City Administrator Statz stated that the item was contingent upon <br />IX. New Business, Item #4, it relies on whether the Council wants him to stay during his 60-day notice <br />period or leave prior to that period as it is an Engineering Conference (January 29, 30 and 31, 2025). <br />Council Member Koski stated that check #37264 was for the City of Lino Lakes, which reimburses them <br />for sewer services associated with Kwik Trip and NorBella sewer charges every two months (pass through <br />costs). Administrator Statz concurred. Council Member Koski asked about (Check #37271) for LRS <br />Portables of Minnesota and he presumed these where for the parks. Administrator Statz stated that <br />throughout the summer months there are more portables and in the winter months, there is one a Laurie <br />LaMotte Memorial Park and at Corner Stone Park. He stated that he felt that it was a quarterly bill but <br />would complete research and get back to the Council. Council Member Koski felt that the bill was rather <br />large for just two portables. Administrator Statz stated that a rough estimate would be $100- <br />$200/month/unit. Council Member Koski stated that (Check #37281) was for reimbursement of a <br />cellphone for the Administrator which is contained in his contract.

Council Member Koski questioned (Check #37299) for ASCAP. City Attorney Glaser stated that <br />it is one of the major organizations that pays artists their royalties for use of their lyrics/songs. Attorney <br />Glaser stated that the bands that are hired for Music in the Park generally do not write their own music <br />and play other artists music. Administrator Statz stated that there is another organization that we are also <br />licensed with is SESAC. He explained that it is very difficult to obtain playlists from all bands that may <br />be hired by the Parks & Recreation Commission for Music in the Park, then determine which artists/lyrics <br />will be utilized and then compare with agencies that represent the artists/lyrics. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Rios to Approve Consent Agenda <br />Item #1 as presented.
