Consider Adoption of Resolution No. 08 -64,
Approving renewal of a Premises Permit for
the Lino Lake Lions to conduct charitable
gambling at American Legion Post #566
Simple Majority (3/5 Vote Required)
An application for renewal of a lawful gambling Premises Permit has been
submitted by Richard Schumacher of the Lino Lake Lions. The application
requests that the Lino Lake Lions organization be permitted to continue to
conduct charitable gambling at American Legion Post #566 located at 7731 Lake
Drive. The renewal period for a Premises Permit is two years, per state
guidelines.
The city has conducted a background investigation relative to this application and
found no information on the principal applicants that would give reason to deny
the application.
Minnesota Lawful Gambling law requires that the local unit of government
approve applications for premises permit before they are submitted to the
Gambling Control Board for final consideration. Therefore, the City Council is
being asked to consider approval of a resolution approving the application
submitted by the Lions.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve Resolution No. 08 -64 approving renewal of a premises permit for
Lino Lake Lions to conduct charitable gambling at American Legion
Post #566
2. Deny Resolution No. 08 -64
