it V ETING <br />Ilil � rya 11 ��?7 <br />t ' <br />league of minnesota cities <br />February 7, 1985 <br />TO: City Administrators and Clerks <br />FROM: Joel J. Jamnik, Legislative Counsel <br />RE: Charitable Gambling Rules <br />Effective March 1, 1985, all lawful gambling will be subject to regulation by <br />the Charitable Gambling Control Board. Although licensing will be handled a - <br />the state level instead of the local level, the new rules do permit cities' <br />continued participation in the licensing process. <br />The rules require the following actions at the local level: <br />1. Applicant delivers a copy of the license application to the city clerk. <br />The application includes a notice that the gambling license, if approved by <br />the Board, will become effective within 30 'days unless disapproved by the <br />city council. <br />2. Clerk signs an acknowledgement of receipt of the application and notice. <br />3. Within 30 days, the council b}- resolution approves or disapproves the <br />application and the clerk so notifies the Board. <br />A copy of the rule prescribing these requirements is attached; see Proposed Rule <br />7860.0040, subpart 4. As you may note, cities' involvement in the gambling <br />license process is very similar to the process for liquor consumption and <br />display permits. <br />The Board will provide all of the forms necessary for application and <br />notification. For your information, a sample form has been enclosed. <br />If you have any specific questions regarding the licensing procedures for lawful <br />gambling, please feel free to contact me at the League office. <br />1 F33 tsriiversity c'i.
