Flowood changes local alcohol hours to match state rule: restaurants and hotels may sell beer 10 a.m.–midnight
Summary
The Board adopted ordinances amending the Retail Sale of Beer and the Qualified Resort Area Ordinance to permit beer sales by restaurants and hotels between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 midnight daily, aligning local code with Mississippi Department of Revenue changes.
The Board held public hearings and adopted two ordinances amending local alcohol rules to conform with a Mississippi Department of Revenue change on hours for resort-area on‑premises permittees. The first ordinance amends the Amended and Restated Ordinance Relating to the Retail Sale of Beer to permit restaurants and hotels to sell beer between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 midnight Monday through Sunday.
The Board also amended the Qualified Resort Area Ordinance to permit qualified resort-area hotels and restaurants to sell alcoholic beverages between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 midnight daily. Both amendments were adopted after the board confirmed hearing prerequisites and recorded no public opposition in the minutes.
