PUBLIC INQUIRIES Dan Novak, Co -Chair of ReAPP, stated they are not opposing staff salary increases, but as a matter of fact, the Administrator and staff have been ReAPP's best allies in this fight, and from this standpoint they deserve a raise. However, the referendum funds should not be used for any purpose other than directly fighting the landfill. The referendum question was very specific stating that the funds would be used for the purpose of opposing placement of a landfill. This fight is not yet over. Legal expenses are currently being incurred and will continue for some time yet to come. For these reasons, ReAPP core members unanimously recommend that the referendum funds be used for only legal, engineering, and public relations expenses directly related to fighting the landfill until Lake Elmo is dropped as a landfill site from the siting processes.
