Regular City Council Meeting Monday,January 13, 2014 Page 16 Councilmember Willmus suggested that, if Councilmembers have issues or sug- gestions, that they direct that feedback to the City Attorney to share with the Sub- committee during those negotiations. Mayo Roe concurred, noting that it would be appropriate for that feedback to be directed to the City Attorney versus directly to Subcommittee members to avoid any serial meeting perceptions. Councilmember Laliberte opined that this City Council had been through a lot over the past year in working its way out of one contract, processing through an Interim appointment, and bordering on a City Manager search. Councilmember Laliberte opined that their thoughts would be valuable; and expressed her interest in providing her feedback along with being aware of participation from other Councilmembers to the City Council for provision to the Subcommittee. Discussion ensued regarding the process and make-up of those determining a draft contract; the insight and value of Councilmember Etten's perspective from the termination process and those areas needing to be considered for a future con- tract; and the general consensus that the City Council was hereby clarifying that they had no desire to re-initiate the search process. Laliberte moved, McGehee seconded, directing the City Council Subcommittee of Councilmembers Etten and Willmus to work with the City Attorney to negotiate a draft City Manager contract with Mr. Trudgeon. Mayor Roe, subject to negotiation and approval of a preliminary contract, offered his personal and the City Council's congratulations to Mr. Trudgeon going for- ward. Mr. Trudgeon thanked the City Council for their support. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus; Laliberte; McGehee; and Roe. Nays: None. C. Reconsider HRA Appointment of Councilmember Mayor Roe advised that, after hearing from the HRA Chair and others, he had been persuaded to reconsider his point of view and whether it was appropriate for a motion to continue going forward with a City Councilmember appointed to serve as one member on the HRA. Willmus moved, Laliberte seconded, appointment of a Councilmember to serve as a member on the Roseville Housing & Redevelopment Authority; with action for appointment necessitated by Councilmember and current HRA City Council rep- resentative Willmus asking to step down from that role.
