A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT to authorize community colleges to allow alcohol sales at stadiums, athletic facilities, and arenas located on school property.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
SECTION 1.  G.S. 18B‑1006(a)(10) reads as rewritten:
"(10)	A stadium, athletic facility, or arena on the campus or property of a public college or university, if the Board of Trustees of the public college or university has voted to allow the issuance of permits for use at that stadium, athletic facility, or arena. If a Board of Trustees votes to allow the issuance of permits in accordance with this subdivision, the Board of Trustees shall provide written notice to the Commission that it has voted to allow the issuance of permits. Any permit described in G.S. 18B‑1001, 18B‑1002(a)(2), or 18B‑1002(a)(5) may be issued pursuant to this subdivision to applicants meeting the requirements for the requested permit. Notwithstanding the issuance of a mixed beverages permit pursuant to G.S. 18B‑1001(10), this subdivision does not authorize the sale of mixed beverages when the stadium, athletic facility, or arena is being used for a sports event sponsored by the public college or university. This subdivision does not apply to any sales authorized under subdivisions (1) through (8) of this subsection. For purposes of this subdivision, the premises of a stadium, athletic facility, or arena shall include any area that meets all of the following requirements:
a.	Is within 500 feet of the furthest exterior building wall, perimeter fence, or permanent fixed perimeter.
b.	Is designated by the stadium, athletic facility, or arena in a map or written description that clearly defines the boundary of the area, and that map or written description is included in the permit application.
c.	Can be designated in a manner that enables the stadium, athletic facility, or arena to ensure compliance with the provisions of this Chapter."
SECTION 2.  This act is effective when it becomes law.
