Each application is required to be considered separately. The <br />request before you is for a one -day bingo activity to be conducted on March 24, 2002. <br />Approval at this time will allow the church the additional time needed to submit the <br />necessary paperwork to the State Gambling Control Board. <br />Approval of this item is recommended, contingent upon completion of the background <br />investigation. <br />Options <br />1. Motion to Approve <br />2. Motion to Deny <br />Recommendation <br />Option 1 <br />
