On June 29^th, the Michigan Office of Regulatory Reinvention issued its final draft report of the Liquor Control Advisory Rules Committee (“ARC”). We are pleased to report several of the recommendations made by Carlin Edwards Brown PLLC during the ARC process were included in the final draft recommendations. The ARC was created by the Office of Regulatory Reinvention (“ORR”) in accordance with Governor Snyder’s Executive Order 2011-5. The mission of the ORR is to ensure that Michigan’s regulatory environment is simple, fair, efficient and conducive to business growth and job creation. We believe several of the recommendations coming out of the final draft report will help modernize operations at the Michigan Liquor Control Commission (“MLCC”), help streamline the licensing process, and make liquor-related regulations more “business friendly.”
