LicenseID #20070005009
Deaz Sir/Madam:
The Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI) will recommend adverse action against
the Restaurant (B) more than 12 seats license held by The Cat-Man-Do LLC, dJbJa Cat Man Do
for the premises located at 1659 Grand Avenue in Saint Paul. The basis for the recommendation
is as follows:
On June 12, 2008, the Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI) -
Environmental Health Division conducted an inspection of your establishment
and cited you for five (5) CRITICAL — Minor violations and one (1)
CRITICAL-Major violation: cold food not maintained at 41 degrees
Fahrenheit or less (batter at 45 degrees in lower partion ofprep cooler and sauee
for chicken 50 degrees in lower part of prep cooler and lamb curry at 45 degrees
in lower part of prep cooler).
On June 13, 2008, DSI sent you a Notice of New Critical Violafions nofing these
violations and stating they needed to be corrected by July 12, 2008. You were
then informed that a re-inspection would take place on or after July 12, 2008.
On July 15, 2008, the Environmental Health Division conducted a re-inspection
and cited you for the same CRITICAL —Major violation that had not been
corrected by July 12, 2008: cold food not maintained at 41 degrees Fahrenheit
of less (food items 50 degrees in lower part of prep coolers. Ambient air
temperature in both coolers was SO degrees).

states: "immediately, maintain all cold readily perishable food at 4l degrees

As pei Saint Paul I,egislative Code §310.05 (m) (8), the licensing office will recommend a matrix
penalty of $250.00 and suspension of your Restaurant (B) more than 12 seats license until the
vlolation has been conected.
At this time, you have three oprions on how to nroceed:
You will need to correct tlae violation and pay the recommended $250.00 matrix penalty.
If this is your choice, please send the payment to the Deparhnent of Safety and Inspections
(DSI) at 8 Fourth Street East, Suite 200, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101-1002 no later than

you are entitled.
You will also need to contact Kim Carlton Environmental Health Saecialist at

corrected. If the violation has not been corrected the matter will then be laced on

2. If you wish to admit the facts but contest the penalty, you may have a public hearing
befare the Saint Paul City Councll, you will need to send me a letter with a statement

for a public hearing to determine whether to impose the $250.00 matrix penalty and
license suspension. You will have an opportunity to appear before the Council and make a
statement on your own behalf.

RE: Cat Man Do
1659 Grand Ave
Inspection Number: 08 093647
Inspection Date: 07/15/08
REQUEST FOR LICENSE ADVERSE ACTION
The Environmental Health Division conducted a re-inspection of the facility at
1659 Grand Ave on 07/15/08 and is recommending license adverse action
(Section 331A.11 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code). The food code violations listed
below were noted as being uncorrected during the inspection. A copy of the full
inspection report is attached.
The following penalties are being recommended:
**** 8Nl08 CORRECTED
Violation 1 Severity: CRITICAL (Major) Comply By: 07/12/08 Notice # 2
RECOMMENDED PENALTY: $250
Cold foad not maintained at 41 degrees Fahrenheit or less.
FOOD ITEMS 50F IN LOWER PART OF PREP COOLERS. AMBIENT AIR
TEMPERATURE IN BOTH COOLERS WAS 50F.
Immediately, maintain al{ coid readily perishable food at 41 degrees Fahrenheit or less.
(MN 4626.0395)
The penalties listed above were based on the food code penalty guideline and the
followi�g mitigating or aggravating factors:
Potentiai for harm or imminent threat to pubfic health:
Inappropriate food temperatures are one of the leading causes of foodborne outbreaks. At
50 degrees, the cooler temperature is high enough that foodbone illness bacteria can begin
Page 1 of 2
DS -12-�5
to grow.
Extent of deviation from statutory or regulatory requirements:
The temperature of the cooler was 9 degrees higher than it should be. It is at the point that
the staff shoufd have noticed that the food did not feel as coid as it is supposed to be.
Degree of willfulness or negligence:
There doesn't seem to be any excuse for this one. They were told that their cooler was to
warm and yet they did nothing about it.
History of noncomptiance or compliance:
It appears from their inspectional history that the estabiishment really doesn't get it. They
have a history ofi a lot of poor practices.

Q) If the council imposes an adverse action as defined in section 310.01 above, a generic notice of such action shall be
prepared by the license inspector and posted by the licensee so as to be visible to the public during the effective period of
the adverse action. The licensee shall be responsible for taking reasonable steps to make sure the notice remains posted
on the front door of the licensed premises, and failure to take such reasonable precautions may be grounds for further
adverse action.
{k) Imposition of costs. The council may impose upon any licensee or license appficant some or afl of the costs of a
contested hearing before an independent hearing examiner. The costs of a contested hearing include, but are not limited
to, the cost of the administrative law judge or independent hearing examiner, stenographic and recording costs, copying
costs, city staff and attorney time for which adequate records have been kept, rental of rooms and equipment necessary
for the hearing, and the cost of expert witnesses. The council may impose all or part of such costs in any given case if (i)

