Mounds View City Council
Regular Meeting
Councilmember Hankner stated that in reviewing the
Planning Commission minutes of August 1, the
Commissioners had not acted on the resolution yet,
but had placed it on their August 15 agenda. She
also noted it would be inappropriate to consider any
amendment to the Comprehensive Plan until they have
had their review of the Highway 10 corridor.
Motion /Second: Hankner Linke to table Item C until
they have had a complete review.
4 ayes 0 nays
Mayor McCarty noted the Planning Commission often
forwards resolutions to the Council without formally
adopting, to speed up procedures, and if this one is
halted, they would have to do that to others too.
Councilmember Hankner replied that the Planning
Commission had taken no action at all.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley explained the Planning
Commission should vote on a motion to direct Staff to
prepare a resolution, if they are not voting on the
actual resolution itself.
Motion /Second: Linke /Blanchard to have the second
reading and adoption of Ordinance No. 378, amending
the Municipal Code of the City of Mounds View by

Billing for

members as to the method of the billings and the
amount of the billings, as well as what had been
authorized for -Mr. Merritt to do.
Motion /Second: Hankner Linke to authorize the
payment of up to $12,240.25 to Grant Merritt, and
send a letter indicating what the City is willing to pay
for and what they are not paying for.
3 ayes 1 nay
Mayor McCarty voted against the motion, stating
that his main concern is whether Mr. Merritt had
authorization for all the work he did for the City,
and he does not want to harm the relationship they
have with Mr. Merritt, or have their position on
the airport weakened because of this billing
situation.
Attorney Meyers advised it is a client /attorney
relationship, and the City could submit their
payment and letter and wait for Mr. Merritt's
reply.
Councilmember Hankner stated she was not concerned
that Mr. Merritt has the amount of credibility that
some think he does, but she does feel the bill is
unfortunate, and Mr. Merritt should have taken the
initiative to get clear direction before proceeding.
Councilmember Linke stated he feels the proposed
payment by the City is very fair, as this is a
vendor /buyer relationship.
Motion: McCarty to amend the previous motion to
include an invitation to Mr. Merritt to further
negotiate the remainder of the bill with the City.
The motion did not receive a second.
Councilmember Hankner offered to amend her motion
to stated that the City is "willing" to pay, but
it was the concensus of the Council that the change
was not required.
Mayor McCarty expressed concern with being fair,
stating he did not want to harm their relationship
with Mr. Merritt.

the play put on by the Mounds View Players and
found it to be very enjoyable.

whether the City is getting what it is supposed to
be from Group W, as there have been so many problems
with them already in different cities.
Clerk /Administrator Pauley advised a public hearing
is scheduled for the next Council meeting, and it
will be discussed at that time.
Mayor McCarty stated that a concern of the Council
had been to stop the revolving door of the Clerk/
Administrator's position, with one of their thoughts
being that it would help to have the administrator's salary
with cities of the same size. He stated he would
like to discuss the situation at the next agenda
session, as the last item, allowing Clerk /Admini-
strator Pauley to leave before they start their
discussion.
