When the police make the first response within a twelve-month period to an alcohol-related nuisance activity attributable to an alcoholic beverage sales establishment within the city, and a police officer issues a citation for violation of this chapter, the officer shall, in writing, inform a responsible person that:

A. An alcohol-related nuisance activity attributable to an alcoholic beverage sales establishment has occurred; and

B. If, upon reexamination, the nuisance condition is not abated within thirty days of the date of the initial response, the responsible person(s) may be charged for any response costs incurred for subsequent responses to the property for an alcohol-related nuisance activity attributable to an alcoholic beverage sales establishment within a twelve-month period.

Within thirty calendar days of the initial citation, an additional written warning shall be transmitted via certified mail to the licensee at the address in the city’s business license file for the alcoholic beverage sales establishment.

When a police officer responds to an alcohol-related nuisance activity attributable to an alcoholic beverage sales establishment within the city within twelve months of a citation and warning given to a responsible person at the same alcoholic beverage sales establishment, and such officer issues a second or subsequent citation pursuant to this chapter, all responsible person(s) shall be jointly and severally liable for the city’s response costs concerning such second or subsequent alcohol-related nuisance activity attributable to an alcoholic beverage sales establishment, but only to the extent that such responsible person(s) concerning the first citation remain responsible person(s) for the second or subsequent citations at such establishment.
