<br /> <br /> <br />The Roseville Police Department has worked with City alcoholic beverage licensees to promote <br />training for both servers and managers to prevent sales of alcohol to underage persons, and to <br />prevent other violations of the Liquor Control Ordinance. All licensees and their managers, and <br />all employees or agents employed by the licensee that sell or serve alcohol, must complete a city <br />approved or city provided liquor licensee training program. Free training packets are available <br />from the City. Contact Kelly Roberto of the Roseville Police Department at <br />kelly.roberto@ci.roseville.mn.us to receive a packet or the names of approved trainers. <br /> <br />Both the City’s approval and the required training shall be completed: <br /> <br />1. Prior to licensure or renewal for licensees and managers, or <br />2. Prior to serving or selling for any employee or agent, and <br />3. Every year thereafter. <br /> <br />Your business must maintain documentation that you have properly trained every employee that <br />sells or serves alcohol, and produce such documentation upon reasonable request made by a <br />peace officer, health officer or properly designated officer or employee of the city. The City will <br />not maintain these records for you. Additional penalties may be assessed if you are unable to <br />provide documentation or it is determined the employee did not under-go the required training. <br /> <br />The mandatory minimum penalty for the sale of alcoholic beverages to underage <br />individuals is a $1,000 fine and a one day suspension. <br /> <br />These penalties are civil in nature. Please be aware criminal penalties may also be imposed for <br />violations of the Liquor Control Ordinance. <br />The Roseville Police Department will conduct two compliance checks in 2012 beginning this <br />spring. Please remind your employees of their legal and moral responsibility not to sell or serve <br />alcoholic beverages to anyone under the age of 21. <br />Once again, we encourage you to review Roseville City Code, Chapter 302, to insure that you <br />have familiarized yourself with the local regulations applicable to your establishment. If you <br />have any questions, please contact Lt. Lorne Rosand at 651-792-7211. <br />Sincerely, <br />Rick Mathwig <br />Chief of Police <br /> <br />
