Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. Article 3, Chapter 9, Title 61 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:
"Section 61-9-313. (A) In counties or municipalities where temporary permits are authorized to be issued pursuant to Section 61-5-180 in lieu of the retail permit fee required pursuant to Section 61-9-310, a retail dealer otherwise eligible for the on-premises consumption beer and wine permit may elect to apply for a special version of that permit which allows sales for on-premises consumption without regard to the restriction on the days or hours of sales provided in Sections 61-9-90, 61-9-100, 61-9-110, and 61-9-130. The biennial fee for this special on-premises consumption permit is eight hundred dollars. All other requirements for retail permits provided in Section 61-9-310 apply to the special permits authorized by this section.
(B) Permittees holding an on-premises consumption beer and wine permit allowed pursuant to Section 61-9-310 who are eligible to apply for the special permit provided in subsection (A) may exchange the current permit for the special permit upon payment of the fee differential prorated for the period remaining on the permit."
