It is significant that during our growth over the past three or four years the emphasis has been on the professional ization of the office of Municipal Clerk. The programs and services of the IIMC have been designed to assist its members in obtaining the knowledge and in developing the skills that are needed to meet the continuing changes that are taking place in each of our communities. Our emphasis has been that the best way that IIMC can serve its members is to em- phasize that their office is indeed an important function within government and deserves the same support "and recognition given to any group of pro- fessional administrators. Our thrust has been to prepare our members for what lies ahead. The Uncertainty of the 70s In summarizing the Role of the Urban Administra- tor in the 1970s, the Academy of Political and Social Science reported: The urban administrator will be enlarging his areas of uncertainty. The areas where events and responses are more or less under his control will be diminishing correspondingly. He will face an open system with changing actors and centers of i influence. "From this perspective of their roles, these prac- titioners sense an urgent need for knowledge and CLERK skills which will let them cope more effectively with growing uncertainty. "In particular," the Academy's report continues, "They attach increasing importance to knowledge of: — Individual and group behavior — Political institutions and processes — Causes underlying major urban problems — Values motivating people in our urban population — A thorough understanding of themselves — And a deeper appreciation of social, economic, and political philosophies which have shaped .and are shaping our institutions." Municipal Clerks As Administrators The first question that arose was — were these statements applicable to the office of the munici- pal clerk? Were we truly administrators or did we perform functions that were solely "ministerial" in nature? IIMC undertook a national survey to determine exactly who we were, how we ranked ourselves pro- fessionally, and what we needed to know in order to carry out our responsibilities. To a very large extent Municipal Clerks — throughout the country and in large and small com- munities — whether they had years of experience or were fairly new to the job — viewed themselves as administrators, with the same problems, stresses, and value objectives as other high level, responsible decision- makers who must constantly deal with solving problems. Nationally, the respondents zeroed in on one area as the priority skill for the municipal clerk's position— Administrative Management. Every re- gion ranked this as the number one skill, and all states analyzed listed it in the top priority. One Municipal Clerk summed up the administra- tive skills of the office in this concise definition: "Skills in planning, organizing, scheduling and leadership; possession of good judgment and decision - making ability; a penchant for accuracy and dependability with a touch of creativity; the (Continued) THE ATTAINMENT OF PROFESSIONAL STATUS Continued virtues of confidentiality and diplomacy; and the capacity to adapt to new policies, methods, and technological improvements." Most respondents also ranked high related skills which supported the overall managerial capabili- ties desired. These included: Human Relations such as behavioral science, dealing with staff - councils - citizens, sociology, psychology; Personal and Professional Development cover- ing analytical skills, coping with stress, ethics, values and attitudes; and Interpersonal Communications including one - to -one communications, verbal communica- tions, and active listening. As Others See Us Furthermore, we found that other persons saw the office of Municipal Clerk as meeting roles that ranged far beyond the normal ministerial duties that may be narrowly defined by state law or local charter. The Institute of Public Affairs, University of Kansas, conducted an in -depth "desk watch" on six city clerks in order to find their role in local government. The survey revealed that the City Clerk was ex- pected to be the local expert in everything from utility costs to the legality of the latest zoning fracas. Not quite surprisingly, the audit of the clerk's duties found that city clerks, on the average, demonstrated expertise in 25 - 35 different func- tional areas. In addition, the survey revealed that the city clerks had a very important "political" role because they had an effect on who gets what and how. They alter existing policies; give opinions on how much "X" will cost and whether the city or village can afford "X ", advise the commission on the process they must follow based on state stat- utes and city ordinances, certify candidates for the city commission, and are therefore the primary source of information for political leaders on who has and hasn't filed. In nearby Missouri, Dr. Jerzy Hauptmann of Park College observed that the Municipal Clerk had three separate roles: The Traditional Role: That of providing the orderly transmission of knowledge and exper- ience to the local government and as the source of information to the local citizens, 2 The Professional Role: That of anticipating the needs of the office and the community by ob- taining the knowledge and obtaining the skills required to handle present and future prob- lems, and The Emerging Role: That of becoming a com- munications center which will relay the necessary data and information about the city government's operation to the city officials, the citizens, other city departments, other government units. Dr. Hauptman further suggested that the Munici- pal Clerk was becoming the symbol of the munici- pal identity amidst the changing views and person- alities of elected officials and job- switching admin- istrators. Definition of a Profession Well, the questions that we have constantly been asked — both by our members and by those out- side the field — are, "Do we have these profes- sional