�. EN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: November 14, 2011 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Patrick Klaers, City Administrator SUBJECT: Stadium Resolution Discussion Background/Discussion The last City Council meeting was on October 24, 2011, apd a considerable amount has happened on tlie Stadium issue over the last 2%-3 weeks. It made sense for the City to consider a resolution of support for the stadium ;proposal when everyone thought that the Governor was going to present his stadium recommendation on November 7 and call a special session of the State Legislature for November 21-23. At the last work session the Council discussed that the City's position should be "on the record" if the Legislature was going to consider Arden Hills as a possible stadium site. As we all know, the Governor has not made a stadium recommendation and the special session has been put on hold. Therefore, staff is looking for Council direction on a possible resolution of support for the stadium proposal.
