Request to call to order at Monday's meeting <br />Paul and Jennifer have two items that they request be considered <br />for final action by the Council at Monday's meeting. The items <br />are under Community Development Issues and are bolded to call <br />attention to the items. The Resolution for the MHFA application <br />must be in prior to the next meeting in order for the City to <br />qualify for new housing money made available by the Legislature. <br />Paul would like to get the recycling intern on board as soon as <br />possible so that the plans for apartment recycling can move <br />forward. <br />Audit Report <br />The auditors will present the 1994 Audit to the Council at the <br />meeting Monday. They have two other City Council meetings to <br />attend Monday, so we have placed them toward the end of the <br />agenda. I explained to them that their presentation could take <br />place when they arrive (assuming the discussions involving public <br />attendees have been completed). <br />LTFP <br />The last few days have been filled with work on the first draft <br />of the Long Term Financial Plan (LTFP). Because we will only have <br />one hour to discuss this first draft, I thought we could <br />concentrate on the General Fund capital expenditures. The LTFP <br />narratives are not in final form as yet due to finalization of <br />format changes. <br />This year, an attempt will be made to develop a realistic CIP <br />that will go beyond the usual capital expenditure budget. This is <br />especially important as the Council as made infrastructure <br />improvements a priority for the next several years. Mary Saarion <br />has begun to develop a capital improvement plan for her projects <br />which will be included in your packet. <br />Samantha <br />Hotel Development: <br />• Samantha and I were invited to attend the Anoka Chamber Hotel Task Force. <br />The task force was established to attract a hotel/conference center in the North <br />Metro. They feel there is a great need for a quality facility with the increased <br />business presence in the North Metro. Originally they were focused on a site in <br />Blaine. Since that site has not proven feasible, they were interested in helping <br />us market the site in Mounds View. The Anoka Chamber has earmarked funds <br />for a market feasibility study. They have invited Charlie Hall to the next <br />meeting for an overview of his plans and expectations. <br />
