EXHIBIT A <br />Text of Charter Amendment Submitted by Charter Commission <br />Ward System Amendment: <br />Section 2.03. Council Composition and Election. <br />Subdivision 1. The Council shall be composed of a Mayor and four (4) Council Members who <br />shall be qualified electors in the City of Lino Lakes and who shall be elected at large. Council <br />Members shall serve for a term of four (4) years and/or until a successor is elected and qualifies. <br />The Mayor shall be elected at large and shall serve for a term of two (2) years and/or until a <br />successor is elected and qualifies. <br />Subdivision 2. Each member of the Council shall be elected from a separate ward. Voters may <br />only vote for a candidate for the Council ward seat within which the voters reside. Council <br />Members must reside within the ward from which they are elected. Is a Council Member <br />moves within the City from such Council Member's elective ward, or if Council Member is <br />excluded form a ward as a result of districting or redistricting, such Council Member's term of <br />office shall expire on January first following the next regular City election. <br />Subdivision 3. For the purposes of electing City council members, the City shall be divided into <br />four (4) serially numbered wards. These wards shall be as equal in population as practicable <br />and each ward shall be composed of compact, contiguous territory. Ward boundaries shall <br />follow visible, clearly recognizable physical features as required by state law. <br />Subdivision 4. Upon enactment of these provisions, and after every Federal decennial census, <br />the Charter Commission, after public hearings, shall determine the council election wards <br />(districting) in the manner described in this section. The public hearings shall be held after <br />published notice of said hearings, and opportunity to speak shall be allowed members of the <br />public upon such reasonable terms as the Commission shall adopt. The Commission shall adopt <br />its districting resolution by a majority vote of its entire membership and file it in the office of the <br />City Clerk no later than the first Tuesday in June prior to the first election after the Federal <br />decennial census. The Council shall provide for a sum of money, adequate for this purpose, to <br />be used by the Commission to hire staff to aid it in preparing its districting plan. <br />
