DATE: JULY 6, 1995
TO: ST JOSEPH CITY COUNCIL
FROM: CHIEF LINDGREN
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR RESOLUTION RE:
FUTURE SAFE & SOBER FUNDING
DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS,
I AM ASKING THAT THE COUNCIL ADOPT ANOTHER RESOLUTION
. FOR SAFE & SOBER FUNDING FOR NEXT YEAR.
THIS GRANT HAS WORKED OUT VERY WELL FOR OUR CITY THIS
PAST YEAR. WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HAVE ADDED ENFORCEMENT FOR
TRAFFIC SAFETY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, AND THE CITY HAS SAVED
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN OFFICER SALARIES FOR OVER TIME HOURS
WE WOULD HAVE NORMALLY PAID FOR REGULAR (ST JOSEPH) EVENTS
THAT ARE COVERED DURING ENFORCEMENT PERIODS. THESE EVENTS
ARE THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR, PINESTOCK, AND THE 4TH
OF JULY. IT WAS FANTASTIC THAT WE WERE ABLE TO RUN SAFE &
SOBER SHIFTS FOR EACH WEEKEND IN APRIL AND MAY WHEN WE NEED
THE ENFORCEMENT (AND VISIBILITY) THE MOST.
WHEN I ORIGINALLY WROTE THE GRANT, ONE OF THE GOALS I
HAD, WAS THAT WHEN AREA LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES SEE HOW WELL
OUR AGENCIES (WAITE PARK & ST JOSEPH) WORKED TOGETHER, EVEN
THOUGH WE HAVE OTHER CONTRASTING ENFORCEMENT ISSUES TO DEAL
WITH RESPECTIVELY. THERE WOULD BE MUCH INTEREST IN JOINING
UP WITH OUR PROJECT. ALL OF THE ST CLOUD METRO AREA AGENCIES
DID EXPRESS AN INTEREST, AND ATTENDED THE DEPARTMENT OF
PUBLIC SAFETY MEETINGS. THROUGH THIS, THE STEARNS COUNTY
SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT ASKED US, AND WE WELCOME THEM IN JOINING
UP AS A TEAM FOR NEXT YEAR. (ST JOSEPH, WAITE PARK, AND
STEARNS COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT).
DUE 70 TIME CONSTRAINTS ON MY PART, (WE ARE VERY ACTIVE
WITH CASES, AND THROUGHOUT MOST OF THIS SUMMER SOMEONE IS OUT
ON VACATION) I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO WRITE A NEW GRANT.
CHIEF DEPUTY DOUG PIERCE WILL BE THE MAIN GRANT WRITER THIS
. YEAR. THE GRANT THIS YEAR SHOULD BE AROUND $5Ø,000.00, THE
SAME AS LAST YEARS, EACH AGENCIES SHARE OF APPROXIMATELY
$16,000 EACH.

IN SHORT THE SAFE & SOBER PROJECT IS GOOD FOR OUR CITY
AND THE COMMUNITY WE SERVE, AND I RECOMMEND THE CITY PASS
THIS RESOLUTION. I HAVE ATTACHED A SAMPLE ONE, JUST CHANGING
SOME OF THE WORDING FROM LAST YEARS, SO EACH AGENCY CAN PASS
THERE OWN. IT WILL BE NEEDED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER THIS
COUNCIL MEETING SO IT CAN BE SENT IN WITH THE GRANT
APPLICATION THIS FIRST PART OF JULY. THANK YOU.

. DEPARTMENT HEAD EVALUATION FORM
~. INSTRUCTIONS
The department heads are to be evaluat~d periodically in ten areas related to
the performance of their employment. duties. The ratings will be on a numbered basis, with 5
being the highest rating and 1 being the lowest rating. If the evaluator does not feel that he
or she has enough knowledge to rate the department head in any particular area, then the
rating should be "NS" for no basis to provide a rating.
The form should be filled out based largely upon the evaluator's personal
knowledge. The evaluator may also take into consideration reliable comments of citizens,
other employees, or Council members which reflect upon the performance of the job by the
employee.
Each member of the City Councíl should fill out their own evaluation form. Five
evaluation forms will be collected by members of the Employment Committee and the ratings
will be averaged and presented on a single evaluation form. Department heads will not be
provided with access to the individual evaluation form of any member of the Coùncil. The
department heads will only be provided with the averages.
The evaluators are invited to provide any specific comments, examples or
suggestions in the "COMMENTS" section which follows each question in the evaluation form.
The comments will be summarized in the evaluation form presented to the employee. The
. employee will not be told from whom any spècific comment came.
In filling out the evaluation form, the Employment Committee asks that the
Council members fairly and objectively judge the employee for each of the ten areas of
evaluation~ Some employees may be strong in some areas while weak in the others. If so, - --
the evaluation form should say so.
The purpose of the evaluation is to provide our department heads with some
input and feedback as to their job performance. It will allow them to recognize areas in which
they must improve as well as identifying the areas where their job performance is already
strong. The evaluation form will alsoc,help the City identify problems that arise so that they
may be corrected before becoming significant.

