outside the limits of any such | ||||||
10 | city, village or incorporated town the
county board shall have | ||||||
11 | the power by general ordinance or resolution to
determine the | ||||||
12 | number, kind and classification of licenses, for sale at
retail | ||||||
13 | of alcoholic liquor not inconsistent with this Act and the | ||||||
14 | amount
of the local licensee fees to be paid for the various | ||||||
15 | kinds of licenses to
be issued in their political subdivision, | ||||||
16 | except those issued to the
specific non-beverage users exempt | ||||||
17 | from payment of license fees under
Section 5-3 which shall be | ||||||
18 | issued without payment of
any local license fees, and the | ||||||
19 | manner of distribution of such fees after
their collection; to | ||||||
20 | regulate or prohibit the presence of persons under
the age of | ||||||
21 | 21 on the premises of licensed retail establishments of various
| ||||||
22 | kinds and classifications where alcoholic liquor is drawn, | ||||||
23 | poured, mixed or

| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | mixing any alcoholic
liquor as an employee of any retail | ||||||
2 | licensee; and to prohibit any minor
from at any time attending | ||||||
3 | any bar and from drawing, pouring or mixing any
alcoholic | ||||||
4 | liquor in any licensed retail premises; and to establish such
| ||||||
5 | further regulations and restrictions upon the issuance of and | ||||||
6 | operations
under local licenses not inconsistent with law as | ||||||
7 | the public good and
convenience may require; and to provide | ||||||
8 | penalties for the violation of
regulations and restrictions, | ||||||
9 | including those made by county boards,
relative to operation | ||||||
10 | under local licenses; provided, however, that in the
exercise | ||||||
11 | of any of the powers granted in this section, the issuance of | ||||||
12 | such
licenses shall not be prohibited except for reasons | ||||||
13 | specifically enumerated
in Sections 6-2, 6-11, 6-12 and 6-25 of | ||||||
14 | this Act.
| ||||||
15 | However, in any municipality with a population exceeding | ||||||
16 | 1,000,000 that
has adopted the form of government authorized | ||||||
17 | under "An Act concerning cities,
villages, and incorporated | ||||||
18 | towns, and to repeal certain Acts herein named",
approved | ||||||
19 | August 15, 1941, as amended, no person shall be granted any | ||||||

or privilege to sell alcoholic liquors between the | ||||||
21 | hours of two o'clock
a.m. and seven o'clock a.m. on week days | ||||||
22 | nor between the hours of three
o'clock a.m. and twelve o'clock | ||||||
23 | noon on Sundays unless such person has given
at least 14 days | ||||||
24 | prior written notice to the alderman of the ward in which
such | ||||||
25 | person's licensed premises are located stating his intention to | ||||||
26 | make
application for such license or privilege and unless | ||||||
27 | evidence confirming
service of such written notice is included
| ||||||
28 | in such application. Any license or privilege granted in | ||||||
29 | violation of this
paragraph shall be null and void.
| ||||||
30 | Notwithstanding any provision in this Section to the | ||||||
31 | contrary, in addition to the local liquor control commissioner, | ||||||
32 | the President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners may | ||||||
33 | authorize the sale of alcoholic liquor under a special event | ||||||
34 | retailer's license, for a duration not to exceed one day, on |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | property that is located within the boundaries of a | ||||||
2 | municipality if (1) the property is located within a forest | ||||||
3 | preserve district that is located within Cook County, (2) the | ||||||
4 | President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners notifies | ||||||
5 | the local liquor control commissioner of the municipality | ||||||
6 | within 7 days after receiving an application to sell alcoholic | ||||||
7 | liquor under a special event retailer's license on the property | ||||||
8 | that he or she has received the application, (3) the President | ||||||
9 | of the Cook County Board of Commissioners notifies the local | ||||||
10 | liquor control commissioner of the municipality of his or her | ||||||
11 | intent to authorize the sale of alcoholic liquor under a | ||||||
12 | special event retailer's license at least 14 days before | ||||||
13 | authorizing that sale of alcoholic liquor, and (4) the local | ||||||
14 | liquor control commissioner of the municipality delegates the | ||||||
15 | authority to issue the one-day special event retailer's license | ||||||
16 | to the President of the Cook County Board of Commissioners for | ||||||
17 | this limited purpose. If the President of the Cook County Board | ||||||
18 | of Commissioners authorizes the sale of alcoholic liquor under | ||||||
19 | a special event retailer's license, the local liquor control | ||||||
20 | commissioner for the territory covered by the license shall | ||||||
21 | have the same powers and duties under this Act as if the local | ||||||
22 | liquor control commissioner had authorized the sale of | ||||||
23 | alcoholic liquor.
