Corporation, LLC, & Partnership Changes
Change of Officers or Owners
Before a liquor license is issued to a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership, the City of Rifle conducts a background investigation on individuals associated with the applicant to make sure those individuals are of good moral character. Those associated individuals are all general partners of a partnership, and limited partners owning 10% (or more) of a partnership; all officers and directors of a corporation, and stockholders of a corporation owning 10% (or more) of the stock of such corporation; and all limited liability company managing members, and officers or other limited liability company members with a 10% (or more) ownership interest in such company.
Therefore, whenever any of those individuals are replaced by other persons, the licensee must report those changes within 30 days of the change.
