MI HB6130

Allows Michigan cities to issue additional public on-premises liquor licenses beyond standard quota limits for businesses in redevelopment project areas or designated development districts engaged in dining, entertainment, or recreation activities.

Requires businesses in city redevelopment areas to operate dining, entertainment, or recreation activities at least 5 days per week and remain open to the public minimum 10 hours per day, 5 days per week.

Sets investment thresholds for license eligibility: redevelopment project areas must have at least $50,000,000 total investment (cities 50,000+ population) or $1,000,000 per 1,000 residents (cities under 50,000), with commercial investment comprising at least 25% of total investment.

Requires businesses in designated development districts to have $75,000 minimum rehabilitation costs over 5 years and $200,000 total public and private investment, with minimum seating capacity reduced from 50 to 25 persons.

Sets enhanced license fee at $20,000 and prohibits license transfers to other locations; if licensee closes, local government may approve replacement applicant meeting requirements without needing to demonstrate prior investment thresholds.
