The term is typically used for any county that allows alcohol to be sold in certain situations but has limitations on alcohol sales that a normal "wet" county would not have.
A "dry" county that contains one or more "wet" cities is typically called "moist".
[citation needed] The term can be used in two different senses: Sebree Note that once a city votes itself fully wet, Kentucky state law mandates a 60-day period, starting on the date that the election results are certified, before vendors can apply for licenses to sell distilled spirits and wine.
At the end of that period, the state will then advertise in that city's newspaper of record to announce the number of licenses that will be granted.
However, beer licenses are not subject to quotas, and can be applied for once the city enacts a governing ordinance.
