Mounds View City Council June 25, 2001 <br />Regular Meeting Page 9 <br />The Planning Commission also recommended there should be no bay windows that would <br />project out front such as a bay window. Every precaution will be taken to minimize the intrusion <br />this would cause on the neighbor. <br />Director of Community Development Ericson stated Mr. Mesenga could not be at this meeting <br />and sent his apologies. <br />Mayor Sonterre clarified that windows to the east side of the building would be no more than <br />flush with the exterior of the building. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Thomas/Stigney. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 5572. <br />Ayes - 5 Nays - 0 Motion carried. <br />F. Golf Professionals' Compensation for Lessons <br />City Administrator Miller stated they are trying to research whether the Council had ever given <br />their authorization for the kind of compensation the pros should get for their lessons. They found <br />none. She stated she had spoken with the City Attorney and state auditors and they are <br />recommending that the golf pros position description be evaluated and compensated based on the <br />position description.

This is the recommendation the City Attorney's office <br />made. <br />Mayor Sonterre asked when the golf pros can expect to see payment for the times they've missed <br />getting a paycheck.

City Administrator <br />Miller explained they would be held until the City has the position descriptions reworded by <br />labor relations. This will require two actions by the Council. If the Council directed the City to <br />release the checks tonight, the new position descriptions would then be passed on to Labor and <br />Relations. They would then hopefully have them back for the Council's review at the next <br />Council meeting. <br />Council Member Marty asked if the pay would be retroactive. City Administrator Miller said it <br />would be. There are two position descriptions to reword and she is hopeful that the issue will be <br />ready for the Council's reconsideration at their next meting. <br />Council Member Marty asked what the City Attorney's opinion is on this issue. City Attorney <br />Riggs stated there have been concerns raised by the state auditor that there was not an authorized <br />payment. Proper procedure was not followed nor adopted by the City Council. This means it <br />
