5.k Gammelgarden gambling permitSCANDIA Staff Report Date of Meeting: July 17, 2018 To: City Council From: Brenda Eklund, Deputy Clerk Re: Gammelgarden Museum Application for an Excluded Raffle Permit Background: The Gammelgarden Museum has applied for an Excluded Raffle Permit for their fundraising event planned for September 8, 2018, immediately prior to the Taco Daze parade. The Gambling Ordinance (No. 100) requires a local permit to conduct lawful gambling that is excluded or exempted from state licensure requirements. Issue: Should the City approve Gammelgarden Museum's application for an Excluded Raffle Permit? Proposal Details: As they have done since 2011, the organization will sell chances on the "Running of the Meatballs" which will occur on Oakhill Road, starting at Elim Church, down the hill to the east. Special golf balls will be rolled down the hill and prizes awarded based on when the balls cross the finish line. The value of all prizes given will be $2,000. The Scandia Marine Lions Club will again include this activity in their Special Event Permit for the parade and the rest of the Taco Daze events. The 501(c)(3) organization and the event appear to meet all the requirements of the city's ordinance. Fiscal Impact: None Options: 1) Approve the Gammelgarden Museum's Excluded Raffle Permit. 2) Do not approve the request for a raffle permit. 3) Make no decision at this meeting.
