A. No licensee or officer, associated member, representative, agent or employee of such licensee shall sell, give or deliver alcoholic liquor to any person under the age of twenty one (21) years, or to any intoxicated person, except as provided in 235 Illinois Compiled Statutes 5/6-16.1. (Ord. 2007-124, 12-6-2007; amd. 2011 Code)
B. It shall unlawful for any holder of a liquor license, or his or her agent or employee, to suffer or permit any person under the age of twenty one (21) years to be or remain in any room or compartment adjoining or adjacent to or situated in the room or place where such licensed premises is located; provided, that this subsection shall not apply to any person under the age of twenty one (21) years who is accompanied by his or her parent or guardian, or to that portion of any licensed premises of which its principal business is a restaurant or the sale of service or commodities other than alcoholic liquor.
C. For the purpose of preventing the violation of this section, any licensee, or his agent or employee, may refuse to sell or serve alcoholic beverages to any person who is unable to produce adequate written evidence of identity and of the fact that he or she is over the age of twenty one (21) years, as required by this chapter.
D. In addition to all other fines and penalties, the local liquor control commissioner may revoke, suspend or refuse to renew any license of a licensee who violates the provisions of this section. Proof that the licensee, or his employee or agent, demanded, was shown and reasonably relied upon written evidence of identification as required by subsection 4-3-30B of this chapter in any transaction forbidden by this section is competent evidence and may be considered in any ordinance violation prosecution or in any proceedings for the suspension or revocation of any license based on a violation of this section.
