CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
A13D RECOMMENDATIOI3
The above-entitled matter came on for hearing before
Administrative Law Judge Rita A. Mc�onnell on June 19, 1995
at 9:30 a.m., in Room 41, Saint Paul City Hall and Ramsey
County Courthouse, 15 West Rellogg, Saint Paul, Minnesota,
55102. The record closed on June 19 at the close of the
hearing.
Philip B. Byrne of the Office of the City Attorney
appeared on behalf of the City of Saint Paul, Office of
License, Inspection and Environmental Protection.
George H. L'Heuzeux appeared pro se and on behalf of
Licensee.
Notice is hereby given that this Report is a
recommendation only and not a final decision. The Saint
Paul City Council will make the final decision. After a
revieva of the record, it may adopt, reject, or modify the
Findings of Fact and Recommendations contained herein.
After receipt of this Report, the council shall provide the
licensee an opportunity to present oral or written arguments
alleging error on the part of the administrative law judge
in the application of the law or interpretation of the facts
and to present argument related to the recommended adverse
action. Parties should contact the City Clerk, St. Paul
City Council, 386 City Hall, St. Paul, Minnesota 55102, to
qs -lo�l
ascertain the procedure for filing exceptions or presenting
argument.
STATEMENT OF ISSUES
1) Were the restrictions placed on the license held by
George L'Heureux reasonable under Section 310.06(c) of the
Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
2) Do George L'Heureux's admitted violations of the
license restrictions justify revocation of the license
pursuant to Sections 310.06 (b)(5) and (8) of the Saint Paul
Legislative Code.
Based upon all the files, records and proceedings
herein, the Administrative Law Judge makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. George H. L'Heureux (hereafter "L'Heureux")
operates an auto repair business known as George's Selby
Auto Repair at 880 Selby Avenue in Saint Paul. L'Heureux
began the process of applying for a General Auto Repair
license in August of 1994. City's Exhibit #5. L'Heureux
opened and operated the business while the application
process was being completed.
2. While L'Heureux's application was pending, the
Office of License, Inspection and Environmental Piotection
(LIEP) received complaints about the repair shop from
neighbors and the Saint Paul Police. The neighborhood
complaints were two-fold: £irst, the business brought
increased congestion in and around the business premises and
second, the business was providing a safe haven for so-
called "street characters" who found the shop's business
traffic and telephones to be convenient for making drug and
other illegal transactions without the risk of detection.
qs- la��
4. Upon receiving these complaints, Rristina
Schweinler, Senior License Inpector with LIEP, worked with
the neighbors, the District Council, the police and
L'Heureux to fashion an agreement that would permit
L'Heureux to operate his business while addressing the
neighborhood concerns. As a result o£ the discussions with
the parties, LIEP agreed to recommend approval of
L'Heureux's license application subject to certain
conditions. Those conditions included restrictions on the
number of vehicles parked on the premises and on the hours
of operation of his business -- 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Monday throuqh Friday and from 11:�� a.m. to 3:0� p.m, on
Saturdays.
5. On April 28, 1995, Schweinler brought an agreement
to L'Heureux detailing the restrictions to be placed on his
license. Schweinler reviewed the restrictions with
L'Heureux and explained how they varied from an earlier set
of conditions agreed upon by L'Heureux in the early spring.
L'Heureux expressed some dissatisfaction with the
conditions, but signed the aqreement in Ms. Schweinler's
presence on that date. City's Exhibits 6A and 6B
6. A resolution approving the license with the
restrictions was scheduled to come before the Saint Paul
City Council on May 3, 1995. On May 2, Robert Kessler,
Director of LIEP, met with L'Heureux at LIEP to review the
restrictions on the shop's hours of operations. Kessler
requested the meeting because L'Heureux had not operated
within the agreed-upon hours after signing the agreement
four days earlier. During their meeting, Kessler explained
to L'Heureux the importance of the conditions and LIEP's
intention to enforce them strictly. L'Heureux told Ressler
he understood the conditions and would comply with them, but
that it would be difficult to do so when customers arrived
at the shop late in the day. Ressler explained that the
operation of L'Heuzeux's business later in the evening
facilitated illegal activities in the area, giving the
qs_�ool
"street characters" a place to hide, phones to use, and
legitimate business traffic to mask their activities. If
L'Heureux's business were closed, the pattern of
objectionable activities in that area would be easier to
break. Ressler also explained that once the pattern was
broken, LIEP would consider easing some of the restrictions.
7. The City Council reviewed L'Heuruex's license
application at its May 3 meeting and voted to approve the
application with the agreed-upon conditions. After the
vote, L'Heureux and a colleague came forward and told the
Council they were reluctant to follow the conditions. At
