This bill would allow Tony's Pizzeria to be eligible to obtain a

exceptions have been made for certain establishments that do not pose
problems for the place of worship, or the surrounding neighborhood.
This bill would exempt Tony's Pizzeria in Kingston from this
provision of law thereby allowing sale and consumption of alcohol in
the restaurant.