roles? Are we a profession ?" Before a vocation can evolve into a fully recog- nized profession, scientific principles and an underlying body of theory must be developed for that vocation. Practitioners must be capable of teaching or transferring this knowledge to those who seek to join their ranks and must also be able to devise a means of testing the extent of profic- iency in the discipline. In addition to the highly specialized knowledge peculiar to a practitioner's own calling, the pro- fessional must have his or her technical studies supported and supplemented by greater under- standing through the acquisition of general know- ledge. The total intellectual equipment of a profes- sional practitioner is multidisciplinary in nature. A true professional will have a competent grasp of the latest trends and vital principles of the field. Even so, his or, her interests must embrace all types of endeavors, for each knows that what is often classified as creative management is, in reality, the application of successful ideas across vocational lines. The development of the various Municipal Clerks Institutes have resulted in accumulation of basic knowledge which could be taught to practitioners. This development did not happen overnight nor without considerable efforts by many, many people. It began in earnest during the 60's when IIMC be- gan a program to enhance the clerk's professional - ization and to provide the educational background for them to meet the challenges of their office. The collective efforts and energies of many concerned people culminated in the formulation of the Syra- cuse Pilot Institute for Professional Clerks. The basis for the Syracuse Pilot Project is a core curriculum designed for a three -year progressive program consisting of: — Community analysis and development — Sociology and interpersonal concerns — Group dynamics and communications — Public administration and urban affairs The successful transfer of this accumulated body of knowledge took place in 1973, when a list of criteria was developed to permit other universi- ties to set up professional career development institutes if they followed the Syracuse experience. This body of knowledge was tested against the skills needed by the practitioners when IIMC under- took its educational needs assessment survey last year. We found for the most part that this know- ledge met the needs of our members. And this body of knowledge, we found, was .not restricted to detailed information relating to speci- fic tasks but also covered many areas, many con- cerns, many disciplines. Testing Our Proficiency Furthermore, the IIMC Certification program allows us the opportunity to test the extent of the proficiency of the practitioners in the state of their art. It has been recognized by our members and accepted by many local governments as a means of awarded or qualifying an individual in the pro- fession. Alvin Toffler, in Future Shock states, "In the technological systems of tomorrow — fast, fluid and self - regulating — machines will deal with the flow of physical materials: men with the flow of the information and insight." According to Toffler the technology of tomorrow requires not millions of lightly lettered individual% ready to work in unison at endlessly repetitious jobs, nor persons who take orders in unblinking fashion. It requires instead those who can make critical judgments, who can weave their way through novel environments, and who are quick to spot new relationships in the rapidly changing reality. Toffler is clear on this point. "Tomorrow's individual will have to cope with even more hectic change than we do today. For education, the les- son is clear: Its prime objective must be to increase the individual's `Cope - Ability' — the speed and economy with which he can adapt to continual change." 3 The IIMC Educational Program These concepts are embodied in the educational program of the International Institute of Municipal Clerks. This program provides perspective, infor- mation, and practical skills for greater understand- ing of those changes taking place in each commun- ity. All of this: — The recognition of the changes that are taking place in the administrations of ur- ban government. — The understanding of social and personal life style developments that affect our in- dividual lives. — The formulations of a broad range educa- tional program which can be applied inter- nationally. — And the professional recognition, through Certification, it gives to persons who took the initiative to understand the future of their profession. All of this — demonstrates that the position of Municipal Clerk is truly a Profession. It also demon- strates that it is a profession which can grow and change without the loss of its roots and traditions that extend back over 2,000 years. While the IIMC program of professional certifi- cation is making strides toward improving the pro- fession and the professional image of municipal clerks, only clerks as individuals and as a collec- tion of individuals can ultimately accomplish the upgrading in the eyes of those who count: the Municipal Clerks themselves and their bosses - the municipal managers and/or elected officials. It is up to us as practitioners to take the initia- tive, to plan our professional lives, and to help and to encourage others in our association to do the same. As we renew our never - ending journey to- wards professionalism, we join the ranks of the practitioners in other professions who lead produc- tive, highly- motivated lives committed to the maxi- mum development of their own individual human resources. IIMC Technical Bulletins are designed to provide information on specific subjects of interest in the Municipal Clerk's profession. IIMC maintains an extensive reference facility to provide its members with more detailed information on specific problems. IIMC welcomes reports, studies and additional data from municipal clerks everywhere who wish to pool their knowledge and experience with their associates.

