Cookeville To Consider Ordinance Amending Sale Start Time For Beer


Cookeville City Council will consider the first reading of an ordinance amending the sale of beer.

City Clerk Darian Coons said the ordinance would sync up the start time of 10 a.m. for the sale of all alcoholic beverages on Sunday.

“Back in 2019, the council opted back into the Sunday start time for the sale of alcoholic beverages,” Coons said. “But alcoholic beverages are regulated by the state, beer is regulated strictly by the local level.”

Should City Council approve the ordinance on Thursday, it would come back for a second reading at its next meeting. Coons said that once it receives full approval, the ordinance would go into effect immediately. He said it would apply to the sale of alcohol everywhere in Cookeville, from grocery stores to restaurants.
