RECOMMENDATION:
This space on the agenda is reserved for the Mayor and Council to
discuss and consider the logo recently approved by the Joint Powers Water Board for the west
tower:
MOTION:
Directing Albertville appointed JPWB members to support calling a Special Water
th
Board meeting to discuss the West Tower logo, rescind the August 27 motion, and consider
other options with the preferred Albertville option being that of ______________.
th
BACKGROUND:
At the August 27 JPWB meeting, the Board moved to approve a logo
similar to that shown below, as part of the west tower painting project.
Albertville – Hanover –
St. Michael
This was a 3 to 2 vote favored by Hanover members and one St. Michael board member (one
Albertville board member was absent due to a family emergency). It has been brought to staff’s
attention that this may not be the preferred logo for this site. As a result, this topic is being
th
brought back to the city councils for further discussions. At their August 27 meeting, the
consensus of the St. Michael Council was for the logo to be that of the “Home of the Knights”.
KEY ISSUES:
Time is of the essence as the project in currently underway.
Original staff recommendation was to use a “Home of the Knights” logo.
The project plans and bid for the project included a “St. Michael – Albertville Home of the
Knights” logo (option #1)
It was the consensus in years past to use the “Home of the Knights” logo on the two towers
adjacent to the schools, and a Hanover related logo when the third tower is constructed at the
Wellhouse 9 site in the future.
To change the motion, a special meeting of the JPWB would need to be called and a motion
to rescind would require four (4) votes to pass.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS:
Costs associated with the logo are paid through the water
board’s project budget.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS:
(none at this time)
