Hozza, President Saint Paul City Council 719 City Hall Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102 Dear Mr. Hozza: In January of 1977, the Saint Paul Charter Commission commenced a study . ' of a proposal to extend the present two year term of office of the Mayor to a four year term. A special committee of the Commission was appointed and conducted numerous meetings, including a public hearing on April 25, 1977, prior to which public notice was circulated to all parties and organi- zations indicating any interest in the subject. The Commission, after full consideration of the committee report, on June 23, 1977, approved the committee's recommendation that the two year term of the Mayor be extended to a four year term. Thereafter, on September 29, 1977, the Commission adopted a formal resolution recommending that the proposed amendment to the Saint Paul City Charter be forwarded to the Saint Paul City Council in June, 1978, recommending that the proposed amendment be submitted to the electorate at the general election in 1978. This recom- mendation is formally expressed in the Saint Paul Charter Commission reso- lution attached hereto. An ordinance is also attached hereto, p�epared by the Office of the City At- torney, which will effectuate this recommendation in the event the City Council concurs. Yours very truly, Timo y P.
