CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION 99-XX
APPROVING PRIOR LAKE OPTIMIST PREMISE PERMITS
FOR LAWFUL GAMBLING
CurrentCucumsmnces
Under state statute the City has the right to deny lawful gambling
permit requests with respect to pulltabs. The City has received a
renewal request from the Prior Lake Optimist Club for pulltab premise
permits for Hollywood Bar & Grill and Extra Innings Saloon.
The Issues
The Prior Lake Optimist Club has provided the City with the required
documents and has paid the $200.00 renewal fee ($100.00 for each
premise permit). The Prior Lake Police Department has completed its
investigation of this organization. On or before November 16, 1998
illegal gambling occurred at the Extra Innings Saloon. This was not
related to the Prior Lake Optimist Club's pull-tab operation. The
Minnesota Gambling Control Board issued a Consent Order in
resp<;mse to this violation by suspending all lawful gambling, including
pull-tabs, for 30 days at Extra Innings Saloon beginning May 16, 1999.
The suspension does not disqualify the Optimist Club from requesting
a renewal of their premise permit for Extra Innings Saloon. No other
problems were reported.
The City Council has the following alternatives:
1. Adopt the proposed premise permits resolution.
2. Deny the premise permit renewal requests.
Staff recommends Council approve the renewal of premise permits for
the Prior Lake Optimist Club for Hollywood Bar & Grill and Extra
Innings Saloon.
