[Adopted 4-10-2001 by Ord. No. 2182]
Any applicant who desires to purchase a liquor license and then
transfer it into the Municipality of Monroeville or acquire a liquor
license for the economic development must first submit to the Municipality
of Monroeville (the receiving Municipality) a request for approval
of the intermunicipal transfer of the license or issuance of an economic
development license.
Said request shall be accompanied with an application fee in
the amount of $500; a copy of said application is attached hereto
marked Exhibit No. A and made part of this article.
Said application must be received at least 30 days prior to
any public hearing held by the Municipality for review and comment
on said transfer or issuance.
Appended to the application shall be a complete and executed
copy of the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board application submitted
to the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, which application shall
be made part of the review by the Municipality.
The Municipality of Monroeville shall, within 45 days of the
request for approval, hold a public hearing pursuant to public notice
concerning the request for approval and render a decision, by resolution,
to approve or disapprove the applicant's request for intermunicipal
transfer of a liquor license or the issuance of a license for economic
development.
The Municipality shall approve the request unless it finds that
in doing so it would adversely affect the welfare, health, peace and
morals of the Municipality or its residents.
A decision by the Municipality of Monroeville to deny the request
may be appealed to the Court of Common Pleas in the county in which
the Municipality is located.
