(KNZA)--Jackson County voters will decide during the November general election whether to allow businesses to sell liquor-by- the drink without having also to sell food.
The Jackson County Commission recently approved a resolution placing the issue on November 3rd ballot at the request of Holton resident Sean Willcott, who plans to open a microbrewery in Holton.
Currently, a business must receive 30 percent of its sales from food in order to sell liquor by the drink.
Jackson County voters approved the county's current liquor-by the- drink law in 2004.
According to the Kansas Department of Revenue, 35 of the state's 105 counties do not require a businesses to sell food in order to sell liquor-by-the-drink.
