conditions
caused by persons patronizing or employed by the licensed premises that unreasonably disturb, interfere with or affect the ability of
persons or businesses residing or located in the vicinity of the licensed premises to use their property in a reasonable manner; [1993,
c.730, §27 (amd).]
D. Repeated incidents of record of breaches of the peace, disorderly conduct, vandalism or other violations of law on or in the vicinity of

of section 601. [1989, c.592, §4 (new).]
[1993, c730, §27 (amd).]
3. Appeal to bureau. Any applicant aggrieved by the decision of the municipal officers or county commissioners under this section may appeal to
the bureau within 15 days of the receipt of the written decision of the municipal officers or county commissioners. The bureau shall hold a public hearing in the city, town or unincorporated place where the premises are situated. In acting on such an appeal, the bureau may consider all licensure requirements and findings referred to in subsection 2.
A. [1993, c.730, §27 (rp).]
4. No license to person who moved to obtain a license. (REPEALED)
