Jamul Indian Village attorney Carrie Bonnington said the tribe has taken extra measures to ensure safety for the roads outside of the casino. Several Hollywood Casino restaurants that serve alcohol are contiguous with the casino and are part of the gaming floor.

Some other Indian casinos with dining establishments keep alcohol service away from the gaming areas. The agency handed it off to the California Office of Administrative Hearings earlier this year after a judge overseeing the hearings recused himself.Īttorneys opposed to the liquor license asked Judge Berg that if a permanent license is granted, to at least consider conditions being placed on the casino.Ĭonditions requested by attorney Bill Adams included fewer hours that alcohol can be served, additional security measures, more shuttle buses to keep inebriated drivers from getting onto the road and enforcing limits on locations within the casino where alcohol can be served. The ABC first heard the case last November. “My hope is that the judge will yank the liquor license as soon as possible.” “That’s grossly irresponsible and a recipe for disaster,” she wrote. She said the state made the situation even worse by permitting the sale of alcohol. Although she was not at the hearing, Jacob said in a statement that state officials are to blame for allowing the casino to “directly access one of the most dangerous stretches of rural highway in the region.”
