 AN ACT to credit days to retail on-premises licensees that were unable

 repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary,
 2 the state liquor authority is authorized to grant a license credit to
 3 any on-premises licensee and any manufacturing licensee with on-premises
 4 retail privileges that are licensed pursuant to the alcoholic beverage
 5 control law to receive a credit to the next renewal of their license on
 6 a pro-rata basis for each inactive day, up to a maximum of three hundred
 7 sixty-five days. An inactive day shall mean each day between March 7,
 8 2020 and March 7, 2021 that, due to the COVID-19 pandemic or the govern-
 9 ment response to the pandemic, the licensee was closed, or ceased all
 10 on-premises retail business functions that require a license under the
 11 alcoholic beverage control law. The on-premises licensee and any manu-
 12 facturing licensee with on-premises retail privileges shall document to
 13 the state liquor authority, on a form provided by the authority, the
 14 number of inactive days, up to a maximum of three hundred sixty-five
 15 days, that they are claiming for a credit to be added to their next
 16 retail on-premise license renewal.
 17 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately and shall expire and be
 18 deemed repealed January 1, 2028.
