Brown <br />Executive Director <br />Mr. Joseph G. Chlebeck, Clerk <br />City of Little Canada <br />515 E. Little Canada Road <br />Little Canada, Minnesota 55117 <br />Dear Mr. Chlebeck: <br />Suite 316 Court House, St. Paul, Minnesota 55102 <br />Phone (612) 298-4145 <br />October 20, 1982 <br />Minnesota Laws of 1982, Chapter 509 as enacted by the State Legislature, made some <br />changes in the process to be used for appointment of managers to watershed district <br />boards. Previously, managers have been appointed through Ramsey County's open <br />appointments process in which any citizen residing within the affected watershed <br />district could submit an application to the County Clerk. The County Board Chairman <br />then recommended an appointee from those applicants and sent his /her name to the full <br />Board for appointment. <br />The new law (pertinent excerpt enclosed) provides that county commissioners must <br />select watershed district managers from a list of nominees "submitted jointly or <br />severally," by the municipalities that are wholelyor partially in the watershed <br />district. Such a list must be submitted to the county at least sixty days prior to <br />the expiration of the term of office of a manager. If no list is submitted, the <br />County Board will then proceed to appoint a manager through its open appointments <br />process. <br />This letter is to advise you that the term of Christopher P. Drake, presently a <br />member of the Ramsey- Washington Metro Watershed District Board of Managers, will <br />expire on February 23, 1983. Mr. Drake is a resident of Little Canada. If the six <br />affected municipalities (Little Canada, Maplewood, North St. Paul, St. Paul, Vadnais <br />Heights, and White Bear Lake) wish to submit a list of nominees for consideration by <br />the County Board, your joint or separate lists must be sent to me prior to December <br />25, 1982. (Mr. Drake's name may be submitted as a nominee for reappointment.) The <br />County Board is then required to act upon an appointment by January 24, 1983. <br />Please let me know if you have any questions about this appointment process. <br />Si cerely, <br />Harry E/ Marshall <br />Chief Clerk - County Board <br />cc: C. Drake <br />R. Lake <br />M. Timmons <br />HEM /dw <br />R. Marshall <br />Commissioner Schaber <br />Commissioner Norgard <br />
