CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 20, 2017
AGENDA #: 5H
PREPARED BY: JANET RINGBERG, ACCOUNTING SPECIALIST
PRESENTED BY: FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGER
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING A PREMISE PER-
MIT FOR LAWFUL GAMBLING (PULL TAB LICENSE) FOR THE PRIOR LAKE-
SAVAGE HOCKEY ASSOCIATION
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 - Savage Hockey Association.
Under state statute the City has the right to deny lawful gambling permits with re-
spect to pull tabs.
History
The State Gambling Control Board allows non-profit organizations to apply for law-
ful 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 commu-
nity by way of donations to cities, school districts, etc.
Current Circumstances
The Prior Lake - Savage Hockey Association is applying for a premise permit for
lawful gambling at Teresa’s Mexican Restaurant, 6880 Boudin Street NE, Prior
Lake. This permit would allow them to offer pull-tabs, tipboards, and paddle-
wheels at this location as a means of fundraising. The funds raised through this
gambling activity will benefit local sports organizations. This will be the second lo-
cation for pull tabs for this association as they have already received approval of a
premise permit at Charlies on Prior.
Once the City approves the initial premise permit request no other action is re-
quired 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.

The Prior Lake - Savage Hockey Association has paid the $100.00 premise permit
