Nine Carson City area businesses cited during alcohol compliance check
On March 31, 2021, the Carson City Sheriff’s Office School Resource Officers in conjunction with Partnership Carson City conducted an alcohol compliance check.
This was conducted with the support of two 16-year-old youth, a 17-year-old and an 18-year-old who were sent into local businesses in an attempt to purchase alcohol.
When asked for ID, each would present their real identification cards. In total, 50 businesses were screened during the compliance check and nine of those businesses failed the check. Compliance checks are conducted to keep alcohol out of the hands of minors.
The following is the list of the nine Carson City businesses that were cited for failing the compliance check:
7-Eleven 3701 N. Carson St.
Savemart 3620 N. Carson St.
Smoke Shop 1953 N. Carson St.
RK Food Mart 500 Hot Springs Rd.
Maverik 1451 College Pkwy
7-Eleven 3838 E Highway 50
Cigarettes For Less 2182 E William St.
CVS 1980 N. Carson St.
Carson Central 1017 N. Carson St.
The Carson City Sheriff’s Office and Partnership Carson City remind businesses to be diligent in checking identification to ensure those purchasing alcohol are 21 years of age or older. It is Nevada law to check identification when selling or serving alcohol. If you have any questions on compliance checks you may email SRO@carson.org.
