Liquor reform delays hit Delaware County reps
In Harrisburg two Delaware County representatives clash with a Senate House conference committee over liquor control reform. Rep Steve Freind of Haverford protests the removal of his amendment for a state seal on all Pennsylvania liquor bottles. Rep Nick Micozzie of Upper Darby supports a drafting error delaying a bill that could let a municipality split from a parent town remain dry. Senate Bill 518 is involved.

Minors Bill Edges Through As Seals Debate Enters Stage
Harold Ellis reports in Harrisburg that Micozzie’s amendment on minor access to venues with liquor licenses survives. Critics say state seal controls will be costly and ineffective against liquor smuggling, noting enforcement can proceed without seals with new equipment from the LCB. The conference committee removed Micozzie’s split municipality provision from SB 518.
