If . algoes well, we are asking that the City appoint Ms. Kruse as the new compost site supervisor S ren - Seren is requestin~' a cable franchise with the City. The Cable Commission and I met with r ¡presentatives from Sere1 this week to discuss their proposal. Cress Gackle,their Franchise and RjegulatoJ.y guy, will be p~esent to. address the Council. . The Cable Commission will also be prepared to a1¡1swerany questions you,may have regarding this franchise. Currently our franchise fee for US Cable is 3r' i qedar Street Vacation/ ELement - Jo~ Scherer prepared a.. notice' of completion of vacation and a ~solutio n a ppr 0 .v m' g.thevac atio. n.of. a.

At the fequest of the adjacent property owner, we also extended the vacation 15ft to the orth East. The dia~ram?of the e¡}sement andtrash enclosure, as well as the meeting notice and minutes tom the January 20 me9ting are in your packet. 'enior Disorientation - 4 number ofissues have arisen surrounding this year's disorientation celebration (i riday, May 19th). At a recent meeting at the College of St. Benedict a number of suggestions weremade. iirst, it was. suggested that the City blocl<0ff a portion of College Ave~ue (fr011lMhmesota Street to Ash) ora period of time. This was suggested with the idea in mind thatthestudents wiUthen have a place to ay tl¡d.r gOOdbyes.. The .)areawould be isolated and. easier t.o m.. onito. r for the police. There wOUld. . ;100 not e the safety issues that ~rise when cars are trying to pass through the area.· Mark Zimmer has requested ~hat if the City does decide to close .the street, that they do so only afterlO:30 PM, ashe has} significant ~hamber event that eve~ing which will require the street parking and access. 1 am waiting to hear back ~r. o.m the Co unty.....o.n, th..e.e...x..a ctp. r.ocess to.Cl. os e th .e.street. O.ff.. A.n..othe r. is su .e. th.at.wa. s r. ai.s.....ed.....iS..t...h. e.p..,oS.S,.ib ility f extending the bar tim~. for an hour for this evening.. This is not to say that they would be allowed to drink onger, but rather that the bar could keep them inside longer (not drinking), and thus keep them from . ouring into the street aU at once. At the CORE meeting last Wednesday night, these ideas were also '. discussed, The response :from the College administration, students and the residents was. a positive one. Chief Will will also be present to discuss the other arrangements that have been made in terms of . enforcement for this event. (I can't believe how fast the school year went!) There will be 12 state patrol officers and 8 officers from the sheriff's department in town for the evening as well. City Hall Bonds and Lease Agreement - Assuming the public meeting next Tuesday night goes well, hopefully the City will be in a place to decide on a bond issuance for the City Hall project. I have included in your packet an issuance of$995,000 at 1.0% and 2.5% over 15 and 20 years, as well as the last basement . schematic and the cost projections. The lease agreement is lengthy and there are also a number of errors. Throughout the document it states the issuance is $1.3 million. That number will change as soon as the Council decides on the issuance amount. The Council can set the bond amount this evening and approve the lease agreement with changes. Glenn Deutz - Glenn requested to be on the. Council agenda again concerning the Community Center. He will be present to address the Council. Closed Session - I put the AFSCME Contract on the agenda in case the meeting was short. We do have the separate meeting on the 17th scheduled to discuss the contract. If Council wants to discuss the contract we can, if not, we will pull this item. Finally-- I will not be able to attend this meeting. Our final new member class for our Church is that night-and ifwe aren't there-we have to wait a year for the next one (and it means about $1,000 more in fees to get married therefor non members!) Judy has agreed to sit as Acting Clerkfor the meeting. If you have any concerns, please don't hesitate to. call me. Miscellaneous Meeting Grounds Complaint - I received a call from a resident, Monica Cofell (and David Coffell) on 2nd . Ave SE. She has a daughter with severe asthma. Every time the Meeting Grounds roasts their .coffee beans, her daughter is subject to an asthma attack. She explained that because of the particulates in the air, it triggers her asthma. She also indicated that she has a number of neighbors that have complained about the smell. She stated over and over again that she loves the Meeting Grounds and thinks it is a great asset for the community. She is just wondering about the appropriateness of such activity (burning the grounds) in town. She stated that she thought they originally roasted the grounds at their facility in St. Cloud, but eventually moved it to St. Joseph because of the complaints of the smell. I asked her if she thought it might be a workable solution if the Meeting Grounds were to do their roasting in the late evening hours, when people are not as likely to be out and about (and children won't be outside playing). She thought that might work, but again suggested that it might be more appropriate for them to be doing the roasting itself at another more remote location. I informed her that I would be letting the Council know about her calland also getting in touch with the owners of the Meeting Grounds. She was very nice and repeated over and over again that she didn't want to get the Meeting Grounds in trouble,but she does have concerns for the health of her daughter and the livability of the neighborhood. Request for City services - St. Joseph Auto Sales has requested information regarding the cost of City water and sewer. Amy Schaeffer would be doing the estimate from SEH. She indicated that such information would require 2-3 hours of work (assessment estimate, tearing up and reconstructing road to extend the stub, etc.). I called the owner and manager of St. Joseph Auto Sales to let them know that in order to get the figures, SEH would spend 2-3 hours at approximately$79/hr.rate. They would be required to reimburse the City for these services. I have not heard back from the owner as of Thursday, April 27th. Finally-Officer Gustin's training that was questioned at the last meeting --this is a state mandated course that every officer had to attend. It was actually entitled "Defensive Tactics." All of the Officers are required to take this course (or something similar) every three years. Have a good weekend everyone! . - 2 i ¡\ ' ~f ~ ! I i . ~ ¡ ¡ ~I Se re", I nnovations, Inc.

Joseph appro-..e the Cable Francnise application from Seren, pro'.1ded they are able to comply with all Cable ajwell as any other appljcable city ordinances. The Cable Com ission bases this recdmmendation on the fOllowing points: * The residen s of the City ha-..e requested additional cable. options that will provide ¡hem with intemet access. * Seren is ab e to pro'.1de high speed intemet access with a distribution syst m consisting of fiber ~Ptic links and a coaxial cable sy stem. tiS service is offered a,..t.... areasonable and competiti-..e rate. * US Cable is unable to pro'.1de this system in the immediate or near future ¡ * The City of S1. Joseph has nothing to lose. * Seren has abreed to match any existing franchise fees being paid by other companieïi as long as it keeps them on a le-..el playing field. . The City of 1. Joseph has much tr gain. · Seren has se""ral options a",lIabl" to their customen; including, basic cable, baJic plus, entertainment paks, digital music etc. In addition to the cable tel~sion service they also offer high speed internet access as well as telep~one. Se-..eral package options are available at reasonable and competiti-..efrices. * Seren provi es three (3) separate channels for public access, educational acc ss and go-..ernment access. Seren will connect the edUcational ace sschannel to the cu~..,.ent Distric.! 742 access prUl,;ded in S1.

As a result of their monitoring syst ms, Seren is often able to diagnose and correct problems I with their servic before they are noticédby their customers. The Cable Com.: ission also recommerd$ that the City of S1. Joseph negotiates with Seren on Uile following: . * At the time US Cable was gi-..en a .franchise they pro'.1ded the City of St. Joseph with Public Access start up funds in the amount of $10,000.00. .Uld Seran b willing to offer funding! in a lump sum for the Public Access annel, and 0 comparable equipmellt or services. * Would Ser n be willing to pro\1de the City Offices with free internet access I Thursday May 4, 2000 America Online: CarlStJoe Page: .1 Thank you for your consideration of this recommendation. .

Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the City Council for the City of St. Joseph met on Thursday, April 20th, 2000 a17:00 p.m. in the St. Joseph City Hall. Members Present: Mayor Kenneth J. Hiemenz, Bob Loso, Cory Ehlert, Ken Twit, Mary Niedenfuer, and Clerk-Administrator Cari Schmidt and Deputy Clerk Judy Weyrens. Others Present: Jennifer Thienes, Jason Kubat, Jim and Marianne Graeve, Brian and Sheryl Czech, Glenn and Dorothy Deutz, Larry Hosch, David Leapaldt, and Stephanie Howe. Mayor Hiemenz reconvened the local Board of Review and Equalization meeting that was continued from Tuesday night. Hiemenz stated that the City Assessor made two changes to contested assessments. First, he reduced Donna Eveslage's property (84.53936.000) from $97,400-$95,400. Secondly, he reduced the City's property (84.53430.066) from $53,200 to $48,000. Loso made a motion to accept the changes made by the City Assessor. The motion was seconded by Ehlert and passed unanimously. Hiemenz closed the Board of Review and Equalization at 7:05 PM. 2. Approve Agenda -Schmidt stated that there were two changes to the agenda. First, item 4b on the Consent Agenda - the application for the outdoor liquor permit for the La Jam is no longer being requested. Second, the architects from GL T will be in attendance to make a presentation of a possible new layout for City Hall. In the interest of their time, Schmidt stated that it would be beneficial to place them directly after the KDV presentation. Ehlert · made a motion to approve the agenda with the changes, seconded by Niedenfuer. The motion passed unanimously. Hiemenz also reported that Gary Will the new Police Chief started on Monday and invited Will to the podium to speak. Will stated that he was enjoying his first week in St. Joseph and invited anyone who hadn't already, to stop by and say hello. The Council welcomed Will. 3. KDV Presentation ;- Jennifer Thienes presented the Audited Financial Statements and Memorandum on A9counting Policies and Procedures and Internal Control. Thienes reported that in planning and performing the audit for the year of 1999, they considered its internal control in order to determine the auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing their opinion on thefinaqcial statements. They noted certain matters involving internal control and its operation that th~y consider reportable conditions. Reportable conditions involve matters relating to deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls that, in their judgment, could adversely affect the City's ability to record, process, summarize and report on financial data consistent with assertions of management in the financial statements. Thienes reassured the Council that "reportable conditions" sounds worse than they are. They found three this year: authorized check signatures, lack of segregation of accounting duties and the failure to designate:an official depository. First, small Cities almost always run into the problem of the lack¡of segregation of accounting duties. . This is mainly due to small staff sizes. The City Council is aware of this condition and has taken certain steps to compensate for the lack of segregation, but due to the small staff needed to handle all of the accounting duties, the costs of'obtaining desirable segregation can often exceed the benefits which could be derived. However, the City Council and Administration must remain. aware of the situation and should continually monitor the accounting system. Second, the City has to designate its official depositories on an annual basis. The City did · not designate Juran.and Moody as an official depository for the City's funds. Thienes noted that this looks like its being taken .care of on this agenda. Finally, the third reportable , 1 . . . . , condition is in regard to authorized check signatures. Minnesota Statute Section A 12.271, · Subd.1 requires all. disbursements made by the City be made on orders dr~wnby the Mayor and ClerklTreasurer.IThe City's FireDepartmentmaintainsa checking account, which issues checks without the· signatures. of the. Mayor and the Clerk. . To be in. compliance. with State Statutes, KDV recommends that the Clerk/TreasurerandMayor are made authorized signers on this account or that expenditures made fromthis account are paid out of the City's regular checking.i I I Twit asked if this waS a new law because they have. been doing this since. the beginning. I Thienes statedthatthis should have been caught on previous audits if that is the case. I Thienesreported that the City's general fund continued a trend in a steadily increasing fund balance with a $203,526 increase in 1999, A majority of surplus can be attributed to $196,000 in proceed~ received from the sale of the Roske property . The City also kept general fund expenditures $40,000 und.er budget,contributingtothe fund's overallh.ealth. Thienes noted that of the $1,727,668 general fund balance at December 31, 1999. $1,222,015 is reserved or designated forspecificexpenditures,such aswor~ing capital, capitalexpenditures,l fire and debt service. The unreserved, undesignated portion of the fund balance represents 4.5 months of expenditures. Thienesstated that they believe that this.is a healthy fund balan~e to maintain. Thienes reported that while most sources remained relatively consistent from yearto year, the increase in special assessments had an impact on the total percentages, which resulted in a decrease in the charges for services'. percentage of total revenue. The City's general fund expenditures by department fluctuated very little as well. Public Safety remains the largest component of the general fund expenditures. This consistency from yeé;3r to .year in both sources and uses of funds, is .evidence of a structured, and adhered to, budget process. , ¡ · Thienes reported thåt the City's enterprise funds have shown improved. performance over the past severalyears.fThe refuse fund has consistently shown a profit overthe lastfouryears, enabling the City to ¡ransfer funds to aid· in the payment of revenue. bonds. The Water fund charged as the City increased the water rates. The City went from an operating loss in 1996 to operating income the last three years. . However, in 1999, operating expenses began to increase. While the fund remained profitable, its operating performance is once again trendi~g.dovmward, even when depreciation is taken out of the equation. Thienes recommended that the City continue to monitorrates as well as operating .expenses to ensure. the fund's! profitability in the future. i The Sewer Fund 11 a's shown operating losses for each of the pastfour years. Due to the nature and cost of the sewerfund assets, it is difficult to establish sewer rates that are sufficient to. cover replacement of the assets represented by depreciation expense. Ideally, sewer revenues should cover all operating. expenses, including depreciation. ... However, depreciation of seWer fund assets is a difficult cost to recover from system users since there are relatively few u~ers in relationto the cost of assetreplacement. Attempting to recover such costs fromus~rs would likely result in unrealistically high sewer rates.. KDV recommends that t~e City Council and Administration continually evaluate the performance of thisJund to ensure the fund is at a minimum, covering operating expenses. Twit asked if the Ci~ShOUld be budgeting fordepreciation,Thien~s said ideally, yes, but that this is difficult todo¡ Ehlert asked how long it wilL take us to get to where we need to be. Weyrens reportedtratthe City established a five year plan, .and that it would.rnost likely take the five years. I I ì Thienes stated that its. importanfto remember that most sewerfaCilities. are. built with grant I · dollars and that thqsedollars are eventually used up. In the event that you would have to replace the facilities,.thegrant dollars would most likely be available again. This is subjective I 1 I I I I I ; i , . . . I I i I I information that is harcUo put down on paper to reflect the situation accurately. It's difficult to · explain retained earnings when you have to factor in future grant dollars. Hiemenz stated that it might be a good idea to alert the Council to the changes that will be taking place in regards to GASB. Thienes stated that on June 10,1999, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued Statement of Governmental Accounting Standards No. 34 - Basic Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis for State and Local Gpvernments. GASB no. 34 establishes new requirements for the annual financial reports of state and local governments and represents the mostsignificant change in the way financial information has been presented to the public in the history of governmental accounting. For the City of St. Joseph, GASB no. 34 implementation is first required for the year ending December 31, 2004. Prior to the implementation, they recommend the. City review the requirements of GASB no. 34 and consider the implications of its many changes. Prior to the effective date, the City will be required to implement a number of new policies, practices and techniques as part of,the process. KDV has developed a plan that will help with the implementation in thr~e separate steps. Each step presents issues we believe the City I needs to address and prepare for the year 2004. Twit asked if this meé;lns the City should be budgeting more for auditing costs and personnel time. Thienes stated. that this certainly will take more time,. but it's difficult to determine an exact number. Loso made 8 motion ,to accept the audit for the year ending December 31, 1999 from Kern , De Wenter, Viere, Ltd. Ehlert seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 4. GL T Presentation _! David Leapaldt, from GL T Architects was present to address the · Council, Hiemenz stated that earlier in the week, David, Stephanie, Schmidt and himself met to discuss some possibilities for the new City Hall facility. GL T presented a new layout that seems like a workable plan and they asked if GLT could come tonight to present it. Leapaldt stated that the main change is to the lower level of the current bank facility. There are two conference rooms in the basement that are separated by a wall. This wall could be knocked out and the] Council Chambers could be placed in this space. This space would be approximately 840. square feet and would seat 42-54 people. The conference table would move to the middle ~oom where the break room was formerly. . The current break room in the bank would remain as the break room for the new City hall. . No changes were planned for the upstairs from the last schematic that was presented. The only change would be if the City would want to flip flop the Police Department and Administration so that the Police would be on the side of the building with the drive up window. If the City would plan .for a future attached garage for them, ¡twould make sense to have the Police Department on this side of the building. Twit pointed out a rT)iscalculation in the preliminary cost projections. Leapaldt stated that the General construction with removal of the driveup overhang and the mod ification to the lower level would be approximately $329, 212. Schmidt stated that she had Monte Eastvold run a million dollar issuanceata 1.0% growth rate and a 2.5% growth rate. A$1 ,000,000 bond issuance would provide $356,165 for the remodeling of City Hall. This would leave enough for contingency and not be an overage that would warrant a penalty for over issuance. A million dollar bond issuance over twenty years would raise a $1 ,000,000 homeowner's taxes $6.06/month or $72.71 annually (at a 2.5% annual tax capacity I rate). A million dollar bond issuance at 1% for a $100,000 home would · cause a $6.91 monthly increase or $82.91 annually. Schmidt stated that the main concern at the public meetingVvras that the project was too costly. This plan is considerably scaled back 3 . . . . I I · land is attractive lor a pUn1be, 01 reasons. Firsl it puts everything in the same bunding and is la good use. of the space. Second, the Council chambers has been incorporated and .makes ¡the basement better utilized. Finally, the layout upstairs with the Police on the side of the !driveup window would allow for future expansion. Ehlert stated that he would like to see a million dollar issuance at15 years instead of 20. This will save a lot of money in the long run. Loso stated that the Council should present this plan at the public meéting on May3rd. 5. Approve Consent Agenda a. American Legion - Gambling Renewal þ. Resolution approving Juran and Moody as an official City depository c. Mayor's appointment - Nicole Minier to the Cable Commission Hiemenz stated that the Mayor's appointment should read "interim" appointment. Loso made a motion to approve the consent agenda, seconded by Ehlert. The motion passed unanimously. 6. Approve Minutes -Twit made a motion to approve the minutes of April 6,2000. Ehlert seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 7.1 Bills. Payable and Overtime/Callouts Twit made a motion to approve the bills payable 28194 through 28236. Loso seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. · Loso asked when the City acquired the Northland Outlots. He knew we were in negotiation for them but hadn't heard one way or the other. Hiemenz stated thathewas sure this was I reported on. Schmidt stated that the City did take titlé to the lots ~nd would provide the I Council with that information. Schmidt apologized if that information was not provided previously. Weyrens stated that staff is requesting a $2,000 expenditure for a computer for Chief Gary Will. There is $7,000 left in the computer fund now butstaff is not sure how much th.e new system withSartell will cost. Twit asked how many computers are theré now. Weyrens explained that there are three. There hasn't been one in the Chief's office for some time as Brad never used the office. Will explained that in thé week he has been working, there have been moments where both office computers are being used to write reports. Schmidt stated that there is also a need for the Chief to have a computer that only he can have access to and one that also has internet capability. Twit asked why a modem could not be purchased for ope of the other computers until Wé move to the new building. Will stated that this wouldworkifornow. Loso stated that he trusts Weyrenscomputerknowledge. Loso moved to authorize ,the expenditure for a new compl.Jter for Chief Gary Will. Niedenfuer seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. Twit questioned thei handcuff training for Officer Gustin. Schmidt stated that she would get more information about the training and whether ornot this was part of her new FTO position. Twit made a motion to approve the overtime and cal/outs, seconded. by Loso. The motion passed unanimously. 8 Public Comments[onthe Agenda -- There were no public comments on the agenda. I · ! 9 Glenn Deutz - Glehn Deutz addressed the Council reading a prepared statement concerning the City's interest fôr a community center. Deutz asked thé Council whether or not they 4 . . . . . I I I tOUld staff ànd maintain a community center If the huilding was built Maryanne Krebsbach · ¡has generously offered to donate the property to the City for such a facility, but the offer cannot be expected tq be open forever. Deutz stated that he would be willing to contact !potential contributors, .but did not want to do so without the assurance that the City would support it once it was built. Deutz stated that he believes this is a quality of life issue for the City of S1. Joseph. . I ¡LOSO stated that it would be difficult at this time to guarantee anything without seeing some ¡numbers. How much will it cost to maintain and staff. The Council would be irresponsible if Ithey committed to something they didn't have more information on. Niedenfuer stated that she has strong feelings about this issue and seriously believes that a facility is needed for the seniors and the youth in the community. A dining hall, gymnasium and library would be ~ great addition to the community. Niedenfuer stated that there are legal considerations to look at as well, such as whether the City would be able to take title outright or whether they would have to buy it for a nominal amount. Twit asked for reassurance that they aren't talking about a pool again. Deutz said no and added that they are mainly looking for a facility to serve a noon meal to the seniors. , Catholic Charities would serve the noon meal. Niedenfuer added that the Great River Library System is looking for.another.branch location. Hiemenz stated that the City is currently supporting the Boys and Girls Club and this facility might be able to accommodate their increasing numbers. Ehlert stated that he agrees that this would be a great asset.to the community. not only for the seniors, but also for the youth. He stated that the Park Board is looking at hiring a · Director that may .be able to help coordinate some of these activities. The Lions, Legion and Rec Association may also like to participate in such a project. I Ehlert asked whether the Council was ready to commit to this tonight. . Twit stated thatthey can express favor fo~ the project individually, but without more information they cannot make an official Council decision. Niedenfuer stated that perhaps this should be a ballot question in November. HiemEmz stated that maybe we should ask the people if theywould be willing to support a 'Y2 cent sales tax to support such a community center. Niedenfuer stated that this facility would also be a great space to do some community education. I Deutz agreed to gather some more information for the Council to consider and bring it back to J them at a future date. 1 . Goals ofthe Cable :c:ommiSS¡Òn - Tom Nahan of the Cable COmmission addressed the Council. He stated that in December of 1998, the Cable Commission was established and set out goals for themselves. They have made a lot of progress during that time and are now looking for some dir,?ction from the Council. The initial goals were: to improve the quality of sound and picture, to increase the number and types of meetings broadcasted andre· broadcasted, to document and receive approval for cable commission procedures and to increase the type and amount of communication from the City to the public. The Cable commission would now like to define new goals for the remainder of the year and needs some feedback from the Council on setting priorities. Should they work on the ability to edit broadcasts and display messages on screen during videotaped meetings. Should they increase the number of decks and video broadcast options? Should they upgrade the software system for bulletin board messages? Should they strengthen the broadcast range and propose giving additional cable company options to the public? Should they look into robotic cameras? I · Niedenfuer stated that she thinks the Cable Commission has done an excellent job. She 5 ~ . . . I I · ¡lOUld like to see a cla"'ý introduction and perhaps the names of the speakers underneath ¡during meetings. Loso stated that he would like to see more of apublic commentary program ¡where the department: heads or Council gave information to the public, beyond what happens ¡at the Council meetings. This could be done in a "call in show" format. , Ehlert stated that he would also like to say that they are doing a great job. The meetings are definitely being watched and the City business is getting a lot more exposure. Hiemenz stated that he would also like to thank the Cable Commission for their good job. Ehlert suggested that in ligh~ of the full agenda ahead, that the Cable Commission let the Council absorb the information and get back to them perhaps on an individual basis. 11. Brian Czech - Czech addressed the Council regarding his neighbors barking dogs and the police enforcement of: the problem Czech stated that they had been in front of the Council before when their neighbor asked for the variance for their third dog. . At that time, the Police Department told them that there was no record of them ever having complained about the dogs at that residence, when in facUhey had complained a number of times. In the past month, they have call~d the police on two separate occasions. The first call the police never came. When he called to check on where they were, the officer told them that she parked a block away to see if she could· hear the dogs. The second time they called the officer pulled into the driveway, whIch caused the dog to bark even more. Sergeant Jeff Young told them that the dog's natural inclination would be to bark when an officer pulls in the driveway. Czech stated that he was very disturbed as it seemed to him that Young was laughing at him and not taking the situation seriously. Czech stated that he is also disturbed as he believes that if this were a party house, the situation would probably be different. However, in his view, a noise violation is a noise violation. Czech stated that he has called twice already this year and at least six. times the year before. · Twit asked the Czechs what they would like done differently. Czech stated that this is a vicious dog and that something should be done. Twit stated that the argument could be made that as long as the dog doesn't go into their yard, there should be no problem. Czech argued that the dog is not atax.payer in the City. Czech stated he is concerned about the lack of a paper trail for this issue. Niedenfuer stated that this has come up before and that rules are rules. This is no longer just a neighborhood issu~. Czech stated that the Mayor told them to come to the meeting. Schmidt stated that the City now has a new Police Chief Gary WilL The City is hoping that some of the issues rrgarding policies and procedures as well as reporting will improve with Gary now on board. : Ehlertstated the Police need to start sending a clear enforcement i I message. 1+ Cory Ehlert - Ehlert vacated his Council seat and addressed the Council at the podium. I Ehlert stated that hewould like to request to go on the bag system instead of being required to use the can system for refuse. Although he does have a rental license because he has two roommates that he rents to,. Ehlert argued that his situation is different than other landlords in town in that this is also his home. He and his roommates are hardly ever home and don't produce erlOugh garbage to justify the can system. The bag system would be much more econom.icaL Ehlert stated again that his situation is different in that this is his primary residence. One of the concerns when the requirement was made was to prevent stockpiling of garbage. Since this is his home, the Council can be sure that he isn't going to , do that. Loso stated that if h~ is asking to go on the bag system that Ehlert will have to certify to the . Council that he isn?t stockpiling or hoarding garbage. Twit asked what would keep all of the other landlords from doing the same thing. Ehlert stated that, again, his situation is different · because he has an ¡owner occupied rental license. There are not very many of those in town. 6 1 . . . . . ¡Hiemenz stated that the motion that was made regarding this on June 4, 1998 was for the ¡"refuse rate for three units or less, Rental units - $15.00 per month, number of units based on ¡number of kitchens." [iiemenz stated that this doesn't even mention the can or the bag Isystem. Weyrens added that although it isn't mentioned, the intent was to require the Ilandlords to use the $15.00 can system. I .. ILoso made a motion to allow Ehlert, as an owner occupied landlord, to move to the bag system and be given an exemption to the can system requirement. Loso added that these situations will be taker on a case by case basis and that this decision should set not precedent for the future. Twit seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. 13. Mayor's report - Hiemenz reported that following the last City Council meeting, he received acall from a resident thanking the Council for the way in which they handled the Rose Viehauser rental situation. He wanted to be sure to pass that on to the Council. Twit stated that he also received that same phone call. 14. Council Reports - Niedenfuer reported that the Farmer's Market had been given a $5,000 grant from the Initiative Foundation. This is great news and also means that some of the funds that were part of the original HCP grant will be replaced. The Farmers Market purchased a used tent from a renaissance club that will be used for shade at the market. They are very excited about the great growers they have lined up as well as the programs. Niedenfuer also reported that she attended a contract for HCP in Little Falls. There are unlimited grant possi~ilities that HCP and other organizations can take advantage of. It's just a matter of knowing where to find them. Loso had no report. Ehlert had no report. Twit stated that the EDA Board met and there is a lot of interest in the industrial park. Things are starting to fill up. . 15. Clerkl Administrator Report· Schmidt reported on a few upcoming meetings. The Rental Committee continues to meet every Tuesday from 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM. CORE is meeting on Wednesday, April 26th at 7:00 PM at Alumnae Hall. The public meeting for the new City hall facility will be at the fire hall at 7:00 PM on Wednesday, May 3rd. 161 Miscellaneous and Announcement Items - There were no miscellaneous items to discuss. I 171 Closed Session - The Council broke for a ten minute recess. Schmidt stated that the Council would be going into closed session to discuss the AFSCME Labor Union Contract. At.10:45 PM, the Copncil reconvened. Hiemenz stated that the Council would meet again on May 1 th to continue discussions on the labor contract. 18i.

