CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION February 22, 2016 <br />APPROVED <br />46 Council Member Manthey asked if there is any reason why the council shouldn't support <br />47 this resolution. Mayor Reinert explained that it comes down to power and one political <br />48 party versus another and he doesn't think calling for a change is overreaching. <br />49 <br />50 Council Member Kusterman explained the history of the Metropolitan Council. It started <br />51 as a group to deal with coordinating the sewer system and it grew to cover many things <br />52 and it has outgrown its role. He asked what will happen if the resolution is passed? <br />53 <br />54 Mayor Reinert said that it brings the matter forward but a process change would have to <br />55 be discussed, legislation passed and then signed by the governor. <br />56 <br />57 Item 3B/3C, Resolution No. 1640, Concurring in the Issuance of G.O. Bonds (by the <br />58 City of Circle Pines) and Resolution No. 16-11, Amending the JPA for North Metro <br />59 Telecommunications Commission to Issue Bonds — Administrator Karlson explained that <br />60 the council is presented with two resolutions that involve the issuance of bonds to finance <br />61 new equipment for the cable commission. The proposal is to replace all equipment with <br />62 updated high definition equipment. This is possible because the commission has paid all <br />63 of its debt on their facility so they feel it is a good time. The cost would be in the range <br />64 of $2 million and the debt would be issued as G.O. bonds through the City of Circle <br />65 Pines. If the bonding was not issued through a city, it would be a revenue bond and the <br />66 cost would be higher; the city of Circle Pines offered to issue the bonds. The revenue to <br />67 pay for the bonds comes from franchise fees. The cost savings through use of G.O. <br />68 bonds is approximately $278,000. The other element of the action involves approving <br />69 an amendment to the joint powers agreement with the cable commission that would <br />70 update language and add authority for bonding with approval of member cities. <br />71 <br />72 Mayor Reinert indicated that he feels more time is needed to review this matter. The <br />73 council will discuss the matter at the council meeting. <br />74 <br />75 Added Item 4A, Approval to hire Building/Fire Inspector — Chief Swenson asked the <br />76 council to add this item to the regular agenda. The council concurred. <br />77 <br />78 The meeting was adjourned at 6:25 p.m. <br />79 <br />80 These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting held on <br />81 March 14, 2016. <br />82 <br />83 <br />86 u 1 e Bartell, City lerk <br />87 <br />�a <br />
