Healdsburg Liquor Licenses

Prepare the alcohol-related CUP questionnaire

Healdsburg’s application page lists a supplemental CUP questionnaire for alcohol-related uses. Use that material to describe the actual project and identify the applicable use-permit submission. The city’s business guidance recommends first checking with Planning that the zoning allows alcohol sales.

Review the purchase and operating plan

When acquiring an existing operation, collect the local permit as well as the license record. Healdsburg notes that CUP conditions can regulate hours, live music, noise, and alcohol service. Compare those conditions with your intended activities before adding entertainment or changing the schedule, and ask whether the approval needs review.

Questions for your Healdsburg project

• Is the alcohol-use questionnaire complete?
• What hours and activities are approved by the CUP?
• Does the proposed operation change any existing condition?

Match the state license to the business

California ABC issues the state license. Type 41 is for beer-and-wine eating places; Type 47 is for general eating places. Type 48 is for general public premises, where food service is not required and minors generally cannot enter and remain. Off-sale categories address take-home sales. Confirm the appropriate category and conditions for your operation.
