flag Hamilton City Council proposes raising alcohol licensing fees to reduce ratepayer subsidies.

flag Hamilton City Council is proposing a new Alcohol Fees Bylaw to reduce the financial burden on ratepayers who currently subsidize alcohol licensing costs by up to 29%. flag The new bylaw aims to shift towards a user-pays system by increasing fees by 34% in 2025/26, 20% in 2026/27, and 3% annually thereafter, reducing the subsidy to 5%. flag This would better align costs with actual licensing expenses and inflation. flag Public feedback is being sought on the proposal.
