The regulations set forth for distribution licensees by the State
of New Jersey, Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control, are herewith
adopted by the Township of Winslow.
Every license shall be exposed to public view in a conspicuous
place in the establishment licensed, and any omission so to do shall
be presumptive evidence that the place where alcoholic beverages are
being sold is unlicensed.
A.
Not more than twenty-five (25) plenary retail consumption licenses
and not more than four (4) plenary retail distribution licenses shall
be issued and outstanding at the same time in the Township of Winslow,
but this limitation shall not prevent the renewal of plenary retail
consumption licenses presently outstanding or the person-to-person
transfer of such licenses and the renewal of licenses so transferred.
B.
No plenary retail consumption or plenary retail distribution license
shall hereafter be granted for or transferred to premises within two
thousand (2,000) feet of premises for which a license of either type
is then outstanding. This distance-between-premises provision shall
not prevent the renewal or person-to-person transfer of licenses for
premises now licensed. The two-thousand-foot distance shall be measured
in the normal way that a pedestrian would properly walk from the nearest
entrance of the licensed premises to the nearest entrance of the premises
sought to be licensed.
All licensed establishments shall be kept clean and sanitary
and subject to the rules and regulations of the Board of Health of
this municipality.
No licensee shall sell, serve or deliver, or allow, permit or
suffer the service or delivery of, any alcoholic beverages, directly
or indirectly, to any persons under the age of twenty-one (21) years,

by any such person upon the licensed premises.[1]
