Liquor License — Requested Action: Approve the non - intoxicating liquor license for the St. Joseph Recreation Association. The motion was seconded by Wick. Discussion: Loso questioned why the budget transfers are done at the end of the year versus recording the funds directly upon receipt. Finance Director Bartlett stated that because of budget cuts at the state level shifting of funds may be necessary which is easier to do at the end of the year. Weyrens stated that revenue streams for debt service accounts are transferred at the end of the year to make sure that the funds are needed, as one funds are transferred into debt service accounts they cannot be removed until the debt service is closed. The budget transfers are used as a management tool. The motion was passed unanimously. CITY ENGINEER/CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORTS Co Rd 2 Trail Proiect: Sabart presented the Council with the final grant application for the extension of Co Rd. 2 Trail. The application must be submitted to the St. Cloud Area Planning Organization no later than January 20, 2012. The application includes a project budget, narrative detailing why the project is important and a resolution of the governing body indicating support of the project, and the intent of the City of maintain the trail once constructed. Loso made a motion authorizing the Mayor and Administrator to execute Resolution 2012 -001 supporting the project, appoint an agent on behalf of the city, and agree to maintain the Trail upon completion. The motion was seconded by Frank. Discussion: Frank questioned what the match of funding might be. Sabart stated the submittal would ask for 80 percent federal funds and 20 percent local funds. The lowest the APO would come back with would be 30 percent federal funds and 70 percent local funds. The Co Rd 2 Trail project is projected to cost approximately one million dollars. Frank questioned if there are enough funds in the sales tax fund to cover the expenses if the project is accepted. Weyrens stated even with how much we committed already, there would be enough to fund this project. Sabart also stated the City would have the opportunity to decline and award if the project is funded. Loso questioned how the projects are chosen. Sabart stated an APO committee as well as a region 7W committee start with the review. The decision January 5, 2012 Page 2 of 4 then goes to the APO Executive Board. If this project is not selected for the funding, an application can be submitted again in two years. It is not uncommon to reapply. The motion was passed unanimously. North Corridor: Weyrens questioned if the City wanted pursue an application for funding for the North Corridor. Staff wanted to confirm it is not a priority to the Council to commit dollars to this project. St Cloud has indicated they are not in support of the extension. A full application would need to be completed to move forward with this project. The Council agreed if St Cloud is not in support, it does not make sense for St Joseph to go forward with this project. Continuation of working with St Cloud is possible for future plans of the North Corridor. The Council concurred to not move forward with a funding application at this time. Unresolved projects from 2011: Weyrens reviewed a list of unresolved projects from 2011. All items have been scheduled to be revisited in upcoming meetings. The list is as follows: • Park Terrace — will be bringing back to council and possibly getting some legislative changes on it. • St. Cloud Partnership /Greater MN Cities - Schultz stated he would like to schedule representatives to come back from the St. Cloud Partnership to let the Council know what their organization has been doing and how it can benefit St. Joseph. • Coalition of Greater MN Cities — The Coalition is offering reduced fees for Cities that are not members and are reduced 50 percent the first year, 25 percent the second year, and full price the third year. Wick stated we should have the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities come to see what they have to offer as well and make a decision at that point. • The Noise Ordinance — Potential amendment. • The Transportation Corridor Overlay — Currently will be brought back in February at the Planning Commission level. • The compost site — Currently in the process of finding land. Sartell, Waite Park, St Wendell Township, and St Joseph Township have all expressed interest in participating. • Parking Pad Amendment - Will be brought back at the next Council meeting with information to be considered. • Electronic scoreboard and installation at Schneider Field — This will be going back to the Park Board given that they have raised about $5000 and need to decide if they want to use park funds before bringing it back to the Council. Wick questioned if there is a way to get quotes for this project versus going with only the $20,000 one. Loso stated there were three options with the lowest being around $7000 or $8000. • The transportation study — The study will be starting January 30, 2012 at 5:30 pm for the scope of work that was approved by the Council. • EDA RFPs - St Joseph received about 6 to 7 requests for proposals for EDA services. The EDA board will be setting up meetings to interview the candidates if they wish to. • Surplus Property — Staff is getting the list together to bring to the council of the surplus property to get approval to sell. Staff is yet unsure of what method will be used for the sale of the items. • Website — Schultz and Weyrens participated in a conference call with Civic Plus as a website provider. Weyrens also looked at one other provider. Information will be brought to a future meeting to see if the council would like to change providers. Schultz believes a more user friendly website is needed for St. Joseph. Weyrens stated that a company such as Civic Plus would be the type of company that would be beneficial as it works primarily with municipalities. She stated that staff and the Council would want to look into website companies and do an invite for RFPs otherwise they City would be inundated with proposals. Loso stated he would like to know what we have now compared to what is wanted. What is it that the community would like and what are the benefits of getting a new website. Schultz stated he sees our current website as someplace to store documents and would like it to be more informational and a place where people can get and submit forms, be notified of items they want, etc. January 5, 2012 Page 3 of 4 • Fence Ordinance — The Ordinance will be coming back to the Planning Committee. A request was made whether a fence should be right on the line or two feet back and who gets the right to the property line. • Housing Group — The group should start meeting in the next couple months on the provisions for renting. • Facility Committee - Interest has been shown by architects on the invites staff sent out in creatively planning the site. Interviews are scheduled for January 24 and 25 2012. The times will be set once it is known how many interviews there will be. • Electronic Council Packets Intergovernmental Meeting: The meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, January 31 in Waite Park. Development: There is a lot of development going on including the new fast food place, American Manufacturing's expansion, and the army building which had their informational meeting for bidders on design /build. The proposals are due at the end of January. Frank stated there is a new Italian restaurant that signed a lease for the corner of the Millstream Shops. Excel Energy: Weyrens asked Excel Energy to come talk to the council regarding burying the electric lines on Minnesota Street. The Excel representative will address what the options and difficulties are. There have been a lot of questions why other cities are doing it, what are St. Joseph's options. Mayor Schultz stated he would like all the items listed by Weyrens to either be worked on during a council meeting or working meetings. Frank stated he would like the Council to take a look at the mission of the different groups and boards in St Joseph and give them some direction of where the Council would like to see them go. CSAH 2: Loso questioned Sabart as to the status of the County Road 2 bids. Sabart responded that the county does not want to go out for bids until St. Joseph has a better handle on the right of way for the trail. However, he expects the process to being in the next 30 to 60 days. With regard to the ROW acquisition, staff has met with 3 out of 4 property owners and corresponded with the 4th via mail. All have been willing to listen, but it is believed that they don't want to sign anything until they know what kind of compensation they might receive from the county. It puts the city in a difficult position as the county wants to move forward on the bids and at the same time the city is not able to get the land owners to sign agreements. The city may need to come to a memorandum of understanding with the land owners to agree to a negotiated amount similar to what the county is agreeing to. Sabart stated he will keep the Council updated. Skating Rink Weyrens stated that with the warm temperatures and lack of snow, the skating rink has not been flooded. The extended forecast is not favorable to flooding rinks and it is the Public Works Director opinion that it may not be worth flooding rinks this year as the weather will deteriorate the ice. Staff is looking for direction from Council as to whether it would be worth flooding it at this point as the rink usually close the second weekend in February. Council agreed that the rink will not be flooded due to lack of snow and ability to create and maintain ice. MAYOR REPORTS No Report COUNCIL REPORTS SYMANIETZ — No Report WICK — No Report LOSO — No Report January 5, 2012 Page 4 of 4 FRANK — Sion Ordinance: Frank questioned where the Ordinance for signs in the right a way is located and who is responsible for enforcement. Lately he has notice business signs in the boulevards and they are a nuisance. Frank questioned if an individual removes a sign, does that person get in trouble? Chief Jansky stated that the police department and maintenance departments try to stay proactive and take the signs down when they are noticed. Adiourn: Loso made a motion to adjourn the City Council Meeting and go into closed session pursuant to MN State Statue 13(d) 03 at 8:07 PM. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss labor strategy.

Judy Weyrens Administrator January 19, 2012 16 Page of Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the City Council for the City of St. Joseph met in regular session on Thursday, January 19, 2012 at 7:00 PM in the St. Joseph City Hall.

Eunice Anthony, Mary Stamp, Tom Borresch, Craig Gould, Molly Weyrens, Bradley Peterson, Shaunna Johnson, Steve Hennes, Teliza Calloway Public Comments th Mike McDonald 213 – 13 Avenue SE approached the Council to speak on behalf the potential financing for membership to the Coalition of Greater MN Cities. He stated that the only information in the packet regarding the membership is benefit for labor negotiations and funding is proposed through an enterprise fund. He questioned the logic behind the funding mechanism. S. Eunice 104 Chapel Lane, spoke in support of the proposed special use permit for the Catholic Worker House. She stated that the purpose of the special use permit is to provide a home that provides hospitality and fellowship while building neighborhood communities. Mary Stamp, 200 E MN Street approached the Council in support of the Catholic Worker special use permit request. Stamp stated that she lives within the neighborhood of the proposed special use and at a recent neighborhood meeting; two major areas of concern were expressed with the first centered around safety and the second the impact, if any, on home values. With regard to safety, Stamp stated that the proposed house for the Catholic Worker Community has been vacant for two years, and it is her opinion that by granting the special use permit the house will be once again occupied increasing the safety as there are now tenants living in the house and you know who they will be. Regarding homes values, Stamp stated that she could find nothing to indicate that home values would be decreased by granting the special use. Again, with the property occupied, the home and grounds will be maintained which she believes will increase the value. Stamp concluded by stated that she believes the Catholic Worker Community will be an asset to the neighborhood; rd Tim Borresch 11 – 3 Avenue, the Council concerning the Catholic Worker Community. He stated that one of the property he owns abuts the property for which the Council is considering a Special Use permit. He acknowledged that he missed the public hearing but has some concerns with the proposed special use as he initially understood the use would be an owner occupied rental unit but has since been informed that the owner lives out of State and will be leasing the property to the Catholic Worker Community. Borresch stated his questions include: who will be residing in the home, how many can occupy the property, will the property be taxed, and why is the property owner not present. Finally he questioned why the Council is considering a variance from the Ordinance as the R1 Zoning district currently requires all new rental to be owner occupied. It is his opinion that the City is increasing the potential rent market at the same time the College is moving the students back to campus. He questioned how the City will absorb all the vacant rental properties. Craig Gould approached the Council to speak in support of the Catholic Worker Special Use Permit. Gould stated that he, his wife and three children would be residing at the property as a the live in managers. They are committed to working with the Catholic Worker Program and have committed to residing at the property for at least one year. Gould stated that he and his family have been working wand provide a place for group discussion. As the live in resident he and his family will be responsible for the property management and engaging the neighborhood in their community purpose. Gould clarified that the house is not a drop in center; the house will provide safe and stable housing for people who need a place to live for three to six months. January 19, 2012 26 Page of Molly Weyrens, 6522 Laure Road, St. Cloud spoke on behalf of Catholic Worker Program. She stated that she has been working with the program for over three years and has been looking for home to carry nd out their mission. The home located at 35 – 2 Ave SE has six bedrooms and is in an established residential neighborhood. The size and location of the home make it ideal for the Catholic Worker Community. Weyrens stated that she understands the concerns of the neighbors and they have tried to address all the concerns. It is her opinion that the proposed use will provide more stability to the neighborhood than does a vacant un-kept house. Symanietz made a motion to approve the agenda with the deletion of consent agenda Agenda: item 4(a) Minutes. The motion was seconded by Wick and passed unanimously. Wick made a motion to approve the consent agenda as amended, seconded by Consent Agenda: Loso and passed unanimously. a. Minutes – removed. b.

