• <br />• <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: <br />MEETING DATE: <br />TOPIC: <br />VOTE REQUIRED: <br />BACKGROUND: <br />AGENDA ITEM 1H <br />Julie Bartell, City Clerk <br />September 11, 2006 <br />Consider Adoption of Resolution No. 06 -150, <br />Approving an application for Exempt Permit <br />For raffle benefiting Cystic Fibrosis Foundation <br />Simple Majority (3/5 Vote Required) <br />The City has been informed that the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is planning their <br />1st Annual Raffle Rally Ride on September 30, 2006. The schedule of events for <br />the day includes a raffle drawing at the Circle Lex VFW at 7868 Lake Drive, for <br />which local representatives of the organization have applied for an Exempt <br />Permit for Lawful Gambling. <br />All lawful gambling conducted in Minnesota requires authorization from the <br />Minnesota Gambling Control Board in the form of a license, exempt permit or <br />excluded authorization. An exempt permit may be issued to non - profit <br />organizations conducting lawful gambling activity on five or fewer days during a <br />calendar year. <br />Minnesota Statutes, Section 349.166, Subdivision 2, does require non - profit <br />applicants to notify the city and obtain local approval, with or without a 30 day <br />waiting period. Because this request will be considered by the council only 19 <br />days before the event, staff would recommend approval be granted with no <br />waiting period. <br />The application and other required information is on file in the city clerk's office. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Approve Resolution No. 06 -150 approving an exempt permit to allow <br />the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation to conduct a raffle on September 30, 2006; <br />2. Deny Resolution No. 06 -150 <br />
