Which scenario would typically require a temporary permit?

• A. A corporate lunch conducted under a standard license.
• B. A private party at a residence with alcohol under a standard license.
• C. A community festival featuring alcohol not covered by the standard license.
• D. A church potluck with no alcohol.

Answer: (C)

Temporary permits are used when alcohol will be served at an event that isn’t covered by the license for the usual premises—essentially for temporary locations or separate events. A community festival featuring alcohol not covered by the standard license is the typical example, since it’s a temporary, public event at a location outside the licensed premises, so a temporary permit would usually be required. In contrast, a corporate lunch conducted under the standard license happens at the licensed premises and within its permitted scope, so no extra permit is needed. A private party at a residence with alcohol under a standard license would still relate to the licensed operation, and a church potluck with no alcohol involves no alcohol service at all, so neither would require a temporary permit.
