Polk Nebraska Ordinance Sets Sunday Alcohol Sale Hours

An ordinance in Polk Nebraska regulates alcohol sales by time on Sundays and election days. It bans retail sale of alcohol between 1:00 AM and 8:00 AM on secular days and restricts Sunday hours for on premise and off premise liquor sales with exemptions for non profit licensees and voting day protections. The measure repeals conflicting ordinances and becomes effective upon passage, approval, and publication.
