JEEPERS CREEPERS

The Little Falls City Council will be approving major language changes in their DATA PRACTICES POLICY AND PROCEDURE policy #74 at the Council meeting on August 18, 2014. The memo in the packet for the meeting says; This policy is adopted to comply with the Data Practices Act of Minnesota Statutes Chapter 13, section 13.03, Subdivision 2, and for the purposes of establishing guidelines and procedures for obtaining government data, and to meet the new requirements in Minnesota Statutes, Section 13.05, Subdivision 5, effective August 1, 2014 related to ensuring appropriate access to "not public"data.  As many of you know, I am known for making data requests to get at the facts, so I will be scouring this document.

Something that may interest you is that at the work session which will begin at 6 p.m. sharp, there will be an update on the Little Falls Area Recreational Complex by the public works director Greg Kimman.   There will also be discussion on COMMITTEE MEETING NOTIFICATION. That should be interesting.   I wonder which group needs prodding to follow the rules now????  Some of the city committees sure have had trouble getting it right the first time.
