She was obtained to be my emotional support animal. I had to put down my dog Thor 2 years
ago. He was my emotional support dog. This breed was selected for their calm and affectionate
nature. They are frequently referred to as a Gentle Giant. This could not be more true about
Idunn. She is a puppy and does have the bursts of energy one would expect however she has
also proven to be very loving and welcoming to those she meets on walks.I would like to note she is still a puppy and is not fixed yet.
I do plan on fixing her when she is a little over a year.

I am looking at purchasing a house in the area. The house I am looking at has a fence. If we found a house without a fence a fence
would be promptly put up in accorance with the city. I also plan to if there is a gate have a lock such as a key lock of combination lock
to help ensure the gate does not get left open.
I have a company that I am working with that will come through for weekly if not biweekly clean up of the yard. As far as the
nuisance, my family and I are aware of the dogs playing and when/if the barking happens normally more than 3 times I will call the
animals in. When not home the dogs are confined to a kennel which they have adjusted to and do not make uneeded noise.

Replacement of ALL Radios for the Fire Department
Council Priority: ☐ Dispensary ☐ Industrial Park Expansion ☐ Housing
☐ Public Safety Facility/Safe Crossing of CSAH 75 ☒ N/A
ACTION REQUESTED
Purchase new 38 handheld Radios and 8 Base/Truck Units for the Fire Department.
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
The Fire Department currently has 3 different series of Handheld radios, which mean 3 different
ways of operating them, 3 different battery styles, and 3 different charging bases. Out of the 38
handhelds, 27 of them were purchased back in 2002 and are old and unable to get replacement
parts for repair. Replacing them all at once gives us the opportunity to have all the same radios
work the same way in a emergency situation. Also, there is talk that all fire departments may need
to be able to go to a more secure channel (encryption) in the new future. This is another reason
why we would like to do them all at once. We are able to get in on a special price with other cites
and Motorola which is 50% off. This includes us turning in all the old radios we are replacing.
BUDGET IMPACT
Total price for 38 handheld radios and 8 new base/truck units = $160,523.86
Radio Fund = $50,913.47
Donations = $49,286.80
Equipment Fund = $60,503.59
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Council approve the purchase of the radios.

