Welcome to the Town of Palmer Lake liquor licensing process. The Town Clerk's Office is available to assist you with the application process but cannot provide legal advice; therefore, an applicant may want to consult an attorney for any legal questions concerning the application.
The Colorado Legislature has determined that the issuance and supervision of liquor licenses shall be closely regulated. The Board of Trustees of the Town of Palmer Lake is the "Local Licensing Authority" for all licenses issued within the Town and is thus charged with carrying out these State-delegated duties.
New Applications
New applications are approved locally and by the State. Special event liquor permits, tasting permits, transfers of ownership, and annual renewal applications are approved locally. The Town of Palmer Lake Board of Trustees act as the Local Liquor Licensing Authority. The most current applications can be downloaded directly from the Colorado Department of Revenue. https://sbg.colorado.gov/liquor
Hearings
Hearings are conducted, as needed, for new licenses and possible suspension or revocation of a license in the Town Hall and coordinated with the Town Clerk.
Liquor Law
It is your responsibility to be in compliance with liquor laws, rules and regulations. https://sbg.colorado.gov/liquor-enforcement-laws-rules-regulations
