Mayor Winn directed this meeting to be called for the following specific item on the agenda:

City Attorney Terpstra explained that this resolution approved and adopts a “red flag rule” program to comply with the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act of 2003. The program set up the rules and establishes a program to mitigate I.D. theft.

Mayor Winn asked who will enforce the program, and how will the penalty be assessed.

Terpstra said that the FTC will enforce the program, and the penalties will be assessed according to the prosecutor.

Winn asked how the FTC would learn of a violation.

Terpstra said that if a complaint is made, the FTC would investigate.

Mayor Winn said that this item was brought to a special meeting because staff learned last week of this federally mandated program which was to be approved by May 1, 2009. However, staff just learned late today that this program has been given an extension to August 1, 2009. He stated that since we now we have the plan, we are OK.

MOTION: MOVED, SECONDED (UECKER, NUTT) AND CARRIED BY A VOTE OF 5-0 TO APPROVE RESOLUTION 09-30 FOR THE IDENTITY THEFT PREVENTION PROGRAM.

There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 4:10 p.m.
