Description
In this cause, we consider whether an ordinance of a home-rule city prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages within 300 feet of a residential area is preempted by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code (TABC). In 1990, the Dallas Merchants and Concessionaires Association, the Texas Package Stores Association, and other individuals (hereinafter "Merchants") filed suit against the City of Dallas ("City") for declaratory and injunctive relief. The trial court held that the ordinance was preempted by the TABC. The court of appeals reversed. 823 S.W.2d 347. We hold that an ordinance of a home-rule city prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages within 300 feet of a residential area is preempted by the TABC. Consequently, we reverse the judgment of the court of appeals and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
