Motion Carried 5:0:0 Public Comments: Bud Reber discussed a recent article in the St. Toseph Newsleader where a City Official responded negatively to additional business locating in St. Joseph. He stated that the City has been actively working at increasing the tax base both by belonging to the St. Cloud Area Economic Development Partnership and recently forming an Economic Development Authority. It is Reber's opinion that the City Council should be supportive of the development efforts. Niedenfuer stated that she made the comment and it was taken out of context. Since that time she has apologized to representatives of Taco John and regrets making the comment. She stated that her concern is that the City be cautious as to the types of business that are permitted and encourage the development of specialty businesses. Ellen Wahlstrom questioned at what point does the City discourage competition for the local businesses. The local businesses cannot compete with large chains and the City should do what they can to retain the existing businesses. Fred Reber questioned if S1. Ben's is assessed for fire protection based on a formula, and if so what is the formula. Reber stated that his taxes are continually increasing and feels that St. Ben's should be paying more for the services they receive. He stated that a recent article in the St. Cloud Times indicated the amount that S1. Stephen and Brockway Township are paying for fire protection, which is . significantly more than St. Ben's contributes. , Loso responded that the City cannot require St. Ben's to contribute for fire protection as they are a non-profit organization and are exempt from paying taxes. The Fire Board approached S1. Ben's for I 3) rct.ç +-- ~ . r additional nmds and as a result of this meeting they increased their annual contribution from $5,000 to $10,000. Twit stated by law the Fire Department is required to provide fire protection and we cannot - assess them. This is a common problem faced by many Cities. - Bills Pavable: Weyrens presented the bills payable. Hiemenz questioned the legal fees with regard to Ordinances. Weyrens stated that the Council received new Ordinance Books and a large portion of that expense was the reproduction and binders for the Ordinance Books. Twit questioned whether this expense should have been approved before the expense was incurred. The Council requested to receive a copy of the detailed attorney bill with the bills payable listing. Councilors also discussed the transcription fees and how they are incurred. Ehlert made a motion to approve the bills payable, check numbers 23793 - 23825, as presented. The motion was seconded by Twit. A yes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert¡ Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 Overtime and Call outs: Twit questioned overtime earned for meeting attendance and if this is a requirement of the job. If the overtime is encountered to take minutes that may be accomplished in a more cost efficient manner. Loso responded that MN Statutes clarify that the Clerkf Adm is responsible for City Council minutes. Additionally, all employees are allowed to earn Compensatory time and the Council cannot dictate how or when they use that time. Hiemenz stated the City needs to be cautious in dealing with overtime and we need to refer to FLSA for clarification. Loso stated the Council reviewed this matter at length a couple of years ago and made a motion to approve the overtime and call outs as presented; seconded by Niedenfuer. Ayes: Hiemenz, Loso, EWert, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 MAYOR REPORTS . Personnel Policv Update: Hiemenz requested authorization to instruct the Personnel Committee to review the existing Personnel Policy and update as necessary. Additionally, the Committee should review the material on Exempt -vs- Non Exempt employees. Hiemenz stated that he has all the information from when the Council addressed this issue previously. Loso encomaged the Council to review all the material from the previous discussions. Niedenfuer made a motion authorizing the Personnel Committee to meet as necessary to update and review the Personnel Policy. This review should be complete within 60 days. The motion was seconded by Loso. Ayes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 Police Escort: Hiemenz stated the Council still has the outstanding issue as to whether or not the City will contribute funds to send the Police Chief to Washington D.C. when Officer Klinefelter's name is placed on the Fallen Officer Monument. He stated that he discussed using funds from the Klinefelter Fund (tee shirt funds) with Lindgren and Lindgren was uncomfortable using the funds for this purpose. Ehlert will discuss this further during his report. Economic Partnership: Hiemenz recently attended an Economic Partnership meeting where they discussed the airlines servicing the St. Cloud Area. The Airline proposing to join Norwest at the St. Cloud Airport has recently reported financial difficulty and will not be locating in St. Cloud. Further, Norwest is discussing the possibility of leaving the St. Cloud Facility. . 2 ~ ,. 9ra fi- J J 1. . - St. Cloud Area Planning Organization Meeting: Hiemenz recently attended the APO meeting where Carl Stich discussed the St. Wendel Utility dilemma. After the meeting Hiemenz further discussed the - matter with Stich and discovered Stich did not have a clear understanding the process. If it appears that financially it would work to service St. Wendel Township, Stich is requesting to have joint meetings with the City Council and Planning Commission. Additionally, Stich stated that all the easements are in place should St. Wendel be serviced by St. Joseph. Industrial Development: Hiemenz reported that he met with a prospective business wishing to relocate. The business has narrowed the site selection to three cities and St. Joseph is one of them.. This business would like to break ground by December 1997. Toseph Street: Hiemenz met with Dick Taufen, Public Works Director, to discuss the drainage problems on Joseph Street. To help the drainage the City maintenance will do some trenching and haul in fill. Park Board Appointment: Hiemenz stated that he has reviewed the applications for the Park Board and is ready to make his appointment. Before making his decision he made numerous attempts to contact the Chair of the Park Board to receive input. In the absence of connecting with the Chair, Hiemenz is requesting the City Council appoint Dave Thomas to the Park Board filling the vacant term expiring in 1999. Hiemenz feels that Thomas best fills the need and will bring diversity to the Board. Niedenfuer made a motion to appoint Dave Thomas to the Park Board as requested by Mayor Hiemenz. DISCUSSION . Twit questioned the background of Thomas. Hiemenz responded that he has lived in other areas and has exposure to park system. One of his goals is to prevent gang activities in St. Joseph. Loso questioned what happened to the past policy of the subsidiary Boards being able to recommend individuals to fill vacancies. Hiemenz responded that the St. Joseph Ordinance states that the Mayor appoints the members and is ratified by the City Council. Additionally, he did contact the City Attorney for his opinion before making this recommendation. Loso stated that the Park Board did place an ad for interested persons in November, but due to the Holiday Season they chose to wait until after the New Year to recommend appointment. The Park Board feels that they are not given the opportunity to have input in the selection of new members. Twit questioned if the Park Board By Laws give the Park Board the authority to select their own members and if the By Laws and Ordinance are in conflict. Hiemenz stated that the By Laws should not over rule the Ordinance. Ayes: Hiemenz, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: Loso, Ehlert Motion Carried 3:2:0 Hiemenz requested that a letter be sent to Thomas stating that he has been appointed to the Park Commission to fill a term that expires in 1999. At the end of his term he will have the opportunity to be re-appointed to the Commission. Ehlert stated it is important for the Council and Subsidiary Boards to establish a good working relationship. Councilor Reports TWIT . TIF (Tax Increment Financing) Conference: Twit reported that he recently attend a seminar on TIF Financing. The speaker, David Drown, discussed the basic and mechanics of TIF Financing. Loso requested that some time a presentation be made for the pub)ic and the Council as to what TIF is and 3 'lxcJ:(- . J the impact on City financing. Twit stated that there is a bill before the Legislature to abolish TIF - including existing districts. Twit briefly discussed the mechanics of TIF and stated there are different types of districts, but retail cannot be included. - Economic Development Authority (EDA): The EDA met on March 18, 1997 and established a ranking criteria for reviewing the 30 applications received for EDA Director. The field of candidates will be narrowed to 3 -5 for interviews. Investment Committee: The' next meeting of the Investment Committee will be on March 25, 1997. Housing Seminar: Twit stated that he will be attending the Housing Seminar sponsored by the Central Minnesota Initiative Fund on April 16, 1997. Liquor License Holder Concerns: Twit stated that he has been contacted by four (4) of the Liquor License Holders regarding the application made on behalf of the College of St. Benedict. Twit encourages all Councilors to talk to the license holders before the next Council meeting. EHLERT Police Escort: Ehlert reported on the use of funds from the Klinefelter Fund (tee shirt sales). He stated that Lindgren is uncomfortable using money from this fund for the Washington Trip. The entire family is going and they did not request funding. Twit stated that he received tvvo (2) phone calls from residents who questioned the benefit to the taxpayer for allowing such an expenditure. Twit stated he could only respond it would be good for the morale of the Police Department. While he feels there is . some obligation on the part of the City, he also feels that the City has contributed significantly. Hiemenz stated that the City has not spent much money. Niedenfuer feels that since Klinefelter lost his life defending St. Joseph the expenditure is appropriate. It is an honor to be placed on the monument. Ehlert stated he personally has no problem supporting the expenditure, but questions how the public would respond to such an expenditure. At this time Ehlert requested that Hiemenz open the floor to the public for input. Hiemenz opened the floor for comment: Jim Graeve: Understands the Police Chief is uncomfortable requesting the money and suggested the Council pass a resolution requesting funding assistance, taking the matter out of the hands of the Chief. Graeve also stated that many residents of St. Joseph contributed to the Fund and he feels they would see it an appropriate use of the donated funds. Mike Deutz: Questioned if the Chief will be paid while he is in Washington. Hiemenz responded that Lindgren will be using his vacation time. While he is on vacation he will not be on City time or eligible for associated benefits. Deutz also questioned if the City is setting precedence and stated that he would not be supportive of using City Funds to support the trip to Washington. He concurred with Graeve, it would be an appropriate expenditure to draw from the Klinefelter Fund. He too stated that the residents of St. Joseph contributed greatly to the fund. Loso read a statement from a letter written by Brad Lindgren where he stated that he will go to Washington regardless of the City contribution and will be glad to pay for the entire trip. After listening to the public comments and Council comments, Twit made a motion stating the following: The St. Joseph City Council understands the importance of the presence of Police Chief Brad Lindgren at the ceremony when Officer Klinefelter's name is placed on the fallen Officer Monument in . Washington DC. However, after soliciting citizen input as to the appropriateness of using City Funds to send the Police Chief to Washington DC it was deemed more appropriate to receive the necessary 6y .. ~(¡¡~+- ~ , I ~ funding from the Klinefelter Fund (tee shirt fund) . Therefore the City will not authorize any City - Funds for the expenses incurred by Chief Lindgren while attending the ceremony. The motion was - seconded by Loso. A yes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 Comprehensive Plan: The Planning Commission has been working on updating the Comprehensive Plan and the Council should have received a draft.

