From:Brian <br />To:Marisa Reyes-Johnson; Jonathan Thomas; Brooks Staples; Justin Klander; Brandon Clawson; Jerry Peterson; <br />Russell Warren; Nyle Zikmund <br />Cc:Jennifer Nelson; Vanessa Van Alstine <br />Subject:Fw: Charter Commission Documents for May 21, 2019, st Meeting <br />Date:Thursday, May 16, 2019 3:48:43 PM <br />Attachments:Original html part <br />Res0202Jun24copy.pdf <br />CharterRes2019-04-Draft.pdf <br />20190319Minutes.pdf <br />Commission Members, <br />Attached are the Secretary's March 21, 2019, Minutes, Draft Meeting Date <br />Resolution, and the current Commission Mission Statement <br />resolution adopted in 2002, requested at the last Commission <br />meeting. <br />Jenny, please have these items placed on the website for availability <br />to the public, and printed for Dennis Erickson. <br />Nyle, please email me the Time Savers minutes in MS <br />document format as requested in multiple emails since April 29. If <br />the Commission decides to use them, versus the typical minutes attached, <br />then I am able to CORRECT the minutes after the Commission meeting per <br />my duties. <br />Commission members, please allow me to explain why these documents are <br />coming separately. It is a result of a break down of the established <br />Commission process and difference of opinion on duties of the <br />Secretary and authority of the Chair. I request an agenda item be added <br />to our May 21 meeting to discuss the Secretary's duties listed in the <br />Bylaws and process to complete those duties. <br />I have attempted to discuss the existing process and duties of <br />Secretary and Chair, but have been either ignored (no reply) or <br />dismissed, for my 17 years experience doing this function, by both the <br />Chair and City Administrator. They have changed the process, excluded <br />the Secretary, and ignored the Bylaws and previous process established <br />by the Commission. It is the Commission's decision, as stated in <br />statutes, to determine its operations and procedures. If a change in <br />the Secretary's duties and resulting process are required, and I don't <br />think there is, it is the Commissions decision not the Chair or the City <br />Administrator, which is why I ask for it to be on Tuesday's <br />agenda. <br />Please accept my request to support the discussion of this topic. <br />Sincerely, <br />Brian Amundsen <br />Secretary, Charter Commission of Mounds View, MN <br />763-786-5699 <br />_______________________________________________________________________ <br />Begin forwarded message: <br />Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2019 19:07:23 -0500
