<br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />July 12, 1988 <br /> <br />I Mayor Benke suggested we approach to see if it would be legally <br />permissable to have both Schmidt and Gunderman as alternative del- <br />egates; but if this appears to be a problem, then keep Gunderman <br />in reserve. Benke suggested Schmidt to the negotiation team and <br />Gunderman assist with the programming discussions. Councilmember <br />Williams suggested that the same alternate be consistently present <br />during the negotiations rather than trading off between alterna- <br />tives. <br /> <br />Motion by Brandt, seconded by Larson TO APPOINT STEVE SCHMIDT AS <br />ALTERNATE DELEGATE TO THE NORTH SUBURBAN CABLE COMMISSION NEGOTIA- <br />TION TASK FORCE AND ARYLE GUNDERMAN AS SECOND ALTERNATE. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes. Motion carried. <br /> <br />Councilmember Williams said the Ramsey County League will meet on <br />Wednesday, July 20th, at Como Park. The Park will be closed to <br />the public and a tour of the zoo will be conducted. Benke mentio- <br />ned the New Brighton Employee Boat Trip is also scheduled for July <br />20th. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Mayor Benke mentioned there was a meeting with the Chair of the <br />County Charter Commission regarding the consolidation and study <br />and expressed concern and reservations about the proceedings of <br />this group. Mayor Benke and City Manager Sinda along with Jerry- <br />Briggs and Mark Sather from the City of White Bear met with the <br />Ramsey County Board Policy Committee to discuss tax increment fin- <br />ancing policy. We encouraged the County Board to consider chang- <br />ing their policy which fosters tax increment as diverse to the Co- <br />unty interest and to take a more favorable and realistic position <br />on tax increment financing. Sinda had received notice that the <br />Board will reconsider their policy. Williams acknowledged Sinda1s <br />suggestion to invite Ramsey County Board Members to dedications <br />and other civic events, and feels this is a good way for the mem- <br />bers to see what tax increment financing does for the County's <br />well being. <br /> <br />Mayor Benke reminded the Council there is a work session for the <br />5-Year Financial Plan on July 13th, 4:30. <br /> <br />Adjournment <br /> <br />Motion by Benke, seconded by Williams, to ADJOURN THE MEETING. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion carried. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />The meeting was adjourned at 8:10 p.m. <br /> <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />RCL-Como Park <br /> <br />New Brighton Employee <br />Boat Trip <br /> <br />Ramsey Cty Charter <br />Commission <br /> <br />Ramsey Cty Board <br />Policy Committee <br /> <br />5-Year Plan Council <br />Work Session <br /> <br />.
