Dear Mayor Coughlin and City Council,
We understand that the Economic Development Commission- consists of several- seats -
held by city residents and two seats held by local business owners. One seat is held by
Julie Olson.
After the recent letters toFthe editor-with-the-reference-to-AdolplrHitierwe feet that -Ms.
Olson should be removed from this seat. Clearly her attitudes do not reflect the business
community nor do we want -this type ofpublicity- fb -Mounds-View and its -businesses -
We support your efforts to Cable cast the Commission meeting including the Economic
Development -Commission and th-o Charter -Commission: - Because of this- itis ext emelr
important to us that the community does not associate Ms. Olson's attitude with the
business community. This seat on the Economic Development Commission should be-
held
e-held by a business owner in Mounds View who pays business rate taxes, franchise fees
and supports the need for the city to move ahead in a positive productive manner.
Sincerely,
Carol We'
