Jefferson County to Hold Vote on Sunday Brunch Booze

Brunch, Alcohol

Voters in Jefferson County will get to decide whether to allow restaurants and other businesses to serve alcohol on Sunday mornings.

The Journal reports the Jefferson County Commission decided to put the topic on the Nov. 8 general election ballot.

Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin last month signed a bill to let voters decide, county by county, if Sunday alcohol sales can be moved from 1 p.m. to 10 a.m.

Restaurants, distilleries and wineries are among the businesses that would be able to sell on-site booze earlier.
