In re the Licenses of
Campus Sports Grill & Nightclub, Inc. FINDINGS OF FACT.
d/b/a Campus Sports Grill CONCLUSIONS AND
2554 Como Avenue RECOMMENDATION
The above-entitled matter came on for hearing before John W. Harrigan,
Administrative Law Judge, on August 14, 1995, at 9:30 A.M., at Room 41, St.
Paul City Hall, 15 W. Kellogg Boulevard, St. Paul, Minnesota 55102. The hearing
concluded on August 14, 1995.
Gail L. Langfield, Assistant City Attorney, 400 City Hall, 15 W. Kellogg
Boulevard, St. Paul, Minnesota 55102, appeared on behalf of the City of Saint
Paul. Martin R. Bertzyk, one of the licensees, appeared on his own behalf.
This Report is submitted to the Saint Paul City Council, pursuant to Section
310.05 (c-1) of the Saint Paul Legislative Code.
This report is a recommendation, not a final decision. The Saint Paul City
Council will make the final decision after a review of this record. The Council may
accept, reject or modify the Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Recommendation
cantained herein. Pursuant to Section 310.05�c-1) of the Saint Paul Legislative
Code, the Council shall provide the licensee an opportunity to present oral or
written argument alleging error in this report, and to present argument relating to
any action recommended in this report. The licensee should contact Gail L.
Langfield, Assistant City Attorney to ascertain the procedure for presenting
argument.
STATEMENT OF ISSUES
1. The issue to be determined in this proceeding is whether adverse
action may be taken against all licenses held by Campus Sports Grill and Nightclub,
, qs-����
Inc. d/b/a Campus Sports Grill on the grounds that:
On two occasions, June 8 and 9, 1995, Campus Sports Grill sold and served
intoxicating liquor in areas outside the building structure, both:
(a) without the consent of the Council by resolution under Section
409.06(e) of the Saint Paul Legislative Code, and
(b) without the consent of the license inspector under Section 409.1 1 of
the Saint Paul Legislative Code. In so doing, other provisions of the
Code were necessarily violated. This provides the basis for adverse
action under Sections 310.05 and 310.06 of the Code.
This is in violation of Section 409.06 and 409.1 1 of the Saint Paul Legislative
Code.
The Administrative Law Judge makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. Martin Bertzyk and Frank Gruler own and operate the establishment
known as Campus Sports Grill and Nightclub d/b/a Campus Sports Grill. The City
of Saint Paul has issued a Sunday On Sale Liquor license to the Campus Sports
Grill, operating at 2554 Como Avenue, in St. Paul, Minnesota.
2. The Office of Licenses, Inspections and Environmental Protection
(LIEP) is responsible for enforcing licensees' compliance with State statutes and
City ordinances. Saint Paul Legislative Code provision 409.06(e) prohibits the sale
or service of liquor outside the compact and contiguous space (building) named in
the license. Saint Paul Legislative Code provision 409.08(15) requires the licensee
to have the responsibility of taking reasonable and adequate steps to prevent
persons from leaving the licensed premises with a bottle, can or glass containing
any alcoholic beverage.
3. Prior to May 12, 1995, Mr. Bertzyk and Mr. Gruler applied for a
temporary license for the extension of the liquor service area. The license
(#13102) was issued to allow liquor service in the parking lot adjacent to the
building on 5/13/95, 6/3/95 or 6/10/95, 7/15/95, 8/12/95, 9/9/95 or 9/16/95,
between the hours of 5:00 p.m. and 9:30 p.m., or if on Sunday, between the hours
of 1:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m.
2
�s-��� �
4. Prior to the issuance of the temporary license, Mr. Bertzyk and/or Mr.
Gruler attended a meeting at the Saint Anthony Park Community Council where the
plans were presented regarding the extension of the liquor service area. The dates
presented at the Saint Anthony Park Community Council meeting were represented
by Mr. Gruler or Mr. Bertzyk as tentative, pending the availability of entertainment.
The Saint Anthony Park Community Council recommended approval of the
temporary extension of the liquor service area.
