sored HB 3201 in 2009. The bill
proposed similar restrictions and
passed the House, but died in the
Senate. A sticking point with
that bill, Kotek said, was that it
didn't define the benchmarks for
a problem bar clearly enough.
“This bill does a much better
job of putting clarity on what
defines a problem bar,’’ she said.
“Currently, it’s not very clear
and can keep the OLCC from
stepping in because of the long
process involved.
“We think this kind of clarity is
also going to help those busi­
nesses better understand their
situation with law enforcement
and the OLCC.”
Kotek said the bill is most
likely to be introduced on the
House floor next month.
Officials said bars that attract
police attention and appear most
likely to fall within its bench-
marks are those involved in the
adult entertainment industry.
Portland Police, for example,
have petitioned the OLCC to
revoke the license of Cabaret, a
strip club located on the corner
of Fifth and West Burnside, be­
cause of its history of 36 inci­
dents of violence or criminal
activity in 26 months. The OLCC
granted the petition in 2009, but
Cabaret won a stay and remains
open.
The proposed bill is part of a
larger civic effort to combat the
problems that come from alco­
hol sales at convenience stores
as well as bars and restaurants.
The OLCC recently approved a
petition to study establish of an
“Alcohol Impact Area” in down­
town Portland that would re­
strict bulk sales of alcoholic bev­
erages as well as the sale of
beverages with alcohol content
above certain levels for both beer
and wine.