Donations – Requested Action: Accept the donation for the stated purposes. Coalition of Greater MN Cities: Bradley Peterson, Attorney and Lobbyist for the Coalition of Greater MN Cities (CGMC) approached the Council to discuss membership. Peterson stated that the CGMC represents 745 communities and they provide support in five major areas: Annexation, LGA, Environment, Transportation and Labor. Peterson stated that the City of St. Joseph was a member until 2007/2008 when LGA funding started being reduced creating budget shortfalls. Peterson stated that one of the major areas of interest for member cities is their services at it relates to labor issues. He stated that the CGMC compiles data on salary (wages and benefits) and background on arbitrators. The CGMC provides a legislative wrap-up to all member cities, visiting each community. Peterson stated that the membership is active driven, therefore, to receive the most benefit the City should actively participate. CGMC is a partnership with the City and they lobby behalf of the Cities. LGA has been a major economic issue for communities like St. Joseph and they have a staff member who specializes in LGA and sits on the legislative board to review the current distribution policy. During the last legislative session CGMC engaged the media and had over 40 supportive articles in support of LGA in various papers throughout the State. In addition to lobbying for LGA, they have also been instrumental in the funding of economic development programs that may benefit the City. Shaunna Johnson, Administrator for the City of Waite Park approached the City Council in support of membership to the CGMC. She stated that Waite Park has utilized the Labor and Relations expertise successfully making changes to existing labor contracts. She stated that they are a true advocate for the CGMC as they are a voice for communities such as Waite Park and St. Joseph. While Waite Park has a City Attorney, the CGMC provides concentrated legal service in specialty areas which make it more cost effective to use the CGMC rather than the City Attorney. In addition to using the Labor services, Waite th Park has also utilized the CGMC when federal funding for 28 Street was in jeopardy. The City was within 24 hours of losing funding and the CGMC help work through the process, so that funding was not lost. The CGMC has also provided assistance for annexation matters as it relates to the Orderly Annexation Agreement between the City of Waite Park and St. Joseph Township. Johnson stated that in addition to being a member of the CGMC, Waite Park like St. Joseph is a member of the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC). She stated that each organization provides a different service as the LMC is responsible for providing support to all cities in Minnesota; whereas, the CGMC is a members based organization the provides a service. Steve Hennes, Council member for the City of Sartell, approached the council to speak in support of the services provided by the CGMC. Hennes stated that the Coalition is the voice for non-metro cities. He stated that like Waite Park, Sartell has utilized the legal services and assistance for employment related January 19, 2012 36 Page of matters and annexation. The legal fees charged by the Coalition are less than what the City Attorney would charge, and the savings in legal fees is greater than the membership fees paid. Councilor Frank stated that the information presented indicates that the CGMC represents the “greater MN” and he questioned Peterson what they means or who they represent. Peterson stated that the CGMC represents any City outside of the seven county metro area and a collection of communities that have common or shared issues. Frank then questioned the Interstate Infrastructure program the Coalition helped pass through legislation and questioned how that would benefit St. Joseph. Peterson stated that the program was funded with 35 million and is a competitive program that is available to any City who meets the program goals. Councilor Wick questioned the role of the CMGA in regard to the legislative committee formed to review the LGA formula. Peterson stated that the Coalition does have a staff member who sits on the committee and is considered an expert in Local government Aid. Peterson stated that the committee is large and it is questionable if a viable recommendation will be an end product. There is some speculation that the governor will appoint his own committee to review the mechanics of LGA, but regardless the Coalition will have a role, either on the committee or watching closely. When questioned on the fee for membership, Peterson stated that the fee structure has two components, the with a flat fee of $ 1,000 and then a 1.12 per capita. For St. Joseph the membership fee would equate to approximately $ 8,800. However, the Coalition is offering an incentive for membership and will reduce the fee 50% the first year, 75% the second year and the third year it would be the full fee. Peterson stated that if the City decides to become members, the membership will begin immediately. When questioned about the financing