RE: Taaticab Driver (Provisional) license application submitted by Brian L. Dziubak
for the City of Saint Paul
License ID#: 20080003908
Dear Mr. Dziubak:
The Deparhnent of Safety and Inspections has recommended denial of the Taacicab Driver
(Provisional) license application submitted by Brian L. Dziubak for the City of Saint Paul. The
basis for the recommendation is as follows:
On May 11, 1999 you were convicted of Felony l Degree Sale of
Methamphetamine (Minn. Stat. §152.021.13) in Ramsey County.
You were released from prison on July 31, 2008 and are currently
under supervised probation until your custody expires on January
27, 2009.
This is a violation of Saint Paul Legislative Code §376.16 (e) (4)
which states: "Eligibility to be licensed to operate a taxicab shall be as
follows: Shall not be under sentence or have been discharged from
sentence for a felony conviction within the ten (10) years immediately
preceding application of a license for the following offenses:.......or
any violation of the controlled substance law (§I52 el al) which is
punishable by a maximum sentience offifteen (IS) years or more; as
allowed underMinn. Stat �364.09."

At this time you have three options on how to proceed:
1. You may withdraw your license applicarion. Send a written statement to that effect to the
Deparhnent of Safety and Inspections, 375 Jackson Street, Ste 220, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101-
1806 no later than Thursday, November 13, 2008. Information should be directed to the
attention of Christine Rozek. Any request for a refund of the license application fee must also be
made in writing to DSI.
2. If you wish admit the facts but contest the denial, you may have a public hearing before
the Saint Paul City Council, you will need to send me a letter with a statement admitting
the facts and requesting a public heazing. We will need to receive your letter by
Thursday, November 13, 2008. The matter will then be scheduled before the City
Council for a public hearing to determine whether to deny your license. You will have an
opportunity to appeaz before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf.
If you dispute the above facts, you can request a heazing before an Administrative Law
Judge. At that hearing both you and the City will be able to appeaz and present witnesses,
evidence and cross-examine the other's wiMesses. The St. Paul City Council will
ultimately decide the case. If this is your choice, please let me know by Thursday,
November 13, 2008, and I will take the necessary steps to schedule the administrative
hearing.
If you have not contacted me by that date, I wilt assume that you do not contest the
denial of your license. In that case, the matter will be placed on the Council's Consent
Agenda for approval of the recommended penalty.

I would like to request a public hearing in front of the Saint Paul City Council to
appeal my denial for a Tasi Cab license. I do have a job lined up through Diamond Cab
Company once I get my license approved.
My criminal record incident was ten years ago. I need to work in order to be in
accordance with my parole obligations and to be a productive member of the community.
Sincerely,
_ °'i�.�,
