Representative Howard Neisen was present in the audience. He said
he wanted to arrange with Council to discuss the pending land use
legislation at some later time because he did not want to take up
that much time at a Council meeting. He also told Council that the
Legislature would be in session again on January 27th and if there
is any legislation the Council or citizens would like to give input
on, he would like the information as sson as possible so he has time
to work on it before the session starts.
He said the Metro Council may be given the power to review, and may
require changes in, cities comprehensive plans. He feels this is
directive legislation and ties municipalities in too tight. He also
plans to appear at the Ramsey County League meeting on October 15th
to alert cities of this so he knows how they will want him to vote when
this comes up later on. He said a bill allowing cities to put aside
monies for storm sewer studies is being proposed. Also, a Bill to
amend the open meeting law is to be proposed.
Mayor Johnson asked Administrator Achen if the 1975 Labor Agreement with
Teamster's Public & Law Enforcement Employees Local No. 320 has been
finally interpreted and if there are any ambiguities.
