Plain English: what this chapter covers

This is the rulebook for selling, serving and drinking alcohol in Ashburn. It covers who can get a beer, wine or liquor license and how the city council grants, renews, suspends or takes one away; what hours stores and bars can sell; rules for events, BYOB ('brown bagging') and catering; the city's alcohol excise taxes; and a ban on drinking or open containers on city streets and property.

The books and records of all wholesalers selling or delivering these beverages and all retailers thereof in the city shall be subject to inspection and audit by the agents of the city to ensure compliance herewith. It shall be unlawful for any person to deny to any authorized agent of the city reasonable access to its books and records and shall be the duty of each person to keep accurate records of payments and collections of the case tax and remittances.
