The Mayor, the Police Chief and I attended a prJliminary meeting on'W ednesday with representatives of both campuses, to discuss what the topib of discussion would be for thi~ joint meeting. The common theme running through the discussifn is that we have to enter tþis meeting with realistic expectations. It's impossible to guaranttte good student behavior. We caJT be proactive though to. nyand put a stop to the problems before t,hey start. The group agreed th~t the meeting, should be focused on working toward cornmon goals and fInding common solutions to the concerns we all share. The school officials stressed that t;hey are very anxious to do more,to help the situation. They asked the City to impose more stringen~.' penalties on the students. They also requested. that the Police Department submit incident report's to them so that they can put the students through their judicial processes as well. Joint efforts lilie these should aid in sending the message out early, that disruptive/illegal behavior will not be t~lerated. Everyone agreed that we,need to start now. We should be concerned · about every day, not jJst what might hapPen during graduation week. It should be < a very productive . \ meetmg. \ i I We also have a few general items to work through.

February 8, 1999 Page -2- The Standard Plan is considered a "weak mayor" plan in which the citizens elected a Mayor, a Clerk, Treasurer, and three council members. The Mayor, Clerk and three council members comprise the City Council. All have voting authority. The Mayor's authority is no greater than that of the council members, other than the authority to run the council meetings. The Standard Plan, is still used in a minority of cities. A number of years ago, St. Joseph operated under the Standard Plan. It now operates under Optional Plan A. Optional Plan A is the most common form of government for statutory cities. Optional Plan A still has a weak mayor in the sense that the Mayor does not have any greater power than council members, except to the extent that power is delegated by the Council. In an Optional Plan A city, the Clerk and Treasurer are appointed by the city council. The voters elect the Mayor and four council members. The Mayor and four council members having voting privileges; the Clerk does not. The other alternative is Optional Plan B. There are currently about 16 to 20 cities which have selected Optional Plan B. For a city to select Optional Plan B, it must have a population in excess of 1,000. In a Plan B city, the City Council sets policy and makes legislative decisions. The administration of city affairs is delegated to a City Manager. The City Manager remains accountable to the Council for efficient administration of the City. The City Manager is selected based on his or her qualifications. The City Manager need not be a resident of the city. . The City Manager may be removed at any time by the City Council. If the City Manager had held the position for more than one year, the manager may demand a written summary of charges supporting removal and request a public hearing. Even though there may be a public hearing demand, the City Council still has the authority to remove the City Manager. The City Council's decision is final. The City Manager would not have any recourse unless the City Council based its decision to remove the Manager' upon some improper classification, such as age, race, gender, etc. The City Manager would have the authority to hire and fire employees. The City Manager would appoint department heads, including the Clerk and Treasurer. The City Manager also has authority to appoint the City Attorney, but the appointment of the City Attorney must be confirmed by the City Council., This is a specific statutory exception. The City Manager would execute contracts on behalf of the city. The City Manager would serve as the Chief Purchasing Agent of the city with authority to enter contracts without Council approval in an amount up to $15,000, if the expenditure is authorized within the budget. The City Council has the authority to reduce the manager's purchasing authority to a sum less than $15,000 if it so chooses. The City Manager is responsible for enforcing ordinances and resolutions of the city. The City Manager ,prepares, an annual budget. to be submitted to the" CouncilJor,approvaL > The, City Manager, attends Council meetings. The City Manager may participate in Council discussions, but does not have the right to vote. ' The City Manager may make recommendations to the Council in regard to action. . ! I '·1 ! ,.... rt)!

