SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
The Virginia Wine Board. Establishes the Virginia Wine Board within the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, and the Virginia Wine Promotion Fund. The Board is composed of the Commissioner of Agriculture and Consumer Services and nine gubernatorial-appointed citizens who represent grape growers and owners or operators of wineries or farm wineries. Among its powers and duties, the Board can contract for research services to improve viticultural and enological practices in Virginia, enter into contracts with private and public entities to market, advertise and promote the industry, and engage in revenue-producing activities. The Fund consists of general fund appropriations, fees from services rendered, and payments received for products, equipment or goods supplied. Contracts for advertising, marketing, or publishing that are entered into by the Board are exempted from certain provisions of the Virginia Public Procurement Act. The bill repeals the Virginia Winegrowers Advisory Board and the Winegrowers Productivity Fund and transfers any moneys remaining in the Winegrowers Productivity Fund to the new Virginia Wine Promotion Fund. This bill is identical to SB 310.