The meeting is being held at Klaire's residence due to a recent injury which confines her to her home. Monte Estvold - Fire Hall Bond Sale: Monte Estvold, City Bond Counsel, informed the Council that six (6) bids were received for the bonds for the Fire Hall. All the bids were good bids and the low bidder was Dain Bosworth with a net interest rate of 5.5266 %.

John Kinnard 5.6279% Cronin & Co. 5.6693% Dougherty, Dawkins 5.7087% Estvold discussed that the City has a bond rating of Baa3. Twit questioned the comment on the rating sheet with regard tò the debt load of the City. According to the rating St. Joseph has an above average debt for the size of City. Estvold stated that when the City is rated Bond Counsel does not take into account that the Township is responsible for a portion of the bonds. Loso questioned what factors are considered when a City is rated. Estvold stated the following three factors are considered when rating: 1) Fiscal Management; 2) What type of growth the City is experiencing; 3) Tax base -vs- debt level. There being no further questions, Loso made a motion authorizing the issuance, awarding the sale to the low bidder, Dain Bosworth, prescribing the form and details and providing for the payment of $ L235,OOO General Obligation Bonds of 1997.

Administrator/Treasurer City of 81. Joseph 21 NW First Avenue P.O. Box 668 81. Joseph, MN 56374-0668 Dear Mayor and Members of the Council: ~ Bids were opened in the 81. Joseph City Hall at 11 :00 a.m. on Wednesday, March 26, 1997, for the - above-referenced improvement. Contractors were allowed to bid on one or both projects, with separate award being made to the low bidder on each of the two projects. I did not delete the north bridge and replace it with a culvert because the hydraulics dictate? a culvert arrangement that was as costly as the bridge. I did, however, include a deduct for reducing the span of the south bridge from 40- to 25-feet. The low bid for Contract A, Bituminous Trail Construction, was submitted by Custom Smfacing Co. of 8 auk Rapids, Minnesota, in the amount of$31, 742.75. Their bid appears to be in order. Since I have not worked with Custom Surfacing before, I checked with the City of 81. Cloud, a reference submitted by the Contractor. The Park Department indicated Custom Surfacing has constructed a number of trails, basketball courts, and tennis courts satisfactorily. In view of this, I recommend award to Custom Services, Inc. The low bid for Contract B, Pedestrian Bridge Construction, was submitted by MDT Inc., of 81. Cloud, Minnesota, in the amount of $33,453. Their bid appears to be in order. MDT provided a deduct of S3,000 if the south bridge is shortened to 25 feet. I recommend this deduct not be accepted. The original 40 foot span design fits the ten'ain much better than the shorter bridge. If we shOlien the bridge we must extend the trail. I believe the savings is not worth compromising the original design. I recommend award to MDI, Inc. . SHOFìT ELLIOTT hENORiC/':'SON INC. ST. PAUL. IvIN "·-!!NNEAPOLlS.