of the membership and the comments from Mr. McDonlad earlier in the meeting, Weyrens stated that the membership for 2012 could be paid through the refuse fund. The refuse fund is an enterprise fund and as such can fund a variety of activities. The balance in the refuse fund was generated years past and the current refuse rates are no funding the membership, nor are they set at a level to create a surplus. Historically the city has used these funds for special expenditures that impact all residents. This is similar to the busing study that was completed. Frank made a motion to become members of the Coalition for Greater MN Cities with the membership dues paid from the refuse fund. The motion was seconded by Symanietz and passed unanimously. Planning Commission Special Use Permit, Catholic Worker: Weyrens reported that the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing in January to consider an Interim Use Permit to allow a residential living facility in a residential zoning district. The property owner was allowed to request a special use permit as the Ordinance governing the R1 Zoning district includes a provision for uses that are eleemosynary or religious or charity based. The request is consistent with that provision. If the property owner had simply applied for a rental license for a non-owner occupied rental, the special use provision would not have been applicable. Mayor Schultz requested Molly Weyrens address the concerns voiced earlier in the meeting by Tim Borresch. Weyrens (Molly), stated she appreciates the concern of the neighborhood, and the Catholic Worker Community listened to what they had to say. She stated that each Catholic Worker Community has its own identity and some are a soup kitchen, others are drop in facilities, hospice or after school facilities. The Community proposed for St. Joseph is a home to conduct shared meals, prayer and build community. The house will have a live in care taker and provide living quarters for up to two more family units. The other tenants would be limited to three to six months and are individuals needed transition housing. With regard to the impact of the Catholic Worker home to residential values, Weyrens stated that she could not find any information that would validate the concern. It is the belief of the Catholic Worker community that occupying a home that has been vacant for two years adds viability to the neighborhood as the home will be occupied and maintained. Weyrens finished by stating that Catholic January 19, 2012 46 Page of Worker is an ecumenical organization that is only nonprofit at the State Level, so property taxes would be paid, and that is supported by community members. Weyrens (Judy), clarified that during the public hearing before the Planning Commission considerable discussion occurred regarding the maximum number of residents that could reside in the home and the Planning Commission agreed to set the density at the maximum allowed by the rental housing ordinance or eight, whichever is less. The rental housing inspection has been completed and based on bedroom square footage, the maximum number of persons would be eleven (11). Therefore, the resolution before the Council includes a provision that the maximum density is eleven persons or three unrelated persons whichever is less. Mayor Schultz corrected Weyrens and stated that the Planning Commission indicated that the maximum density could not exceed eight (8), but only if the square footage requirement in the ordinance would support the same. Frank made a motion to accept the findings of fact recommended by the Planning Commission, issuing a special use permit for a residential living facility that is non-owner occupied. The maximum density of the house is eight (8) persons or three unrelated persons as defined in the St. whichever is less. The motion was seconded by Loso. Joseph Code of Ordinances, Parking Pads – Weyrens stated that one of the unfinished items from 2011 is the potential ordinance amendment to define the location and composition of parking pads. The Council has been provided with the information considered by the Planning Commission, including the two different recommendations that were rejected by the Council. At this time the Council needs to provide direction to the Planning Commission as to what they are looking for in the Ordinance amendment. Loso stated that he is opposed to the City restricting residents on the use of their backyards. A number of years ago considerable discussion occurred where the issue was centered on parking in the front yards and the Ordinance was modified at that time. Loso stated that he supports no parking in the front yard, but will oppose any amendment relating to backyards. Police Chief Pete Jansky stated that the Police Department has stopped enforcing the no parking on the grass as the Ordinance did not define what constituted a parking pad. Some residents through some class three or five and consider that a parking pad. At the same time, grass is growing through the material and neighbors are complaining. The City has an Ordinance regulating junk cars and that is not the issue at this time. Wick