RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ACQUISITION OF A POOL TABLE

WHEREAS, American Amusement Arcades, the owner of the foosball table, pool
tables and air hockey table at the Mounds View Community Center, notified the City of their
intent to remove the machines along with the change dispensing machine; and,

machines by written correspondence in November of 2008; and,
WHEREAS, the YMCA Advisory Committee reviewed the options and assessed the
value of the machines to the overall function of the facility, finding that it would be
beneficial to retain one pool table and the foosball table; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council considered the relevant options at meetings on
November 24 and December 1, 2008, and directed staff to prepare a resolution to
formalize the acquisition consistent with the Committee's recommendation.