the direction of the Council, Kessl.er and L'Heureux
discussed the latter's reservations in the hall. Kessler
reiterated for L'Heureux the need for the conditions. The
Council's approval of the license with conditions was left
undisturbed. City's Exhibit #5. L'Heureux received a copy
of the license in the mail after May 3 that included only a
partial list of the restrictions. The restricted hours of
operation were not included on that list. Licensee Exhibit
A.
8. After May 3, L'Heureux was routinely open for
business until much later than the required closing time.
As a result, LIEP began began an adverse action aqainst the
license. See, City's Exhibit #8. Notice of the hearing on
the adverse action was served on L'Heureux by mail on June
1, 1995. City's Exhibit #1. L'Heureux continued to operate
his business we11 past the 6:00 p.m. closing time even after
he was notified of the proposed adverse action.
Based upon the foregoing, the Administrative Law Judge
makes the following:
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
1. The Administrative Law Judge and the St. Paul City
Council have jurisdiction in this matter pursuant to St.
Paul Legislative Code Sections 310.05 and 310.06.
�S-1�°�
2. L'Heureux received timely and proper notice of the
hearing of this matter pursuant to Saint Paul Legislative
Code Section 310.05(b).
3. The conditions placed on L'Heureux's license
were reasonable conditions imposed "for the purpose of
promoting public health, safety and wel£are, of advancing
the public peace and the elimination of conditions or
actions that constitute a nuisance or a detriment to the
peaceful enjoyment of urban life, or promoting security and
sa£ety in nearby neighborhoods." Saint Paul Legislative
Code Sec. 310.06(c). The limitation on the hours of
operation, as well as the other conditions limiting the
operation were reasonable "...to prevent the development or
continuation of a nuisance." Saint Paul Legislative Code
Sec. 310.06(c)(1) and (6).
4. Adverse action against L'Heureux's license is
justified under the following subsections of Sec. 310.06:
(5) The licensee or applicant has failed to
comply with any condition set forth in the
license, or set forth in the resolution granting
or renewing the license.
* * � * *
(8) The licensed business, or the way in which
such business is operated, maintains or permits
conditions that unreasonably annoy, injure or
endanger the safety, health morals, comfort or
repose of any considerable number of inembers of
the public.
"Adverse action" includes the revocation or su5pension
of a license. Section 310.01
5. These Conclusions are made for the reasons set
out in the Memorandum which follows and which is hereby
incorporated into these Conclusions by reference.
Based upon the foregoing Conclusions, the
Administrative Law Judge makes the following:
°�S -!a°�
RECOPIMENDATION
IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that the St. Paul City Council
revoke the license issued to George H. L'Heureux.
Dated this 19th day of July, 1995.
` ��"� �
ita� A. McCon 1
inistrative Law Judge
Reported: Taped (not transcribed; tape number 22,769)
The license holder in this case does not deny he
violated the conditions placed on his license. Rather, Mr.
L'Heureux claims that the conditions imposed on his license
are inherently un£air and that he was forced into the
agreement without a full understanding of its import.
Despite Mr. L'Heureux's protestations, LIEP made every
effort to work with Mr. L'Heureux to advise him of of the
problems posed by his business and to reach a suitable
agreement to accomodate his concerns and those of the
neighbors. When a compromise was reached, Ms. Schweinler
hand-carried an agreement outlining the restrictions to Mr.
L'Heureux. The Director of LIEP met with Mr. L'Heureux
personally on the day before the City Council approved the
restricted license to reiterate its requirements and the
LIEP's expectation that Mr. L'Heureux would comply with
qs-t��
those terms. Mr. Ressler met with Mr. L'Heureux again
immediately after the City Council's approval of the license
to explain for a third time the restrictions and their
importance.
In spite of this significant advance notice and
warning, Mr. L'xeureux has consistently demonstrated either
an unwillingness or inability to comply with conditions the
city has deemed necessary for the successful and peaceful
operation of Mr. L'Heureux's business in that neighborhood.
Mr. L'Heureux insists he does not intend to be defiant, but
that he simply needs longer working hours. He has never
proposed alternative hours of operation, however. Instead,
Mr. L'Heureux simply ignored the conditions and was open
until long past 6:00 p.m. -- well beyond any short grace
period that might necessary to address last minute problems
or to perform cleaning and maintenance on the shop.
Mr. L'Heuruex's interests must be balanced against
those of the surrounding community and the severity of the
problems it is attempting to address. His adherence to the
limitations on his shop's hours of operation would permit
the neighborhood to thwart illegal and dangerous activities
around his business premises. In the long run, if these
efforts were successful, they would benefit everyone,
including Mr. L'Heureux. Because Mr. L'Heureux has shown
himself unwilling to be a partner with the community in
these important efforts, he should forfeit his right to
operate in that location.

