Patterned after the alcohol beverage distribution system in Alberta, Canada, the Board was charged with the responsibility of purchasing, pricing and vending liquor in the state. By the first quarter of 1935, 115 state-owned retail stores were in operation. In 1937, liquor-by-the-drink became legal. In the mid-1960s, emphasis on customer services brought self-service stores to the state. In 1973, the state legislature abolished the Liquor Control Board and transferred its responsibilities to the Department of Revenue, Liquor Control Division. In 1995, the state legislature directed the department to convert all remaining state liquor stores to agent owned liquor stores. All agency liquor stores now own their own liquor inventories that they continue to purchase through the state warehouse, but are permitted to set their own retail prices as long as it is at or above the minimum state established prices. All alcoholic beverage license holders purchase liquor through the agency liquor stores at a cost no greater than the state’s established price.