City Aslessor Ollie Lesnick, Stearns County Senior Appraiser Robert Lindvall and , Jeff Reber. i 2. Mtor Hiemen.z opehed te l¡1eeting for public comments and questions. Jeff Reber ad· ressedthe Board regarding his assessment 84.5379.010. Reber questioned why his ta 'es have gone up $19,9°0. Ollie Lesnick,the CityAssess9r, stated that real estatesal.es are at an all ¡time high with the values increasing every year. Lesnick also pointed out that Reber made some improvements to his property in terms of a deck. Lesnick asked Reber if he thought his house wasn't wdrththat much? Reberistatedthat he thought it was but was surprised with the increases every ye~r. Lesnick explained. that assessment value is not the issue, and that an increasing value is not a negative thing. I. Le¡lnick asked Reber ifh1istaxes went down this year and Reber.said no. In 1999, it was $1647 and in tOOO it was. $1675 so they were about the same. . Lesnick explained thatfor the square footage of · th· home, the value see~s appropriate. The real issue is equalization and how he compares to the Tesaround him. Lesn ¡ck explained tl1at the values are done hy COmputer and tl1at homes of that si . e are pretty uniform. i , ¡ R%ber explained that he just wanted to come in and ask about the steady increase. Lesnick told R ber that if he decided¡that he wasn't happy with the result, he would be getting a notice in the mail ar could gO the Coun~ Board meeting forrellef. If he.hadn't come to tl1is meeting though, he I w, uldn't have been able. to goto the County. S, hmidt statedthatthe~itYhadreCeiVedJWO written protests to theirassessments. The first letter was from Robert Clinton; Bogard Jr. The letter stated" To Whom It May Concern: I am a resident of s,. Joseph's Northland Addition and I am writing to disagree about the estimated market value of my hcrme and the constant, ¡consistent increases in recent times. Not only have they been constantly increasing since 1996, but they also seem to be taking "great leaps" each year! itis now high enough t9 the point that lam se~iously questioning its inflated level! My next door neighbor has had his home up for sale well over a month and has yet to receive any serious offers from.anyone. The question t~at I have is whether Northland Addition is as "hot as everyone thinks? In the last three years, the in¡creaseshave gone fr9m 2% t06%to 10%. What is the reason and whereisthe end? I realize that over the past few years ¡the City has erected a new water tower,. built a new fire hall, an have made ~scellaneous improverpents with roads, police and maintenance. I also realizethatwithin this same ti i e period, ..' have performed some improvements to my home sucha~ a deck, air conditioner and ~ndScaPing. But, as h~rdworking citizens, I really feel we all can only afford so much, and in smaller ore palatable increments. There mustbe more accountability and "reasons for the madness"of t~ese constant increases and inflated levels .In closing, please accept this letter as my official appeal ~ I may begin the proc,ess of trying to lower my property's estimated market value to a level which ¡ akes much more sense and is much more affordable, Thank you for your time and consideration. I · auld greatlyappreciat~any understanding and cooperation in this matter. . Sincerely, Robert Clinton agard, Jr." Schmidt stated that his. property identification is 605 4th Ave NE, R84.53734.130. I I , I i i i i I I Lesnick stated that he visited with Mr. Bogard and that he understood that the market value of his . house has gone up and that the market itself is really hot right now. He is simply concerned about spending in the City. His neighbor's home is still up for sale, but the fact that he hasn't sold it yet is probably more indicative of it being listed for too high of a price. Schmidt stated that the second letter the City received was from William and Mary Simon. The letter read: "Dear Counsel members: We are writing to you this date to appeal the estimated and taxable market value we just received from the Stearns County Assessor on our home in St. Joseph, MN. For the year 1998, the county assessed our property at: $67500. For the year 1999, the County assessed our property at $70,600. For the year 2000 the County assessed our property at $73,800. For the year 2001, the County assessed our property at $80,100. We have not made improvements on this property and yet the value the County has assessed our property is $6,300 more than the year 2000, and $12600 higher than it was just three years ago. Neither the City of St. Joseph, nor the County of Stearns have made any improvements in our neighborhood to justify such an increase. We feel the value of our property should be set to what it was in 1998. Thank you for your time. William and Mary Simon. Property Identification: R84.53707.000, Sect. 10 TWP-124 Range-029, Loso's 5th Addition, Lot 008, Block 003." Lesnick stated that he visited with Mrs. Simon. She understood about the market situation right now. It's a beautiful home surrounded by Norway Pines. He stated that he will also be contacting Mr. Simon. Ehlert stated that Northland Addition is really not selling well. Most of the homes are up for 120-150 days. Ehlert asked if it was possible to isolate and re-evaluate specific areas and developments like this one. Lesnick stated that this is possible but for the record, this ratio study was done between 10/1/99 and 4/10/00. He stated that perhaps the market is starting to mellow out. Lesnick stated the real thing to watch for is good equalization, which means that the homes are similar in quality and features. Hiemenz stated that he received a call from Donna Eveslage, 84.53936..000 at ih and Able. Her tax . preparer alerted her to a possible mistake in her tax structure. She stated that her taxes in 1998 were $73,300, in 1999 were $87,900 and in 2000 were $91,600. She was curious why there was such a huge difference. Lesnick stated that from 1997-1998, there was a sizeable jump that could be attributed to moving to the new computer system. Lesnick stated that he would stop over and speak with her about this. Loso asked Lesnick if he would also do a re-evaluation of the City's owned. Roth property, 84.53430.066. Loso stepped down from his Board seat and officially appealed the assessment for the Roth property. Hiemenz explained that the City paid approximately $55,000 for the property. Lesnick stated that he would also look at this property. Lesnick stated that he would speak with Mrs. Eveslage and review the City property. Lesnick recommended that the Board recess and reconvene at the City Council meeting on the 20th to accept or make changes to the recommendations made by the City Assessor. Loso made a motion to recess and reconvene on Thursday, April 2dh at 7:00 PM. The motion was seconded by Niedenfuer and passed unanimously. . , ~R-27ï2ØØØ 15:36 FRCt1 HANSMEIER TO Enclosed please find the revised Notice olCompletion of Vacation Proceeding by the City olSt. Joseph, Agreement. and Resolution Approving the Vacation ofa Portion of Cedar Street with regard to the Krcsbach matter.

