FINANCE/PERSONNEL & POLICY/INSC]RANCE
Special Meeting -- City Manager Election Issue
Councilman Atkinson reported a Special Council Meeting is being called for Thursday
August 24, 1989 at 5:30 pm., to declare an election be held on the City Manager issue
in the November election. Atkinson said there appears to be plenty of signatures on
the petition. If not the special meeting will be cancelled.
Relief from Assessments - Martin Property
Councilman Atkinson moved to grant Cheryl Martin relief from 1988 and future Storm
Sewer and Street Maintenance Assessments until such time as the property is developed.
Councilman Saverud seconded.
Atkinson explained the property was annexed into the city for sale and development of
an apartment complex. The sale and develognent never occurred. The property doesn't
front on any city street and the storm runoff does not go into the city. The committee
felt it was fair to waive these assessments.
Several councilmembers expressed concern this action would establish a precedent and
cause numerous taxpayers to make a similar request.
Councilman Saverud said the committee felt this was a unique request.
Councilman Furlong moved to refer this back to the appropriate committees and have the
staff develop a proposal under which this question can be considered. Councilman
Saverud seconded and the motion to refer carried.
Police Negotiations
Councilman Atkinson reported the police contract negotiations have gone to mediation.
Non -Union Salary Workshop
Councilman Atkinson reported the Committee requests the attendance of all the council
at a Council Workshop immediately following this meeting to discuss non -union employee
salaries.
