| by publication once a week for two consecutive weeks in one | 277 |
| newspaper of general circulation in the municipal corporation or | 278 |
| township or as provided in section 7.16 of the Revised Code. | 279 |
| If the legislative authority dissolves the outdoor | 280 |
| refreshment area, the outdoor refreshment area ceases to exist. | 281 |
| The legislative authority then shall provide notice of its action | 282 |
| to the division of liquor control and the division shall revoke | 283 |
| all outdoor refreshment area designations issued to qualified | 284 |

| weeks in one newspaper of general circulation in the municipal | 301 |
| corporation or township or as provided in section 7.16 of the | 302 |
| Revised Code. If the legislative authority dissolves all or part | 303 |
| of an outdoor refreshment area, the area designated in the | 304 |
| ordinance or resolution no longer constitutes an outdoor | 305 |
| refreshment area. The legislative authority shall provide notice | 306 |
| of its actions to the division of liquor control. Upon receipt of | 307 |
| the notice, the division shall revoke all outdoor refreshment area | 308 |
| designations issued to qualified permit holders within the | 309 |
