Mounds View City Council June 12, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 6 <br />Council Member Marty stated he had asked Video Coordinator Patrick Toth why the special <br />• meeting was not televised, and Mr. Toth responded with a memorandum, indicating he had <br />spoken with Julie Olsen, Chair of the Charter Commission, who made a comment to the effect <br />that the Charter Commission was not a part of the City, but rather Ramsey County, therefore, <br />they did not feel responsible to notify anyone, and they thought the broadcasting was done <br />automatically. <br />Council Member Stigney stated it has been reiterated and emphasized by this Council that the <br />Charter Commission is not a part of this City, contrary to his personal beliefs. He indicated that <br />if there is a problem with the procedure beyond the posting of meetings and where they are to be <br />held, it should be better established. He stated this should be resolved and if there is some <br />confusion in the matter, he would suggest someone contact the Charter Commission Chair. He <br />stated everyone was present at this meeting, and expected to be televised however, they were not <br />because the Video Producer was not present. <br />• <br />Mayor Coughlin stated he believed it was incumbent upon the Chair of the Charter Commission <br />to contact the City, rather than vice versa, adding that the Video Producer was not a mind reader. <br />Mayor Coughlin reported he had participated in the I-35W Corridor Coalition Buildout Study, <br />which involved working with a variety of the principals in the seven cities of the Coalition <br />attempting to determine some of the points of interest in our respective cities, and how we, as <br />communities, can work together in our efforts to ensure that our plans are compatible. For <br />example, one city might be considering a factory on their border, while their neighboring city <br />might be planning single-family housing development in the same area, and the objective of this <br />discussion was to attempt to coordinate efforts so all were pulling in the same direction. He <br />stated this meeting was a good time. He indicated Community Development Director Jopke, and <br />Planning Commission Chairperson, Jerry Peterson had also attended, and he thanked them both <br />for taking the time to represent Mounds View in this regard. <br />No further reports were considered. <br />7.
