Five Taylorville businesses failed recent alcohol-only compliance checks.  The Taylorville Police Department has noted that Circle K, Country Kitchen, Debbie’s, TC Gaming Inc., and The Beehive failed these checks.  A total of 21 other businesses passed inspections. 

Taylorville PD carried out these inspections in partnership with the State Liquor Commission Division of Enforcement.  The inspections look at whether alcohol sellers check customers’ identifications to ensure these drinks are sold legally.  The visits occur periodically and without notice.

Both agencies encourage licensed establishments to prioritize complying with laws and regulations regarding alcohol sales, especially checking IDs of potential purchasers. 

More information on enforcement testing can be found on the website for the State Liquor Commission Division of Enforcement.
