CIT -0F <br /> INRKES <br /> Memorandum <br /> Date: January 6, 2006 <br /> To: Charter Commission <br /> From: Gordon Heitke <br /> Re: Petition for Charter Amendment <br /> The City Council received a petition to not allow City Council Members (including the <br /> Mayor) to also be members of the Lino Lakes Charter Commission at its September 26, <br /> 2005 meeting. A question was raised by Councilmember Carlson as to whether the <br /> petition followed all the requirements for petitions set forth in the charter. A legal <br /> opinion was sought to address that question. (See attached opinion.) <br /> Due to other agenda issues and since there was no immediate need to consider the <br /> petition request; consideration of the petition was deferred for a future time. The person <br /> submitting the petition recently requested that the petition be discussed at the January 18, <br /> 2006 council work session. This issue has been placed on the tentative agenda for that <br /> meeting. <br />
