She stated there was discussion about the membership and professional development, <br />seven, eight and nine, and having a dollar amount included. She asked, based on the comments <br />she got back, what the thought process was about not including that, if there was some limiting <br />factor. City Attorney Knaak replied it was Council approval. Councilmember Musgrove asked if <br />it is the case that every time Mr. Hagen wants something he would bring it forward to the Council. <br />City Attorney Knaak replied the number would be something Council would approve. Interim <br />City Administrator/Community Dev. Director Hagen asked if he should bring up trainings or <br />things during budgeting. Administrative Services Director Lasher replied previously the City <br />Administrator would determine what he needed to do for training and it would be included in the <br />annual budget as part of the normal budget process. City Attorney Knaak added the point is that <br />Council would review it. Councilmember Musgrove commented Mr. Hagen would have to put <br />that forward soon for the budget discussions. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
