Council discussed whether or not they should <br />delay the project to obtain the special vandalism proof windows, <br />and if it might be possible to postpone the dedication scheduled <br />for July 26, 1990. <br />AMM REQUEST FOR INCREASED DUES TO HIRE ADDITIONAL STAFF <br />DEFERRRED TO 7/25/90 MEETING <br />Council discussed a letter from the Association of Metropolitan <br />• Municipalites requesting that the City consider supporting the <br />hiring of an additional staff person which would increase dues <br />20 to 25~. The purpose of the additional staffing would be to <br />provide more effective lobbying at the Legislature. Following <br />the discussion Council agreed more information was needed in <br />order to make a decision, and directed staff to arrange for the <br />AMM Staff to make a presentation at the July 25th meeting. <br />INVITATION TO JOIN THE SUBURBAN RATE AUTHORITY DEFERRED TO <br />7/25/90 <br />The invitation to join the SRA, an organization which monitors <br />rate matters of suburban utilities, was deferred. A <br />Councilmember will attend the SRA meeting on July 17th and <br />report back at the July 25th Meeting. <br />CITY TO PARTICIPATE IN GUINNESS WORLD RECORD "GET WELL CARD" <br />PROJECT <br />Wiessner presented a letter requesting the City consider <br />participating in a project to help a seven year old boy who has <br />a brain tumor, to achieve his goal to have an entry in the <br />GUINNESS BOOK OF RECORDS for the largest number of "Get Well <br />Cards" ever received by an individual. Council agreed it was a <br />worthwhile project and approved a proposed list of <br />organizations/businesses to be contacted asking that they also <br />participate. Council then adopted Resolution R-90-28 which will <br />be sent to Craig Shergold at his home in England. Cable TV <br />viewers were also urged to send cards. <br />
