NEW Local Government Recommendation Form
Note: There are separate versions for Annual Liquor Licenses and Special Event Licenses. Please make sure that you are using the correct form. At least sections 1 and 2 of the form must be completed and submitted to the local government prior to applying with the OLCC. Once you receive a response from the local government, you will need to upload that documentation as part of your online CAMP application.

• Annual Licensing - Local Government Recommendation Form
• Special Events Licensing - Local Government Recommendation Form

Additionally, some local governments provide their own documentation that can also satisfy this requirement. You may use either the OLCC-provided Local Government Recommendation Form or your local government's own document, as long as your submission contains at least the following pieces of information:

• Date the local government received the application
• Trade Name of the business
• Premises street address (where the business will be located)
• Name of the local government (city or county name)
• That the submission is for a Liquor License

How do I find my local government?
To find the correct local government for your application, we recommend searching the internet for “Your City or County” + OLCC Liquor License. This will typically return a search result that will help guide you to the appropriate office in your jurisdiction. Common departments for processing LGB recommendations include Planning & Development, Civic Life, or the Sheriff’s Office; however, each local government is different.
