Alcohol Permits

Alcohol Permits
Beer and wine sales for off-premises consumption, as well as sales of mixed beverages, beer and wine for restaurants are allowed by permit and zoning, since approval by Murphy voters in 2006.

Obtaining an Alcohol Permit
The process to obtain alcohol permits to serve and/or sell alcohol within the City is two-fold.

The Office of the City Secretary processes applications and permits to allow for alcohol sales within the City of Murphy after appropriate city departments ensure compliance with all local ordinances and regulations.  The City’s process takes approximately 30 days.
