ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 26, 1990 <br />• HIGHWAY 12 CORRIDOR CONTINUED <br />was able to stop Highway 12 for many years. However, the law was <br />changed so that cities could no longer have the ability to block <br />a corridor." <br />Mr. Gabriel Jabbour stated that he would be unable to attend <br />they December 1, 1990 meeting. Tie said, "There are two issues <br />that I would like Council to specifically address. One is the <br />traffic counts. I am concerned about the numbers that are being <br />projected and question from where the data comes. My other <br />question is whether or not it may be appropriate to notify Long <br />Lake of our December 1, 1990 meeting." <br />Acting Mayor Callahan stated that notifying the City of Long <br />7,ake is a good idea. He said, "With regard to the traffic count <br />information, the City Administrator can ask MNDO�T for the name of <br />the person responsible and he /she can explain how the information <br />is determined." <br />Ms. Bc!hrman said, "One last note. At the Maple Plain <br />meeting we were told that the five routes can be altered to <br />reflect necessary changes. They may combine portions. of the <br />corridors shown. MNDOT is looking for good alternatives to what <br />they have presented." <br />STRATEGIC PLANNING <br />• Bernhardson presented information to Council regarding the <br />1991 strategic planning session. <br />Council accepted the information presented. <br />LEGAL NOTIFICATION <br />Bernhardson presented information to Council regarding <br />alternative methods for notification of legal actions in the <br />City. <br />Acting Mayor Callahan asked City Attorney Barrett for his <br />opinion of notification. <br />Barrett said, "The process proposed may reduce some risk, to <br />the extent there is any comment on the lawsuits beyond just the <br />fact of Summons and Complaint, which I do not think is <br />privileged. if there is any comment, that may be better <br />controlled. I would just send copies of the sammons and <br />complaint directly to the Council individually." <br />The Council indicated no objections to the proposed <br />notification procedure, and it was the consensus of Council to <br />proceed with the recommendations of the City Administrator and <br />City Attorney. <br />• _9_ <br />
