-6- Motion 6-Motion carried unanimously. • The Mayor indicated he believed John Wingard, who had twice unsuc- cessfully sought a seat on the Planning Commission, and, "whose work background and experience certainly qualified him for the appointment" , should be appointed; to the Citizens Task Force and made the motion to that effect, which was seconded by Councilman Enrooth. to the discussion which preceded the vote on the motion, Councilman Marks indicated he wanted to amend that motion to designate Erling Weiberg, instead of Mr. Wingard, to . serve on the Watershed Task Force, citing Mr. Weiberg 's experience as chief executive and full time administrator of the Water Resources Board as perhaps better qualify- ing him for the appointment. Councilman Makowske agreed., saying she would second the motion, not only because of Mr. . Weiberg' s particular expertise, but also because of his ability to handle himself well, in public hearings, as demonstrated in recent Council meetings . She suggested Mr. Wingard be invited to serve on the committee which develops the Community Development Block Grant allocations . When Councilman Enrooth suggested Mr. Weiberg might be overqualified for the citizens group and his expertise might better be utilized on the same committee with Mr. Hamer, where more technical expertise is being sought, the Public Works Director indicated -that he perceived such expertise would be essential for either committee , since the policies developed by the Watershed District could have an adverse effect on a fully developed community like St. Anthony. • The Mayor and Councilman Ranallo indicated they would accept the proposed amendment to their motion.