FOR THE COiINCIL OF TFIE
CITY OF SAINT PAUL
In re the License of
George L'AeureLix dba
George's Selby Auto Repair
June 19, 1995
1. Burden of Proof.
(a) Preoonderance of the Evidence.
Memorandum on Burden
of Proof and Evidence
In a civil hearing concerning adverse action on municipal
licenses, the City as the licensing authority must prove its case
by a preoonderance of the evidence. Minn. R. 1400.7300, subp. 5.
The City's evidence must lead the trier of fact to believe that it
is more likely that its case is true than not true. See Civil Jury
Instruction Guides, JIG II 70 G. If there is the slightest tipping
of the scales in the direction of the City by credible evidence,
then it has proved its case.
It is not necessary in a civil case, as this is, to prove the
case beyond a reasonable doubt. The criminal standard is not
applicable here. The Minnesota Court of Appeals, in In re Kaldahl,
418 N.W.2d 532, 535 (Minn. App. 1988), said the following:
"The burden of proof in Kaldahl's criminal misdemeanor
trial was different from the burden of proof
in the administrative proceeding which resulted in the
(administrative) order. ... Unless otherwise Arovided bv
prepondeYance of the evidence." See Minn.R. 1400.7300,
subp. 5(1985); In re Schultz, 375 N.W.2d 509, 514 (Minn.
App. 1985)." (Emphasis added.j
qs—��s
Also see In re Wana, 441 N.W.2d 488, 492 (Minn.
reaffirmed the preponderance
disciplinary hearings.
(b) Substantial Evidence.
standard Por
1989), which
administrative
In re Wana, 441 N.W.2d 488, 492 (Minn. 1989), also makes clear
that the decisions of the administrative agency must be supported
by "substantial evidence on the record as a whole." The findings of
the AL7 in this case, and later those of the City Council, as in
other license proceedings, must be supported by "evidence that a
reasonable mind miaht accept as adequate," in the context of the
entire record. 441 N.W.2d at 492.
2. Hearsav Bvidence.
(a) Police Reports.
Police reports which recite the personal observation and
experiences of the police officers who wrote them are admissible in
administrative hearings, and may support findings made by the
administrative or quasi-judicial body which is holding the hearing.
Sabes v. City of Minneavolis, 265 Minn. 166, 120 N.W.2d 871, 877-78
(Minn. 1963). This is an exception to the hearsay rule, based on
the admissibility of the official reaords and reports of public
officials. Thus the report of Officers Winsor and Johnson, Eshibit
11, is admissible in this hearing in that it contains the personal
observations and experiences of the officers in question.
(b) Generallv.
In Hagen v. State Civil Service Board, 282 Minn. 296, 164
2
qs— ca� �
N.W.2d 629, 632 (1969), the Minnesota Supreme Court stated in a
case dealing with a challenge to evidence that a civil service
board had admitted:
�'It is true that an administrative body acting quasi-
judicially is not bound by strict procedural rules which
circumscribe the action of a court, and that incompetent
evidence is not fatal to its determination."
The Minnesota Supreme Court, while recognizing that hearsay
evidence is admissible in administrative disciplinary hearings and
that hearsay evidence alone miaht be sufficient to sustain a
decision, holds that in most cases hearsay evidence alone will not
be enough. In re Wana, 441 N.W.2d at 495.
Minn. Stat. sec. 14.60, in providing for the evidence that may
be received and heard by administrative agencies subject to the
state APA, states in part:
"In contested cases agencies may admit and give probative
efPect to evidence which possesses probative value
commonly accepted by reasonable prudent persons in the
conduct of their affairs." Sec. 14.60, subd. 1.
3. Resnonsibilitv for Employees� Actions.
Section 310.17 of the Legislative Code provides in pertinent
part that "(a)ny act or conduct by any ... employee ... of a
licensee, ... which act or conduct takes place on the licensed
premises ... (and which act violates federal, state or local law)
..., shall be considered to be and treated as the act or conduct of
the licensee for the purpose of adverse action against all or any
of the licenses held by such licensee. ..." The licensee thus is
liable for the acts of his employees in taking part in the

