Clark County this month approved an ordinance that will attempt to prevent alcohol consumption by minors in hotel rooms and certain entertainment venues.
The ordinance, affirmed by the County Commission, addresses alcohol stocked in hotel rooms, and private viewing areas in movie theaters and sports arenas and convention pavilions. The Las Vegas Strip falls within Clark County governance.
Adult guests with children must acknowledge in writing that they are responsible for the alcoholic beverages that are stocked by the properties, according to the ordinance. They also have to agree to not allow anyone under age 21 to consume it.
If they refuse, the venues are required to remove the spirits, the ordinance said.
