• 9 . Communications and Petitions A. League of Minnesota Cities nominations for officers and directors. Informational unless the Council has nominations in mind. ACTION: Council B. St. Anthony Village Post 513 regarding parade on June 18th. We have had no problems with parades in the past. ACTION: Recommend Approval. C. Hennepin County Alcohol Safety Action Project Special Legis- lative Bulletin. I would recommend that we oppose this bill as now structured. Minnesota presently has the highest liquor tax in the nation and I feel that some of the revenue already collected should be used for purposes such as the bill proposes instead of adding further taxes to liquor. Additional taxes on liquor will, I feel, hurt our liquor busi- ness, and tourism in Minnesota. ACTION: Recommend we support the bill but without additional taxes. D. Presentation of Jaycees Distinguished Service Award by • Councilman Sauer. E. Letter of Resignation from Chief Brown. I feel the Council should accept the resignation and move to present Chief Brown with a certificate of commendation for his many years of fine service to the City and its residents. ACTION: Council. F. Request by Apache Corporation that the City accept as a City street the service road located just east of the Firestone Building. I have had contact with Apache Corporation regard- ing this request and they indicated they would put it in writing for the meeting however, I have not received it. I have reviewed the request with the public works superintendent and he recommends we don't accept it. I see no advantage to the City to take it over. ACTION: Recommend denial. G. Metro Parks and Open Space Committee, informational. ACTION: Council. H. State of Minnesota Department of Transportation. The attached agreement provides for reimbursement for the City for main- tenance of 29th while it was used for a detour for T.H. 8. ACTION: Recommend Approval.
