EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR DISCUSSION
COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE
DATE: March 15, 2000
The City of Rosemount now limits the number of off -sale liquor businesses in the city to two licenses.
Because of other inquiries made for off -sale liquor sales, staff was directed to survey other communities
as to regulations and fees. This issue is brought back to the council for further review because MGM is
still interested in establishing an off -sale liquor business in the city. It is presently in the process of
acquiring a site and needs this issue resolved prior to platting and purchasing the site.
