The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board announced the return of more than $1.5 million in licensing fees to 687 municipalities, including $1,300 in fees to communities in Jefferson County on Thursday.
Twice a year, as required by law, the PLCB returns liquor license fees paid by PLCB-approved licensees to the municipalities that are home to those licenses. Municipalities have flexibility in spending the returned license fees to meet local needs.
Licensees pay liquor license fees ranging from $125 to $700, depending on the type of license and the population of the municipality in which the license is located, as part of the annual license renewal or validation process, as well as in conjunction with approval of certain new applications.
The current dispersal period represents fees paid from Aug. 1, 2020, to Jan. 31, 2021.
In Jefferson County, Brookville received $400.00, Punxsutawney received $300 while Brockway, Reynoldsville and Snyder Township each received $200.
