NOTICE OF VIOLATION

Saint Paul, Minnesota 55117
RE: Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Alan Miller, d/b/a Rice Street Spur for the premises at
1440 Rice Street in Saint Paul
License ID #: 0082865
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Alan Miller, d/b/a Rice Street Spur
for the premises at 1440 Rice Street in Saint Paul. The basis for the recommendation is as
foliows:
On February 13, 2002, a tobacco compliance check was
conducted at the premises of Rice Street Spur located at 1440
Rice Streef. A 17-year old female asked to purchase
cigarettes. The cierk did not ask for identification or other
proof of age, and sold her a package of Camel cigarettes.
Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn.
Stat. §609.685 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §32A.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 wiil
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
make payment directiy to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental
Protection, Room 300 I.owry Professional Building, 350 Saint Peter Street, Saint Paui,
Minnesota 55102. The letter should be directed to Ms. Christine Rozek. Payment of the
fine wiil be considered to be a waiver of the hearing to which you are entitied. 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
admittin� the violation and requesting a public hearing. We will need to receive your
letter by Thursday, March 14, 2002. 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 oppor[unity to appeaz before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
3. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing wiil be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing both you and the City will be able to appeaz and present
wimesses, 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 Thursday, March 14, 2002, 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 allowed and the
recommended penalty wiil be imposed.
Please be advised that the clerk who was identified as having made the sale on this date is
also being chazged 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,

NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Alan Miller
Rice Street Spur
1440 Rice Street
Saint Paul, Minnesota 55117
RE: Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Alan Miller, d/b/a Rice Street Spur for the premises at
1440 Rice Street in Saint Paul
License ID #: 0082865
Dear Sir/Madam:
The Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection has recommended
adverse action against the Cigarette/Tobacco License held by Alan Miller, d/b/a Rice Street Spur
for the premises at 1440 Rice Street in Saint Paul. The basis for the recommendation is as
foliows:
On February 13, 2002, a tobacco compliance check was
conducted at the premises of Rice Street Spur located at 1440
Rice Streef. A 17-year old female asked to purchase
cigarettes. The cierk did not ask for identification or other
proof of age, and sold her a package of Camel cigarettes.
Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn.
Stat. §609.685 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §32A.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 wiil
need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, you should
make payment directiy to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental
Protection, Room 300 I.owry Professional Building, 350 Saint Peter Street, Saint Paui,
Minnesota 55102. The letter should be directed to Ms. Christine Rozek. Payment of the
fine wiil be considered to be a waiver of the hearing to which you are entitied. 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
admittin� the violation and requesting a public hearing. We will need to receive your
letter by Thursday, March 14, 2002. 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 oppor[unity to appeaz before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
3. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing wiil be scheduled before an Administrative
Law Judge. At that hearing both you and the City will be able to appeaz and present
wimesses, 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 Thursday, March 14, 2002, 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 allowed and the
recommended penalty wiil be imposed.
Please be advised that the clerk who was identified as having made the sale on this date is
also being chazged 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,
