[Adopted 3-20-1986 by Ord. No. 960 (Ch. 5, Art. IV, of the
1970 Borough Code)]
A.
The purpose of this article is to protect the welfare of our teenage
population by prohibiting their congregation upon premises licensed
by the Borough pursuant to state law to dispense alcoholic beverages.
B.
It is found and determined by this governing body that the atmosphere
of a bar, even though not selling alcohol at the times of certain
events, is not in the best interest of our teenagers. The Borough
is therefore invoking its powers under Title 33 of the New Jersey
statutes to protect against said activities.
As used in this article, the following terms shall have the
meanings indicated:
A scheduled dance or event held on the premises of a licensed
plenary retail alcoholic beverage establishment and restricted to
those patrons under the legal drinking age established by the State
of New Jersey.
Those individuals who are less than the legal drinking age
as established in New Jersey who attend teen nights as hereinabove
defined. This shall not apply to individuals employed by the licensed
plenary retail alcoholic beverage establishment.
The holding of a teen night is hereby prohibited upon any duly
licensed plenary retail alcoholic beverage establishment within the
Borough of Seaside Park.
[Amended 12-20-2001 by Ord. No. 1291[1]]
Any person who violates any one or more sections of this article shall be subject to the general penalty in Chapter 1, Article II, General Penalty, of the Borough Code. In addition, any licensed establishment shall be subject to any and all penalties invoked in connection with the rules and regulations of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Division.
