Casserly, Esq. <br /> Gay L. Cerney, Esq. <br />Date: October 3, 2005 <br />Re: Roseville HRA/Change of Ms. Bennett’s employment status <br /> Our File No. 11637-1 <br />You asked us to determine whether there is any statutory provision which would prevent <br />Ms. Bennett from resigning her positions as Redevelopment Specialist with the City and <br />Executive Director of the HRA and then continuing to perform some or all of these duties on a <br />contract basis with the HRA and, perhaps, with the City. <br />We could find no statute which prevents a change from employment to contract status; <br />thus, there would seem to be no impediment to Ms. Bennett continuing to perform her duties on <br />a contract basis with the HRA or City or both. <br />Following the change in her employment status, Ms. Bennett should continue to adhere to <br />statutory conflict of interest rules that apply to employees, because the same concerns that the <br />statutes were intended to address would still apply. <br />8000 NORMAN CENTER DRIVE SUITE 1000 BLOOMINGTON, MINNESOTA 55437-1177 <br /> TELEPHONE 952/885-5999 FACSIMILE 952/885-5969 <br />www.krassmonroe.com <br /> <br />
