PUBLIC INPUT <br /> <br />David Jahnke, 8428 Eastwood Road, questioned the pay scale for the finance person, noting the <br />pay is higher for that position than it is in Blaine, and Mounds View is smaller. He questioned if <br />that is out of order. He also asked the status of the signs on the golf course. <br /> <br />City Attorney Riggs indicated it is before the DOT for a decision. He explained the assistant <br />commissioner had a hearing in the last month, and the letter that was received in the last 10 days <br />said a decision may not be made due to the budget crunch with the state. They are sending out <br />letters. <br /> <br />Mr. Jahnke asked if we will see an answer this summer. City Attorney Riggs responded he didn’t <br />know; it depends on the budget crunch with the state. <br /> <br />Jerry Linke, 2319 Knollwood Drive, stated he has served the city for 8 years in various <br />commissions. He served 12 years on the City Council, 10 of which as Mayor. He said the city <br />has always had the reputation of being a good place to live and work but in the last six months it <br />has become a laughing stock of the metro area. He stated he opened a local newspaper and <br />found that a resident of New Brighton is commenting about the stench that is being gener ated by <br />the actions of the City Council and by others that have no roots in the community. He added <br />that he wanted to make that point and is disappointed with the actions of the Council.
