Alcohol Compliance Checks

A compliance check is a tool used to identify alcohol establishments that sell alcohol to underage youth. Compliance checks are used for two purposes:

1. To identify, warn, and educate establishments that serve or sell alcohol to underage persons.
2. To enforce state laws, local ordinances, or both, which are related to those illegal sales.

HCHY Coalition has developed a comprehensive compliance check program that identifies infractions of state law as well as training opportunities. Funding for the Marquette County compliance check program comes from the Wisconsin Department of Traffic, a federal Drug Free Communities Grant and a federal State Incentive Grant (Alive and Well).
