AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A MASSAGE THERAPY LICENSE FOR JENNIFER
SCHMIDT
DISCUSSION: Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to consider approval of a massage therapy li-
cense for Jennifer Schmidt.
History
Massage therapists are required to be licensed in the City of Prior Lake if they are
not working directly under a state licensed practitioner such as a physical thera-
pists or a chiropractor.
Current Circumstances
Jennifer Schmidt, 8860 188th Street, Belle Plaine MN, has applied for a massage
therapy license in order to practice massage therapy in Prior Lake. She currently
works for Capable Kids Pediatric Therapy in Chaska doing massage therapy for
children as part of their overall physical therapy program. Being issued a massage
therapy license in Prior Lake would allow Ms. Schmidt to go to her client’s homes
to perform this therapy. Ms. Schmidt has provided the city with the required proof
of education and training. Her license will be valid until December 31, 2016, at
which time it would be subject to renewal along with all other licensed massage
therapists in Prior Lake.
Conclusion
The Prior Lake Police Department has completed its investigation of this applicant
to ensure that all issues concerning public safety and compliance have been met.
FINANCIAL

Ms. Schmidt has paid the $100.00 investigation fee and the $100.00 annual li-
cense fee.
