An exempt permit may be issued to non - profit organizations conducting <br />lawful gambling activity on five or fewer days during a calendar year. St. Joseph <br />Catholic Church, 171 Elm Street, conducts fewer than five and is not required to secure a <br />gambling license. <br />Minnesota Statute, Chapter 349, Section 349.166, Subd. 2 does, however, require that the <br />non -profit organizations applying for the exemption permit notify the City that they are <br />applying for the exemption. A copy of the application for exempt permit is attached as <br />proof of notification. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Adopt a motion approving the application for exemption <br />2. Deny the application for exemption <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Option No. 1 <br />
