John Kysylyczyn, 3083 Victoria Street N Mr. Kysylyczyn commented on the newly-formatted Council Agenda, opining that it should not be identified as a "work in progress," but was under the responsibility and authority of the City CounciL Mr. Kysylyczyn further opined that the previous system had worked well and that including the Councilmember pictures represented "self- glorification" and was not what the residents of Roseville expected or appreciated. Mr. Kysylyczyn opined that taxpayer monies should not be used to advertise Councilmembers, and questioned why staff and taxpayer resources were being wasted. Mr. Kysylyczyn noted his original intent was to make the public aware that he had withdrawn his application for appointment to the City Council, expressing concern that the process could be tainted, given recent newspaper coverage, and he didn't want to be a participant in a tainted process. Councilmember Kough responded to Mr. Kysylyczyn's comments regarding "Welcome to Roseville," advertising signed with the Mayor's name; opining it was done in other communities and was appropriate. C. Bill Cross, Owner; Network Liquors, 2727 Lexington Avenue Mr. Cross noted that he had originally intended to speak during the Public Hearing related to the SuperAmerica Conditional Lane Use Permit to Operate a Liquor Store, but even though it had been withdrawn, Mr. Cross encouraged Councilmembers to look at their existing Liquor Ordinance
