Deaz Ms, Palmer,
Y0. ap17 P. 2
Thank you for taking the time to talk witfi me. I am responding to tfie Notice of Viola�on
letter you send on August 7, 2000. Based on our current informatian, we do not have
grounds to contest the determination that the Fiazdee's of Mid�vay hari unsatisfactory
inspecrions in June and Ju1y. However, we are looking into the particulazs regazding the
reporu and at a minimum want to preserve all rights to a public heazing before the City
Council to explain the situation and azgue the appropriate penalty. Our main objective,
howevez, is to provide you with information that can resolve the problem now and
without council action.
I am the Director of Quatity Assurance for Aardee's Food Systems, Inc. T am located at
our corporate office in North Cazolina. It is my responsibilicy to work with our
restaurants' management and regulatory agencies to assure food safety, product quality
and regulatory compiiance. We have recently employed a staff of field penonnel to
coaduct regulazly scheduled and unannounced food safety and quality audits in all of ovr
restaurants. 7he siruation at the Midway unit was immediaiely brought to my attention.
wiil continue to stay involved with the issues there until that restaurant is meeting the
requirements ofthe city of Saint Paul as well as the standazds that are Tequired of all
Hazdee's restanrants.
The restaurant is currently operating under a stay of suspension. Your lecter informed as
that inspections in June and 3uly failed to meet the requirements to continue operaiing
under the stay agreement. Unfortunately, the curzent management in charge of that
restaurant was not avrare of those violations or even that the resiaurdnt was operating
under a stay ageemenL I want to take this opportunity to explain how this occurred.
This restaurant had not been meeting Fiardee's sfandazds for some time. Therefore, the
entire management team that was previously invoived with the operarion of the Midway
restaurant has been replaced. We have assigned a new Regional Director of Opezaaons
and 6cought in a new District Manager, General Manager and Facilities Manager. As you
and I discussed, it seems that management has been the main problem with the operation
of this restauiant. It is our belief that this new team can turn things azound at Hazdee's of
�Iidway.

I would like to explain why we aze confident this team is different from the previous
Management, Prior to this team taking over, this region ranked at the bottom of our
puformance rankings. They aze cunendy ranked second out of our fiftern regions for all
financial objecrives. They have already tumed IS of the 20 restaurants in the'u Region
azound. Mosi imperrancly, this region will no longer be managed remotely by a person
in Wisconsin. Dan Zeliff is the new Regional D'uector oi Operarions. Dan, his wi£e and
five children live in the local community and relocated to the region a littie ovec ninety
days ago from a proven region in the state of Alabama.
Upon Dan's arrival his fixst t�sk was to staff the stores in the 4linnesota region. Only
fourteen of the twenty stores had a Genezal Manager. Dan immediately, at greac expense,
brought expeiienced managess from afl ovez the country to assist with the issues here.
Duzing this timeframe Dan was able to recruit, hize and develop a manager foz evezy
location.
IJnfortunatefy, before Dan could place a qualified manager into Hazdee's of Midway the
outside managers were called back to supezvise their regulazly assigned restaurants.
Finally, on August 7`" Dan was able to staff every locarion utilizing his new management
and placing a proven General Manager, Glenn Levine, into the Midway location. Glenn
immediately terminated the remainder of the staff for disciplinazy reasons. With this new
staff and in just one week the store increased sales by twenty percent. We believe he is
well on his way to bringing this restaurant back up to the standuds expected for all
Hardee's restaurants.
Dan was also able to place a proven District Manager over the Midway location by
relocating him and his two children from AJabama to the Minnesota azea. He also, at
great expense, relocated a Faciliries Technician to assist in addressing the facility issues
as well. All the outside support from other proven azeas of the country aze now
permanentIy (ocated an the state of Minnesota to continue the progress in this state.
Regarding the 7une and July inspections, I am confident that all of the de5ciencies noted
either have been or aze beiug cortected.
We aze confident these changes will assure immediate and conrinued positive changes for
the Midway location. We hope the City of Saint Paul agrees and wi11 consider allowing
the restautant io concinue operating under the stay agrezment. We would therefore
request the opportuniry for Ban and me to visit wit4i you and the appzopriate pezsonnel
from the Office of License, Inspeetions and Environmental Pzotection to discuss a
possible altemative to revoking the stay of suspension?

