Lindgren lot split
The council took up the Planning and Zoning item for Burton, Greg, and Linda Lindgren’s lot split request. The transcript records a motion, second, no discussion, and a carried voice vote on the request.
Agenda: A005. Motions: M002.
Comprehensive Plan open house feedback
The council discussed the Comprehensive Plan open house, noting that 10 people signed the log and 5 submitted survey responses. After discussion about continuing to accept comments while still giving staff a cutoff for compiling the open-house material, the transcript records a motion to capture responses received through January 16 and consolidate them into a spreadsheet.
Agenda: A006. Motions: M003. Speakers: Corey, council members.
Annual appointments and committee memberships
The council handled annual appointment resolutions. One motion added or clarified liaison and coordinator assignments for Planning Commission, Park and Rec, Road, Recycling, and building official language. A separate committee-appointment motion sparked a long discussion about Dan Williams and the Park and Rec committee; the transcript records that the motion to adopt the appointments except for not reappointing Williams failed, followed by another garbled motion on the resolution.
Agenda: A008, A009. Motions: M005, M006, M007. Speakers: council members.
Pay equity process for staff position changes
A council member moved to have the City Clerk prepare a report on the process to follow if the council considered changes to staff functions or titles in light of the pay equity report. After discussion with the clerk about job points, salary ranges, compliance timing, and documentation, the mover withdrew the motion.
Agenda: A010. Motions: M008. Speakers: council members, City Clerk.
Feasibility reports and financial review
The council discussed feasibility-report items that had also been talked about at workshops. The transcript records one motion to move part of the discussion to a following joint or special meeting, and another motion to continue an RCA to February while staff reviewed overall financials to determine feasibility.
Agenda: A011. Motions: M009, M010. Speakers: council members.
Hockey rink and recreational skating costs and ordinance work
The council debated whether staff should prepare quarterly cumulative reports for hockey rink and recreational skating costs, including staff time and materials, with some concern about workload and whether seasonal or semiannual reporting would be enough. The transcript records the quarterly-report motion passing. The council then authorized a council member to work with staff on a preliminary ordinance change related to charging or waiving fees, for later council review.
Agenda: A012, A013. Motions: M011, M012. Speakers: council members.
Staff COLA review and current wage-increase information
The council discussed how to make sure staff cost-of-living adjustments are reviewed on a fixed schedule and tied to the budget process. A motion was amended to keep the November review date in policy while having staff provide COLA research during budget discussions. A second motion directed staff to gather information on COLA rates and whether current funds were available for a COLA increase.
Agenda: A014, A015. Motions: M013, M014. Speakers: council members, City Clerk.
Deputy clerk hiring process
The council discussed the deputy clerk hiring process after a workshop conversation about not changing the pay range immediately, while allowing interviewers to bring back recommendations if candidates appeared to fall outside the scale. The transcript records a motion approving the same committee used previously, with Cory and help from a former deputy clerk, and the motion passed by voice vote.
Agenda: A016. Motions: M015. Speakers: council members.
