OK HB1608

Amends 37 O.S. 2011, Section 534 to redefine "beneficial interest" in a package store as any interest that benefits from sales or profits, except fees for consulting or other professional services.

Spouses of package store license holders or partners are not deemed to have a beneficial interest unless their name appears on the license.

Spouses of package store license holders may only hold a package store license, beer and wine license, or mixed beverage license under the Oklahoma Alcoholic Beverage Control Act.

Maintains existing restrictions that package stores must be separated from other retail premises and that retail sales must occur on licensed premises with off-premises deliveries prohibited.

Becomes effective November 1, 2015.
