• <br />• <br />• <br />AGENDA ITEM 1B <br />STAFF ORIGNINATOR: Jean Viger, Deputy Clerk <br />MEETING DATE: October 8, 2001 <br />TOPIC: Consider Request from St. Joseph Catholic <br />Church for an Exemption from Lawful <br />Gambling License <br />VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority (3/5 Vote) <br />BACKGROUND: <br />Non - profit organizations are allowed, under the State Gambling Statutes, to apply for an <br />exemption from lawful gambling license if they conduct fewer than five (5) gambling <br />occasions per year. Currently St. Joseph Catholic Church conducts four (4) gambling <br />occasions each year. The annual Sunday Turkey Bingo is their third request and the <br />annual Venison Feed is their fourth request for an exemption from lawful gambling <br />license for the year 2001. <br />Since these events are approximately a week apart and the city received both applications <br />on the same day, I am requesting that the City Council consider both applications at one <br />time. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. This item is under the Consent Agenda. If the Council feels that this request is <br />acceptable, the item would be part of the motion to approve the Consent Agenda. <br />2. If council feels this request needs further information, the item should be taken off <br />the Consent Agenda and placed under "New Business ". <br />3. Deny the Request <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Option No. 1 <br />
