<br />Budget Meeting Minutes - CC <br />page two <br />August 20, 1990 <br /> <br />average Council member salary was approximately $56 per month. <br /> <br />Motion by Neumann to increase the Council member salary from $50 <br />per month to $75 per month and the Mayor salary from $150 per <br />month to $175 per month. <br /> <br />Discussion followed. <br /> <br />Council member Neumann moves to amend his motion, second on the <br />amendment by Haberman, to increase the Council member salary from <br />$50 per month to $85 per month and the Mayor salary from $150 per <br />month to $175 per month; effective January 1, 1991, motion <br />carried unanimously. <br /> <br />It appeared to be the concensus of the City Council that <br />engineering fees be seperated from the "Other" account. <br /> <br />Photocopies were discussed. Mayor Haberman and Council member <br />Neumann appeared to feel that information copied for the Council <br />members was excessive. Council member Pelton noted the <br />importance of staying informed. The Clerk/Administrator advised <br />that it is often difficult to choose which items to include in <br />the packet. Often times a Council member will note that they did <br />not want the information, however, a different Council member may <br />comment that the same piece of information was very helpful. The <br />Clerk/Administrator advised that staff does try to use <br />discretion. She also noted that by supplying as much pertinent <br />information as possible it is also a protection to staff which is <br />always in danger of being accused of not informing the Council on <br />any item. <br /> <br />It was agreed that Mayor Haberman and Council member Neumann will <br />bring specific examples of regular items that they would like to <br />see eliminated from the packet. <br /> <br />Discussion of the proposed 1991 Lino Lakes Police Service <br />contract. <br /> <br />Mayor Haberman noted that the cost of the service has doubled <br />from 1988 to present.

An officer did not <br />respond until 2:47 a.m. He suggested that possibly Columbus <br />Township and Centerville could work out a program with Anoka <br />County for police protection which utilized one car and staggered <br />hours. <br /> <br />City staff is requested <br />justification of the <br /> <br />to contact Lino Lakes to inquire about <br />proposed cost of service; whether or not <br />
