A bill to amend 1998 PA 58, entitled “Michigan liquor control code of 1998,” by amending section 513 (MCL 436.1513), as amended by 2024 PA 115.
To permit the issuance of licenses for the sale of alcoholic liquor at various university-owned locations. These locations include conference centers, hotels, restaurants, golf course clubhouses, baseball stadiums, and additional specified facilities on lands owned by Michigan universities. The amendment also specifies facilities like the Arts and Cultural Center Complex at Macomb Community College, Meadow Brook Hall, and the John G. Kulhavi Events Center at Central Michigan University, highlighting the broad scope of university-affiliated premises eligible for liquor licenses. Licenses are subject to conditions like leasing land at fair market value and designating areas for development by the universities' governing boards, with specific conditions for baseball stadiums and other premises to ensure non-transferability of licenses and the payment of designated fees.
