Mounds View City Council June 13, 1983 <br />Regular Meeting Page Five <br />Councilmember Linke asked if more notice could be <br />given on the deadline for articles for the City <br />Newsletter. He also asked if what is now known <br />as the Mayor's Message could be turned over to <br />the other Council members for some issues, to <br />allow them the opportunity to submit articles <br />and become better known by the citizens. He <br />pointed out that the Newsletter is published <br />six times yearly, so each Councilmember could <br />have one issue, and the Mayor two issues. <br />Mayor McCarty replied that per the Charter, it <br />has been determined that the Mayor should write <br />a message to the citizens, and it has been <br />determined also that the City Newsletter is the <br />method to use. He recommended that they could <br />also add a Council's Corner, for the Councilmembers <br />to use for their articles. <br />There was considerable discussion on whether <br />there should be separate articles, or whether <br />they should be combined. Mayor McCarty stated <br />he would like to keep the Mayor's Message <br />separate, due to the Charter requirements. <br />Mayor McCarty asked Staff to prepare a proposal <br />for the Council, regarding the City Appreciation <br />Dinner, and having the City pay for the dinner <br />of all active Commission members, as a sign of <br />the City's appreciation of them. He asked that <br />Attorney Meyers determine what funds could be used. <br />Clerk /Administrator Pauley advised that all <br />Councilmembers will be receiving 15 dinner tickets <br />sometime in the next week, to sell for the <br />Appreciation Dinner. <br />Clerk /Administrator Pauley reported that a large <br />number of government organizations in the State <br />are co- sponsoring a 3 day symposium in Duluth <br />in July, on computer usage. He stated he would <br />like to make use of part of the $200 training <br />money available this year, and would have Finance <br />Director Brager attend with him. He reviewed <br />the expenses involved. <br />Clerk /Administrator Pauley asked Attorney Meyers <br />if the City has a legal means to require Bob <br />Waste to separate his commercial from his residen- <br />tial water usage, for his sewer and water billing. <br />13.
