Facsimi(e: 657 298-5619
RE: Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Blues Saloon, Inc. d/b/a Blues Saloon for the
premises located at 601 Western Avenue North in Saint Paul
License ID #:0049441
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Blues Saloon, Inc. d/b/a Blues Saloon
for the premises located at 601 Western Avenue North in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On May 15, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was conducted
at the premises of the Blues Saloon located at 601 Western
Avenue North in Saint Paul. A sixteen year old female eutered
the store and was able to buy a package of cigarettes at a
vending machine, which was located in an area open to the
public. Although the clerk asked for identification and the
identification correctly stated the date of birth and showed her
to be underage, the clerk nonetheless unloeked the vending
machine so that the sixteen year old could buy a package of
Newport cigarettes.
Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn.
Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §324.07. Selling
cigarettes from a cigarette vending machine in a facility that
can be entered by person younger than 18 years of age is a�
violation of Minn. Stat. §461.18, subd. 2.

Since this is a first violation for the sale of cigazettes to an underage person, the licensing
office will recommend a$200.00 fine. In addition, for the violation of sale from a vending
machine, the licensing office will further recommend that your ci�arette/tobacco license be
suspended until the vending machine is either permanently removed from the premises or has
been moved to another location on the premises that is not accessible to undera�e persons.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
1. 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 and move the vending machine as
indicated above. 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 hearing to
which you are entitled. Additionally, you will need to have an inspector from the
licensing office verify that the vending machine has been removed from the premises or
moved to an acceptable location.
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 Friday, June 8, 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 Councii
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 Friday, June 8, 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 allorved and the
recommended penalty wilI 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.

RE: Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Blues Saloon, Inc. d/b/a Blues Saloon for the
premises located at 601 Western Avenue North in Saint Paul
License ID #:0049441
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Blues Saloon, Inc. d/b/a Blues Saloon
for the premises located at 601 Western Avenue North in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On May 15, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was conducted
at the premises of the Blues Saloon located at 601 Western
Avenue North in Saint Paul. A sixteen year old female eutered
the store and was able to buy a package of cigarettes at a
vending machine, which was located in an area open to the
public. Although the clerk asked for identification and the
identification correctly stated the date of birth and showed her
to be underage, the clerk nonetheless unloeked the vending
machine so that the sixteen year old could buy a package of
Newport cigarettes.
Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn.
Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §324.07. Selling
cigarettes from a cigarette vending machine in a facility that
can be entered by person younger than 18 years of age is a�
violation of Minn. Stat. §461.18, subd. 2.
� Page 2
Blues Saloon
May 29, 2001
o � -� �Y
Since this is a first violation for the sale of cigazettes to an underage person, the licensing
office will recommend a$200.00 fine. In addition, for the violation of sale from a vending
machine, the licensing office will further recommend that your ci�arette/tobacco license be
suspended until the vending machine is either permanently removed from the premises or has
been moved to another location on the premises that is not accessible to undera�e persons.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
1. 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 and move the vending machine as
indicated above. 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 hearing to
which you are entitled. Additionally, you will need to have an inspector from the
licensing office verify that the vending machine has been removed from the premises or
moved to an acceptable location.
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 Friday, June 8, 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 Councii
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 Friday, June 8, 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 allorved and the
recommended penalty wilI be imposed.

also being charged an administrative penalty pursuant to Minn. Stat. §461.12, subd. 3. This is a

RE: Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Blues Saloon, Inc. d/b/a Blues Saloon for the
premises located at 601 Western Avenue North in Saint Paul
License ID #:0049441
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the cigarette/tobacco license held by Blues Saloon, Inc. d/b/a Blues Saloon
for the premises located at 601 Western Avenue North in Saint Paul. The basis for the
recommendation is as follows:
On May 15, 2001, a tobacco compliance check was conducted
at the premises of the Blues Saloon located at 601 Western
Avenue North in Saint Paul. A sixteen year old female eutered
the store and was able to buy a package of cigarettes at a
vending machine, which was located in an area open to the
public. Although the clerk asked for identification and the
identification correctly stated the date of birth and showed her
to be underage, the clerk nonetheless unloeked the vending
machine so that the sixteen year old could buy a package of
Newport cigarettes.
Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn.
Stat. §609.85 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §324.07. Selling
cigarettes from a cigarette vending machine in a facility that
can be entered by person younger than 18 years of age is a�
violation of Minn. Stat. §461.18, subd. 2.
� Page 2
Blues Saloon

o � -� �Y
Since this is a first violation for the sale of cigazettes to an underage person, the licensing
office will recommend a$200.00 fine. In addition, for the violation of sale from a vending
machine, the licensing office will further recommend that your ci�arette/tobacco license be
suspended until the vending machine is either permanently removed from the premises or has
been moved to another location on the premises that is not accessible to undera�e persons.
At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
1. 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 and move the vending machine as
indicated above. 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 hearing to
which you are entitled. Additionally, you will need to have an inspector from the
licensing office verify that the vending machine has been removed from the premises or
moved to an acceptable location.
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 Friday, June 8, 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 Councii
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 Friday, June 8, 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 allorved and the
recommended penalty wilI 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.
