§ 116.048 CAUSES FOR REFUSAL TO ISSUE OR RENEW LICENSE; SUSPENSION OR REVOCATION OF LICENSE.
   (A)   Causes for refusal to issue or renew a city license and for suspension or revocation of a city license shall be the same as provided for state licenses according to KRS 243.450, 243.500, as well as violation of any city ordinance regarding alcoholic beverage licensing, sales, the administration of licenses, or a licensee allowing conduct on the licensed premises which is prohibited by this chapter.
   (B)   No license to sell alcoholic beverages shall be granted or renewed to any person or other entity delinquent in the payment of any taxes or fees due the city at the time of issuing the license; nor shall any license be granted or renewed to sell upon any premises or property, owned and occupied by the licensee, upon which there are any delinquent taxes or fees due the city. If a licensee becomes delinquent in the payment of any taxes or any fees due the city at any time during the license period, the license to sell alcoholic beverages shall be subject to revocation or suspension. The CABC may, in his or her discretion, approve a license to sell after receiving from the City Clerk, a written statement to the effect that the applicant for the license has paid the indebtedness represented by the unpaid and delinquent taxes or fees. This section shall apply only to taxes and fees which are due and payable by the licensee.
   (C)   No quota retail package license shall be issued for any premises unless the applicant certifies under oath that 90% of the total projected gross receipts from sale made at the licensed premises during the 12-month period following the issuance of the license shall consist of the projected gross receipts from sales of alcoholic beverages. No quota retail package license shall be renewed for any premises unless 90% of its gross receipts from sales for the immediate past month and the immediate past 12 months have been derived from the sale of alcoholic beverages.
   (D)   Appeals may be taken from decisions of the CABC to the State Alcoholic Beverage Control Board according to the provisions of KRS 241.200 and 243.550.
