MINUTES <br />City Council <br />Flpril 8, 1987 <br />Bingo Latz replied that there has not been an advertising campaign as yet, <br />(Cont.) but noted that a newsletter is sent to members and public service <br />agencies. A brochure has been available since about 1978. <br />Scalze asked how long Mr. Amaro has been a member of MRID. <br />Latz replied since 1983 when he conducted some fund-raising <br />events. <br />Lora Amaro of MRID reported that she has been a member for the past <br />10 years and active in fund-raising events for MRID for the past 5 <br />years. Flmaro reported that MRID was licensed by the City of St. <br />Paul for the fund-raising events that were held and that she was <br />listed as gambling manager on the license. The events were put on <br />with the assistance of Ed Amaro. <br />Latz also reported that it was his responsibility to submit the <br />990 forms the City required, which he did not do. <br />LaValle noted that on the application form it notes that the rental <br />fee for the hall is $440 per night. <br />Mr. Amaro replied that this was correct, and noted that the annual <br />rent for the building is $137,000. <br />Fahey asked if the City had supena-powers should it decide to hold <br />a hearing as requested by Mr. Grey. <br />The City Attorney replied that the City did not have these powers. <br />Mr. Blesener asked Mr. Tom Short, owner of the building LCCB operates <br />in, if there was a valid lease held by LCCB. <br />Mr. Short replied that Movers Warehouse entered into a lease agreement <br />with LCCB on September 16, 1986. However, that lease is currently <br />in the courts. <br />Mr. Tom Pew, attorney for Mr. Short, reported that he appeared in <br />court on an unlawful detainer that Movers Warehouse filed against <br />LCCB. However, the judge determined that the second lease would <br />not be submitted into evidence and dismissed the unlawful detainer <br />action. Therefore, the original lease is in effect. <br />Mr. Pew reported that Movers Warehouse now has the option to <br />request that the findings be amended, or file an appeal. This <br />decision has not been made. <br />Pew reported that the lease in effect is a three-year lease which <br />runs from July 1, 1986 to June 30, 1989. <br />Blesener asked if there were any conditions in the lease agreement <br />regarding the renewal of licenses for the charities. <br />Page -19- <br />
