Sec. 30-37a. Nonprofit public museum permit. (a) A nonprofit public museum
permit shall allow the retail sale of alcoholic liquor by a nonprofit public museum only
on land and in buildings that are subject to the care, custody and control of its board of
trustees to be consumed on its premises by its patrons on any day on which such nonprofit
public museum is open to visitors from the general public. Proceeds derived from such
sales, except for reasonable operating costs, shall be used in furtherance of the charitable,
literary and educational activities of such nonprofit public museum. Sections 30-9 to
30-13, inclusive, and 30-91, insofar as said sections refer to local regulations of sales,
shall not apply to such permit. The annual fee for a nonprofit public museum permit
shall be two hundred dollars.

(b); P.A. 96-7 amended Subsec. (b) to delete the requirement that each nonprofit public museum have over one hundred thousand square feet for public display purposes.
