Slater, 'Executive D~ DATE: TO: SUBJECT:, Proposed Constitutional Amendment LMC Dues Adjustment The Constitution of the League of Minnesota (Article IV, section 9) requires that the LMC President appoint a committee on Dues and services every three years. This committee is charged with reviewing the services of the League and proposing a dues structure to raise sufficient revenue to finance League services. . In February of 1988 Mayor Hazama, LMC President, appointed Mayor Joanell Dyrstad, Mayor, Red Wing and Mr. James F. Miller, city Manager of Minnetonka as co-chairs of the Dues and Services Committee. Mayor Hazama also selected a broadly based committee of 42 city officials representing cities of all sizes and municipal occupations. The committee reviewed all current League services and supporting budgetary information. The committee also conducted an extensive membership survey which focused on LMC member evaluation of current and proposed service programs. Based on its review of all relevant materials, the committee decided to recommend a dues adjustment program for a three-year period. The three year time sequence was selected, as it has been in the past, as the minimum time necessary for orderly fiscal planning. The committee also concluded that it would be best to set upper limits for potential dues adjustments of 5 percent for 1989-90, 6 percent for 1990-91 and 7 percent for 1991-92. The committee, however, did not wish to vote these increases as the fixed dues for the three year period. Rather, the committee proposed a constitutional amendment which allows dues increases NOT TO EXCEED 5 percent, 6 percent and 7 percent in the respective years but required the League's Board of Directors to make the final decision on the dues for the three year period. . The committee conclud~d that setting limits but holding the Board accountable would establish a potential for more conservative budgeting practices b the League with the prospect that ~he full authorized percent Ii its might not be required in the future. In this event, the Board would be free to set dues below the maximum percentages. This matter will be c nsidered at the June LMC Conference and acted on as a propose~' amendment to the LMC constitution. Under this proposal, he maximum percent increases would be included in the const'tution with accompanying language authorizing the Board of Directorr to make the final determination. A copy of the propose~ constitution amendment is enclosed for your consideration. I.encorr, age you and your council to review this matter before the LMC Conference and be prepared to cast your city's vote at the st. Paul meeting on June 9 at the Radisson Hotel at 3:45 p.m. I . . . . CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT FOR DUES ARTICLE III FEES AND DUES The annual dues for each municipality shall be eases set by the League Board of Directors not to exceed the amounts established ift- on the schedule or schedules set out as appendices to this constitution, which shall be adopted or amended in the same manner as other parts of this constitution.

Press On . . . May 25, 1988 TO: Honorable Wallace L. Abrahamson Councilwoman Ann Bodlovich Councilman Thomas Farrell Councilman Jay Kimble Councilman Robert Opheim FROM: Mark Zauhar In the process of completing our planned expansion at our Stillwater site, we have encountered a problem with our parking lot. To properly drain our lot and comply with the city specifications, a line needs to be installed between our parking lot and the adjoining lot to the south. Normally the city would install this line and assess the expense back. to the adjoining property owners. In this case, the ownership of the adjoining property is in question and therefore complicating the completion of our lot. To resolve this problem, we would like to install the pipe at a cost of $17,400 and request that we be given credit for the same amount against future assessments. On behalf of Press On, I ask. your support on this issue.
