STARR, CITY ATTORNEY r4Ua�°�s'''�� 647 City-Hall,Saint Paul,Minnesota 55102 GEORGE LATIMER 612-298-5121 MAYOR 16 July 1984 Councilman Robert Fletcher Seventh Floor City Hall and Courthouse Saint Paul , Minnesota 551Q2 � Dear Councilman Fletcher : On Friday, July 13 , 1984 , you orally requested from Ed Starr and me a legal opinion with respect to the procedure for filling a vacancy on the St. Paul city council . Specifically, you inquired as to the procedure for filling the vacancy which will be created by your resignation of your fourth ward city council seat . You indicated that you would probably file with the Office of the City Clerk at twelve o' clock in the afternoon on Tuesday, July 17, 1984 a letter of resignation which, by its terms , would become effec- tive at two o_' clock in the afternoon of that same day. Before detailing the procedure for filling that vacancy, we must first determine when the vacancy occurs . St . Paul City Charter Section 2.04 provides in relevant part , " fa )n elective office becomes vacant when the incumbent . . .resigns by a writing filed with the city clerk. . . " Should you proceed as described in the previous paragraph of this opinion, the fourth ward St . Paul city council seat becomes vacant at two o ' clock in the afternoon of Tuesday, July 17, 1984 . The procedure for filling a vacancy on the city council is set forth in Charter Section 2. 05, a discussion of which will follow. First, however, it should be noted that Tuesday, July 17, 1984 is the last date for filing for the United States House of Represen- � tatives ( Minnesota Statutes Section 204B. Q9) . I called the Secre- tary of State ' s office today and verified that in fact at five o' clock in the afternoon on Tuesday, July 17, 1984 filings for United States Representative close . The significance of this event will be discussed in connection with the procedure for fill- ing a vacancy on the city council . . . . . • �-�y- �d3 � Councilman Fletcher 16 July 1984 Page Two _ St . Paul City Charter Section 2 .05A provides that the council. may, within thirty days of the vacancy, elect a qualified voter of the city to fill that vacancy as an interim appointee. If a tie vote occurs , then the Mayor is required to break that tie . Should the council not �ill the vacancy within the allotted thirty days, the charter requires the Mayor, within ten days thereafter, to appoint an interim appointee. Because your resignation will become eftective on the day which is the last date for filing for the United States House of Repre- sentatives , the interim appointee, regardless of whether that per- son has been elected by the council or appointed by the Mayor, may serve only until a successor is elected in the manner set forth in City Charter Section 2 .05B. "If__the vacancy occurs on or before the last day for the filing of affidavits 'of candidacy to be a United States Representative, the vacancy shall be filled at the next state-wide general election, being the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of even-numbered years . " Charter Section 2 . OSB. The successor to your fourth ward city council seat shall be elected then at the general election on Tuesday, [Vovember 6, 1984. Affidavits of candidacy for the fourth ward council seat must be filed with the City Clerk within fourteen days of July 17, 1984, i .e. the last date for filing for U. S. Representative. Should more than two persons file for that vacancy, then Charter Section 2 .05B requires that a primary election be held on the first Tues- day after the second Monday in 5eptember which is September 11 , 1984 . By the provisions of Charter Section 2 . 02, the successor shall serve the remainder of your term unless a vacancy within the mean- ing of Section 2 .04 occurs earlier. -_ ' � /�-,�S,y_��:3� Councilman Fletcher 16 July 1984 Page Three Very truly yours , EDWARD P.

Attached to this application, and made a part hereof, is my resume setting forth my personal back- ground, educational and employment history, and a brief synopsis of my civic and professional activities. Because the resume is only an outline of my background and abilities , further detail concerning my qualifications for an appointment to this City Council seems appropriate here. First and foremost, except for a brief period during which I received my bachelor and graduate degrees, I have been a lifetime resident of St. Paul and, specifically, the Fourth Ward. Moreover, along with engaging in numerous professional activities and organizations, I have been a member of the Merriam Park Community Council for the past several years. I have acted as chair of their Community Issues and Legislation Committee and most recently have been elected president of that Council. As a resident of the Fourth Ward, and in my position as chair and president of the Council, I have been involved in numerous neighborhood issues and activities. . � �� ,d3� LAAKIN, HOFFMAN, DALY SC LINDGREN, LTD. The St. Paul City Council July 27, 1984 Page Two The following is but a brief sampling of the kinds of activities and issues with which I have been directly involved. l. Review of City Council' s proposed new assessment policy including proposals for assessments on streets , curbs, side- walks, lighting, sewers and the like. 2. Review of proposed permit parking ordinance. 3. Work with D�innesota Pollution Control Agency concerning hazardous waste at 1724 Concordia. 4. Review of citizens budget process. 5. Review of various nuisance, noise and refuse problems . 6. Review of Mississippi River Boulevard plan. 7. Implementation of stump removal program, tree planting program and spring clean-up programs. 8. Review various requests for zoning variances, special use permits or other zoning and planning matters. 9. Engage in activities to attempt to revitalize the businesses in the Marshall and Cleveland area within the Fourth Ward. 10 . Review of traffic and parking situation in the neighborhood. 11. Review of proposal for and requests for basketweaving in the neighborhood. 12 . Dealing with the issuance of liquor licenses at Good Friends Restaurant, Stuart' s Bar, etc. 13. Involved in fund raising for the Merriam Park Community Council. Since my tenure as chairman and president of the Council, membership has gone up and the participation and involvement of community residents has increased. The problems we are dealing with in the Fourth Ward, some of which have been detailed above, are similar to the problems found in many neighborhoods throughout this city. As a member of the City Council, I would see it as my duty not only to carry out the many , _ ��r,-/D3 2- LAI3KIN, HOFFMAN, DALY 8C LINDGBEN, LTD. The St. Paul City Council July 27, 1984 Page Three administrative duties of the Council, but to seek that delicate balance between business revitalization and protecting the character and quality of our residential neighborhoods.

