RESOLUTION NO. 8815 <br /> CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW <br /> COUNTY OF RAMSEY <br /> STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING LOCAL DECISION-MAKING AUTHORITY <br /> WHEREAS, more than two dozen bills that restrict local decision-making were <br /> introduced in the 2017 Legislative session; and <br /> WHEREAS, local elected decision-makers are in the best position to determine what <br /> health, safety and welfare regulations best serve their constituents; and <br /> WHEREAS, just like state legislative leaders, local elected officials are held <br /> accountable through Minnesota's robust elections process; and <br /> WHEREAS, ordinances at the local level are enacted only after a comprehensive, <br /> legal and open process; and <br /> WHEREAS, local units of government are required to publish notices about <br /> meetings where policies will be discussed and decisions will be made; and <br /> WHEREAS, under the state's Open Meeting Law, public policy discussions and <br /> decisions must occur in meetings that are accessible to members of the public; and <br /> WHEREAS, cities are often laboratories for determining public policy approaches to <br /> the challenges that face residents and businesses; and <br /> WHEREAS, preservation of local control in Minnesota has yielded statewide <br /> benefits such as the 2007 Freedom to Breathe Act, an amendment to the Minnesota Clean <br /> Indoor Air Act. <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF <br /> MOUNDS VIEW that this Council supports local decision-making authority and opposes <br /> legislation that removes the ability for local elected officials to respond to the needs of their <br /> businesses and constituents. <br /> Adopted this 28th day of August, 2017. <br /> idAtt, 4/14-de <br /> Carol A. Mueller, Mayor <br /> ATTEST: <br /> a-A/17)/I'LS, <br /> James Ericson, City Administrator <br /> (seal) <br />