APX N50 Portable Radio Solution Description
OVERVIEW
The APX N50 offers affordable, next generation communications for without
compromising P25 interoperability or voice and data quality. It offers a durable
design with “pick-up-and-go” functionality, optimizing ease-of-use and focused
communications in almost all environments.
DURABLE AND EASY TO USE
The APX N50 enhances operations with a front display with an upgraded user
interface for better readability and loud and clear audio for reliable, everyday
use. Additionally, it offers extended battery life, a shorter antenna, and Bluetooth
compatibility with audio accessories, promoting efficient communications
between first responders.
Adaptive Audio
For first responders in loud environments, the APX N50 offers adaptive audio
that enhances voice quality and minimizes background noise. The APX N50
includes two High Dynamic Range (HDR) microphones with high overload point
pickup that reproduces voice with clarity and reduces audio clipping and
distortion, even when shouting. The radio has custom speakers that use noise
cancellation technology to amplify loud and clear audio, and help make every
syllable intelligible.
An enhanced audio engine dynamically adjusts the N50 in any environment by
using algorithms to filter out unpredictable background noise and wind while
using multiple microphones to track voice from every angle, allowing first
responders to speak into the radio without compromising voice quality.
Additional environmentally aware audio features receive volume leveling and
noise sensing volume control–the radio will automatically adjust for loud or soft
talkers and the changing ambient noise levels. These features allow first
responders to keep their eyes forward and remain focused on situations as they
unfold.
Essential and Secure P25 Communications
The APX N50 is certified compliant with P25 standards and supports digital and analog trunking, FDMA
and TDMA, and Integrated Voice and Data. All P25 communications over the N50 are safe and secure–it
offers software and hardware encryption, single- and multi key encryption, and P25 Authentication,
protecting communications during daily operations.
Reliable Connectivity
Using the APX N50 lets first responders stay connected across disparate networks. It is equipped with
Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth®, and GPS features, bringing future-ready applications, services, and best-in-class
connectivity to everyday use. APX N50 radios support 7/800 MHz frequency bands across radio systems,
with minimal intervention by the radio user.
SmartConnect over Wi-Fi
QUOTE-3496765Replacement of All Radios(N50s and 6500s)
Any sales transaction following Motorola's quote is based on and subject to the terms and conditions of the valid and executed written contract between Customer and Motorola (the""Underlying Agreement"") that authorizes Customer to purchase equipment and/or services or license software (collectively ""Products""). If no Underlying Agreement exists betweenMotorola and Customer, then Motorola's Standard Terms of Use and Motorola's Standard Terms and Conditions of Sales and Supply shall govern the purchase of the Products.
Page 6
SmartConnect is a subscription service that allows first responders to access critical intelligence no
matter where the mission takes them. When P25 networks are unavailable, the APX N50 will maintain
functionality and voice quality by automatically switching to an available broadband network, enabling
connectivity outside of radio system coverage. Voice information and signals between radios and control
are encrypted, ensuring that all transmissions are secure.
The APX N50 can use SmartConnect when directly connected to Wi-Fi hotspots, through an in-vehicle
LTE modem, or over a satellite connection. Additionally, the radio will indicate to users when
SmartConnect is active by displaying a blue bar on-screen. Managing and Provisioning Devices
APX N50 can be programmed in two ways: one-at-a-time through Customer Programming Service
(“CPS”) or through a combination of CPS and batch programming over Wi-Fi available with the radio
management (“RM”) software.
CPS is a proprietary, Windows-based application, used to configure APX subscriber radios in offline
situations that include provisioning, networking, and monitoring tools that provide greater awareness and
faster radio management. The CPS application offers drag-and-drop, clone-wizard, and basic import/
export functions that allow the addition of new software and feature enhancements. APX N radios can be
programmed one-at-a-time on a local PC, via secure USB port connection, with TLS-PSK based
encryption. Once loaded, subscriber radios are read and edited, and codeplugs and templates can be
saved and duplicated to program other fleet radios
Batch Programming is available through the RM software for simultaneous programming and upgrading
throughout the radio fleet. With Batch Programming, up to 16 radios can be programmed at once over a
Wi-Fi connection. This reduces programming time and ensures that the radio fleet is always up-to-date
and ready-to-use in the field.
Device Management Services
Device Management Services (“DMS”) packages provide programming, management, and maintenance
services to maximize the effectiveness of this APX N50 solution, while reducing maintenance risk,
workload, and total cost of ownership. DMS tackles a range of customer needs, whether the solution is
self-maintained or managed by Motorola Solutions.

RE: Annual TIF Reporting to Office of State Auditor
Dear Lori:
The purpose of this letter is to offer you the services of Northland Public Finance, a
division of Northland Securities (“Northland”), to assist you with the process of
completion and submission of the mandated reports (pursuant to Minnesota Statutes
469.175, Subd. 6) for tax increment financing (TIF) districts for year ending December
31, 2024 (the “Service”).
We consider the annual reporting process to be a great time to review existing TIF
districts for potential opportunities, including pooling of funds and review of outstanding
obligations. We view and undertake the process as much more than an accounting
access and filling out a form on your behalf.
If you would like Northland to undertake the completion and submission of the annual
TIF reporting forms, please sign and return this letter (see below) and sign the attached
State Auditor SAFES document and return to me. Reports will be made available from
the Office of the State Auditor (OSA) and will be due to the OSA by August 1, 2026.
The remainder of this letter describes the Service in greater detail. The Service qualifies
as administrative expense and the cost can be paid from tax increments, subject to the
authorizations in the respective TIF plans of the authority.
Service Provided and Compensation
Northland will prepare and submit reports in accordance with statutory requirements.
Northland will also prepare the summary statement (as required by Minnesota Statute
469.175, Subd. 5) for the authority to submit to the newspaper for publication. We will
ask the authority to provide 2025 general ledger activity for tax increment financing
districts. Northland may also request documentation on TIF plan modifications,
supporting documentation on all revenues and expenditures and copies of TIF Plans and
development agreements, among other relevant information.
The cost of the Service provided by Northland for 2025 Annual TIF Reporting is as
follows:
A flat fee of $1,285 per district applies to districts where the 2024 report was
prepared by Northland.
Annual TIF Reporting
March 2, 2026
Page 2
A flat fee of $1,795 per district applies to districts where the 2024 report was not
prepared by Northland.
A flat fee of $2,560 per district where fiscal year 2025 is the first year of reporting for
a new tax increment financing district.
Disclosure
The Service is solely for financial planning and Northland is not providing advice on the
timing, terms, structure, or similar matters related to a specific bond issue.
Next Steps
We look forward to having the opportunity to work with you to complete the annual TIF
reporting. Please contact me directly if have questions or would like to discuss in more
detail the Service. I can be reached at (612) 851-4964 or at

PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
N/A
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
Xcel is doing powerline work along the area of Birch St W. One of the powerline poles will be
slightly adjusted and due to the adjustment, an easement area is needed to accommodate the
location and maintenance of the powerline pole. Staff have worked with our legal team and Xcel
Energy’s legal team. The proposed easement resolution represents the agreed to language from
both parties.
BUDGET IMPACT
Staff have worked with legal on appropriate compensation amount. The proposal was $1.08 a
square foot and approximately 6969 square feet is the size of the easement. Therefore, Xcel
would pay the city $7,527 for the easement. Xcel will also reimburse the city for any legal
expenses incurred because of reviewing the easement resolution.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approval of resolution 2026-015. Public Works and Engineering have also reviewed the proposal.

_______
(Space above reserved for recording purposes)
ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION EASEMENT
1. Easement. The undersigned, City of St. Joseph, a Minnesota municipal corporation
(“Grantor”), for good and valuable consideration paid to Grantor, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, does hereby grant unto Northern States Power Company,
a Minnesota corporation, its successors and assigns (“NSP”), a perpetual and irrevocable
easement (the “Easement”) to construct, reconstruct, repair, replace, operate, maintain, use,
inspect, patrol, upgrade, modify, alter, rebuild, relocate, and/or remove, in whole or in part,
electric transmission and/or distribution line or lines, with one or more circuits, with all
towers, structures, poles, foundations, crossarms, cables, wires, anchors, guys, supports,
counterpoises, fixtures, and equipment related to said electric line(s), including
communication equipment relating to the operation of such electric lines (collectively, the
“Facilities”), through, over, under and across the certain lands situated in the County of
Stearns, State of Minnesota described on the attached Exhibit A (the “Property”). The
Easement shall be limited to that certain part of the Property described as the “Easement
Area” on said Exhibit A.
Grantor hereby grants to NSP an license to enter upon the Property to survey and/or locate
the Facilities. Grantor hereby grants to NSP an easement for ingress and egress over and
across the Property to the Easement Area, by means of existing roads, drives, and lanes, if
any, otherwise, by the use of a reasonable and feasible route selected by NSP. The Grantor
hereby grants to NSP a temporary easement for use by NSP of the Property adjacent to the
Easement Area from time to time during construction, reconstruction, repair, replacement,
operation, maintenance, use, inspection, patrol, upgrade, modification, alteration, rebuild,
relocation, and/or removal of the Facilities. Except in the event of emergency or when using
2
the temporary easement during initial construction and restoration, NSP shall notify Grantor
in writing fifteen (15) days prior to exercising its rights under this temporary easement and
shall abide by any reasonable instructions of Grantor.
All Facilities installed and placed by or on behalf of NSP in the Easement Area shall remain
the property of NSP. NSP shall also have the rights to permit the attachment of wires of
others to the Facilities or any part thereof.
2. Grantor’s Responsibilities. Grantor shall not perform any act, or cause or permit acts to be
done by others, that will interfere with or endanger the Facilities or NSP’s exercise of its
rights hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Grantor shall not erect any buildings,
structures, or other objects, permanent or temporary, or plant any trees, within the
Easement Area, without NSP’s prior written approval.
3. Vegetation Management. Grantor hereby grants to NSP the right to trim, remove, or
otherwise control any trees, brush, or other vegetation that are located within the Easement
Area. Grantor further grants to NSP the right to trim, remove, or otherwise control any
trees, brush, or other similar vegetation located adjacent to the Easement Area that may, in
NSP’s opinion, at any time interfere with or otherwise endanger the Facilities or NSP’s
exercise of its rights hereunder.
4. Grantor’s Reserved Rights. Without limiting the foregoing, Grantor reserves the right to
