Alcoholic Beverage License
Businesses selling alcoholic beverages must obtain a city license after obtaining a license from the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC). During the TABC application process applicants are required to have a portion of the TABC application completed and signed by the Castle Hills City Secretary. Upon issuance of the TABC license, application may be made for the city alcoholic beverage license or license. All original permit fees and license fees shall be paid to the city manager at city hall. All renewal fees shall be due to the city manager at city hall on, or before, the expiration of the anniversary date of its issuance.
