'^ /C lraF i. /!I July 31, 1911.
To the Honorable President and Members
of the City Council, Salt Lake City, Utah.
Gentlemen:-
In the matter No. 62, being an ordinance introduced into the City
Council by Mr. Fernstrom, repealing and re-enacting Chapter 24, relating
to intoxicating liquors, referred to this office on July 24, 1911, for an
opinion, I would respectfully say:
Heretofore I have sent a communication to the City Council relating
to the expedienoy of passing a liquor ordinance. Now I am directed, as
I understand, to give an opinion with reference to the legality of such
an ordinance, and with pertain exceptions hereafter referred to, it is my
judgment that an ordinance: like that presented by Councilman Fernstrom is
unlawful, illegal and contrary to law. I have arrived at this conclusion
after the exemin tielli imuercniS euttbytitters and of the liquor statute
itself.
The general rule of law 11s held by a large majority of the states is
that when the state has legislated fully upon a particular subject, a pity
council has no right to legislate upon the same subject unless the power
to do so is expressly conferred upon that body.
4As we all kpow, the legislature has with great particularity legis-
lated upon all phases of the sale of intoxicating liquors, except that in
E. I
-2-
two or three partioulars it has left the matter to the legislative power
of the oity oounoil.
Before the act of the last legislature in regard to liquor licenses
was passed, the city council by *tt= Subdivision 41 of Section 206, was
empowered "to license and regulate or prohibit the manufacture, selling,
giving away, or disposition in any manner of any intoxicating, malt, <
vinous or fermented liquor x at x x , and to determine the amount to be
paid for such license; and such license shall be subject to the same res-
trictions as required by the general laws of the stater &a. So that the
city council was authorized to legislate with reference to the whole sub-
ject of intoxicating liquors by the section above quoted. The section
above quoted was amended by the Laws of 1911, Chapter 120, at page 212,
and is now Section 206x41, which provides, so far as licensing and regu-
lating and prohibiting the manufacture and sale, &c, of liquor, the same
as the wialm old section; but where it speaks with reference to enacting
an ordinance in regard thereto, says: "And in any oity where the qualified
electors have voted for sale of intoxicating liquors, such city council
shall have the right to determine the amount to be paid for liquor license
r:
as provided by law, and said license shall be subject to the same xastxix-
regulations as are required by the general laws of the state; and to pro-
vide such other reasonable regulations as the oounoil shall deem advis-
able." In my opinion this new section 206x41 does not apply to pities of
the first class, but to cities of the third class, where their city
councils grant licenses. But if it can be construed in any way to apply
to Salt Lake City, it will be notioed that the only thing that is left to
the city council to do is to determine the amount to be paid for liquor
}
I �
-3-
licenses, and provide for such other reasonable regulations aside from
those contained in the general laws as the council may deem advisable.
So that there is no power conferred upon the oity council as an original
proposition to pass ordinances for the enforcement or the control of the
liquor business, that power having been taken away by Section 206x41,
and Chapter 106 of the Laws of 1911. Chapter 106 of the Laws of 1911,
which is the new liquor law, goes fully into all the questions that can
possibly arise in the sale of intoxicating liquors, and that ohapter con-
fers certain speoifio powers upon city councils and no others; that is
Section 5 provides that the mayor and city council in their respective
cities, &o, shall from time to time determine and fix the limits of the
business district; and Section 7 provides that the city councils shall
fix the amount of license to be paid, and by somewhat of a stretch of
imagination, by Section 8 the council has a right to fix when the license
shall be paid. Section 25 permits the pity council to fix the hours
within which intoxicating liquors may be sold not later than twelve o'clock
at night on week days. Aside from those provisions, there is nothing
whatever in the act which confers any power upon the oity council, and it
would seem from Section 68 that the legislature intended that the oity
council should not pass a law regulating the sale of intoxicating liquors,
because that section reads, "Nothing in this sot contained shall prevent
or prohibit any city council x x x x from enacting restrictions upon and
regulations of the traffic in intoxicating liquors in addition to but
not in conflict with the provisions of this act." That is, by construction
the city council could only legislate upon the subjects specially indi-
cated in the aot, and other regulations in addition to those set out in
'
{ j
-4-
the bill. In my judgment the words "in addition to" are to be construed
as a restriction upon the authority of the oity council to legislate upon
the liquor subject.
It will be noticed that no place in this law, Chapter 106, nor in
Section 206x41 is there any express power conferred upon the city council
to legislate upon the intoxicating liquor subject except as noted abive.
Referring now to the ordinance introduced by Mr. Fernstrom, what
would be Section 4 of the ordinance prepared by Mr. Fernstrom, relating
to the business district, is in accordance with the power specially con-
ferred upon the city council by Chapter 106 aforesaid. What would be
Section 5 if the sections had been numbered, which fixes the amount of
the license, is all right and in conformity with the law, and in my judg-
ment there should be added after that how it may be paid. There are no
other sections in the ordinance presented by Mr. Fernstrom which are
restrictions upon and regulations of the traffic in intoxicating liquors
in addition to those contained in Chapter 106, except what would be Sec-
tions 36 and 37 if they were numbered. Section 36 makes it the duty of
the Chief of £olioe to at least four times a year inspect all premises
where intoxicating liquors are sold, for the purpose of ascertaining if
the licensee is oomplying with the ordinance, and to report the condition
of such premises, on or about the 15th days of September, December, March
and June, and also whether any complaint or conviction has been rendered
against any licensee during the preceding three months. Of course the
council has the power 'le pass that section, but what good it can do I am
-5-
unable to see, except as an additional duty placed upon the Chief of
Police, because whatever his report would be, the city council has no
power to revoke a license, or to refuse a license. It may, however, be
of importance that the city council may communicate the facts contained in
such report to the District *curt when, some offender has applied for a
license. Section 37 provides that any rooming house, hotel or merchant
holding a license to do business in this city violating this ordinance by
selling liquor without a licence, if convicted a second time,- shall be
declared a nuisance and shall not be permitted to operate any rooming
house, hotel or any business thnt requires a license. I suppose it is
within the power of the Council to pass that section, but it would seem
to me that it is not germane to the subject. of licensing persons to sell
intoxicating liquors.
What would be Section 38 of the ordinance presented by l,;r. Fernstrom,
is the penalty clause. That penalty clause, all of it, conflicts with the
powers conferred upon the city council under Section 206x87 of Chapter
120 of the Laws of 1911. That part of the penalty clause where it pro-
vides for the punishment of a corporation in any sum from e1,000.00 to
e5,000.00 never could be carried out.
My conclusion from all which is that an ordinance such as was intro-
duced by Mr. Fernstrom, except in the particulars where the council is
called upon to legislate as to the boundaries of the business district, 'Ws
amount of license, and the time when it may be paid, the closing hours,
and the additional section in regard to the Chief of olice examining and
making a report is without 4,e.J. .mt 02 lew, any. '_ _' )assed by the City
•
-6.-
Council would be void.
One reason advanced, as I understand, for the enactment of this
ordinance, was to compel the police force of this city to enforce the
liquor law. Of °ours. that position has no foundation in law, as the chief
of police and every police officer is a state officer and charged with
the enforcement of the state laws as well as of the ordinances of the
city, and it is the duty of every police officer to arrest any person
violating the laws of the state the same as if there was an ordinance of
the city covering the same offense.
Very respectfully',