RE: All licenses held by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., d1b{a Hardee's of Midway
for the premises located at 369 Hamline Ave.1V. in St. Paul
License ID No.:17430
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the licenses held by Hazdee's Food Systems, Inc. d/b/a Hazdee's of
Midway, for the premises located at 369 Hamline Avenue North. The basis for the adverse
action is as follows:
On September 30,1999 an insQecfion was done of the premises
in response to a complaint by a customer that the restrooms
were filthy and employees were out back smoking. The
investigation found evidence of a filthy toilet in the women's
restroom, coated with feces, and found no disposable towels in
the men's room, nor was the hand drying device in working
order. There were forty-four violation orders issued, and the
fotal score for the facility was a 53. A number of the violations
were health or sanitation related, including failure to fiave
sanitizers used for wiping food preparafion surfaces,
employees coming back from break without washing hands
prior to preparing and serving foods, and maintaining foods at
improper temperatures. This is the fifth inspection since April
of 1998, all of them conducted as a result of receiving
compiaints that the establishment was generally filthy.

RE: Restaurant -B license heid by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., dlb/a Hazdee's of Midway,
for the premises located at 369 Hamline Avenue North in Saint Paul -
L'acense IA #: 0017430
Dear Sir�adam:
On January 12, 2000, the Saint Paul City Council imposed adverse action a�ainst the
Restaurant B license held by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., d/b/a Hardee's of Midway, for the
premises located at 369 Hamiine Avenue North in Saint Paul. Part of the adverse action included
a 30-day iicense suspension, which was stayed for a period of eighteen months on three
conditions, one of which was that the premises wouid be inspected at least monthly during that
18-month period, and that the stay of the suspension could be revoked if the establishment had an
unsatisfactory score, defined as three or more criticai violations.
On June 28, 2000, the inspection showed rivenry-two (22) violations, of which three were
considered critical. On July 24, 2000, the inspection sho�ved twenty-seven (27) violations, of
which five were considered critical. Because the inspections aze showing unsatisfactory scores,
the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection will be recommending to the
City Council that the stay of the 30-day suspension of the Restaurant-B license be revoked.
You are entitled to a hearing to contest the determination that you received an.
unsatisfactory score. If you wish to have a hearing, you should send me a statement in writin�
that you wish to contest the determination that you had unsatisfactory inspections in .Tune and
July. If you wish to admit the fact that your inspections resulted in unsatisfac[ory scores, you
may send a statement indicatin� that you aze willin� to �o to a public hearing before the Saint
Paul City Council to azgue the appropriate penalty. Please contact me no later than Au�ust 21,
2000 to let me know how you wish to proceed. If I have not heard from you by that date, I will

most recent inspections, and will schedule the matter before the Saint Paul City-CounciI to

