City of Mounds View Starr Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Nyle Zikmund, City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9849, Approving Acting Mayor, Treasurer,
City's Official Newspaper and Official Depositories for 2024
Introduction:
Minnesota state law requires the City Council to annually select an official depository for City
funds and designate a legal newspaper of general circulation in the City as its official
newspaper.
Minnesota state law also requires the City Council to select an Acting Mayor from its existing
Council Members on an annual basis. In 2023, the Acting Mayor was Council Member Gary
Meehlhause.
In addition, the Mounds View City Charter, Section 6.04, requires the City Council to appoint
a City Treasurer each year.
Discussion:
The St. Paul Pioneer Press, The Life, and the Shoreview Press have each submitted
proposals to be the City's official newspaper for 2024 (proposal letters attached). The
Council selected the St. Paul Pioneer Press as the City's primary newspaper for 2023.

There is an increase for publication in the Twin Cities Pioneer Press from $6.86 to $7.28 per
column, inch and for the Shoreview Press from $7.05 to $7.40 per column inch. There is no
increase for publication in The Life. For 2023 the City Council selected the Shoreview Press
as the City's secondary newspaper.
The attached resolution also appoints the treasurer consistent with Section 6.04 of the City
Charter. The City Council approved a new treasurer, Gayle Bauman, and deputy treasurer,
Amanda Bruzer, in August of 2023 for the remainder of the year due to the previous
employees' retirements. The resolution also lists the city job positions authorized to conduct
banking and investment business on behalf of the City. Staff recommends no changes for
2024. In addition, staff also recommends the City's official depositories remain the same for
2024. (See attached resolution).
Recommendation:
Designate the City's Official Newspapers (primary and secondary), Official Depositories,
Treasurer and Deputy Treasurer, and Acting Mayor by adopting Resolution 9849.
Respectfully submitted,
Nyle Zikmund