In restoring disturbed areas, the Contractors "vill place the topsoil, but raking and seeding is to be done as in- kind 'Nork by City forces. Substantial completion is September 1, 1997 for Contract A, and August 15, 1997 for Contract B. As I have previously stated, there will be no charge for Engineering services necessary to design and bid the project except for reproduction costs. There will be no charge for my time to manage the project during construction. There will be a charge for our technical people to review shop drawings and stake and inspect construction. I expect the project costs to be as follows: Contract A $31,742.75 r Contract B 33.453.00 - $65,195.75 Contingency 2,500.00 Staking and Inspection 3,800.00 Total Project 571,495.75 Grant Amount $25,000.00 Local Cost $46.495.75 If any questions arise, please give me a call.

IN THE PAST YEAR ALONE, THERE ARE FIVE MAJOR CRITICAL INCIDENTS INVOLVING ASSISTANCE FROM OUTSIDE AGENCIES IN ST JOSEPH: THE INCIDENTS ARE: BANK ROBBERY, ARMED ROBBERY AT SUPER AMERICA, ARMED ROBBERY AT PHILLIPS 55, GRADUATION WEEKEND, AND BRIAN'S MURDER. EXCLUDING BRIAN'S CASE, IN THE PAST YEAR WE HAVE HAD ASSISTANCE IN CRITICAL INCIDENTS FROM THE FOLLOWING AGENCIES IN ONE CALL OR ANOTHER: ST CLOUD POLICE, SARTELL POLICE, WAITE PARK POLICE, SAUK RAPIDS POLICE, AVON POLICE, COLD SPRING POLICE, MELROSE POLICE, IN ADDITION TO THE STATE PATROL AND THE STEARNS COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.

IN FOLLOWING THE ENCLOSED MUTUAL AID AGREEMENT EACH · AGENCY SHALL HAVE POLICIES ADDRESSING REQUESTING AND RESPONDING TO MUTUAL AID CALLS. OUR CURRENT POLICY ONLY ADDRESS REQUESTING ASSISTANCE. IN TIUS LIGHT, I DRAFTED UP A POLICY ADDRESSING RESPONDING TO MUTUAL AID CALLS FOR ASSISTANCE. IT IS QUITE ENCOMPASSING, AND ALTHOUGH WE HAVE BEEN BASICALLY OPERATING UNDER THE OUTLINED PROCEDURES, IT WOULD BE ADVANTAGEOUS FOR US TO HAVE A FORMAL POLICY ON IT IN ANY EVENT. I HAVE ALSO RAN THIS POLICY PAST OUR CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE, AND WE HAVE THE FINAL VERSION ENCLOSED. IN SUMMERY, A GREAT AMOUNT OF TIME, ENERGY, AND EFFORT WENT INTO THIS PROCESS BY MANY PEOPLE. I AM QUITE PROUD OF THE FINAL PRODUCT, AND THE POTENTIAL COSTS IT MAY SAVE. I ALSO BELIEVE IT MAY SERVE AS AN EXAMPLE TO THE LEAGUE AND OTHER CITIES AROUND THE STATE AS A MODEL POLICY AND PRODUCT OF JOINT EFFORTS AND COOPERATION. INSOFAR AS OUR BASIC DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS, THEY WILL NOT CHANGE. THE POTENTIAL CIVIL LIABILITIES INVOLVED HOWEVER, WILL BE GREATLY DIMINISHED, AND WE WILL HAVE A MORE STRUCTURED AND FORMALIZED POLICY COVERING RENDERING MUTUAL AID ASSISTANCE. I RECOMMEND THE COUNCIL AUTHORIZE THE SIGNING OF THE MUTUAL AID AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF SARTELL, AND OTHER AREA CITIES WHO ARE WILLING TO ?ARTICIPATE.

You asked FAX 320.251.5896 that I send you a letter for your use with the council briefly outlining the changes ~. which are in this new proposed mutual aid agreement. This agreement is intended INTERNET ADDRESS to replace the 1960 agreement currently used by St. Joseph. The only substantial rajhan@c]oudnet,com change in the agreement is the addition of an indemnification and defense clause. This clause provides that the city requesting aid agrees to defend and indemnify the officers who respond from the other city if a lawsuit arises from the activities of the FRANK J, RA/KOWSKI . t officers. GORDON H, HANSM£IER This clause was requested to be added to all mutual aid agreements by the League FREDERICK L. GRUNKE of Minnesota Cities insurance group. The League asked for this clause because it THOMAS G. JOVANOVICH allows the League to defend both cities in the same action with a single attorney and JOIfN H, SCHE,~ER to have only one insurance policy at issue. Under the old mutual aid agreements, P)OUL A. RA/KOWSKI t which did not contain this indemnification language, the League of Minnesota Cities KEvIN F. GRAY was required to hire an attorney to represent each city and each city's insurance WilliAM f. CASHMAN policywas at issue. This obviously incre'ased expenses both from having to hire two RICHARD W. SOBALVARRO attorneys and in settlement costs as plaintiffs attorneys were able to potentially BRIDGET ¡'vI. LiNDQUIST collect from two policies rather than one. The entire idea behind the BRIAX L W¡lli;\AfS indemnification clause is to keep costs down in defending any actions and so keep costs down to the cities in payments they make to the League for their insurance coverage. JAMES H, KELLY, M.D" F.A.C.P, MED:C\l COXSl"LTA.'ã Other than the addition of the indemnification clause, the main changes to the FRANK J. RAjKO\\'SKlIS "D'InTED TO PRAcneE mutual aid agreement are language changes which remove much of the legalese C\ :\ùRTH DAKOTA, contained in earlier agreements.

