CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION February 1, 2016 <br />DRAFT <br />179 Charter Co -Secretary Bretoi remarked that the purpose of bringing the request to the <br />180 council is not to debate the merits of the ward system but to get necessary assistance in <br />181 case the Commission wants to send forward an amendment. <br />182 <br />183 Commission Member Howard Juni noted that he received some background information <br />184 on the Charter Commission as a new member. Within that information is a resolution <br />185 that clearly states the reason the ward amendment was declined for the ballot. The <br />186 commission can get advice based on that and have their discussion with information the <br />187 should have. He also noted that, since the matter of the ward amendment was discussed <br />188 in 2014, there are new members on both the council and the commission so it's <br />189 discussion that needs to occur. And the groups need to be able to understand if it's a <br />190 legal possibility and then discuss the merit of sending it forward as a policy matter. <br />191 <br />192 Council Member Manthey noted that he thinks this matter provides a good opportunity <br />193 for the council and charter commission to work together. He thinks the LMC is an <br />194 appropriate place to go for this assistance. <br />195 <br />196 The council and the commission members present discussed the neutrality of the <br />197 assistance. It's not about whether the amendment is a good idea but how to write a legal <br />198 amendment. <br />199 <br />200 Administrator Karlson remarked that he believes that the LMC is in the position to <br />201 provide the assistance the commission is requesting. <br />202 <br />203 Mayor Reinert asked that the question be put into a report and sent to the council for an <br />204 official vote. He also suggested the possibility of a joint meeting between the council <br />205 and commission. <br />206 <br />207 3. I-35W North Managed Lanes Project — Noise Wall — Community Development <br />208 Director Grochala reviewed a project planned to expand I-35W south of Lino Lakes. The <br />209 project will include some resurfacing to the portion of the highway that runs through the <br />210 city and the addition of a noise wall on the south side of the freeway. The city has the <br />211 opportunity for input and can decide how that process of receiving input from the public <br />212 will be handled. Mr. Grochala said he recommends that input be received through <br />213 informational meetings followed by a vote (areas can opt out of noise walls). He'd also <br />214 like to know if the city council would like to schedule presentation to the council by <br />215 MnDOT. <br />216 <br />217 Council Member Maher noted that she recently attended some training through the <br />218 League of Minnesota Cities and engaged there with other council members from cities in <br />219 the area. She heard comments that the roadway widening improvements stop at the <br />220 border to the city because the city didn't get involved in the process. Community <br />121 Development Director Grochala explained that MnDOT didn't include the Lino Lakes' <br />222 portion in the roadway expansion project from the onset but the city was invited to <br />5 <br />
