DISCUSSION
As a result of the Police Department’s continuing effort to prevent alcohol sales to
minors, a grant request was submitted to the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control.
Our proposal was accepted and an award not to exceed $53,848 was granted.
There are three components to the grant: 1) public education, 2) law enforcement
training, and 3) enforcement of liquor laws aimed at sales to minors.
During the course of this one-year grant, our department will work with officers of the
California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control to reduce or eliminate the illegal sale
of alcohol to minors. These monies provide funding for law enforcement training,
business training and law enforcement operations. The Department of Alcohol
Beverage Control will take administrative action against those establishments we find
violating the law.
The majority of funds for this grant pay for overtime devoted to training and
enforcement.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no general fund impact. This grant has no matching fund requirement.
