the Tom Thumb store to house a 2500 sq ft addition.
Robert Gabbe, attorney, addressed the meeting concerning the
"Off Sale" Liquor License. He stated that in most instances of this
type, the first application received was considered first.
Motion by Floyd Roden to issue only one "Off Sale" Liquor License
for the commercial area known as the 6th addition of Mississippi Shores
(N.W. corner of the junction of Co. #39 and State Highway 42). Seconded
by Douglas Lindenfelser, passed unanimously.
Motion by William Schulz to approve the application of Warren
Phillips for an "Off .Sale" Liquore License due to the fact that he
had conducted a business in that area for the past three years (Tom
Thumb store). The license is subject to the review and approval of
the Otsego Planning Commission.
Motion by Douglas Lindenfelser to approve the application of
M.C. Liquor (Duane Lindenfelser and Bruce Gagnlius) for an "Off Sale"
Liquor License providing it is located in an area other than the 6th
Addition of Mississippi Shores, site subject to the approval of the
Town Board and the Otsego Planning Commission. Seconded by Floyd Roden
passed unanimously.
The Town Board went on record as being opposed to changing the
Wright County Ordinance to allow more, than one employee for a home
extended business. In their opinion, business with more than one
hired employee should be located in an area zoned commercial.
Ingall Roskaft appeared before the Board to discuss the discharge
and use of firearms ordinance put in effect by the City of Elk River.
Elk River officals felt that to control the hunting along the Missis-
sippi, Otsego would also have to pass an ordinance. Mr. Roskaft sug-
gested having the D.N.R. designate the Mississippi River a migratory
waterfowl sanctuary from the mouth of the Elk River to where the Crow
River enters the Mississippi River. Hunting would be banned and the
D.N.R would police it. No action was taken by the Board on the sug-
gestion at the time.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.
