Three Kirkland businesses were recently cited for providing alcohol to minors during compliance checks by the Washington Liquor and Cannabis Control board.

The compliance checks, which took place on July 14, ended with citations for Rose Hill Hideout, Central Club and Pub 85. All three citations were for first-time offenses, and can carry a $500 fine or a five-day suspension of the location’s liquor license.

The state checked 12 locations, including Sluggers Sports Bar & Grill, Lucky 7 Bar and Grill, Liquid Lime, Casino Caribbean, Time Out, The 10-pin Tap and Tony’s Bar and Grill.

Investigative aids, which are 18-20 years old, assist officers in compliance checks according to a release from the Washington Liquor and Cannabis Control Board. The aids must present true identification when asked.
