COMMUNITY ALCOHOL SAFETY AND ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM

Cornwall, ON- The Cornwall Community Police Service will be joining other Ontario Police Services with a new campaign called the “Community Alcohol Safety and Enforcement Program”. The campaign promotes public safety and accountability by all license holders to operate in a legal and safe manner.

Members of the Cornwall Community Police Service Community Patrol Division will also be conducting inspections and enforcement activities to demonstrate prominent visibility and record results especially of “The Big Five” offences: (1) serve a minor, (2) intoxication, (3) permit disorderly behaviour on premise, (4) overcrowding, and (5) after hours service.

In addition to the above, the “Last Drink Program” will also be in effect. These Programs allow officers to investigate establishments where a drunk driver consumed his/her last drink. This allows police to identify trends in our community to further protect our citizens.
