hey buddy -got a permit for that beer - Bullwinkle - 10-08-2009

New rules at the launch ramp - after the bit about flu shots
How about a dollar a head entrance from beer drinkers only to fund the security and id check for wristbands - thats how this (ex) - love the sound of that - boat charter operator would do it.

LOL Bullwinkle! Great response to that whole story. I actually laughed out loud when I read about the guy riding his ATV. I was surprised to read that drinking was allowed at all there. I thought it was not allowed in county parks.
I think $1 a head is a great idea to pay for security.[8D]
Aloha au i Hawai`i,

Problem is, a "good" lawyer can argue that there are serious legal issues surrounding a "fee" or "tax" being levied for admission into an alcohol-consuming environment.
RE: hey buddy -got a permit for that beer - Bullwinkle - 10-08-2009
I think a prudent lawyer would advise that the county to steer clear of any liability and ban intoxicants at county recreation facilities altogether.
My plan being second best - grin

"Problem is, a "good" lawyer can argue that there are serious legal issues surrounding a "fee" or "tax" being levied for admission into an alcohol-consuming environment."
They'll call it a "cover charge"?

A "cover charge" is usually something that people pay when they go into an establishment in which kids aren't allowed.

The isuue is ... who is selling the booze
In this case its a bring your own deal
All the county is doing is verifying age (and hope fully running a warrant check) - to issue a bracelet that identifies this person as being over 21. Id sub it out to securitas or one of those
the county may or may not impose a user fee... think of it as a launch ramp for boats and ......
all kidding aside.... do we think anyone is really going to drive down to the police station ID in hand for a beer note? It may be a good way to slow things down a little and make enforcement easier

Why not just ban booze at that psrk. If you need to cop a buzz you can always smoke a joint.

We spent several hours there (today). Me, the boys and their 2 friends we brought are all "white". No issues what-so-ever. Nor have we had any issues in the last few months. Some of this seems to be a little out of proportion. You show respect, you get respect.
(I have observed numerous "locals" smoking weed, in several locations every time we go there. Wonder if they were driving?)
