Dear Bob:
One of the steps recommended by Michael J. Galvin, Jr. , to im-
plement the Saint Paul Ci•ty-Y,ide Development Company is for the.
City Council to amend its resolution prohibiting members of the
Council from acting as directors of such local development cor-
. porations.
Enclosed is a draft resolution for introduction by a member of
. the City Council achieving this purpose.
Yours truly,
ROBERT O. STRAUGHN
Assistant City Attorney
