The Texas
Alcoholic Beverage Commission or Administrator may cancel a permit if
it finds that the permittee has not paid a fee levied under this
section. A permittee who sells an alcoholic beverage without
first having paid a fee levied under this section commits a
misdemeanor punishable by a fine of not less than $10 nor more than
$200.00.
|
Renewal
for Beer License/permit
|
Section 61.36 of
the Alcoholic Beverage Code provides, in part, that the Bell County
Commissioners' Court (all counties) may levy and collect a fee equal
to one-half the state fee for each license, except a temporary or
agent's beer license, issued for premises located within Bell County.
|
Holders of beer
licenses in Bell County must renew their licenses at the Tax
Assessor-Collector's Office; 550 E. 2nd Avenue, Belton,
Texas 76513. After accepting the correct fee for original
or renewal licenses we will complete the three (3) part Temporary
Receipt indicating fees and surcharges paid, date fees received, trade
name, owner's name, location, mail address, permit or license type,
permit or license number and expiration date.
|
Surcharges on beer
permits are subject to change each year, depending on the anticipated
number of licenses/permits issued versus the T.A.B.C.'s appropriation.
The Commission determines the amount of the surcharge each summer and
the Licensing Department notifies this office each year of the changes
by supplying a new surcharge table. The surcharges on all licenses
and permits with an issue date of September 1, 2011 or later are:
