  Thank you all - I do have this information already. 
  The question is: what to do with it?  Write the guy a
  letter?  I've talked to him in person and he was
  rather surly... 


  Hi Connie:

  The link provided outlines the business licensing guidelines by which the 
Minneapolis Business Licensing division reviews a licensed property for license 
renewal (bottom of email).  

  When individuals are loitering, call the MPD and have calls documented.  If 
vehicles are loitering, get license plate numbers (make and color would help).  

  If you purchase food, get a receipt.  If it is bad, return it for a refund, 
even a candy bar.  In addition, state law requires that all groceries be 
inspected once per year.  Contact Minneapolis Environmental Health 
(612-673-2170) and report bad food, keep the food and receipt if returning it 
is unsuccessful, make sure to request that it be logged as a complaint.  
Provide the food to the environmental health specialist when they contact you 
about your complaint.  Request a copy of the history of inspections at the 
market, this is available for a few cents per copy (0.25 per page, I think) 
from the Environmental Health Division. 

  Contact the neighbors and local businesses about signing a petition and 
provide it to the Council Member and the owner of the business with the 
requests and consequences clearly stated.
