Recodification of Lake Elmo Municipal Code <br />Steve Schwanke reported that his experience has been that most city councils <br />and advisory commissions establish an advisory body or have the staff go <br />through what has been revised and then bring it to the policy making body for <br />the broader policy issues and hold the public hearing. The concern he has it can <br />take so long that the recodification review may die before the document can be <br />completed. <br />
