Mounds View City Council September 25, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 12 <br />Ayes - 4 Nays - 1 (Stigney) Motion carried. <br />f Minnesota tatutes <br />Council Member Stigney inquired as to whether the Council is m violation o S <br />Section 410.12, Subd. 1 by denying approval of the resolutions. <br />Mayor Coughlin commented it was his understanding, after reading City Attorney Long's letter, <br />that City Attorney Long was concerned that the Charter Commission was asking first for this to <br />be considered under one statute and, in the same document, is asking to have it considered under <br />a different statute. Mayor Coughlin noted it was the opinion of City Attorney Long that this was <br />not in order. <br />City Attorney Riggs said the City was not in violation of Minnesota Statute Section 410.12, <br />Subd. 1 because there is a dual purpose resolution before the Council from the Charter <br />Commission and it is the opinion of City Attorney Long that it is questionable whether or not it <br />can be presented this way to the Council. <br />I.
