MN (License ID No. #20040000110) Dear Mr. Hassan: The Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection (LIEP) has recommended adverse action against the taxicab vehicle license held by Mohamed Abdulahi Hassan for the City of Saint. The basis for the recommendation is as follows: On September 17, 2004 you were sent a letter from the Office LIEP requesting license renewal and current insurance information with no lapse in coverage on Five Star cab #303. As of today's date the license has not been renewed for Five Star cab #303 and the insurance information requested has not been received. The recommendation is for revocation of your license until such time as the insurance information is received and license for cab #303 has been renewed. At this time you have three options on how to proceed: 1. If you do not dispute the above facts but wish to proceed with your license application, you may submit the necessary information to the Office of License, Inspections and Environmental Protection at 350 Saint Peter Street, Suite 300, Saint Paul, Minnesota, 55102 no later than Thursday, October 7, 2004.

If you do not dispute the above facts please send me a letter with a statement to that effect. The matter will then be scheduled for a hearing before the St. Paul City Council to determine what penalty, if any, to impose. You will have an opportunity to appeaz and speak on your own behalf, or to have someone appeaz there for you. The recommendation from the licensing office is for the immediate suspension of your license until a certificate of insurance has been submitted and approved by the licensing office. 3. On the other hand, if you wish to dispute the above facts, I will schedule an evidentiary hearing before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). If you wish to have such a hearing, please send me a letter stating that you are contesting the facts. You will then be sent a"Notice of Hearing," so you wiil know when and where to appeaz, and what the basis for the hearing will be. In either case, please let me know in writing no later than Thursday, October 7, 2004 how you would like to proceed. If I have not heard from you by that date, I will assume that you are not contesting the facts of the violation.
