Marilyn Anderson, Deputy Clerk <br />Pate. Four <br />June 8, 1979 <br />I would add one word of caution. Because of the recent open meeting <br />cases, and that is that if there are special meetings held,every ef- <br />fort should be made to post a notice of the meeting and to contact the <br />newspapers that are disseminated in the City, and even to contact <br />radio stations. One step further would be to notify anyone who may be <br />particularly interested in any matters that may be discussed at any <br />special meeting. <br />As to Rule 25, I recommend no change. <br />As to Rule 26, I recommend no change, but would add that Minnesota <br />Statutes do allow the deputy clerk, who has been appointed by the <br />clerk, to act in place of the clerk, the clerk, in such instance, <br />being responsible for the actions of the deputy clerk. <br />The final comment on Ordinance 20 would be to raise the question <br />of whether or not the City Council wishes to expand the provisions <br />of Ordinance No. 20 so that they will govern the conduct of all <br />meetings of all commissions and subdivisions of the City Council. <br />Of course, all meetings of the Council and of all commissions and <br />subdivisions must comply with the open meeting law of the State of <br />Minnesota, at all times. However, as now drafted, the provisions <br />of Ordinance No. 20 do not apply to the commissions and subdivisions <br />of the City,and apply only to the City Council. <br />If the above does not answer your questions, please contact me, and <br />I shall attempt to answer any further questions. <br />Yours very truly, <br />:% K-tiidc ,L,( <br />Landol J.