Super America Expansion - Variance Requests - Lou and Jim Krebsbach were in attendance at the meeting to discuss the issue. Lou Krebsbach stated that the two brothers . have come to request approval of two variances. They are proposing to construct a rubbish confinement structure in the southeast corner of the St.· Joseph Super America lot. In order to place the structure in the proposed location, they are requesting a variance to the side and rear setbacks of the B2 Highway 75 Business District. The side yard variance would be five feet. The Ordinance requires a 20 foot setback from the County right of way line and the proposed project will be 15 feet from the right of way line. The rear yard variance request is 10 feet. The ordinance requires a 10 foot setback from the rear lot line. Krebsbach stated that they are adding 800 sq.ft. to the building and installing ADA compliant bathrooms. They also want to expand the cooler/freezer space. They need more room for their vendors to unload their trucks. Krebsbach stated that he spoke with Dick Taufen and that the variances shouldn't cause any snowplowing problems. Krebsbach stated that the trash enclosure would sit against the curbline. It would match the brick of the store. The planning commission also asked them to expand the landscaping and showed the Council some diagrams of potential landscaping ideas. Losoasked the size of the trash receptacle. Krebsbach stated that they are looking at a dumpster that is 25 ft. by 12.6 feet, with a depth of 6 feet. Krebsbach stated that ten. years ago they made a deal with the City and the County. They would give the property on College Avenue in exchange for parking overthe force main. There was also the understanding that they may need to put structures there in the future. It has come to their attention that Cedar street was never turned back to the City. As,it sits now, it is County right of way. Hiemenz stated that as such, we don't have the authorization to grant their requests until the .. property has actually been turned back to the City. The Council can, however, give you an idea of how it feels about the variance requests. Losostated that the City has an ordinance on easements. It's clear that the City doesn't allow encroachments such as these on easements and it's hard to get around that principle. Krebsbach stated that they are willing to sign a waiver that would release the City from any liability if they had to get to the force main and actually destroy the wall. This was the understanding ten years ago. Krebsbach stated that they set a precedent with the City in working out a good situation for all. Krebsbach stated that Council member Loso's father Mike was involved in the discussions. They relieved the City of some problem rental housing and agreed to a land swap that was a good situation for everyone. Schmidt asked if they had considered alternate locations for the trash receptacle. Krebsbach stated that they had .and that this is really the only location that would work. . The other spots don't allow for the increased circulation around the building that they are looking for. Níedenfuer suggested the front by the RV pumps as an alternate location. Krebsbach stated that the front of the building wouldn't work for aesthetic purposes. Niedenfuer then suggested that they turn the receptacle against the back lot line so that only the short end would encroach upon the easement. Twit stated that he would have a difficult time allowing any bUilding. or encroachment on the easement period. Krebsbach stated that he understands the issue of not wanting to set.a precedent for other builders in town. He stated again, however, that they seta precedent ten years ago with the deal that was made. This type of issue was already negotiated and should be recognized. Bettendorf asked if there was any documentation to reflect this offer .. and acceptance. Krebsbach stated that it was a purely verbal agreement sealed with a handshake. He stated the deal was above board and should be recognized. 2 i ~ . Loso stated that despite what happened ten years ago, we now have an ordinance that prohibits actions such 'as these. Twit added that even with the agreement ten years ago, they re now seeking to ch~nge the. use of the property. They are no longer looking for just arkirJg. Theywant to èrect structures over the easement. ,Krebsbach stated that the use asn'tchanged at all, 'as this situation was contemplated in the initial discussions; , I ettendorfasked if they could pull the structure north so thaUt would be off the top of the ipe.He asked how q,uch space would they need to allow for the circular flow around the building. Bettendorf suggested that they. have their architect put aternplate together showing rherethisdUrI\pster wOuld ~it and bringitbackfor theCguncil Iq r~vie~ once Cedar has actually been turned back to the City. If the dumpster can be moved off the top of the pipe ¡we could exempt that porjion from the easement. . Carlson. suggested that they turn the dumpsterdiagonally~nd move it up. This would allow easier access around the corner. Bettendorf stated that it should be.8 feet off the pipe so that it would only encroach five feet into the easement area. I i Krebsbach stated.that it might work, but that their initial proposal would be the best situation from a traffic flow standpoint. Bettendorf suggested that they might not need the 10 feet of sidewalk on that side]of the building which would free up some space for traffic flow as well. He. also suggE3sted shaving the corner off the curb. ! I Losoasked ifthey had looked into an"L shaped" dumpster. Krebsbach indicated that they I had not. 1 , I NiedenfuermadeaA"/Otionto approve the variance pending the vacationaf Cedar street vyith . the understa( dingth~t: thestructµre. Will not encroach anymo(ethan five feet onto the current· easement; that the.

The motion was seconded by Twit and p8ssed uminimously. I . .. I Schmidt stated that The would contact the County andgetthe turn back process started. Hiemenzasked theCouncilwhé1ttheirfeel.ingwas on the curb cut variance request. Loso stated that what they are asking for is that 5 }t2feet of boulevard beremoved which makes it easierfor trucks to tym around. They are just making the boulevard more narrow. I I Twit stated that what they are essentially asking for is to use a portion of City property for their trucks to turn around. This is something that the City hasn'tallowed anyone to do in the past. Krebsbach st*ed that iUs a safety issue for them. Theside loading beverage trucks are their biggE3st pro;blem. They just want to get them in and get them out as fast as possible. I I Loso added that he:has road right of way in his front yard. i i Twit made a motion I to approvetheb9ulevard cut at the Krebsbach's expense. The motion was seconded by Loso.and passed unanimously.

