McQuillan ,Rochester, Minnesota Dear Mr. McQuillan: I am in receipt bf your letter of April 1, 1947 which reads as follows: 'Mr. F.F.-Palen 225 Fifth Ave. S.W. Rochester, Minnesota Dear Sir: Owing to the difficult_ situation relations that exist between you and I and feeling that there can be no cooperation in the policies that I hope to install in our city government, I would appreciate having you present your resignation to the City Council at the very next mee ting. Hoping that this matter can be disposed of without the resultant publicity and embarrassment that may develope I remain Very truly yours, (signed) Claude H. McQuillan1 I know of nothing in my record during the ten years that I have served as a member of the Board of Public Health and Welfare of Rochester, Minnesota that would justifyyour request *for my resignation. On Monday, March 31, 1947 the City Council of Rochester confirmed my reappointment as a member of the Public Health and Welfare Board. I presume the Council was fully informed as to my qualifications for the position at the time it acted. However, I feel that I am responsible to the Council, as the governing body of Rochester, and any time the Council feels that my tenure of office should be terminated and so notifies me I will be glad to submit my resignation. A copy of this letter is being sent to the City Council so that it may be fully informed as to the nature of your request and my attitude. Yours very truly, Fred F. Palen" President Lemmon also read the following ruling submitted by Attorney )scar C. Ronken on the following questions: 200 4 "To the Honorable mayor and the Honorable Common Council of the City of Rochester The following questions have been referred to me and I herewith return my answer; 1. What significance attaches to the fact that an appointive office of the City of Rochester is a stockholder and director in a corporation with which the city may have a contract? Ownership of ,stock in a corporation with which the city has a contract is not permitted to any officer, either elective or appointive, of the city of Rochester. If there is not now any contract with such corporation there is nothing to prevent such stockholder from being appointed to any office in the city. But if thereafter the city enters into a contract with such corporation, such contract would probably be void, and the officer of the city owning shares of stock in such corporation would, unless he disassociated himself either from the office or from the ownership of shares in the corporation, be subject to removal from his office. Where a contractor has a contract with the city for doing a certain piece of work, any officer of the city is free to sell to such contractor materials to be used in such work, and such selling is not within any prohibition of the city charter. 2. Is the fact .that the city in the past year purchased mat'e•rials from a corporation in which an appointive officer of the city was a stockholder and director a sufficient basis for removing such officer from a succeeding appointment to the same office? It is not possible to give a Yes or No to this question. The charter provisions are not clear on this point; there is not any decision in this state directly in point; and the decisions from other states are divided. There may no doubt be such misconduct by an officer that he may be removed from his office because of it although such misconduct took place in a previous term of office.. But -it would seem that where a violation of a prohibition against having any interest in a contract in which the city is interested is unintentional, and is of a trivial nature, and there is not now any contract existing between the city and the corporation of which such officer is a. stockholder, and all this is known to the council at the time of reappointment, a violation in a previous term could not be a. valid basis for the removal of such officer for his succeeding term. Respectfully submitted, OScar C. Ronken " Alderman Kennedy introduced the following resolution which was read; "WHEREAS, It is deemed expedient and necessary that the Common Council of the City of Rochester, Minnesota, adopt rules of order for the conduct of its business, and WHEREAS, A copy of Robert's Rules of Order (revised) of the 1915 Copyright, is before this Common Council: SO THEREFORE, Be it resolved by the Common Council of the City of Rochester, Minnesota: That the said Robert's Rules of Order be adopted by this Common Council as rules of order for the conduct of its business."
