The basis for the recommendation is as follows: On June 11, 2003 a tobacco compliance check was performed on the premises of the Como Raymond Amoco, located at 2102 Como Avenue in Saint Paut. A sixteen-year oid male entered the store and was able to purchase a package of Marlboro Lite cigarettes even though he showed identification which correctly stated his date of birth and showed him to be underage. Sale of tobacco to an underage person is a violation of Minn. 5tat. §609.685 and Saint Paul Legislative Code §324.07. Since this is a first violation, the licensing office wiil recommend a�2Q0.00 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 �vill need to pay the recommended fine for this violation. If this is your choice, 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 aze entitled. A self- addressed envelope is enclosed if this is your choice. AA-ADA-EEO Employer 03--,�a Page 2 Como Raymond Amoco June 24, 2003 2. Alternatively, 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 Monday, 7uly 7, 2003. The matter wi11 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 appeaz before the Council and make a statement on your own behalf. If you do dispute the above facts, a hearing will be scheduled before an Administrative Law Judge. At that hearing 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 Council will ultimately decide the case. If this is your choice, please advise my le�al 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 Monday, July 7, 2003, we wili 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 will 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. Sincerely, �/�� .-�-� Virginia D.
