r� <br />**ITEM <br />c � <br />ty o MEMORANDUM <br />ikk�l TO: Mayor & City Council <br />River <br />FROM: Sandra Thackeray, City Clerk <br />DATE: December 18, 1995 <br />SUBJECT: Premises Permit Application - Elk <br />River /Roger VFW Post #5518 <br />Introduction <br />5.5. ** <br />Elk River/Rogers VFW Post #5518 has made application for a premises <br />permit to operate pull tabs at the Eagles Club. <br />Background <br />State law requires the local government unit to pass a resolution either <br />approving or denying the application for a premises permit prior to the <br />Gambling Control Board's review of the application. <br />Elk River/Rogers VFW Post currently operates pull tabs at the Sunshine <br />Depot. They have now made application to also sell pull tabs at the Eagles <br />Club located at 824 Railroad Drive. State law does not restrict the number of <br />locations in which an organization may sell pull tabs. <br />The Elk River/Rogers VFW Post is aware of the city's requirement of <br />spending 75 percent of its lawful expenditures within the city's trade area. I <br />have attached the expenditure of funds report for 1994 and 1995 showing <br />that the VFW has complied with the city's ordinance while selling pull tabs <br />at Sunshine Depot. <br />I do not believe that the Eagles will be renewing their premises permit to sell <br />pull tabs at their location of 824 Railroad Drive. <br />Action Requested <br />Council motion to adopt the attached resolution approving a premises permit <br />for the Elk River/Rogers VFW Post to sell pull tabs at the Eagles Club. <br />13065 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 490 • Elk River, MN 55330 • (612) 441 -7420 • Fax: (612) 441 -7425 <br />
