Operative words

WHEREAS, noncompliance by bars and other vendors licensed to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises is suspected throughout the State to such a degree as to make individualized enforcement efforts impractical and insufficient at this time; NOW, THEREFORE... I order the following: 1. All vendors licensed to sell alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises who derive more than 50% of gross revenue from such sales of alcoholic beverages shall suspend such sales of alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises. Such vendors may continue to sell alcoholic beverages in sealed containers for consumption off the premises in accordance with Executive Order 20-71, Sections 1 and 2.

Enforcement

DBPR Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco license suspension (emergency suspensions were issued against licensees in Orange, Leon, Brevard, Lee and Hillsborough Counties in July-Sept. 2020 per DBPR releases)
