HomeMy WebLinkAbout09/16/1970 Council Minutes190 Mayor Anderson stated that we were proud of our part time forces; he had not made up his mind as to which of the proposals he preferred. He 'lotted that Circle Pines had originally asked for a proposal several years prior, but Lino Lakes had written the County requesting the present one. Chief Rudd of the Circle Pines force stated that the reason the part time forces work so well is that each officer lives in the community and takes an interest in it. He felt that a full time force of local person would work as well, but not the County force. Mayor Anderson noted that local officers may not be as strict with enforcing laws and writing tickets on people they know' and live among. Mr. L'Allier corroborated this and commented that it is difficult to tag local people and expect to get votes. There was further discussion on use and disposal of present equipment in the light. of accepting the Sheriff's proposal and then cancelling out later. The question of a Sheriff's office in this area was answered by saying it was a decision among the 4 mayors. Al Ross stated that he felt that the only.alternative was the con- solidated plan. After more comments it was decided to hold another meeting on the subject by the Councils only.

Mr. Jaworski suggested that an extra amount be budgeted to carry general fund for approximately two months since money received in the levy does not come until the middle of the year. This was discussed, with Mr. Hill noting that if we have no cushion it might be necessary to issue warrants. The matter of the Clerk's salary and the number of hours to hold the office open was discussed. It was mentioned that more billing work will arise when the Jandrie project is going. Mr. Bohjanen suggested that the normal offered increase for beginning bargaining negotiation purposes is 10 %. The decision was to keep the office open 6 hours per day with the amount of $5500 budgeted to cover wages in the event more hours are needed later in the year, thus needing fringe benefits.
