"BLOODY MARY" LAW <br />In cities where Sunday on -sale has been authorized by voters, a restaurant, club, bowling center or <br />hotel (with a seating capacity of at least 30 persons) that holds an on -sale intoxicating liquor license <br />and a Sunday license may now serve intoxicating liquor with food on Sundays as early as 8:00 AM. <br />Previously, no alcohol could be served by an establishment prior to 10:00 AM on Sunday. How a city <br />must proceed depends on whether it wishes to allow the earlier start time and whether it has set <br />specific hours of Sunday on -sale service by ordinance. <br />If a city has explicitly stated hours of Sunday on -sale liquor service in ordinance and wishes to allow <br />Sunday sales as early as 8:00, it will have to change the ordinance. If the city doesn't wish to change <br />the specific hours set in ordinance, the city need not change them and businesses must continue to <br />follow the ordinance. <br />If the city has not set hours of Sunday on -sale in ordinance or simply defers to state law on the <br />matter, it need not change its ordinance now unless it wants to set a start time other than 8:00 AM. <br />Edward S.
