How are liquor license codes regulated?

The local liquor ordinance must adopt rules and regulations that are imposed by the State Liquor Control Commission. Additionally, the Local Liquor Ordinance may contain rules and regulations that are more restrictive than the State, but never less restrictive. Effingham liquor establishments located within the city limits are regulated by an adopted Liquor Control Ordinance which is part of the Municipal Code of the City of Effingham.
