Mounds View City Council January 28, 2002 <br />Regular Meeting Page 17 <br /> <br />Council Member Marty indicated that public works had brought up the water supply issue and a <br />problem with the water at the school recently. <br /> <br />Mr. Lee indicated the school only has one gate valve to the south of its service access and, by <br />adding one to the north, it would be possible to isolate the service and make it more reliable in <br />case of a water main break. He then indicated there is also the possibility of looping the system <br />which is more costly. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty noted the looping report seemed to be the best alternative but is more <br />costly. He then asked if Mr. Lee felt that having another gate valve added would suffice at this <br />time. <br /> <br />Mr. Lee agreed that it would be more cost advantageous to the school district to add a gate valve <br />rather than adding water mains to the site. <br /> <br />Mayor Sonterre closed the public hearing at 9:18 p.m. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Thomas/Marty. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 5688, a <br />Resolution Approving the Conditional Use Permit and Development Review for the Edgewood <br />Middle School Facility Expansion. <br /> <br />Ayes – 4 Nays – 0 Motion carried. <br /> <br />B. Second Reading and Adoption of Ordinance 691, Amending Chapter 502 <br />(Intoxicating Liquor) and Chapter 503 (3.2 Percent Beer) of the Mounds <br />View Municipal Code as They Relate to Charitable Gambling. <br /> <br />Assistant City Administrator Reed explained this item was before Council at the December 3, <br />2001 work session and Staff was asked to amend the Ordinance to allow other Mounds View <br />Organizations to conduct charitable gambling in the City and create a 10% fund. She then <br />explained that several issues had been raised by the Lions and she had attempted to answer those <br />questions. <br /> <br />Assistant City Administrator Reed explained that the organizations are required to fill out a form <br />to send to the state listing profits from each site. She then explained that the City is not able to <br />restrict organizations to spending the majority of profits in the City. <br /> <br />Assistant City Administrator Reed explained the 3% in the Roseville ordinance is used for <br />regulating the organizations. <br /> <br />Bob Wharton of 7462 Spring Lake Road explained that the reporting mentioned by Staff is for <br />gross income minus prizes and expenses to establish net income from that site. He then <br />explained that after that is where the big bucks come into play. He further commented that <br />combined profit is not shown for the entire organization on that form it is only income from that <br />site after expenses.
