election list to verify residency of students and enforce the

secured for the purpose of election day activities and are turned
in to the County at the end of election day. Councilors requested
. - the City Attorney review this matter.
-
Mary Ann Graeve: Mary Ann Graeve questioned where the applications
for the EDA can be picked up and how will the public be informed.
Hiemenz reported that they are not ready and the openings will be
published in the st. Joseph Newsleader and applications will be
.
,
.
available at the City Offices.
Graeve also questioned the gathering on College Avenue and if the
College Presidents and Development Directors were contacted. She
stated that in her opinion, inconveniencing these people may have
an impact on the College viewpoint. Also.. the City is making an
assumption that all those involved where students, which may not be
the case.
While reading the City Council minutes for the May 2, 1996 Council
meeting.. Graeve noticed an error. Page 2506 states the Council
considered removing the snow on the East Minnesota Street sidewalk.
It was her understanding the Council passed a resolution verifying
the removal. Councilors present agreed with Graeve and stated that
the tape will be reviewed and the necessary corrections will be
made. Graeve requested a copy of the revised minutes.
Gary Heltemes: Discussed the need for sidewalk along East Baker
Street. Pedestrian traffic is very heavy as Kennedy School is
located at the end of East Baker Street.
Steve Streng: Streng questioned the Council on the status of
charging for fire calls. Rieke stated that he originally suggested
the idea and felt that with Accu Serv in the city it would be a .
good dea I . However, after researching the matter he was unaware of
the good will gestures between the ambulance service and Fire
Department. If the Department starts charging for the services,
the City may also incur additional costs. Theisen also reported
that the Department receives funding from the County to purchase
additional equipment and charging for fire calls may have an affect
on funds.
Mailboxes: The Council briefly discussed the location of mailboxes
along East Minnesota Street. Those present questioned if grouping
of mail boxes had been discussed. The Council referred this matter
to the City Engineer for his consideration and opinion.
Ad;ourn: Loso made a motion to adjourn at 8:26 p.m..: seconded by
Hiemenz.
Ayes: Reber, Rieke, Loso, Hiemenz

FROM: CHIEF LINDGREN
SUBJECT: NEW OFFICER HIRE
DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS,
THE HIRING COMMITTEE HAS COMPLETED THE SELECTION PROCESS
AND HAVE THE RECOMMENDED CANDIDATE. HE IS STEVEN FISHER. I
HAVE ALSO ENCLOSED THE CITY APPLICATION WITH THIS LETTER.
THE REST OF THE APPLICATION IS QUITE LENGTHY, AND I BELIEVE
HAS PRIVATE INFORMATION THAT CANNOT BECOME PUBLIC AT THIS
MEETING.
WE AGAIN HAD A VERY THOROUGH APPLICATION AND RATING
- PROCESS. THE ELIGIBILITY LIST WHEN WE CHECKED ON IT, HAD =,
OF THE TOP 6 CANDIDATES ALREADY HIRED, SEVERAL WENT TO ST
...... CLOUD POLICE DEPARTMENT. I CHECKED WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY,
JOHN SCHERER & HIS RECOMMENDATION WAS THAT IT WAS FINE TO
ADVERTISE AGAIN. THE COMMITTEE AGREED AND WE ADVERTISED
AGAIN.
IT IS THE COMMITTEE'S RECOMMENDATION THAT RETAINING AN
ELIGIBILITY LIST FOR US, AT THIS TIME IS NOT PRACTICABLE FOR
THE FOLLOWING REASONS. 1. WE TRIED THIS, AND 2 THINGS
HAPPENED. ONE IS THAT IT CONFIRMED THAT WE RATED AND PLACED
THE RIGHT PERSONS IN ORDER ON THE LIST. THE BAD THING IS
THEY WERE HIRED BY OTHER AGENCIES IN 6 MONTHS. 2. WE SEE
THE SAME THING HAPPENING WITH THE RATED CANDIDATES WE NOW
HAVE. 1. E. BEST CANDIDATES BEING HIRED IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
3. WE DO NOT FORESEE TURN OVER IN THE DEPARTMENT IN THE NEAR
FUTURE, AND EVEN IF WE DO, FOR WHATEVER REASON, THE
ADVERTISING, RATING, AND INTERVIEWING PROCESS IS THE WAY TO
GO, AND IS THE COMMITTEE'S RECOMMENDATION.
THE TOP 2 CANDIDATES WERE 5 TOTAL POINTS APART OUT OF
500 (10Ø POSSIBLE POINTS TIMES 5 MEMBERS) THE COMM~TTEE HAD
ME DO THE BACKGROUNDS ON THESE 2 PERSONS. I DID, BROUGHT THE
INFORMATION BACK TO THE COMMITTEE AND SETVEN FISCHER WAS THE
COMMITTEE'S CHOICE. I FEEL CONFIDENT WITH THIS PERSON, HE
HAS JUST COMPLETED ALL OF HIS SCHOOLING AND TRAINING, AND HAS
WORKED MANY HOURS ON A PART TIME BASIS IN MELROSE. ALL
PERSONS I TALKED TO HAD NOTHING BUT GOOD TO SAY ABOUT MR.
-
PI SCHER ~ AND ALL WOULD HIRE OR REHIRE HIM.
I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD, THE HIRING COMMITTEE DID AN
- EXCELLENT JOB, AND PUT A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME INTO
TH IS, AGAIN, AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THEM FOR THEIR WORK.
I TRULY BELIEVE EACH KNOWS THE IMPORTANCE OF HIRING QUALITY·
OFFICERS, AND PLACES GREAT IMPORTANCE IN THE PROCESS.

I have revlewed the rev1sed Agreement prepared by R1Ch
Feneis. The Agreement did incorporate the changes that
M1NNEAPOLIS I requested in my letter of May 13, 1996.
2904PIazaV11 Unfortunately, there is an error located in section
45 South Seventh Street 4 (1;». Part of my requested langua~e was mistakenly
omltted. I have noted that error 1n the attached copy
Minneapolis,MNSS402-1620 of the Agreement. I would suggest that Mr. Feneis
6120339'9206 revise the draft to include the language mistakenly
800'445'9617 omi tted.
FAX 320'251'5896
. with that. one change, I would recommend execution of
the Agreement if the city Council is otherwise
INTERNET ADDRESS satisfied with its content. The agreement now runs for
rajhan@cloudnet.com 15 years. Mr. Feneis has the right to match any
agreement that we negotiate with another advertiser for
sale of advertising after the 15-year term expires. If
FRANKJ.RA¡KOWSKl.t the City chooses to sell advertising directly, Feneis
G H has no right of first refusal, and the contract would
