COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 24, 1996 Council Lyden said that he reviewed the fence ordinance and found that the ordinance requires chain length fences to have round posts and braces. He asked if the City Council approved a non -conforming fence. No answer was provided. Council Meetings - Council Member Neal noted that many of the Council meetings were very long. He suggested that the City Council hold four (4) meetings per month or start the meetings earlier for the next four (4) months or until all business is completed. Council Member Kuether said that she cannot commit to four (4) meetings a month but was committed to extra meetings when they are necessary. It as noted that if the Council held four (4) meetings a month, staff may not be able to keep up with that schedule. Special meetings were suggested if there is a priority issue for the City Council or if there are some additional policies that need additional discussion. Another suggestion was to place a time limit on each item. Mayor Landers proposed leaving this to the discretion of Mr. Schumacher. He also suggested that if it looks like the agenda is going to be unusually long, a special meeting should be called. Council Member Lyden asked that all items that are placed on the Monday's regular meeting agenda be discussed at the work session prior to that meeting. Council decided to leave this matter to the discretion of the City Administrator. Council Member Kuether moved to adjourn at 9:50 p.m. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Aye. These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at a regular meeting held on March 22, 1999. Anders M y derson, Clerk -Treasurer Mari n G. PAGE 28
