• 6 . Ordinances and Resolutions A. Resolution 77-042. A Resolution Modifying the 1977 Budget. The resolution decreases the appropriation in the winter part-time maintenance account and increases the appropriation in the summer part-time -maintenance account. ACTION: Recommend Approval. B. Resolution 77-046 . A Resolution Modifying the 1977 Budget. This is an "in and out" transfer of funds received from the City of Columbia Heights for gasoline to increase the appropriation to the account from which gasoline is purchased. ACTION: Recommend Approval . 7. Old Business A. American Legion Post No. 513 request for an "on-sale" club liquor license. The City attorney has made a very thorough re- view of Statutes regulating the issuance of these licenses . As noted, it appears that State Statutes are confusing. The City attorney feels that the City does have the authority to issue such a license but points out several requirements and/ or' problems. If the Council wishes to grant the license, I recommend the following conditions : (1) The license be restricted to the present confines of the Club or, better yet, the basement level (on the application the Post specifies "basement" - this • would be agreeable to them) ; (2) The Club be required to also be licensed for a "set-up" license at $300 per year, and (3) The license be nonrenewable, if legally permissible (see attorney' s comments page 5) . It should also be noted that the City can require a $3 ,000 - $5, 000 surety bond. The Legion possesses a $3,000 bond plus they will have $100 ,000 in Dram Shop liquor insurance. The license application is dated (notarized) Septem- ber 15th, exactly one-half year from the March 15th license expiration date so under City ordinance they could be charged $50. 00 rather than $100.00 for the license. The Club would not start operations until October 1, 1977 . ACTION: Review and, if all facts are present, decide on the issuance. 8. New Business - None 9 . Communications/Petitions A. Metro Transit Commission re: passenger waiting shelters. The shelter at approximately 4000 Silver Lake Road has been approved and one is contemplated at 37th and Silver Lake Road. If you have any ideas, let me know. ACTION: Make proposals where the Council feels there is a need and sufficient room. • (2)
