Subject: RE:Stillwater Crossings - Sodies Cigar Expansion
Hi Julie,
I've taken a quick look at the application and from a legal perspective and in a preliminary review, I'd like a little more
formality as to the ownership noted on the application. It doesn't have an owner's representative name, and in looking
at the secretary of state's website, "Sodie's Cigar" is not even a legitimate legal entity. Instead I had to hunt around and
figure out that it looks like Sodie's Cigar& Pipe is an assumed business name and the actual ownership is:
Luke Sodergren,CEO (the son)
LRS Enterprises, Inc.
1828 Interlachen Alcove
Woodbury, MN 55125
• This is the legal entity that appears to own the shop—it was the holder of the assumed business name "Sodie's
Cigar& Pipe"which was registerd several years ago but has since expired due to their failure to maintain the
registration
• Luke is the named CEO and registered agent of this entity.
• Luke's home address in Woodbury is the "registered office"of LRS Enterprises, Inc.
Scott Sodergren (the father)
Express Employment Professionals
910 Main Street,Suit 101
Red Wing, MN 55066
Scott appears to be a co-owner of the business,but also is the primary owner and operator of his own separate
business down in Redwing called Express Employment Professionals. His Redwing office address serves as the
"corporate headquarters and principal executive office"for LRS Enterprises, Inc., however.
Assuming I'm correct about this ownership structure, I'd like these names and LRS Enterprises, Inc. noted on the
application and other materials going forward as the proper"owner"at issue with this application.
