§ 8.20.312. Drive-thru window restrictions.  


Latest version.
  • It shall be unlawful for any liquor licensee to sell, serve, allow consumption, give away or distribute or cause or permit to be sold, offered for sale, served, given away or distributed any alcoholic liquor through any drive-thru window. Drive-thru windows in establishments that are licensed for alcoholic liquor shall, at all times the window is open to the public, be under the supervision of a person who is at least twenty-one years of age. Drive-thru windows in establishments licensed for liquor shall not be located at or near the bar/lounge area. No alcohol container shall be opened nor shall any alcoholic drink be prepared or served from the kitchen or food preparation area of an establishment licensed for liquor that has a drive-thru window.

    Alcoholic liquor licensees who operate drive-thru windows shall post signs that provide notice that the Clark County Code prohibits the sale, service and distribution of alcoholic beverages through such windows. These signs shall be posted in conspicuous places:

    (a)

    Inside the building, in the area where employees operate the window; and

    (b)

    Outside the building, where customers place orders for service and at the pick up window.

    If a liquor licensee violates the provisions of this section, the board may, unless good cause is shown, require the licensee to permanently close its drive-thru window and the licensee may also be subject to disciplinary action, including license revocation, pursuant to Section 8.20.570 of this code.
