St. Joseph Catholic Church is hosting its annual August Festival on Saturday, August 13
and Sunday, August 14, 2005. As part of the celebration, food and beverages, including
beer, will be served. The Lino Lakes City Code, 702.02, Subd. 3, states "temporary on-
sale licenses shall be granted only to bona fide clubs and charitable, religious and non-
profit organizations for the sale of beer for consumption on the premises only ".
In addition, the parish has made application to acquire a cabaret license and approval for
an exemption for lawful gambling permit. A dance will be held Saturday, August 13,
from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and Sunday, August 14, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Non-
profit organizations are allowed, under State Gambling Statutes, to apply for an
exemption permit if they conduct fewer than five (5) gambling occasions per year. St.
Joseph Catholic Church conducts fewer than five.
St. Joseph's has completed the necessary applications, submitted a current certificate of
insurance and paid the proper fees. The applications and the certificate of insurance are
on file in the city clerk's office.
The police department is conducting a background investigation and approval is
contingent upon a finding of no information that would require a recommendation of
denial.
