depository. The City has maintained a good working relationship with the Bank and recommends
that they be designated as the official depository.
It should be noted that the official depository designation represents the City's designation of the
' institution whereat all receipts are deposited/checks drawn upon/other banking business
transacted.
' The City has maintained a policy of investing in other institutions recognized under state statute
for investment purposes. In addition to the institution meeting qualifications of statutes, only
certain types of investments can be made through these institutions, i.e. CDs properly
' collateralized, federal obligations, recognized REPOs, etc. It is simply sound fiscal management
to ensure that we maintain the highest yield possible on these types of transactions. The Council
will be asked to consider a resolution containing wordage recognizing the City's intent to
maximize investment earnings through competitive bids at a future date.
Given the size of the city's account and the possibility of both Jean Meuwissen and I being out
of the office at the same time, I would recommend that we add Betty Eidam, Account
Clerk/Deputy Treasurer to the list of authorized signatures for city checks. The Bank has also
requested that the city sign a Hold Harmless Agreement in recognition of our use of a facsimile
signature for the Mayor. [Note: Either Jean's or my personal signature is also required.] Roger
Knutson has reviewed the hold harmless wordage and finds it acceptable. Approval is
recommended.
' d. City Attorne It is the recommendation of this office that the firm of Campbell,
v v p ,
' Knutson, Scott and Fuchs be reappointed as City Attorney. .
e. Bond Consultant This office would recommend reappointing Springsted as the Bond
' Consultant for the City.
L Acting Mayor Rules of Procedure (Section 1.04) requires the City Council to name
an Acting Mayor during the disability or absence of the Mayor. There are no state or local laws
governing the designation, i.e. nomination may occur by any member of the Council or by the
Mayor. A 3 /5ths majority vote is required. This is solely a Council decision.
' g. Weed Inspector Under state law, the Mayor is officially the Weed Inspector for the
city. I would recommend that the Public Safety Officer Bob Zydowsky be appointed the Deputy
' Weed Inspector.
h. Fire Chief The Fire Chief's position is a two year term. In December 1993, Jim
McMahon was re- elected to a new two year term by the Fire Department. Approval of his
designation as Fire Chief is recommended.

i. Health Officer I have been unable to reach Dr. McCollum to find out if he is willing
to accept designation as the city's Health Officer for 1994. I have written him a letter and hope '
to have a response from him before Monday evening's meeting.
j. City Auditors 1994 is the last year of the three -year contract entered into between the ,
city and Deloitte- Touche. In fact, it is'the end of the second three -year contract. If the council
acts to reappoint Deloitte, you should also authorize staff to begin negotiating a new three year
contract. By contrast, you could also ask staff to prepare specifications/seek proposals for this ,
service. This is an extensive process typically requiring a 6 month time frame from start to
finish with a minimum of 50 -100 hours of staff time required. The council has typically
interviewed the three finalist (2 -3 hour time commitment). '

Dear Mayor Chmiel,

Please consider our request for appointment of the Chanhassen Villager as the official newspaper for

Legal notices published in the Chanhassen Villager during this time period will be billed at the rate of
$6.89 per column inch. A complete guide outlining our procedures and rate structure, as well as a copy
of our certification from the Secretary of State's office which enables us to publish legal notices, is also

Thank you for the opportunity to be of service to you in the past. We hope that relationship can be

Sincerely,

INFORMATION FOR GOVERNMENTAL BODIES AND
INDIVIDUALS USING THE LEGAL NOTICES
SECTION OF THE CHANHASSEN VILLAGER
Deadlines
Notices to be published must be received in the office of the Chanhassen Villager by noon on Friday
preceding each publication date. This deadline must be observed to ensure accurate and timely publication
of important notices.
Affidavits
One sworn affidavit of publication will be provided, upon request, without charge for each legal notice.
Additional affidavits are available at $3.50 each. Additional clippings are available for $1.00 each.
Late Fee
Urgent legal notices which do not arrive at the Chanhassen Villager office before the specified deadline
may be accepted, at the publisher's discretion, but will have a late fee or surcharge of 25 percent added for
special handling.
Publication Requirements
Most specifications for legal notice publication, including the number of times a notice is to run, are setforth
by statute. Interpretation of the statutes is the responsibility of the customer and its legal counsel, not the
publisher. Guidelines for governmental bodies, prepared by the Minnesota Newspaper Association, are
available upon request.
Kill Fee
Publication of scheduled notices may be stopped, depending on how far the printing process has advanced.
If a legal notice is killed before the initial publication date, the customer may still be liable for a special
typesetting fee, not to exceed 30 percent of the cost of the published notice. The customer must pay on a
pro data basis, for that part of a series of publications that have been completed before interruption by the
customer.
Errors
Publisher assumes no responsibility for errors in typesetting or scheduling of legal notices. In all cases,
publisher's liability shall be limited to a "make good" of a defective notice if it can be demonstrated that the
error was made by the publisher and that as a result of the error the legal notice was rendered invalid.
Rates
Effective January 1, 1985, the Minnesota State Legislature authorized legal newspapers to charge for legal
notices in the same manner in which they charge their best commercial display classified customers. That
means that legal notices are billed by the column inch, not by the "legal line:' The law also restricts rate
increases exceeding 10 percent per annum.
