ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 4 <br />among elected officials and between elected officials and senior staff that lead to mutual <br />understanding. <br />Councilmember Holden asked if the retreat could be one day instead of 1.5 days. <br />Mr. Weinstein said they could be flexible but that he had proposed 1.5 days in anticipation of the <br />retreat being fairly intense. <br />Mr. Weinstein continued to describe the process of the retreat, and explain the pre and post tasks <br />and scope, including interviewing the Council and attending a staff meeting. <br />Councilmember Rousseau stated the community wants the Council to work together, and she <br />was OK with 1.5 days. <br />Councilmember Holden was in favor of the retreat but didn’t want to discuss her personal life at <br />the interviews, but only focus on the city. <br />Mr. Weinstein said they would only be discussing values with respect to leading the city. They <br />would have no icebreakers and no “kumbaya”. He noted some of the other cities and <br />organizations that he has worked with. <br />Councilmember Monson supported a 1.5 day retreat and adjusting as needed, and had no <br />preference as to where it would be held. <br />Mayor Grant felt it shouldn’t be at City Hall, but the Springhill Suites would be fine, or at the <br />County. He thought they could potentially be done in one day. <br />Councilmember Fabel expressed concerns about having breakout sessions and still being <br />compliant with the open meeting laws. <br />Mr. Weinstein stated that he’d never encountered an issue with that but he would be happy to <br />check with the city attorney. <br />Discussion ensued regarding the number of days and dates. It was tentatively decided a Saturday <br />in May would work and staff would send a survey to confirm. <br />C.Proposed Trails Discussion – Old Snelling Ave/Old Hwy 10 Trail (Lake Valentine <br />Rd to Hwy 96) and Lake Johanna Blvd Trail (Cty Rd D to Old Snelling Ave) <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated there were two proposed trails that <br />have had studies done and are ready to pursue grant and funding opportunities. The Old Snelling <br />Ave/Old Highway 10 trail connects along Old Highway 10 from Lake Valentine Road to County <br />Road 96. HR Green Updated a feasibility study in 2021. The Lake Johanna Boulevard trail runs <br />between Old Snelling and County Rd D. Ramsey County is leading the concept design on that <br />trail. The County is asking if the City would like to partner with them to pursue grant funding. <br />The Metropolitan Council Regional Solicitation grant would be the most probable for both trails. <br />Councilmember Holden asked if the Old Snelling trail was shovel ready.
