FROM: Sergeant Derek Frank
RE: September 2019 Bar Check Report
DATE: October 18, 2019
This report tracks the performance of Iowa City liquor license establishments in
monitoring their patrons for violations of Iowa City’s ordinances regarding Possession of
Alcohol Under the Legal Age (PAULA) and Persons Under the Legal Age in Licensed or Permitted
Establishments (Under 21).
“Bar checks” are defined by resolution as an officer-initiated check of a liquor establishment for
PAULA or other alcohol-related violations. This includes directed checks of designated liquor
establishments, and checks initiated by officers as part of their routine duties. It does not
include officer responses to calls for service.
The bar check ratios are calculated by dividing the number of citations issued to patrons at an
establishment during a period of time by the number of bar checks performed during the same
time period. If at any time a venue with a granted exception certificate has a PAULA ratio more
than .25 during a 12-month period, their certificate is reviewed for revocation.
Note, while the resolution requires that bar checks and citations of the University of Iowa
Department of Public Safety (DPS) be included in these statistics, UI DPS ceased performing
bar checks and issuing these citations to patrons in May of 2014.
