IMr. Marier moved to appoint Andy Neal as alternate citizen represen- tative. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mr. Reinert voting no. COUNCIL MEETING March 10, 1986 Page Three Mayor Benson said some basic guidelines have been set for this Committee. Mr. Schumacher has not yet found a utility representative, but will be presenting more information to the Committee and will let the Committee interview the candidates and make a recommendation to the Council. Mr. Marier has received a request from Mr. Gibas to hold the Joint Committee Negotiating Meetings in the new Anoka County Library: Mayor Benson said he had no problem with this. Mr. Schumacher has received a letter from Mr. Gibas and asked if Lino Lakes will be meeting with the Circle Pines Gas Utilities Comm- ission or with their negotiating team. Mr. Marier said the first meeting may be with the Circle Pines Gas Commission because Mr. Gibas feels the Commission has the direct responsibility for the utility and the Circle Pines' Council is secondary. He felt the Circle Pines' negotiating Committee should be there as well. IMayor Benson felt both the Commission and the Utility Negotiation Committee should be at this first meeting. Mayor Benson asked that a letter be sent to the Circle Pines' City Council with a copy to the Utility Commission letting them know Lino Lakes is prepared to set the date for the initial meeting. Mr. Marier said there is a problem in getting a committment to pro- vide gas to the Rice Lake Estates area. Mayor Benson said they have been told twice that they are to serve this area. Mr. Marier said they have a question regarding capital outlay and are concerned with running their lines into Lino Lakes. Mr. Marier said he has informed Mr. Gibas that the Circle Pines' Gas Commission has some responsibility to serve that area once the franchise has been gran- ted and Lino Lakes has done that twice.

IMr. Reinert said this recommendation for a Review Board appears to be a lighter approach than a Commission. He felt this may be the way to go to see what service is obtained from it. He personally saw nothing wrong with citizens playing a review role. Mr. Schu- macher said the way Ms. Apitz has it laid out it would be a low key
