Minor Decoy Operations
The OLCC's minor decoy program is designed to reduce sales to minors and increase ID checking of people who appear under age 26. OLCC staff use this tool to achieve a maximum reduction in illegal alcohol and marijuana sales.
Minors & Alcohol
Keeping alcohol out of the hands of minors is a priority for the OLCC.
ID Checking Classes

Make a Complaint
Most businesses that sell alcohol or marijuana obey the laws and want to be good neighbors. But sometimes problems do occur.
Public safety is our first priority. If you have information on a business that is not obeying laws, we want to know. If you have a complaint about a business that sells alcohol or marijuana, please fill out a Complaint Form and return it to the nearest OLCC office. An inspector will read your report and decide what action to take.
We can enforce the liquor and marijuana laws best when people with a complaint identify themselves and are willing to testify about the incident. We will also take complaints from people who want to remain anonymous or do not want to testify.
