Summary
The law obligates any licensed retailer that sells intoxicating beverages for on‑site consumption to offer a removable lid when a patron asks and to post a clear notice about the service. Establishments may charge a modest fee not exceeding the wholesale cost of the lids, but the first violation only results in a warning from the department. The measure takes effect on January 1 2027.
