JOSEPH ."""" <EN"" '" <£liT"', ."'''"0'' (612) 363·8250 EMERGENCY 911 DATE: J AN 1~, 1'3'34 TO: THE ST JOSEPH CITY COUNCIL FROM: CHIEF LINDGREN SUBJECT: MONTHLY REPORTS (DEC.) DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS, PLEASE FIND ENCLOSED THE DECEMBER INCIDENT REPORTS. I WILL BE WORKING ON THE YEAR END REPORTS AND HOPE TO HAVE IT READY BY NEXT MONTH. DECEMBER WAS AGAIN FAIRLY ACTIVE. I WILL ALSO BE ENCLOSING ONE OF THE FORMS I HAVE TO SUBMIT TO THE STATE FOR THE SAFE AND SOBER PROJECT. THIS IS THE VERY BRIEF 1 PAGE OVERVIEW OF OUR ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITIES. ~ THERE ARE TWO IMPORTANT ITEMS THAT STRIKE OUT AT ME. THE - FIRST ONE IS: EVEN WHEN WE WERE AGGRESSIVELY ENFORCING DURING THIS PROGRAM PERIOD, WE STILL GAVE MORE WARNINGS THAN CITATIONS. 119 WARNINGS VS 81 CITATIONS. SECONDLY, THE D.W.I.'S TOTALED THREE. WE HAD 4 D.W.I.'S ON A SATURDAY AND SUNDAY TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE PROJECT STARTED, INCLUDING ONE D. W. 1. ARREST FOR THE VEHICLE THAT,CRASHED IN THE DIRT LOT AND TOOK OUT A TREE AND SIDEWALK BENCH. HOPEFULLY, ACTIVELY ENFORCING AND ANNOUNCING OUR INTENTIONS REDUCED THE NUMBER OF IMPAIRED DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. ADDITIONALLY, AND BY WAY OF THIS PROGRAM, WE ARE ISSUING MORE CITATIONS FOR SEAT BELT VIOLATIONS. SEAT BELT VIOLATIONS ARE A SECONDARY OFFENSE, MEANING THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED FOR ANOTHER VIOLATION, TYPICALLY SPEED. DEPENDING ON THE SPEED, DRIVING RECORD, ETC. OFTEN TIMES WE WARNED FOR THE SPEEDING OFFENSE ($71.Ø0 FINE, AND A RECORDED DRIVING RECORD VIOLATION) AND CITE FOR THE SEAT BELT. ($42.00 FINE, THAT DOES NOT GO ON THE DRIVING RECORD) ALTERNATIVELY, A SPEED AND A SEAT BELT VIOLATION IS $123.00. SELDOM DO WE ISSUE BOTH, AND AGAIN IT DEPENDS ON THE SPEED, DRIVING RECORD, AND THE TOTAL SITUATION. IN SHORT, I BELIEVE AS IN ALL AREAS WE ENFORCE AND DEAL WITH, WE ARE DELIVERING A VERY TEMPERED RESPONSE, STRESSING SAFETY, AND HOPEFULLY MAKING IT SAFER FOR EVERYONE OUT THERE. PLEASE ALSO FIND ENCLOSED, AND FOR YOUR INFORMATION A THANK YOU CARD TO OFFICER YOUNG, A THANK YOU FROM THIS DEPARTMENT FOR A DONATION FROM THE AMERICAN LEGION FOR THE OFFICERS SHARE OF PURCHASING/REPLACING BULLET RESISTANT VESTS.

JOSEPH, MINNESOTA 56374 (612) 363-8250 EMERGENCY 911 DATE: JAN 19, 1995 TO: ST JOSEPH CITY COUNCIL FROM: CHIEF LINDGREN SUBJECT: BLUE LIGHTS DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS, THIS PAST YEAR THE LEGISLATURE PASSED A LAW THAT PERMITS BLUE LIGHTS ON POLICE VEHICLES, FORMERLY FORBIDDEN. THE LAW ALLOWS POLICE VEHICLES TO HAVE BLUE LIGHTS TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THE LAW WENT INTO EFFECT WITH THE AUG. 1, 1994 BATCH. . I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE SEEN ANY IN RECENT MONTHS, BUT SEVERAL AREA AGENCIES HAVE SWITCHED TO BLUE. THE MINNESOTA CHIEF'S OF POLICE ASSOCIATION RECOMMENDS THAT IF AGENCIES DO USE BLUE LIGHTS THAT THEY BE MOUNTED ON THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE ONLY TO KEEP UNIFORMITY THROUGHOUT THE STATE. THE BLUE LIGHTS, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT ARE VERY DISTINCT AND VISIBLE. IT DIFFERENTIATES LAW ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES FROM TOW TRUCKS, AMBULANCES, AND OTHER VEHICLES WORKING, OR ON THE ROADWAY. (THERE ARE GETTING TO BE TOO MANY YELLOW WARNING LIGHTS ON THE HIGHWAY) DUE TO THESE REASONS, AND THE UNDERLINING POTENTIAL FOR INCREASED SAFETY FOR THE OFFICERS, OR AT LEAST A HEIGHTENED AWARENESS OF OFFICERS AT THE SCENE, I AM REQUESTING WE INSTALL THE BLUE LIGHTING TO THE RIGHT PASSENGER REAR SIDES OF THE SQUAD CARS. I HAVE CHECKED INTO THE COSTS, AND IT SHOULD BE UNDER $150.00. THANK YOU. SINCERELY, ~ --- BRADLEY J. LINDGREN CHIEF OF POLICE POLICE DEPARTMENT ~,' BRADLEY J.

DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS, I AM WRITING TO REQUEST THE PURCHASE OF A NEW P.B.T. (PORTABLE BREATH TESTER>. THROUGH THE SAFE & SOBER GRANT, I CAN GET REIMBURSEMENT FOR HALF THE COST OF A NEW UNIT. IN ST JOSEPH, WE USE THE P.B.T. QUITE FREQUENTLY, AS YOU CAN WELL IMAGINE. WE CURRENTLY HAVE ONE UNIT THAT IS ALMOST . 10 YEARS OLD. IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE ONE UNIT IN EACH SQUAD. ADDITIONALLY, THERE ARE MANY TIMES WHEN TWO UNITS WOULD BE HELPFUL. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN THERE ARE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO NEED TO BE TESTED. SUCH AS AT A PARTY, OR DISTURBANCE CALL, OR A TRAFFIC STOP INVOLVING SEVERAL PEOPLE OF UNDER AGE. AFTER YOU RUN A P.B.T. TEST, YOU MUST WAIT SEVERAL MINUTES FOR THE UNIT TO RECYCLE, AND PURGE ITSELF IN ORDER TO RUN ANOTHER TEST. AGAIN, WE ONLY HAVE ONE UNIT, AND IT IS GETTING OLD. THE TOTAL COST OF A NEW UNIT THROUGH THE MINNESOTA STATE BID CONTRACT IS $334.Ø0. HALF OF THAT PRICE IS $167.00, AND IS A GOOD DEAL TO OBTAIN THIS EQUIPMENT WE NEED. THANK YOU. SINCEREL Y , B~J. --..

Administrator City of St. Joseph PO Box 668 St. Joseph MN 56374 RE: Request for multi-way stop within the City of St. Joseph Dear Rachel: . The Stearns County Board considered your City's request for a multi-way stop at the intersections of CSAH 2 (Minnesota Street) and 2nd Ave NW. An extensive study of this intersection was conducted by our staff to provide background information for . the County Board. I have enclosed a copy of information presented to them. . The information I have enclosed indicates an improved accident history since the current signing was installed. Also, this intersection does not meet the Minnesota Manual and Uniform Traffic Control Devices Warrants for multi-way stops, and studies have been done which show that stop signs installed with the idea of reducing speed actually have the opposite effect in the area between the stop signs. Based upon this information I recommended to the County Board that the request be denied. Subsequently a motion was made by Commissioner Rose Arnold and seconded by Commissioner Mark Salay to approve the City's request. This motion failed on a two to two vote. Therefore, at this time this intersection will remain signed as it is at present until such time as conditions would warrant installing multi-way stops. I want to assure you that this department wishes to continue the close working relationship we have had with you and your city in the past. I am sure that it remains both of our goal to provide a safe and efficient transportation system for our citizens in the future. -.

This statute provides that the Park Board may oonsist of 3, 5, 7 or 9 members. The city Council may select any of those four numbers, either by resolution or ordinance. Once the size of the Park Boarå is establisheã, any change in size must FRANK}, RilJkOW.iKr . be approved by a two-thirds vote by the Council. No GORDON H.

Stapleton, Clerk St. Joseph City Hall St. Joseph, Minnesota 56374 Dear Council Members: This is to inform you that the Minnesota Department of Health has nearly completed development of the wellhead protection program. The objective of wellhead protection is to protect public health by safeguarding the areas which contribute water to public wells . from potential sources of groundwater contamination. It is expected that this program will be implemented sometime in 1995 fol/owing promulgation of the state wellheåd protection . rule. We are enclosing a qqpy of the newsletter that we have developed for the wellhead protection program. We will be sending you additional information about the wellhead protection program on a regular basis through this newsletter. Also, we will send you a copy of the wellhead protection rule when we have it ready for public review and comment. ... Because of the large number of public water suppliers in this state, it was necessary to develop a ranking scheme for phasing public water supply systems into the program. This scheme is based on the percentage of vulnerable wells in the system and the size of the population served. Priority is also given to systems which serve children. Based on information that exists in our database at this time, your system is ranked number 46 out of the 1,586 community and nontransient noncommunity systems in Minnesota which rely on groundwater to serve their customers. - This ranking is subject to change should new information become-available regarding your system. Information that could change your ranking includes data related to well water quality. well construction, pumping rates, and population served. In addition, any municipal system which adds a new well é;lfter the wellhead protection rule takes effect is immediately brought into the program regardless of its position on the current list. We TOO: (612) 627-6003 (Twin Cities) 1-800-627-3529 (Greater Minnesota) A_r-_ _1'-" - . St. Joseph City Council I Page 2 December 28, 1994 anticipate that for the next several years only municipalities which add a well to their system or public water suppliers who voluntarily want to develop wellhead protection plans will be brought into the wellhead protection program. If you have any questions regarding your rariking for phasing into the wellhead protection program, status of the wellhead protection rule, or any other aspects of wellhead protection in Minnesota, please contact Mr. Bruce Olsen of my staff at (612) 627-5167.