for the purpose of delay or harassment; (ii) the nature of the violation was serious, or involved violence or the threat of
violence by the licensee or employees thereof, or involved the sale of drugs by the licensee or employees thereof, and/or
the circumstances under which the violation occurred were aggravated and serious; (iii) the violation created a serious
danger to the public health, safety or welfare; (iv) the violation involved unreasonable risk of harm to vulnerable persons,
or to persons for whose safety the licensee or applicant is or was responsible; (v) the applicant or licensee was su�ciently
in control of the situation and therefore could have reasonably avaded the violation, such as but not limited to, the
nonpayment of a required fee or the failure to renew required insurance policies; (vi) the violation is covered by the matrix
in section 40926 of the Legislative Code; or (vii) the violation invofved the sale of cigarettes to a minor.
(I) Imposition offi�es. The council may impose a fine upon any licensee or license applicant as a� adverse iicense action.
A fine may be in such amount as the council deems reasonable and appropriate, having in mind the reguiatory and
enforcement purposes embodied in the particular licensing ordinance. A fine may be in addition to or in lieu of other
adverse action in the sole discretion of the council. To the extent any other provision of the Legislative Code provides for
the imposition of a fine, both provisions shall be read together to the extent possible; provided, however, that in the case
of any conflict or inconsistency, the other provision shail be controlling.
(m) Presumptive penalties for certain violations, The purpose of this section is to establish a standard by which the city
council determines the amount of fines, the length of license suspensions and the propriety of revocations, and sha11 apply
to alf license types, except that in the case of a vioiation invoiving a liquor license § 409.26 shall apply where a specific
violation is listed. These penalties are presumed to be appropriate for every case; however the council may deviate
therefrom in an individual case where the council finds and determines that there exist substantial and compelling reasons
making it more appropriate to do so. When deviating from these standards, the council shall provide written reasons that
specify why the penalty selected was more appropriate.

A. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 310.05(c), a licensee who would be making a first or second appearance
before the councii may elect to pay the fine to the Department of Safety and Inspections without a council hearing, unless
the notice of violation has indicated that a hearing is required because of circumstances which may warrant deviation from
the presumptive fine amount. Payment of the recommended fine wili be considered to be a waiver of the hearing to which
the iicensee is entitled, and will be considered an "appearance" for the purpose of determining presumptive penalties for
subsequent violations.
B. For adverse action initiated under Chapter 331A of this Code, a f+ne may be paid without a hearing regardless of how
many prior appearances that licensee has made before the Council. The above council hearing requirement applies to
violations under Chapter 331A unless the fine recommended by the Department of Safety and Inspections is equai to or
fess than the fine amount out�ined in the above matrix. Payment of the recommended fine wili be considered to be a
waiver of the hearing to which the ficensee is entitled, and will be considered an "appearance" fior the purpose of
determining presumptive penalties for subsequent violations. A non-critical violation under chapter 331A shall not be
considered an "appearance" fior purposes of determining presumptive penalties for non-331A violations. A council hearing
is required if the Department of Safety and Inspections recommends a fine that is an upward departure for the amount
outlined above.
(ii) Multiple violations. At a licensee's first appearance before the city council, the council shall consider and act upon all
the violations that have 6ee� alleged andlor incorporated in the notices sent to the licensee under the administrative
procedures act up to and including the formal notice of hearing. The council in that case shall consider the presumptive
penalty for each such violation under the "1st Appearance" column in paragraph (b) above. The occurrence of muftiple
violations shall be grounds for departure from such penalties in the council's discretion.
(iii) Violations occurring after the date of the notice of hearing. volations occurring after the date of the notice of hearing
that are brought to the attention of the city attorney prior to the hearing date before an administrative law judge (or before
the councif in an uncontested facts hearing) may be added to the notice(s) by stipulation if the licensee admits to the facts,
and shall in that case be treated as though part of the "1st Appearance." In all other cases, violations occurring after the
date of the formal notice of hearing shail be the subject of a separate proceeding and dealt with as a"2nd Appearance"
before the council. The same procedures shall apply to a second, third or fourth appearance before the council.
(iv) Subsequent appearances. Upon a second, third or fourth appearance before the council by a particular licensee, the
council shal! impose the presumptive penalty for the vioVation or violations giving rise to the subsequent appearance
without regard to the particular violation or viofations that were the subject of the first or prior appearance. However, non-
critical violations of Chapter 331A shaff not be counted as an "appearance" before tfie Councii in relation to any violation
other than another violation of Chapter 331A.
(v) Computation of time. � � ��� /�-
.
(1) If a licensee appears before the council for any vioiation in paragraph (m) where that violafion has occurred within
tweive (12) calendar months after the first appearance of the same licensee for a violation listed in paragraph (m) above,
the current appearance shall be treated as a second appearance for the purpose of determining the presumptive penalty.
(2) If a(icensee has appeared before the council on two (2) previous occasions for violations listed in paragraph (m), and
if said licensee again appears before the counci4 for a violation iisted in paragraph {m), and if the curcenf violation occurs
within eighteen {18) calendar months of the violation that gave rise to the first appearance before the council, then the
current appearance shail be treated as a third appearance for the purpose of determining presumptive penalty.
(3) If a licensee has appeared before the council on three (3) previous occasions, each for violations listed in paragraph
(m), and if said licensee again appears before the councii for a violation contained in paragraph (m), and if the current
violation occurred within twenty-four (24) catendar months of the violation that gave rise to the first appearance, then the
current appearance shafl be treated as a fourth appearance for the purpose of determining the presumptive penalty.
(4) Any appearance not covered by subsections (1), (2) or (3) above shall be treated as a first appearance. In case of
multipie violations in any appearance, the date to be used to measure whether twelve (12), eighteen (18), or twenty-four
(24) months have elapsed shall be the date of ihe violation Iast in time at the first appearance, and the date of the
violation first in time at any subsequent appearance.
