Delaware Legislature Raises Bev/Al License Fees, Rejects Excise Tax Hike
2009 July 5
The Delaware General Assembly voted to double licensing fees for bev/al vendors, and approved an additional fee for those who wish to remain open on Sunday, the second-busiest shopping day of the week.
The state finance department estimates the levies will raise an additional $600,000 a year.
But the legislators rejected a call to raise taxes on per-bottle and per-can sales.