stated that in reviewing the material provide to the Council, he prefers that language used by the City of Waite Park as it is simple, prohibits parking in front yards and has some limitations on side yard and rear yard parking, to which the Council concurred. Weyrens stated that she would prepare a draft for the Council to review before forwarding to the Planning Commission for consideration. th Treasurer’s Report: Finance Director Lori Bartlett presented the December 2011 and 4 Quarter Treasurer’s Report. She stated that the reports presented at this meeting are pre-audit, but based on the current data; the general fund spent approximately 97% of the budget while 95% of revenue was received. The City maintains a general fund balance equal to approximately five (5) months of expenditures. The enterprise funds th Loso made a motion to accept the December 2011 and 4 Quarter Treasurer’s Report as presented; seconded by Wick and passed unanimously. Appointments: Mayor Schultz presented the Council with the 2012 proposed appointments. Schultz stated there are minor changes to the appointments with a new member proposed for both the EDA and Planning Commission. Schultz also discussed the need to continue the Stearns County Municipal League membership. Weyrens stated that most of the information presented at these meetings is also provided through other partnerships and most of the cities in this organization or more rural in nature. When questioned as to the membership fee, Weyrens stated the membership fee is only $ 25 per year, Loso made a motion to but in addition meeting fees and mileage would be incurred by participants. January 19, 2012 56 Page of discontinue membership in the Stearns County Municipal League, effective 2012. The motion was seconded by Wick and passed unanimously. Wick questioned the proposed appointment for the EDA and if he is a resident or business owner in the City. Schultz stated that he is neither, but is the only application the City received. The applicant has worked with the City in the past, most recently facilitating the Tri-Cap busing services for residents. Schultz further stated that he made many inquiries to encourage residents or business owners to apply for appointment without success. Frank stated that he concurs with Wick and has many times in the past expressed concern that the City has a tendency to appoint persons to committees without residing in the City or having a financial impact. Loso stated that he knows the individual how applied for the EDA and he would be an asset to the community and he does not have a problem with him living outside the City limits. Wick and Frank stated their concern has nothing to do with the individual, rather appointing a member that does not have a financial impact. Symanietz stated that she too has a problem appointing and individual to a six year term that does not have an impact for decisions that are made. Schultz re-iterated that he would be happy to recommend appointment of a resident or business owner if they would apply, but he made numerous attempts and was unsuccessful. Frank made a motion to accept the 2012 appointments as presented with the exception of the EDA. This motion delays action on the EDA appointment for 60 days, leaving the position open, to allow the EDA to review the membership requirements, forwarding a recommendation to the City Council. The motion was seconded by Symanietz. Ayes: Wick, Frank, Symanietz Nays: Schultz, Loso Motion Carried 3:2:0 Wick made a motion to appointment Symanietz as acting Mayor; seconded by Acting Mayor – Frank and passed unanimously. Council Reports SYMANIETZ Human Rights: Symanietz reported that the Joint Powers Board for the St. Cloud Regional Human Rights Office met. The Board is still seeking members for the Human Rights Commission and have broadend the membership requirements to generate more interest. St. Cloud indicated that in additional to the annual contribution for membership, the City will be asked to participate in additional insurance cost incurred by the City of St. Cloud. It is anticipated that this is approximately $ 128.00. APO Executive: Symanietz reported that she attended the APO Executive meeting on behalf of the Mayor. WICK EDA: Wick reported that the EDA will be meeting on January 25 at which time they will be reviewing the 2011 report and setting working goals for 2012. Frank stated that the goals setting should include conversation and visioning with the City Council. FRANK EDA : Frank stated that the EDA will be meeting on January 25 and will be reviewing consultant proposals for the Director. Schultz questioned what role the City Council plays in the hiring of the consultant. Weyrens stated that EDA enabling documents empower the EDA to hire the executive director; however the Council could provide input to the City Council representatives. Schultz suggested that the EDA consider moving their meeting time from 3:00 PM to later in the day so that more residents have the ability to participate. January 19, 2012 66 Page of Loso made a motion to adjourn at 9:25 PM; seconded by Wick and passed unanimously. Adjourn: Judy Weyrens Administrator
