(Cont'd) Council1nember Malone conrrnented that the City of Shoreview . requires 100 percent of net profits be expended in the trade area.

Paul Turners may have difficulty meeting the requirement since they are a school and are located in st. Paul. The Mayor explained the higher percentage may drive revenue sources out of the city.

He favored inclusion of the restriction at the reduoed percentage to allCM the charities to continue to operate in the city and generate donations for local organizations. council1nember Mahowald favored reduction to 50 percent; questioned if the "trade area" could be expanded to include Ran1sey County.
