Thompson, Justice.

Dickerson purchased a convenience store in Richmond County, Georgia, in August of 1998. Prior to the purchase, and for the previous 30 years, the store had been operated with a retail off-premises beer and wine license. When Dickerson applied for a new license in her name, her application was approved by the Augusta-Richmond County License and Inspection Office, the Sheriff’s Department, and the Alcohol and Beverage Sub-Committee of the Augusta-Richmond County Commission. Then the Augusta-Richmond County Commission took up the matter.
