(2)
Any license issued under KRS 243.020 to 243.670 may be revoked by the state
board if the licensee shall have violated any of the provisions of KRS Chapter 241,
243, or 244, or any rule or regulation of the board or of the Department of Revenue
relating to the regulation of the manufacture, sale, and transportation or taxation of
alcoholic beverages or if the licensee shall have violated or shall violate any Act of
Congress or any rule or regulation of any federal board, agency, or commission, or
any ordinance now, heretofore, or hereafter in effect relating to the regulation of the
manufacture, sale and transportation or taxation of intoxicating liquors or any rules
or regulations of any local alcoholic beverage authority or any similar body
heretofore in existence or authorized by the terms of KRS Chapters 241, 243, and
244 to be created, or if any clerk, agent, servant, or employee of any licensee shall
violate any of the laws, regulations, or ordinances above referred to, irrespective of
whether the licensee knew of or permitted the violation or whether the violation was
committed in disobedience of his instructions, or any license may be revoked for
any cause which the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board in the exercise of its sound
discretion deems sufficient. A license may be revoked for any of the reasons for
which the administrator would have been required to refuse a license if the facts had
been known.
If it is determined that an applicant for a license or license renewal under the
provisions of this chapter is a delinquent taxpayer as defined in KRS 131.1815, the
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control may refuse to issue or renew the license
to the applicant.
