SECTION 1: That Section 3-5-11 (F) of the City Code of the City of

entirety and substituting in lieu thereof the following new Section:
• 3-5-11: SALES TO MINORS, CERTAIN PERSONS RESTRICTED:
(F) Notwithstanding subsection (E) above, it shall be unlawful for any holder of a 131
liquor license, or his agent or employee, to suffer or permit any person under the age of
twenty-one (21) to be or remain anywhere on such licensed premises after the hour of
twelve o'clock midnight (12:00 a.m.); provided that this subsection shall not apply to
employees of the licensed premises, or to any person under the age of twenty-one (21)
who is accompanied by the person's parent or guardian. In addition, this subsection shall
not pertain to private events or fund raisers as long as the licensee (1) gives written notice
of said event to the City two weeks in advance, and (2) provides for noticeable
identification for those under 21 years of age remaining on the premises after 12:00 a.m.,
either by wrist bands or hand stamps. For purposes of this section, "fundraiser" shall be
defined as an event held where the cover charge/entrance fee is donated to a local charity
or nationally recognized charity, or a 501(C)(3) organization. Establishments must provide
a fully enclosed area for these events such that entry and exit from the area can be
controlled and that no alcoholic beverages leave the designated area. An enclosed area
may be designated by a partition, roped off area or separate room. Also, the area must not
be open to access by the general public, or to access by persons other than those properly
participating in the event. There shall be permitted no more than 40 fundraisers, as
defined in this section, in 131 liquor establishments per calendar year. If a licensed
establishment has been found three (3) times to have committed the offense of selling
• liquor to underaged persons, said establishment shall not be permitted to hold fundraisers
for twelve (12) months from the date of the last finding.