Deaz Ms, Palmer,
Y0. ap17 P. 2
Thank you for taking the time to talk witfi me. I am responding to tfie Notice of Viola�on
letter you send on August 7, 2000. Based on our current informatian, we do not have
grounds to contest the determination that the Fiazdee's of Mid�vay hari unsatisfactory
inspecrions in June and Ju1y. However, we are looking into the particulazs regazding the
reporu and at a minimum want to preserve all rights to a public heazing before the City
Council to explain the situation and azgue the appropriate penalty. Our main objective,
howevez, is to provide you with information that can resolve the problem now and
without council action.
I am the Director of Quatity Assurance for Aardee's Food Systems, Inc. T am located at
our corporate office in North Cazolina. It is my responsibilicy to work with our
restaurants' management and regulatory agencies to assure food safety, product quality
and regulatory compiiance. We have recently employed a staff of field penonnel to
coaduct regulazly scheduled and unannounced food safety and quality audits in all of ovr
restaurants. 7he siruation at the Midway unit was immediaiely brought to my attention.
wiil continue to stay involved with the issues there until that restaurant is meeting the
requirements ofthe city of Saint Paul as well as the standazds that are Tequired of all
Hazdee's restanrants.
The restaurant is currently operating under a stay of suspension. Your lecter informed as
that inspections in June and 3uly failed to meet the requirements to continue operaiing
under the stay agreement. Unfortunately, the curzent management in charge of that
restaurant was not avrare of those violations or even that the resiaurdnt was operating
under a stay ageemenL I want to take this opportunity to explain how this occurred.
This restaurant had not been meeting Fiardee's sfandazds for some time. Therefore, the
entire management team that was previously invoived with the operarion of the Midway
restaurant has been replaced. We have assigned a new Regional Director of Opezaaons
and 6cought in a new District Manager, General Manager and Facilities Manager. As you
and I discussed, it seems that management has been the main problem with the operation
of this restauiant. It is our belief that this new team can turn things azound at Hazdee's of
�Iidway.

I would like to explain why we aze confident this team is different from the previous
Management, Prior to this team taking over, this region ranked at the bottom of our
puformance rankings. They aze cunendy ranked second out of our fiftern regions for all
financial objecrives. They have already tumed IS of the 20 restaurants in the'u Region
azound. Mosi imperrancly, this region will no longer be managed remotely by a person
in Wisconsin. Dan Zeliff is the new Regional D'uector oi Operarions. Dan, his wi£e and
five children live in the local community and relocated to the region a littie ovec ninety
days ago from a proven region in the state of Alabama.
Upon Dan's arrival his fixst t�sk was to staff the stores in the 4linnesota region. Only
fourteen of the twenty stores had a Genezal Manager. Dan immediately, at greac expense,
brought expeiienced managess from afl ovez the country to assist with the issues here.
Duzing this timeframe Dan was able to recruit, hize and develop a manager foz evezy
location.
IJnfortunatefy, before Dan could place a qualified manager into Hazdee's of Midway the
outside managers were called back to supezvise their regulazly assigned restaurants.
Finally, on August 7`" Dan was able to staff every locarion utilizing his new management
and placing a proven General Manager, Glenn Levine, into the Midway location. Glenn
immediately terminated the remainder of the staff for disciplinazy reasons. With this new
staff and in just one week the store increased sales by twenty percent. We believe he is
well on his way to bringing this restaurant back up to the standuds expected for all
Hardee's restaurants.
Dan was also able to place a proven District Manager over the Midway location by
relocating him and his two children from AJabama to the Minnesota azea. He also, at
great expense, relocated a Faciliries Technician to assist in addressing the facility issues
as well. All the outside support from other proven azeas of the country aze now
permanentIy (ocated an the state of Minnesota to continue the progress in this state.
Regarding the 7une and July inspections, I am confident that all of the de5ciencies noted
either have been or aze beiug cortected.
We aze confident these changes will assure immediate and conrinued positive changes for
the Midway location. We hope the City of Saint Paul agrees and wi11 consider allowing
the restautant io concinue operating under the stay agrezment. We would therefore
request the opportuniry for Ban and me to visit wit4i you and the appzopriate pezsonnel
from the Office of License, Inspeetions and Environmental Pzotection to discuss a
possible altemative to revoking the stay of suspension?

