The low bid . will be recommended for approval. 13. a) The City 1S required to provide, and the Police Department has requested to be given the Hepatitis immunizations. The County Health Department orders vaccine about twice a year. They were just in the process of ordering it, so I requested that they order enough for our officers.. as the Chief had requested. The cost lS $95 per person, or $475 total. Dr. Newton is willing to give the shots at $8 per shot. Dr. Newton stated that blood tests pr10r to the vaccine shots are optional.

As of the time I am writing this letter, I have not heard back from . the Sheriff in reference to checking on St. Ben's past record relative to their liquor license application. I hope to have made contact with the sheriff before the council meeting and advise you. I would also like to share some information to you in reference to the enclosed directive the council sent to the police department. (enforcE ment) In last years June incident report (may period) the police departmE f/t'f,P - 26 tickets, 10 of which were for parking. This year the police department issued nearly 100 tickets and charges for the same time frame, with 25 bej for parking. This represents over 4 times the amount of tickets and char~ issued, and over twice the amount for parking issues. 16 vs. 66, & 10 vs. Last week I was in contact with Jim Marthaler and delivered to him approximately 20 property locations with long grass and or weeds. Jim knE of most of the locations, and is working on them. He will be back in cant with me for any that become a problem and will not cooperate. In addition to this, the police department located approximately 20 other properties with junk cars located on them, and made contact with thE owners to correct the problem. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of what the police depart ment has been doing in these areas, and to express my opinion that I beliE we have been doing a fairly decent job at it.

Box 59040 Minneapolis, MN 55459-0040 (612) 627-5100 DATE: June 10, 1992 TO : City Councils, T~ Boards, Rural Water Districts- FROM: Marlene E. Marsc al Commissioner Protecting the health of people consuming water from public water supplies is a responsibility that the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) assumes from the federal government. In Minnesota, the MDH must enforce the requirements of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, and regulations developed by the U.S: Environmental Protection Agency for providing safe drinking water. The federal government has determined that the numbers of parameters monitored should increase from 23 to 83 parameters. During the 1992 state legislative session, the MDH was authorized to assess a fee of $5.21 per water service connection to cover the total state costs of the program. The fee is to be paid by a public water supply owned or operated by a city, town or water user district. (Laws of Minnesota 1992, Chapter 513, Article 6, Section 2.) . This is to notify you of the following: .. You must collect $5.21 annually from every service connection served by your water supply ps of July 1 of that year. 2. You must pay the Department of Revenue one fourth of the total yearly fee each calendar quarter. The first quarterly payment is due on or before September 30, 1992. A water supply with fewer than 50 service connections may make one payment annually starting no later than June 30, 1993. 3. If you do not submit payment within 30 days of the due date, you must pay an additional late fee. The late fee is 5 percent of the actual amount of the fees collected on service connections. To assist with the payment of the fee, the MDH will soon be distributing coupon booklets that will aid you in returning the fee amount to the Department of Revenue. To inform the MDH of the number of service connections served by your water supply, we request that you return the enclosed postcard by July 15, 1992. To inform your water supply customers of the fee, we suggest a way to describe the fee is, ~Fee for safe drinking water testing program mandated by federal law.~ We hope to make collection of this fee as simple as possible. Public water supply staff are available to answer questions concerning the fee collection requirements at 612/627-5170. . We would like to hear any suggestions you may have to ease this process. We are aware of some confusion regarding the effective date of this legislation.

O. Box 668 Saint Joseph, Minnesota 56374 Dear Counc ii, As the cable television business changes, I'm pleased to inform you that Mark Twain Cablevision will keep pace with the changes. In the months of June and July you will see the installation of a new satellite receiving antenna at our headends located throughout the region. This new receiving antenna is necessitated by the launch of a new satellite, Hughes Galaxy 5. A number of programming services currently carried, such as WTBS - Atlanta, ESPN, and Cable News Network (CNN) and the Family Channel will be moving to Galaxy 5 from their current locat ion, the Galaxy 1 satellite. However, other serv ices, such as CMTV, TNT and Home Box Office (HBO) will remain on Galaxy 1. In order to receive both satellites a new satellite ~ antenna is needed. The launch of Galaxy 5 is the start of a number of new cable television satellites to be put into orbit over the next eighteen (18) months. We will do everything possible to keep with the technological advances in the future. With the new Galaxy 5 antenna, our capability to receive more channels is increased. In future years, it make adding new channels more possible. The installation of this new satellite antenna represents a sizable additional investment for the system in your city. 8!it!Qygt!

Joseph MN 56374 Dear City Officials: As you will recall, in February we asked you for a letter in support of our application to the state Gambling Control I Division. Our intent was to use Charitable Gambling Funds to assist in remodeling our meeting rooms and kitchen. We have been informed by the state that we will be allowed to use $39,300.00 of gambling funds to assist remodeling as planned. IT WAS YOUR LETTER, and others like it, that made it possible! THANK YOU! It is the cooperation between the many groups in the area, working together, that makes things like this possible. The remodeling has begun, and will get in full gear immediately after July 4th. We hope to have the job done by mid to late August, with a grand opening in September. Again, thank you for your support, and we look forward to being here for you in the future.

Slater, Executive Direct \ ~ SUBJECT: League of Minnesota Cities FY 92/93 Membership Dues Last year, the membership considered a constitutional amendment granting the League's board of directors authority to assess membership dues. When this amendment failed, the most recently adopted dues schedule, FY 1990/91, went into . affect. This schedule was used to assess dues for the 1990/91 budget year. At that time the League raised dues by 4.9 percent. For FY 1991/92 there was no general dues increase for member cities, but population figures used for calculating dues - were adjusted using the 1990 census data. The 1990/91 dues scheduled was adopted as a constitutional amendment in 1988, which covered League dues for three years. Dues were set by the board during those three years at less than the allowed maximum for each year. Therefore, because the dues were not increased by the allowed maximum in 1990/91, it is possible for the board to increase dues approximately three percent without a constitutional amendment for the 1992/93 budget year. The Budget Committee met on May 19 and discussed recommending to the board a potential three percent dues increase. While the board will ultimately act on this matter, it is important to give members advance notice of this possibility. The proposed three percent dues increase would generate a total of $42,514 in revenue. This represents less than 1 1/2 percent of the League's total budget. . Enclosed is a report comparing the present dues for each city to the proposed amount for FY 92/93. The board will consider this matter when they adopt the FY 1992/93 budget this September. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me or Helen Schendel at the League offices, (612) 227-5600. Thank you.
