How to read these records

The license

One record per license number. Takeout, delivery and storage permits carry the number of the license they depend on and are shown on the same record. “(city)” or “(county)” says which local authority licenses the business alongside the state.

Expiration and renewal

The expiration date is the state file's. “Renewal received” means the Division has the renewal and is processing it or waiting for the fee. A license listed as expired may still be valid while a renewal filed in time is pending with the local authority — the state says so itself.

Compliance checks

In a compliance check, an underage person working with the Division or a police department tries to buy alcohol. “Pass” means the sale was refused; “Fail” means it was made. The state's file gives a business name and an address but no license number. This site shows a check on a record only when the address points to a single license and the name agrees. A record without checks is not a record never checked: the check may simply not have matched. A failed check is one event on one day; what followed is not in the file.

What is not here

Owners and associated persons, special event and festival permits, violations and penalties, and local records.