ME.\IBER OF AMERICAN BoARD OF TRIAL .-\DVOCA TIS. t QuALIFIED ADR NEUTRAL Section 2.04 Responding to Requests for Mutual Aid . The following criteria shall be used in determining if and how to respond to day-to- day emergencies and requests pursuant to mutual aid agreements. 1. If only one St. Joseph police officer is on duty, the response by the officer is to be for extremely urgent matters only. As soon as the emergency is over, the officer shall return to the City of St. Joseph immediately. 2. If there is more than one officer on duty, the supervisor or senior officer shall determine whether a St. Joseph officer will respond and which officer will respond. One officer must remain in St. Joseph, except under the most demanding circumstances. 3. In all day-to-day emergencies, when officer(s) are responding to incidents in another jurisdiction, as soon as adequate personnel from the requesting agency have arrived, the St. Joseph officer shall return to the City of St. Joseph. 4. St. Joseph responding officer(s) shall be under the direction of the officer in charge from the requesting agency. If the St. Joseph officer believes an order is invalid, unjustified or is in violation of the St. Joseph Police Department regulations, he/she will not comply with the order, and shall notify a St. Joseph Police Department supervisor as soon as practical. . 5. Implied Request/Consent: When a situation arises within another jurisdiction who has a mutual aid agreement with the City of St. Joseph and it reasonably appears that circumstances exist which have resulted in an officer's inability, either because of activity or physical inability, to communicate the need for assistance, a St. Joseph officer may respond. (This paragraph is intended to allow for a St. Joseph officer to respond and render aid in critical incidents where, as a result of the nature of the incident which is ongoing: radio traffic has jammed dispatch because of multiple units/ agencies responding, units are responding from a considerable distance from the critical incident, requesting officers fail to answer or respond to radio safety checks or other situations where, based on available information, it is reasonable to infer that aid and assistance is required immediately.) In all cases where a St. Joseph officer has responded to a critical incident as described above, the responding St. Joseph officer shall, as soon as practical, inform dispatch on the sheriffs recorded radio frequency that he/she is responding and, following the incident, articulate in a written police report the reasons why he/she responded in the absence of a communicated request for assistance. 6. All officers are reminded their primary duty is to the City of St. Joseph. . . , . . . MUTUAL AID AGREEMENT FOR THE USE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OFSARTELL AND THE CITY OF ST. JOSEPH This Agreement made and entered into this day of , 199 , by and between the City of Sartell and the City of St. Joseph, municipal corporations organized under the laws'of. the State of Minnesota, WITNESSETH:' ,', ' , Whereas-, the above cities desire to enter: a' Mutual Aid Agreement where each city will make available to the other city their police personnel and police equipment in case of emergencies. NOW THEREFORE, it is mutually agreed as' follows: 1. Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is to provide mutual law enforcement to the Party requesting assistance in the event of an emergency. . 2 . Definitions. A. "partyll means a governmental unit which is a Party to this Agreement. B. "Requesting Officialll means the person designated by a' Party who is responsible for requesting assistance from other Parties. C. "Requesting Party" means a Party which requests assistance from other Parties. D. "Responding Official" means the person designated by a Party who is responsible to determine whether and to what extent that Party should provide assistance to a Requesting Party. E. II Responding Party" means a Party which provides assistance to a Requesting Party. 3 . Need for Emerqency Assistance. A.

C. The Chief of Police or, in the Chief's absence, the officer on duty and in charge, shall determine and authorize a request for assistance. D. The Police Chief of each ~ity shall implement a policy regarding requesting and providing emergency assistance. The policy shall set forth the circumstances under which aid may be requested and the circumstances under which aid will be provided by the responding municipality. 4. Control Over Emerqencv Scene. The Requesting Party shall be in command of the emergency scene. The police personnel and equipment shall be under the direction and control of the Requesting Party until the Responding Official withdraws assistance.

The intent of the indemnification requirement of this section is to impose on each Requesting Party a limited duty to defend and indemnify any Responding Party for claims arising within the Requesting Party's jurisdiction subject to the limits of the liability under Chapter 466, Minnesota Statutes. The purpose of creating these reciprocal duties to defend and indemnify is to simplify 4IÞ the defense of liability claims by eliminating conflicts among defendants, and to permit liability claims against , . . 4IÞ multiple defendants from a single occurrence to be defended by a single attorney. B. The Requesting Party agrees to indemnify and defend against any claims brought or actions filed against the Responding Party or any officers, employees or volunteers of the Responding Party for injury or death to any third person or persons, or damage to the property of third persons, arising out of the performance and provision of assistance in responding to a request for assistance by the Requesting Party pursuant to this Agreement. The responding party shall be construed to be "responding to a request for assistance" during the period of time that the officer is outside of the city limits of the responding officer in responding to the request. C. Under no circumstances shall a Party be required to pay on behalf of itself and other parties¡ any amounts ín excess of the limits on liability established in Chapter 466, Minnesota Statutes¡ applicable to only one Party. The limits of liability for some or all Parties may not be added together to determine the maximum amount of liability for any Party. 8. ResDonsibility for Personnel and Eauipment. 4IÞ A. A Responding Party shall be responsible for its own personnel¡ equipment, and for injuries or death to any such personnel or damage to any such equipment¡ except that unused equipment provided by the Responding Party shall be returned to the Responding Party by the Requesting Party when circumstances permit this to be done. Responding personnel shall be deemed to be performing their regular duties for the Responding Party. Insurance coverage and any financial compensation shall be the responsibility of the Responding Party. Each Party waives the right to sue any other Party for any worker's compensation benefits paid to it's own employee or volunteers even if the injuries were caused wholly or partially by the negligence of any other Party, its officers¡ employees, or volunteers. B. If an officer who is rendering assistance under this Agreement is required to take a mandatory leave of absence because of discharge of the officer's weapon in the line of duty or for any other reason, the Requesting Party shall reimburse the Responding Party for the salary of the officer while on leave of absence. . 9. Insurance Coveraae. 4IÞ Each Party shall maintain insurance policies covering: A. Worker's compensation liability insurance for members of its department to include coverage for police officers that are engaged in the performance of their duties under this Agreement and outside the boundary of the city for whose department that officer is employed by.

Þ. copy of this Agreement shall be posted at each police department headquarters for each of the Part.ies that are participating in this Agreement. 4IÞ , J . .

