Each municipality or county adopting an ordinance pursuant to § 35-4-111 shall maintain a registry of each on-sale license that is being offered for sale at the price established in § 35-4-117 and furnish a copy of the registry to anyone who requests a new full-service restaurant on-sale license. The municipality or county may only issue a new license pursuant to §§ 35-4-110 to 35-4-120, inclusive, if no on-sale license is on the registry or a person desiring to purchase an on-sale license listed on the registry provides documentation showing that the person is unable to purchase the on-sale license at the price established in § 35-4-117 and on terms satisfactory to both the potential buyer and seller. The price of any on-sale license registered as, for sale, with the municipality or county shall be sold at the current fair market price set by the municipality or county pursuant to § 35-4-117. Nothing in §§ 35-4-110 to 35-4-120, inclusive, precludes the sale of an on-sale license by a licensee not listed on the registry.