No 0 inion will be expressed by Bond Counsel regarding other federal or state tax consequences cause by the receipt or accrual of interest on the Bonds or arising with respect to ownership of the Bond . Preservation of the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from federal gross income and state gross and !nlliablenet income, hOWever, depends upon compliance by the Issuer with all· requirements of the Inte Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (The "Code'~).that must be satisfied subsequent to the is.' suancf of the Bonds in ord~rthat inte~est thereon be (or continue to be) excluded from federal gross mco¡ and state gross and taxable net mcome, I I The I suer will covenant to comply with requirements necessary under the Code to establish and main in the Bonds as tax-exempt under §I03 thereof, including without linùtation, requirements l'C- 1atinglto temporary.periods for investments.and limitations on amounts invested at a yield greater than the yi ,ld on the Bonds.

I 1 1 Excl sion Not Constitutionally Required; Pending Legislation The nited States SupremJ Court ruled in 1988 that the exclusion from gross income of interest on state dlocal bonds is.not required by the United States Constitution. The Constitution of the State of MilU1~sota likewise does not require the exclusion from gross income or taxable net income of interest on bOïdS of Minnesota issuers. Hence, futw"e federal and/or state laws could cause the inclusion of in- terest on bonds, in. elUding.· th. e Bonds, in gross income of taxable net inc. orne, or could otherwise cause such . terest to be taxed or to be included in the calculation of other income which is taxed. . . \ . I " Qualilfied Tax-Exempt ObJjgations The Ituer will designate JeBonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of §265(b)(3) of th~ Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended., relating to the ability of financial institutions to deducf. from income for federal income. tax purposes, interest expense that is allocable' to canying and acqUÍ11ing tax-exempt obligations. "QuaIiñed tax-exempt obligations" are treated as acquired by a fi- nanci1! i.nstitution befo. re ~~. gust 8, 1986. Interest allocable to such obligations remains subject to the 20% lsallowance under pn9f law.

JfSEPH, MINNES0T¡A PRES NT .WERE: 1 , Ken Hiemenz· Mayor Carl Schmidt City Administrator Stephanie Howe i Grooters Leapaldt Tideman Architects David Leapaldt \ Grooters Leapaldt Tideman Architects Issues discussed: I 1. The City Council has not made. a decision on the direction to pursue since the public meeting. They discussed the possibility of using the original scheme 'A', moving the Administration and the Council Chambers into the Bank Building and remodeling the existing Police building for the Police Department. .8ari andKen both suggested that we' are essentially back at 'square one'. 2. Davide~plained. We would still need to upgrade the existing Bank building for ADA requirements. ADA requires that at least 20% of the remodeling cost should be spent on ADA upgrades, and the ADA requirement begills with the first dollar of remodeling cost. 3. Stephanie explained ¡that the existing stairs do notmeetthe currentUBC code requirement, and after discussing with¡ Nancy Scott from Great.N orthern Building Inspection, Nancy said the stairs would not need to be! revised as long as the elevator is being installed. David eXplained the costto . replace the stairs wopld be in line with the new elevator cost, and if the elevator is not installed, the basement .could n,otbe used for any public meetings. 4. We reviewed a revised· plan that locates the Council Chambers in the. basement. The wall betweentheexistingitwo conference rooms would l1eed ,to be removed, the doors into the space would need to open but, the ceiling would be repaired and the carpet would be replaced. This plan locates the VideÞRoom to the east of this space. 5. Ken and Can.' agree~ .th. is. W.ould.. be a viable alternative., to building the CounciL Chambers . . I '. . addition,· and· they di~ected GLT to prepare. a revised. plan· and cost estimate for this scheme. Carl requested that GLT ¡present this revised plan and estimate at the City Council meeting on I . . . Thursday, ApriL20. ! . 6. We .discussed the main floor plan layout would work locating either the Police or the Administration on thð north side. of the existing building.

Germain i . I St. Cloud F or the past several months, the St. Cloud Library Board. of Trustees has Minnesota 56301 discussed proposals that would implementSunday service atthe St. Cloud Telephone: Public Libtary.Public response to the possibility of Sunday service has been 320-251-7282 very positiye; however, the Great River Regional Library System's current http://www.griver.org budget is rtot able to provide funding for the additional staff time and other related costs. The Great River Regional Library Board has agreedto allow us to explore the feasibility pf Sunday hours on a trial basis. . We would like to begin a trial this year, and we plan to approach the Great River Regional Library System with a permanent funding request if the results are successful. , The cost t9 fund a nine~month trial period is anticipated to be approximately $75,000. F eare proposing thatthe City of St. Cloud and surrounding . communittesprovide the. funds for the trial period. 1 Recent st~dies of circulation patterns indicate that more than 30% of the St. Cloud Puqtic Library building usage comes from residents of surrounding communities. A table showing representative shares for each community is inc1uded'vhth this mailing. We would like to meet with you and discuss your opinion o{the Sunday service trial period, as well as your willingness to contribute! a portion of the necessary funding. , , i We believ1e that Sunday hours at the St. Cloud Public Library will provide a real benefit to your citizens and we look forward to working with you to help make thislproposal a reality. For planning purposes, we would appreciate a response~o this request by Julyl, 2000. Pleasefe~lfreetocontactme at 252-9972 if you have any questions.
