SAINT PAUL CHARTER COMMISSION
October 17 , 1g6g
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council :
There is herewith transmitted to the Council a proposed
Charter Amendment adopted by unanimous vote of the Saint Paul
Charter Commission at a duly called special meeting on Friday,
October 17, 196g. This amendment was adopted at the unanimous
request of the Mayor and the City Council in an effort to meet
the financial needs of the City as outlined by testimony at
public hearings and from the Mayor and Council which indicate
a financial emergency in 1970.
The Commission recognizes that in order to meet the
financial emergency detailed by such testimony, any charter
amendment must be approved and implemented in the year 1969,
if the revenue provided is to be available in time to restore
proposed cuts in the 1970 Budget. There has been no opportun-
ity to explore all possible Charter approaches to the City
revenue problem and, therefore , no effort on the part of the
Charter Commission to meet any more than the anticipated emer-
gency for 1970 and 1971.
The Charter Commission believes it is the responsibility
of the Mayor and the Council to work out in advance of the elec-
tion details of an income tax ordinance and the uses to which
the revenue from such an ordinance will be put. The Charter
Commission further believes it is the responsibility of the
Mayor and the City Council to info rm the voters of the need
for the revenue to be derived by this amendment and the tax
permitted under it .
Respectfully submitted,
� � , �����
a;�
ohn F. Whitcomb, Chairman
Saint Paul Charter Commission
� � . , .
The St. Paul Charter is amended by adding a new section
after Section 201 . 2 to read as follows :
Section 201.2a. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 201. 2, the Council is hereby authorized to provide
by ordinance for the levy and collection of an income tax for
the years 1970 and 1971 whi_ch shall be a surtax in an amount
not to exceed 10�0 of the income taY paid by a ;axpayer to
the State of Minnesota and which tax shall be collected by
the State Tax Department for the City pursuant to a joint
powers agreement between ttie State and the City under Minnesota
Statutes 1967 , Section 471 . 59, as amended, which agreement
shall be in form acceptable �o tlie Commis sioner of Taxation
of the State of Minnesota. Any such ordinance shall not be
subject to referendum. Said amendment shall become effective
upon approval by 51% of those voting on the issue .
