Ann Arbor OKs New Liquor License Fees

Changes to liquor license fees have been approved by the Ann Arbor city council in action taken at its Oct. 7, 2013 meeting. Some fees are being eliminated – those related to licenses for which the state of Michigan doesn’t require local review. And the remaining license fee schedule is being revised to reflect actual costs:

  • on-premise liquor license annual renewal – $90 (increase from $50)
  • new liquor license – $600 (reduction from $2,500)
  • new liquor license application fee – $150 (increase from $100)
  • new DDA district license – $600 (reduction from $1,000)

This brief was filed from the city council’s chambers on the second floor of city hall, located at 301 E. Huron. A more detailed report will follow: [link]
