MAMARONECK, NY (October 23, 2025) — The Village of Mamaroneck Police Department, in collaboration with the Westchester County Department of Public Safety, conducted an underage alcohol sales to minors compliance check at local establishments on Oct. 22, 2025.
The operation targeted Village businesses to inspect and verify adherence to New York State law prohibiting alcohol sales to those under 21. Specifically, Section 65 of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law states: “$65. Prohibited sales. No person shall sell, deliver or give away or cause or permit or procure to be sold, delivered or given away any alcoholic beverages to 1. Any person, actually or apparently, under the age of twenty-one years.”
The New York State Liquor Authority, or SLA, and its agency, the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control, or ABC, were established as part of the ABC Law in 1934. The law was enacted by the Legislature to provide for the protection, health, welfare and safety of the people of the State.
Results of the Mamaroneck compliance check found several establishments not in compliance.
Those establishments were Station Liquors at 137 Halstead Ave. and Lopez Grocery at 653 Old White Plains Rd.
Summonses were issued to those establishments, and State Liquor Authority referrals were completed.
