APPROVAL OF JANUARY 31, 2025 MINUTES
Motion (Allendorf/Christensen) to approve the minutes from the January 31, 2025 meeting. Motion
carried, all voting aye (2-0).
DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF CHAPTER 31 OF THE MUNICIPAL ORDINANCE.
Chapter 31 is the “City Officials” section of the ordinance. This identifies those who are appointed and
not appointed.
The City’s attorney was consulted on which City officials were required to be appointed. The Street
Foreperson and Deputy Water & Sewer Superintedent are not required to be appointed and are not
addressed in the City’s ordinances. The Assistant Clerk-Treasurer and Water & Sewer Superintendent
were established as appointed positions through a charter ordinance. The zoning administrator, building
inspector, and City foresters do not need to be appointed by state law, however it makes sense for them
to be with their powers.
Motion (Christensen/Allendorf) to recommend Ordinance Committee review and approval of
modifying Chapter 31 of the Municipal Ordinance as presented. Motion carried, all voting aye (2-0).
DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF DRAFT RESOLUTION AMENDING CITY OF MINERAL POINT
EMPLOYEE VACATION SCHEDULES.
Administrator Honer stated that the language will be cleaned up in Section 1. Instead of stating “After 1
year”, the resolution will read “Year 1”, and continue that way through the table.
Some considerations not discussed previously are that there were 5-6 employees hired between 2020-
2023 that were given credit for vacation. The current resolution removes their credit. No employee will
lose vacation, and each employee will get closer to earning more vacation, with the exception of the 2
employees who are already past the 10 year mark.
