rajhan@rajhan.co . Dear Mr.. Baggenstoss:
www.rajhan.com I am writilg asthe City Attorney for the City ofSt. Joseph. The City has asked me to
review th9 contract for the remodeling of the St. Joseph Bank Building for use as the City
Hall offices. The commencement date of the contract is August 21, 2000. The contract
,
provided for substantial completion within 100 days of the contract. The substantial
completioh was defined as the ability to occupy and utilize the building. By my
calculations, substantial completion should have occurred on or aboût November 30,
I
2000. I
I
. Although ~he City was prepared for some delay in the. completion date, the current delay
of appro~mately 60 days is inexcusable. During this time, the City has included duplicate
utility bills and has lost the use ofbadly needed office space. The delay in completing the
project h~s created logistical nightmares when attempting to schedule the move and
Frank J. Rajkows i·' necessary ¡vendor services.
I
Gordon H. Hans I eier ,
It is the irltent of the City to review this matter to determine available options, including
Frederick L. Grunke but not li~ted to withholding a portion of the final payment. Yourcompany's '
Thomas G.JOVanlVich' concentrated efforts to bring about the immediate completion of this project would be a
John H. Scherer' factor to~e considered by the City when looking at its options. .
i
Paul A Rajkows ·i' I am sending a copy of this letter to the architect as the administrator of the contract,
Kevin F. Gray requesting their assistance in speeding the· completion of the building and interpreting the
City's rights under the contract to seek compensation for the delays in completion.

Sauad Car Damage: . Will stated the 1996 squad car was struck bya drunk driver, and the assessment of
damage is still in process. Will stated the new car will need approximately $ 2,700 of new equipment as
not all the equipment in the '96 squad was salvageable. Since the accident, Will has contacted the State
regarding delivery status of the squad car ordered in2000. The. State is trying to assist the City and
expedite the delivery of the new squad. At this time it is unknown how much e.quipment was damaged in
the accident. Will is requesting authorization to expend the necessary funds to equip the new squad car
when it arrives and estimates the cost of the equipment to be $ 3,000.00. Weyrens stated the City will be
reimbursed for the equipment damaged in the accident. Further, proceeds received for the car from the
. insurance company can be used to further offset the equipment cöst.Lösö madéanioti()n aUthorizing

PUBLIC WORKS
Televisina Sewer Svstem: Public Works Director Dick Taufen reported that he, along with Waste Water
Operator Jim Marthaler and City Engineer Joe Bettendorf, have finished viewing the tapes of the sewer
system.. The televising indicated that one section of the sewer syste.m along Date Streetis in need of
repair. The most economical way to fix the areais to open the road and replace the piping. Taufen
stated the City Engineer is in the process of preparing a report to the Council along with projected costs .
for the repair of sewer piping under Date Street.
Clean Storm Sewers: Taufen reported the storm sewer catch basins appear to have difficulty handling
water well after rainfalls, and feels there could be considerable dirt in the drainage system which would
slow down the system. Taufen stated that he and the CityEngineer are investigating the possibility of
cleaning the system, as well as a drainage outlet in the future if the problem persists. Schneider
questioned how often storm sewers are cleaned and when St. Joseph last did so, Taufen reported that to
the best of hisknowfedge, the storms sewers have neverbee.n cleaned. Hosch questioned when the
system would be cleaned, to which Taufen responded sometime late summer or early fall.
Water Meter Reading: Taufen requested the Council consider estimating the meter readings for the
JanuarylFebruary utility bill. The Maintenance Department has not been able. bread meters because of
the recent snow storm and shortage of staff. Hosch made a motion to estimate the water meter
readings for the January/February utility bill as requested; seconded by Schneider and passed
unanimously.
The Council expressed their thanks to the Maintenance Department for the excellent job performed
during the recent snow storm.
Noise Ordinance Discussion: The Council reviewed information received from the City Attorney regarding
enforcement of the Noise Ordinance. Recently, the City lost a court case for a noise violation which
occurred in 2000. The jUdge ruled that the Ordinance requires the complaint be filed by someone living in
the neighborhood. Although in this recent case the Police Department received a complaint from a
nearby resident, the Officer acted as the complainant. Since the Officer did not reside in the
neighborhood the judge dismissed the case. City Attorney John Scherer presented information on
amending the Ordinance, alleviating this problem in the future.. Ehlert encouraged Will to instructthe
Officers to take a proactive stance regarding noise violations and warn residents before a situation .
warrants filing of a complaint. Will responded that the departmentis curre.ntly doing such. Löso made a
motion authorizing the City Attorney to draft the necessary Ordinance Amendment to St. Josech

