solution.
Frank Lorenz, 7151 York Avenue South, Unit 720, shared comments regarding the City's claims register for
items such as the Metropolitan Council water and sewer charges, League of Minnesota Cities Insurance
Trust, and mattress for the Fire Captain's office and requested better transparency in City expenses,
including Council and staff travel expenses.
David Frankel, Edina, shared information about the Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act and requested
a commemoration occur at Edina Veterans Park in recognition of National Vietnam Veterans Day on March

running in order to allow others to be elected.
Manager Neal replied that staff was working with Ms.Joas to address the water pooling concerns after the
ground thaws and explained how the City was a member of the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust
that lowered insurance coverage costs. He clarified the Metropolitan Council's fee structure to connect
residents to the City's water infrastructure and explained the City's accounts payable system was

rebates.