5. The Saint Anthony Park Community Council is a citizen's district
council and is not a licensing authority for the City of Saint Paul. Pursuant to Saint
Paul Legislative Code Section 409.1 1(a�(6), the licensee was required to present
the application for the temporary extension with either:
(a) the written consent or nonobjection of the citizen's district council, or
(b) petition with signatures of 60% or more of the owners of private
residences, dwellings or apartment houses located within 200 fee of
the premises, stating they have no objection to the granting of a
temporary extension of the service area.
6. On June 8, 1995, Saint Paul Police Officers Mantiers and Harper
entered the Campus Sports Grill at 2554 Como Avenue and observed the sale and
consumption of liquor outside of the building. On this date, Campus Sports Grill did
not have a license for the extension of the liquor service area.
7. On June 9, 1995, Saint Paul Police Officers Mantier, Lutchen and
Learmont and Sgt. Cavanaugh entered the Campus Sports Grill and observed the
consumption of liquor outside of the building. Kristina Van Horne, License
Inspector from the City of Saint Paul was also present and observed liquor
consumption outside of the building. On this date, Campus Sports Grill did not
have a license for the extension of the liquor service area.
8. On June 9, 1995, Mr. Gruler was notified of the violation and agreed
to move everyone inside and discontinue liquor sales outside of the building.
9. On June 23, 1995, the City Attorney's Office sent to Mr. Gruler and
Mr. Bertzyk a notice of violation based upon the June 8 and 9 sale and service of
liquor outside of the building.
10. On July 28, 1995, a Notice of Hearing was sent to Mr. Gruler and Mr.
Bertzyk setting the matter on for hearing on August 14, 1995.
1 1. The City License Inspection Office recommends a one day suspension
3
�' >>� �
of license. This recommendation is taken from Section 409.26, St. Paul Legislative
Code which establishes a standard by which the City Council determines the length
of license inspections.
12. The licensee and his employee, Mr. Qualle, stated emphatically at the
hearing that they believed that they had followed all procedures necessary to get
twelve "open-ended" dates for outside operation by going to the License
Department and �ollowing through with the Saint Anthony Park Community
Council. The licensee states that his dates are extremely hard to predict far in
advance because of booking difficulties with entertainers. The licensee stated that
he thought he only applied for "tentative dates".
13. Kris Schweinler, Senior License Inspector for the City of St. Paul,
stated that she did not agree with the licensee, and she found it hard to believe
that the licensee got the impression that he had a permit for "tentative" or "open-
ended" dates. She further stated that all requests for temporary extension of the
liquor service area must be in writing and must supply the specific dates. No open-
ended or alternative dates are given. The licensee may obtain 12 dates, no more,
in an annual period. Each date must be approved in advance by the Licensing
Authority under the provisions of Section 409.07.1 of the Code
Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact, the Administrative Law Judge
makes the following:
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
1. The Administrative Law Judge and the Saint Paul City Council have
jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to Minn. Stat. 340A.503, Subd. 2, and Saint
Paul Legislative Code 310.05(c-1►.
2. The notice of hearing was proper in this matter and all procedural
requirements of law or rule have been fulfilled by the City of Saint Paul.
3. Saint Paul Legislative Code Section 409, governs the action of liquor
licensees in the City of Saint Paul.
4. On June 8 and June 9, 1995, the Campus Sports Grill permitted the
sale and consumption of liquor in an extended service area. The licensee did not
have a permit to allow service in an extended area on those dates.
5. On June 8 and June 9, 1995, the Licensee appeared to be in
4
qs-���$
compliance with directives of Section 409.1 1 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code in
that the temporary area was immediately adjacent to the licensed premises, all
operations appeared to be in compliance with the requirements of the law, and the
area was enclosed to control access to and from the liquor service and
consumption area.
RECOMMENDATION
IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED: That the City Council find that the Licensee
was in violation of the provisions of Section 409.1 1 and 409.061e) of the Saint
Paul Legislative Code on June 8 and June 9, 1995, by operation of an extended
service area without the proper permits. The Council may impose penalties under
the provisions of Section 409.26. Taking all of the facts of this case into
consideration, the Administrative Law Judge recommends that the Council follow
the recommendation of the Licensing Authority, but suspend the penalty for 18
months on the condition that there be no further violations of this provision.

