He stated that he tried to put in a lawn right before the ban was implemented. He did all of the prep work and then when he heard of the watering ban, he was told to wait to lay sod until the ban had been lifted. He laid the sod anyhow, but stated that 3 hours every other night is not enough to keep the lawn healthy, According to Petroski, St. Joseph is not the only city with this problem. He has contacted other cities such as Sartell and Sauk Rapids. They use the oddleven watering system as well, however they issue permits to those with new lawns. He also contacted several cities in the Twin Cities and they do things a similar way. He stated that it is frustrating to see his neighbors watering freely when there is a watering ban. According to Petroski, he has seven zones and he would need 5 hours of watering time to water each zone for 45 minutes. Petroski is asking the Council to consider issuing permits to residents who have new lawns. . -------------- Draft August4,2005 Page 2 of 7 Colleae of St. Benedict - Variance Reauest.

The College is requesting a larger opening to accommodate the traffic at the Presidents Residence. Previously, the Planning Commission conducted a Public Hearing on the matter and recommended the Council approve the variance as requested. The findings of fact included that since the Presidents Residence was built as an expanded single family residence, unique circumstances apply and the variance should be granted. Jim Fredricks, Facility Management Officer, spoke on behalf of the College of St. Benedict. He stated that it is very exciting to have the President of the College living in the community. The President's Residence will be used primarily for her residence, however approximately 10% of the time it will be used as hospitality suites for the College's donors. Fredricks advised the Council that when they do host functions at the residence, the College does the catering. As a result, there are vehicles entering and leaving the premise at the same time. There is enough room to accommodate 70 people in the house and there is seating for 24 for dinner. Rassier stated that the Planning Commission looked at why the 6' variance should and should not be granted. One reason for which this variance should be granted is that there is no off-street parking along County Road 121. The catering vehicles have to be able to get in and out of the driveway. On the other hand, the City is trying to keep the curb cuts standard in the City and this would deviate from that plan. Fredricks stated that as this project progressed, they found out more about the possible uses for the facility. Rieke made a motion to accept the Findings of the Planning Commission and grant a 6' variance on the maximum curb cut. The motion was seconded by Symanietz. Ayes: Carlbom, Rieke, Symanietz Nays: None Abstain: Rassier Motion Carried 3:0:1 . Councilor Wick arrived. Noise Violation, Dan Schmitz. 111 - 6th Avenue NE: Carbom stated that the Council has received an alleged noise violation for the property located at 111 - 6th Avenue NE. The incident occurred on July 10, 2005. The property owner has been notified of the alleged violation and an evidentiary hearing was not requested, Therefore, the Council must aCknowledge the violation and determine the disposition. Rassier made a motion acknowledging that a noise violation did occur on July 10,2005 at 111 - 6th Avenue NE. The motion was seconded by Symanietz and passed unanimously. There were some questions raised as to the correct address of the violation. The letter that Schmitz received showed 111 - 6th Avenue NE, whereas the Police Report showed 109 - 6th Avenue SE. Chief Jansky was present at the meeting and he verified that the correct address was 111 - 6th Avenue NE. Schmitz approached the commissioners to discuss the alleged violation. He stated that he never received a letter notifying him of the violation. According to Schmitz, he read it in the Newsleader and then followed up with the City. The City Offices were then notified of the incident and a letter was then given to Schmitz. Schmitz also stated that he was told that there was a warning issued in June that he was never made aware of. He made the Council aware of the fact that he was upset about not receiving notice of the warning, as he cannot correct a problem that he is not aware of. Chief Jansky approached the Council to discuss the policy and why things were done the way they were. According to Jansky, the tenants were first given a verbal warning. Not all of the landlords are notified when a warning is given. He admitted that it was his fault that the information was not given to Weyrens in time for her to begin the process. . -' Draft August4,2005 Page 3 of 7 . Rassier made a motion to impose a $150 fine to Schmitz for the noise violation that occurred on July 10, 2005 at 111 - 6th Avenue SE. The motion was seconded by Rieke. Discussion: Carlbom questioned whether or not the same tenants will be living at the residence for the rental license period 2005 - 2006. Schmitz stated that they will be there all year, however the tenants signed a policy stating that if another noise violation were to occur, they would need to vacate immediately. Schmitz asked that this not go on his record. Both Rassier and Carlbom advised him that this would go on his record. Ayes: Carlbom, Rassier, Rieke, Symanietz Nays: None Abstain: Wick Motion Carried 4:0:1 Arcon Development. request for waiver of drainaoe escrow: Previously, the City Council authorized execution of the Development Agreement between the City of St. Joseph and Arcon Development. The Development Agreement included a provision for security of improvements. The Developer, Rick Packer, indicated that he would be completing the development in phases, which the Council agreed to. The Council only agreed to the subdividing of work, not relief of security requirements. Packer has requested relief of the security provisions and this can only be completed by resolution of the City Council. Rick Packer, Arcon