Councilmember Waldron
declared a conflict of interest and left the council chamber.
City Clerk Kathleen Connelly
briefed the council on the item.
Councilmember Barker
commented she thought that when they talked about this earlier
they were going to defer filling this one until there was
another vacancy.

Vice Mayor Dietz commented he
did not remember that . He did not see why they would wait until
there were two vacancies.
Councilmember Barker
commented she must have been mistaken.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented he
thought they were going to wait until they had their discussion
and looked into the different things that were brought up.
Mayor Insalaco commented he
thought the last two positions that were filled would be right
in line. He has not been happy with the service they have
given.
City Attorney Joel Stern
stated he believed there was a discussion about the council
wanting to assess some type of criteria for this board. They
also directed the city manager and him to meet with the sewer
board. There were some other issues that are not on the agenda
tonight .
Councilmember Serdy commented
they have the leadership institute that trains people on hors the
city is run. He suggested having a mini-institute on board
training and what is expected out of each board or commission.
They could have it once a year if someone is interested in oeing
on a board and how it would be good if they had these
qualifications . It would give them a chance to study and
prepare themselves better. They might not want to be on that
board if they have to do certain things.
City Attorney Joel Stern
commented after they select individuals he typically meets with
them on open meeting law, public records acts and other case law
involving municipalities. Usually it is within one or two
months after they are on the board. He has done it with
planning and zoning members, board of adjustment, library and he
was invited to the parks and recreation commission to do a
little session .

Councilmember Barker
commented he has not done the sewer board.
City Attorney Joel Stern
stated he has not because that is a different entity and they
have a separate attorney.
Councilmember Barker
commented therein lies the whole rub. That is the problem.
ems
Councilmember Serdy commented
the city has to do it before they turn them over to the sewer
district .
Mayor Insalaco commented the
council has the duty of presenting somebody to the board and
nominating somebody to the board and that is as far as it goes .
They hope to get somebody that will do the job but when they get
there it seems they are being managed instead of managing.
Vice Mayor Dietz asked if
they have an orientation for the new board members .
City Manager George Hoffman
stated he does not know.
Vice Mayor Dietz asked if Ed
said anything about having an orientation for them during their
discussion. He agreed with the mayor that the council appoints
but they are directed by their director.
Councilmember Wilson
commented he thought they were supposed to give us some ems
information on their procedures and what they are doing.
City Attorney Joel Stern
stated they are He talked to Mr. Gregor the other day and he
has received some information that he is going through. He
hopes to have responses on those other issues soon. He did not
say when, but knowing him it should be fairly soon. He acts
pretty quickly.
REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL
SEPTEMBER 18, 2012
PAGE 6 OF 11
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
they had discussed possibly having their board members or chair
building up some criteria on what they are looking for so that
the council would have more of an idea on who they would be
interested in . If they are in the process of doing that, he
would much rather wait and have that information before they
appoint anyone. The council will at least have something in
mind of what they are looking for.
/11% Councilmember Wilson asked if
they would be putting out a request for people to come forward
before they appoint someone.
Mayor Insalaco commented they
have not done that vet .
Councilmember Wilson
commented the council needs to find out their desires.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented if
the council has that information from them on what kind of
characteristics and what they are looking for the city can out
that in with the advertising for the position.
Mayor Insalaco commented if
the council leaves it up to them, they will be putting someone
on that they want. The council is trying to get somebody to
control the situation and not be run by the district.
City Attorney Joel Stern
commented they had some brief conversations in the meeting with
Mr. Grabek regarding qualifications . They did not get to the
type of qualifications . He does not believe that was one of the
questions on the list .
Mayor Insalaco commented he
thinks they need to do that .
City Attorney Joel Stern
stated they can send that to him and ask for that information if
you would like their input on the type of qualifications they
would like.

Vice Mayor Dietz commented he
thinks they should have that information before they go any
further.
Councilmember Barker
commented one of the things that Mr. Stern referenced in his
notes from their last meeting was that Mr. Grabek felt that the
council did not have an appropriate understanding of what the
sewer district does . The council needs that in order to appoint
an appropriate board member. The council needs to have the
understanding he feels we lack.
City Attorney Joel Stern
stated he believed when he said that he added he would like to
make a presentation to the council with himself, the attorney or
even the chair person. He believes that is where he was going
with that information. He also wants to give the council the
reports from each month.
Councilmember Barker
commented she would like to see that presentation before the
council determines any criteria. She does not feel like she is
in a position to know their needs as well as she should in order
to appoint someone for that board.
Vice Mayor Dietz commented
they would be a lot more informed after receiving that
information.
City Attorney Joel Stern
stated he can communicate that to Mr. Gregor.
Mayor Insalaco closed the
discussion with no further comments and called for a motion.
Councilmember Barker asked if
the direction to staff needs to be the city attorney
communicating that information to the district manager and await
his answer.
Vice Mayor Dietz

Dear Mr Stem.
The following is the district's response to the questions you posed in your e-mail of
September 20, 2012.
1. Qualifications for district directors.
Response.
The district recommends that a board member have some business
background, preferably have run a business, have good common sense; and be
a customer of the district A board member should understand the community �•.
and be familiar with how government operates. A board member should be a
leader In that regard having the city's leadership training would be very
useful
The district recommends that potential board members be vetted
They should submit resumes Their references should be contacted.
Background checks should be done. Those being considered for appointment
to the board should be informed about the district, its facilities, how the
district operates, its finances, and the role of a director in the life of the
district
2. Communication between the district and the city council;

To improve communication with the city and enhance the council
members' understanding of the district, the district proposes that council
members tour the district's wastewater treatment facilities During a tour, the
district staff would be available to explain how the facility operates and
answer any questions about the district. The district changed the day of its
regular meeting so council members could attend the meeting The District
Manager can present the district's proposed budget and proposed rates, fees,
and charges to the council in May or June of each year.
The district will provide the members of the council with the minutes of
the district's meetings, the district's Monthly Disclosure Report on Operations,
and the district's Administrative Status Report.
Very truly yours,
