Mounds View City Council May 28, 2002 Regular Meeting Page 4 s Council Member Marty asked what the check in the amount of $1,131.00 to Kennedy and Graven for general legal services for public works was for. City Attorney Riggs indicated he is working on a couple of items for public works and both items fall under the retainer. He then noted that one issue concerns the soundwall and another is a minor personnel issue with a public works employee. Council Member Marty asked whether the City would be reimbursed for the payments made on the Mermaid banquet center and the Silver Lake Woods project. Finance Director Hansen indicated the City has a policy of billing developers whenever possible and is doing so with the Mermaid. He then said he is not sure whether the matter with Silver Lake Woods is billable. Mayor Sonterre indicated Council has had questions on what is billable and what is not and then asked if there would be a way to flag items as reimbursable so that Council does not have to ask the question each time. City Attorney Riggs indicated the Silver Lake Woods matter began with Chuck Whiting and the intent was that the City was to be reimbursed. • Mayor Sonterre asked that this matter be added to an upcoming work session agenda. Council Member Marty noted a check on the Kessel matter in the amount of $1,813.06, a check in the amount of $325.00 for the Hammerschmidt matter, a check in the amount of $6,109 and a check for $2,434.00 for the AFSCME matter. Council Member Marty asked what the $774.00 payment to Minnesota Golf Association was for. Golf Course Manager Longville explained there is a fee to use the computerized handicapped system. Council Member Marty asked if the fee is paid through league fees. Golf Course Manager Longville indicated he would look into the matter and report back. Council Member Stigney asked what the $281.00 to account temps was for. Mayor Sonterre indicated the payment was for temporary accounting help during the strike. Council Member Stigney asked whether the payment to Seabury and Smith for the June premium was an employee or City contribution. • Finance Director Hansen indicated he would research the matter and report back to Council.