NEWSPAPER CLIPPING B.) SUMMARY OF COVERAGES WIN FINANCE DIRECTOR The City's general liability policy covers the City for suits against the City alleging personal.injury,_bodily injury, and property damage, and specifies that it will cover all employees who are individually sued for actions arising out of their employment but excludes extension of this coverage to suits for personal and bodily injury against law enforcement officials who are individually sued. While the City will normally be sued in such actions, the chances are increasing for police officers to be sued individually as evidence by clippings in Appendix A. The City is required by State law (471.44 MS) to pay for defense of any claims against a police officer for alleged false arrest or injury to persons, property, or character if such is done in good faith and in the official performance of duties. The City may but is not required to pay for judgements against such officers. The City has three options in the matter. The City may: a.) Self insure the defense costs and handle the judgement costs on a case by case basis; b.) Self insure the defense costs and pass a resolution indicating that it will pay for any adverse judgement costs against the officers, or; c.) Purchase insurance with specified limits for the individual officers for covering their on -duty actions. (In no case would the officers be covered for actions not related to the course of assigned duties, i.e., excludes off -duty actions.) Until July 1st of last year, the City of Edina insured its individual officers through the National Sheriffs' Association with Appalachian Insur- ance Company. From July, 1976 to July, 1977, the City paid $4,200 for this insurance. Appalachian terminated its coverage with the Association as of 1 July. The Association then established the Law Enforcement Insur- ance Company to specifically handle this insurance. Since this is a newly created "offshore" company with reserves of only $120,000, the City decided not to renew "its policy and to seek other options to handle the exposure. Since then Fred Gedelman has obtained and summarized the quotations and coverages for three firms in the business of writing such insurance. (A quotation from UniMark - MacDonald under a policy that is cosponsorship by IMCA and NLC was also requested but their plan has not been approved by the State Insurance Department.) Should the City choose to utilize the insurance route, it should be recog- nized that the City itself is covered for all bodily injury and personal injury suits regardless of origin under its general liability coverage and that two of the three policies would cover both the City and individual officers. If one of.the two were selected, there would be double coverage. Fred Gedelman attempted to get some rate reduction by eliminating the double coverages on the City. There seems to be little savings if the coverage is PAGE 2 deleted from the City's general liability and no savings if eliminated from the new policies. (It may be of note that the National Sheriffs' Association insurance only covers the individual officers but their premiums are not substantially lower than the one from Drake that covers both.) As Appendix B indicates, the least expensive coverage for similar limits is National Sheriff's Association but as previously mentioned this company is not recommended. (The City paid about $4,200 for 250,000/500,000 for 1 July, 1976 to 1 July, 1977.) The second lowest would be Drake insurance and it is felt that should the Council decide to select the insurance route that it select from one of the coverages provided by Drake. As for limits, this writer does not venture a recommendation but the best buy appears to be 100,000/300,000 /500,000 for $8,708. It is recommended that the Council discusses this issue at its next meeting.

"It's hard to make sound underwriting judgments if you,can't project your exposure." So about a year ago, Appalachian told the National Sheriffs' Association that A would end its police coverage effective Oct. 31. The _association, which has offered a liability -pot_ icy program for 20 years, searched franti- tally for a new carrier for the 55,000 officers 'covered -under. its plan. .:'Six companies came - close, to signing with us and then backed out," says Ferris Lucas, executive director. ::..

'Big-city police departments like those of New York, Chicago and Los Angeles always have been shunned by insurers. These cities pay claims against officers out of city reve- nues. With the recent rise in lawsuits, that ,tactic has become costly. For example, Los Angeles in the late 1960s paid only about $27,000 a year in police-misconduct claims. In the past three years, however, the aver- age has been $873,000 a year, or about $125 for each of the city's 7,000 officers.

Lenz says,. but we've got to do something." • Hesitant Pollcemen h, The fact that a rising number of unin- sured or underinsured policemen feel like , .they are walking on eggs Isn't inconsequen. tal. "The economic threat against police- men is a growing and significant thing," contends Glenn King, executive director of the International Association of Chiefs of Po- lice. "An officer may fail to act in the public Interest if he thinks his interest and the pub-' Tic's are in conflict." u Many policemen on the street agree. "I'll feel awful edgy without insurance,' says a detective from Charlotte, N.C., where police liability coverage obtained through the Sher - Iffs Association ran out Oct. 31. "There will probably be a lot of arrests I should make that I won't because I can't afford to lose my house and car," lie says. -Because Charlotte officials haven't been able to find replacement coverage for their 660- person department at a price the city can afford, the city has decided to put some money In a special fund to pay claims against officers. "Even through the Sheriffs' Association, our premiums would increase 1500/6 over this year," says Charles Spivey, Charlotte's risk - management director. He says the city will set aside about $200,000, "so officers will be covered up to that amount. I don't feel safe with that, but We've done the best we could."

