City Council Minutes March 5, 1984 page Four Councilmember Gunkel indicated that she felt the licensing of the video game machines located at the hockey arena does not fit the temporary license as used in Section 710.08, Sub. 2 of the City Code, and therefore, suggested that the City Council perhaps consider the pro-rating of the license. Mayor Hinkle indicated that he felt the Hockey Association should pay the annual license fee, as it was not a temporary situation. Councilmember Engstrom indicated that he felt the fee should be pro-rated, as it was a non-profit organization, specifically for youth activities. Mr. Bob Straw indic~ted that generally, vendors, owners of the machines pay for the license rather than the place of location of the machines. COUNCILMEMBER GUNKEL MOVED TO DENY THE TEMPORARY AMUSEMENT DEVICE LICENSE REQUEST AND TO ISSUE AN AMUSEMENT DEVICE LICENSE FOR THE THREE VIDEO GAMES LOCATED AT THE HOCKEY ARENA FOR THE FULL ANNUAL FEE OF $35.00 PER MACHINE. COUNCILMEMBER DUITSMAN SECONDED THE MOTION. THE MOTION PASSED 4-0. 10. Sale of City Property on Highway #169 Mayor Hinkle indicated that several council meetings ago, the question of whether or not to sell the City-owned property on Highway 11169 was raised, and at that time, the City Council indicated that they would prefer to discuss the matter more fully at a separate time. Mayor Hinkle indicated that the property could be used for dirt or gravel and further indicated that he felt the City Council should not consider selling the property until there was a need to sell. Councilmember Duitsman indicated that he felt the City Council should wait until the municipal feasibility study is completed before the consideration of selling the property on Highway #169. Councilmember Schuldt indicated that he felt the property on Highway #169 was prime property and that the City should not consider selling until there was a need.
