Mounds View City Council March 25, 2002 <br />Regular Meeting Page 5 <br />. MOTION/SECOND: SonterrelStigney. To Approve Consent Agenda Item A as Presented. <br />Finance Director Hansen explained that one of the checks under just and correct claims was for <br />the New Brighton/Mounds View Rotary Club. He then explained that it seems the organization <br />is expecting each member to purchase one ticket for their fundraiser which amounts to an <br />increase in dues for this organization. He then asked whether Council wished to pay the invoice <br />or not. <br />Council Member Marty said he was aware of the situation and indicated he did not have an issue <br />with paying the bill. <br />Mayor Sonterre indicated it was his understanding that the Board of Directors meets to set up the <br />rules for the organization and indicated that there would be an automatically mandated cost for <br />memberships. <br />Council Member Stigney indicated he did not approve of paying $125.00 for dinner. <br />Council Member Quick said he felt the City should pay the bill. <br />Council Member Thomas agreed that the bill should be paid. <br />. Council Member Marty asked whether the City was being reimbursed for the costs involved with <br />the Mounds View Animal Hospital development. <br />Community Development Director Ericson indicated that the City was reimbursed for the costs <br />associated with the Mounds View Animal Hospital development at the closing. He then noted <br />that the fees for Gas `n Splash would be added to the tax certification and the fees for the <br />Gustafson development will be collected. He also noted that the City would not be collecting <br />anything on the Longview Estates development at this time. <br />Council Member Marty noted the fees for the Charter Commission and Police Civil Service <br />Commission were identical. <br />Council Member Stigney asked what the charge was for. <br />City Administrator Miller indicated that City Attorney Riggs had attended a Charter Commission <br />meeting to provide clarification on a provision of the charter. She then indicated she was not <br />sure whether the expenditure should be billed to the Commission or Council. <br />Council Member Stigney asked if Mr. Riggs had attended the meeting in person or by telephone. <br />City Attorney Riggs indicated he had appeared by telephone. <br />• Council Member Stigney said he was amazed at the costs. <br />
