City of Shakopee CONSENT
Memorandum
TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Tracy Schaefer, Assistant to the City Administrator
SUBJECT: Stephen Guzzetta Resignation from the Telecommunications
Commission & Appointment of Benjamin Adams
MEETING DATE: June 17,2003
Introduction
Accept Mr. Guzzetta's resignation with regret and appoint Mr. Adams to fill the
unexpired term of Mr. Guzetta until February 28, 2004.
Background
I received a letter of resignation from Stephen Guzzetta on June 12,2003 from the
Telecommunications Commission.
Rather than advertising for the position, staff recommends the appointment of Benjamin
Adams to the Telecommunications Commission to fill the new opening. Councilors
Helkamp and Lehman interviewed Mr. Adams in February for the Telecommunications
Commission. Although Mr. Adams was not appointed, the interview panel thought
highly of Mr. Adams; however, there were not enough open positions on the
Commission. I spoke to Mr. Adams and he is still very interested in serving on the
Telecommunications Commission.
Action Required
Accept Mr. Guzzetta's resignation with regret and appoint Mr. Adams to fill the
unexpired term of Mr. Guzetta until February 28,2004.

Re: Re~enation from the Shako))ee Telecommunications Advisory
Commission
Dear Tracy:
Due to unforeseen circumstances which require me to dedicate much more time to the
operation of my law firm, I hereby resign from my position as a commissioner on the
Shakopee Telecommunications Advisory Commission, effective immediately. I have
enjoyed working with my fellow commissioners on the matters presented to the
Commission, and very much appreciate all of your hard work and dedication. I will
continue to monitor cable television and telecommunications issues affecting the City, as
a "private" citizen, and would be happy to provide you with whatever guidance and
advice I can on specific legal and policy questions that may arise in the future, if
requested to do so.
It has been an honor to serve as a Commissioner, and I will miss working with you and
the Commission members.
Very trUly yours,
