Senator John Marty and Representative Mary Jo McGuire 7 Senator John Marty reported there had been a lot of disappointments in the 8 Legislative Session. He indicated there had been progress with welfare reform. He 9 stated one big issue of concern was the lack of progress on the property tax issue. 10 The Price Government Resolution was adopted by the legislature this session which 11 is a continuation of the shift onto property taxes. Currently the state/local 12 responsibility mix is approximately 58% state and 42% local. This resolution calls 13 for a shift to 56% state and 44% local. He indicated this was a difficult issue due to 14 the inequities in the system. 15 Representative Mary Jo McGuire reported there is a new sixty day deadline which 16 will be imposed on local governments to respond to requests to issue licenses, 17 permits, or variances. She reported the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act was 18 passed which provided incentives to communities to develop affordable and life- cycle housing and also offers help to clean up contaminated properties. The Board 0 of Local Government Innovation and Cooperation is requesting grant applications for 21 any innovative and cooperative ideas the City has with any local entities. 22 In response to Marks, Representative McGuire indicated the Metropolitan Council 23 was still working on the specifics of the grant for clean up of contaminated property. 24 She urged the City Manager to contact them directly for details. She reported there 25 was a proposal to tax municipal and state bonds that did not pass. She indicated she 26 was Chair of the Data Privacy Committee and a provision in the bill was passed that 27 call for an administrative policy program to provide training to anyone who deals 28 .with data. This program will train people to give out the appropriate data. The 29 legislature also passed the Crime Prevention Bill, a bill regarding notification of 30 foster care being established in a city, and a Neighborhood Nuisance Bill which will 31 make enforcement much easier for neighborhood groups. 32 In response to Mornson, Representative McGuire reported the Legislative Auditor is 33 currently conducting a study in regards to TIF. She indicated this is a complicated 34 system which needs to be simplified and overhauled to provide the service to the 35 cities it originally intended. 36 In response to Marks, Representative McGuire reported the transit issue is becoming 7 more important to people. She indicated the largest problem is the funding. �`38 C. Ci , Manager.
