CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION July 28, 2014 <br />APPROVED <br />1 CITY OF LINO LAKES <br />2 MINUTES <br />3 <br />4 DATE : July 28, 2014 <br />5 TIME STARTED : 5:30 p.m. <br />6 TIME ENDED : 6:25 p.m. <br />7 MEMBERS PRESENT : Council Member Stoesz, O'Donnell, <br />8 Rafferty, Roeser and Mayor Reinert <br />9 MEMBERS ABSENT : None <br />10 <br />11 <br />12 Staff members present: City Administrator Jeff Karlson; Community Development <br />13 Director Michael Grochala; City Planner Katie Larsen; Public Safety Director John <br />14 Swenson; Public Services Director Rick DeGardner; City Clerk Julie Bartell <br />15 <br />16 Review Regular Council Meeting Agenda of July 28, 2014. <br />17 <br />18 1D) Resolution No. 14 -79, Supporting The Development of the Chain of Lakes <br />19 Otter Lake Regional Trail — Public Services Director DeGardner reviewed the request. <br />20 He explained that the project is really in an initial stage at this point and Anoka County, <br />21 its sponsor, would like to make impacted jurisdictions aware. He is comfortable that the <br />22 city can offer the support of this resolution. Brian Bourassa, WSB and Associates, added <br />23 that moving a project to designation is a good way to keep it on funding lists. <br />24 <br />25 Council Member Roeser added that he'd like to see the Bald Eagle Trail connected to <br />26 new Park and Ride at 35E and Main Street. Mr. DeGardner said getting a trail extension <br />27 such as that is really a matter of money — if the city can bring funding to the table, that's <br />28 the way to get a project rolling. That particular trail is not a regional trail head so it <br />29 makes a connectivity project a little more difficult. <br />30 <br />31 3A) Charter Commission Request for Additional Legal Expenditures- Administrator <br />32 Karlson noted that the Charter Commission is in the process of reviewing two charter <br />33 amendments that were forwarded by the City Council. The council authorized an <br />34 additional $600 above their $1500 annual budget on that work but the Commission feels <br />35 they need an additional $3,400 for legal assistance. They have had one special meeting <br />36 and another is planned this week. <br />37 <br />38 Mayor Reinert said he's concerned that there isn't clarity on what the extra funds would <br />39 be used for. The request for $600 was clear and reasonable. Council Member Roeser <br />40 expressed concern that the Commission has misused funding in the past. Council <br />41 Member Kusteiman suggested that the Commission should provide a work plan so the <br />42 council can understand exactly how additional funds would be used; that would lend to a <br />43 better discussion about an additional appropriation. Mayor Reinert noted the new <br />44 members and leadership and that he remains hopeful that less politics will prevail. <br />45 <br />1 <br />