St. J seph), Al ~iefert (St. ¡Wendel Township). Clerk/Administrator Judy Weyrens.
I
Oth rs Present: Jim Marthaler, JeffTaufen, Brian Orcutt, Randy Torborg, Steve Harris.
Minhtes: Bechtold made ia motion to approve the minutes of November 2000 as presented; seconded
by 1os0 and passed nnariimonslY.
~cial Reoort: Bechtold made a motion to accept the 4" Qnarter 2000 Financial Report as
pre ented; seconded by 1,oso and passed unanimously.
OLD BUSINESS
Fir Hall Phone Line: Theisen reported that a second phone line has been installed in the Fire Hall so the
, .
De artment can access tht internet.
I
D Matchin Grant: T¡heFire Department did not receive a matching grant this year from the DNR.
Th grant was intended t1 fund the purchase of a radio.
Firefighter Compensatiort: The Board discussed compensation for firefighters while attending meetings.
. Thbsen stated that firefighters are not compensated for individual meetings.. Firefighters are assigned to
vtous committees, whiqh are part of thetr duties as a firefighter. The Board agreed to continue the
po icy as in the past and not change compensation methods.
Re lacement of Ladder Truck: The firefighter Truck Committee appeared before the Fire Board to
di cuss the possibility o~replacing the ladder truck. Representatives of the Truck Committee approached
th College and Monastery of St. Benedict regarding contributing to the purchase of a new truck. When
the current ladder truck was purchased St. Benedict's contributed significantly. Since that donation, St.
Bdnedict's contributes aimually fire equipment. The current contribution rate is $ 10,000 per year.
4en approacmngSt. ~enedict's, the Conunittee solicited a donation using one of the following
7)1 ~h~::~ime donation df $ 100,000; or 2) an increase in the annual contribution and apply the additional
aTount towards the ladder truck. St. Benedict Physical Plant Director, Jim Fredricks indicated that the
CRllegelMonastery is nJt in a position to contribute a lump sum at this time, but will consider increasing
Iir annual contributio~. However, at ,this time the Truck Committee has not received a finn
c· mmitment from St. Benedict's.

,
Steve Harris of General Safety appeared before the Board to present costs and financing options for the
p oposed purchase. H~rris stated that he has been working with the Truck Committee and through
d· scussion it was deten1Üned that four options are available regarding the. currentladdertruck.
1. Replace the body and cab of the existing truck
2. Replacb the existing ladder with a new 50' ladder
3. Replac~ the existing ladder with a new 65' ladder
4. Keep.9xisting unit.

Page 2 of 3
According to Harris, a new ladder truck is approximately $ 355,000. The price difference between .
refurbishing the current truck with a new 65' ladder and purchasing a new truck is approximately $
50,000 - $ 60,000.
Harris stated that financing options are available to the City and presented the Board with information
prepared by Baystone Financial. The information presented included the City paying $ 200,000 as a
down payment with the balance payable at 4.282%.
Board Members discussed the past, present and future needs of the Department. If the Board were to
expend a large portion of the truck fund for the purchase of a ladder truck, future equipment purchases
including a rescue van may need to be postponed, The Board requested the Department review all
equipment and establish aJist prioritizing the replacement thereof. It was the consensus of the Board not
to deplete the truck fund, rather review the financial implications of varying down payments on the
ladder truck.
Loso questioned Harris if demonstration trucks are available for purchase. Harris stated that each
department has specific needs and demonstration trucks are not readily available. When a company
prepares a demo truck, more than likely it will be equipped with extensive options, many of which are not
needed by all departments. Therefore, the cost ofa custom truck may be less than the discounted demo
model.
The Board questioned the trade-in value ofthe existing ladder truck. Harris recommended the City sell
the truck outright to a community that does not have a ladder truck. The truck has a value of
approximately$ 15,000 - $ 20,000. Theisen stated when the City sold the pumper truck, the City was
able to obtain more than the trade-in value. .
Before a decision is made regarding the purchase orrefurbishing ofthe ladder truck, the Board would like
a firm commitment fTom St. Benedict's. Also, the Fire Board requested Weyrens contact the fmancing
company and request various financial scenarios. When all the information is received the Fire Board
will meet in special session to further consider the matter.
NEW BUSINESS
Drill Instructors: Loso made a motion authorizing the expenditure of up to $ 1,200 for drill
instructors for the year 2001. The motion was s~conded by Theisen and passed unanimously.
Fire Conference: Bechtold made a motion authorizing the expenditure to send two firefighters to the
State Fire Convention in Detroit Lakes. The motion was seconded by Loso and passed
unanimously.
Community Fire Hall: Theisen stated the City Office staff has expressed concern regarding the use of the
Fire Hall by individuals using the facility for profit. The Board redefined the policy regarding the use of
the Community Room. Property owners within the Fire District are welcome to use the facility for
gatherings and meetings. However, the space cannot be used for profit making ventures and people
wishing to reserve the room for such will be denied.
Establish Rate for Chief Reimbursement: Theisen requested the Fire Board authorize the Chiefto be paid
$ 10.00 per hour for meetings attended that are not regular fire meetings. Theisen stated the Fire Chief is
the Fire Marshall and is required to be present at certain inspections. Bechtold stated that as a Township .
Supervisor he is compensated for meetings attended and concurs that Theisen should as well. Therefore,