MEMORANDUM
The basis for this Complaint by the City is that the licensee applied for and
obtained permits but conducted the permitted activities on different dates, and
therefore the activities were prohibited under the Code. The licensee freely admits
the violations. Mr. Bertzyk and Mr. Qualle, however, positively assert that they
believed that they had satisfied all of the requirements of the law and obtained
permits to do what they did. They state that they believe that they did what they
were told they had to do by the licensing authorities and that what they did was
right.
For those reasons, they believe that the recommended penalty, a one-day
suspension of license, is too severe. They further state that having gone through
this process, it is extremely unlikely that they will make a similar mistake in the
future.
Section 409.26 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code recommends penalties for
license violations and presumes the penalties, "...to be a�propriate for every case;
however the council may deviate from in an individual case where the council finds
and determines that there exist substantial and compelling reasons making it more
apqropriate to do so." When deviating from these standards, the Council shall
provide written reasons that specify why the penalty selected was more
appropriate.
In this case, the licensee went to the licensing authorities and applied for
extended service permits, then to the Saint Anthony Park Community Council to
comply with Section 409.1 1(a)(61, and states that he came away from those
meetings under the impression that the "tentative" or "open-ended" dates were
approved. Indeed, the original application, dated April 8, 1995, states, "dates are
tentative pending band availability" (see Exhibit 8►. The licensee seems to have
taken all of the steps required by the Code to control access to the area and
provide the necessary parking, cleanup, etc.
For the foregoing reasons, it seems reasonable to delay the imposition of the
penalty set forth in Section 409.26 based on the future conduct of the licensee. It
does not seem that the licensee intended to violate the Code. It also does not
seem likely that the licensee will commit a similar violation.

Re: All Licenses of Campus Sports Grill
Our File Number: G95-0268
Dear Mr. Gruler and Mr. Bertzyk:
I am in receipt of information that could lead to adverse action
against all your licenses. The basis for adverse action is that:
On two occasions, June 8 and 9, 1995, you sold and served
intoxicatinq liquor in areas outside the buildinq
structure, both (a) without the consent of the Council by
resolution under Section 409.06(e) of the Saint Paul
Leqislative Code, and (b) without the consent of the
license inspector under Section 409.11 of the saint Paul
- Leqislative Code. In so doinq, other provisions of the
Code were necessarily violated. This provides the basis
for a8verse action under Sections 310.05-.06 of the Code.
If you do not dispute the above facts, and wish to have the matter
go directly to the City Council for its determination based on the
above facts and facts contained in the files and reports of the
License, Inspections & Environmental Protection office regarding
these matters, call me at 266-8728 to work out the procedures for
that.
If you dispute the facts as I stated them above, or have additional
facts that you wish to introduce in a hearing, I will take the
necessary steps to schedule a hearing before an independent hearing
examiner. You will receive a formal Notice indicating when and
where to appear, the basis for the hearing, and other procedural
n e e icenses o ampus por s ri

and/or contest the facts.

RE: All licenses held by Campus Sports Grill & Niqhtclub, Inc.,
dba Campus Sports Grill for premises located at 2554 Como
Avenue, St. Paul
Our File Number: G95-0268
Dear Mr. Gruler and Mr. Bertzyk:
Please take notice that a hearing will be held at the following
time, date and place concerning all licenses for the premises
stated above:
Date: Monday Auqust 14, 1995
Time: 9:30 a.m.
