This report includes information about the Arden Hills <br />Pay Plan as of December 31, 1996. He advised this report is required by the State of Minnesota <br />on a three-year reporting cycle. Staff has run the statistics through the DOER software and the <br />plan appears to be in compliance. The information included in this report is consistent with the <br />revised plan as discussed in 1995. <br /> <br />Mr. Fritsinger advised the City Council that Staff is recommending approval of the 1996 Pay <br />Equity Compliance Report, and to direct staffto submit the necessary documentation to the <br />Department of Employee Relations. <br /> <br />MOTION: <br /> <br />Hicks moved and Aplikowski seconded a motion to approve the 1996 <br />DOER Pay Equity Compliance Report. The motion carried unanimously (5- <br />0). <br /> <br />F. Town Hall Meeting <br /> <br />Mr. Fritsinger indicated that Staff has been in discussions regarding the general format, <br />advertising and set-up. Staff has also been researching what information the residents are <br />interested in knowing about. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst indicated his pleasure with the package put together by Staff, and said it would be <br />of great help during the Town Hall Meeting. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski inquired regarding format of the Town Hall Meeting, its priorities, <br />and the seating arrangements of the City Council. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst indicated his desire to include the community in this process, and suggested <br />resident task forces be formed to deal with various issues. <br /> <br />A discussion ensued concerning the formality of the Town Hall Meeting. It was discussed <br />whether it would be more appropriate to have Councilmembers spread among the room, or to <br />have a more formal seating arrangement on the stage. The question and answer part of the Town <br />Hall Meeting was also part of this discussion. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski inquired regarding other participants scheduled to be a part of the <br />Town Hall Meeting. Mr. Fritsinger indicated the Sheriffs Office was the only agency confirmed <br />at this time. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst requested that, if time allows, that Staff prepare overheads of City maps and <br />parks, to allow for ease of explanation to a large group. <br />
