SUBJ: Set Work Session Dates
• On Sale Liquor at Hotels: Country Suites has requested that they be able to sell on -sale
liquor to guests of the hotel and the public without having a restaurant. They would consider
having hors d'oeuvres available. Roger Knutson will be present Monday evening to present
pros and cons of the proposal with the idea that the council would then make a decision as to
whether this should be a future regular agenda item or a work session item; and
• Population/Growth Trends: Councilman Berquist had talked with Kate in regards to a
potential work session looking at growth trends of the Twin Cities. The conversation was
prompted by the report prepared by the Metropolitan Council on this same subject. I will
assume that Steve will elaborate further Monday evening.:;

' 11. The Lounge, Banquet and Meeting Room building ill have Water Sanitary Sewer
g � _
Electrical, Natural Gas and Fire suppression systems separate and independent of the
' Hotel Building and will continue to be a separate tax parcel.
' 12. Cross easements will be provided for parking and common area maintenance along the
lines previously approved for a restaurant operation, if appropriate.
' The intent of this effort, as we have discussed, is to create an ordinance amendment,
acceptable to the city and in compliance with state law, that would allow the insurance of a
license to a first class facility compatible in design of quality to the expanded hotel.
' The amendment could be limited to facilities adjacent or connected to Hotels with 120
rooms or more thereby presumably giving the city a large measure of control on the
number of licenses that might be requested.
This concept was used by the city of Fargo, ND to accommodate the Country Suites in
' that city.
I would be pleased to meet with you at your earliest conveniance to answer any questions
' and get the formal application process underway, Best Regards.
Sincerely,
