Mounds View City Council July 12, 2010 Regular Meeting Page 3 • Mayor Flaherty was pleased that all issues were addressed by Robert's as the Council must look out for the safety and welfare of Robert's patrons. Kevin Halverson, owner of Robert's Sports Bar, explained the previous owner had the mail switched to his home address, which meant he did not receive any utility bills. Upon receiving the bills, he spoke with the City to arrange back payments. He indicated he would have attended last month's meeting but was told by City Staff that it was not necessary not necessary. Mr. Halverson further explained how other issues were resolved with Olsen Fire Inspection, the Fire Marshal, and the City. He expressed frustration with how the Council addressed the issues at Robert's and the lack of professionalism. Mr. Halverson did not want to have to be hostile when resolving issues with the City. Council Member Mueller stated she had a conversation with Mr. Halverson regarding a recent newspaper headline. She thanked the owners of Robert's for bringing their establishment into compliance. B. First Reading of Ordinance 846, an Ordinance Amending Section 512.08 of the City Code about the Suspension or Revocation of a Cigarette or Tobacco License. • Assistant City Administrator Crane stated the Ramsey County Tobacco Coalition reviewed The City Code pertaining to Suspension/Revocation of the Cigarette/Tobacco Business License. The Ramsey County Tobacco Coalition strongly recommends that the City use the word "consecutive" in their day's requirements for a suspension of the license. It eliminates confusion and clarifies what the state law and the City Code intends to do. Assistant Ciry Administrator Crane noted in Staff's professional opinion, the recommended language would clarify the suspension process, and would not change the intent. Staff recommends approval of the first reading and introduction of Ordinance 846. The Second Reading of this Ordinance is scheduled for the July 26, 2010, City Council Meeting.
