PURPOSE/ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the application from Ducks Unlimited Frozen North Chapter 271 for a Premises Permit for gambling activity to be conducted at Gopher Hills Golf Course in Douglas Township.
SUMMARY
Gambling Licenses are governed by the Minnesota Gambling Control Board. Nonprofit organizations may conduct raffles, bingo and other forms of lawful gambling according to Minnesota Law. Lawful gambling consists of the operation, conduct or sale of bingo, raffles, paddle wheels, tip-boards and pull-tabs. A licensed organization may not conduct lawful gambling at any site unless it has first obtained a premises permit for the site. Before approving a premises permit, the Minnesota Gambling Control Board requires County approval of an application when the gambling premises are located in a township. An application was received from Ducks Unlimited Frozen North Chapter 271 (Minnesota Gambling License 92380) for a premises permit to sell pull-tabs at Gopher Hills Golf Course in Douglas Township. Douglas Township approved the premises permit application at their meeting on May 2, 2022.