County Auditpr and Secretary of ~tate. Optional Plan B becomes operative upon the hire or appointment of a Ci1 Manager. ., . Unde ·..optional.Plan B, t~e City Council would not be involved in hiring and firing decisions, except the in the position of City Nanager. Evaluations, promotions, and personnel restructuring would fall Within the City Manager's job duties. \ I I Simila iy, questions regarding action against a resident for an ordinance violation,. enforcement of condit ons set on a conditio»al use permit,. enforcement of right-of-way restrictions, terms or conditions conta' I edin a developers ¡agreement or other contract, would all be duties delegated to the City Manager. . The City. Council could ask questions of the City Manager with re~ard to specific issues, state theirtniOuwithregard J1SPecifiC issues, a"d set general policy governing enforcement issues. The Cig Council would not ¡have to approve each and every expenditure of the city. The City Manager woulå lake purchases on contracts of less than $15,000 so long as funås existed within the budget for the purEhase. The City CoJncil could, by resolution, reduce the management expending authority, but could not. give the Manager! authority Jor purchases greater .than $15,000. The seLion of anoption~Plan Bwould nec"~sitatea review oflhe Codeof6rdinances to assure that prdcedure set forth intpe ordinances are consistent with a Plan B form of government. In many cases, a thority granted.to the Council or City Clerk under the current ordinances would be shifted ,to the Ci Manager.. This shduld, not be, a major project,. but would involve some time and expense of review' g the Ordinance Code. CIearly, Optional Plan BallLs fOr greateI' efficiency in the operation oflhe. city g?vernment. It aJs? . removes much of the adminisl~rativeburden from city operations from the, Council and Mayor. The City Manage would assure contpuity in city government as a new Mayor and/or council members are elected. The presence of a pty Manager would insulate some employees from removal because of i I ~ .~~~¡ ~ : Mayor and City Council February 8, 1999 . Page -4- personal conflicts with council members. Employees and department heads would also recognize that there is a clear line of authority through the City Manager rather than having to be concerned about contradictory instructions from different council members. On the other hand, under Optional Plan B, the City Council and Mayor are delegating much of their day-to-day authority over the operations of the city. There may be a public perception that the elected officials are too removed from city government and would. be unable to effectively,manage the affairs of the city. Finally, the City should' anticipate paying a higher salary to the City Manager than a Clerk/Administrator because of the added responsibility and qualifications. The use of the City Manager may eliminate the need for the position of Deputy Clerk since the Manager would assume much of the responsibilities of the Clerk/Administrator, but some increase in payroll should be anticipated. Please let me know if the Council has any additional questions regarding these issues. Thank you. Very truly yours, RAJKOWSKI HANSMEIER LID. .

The ballot questions must bÇ submitted by Stember 14th, thus making this meeting our only opportunity to discuss th~ issue. I apologize for not having this information in the packet earlier. This issue only cam~ up this week. \ I I A City may initia~e a proposal in one of two ways. The Council may, upon its own motion, submit an optiomil, plan for voter consideration. Alternatively, the voters may require the Council to submit \ the question at an election by presenting a written petition with signatures from a number of rers equal to at least 15 percent of Ihe total number of people voting in Ihe last City election. . Ordinarily, the Council has discretion to determine whether the optional plan should go to the voters at the electi9n. When submitting the optional plan to the voters, the question on the ballot must follow substantially this format: "Shall Optional pLn B, providing for the Council-Manager form of City government,be adopted for the gov rnment of this City? " t There are basically fourl¡tYPes of cities inMinnesota: standard plan statutory cities, Plan A statutory cities, Plan B statutory Cities and ho,e rule charter cities. Weare currently a Plan A statutory city which consists of an elected mayor and four (s9metimes six) elected council members. The clerk and treasurer are appointed offices and neither is a member of the City Council. 's ballot question would, change the city to a Plan B statutory city. The Plan B city COtmcil consists of an e fled mayor and fom (soeætimes six) cooncil members. The Çity Cooncil..bins IŒ ¡e~~ûve pow"" but ppoints a manager who is ¡responsible for overseeing City staff and making hiring decisions. The Plan B fmm of ovenunent is often referred to as the "Council-Manager" plan. \ . . . . . . ·... CITY OF ST. JOSEPH 1 First Avenue NW ì .0. Box 668, St. Joseph City Council t. Joseph.

