The fees for applying to sell alcoholic beverages in Peachtree City have been adjusted to reflect changes in state procedures.
The City Council voted 5-0 on Dec. 20 to reduce the new license application fee from $200 to $150 and to cut the change in license application fee (for new locations or licensees) from $150 to $100. But because the city is now being billed $40 by the state for each criminal background check provided by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and other law enforcement, the city is adding a $50 fee to cover that cost plus the additional city staff time required for processing.
The annual license fees paid by establishments will not change.
