CITY CLERK REPORT <br />TO LINO LAKES CHARTER COMMISSION <br />Date: January 14, 2010 <br />To: Lino Lakes Charter Commission <br />From: Julie Bartell, City Clerk <br />Re: Data on appointed officials <br />I would like to make Charter Commission members aware of new regulations at the State <br />level regarding contact information on public board and commission members. <br />Minnesota State Statutes, Section 13.601 (attached), was recently amended by the <br />Legislature. This section deals with elected and appointed officials and specifically <br />identifies the public or private nature of data maintained by the city on applicants and <br />appointees. <br />The State is now requiring that once an individual is appointed to a public body, their <br />residential address is public and they should designate either a telephone number or <br />electronic mail address (or both) at which they can be reached. <br />As the Charter Commission convenes for its first meeting of the year, the roster for the <br />group is updated. As part of this, the group may want members to indicate either a phone <br />number or e-mail address that will be public. The contact information would then be <br />available if it is requested. <br />1 <br />
