bond counsel and financial advisors present to address the implications of the existing <br />charter provisions and any amendments being considered. It was suggested that the <br />initial step in this process should be a 2-3 hour joint Charter Commission — Council <br />workshop session with presentations from the city's bond counsel and financial advisors <br />in order for everyone to have a common understanding of both the statutory and charter <br />requirements and processes for public improvements, prior to engaging in discussions <br />related to changing the charter. <br />It was the consensus of the Council to not have Mr. Grochala and Mr. Studenski attend <br />the January 1 I Charter Commission meeting for the above stated reasons, but have staff <br />propose a charter review process to the Council that could be used by the Charter <br />Commission and Council to accomplish the intent of Chairperson Warren's memo. <br />It should be noted that the subsequently received correspondence entitled "Road <br />Reconstruction and Neighborhood Projects" was not part of the Council's discussion as it <br />was received after the work session had concluded. I would suggest that this document <br />reinforces the need for the workshop previously discussed as there are statutes which are <br />applicable to some of concepts included in this document. <br />Attachments: <br />1.
