AN ORDINANCE ADMI DING CHAPTER 11 OF THE CITY ORDINANCES REGARDING LIQUOR
AN ORDINANCE AMFVDING CHAPTER 23 OF TIE ORDINANCES REGARDING LIQUOR LICENSE
•
11 -7 -83 -7-
The City Manager explained that the ordinances were first read on October 17, 1983;
published on October 27, 1983, and are offered for a. second reading this evening.
Mayor Nyquist introduced a motion to amend the ordinance by establishing three
classes for liquor licenses, one being, establishments which sell 40% to 49% food
with a license fee of $14,000, the second class, to 79% food with a fee of
$11,000, and the third class of establishment, selling and above food with a
license "fee "of $8,000. Mayor Nyquist's amendment also included delaying the
effective date of the fee schedule revisions for on -sale intoxicating liquor
licenses to January 1, 1985 and the revisions proposed by the City Attorney in his
memorandum dated November 2, 1983.
Councilmember Theis seconded the motion for purposes of discussion.
The City Manager reviewed the amendments to the liquor ordinance submitted by the
City Attorney and noted that they were technical in nature.
Councilmember Lhotka inquired how many licenses were currently in each of the
classes proposed by Mayor Nyquist. The City Manager replied that there were two
establishments in the 80% and above class, two in the 40% to 49% class, and five in
the 50% to 79% class.
The City Attorney stated that in item No. 3 in his memorandum dated November 2, 1983
the reference to Class D should be changed to Class C since the Class D license is
eliminated by the amendment,
Councilmember Theis reviewed the City Attorney's memorandum .regarding the liquor
license ordinance and dated November 4, 1983, and explained that the memorandum
addresses establishments that had significant income from items other than food and
liquor.
With regard to the City Attorney's memorandum, dated 1ovember 4, 1983, Mayor Nyquist
pointed out that a separate statute exists for split liquor and it does not address
"establishments ". He added that he also believes that there would be a
discrimination problem if these types of establishments were differentiated in the
ordinance
The City Attorney commented that he believes there would be a problem of
discrimination and cited the example of a "pure" restaurant having its license
revoked for going below the required ratio. He pointed out that it is difficult to
justify the situation where a particular establishment should be held to a lesser
standard than a .restaurant.
Councilmember Theis commented that the common practice in bowling alleys is that the
clientele tends to drink and not eat during bowling matches'. The City Attorney
commented that the legal community has accepted the bowling /liquor /food
establishment as qualifying under the split liquor statute which addresses only
hotels and restaurants. He added that this acceptance has not yet been challenged.
Mayor Nyquist commented that the establishments are licensed because they are
restaurants
Councilmember Theis stated that he believes the bowling alley is a different type
establishment, and'that he is concerned with this difference in any fee schedule
structure.
11 -7 -83 -8-
Councilmember Lhotka stated that he views the situation as two different
establishments and explained that the restaurant is a new business added to the
bowling business. Councilmember Lhotka then inquired what the increase cost in
administration has been with regard to liquor establishments and the licensing
process. The City Manager stated that Administrative Assistant Hoffman conducted
a study approximately two years ago and the cost in $23,000 from 1969., He
added that the ordinance is designed to address a specific type of business and that
evidence shows that more liquor served at an establishment means more calls for
service. He added that the City does not have a bar problem now and that the
ordinance is an attempt to keep the situation that way. He stated he believes there
should be some penalty for dropping below 50/"' sales in food.
Councilmember Lhotka stated that he was concerned about covering the administrative
cost, The City Manager replied that.the fee schedule has never been directed at
recovering costs but rather as a control measure. Councilmember Lhotka then asked
the City Manager to comment on the Mayor's amendment to the ordinance. The City
Manager stated the staff approached the liquor ordinance with a recommendation for
an increase in license fees and the Chamber proposed a reduction. He added that the
end result will probably be a compromise between the two proposals. He explained
that the 1984 Budget does not reflect an increase in the liquor license fee schedule.
Councilmember Lhotka stated that he is concerned that the fee schedule is equitable
and that he also believes it should be increased. He added that he does not have a
real problem with the amendment but believes the issue will be before the Council
again in the future.
Councilmember Scott commented that she believes Mayor Nyquist's compromises is the
best possible solution, and that she preferred the sliding fee over two distinct
categories of licenses. She added that she does not like using liquor licenses to
make money since the purpose of the licensing process is to maintain quality
establishments. She added that she supports the Mayor's proposal and pointed out
that presently the City's license fees are higher than other cities in the area.
She added that she does not want to see fees discourage any new establishments.
Councilmember Hawes stated that he also supports the Mayor's proposal and that
apparently the business community does not object to it. He added that he believes
the argument for keeping the one day beer license at $10 and not $25 is also a good
recommendation.
