Many local municipalities will receive a portion of liquor license fees paid to the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board by approved licensees.
The board recently announced that municipalities within Butler County will collect nearly $40,000 in total as fees range from $125 to $700 depending on the type of license and the population of the municipality
Cranberry Township will collect just over $13,000 while Butler Township has been awarded just over $6,000 and both Adams Township and Butler City will receive just over $3,000. Other smaller local municipalities will see at least $150.
Municipalities have flexibility in allocating and spending the twice-yearly returned license fees to meet local needs.
