ALCOHOL ADVERTISING ON CITY BEACHES AND PARKS

the city policy regarding allowance of beer sponsorship for specific events on city beaches and parks,
indicating their reliance on alcohol beverage company sponsorship to pay for the high costs of putting on
their events.

destination attraction events in the city and to continue its policy of promoting a drug and alcohol free
lifestyle, while acknowledging the need for alcohol beverage company advertising in connection with
sponsorship of these events,

follows;
i. It shall be the policy of the City of Huntington Beach that the advertising of alcohol in
association with approved specific event permits shall be limited to beer and wine products only, no hard

advertising at the event site must include a site plan and merchandising handout plan for approval by the
Director of Community Services. Approval of the site sign plan shall require the posting of"no alcohol
beverage consumption"signs as well as educational message signs such as" Don't Drink and Drive,"
or other educational advertisements appropriate to the occasion.

additional fee set by resolution of the City Council that will specifically be used for substance abuse
