BACKGROUND:
St. Joseph Church is hosting its annual August Festival on Saturday, August 11 and
Sunday, August 12, 2007. As part of the celebration, food and beverages including
beer will be served. The Lino Lakes City Code, Section 702.02, Subdivision 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. Bands will be playing live music in the
church parking lot on Saturday from 5:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. and Sunday from 11:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Non - profit organizations are allowed under State gambling laws 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, will submit a current certificate
of insurance and has paid the proper fees. The applications and the certificate of
insurance are filed in the office of the City Clerk.
The police department conducted a background investigation and found no reason to
deny approval.
