<br />Roseville City Council - Minutes <br />of 2/06/07 Special Meeting <br /> <br />Pg 4 of 10 <br /> <br />3) Councilmember Pust opined that the end product she wanted to <br />leave with tonight was a better understanding of how the Council <br />can better work together outside Council meetings, noting her <br />experience over the last year with inefficiencies in the process, and <br />suggesting that creating task forces, or subcommittees to provide <br />preliminary study, with recommendations and research presented <br />to the entire body, may be a more efficient way to assemble <br />background information. Councilmember Pust noted the work <br />done on the James Addition and the City Manager Contract and the <br />effectiveness of those task forces in bringing forward concrete <br />recommendations to the body.

Mayor Klausing supported reconciling goals and <br />Council conduct to allow reasonable meeting durations. <br /> <br />Substantial discussion was held regarding the role of advisory commissions, <br />and the role of the City Council and the public's expectations of their elected <br />officials in the decision-making process; how to make the public aware that <br />their testimony at the Planning Commission's public hearing was heard by <br />the City Council in the recorded meeting minutes; and whether public <br />
