PUBLIC COMMENT 2 3 Mayor Lindstrom encouraged the public to speak with kindness and respect when addressing the 4 City Council during Public Comment. 5 6 Sharon Kirscher, 8406 Red Oak Drive, asked the City to consider what kind of ordinances to put 7 in place to address immigration enforcement. She wanted to see immigration officers required to 8 have body cameras and that they not wear a mask. 9 10 Carol Mueller, 8343 Groveland Road, reported she moved into the City in July of 1979. She asked 11 that the City not mess with golf carts in the City. She noted there has not been an incident with a 12 golf cart anywhere in the City since 1979. She feared that the City would be bordering on 13 discrimination if only allowing handi-cap people were allowed to apply for a golf cart. She 14 discussed the huge black eye the State of Minnesota has right now due to theft and fraud. She 15 commented on how the City was providing tax dollars to a nonprofit entity not in Mounds View 16 in order to provide food to residents in the community. It was her hope this program had proper 17 accounting in 2025 and an excellent reason for expanding the contributions in 2026, even though 18 food benefits had been restored by the federal government, the State of Minnesota and Ramsey 19 County. She wanted to ensure the City could pay for overtime for its police officers and to have 20 the streets properly plowed after a snow event. She discussed how valuable of a resource Police 21 Chief Zender was to the community and asked that the City Council not pass legislation that could 22 not be enforced by the police department. 23 24 8.
