Charitable Gambling Ordinance - First Reading � • CITY OF ROSEMOONT EXECUTIVE 3UMMARY FOR ACTION CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: JUNE 6, 1995 AGENDA ITEM: CHARITABLE GAMBLING ORDINANCE - AGENDA SECTION: FIRST READING NEW BUSINESS PREPARED BY: SUSAN M. WALSH AGENDA N��n/� � � � � ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT � � !YI ATTACHMENTS: DRAFT ORDINANCE APPROVED BY: At the March 21, 1995 City Council meeting, the City Council directed city staff and the city attorney to prepare a charitable gambling ordinance to regulate and control charitable gambling within the City. Attorney LeFevere has drafted such an ordinance for Council consideration. The ordinance addresses issues and suggested regulations the City Council wanted to see in the new ordinance. As a first reading of the ordinance, we consider this a first draft and subject to revisions. I have mailed a copy of this draft to the charitable gambling organizations and the businesses where gambling is being conducted in Rosemount and advised them discussion will be held at this council meeting and at least again at the June 20, 1995 Council meeting. The charitable gambling organizations have asked to be informed on the progress of the ordinance and some have expressed a desire to give their input on its contents. Staff recommendation at this time is to receive input and further direction from the City Council on this draft ordinance.