Trainreq.psp/12/3/96 - - 6 . CASE 1 SAGER V. WOODLAND PARK 543 F. SUDP. 282 (D.Colo. 1982) FACTS: This was a civil rights action brought by the oarents and sister of a victim of a oolice shooting. The oìôln'tlffs alleged that the victim was shot and killed intentionaiìy and without provocation or justification. The plaintiffs sued tne officer, the Chief of Police and the city alleging gross negligence in a failure to train. PROCEDURE: Suit was brought in the Federal District Court for Colorado. The Chief of Police and the city(in turn) sued another city as a 3rd-party alleging that the other city was 1 i ab 1 e because of negligence by it's police academy 1 n 'the training of an officer, and it was the negligent training tnat was the reason for the victim's death. ISSUE: Can the city who trained the officer be held 1 i ab 1 e ln a 3rd-party action for indemnification or contribution? HOLDING: The 3rd-party (the city whose training facilities . were used to train the officer) may be liable for their negligence, if it was that negligence which caused the victim's death. RATIONALE: ( 1 ) Because the training academy was negligent (through use of a film showing an improper means of arrest) they had a duty to possible victims who suffer because of that negligence. ( 2 ) If the victim's death was due to the lmorODer training, the city whose training academy was used would be liable because their negligence was the direct cause of the victim's death. NOTE: The film at lssue was "Introduction to Crime Prevention" purchased by the training academy from the Motorola Corporation 1 n 1976. It showed an officer making an arrest in which a suspected burglar is ordered down to the ground and spread eagled. The officer ln the film uses one hand to handcuff the suspect and the other to - hold a shotgun to the suspect's head. It was in this manner the victim in this case was shot. ~ \ , . . CASE 2 HOLMAN V. WALLS 648 F. Supp. 947 (D. De 1. 1986) FACTS: The decedent went to a dent i st' s off ice and, f 1 i poed out. He grabbed a knife and secluded himself ln an ooera~ing room. The dentist dialed 911 and three Dover City pollcemen responded to the call. Upon arrival, the officers once requested the man to leave the opera~lng room. Uoon his refusal, they then unsuccessfully attempted to force the door. Finally, the man exited, holding a knife. The officers proceeded to fire 14 shots, hitting the man 12 times and, not surprisingly, killing him. The deceased's relatives filed suit unaer 28 U.S.C. 1983 against the police officers, the Chief of Police and the City of Dover alleging violations of the dead man's 5th and 14th Amenament rights. In turn, and ln pertinent part, the Chief of Police filed a . 3rd-party complaint against the Administrator and members of the C~u~cil on Police Training in their individual and official caoacltles. HOLDING: The District Court dismissed the claim against the 3rd-party defendants both as to their official, as well as their individual, capacities. The claim to the official capacities was rejected because such suits are barred by the 11th Amendment which holds states lmmune from suits brought in Federal Court by its own citizens and the citizens of another state. The claim against the 3rd-party defendants as to their individual capacities was dismissed because the Court found that the administrator and members of the Training Council acted ln good faith ln training and supervls1ng the oolice officers, and held that the actions did not constitute "gross negligence" RATIONALE: The pertinent count of the 3rd-party complaint alleged that the 3rd-party defendants had a duty, imposed by Delaware statutes, to provide proper and adequate training to the defendant police officers, and that they breached this state law duty by "negligently, recklessly or wantonly" failing __ to provide such training. . In deciding against such a claim, the Court found no sDeclfic facts or circumstances that would SUDDort the 3rd-party plaintiff's allegations. On the contrary, it noted that the 3rd-party defendants had introduced affidavits into the record asserting that they had fulfilled their responsibilities 1 n good faith and without gross or wanton negligence. Most importantly to P.O.S.T. and the Training Directors of Missouri's law enforcement academies, the Court noted that "In addition, the 3rd-party defendants have placed in the record materials describing ln deta i 1 the Delaware State Police Training Academy curriculum, which they now cite as support for their assertions of good faith and due care. " 648 F. SUDP. at 955. SUMMARY: The good faith actions of the administrator and members of the Dolice training council which consisted of training and supervising police officers, but which were done in official capacities and without gross negligence, involved the exercise of discretion. Simple negligence, even if it had existed here, is generally insufficient to support the 1 iabi 1 ity of supervisory officials for failure to adequately train or superVlse individual officers. Gross negligence or recklessness is usually required. . . - - t . POLICE DEPARTMENT . . BRADLEY J. LINDGREN, CHIEF OF POLICE . BOX 268, 25 N.W. 1ST A VENUE ST.

