MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR& CITY COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES
DATE: APRIL 19, 1985
SUBJECT: SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING FOR 4-23-85
A special City Council meeting was set for Tuesday, April 23, 1985
at 5:00 p.m. The purpose of the meeting is to consider adoption
of the final Environmental Impact Statement for the Laukka-Beck
Eagan Planned Development.
Attached please find a copy of a letter from Peter Jarvis regarding
the schedule for the completion of the Final EIS and Indirect Source
Permit for the Laukka-Beck site. Also attached is a copy of a pro-
posed resolution for Council consideration.
PERSONNEL
The City Administrator has followed up the conversation regarding
disciplinary action for Anna Goers. Enclosed is a letter from John
Roszak regarding various options for disciplinary action and, as
added information for the City Council, enclosed are copies of memo-
randums from Ms. Goers' immediate supervisor, Tom Colbert, regarding
her employment status from 1982 through 1984. Each page is marked
as, "Confidential. This material should not be read by unauthorized
persons." The reason for this heading relates to specific statutory
requirements that do not allow any data privacy information to be
reviewed by other than immediate supervisors which includes the City
Council. There were questions asked about this information and I
thought it might be helpful for each member of the City Council to
have a copy in his or her possession.
As a side note, I have sent a memorandum to Ann requesting the in-
formation that City Councilmember Wachter requested. She has pro-
vided some of the response in writing and I plan to meet with her
and specifically address some of his questions. I have also imple-
mented the reorganization where special assessments will become a
direct function of the Finance Department and this transition begins
Monday, April 22. It is not my intention to request a decision of
the City Council this coming Tuesday due to time constraints at a
special meeting. However, it is important that a meeting date be
established in which we can further discuss this matter to arrive
at the proper resolution.
Due to the growth and volume of activity at City Hall, it is neces-
sary to discuss the employment of additional clerical help and to
discuss a proposal by the City Administrator to combine Administra-
tive and Planning Intern funding to expand the level of compensation
and internship for Jon Hohenstein. I would like to brief the Coun-
cil on a couple of ideas and then will pursue them in more detail
for further consideration if the City Council is agreeable.
