<br />Attorney Goodrich stated he would get information on that and report back to the <br />Council. <br /> <br />Councilmember Look inquired if the Council could make this appointment and if there is <br />no grandfathering clause, then make a different appointment at that time to which Mr. <br />Goodrich replied that is possible. <br /> <br />Councilmember Dehen inquired what is the impact on potential conflict to which <br />Councilmember Look stated he did not have answers for that. Attorney Goodrich stated <br />he would report back on that also. <br /> <br />Councilmember Jeffrey stated, with regard to the EDA, he is fine with two members but <br />he really thought the vacant seat would be filled by the current alternate and someone <br />new would be appointed as alternate. He stated he would like to discuss the opportunity <br />to be a member to the EDA and have Councilmember Look serve as the alternate. <br /> <br />. Mayor Ramsey stated that the EDA is a different type of appointment. As a body, the <br />Council chooses each of the Councilmembers to serve on these committees. According <br />to State Statutes, the EDA is different. The Mayor makes his appointment and it is <br />ratified by the City Council. <br /> <br />Attorney Goodrich replied that is correct. <br /> <br />Mayor Ramsey continued that he thought it was best to have an at-large Councilmember <br />serve on the EDA. He felt it best to select someone who has the same spending <br />philosophy as Councilmember Jeffrey and Councilmember Look is an at-large <br />Councilmember. <br /> <br />Councilmember Jeffrey stated that he disagrees that Mayor Ramsey was basing it on the <br />philosophy of spending as he (Ramsey) had already made his decision when they spoke <br />earlier about appointments. <br /> <br />Councilmember Dehen stated that he, too, had expressed interest in an appointment to the <br />EDA. <br /> <br />Motion by Mayor Ramsey, seconded by Councilmember Look to adopt Resolution #09- <br />01-113 for 2009 Council Organization, with the understanding that the appointment to <br />the LRRWMO is subject to legal opinion. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Ramsey, Councilmembers Look, McGlone and <br />Wise. Voting No: Councilmembers Dehen and Jeffrey (stated his reasons for opposition <br />were noted). Absent: Councilmember Elvig. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Look and seconded by Mayor Ramsey to adopt Resolution <br />#09-01-114 designating financial institutions as official depositories of City funds for <br />2009. <br /> <br />City Council/January 13,.2009 <br />Page 19 of31 <br />
