§ 22-278. Purpose.

The city council finds that the unregulated use of alcoholic liquors and controlled substances by minors creates social problems in many communities throughout the United States, including the city.
(b)
The use of alcoholic liquors and controlled substances by minors can have devastating effects on not only the minors but on the public at large, including, but not limited to, injuries caused by vehicles operated by persons under the influence of alcoholic liquors and controlled substances.
(c)
The city council further finds that adults could significantly alleviate alcoholic liquor and controlled substance problems by assuming the responsibility for open house parties which occur at their residences.
