LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 2, 1996 4 D. Resolution 96-1 Authorizing Signatures for Payment of Funds from Lake Elmo Bank M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to adopt Resolution No. 96-1, A Resolution Designating Official City Depository, and Authorizing Signatures for Payment of Funds from Lake Elmo Bank. (Motion passed 5-0). E. Appointment of City Engineer Administrator Kueffner reported there are no increases proposed by TKDA, but she believes there is an inequity in what we pay for Mr. Bohrer's attendance at our meetings compared to other consultants. To close the gap between other consultants who attend our meetings, Kueffner recommended that the City increase Larry Bohrer's. meeting attendance compensation to $120 from the $75 per meeting he is now paid. Council member Del-app viewed the engineer's position at a meeting as, partially, a marketing position that is indirectly covered by the percentage of costs incurred on an assigned consulting project or any City ordered engineering project. M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to appoint Larry Bohrer, TKDA, as City's Consulting Engineer for 1996 at his current rate schedule with an increase to $100 for attendance at each meeting and include the terms of his presence from the beginning of the council meeting (Public Inquiries and Planning and Zoning) through the City Engineer's report. If there are no engineering matters after this report, then he will be excused. (Motion passed 4-1:Conlin felt that it is her responsibility to the City and its budget to stay at $75 per meeting and have the City Engineer's report earlier in the meeting. This is no reflection on Larry Bohrer as she holds him in high regard.) F.
