SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Alcoholic beverage control; summary suspension of licenses. Authorizes the ABC Board to summarily suspend any license other than a brewery license, in which case the Board may impose penalties as provided in § 4.1-227, without a hearing simultaneously with the institution of proceedings for a hearing, if it finds that there is a substantial danger to the public health or safety which warrants this action. Institution of proceedings for a hearing shall be provided simultaneously with the summary suspension. The hearing shall be scheduled within a reasonable time of the date of the summary suspension, not to exceed 96 hours. This power is similar to that enjoyed by regulatory boards at the Department of Health Professions.
