ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL—JUNE 22, 2020 5 Mayor Grant requested the Council move approval of the Preparedness Plan and that the additional language regarding face masks be added as an attachment or addendum. Councilmember Holmes stated she was also concerned with the fact that the City Council had a policy in place that no more than eight(8) employees should be at City Hall at any one time. Mayor Grant stated this may have been a recommendation, but he did not believe a policy was voted on by the City Council. Councilmember Holden commented the last bullet under social distancing addresses this matter and noted the cap for employees at City Hall was set at eight(8). MOTION: Mayor Grant moved and Councilmember McClung seconded a motion to adopt COVID-19 Preparedness Plan directing staff to create an attachment that can be updated as needed based upon COVID-19 CDC guidelines and adding a line under Communications, Training Practices and Protocol stating: It will be updated as necessary by the City Administrator, reviewed by Council and posted. A roll call vote was taken. The motion carried (5-0). 8. PUBLIC HEARINGS A.
