Mounds View City Council January 22, 2018 <br />Regular Meeting Page 2 <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause asked if Representative Jessup had support from other legislators <br />in the area on his two projects. Representative Jessup commented he would begin seeking <br />support in the coming weeks for his two initiatives. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause requested Representative Jessup continue to support Local <br />Government Aid (LGA). <br /> <br />Mayor Mueller commented further on how important LGA was to the City’s budget. She <br />questioned if the Governor and new Republican Lieutenant Governor would be able to work <br />together. Representative Jessup stated this was his hope and noted he would be taking both at <br />their word to work towards this. He commented on a court case that has been brought forward <br />regarding the Lieutenant Governor’s ability to serve in both the Executive and Legislative <br />branches simultaneously. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause reported it was his understanding an individual could not hold two <br />elected positions at one time. Representative Jessup understood this to be the case but noted <br />there was past precedent and reported this matter would be decided by the courts. <br /> <br />Mayor Mueller questioned what the President of the Senate’s role was. Representative Jessup <br />reported the President of the Senate was responsible for making sure the rules are followed in the <br />Senate. <br /> <br />Mayor Mueller thanked Representative Jessup for his presentation and commended him on a <br />recent award he received from the League of Minnesota Cities. She stated she appreciated all of <br />his efforts on behalf of the community. <br /> <br />5. APPROVAL OF MINUTES <br />A.
