Mounds View City Council October 26, 2009 <br />Regular Meeting Page 9 <br /> <br />#1. <br /> <br />Council Member Stigney stated he will oppose the motion because he thinks the sidewalk should <br />be in conjunction with a boulevard of some width. <br /> <br />Council Member Mueller stated for aesthetics she would most times agree except that the <br />southern end the sidewalk is adjacent to the curb so the motion will result in consistency in <br />location. <br /> <br />Council Member Stigney noted the school is more of a commercial operation and the area under <br />consideration tonight is in front of private residential property. <br /> <br />Council Member Gunn stated the original approval was to locate the sidewalk adjacent to the <br />curb so that has already been determined. <br /> <br />Streets and Utilities Committee Member Amundsen reminded the Council that the south end of <br />Edgewood Drive is a prime drop off location for school students, so that sidewalk location is <br />appropriate. However, north of Edgewood Drive is an area for pedestrians so she encouraged the <br />Council to consider the additional safety provided by a boulevard area. <br /> <br />Mayor Flaherty agreed a boulevard does provide more safety; however, the sidewalk location <br />adjacent to the curb was agreed to by the residents and he does not believe that design removed <br />any safety. <br /> <br /> Ayes – 3 Nay – 2 (Gunn, Stigney) Motion carried. <br /> <br />Mayor Flaherty left the Council Chambers at 9:21 p.m. and asked Mayor Pro Tem Stigney to <br />chair the meeting. <br /> <br />D. Resolution 7510, Authorizing Hay Point Adjustments for the Part Time <br />Account Clerk and Receptionist/Recycling Coordinator Positions, and <br />Approving 2% Wage Adjustment for the Part Time Account Clerk Position <br />in Accordance with the Salary Compensation Plan. <br /> <br />Assistant Clerk-Administrator Crane reviewed past Council considerations to approve a 2% <br />wage adjustment for staff positions deemed under compensated by the compensation study, with <br />the exception of the part time clerk position that needed a job audit. The Council authorized the <br />job audit, which determined the Account Clerk and Receptionist/Recycling Coordinator positions <br />were pointed too high so they were lowered. She explained that the market data indicates that <br />both positions were under compensated according to the Salary Compensation Plan. The <br />Receptionist/Recycling Coordinator received a 2% wage adjustment on January 1, 2009, but the <br />part-time Account Clerk did not receive an adjustment due to the pending job audit. Assistant <br />Clerk-Administrator Crane stated staff recommends authorizing HAY point adjustments for the <br />part-time Account Clerk and Receptionist/Recycling Coordinator positions and a 2% wage <br />adjustment for the Account Clerk, effective January 1, 2009, as authorized for the other under
