MINUTES MARCH 18, 1998 <br />3. Discussion of Meeting Posting, Marilyn Anderson <br />Meetings set by City Code are not posted or advertised. The dates are <br />included in the Citizens Guide and other publications. Special meetings are <br />posted on the outside door of the city hall and if set far enough in advance, <br />they are advertised in the Quad Press. <br />4 Selection of Date to Follow-up Council Goal Setting, Dave Pecchia <br />Saturday, May 9, 1998, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. was scheduled for this meeting. <br />5. Discussion of Environment Board, Marty Asleson/Maureen Davidson <br />Marty and Maureen Davidson, Environmental Board Chairman outlined the <br />creation of the Environmental Board. By-laws and a regular meeting <br />schedule has been prepared. Board members will be appointed in the same <br />manner as the Planning and Zoning Board and Park and Recreation Board. <br />One member has not been attending meetings regularly. This person will be <br />contacted and if another appointment is necessary, the Council will be <br />advised. All current board members will be officially appointed at Monday's <br />Council meeting. The terms will be staggered so that some terms will end at <br />the end of this year and additional appointments will be made when other <br />board members are appointed shortly after January 1, 1999. Stipends will <br />begin after the ordinance is adopted. <br />With the official formation of this advisory board, the City Code will require <br />amendment. Environmental issues that are currently the responsibility of <br />the Park Board will be removed and become the duties of the Environmental <br />Board. Marty presented a draft ordinance that would amend the City Code <br />as described. He will have the draft ready for Council review at the next <br />work session. <br />Concern was expressed regarding overlap of jurisdiction on issues with the <br />Planning and Zoning Board and the Park Board. Maureen noted that when <br />the board was first formed there was a concern that environmental issues <br />were not being addressed. The ordinance should address both of these <br />concerns. <br />Concern was expressed regarding this board lengthening the process of <br />planning items on their way to Council approval. Staff will develop a process <br />showing the channel an item would go through before it reaches the Council. <br />6.
