Approve Penalty for Michelangelo's Restaurant
802 Mainstreet '
ProDosed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a civil fine of
$500.00 and a 4-dav suspension of the Iiauor license for Michelanaelo's Restaurant.
Overview
On March 7, 2005 an 18-year -old male and female were allowed to purchase alcohol at
Michelangelo's Restaurant. The waitress served alcohol without asking either party their
age or checking for identification. An administrative hearing was held at the Hopkins
Polic~ Department on April 18, 2005. The license holder was present and did not
dispute the facts of the incident. No other violations have been noted at this
establishment. Chapter XII subsection 54 of the City of Hopkins Code calls for
presumptive civil penalties for a first offense of a civil penalty of $500.00 and license
suspension for 4 days. No substantial reasons to deviate from the presumptive civil
penalties were noted by staff.
Primarv Issues to Consider
· Is the civil penalty recommended in keeping with the established penalty
grid?
· Suspension would follow Council action and would start on the same
weekday as the violation was noted. Suspension dates would run from
May 9lh through May 12lh of 2005.

o
we were checking all of the on sale sites within the city of Hopkins. Crime Prevention Specialist Katherine Magdal 0

MN picture DL as
Crime Prevention Specialist Magdal and I again briefed both on this detail. We directed
them to enter the specified business where we dropped them off and attempt to purchase an alcoholic beverage.
They were to try to purchase the alcoholic beverage without showing identification, We explained to them that if
they were asked for identification they were to say they did not have it with them. If the employee of the business
still refused to sell, they were directed to immediately leave the business.
Detective Brent Johnson also assisted with this detail and wired up with a live "body bug."
Detective Johnson and I were using an unmarked vehicle and were able to monitor all the conversations that
ad with the employees at the on sale alcohol establishments. As we completed the
enter into Michelangelo's Restaurant at 802
MAINSTREEr~ at down and we watched as a female waitress approached them at which
,
time sked for two glasses of red wine, The female did not ask either
_for identification and shortly thereafter placed two glasses ofred wine onto the table,
Detective Johnson and I entered the restaurant and I saw
itting at a table. In front of each
of them was a glass of what appeared to be red wine:'The waitress that had served
and I explained to her that this had been an alcohol compliance check and that they did not ask
_ for identification. Also at that time, we were approached by the owner of the business who had
acknowledged that they had just received a letter and he had shown it to Bello three days prior, advising her that this
check was going to happen_

~male waitress identified herself with a MN picture ID as ROCIO MATIAS BELLO (DOB 1972-10-07). I
asked Bello if she knew it was illegal to sell to a person under the age of 21 and she did not give me an answer. I
also asked her if she thought that ooked above the age of 21 and again she did not answer.
The owner of the restaurant appeared to be quite angry at Bello for selling the alcoholic beverages to
8
_ 1 without asking for identification. I explained to the owner of the restaurant, along with Bello, that I would
be completing a report of this incident and forwarding it on for possible charges.