JOSEPH, MINNESOTA 56374·0268 (612) 363-8250 EMERGENCY 911 , DATE: APRIL 3, 1997 TO: ST JOSEPH CITY COUNCIL FROM: CHIEF LINDGREN SUBJECT: SQUAD MAINTANCE (UPDATE) DEAR COUNCIL MEMBERS, JUST A SHORT NOTE KEEPING YOU APPRISED IN 1 AREA WE ARE TRYING TO LOOK AT WAYS OF SAVING MONEY AND USING EQUIPMENT EFFICIENTLY AND TO OUR BEST ADVANTAGE. ALMOST A YEAR AGO WHEN WE (THE CITY) DECIDED TO KEEP THE CHEV SQUAD CAR AND DRIVE IT AS LONG AS WE COULD & KEEP MILES DOWN ON THE OTHER 2 SQUADS IN HOPES OF KEEPING US ON A 2 YEAR SCHEDULE OF PURCHASING A NEW SQUAD. WE WERE ALMOST IN A SITUATION OF LOOKING AT BUYING 1 CAR 2 YEARS IN A ROW DUE TO THE HIGHER MILES ON THE CURRENT UNITS. (THE PRICES OF NEW . SQUADS ALSO JUMPED UP FROM 13,ØØØ TO 2Ø,ØØØ PER VEHICLE AS CHEVROLET QUIT MAKING THE CAPRICE SQUAD CAR> WE HAVE BEEN ON A SCHEDULE OF BUYING 1 NEW SQUAD EVERY 2 YEARS, KEEPING IT FOR 4 YEARS AND ROTATING THE OLDER SQUAD OUT. AN EXAMPLE WITH THE 95 FORD WOULD BE TO KEEP IT UNTIL THE YEAR 2ØØØ, IN 1998 WHEN WE ARE SLATED TO BUY AGAIN, THE 1994 WOULD BE ROTATED OUT. THE 1994 FORD CURRENTLY HAS NEARLY 1ØØ,ØØØ MILES ON IT. THE CHEV (BLUE SQUAD) IS STILL RUNNING WELL AND HAS NEARLY 15Ø,ØØØ MILES AND THE 1996 HAS 25,ØØØ. WHEN WE HAD THE THREE CARS AVAILABLE TO US, AND IN DOING SOME MINOR RESEARCH ON THE SUBJECT, WE WENT TO ASSIGNING OFFICERS TO PRIMARY CARS. SEVERAL REASONS FOR THIS ARE. MORE ACCOUNTABILITY IN DAMAGE, INCLUDING MINOR DAMAGE. THE SAME IDEA BEHIND GENERAL AND ROUTINE MAINTANCE, AND EQUIPMENT. IN ADDITION, EACH OFFICER BECOMES MORE EFFICIENT IN NOT ONLY THE OPERATION AND PERFORMANCE OF HIS OR HER SQUAD, BUT ALSO ALL OF THE EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT IN IT. IE, IN EACH VEHICLE, THE TRUNK RELEASES ARE IN THREE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS, DIFFERENT SWITCHES OPERATE DIFFERENT EMERGENCY LIGHTS IN EACH VEHICLE. EACH VEHICLE HAS A DIFFERENT KIND OF MOBILE RADIO AND FUNCTION EACH DIFFERENTLY FROM THE OTHER. WE CAN OPERATE ALL OF THE EQUIPMENT, BUT IN EMERGENCIES, WITH YOUR OWN SQUAD YOU BECOME TO KNOW BY INSTINCT HOW TO OPERATE IT EFFICIENTLY. AGAIN, A PLUS IN EMERGENCIES. FINALLY, AND ONE OF THE PRIMARY REASONS IN SPEAKING TO . PEOPLE WHO SERVICE VEHICLES. IS THIS. WITH SEVERAL PERSONS, AND IN OUR CASE SIX PERSONS OPERATING A VEHICLE. IT IS SUBJECT TO MORE WEAR AND TEAR IF ONLY BY VIRTUE OF SIX DIFFERENT PERSONS PARTICULAR DRIVING HABITS. WE HAVE JUST NùTICED 1 BENEFIT OF THE ASSIGNED SQUADS. THIS IS IN THE AHEA CiF BRAKES. WE WERE JUST GETTING APPROXIMATELY 15,ØØØ ON ( ',- # POLICE DEPARTMENT BRADLEY J. LINDGREN, CHIEF OF POLICE BOX 268, 25 N.W. 1ST AVENUE ST. JOSEPH, MINNESOTA 56374-0268 (612) 363-8250 EMERGENCY 911 A SET OF BRAKES. WE CURRENTLY GOT JUST OVER 25,000 ON THE 1996, AND NOW 30,000 OUT OF THE 1994. THE. COST SAVINGS IS SIGNIFICANT, SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS PER CAR. THIS WAS A NEW AREA, NOW THAT WE HAD THE AVAILABILITY TO USE 3 CARS, WE IMPLEMENTED THE ASSIGNING OF OFFICERS TO CARS, AND NOW SEE 1 GOOD COST SAVING RESULT. I FELT IT WAS WORTH REPORTING THIS TO YOU. JUST A REMINDER AND RELATIVE TO TIRES, WE OVER THE PAST YEARS HAVE WORKED CLOSE AND TRACKED THE TIRE LIFE ON THE VEHICLES WITH TIRE MAX WHO SERVICES OUR TIRES. A VERY BRIEF OVERVIEW. POLICE VEHICLE TIRES WEAR FASTER THAN CONVENTIONAL VEHICLES. THIS IS DUE TO EXTREME STRESS IN OPERATING AT HIGH SPEEDS. COMPOUNDED BY THE CONSTANT TURNING BLOCK BY BLOCK WHILE ON ROUTINE PATROL. THE ONLY WAY TO GET LONGER LIFE OUT OF A TIRE IS TO GO TO A GRADE OF HARDER RUBBER. THE HARDER THE RUBBER THE LESS FRICTION AND THEN CONTROL WE WILL GET OUT . OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLES WON'T STOP AS WELL AND SKID AT HIGH SPEED, FISHTAILING BECOMES A MAJOR CONCERN IN EMERGENCY MANEUVERS AND IN CORNERING, AND CONTROL ON WET AND SNOW PACKED ROADS IS GREATLY DIMINISHED AS WELL. ALL OF THESE ARE MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS FOR OUR DEPARTMENT, AS WELL AS THE PUBLIC IN GOING TO A VERY HARD GRADE AND HIGH MILEAGE TIRE. WE WERE JUST GETTING OVER 12,000 MILES ON THE STATE BID TIRES IN THE $60.00 RANGE. WE TRIED VARIOUS TIRES AND FOUND BY INCREASING A GRADE, WE DID NOT LOOSE SIGNIFICANT HANDLING AND INCREASED OUR MILEAGE TO APPROXIMATELY 18,000 MILES. THE EXTRA COST WAS APPROXIMATELY $10.00 A TIRE AND IS THE GRADE WE ARE CURRENTLY RUNNING WITH. WE DID TRY ANOTHER HIGHER MILE GRADE AND FOUND THE CONTROL WAS SIGNIFICANTLY COMPROMISED. IN FACT, TIRE MAX TOLD ME EVEN IF WE WANTED THEM, THEY WOULD NOT SELL OR INSTALL THEM FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED REASONS. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER AREA WE TRY TO MINIMIZE THE COST OF OPERATIONS AND STILL PROVIDE EFFECTIVE AND SAFE OPERATION CONCERNING VEHICLE MAINTANCE. AGAIN FOR YOUR INFORMATION.

If zoning ordinances or an official map exist, a board of Minn. Stat. § 15.99. adjustments and appeals must be c.reated by ordinance. The ordinance must provide notice and time requirements. All orders by the board are due within a reasonable time. The board is also required to take minutes or compile a record of proceedings in which any findings, actions t.:'lken on all matters. and final orders must be ìnc1uded. The board can be the same body as the councilor the planning agency, or it can be separate. If the board is a separate body, the council can provide that board decisions are final and subject only to judîcial review,are final subject to appeal to the council and judicial review, or that decisiQns are only advisory to the counci1. Preparation, adoption and amendment of comprehensive plans . Minn. Sut. § 462.255. One of the primary responsibilities of the planning agency is to prepare. review and periodically amend the comprehensive plan. in consultation and coordination with othet municipal agencies and departments. Preparing a comprehensive plan is a · large undertaking. While a planning agency Or commission can and should do most of the job, many communities have found they also need professional assistance. A comprehensive plan often requÍTes the Msistance of a professional planning consultant, or a competent person on the staff of the city. county. regional development commission or neighboring city. Although their services are frequently helpf¡,d, consultants cannot and should not be solely responsible for the development of a comprehensive plan. Local officials, and . planning agencies or commissions in partkular, can help a professional planner make the plan realistic in tenns of the temper, traditions and hopes of the community. An active planning commission can keep the plan alive and updated, ,especially since it is a principal point of reference for council decisions. One very important method of involving the community Îs to conduct publiç hearings before the planning commission or agency.

Once an agency adopts a comprehensive plan or part of a plan, alI proposed land acquisitions and capital improvements of the city, or any other governmental unit with jurisdiction in the city, must &0 to the commission for review. The agency will then submit a written report describing its findings. (The council may, by two--thirds vote, dispense with this requirement if it feels no planning , implkations are involved.) Failure to report in 45 days is deemed approval. The planning commission or agency is responsible for reviewing land use control measures. The Planning Act requires rhe planniIlg agency to review zoning ordinance amendments, subdivision plats and official maps. Public hearings may be held before the planning agency, but the council makes the final datennination. Under most city . ordinances, aU council detenninations having planning implications first go to the. planning agency. Minn. Stat. § 462.354, subd. 2. Finally, the planning agency or commission may get the assignment from the council to act as a board of adjustments and appeals. Again, every city that ha.s a map in effect, must . establish a board of adjustment and appeals. However, because the board has the authority to review the decisions and recommendations of the planning agency, it is usually better to have a ooa¡-d whose members are díffere.nt from those of the planning agency.

