Liquor licence revocation proposal dismissed; licensee found to have made reasonable efforts despite technical breaches.

The Registrar of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario proposed to revoke the liquor licence of Sugar Island Restaurant & Bar following a homicide outside the premises and alleged breaches of security conditions.

The Board found that while the licensee had breached conditions relating to security personnel, wanding, and video surveillance on certain dates, these breaches were largely due to misunderstandings and technical failures rather than intentional non-compliance.

On the night of the homicide, the required security personnel were present and no disturbance occurred inside the premises.

The Board dismissed the allegations that the licensee failed to take reasonable measures to deter disorderly conduct and that the business would not be carried on with integrity and honesty, and invited submissions on penalty for the breached conditions.

Liquor licence suspended for 65 days with added conditions following drug possession on premises.

The Registrar sought to revoke the licensee's liquor licence following findings of violations, including the presence of marijuana on the premises.

The Board found that while the licensee's managerial competence was a concern, there was no evidence of active drug trafficking.

The Board determined that revocation was not appropriate and instead ordered a 65-day suspension (including 52 days already served under an interim suspension) and imposed additional conditions on the licence regarding security and staff training.

Interim liquor licence suspension rescinded subject to strict conditions prohibiting special events and DJs.

The Registrar of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario issued a Notice of Proposal to revoke the licensee's liquor licence and an interim order suspending the licence following a fatal shooting outside the premises.

The Board held a hearing to review the interim suspension.

Finding that the licensee had been cooperative with police regarding security improvements and that past issues were tied to specially promoted events with DJs, the Board concluded that lifting the suspension with strict conditions would not compromise public safety.

The interim suspension was rescinded subject to conditions prohibiting special events and DJs, and requiring security personnel when capacity reaches 50 percent.

Liquor licence conditions regarding patio hours and glassware removed due to new owner's operational improvements.

The applicant licensee applied to remove two conditions from its liquor licence: a restriction on patio service hours and a requirement to use plastic stemware on the patio.

The Registrar proposed to review the application due to objections from local residents regarding noise and police concerns regarding public safety.

The Board found that the new owner had made significant improvements, including installing a high wooden barrier, increasing security, and removing outdoor speakers, which constituted a change in circumstances.

The Board approved the removal of the conditions, subject to the addition of new conditions requiring a designated employee to monitor exiting patrons, keeping the rear door closed, providing a contact number for complaints, and posting signage requesting patrons to respect neighbours.

Liquor licence suspension proposal rejected; warning issued due to 26-year unblemished record.

The Registrar issued a Notice of Proposal to suspend the Licensee's liquor licence for serving alcohol after 2:00 a.m. and failing to clear signs of service by 2:45 a.m.

The Licensee admitted to the facts, explaining that an employee served friends against company policy and without management's knowledge.

Given the Licensee's 26-year unblemished record, cooperation, and remorse, the Board declined to impose a suspension and instead issued a warning.

Liquor licence revoked after licensee abdicated responsibility for catered events, leading to multiple violations.

The Registrar of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario sought to revoke the liquor licence of the respondent licensee following incidents at two events held under the licensee's caterer's endorsement.

At the first event, inspectors observed signs of service long after hours and illegal drug use.

At the second event, a fatal shooting occurred.

The tribunal found that the licensee had completely abdicated its responsibilities by essentially renting out its caterer's endorsement to third parties without providing any oversight or staff.

The tribunal found multiple violations of the Liquor Licence Act and its regulations, and ordered the revocation of the liquor licence.

The Registrar of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario sought to revoke the liquor licence of Jamrock Bar and Grill based on multiple alleged violations of the Liquor Licence Act regulations.

The Board dismissed allegations relating to a second allegedly intoxicated patron and an earlier incident involving marijuana found in an office.

The Board requested written submissions on penalty.
