MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />MAY 12, 1993 <br />Short also reported that in most cases rent for the <br />organizations at the bingo hall has come down, and the <br />Little Canada Bingo Hall is still getting more people <br />through the door than any other bingo hall. <br />Scalze felt it was tough to do business at the <br />approximately $360 per session rent being charged at <br />Little Canada Bingo Hall. <br />Short suggested that the Council tell him what a proper <br />rent would be and suggested that he would be glad to <br />adjust the rent. <br />Matson stated that he would like to see the rent at the <br />bingo hall remain all inclusive. Matson reported that <br />the $200 at the Knights of Columbus Hall is all <br />inclusive. <br />Boss reported that negotiations with TCF were left with <br />a rent approximately $200 to $225 per session, in <br />addition to the organizations being able to sublease <br />the concession area and gain some revenue from that. <br />This brought the rent down to approximately $180 per <br />session. <br />Short stated that he could not agree with those <br />figures, but then asked the Council what he should be <br />charging for rent. <br />Scalze stated that she did not want to micro-manage Mr. <br />Short's business, but wanted to issue a bingo hall <br />license and make it work. <br />Short suggested that in looking at rent level <br />information, the Council be sure it is comparing apples <br />to apples. <br />Matson pointed out that the rent levels discussed with <br />TCF would be an apples to apples comparison, and <br />suggested that the Council needs to review this <br />information. <br />Scalze suggested that the Council needed to see a <br />rental package from both the Little Canada Bingo Hall <br />owners and TCF. <br />Boss reported that in negotiating the rental agreement <br />with TCF, the rental rate arrived at is an apples to <br />apples comparison with the rate being charged at the <br />Little Canada Bingo Hall. <br />Matson stated that he would like to compare the TCF <br />rental agreement with that at Little Canada Bingo Hall. <br />Page 6 <br />