J . . CHAPTER 14 The liquor control division of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety must approve wine licenses. The law precludes the issuance of a wine license to the holder of a club license, because a restaurant must serve meals to the general public but a club may not sell intoxicating liquors except to members and guests. Minn. Stat. § 340A.408, subd. A city does not have to provide wine licenses merely because it 2(c). provides for the sale of intoxicating liquor. Furthermore, if the city does provide wine licenses, it may impose restrictions beyond those in the state law--as in more strictly defining eligible restaurants--as long as the requirements do not conflict with the state law. The city may not charge a license fee higher than half that for on-sale liquor licenses or $2,000, whichever is less. If a city wishes to issue wine licenses, it must adopt an ordinance to authorize them. If the city already issues general liquor licenses, it may amend the existing ordinance to allow for wine licenses. If the city has a municipal liquor dispensary, a new wine licensing ordinance is necessary. If a city is dry by . local option, it cannot issue wine licenses. Wine and strong beer restaurants Minn. Stat. § 340A. 404, subd. A city may, by ordinance, allow a business with both a wine 5(b). license and a malt liquor license (3.2. beer) to sell intoxicating malt liquor (strong beer) without another license. The business must have gross receipts which are at least 60 percent attributable to the sale of food. The Legislature's intent was to limit this provision to bona fide restaurants. The restaurant may serve strong beer throughout the week, including Sunday, similar to wine sales if the city otherwise allows Sunday liquor sales. A city may restrict the licensees' authority to sell strong beer on Sunday only by restricting both the strong beer and wine sales. Club licenses !\Iinn. Stat. §§ 340A.1O I, subd. To obtain an on-sale intoxicating liquor license, a club must be 7; 34OA.404, subd. 1(4). a duly organized corporation under state laws for civic, A.G, Op. 218g-15 (Sept. 16, fraternal, social or business purposes; for intellectual improve- 1977), ment; or for the promotion of sports.

Motion Carried 5:0:0 Public Comments: Bud Reber discussed a recent article in the St. Joseph Newsleader where a City Official responded negatively to additional business locating in St. Joseph. He stated that the City has been actively working at increasing the tax base both by belonging to the St. Cloud Area Economic Development Partnership and recently forming an Economic Development Authority. It is Reber's opinion that the City Council should be supportive of the development efforts. Niedenfuer stated that she made the comment and it was taken out of context. Since that time she has apologized to representatives of Taco John and regrets making the comment. She stated that her concern is that the City be cautious as to the types of business that are permitted and encourage the development of specialty businesses. Ellen Wahlstrom questioned at what point does the City discourage competition for the local businesses. The local businesses cannot compete with large chains and the City should do what they can to retain the existing businesses. Fred Reber questioned if St. Ben's is assessed for fire protection based on a formula, and if so what is the formula. Reber stated that his taxes are continually increasing and feels that St. Ben's should be . paying more for the services they receive. He stated that a recent article in the St. Cloud Times indicated the amount that St. Stephen and Brockway Township are paying for fire protection, which is significantly more than St. Ben's contributes. Loso responded that the City cannot require St. Ben's to contribute for fire protection as they are a non-profit organization and are exempt from paying taxes. The Fire Board approached St. Ben's for f?NI s~d ~5¿.l · additional funds and as a result of this meeting they increased their annual contribution from $5,000 to · $10,000. Twit stated by law the Fire Department is required to provide fire protection and we cannot assess them. This is a common problem faced by many Cities. Bills Payable: Weyrens presented the bills payable. Hiemenz questioned the legal fees with regard to Ordinances. Weyrens stated that the Council received new Ordinance Books and a large portion of that expense was the reproduction and binders for the Ordinance Books. Twit questioned whether this expense should have been approved before the expense was incurred. The Council requested to receive a copy of the detailed attorney bill with the bills payable listing. Councilors also discussed the transcription fees and how they are incurred. Ehlert made a motion to approve the bills payable, check numbers 23793 - 23825, as presented. The motion was seconded by Twit. Ayes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 Overtime and Call outs: Twit questioned overtime earned for meeting attendance and if this is a requirement of the job. If the overtime is encountered to take minutes that may be accomplished in a more cost efficient manner. Loso responded that MN Statutes clarify that the Clerk/ Adm is responsible for City Council minutes. Additionally, all employees are allowed to earn Compensatory time and the Council cannot dictate how or when they use that time. Hiemenz stated the City needs to be cautious in dealing with overtime and we need to refer to FLSA for clarification. Loso stated the Council reviewed this matter at length a couple of years ago and made a motion to approve the overtime and call outs as presented; seconded by Niedenfuer. Ayes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert, Twit, Niedenfuer · Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 MAYOR REPORTS Personnel Policy Update: Hiemenz requested authorization to instruct the Personnel Committee to review the existing Personnel Policy and update as necessary. Additionally, the Committee should review the material on Exempt -vs- Non Exempt employees. Hiemenz stated that he has all the information from when the Council addressed this issue previously. Loso encouraged the Council to review all the material from the previous discussions.

