The Commission must also be convinced that the plan will prevent minors from gaining access to alcoholic beverages and any portion of the licensed premises prohibited to minors.

(b)

If the special license will not be on any part of a premises, room, or area with an annual license issued by the Commission, the Commission must be convinced that the plan will prevent minors from gaining access to alcoholic beverages and any portion of the licensed premises the Commission prohibits to minors.

The Commission may deny or restrict a special license if the applicant has a serious violation history at events previously licensed with a special license within the past 36 months.

(11)

The Commission may refund the special license fee if the application is withdrawn by the applicant or denied by the Commission, or if the event does not take place because of circumstances beyond the licensees control, or if the Commission determines the applicant does not need a license for the event proposed in the application.

(12)

When the Commission approves a written plan under subsection (6)(a) of this rule, the licensee must follow that written plan. Failure to follow that written plan is a Category III violation.