violations of the license conditions by working or allowing work

also conveyed by Minnesota Statutes section 340A.415. Adverse
action may include revocation, suspension, fines and other
penalties or conditions.
Evidence will be presented to the judge which may lead to adverse
action against all the licenses you hold at the above premises as
follows:
"The basis for adverse action is that you have violated
the conditions that were placed on your repair garage
license. This license was approved by the City council on
May 3, 1995, and the license incorporated the conditions
which you approved and consented to on April 28, 1995.
These violations include:
You have operated the business outside the hours
permitted by your special condition use permit and by the
license conditions on the following dates:
On Tuesday night, May 9, 1995, the business
was open and operating at l0:lo p.m.
On Wednesday night, May lo, 1995, the bnsiness
was open and operating at 7:45 p.m.
On Thursday night, May 11, 1995, the business
was open and operating at approximately 7:20
p.m.
On Monday night, May 15, 1995, the lights were
on and the side door was open, and there was
at least one person in the premises at 9:00
p.m.
On Thursday night, May 18, 1995, the business
was open and operating at 7:45 p.m.
The city license office may present, either
through its staff or private individuals,
testimony as to operations on other occasions
between May 18, 1995 and the date of the
hearing.
You have permitted more than 6 cars on the lot on every
date from April 28, 1995 (with the exception of Sunday,
May 14, 1995) to May 19, 1995. Testimony may be presented
of other violations from and after May 19, 1995, and up

� , qS� ����
You have the right to be represented by an attorney before and
during the hearing or you can represent yourself. You may also
have a person of your choice represent you, to the extent not
prohibited as unauthorized practice o£ law.
The hearing will be conducted in accordance with the requirements
of Minnesota Statutes sections 14.57 to 14.62 and such parts of the
procedures under section 310.05 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code
as may be applicable.
At the hearing, the Administrative Law Judge will have all parties
identify themselves for the record. The City will then present its
witnesses and evidence, each of whom the licensee or attorney may
cross-examine. The licensee may then offer in rebuttal any
witnesses or evidence it may wish to present, each of whom the
City's attorney may cross-examine. The Administrative Law Judge
may in addition hear relevant and material testimony from persons
not presented as witnesses by either party who have a substantial
interest in the outcome of the proceeding; for example, the owners
or occupants of property located in close proximity to the licensed
premises may have substantial interest in the outcome of the
proceeding. Concluding arguments may be made by the parties.
Following the hearing, the Judge will prepare Findings of Fact,
Conclusions of Law, and a specific recommendation for action to be
taken by the City Council.
You should bring to the hearing all documents, records and
witnesses you will or may need to support your position. Subpoenas
may be available to compel the attendance of witnesses or the
production of documents in conformity with Minnesota Rules, part
1400.7000.
If you think that this matter can be resolved or settled without a
formal hearing, please contact or have your attorney contact the
undersigned. If a stipulation or agreement can be reached as to
the facts, that stipulation will be presented to the Administrative
Law Judge for incorporation into his or her recommendation for
Council action.
If you fail to appear at the hearing, the allegations against you
which have been stated earlier in this notice may be taken as true
and your ability to challenge them forfeited. If non-public data
is received into evidence at the hearing, it may become public
unless objection is made and relief requested under Minnesota
Statutes, Section 14.60, subdivision 2.
Very truly yours,

