2015 Annual Report • Liquor Operations • St. Anthony Village, Minnesota <br /> <br /> <br />1 | Page <br /> <br />I. Liquor Operations <br />On February 10, 1948, St. Anthony Village City Council passed an ordinance to form a <br />municipal liquor store operation. To this day, the profits from the liquor operations provide a <br />much needed revenue source for our community. The November 27, 1947 edition of the <br />Minneapolis Star newspaper reported that nine metro-area communities were operating <br />municipal liquor stores with glowing results. Profits from these stores help to reduce the <br />Property Tax Levy, provide funds for special projects, and provide funds for equipment <br />purchases for the Police, Fire and Public Works Departments. The Village of Excelsior reported <br />that “one-third of the cost of operating the Village is paid with profits from the municipal liquor <br />store.” Two months later, the Village of St. Anthony passed an ordinance to open their own <br />municipal liquor store and the rest is history! <br /> <br />ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE <br /> <br /> Liquor Operations Manager <br />Mike Larson – Full Time <br />Asst.
