Councilmember Woestehoff asked how the case got on the agenda at the next meeting. Councilmember Howell replied that was not the same case. She stated she was very specific. Councilmember Woestehoff replied he saw what she was saying and was misunderstanding. Councilmember Howell stated she brought forward fact finding, that was not her case, but a different one. She suggested they look at the information, some of it was surprising to her, and then make decisions based on the information. She suggested taking a step back and knowing they may not agree on things, but asked that things someone else brought forward not be assigned to her because it's not helpful and ends up in the paper. She stated it is frustrating and not helpful to the City. Councilmember Woestehoff agreed. He stated most of his comments during the meeting were directed to Councilmember Musgrove. He stated Councilmember Howell happened to be sitting next to him and being combative, therefore he was talking to her. Councilmember Howell replied she didn't think she was being combative. City Attorney Knaak commented it sounds like there is something to be learned from all this in terms of what can be interpreted and what can't be interpreted. He thought it was worthwhile and they are still talking to each other, which is important. He hoped they could get past it. He asked Mayor Kuzma what else he should talk about. Mayor Kuzma replied he thought they had touched on things that were important and they could all better themselves by taking a look at some of the League information. City Attorney Knaak stated he will follow up with the email with some links. He encouraged Council to look at them because it is useful information from the League. He added, for those that might be interested,there is both an advanced and not advanced course where they get a chance to network with other City Councilmembers. Councilmember Musgrove asked if City Attorney Knaak was also going to provide a list for procedures. Councilmember Specht added the PowerPoint. City Attorney Knaak replied he will give the PowerPoint, do the presentation, or both. He stated he will send the PowerPoint and they can decide if they have heard enough on this topic or if they want more. 3.