The motion was seconded by Loso. A yes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 Police Escort: Hiemenz stated the Council still has the outstanding issue as to whether or not the City will contribute funds to send the Police Chief to Washington D.C. when Officer Klinefelter's name is placed on the Fallen Officer Monument. He stated that he discussed using funds from the Klinefelter Fund (tee shirt funds) with Lindgren and Lindgren was uncomfortable using the funds for this purpose. Ehlert will discuss this further during his report. Economic Partnership: Hiemenz recently attended an Economic Partnership meeting where they discussed the airlines servicing the St. Cloud Area. The Airline proposing to join Norwest at the St. Cloud Airport has recently reported financial difficulty and will not be locating in St. Cloud. Further, . Norwest is discussing the possibility of leaving the St. Cloud Facility. ~lil ~l"'d ~ 5 ë_ 2- - .. ¡,. . St. Cloud Area Planning Organization Meeting: Hiemenz recently attended the APO meeting where Carl Stich discussed the St. Wendel Utility dilemma. After the meeting Hiemenz further discussed the matter with Stich and discovered Stich did not have a clear understanding the process. If it appears that financially it would work to service St. Wendel Township, Stich is requesting to have joint meetings with the City Council and Planning Commission. Additionally, Stich stated that all the easements are in place should St. Wendel be serviced by St. Joseph. Industrial Development: Hiemenz reported that he met with a prospective business wishing to relocate. The business has narrowed the site selection to three cities and St. Joseph is one of them. This business would like to break ground by December 1997. Joseph Street: Hiemenz, Dick Taufen, Public Works Director, and property owners along Joseph Street met to discuss the drainage problems on Joseph Street. To help the drainage the City maintenance will do some trenching and haul in fill on private property with the permission of the property owners. Park Board Appointment: Hiemenz stated that he has reviewed the applications for the Park Board and is ready to make his appointment. Before making his decision he made numerous attempts to contact the Chair of the Park Board to receive input. As the Chair of the Park Board did not return phone calls initiated by the Mayor, Hiemenz is requesting the City Council appoint Dave Thomas to the Park Board, filling the vacant term expiring in 1999. Hiemenz feels that Thomas best fills the need and will bring diversity to the Board. Niedenfuer made a motion to appoint Dave Thomas to the Park Board as requested by Mayor Hiemenz; seconded by Twit. . DISCUSSION Twit questioned the background of Thomas. Hiemenz responded that he has lived in other areas and has exposure to park system. One of his goals is to prevent gang activities in St. Joseph. Loso questioned what happened to the past policy of the subsidiary Boards being able to recommend individuals to fill vacancies. Hiemenz responded that the St. Joseph Ordinance states that the Mayor appoints the members and is ratified by the City Council. Additionally, he made numerous attempts to contact the Chair of the Park Board who did not return his phone messages and he did contact the City Attorney for his opinion before making this recommendation. Loso stated that the Park Board did place an ad for interested persons in November, but due to the Holiday Season they chose to wait until after the New Year to recommend appointment. The Park Board feels that they are not given the opportunity to have input in the selection of new members. Twit questioned if the Park Board By Laws give the Park Board the authority to select their own members and if the By Laws and Ordinance are in conflict. Hiemenz stated that the By Laws should not over rule the Ordinance. Ayes: Hiemenz, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: Loso, Ehlert Motion Carried 3:2:0 Hiemenz requested that a letter be sent to Thomas stating that he has been appointed to the Park Board to fill a term that expires in 1998. At the end of his term he, as well as any other interested citizen, will have the opportunity to apply for a four year term to the Board. Ehlert stated it is important for the Council and Subsidiary Boards to establish a good working relationship. . 42-v\.s~d ~~~ 3 . Councilor Reports . TWIT TIF (Tax Increment Financing) Conference: Twit reported that he recently attend a seminar on TIF Financing. The speaker, David Drown, discussed the basic and mechanics of TIF Financing. Loso requested that some time a presentation be made for the public and the Council as to what TIF is and the impact on City financing.

Twit encourages all Councilors to talk to the license holders before the next Council meeting. EHLERT . Police Escort: Ehlert reported on the use of funds from the Klinefelter Fund (tee shirt sales). He stated that Lindgren is uncomfortable using money from this fund for the Washington Trip. The entire family is going and they did not request funding. Twit stated that he received two (2) phone calls from residents who questioned the benefit to the taxpayer for allowing such an expenditure. Twit stated he could only respond it would be good for the morale of the Police Department. While he feels there is some obligation on the part of the City, he also feels that the City has contributed significantly, Hiemenz stated that the City has not spent much money. Niedenfuer feels that since Klinefelter lost his life defending St. Joseph the expenditure is appropriate. It is an honor to be placed on the monument. Ehlert stated he personally has no problem supporting the expenditure, but questions how the public would respond to such an expenditure. At this time Ehlert requested that Hiemenz open the floor to the public for input. Hiemenz opened the floor for comment: Jim Graeve: Understands the Police Chief is uncomfortable requesting the money and suggested the Council pass a resolution requesting funding assistance, taking the matter out of the hands of the Chief, Graeve also stated that many residents of St. Joseph contributed to the Fund and he feels they would see it an appropriate use of the donated funds. Mike Deutz: Questioned if the Chief will be paid while he is in Washington. Hiemenz responded that Lindgren will be using his vacation time. While he is on vacation he will not be on City time or eligible for associated benefits. Deutz also questioned if the City is setting precedence and stated that he would not be supportive of using City Funds to support the trip to Washington. He concurred with Graeve, it would be an appropriate expenditure to draw from the Klinefelter Fund. He too stated that the residents of St. Joseph contributed greatly to the fund. . Loso read a statement from a letter written by Brad Lindgren where he stated that he will go to Washington regardless of the City contribution and will be glad to pay for the entire trip. -Rev\Ç;yj -?tž 3 ~ 1 " . .. .. . After listening to the public comments and Council comments, Twit made a motion stating the following: The St. Joseph City Council understands the importance of the presence of Police Chief Brad Lindgren at the ceremony when Officer Klinefelter's name is placed on the fallen Officer Monument in Washington DC. However, after soliciting citizen input as to the appropriateness of using City Funds to send the Police Chief to Washington DC it was deemed more appropriate to receive the necessary funding from the Klinefelter Fund (tee shirt fund) . Therefore the City will not authorize any City Funds for the expenses incurred by Chief Lindgren while attending the ceremony. The motion was seconded by Loso. Ayes: Hiemenz, Loso, Ehlert, Twit, Niedenfuer Nays: None. Motion Carried 5:0:0 Comprehensive Plan: The Planning Commission has been working on updating the Comprehensive Plan and the Council should have received a draft.

Monte Estvold - Fire Hall Bond Sale: Monte Estvold, City Bond Counsel, informed the Council that six (6) bids were received for the bonds for the Fire Hall. All the bids were good bids and the low bidder was Dain Bosworth with a net interest rate of 5.5266 %.

Twit questioned the comment on the rating sheet with regard to the debt load of the City. According to the rating St. Joseph has an above average debt for the size of City. Estvold stated that when the City is rated Bond Counsel does not take into account that the Township is responsible for a portion of the bonds. Loso questioned what factors are considered when a City is rated. Estvold stated the following three factors are considered when rating: 1) Fiscal Management; 2) What type of growth the City is experiencing; 3) Tax base -vs- debt level. There being no further questions, Loso made a motion authorizing the issuance, awarding the sale to the low bidder, Dain Bosworth, prescribing the form and details and providing for the payment of $ 1,235,000 General Obligation Bonds of 1997.
