He <br />believes that somehow, through the course of the process, he has lost 1.5 acres of <br />property. He again urges the council to change the escrow system; it would be <br />appropriate for the city to put a price on things in advance. <br />The council directed staff to ensure that there is information available at the front of the <br />process so there can be clear understanding and a good faith estimate of the costs <br />involved. Staff should also investigate Mr. DeHaven's concern that he has lost acreage. <br />Regarding Item 1B (Resolution No. 09 -18, Amending the 2009 General Operating <br />Budget), Administration Director Tesch noted that the resolution includes the 2009 <br />budget reductions worked out by the directors and agreed upon by the council at their <br />recent special work session. Mr. Tesch added that he and the Finance Officer have met <br />on the matter of a facilitator for strategic planning (for budgeting beyond 2009) and have <br />a recommendation. The mayor requested that Mr. Tesch forward information to the <br />council via email. <br />Regarding Item 3B (Resolution No. 09 -19, Opposing expansion of the Anoka County - <br />Blaine Airport), the council concurred on a language change within the fourth whereas <br />clause. Since it would be limiting to identify only the east -west runway, the resolution <br />should be amended to delete "of the east - west" and "a" inserted in lieu thereof. A motion <br />to amend the resolution accordingly will be made at the council meeting. The mayor <br />announced that he would be voting "no" on the resolution. <br />CITY ADMINISTRATOR POSITION <br />