W~ spent th~ee hours together touring the campus. I also have a meeting set up with St. Johns on the 16th wifh Jim Hardwick and ~rother Isaac. I'm looking forward to that tour as well. I a~ended the Cable Commission meeting on Wednesday night. Tom and Noreen had a number of ,items they were anxiÖus to discuss. They are especially concerned that they be involved in th~ designofthe new¢ity Hall regarding a cable. booth. I assured them that once we ,start discussing desi$11 and layout with the architect, I would be sure to involve them. They are going to ~iSit other Cities to get an idea of the bestlayout and equipment to get. They also indicated th t they would like to start receiving the agendas on a regular basis so that they can scroll the . ite~s on the screen ahe~d of time., They also reported they are IcJoking into purchasing some so twarefrom the Sch091 District that will allow them to put names and titles on the screen during the meeting. They are also working on writing guidelines for ,camera and computer opr-ration so that each operator is consistent. CHad and I met with Ed [Abrams, a transportation en,gineer /p1anner, that is conducting a study onEhe possibility of extynding bus somee to .St.. Joseph from St. Cloud. He is interviewing a nu ber of residentsanq community leaders to gather information on. what the residents need in ermsof bus service. [I'he idea at this early stage is that the bus would run from St. Joseph to Cr ssroads Mall.. From ~here, the residents could take advantage of the shopping opportunities orlcatch a bus toa diffe~ent area of town. He is holding walk-in meetings for public input at a nurnberoflocations. The meeting in St. Joseph is set for Wednesday, September 29 at City hall from 6:30-8:30 PM. Heiis encouraging anyone to come in and speak to him about the issue. As you know, at the 1,~st meeting the Council voted to pull. the buildjng permit of the co¡ctractors fausing the problems on Dale street. I contacted the building inspector on Friday to in orm tl\em of the Council's decision. I was told that the Council do~s. not have the authority to §ull a building permi,t-only the building' official can do that (citing the Uniform Building Co~e). Ron's office a,gr~ed, however, to go out and inform the contractors that they needed to cle¡an uP. their mess and put up silt fences of the permits would be pulled. Council member Loso drove out there on Friday and inclicated that they had cleaned upthe dirt that was spilling ovh ,intoth~ street. Rcn spoke with each ,of the contractors and indicated they were very cofperative. Strong coristruction agreed to put a silt fence, up on. 9/9. Heidalso agreed to indtall a silt fence onth~ vacant lot, but did not give a date. Heid also told Ron that on their se ond lot that it has been leveled and a sprinkler system is being installed. Immediately fol owing, the entire loti will be sodded. Mr. Nelson (Julie Nelson's husband) came into see . w at was being done. We informed him of the measures,that were being taken. He stated that I , , i . it wasn't enough and that he would be talking to the neighbors. He may attend this meeting to . address this issue. Council Agenda Items- Noise Violation Hearing --The Noise Violation hearing is scheduled for 8:30 P.M. The noise ordinance violation was given on Auzust 30 at 2315 at 11 6th Avenue NW. It has been brought to' my attention that during these hearings in the . past,' the' individuals were given an opportunity to address the Council, regardless of whether or not they had requested an evidentiary hearing. The City attorney has advised that unless an evidentiary hearing is requested, the Council should only allow testimony regarding the amount of the citation, and not whether or not the violation occurred. Unless an evidentiary hearing is requested, the Council should assume that the violation did occur. In the past, noise violations have only brought'on a penalty of administrative costs. Historically, the Council has not imposed a monetary penalty on top of costs incurred. If the Council desires to take such action, this would be an ideal time to start such a precedent. The City ordinances state that the Council can establish payment of a civil penalty of up to $1,000 (including the administrative costs). 1 In addition, it is the recommendation of staff that the Council establish a standard administrative fee for the processing of these noise violations. In the past, the violators were assessed the costs for the time of whatever officer responded to the call, as well as the attorney's time. The amount varied, depending on who answered the call and the salary that each receives. The Council may establish a set fee for the administrative costs of these incidents that would apply across the board. Bills Payable and Overtime - Judy took a much needed two days off. She will send the bills and . overtime to you next week. Tuition Reimbursement Policy - I met with the personnel committee about the Tuition reimbursement policy on Thursday morning. A number of changes have been proposed to the current draft that incorporate the old policy as well. The policy that I presented to the personnel committee is in your packet. I will send a copy of the policy with the minor changes from the Personnel Committee to the Council early next week under separate cover, once I have a chance to review the old policy with Judy on Monday. Bank Purchase/Roske Property - I attended the EDA meeting on Wednesday. There was some confusion as to whether or not the Council had authorized the EDA to actually purchase the bank yet. Once the Council officially does this, the EDA will meet to confirm the purchase. The purchase agreements for First State Bank and the Roske property must be approved by the Council. John noted that the purchase price for the First State Bank building has been increased by $10,000 to reflect the inclusion of the furniture. Ridgewood Storage - Fence Request - Al Stelmack is approaching the Council asking for permission to construct a fence on his utility easement. They have had a number of incidents involving theft and vandalism at his site that he believes would be prevented with the installation of the fence. The fence would encroach upon the City's utility easement. A map from Mr. Stelmack has been included in your packet that shows the location of the manhole 1 Ordinance 55- Housing, Maintenance and Occupancy, Section 55.11 Licensing or Rental Units, Subd 10 Suspension or Revocation states «...... Execution of the suspension or revocation may be stayed by the Council on such reasonable conditions as established by the Council, including but not limited to, the payment . of a civil penalty not to exceed $1,000.00 - 2 ~ , .. i I . I loc~ted on his property land the proposed fence. I met with the Mayor, Dick, Ron, and Mr. Ste mack to discuss the Óptions. He is proposing installing a removable fence line all along the po~ionofthe fence that I encroaches upon the easement. The Public Works Department would be able to lift the fencej out to access the sewer line. Although Dick would prefer that the en roachment not be allowed, he has indicated that the fence would be a workable solution if th~ Cou~cil decides to giant this request. I have included a copy of the Easement Ordinance for YOr reTIew. J StT! ASse~mCrlt Pollc ¡for Industrial Park -Joe is putting together a propo$O<!assessment po icy for Council revie"\V.

