Regular City Council Meeting Monday, Apri121, 2008 Page 21 Councilmember Roe noted that staff had clarified that violators were warned, through at least one of the notices, of the potential for an administrative ticket be- ing issued; and offered his support for the motion. Roll Call Ayes: Ihlan; Roe; Pust; and Klausing. Nays: None. Staff clarified with Ms. Bell Beckman that the Prosecuting Attorney contract ex- pired at year end. Ms .Bell Beckman advised that they would proceed at the discretion of the City Council's policy decision; noting that the Council would be aware of the cases be- ing prosecuted either way, and further noting that none of their other client cities have such a clause in their contracts, recognizing that this provision was added in 2002, with only an average of two cases per year being processed through the criminal court system. Ms. Bell Beckman noted that, even though Roseville was their largest client city, they had the fewest citation cases brought to court. Councilmember Ihlan expressed her willingness to make the motion to clarify contract language; however, with the express understanding that the City Council be informed any time a citation was issued; and that staff would report to the City Council after the six month trial period for a review of how the process was work- ing out. Ihlan moved, Klausing seconded, adoption of Resolution No. 10623 entitled, "Prosecuting City Attorney Contract Change;" changing the current prosecuting attorney contract to eliminate Item #18 of that contract until November 1, 2008, at which time the issue will be reviewed again by the City Council. Ayes: Ihlan; Roe; and Klausing. Nays: Pust. Motion carried. Roll Call c.
