Mounds View City Council August 26, 2002 <br />Regular Meeting Page 20 <br />Council Member Stigney commented that the Resolution references that the supervisors rated her <br />performance as satisfactory or higher and he is not one that rated her satisfactory or higher. He <br />then said he would not be part of a Resolution supporting something he does not and suggested <br />that the Resolution specify the count and not include him. <br />Council Member Thomas clarified that anytime there is language in a contract that says someone <br />is eligible for salary adjustments as other employees that refers to the adjustments referenced in <br />the City personnel policy. She then indicated that the contract applies to the first six months and <br />the policy applies after that and to interpret it in any other way she cannot even see how you go <br />there. <br />Council Member Thomas said that any time there is a vote of this Council where there is not <br />complete agreement it is one voice of the Council once it is done. She then said she has been on <br />the losing end many times and does not care how often you are or are not on the losing end at the <br />time when the majority of this Council makes the decision that is the voice of the Council <br />regardless of what individual members feel and she gets very offended when you say that it is not <br />the voice of the Council. She also said that she does not mind when someone stands up and says <br />they disagree but it is inappropriate to say it is not the voice of the Council. <br />Council Member Stigney said it is not his voice as he is not one that rated her satisfactory or <br />higher. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Sonterre. To Call the Question. <br />Ayes - 3 Nays - 2(Marty/Stigney) Motion carried. <br />Council Member Stigney suggested that Roberts Rules of Order requires unanimous approval to <br />call the question. He then asked if City Attorney Riggs had brought his Roberts Rules of Order. <br />City Attorney Riggs indicated that he did not have his copy with him and he does not believe that <br />a unanimous vote is required to call the question. <br />Council Member Stigney indicated that the City pays the City Attorney to provide guidance on <br />these matters and asked that from now on he bring his copy of Roberts Rules of Order. <br />Council Member Quick commented that Roberts Rules of Order does not require unanimous vote <br />to call the question and indicate the Mayor makes the call. <br />Ayes - 3 Nays - 2(Mariy/Stigney) Motion carried. <br />• <br />
