Utah Criticized For Limiting Liquor Licenses

by Whitney Evans, KCPW-FM
August 12, 2011

Utah's hospitality and tourism industry is suing the state for outlawing Happy Hour and refusing to increase the number of liquor licenses. Currently, there are no liquor licenses left in the state for bars, clubs, hotels or music venues. Based on Utah's quota system, it could be two years before one is available.
