A compliance check is a tool to identify alcohol establishments that sell alcohol to underage youth. Compliance checks are used for two purposes:
- To identify, warn, and educate establishments that serve or sell alcohol to underage persons.
- To enforce state laws, local ordinances, or both, which are related to those illegal sales.
The Coalition has developed a comprehensive compliance check program that identifies infractions of state law as well as training opportunities. Funding the compliance checks come from the Wisconsin Partnership Program Grant.
Each establishment received a packet announcing the start of the compliance checks. The checks will continue over the next three years across Columbia County.
