Call to Order The meeting was called to order by Acting Chairperson Mr. Landis at 6:35 PM Members Present: Commissioners Landis, Van Der Werf, Schueller and Schulz. Members Absent: Chairperson Newman (excused), Commissioner Kragness (excused), Council Liaison Lawrence-Anderson (excused). Staff present was Finance Director Reinhardt. 2. Adoption of the Agenda Mr. Landis moved adoption of the June 19th, 2014 agenda. Mr. Schueller seconded the motion. With all in favor, the agenda was adopted. 3. Minutes Mr. Schueller moved adoption of the minutes from the January 16, 2014 meeting. With no objection, the motion was adopted. 4. Mayor and City Council Compensation for 2015-2016 Mr. Reinhardt reviewed the City Council policy that every two years it is the responsibility of the Financial Commission to review the City Council’s compensation and recommend a compensation level for the upcoming two years. Comparison of compensation from communities identified in the policy was provided along with financial implications of various levels of compensation increases. Written comments provided by Commissioner Newman were read, which supported no adjustment for the next two years based on the current compensation of 10% above the averages provided. The Financial Commission discussed what the appropriate level of compensation compared to other communities should be. Commissioner Van Der Werf inquired whether the Commission believed we should authorize additional compensation to reimburse technology expenses that were necessary for the City Council to complete their duties as Councilmembers. The Financial Commission expressed their appreciation for all the efforts and the amount of time commitment of the City Council and recognized that they are valued members of the community. However, because of the continued slow growth of the economy they questioned how an increase would reflect on the citizens of the 2 community. The Financial Commission also cited the relative position in the 10 city comparison of mayor and city council wages as the rationale for their recommendation. Commissioner Van Der Werf moved adoption of a 0% increase for the next two years. Mr. Schueller seconded the motion. With all in favor, the motion was adopted. The Financial Commission noted that their recommendation was not performance based. 5. RFP for Audit Services Mr. Reinhardt reviewed updates to the RFP for Auditing Services that included the additional of requesting proposals for the Fire Relief and discussed the schedule for the process. 6. Future Meeting Dates Commissioners were made aware of the joint budget meeting dates with City Council. The first joint work session will be held on Monday, July 7, 2014 beginning at 6:30 PM in the City Council Chambers. 7. Feedback on Work Session w/Auditor on 2013 Audit Commissioners discussed the auditor’s presentation from June 3, 2014. The Financial Commission discussed the declining use of the golf course and discussed potentially adding the topic to a future meeting to further explore options relating to the golf course.

However, cost adjustments will be permitted when an increase becomes necessary due to the increased cost of items outside of the bank’s control. Any such cost adjustments must be documented, justified, and accepted by the City before such costs are implemented. The City and the successful institution shall renegotiate the fees to be charged after the initial three (3) year period for the next one (1) year period, and annually thereafter, for the remainder of the agreement period. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the ability of the parties to terminate the agreement at earlier dates as hereinafter provided. d. Termination 4 Termination for Cause The City may terminate this agreement, or any part of this agreement, for cause under any one of the following circumstances: (a) The bank fails to make delivery of services as specified in this agreement; or (b) The bank fails to perform any of the provisions of this agreement, fails to perform in a professionally acceptable manner, or fails to timely perform as to endanger the ability of the City to perform its duties. The City shall provide the bank with written notice of the conditions endangering performance. If the bank fails to remedy the conditions within ten (10) days from the receipt of the notice (or such longer period as may be authorized in writing), the City shall issue the bank an order to stop work immediately. Notice is effective upon mailing, postage prepaid and properly addressed or upon personal service to the bank. In the event the City believes that the assets of the City are in jeopardy, or there is a bona fide emergency related to these assets, the City can cancel the agreement immediately or upon such notice as is reasonable. Termination for Convenience The City may terminate performance of work under this agreement in whole or in part whenever, for any reason, if the City shall determine that the termination is in the best interest of the City. In the event that the City elects to terminate this agreement, in whole or in part pursuant to this provision, it shall provide the bank written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the termination date. The termination shall be effective as of the date specified in the notice. The bank shall continue to perform any part of the work that may have not been terminated by the notice.
