A copy of their draft is included in the council's letter. The council <br /> 22 has a goal relating to enhancement of economic development that includes holding a <br /> 23 meeting with EDAC to discuss the council's economic development goals, EDAC's role <br /> `- 24 in meeting those objectives and establishing some communications procedures, etc. <br /> 25 EDAC is very interested in proceeding with such a joint meeting. <br /> 26 <br /> 27 The council was informed that the next regular meeting of EDAC is July 16, 2009, at <br /> 28 7:00 a.m. All council members present agreed to attend that meeting. It would also be <br /> 29 helpful to share the results of the recent value setting sessions with the EDAC group. <br /> 30 <br /> 31 CHARTER COMMISSION AUDIT -Attorney Michael Doherty presented the results <br /> 32 of the audit conducted on the practices of the Lino Lakes Charter Commission. He noted <br /> 33 that the council received a memorandum that was presented to the city on April 6, 2009 <br /> 34 outlining the investigation results as well as a summary of the attorney opinions contained <br /> 35 in the report. The audit was started as an investigation on the expenditure of public <br /> 36 dollars and whether or not the Charter Commission had overextended its authority in that <br /> 37 area. Under state law, charter commissions have limited powers that are enumerated in <br /> 38 Chapter 410 of the Minnesota Statutes and they have no power past that. Their focus is <br /> 39 to be limited to the charter itself and whether it should be amended. The city has an <br /> 40 obligation under state law to pay up to $1,500 per year for allowed commission <br /> 41 expenditures; additional reasonable expenses can be authorized by the council but not <br /> 42 beyond allowed expenditures. In an attempt to gather information about how funds were <br /> 43 expended by the commission, Mr. Doherty asked the commission for public data related <br /> 44 to communication on the subject. He received a response from their attorney indicating <br /> 45 that the data would not be made available and that any data the commission has is <br /> 1 <br />
