Mounds View EDA September 28, 2009 <br />Regular Meeting Page 4 <br /> <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Stigney. To table consideration of a new wall sign for the City <br />Council Chambers to April of 2010. <br /> <br />Commissioner Mueller stated Vice President Stigney raised good points, noting the water tower <br />needs to be refurbished so the time to start implementing the new logo is with that project. <br /> <br />Commissioner Gunn asked if these dollars can be used to fund painting the new logo on the <br />water tower when the entire tower is repainted. Executive Director Ericson stated it had not been <br />planned to use any TIF dollars for that project and the cost to paint the water tower would be the <br />same if the EDA uses the current logo or the new logo. Economic Development Specialist <br />Steinmetz added that funding to paint the water tower is in the CIP. <br /> <br />Vice President Stigney stated his support to fund the logo portion of the water tower project <br />through this budget since it is a form of advertising for Mounds View. <br /> <br />President Flaherty stated the Council Chambers sign is seen by the public during broadcasts of <br />the Council meetings so displaying the logo in the Council Chambers should move. He stated <br />he supports this expenditure since it in no way impacts the general fund except indirectly as <br />mentioned by Vice President Stigney. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 2 (Mueller, Stigney) Nays – 3 (Gunn, Hull, Flaherty) Motion failed. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Flaherty/Gunn. To authorize the use of $1,400 from the 2009 “Other <br />Professional Services” budget for Spectrum Sign Systems to create and install a new wall sign <br />for the City Council Chambers with the sign being of the same color as the current sign and <br />without the backer plate. <br /> <br />AMENDMENT MOTION/SECOND: Stigney/Mueller (for discussion purposes). To amend the <br />motion to include the words “City of.” <br /> <br />Executive Director Ericson noted the words “City of” were not included in the specification so it <br />may impact the quote. <br /> <br /> Aye – 1 (Stigney) Nays – 4 Amendment motion failed. <br /> <br />Vice President Stigney stated he would vote against the motion on the floor due to previously <br />stated reasons. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 4 Nays – 1 (Stigney) Motion carried. <br /> <br /> B.