I- i ] , , , t,.. , If an assessment in contested or there is an adjourned hearing, the following procedure will be followed: . 1. The city will present its case first by calling witnesses who may testify by narrative or by examination, and by the introduction of exhibits. . After each witness has testified, the contesting party will be allowed to ask questions. This procedure will be repeated with each witness until neither side has further questions. 2. After the city has presented all its evidence, the objector may call witnesses or present such testimony as the objector desires. The same procedure for questioning of the city's witnesses will be followed with the objector's witnesses. 3. The objector may be represented by counsel. 4. Minnesota rules of evidence will not be strictly applied; however, they may be considered and argued to the council as to the weight of items of evidence or testimony presented to the council. 5. The entire proceedings will be tape-recorded (video-taped). 6. At the close of presentation of evidence, the objector may make a final presentation to the council based on the evidence and the law. No new evidence may be presented at this point. 7. The council may adopt the proposed assessment at the hearing. . An owner may appeal as assessment to district court pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 429.081 by serving notice of the appeal upon the mayor or clerk of the city within 30 days after the adoption of the assessment and filing such notice with the district court within ten days after service upon the mayor or clerk.

The objectives of internal control are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorizations and recorded properly to permit the preparation of general purpose financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles Management is responsible for making all financial records and related information available to us. We understand that you will provide us with such information required for our audit and that you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that information. We will advise you about appropriate accounting principles and their application and will assist in the preparation of your financial statements, but the responsibility for the financial statements remains with you. That responsibility includes the establishment and maintenance of adequate records and effective internal control over financial reporting, the selection and application of accounting principles, and the safeguarding of assets. Audit Procedures - General . An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amount and disclosures in the financial statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about the number of transactions to be examined and the areas to be tested. We will plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable rather than absolute assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether caused by error or fraud. Because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that a material misstatement may exist and not be detected byus. In addition, an audit is not designed to detect errors, fraud, or other illegal acts that are immaterial to the general purpose financial statements. However, we will infonn you of any material errors and any fraud that comes to our attention. We will also inform you of any other illegal acts that come to òur attention, unless clearly inconsequential. Our responsibility as auditors is limited to the period covered by our audit and does not extend to matters that might arise during any later periods for which we are not engaged as auditors. Our procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in the accounts, and may include tests of the physical existence of assets, and direct confirmation of receivables and certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals, creditors, and financial institutions. We will request written representations from your attorneys as part of the engagement, andthey may bill you for responding to this inquiry. At the conclusion of our audit, we wiU also require oertain written representations from you about the financial statements and related matters. . . ity ofS1, Joseph ¡ eptember 2, 1999 . tentifying and ensJng that the City complies with laws, ~egulations, contracts, and greements, including grant agreements, is the responsibility of management.

