Mayor Pickar stated that as long as there were juveniles employed there would be
no way that liquor could be sold. The permit from the Police Chief indicates
the station has had more thefts since it has been opened 24 hours per day.
Councilmember Rowley stated that since there are minors employed, the station is
opened 24 hours and the Police Department has indicated there has been problems
with hold -ups, she would deny the license request.
Councilmember Shelquist stated he trades at this station and when he goes into
the station there is usually several other youngsters, in addition to the
attendant, around the station. Based on this he would recommend that no
liquor license be issued.
Councilmember Hodges and Baumgartner agreed.
MSP (Rowley - Shelquist) that the Council deny the non - intoxicating liquor license
to the Martin Oil station, 2901 Highway 10, for the following reasons as
indicated in the Police Chief's recommendations:
1. The station employes minors under the legal drinking age
2. Juveniles frequent the station which is open 24 hours /day
3. The station has been a target for hold -ups and thefts
Ms. Price thanked the Council for their time.
At 9:30 p.m. the meeting was recessed. Mayor Pickar called the meeting back to
order at 9:50 p.m.
RESOLUTION OF COMMENT ON METROPOLITAN COUNCIL MODEST COST PRIVATE HOUSING
ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT
5 ayes
Mayor Pickar stated this was brought about when the Metro Council furnished the
City with a report on what they would like to do to increase the amount of low
cost housing in the Metro area. The administration of Mounds View is quite upset
about the potential control the Metro Council would have with this study and their
proposed changes. A joint meeting of the Council and Planning Commission was held
to discuss this project. The same night Councilmember Baumgartner attended a
session with the Metro Council to state Mounds View's comments and suggestions
on this report. The City has drawn up a resolution on what our stand is with the
Modest Cost Private Housing Report.
Administrator Achen read the proposed resolution of comment.
MS (Shelquist- Hodges) to adopt Resolution No. 782, "Comments on Metropolitan Council's
Modest Cost Private Housing Advisory Committee Report."
Councilmember Baumgartner stated that all of the other 18 persons on the agenda
did agree with the intent of the report but also agreed that this report barely
scratches the surface of the problem. The report also suggests that this problem
is directly involved with the particular ordinances of the City.
Councilmember Baumgartner then reviewed some of the recommendations made by the
Metro Council and stated that the persons present felt that it should be locally
dealt with. The Metro Council also recommends that State Aid Funds be added as
incentive for a community to comply with their recoiuinendations. They recommended
that if the local communities did not revise their comprehensive plan to accommodate
the requirements of the Metro Council they could through legal mandate require this.
