MAYOR <br />Bill Blesener <br />COUNCIL <br />Jim I aValle <br />Rick Montour <br />Barbara Allan <br />John Keis <br />515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117-J600 ADMINISTRATOR <br />(651) 766 -4029 / FAX: (651) 766 -4048 Joel R. Hanson <br />www.M.little-canacla.mn.us <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Blesener and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Kathy Glanzer, City Clerk <br />DATE: February 16, 2006 <br />RE: Amendment to Liquor Ordinance Relative to Number of Off -Sale <br />Liquor Licenses Allowed <br />Attached is a letter from Tom Vogt, owner of Gas -N -Go on Rice Street, requesting that <br />the City amend its Liquor Ordinance to allow for four (4) Off -Sale Liquor Licenses in <br />Little Canada. Mr. Vogt would like to include the sale of liquor as part of his gas <br />station /convenience store operation. <br />The State Statute allows Little Canada to set the number of Off -Sale Licenses as the City <br />feels appropriate (see Statute attached). Also attached is a copy of the City Code which <br />limits Off -Sale Licenses to three (3) until such time as the population rises to 20,000. <br />It is my understanding that the Gas -N -Go property is currently listed for sale. I discussed <br />this with Mr. Vogt, who indicated that he has had no interest from anyone to purchase the <br />property. It is his feeling that the addition of an Off -Sale License for his business will <br />help him to continue to operate a successful business. <br />Mr. Vogt will be present at Wednesday's meeting to discuss his request. <br />
