Use of Alcohol and Service of Alcohol by the Lessee on Town Property <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. SERVICE OF ALCOHOL TO ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 21 IS EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED BY LAW. <\/span>\u201cService\u201d is defined by law as not only serving alcohol to a minor, but also creating a situation in <\/span>which a minor can reasonably gain access to alcohol (such as leaving an untended bar, keg, et cetera). ANY CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL BY MINORS ON THE PREMISES IS EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED. Should the Lessor determine that circumstances exist that may lead to the consumption of alcohol by minors on the Property, this agreement shall terminate immediately, and the Lessee must immediately vacate the property. Any security deposit or other funds held by the Lessor will be forfeited by the Renter or Lessee. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Any SALE of alcohol is expressly prohibited. <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Any alcoholic beverages brought onto the Property for the purpose of dispensing to guests of the Renter or Lessee must be supervised by the Renter or Lessee or their designee at all times during the event, especially if attendees of the event include persons under the age of 21. <\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Alcohol may be dispensed according to local law at events on the Property. The Renter or Lessee is responsible for obtaining and acquiring any necessary permits required to serve alcohol on the Property during any event. A copy of any permits so obtained must be given to the Lessor before the commencement of the event. <\/span><\/li>\n
  5. The Lessor makes no guarantees that appropriate permits for the service of alcohol on the grounds are, or will be made, available by town officials. The failure of the town to issue said permits shall not be grounds for termination of the Agreement. <\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Any dispensing of alcohol without the required permits will result in the immediate termination of the Agreement and will require the Renter or Lessee to vacate the Property immediately. All security deposits and funds paid to the Lessor will be forfeited by the Renter or Lessee should this occur. <\/span><\/li>\n
  7. The Renter or Lessee is solely responsible for any accidents, incidents, or damage incurred by a guest of the Lessee who has been dispensed alcohol at any event held on the Property. The Renter or Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Lessor for any such events caused by an intoxicated guest. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