. La Playette;:..- In you packet you received a Memo from Gary regarding two incidents on one
night with regard to minors in the bar. I referred the memo to John Scherer. He stated that
I
while the Ordinance does state that no one under 21· years of age can be in a liquor establishment
after 9:00P,M, the incidents are questionable whether a violation did .occur. It is more teChnical
than clear. Therefore, it is his recommendation to have the Police Chief meet "lith the owners
and discus, the liquor license provisi~ns and warn him that this cannot not happen in the future.
I
League Policy Position - Veteran's Preference: Gary Then, a Councilor from Sauk Rapids
contacted tþe City and requested the City Council pass a resolution asking the League to NOT
make changes to the Veteran's Preference Policy. I included in your packet the information
regarding the position of the League.
¡
Ted Schmidt Northland 5 Improvements: Ted will be asking the City Council to consider
bonding for the improvements to Northland 5. lithe City agrees to such, the stepS are as
follows: I
I., City Council authorizes SEH, Joe Bettendorf to conduct a feasibility report.
I Ted Schmidt agrees to pay for study in the event the project does not occur.
21 City Council accepts report and orders the improvement Ted Schmidt agrees
I to waive the 429 Improvement hearings process. The assessments are certified
I
,
i to the auditor for attachment to the individual parcels.
3l Avon Lumber One guarantees that if in anyone given year the bond fimd does
I not have adequate cash to pay the annual payments, Lumber One will pay the
City so the payments can be made.
.
. Page 1
I have discussed the matter with John, Joe and Monte all of whom feel this would not be a big risk to the City. .
However the Council should give some thought as to how this will affect future development. . By bonding for
a developer we do not want to establish a blanket policy rather one that will be reviewed on a case by case
basis. Avon Lumber One has a good history with the City and the decision to bond can be based on that
history.
Enclosed with your second packet is a letter &om A van Lumber One, Ted Schmidt addressing the above items.
Additions to the Consent Agenda: In typing the agenda I missed two items and will ask the Council to consider
adding them on Thursday night. They are as follows:
1. City Office Computers: Some Qfyou are aware that my coroputerhas run outofharddrive space and
is not functioning properly. We can upgrade the hard drives, but the computers are so slow that it does
not make sense. We had budgeted to upgrade our computers to a processing speed of 933 mhz, we are
currently at 166. We would keep our monitors and backup systems. At this time we have $ 8,500 in
our computer budget and will be spending $ 2,100.00.
2. Lawn Mower: The Maintenance Department is requesting authorization to trade our 1995 John Deere
Lawn Mower and broom for a new machine. The new machine has a value of$ 24,204. Rudolph's
Equipment will trade in our old machine and sell us the new machine for $ 3,800.00. . The current
budget without the rollover &om prior years is $ 6,000.

