(A) Consumption. It is unlawful for any person to consume, or any licensee to permit consumption of, alcoholic beverages on licensed premises more than 30 minutes after the hour when a sale thereof can legally be made.
(B) Closing. Except as set forth in division (C) below, it is unlawful for any person, other than a licensee or his or her bona fide employee actually engaged in the performance of his or her duties, to be on premises licensed pursuant to this subchapter, and amendments thereof, more than 30 minutes after the legal time for making licensed sales, and it is unlawful for any licensee to permit any person to be on the licensed premises in violation of this division (B).
(C) Permit. A licensee, in connection with an event taking place on the licensed premises, may apply for a special permit from the City Council to allow persons to be on licensed premises more than 30 minutes after the legal time for making licensed sales. The licensee shall make application on a form provided by the City Council, with no required permit fee, and, if the permit is granted, it shall require that all doors shall remain unlocked while the permit is in effect, and shall include any other provisions and restriction as are imposed by the City Council. The issuance of a permit authorizes persons to be present on licensed premises more than 30 minutes after the legal time for making licensed sales, but does not authorize the consumption of alcoholic beverages on licensed premises more than 30 minutes after the hour when a sale thereof can legally be made.
