County to Update Liquor Ordinance

Macomb, IL – McDonough County will have to update its liquor ordinances. Board chairman Scott Schwerer says he has a liquor license application from someone whose name he will not yet disclose. He says it involves serving wine, and the county ordinances only mention serving beer. He says the county guidelines have not been re-visited since they were first drafted in 1983. State's Attorney James Hoyle says they should be updated to cover businesses that might spring up when Route 336 extends through the county.
