City Charter Commission: � Re: Fina1 Draft, Amendments to City Charter Proviciing . . � for Electiou of Couricilmen from Thirteen Distriets Enclosed is the final draft of the proposed amen�ments to the City Charter pertaining to the establishment of thirteen council districts in the City ;o� Saint Paul. � This final draft incorporates the amendments to the � � fourth draft requested by the Charter Com�issian at , ` : its January 30, i976 meeting. This Y�.�:al draft also _ . contain.s further changes as described "below. The changes _ • included within this �inal draFt are as follows: 1. At the request of the Secretary, I Mave included a title at the top of the draf t as �ollows : ��Amendments to Saint Pau1 City Charter Providing for the Election of Thirteen Councilmen from � Thirteen Council Districts. " � " , . 2. The sections in several places were rearranged since the fourth draft did not have the amen,dmen�s to the particular sections a� the City Charter in the order in which those sections appear in the - City Charter. For instance, Sections 9 tl�rougY� 12 dealt with Chapter 6 of the Ch'arter, and they came after Section 6, which dealt. with Chapter 7. , This change was only made for elarification pur- poses so that the provisions will �,ollow in the proper sequential order. 3. Section 6, which is an amendment to Section 4. 04 - of the City Cha'rter, was inaclvertently omitted from the previous dra�t following your instructions #;o � amencl all sections which refer to four couneilmen� _ so as to specify seven counci.lmen. There�ore , in conformance with the rest of the amendments con- tained herein, this amendment provides that special � City Hall, Saint Paul, Minneso[a 55�02 � 612 298-5121 , ' � Charter Commission � Page Two February 2, 1976 meetings of the Council can only be called on the � written request signed by seven councilmen, rather than four couneilmen, as the Charter presentiy provides. It is my opinion that thzs ehange does _ not necessitate a furthe r� Charter Commission meeting to approve , sinc.e it is merely bringing the eharter . - in conformance with the previous vate o� the' Charter Commission, ��hicYi was to change all sections of the � Charter s�hich refer to four councilmen so that they will now refer to seven councilmen. � 4. Section 10 is a ne« amendment to Se�ction 6.06 of the Charter,, providing that. emergency ardinances can only be adopted by an aff irmative vote of twelve . � members of the counail, rather than a unanimous vote, as presently requir.ed. ._ . 5, Section 16 is an amendment to Sectior� 10.07.2, so � as to provide that a resolution makzna appropriations to meet a public emergency requires the affirmative vote of 12 members of the eouncil, rath�r than a unanimous vote , as presently required. � Puxsuant to the vote of the Charter Commissi.on on January 30, 1976, this final draft should now be delivered to the City Council by the Secretary of the Charter Commission. _ I would suggest that the delicery be made by a le tter addressed to the Council President and the City Clerk, enciosin� a copy of this final draft. This matter will then appear on the April 27, 1976 balYot following �ull . . publication of this �inal draft in the Legal Ledger once a week for two successive treeks. I will assist the City Clerk in preparing the proper lan�uage for placing th is matter on the general election bailot.
