TO: Mayor and City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Lori Hensen, Deputy City Clerk
DATE: 12/17/2013
SUBJECT: 2014 Pawnshop Business License Renewals (F)
Action Sought
Approve the applications and grant Pawnbroker Licenses for 2014
Background
On April 19, 1994, the City Council adopted an ordinance requiring the licensing of
pawnbrokers, precious metal dealers, secondhand dealers, pawnshops, and their employees. The
City received applications from two pawnshops and their employees and licenses were issued. It
is appropriate at this time that the licenses are renewed for 2014.
Both DRM LLC of Shakopee, dba Excel Pawn& Jewelry and PawnXchange LLC have applied
for renewal of their licenses. The applications are in order. I have checked with the Police
Department and they advise that they are unaware of any reason that the licenses should not be
renewed.
The Deputy City Clerk will be issuing the pawnshop employee licenses to the qualifying
applicants.
Recommendation
1. Approve the application and grant a Pawnshop License to DRM LLC of Shakopee, dba
Excel Pawn& Jewelry, 450 West First Avenue.
2. Approve the application and grant a Pawnbroker, Precious Metal Dealer and Secondhand
Dealer's license to Mark Pearson, DRM LLC of Shakopee, dba Excel Pawn& Jewelry, 450
West First Avenue.
3. Approve the application and grant a Pawnshop License to PawnXchange LLC, 1133
Canterbury Road.
