California Form Abc 247 PDF Details

In the State of California, individuals seeking to operate premises that sell alcoholic beverages face a detailed and cautious regulatory environment, as highlighted by the usage of the ABC-247 form, a critical document under the jurisdiction of the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. This form serves a pivotal function in ensuring that businesses planning to sell alcohol are considerate of their residential neighbors, an aspect underscored by Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr.'s administration. Applicants are required to meticulously list all residences located within 100 feet of their proposed premises or associated parking lot, a task that underscores the importance the state places on community well-being and the prevention of disturbances caused by commercial activities. This distance measurement is critical as it directly influences the approval process - a reflection of Rule 61.4 of the California Code of Regulations, which aims to prevent the issuance of retail alcohol licenses to premises too close to residential areas unless it can be convincingly demonstrated that the operation will not disrupt the quiet enjoyment of nearby residents. Such stipulations reveal the state's balanced approach towards accommodating business interests while protecting residential peace, a guiding principle that ensures every license application is evaluated with a comprehensive understanding of its potential community impact. The intentional design of the ABC-247 form, which includes a declaration against providing false information under penalty of application denial or license revocation, further emphasizes the seriousness with which the state views these considerations.
