SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED: Catholic Parents Club is applying for a premises permit to conduct pull tab sales from a staffed booth in the bar area of the Machine Shed Restaurant in Lake Elmo. Management of the Machine Shed has been seeking a partner to conduct pull tab sales, stating that they have experienced a significant loss of business because patrons leave when they realize there are no pull tabs at Machine Shed. In order for the application to be considered by the Gambling Control Board, the City must pass a Resolution approving the application. The Gambling Control Board will then review the application and supporting materials and approve or deny the application. The applicant will then be required, per City ordinance, to provide additional documentation to the City prior to beginning operations. City Council Meeting -- page 2 -- RECOMMENDATION: If removed from the Consent Agenda, staff recommends the following motion: “Motion to adopt Resolution 2016-26 Approving the Lawful Gambling Premises Permit for Catholic Parents Club to conduct lawful gambling at the Machine Shed Restaurant located at 8511 Hudson Road, Lake Elmo, Minnesota.”
