New ordinance opens karaoke clubs to those under 21 where alcohol is served

Karaoke clubs in Clark County will now be able to open their rooms and pass the microphone to customers under the age of 21.

The Clark County Commission approved an ordinance today allowing patrons under the legal drinking age to enter private karaoke rooms in establishments that serve alcohol.

The measure, introduced by Commissioner Justin Jones, removes restrictions that prevented people under 21 from entering those karaoke rooms.

Jones drafted the proposal after discovering a club in his district was cited for allowing underage patrons.

The new ordinance requires those under the legal drinking age be accompanied by someone 21 or older. Clubs also have to submit detailed plans to prevent underage patrons from getting ahold of alcoholic drinks.

Those under 21 still will not be allowed in the clubs after 10 p.m.
