Mozelle Bielski Sid Dulle

Donna White, term to end 6-96
Councilman Nilges stated he was uncomfortable approving Ms. White's appointment
based on her Intention to run for Council again in the future, thus necessitating her
resignation from the Cable Quality Commission once again. Councilman Halsey stated
he also did not support the appointment because Ms. White is a Republican who had
run against Councilman Green In the primaries. Mayor Gardner reminded Council that
she does not ask political affiliation for any board or commission except for the Police
Personnel Board. She stated she would not ask for approval of this appointment
tonight, but would ask that it be reconsidered at the next Council meeting.

correspondence which was addressed to the Mayor and included in the Council packet.
Mayor Gardner stated It would be appropriate to address Mr. Nllges's concern at this
time In the meeting. Councilman Nilges mentioned a letter addressed to Mayor
Gardner from Senator Lary Rohrbach regarding her letter In opposition to SB 711,
Public Employee Collective Bargaining. City Administrator Dave Johnston stated that
the stance on collective bargaining was an Issue the Missouri Municipal League has
op sod, and that the letter to Senator Rohrbach was written by himself, and that the
letter should have been copied to the Council. Councilman Nilges asked that In the
future if any stance is taken by the City, the Council should at least be allowed the
courtesy of being informed what position they are going to take on an issue. City
Administrator Dave Johnston agreed with Councilman Nilges.
MClo,r Gardner brought to the Council's attention the copy of the letter from city officials
in Japan, regarding their gifts to Jefferson City during the flood of 1993.

WN W—T.
Councilman Halsey stated he was disturbed that through the news media he learned of
the concern of some department heads about the recent Issue surrounding City
Counselor Allen Garner and certain flood buyout issues. He expressed his hope that a
better method of Informing the Council of such matters than their learning It through the
media, and that it would be preferable for them to be handled In-house rather than In
the media. Councilman Halsey requested that part of the Issues be discussed in open
meeting before going into Executive Session. Councilman Wrigley stated his concern
that the Council was *on thin Ice" by even discussing any portion of this Issue in open
session, and based on his experience In labor law, that he very strongly urged that this
Issue be taken up In closed session. After further discussion, Mayor Gardner
entertained a motion to go into Executive Session to discuss real estate as provided In
RSMo 610.025(1), and to discuss personnel as provided In RSMo 610.025(3).
Councilman Wrigley so moved, second by Councilman Haake. Councilman Green
stated that he would like to discuss the computer acquisition details of this Issue In
open meeting and felt the Council could stay on that specific topic. Councilman
Bernskoetter did not feel that, based on prior experience with Council discussions, that
would not happen. The motion was approved by the following vote at 9:10 P.M.
Aye: Bernskoetter, Benton, Bartel, Byrd, Estes-Benward, Haake, Nilges and
Wrigley
