City Council Regular Meeting— 04/11/OS DRAFT Minutes' Page 25 Mayor Klausing refocused the discussion on the motion, declaring personnel issues out of order during this discussion. Mayor Klausing spoke in opposition to the motion, given the specific language of the proposed motion, and in consideration of Data Practices Act concerns and the need to follow appropriate procedures. Councilmember Ihlan restated her rationale for the requested motion, given the most recent correspondence from Rottlund Homes that the City Council reject the proposed motion; the unprecedented request by Rottlund Homes for public subsidies; and the Council's right and obligation to review — as individual Councilmembers — all information and supporting documentation pertinent to the proposed development. Roll Call Ayes: Ihlan and Kough. Nays: Maschka, Schroeder and Klausing. Mayor Klausing clarified that no motion was necessary; that any Councilmember had a right to go to Mr. Casserly's office to review documentation; and that private or parcel-specific data should and could not be released without liability exposure to the City. Discussion included the timeliness and receipt of the Rottlund correspondence; and Rottlund's access to Council agendas via mail ancUor internet. Ihlan moved, Klausing seconded, for discussion purposes, directing staff to provide for Council review bills from Krass Monroe, PA in connection with the Twin Lakes development andJor charged to the TIF Economic Development account, dated from November 2004 through the present. Councilmember Ihlan noted that the City Attorney had provided their portion of the bills she had previously requested; but that she had only received Krass Monroe bills through October of 2004, and was seeking the billings from that point forward due to her often-expressed concerns related to policy.
