 added by chapter 504 of the laws of 1975, is amended to read as follows:
   § 57-a. Change in  duration  of  licenses.  The  liquor  authority  is
 authorized to change the periods during which the licenses authorized by

 and fifty-five-a shall be effective and to  establish  the  commencement
 dates,  duration  and  expiration  dates  thereof, provided that no such
 license shall be effective for a period in excess of three  years.  When
 any  change or changes are made in the duration of any such license, the
 license fee shall be equal to the annual license fee specified  in  this
 article  multiplied  by  the  number  of years for which such license is
 issued.  The liquor authority may make such rules as shall be  appropri-
 ate to carry out the purpose of this section.
   §  2.  Section 67 of the alcoholic beverage control law, as amended by
 chapter 703 of the laws of 2022, is amended to read as follows:

 cle shall be effective for three years at three times that  annual  fee,
 except  that,  in  implementing the purposes of this section, the liquor
 authority shall schedule the commencement dates, duration and expiration
 dates thereof to provide for an equal cycle of license  renewals  issued
 under each such section through the course of the fiscal year. Effective
