MSP (Johnson - Shelquist) that we approve the license requests of

Administrator Achen stated that Ramsey County Commissioner Robert Orth
has requested that he be able to attend the December 15 agenda session
to discuss the relationship between the city and the county. If the
Council has no objection, we will tell him that he may attend.
Mayor Johnson said that last year he had gotten involved in the county
legislative package and he tried to emphasize the attitude of trying
to work together. They have apparently listened and the Council should
take the time to read Commissioner Orth and Commissioner Norgard's
proposals. These proposals should be distributed to and read by each
Councilman.
Administrator Achen further stated that a motion is necessary to adopt
the assessment for the Jerry W. and Susan Ackerman subdivision that
was approved subject to their acceptance of the assessment of the new
parcel. It was accepted in the form of an agreement as of October 10,
1975. In order to certify this to the county we need a Council motion.
MSP (Hodges - Shelquist) that we certify the Ackerman assessment of
$6,826.73 for water, sewer, street and storm sewer improvements for
the Ackerman's subdivision (8% for 14 years).
Mayor Johnson asked Administrator Achen the status of the negotiations
with the police on their settlement for 1976. He replied that he had
had a meeting with the shop steward and business agent a week ago
last Friday and a tentative agreement was reached for 1976, but the
union indicated that they were not interested in considering a third
year mainly because they thought that New Brighton had settled low.
A negotiation committee met with the Teamsters' office and the Teamsters
have approved that settlement in three other communities like New
Brighton, in which case Mounds View employees would be willing to go
that route also. The New Brighton settlement was $1,230 to $1,328
in 1976 and $1,400 in 1977, with insurance benefits increasing from
$50 in 1975 to $60 in 1976 and $65 in 1977.
Mayor Johnson also asked the Administrator about the authorized
resolution to the Department of Corrections, to which he replied that
it was still being worked on as he thought it deserved a lot of
attention since it was a very sensitive area.
The dog report for October, 1975, was read to the Council and Mayor
Johnson stated that with the Council's permission, we should still
tell MAPSI to pursue vigorously the enforcement of the dog ordinance.
