<br />WS – Item #2 <br /> <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item No. 2 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Date: June 24, 2013 <br /> <br />To: City Council <br /> <br />From: Julie Bartell <br /> <br />Re: Local Board of Appeal Training <br /> <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />Under Minnesota Statute, each Local Board of Appeal and Equalization (LBA E) must <br />have at least one training certified member p resent at each meeting of the LB AE. A city <br />or town that does not comply with this requirement is deemed to have transferred its <br />LBAE powers to the county. <br /> <br />Council Member Dave Roeser has served as the C ity’s trained LBAE member for the <br />past four years however his training certification expires in November of 2013. <br />Therefore, if the council wishes to retain the local appeal process, at least one member <br />must be trained prior to April 2014. Note that th e county does recommend that more <br />than one member be trained to cover unforeseen circumstances. <br /> <br />Requested Council Direction <br /> <br />Training sessions are offered in each county during the summer and fall months. The <br />training session s for Anoka and Washington Co unty are highlighted. Staff would like to <br />hear from council members who are interested so that training arrangements can be made. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />2013 Board of Appeal and Equalization Training Courses