rajhan@rajhan.com Dear Mr.· Baggenstoss:
www.rajhan.com I am writing ksthe City Attorney for the City ofSt.Joseph. The City has asked me to
review the c1ntract far the remodeling of the! St. J osep,h Bank Building for use as the City
Hall offices.. The commencement date of the contract IS August 21,2000. The contract
provided for substantial completion within 100 days of the contract. The substantial
completion ~as defined as the ability to occupy and utilize the building. By my
calculations, .. substantial completion should have occurred on or about November 30,
2000.
. Although the[ City was prepared for some delay in the completion date, the current delay
of approximately 60 days is inexcusable. During this time, the City has included duplicate
utility bills arid haslost the use of badly needed office space. The delay in completing the
project has cieated logistical nightmares when attempting to schedule the move and
Frank J. Rajkowski .. necessary ve4dor services.
i
Gordon H. Hansmeier It is the intent of the City to review this matter to. determine available options, including
Frederick L. Grunke but not limite~to withholding a portion of the final payment. Your company's
Thomas G. Jovanovich' concentrated ¡efforts to bring about the immediate completion of this project would be a
factor to be cbnsidered by the City when looking at its options.
John H. Scherer· !
¡
,
Paul A Rajkowski' I am sending ~ copy of this letter to the architect as the administrator of the contract,
:<evltl F. Gray requesting th~ir assistance in speeding the completion of the building and interpreting the
\Vi!liam J. Cashman City's rights ~nder the contract to seek compensation for the delays in completion.

PUBLIC WORKS
Televisinq Sewer Svstem: Public Works Director Dick Taufen reported that he, along with Waste Water
Operator Jim Marthaler and City Engineer Joe Bettendorf, have finished viewing the tapes of the sewer
system. . The televising indicated that one section of the sewer system along Date Street is in need of
repair. The most economical way to fix the area is to open the road and replace the piping. Taufen
stated the City Engineer is in the process of preparing a report to the Council along with projected costs .
for the repair of sewer piping under Date Street.
Clean Storm Sewers: Taufen reported the storm sewer catch basins appear to have difficulty handling
water well after rainfalls, and fee.ls there could be considerable dirt in the drainage system which would
slow down the system. Taufen stated that he and the City Engineer are investigating the possibility of
cleaning the system, as well as a drainage outlet in the future if the problem persists. Schneider
questioned how often storm sewers are cleaned and when St. Joseph last did so. Taufenreported that to
the best of his knowledge, the storms sewers have never been cleaned. Hosch questioned when the
system would be cleaned, to which Taufen responded sometime late summer or early fall.
Water Meter Readinq: Taufen requested the Council consider estimating the meter readings for the
January/February utility bill. The Maintenance Department has not been able bread meters because of
the recent snow storm and shortage of staff. Hosch made a motion to estimate the water meter
readings for the January/February utility bill as requested; seconded by Schneider and passed
unanimously.
The Council expressed their thanks to the Maintenance Department for the excellent job performed
during the recent snow storm.
Noise Ordinance Discussion: The Council reviewed information received from the City Attorney regarding
enforcement of the Noise Ordinance. Recently, the City lost a court case for a noise violation which
occurred in 2000. The judge ruled that the Ordinance requires the complaint be filed by someone living in
the neighborhood. Although in this recent case the Police Department received a complaint from a
nearby resident, the Officer acted as the complainant. Since the Officer did not reside in the
neighborhood the judge dismissed the case.. City Attorney John Scherer presented information on
amending the Ordinance, alleviating this problem in the future. Ehlert encouraged Will to instruct the
Officers to take a proactive stance regarding noise violations and warn residents before a situation .
warrants filing of a complaint. Will responded that the department is currently doing such. Loso made a
motion authorizing the City Attorney to draft the necessary Ordinance Amendment to St.Joseoh

Re lacement of Ladder Truck: The firefighter Truck Committee appeared before the Fire Board to
dis~uss the possibility of replacing the ladder truck. Representatives of the Truck Committee approached
the College and MonasterY of St. Benedict regarding contributing to the purchase of a new truck. When
the furrent ladder truck whs purchased St. Benedict's contributed significantly. Since that donation, St.
Berdict'S contributes =iually fife equipment. The CUlTent contribution rate is $ 10,000 per year.
When approaching St. Be:µedict's,theCommittee solicited a donation using one of the following
met ods: I
1) a onetime donation of $ 100,000; or 2) an increase in the annual contribution and apply the additional
I
am unt towards the ladder truck. St. Benedict Physical Plant Director, Jim Fredricks indicated that the
I " .
Co~ ege/MonasteI?'is.not r a position to ~on~bute a lump sum at.this time, but wi~l consider increasing
theI annual contributIOn: However, at thIS tIme the Truck Cormmttee has not receIved a firm
co mitment ITom St. Benedict's.
Ste~e Hams of General slfety appeared before the Board to present costs and financing options for the
pro·osed purchase. Harris stated that he has been working with the Truck Committee and through
disc~ssion it was determined that four options are available regarding the.currentladdertruck.
1. Replace the body and cab of the existing truck
2. Replace the existing ladder with a new 50' ladder
3. Replace t~e existing ladder with anew65' ladder
4. Keep existing unit.