MINNESOTA 55424 . 612- 927 -6861 MEMORANDUM Date: May 16, 1978 To: John Boland Dirk DeVries Gordon Hughes Thomas Erickson Chuck Freeberg Re: Low and Moderate Income Family Development This memorandum purports to be a summary of a meeting held on May 12, 1978, in the office of John Boland, Chairman of the Metropolitan Council. In attendance were John, Dirk DeVries, Gordon Hughes (Edina's planner), Thomas Erickson (Edina's attorney), Chuck Freeberg, Chairman of the HRA and myself. Two subjects were discussed. First, we discussed the problem of Ryan Construction Company in their proposal to construct some low and moderate income family housing in the southeast section of Edina. One of the problems that we had is that Edina wanted to put a restriction on that construction to the effect that if this property were , ever sold, or in any event, that it would continue as low and moderate income homes. This was done with the idea of genuinely trying to take some of the share of this type of housing for Edina and, secondly, to make certain that once we were given credit for it in the overall scheme of things, that we would not lose it by factors over which we have no control. The Minnesota Housing Finance Agency and HUD, or both or whatever the combination might be, indicated that they had never heard of this and that they would not approve it. A concensus of opinion as stated by John Boland was to the effect that we would be encouraged to proceed with this even without that restriction, with the understanding that if it were ever changed that we had done what we could do and that was the best that could be done. In other words, we would get credit for it and the plan, and if it were later changed that that would not act to our detriment. Then we discussed with John the problem of trying to coordinate the various agencies and their orders and directives to us. The Metropolitan Council has indicated some 3,700 units must be in Edina by 1985. I indicated that this was a physical impossi- bility and that if we had to meet such a test it would mean that we had to tear down buildings and homes and rebuild to meet this requirement. We at one time had suggested that we might meet some of our commitment by trying to help restore to quality some of the lower valued homes and the incidental benefit of that would be that we would get some additional units and get some additional credit toward meeting our requirements. We were told by the Metropolitan Council that that a Memorandum 2- May 16, 1978 was not acceptable and that that method of scattered housing was not proper. Since then, we have been told by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency that they will not approve any additional units in the southeast section of Edina because they do not want them clustered. In other words, they are suggesting that these be scattered. Then, I am informed that the Human Resources Committee of the Metropolitan Council has indicated that because the cities are not building these units fast enough, that they want to get into the business and that one of the things they would want to-do would be to get into the scattered housing development. I won't comment at this time on my reaction to them getting into the business except to say that that makes the Metropolitan Council an operating agency and I do not think that is either proper or legal. We agreed the best thing to do would be to meet with the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency and the people from HUD and the Metropolitan Council to discuss the dilemma we are placed in. We agreed to attempt to set up such a meeting and to coordinate it with John Boland and Dirk DeVries so they could be present. This memorandum is an attempt to summarize our meeting so it can be a part of the record of correspondence between the Metropolitan Council and the City of Edina. This is done because when these problems surface in the future and the question of whether we have complied or tried comes, memories may be hazy or to put it another way, probably very few of the participants at that meeting will then be a part of their respective organizations. I am sending copies of this to John Boland and Dirk DeVries for their records and if they think of anything else to help clarify this, I would appreciate hearing. I might also indicate we certainly appreciate the opportunity to meet with them and their willingness to meet again with the MHFA and HUD. Yours truly, James Van Valkenburg Mayor JVV:md A MEMORANDUM TO: Director of Civil Defense, City of Edina FROM: Edward A. Beck SUBJECT: Site Survey for Warning System DATE: May 10, 1978 PURPOSE OF SURVEY: The purpose of this survey is to determine optimum siting of of a civil defense siren that would provide adequate warning to approximately 225 residences in the area east of County Road 18 and north of Braemar. This area is not covered by the siren erected last year at the corner of Valley View and Gleason Road. FACTORS BEARING ON SURVEY: By calculation, I have determined that the effective area that the proposed siren can cover is 1,000 yards. This is a conservative figure. Three sites were selected for evaluation: (1) the dead end of Overholt Pass; (2) 6625 Mohawk; and (3) Outlot A on County Road 18. At each location, the high ranger was extended to 50 feet, the approximate height of the siren installa- tion, and from that position a horizon profile was made to determine what problems would be encountered with terrain obstacles that would cause masking of the siren sound. SURVEY FINDINGS: Site (1) - Dead End of Overholt Pass. Power and telephone facilities are readily available at this site. At this site, there is potential masking from 330 through 360 degrees. Profile of this site is shown in red on the attached map. The cross -hatch area shows area of problem coverage. Site (2) - 6625 Mohawk. This location has power and telephone facilities readily available. At this location, there is potential masking due to trees from 300 through 360 degrees. The area of coverage is shown in blue on the attached map. Cross -hatch shows probable masked area. It should be pointed out that at this site the siren's location would be directly in front of a picture window of the resident at this location. The .elevation of the siren and the elevation of the house would be the same. If the siren is moved north or south on Mohawk off the selected high point, tree masking makes the site undesirable. Site (3) - Outlot A on County Road 18. Power and telephone facilities are readily available at this site. Because of the low elevation of this site, terrain obstacles would provide siren coverage as shown in green on the attached map. Covered area would be roughly from Samuel Road south to Braemar and from County Road 18 to Paiute Drive. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Recommend that the Overholt site be selected for siren installation. This site provides maximum coverage with minimum disturbance to the nearby residents. Site (2), Mohawk, although technically acceptable, would most certainly provoke the affected resident to the ultimate degree. Site (3) is the least desirable from a coverage point of view. 4A A.

