Smith: Second. Ms. Giffin moved that the Licensee in Case No. 2017-015, be assessed a penalty in the amount of $2,000 with $1,000 suspended for one year from the date of service of the Decision and Order on the condition that there are no similar violations to Rule 3-8-D, and that $1,000 is to be paid within 30 days upon receipt of the Decision and Order; seconded by Mr. Smith. Fuke: Any discussion? Smith: Brandon, the Licensee was issued the license in 2014? That's when the store opened, right? Gonzalez: Yes. Smith: The Wikiwiki Mart is the one that has the fuel pumps in front of it and is on the north side of the Kona International Market Place? Gonzalez: That is correct. Smith: So it wasn't like someone else was operating this business before them, they got their license when they opened? Gonzalez: Yes. The issuance for that store is 2014. Smith: I don't think they existed. They added the fuel pumps and the small store there. Gonzalez: Yes. Smith: Thank you. Fuke: We already moved and seconded. All those in favor of the recommended penalty of $2,000 with $1,000 suspended please say, "Aye." The Board Members voted "Aye." Fuke: Opposed, "Nay." There was no opposition by the Board Members. Fuke: Unanimously carried. The motion was unanimously carried. Fuke: A written Decision and Order will be sent to the Licensee, not to you directly. We thank you very much for being here. We're sorry you had to go through this, but we hope that moving forward you can understand our role and your role as well, in the community. DECEMBER 7, 2017 - LIQUOR ADJUDICATION BOARD MINUTES 15
