All cities are eligible to participate in the settlements, but in order to do so, they must approve and sign the MOA and various participation forms on or before January 2, 2022. Participating in the settlements requires the City to release any claims we might have against the opioid distributors and manufacturers. Only certain Minnesota cities are entitled to receive local allocations under the settlements and Lauderdale is not one of them However cities are only eligible for future grant moneys and programming that originate from the hundreds of millions in settlement dollars if they participate in the settlements. It is unknown whether the City may want to participate in state or county grants or programming that may exist in the future, but a failure to participate in the settlements now will preclude such participation. Participating will not create or impose any additional obligations, administrative duties, record keeping activities, or otherwise on cities that are not receiving a local allocation. The only potential obligations would be those tied to any programming should the City desire to participate down the load. Councilor Moffatt made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 121421I A Resolution Approving the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the State of Minnesota and Local Governments and Authorizing Participation in National Opioid Settlements and directs the Mayor and Administrator to take any actions necessary to effect participation.

Adopted this 11t day of January 2022. Mary Gaasch, Mayor (ATTRST) Heather Butkowski, City Administrator Climate Emergency Declarations/Resolutions Minnesota Coordinated Effort "The time is now to come together as a united force, to insure a livable future for us, for your children, for your grandchildren, and for the generations to come. The time is now to create a sustainable future." - From then high school junior Sophia Skinner before St. Louis Park City Council What we're doing: • Local governments of all sizes, and in all regions of Minnesota will join in declaring a Climate Emergency on January 24th or 25th, calling for immediate action at all levels of government to address the climate crisis By acting simultaneously, these state-wide localities expect to amplify their impact, speaking together to urge local, state and federal action. Why declare a Climate Emergency? • The dramatically evident shift in our climate IS an emergency! It's here now; it's going to get worse; and it's impacting all regions of our state, country, and world. o The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change recently declared (August 21) that world leaders at all levels must take immediate action to reduce greenhouse emissions to prevent catastrophic impacts. • It's impacting Minnesota now! Unanticipated occurrences of drought, higher annual temperatures and sustained heat waves, dangerous air quality, repeated incidences of "hundred year" floods, and forest fires of unprecedented size - are all happening now in Minnesota. • Opportunity to mobilize and magnify: Declaring an emergency will call attention to the issue and can mobilize people to action. Working together we can magnify our impacts on our own communities and on Minnesota. o Acting together will increase our visibility and leverage for state and federal assistance o This conspicuous action will provide bold local leadership in a way that connects to a larger statewide effort. People are empowered when they feel what they do matters and when they are part of something larger than themselves. The Climate Emergency declaration customizable template includes local, state, and global impacts, a commitment to local action, and a call for state and federal support. Background on "Climate Emergency" • Started in U.S. by The Climate Mobilization organization - calling for a mobilization of government and society to make significant progress on climate change by 2030 • 2000+ jurisdictions in 34 countries have declared a Climate Emergency, including three leaders in MN (Crystal Bay Township and Minneapolis in 2019, Duluth earlier this year). There are 15-25 MN jurisdictions actively considering participating with three already having declared a climate emergency (Duluth, Minneapolis, Crystal Bay.) • U O 0 0 E O U m 13 c •� O c c • • c N ano 92 t� 0 (f) o a) (13 (0 CD .(f) 2) a) U � � O U � (1) (1) ca E E 0 co L-1-1 ° 0 0oN ca � (f) � V ° • c 0 U Sts C0 U a) V 92 0) W sai a) N E NeN O a) E U U U 0 c 0 z -o 0) Change 2021 Report iThs (1) co Fo V � O O .� C ct w E warmed the .. c ca 0 U O-0 2in M 0 -c -o cn ca O c0 • t's here now; it's going to get an emergency! e bu!pedwI SJ1 pue teSJOM ntergovernmental Pane O The United Nations a) U D • O i 4-' V NINJ 4) a) E E N co w> (0 • cn U a E :.c V a O L +.1 C0 4-1 U c a0 O a O • 4J c O E O O c as) • • • •. 7 • • ry •• n` �• .• at' $ r. r. •• • • •► •• ' • • • r 1 • z a) .0 W &)) 4— N lL Q a) 0 u V r O .O cy 4-1 Ca O I1- (.1) U o • a) o LL r W O. 4` • • • 42 y1 .. fJ t v n 8. o d V E 0L V a c 7 C 3 _ N V au b py Cu, >, O v > ti 7i •`-' ` V 3 O ti OOO v C O n c Qc b n I ` Y o.Lt2 to Oro O c c n EL w V c o3 ▪ 3 .'� n n O p t Mv> er V o 3 e7St. O u n c u • :Lc IX 0 • • 4 •.
