Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the license, conditioned upon receipt of proof of continuing coverage for workers compensation and the final background investigation remaining favorable. If these conditions arc not met, action to rescind the license will be taken at the January 26,2004 regular Council meeting. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Motion to approve the application of Paul Ode for an On Sale and Off Sale 3.2 Percent Malt Liquor license for Navarre Lanes at 3435 Shoreline Drive effective January 1,2004 through December 31 ,2004, conditioned upon receipt of proof of continuing coverage for workers compensation insurance and the final background investigation remaining favorable. If these conditions arc not met, action to rescind the license will be taken at the January 26,2004 regular Council meeting. I 4 . ? y r Date: 12/15/03 To: Lin Vcc From: Kurt Erickson Ref: Paul Ode Liquor License Application onicer Wittke is assigned to do the investigation on this application. He has been very busy with criminal matters that are restricting his ability to expedite this application. In an elTort to accommiHiatc Mr. Ode. I have spoken to the Wiser Insurance Agency in Mound. 1 hey confirmed that a liquor liability policy was issued to Mr. Odc/PJM Tru.st. They stated a copy of the policy was faxed to the city last week. I have also spoken(12/l5/03) to the Minnesota Workers C ompcn.sation Insurers AssiKiation(MWCIA). JelTKvam from MWCIA told me that Uerkley Risk Administrators Company has been assigned the ODF7PJM I’rust account, fhere is incomplete information that while not enough to turn down coverage is limiting the coverage to 30 days pending completion of the application pnKcss. Mr. Ode will therefore have 30 days of workers compensation coverage elfective 01/01/04 and will have to furnish the rest of the missing info to continue coverage beyond the 30 days. The raw background checks and finger print check that arc completed do not disclose any disqualifying information. With the information I have been given so far. 1 believe the final report will recommend approval. Given the MWCIA binder that will give 30 days coverage I would suggest that the City mirror that time frame and give Mr. Ode until the January 26''’ council meeting to have everylhing finalized and proof of full coverage on the workers compensation issue and not just a binder for 30 days. I believe that a motion should be made approving Mr. Ode's liquor license application elfective 01/01/04. the continuance of this license beyond January 26. 2004 is conditioned on Mr. Ode having satisfactorily completed all outstanding issue's with obtaining full insurance coverage before 01/26/04 and the finalized background investigation remaining favorable to the license issuance. Mr. Ode must request the final approval for January ’ 26.2004 after obtaining issued policies, not limited binders or applications for coverage, from his insurance providers and giving them to the City for final consideration. If Mr. Ode fails to request or provide the requested documents the liquor license will be rescinded on 01/26/03. I t PROM : MUClfi FOX NO. : 18002S79G71 Dao.
