<br />Item No: 08A <br />Meeting Date: June 13, 2005 <br />Type of Business: CB <br />Administrator Review : ____ <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Desaree Crane, Administrative Assistant <br />Item Title/Subject: Second Reading and Adoption of Ordinance 759, an <br />Ordinance Amending Mounds View City Charter <br />Section 4.02, “Filing for Office” <br /> <br />Introduction: <br /> <br />On May 23, 2005, the City Council approved the first reading and introduction of <br />Ordinance 759, an Ordinance Amending Section 4.02 of the Mounds View City Charter <br />with some corrections. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br />The intent of the Charter Commission with this resolution is to clarify language in the charter <br />relating to the filing fee required for candidates filing for city offices. Clarification of the filing <br />fee of $20 would be consistent with Minnesota Statute 205.13 subd. 4. <br /> <br />Staff has reviewed this amendment and feels the changes are preferable over the current <br />language and support the adoption of the ordinance. Consistent with state law, the ordinance <br />would go into effect 90 days after unanimously being adopted by the City Council. The <br />ordinance requires a public hearing, which has been scheduled for Monday, June 13, 2005 <br />at 7:05 pm. The Notice of Public Hearing was published in the May 25, 2005, edition of the <br />Mounds View/New Brighton Bulletin. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Hold the public hearing and consider the second reading and adoption of Ordinance 759. <br /> This requires a roll call vote. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />Desaree Crane <br /> <br />Attachments: <br />1. Charter Commission Resolution 2005-01 <br />2. Ordinance 759
