City Council Regular Meeting Minutes <br /> December 20, 2000 <br /> • Page 5 <br /> 1 Thuesen reported that he attended a recent School Board meeting, and that Senator Marty and <br /> 2 Representative McQuire were also at the meeting. Unfunded mandates from the state, capital <br /> 3 improvement issues versus available fund were topics of discussion. Thuesen felt the Council <br /> 4 needs to remember that the City is a small enough community that there are issues that the City <br /> 5 is involved with that would or could impact the school board, and vice versa. He recommended <br /> 6 that the Councilmembers attend a school board meeting if possible to obtain information and <br /> 7 provide input. <br /> 8 Thuesen also reported that he took a field trip to the Wiseman Museum-with his daughter. He <br /> 9 met a recent graduate from Bethel College who has a studio art degree, but she talked about her <br /> 10 art background and how she has been involved with Bethel College regarding painting murals. <br /> 11 She will soon be painting murals in the Dominican Republic. Thuesen contacted a person at the <br /> 12 St. Anthony Shopping Center about donation of a wall to have a mural painted. He suggested <br /> 13 that the public could be invited to provide input, and at this point, was looking for some further <br /> 14 direction from the Council. <br /> 15 Hodson reported that he saw Santa Claus earlier in the evening, and that Mr. Claus has been <br /> 16 reported to be in the Village. <br /> Horst did not have a report. <br /> 18 Cavanaugh noted that the City recently held the employee lunch and members of the Planning <br /> 19 and Parks Commission were present. <br /> 20 <br /> 21 Additionally, Cavanaugh wished to remind the Village that there are members of the City Staff, <br /> 22 in particular the Fire and Police Departments, that will work on New Year's Eve to ensure that <br /> 23 the City is safe and protected. <br /> 24 On behalf of the City Council, Cavanaugh wished everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New <br /> 25 Year. <br /> 26 XII.
