State Government Shutdown Would Halt Alcohol Deliveries
As you are likely aware, unresolved budget negotiations in Lansing may very likely lead to a shutdown of state government if an agreement is not reached by legislative leaders and the governor by September 30.
In the event that the government shuts down, all liquor licensees need to be advised that, as of Monday, the state will not allow any deliveries of beer, wine or distilled spirits by distributors.
Liquor licensees are advised to prepare as best as possible for this as soon as possible.
Founded in 1921, the Michigan Restaurant Association represents more than 4,500 Michigan foodservice establishments. The foodservice industry plays an integral role in Michigan’s economy, employing more than 436,000 people and creating more than $11.3 billion in total annual sales.
