Liquor licence suspended for 14 days for permitting drunkenness on the premises.

Following a finding that the licensee violated subsection 45(1) of Ontario Regulation 719/90 by permitting drunkenness in respect of one patron, the Board considered the appropriate sanction.

The Registrar sought a 30-day suspension, citing the licensee's prior disciplinary history, while the licensee proposed a warning.

The Board found that a warning was insufficient given the licensee's recent history of similar violations, but a 30-day suspension was too harsh as only one of the two alleged violations was proven.

The Board ordered a 14-day suspension of the liquor licence.

Liquor licence transfer refused due to after-hours service, permitting drunkenness, and applicant's ignorance of liquor laws.

The Registrar issued a Notice of Proposal to refuse the corporate applicant's application to transfer a liquor licence for a karaoke bar.

Police and AGCO inspectors observed multiple infractions on two dates, including patrons consuming alcohol after hours, signs of service not being cleared, a patron exhibiting signs of drunkenness, and unlit fire exit signs.

The applicant's principal admitted to a lack of knowledge of the Liquor Licence Act and produced a staff handbook containing significant errors regarding liquor laws.

The Board found that the applicant violated the Act and regulations, and that the applicant's conduct and lack of knowledge afforded reasonable grounds for belief that the business would not be carried on in accordance with the law.

The application to transfer the licence was refused.

Liquor licensee found to have permitted drunkenness regarding one patron but not another.

The Registrar of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario issued a Notice of Proposal to suspend the liquor licence of Rockwood Nightclub Inc. for allegedly permitting drunkenness on its premises, contrary to subsection 45(1) of Ontario Regulation 719/90.

Following an inspection, two patrons were observed exhibiting signs of intoxication.

The Board found that the licensee did not permit drunkenness with respect to the first patron, as security staff were actively escorting her out when observed.

However, the Board found a violation with respect to the second patron, who was highly intoxicated and unassisted by staff for an extended period.

The Board concluded the licensee knew or ought to have known of the second patron's drunkenness.

Allegations of noise violations dismissed and monetary penalty set aside due to insufficient evidence.

The Licensee appealed an Order of Monetary Penalty issued by the Registrar for alleged violations of section 46 of O. Reg. 719/90, which prohibits permitting noise from the premises to disturb nearby residents.

A neighbouring condominium resident complained of loud music from the establishment's patio on two occasions.

The Board found that on the first occasion, an uninvited busker played acoustic guitar and was promptly asked to leave by staff, meaning the Licensee did not permit the noise.

On the second occasion, evidence established that the patio was closed, the outdoor speakers were broken, and the weather was extremely cold, making it unlikely the noise emanated from the premises.

The Board dismissed the allegations and set aside the $2,400 monetary penalty.

Liquor licence suspended for 14 days for permitting drunkenness on the premises.

Following a finding that the licensee violated subsection 45(1) of Ontario Regulation 719/90 by permitting drunkenness in respect of one patron, the Board considered the appropriate sanction.

The Registrar sought a 30-day suspension, citing the licensee's prior disciplinary history, while the licensee proposed a warning.

The Board found that a warning was insufficient given the licensee's recent history of similar violations, but a 30-day suspension was too harsh as only one of the two alleged violations was proven.

The Board ordered a 14-day suspension of the liquor licence.

Liquor licensee found to have permitted drunkenness regarding one patron but not another.

Following an inspection, two patrons were observed exhibiting signs of intoxication.

The Board found that the licensee did not permit drunkenness with respect to the first patron, as security staff were actively escorting her out when observed.

However, the Board found a violation with respect to the second patron, who was highly intoxicated and unassisted by staff for an extended period.

The Board concluded the licensee knew or ought to have known of the second patron's drunkenness.

Allegations of noise violations dismissed and monetary penalty set aside due to insufficient evidence.

A neighbouring condominium resident complained of loud music from the establishment's patio on two occasions.

The Board found that on the first occasion, an uninvited busker played acoustic guitar and was promptly asked to leave by staff, meaning the Licensee did not permit the noise.

On the second occasion, evidence established that the patio was closed, the outdoor speakers were broken, and the weather was extremely cold, making it unlikely the noise emanated from the premises.

The Board dismissed the allegations and set aside the $2,400 monetary penalty.
