• Thursday, August 8, 1996, I attended the monthly TUG Meeting. Joyce Twistol, from the City of Blaine, discussed the procedures of conducting investigations. The presentation focused on 4 key areas of investigation, Pre-Employment,Negligent Hiring/Retention, Investigation Advisories, and Discipline for Just Cause. Joyce is very knowledgeable in these areas of personnel issues. The information provided was very informative. • Fall Clean Up day is scheduled for Saturday, September 21, 1996. The City will continue to retain the services of Twin City Refuse, in cooperation with Krupenny & Sons for the Annual Fall Clean Up Day. Information will be in the upcoming newsletter, as well as a flyer which will be distributed to all residents mid August to provide additional information such as fees, acceptable materials,hours of operation, etc. • The BIG WEDDING DAY is only moments away for Dawn and her fiancee Jeff.

The EDC loan committee will be meeting this Monday to review the loan and make a recommendation to the EDA for consideration at the next regularly scheduled meeting. Since the EDA only has one scheduled meeting per month, which happens to be August 12th,we may need to call to order immediately after the Council meeting to discuss the loan. I will bring forth an agenda, resolution, EDC recommendation, etc on Monday night if needed. • I have received an inquiry regarding the O'Neil property this week. Pam and I are evaluating the site to see if the use and building would work at this location. This project would be an excellent addition to the Hwy 10 corridor. Developers will be reviewing the information next week. One problem! We are unable to reach the owner of the property - Mrs. Louise O'Neil. I know she has a son but can not recall his name. If any of the Council members know the family please contact me. Keep you posted as things progress.