Councilmember Theis stated that he believes the percentage problem with .regard to
the food /liquor .ratio will continue since he does not think the problem is solved.
Mayor Nyquist noted that the situation of establishments being on the edge of the
various classes with regard to the food /liquor sales will never totally be solved
Mayor Nyquist opened the meeting for the purpose of a public hearing on An Ordinance
Amending Chapter 11 of the City Ordinances Regarding Liquor and An Ordinance
Amending Chapter 23 of the City Ordinances Regarding Liquor license Fees.
Mayor Nyquist recognized Mr. Jack Weber who stated that as a .representative of the
Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber is in complete agreement with the Mayor's amendment
with regard to the license fee classifications and also with the one year moratorium
on the effective date of the ordinance. He added that all license holders in the
City are also in agreement with the amendment.
11 -7 -83; -g-
Mayor Nyquist recognized Mr. Ken Felger, Vice President of the Brooklyn Center
Jaycees, who stated that he would like to address the proposed increase in the
temporary on -sale beer license which is currently at $10 per day per location. He
pointed out that the increase in this license is one of the highest percentage
increases in the liquor ordinance. He then reviewed the license fees charged by
other cities for similar licenses and pointed out that Crystal's fee is $13.25 per
day per location, Brooklyn Park's is $20 per week, and the City of Fridley can waive
the fee for nonprofit groups.
Mr. Felger outlined the accomplishments of the Brooklyn Center Jaycees which
included the Sports Award Program, the C.E.A.P. shopping spree, which provides
underprivileged children with money for Christmas presents for members of their
family, and also various park improvements.
Mr. Felger requested the City Council to .review the license fee and stated that he
believes the $25 increase will not appreciably affect the .revenue for the City. He
stated that he would request the license fee charged for temporary on -sale beer
licenses be kept as is or waived, as is done in Fridley, in consideration of the
Jaycees contribution to the City and citizens of Brooklyn Center.
Councilmember Lhotka inquired as to the administrative cost and number of temporary
on -sale licenses. The City Manager replied that the charge for a one day event does
not .recover the administrative cost but that two days might, and pointed out that the
average administrative cost is between $15 and $25. He added that few licenses are
issued and that they are generally issued on a daily basis.
Mr. Felger stated that last year one license extended for several days and was $80
and another was $40. He added that the Jaycees is not opposed to _paying their own i
way but he added he believes the $25 for a license is too significant an increase.
There was a motion by Councilmember. Lhotka and seconded by Councilmember Scott to
retain the fee of $10 for temporary on -sale beer licenses. Voting in favor: Mayor
Nyquist, Council-members Ihotka, Scott, Hawes, and Theis. Voting against: none.
The motion passed unanimously.
Mayor Nyquist recognized Ms. Debra Stinson, President of the Citizens for Better
Government. Ms. Stinson stated that the Citizens for Better Government requests
that the Council postpone the vote on the liquor ordinance to the next Council
meeting. She added that this .request is made because the Citizens for Better
Government is interested in holding a meeting of it's membership to discuss
proposing recommendations to the City Council regarding the liquor ordinance. She
added that the Citizens for Better Government plans to hold their meeting this

MINNESOTA CHAPTER dg �►
Ame rican Public Works Association
Dear Local Government Leader:
What if a major tornado, windstorm, or flood hit your area today?
Would you have enough manpower and equipment to cope with such events?
Experience has shown that no single organization is able to adequately deal
the Minnesota Chapter
em P
om this � robl ,
help e
ions. To h P
with these situat p
of the American Public Works Association (MPWA), has concluded that a new
cooperative approach would be very beneficial to most local government or-
ganizations.
The solution would be for the government agencies to set up mutual aid
assistance groups around the state to provide the basis of aiding each other
when such major events occur. Police and fire departments have used similar
approaches successfully.for many years. Such aid would be done totally on a
voluntary basis sis with no one being required to provide either manpower, nor
q
equipment to any other organization, unless they chose to do so.
By entering into a joint cooperative agreement now for the use of other or-
ganizations, personnel and equipment, you will be prepared for fast action.
You would have information already available showing what equipment others
own, who to contact (including after working hours), and be able to move at
once, without red tape delays: The cost of operating such associations is
anticipated to be extremely small.
Please review the accompanying model resolution and mutual aid agreement, or
give it to the appropriate individual in your organization.' I hope that it
will explain the proposed approach. If you have any questions, please list
them with the tear -off portion of the next page, contact any of the committee
members, or attend the fall meeting of MPWA scheduled for November 17 and 18,
Brooklyn Park,_ Minnesota.
