SUBJECT: Special City Council meeting needed to canvass the results of the
Municipal General Election
The City Council is required to canvass the vote and declare the results of the Municipal
General Election for the offices of:
■ Councilmember Section II
■ Councilmember Ward 1
■ Councilmember Ward 2
M.S. §205.185, subd. 3(a) requires the canvass to be conducted between the third and
tenth days after an election. Staff is proposing to conduct the special meeting on Friday,
November 7 at 5:00 p.m. We believe this time to be most cost-effective and efficient to
meet the canvass requirements.
The Council should discuss scheduling a meeting on Friday, November 7 to canvass the
results of the Municipal General Election.
Memorandum
CITY of
CRYSTAL
DATE: October 1, 2014
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Anne Norris, City Manager
SUBJECT: Closing City Hall on December 24
City offices (except Police) are closed on December 25 in observance of the Christmas
holiday. While city offices are open on December 24, there are very few calls from
residents or businesses and even fewer walk-in customers.
Employees would appreciate the Council considering closing city offices on December
24. If city buildings were closed on Wednesday, December 24, employees would have
the option of using vacation, comp time, a day without pay or working that day.
The Council should discuss whether to close city offices on Wednesday, December 24.
