MI SB0100

Beer and wine sales are allowed from 7 a.m. Sunday through 2 a.m. Monday, with counties, cities, villages, or townships able to prohibit sales between 7 a.m. and noon on Sunday or between 7 a.m. Sunday and 2 a.m. Monday by majority legislative vote or voter referendum.

Spirits and mixed spirit drinks may be sold after 7 a.m. on Sunday at on-premises establishments where food and services comprise at least 50% of gross receipts, and at off-premises retail establishments, unless the county prohibits such sales by resolution or voter referendum.

Referenda on prohibiting Sunday alcohol sales require a petition signed by 35% of votes cast in the previous election (for beer and wine) or 8% of votes cast (for spirits), must be filed at least 60 days before a regular state election, and cannot be held more than once every 4 years.

Motorsports entertainment complexes with at least 70,000 fixed seats, 4+ scheduled annual events, food and beverage service, tourism promotion, and motorsports exhibitions are exempt from split county prohibitions; the liquor commission determines their sales hours if one county prohibits and another allows Sunday sales.

Licensees selling alcohol between 7 a.m. and noon on Sunday must obtain a permit and pay an annual $160 fee; existing local prohibitions adopted before this act remain in effect; all alcoholic liquor sales remain prohibited between 2 a.m. and 7 a.m. daily.
