LOCAL LICENSING AUTHORITY AGENDA March 12, 1997 Page 2 • Authority Members requested the applicant appear at the regularly scheduled meeting on April 9, 1997, and that a special meeting be held by phone on April 11. • The Authority was then informed of the following incidents: Service of Alcohol to a Visibly Intoxicated Person /Over Service On November 16, 1996 at approximately 11:55 p.m., Vail police officers were contacted on Bridge Street by an entertainer at the Club, informing them that a chugging contest was in progress and requested their presence, stating contestants could get out of hand. During the contest the audience was to determine which contestant was the most wasted and that person would win a mountain bike. Two officers responded to the Club and observed "contestants" consuming several shots and beers, and described in their report the details of the contest, and the behavior of participants. A summons was served to Scott Munns, an employee of The Club. Munns was charged with 2 counts of Sales of Alcohol to an Intoxicated Person, and plead guilty to both counts on March 6. He was fined $100 on each offense and given a deferred sentence for 1 year. Authority members agreed that a letter to the license holder discussing the matter be drafted for David's signature. Service of Alcohol to a Visibly Intoxicated Person /Over Service On November 17, 1996, officers observed an intoxicated person staggering down Bridge Street, talked to him and made sure he joined a group of his friends who said they'd take care of him. Later on a bar check at the Hong Kong, officers observed the same individual drinking in the bar. The individual told officers he was served by the bartender. When approached by officers, the bartender denied having served the individual. The intoxicated party then changed his story and told police that he just took the drink and wasn't served by the bartender. The Bartender was served with a County Summons and the case is set for further proceedings in County Court on March 18.
