Mounds View City Council July 9, 2007 <br />Regular Meeting Page 5 <br /> <br /> 1 <br />Council Member Stigney said that he would like the problem of sufficiency addressed but it 2 <br />could be by Staff, the Charter Commission or Council. The other two things were discrepancies 3 <br />between the language and the flow chart and it is important to correct them. 4 <br /> 5 <br />Council Member Flaherty expressed his support of the proposed Charter amendment and the 6 <br />recommended language on timelines and sufficiency. He feels that the Charter amendment 7 <br />presented should be approved keeping in mind that a subsequent clarifying amendment may be in 8 <br />order. 9 <br /> 10 <br />City Administrator Ulrich and City Attorney Riggs agreed to work on the language to present to 11 <br />the Charter Commission for consideration. 12 <br /> 13 <br />MOTION/SECOND: Marty/Stigney. To Continue this Matter to the July 23, 2007 Council 14 <br />Meeting. 15 <br /> 16 <br />Council Member Mueller said that the sufficiency information is set up in the Charter to be fair 17 <br />both to the City and the residents and it does not define what the petition is and she thinks that a 18 <br />definition is one thing but anything beyond that is something that should go before the voters. 19 <br /> 20 <br />Council Member Stigney indicated that the petitioning procedure and how it is spelled out in the 21 <br />Charter should be corrected. 22 <br /> 23 <br />Mayor Marty agreed that Council will take a vote at the next meeting, one way or the other, in 24 <br />order to keep this from being sent back to the Charter over and over again. 25 <br /> 26 <br /> Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. 27 <br /> 28 <br /> B.
