Alcohol Permit Information

Process and Procedures

The City Secretary provides certification on all TABC pre-qualification packets at no charge.
 
A City issued Alcoholic Beverage Permit is required upon issuance of a TABC permit. Please purchase your City permit no later than 30 days after the issuance of the TABC permit.

Visit the TABC website for information on new permits or for existing permit renewals.  TABC is now using an online Alcohol Industry Management System (AIMS) for licenses and permits. 

Permit Types and Fees:

BQ (Beer and Wine Off Premise) - Fee is equal to one-half the TABC permit fee and has a two-year term that matches the TABC permit. The current two-year City fee is $60.

BG (Beer and Wine On Premise) - Fee is equal to one-half the TABC permit fee and has a two-year term that matches the TABC permit.  The current two-year City fee is $175.

MB (Mixed Beverages with Food & Beverage Certificate) - No fee for the initial two-year permit . The first renewal fee is $1,125 (1/4 of the TABC fee) for two-years and the second renewal fee is $1,500 (1/2 of the TABC fee) for two-years. At the third renewal and for all future renewals, the cost is $750 for two-years, equal to one-half the TABC permit fee.  The City may not collect fees for the first 3-years of the permit.

All City issued permits will expire the same date as the TABC permit.