cultivate, use, and occupy the Easement Area in a manner that is not inconsistent with NSP’s
rights granted herein. Grantor reserves the right to dedicate and have or permit to be
improved, maintained, and used for the purposes of streets, curbs and gutters, sewers,
water, and underground utilities (hereinafter called “improvements”), the portion of said
Easement Area not occupied by the Facilities or otherwise supporting NSP’s electric
system subject to Section 2 above.. Grantor agrees to not permanently alter the existing
ground elevations or perform any other acts that would result in a ground or other clearance
of less than the minimum requirements specified by the National Electrical Safety Code
(“NESC”) or any other applicable laws, regulations, codes, or policies in effect from time
to time. NSP acknowledges that Grantor has underground public utilities located within
the Easement Area and agrees that Grantor may in the future locate underground additional
public utilities within the Easement Area the portion of said Easement Area not occupied
by the Facilities or otherwise supporting NSP’s electric system. Except for constructing
and maintaining its Facilities within the Easement Area, NSP shall not interfere with
Grantor’s right to excavate, construct, reconstruct or maintain Grantor’s underground
public utilities. NSP shall not perform any act or cause or permit acts to be done by others,
that will endanger Grantor’s underground public utilities.
5. Restoration. After installation of the Facilities or after the exercise of any of the rights
granted herein, NSP agrees to restore the Property and the Easement Area to as near their
original condition as is reasonably possible and remove therefrom all debris, spoils, and
equipment resulting from NSP’s use of the Property and Easement Area or pay a reasonable
sum therefor, at NSP’s option. After initial construction and restoration activities have
3
been completed, NSP shall pay a reasonable sum for all actual and direct damages to
Grantor’s landscaping, roads and driveways, curbs, gutters, sewers, water and underground
utilities, fences, livestock, and crops directly caused by the construction or maintenance of
the Facilities to the extent NSP does not restore the same; provided, however, that NSP
shall have no obligation to restore or pay damages in connection with its removal or other
maintenance of trees, brush, or other vegetation, or for removal or other actions with
respect to any structures, buildings, improvements, or other installations placed within the
Easement Area without Grantor’s advance written determination of compatibility,
excluding Grantor’s underground public utilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NSP
acknowledges and agrees that Grantor may maintain its underground public utilities in the
Easement Area and NSP does not have a right to remove the same.
6. Additional Documents. Grantor agrees to execute and deliver to NSP, without additional
compensation, any additional documents needed to correct and/or amend the Easement,
including the legal description of the Easement Area, to conform to the right of way
actually occupied by the Facilities or otherwise as requested by NSP to accomplish the
purposes of this Easement.
7. Term. The term of this instrument and the easements and other rights granted herein is
perpetual.
8. Assignment. The rights herein granted may be assigned and/or apportioned in whole or in
part. NSP may exercise all or any of its rights hereunder at any time, and NSP’s non-use or
limited use of any such rights shall not constitute forfeiture of or otherwise limit any such
rights. NSP may assign and/or apportion and/or otherwise enter into agreements with respect
to its rights hereunder, in whole or in part, in its sole discretion.
9. Ownership of Property. Grantor covenants for the benefit of NSP, its successors and assigns,
that Grantor is the owner of the Property and has the right to convey easements as set forth
herein.
10. Covenants Run with the Land. The easements and covenants contained in this instrument
shall run with and against the Property.
11. Entire Agreement. It is mutually understood and agreed that this instrument covers all the
agreements and stipulations between the parties and that the terms herein may only be
modified in writing.
12. Governing Law. This instrument shall be governed by the laws of Minnesota.