At that time, staff opined that an amendment to the Planned Industrial District ordinance would be required to allow the requested use. The Community Development and Planning Commission agreed that the use of the roller skating center for disco dances might be appropriate on a trial basis prior to adoption of a permanent ordinance amendment. Subsequent to the Community Development and Planning Commission meeting, staff was advised by the City Attorney that Minnesota Statutes 624.42 - 624.54 and Ordinance Number 201 require that an annual permit must be issued by the City Council for public dance halls. This Statute and Ordinance also indicate that persons under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at such dance halls and persons between the age of 16 and 18 must have the written consent of a parent or guardian. Furthermore, an "officer of the law" must be present at all such public dances. The proponents have indicated that the proposed disco dances would-be limited to "teen agers," and older persons would not be allowed to participate. Thus, the age group which would be served by this establishment is not consistent in staff's opinion, with the intent of the Statutes and Ordinance. From the zoning standpoint, staff believes that if an ordinance amendment were adopted to allow the requested use in PID, it may then be incumbent that the Council also issue a permit to allow the dances. In the attached staff report, staff recommended against the proposed ordinance amendment for a variety of reasons. Thus, staff recommends that if the Council desires that this use should be tried on a trial basis, then a temporary permit should be issued. However,. staff would caution the Council that the proposed use appears to be in conflict with that authorized by Statute and Ordinance and enforcement problems would likely occur.

The attached letter explains their rationale for this request. The principal uses presently allowed in the PID zone include manufacturing and related uses, scientific research and investigation, offices, warehousing, handball courts, tennis clubs, and roller skating arenas. In addition, roller skating arenas must meet certain location and size requirements according to ordinance 811 -A56 (attached).

City Work 176-56 VAN ' Lflyo r y MEMORANDUM J May 12, 1978 TO: Kenneth Rosland, City Manager FROM: Gordon Hughes, City Planner SUBJECT: Request of Saints Valley View Roller Skating Center to Hold Disco Dances On April 26, 1978, the Community Development and Planning Commission reviewed the subject request. At that time, staff opined that an amendment to the Planned Industrial District ordinance would be required to allow the requested use. The Community Development and Planning Commission agreed that the use of the roller skating center for disco dances might be appropriate on a trial basis prior to adoption of a permanent ordinance amendment. Subsequent to the Community Development and Planning Commission meeting, staff was advised by the City Attorney that Minnesota Statutes 624.42 - 624.54 and Ordinance Number 201 require that an annual permit must be issued by the City Council for public dance halls. This Statute and Ordinance also indicate that persons under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at such dance halls and persons between the age of 16 and 18 must have the written consent of a parent or guardian. Furthermore, an "officer of the law" must be present at all such public dances. The proponents have indicated that the proposed disco dances would be limited to "teen agers," and older persons would not be allowed to participate. Thus, the age group which would be served by this establishment is not consistent in staff's opinion, with the intent of the Statutes and Ordinance. From the zoning standpoint, staff believes that if an ordinance amendment were adopted to allow the requested use in PID, it may then be incumbent that the Council also issue a permit to allow the dances. In the attached staff report, staff recommended against the proposed ordinance amendment for a variety of reasons. Thus, staff recommends that if the Council desires that this use should be tried on a trial basis, then a temporary permit should be issued. However, staff would caution the Council that the proposed use appears to be in conflict with that authorized by Statute and Ordinance and enforcement problems would likely occur.
