To Whom it Will Concern:
The Virginia Restaurant Lodging and Travel Association (VRLTA) was founded to provide a single unified voice for Virginia’s restaurant, hotel-lodging, travel, and hospitality supplier industries. Our mission is to further advocate on behalf of the legislative priorities and interests of Virginia's restaurants, hotels, attractions, and destinations to Virginia's General Assembly and regulatory agencies.
VRLTA supports the proposed change to 3 VAC-5-30-40 to repeal the outdated requirement to impose minimum deposit requirements for kegs.
If you have any questions regarding this feedback, please do not hesitate to reach out to me at Tommy@vrlta.org.
The Virginia Beer Wholesalers Association supports the proposed amendments to the tied house regulations, but believes that the Authority should consider making explicit that the general prohibition on cooperative advertising and providing “things of value” to retailers is as applicable to those operating in the “digital marketplace” as it is to “brick & mortar” retailers. It hardly seems logical that digital retailers of alcoholic beverages should not be subject to the same tied house constraints as their physical world counterparts.
