6. COMMISSION/STAFF INPUT <br /> 6.1 Other <br /> No comments. <br /> 7. ADJOURNMENT <br /> Motion by Commissioner Deemer, seconded by Commissioner Bendsten, to adjourn the meeting. <br /> Motion carried. <br /> Further discussion: Commissioner Anderson noted that the Commission typically has a letter <br /> summarizing the activity of the year. Administrative Services Director Lasher noted that this is <br /> the one meeting for 2021, so staff can now draft the letter which will be presented to the <br /> Commission at its next meeting. She confirmed that there is not a deadline for the submission of <br /> the letter,and it can continue into the next year. Chair Field stated that in the August 2020 minutes <br /> it was noted that the Commission approved the 2019 letter. He stated that it would appear the <br /> Commission is delinquent in presenting a 2020 letter. Commissioner Anderson asked if there <br /> would be interest in having a youth member. City Attorney Knaak stated that a member would <br /> need to be of voting age. Administrative Services Director Lasher confirmed that she missed the <br /> letter for 2020. She stated that she can contact the Judge and ask for input on how that could be <br /> remedied. Chair Field stated that if another meeting is necessary to adopt the letter, perhaps that <br /> be done virtually. Commissioner Fuhreck stated that if the Judge is lenient perhaps the letter could <br /> be approved for 2020 along with the 2021 letter in January along with review of potential language <br /> for Section 4.4. City Administrator Ulrich noted that the City is no longer operating under <br /> emergency order and therefore a virtual meeting is not an option. City Administrator Ulrich asked <br /> if the Commission could direct staff draft and submit a letter for 2020 based on the minutes of the <br /> August 27, 2020 meeting. Administrative Service Director Lasher suggested having a motion <br /> contingent upon what is allowed under State law. Chair Field stated that he would support that <br /> and direct staff to submit the letter to the Commission members electronically to review. He noted <br /> that if the language is objected to, a meeting could be held. Administrative Services Director <br /> Lasher stated that she will prepare the 2020 letter and could also prepare the 2021 letter in the <br /> same manner. <br /> Voting Yes: Chairperson Fields, Commissioners Anderson,Bendtsen,Deemer,Fuhreck, Leistico, <br /> and Moore.