According to Harris, a new ladder truck is approximately $ 355,000. The price difference between .
refurbishing the current truck with a new 65' ladder and purchasing a new truck is approximately $
50,00Q - $ 60,000.
Harris stated that financing options are available to the City and presented the Boardwith information
prepared by Baystone Financial. The information presented included the City paying $200,000 as a
down payment with the balance payable at 4.282%.
Board Members discussed the past, present and future needs of the Department. If the Board were to
expend a large portion of the truck fund for the purchase of a ladder truck, future equipment purchases
including a rescue van may need to be postponed. The Board requested the Department review all
equipment and establish aJist prioritizingthe replacement thereof. It was the consensus of the Board not
to deplete the truck fund, rather review the financial implications of varying down payments on the
ladder truck.
Loso questioned Harris if demonstration trucks are available for purchase. Harris stated that each
department has specific needs and demonstration trucks are not readily available. When a company
prepares a demo truck, more than likely it will be equipped with extensive options, many of which are no
needed by all departments. Therefore, the cost of a custom truck may be less than the discounted demo
model.
The Board questioned the trade-in value of the existing ladder truck. Harris recommended the City sell
the truck outright to a community that does not have a ladder truck. The truck has a value of
approximately$ 15,000 - $ 20,000. Theisen stated when the City sold the pumper truck, the City was
able to obtain more than the trade-in value. .
Before a decision is made regarding the purchase or refurbishing of the ladder truck, the Board would lik
a firm commitment from St. Benedict's. Also, the Fire Board requested Weyrens contact the fmancing
company and request various financial scenarios. When all the information is received the Fire Board
will meet in special session to further consider the matter.

. La Plavetre ~ In you packet you receivod a Memo wm Gary regarding two incidenls on one
night with regard to minors in the bar. I referred the memo to John Scherer. He stated that
while the Orµïnance does state that no one under21 years of age can be in a liquor establishment
after 9:00PM, the incidents are questionable whether a violation did occur. It is more technical
than clear. Therefore, it is his recommendation to have the Police Chief meet \\ith the mvners
I·, '.
and discuss tpe liquor license provisions and warn him that this cannot not happen in the future.
League pOlicl Position - Veternn 's Preference: Gary Theo, a Councilor fiom Sauk Rapids
contacted the City and requested the City Council pass a resolution asking the League to NOT
make change~ to the Veteran's Preference Policy. I included in your packet the information
regarding the¡position of the League.

Ted Schmidt,! Northland 5 Improvements: Ted will be asking the City Council to consider
bonding for the improvements to Northland 5. If the City agreèsto·such, the steps are as
follows: 1
1. City Council authorizes SEH, Joe Bettendorf to conduct a feasibility report.
Ted Schmidt agrees topay for study in the event the project does not occur.
2. City Council accepts report and orders the improvement. Ted Schmidt agrees
to waive the 429 Improvement hearings process. The assessments are certified
to the auditor for attachment to the individual parcels.
3. Avon Lumber One guarantees that if in anyone given year the bond fund does
not have adequate cash to pay the annual payments, Lumber One will pay the
City SO the payments can be made.
.
. Page 1
I have discussed the matter with John, Joe and Monte all of whom feel this would not be a big risk to the City. .
However the Council should give some thought as to how this will affect future development. By bonding for
a developer we do not want to establish a blanket policy rather one that will be reviewed on a case by case
basis. Avon Lumber One has a good history with the City and the decision to bond can be based on that
history.
Enc10sedwith your second packet is a letter ftom Avon Lumber One, Ted Schmidt addressing the above items.
Additions to the Consent Agenda: In typing the agenda I missed two items and will ask the Council to consider
adding them on Thursday night. They are as follows:
1. City Office Computers: Some Qf you are aware that my corop\.lterhas run outofhard drive space and
is not functioning properly. We can upgrade the hard drives, but the computers are so slow that it does
not make sense. We had budgeted to upgrade our computers to a processing speed of933 mhz, we are
currently at 166. We would keep our monitors and backup systems. At this time we have $ 8,500 in
our computer budget and will be spending $ 2,100.00.
2. Lawn Mower: The Maintenance Department is requesting authorization to trade our 1995 John Deere
Lawn Mower and broom for a new machine. The newmachine has a value of$ 24,204. Rudolph's
Equipment will trade in our old machine and sell us the new machine for $ 3,800.00. The current
budget without the rollover ftom prior years is $ 6,000.