C.F. No. 94•898, § 1, 7-13-94)
Sec. 310.02. Application.
(a) Form. All applicants for licenses or permits
issued pursuant to these chapters shall make both
original and renewal applications to the inspector
on such forms as aze provided by the division.
Such applications shall not be received by the in-
spector until completely filled out, accompanied
by all fees, insurance policies, bonds, deposits,
sureties, and indemnifications or certificates re-
quired by these chapters, together with the certi-
fication required in pazagraph (b) below.
(b) Taxes. No person shall be granted a license,
a renewal of a license or transfer of a license re-
quired by the Saint Paul Legislative Code unless,
prior to and in addition to any other require-
ments, rules or ordinances heretofore or hereafter
required, the Ramsey County Department of Prop-
erty Taxation certifies that said applicant has paid
any and all ta�ces, real or personal, before said
tases become delinquent, on any property, real or
Supp. No. 26
personal, situated within the City of Saint Paul
and used in connection with the business oper-
ated under said license.
I�TOtwithstanding the previous paragraph, the
council, the director or the inspector may issue,
renew or transfer a license if it is found that:
(1) The applicant has made an agreement sat-
isfactory to the Ramsey County attorney to
pay delinquent tases in periodic install-
ments;
(2) The applicant has properly commenced a
proceeding to contest the amount of tax due
or the valuation of his property, and has
made all partial payments required by law
in connection with such proceeding; or
(3) The business property with respect to which
taxes aze delinquent is not owned by the
applicant, but by a lessor, and it would be
inequitable to require the lessee to pay such
tases.
If a license is issued, renewed or transferred be-
cause of the existence of an agreement as de-
scribed in subsection (1) above, the license may be
revoked if the licensee defaults upon such agree-
ment.
(c) Addition¢l information. The inspector shali
prescribe the information required to be submitted
by each applicant in his application, in addition to
that required by specific sections in these chap-
ters, as may be necessary to carry out and enforce
any provision hereunder. He shall require in every
case the applican� to submit his name; business or
corporate name; names of partners, officers, direc-
tors, shareholders or trustees involved in the busi-
ness; age; address; description or blueprint of the
premises, if any, and the owner thereof, and loca-
tions and addresses of other business locations in
Minnesota.
(d) No re¢pplication within one (1) year after de-
ni¢l or revoc¢tion. No person may apply for any
license within one (1) year of the denial or revo-
cation of the same or similaz license by the city
council, if such denial or revocation was based
solely or partially upon misconduct or unfitness of
the appiicant, evidence of violations of law in-
volving licensed premises, evidence that the ap-
� 1 •�

•
§ 310.02
LEGISLATIVE CODE
plicant had been involved in the operation of a
nuisance, or fraud or deception in the license ap-
plication. Denial of a license, as used in this paza-
graph, shall include a refusal of permiesion to
transfer a license to the applicant. A license is
"similaz," within the meaning of this pazagraph,
i£ the hasis upon which the revocation or denial of
the original license was made would have been a
relevant basis on which to deny or revoke a li-
cense of the type subsequently applied for.
(e) Re¢pplication ¢fter denial; "interest" of ap-
plic¢nt in reuoked license. An applieation by a
person having an interest in, or whose shaze-
holders or o�cers have an interest in, any prem-
ises or enterprise whose license has been revoked
or to which a license has been denied shall be
treated as an application by the person whose li-
cense was denied or revoked. The term "interest,"
as used in this paragraph, includes any pecuniary
interest in the ownership, operation, management
or profits of an establishment, but does not in-
clude: bona fide loans; bona fide rental agree-
� ments; bona fide open accounts or other obliga-
tions held with or without security arising out of
the ordinary and regulaz course of business of
selling or leasing merchandise, fietures or sup-
plies to such establishment; an interest in a cor-
poration owning or operating a hotel but having
at least one hundred fifty (150) or more rental
units holding a license in conjunction therewith;
or ten (10J percent or less interest in any other
corporation hoiding a license.
(fl Prohibition on re¢pplic¢ttion; exception. The
prohibition on reapplication herein provided shall
not apply in cases where it is otherwise er.pressly
provided by statute or ordinance.
(g) Waiting period ¢fter filing of petition. Any
petition required to be filed with the application
for any license shall not be considered as officially
fiiled and irrevocable until seven (7) worlring days
after a petition is received in the inspector's of-
fice. During the seven-day waiting period, any sig-
nator of any peiition may withdraw his name
therefrom by written request, and such request
shall be appended to the subject petition and made
a part thereo£ After the seven-day waiting pe-
• riod, signatures may not be withdrawn unless it
is shown they were obtained by fraud or duress.
Signatures withdrawn or obtained by fraud or du-
ress shall not be counted in determining the suf-
ficiency of the petition. This subdivision sha11
apply in any case where the applicant for a li-
cense or license transfer must present a state-
ment in writing signed by a specified number or
percentage of persons that they have given their
consent to the grant of the license or license
transfer.
(Code 1956, § 510.02)
Sec. 310.03. Investigation and review of new
applications, etc.
The inspector shall determine the suFficiency
and accuracy oF each new application and obtain
such criminal history information as may be used
under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 364, and is
otherwise available by law. The inspector shall
make reasonable and appropriate investigation of
the premises or personal property, vehicles or fa-
cilities, as may be involved in or related to the
licensed activity, and shall request, where appro-
priate, the assistance of other city divisions or
departments in making additional investigations
for the purpose of determining whether the appli-
cant is or wili be in compliance with all applicable
ordinances and statutes. The approval of such
other divisions or departments is not required for
issuance of a license unless otherwise required by
spec�c sections in these chapters. All new appli-
cations shall be reviewed by the zoning adminis-
trator or his designee for compliance with all re-
quirements of the Saint Paul Zoning Code, and no
new license shall be granted without full compli•
ance with said requirements. All new applica-
tions involving a premises, location, building or
structure shall be referred to the director of the
department of fire and safety services and to the
building of�cial for investigation and recommen-
dation.

