CHARTER COMMISSION MEETING
Resolution 2022-04
September 20, 2022
Whereas, the Mounds View Charter Commission has discussed and desires to clarify
the language in Chapter 4, Section 4.05 Vacancy in Municipal Elected Office, of the
Mounds View Charter that may caused confusion or seem to be semantically
incorrect.
The Mounds View Charter Commission, acting under Minnesota Statute 410.12
Subdivision 7, recommends the following amendments by the addition of the bold and
double underlined language and by deletion of the bold and stricken language. The
Mounds View Charter Commission requests the City Council adopt by ordinance
those items it is in unanimous agreement with. We also request the City Council
response within 30 days for any questions or clarification to any item as presented in
the modification of language that the City Council is not in agreement with the Commission
request.
Section 4.05. Vacancy of Municipal Elected Office.

or more remaining in the term of the vacated office, there shall be a special election

in which applicable MN Statute election law will be satisfied (this is estimated to be no
sooner than 120 days and no more than 160 days) after the vacancy occurs to elect a
successor to serve for the remainder of the unexpired term of the office vacated.
Subdivision 2. The City Administrator shall give at least sixty days published prior
notice of such special electionthe special election date and comply with all other
