(A) Posting of licenses.
(1) Before commencing or doing any business for the time for which a license has been issued, all licenses shall be posted and at all times displayed in a conspicuous place in the room or principal room where the business is carried on, so that all persons visiting the place may readily see the license.
(2) No licensee shall post the license or permit it to be posted, upon premises other than the licensed premises or upon premises where traffic in alcoholic beverages is being carried on by any person other than the licensee, or knowingly deface, destroy, or alter the license in any respect.
(B) Warning of dangers of drinking alcoholic beverages during pregnancy to be posted. All licensed retailers of alcoholic beverages, except holders of special temporary licenses, shall post in a prominent place easily seen by patrons a printed sign at least eight and one-half inches by 11 inches in size, with gender-neutral language supplied by the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, which shall warn that drinking alcoholic beverages prior to conception or during pregnancy can cause birth defects.
(C) As required by KRS Chapters 241 to 244, a city licensee who has a valid city retail distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverage license shall cause to be displayed in a conspicuous and prominent place on the licensed premises each of the following documents so that they may be seen and observed by all persons entering the licensed premises:
(1) A sign or placard at least eight inches by 11 inches in size with the following message printed or displayed thereon in 30 point or larger type:
"Persons under the age of 21 years are subject to a fine up to $100 if they:
a. Enter licensed premises to buy, or have served to them, any alcoholic beverages; or
b. Possess, purchase or attempt to purchase, or get another to purchase, any alcoholic beverages; or
c. Misrepresent their age for the purpose of purchasing or obtaining alcoholic beverages."
(2) All valid city licenses issued therefor and the state licenses to which they correspond. The failure to so display such licenses shall be prima facie evidence that no such valid licenses have been issued or exist and all actions, business, and transactions authorized thereby conducted on such premises are illegal and in violation of the provisions hereof and the state statutes and regulations of the State Alcoholic Beverage Control Board in regard thereto.
