<br />. City of Centerville <br />Council ;Meeting Minutes <br />- May24,'2006 <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that the City could not go back and assess after the assessment <br />hearings.were.held for a mill and overlay and then the project was changed to.not do the <br />mill and overlay. <br /> <br />Engineer Statz indicated that he would check the feasibility report to see if that helps <br />ascertain why assessments were below the estimate contained in the bonding program. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated that if a legislation was passed, that would have <br />funded local government .aid or homestead credit aid reductions, then the City could use <br />those funds to make up the shortage. <br /> <br />Council asked to wait on the proposed resolution for further information on what <br />happened and whether there are other revenue streams for this. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />4. Consider Amending Code to Regulate Residency of Sex Offenders <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that she was asked to bring this before the Council by a resident <br />because Taylor's Falls has adopted a code. . <br /> <br />City Attorney Glaser indicated the state of Wyoming gives only about 50 acres in the <br />entire state where sex offenders can live. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that the former attorney felt that legally the City could send out a <br />postcard stating that they may want to choose to check the website for sex offenders. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that Anoka County watches these individuals and that is why they <br />would rather not live here. <br /> <br />City Attorney Glaser said that the concerns are valid but most law enforcement would not <br />support the ordinance from Taylor's Falls. Studies show that this pushes the sex offenders <br />underground and that reporting rates went from 90 to 50%. He then said that they would <br />like to have cities put money into monitoring, but an ordinance like this would give <br />residents a level of security. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra suggested sending this to Planning and Zoning. <br /> <br />City Attorney Glaser indicated that they cannot put a blanket ban in place, there needs to <br />be valid reasons for it. <br /> <br />Council Member Terway suggested that City Attorney Glaser be at the Planning and <br />Zoning meeting to discuss this with them. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson said that he felt that Council was more suited to handle this <br />issue. <br /> <br />Page 4 of8 <br />
