Adopt Resolution #18-152 Appointing Assistant Finance Director Angela McIntire as Alternate Director to the Local Government Information Systems (LOGIS) Board

Purpose:  To appoint Angela McIntire as Alternate Director to serve on the LOGIS Board of Directors.

Background:  The City of Ramsey has been a member of the Joint and Cooperative Agreement with Local Government Information Systems (LOGIS) at least since 1987.  The Agreement with LOGIS talks about the "Board" and membership on the Board.  The agreement defines Board as the Board of Directors of LOGIS, consisting of one director from each governmental unit which is a member of LOGIS.  Each member is entitled to one director who shall have one vote.  Each member shall also be entitled to one alternate director who shall be entitled to attend meetings of the board and who may vote in the absence of the member's director.  Directors and alternate directors shall be appointed by the Council of each City.   Directors and alternate directors shall be appointed to serve until their successors are appointed and qualified.  The director has the authority to vote on approval of the yearly LOGIS budgets and other services, contracts and assessments.  In most cities, the appointment is the IT Manager, Finance Director, or City Administrator. 
 
Currently, the City's IT Manager, Jason Fredrickson, attends all the IT meetings and has most contact and works most closely with LOGIS. In the off-chance that Mr. Fredrickson could not attend, Patrick Brama had been assigned as the Alternate Director.  With Mr. Brama's resignation, and the need for an Alternate Director to be named, the recommendation is for Angela McIntire, Assistant Finance Director.  Both Mr. Fredrickson and Ms. McIntire report to the Finance Director and the Alternate Director cannot be another IT position.

Motion to adopt Resolution #18-152 Appointing Assistant Finance Director, Angela McIntire as Alternate Director to the Local Government Information Systems (LOGIS) Board
