o Wnat is the background for the changing of the ordinance?
On October 24, 1989 an ordinance which allowed bingo halls by
conditional use permit in the B-3 district became effective.
At the January 30, 1990 zoning and Planning Commission meeting the
Commission heard and approved a request from the Jaycees for a Bingo
Hall at 1115 East Excelsior Avemle. The Jaycees withdrew their
reque,st before the next council meeting.
On Maya, 1990 an ordinance establishing a moratorium on bingo halls
as a primary use became effective. The moratorium expired on
september 4, 1990, but was extended to December 31, 1990.
At the ~ay city Council workshop a memo was presented from staff of
possible land use issues dealing with bingo as a primary use. The
city council directed staff to research those issues and hold a public
heax'inq at the Zoning and planning commission level.
. At. the June City Council workshop a memo was presentsd to the city
, Council on the three cities that currently hav~ a bingo operation as a
primary use. The issues outlined by others dealt with land use
issues.
A public hearing was held on June 26 at the zoning and Planning
commission meeting. The Commission discussed the land use issues of
binqo and indicated that the existing ordinance allowing bingo should
not be chang-ed. . ,:
At t.he July 31 Zoning and Pla.nning meeting the discussion focused on .,
issues of allowing Bingo in the B-2 district. Mr. Woodrich made a
motion, to allow bingo in the B-2 district in addition to the B-3"
district. The motion was second.ed by Mr. Winship. The vote was 3-3" "
Because of the tie vote: no fOL~al action was taken by the Planning
Commission on pr.oviding a recommendation to the City Council.

issue of bingo as a prlmary use. At this meeting t.he council heard
input from the audienoa.

0 Will bingo still be allowed in Hopkins?
Bingo as a secondary use will still be allowed in Hopkins. Before
bingo as a primary use was proposed, several organizations held bingo
ses$ians at ~neir establishments one or two nights a week. This bingo
continued during the moratorium and will continue if the ordinance is
amended to not have bingo as a primary use.
Alternatives.

to not allow bingo as a primary use in the B-3 district.
Approval of the resolution will recommend that bingo is
removed as a primary use in the B-3 district.
2~ Deny the resolution recommending approval of the ordinance to
not allow bingo as a primary use in the B-3 district. By
recommending denial of the resolution bingo will be allowed as
a primary use in the B-3 district,
.. 3. Continue for further information. If the Commission feels
further information is needed, the item should be continued.
