Proposed Legislation/Rules
These proposed rules allow a person to hold both an on-premise beer retailer license and a limited restaurant license and operate them on the same premises during certain periods of the day or night (sequentially but not concurrently). This is already allowed under current rule for full service restaurants and these proposed rules extend the allowance to limited restaurants.
Alcohol Server Training Program
In 1987, Utah became the second state in the country to require training for all on-premise alcohol servers. Ten states now have mandatory server training laws and six have voluntary programs.
Training for the responsible service of alcohol was not the government’s idea. Before 1987, Utah’s hospitality industry was already providing this training on a voluntary basis through programs developed by the National Restaurant Association and the American Hotel & Motel Association. The resulting legislation established a mandatory Alcohol Training and Education Seminar for employees of businesses that serve alcohol for consumption on the premises.
