Overview: During the recent Vernon Town Council meeting, a primary topic of discussion was the renewal of inactive liquor licenses, which are now subject to new state regulations. These regulations mandate that such licenses must be activated, sold, or transferred by August 2027, or risk expiration. The council deliberated on the implications of a no vote on the licenses, which would not immediately revoke them but would serve as a caution for license holders to act swiftly. The council acknowledged the complexity surrounding the new law, which allows for a third extension if the license holders demonstrate “good cause,” such as engaging professionals to design necessary facilities and obtaining required permits. A roll call vote on the renewal of these licenses yielded mixed responses, highlighting the council’s divided stance on the matter.
