349.165 PREMISES PERMITS.
    Subdivision 1. Premises permit required; application. A licensed organization may not
conduct lawful gambling at any site unless it has first obtained from the board a premises permit
for the site. The board shall prescribe a form for permit applications, and each application
for a permit must be submitted on a separate form. The premises permit issued by the board
runs concurrently with the license of the organization unless the premises permit is suspended,
revoked, or voluntarily terminated by the organization. The board may by rule limit the number of
premises permits that may be issued to an organization.
    Subd. 2. Contents of application. An application for a premises permit must contain:
(1) the name and address of the applying organization;
(2) a description of the site for which the permit is sought, including its address and, where
applicable, its placement within another premises or establishment;
(3) if the site is leased, the name and address of the lessor and information about the lease the
board requires, including all rents and other charges for the use of the site; and
(4) other information the board deems necessary to carry out its purposes.
An organization holding a premises permit must notify the board in writing within ten days
whenever any material change is made in the above information.
    Subd. 3. Fees. (a) The board may issue premises permits to organizations licensed under
section 349.16, subdivision 6. The annual fee for each premises permit is $150.
(b) In addition to the annual fee for a premises permit, an organization must pay a monthly
regulatory fee of 0.1 percent of the organization's gross receipts from lawful gambling conducted
at that site. The fee must be reported and paid on a monthly basis in a format as determined
by the commissioner of revenue, and remitted to the commissioner of revenue along with the
organization's monthly tax return for that premises. All premises permit fees received by the
commissioner of revenue under this subdivision must be deposited in the lawful gambling
regulation account in the special revenue fund according to section 349.151. Failure to pay the
monthly premises permit fees in a timely manner may result in disciplinary action by the board.
    Subd. 4. Identification of premises. No organization may seek or accept assistance from a
manufacturer or distributor, or a representative, agent, affiliate, or employee of a manufacturer or
distributor, in identifying potential locations for gambling conducted by the organization.
