Operator (bartender) License Application
An operator's license is often called a "bartender's license." Not all bartenders must hold operator's licenses, but there must be at least one licensed operator in charge of the premises. If the premise is large, with several serving areas, bar areas, etc., licensed operators must be in charge of each discrete area, in order to supervise and direct unlicensed persons who may be selling/serving. The license fee is $65.00, which includes a 2 year period.
To qualify for an operator's license, you must:
- be at least 18 years old
- meet criminal record requirements (the police department will do a background check)
- have completed a responsible beverage server course and include a copy with the completed application
*****Forms MUST be filled out correctly and truthfully. Any applications that are not, may be denied and applicants will have to fill out a new form.*****
