(d) The annual license sales at the place of business are at least 100 in the third and subsequent years of appointment.

(e) If the applicant has been convicted of one or more criminal offenses, he or she must be found eligible after a balancing of the factors set out in Article 23-A of Correction Law. In accordance with that Article, no license shall be denied by reason of the applicant having been previously convicted of one or more criminal offenses unless (i) there is a direct relationship between one or more of the previous criminal offenses and the duties required of the license or (ii) licensing the applicant would involve an unreasonable risk to property or the safety or welfare of a specific individual or the general public. In determining these questions, the agency will look at all factors listed under New York State Correction Law Section 753.
