It is unlawful for any place licensed to sell nonintoxicating beverages for on premise consumption to be located within 300 feet from any public school or church property primarily and regularly used for worship services and religious activities. If any public school or church shall be established within 300 feet of any place which sells nonintoxicating beverages for on-premise consumption after such place has been licensed, this shall not be a deterrent to the renewal of such license so long as there has not been a lapse of more than 60 days. The distance indicated in this section shall be measured from the nearest property line of such public school or church to the nearest public entrance door of the premises of any place licensed to sale such nonintoxicating beverages for on-premise consumption along the street right-of-way line providing the nearest direct route usually traveled by pedestrians between such points. For purposes of determining measured distance, property situated on the opposite side of the street from such public school or church shall be considered as if it were located on the same side of the street with the school or church. The above restrictions shall not affect premises already licensed as of the initial effective date of this section to sell nonintoxicating beverages for on-premise consumption or premises which may presently or in the future be licensed to sell nonintoxicating beverages for on-premise consumption even though a school or church is subsequently established within 300 feet of such license premises.
