<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />December 23, 1986 <br /> <br />Announcements and Updates, continued <br /> <br />go any any further; would like to set up a meeting with the Chief <br />Judge and asked LeFevere's firm to make those contacts to try to <br />set up a meeting with the mayor or councilmember next week; and <br />each city will attempt to get their people there (with Salverda). <br />After that, if it is not moving in the right direction, we would <br />probably look at filing an injunction. <br /> <br />Benke stated, in addition to the consequences to the city's bud- <br />get and staff problems, we have not focused on the many residents <br />and victims who will be inconvenienced and burdened by having to <br />go downtown St. Paul. <br /> <br />Brandt commented that one thing of concern is the deceitfulness <br />of the promises and assurances given to the communities; years <br />ago they received cooperation from the cities in reducing some <br />local control over court services by promising that local court <br />facilities would not be eliminated without city consent. Now, <br />through this circumstance of consolidating into a single district <br />court, they are finding a back way to accomplish what, up front, <br />they promised would not be done. <br /> <br />Williams stated the court is not taking anything into considertion <br />other than their own situation; Benke stated that is part of the <br />frustration for which we have no answers. <br /> <br />Williams reported the Ramsey County League of Local Governments <br />had its annual meeting and banquet last week, advised the meet- <br />ings are good socially and also generally very educational, and <br />invited other members of the council to attend. <br /> <br />Benke announced that Williams was elected to the League's Board <br />and he can take the question to the Board for consideration of <br />having the night of the League's meeting changed to Thursdays. <br /> <br />Benke announced the next RCLLG meeting will be on January 21, <br />1987, at which there will be a top-notch panel of experts <br />speaking on hiring, firing, and selecting City Managers. <br /> <br />Adjournment <br />Motion by Brandt, seconded by Williams, to ADJOURN THE MEETING. <br /> <br />4 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried <br /> <br />The meeting was adjourned at 9:19 p.m. <br /> <br />Page Ten <br /> <br />Ramsey County <br />League of <br />of Local <br /> <br />Adjournment <br /> <br />R~- <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br />~!~~ <br /> <br />P:fnance'..oir-ector/City Clerk <br /> <br />. tSEAL} - <br />
