Hello Everyone. I have a question about DSP (Distilled Spirits Plant) locations.
I have read much of 27 CFR 19 and have found this excerpt:
§ 19.52 Restrictions on location of plants.
A person who intends to establish a distilled spirits plant may not locate it in any of the following places:
a) In any residence, shed, yard, or enclosure connected to a residence;
On any vessel or boat;
c) Where beer or wine is produced;
d) Where liquors are sold at retail; or
e) Where any other business is conducted except as provided in § 19.54.
(26 U.S.C. 5178)
Based on my interpretation, as long as the plant is not physically inside the residence, this should be allowed. Is this correct?
If I'm wrong, what about two adjoining parcels with the home on one parcel and the DSP on the other? I have already contacted my zoning board and they are fine with creating a conditional-use-permit for me either way. I emailed TTB my question and they say I can't have it all on one parcel, but he didn't answer if it could be on an adjoining parcel. Rather than take what he said at face value, I'd like to hear from the industry as well.
Thanks very much!
Jesse
