Mounds View City Council March 23, 2020 <br />Regular Meeting Page 3 <br /> <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause commented he agreed with Council Member Gunn that the City <br />should hold off on meeting the new requirements. He supported the City sending the Met Council <br />a message that Mounds View did not support the new requirements. <br /> <br />Council Member Gunn explained given the state of the world at this time, this was a frivolous <br />expense and she would not be offering her support to spend additional dollars at this time. <br /> <br />Council Member Bergeron indicated he agreed with the other Council members that action on this <br />item could wait. <br /> <br />City Administrator Zikmund requested comment from the City Attorney and asked if the item <br />should be denied or tabled. City Attorney Riggs recommended the Council table action on this <br />item versus an outright denial. <br /> <br />City Administrator Zikmund commented tabling the item would allow staff more time to work <br />with Metro Cities to address the concerns regarding the Met Council that have been voiced by the <br />City Council. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Hull/Bergeron. To Waive the Reading and Table Resolution 9254, <br />Authorize Funds to Complete the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. <br /> <br />Council Member Meehlhause stated this action did not reflect on the efforts of staff but rather was <br />the City Council’s frustration with the Met Council. <br /> <br />Council Member Bergeron concurred with this statement. <br /> <br />ROLL CALL: Bergeron/Gunn/Hull/Meehlhause/Mueller. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. <br /> <br />C.
