Kandis Hanson reported that the Fire Chief and Fire Inspector attended a meeting with
a representative from the American Legion regarding their plans to construct an addition
to their building to accommodate smoking, and indicated that they would also like to
amend their liquor license to include this addition, plus the deck that they have
constructed. They will have plans drawn up and present them for suggestions on fire
exits, etc.
Osmek expressed concern over security on the patio, and suggested that the Legion
come back with a plan showing another exit so that entry and exit wouldn't be available
directly from the deck.
John Dean also suggested that they contact someone for clear interpretation of the
Hennepin County smoking ban ordinance before they make an addition onto the
building for the intended purpose of supplying a place for smokers. No action taken at
this time.
