Liquor License Location and Zoning - Local Citizen Concern
Identify which liquor license establishments in AA County are located in, or within 100 feet of a Residentially zoned area of the County.
Apparently, there are more stringent regulations in place for such establishments.
There is some question as to whether or not these regulations are being appropriately enforced by the County and/or State Liquor Board.

Liquor license establishment location data manually extracted from AA County Web Site (no geocoding / lat-long data provided) (Excel)
Census Geocoder Input File (Excel)
Census Geocoder Results - 497 successful results from 577 address records (Excel)
Why is this not provided by AA County... they obviously have all 577 addresses geocoded... they are on the map!
Maryland PIA request is likely required
File for input to QGIS for conversion to shapefile (CSV file)
Resulting shapefile - only 497 of 577 establishments (folder)
