Definition

Number of audited alcohol-serving businesses that received an Alcohol Board Control compliance check in the past fiscal year. Businesses include both on-premise (bar/restaurant alcohol to be consumed there) and off-premise (gas station/convenience story to be consumed somewhere else)

This measure should be interpreted alongside the related measures: ABC Compliance Checks Passed and ABC Compliance Check Pass Percentage.

Example interpretation using 2024 data: 108 total alcohol-serving businesses were audited by CHPD audited with ABC compliance checks in the 2023-2024 fiscal year; 95 passed, yielding a "pass rate" of 88%.

Story Behind the Curve

ABC stands for Alcoholic Beverage Control. North Carolina is one of 17 states that regulates alcohol purchasing/consumption through a state-controlled system. The ABC compliance checks are performed by local ABC liaison officers or state ALE agents. Compliance checks received are an important performance measure of understanding the consistency of doing the compliance checks. Any observed violations are reported to ABC Legal. Violations could result in a fine and/or license suspension.
