e <br />MEMO T0: Mayor and City <br />FROM: Clerk-Administ <br />DATE: May 17, 1983 <br />SUBJECT: PRO WOMEN'S IVRESTLING <br />Attached please find correspondence this office received from <br />Mr. John A. Cafarella proposing Pro Women's Wrestling matches <br />at the Bel -Rae Ballroom on June 29th and July 20th. <br />This memorandum is being written to obtain Council direction <br />regarding the requirements the City of Mounds View might wish to <br />take should you choose to authorize such matches. A review of <br />State statutes reveals that no State agency is responsible for <br />the licensing of this type of activity. Therefore, it would <br />appear that the City of Mounds View would need to take appropriate <br />measures to ensure that the interests of the City are being <br />protected. <br />With that in mind, this office indicated to Mr. Cafarella that <br />liability insurance would be required, as well as a signed release <br />from each participant releasing the City from any responsibility. <br />Other requirements the City might wish to consider, should you <br />wish to license this activity, could be similar to those required <br />for boxing, namely: <br />1. Two uniformed, sworn police officers, approved by the <br />Mounds View Police Chief, in attendance at each match, <br />with the officers being reimbursed by the promoter. <br />2. The promoter remitting $100.00 in advance to the City as <br />a license fee for each evening of wrestling matches. <br />3. All beer setups and other refreshments dispensed in paper <br />cups. <br />9. Premises closed by 12:00 Midnight. <br />Your direction in this matter will be greatly appreciated. <br />DFP/pf <br />Attachment <br />g <br />
