ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE
June 5, 2001
Meeting called to order at 9:00 A.M. by Chair Bieraugel.
Members Present: Nancy Bieraugel, Linda Luckey, Tom O'Connell and Daryl Standafer.
Gerald Peterson, absent.
Others Present: Administrative Coordinator Chuck Whiting and Supr. Jack Dowd. Corporation
Counsel Greg Timmerman and County Clerk Sue Nelson were present later in the meeting.
Date of Next Meeting: Tuesday, July 3, 2001
Agenda was adopted as published.
Adoption of Minutes: Motion by O'Connell, 2nd by Bieraugel to adopt the April 3 Legislative
Breakfast Minutes. Carried.
Motion by O'Connell, 2nd by Standafer to adopt the May 1 St minutes. Carried.
Rules and By -Laws: The unresolved issue of "Unofficial" minutes being available to the
public was discussed at great length. The consensus was that unapproved minutes should not be
on the Internet until the parent committee approves them. County Board minutes would also be
affected by this change to the rules and by -laws.
Training for all recording secretaries would help create uniform and consistent formatting of all
St. Croix County committee meeting minutes. Sue Nelson will report on training options at the
July 3 meeting.
Motion by Bieraugel, 2nd by O'Connell to have Corporation Counsel draft a resolution changing
the rules and by -laws to read no unofficial minutes will be distributed until they are approved by
the committee. (Page 4, Section B). Carried.
Motion by Bieraugel, 2nd by Luckey to also include County Board minutes in the change. (Page
9). Carried.
Administration Committee needs a recommendation from the Emergency Communication/
Government Committee to change the rules and by -laws showing the merge of the two
committees. Pages 20 and 21.
Legislative Issues: The State budget decisions are coming in late. A late budget settlement is
expected. Counties will have to make projections without solid dollar amounts from the State.
Redistricting: The, process is moving along very smoothly. Another 1 or 2 public hearings will
be scheduled before the final redistricting plan is presented to the County Board in October for
their approval.
Committee Structure: The idea of a temporary budget committee, consisting of chairs from
various committees, to handle the actual budget process was briefly discussed. This would
leave the Finance Committee to administer the funds as directed. Further discussion at next
meeting.
Internal Operations Policy: Chuck Whiting is working on a policy list. We will tackle one
item at a time. Supr. O'Connell asked that we consider a policy on leasing County properties. It
will take time to coordinate and collect necessary information. It is going to be a lengthy
process.
Motion by Luckey, 2nd by Standafer to adjourn at 10:53 A. M.
