Councilman Ralles left the Council chambers.
James Endler, Walgreen Company senior attorney for governmental affairs,
de�cribed the firm's history in the United States. He said the St. Louis
Park store has been located at the Knollwood Shopping Center since 1955
apd has a lease until the Year 2009. He explained the store has 13,000
square feet of retail area plus an additional 6,000 square feet of non-
retail space; if the license is granted, major remodeling in excess of
$175,000 is planned. Responding to a question from Councilman Backes,
he was unsure if extensive remodeling would occur should the license be
denied.
Councilman Martin believed adequate liquor suppliers exist throughout the
community.
Mr. Endler stated that at the State level, the sale of packaged liquor
in drug stores appears to be favored. Responding to Councilman Elstrom,
he explained patrons would not be able to enter the liquor sales area from
�he drug store.
Councilman Elstrom suggested that license approval could set a precedent
whereby all other drug stores may apply for similar licenses.
Mr. Endler explained that the Walgreen Company is very familiar with
the liquor business, and one of the reasons a license is sought is due
to a change in district manager who has had liquor in his 14 previous
stores. He noted that the Company is the largest liquor retailer in the
United States.

hearing closed.
It was moved by Councilman Meland, seconded by Councilman Elstrom, to

6g. Kimiko's 1980 renewal of licenses - Kimiko's Sauna,
Sauna 4310 West 361f Street.
Ralph Gale, att�rney representing Kimiko's
Sauna, explained that on December 28, 1979, the City Manager advised
the owners the license to operate the business would not be renewed for
1980. Ne said the offense occured over one year in the past, and there
was never an indication to the owners of possible future problems; in
fact, in April, 1979, a new two-year lease for the premises was
executed. He continued there had been no other problems associated with
the business in its 10.5 years in the community.
Councilmen Martin and Meland explained that the Council policy is to not
act upon a matrer until it is disposed of by the Courts. ��
Steve Lange, prosecuting attorney for the criminal charges, recited the
background of the December 20, 1978, arrest. He said the defend$nt was
subsequently sentenced to a breach of'peace charge and fined $50.
Police Cliief Richard Setter explained that as part of the department's
regular inspection procedure, visits are made to each licensee on an
irregular basis, and on the evening in question, the officer ente�ed in
an undercover capacity. Responding to Councilman Meland, he stated the
City's other licensed sauna was inspected on a similar basis.
Mr. Gale explained that although ris. Kelly accepted the reduced charge
offered by Mr. Lange, had slie known her license would be in jeopardy,
she would noC have pleaded guilty to the lessor charge but would have
requested a jury trial. Ne suggested the Council was not in the position
nor equipped to try the case as a jury. He believed that even as
expressed by the City Attorney, the facts were not sufficient cause to
� deprive the licensee o£ a 10.5-year business. He continued that the
� brench of peace ordinance has nothing to do with moral turpitude,•and
if the City believed it had a case, it should h�ve proceeded to try it,
� and if breaeh of peace is gufficient to t�ke away a license, the Kellys
should have been so advised.

P@TITIONS, REQUESTS AND COt�tUNICATIONS
7z. Tawin Request of Sylvia Howard for reimbursement of
Chatges towing charges.
Sylvia t�oward, 2600 Monterey Avenue, sa�d that
on De�ember 27, 1979, while driving on Quentin Avenue at West 27 Street,
she was stopped by a police officer and informed her plates were expired.
The o£ficer gave her a citation and had the car towed. She said she was
five blocks from her h�me, and three hours later the car was retrieved for
$27. She said no State or City law exists which states a car should be
empounded when the �Efense i� driving with expi�ed license plates, and
as a meCter of principle, she requested the City to reimburse the
527.50 tow charge.
Councilm�n Martin explained the City'� liability if the officer had
al�owed tie[ to drive withouC correct plates. Ne continued that if the
car wae 1elt in place and vandalized, the owner could state it was the
City's f:ault. He s�id the police department has certain policies and
guidelines under which it operates to protect citizens and also the City
from poRaible civil lawsuits resulting from property damage.
Councilman f�anks noted the law states that vehicles cannot be operated
in the 5tnte of MinneRota unless properly licensed. He said he would not
support ection wherehy the citizens of St. Louis Park must pay for the
towinq when the platee had been expired Eor seven months.

in order to not p��Xr_haee insurance. }ie asked Ms. Howard how she•would
feel f.f sl►e beer�me involved in an accident with a person having no
in�urAnce. . . ..

City Council minutes, January 7, 1980
Mr. Howard said the car belonged to him. He explained Chat upon checking
with the State Highway DeparCment, the City Attorney and a former judge,
he was told there was no Iaw which required vehicles to be empounded
and other persons received citations for the offense. He explained he
had mistakenly bought one license tag instead of two.
Councilman Elstrom said the law states vehicles must display current
tabs and the policy of enforcement varies with each municipality.
There was no action on the matter.

struct the road around the church remained.

up any park land.
�
Ci[y Council minutes, January 7, 1980

houses in the area appeared to encroach more upon the pond than the

of church property for 11,000 square �eet of City property.
