Oxford Code of Ordinances § 14-86
in effectSec. 14-86. - Purpose.
The identification of purchasers, possessors, or providers of kegs for consumption by underage or intoxicated persons is a major law enforcement, public health and safety concern in the city. When kegs are found where underage persons are present or intoxicated persons have been served, it is necessary to readily identify those responsible for making alcohol available or serving from such kegs. The investigation of crimes involving the furnishing of beer and light wine to minors, and related crimes involving kegs, is inhibited by the inability to identify the purchaser, possessor, or seller of the keg. Individual identification number, purchaser identity information, and retail seller identity information shall enable law enforcement to identify providers of keg alcoholic beverages to underage or intoxicated persons. It is in the public interest to place reasonable keg registration and identification requirement as set forth in this article.