P1aCe: Room 41
3t. Paul City Hall
15 W. Relloqq Blvd.
Saint Paul, MN. 55102
The hearing will be presided over by an Administrative Law Judge
from the State of Minnesota Office of Administrative Hearings:
Name: John Harriqan
Office of Administrative Hearinqs
100 Washinqton Square, Suite 1700
Minneapolis, 1�IId. 55401
Telephone: 872-0222
The Council of the City of Saint Paul has the authority to provide
for hearings concerning licensed premises and for adverse action
against,such licenses, under Chapter 310, including sections 310.05
and 310.06, of the Saint Paul Legislative Code. In the case of
� �
_ Nightclub d/b/a Campus Sports Grill _
City's E�ch. No. 9
. _ �I,�-�>>�
licenses for intoxicating and non-intoxicating liquor, authority is
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 judqe which may lead to adverse
action against all the licenses you hold at the above premises as
follows:
On two occasions, June 8 and 9, 1995, you sold and served
intoxicatinq liquor in areas outside the buildinq
structure, both (a) without the consent of the Council by
resolution under Section 409.06(e) of the Saint Paul
Leqislative Code, and (b) without the consent of the
license inspector under section 409.11 of the Saint Paul
Leqislative Code. In so doinq, other provisions of the
Code were necessarily violated. This provides the basis
for adverse action under Sections 310.05-.06 of the Code.
Additionally, on June 23, 1995, members of your staff
ejected a patron with unnecessary force. This conduct
violates Section 409.08 (5) of the St. Paul Leqislative
Code which provides: ��Every licensee is hereby required
to maintain order and sobriety in such place of
business.�� and Section 409.14 (a) which provides that:
��Any act by any clerk, barkeeper, aqent, servant or
employee of any licensee hereunder, in violation of this
chapter, shall be deemed the act of the employer and
licensee of such place ... and every such employer and
licensee shall be liable to all the penalties provided
for the violation ...�� These acts provide a basis for
additional adverse action under Sections 310.05 and .06
of the Code. ��
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 of 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

Mr. Frank R. Gruler and
Mr. Martin R. Bertzyk
Campus Sports Grill
2554 Coxia Avenue
Saint Paul, Minnesota 55104
RE: All licenses held by Campus Sports Grill & Nightclub, Inc.,
dba Campus Sports Grill for premises located at 2554 Como
Avenue, St. Paul
Our File Number: G95-0268
Dear Mr. Gruler and Mr. Bertzyk:
Please take notice that a hearing will be held at the following
time, date and place concerning all licenses for the premises
stated above:
Date: Monday Auqust 14, 1995
Time: 9:30 a.m.
Place: Room 41
St. Paul City Hall
15 W. Relloqq Blvd.
Saint Paul, MN. 55102
The hearing will be presided over by an Administrative Law Judge
from the State of Minnesota Office of Administrative Hearings:
Name: John Harriqan
Office of Adiuinistrative Hearings
100 Washinqton Square, Suite 1700
Minneapolis, MN. 55401
Telephone: 872-0222
The Council of the City of Saint Paul has the authority to provide
for hearings concerning licensed premises and for adverse action
against,such licenses, under Chapter 310, including sections 310.05
and 31U.06, of the Saint Paul Legislative Code. In the case of
i �
. °i5'-1���
licenses for intoxicating and non-intoxicating liquor, authority is
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:
On two occasions, June 8 and 9, 1995, you sold and served
intoxicatinq liquor in areas outside the buildinq
structure, both (a) without the consent of the Council by
resolution under Section 409.06(e) of the Saint Paul
Leqislative Code, and (b) without the consent of the
license inspector under Section 409.11 of the Saint Paul
Leqislative Code. In so doinq, other provisions of the
Code were necessarily violated. This provides the basis
for adverse action under Sections 310.05-.06 of the Code.
Additionally, on June 23, 1995, members of your staff
ejected a patron with unnecessary force. This conduct
violates Section 409.08 (5) of the St. Paul Leqislative
Code which provides: ��Every licensee is hereby required
to maintain order and sobriety in such place of
business.�� and Section 409.14 (a) which provides that:
��Any act by� any clerk, barkeeper, aqent, servant or
employee of any licensee hereunder, in violation of this
chapter, shall be deemed the act of the employer and
licensee of such place ... and every such employer and
licensee shall be liable to all the penalties provided
for the violation ...�� These acts provide a basis for
additional adverse action under Sections 310.05 and .06
of the Code. ��
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 of law.
The hearing will be conducted in accordance with the reguirements
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
Notice of Hearing - Page 2

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, your ability to challenge the
allegations will be forfeited and the allegations against you which
have been stated earlier in this notice may be taken as true. 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.
