This weekend, restaurants are allowed to open up to 75% capacity and sell alcohol without meals.

Bars and restaurants that have reported a violation are not named as they are being investigated. Each Bureau of Liquor Control Enforcement office publishes details of citations later this month.

A notification of a violation is given before an administrative quote, according to the police, and is intended to inform the institutions which violations have been found. State Police say violations may come up against an administrative quote, and continued violations will jeopardize a company’s alcohol licensing.
