2 results foundAuthor: Tarnai, John Title: Post-Assessment Seattle, Washington Alcohol Impact Areas Summary: The purpose of the evaluation is to assess whether restrictions on the sale of single cans or bottles of high alcohol content products are effective in addressing the problem of chronic public inebriation and to determine whether the restrictions lead to significant changes in the negative impacts of chronic public inebriation. The pre Alcohol Impact Area assessment and this post assessment used similar methods, including a random digit dial (RDD) telephone survey of Seattle residents living in and around the current Alcohol Impact Areas, and a mail survey of retailers with liquor licenses in and around the Alcohol Impact Areas. In addition to these surveys, SESRC conducted qualitative research with Seattle social service workers and with retailers holding liquor licenses within the Alcohol Impact Areas. Secondary data was obtained about emergency medical incidents and alcohol-related police service calls from 2003 to 2008. Data were also obtained on annual taxable revenue from 2004 to 2008 of retailers with liquor licenses in the Seattle Alcohol Impact Areas. The results of the pre-assessment are reported in SESRC Data Report #06-55. The current report presents the results of the post-assessment of the Seattle Alcohol Impact Areas. The study uses multiple methods and multiple analysis groups to obtain information relevant to the assessment of chronic public inebriation in the Alcohol Impact Areas. The methods included a telephone survey of residents, a mail survey of retailers, qualitative interviews of retailers and service providers, and analysis of secondary data sources.

Author: Seattle, Washington Department of Neighborhoods Title: Report on Mandatory Compliance Efforts in the Seattle Alcohol Impact Areas Summary: Mandatory AIAs (Alcohol Impact Areas) that were established in Seattle in November 2006 continue to be an important element of the City’s efforts to address neighborhood public safety issues that are the result of chronic public inebriation. Building on the City of Seattle’s March 2008 Report on Mandatory Compliance Efforts, this progress report provides an analysis of the multiple strategies in place to decrease the effects of chronic public inebriation on the community at large, specifically communities within the Alcohol Impact Areas. This broader strategy was framed in the original 2006 request for establishing Seattle’s Mandatory AIAs. Quantitative data in the March report, required more analysis to better understand the effect of the AIAs. For this report we have delved deeper into the 2007 data and focused our analyses on criteria specific to AIA impact. An analysis of Police data from identical time frames premandatory AIA and post-mandatory AIA found a decrease in offenses related to chronic public inebriation: Adult Liquor Violations, Parks Exclusions, and Criminal Trespass. In addition, the sobering unit van also saw a 9% decrease in pick-ups over the same pre-mandatory AIA and post-mandatory AIA periods of time. Additionally, in this report we provide information on the possible connection between the mandatory AIA policy and the use of the Dutch Shisler Sobering Center, located in downtown Seattle, within the Central Core AIA. Over two identical periods of time pre-mandatory AIA and post-mandatory AIA, the Sobering Center admitted more inebriants during the period of mandatory AIA than prior to the mandatory AIA. Fewer Sobering Center visitors arrived by ESP van during the mandatory AIA than before the mandatory AIA and more visitors arrived at the Sobering Center on their own after the implementation of the mandatory AIA than prior to mandatory AIA. Although the use of the Sobering Center provides another method of decreasing the impacts of chronic public inebriation on the community at large, we realize it is not the solution.
