(a)The Department of Consumer Protection may, except as to a store engaged chiefly in the sale of groceries, in its discretion, suspend, revoke or refuse to grant or renew a permit for the sale of alcoholic liquor if the department has reasonable cause to believe that
(1)the proximity of the permit premises to any charitable institution supported by private or public funds, church, convent, hospital, public or parochial school, or veterans' home, or any barracks, camp or flying field of the armed forces, will detrimentally impact such institution, church, convent, hospital, school, home, barracks, camp or field,
(2)the permit premises is in such proximity to a no-permit town so that it is apparent that the applicant is seeking to obtain the patronage of persons in such town,
