If your business plans to sell distilled spirits, the distance requirements are 300 feet from any church building or government owned and operated alcoholic treatment. All school buildings, educational buildings, school grounds or college campuses shall be more than 600 feet from the business.
If your business sells wine or malt beverages, the distance is 300 feet from any school building, school grounds, or college campus.
The guidelines further state that no package distilled spirits licensed shall be issued for any place of business closer than 1500 feet of another licensed packaged distilled spirits business. The place of business shall be more than 200 feet from a private single-family dwelling in a zoning district that permits single and/or two-family dwellings.
We recommend confirming all information with Johns Creek officials. Ordinances and laws are updated and changed from time to time. It is important to review the Code of Ordinances before doing each survey to confirm no new requirements have been implemented.

What if a business is licensed to sell alcoholic beverages under the alcohol license and a church or school is constructed within the specified distances of the business?
If the distance requirements are met at the time a license is issued, the subsequent opening and operation of a church, school or treatment center within the prohibited distance shall not prevent the continuance of an existing license.
We serve Cobb County, Gwinnett County, Forsyth County, Clayton County as well as Fulton County. We also served all the cities and communities within each of these counties.
Every City and County have different requirements for measuring distances and each one differs about what to measure.
Call us for consultation on each requirement.
