ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION - JANUARY 18, 2022 <br />City Administrator Perrault mentioned there is a new resident page on our website, but new <br />residents probably don't know it's there. The guide could highlight that and it could be made more <br />robust on the website. He asked if they would like to see examples at the next meeting. A one - <br />page document or a magnet mockup could be done by the Communications Coordinator. <br />Mayor Grant said they could list the link to the PDF on the website of all the trails and noted that <br />the map is on the back of the Park and Rec guide as well. <br />Councilmember Holmes said a lot of the information they'd like new residents to know is <br />already on the website but needs to be highlighted. <br />Mayor Grant suggested staff highlight the new resident guide on the website, and then as council <br />members they can take a look at it and proof it from there. Anything they would mail could be <br />taken from the website. <br />City Administrator Perrault said they won't be able to tell if a new resident or current resident <br />has looked at the online guide, but they can get that page count and put it in the admin update. <br />Councilmember Holden left the meeting at 6:10 p.m. <br />Mayor Grant directed staff to elevate the resident guide on the website, council can submit <br />comments and then they'll know what's going to be mailed as it will be on the website. <br />D. City Council Photos <br />City Administrator Perrault said the Communications Coordinator can take everyone's <br />headshot or do a group photo. <br />Discussion ensued. It was decided that a group photo and headshots would be taken at the May 9, <br />meeting, assuming they are holding in person meetings. <br />E. Council Tracker <br />City Administrator Perrault reviewed the Council Tracker with the Council. <br />After discussion, the Mounds View High School Traffic Meeting item was removed. <br />2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES <br />Councilmember Scott said that tomorrow morning, he and the City Planner were going to be on <br />a zoom call with the Federal Reserve Bank as they release their dashboard on the status of <br />affordable housing in the metropolitan area. He was at a similar in person seminar three years ago <br />that was very widely attended, that had to do with innovative zoning practices for affordable <br />housing. He thought it was important for the residents to understand that the city, including the <br />council, are looking at in discussing affordable housing. <br />
