A licensed organization, under the State Gambling Statutes, may conduct lawful gambling on
premises other than the organization's permitted premises for one day per calendar year or within
a 12- consecutive -day period in a calendar year in connection with a county fair, church festival or
a civic celebration. With the permission of the church, the Circle -Lex Lions Club has made
application to conduct a fund - raising dinner and raffle on April 5, 2003 at St. Joseph Catholic
Church, 171 Elm Street.
The Circle -Lex Lions Club has also requested a 1 -day temporary set -up license and a temporary
3.2 beer license. The City may not issue more than ten (10) temporary 1 -day consumption &
display permits in one year. This is the City's first.
City policy requires a background investigation every time a permit or license application is
received. The Lino Lakes Police Department conducted the investigation and found no reason to
deny the application.
Attached are the completed applications and the resolutions approving the requests. The
temporary set -up license must be forwarded, by the organization, to the Alcohol & Gambling
Enforcement Division along with the resolution approving the application and the off -site
gambling permit must be forwarded, by the organization, to the State Gambling Control Board,
along with the resolution approving the application.

temporary 3.2 beer on -sale license.
