EXHIBIT A
CORCORAN LIQUOR VIOLATION POLICY
Minnesota Statute §340.415 authorized the City of Corcoran to impose a penalty of a fine
(up to $2,000) and to suspend or revoke a liquor license upon a finding that a license holder has
violated the terms of the liquor statute.
In cases where such a violation is alleged, the City Council has determined to conduct a
hearing in compliance with the Administrative Procedures Act as a regular City Council meeting
to receive information in support of the allegations and to give the license holder an opportunity
to be heard.
Upon a find that a license holder or a representative of the license holder, has committed
a violation of the liquor statute, the City Council has determined to impose a penalty as follows:
First Offense $300 fine
Second Offense $500 fine plus 2 day suspension
Third Offense $900 fine plus 18 day suspension
Fourth Offense $ 1000 fine plus license revocation if within 48 months of a
First Offense.
If any two violations occur within a twelve month period, the Council may impose a $1,000.00
fine and license revocation.
The City Council may amend this policy from time to time by resolution.
Adopted this 22 day of February, 2001.
