Item No: 11B3 <br />Meeting Date: April 26, 2010 <br />Type of Business: Reports of Staff <br />Administrator Review: ____ <br /> <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Clerk-Administrator <br /> <br />Item Title/Subject: Totino’s Italian Kitchen – Voluntary Surrender of Liquor <br />License <br /> <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />According to the Minnesota Department of Revenue Liquor Sales Tax Delinquency list, <br />Totino’s Italian Kitchen has been delinquent in payment of their liquor sales taxes since <br />September 2009. Non-payment of liquor taxes prevents active liquor establishments <br />from purchasing liquor, beer or wine to resell. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />Totino’s Italian Kitchen requested a payment plan from the Minnesota Department of <br />Revenue for their delinquent liquor sales taxes. In order for the Minnesota Department <br />of Revenue to consider such a payment plan, they requested that the owner of Totino’s <br />Italian Kitchen Corporation to immediately surrender their On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor <br />License to the City and to the Department of Public Safety (Alcohol and Gambling <br />Division). This occurred on April 21st. The Minnesota Department of Public Safety <br />has canceled their liquor license, effective April 21st. <br /> <br />As soon as Totino’s becomes current on their liquor sales taxes, then Totino’s will be <br />authorized to re-apply for their liquor license. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />No City Council action is required for a voluntary surrender of a liquor license. As a <br />matter of record, Staff would like to inform the City Council of this surrender and have it <br />reflected in the Minutes. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Desaree Crane <br />Assistant City Clerk-Administrator <br />