RE: All licenses held by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., d1b{a Hardee's of Midway
for the premises located at 369 Hamline Ave.1V. in St. Paul
License ID No.:17430
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the licenses held by Hazdee's Food Systems, Inc. d/b/a Hazdee's of
Midway, for the premises located at 369 Hamline Avenue North. The basis for the adverse
action is as follows:
On September 30,1999 an insQecfion was done of the premises
in response to a complaint by a customer that the restrooms
were filthy and employees were out back smoking. The
investigation found evidence of a filthy toilet in the women's
restroom, coated with feces, and found no disposable towels in
the men's room, nor was the hand drying device in working
order. There were forty-four violation orders issued, and the
fotal score for the facility was a 53. A number of the violations
were health or sanitation related, including failure to fiave
sanitizers used for wiping food preparafion surfaces,
employees coming back from break without washing hands
prior to preparing and serving foods, and maintaining foods at
improper temperatures. This is the fifth inspection since April
of 1998, all of them conducted as a result of receiving
compiaints that the establishment was generally filthy.

RE: Restaurant -B license heid by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., dlb/a Hazdee's of Midway,
for the premises located at 369 Hamline Avenue North in Saint Paul -

Dear Sir�adam:
On January 12, 2000, the Saint Paul City Council imposed adverse action a�ainst the
Restaurant B license held by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., d/b/a Hardee's of Midway, for the
premises located at 369 Hamiine Avenue North in Saint Paul. Part of the adverse action included
a 30-day iicense suspension, which was stayed for a period of eighteen months on three
conditions, one of which was that the premises wouid be inspected at least monthly during that
18-month period, and that the stay of the suspension could be revoked if the establishment had an
unsatisfactory score, defined as three or more criticai violations.
On June 28, 2000, the inspection showed rivenry-two (22) violations, of which three were
considered critical. On July 24, 2000, the inspection sho�ved twenty-seven (27) violations, of
which five were considered critical. Because the inspections aze showing unsatisfactory scores,
the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection will be recommending to the
City Council that the stay of the 30-day suspension of the Restaurant-B license be revoked.
You are entitled to a hearing to contest the determination that you received an.
unsatisfactory score. If you wish to have a hearing, you should send me a statement in writin�
that you wish to contest the determination that you had unsatisfactory inspections in .Tune and
July. If you wish to admit the fact that your inspections resulted in unsatisfac[ory scores, you
may send a statement indicatin� that you aze willin� to �o to a public hearing before the Saint
Paul City Council to azgue the appropriate penalty. Please contact me no later than Au�ust 21,
2000 to let me know how you wish to proceed. If I have not heard from you by that date, I will

most recent inspections, and will schedule the matter before the Saint Paul City-CounciI to

Deaz Ms, Palmer,
Y0. ap17 P. 2
Thank you for taking the time to talk witfi me. I am responding to tfie Notice of Viola�on
letter you send on August 7, 2000. Based on our current informatian, we do not have
grounds to contest the determination that the Fiazdee's of Mid�vay hari unsatisfactory
inspecrions in June and Ju1y. However, we are looking into the particulazs regazding the
reporu and at a minimum want to preserve all rights to a public heazing before the City
Council to explain the situation and azgue the appropriate penalty. Our main objective,
howevez, is to provide you with information that can resolve the problem now and
without council action.
I am the Director of Quatity Assurance for Aardee's Food Systems, Inc. T am located at
our corporate office in North Cazolina. It is my responsibilicy to work with our
restaurants' management and regulatory agencies to assure food safety, product quality
and regulatory compiiance. We have recently employed a staff of field penonnel to
coaduct regulazly scheduled and unannounced food safety and quality audits in all of ovr
restaurants. 7he siruation at the Midway unit was immediaiely brought to my attention.
wiil continue to stay involved with the issues there until that restaurant is meeting the
requirements ofthe city of Saint Paul as well as the standazds that are Tequired of all
Hazdee's restanrants.
The restaurant is currently operating under a stay of suspension. Your lecter informed as
that inspections in June and 3uly failed to meet the requirements to continue operaiing
under the stay agreement. Unfortunately, the curzent management in charge of that
restaurant was not avrare of those violations or even that the resiaurdnt was operating
under a stay ageemenL I want to take this opportunity to explain how this occurred.
This restaurant had not been meeting Fiardee's sfandazds for some time. Therefore, the
entire management team that was previously invoived with the operarion of the Midway
restaurant has been replaced. We have assigned a new Regional Director of Opezaaons
and 6cought in a new District Manager, General Manager and Facilities Manager. As you
and I discussed, it seems that management has been the main problem with the operation
of this restauiant. It is our belief that this new team can turn things azound at Hazdee's of
�Iidway.

