Mounds View City Council July 23, 2001 Regular Meeting Page 9 Assistant to the City Administrator Reed stated she did check with some other cities, and their responses are what prompted her to ask these questions of the Council. She stated she then received direction from City Attorney Riggs. She stated that some other cities have the pros pay for range balls, and some did not. Council Member Thomas questioned if this solution now satisfies the requirements with the State Auditor’s office that caused this problem in first place. City Attorney Riggs replied it does. The issues the State Auditor’s Office raised concerned the 100% compensation which would not be approved by the State Auditor. MOTION/SECOND: Thomas/Quick. To Amend the Compensation Structure and Set the Effective Date for Back Pay as June 15, 2001. Council Member Marty questioned the fact of the 70/30 split. He explained that as the City Attorney suggested, the City should be compensated for the use of the course. He stated his concern was that if other golf courses are paying 100% the City should not take the chance that this individual would take a position at a City that pays 100%. Council Member Marty questioned if the split should be modified to 95/5. Assistant to the City Administrator Reed stated she has spoken with individual that would be t he pro and they were agreeable with the current terms. Council Member Quick inquired how long the contract would be enforced. Assistant to the City Administrator Reed replied it would be enforced until October 15, and then it would be terminated.
