<p class="MsoPlainText">As discussed at the council meeting last week, I would like to invite you to advise staff during the negotiations with CU regarding CU South Annexation.&nbsp;&nbsp; I understand that your advice will represent only your views and will not represent
 the view of the council as a whole.&nbsp;&nbsp; However, I believe that as elected officials you have a perspective that will be valuable in informing staff's work during the negotiations.&nbsp; I would appreciate your assistance with this important project.&nbsp;&nbsp; Based on the
 discussion at council,&nbsp; I believe that council members will not object to your assisting our team in this manner.<o:p></o:p></p>
