He <br />also indicated that he has received complaints from citizens regarding noise. The Chief <br />indicated that Ms. Glen is working with the police department to try to get the situation <br />under control. <br /> <br />Juanita Glen, Wapiti Park manager, informed the Council that she has implemented rules for <br />the campground and is attempting to get rid of the problem people. Ms. Glen handed out <br />the campground rules to the Council. <br /> <br />Mayor Kdinzing indicated that it is the recommendation of the Chief of Police that Wapiti <br />Park Campgrounds is put on notice that there is currently a problem at the campground. <br />Councilmember Dietz indicated that if the problem continues, the Council should consider <br />not renewing the beer license that will be due on July 1. <br /> <br />Susan Sevruid, 5349 Park Avenue South, Minneapolis, MN, stated that she keeps a motor <br />home at the camp. She noted that not all 86 calls are related to the sale of beer and does not <br />feel the 3.2 liquor license is the problem.