They are before . the Council tonight as the City needs to submit them to the County by September 14th. The City attorney and bond counsel have yet to review the language, but the substance should be the same. The first deals with the Y2 cent sales tax. It reads: "Shall the City of St. Joseph be authorized to create a sales and use tax of one half percent and an excise tax of $20 per retail sales of a motor vehicle and to issue general obligation bonds for the acquisition and betterment of the Central Minnesota Events Center? Whenever revenues from the taxes described above are greater than the amount needed to meet obligations for the Central Minnesota Events Center project (including the bonds described above) then the revenues will be used for: '1. A community recreation center; 2. Parks and/or trails." Ehlert asked if we could also use this for libraries. Hiemenz stated that it must be used for a community type facility and or parks/trails. The language of the bill specifies the exact uses that are allowed. Loso asked a question regarding the agreement with the other cities. Hiemenz explained that all of the language regarding the other participating communities is laid out in the Joint Powers Agreement which establishes how the money will be allocated. The issue tonight is just the language itself for the ballot question. Twit stated that he thought the City at one time talked about financing a new city hall with this question. Hiemenz stated thafhad to be takenout as we were the only community requesting this usage and it was holding up the bill. . Twit suggested that we amend the question with the attorney's help to let us use the money for anything allowed by the legislation. Hiemenz stated that he would be getting the formal language at a meeting the following day, but is requesting that the Council approve the language in spirit. Niedenfuer suggested that the Council revisit the issue at the special meeting on September 10. Loso made a motion to accept the language in spirit with the idea that it would be revisited at the next meeting of the Council. Niedenfuer seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. . The second ballot question is regarding the City manager question. Hiemenz explained hat he wanted to make sure the Council had the option of adding this to the ballot in November, even though they hadn't discussed it at length yet. The ballot question would read: "Shall optional Plan B, providing for the Council-manager form of City government, be adopted forthe government of this City?" Niedenfuer asked whether the question had to be stated this way, as she is concerned about the citizens understanding what the question means. Schmidt explained that the language is set by statute. However, if the Council wants this question on the ballot, we can launch a public education campaign beforehand, so they know what the issue is. Twit stated that the main difference between the Administrator and Manager positions is the hiring and firing capability. The Manager holds allofthe hiring and firing authority for City employees. The Council only has that authority over the manager and the City Attorney. Ehlert stated that we can accomplish many of the same goals by staying with Plan A and not adopting Plan B. Niedenfuer made a motion to carry the question over until next Friday so that the Council would have more time to review the issue. Loso seconded the issue and it passed unanimously. Twit questioned the date and time for item c. Outdoor Liquor Permit for the La Playette. The application states October 16-17, which is a Saturday and Sunday. The application should state October 15-16, Friday and Saturday. The times are from 6:00 PM to 1 :00 AM. Weyrens stated that Mr. Zimmer mentioned that there is nothing going on Thursday night. Twit pointed out that the application needs to be signed by the Police Chief yet. Ehl.~rt questioned item, d. astowhether the City is sure that the obstruction was. i.n the seryice line, as the City has a policy whereby the property owner is responsible for the private serVice line. This was confirmed. Hiemenz explainedthafon item f., increasing the purchase price of the bank from $535,000 to . . . $545,000 was for the furniture located in the bank. He and the City Administrator looked at the 2 . i . furTure with Mr. Reinhartl and determined what items would stay.with the City, and which the ban would take with them. Loso stated that he is uncomfortable agreeing to this when he hasn't seer. a list of the furniture to be included. Ehlert agreed. Schmidt stated that she was very c0n,]fortable with the priceland that the City is getting more than $10,000 worth of furniture. Ehlert stated that he would still like to seethe list. Hiemenz stated that although we don't have a list no~, a list would be attac~ed as an addendum to the contract. Twif.f!1ade a motion to ap/?rove the consent agenda, seconded by Loso. The motion passed una Imously. i 6. Approve Minutes- L¿so made a motion to approve aI/ three sets of minutes. Hiemenz seconded the motion, i with a few typographical corrections. The motion passed unanimously. , 7. Bills Payable and Overtime Weyrens indicated thé!