Please do not put off consideration' of this idea on the assumption that it
would not happen to you, the feeling that others would not actually help with
your problem, or that it would not be useful. First -hand experience in my
community, as the result of a tornado in 1981, demonstrated very clearly
that it can happen to you, others do have resources and a willingness to
hel
assist, and being ready and prepared a tremendous
mendou
s is P•
i
:The MPWA is willing to help get the local governments in your area organized, r
In order to do so, we need to know your reaction and interest, even if it is
negative. Please return the tear -off portion below with the appropriate infor-
mation. Thank you very much for your assistance.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Gerald G. Splinter, City Manager
FROM: Director of Finance
DATE: December 1, 1983
SUBJECT: INSURANCE PROPOSALS
Currently, the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT) has the
City of Brooklyn Center's insurance contract for property, liability, and
workers' compensation coverage. LMCIT does not offer excess risk (umbrella)
coverage, nor liquor liability coverage. Currently, we are insured for
liquor liability by the Ideal Mutual Insurance Company through the James
Agency. They have had our insurance contract for two years.
At the time we first contracted with James, liquor liability coverage was
very hard to get and very expensive. Our 1981 annual proposed premium,
which we accepted, was $18,840. For some reason, this year (1983) several
insurance companies decided to get competitive in this area. I asked
Jerry Coughlin, the City's designated agent for the LMCIT insurance policy,
to obtain another competitive proposal in addition to the one submitted by
our present carrier (James).
He asked for, and received, two quotes and they are as follows:
1. James Agency
(Ideal Mutual Insurance Company) $11,748.00
2. John H. Crowther, Inc.
(Transcontinental Insurance Company)$ 6,185.00
As you can see, they are both considerably cheaper than prior years' proposals.
I recommend that we accept the Crowther proposal. I have attached a resolution,
which, if adopted by the Council, would award the insurance contract for
liquor liability insurance for an estimated annual premium of $6,185.00. I
have also attached a copy of the proposal.

Since the City Council, in 1981, determined that there is a need for the
League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust '(LMCIT) to encourage competition
in the municipal insurance market and the past three years have `proven that
the LMCIT has done so, I intend to recommend that the City retain LCMIT for
its other insurance coverage. I have requested renewal rates and will make
my recommendation prior to the December 11th Council meeting.

RESOLUTION NO.
RESOLUTION DETERMINING TO PROCEED WITH A PROJECT AND
ITS FINANCING UNDER THE MINNESOTA MUNICIPAL INDUSTRIAL`
DEVELOPMENT ACT;. REFERRING THE PROPOSAL TO THE
MINNESOTA ENERGY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
FOR APPROVAL AND AUTHORIZING PREPARATION OF NECESSARY
DOCUMENTS
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brooklyn Center, Minnesota (the City) as follows:
Section 1. Recitals and Findings
1.1. This Council has received a proposal that
the City finance a portion or all of the cost of a
proposed project under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 474
(the Act), consisting of the acquisition of land and the
construction and equipping thereon of a 65,000 square foot
supermarket facility in the City, which will ,include a
bakery, restaurant, gift shop and related facilities (the
Project) by 'Donald Byerly, a Minnesota resident, and /or
Byerly's, Inc., a Minnesota corporation whose stock is
owned, directly or indirectly, by - Donald Byerly
(collectively, the Borrower) The Project is'located at
Shingle Creek Parkway and Summit Drive in the City.
1.2. At a public hearing, duly noticed and held
on , 1983, in accordance with the Act, on the
proposal to undertake and finance the Project, all parties
who appeared at the hearing were given an opportunity to
express their views with respect to the proposal to
undertake and finance the Project. Based on the public
hearing and such other facts and circumstances as this
Council deems relevant, this Council hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows.
(a) ' The welfare of the State of Minnesota
requires active promotion, attraction, encouragement and
development of economically sound :industry and commerce
through governmental acts to prevent, so far as possible,
emergence of blighted lands and areas of chronic
unemployment, and the State of Minnesota has encouraged
local government units to act to prevent such economic
deterioration.
(b) The Project would further the general
purposes contemplated and described in Section 474.01 of
the Act.
(c) The existence of the Project `would add to
the tax base of the City, the County and School District
in which the Project is located and would provide
increased opportunities for employment for residents of
the City and surrounding area.
(d) This Council has been advised by the
Borrower that conventional, commercial financing to pay
the cost of the Project is available only on a limited
basis and at such high costs of borrowing that the
economic feasibility of operating the Project would be
significantly reduced, but that with the aid of municipal
borrowing, and its resulting lower borrowing cost, the
Project is economically more feasible.
