§ 5.04.240. View from street.

In premises upon which the sale of alcoholic liquor for consumption upon the premises is licensed (other than as a restaurant), no screen, blind, curtain, partition, article or thing shall be permitted in the windows or upon the doors of such licensed premises nor inside such premises, which shall prevent a clear view into the interior of such licensed premises from the street, road or sidewalk at all times, and no booth, screen, partition or other obstruction nor any arrangement of lights or lighting shall be permitted in or about the interior of such premises which shall prevent a full view of the entire interior of such premises from the street, road or sidewalk. The premises must be so located that there shall be a full view of the entire interior of such premises from the street, road or sidewalk. All rooms where liquor is sold for consumption upon the premises shall be continuously lighted during business hours by natural or artificial white light so that all parts of the interior of the premises shall be clearly visible. In case the view into any such licensed premises required by the foregoing provisions shall be wilfully obscured by the licensee or by him wilfully suffered to be obscured or in any manner obstructed, such license shall be subject to revocation in the manner provided in Section 5.04.260. In order to enforce the provisions of this section, the mayor shall have the right to require the filing with him of plans, drawings and photographs showing the clearance of the view as above required by this section.

After closing hours, all containers of alcoholic liquor shall be closed and such alcoholic liquors shall be in their original containers, and no alcoholic beverages shall be in an open possession of any person within the premises.
