Regular City Council Meeting Monday, October 19, 2009 Page 2 b. City Attorney Scott Anderson, 1314 Marquette Avenue, Mpls., MN Mr. Anderson expressed his apologies to the citizens of Roseville from comments he made, presumably off-air and off-camera, during a recess at the October 12, 2009 City Council meeting. Mr. Anderson advised that he had been speaking with City Manager Bill Malinen and Finance Director Chris Miller during the re- cess, discussing their days, and he had used some colorful adjectives to describe his particularly difficult day prior to the meeting. Mr. Anderson advised that, un- known to him, the microphones had apparently been left on during the recess, and whether listeners had been offended or not from his language during this pre- sumed private conversation, his language use had been inappropriate, and he of- fered his apologies to anyone hearing it. 4.
