Adds the city of Blaine to the list of Minnesota cities (alongside Anoka, Shakopee, and Stillwater) authorized to issue social district licenses to on-sale liquor license holders

Social district licenses allow patrons to consume alcoholic beverages purchased from participating bars/restaurants within a designated outdoor district area, though sales and service must occur on the licensed premises

Containers used in social districts must be non-glass, hold no more than 16 fluid ounces, identify the selling establishment, display a district logo, and include "Drink Responsibly - Be 21"

Cities must designate district boundaries by ordinance, post signage, establish management plans, and specify permitted hours and days for consumption

Effective after August 31, 2025, contingent upon approval by the Blaine City Council