I would like to explain why we aze confident this team is different from the previous
Management, Prior to this team taking over, this region ranked at the bottom of our
puformance rankings. They aze cunendy ranked second out of our fiftern regions for all
financial objecrives. They have already tumed IS of the 20 restaurants in the'u Region
azound. Mosi imperrancly, this region will no longer be managed remotely by a person
in Wisconsin. Dan Zeliff is the new Regional D'uector oi Operarions. Dan, his wi£e and
five children live in the local community and relocated to the region a littie ovec ninety
days ago from a proven region in the state of Alabama.
Upon Dan's arrival his fixst t�sk was to staff the stores in the 4linnesota region. Only
fourteen of the twenty stores had a Genezal Manager. Dan immediately, at greac expense,
brought expeiienced managess from afl ovez the country to assist with the issues here.
Duzing this timeframe Dan was able to recruit, hize and develop a manager foz evezy
location.
IJnfortunatefy, before Dan could place a qualified manager into Hazdee's of Midway the
outside managers were called back to supezvise their regulazly assigned restaurants.
Finally, on August 7`" Dan was able to staff every locarion utilizing his new management
and placing a proven General Manager, Glenn Levine, into the Midway location. Glenn
immediately terminated the remainder of the staff for disciplinazy reasons. With this new
staff and in just one week the store increased sales by twenty percent. We believe he is
well on his way to bringing this restaurant back up to the standuds expected for all
Hardee's restaurants.
Dan was also able to place a proven District Manager over the Midway location by
relocating him and his two children from AJabama to the Minnesota azea. He also, at
great expense, relocated a Faciliries Technician to assist in addressing the facility issues
as well. All the outside support from other proven azeas of the country aze now
permanentIy (ocated an the state of Minnesota to continue the progress in this state.
Regarding the 7une and July inspections, I am confident that all of the de5ciencies noted
either have been or aze beiug cortected.
We aze confident these changes will assure immediate and conrinued positive changes for
the Midway location. We hope the City of Saint Paul agrees and wi11 consider allowing
the restautant io concinue operating under the stay agrezment. We would therefore
request the opportuniry for Ban and me to visit wit4i you and the appzopriate pezsonnel
from the Office of License, Inspeetions and Environmental Pzotection to discuss a
possible altemative to revoking the stay of suspension?

RE: All licenses held by Hardee's Food Systems, Inc., d1b{a Hardee's of Midway
for the premises located at 369 Hamline Ave.1V. in St. Paul
License ID No.:17430
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the licenses held by Hazdee's Food Systems, Inc. d/b/a Hazdee's of
Midway, for the premises located at 369 Hamline Avenue North. The basis for the adverse
action is as follows:
On September 30,1999 an insQecfion was done of the premises
in response to a complaint by a customer that the restrooms
were filthy and employees were out back smoking. The
investigation found evidence of a filthy toilet in the women's
restroom, coated with feces, and found no disposable towels in
the men's room, nor was the hand drying device in working
order. There were forty-four violation orders issued, and the
fotal score for the facility was a 53. A number of the violations
were health or sanitation related, including failure to fiave
sanitizers used for wiping food preparafion surfaces,
employees coming back from break without washing hands
prior to preparing and serving foods, and maintaining foods at
improper temperatures. This is the fifth inspection since April
of 1998, all of them conducted as a result of receiving
compiaints that the establishment was generally filthy.
