(A) It shall be unlawful to sell at retail, deliver, give away, or dispense in any fashion in the village, any alcoholic liquor without first obtaining a local liquor license/permit pursuant to this chapter, for each location, place or premises where the retailer is located, or to do so in violation of the terms of such license/permit.
(B) Where two or more such locations, places or premises are under the same roof or at the same street address, a separate license/permit shall be obtained for each such location, place or premises, unless otherwise authorized by the Local Liquor Control Commissioner.
(C) The issuance to, or possession by, any person of a retail liquor dealer tax stamp issued for a current tax period by the United States Government or any of its agencies, shall constitute prima facie evidence that such person is subject to the provisions of this chapter.
(D) Within 15 days after obtaining a local liquor license permit pursuant to this chapter, the licensee shall, as applicable, obtain a similar liquor license required by the State of Illinois for the sale at retail of any alcoholic liquor. No alcoholic liquor may be purveyed by the licensee under a license/permit issued pursuant to this chapter until the applicable state license is obtained by the licensee and proof of same is provided to the Local Liquor Control Commissioner. The licensee must maintain its state license in good standing for the term of its local liquor license/permit.
(E) All licensees shall cause the license issued pursuant to this chapter, the similar state license, and the signage requirements set forth in § 110.30 below, to be framed and displayed at all times on the licensed premises in a conspicuous location, prominently visible to all patrons. Permits issued pursuant to this chapter shall be produced to the village upon demand.
