WS — Item #1 <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item No. 1 <br />Date: August 4, 2014 <br />To: City Council <br />From: Jeff Karlson <br />Re: Citizen Petition Requiring Voter Approval to Withdraw from CFD <br />Background <br />On July 29th City Clerk Julie Bartell received a petition signed by more than 800 Lino <br />Lakes residents that would add an ordinance to the City Code requiring voter approval for <br />withdrawal from the Centennial Fire District. This action was taken in accordance with <br />Chapter Five of the City Charter, which allows voters to initiate and adopt ordinances, to <br />rescind ordinances adopted by the Council, and to recall elected public officials by <br />election of the people. <br />At least five percent of registered voters are needed on a petition for placement on the <br />next scheduled election, provided it meets the required timelines. <br />Julie Bartell is in the process of examining the petition and validating the signatures to <br />determine the sufficiency of the petition. Based on the number of registered voters <br />during the last election, at least 601 signatures must be valid. Julie has 10 days to file a <br />report as to the sufficiency of the petition. <br />City Attorney Joe Langel is preparing a report and will be present at the August 4th work <br />session to review what the Council's options are. <br />Requested Council Direction <br />The Council will be considering its options at the August 11 meeting. <br />Attachments <br />None <br />
