Statesboro officials propose to employ an alcoholic beverage control officer, a certified police officer assigned duties such as enforcement of the minimum drinking age of 21, in the new fiscal year. The budget requests received by City Council at its early-April retreat showed a new Alcoholic Beverage Control Fund with $92,346 in projected expenses and $109,000 in recommended revenue. But the suggestion that most of the money would come from a $1,000 increase in the annual cost of each alcoholic beverage license brought objections and reconsideration.