(e) This Council has also been advised by the
Borrower that on the basis of its discussions with
potential buyers of'tax- exempt bonds, revenue bonds of the
City (which may be in the form of a commercial development
revenue note or notes) could be issued and sold upon
favorable rates and terms to finance the Project.
(f) The City is authorized by the Act to issue
its revenue bonds to finance capital projects consisting
of properties used and useful in connection with a revenue
producing enterprise, such as that of the Borrower, and
the issuance of the bonds by the City would be a
substantial inducement to the Borrower to acquire,
construct and equip the Project.
Section 2. Approvals and Authorizations
2.1. On the basis of the information given the
-
City_to date, it appears that it would be desirable for
the City to issue its revenue bonds under the provisions
of the Act, in one or more series, to finance the Project
in the estimated total amount of $9,590,000.
2.2. The Council hereby - determines to proceed
with the Project and its financing, and hereby declares
its present intent to have the City issue its revenue
bonds under the Act to finance the Project, subject to the
approval of the Project by the Minnesota Energy and
Economic Development Authority. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, however, the adoption of this resolution shall
not be deemed to establish a legal obligation on the part
of the City or this Council to issue or to' °cause the
issuance of such revenue bonds. All details of such
revenue bond issue and the provisions for payment thereof
shall be subject to the mutual agreement of this Council,
the Borrower and the purchaser or purchasers of the
revenue bonds and such further conditions as the City may
specify, such agreement and specification on the part of
the City to be evidenced by a resolution of this Council
authorizing the issuance of the revenue bonds on the terms
and conditions agreed upon and authorizing the execution
of necessary documents. In all events, it is understood
that the bonds shall not constitute a' charge, lien
or encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of
the City except the revenues pledged to payment of such
revenue bonds, and each bond, when, as and if issued,
shall recite in substance that the bond, includin -g
interest thereon, is payable solely from the revenues
received from the Project and any property pledged to the
payment thereof and shall not constitute a debt of the
City within the meaning of any constitutional, statutory
or charter, limitation.
2.3. The Application to the Minnesota Energy and
Economic Development Authority, with attachments, is
hereby approved, and the Mayor and City Manager are
authorized to execute said documents in behalf of the City.
2.4. If the bonds are issued and sold, the City
will enter into a- lease, sale or loan agreement or similar
agreement satisfying the requirements of the Act (the
Revenue Agreement) with the Borrower. The lease rentals,
installment sale payments, loan payments or other amounts
payable by the Borrower to the City under the Revenue
Agreement shall, be sufficient to pay the principal,
interest and redemption premium, if any, on the bonds as
and when the same shall become due and payable
2.5. All commitments of the City expressed
herein are subject to the condition that within twelve
months from the date of adoption of this resolution the
City and the Borrower shall have ;agreed to mutually
acceptable terms and conditions of the Revenue Agreement,
the revenue bonds and of the other instruments and
proceedings relating to the revenue bonds, and their
issuance and sale.
2.6. If the events set forth herein do not take
place within the time set forth above or any extension
thereof and the revenue bonds are not sold within such
time, this resolution shall expire and be of no further'
force or effect. The Borrower has agreed and it is hereby
determined that any and all direct and indirect costs
incurred by the City in connection with the Project,
whether or not the Project is carried to completion, and
whether, or not approved by the Energy and Economic
Development Authority, and whether or not the City by
resolution authorizes the issuance of the bonds, will be
paid by the Borrower upon request.
Adopted this day of ,`1983.

M EMORANDUM
TO: Gerald G. Splinter, City Manager
FROM: Director of Finance
DATE: December 1, 1983
SUBJECT: .RENEWAL OF HUMBOLDT SQUARE LIQUOR STORE LEASE
Our lease on the Humboldt Square Liquor Store expired on member 30th.
We have been negotiating a renewal with a representative of Coldwell Banker,
lease manager for the owner (Robert J. Foley), for several months " Coldwell
offered a new lease for a period of three to five years, with an increase in
the rental rate. No specific increase was determined since, during the
negotiations, we 'informed them that we would not agree to any new lease which
called for any rental increase.
While negotiations were n progress, o and I decided that since there may
g e 1 P g ess, Y u . Y
be other alternatives available to us in store location and some questions as
to the future of municipal liquor, it would not be- desirable to enter into any
long -term lease at this time. Therefore, at our last meeting with Coldwell,
we offered to extend our current lease, with no changes, for one year.
Yesterday, Coldwell informed me that the owner had accepted our offer.
I have attached a letter from Coldwell which, if signed by the Mayor and City
Manager, will extend our existing lease through November 30, 1984. Please ask
the City Council for authorization to allow the Mayor and City Manager to enter
into the agreement to extend the lease.
I have also prepared a summary of the terms of the existing lease and attached .
it to this memorandum.
