interview people applying. There will be a workshop on property tax system at <br />Washington County on January 29, 5:30 p.m. <br />Council Member DeLapp reported the Governor Pawlenty has temporarily appointed <br />Mary Hill Smith to replace Ted Mondale as Chair of the Met Council. He pointed out that <br />the Community survey from Jaycees to help develop projects can be obtained at City <br />Hall. <br />Council Member Dunn stated she was pleased with the number of residents that came in <br />to discuss safety improvements on Hwy 5. She added that the split entry roads do cause <br />confusion and are a safety issue and that we should look at this requirement. Dunn <br />indicated she had asked for a special Council meeting, as soon as possible, with Attorney <br />Shoeberg in order to get an update on issues that have been lagging. Dunn said she has <br />been asked to serve at the Met Council, but then she would have to resign from her City <br />Council position. <br />Council Member Johnston stated he supported Sue Dunn's request for a special council <br />meeting. One of his campaign issues was to establish a Community Improvement <br />Commission. He will come back with a proposal for the next meeting and will contact <br />the Acting Administrator as to cost for staff support. <br />Attorney Filla stated serialized meetings are a risky business. Comments can be sent <br />through the Administrator as a clearing house to put together and then this input will be <br />sent to the Council. The public and planning commission members are to get their <br />comments to the Acting City Administrator. <br />Council Member Siedow asked if the Council should talk to the Met Council about a <br />settlement. Dillerud stated there will be a new Chairman or a new Met Council in a few <br />weeks. That new group may have more interest in a settlement favorable to Lake Elmo. <br />Adjourn the meeting at 9:15 p.m. <br />Respectfully submitted by Sharon Lumby, Deputy Clerk <br />Resolution No. 2003-001 Authorize Signature for Payment of Funds from the Lake Elmo <br />Bank <br />Resolution No. 2003-002 Approve Claims <br />Resolution No. 2003-003 Approve Variance to Permitted Signs, Hilpisch & Pechan <br />Resolution No. 2003-004 Amend Text of 2000-2020 Comp Plan re:State Highway 5 and <br />Regional Trails, subject to Met Council review <br />Resolution No. 2003-005 Approve zoning variance to Eric Svendsen, 10920 32" d Street <br />Resolution No. 2003-006 Advise Washington County as to City's Determination re:Tax <br />Forfeit Parcels <br />LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 7, 2003 10 <br />
