I want to open a restaurant in the City of Alabaster. How do I submit application for an alcohol license?
Applications for an alcohol license must be presented to the Alabaster City Council. Application must first be made to the State of Alabama ABC Enforcement Division located at:
211 Summit Parkway
Homewood, AL 35209
Phone: 205-942-7955.

The applicant must then fill out an application from the Alabama Bureau of Investigation and the Alabama Department of Public Safety for a Criminal History Background check. A copy of this application may be obtained by contacting the Revenue Department at 205-664-6844.

The completed application should then be forward to the Alabama Bureau of Investigation and the Alabama Department of Public Safety for evaluation along with a $25 money order. Once this background check has been returned back to you bring it and the paperwork completed by the ABC Enforcement Division to the Revenue Department.

All documents must be submitted 14 days before a council meeting in order to be placed on the agenda. Someone from your organization will need to be present at the appointed date when it is then presented to the City Council. The City Council will make the final determination whether to grant or deny an Alcohol License. If it is approved, after the council meeting you will then need to return to the Revenue Department to pay for the alcohol license.
