(1) A state license granted under the provisions of this article 12 is not transferable except as provided in this section, but this section does not prevent a change of location as provided in section 44-12-309 (12).

(2) For a transfer of ownership, a license holder shall apply to the state licensing authority on forms prepared and furnished by the state licensing authority. Upon receipt of an application for transfer of ownership, the state licensing authority shall submit, within seven days, a copy of the application to the local jurisdiction to determine whether the transfer complies with local restrictions on transfer of ownership. In determining whether to permit a transfer of ownership, the state licensing authority shall consider only the requirements of this article 12, any rules promulgated by the state licensing authority, and any other local restrictions. The local jurisdiction may hold a hearing on the application for transfer of ownership. The local jurisdiction shall not hold a hearing pursuant to this subsection (2) until the local jurisdiction has posted a notice of hearing in the manner described in section 44-12-302 (1) on the licensed premises for a period of ten days and has provided notice of the hearing to the applicant at least ten days prior to the hearing. Any transfer of ownership hearing by the state licensing authority shall be held in compliance with the requirements specified in section 44-12-303.
