RESOLUTION NO. 92 -77
RESOLUTION EXPRESSING BROOKLYN CENTER'S POSITION ON METRO
COUNCIL REDISTRICTING
WHEREAS, the City of Brooklyn Center has had a
traditional and current working relationship on metropolitan issues
with neighboring suburbs in the northwest metropolitan area; and
WHEREAS, since its inception the Metro Council districts
representing the northwest metro area have included as one district
the northwestern suburban area; and
WHEREAS, the City of Brooklyn Center is currently
involved in joint efforts with the northwestern suburban area
municipalities and the Metropolitan Council on housing and related
issues.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the
City of Brooklyn Center that the City supports any redistricting
plan which maintains the northwest suburbs in a common Metro
Council member district and it clearly opposes separating northwest
suburbs into two or more Metro Council districts as is currently
being proposed by the Metropolitan Council.
