Councilmember Greg Schroeder September 29,2003 Page 3 The vacancy would occur on or shortly after January 5,2004, after Councilmember Klausing takes the oath of office as Mayor of Roseville. Since the election occurs in November, such a vacancy would be foreseeable. Therefore, the Council would announce after the election results are finalized that there is expected to be a vacancy on the Council; that the City is accepting applications from residents interested in being appointed to fill the vacancy; and, that the appointment is for the remainder of Councilmember Klausing's term. The date by which applications must be received by the City should allow the applications to be placed in the Council packets for the first meeting of the year. At the first meeting of the year, after Councilmember Klausing would take the oath of office as Mayor, the Council would adopt a resolution declaring a vacancy on the Council. The Council would then open discussion on the applications received by the City. The vote to appoint a person to fill the vacancy would proceed at the conclusion of the discussion. Mayor Klausing would be the first to vote to fill the vacancy. In the event that there is a tie vote, the Mayor would be able to appoint anyone that had submitted an application to the City. The Mayor would make the appointment immediately after the tie vote is announced. The remainder of the Council meeting would occur after the appointment. If present at the meeting, the person appointed to fill the vacancy could, if desired, take the oath of office and participate in the meeting.
