Mounds View City Council November 15, 1999 Regular Meeting Page 16 City Attorney Long stated there was discussion regarding whether or not there was some sense of urgency to resolving these issues, and this question is difficult to answer, in that as soon as you indicate there is not, the issues are likely to come forward. He indicated the problem from a legal standpoint is that if action is not taken, there is a question as to why, and this may present a problem. Council Member Marty moved to close off debate and call for the vote. Ayes—4 Nays— 1 (Stigney) Motion carried. Mayor Coughlin called for the vote on the motion.

Mayor Coughlin asked the Council if anyone would like to remove Items for discussion. Council Member Stigney requested Item C be removed from the Consent Agenda, for further discussion. City Administrator Whiting stated Bob Wharton from the Mounds View Lion's Club was present to address the Council on Item F, Charitable Gambling Permit Request, and had some information to provide regarding the Lion's Club's charitable donations within the past year. Bob Wharton, member of the Mounds View Lion's Club, and presently the Lions Club part- time Gambling Manager, provided the Council with a list of charitable donations made by this organization within the past year. He stated that every two years, the Lion's Club comes before the Council to request their premise permits be approved. He explained in addition to the State permits, the premise permits require the approval of the local Council, therefore, it behooves their organization to inform the Council how they spend the funds they raise from these projects.
