A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING APPLICATION
FOR BOARD OF GOVERNMENT INNOVATION AND
COOPERATION GRANT; COOPERATION PLANNING GRANT
WHEREAS, the 1993 Minnesota State Legislature approved a $1.2 million grant fund for local
units of government to plan and implement cooperative and service sharing
projects;
WHEREAS, the money will be awarded to the most innovative proposals; those that cannot be
addressed locally because of some of the special and excessive costs to plan a
coopera�five arrangement or provide a prototype for other governments to follow
to institute comparable changes;
WHEREAS, since about 1981 the cities of New Brighton, Mounds View, Fridley, Shoreview,
Arden Hills, and St. Anthony have talked about sharing building inspection
services because each city has a difficult time matching its level of staffing to
swings in the level of remodeling and construction projects;
WHEREAS, New Brighton has been able to examine remodeling and construction trends for all
of the aforementioned cities over the last 5 years, researched other joint powers
agreements, and examined potential staffing needs for a shared building inspection
service;
WHEREAS, it is time to refine the plan, and find out if there is commitment to implement a
shared building inspection service.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Mayor and Council of the City of St.
Anthony authorize staff to participate with the City of New Brighton, and support their efforts,
to apply for a $25,000 cooperation planning grant for the purpose of assessing the feasibility of
shared building inspection services.
