Council adopts broad amendments to Chamblee alcohol ordinance on second reading
Summary
The Chamblee City Council unanimously approved amendments to Chapter 6 (Alcoholic Beverages), updating definitions, records requirements, hours of sale, retail and on-premises rules, and other sections during a second-reading vote.
The Chamblee City Council voted unanimously on May 19 to adopt amendments to Chapter 6 of the city code governing alcoholic beverages. The city attorney read the ordinance headings and listed numerous sections and articles to be amended, and a council member moved to approve the changes "as read by the city attorney."
The ordinance revises definitions, purchase-and-sale record requirements, notice and decision procedures, hours of sale, retail package-sale rules for distilled spirits, wine and malt beverages, and rules for on-premises service including restaurants, hotels and private clubs. The city attorney introduced the item, stating, "This is an ordinance to amend the code of ordinances of the city of Chamblee, Georgia, chapter 6, alcoholic beverages, and for all other lawful purposes."
Council members voted without recorded dissent. The ordinance passed on its second reading by unanimous vote; council did not record individual vote tallies in the transcript. The council treated the item as a second reading with headings-only presentation and proceeded immediately to adoption.
