§ 3-278. Entertainment at pouring outlets.

(a)

Bands or orchestras and patron dancing shall be permitted at pouring outlets:

(1)

Where adequate space exists;

(2)

Where all fire and safety regulations are met;

(3)

Where the appropriate license fee has been fully paid; and

(4)

Where prior approval of the alcohol control commission is obtained.

(b)

Prior approval may be given only after notice of dates, time, approximate number of guests expected, nature of musical source and such other information as may be required is given in writing to the alcohol control commission.

(c)

Where music or dancing is provided on a regular basis, the alcohol control commission may singly approve such regular basis, provided notice of any substantial departure from such regular basis is given to the alcohol control commission. In all cases wherein music or dancing is provided on other than a regular basis or entertainment other than bands or patron dancing is provided, prior approval for each such occasion shall be obtained from the alcohol control commission.

(d)

The alcohol control commission may require a pouring outlet providing such music and dancing to provide such police attendance and protection as, in the opinion of the chief of police, is adequate to meet the need therefor.
