MAYOR’S APPOINTMENT TO THE
LAKEVILLE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
Proposed Action
Staff recommends approval of the following motion: Approve Mayor’s appointment of John
Bermel to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Lakeville, MN
Overview
Minnesota Statute 469.003 allows council members to serve as commissioners on the City’s
Housing and Redevelopment Authority. Terms of office of a commissioner shall coincide with
the commissioner’s term of office as a Lakeville City Council member.
According to Subdivision 6 of the Statute, “The commissioners shall be appointed by the
mayor, with the approval of the governing body.”
According to the By-Laws of the Lakeville HRA, the annual meeting of the authority shall be
held during the month of January. Officers shall be elected at the annual meeting. The
annual meeting of the Lakeville HRA is scheduled to be held immediately following the
January 4th City Council meeting.
Primary Issues to Consider
Are commissioners compensated for attending HRA meetings?
MN Statute 469.011 states that each commissioner may be paid up to $75 for attending each
regular and special meeting of the authority. Lakeville commissioners receive $25 per
meeting.
