I I I Council Meeting Minutes May 10, 1988 tials in not only testing air quality but also designing odor con- trol facilities specifically for rendering plants; he has worked for industry and on the regulatory side; formerly with the MPCA; has familiarity with the three plants; he has a practical approach and able to put things in lay terms; will be an expert witness, if needed, and can help the city map out a strategy for working with the PCA and for undertaking enforcement action. McKinley's agree- ment terms, not to exceed $700.00, is within the City Manager1s authority to order the services, but LeFevere wanted to update council on the search. LeFevere has talked with Arden Hill's city attorney who will be bringing it to their council next week; we hope they would join us in the effort and agree to equally share the expenses for McKinley. Benke stated, for council's information, there has been difficulty finding someone with these credentials (the more we learn about the odor problem, the more we realize how much we don't know); and added there are not very many people in the country in this field. Administrative Secretary announced November 8, 1988, is Election Day as well as the date for the city council meeting; council will determine alternate date/time at a later date.