Ü another charge would be added to the Bills Payable as we had a mainline sewer back up thisweek that did some damage to resident basements. Our insurance deductible ¡'s $500. . 1 Loso said that as long as We were talking about sewer back ups, why hasn't the 5th Avenue sewer lin~lbeen cleaned yet.Hi~menz stated that the manhole is on private property and the City can't gai~ access to it. . Loso said that there must be some legal recourse that the City can take to cle · n our own sewerline.i Hiemenz stated.that the City attorney looked into this already. Schmidt stated that she would loo~ into the issue and report back to the Council with her findings; we~rens detailed some ofthe bills. She indicated that the City had all of its subdivision maps laminated Whichaceount. far the substantial Kinkas bill. Twft made a motion to approve the bitls pa~able, seconded by Lo~o. The motion passed unanimously. , I . On the call out list, Twitasked whether or not Officers Young and Meyer were atthe same meeting, where one clai~ed one hour .and the other claimed two. Ehlert also asked if their pretence was required atlthe meeting. Hiemenz stated that it was the same meeting and the tim differehce is due to a shift change; and also that the Chief request~d their presence at the me ting. Hiemenz alsoe~plained that the increased part time hours for Daluge and Schley are due to vacation schedules and the shortage of staff. Loso made a motion to approve the cal/outs, sedonded by Twit. The motion passed unanimously. ¡ 8. Public Comments ohthe Agenda- Kevin Blanchette, 113 East Minnesota Street, addressed the Council regardingl the activities of the students during theirfirst week back in town. On Monday evening, he was awakened by foot traffic in front of,his house that lasted until 2:30 AM. At 1 :20 AM there was a group of students congregating in his front yard trampling his hedge. The studentslfled when he turned on the porch light. He spoke with the Police Chief and understands there were a number of calls that night. This made him question whether or , not the City is employing enough officers. He also stated that it's important to remember that the events of last May during graduation week were not a single event. Every weekend is an issue. Thiswas merely one more weekend in a series of problematic days. He stressed that , by starting classes on Wednesday, students arrive too early and have nothing to do. ,This only invites the unruly behavior to start earlier. He asked the City to encourage the school to modify its calendar and start classes at the beginning of a week. In the alternative, there should be more prog~amming forthose students in those days before classes start. He also expressed the hope that the local police officers are documenting the number of contacts they have with residents, as opposed to the number of contacts with students. He stated that he hopedthingsquief down once classes begin, ashe is losing sleep. Hiemenz thanked Mrj Blanchette for his comments and informed him that there is a joint e meeting of the College campuses and the City on Friday, September 2, to address this very topic. Niedenfuer alsb thanked him for his comments and agreed that our response has to I start earlier and that 'fe need to take a preventative and proactive stance to this issues. 3 , , i , , , . David Wilke, 1006 East Dale and Julie Nelson, 1005 Dale St., addressed the Council . regarding the dirt and debris on their street. They stated that they understood the building inspector was going to require them to put up a silt fence, but this hasn't been done. They are frustrated with the dirt being tracked on to their driveways and into their homes. HiE}menz stated that the problem isn't just one contractor, in fact there is more than one. In addition, there are delivery vehicles that drive in and out tracking the dirt down the street. Loso agreed that we aren't justtalking about Hyde and Herges. There are a number of subcontractors involved as well. Loso stated that the City should clean the area and charge it back to the contractors. Niedenfuer agreed stating that this is not the homeowners responsibility when it's the contractors mess. Ehlert suggested pulling the building permits until the problem is solved. Weyrens indicated that each building permit comes with a memo regarding this issue. The contractors should be aware of what their responsibilities are. Loso made a motion to pull the building permits unW the problem is solved, and to give the contractors a half day to clean up the mess or the City would clean it for them and charge it back to the contractor. Ehlert seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 9. 7:30 PM - Authorization of the Bond Sale - Monte Eastvold- Juran & Moody Eastvold presented updates for the Council for the General Obligation Improvement Bonds for Joseph Street, the Business Park and Northland Drive.

