RE: Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Gilberto Alanis d/b/a El Amenecer Market for the
premises located at 806 East 7` Street in Saint Paul
License ID #: 20000003267
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Gilberto Alanis d/b/a El Amenecer
Market for the premises located at 806 E. 7` Street in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On October 24, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was
conducted at the premises of the El Amenecer Market located
at 806 E. 7` Street. A 15-year old female asked to purchase
cigarettes. The clerk asked for identification and the fifteen
year old showed identification which properly listed her date
of birth and showed her to be underage. Nevertheless, the
clerk sold her a package of Marlboro Light cigarettes.
Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn.
Stat. §609.685 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §324.07.
Since this is a second violation, the licensing office will recommend a�400.00 fine.

El Amanecer Market
November 7, 2001
At this time you have three options on ho�v to proceed:
O l -l'� O�
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearin�, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
make payment directly to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental
Protection, Room 300 Lowry Professional Building, 350 Saint Peter Street, Saint Paul,
Minnesota 55102. The letter should be directed to Ms. Christine Rozek. Payment of the
fine will be considered to be a waiver of the hearin� to which you are entitled. A self-
addressed envelope is enclosed if this is your choice.
2. Altematively, if you do not dispute the above facts, but wish to have a public hearing
before the Saint Paul City Council, you will need to send me a letter with a statement
admitting the violation and requesting a public hearing. We will need to receive your
letter by Monday, November 19, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You will have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
3. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearin� both you and the City will be able to appear and present
witnesses, evidence and cross-examine the other's witnesses. The St. Paul City Council
will ultimately decide the case. If this is your choice, please advise my legal assistant,
Peter Pangbom, and we will take the necessary steps to schedule the administrative
hearing. He can be reached at 266-8710.
If we have not heard from you by Monday, November 19, 2001, we will assume that
you do not contest the facts and will schedule this matter for the St. Paul City Council and
have it placed on the Consent Agenda during which no public discussion is allotved and the
recommended penalty �vill be imposed.
Please be advised that the clerk who was identified as having made the sale on this date is
also being charged an administrative penalty pursuant to Minn. Stat. §461.12, subd. 3. This is a
separate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.
Sincerely,
