NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Saint Paul, Minnesota 55104
RE: Cigazette/Tobacco License held by Turf Club, Inc. d/b/a Turf Club for the premises
located at 1601 University Avenue West in Saint Paul
License ID #:0023583
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Turf Club, Inc. d/b/a Turf Club for
the premises located at 1601 University Avenue West in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On Apri122, 2001, a tobacco compliance check �vas conducted
at the premises of the Turf Club located at 1601 University
Avenue West in Saint Paul. A sixteen year old male entered
the store and asked to purchase cigarettes. He was asked for,
and did show his identification, which correctly stated his date
of birth. The clerk nevertheless sold him a package of
Marlboro cigarettes. Sale of tobacco to an underage person is
a violation of Minn. Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul Legislative
Code §324.07.
Since this is a first violation, the licensing office will recommend a$200.00 fine.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearing, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
Page 2
Turf Club
April 25, 2001
o�-c.Z�
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 hearing to which you are entitled.
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, May 7, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You wiil have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing 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 Pangborn, 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, May 7, 2001, �ve 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 allowed and the
recommended penalty will 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
sepazate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.
Sincerely,
✓/���

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

RE: Cigazette/Tobacco License held by Turf Club, Inc. d/b/a Turf Club for the premises
located at 1601 University Avenue West in Saint Paul
License ID #:0023583
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Turf Club, Inc. d/b/a Turf Club for
the premises located at 1601 University Avenue West in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On Apri122, 2001, a tobacco compliance check �vas conducted
at the premises of the Turf Club located at 1601 University
Avenue West in Saint Paul. A sixteen year old male entered
the store and asked to purchase cigarettes. He was asked for,
and did show his identification, which correctly stated his date
of birth. The clerk nevertheless sold him a package of
Marlboro cigarettes. Sale of tobacco to an underage person is
a violation of Minn. Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul Legislative
Code §324.07.
Since this is a first violation, the licensing office will recommend a$200.00 fine.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearing, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
Page 2
Turf Club
April 25, 2001
o�-c.Z�
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 hearing to which you are entitled.
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, May 7, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You wiil have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing 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 Pangborn, 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, May 7, 2001, �ve 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 allowed and the
recommended penalty will 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
sepazate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.
Sincerely,
✓/���

NOTICE OF VIOLATION

RE: Cigazette/Tobacco License held by Turf Club, Inc. d/b/a Turf Club for the premises
located at 1601 University Avenue West in Saint Paul
License ID #:0023583
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Turf Club, Inc. d/b/a Turf Club for
the premises located at 1601 University Avenue West in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On Apri122, 2001, a tobacco compliance check �vas conducted
at the premises of the Turf Club located at 1601 University
Avenue West in Saint Paul. A sixteen year old male entered
the store and asked to purchase cigarettes. He was asked for,
and did show his identification, which correctly stated his date
of birth. The clerk nevertheless sold him a package of
Marlboro cigarettes. Sale of tobacco to an underage person is
a violation of Minn. Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul Legislative
Code §324.07.
Since this is a first violation, the licensing office will recommend a$200.00 fine.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
If you do not dispute the above facts and do not wish to have a public hearing, you will
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
Page 2
Turf Club
April 25, 2001
o�-c.Z�
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 hearing to which you are entitled.
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, May 7, 2001. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You wiil have
an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing 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 Pangborn, 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, May 7, 2001, �ve 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 allowed and the
recommended penalty will 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
sepazate action from this license matter. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me
at (651) 266-8710.
Sincerely,
✓/���
