Smith: Prior to assessing a penalty, we're in the penalty phase now, you may proceed with <br />your presentation of the circumstances surrounding the violation. <br />Palomo: At the end of September last year, my partner decided to sell back to the original <br />owner, Ophelia (Shively). That made me decide to also stay out of the business. There was <br />a transition period and I was the only one who was in a capacity to provide financial records, <br />all the records they wanted. I was the only one doing it, as well as bartending and cooking. <br />I did everything as we were shorthanded. They started cleaning my office and they told me <br />they were going to put everything in the files. In that process, I neglected going over the files. <br />I usually (have them) on my desk, so it was my oversight to go over those files again because <br />they keep coming on my desk. I just didn't have the time until one of your inspectors came <br />and said that we are in violation. That's when I remembered that, and we paid it right away. <br />But, we are in violation, we agree on that. I'm really sorry. I meant no disrespect or to <br />disregard the law or rules. I'm sorry. <br />Smith: Okay, thank you very much. Do the Board Members have any questions of the <br />Licensee? Dwayne, go ahead. <br />Mukai: Has the email address changed? I see that there were three emails sent out to remind <br />the business of the deadline, but there was no response. <br />Palomo: One is waikoloarestobar(o)-yahoo.com, and my personal email is <br />wilsonpalomo(d_)yahoo.com. <br />Mukai: Of the three emails that were sent on October 2nd, November 7th, and November 15tH <br />who reads them? <br />Palomo: The new owner, Ophelia Shively. I have access to that also. <br />Mukai: No one read the emails that were sent prior? The three emails? <br />Palomo: I don't know the third one. <br />Mukai: According to our report, email notification was sent on October 2nd , November 7th, and <br />amount due on November 15th. Then the Department actually called and left a message on <br />your phone. <br />Palomo: I'm not aware of a call. <br />Mukai: Okay, thank you. <br />Smith: Any other questions? <br />There were no other questions from the Board Members. <br />Smith: Hearing none, Mr. Gonzalez? <br />FEBRUARY 20, 2020 -LIQUOR ADJUDICATION BOARD MINUTES 11 <br />
