Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for June 18,2018 Page 4 of 5 assistance if needed. The required quintile work had been delayed. Washington County had stated their interested in taking over the assessing for the City; however, the Council has always indicated their interest in maintaining a local assessor. Staff had sent out another request for proposals with a due date of June 29, 2018. If the City does not find a contract assessor, there is the option to contract with Washington County or hire a fulltime City employee, which would likely be more expensive. The Council questioned whether, if the City hired its own assessor,the assessor could be hired out to other Cities, and questioned how negotiable the County's contract would be. Bear replied that he knew of no other cities looking for an assessor, and he has not received a proposal from the County yet. The Council directed staff to have information for them at the next meeting, after the closing for proposals, and include information from Washington County. Update on the Yellow Ribbon Network Council Member Chuck Haas and Phil Klein reported to Council on the Yellow Ribbon Network activities held recently. The YRN received a request from Washington County Sheriff's Office to assist with home repairs for a service member on his 12th deployment. Haas shared thank you notes and photos of care package recipients, and a photo of the table and chairs donated to the Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans.
