ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL — JANUARY 8, 2024 28 <br />Councilmember Monson reported the comments stating Councilmember Rousseau was <br />emotionally abusing people were out of line. She stated the allegations were not compatible with <br />her personality and who she was. She explained Councilmember Rousseau was a fantastic person <br />and she believed it was unfair for another Councilmember to attack her in this way. <br />Councilmember Holden stated she would like to talk about offensive comments. She explained <br />she was not allowed to serve on a committee or commission because she will not throw people off <br />a committee because they don't toe the line. She indicated she has received more votes when <br />there are five people running than Councilmember Monson or Councilmember Rousseau. She <br />stated she has institutional knowledge, but the slate has determined she cannot serve on a <br />committee. She described how she takes a leadership approach when serving, she talks with <br />people in order to bring out the best in people. She understood that Mr. Vijums did not have to <br />resign, but he was demoted to nothing and he chose not to stay. She indicated he was humiliated. <br />The motion carried 3-2 (Councilmember Holden and Mayor Grant opposed). <br />I. Motion To Approve Resolution 2024-004 Designating City -Owned Property <br />As South Point Park <br />Councilmember Holden stated the Council had agreed to this park name. However, she stated <br />she did not have enough information regarding the park signage and how it would be laid out. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained he would be bringing this item <br />back to the PTRC to get their recommendation on the type of signage and signage location for this <br />park. <br />MOTION: Councilmember Fabel moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to <br />Approve Resolution 2024-004 Designating City -Owned Property As South <br />Point Park. The motion carried (5-0). <br />J. Motion To Approve Invoice From Emergency Apparatus Maintenance, Inc. — <br />Tanker Truck Repairs <br />Councilmember Holden stated she spoke with Director Swearingen earlier regarding this matter. <br />She explained the City was looking to spend $10,000 on repairs on a vehicle that would be <br />replaced next year. She questioned why this matter was not being investigated by a fleet manager. <br />She questioned what could be done to take care of City vehicles to ensure this type of costly <br />repair was not needed in the future. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen indicated this vehicle was purchased in 2009 <br />and noted materials are replaced over time with stainless steel to assist with preventing rust. He <br />explained the City does not have a way to spray the underside of its vehicles at the Public Works <br />facility. <br />Councilmember Holden asked if the City would be trading this vehicle in after one year. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported this was the case. He commented <br />further on how the fleet manager was evaluating the City's vehicle purchase for 2025. <br />