Consent provides automatic approval of the vacation of easements through resolution 2026-017
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing and voted 5–0 on March 9 to approve the vacation of
easements. Three residents spoke at the hearing. One resident asked how the vacation would affect their
property, another raised concerns about whether it would impact the existing drainage pond, and a third
raised a private matter that staff stated they would address offline.
Staff also received a few calls and emails from residents seeking clarification on what the easement vacation
means.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION None
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
During the sale of a lot on Jefferson Lane in the Liberty Pointe development, a title company identified an
error related to existing easements.
The original Liberty Pointe Plat included attached single-family homes with shared common walls like what
is shown below at 1615 and 1619 Dale St E:
In 2005, the area was re-platted to convert many of these lots to detached single-family homes on individual
lots. During the re-plat new lot lines were established, however, the original common area easements which
now fell within the new lot lines were never formally vacated during the re-plat. These easements
encompass the common areas outside the lot lines, which are owned by the Liberty Pointe Homeowners
Association (the applicant).
Staff recommends vacating not only the easement within the subject lot but also all remaining common
easement areas that now fall within individual lot lines in the Liberty Pointe development. This action will
prevent similar title issues in the future. Most lots have already been developed with single family homes
built in the 2005/2006 timeframe. No impacts will occur to the lots besides correcting a technical error
through formally vacating the easements.

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
none
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
Council approved the following top 5 priorities:
1. Community Center
2. Dispensary
3. Industrial Park Expansion
4. Housing
5. Public Safety Facility/Safe Crossing of 75 (tie)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
The city issued 2019A improvement bonds to finance the infrastructure construction of Northland
Business Center Phase II. The city partnered with CLC Partners on the development. The city also
received MN BDPI (business development infrastructure) grant funds to pay for a portion of the
project. Since there was state money involved, the city had to be the fiscal agent for the project. CLC
managed the lots and were responsible for ensuring the city had the funds to pay the bonds.
CLC marketed and sold the lots to industrial users. CLC remitted special assessments to the city as lots
sold to pay for the bonds. As of early March, all but two lots with special assessments have sold. The
proceeds from the special assessments along with an unspent construction contingency exceed the
remaining balance due on the 2019A bonds.
The 2019A bonds are not callable (able to be paid off early) until Dec. 15, 2027. We are unable to use
the excess funds for other purposes until after the call date. As another option, we can defease the
bonds now and place the balance due plus fees in an escrow account to make the bond payments
through the call date. The bond liability will be removed from the city’s financials. Any excess funds
after paying the escrow account are released into the debt relief fund 110 and can be used for any
municipal purpose. This would free up roughly $215,000 for the city to use for another purpose as
early as April 2026.
The city has prioritized the expansion of industrial park and single-family housing lots. The $215,000
could be used towards infrastructure costs for one of these priorities. Staff have met with CLC Partners
on both priorities. Since CLC had the responsibility to pay the assessments, staff recommend
partnering with CLC on the project for the use of excess funds. For a 2026 project, housing
infrastructure is the likely project on the south side of the city.
Also to note, the city will save in interest payments for the last two years of the bonds.
BUDGET IMPACT
Escrow Account $939,462
Remaining Principal/Interest until call date $926,650
Defeasement fees $12,812
Balance in Escrow $939,462
Estimated remaining cash balance $215,000
Bond Interest savings (2028/2029) $25,800

ACTION REQUESTED
Approval of resolution 2026-018
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
On March 9, the Planning Commission voted 5–0 to approve the Final Plat (no public hearing required).
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
Council approved the Preliminary Plat, Rezoning, and Future Land Use amendments on January 20th, 2026.
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
The Sisters of St. Ben’s have submitted the Final Plat to officially consolidate seven existing lots into one
contiguous parcel to accommodate construction of a new monastery. The proposed building location crosses
existing lot lines (Outlots D and G, and Lot 003, Block 001 of the Benedict Plat), which triggers the re-plat.
The Final Plat also dedicates standard perimeter drainage and utility easements. Because this action is a lot
consolidation with no public infrastructure improvements, a Developer’s Agreement is not required. All that
is needed is a resolution approving the Final Plat.
Of note - Administrative review of the Site Plan is underway with only minor comments identified.
Following Final Plat approval and recording, Site Plan approval is expected shortly thereafter, with building
permit issuance to follow.