al of any such license shall not be held eg-
cept on the request of a councilmember,
which request shall be incorporated in the
form of a council resolution. Upon the pas-
sage of such resolution, the director shall
give written notice of such hearing to the
affected neighhorhood organizations. Such
public hearing does not replace or amend
any of the procedures set forth in section

peal to the city council may be taken by any per-
son aggrieved by the grant, issuance, renewal or
transfer of a Class I or Class II license; provided,
however, that the appeal shall have been filed with
the city clerk within thirty (30) days aftzr the
action by the director. The only grounds for ap-
peal shall be that there has been an error of law in
the grant, issuance, renewal or transfer of the li-
cense. The appeal shall be in writing and shall set
forth in particulaz the alleged errors of law. The
council shall conduct a hearing on the agpeal with-
in thirty (30) days of the date of filing and shall
notify the licensee and the appellant at least ten
(10) days prior to the hearing date. The proce-
dures set forth in section 310.05, insofar as is prac-
ticable, shall apply to this hearing. Following the
hearing, the council may affirm or remand the
matter to the inspector or director, or may reverse
or place conditions upon the license based on the
council's determination that the decision was
based on an error of law. The filing of an appeal
shall not stay the issuance of the license.
(fl No waiaer by renewal. The renewal of any
license, whether Class I, II or III, shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any past violations or of
any grounds for imposition of adverse action
against such license.

es; the inspector has the same power with respect
to Class II licenses. The crouncil may impose such
conditions on Class III licenses with the consent
of the license holder, or upon any class of license
as an adverse action against the license or licens-

particular licenses involved, either as em-
bodied in the Legislative Code or as found
and determined by the council;
(3) The intenelatianship of the licenses and
• their relative unportance to the overall busi-
ness enterprise of the licensee or applicant;
(5) The estentto which adverse action against
less than all of the licenses or applications
would result in difficulty in enforcing and
monitoring the adverse action taken;
(6) T`he hazdship to the licensee or applicant
that would be caused by applying adverse
action to all licenses or applications; and
(7) The hardship and/or danger to the public,
or to the public health and welfare, that

istration incurred in connection with each such
application, license or permit. Costs of adminis-
tration shall mean and include, but without lim-

sede inconsistent fee provisions in these chapters
or in other ordinances or laws.
(c) Fee for one year,• may be prorated. Unless
otherwise specifically pmvided, the license fee stat-
ed is for a period of one (1) yeaz. Such fee may be
� pmrated where a license is issued for a period of
less than a year.

vided by the particular licensing provisions in-
volved, an applieant for the renewal of a license

£ee for such license for each thirty=day period or
portion thereof which has elapsed after the espi-
ration datz of such licenae. The late fee shall not

tion.

RobertKessler (ItESSLER)
ATTORNEY:BYRNE,
Tuesday, May 16, 1995 12:31 pm
880 Selby Report
Police Report, C.N. 95-062-310, that verifies that the
was open at 10:10 p.m. on Tuesday, May 9th. The report
an admission £rom the owner that they were open and
working on cars.
On Wednesday night May lOth, I personally observed the business
open at 7:45 p.m. Both large garage doors were open and I could
see several people inside looking at a car parked half inside the
western door. There was also another man's legs sticking out from
one side of the car. He appeared to be working on or looking at
the underside of the vehicle. I returned at 9:30 p.m. and the
doors were closed, there were 7 cars parked in the driveway/lot
area in front of the business, and the lights inside were out.
In general,based on this report, and the in£ormation from Gerry
McInerney, it is obvious that the owner has no intention of
following the restrictions approved by the City Council on May 3,
1995. I would like to start an adverse action with the intent o£
hitting him with a substantial suspension (10 to 15 days) to get
his attention that this is a serious situation.
Let me know if you have questions.