I wish to sub�r;it rr�y name for your consideration for the council seat left vacant by Councilman Robert Fletcher. My experience with city politics was climaxed in 1978 when I ran as an Independ- ent candidate with the help of Roslie Butler and her committee. Finding out how futilistic it was expecting to become elected as an Independent, I was part of a group formed to obtain the thousands of signatures necessary to make the District $ystem a real ity in St. Paul. All meetings, press releases, planning and implementing for the District system were held in my home for many months in which I held office as Treasurea�. Upon the successful adoption of the District or Ward system by St. Paul voters, I nominated Bob Fletcher from my district and used my influence to help Bob become elected. I believe Bob Fletcher has much ability, but it is unfortunate his e�cperience was not sufficient to carry him through the ordeals required of him.

I have been active in the community for a number of years, primarily in Ward 4. My service on the Planning Commission has enabled me to help neighbors meet and resolve potential conflicts. The budget will be on the agenda this fall . My experience on the Planning Commission and work for a community council have given me valuable insights which will be helpful in this area. Isssuance of liquor licenses , a matter of concern to many residents of Ward 4, is another item on the agenda. My experience dealing with community residents could be of value to the city, the neighbors and the license holders . Also under consideration this fall is the Parks Plan. I have spent many hours with the parks staff , planning staff, and neighborhoods putting this plan together. It is a thoughtful plan with which our parks department can build while living within budget constraints . Because I know how the city works , I believe I would be an excellent choice for the interim position. I look forward to meeting with you on Wednesday, August 1 . Sincerely, Gayle W.

CIT� ^�. �'^i':'S C'r;'!GC �� i `J�, , ,'fl:. 2040 Grand Avenue, Apt. 304 Saint Paul , Minnesota 55105 Council President Victor Tedesco Members of the City Council Dear Council Members: I am applying for the interim appointment to the vacant District 4 City Council seat. My reasons for applying are: 1) I believe I have the necessary background to fulfill the duties of the position; 2) I believe the appointment should be given to someone with no interest in running for the seat; and 3) I believe the appointment would give me a fresh perspective on issues confronting Saint Paul 's citizens. My work experience is detailed in the attached resume. In the course of working for the Planning Division, I have worked with Community Councils in Citizen Participation Districts all over the City, including 11, 12, 13 and 14. While we have not always agreed on every issue, I believe that I have established a solid working relationship with these districts and their community organizers. My work in the Zoning Section has given me experience in dealing with individual citizens as well as groups. Before working in zoning, I coordinated the Planning Comnission's review of the capital improvement proposals and the Capital Allocation Policies. I am therefore very f amiliar with the City's capital budgeting process. In the course of working with capital improvement budgeting, I have gained some knowledge of the general fund and special funds budgets as well . Based on my dealings with the City Council through my work, I have developed a familiarity with many of the Council processes. I therefore would be able to pick up the duties of this position quickly and become an effective Council member. My second reason for applying for this position is that I believe the appointee should not be a candidate for election to the seat this fall . Issues facing the Council will require a new members' full attention, and an election campaign would take time and energy better spent on dealing with these issues. In a sense, this appointment would be an extension of my current duties, since the City Development and Transportation Committee will be reviewing a series of zoning text amendments recently forwarded to the City Council from the Mayor's Office. The interim appointment would be well-filled by a concerned professional caretaker like me until the citizens of the ward can elect a new Council member. . �= �y-lv�2 Page Two Finally, I would like to be appointed to this position because of the broader perspective it would give me respecting my current position in the Planning Division. This appointment would give me a greater appreciation of the range of issues facing the City, and would provide me with a wider context for the planning and zoning issues faced in day- to-day planning work. The timing is perfect. I have worked for the City for almost five years and am ready for a new challenge. The appointment would last approximately four months; long enough to "learn the ropes", but not so long that I could not easily resume my duties as a planner. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to answering any questions you may have on Wednesday. Yours Truly, ,;� r�, ^ . �1 r=��YIC� Patricia N. James . ��y��, .�..� PATRICIA N. JAMES 2040 GRAND AVENUE, APT. 304 ST.

Your efforts to appoint an interim cout�cil member� �►ho is not a candidate in the election, are most conmendable. I concur that your choice should preferably be to appoint a non—candidate. However, your attempts to select a non—candidate, must be balanced by the importance of selecting an individual who can best serve the needs of the community. Should you decide to look at candidates who are running in the election, or if you cannot reach consensus on selecting a non—candidate for the interim position, I want to let you knoW that I am interested in serving as the interim appointment. I realize that there are both positive and negative aspects of this decision, but after careful consideration, I have decided that serving our community has to take tap priority. It is most important that the people of the �Eth Ward have an experienced and qualified persnn as their representative on the Council for these next feW critical months. Working for Bob Fletcher and with all of you this pas� year has given me knoWledge of the issues, unders�anding af the process, and ability to follow through on our policies and programs as well as maintaining our responsiveness to the many individual constituent concerns. Again, I sincerely hope you can arrive at a consensus and appoint the most qualified person from among those applicants Who are not candidates in the upcoming election. If that tu�rns out not �o be possible, I would appreciate your consideration. � Sincerely, Kiki Sonnen P.S. Than�c you all so much for the help and kindness yau have shown m� in these weeks since Bob resigned. � �- ��r io.�z � � I - - - ��;�. - � . ; r � _ � ; ! �:� �� : ; a'�� i '� ,-:#► :; �� ! ;O %, :� ' �' �� . . $ ;y� � �� ,�r'' f � , , µt�a� : ; <;, . . . , ��a��f.
