DISCUSSION OF COUNCIL POSITION ON 5/8C SALES TAX REFERENDUM Mr. Ollendorff said this item and the two following were not on his agenda, but had been requested by councilmembers for discussion. Mrs. Metcalfe said she had asked that this item and the following one be brought up on the Council floor for consid- eration. Although several councilmembers' views on the 5/8~ sales tax referendum (to be voted on at the August 3 election) were known, Mrs. Metcalfe said it should be made clear to others that the Council had not yet reached a consensus, if that in fact is correct. Also, since this matter is to be discussed and presumably voted on at the St. Louis County Municipal League meeting the following Thursday, she felt the Council should deride how it wishes to vote at that meeting or if it should take no position. Mr. Lieberman reviewed the mechanics of the voting process at County Municipal League
