�� � REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Department Approval �� Date: Sept. 14, 2015 Item No.: 14.c City Manager Approval Item Description: Approve Presumptive Penalty for Wing Stop Alcohol Compliance Failure Background On or about March l lst, 2015, all businesses with a city liquor license were mailed a packet from the Roseville Police Department announcing two city wide alcohol compliance checks to be conducted before the end of the calendar year. On the front of the packet envelope stamped in 3/8" letters were the words "ALCOHOL COMPLIANCE!" The 3/8" stamped words were intentionally placed on the front of the envelope to ensure the mailing would be directed to the business owner/manager/alcohol compliance employee. The envelope packet included notice of �.� recent changes to Roseville City Ordinances regarding mandatory liquor licensee training �� r programs and penalties for noncompliance. Also in the letter was a complete copy of the City of 7 Roseville Manager and Server Training Program and the name and telephone number of a police i contact should a business have any questions/concerns relating to alcohol compliance. � Compliance Failure � On Wednesday, July 8, 2015, at 1:00 p.m., a plain clothes Roseville police officer, along with a �if� 17-year old underage buyer, entered the Wing Stop Restaurant located at 2100 Snelling Avenue 7� North, Roseville Minnesota, to conduct an alcohol compliance check. The underage alcohol 7; compliance checker approached the restaurant's sales counter and when asked, ordered a � Leinenkugels Summer Shandy beer. The store's cashier/on-duty manager asked the compliance 2 checker for his identification. The checker provided his Minnesota photo driver's license which z displays his date of birth of 04-30-1998. The cashier looked at it and then proceeded to ring up � the sale for the alcohol. The cashier completed the sale and returned proper change for the cash z: purchase. The plain clothing officer identified himself as a police officer to the cashier and � asked why she sold alcohol to an underage person? The cashier said she "got the dates wrong." z� The cashier was later administratively cited for the violation. On Thursday, July 23, 2015, Wing z�� Stop owner provided the police department with paper copies of their store employee 2 manager/server alcohol training records. Upon inspection of these pre-violation employee z� documents, I was able to determine all of the store's employees were current with their alcohol z� manager/server training documents.