Upon passage of this Resolution, you should provide a copy to the
Township for their information as well as sending a certified
copy on to the Municipal Board. As I understand it, the Town
Board is aware of the fact that we are proceeding with
annexation. The Town Board is taking a "no position" stance with
regard to this annexation. In other words, they are not
supporting nor opposing the annexation.
I also spoke with Judy regarding the Brandenburger property and
some other properties which were subject to an annexation order
dated February 14, 1992. It is my understanding that the County
Auditor's office would not allow recording of this order because
of some question regarding the underlying fee ownership of the
highway right-of-way. I spoke with Denny-Kron at the Auditor's
office. Denny told me that the highway right-of-way has since
been deeded by the Roske estate to the County. with that action,
the County Auditor would allow the prior order to be recorded.
Denny suggested that we record this order and any new order
together so as to avoid any gaps in title. In fact, before the
current Resolution is voted on by the city council, you may want
to send a copy of the legal description from the current
annexation along with the legal description for the seven parcels
annexed in 1992 to Denny to make sure that we have no gaps in
title. Once the current annexation is approved, both orders can
be recorded. .
It has also been brought to my attention that the city Council
attempted by Resolution to de-annex the County 75 right-of-way.
This Resolution appears in the Minutes of March 5, 1992. I do
not believe that the Resolution de-annexing the property would be
valid unless approved by the Municipal Board. It is my
understanding that the Municipal Board has not approved the de-
annexation. As far as the Municipal Board is concerned, all of
the property submitted for annexation in 1992 is annexed.
Therefore, when the current Resolution is passed, I would
recommend that the Council also adopt a Resolution rescinding the
action which they attempted to take by the March 5, 1992
Resolution.
Finally, I also wish to call to your attention as well as the
attention of the City Council the terms and conditions retained
in the Joint Resolution as to Orderly Annexation which may govern
this property upon annexation. Specifically, I would make note
of the following paragraphs contained in the Joint Resolution:
Paraqraph 3: Properties annexed would be subject to a staged
graduated increase in mill rates from the Town rate to City rate
over a period of not less than three nor more than five years.
Paraqraph 10: Any properties annexed which are agricultural -
lands shall continue to be classified by the City as agricultural -
lands and shall be taxed only at the rate provided for by law for
V
-,~

Ms. Rachel Stapleton

such agricultural lands. Agricultural classification shall
remain as long as the property is used for agricultural purposes.
Paraqraph 11: This provision would appear to apply to deferred
assessments. I am unaware of any deferred assessments affecting
these properties.
Paraqraph 12: This provision creates a formula providing that 80
percent of the cost of improvements are to be assessed on a per
unit basis while 20 percent of the cost is to be assessed on a
square footage basis.
Rachel, if you have any questions, please let me know. Would you
also keep me advised of the status of the Jannexation, Municipal
Board action and any hearings which may be scheduled by the
Municipal Board. Thank you.
Very truly yours,

· EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Work on the Stearns County Water Plan began in 1988 and the plan was adopted in August of
1991. The Stearns County Board of Commissioners has' been committed to the implementation
of the elements of the Water Plan since its adoption in 1991. Minnesota Statutes 103B.301 and
103B.355 address the development of Comprehensive Local Water Plans and require a periodic
update of the plan. Work on the update of the original plan began with the re-establishment on
a Water Plan Advisory Committee which held its fIrst meeting in March of 1994. A public
meeting to generate input for the updated plan was held in February of 1995.
The format of this updated version of the Water Plan is signifIcantly different than the original.
The original plan contains a vast amount of data, some of which is not contained in this version.
Some of the data from the original plan is included in this version, and some has been updated
and included. Information from the original plan is available for reference and use of that data
is encouraged.
This plan recognizes the progress of a number of organizations over the past fIve years. Work
done by Stearns County Departments, Soil and Water Conservation Service, Natural Resources
Conservation Service, the Watershed Districts, and state and federal agencies has resulted in an
improved protection of the County's water resources. Implementation of the Wetlands
Conservation Act is a good example of a successful and cooperative approach to resource
· management.
This plan stresses three main Goals:
- Improving the communication and coordination of the many organizations which
are involved in protecting and improving the County's natural resources
- Improving management of water resources through effIcient administrations of
programs', effective use of funds, and involvement of individuals and interested
groups
- Developing appropriate monitoring schemes to track the quality of the County's
water resources.
It is expected that much of the work in the next fIve years will address wetland and shoreland
protection, nutrient management, erosion control, education and growth management.
Additionally, development of databases and monitoring strategies to support these efforts will be
necessary .
As new issues arise, the focus of efforts by otganizations in the County may change. The Water
Plan will be treated as a working plan and updated as needed. ~
· In an effort to preserve our forest 'resources, copies of the appendices are not included with each
plan. A copy of the appendices is available at the Stearns County Environmental Services OffIce.
