WS — Item 2 <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item 2 <br />Date: Council Work Session, July 2, 2007 <br />To: City Council <br />From: Gordon Heitke <br />Re: Citizen's Task Force to Review Charter Provisions Pertaining to <br />Local Improvements Report <br />Background <br />On February 12, 2007, the Lino Lakes City Council established a citizen's task force for <br />the purpose of studying the city charter provisions related to road reconstruction <br />improvements and report back to the City Council and the Lino Lakes Charter <br />Commission. The formation of the citizen's task force was prompted by public opinion <br />expressed through the recent community -wide survey and a community visioning <br />process. The 2030 Vision Plan recommended that a citizen -led task force be organized to <br />identify options for a change to the charter. The City Council established a task force <br />comprised of interested citizens from the randomly selected 2030 visioning group <br />membership. <br />The Citizen's Task Force to Review Charter Provisions Pertaining to Local <br />Improvements has conducted study sessions, joint meetings and a public forum to gather <br />information used in the preparation of this report. The Task Force will be initially <br />presenting their report to the City Council at the July 2, 2007 work session and will <br />provide a formal presentation at the July 9, 2007 regular council meeting. <br />Requested Council Direction <br />Staff is not seeking any council direction. <br />Attachment <br />It is anticipated that the Task Force will have the report completed for distribution with <br />the Weekly Report. <br />1 <br />
