Alcohol Beverage Permit Policy
Private Parties
Private Parties i.e. weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, or anyone other than a non-profit organization shall not sell alcohol on their own. If a private party wishes to sell alcohol, they must arrange this through a licensed caterer. The caterer must have a type 47 or 48 License (obtained from the State of California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control) which enables the caterer to sell beer, wine and distilled spirits (hard liquor). If the caterer does not have this license, the private party cannot sell alcohol. No exceptions. It is illegal for a private party to sell alcohol.
Non-Profit Organizations
One-day permits to serve alcoholic beverages may be obtained by non-profit organizations from Alcoholic Beverage Control.
