City Clerk Thieling stated that the last item would be the renewal of the contract with TimeSaver <br />Off -Site Secretarial Services. <br />Mayor LeTourneau confirmed the consensus of the Council to continue with TimeSaver as <br />proposed. <br />2.02: Discuss 2019 Legislative Platform <br />City Administrator Ulrich reviewed the staff report. <br />Councilmember Kuzma stated that he does not like the language stating that the City would want <br />to remove the outdated printed publication language. He stated that he would support the use of <br />digital publication in addition to printed publication. <br />Councilmember Heinrich stated that she would be in support of that request as the elderly <br />residents are not on the internet and get their news from printed publications. <br />Councilmember Shryock stated that perhaps the last sentence be changed to state, "modify the <br />requirements for communication processes." <br />Councilmember Riley stated that this language simply states that cities should have the authority <br />to determine if web publications should supplement or replace printed publications. He stated <br />that this legislation would just give cities the option and each city would still make its own <br />determination and therefore he would support the language as written. He stated that the <br />outdated language is related to the requirement. <br />Mayor LeTourneau agreed that the City would still have the option to do one or both. <br />Mayor LeTourneau confirmed the consensus of the Council to modify the language as discussed. <br />Councilmember Riley believed that this year would be a good year to push for the City to have <br />its own zip code. He stated that a very different group decided the City's position on the Met <br />Council and therefore perhaps that topic should be revisited in the future. <br />Councilmember Shryock agreed that the topic should be revisited, and the City should take a <br />stance one way or the other. She stated that there are other communities that may have similar <br />feelings and there could be power in numbers to enact a change. <br />Mayor LeTourneau agreed that it would make sense to hold that discussion at a future <br />worksession perhaps inviting someone from the Metropolitan Council. <br />City Administrator Ulrich noted that Anoka County would also be good to invite to that <br />worksession. <br />City Council Work Session / January 8, 2019 <br />Page 6 of 8 <br />
