FRATERNAL ORDER OF EAGLES <br /> <br />824 NW Railroad Drive <br />Elk River, MN. 55330 <br /> <br />Our Eagles Pull Tab operation is open only while the V.F.W. <br />Pull Tab operation is closed down. We are open from 12:30 pm <br />to 2:30 pm Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 2:30 pm on <br />Saturday and 12 Noon to 2:30 pm on Sunday. The V.F.W. opera- <br />tion is open from 2:30 pm to closing or earlier if no busi~,ess <br />warrants it. <br /> <br />The Eagles Club wants to continue with their premise permit <br />at their bar location, as net receipts can be used towards <br />paying their property tax with monies left over for locally <br />lawful purpose donations. <br /> <br />The V.F.W. is in the process of developing a Youth Sports <br />Complex in Otsego. Four Soccer Fields are completed and in <br />use and a Youth Activity Building is in the process of being <br />built. This project should be completed this fall. Future <br />plans are to double the size of the Youth Activity Building <br />and develop additional athletic fields as funds become avail- <br />able. With the additional gambling site at the Eagles Club, <br />they can complete these projects in a much shorter time span. <br /> <br />We feel that it's not fair to enact a ordinance that benefits <br />one local organization at the expense of two other local orga- <br />nizations. The V.F.W. and the Eagles should either be grand- <br />fathered in at the Eagles Club or the ordinance be further <br />amended indicating that two premise permits at one establish- <br />ment will be permitted, providing only one can be in effect <br />during operating hours. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />President <br />Elk River Aerie ~3264, F.O.E. <br /> <br /> <br />
