MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Jessie Hart, Finance Officer <br /> <br />DATE: January 9, 1997 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Approval to Operate a Shot Gun Raffle <br /> <br />The attached application from White Wind Wildlife Society for exemption from a lawful <br />gambling license to hold a shot gun raffle during the 1997 Game Fair, which is held in the City <br />of Ramsey. City approval/denial is necessary under the State Statutes. The White Wind Wildlife <br />Society meets all of the requirements which allows them to remain exempt from licensing, <br />primarily from the standpoint that the shot gun to be raffled is valued at less than $750.00. <br /> <br />While the Game Fair is a nmnber of months away, the White Wind Wildlife Society is currently <br />submitting a similar application to the Gambling Control Board through the City of Roseville for <br />a raffle to take place in the near future. By submitting both applications at the same time, it <br />saves the Society from paying duplicate fees and requires only one background check by the <br />Board, again saving the Society fees. <br /> <br />Approval requires nothing more than a motion followed by a letter to the Gambling Control <br />Board, while if the request is denied, a formal resolution for denial would need to be prepared <br />and submitted to the Gambling Control Board. <br /> <br /> <br />