With a City cash contribution of $100,000, the issuance amount is $1,340,000. Eastvold reported that tonights requested actions are to pass two resolutions: one which sets when and where the bond sale will occur and the second is to accept the financial services agreement with Juran and Moody. The resolution states that the bonds will be offered for sale on sealed proposals on September 30, 1999. The proposals will be opened at a special meeting on that date at 4:30 PM at St. Joseph City Hall. Eastvold also indicated that the City . still reserves the right, after the bids are opened and prior to award, to increase or reduce the principal amount of the bonds. Hiemenz asked if the City waits until February because the Northland bids come in too high, can we still do this. Eastvold stated that yes, the City could reissue or cancel the entire sale,. The City has three years to spend the proceeds. Loso made a motion to accept the financial services agreement, seconded by Ehlert. The motion passed unanimously. Twit made a motion to accept the resolution setting the time and place for the sale of the bonds. The motion was seconded by Ehlert and passed unanimously. 10.

Mr L mbert commissioned a survey by David Regan to provide a legal description for the 19cation of the roadway where it is presently located. Mr. Lambert is asking for the 1unci!' s apPrQval oJ[ the location of the easement. i I a letter provided b~ City Attorney John Scherer, he expressed concern that the easement ecroached .µpon Cityibuildings. He advised that if the City is inclined to grant the request, it s10uld be conditioned upon the owner of the property signing an agreement acknowledging t~at none of the existing buildings which the City has on its property encroached into the easement area, or ifth,e encroachment exists, that the City will be allowed to maintain"the btildingS at their curr~nt location indefinitely.

Otherwise, the unbalaç.ced amount can always be wade up in the revolving funds. Jeyrensindii:åted thalline item 3 :361l' County (¡rantsc RoadMaintenance changed for · n xt year from$5,300Ito $6,457. Weyrens also asked the CounciLif they would be interested Î1 raising liquor licen~e fees. We raise $1,700/year now and are significantly lower than St 2 I ¡ I I . , Cloud ($3,200-$4,300), Waite Park ($2,500) and Saulk Rapids ($3,000). She explained that a .. public hearing is necessary to raise the fees. There are other licenses that the Council could impose as well: restaurant, gas stations etc. Weyrens made the assumption that the Council would be comfortable raising the fees to $2,000 in the budget. Loso asked ifWeyrens was comfortable with the revenue forecasts for 2000. Weyrens said yes. She expects that LP A aid number will increase. Hiemenz asked whether the department heads were comfortable with the cuts that Weyrens suggested. She indicated that they are. Hiemenz indicated that the slight overage the City has in the budget is acceptable and that the remainder could be taken care of in the rollover Ehlert stated that another budgetary consideration came up with the Park Board meeting. Dave Hideman,the Summer Recreation Coordinator submitted his resignation stating that he wanted to spend more time with his family. He encouraged the Board to re-evaluate the budget as it hasn't been raised in a long time. As the community is looking for more programs and services, there has to be money in the budget to accommodate these desired changes. This ultimately means more staff, which are hard to retain at such low hourly wages. Weyrens suggested that the City could start charging the other participating jurisdictions. Ehlert indicated that it is unclear whether or not St. Wendel Township will be involved with the program. . Loso suggested that the overall program be re-evaluated, commenting that the City can't be expected to provide everything to everyone. People have very diverse interests. Weyrens stated that although that point is true, parents like to have a wide variety of activities for their children. Ehlert stated that the standard fee now is $40.00. One possibility might be to re- evaluate the fee structure. Parents could pick and choose individual programs that they want to attend for different prices, instead of having one standard fee for the whole package. Weyrens also suggested asking the school board if they would hold some of their activities in St. Joseph. Ehlert stated that he mentioned that already to John Wahl (School Board Member) Weyrens asked if the Council wanted to increase the budgetary item now and see if the City can get commitments from the School District and other participating communities. Loso suggested that the Park Board evaluate this during the winter months when their agendas are lighter and come up with some solutions. Ehlert agreed with this suggestion. Ehlert also indicated that one of Dave's assistants expressed interest in taking over the program. The Park Board is putting together a job description for summer program leaders. Ehlert requested that a plaque be prepared for Dave Hiedeman and his assistant in appreciation for all of his work over the last five years. Loso stated that he brought the Emergency Operations Plan in to the Administrator. He asked that copies be. distributed to the Council members and to department heads for review and suggestions. Loso indicated that it should be fairly comprehensive already as he modeled it . after the County Plan. 3 ~ . (Le~y ìssue -) W eyren~, asked the Councìl to make a decìsìon regardìng the 'levy. for East Mìf1esota Street that ~onte Eastvold raìsed at the last meetìng. Dìd the Councìl want to ke~ the levy and use tlie funds for other projects or reduce. the levy.

She stated that both buìldìngs and equìpment can be tìed ìnto those tYPrs of financìng bond~. Loso asked where the contract wìth the archìtect ìs at.

