  • Editor's Corner November 3, 2010 by Peter Coyle
    Editor's Corner November 3, 2010 by Peter Coyle Minnesota's political landscape has been altered very dramatically based on yesterday's election results, though not exactly in the manner most pundits had expected. As of this writing, Mark Dayton holds a narrow lead (less than 1 percent) over Tom Emmer in the race for governor of Minnesota. More dramatic is the fact that Republicans handily won control of both the House and Senate in Minnesota. Republicans in the Minnesota legislature will ride a roller-coaster of emotions over the next day or two, but very quickly they will need to come to grips with the reality that while their political fortunes have changed, the dire economic conditions confronting the state and nation have not. It remains necessary to resolve a nearly $6 billion state budget deficit for the next biennium; regardless of the outcome in the governor's race, this financial quagmire will need to be resolved with no tax increases and no help from their Democrat counterparts. We will be watching very closely to see who emerges as leaders of the various party caucuses in the House and Senate; it will be especially interesting to see who emerges as chairs of the multiple committees in the House and Senate. The results in Minnesota were mirrored to a great extent by the national elections in which Republicans regained control of the House of Representatives after ceding it to the Democrats four years ago. While control of the Senate remains with the Democrats, Republicans picked up at least 6 seats.

    CITIZENS LEAGUE REPORT The Metropolitan Council: Recalibrating for the Future Prepared by Citizens League Metropolitan Council Task Force 201 5-16 400 N Robert Street #1820 Approved by Citizens League Board of Directors April 4, 2016 St. Paul, MN 55101 The Citizens League dedicates this report to the memory of Verne C. Johnson Executive Director of the Citizens League from 1958-1967. “During Johnson’s tenure several important changes occurred: from being watchdogs attending every City Council meeting, the League began to see itself as an agent of change; from reacting to other’s ideas to producing its own; from standing issues committees, to project-specific ad hoc committees; and most importantly, from Minneapolis-focused to Twin Cities-focused. By the mid-60s the Citizens League recognized the emerging interdependence of municipalities in the Twin Cities metropolitan area and urged a regional approach for solving problems that were more metropolitan in nature.” (Excerpted from A Short History of the Citizens League , 1993) This report was made possible by the generous support from the Verne C. Johnson Family Foundation A special thank you to the following Task Force members for their additional contributions to this report: John Adams Susan Arntz Steve Dornfeld Jim Erkel Michele Foster Chris Gerlach John Knapp Jim Solem Shannon Watson 2 The Metropolitan Council: Recalibrating for the Future TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION . .4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY . .8 HISTORY OF THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL . .12 Pre-Metropolitan Council and the Need for a Regional Entity . .13 The Creation of the Metropolitan Council . .15 Powers and Authority of the Metropolitan Council .
