§ 4-99. Revocation

(a) Sanctions. On a finding that the licensee has done any the following, the council may revoke the license or permit, suspend the license or permit for up to 60 days, impose a civil penalty of up to $2,000.00 for each violation, or impose any combination of these sanctions:

(1) Sold alcoholic beverages to another retail licensee for the purpose of resale.

(2) Purchased alcoholic beverages from another retail licensee for the purpose of resale.

(3) Conducted or permitted the conduct of gambling on the licensed premises in violation of the law.

(4) Failed to remove or dispose of alcoholic beverages when ordered by the commissioner to do so under Minn. Stats. § 340A.508, subd. 3, or 5, failed to comply with an applicable statute, rule, or ordinance relating to alcoholic beverages.

No suspension or revocation takes effect until the license or permit holder has been given an opportunity for a hearing under Minn. Stats. §§ 14.57 through 14.69. This section does not require a political subdivision to conduct the hearing before an employee of the state office of administrative hearings.

(b) Imposition of penalty, suspension. Imposition of a penalty or suspension by either the issuing authority or the commissioner does not preclude imposition of an additional penalty or suspension by the other so long as the total penalty or suspension does not exceed the stated maximum.
