City Council Regular Meeting - 01/30/06 Minutes - Page 19 related to administration and enforcement; and further expressed her preference that the full City Council be in attendance to consider those amendments and final adoption. Ihlan moved to table final action on this matter until a future City Council meeting where all members were present; and the where the schedule would allow full City Council deliberation on the proposed amendments as proposed by Councilmember Ihlan. Mayor Klausing declared the motion failed for lack of a second. Further discussion ensued regarding the process for Councilmember Ihlan's numerous proposed motions; and allowance for adequate Council discussion and staff input. Councilmember Ihlan Amendments (From Memorandum to Members of the Roseville City Council from Amy Ihlan entitled, "Proposed Amendments to International Property Maintenance Code," dated January 29, 2006.) Substitute the Shoreview Property Maintenance Code for the International Property Maintenance Code. Discussion included the "user-friendliness" of the IPMC; applications of the Shoreview Code for a reference model and their specific compliance provisions. Mr. Welsch provided a history of the Shoreview Code related to past work of the 1-35W Corridor Coalition of seven communities impacted and the potential for consistency and sharing of an inspector due to the uniformity of the IPMC; and opined that the Shoreview Code was not as thorough, was more ambiguous and required more interpretation by staff, and didn't effectively address Roseville's needs (i.e., overcrowding; adapting for elderly occupants; heating issues; and exterior and interior maintenance by property owners). Mr. Welsch advised that staff was supportive of a nationally and internationally recognized code. Further discussion included the licensed nature of the IPMC, purchase of applicable licenses; and inclusion of the document within the City's Code for ease of interpretation and education
