ASSEMBLY COMMERCE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
                COMMITTEE

                          STATEMENT TO

                     ASSEMBLY, No. 5554

       STATE OF NEW JERSEY
                         DATED: DECEMBER 6, 2021

          The Assembly Commerce and Economic Development Committee
      reports favorably Assembly Bill No. A5554.
          This bill would authorize a municipality to permit people to
      consume alcoholic beverages outdoors in an “open container area.”
      The bill defines “open container area” as a portion of a municipality or
      an area encompassing the entire municipality in which pedestrians are
      permitted to carry and consume open containers of alcoholic beverages
      outdoors.
          The bill requires a municipal governing body to hold a public
      hearing on the merits of establishing an open container area prior to a
      municipality adopting an ordinance. The sale of alcoholic beverages
      for consumption in an open container area would be subject to
      statutory law, rules and regulations promulgated by the director, and
      municipal ordinances.
          As reported by the committee, this bill is identical to Senate Bill
      No. 2921, which was also amended and reported by the committee on
      this date.
