JANET RINGBERG, LICENSE CLERK
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING PRIOR LAKE
OPTIMIST CLUB PREMISE PERMIT FOR LAWFUL GAMBLING
Under state statute the City has the right to deny lawful gambling permit
requests with respect to pulltabs. The City has received a request from the
Prior Lake Optimist Club for a pulltab premise permit for O'Malley's On Main.
At the December 3, 2007 meeting, City Council denied the renewal of the
premise permit for Baseball Association 191 at O'Malley's On Main. The
Optimists Club would like to take over the gambling operations for that
location. The Optimists currently have premise permits for gambling at
Hollywood Bar & Grill and Extra Innings. Hollywood Bar & Grill is now closed
indefinitely due to health code violations and it is unknown when or if they will
be allowed to reopen. With that closure the Optimists have no gambling
income coming from that location.
The Prior Lake Optimist Club has provided the City with the required
documents and has paid the $100.00 license fee. The Prior Lake Police
Department has completed its investigation of this organization and has found
no reason to deny this permit request.
The City Council has the following alternatives:
1. Adopt the proposed premise permit resolution.
2. Deny the premise permit request.
Staff recommends Council approve the premise permit for the Prior Lake
Optimist Club for O'Malley's On Main.
