Memorandum <br />To: Environmental Board Members <br />From: Andy Nelson, Environmental Coordinator <br />Date: August 20, 2020 <br />Re: Meeting Attendance and Quorum <br />City Code section 217.02 (1) states that the board shall operate in accordance with <br />Chapter 210. City Code section 210.04 states that 51% of any commission shall <br />constitute a quorum for conducting business. Generally, the Environmental Board has 7 <br />members so a quorum would be 4. However, quorum consists of appointed positions, so <br />if only 5 are currently appointed then a quorum would be 3. In practice, given that the <br />board is advisory, we continued to hold the meeting, even if a quorum is not present. <br />Approval of board minutes are postponed, but any discussion items are typically <br />reviewed. Additionally, minutes can be voted on by all present regardless of whether <br />they attended the meeting in question (Robert's Rules of Order). <br />600 Town Center Parkway, Lino Lakes, MN 55014 <br />Phone: 651-982-2400 ∙ Fax: 651-982-2499
