MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 10, 2014
AGENDA#: 5H
PREPARED BY: JANET RINGBERG, ACCOUNTING SPECIALIST
PRESENTED BY: FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGER
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PRIOR LAKE
WATER SKI ASSOCIATION PREMISE PERMIT FOR LAWFUL GAMBLING
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda report is to consider approval of a resolution approving
a lawful gambling premise permit for the Prior Lake Water Ski Association. Under
state statute the City has the right to deny lawful gambling permits with respect to
pull tabs.
History
The State Gambling Control Board allows non-profit organizations to apply for lawful
gambling premise permits as a means to raise funds for their organization. The City
must pass a resolution approving the premise permit request. As a general rule,
proceeds from these gambling operations are often returned to the community by
way of donations to cities, school districts, etc.
Current Circumstances
The Prior Lake Water Ski Association is applying for a premise permit for lawful
gambling at Memories on Main, 16211 Main Avenue, Prior Lake. This permit would
allow them to sell pull tabs at this location as a means of fundraising. Once the City
approves the initial premise permit request no other action is required at the local
level. Thereafter, premise permits are renewed annually through the State Gambling
Control Board.
Conclusion
The Prior Lake Police Department has completed an investigation of this applicant
and has found that there have been no complaints concerning this organization.
FINANCIAL The Prior Lake Waterski Association has paid the $100.00 premise permit applica-
IMPACT: tion fee. It is also possible that the City could be the recipient of future donations
funded by this gambling operation.
ALTERNATIVES: 1. Adopt the proposed premise permit resolution as part of the consent agenda.
2. Deny the proposed premise permit resolution.
RECOMMENDED Alternative #1.
