by Art. 13]
In any restaurant, club or other facility where a bar is operated
under a liquor license issued by the Board of Selectmen pursuant to
MGL c. 138, it shall be unlawful for the licensee to permit any person
under the age of 21 years to be seated at the bar at any time.
In any such restaurant, club or other facility, one or more
signs shall be prominently posted in such a manner as to be plainly
visible to anyone seated at the bar, which sign(s) shall state that
persons under the age of 21 years may not sit at the bar.
The Board of Selectmen may include compliance with this bylaw
as a condition of any liquor license for a licensee that operates
a bar.
This bylaw shall be enforced by the Police Department. Any violation of this bylaw shall be punishable by a fine of $300. In the case of a continuing violation of § 169-2, above, each day during which the violation continues shall be treated as a separate violation. Where compliance with this bylaw has been made a condition of a liquor license, such fines may be assessed notwithstanding that the Board of Selectmen takes action to suspend or revoke the offender's liquor license under MGL c. 138, § 64.
