Snelling Ave. #64 <br />Roseville, MN 55113 <br /> <br />Michael Regnier, Regional Manager <br />Old Chicago <br />19270 English Avenue <br />Farmington, MN 55204 <br /> <br />Re: Liquor License <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Nelson and Mr . Regnier, <br /> <br />This is my response to your appeal from the Police Chiefs August 24th <br />notice informing you of your failure to pass an alcohol comI=1iance check. <br />My response is based upon the entire record in this case, including the <br />hearing on Tuesday, September 27th. Based on that record, I make the <br />following findings of facts. <br /> <br />On August 12, 2005, your em.ployee, Christina Perez, was cited by the <br />Roseville Police Department for serving alcohol to an under-aged <br />individual. Old Chicago does not contest the fact that this violation took <br />place. Your server did indeed provide alcohol to a minor. <br /> <br />Accordingly, the Police Chief sent you a notice fining you $500 and <br />suspending your liquor license for one-day. This is the penalty <br />prescribed under the Roseville City Code. (Your establishment did not <br />qualify for a lesser sanction under the City Code because you do not <br />participate in the City's Optional :rv1anager and Server Training Program. <br />Participants in that Program are subject to lesser sanctions for liquor <br />vio:lations j~JJ~:turn for lice~sees c~rryi:ng out a r<;>bust at.\~L~~ggressive <br />liquor training:program for each employee who serves alcohC)~.) <br /> <br />~ ; : <br /> <br />At the hearing you presented certain information in mitigation of the <br />violation. Specifically, you explain that you have an extensi'J'e server <br />education program, called Bar Code, and that Ms. Perez hac. been <br />through this liquor training program. You also explain that you were in <br />the process of inquiring about participation in the City's Optional <br />Manager and Server Training Program, but your paperwork was <br />misplaced in corporate offices due to the absence of an empJ.oyee on <br />maternity leave. Finally, you indicate that pursuant to company policy <br />the server who provided alcohol to an under-age individual has been <br />terminated and will not be rehired. <br /> <br />For the following reasons, I have decided to accept the mitigation <br />testimony: <br />
