Mounds View City Council October 26, 2009 Regular Meeting Page 9 1 MOTION/SECOND: Flaherty/Mueller. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7519, 2 Adopting Enhanced Design Options for Edgewood Drive Reconstruction, as amended to remove 3 #1. 4 5 Council Member Stigney stated he will oppose the motion because he thinks the sidewalk should 6 be in conjunction with a boulevard of some width. 7 8 Council Member Mueller stated for aesthetics she would most times agree except that the 9 southern end the sidewalk is adjacent to the curb so the motion will result in consistency in 10 location. 11 12 Council Member Stigney noted the school is more of a commercial operation and the area under 13 consideration tonight is in front of private residential property. 14 15 Council Member Gunn stated the original approval was to locate the sidewalk adjacent to the 16 curb so that has already been determined. 17 18 Streets and Utilities Committee Member Amundsen reminded the Council that the south end of 19 Edgewood Drive is a prime drop off location for school students, so that sidewalk location is 20 appropriate.

The Council authorized the 40 job audit, which determined the Account Clerk and Receptionist/Recycling Coordinator positions 41 were pointed too high so they were lowered. She explained that the market data indicates that 42 both positions were under compensated according to the Salary Compensation Plan. The 43 Receptionist/Recycling Coordinator received a 2% wage adjustment on January 1, 2009, but the 44 part-time Account Clerk did not receive an adjustment due to the pending job audit. Assistant 45