She stated that it ìs 0 helpful to come toibudgettìme and have so much of the work done already. Weyrens ha done a great job. Hìemenz, Loso and Ehlert agreed and thankedWeyrens as well. I Wryrens stated that the, Councìl should make a decìsìon about what to do regardìng the Fìre D~partment $239.00su,rplus. Ifthere ìs a surplus in the fund, the city actually loses control odhe fund. In ordertoj prevent this, the Cìty can ìncrease the pensìon of the firefighters to elì ìnate the surplus.. Ehlert asked why the Cìty can't just antìcìpate and plan for a deficìt ìn . th budget cyc1e.Weytens ìndìcated that has been done, however dìfferent events wìll affect , th, fund each year makìng ìtìmpossìble to predìct. Weyrens stated that an ìncreaseìnthe pe sion of$50 would ~limìnate the surplus. Hiemenzmadea motion to increase the pe sions by $50 to eliminate the surplus. Ehlert seconded and the motion passed unrlnimously. ! 5. p4b1ic Comments. B~J1 Anderson, 116 East Ash St, stated that he heard thatthe City was th~nkìng ofbuìldìng a skateboard park and wanted to knowìfthìswas true. He stated that abput 45% of the kìds here skateboard and that there really ìsn't anywhere they can do ìt now.

['0 @~~:MAYOR!HIEMENZ AND CHAD: , , Please et me know' if there are any other issues regarding this contract. If it has not already been approvfd by the Town Board, it should be forwarded to the Town Clerk and placed on the Board'l agenda as soon as possible. It may also be necessary to ~llow Gohman onto the property to commence surface earth work before bIosingto keep this project on schedule. That is something that we can look at if necesstry. Under that scen~rio, I would suggest that we grant the license to allow the work to proceer with the understanding that if the transaction does not go through for some reason (such as failure of the bank to receive regulatory approval to relocate), then Gohman would have to restore] the property. Quite: honestly, I don't believe that approval will be an issue, and it is for that reason that I would fed comfortable with the work commencing, pursuant to awritten license agreement, before the property actually closes. We can see later if that becomes an issue. 1 - · JHS · 0.

I would also note that the purchase price was increased by $10,000, to represent the purchase of the furniture. For tax purposes, that additional consideration was based primarily upon the building and land as opposed to the personal property and furniture.

The notice was responded to by a diverse group of communities, organizations and individual interests. The first step in the process is to meet with all of the interested stakeholders in the plan to understand their interests and goals and outline the planning process and timeframes. This meeting will start that planning process. The intent of this meeting is to provide general information, identify and address questions and begin to define the scope for the plan. . The kickoff meeting is scheduled for 7:00 AM on Thursday September 16, 1999 at the City of Cold Spring city hall. The meeting will be held in the council chambers. We have scheduled this meeting early so that attendees might have an easier time arranging work schedules. Future meeting schedules will be discussed at this meeting.

SAINT CLOUD, MINNESOTA 56301 TELEPHONE: (320) 252-0880 VITDD EQUAL HOUSING September 7, 1999 FAX: (320) 252-0889 OPPORTUNITY Dear Community Leader: Our area is one of the fastest-growing in the State. The economy is strong and the number of current and projected jobs continues to increase. Mortgage rates are low. New construction is evident all around us. However, not everyone is able to participate in this prosperity. Perhaps it is the workers who can't find housing. These might include recent grads fÌ"om one of the local colleges who can't find or perhaps afford an apartment in our area. Maybe it's the next-door-neighbor's son or daughter who would like to move back to the area to start their career, but can't find housing. Maybe it's someone who has obsolete job skills or would like to train for a better job and needs to be housed during this period of re-training. Perhaps it is someone who recently lost their spouse and needs time and housing to establish themselves or stabilize their family during a period of transition. . Employers who can't find new workers won't be able to participate in this prosperity. If they can't find workers, then committing to expanding their buildings or to make other capital investments during these periods of low-interest rates will not make sense. In order to understand the issue of affordable housing, the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, the Greater Minnesota Housing Fund, and the St. Cloud Housing and Redevelopment Authority are jointly hosting a community forum. The forum will be held on Tuesday, September 28, 1999, at 7:00 p.m. in the Weidner-Clark-Edelbrock Suite of the St. Cloud Civic Center. The purpose of the Forum is to provide the opportunity for us all to understand more about affordable housing and the need for affordable housing in our area. On behalf of the sponsors, I invite you to attend this important forum. . Elected officials and other community leaders fÌ'om the cities and counties around St. Cloud, as well as the general public, are being asked to attend this important forum. You are welcome to bring other interested participants with you as well. The agenda for the evening is included with this letter. You will see that there are outstanding speakers who have volunteered their time to help us to make the best use of the two-hour commitment that we are asking for you to make on September 28th.
