This article is enacted to regulate the sale and transportation
of alcoholic beverages in the Borough of Pennington in accordance
with the provisions of an act of the Legislature of the State of New
Jersey entitled "An Act Concerning Alcoholic Beverages," comprising
Chapter 436 of the Laws of 1933, its supplements and amendments, and
also comprising N.J.S.A. 33:1-1 et seq., and in accordance with the
rules and regulations of the State Director of Alcoholic Beverage
Control.
For the purpose of this article, words and phrases herein shall
have the same meanings as in N.J.S.A 33:1-1 et seq., and the rules
and regulations of the Director of the Division of Alcoholic Beverage
Control.
Any "officer," as defined in N.J.S.A. 33:1-1p, shall have full
authority to inspect, investigate and supervise the licensed premises
for the purpose of enforcing the provisions of these regulations,
the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act or any rules or regulations promulgated
thereunder.
Any person who shall knowingly aid or abet another in the violation
of any provision of these regulations shall be punishable in the same
manner as the violation aided or abetted. Any attempt to evade these
regulations or any provisions thereof, either directly or indirectly,
by acquiescence, collusion or connivance by or with any licensee,
his agents, servants or employees, shall be considered a violation
of these regulations.
Whenever there shall be a conviction for violation of any provision
of this article, the judge shall forthwith certify such conviction
to the Borough Council. If the conviction is of a person other than
a licensee, the judge shall indicate the name of the licensee upon
whose premises the violation occurred.
