The Board met Monday morning via video conference to discuss the rule, entitled Emergency Rule 20-X-6-.19ER Emergency Curbside Sales Authorization, which was enacted at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. A new decision stands to expand to-go alcohol sales and edit the volume restrictions currently in place. Similar to package stores, restaurants and bars were previously able to sell drinks "to-go" at the height of the pandemic's lockdown. Meg Summers previously reported this morning that with the recent alarming surge in confirmed cases of COVID-19 across Alabama, the ABC Board's vote "will allow restaurants and bars to sell drinks to customers who do not wish to dine-in."
