21 <br /> MINNESOTA POLICE RECRUITMENT SYSTEM - <br /> • Suite 125 • 13911 Ridgedale Drive •. Minnetonka, MN 55305 <br /> Phone (612) 593-2666 • Fax (612) 593-2501 <br /> May 2, 2000 <br /> MEMO TO: City Managers/City Administrators in MPRS Communities <br /> FROM: Larry Thompson, Consultant to the MPRS <br /> SUBJECT: Proposed Dissolution of the MPRS; <br /> Enclosed Assessment for Operating Expenses <br /> As was indicated in an earlier memorandum, the MPRS Executive Committee has <br /> investigated the steps which are necessary to dissolve the System. At this point all <br /> preliminary steps have been taken, and the final step remains members' approval of <br /> the dissolution. The Committee recommends that this step now be taken. <br /> • Enclosed is a copy of a sample resolution approving dissolution of the MPRS, for <br /> consideration by your City Council. If your City Council approves this resolution, a <br /> certified copy of it should be sent to Dan Donahue at the City of New Hope. Once <br /> resolutions have been received from two-thirds of MPRS members, the System <br /> officially will be dissolved. Dan will notify you when this occurs. In lieu of a final <br /> audit of the System by an independent audit firm, the Executive Committee has voted <br /> to appoint a committee of three municipal Finance Officers to conduct such an audit. <br /> Also enclosed is an assessment for MPRS operating expenses. On September 26, <br /> 1966 the MPRS Board of Directors voted to cease all recruitment and testing <br /> activities by the System, and it discussed how to meet the System's operating <br /> expenses between that time and official dissolution of the System. The City of New <br /> Hope offered to loan the System funds for this purpose, and the Board of Directors <br /> agreed to reimburse New Hope for all such funds. The amount now owed New Hope <br /> is $3,000. <br /> Please note that your community's assessment for operating expenses is to be made <br /> payable to the City of New Hope, and it is to be remitted to the City's Finance <br /> Officer. Also, please note that the enclosed materials are being sent to only one <br /> person in each member community, so please see that they are properly forwarded. <br /> If you have any questions in this matter, feel free to contact either Dan Donahue <br /> (763-531-5100) or me (763-404-0515). <br /> • <br />
