New York City bars and restaurants will be subject to additional restrictions and tougher penalties for violations because of a lack of compliance, Governor Andrew Cuomo said.
Any establishment that receives three violations will be closed, Cuomo said Thursday on a call with reporters. “Egregious” violations can result in an immediate loss of a liquor license, he said.