Development, approached the Councilors to address his request for waiver of the drainage escrow. He stated that he had had discussions with Weyrens and there were some misunderstandings between them. Due to the many delays, Packer previously advised the Council that he would not be able to complete the project this year. As a result, he was only going to do the grading this year. The issue now becomes whether or not he is to provide a letter of credit for both the grading as well as erosion control or if he can simply provide a letter of credit to cover the erosion control. Packer stated that he has a NPDES Permit with the State, whereas if there any issues that arise, the State would . come and check the site for compliance. Tom Jovanovich, City Attorney, was present at the meeting as well. He stated that he does not normally like to negotiate Developer Agreements. At a staff meeting, it was decided that Packer was going to provide a letter of credit for the grading and erosion control portion of the project, which would be $460,000. Now, he is asking to cut that amount down and only provide a letter of credit for the erosion control portion, which is only $106,000. Packer stated that he misinterpreted the Developer's Agreement when it referred to "mass grading", as he had never seen that before. He also mentioned that Weyrens agreed to allow them to grade for two weeks. According to Ekola, Arcon will be doing both the site grading as well as the erosion control this year. Rassier stated that he drove by the construction site and it appears as if they are doing mass grading as the top sod is already gone and 60% of the black dirt has been moved and removed. Packer advised the Council that Rassier is correct and they are now working on scraping and clearing the lot. Wick questioned Packer on the amount of work that will be done. Packer stated that his is willing to provide an escrow equal to the erosion control costs or $106,000. The work that will be completed is approximately $ 460,000. With this being said, Carlbom questioned Packer as to what he thought "mass grading" meant. Packer advised the Council that he thought it meant grading for utilities or public improvements. Carlbom stated that there seemed to be some confusion on how it was written in the Developer Agreement. The entire Agreement was not available for the Council to refer to. In his defense, Packer stated that agreements don't always make sense. Jovanovich; however, stated that this same Developer Agreement is used in every City that he represents and that this is the first time there is a request to have part of this waived. According to Bettendorf, he hasn't seen this in a long time. Jovanovich asked Bettendorf for his opinion, from an engineering perspective, on the following issue: With this area being cleared so close to the river and the mass amount of dirt that is being moved, can the City clean up the area, if need be, for $106,000? Bettendorf stated that he couldn't assure him that . $106,000 will cover all those costs. Bettendorf stated that we require this same type of escrow from all contractors doing work in the City, even if it is for a public improvement project. Jovanovich stated that -------------- ---- Draft August 4, 2005 Page 4 of 7 Packer signed a Memorandum of Understanding requiring the escrow for the site gradinglerosion control. . The escrow serves as a security for the City in a worst-case scenario, Wick made a motion to keep the Developer Agreement as it is written, required the Developer to comply with the security provision of the same. Further, Administration should verify that the Development Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding have been executed and recorded. The motion was seconded by Symanietz. Carlbom stated that he is still concerned about how this information was written in the Developer Agreement that was signed by both parties. Packer stated that he would like the Council to separate the site grading and erosion control in the Developer Agreement. According to Rassier, the total costs for all of the improvements are $1,200,000, whereas they are only being asked for $460,000. Rieke stated that the timeliness of recording the Developer Agreement should be dealt with at another time. Wick amended the motion to remove the need to verify that the plat and Developer Agreements are filed properly. The motion was seconded by Symanietz and passed unanimously. Northland Heights Lumber One Avon, Northland Heiahts Final Plat: Ekola stated that she has reviewed the final plat for Northland Heights and has one comment. Block 5 Lot 3 & Block 6 Lot 1, the utility easement should be increased to 30' to accommodate the depth of the utility being installed. Carlson of Lumber One Avon agreed to the change. . Rassier made a motion to approve the Final Plat for Northland Heights as recommended by the Planning Commission. Approval is contingent upon the additional 5' easement width between Block 5 Lot 3 and Block 6 Lot 1. The motion was seconded by Rieke and passed unanimously. Lumber One Avon. Northland Heiahts Develooment Aareement: The Council was presented with the . Development Agreement between the City of St. Joseph and Lumber One Avon. Mayor Carlbom and Jovanovich stated that the Agreement is not complete, as sections 4.1, 7,14 and 7,17 have been left blank. Rassier questioned whether or not this matter could be tabled to a future meeting, allowing the Agreement to be completed. Carlson stated that Lumber One would like to begin as soon as possible and requested to be placed on the first available agenda. Rassier made a motion to table action on the Development Agreement until August 6, 2005, allowing staff to complete the Agreement. The motion was seconded by Wick and passed unanimously. Carlson requested the Council consider deferring the assessments for Jasmine Lane until phase two and to allow Lumber One credit for the City required trail through the wetland. The Council deferred this matter to staff for review. Northland Heiahts. Public Imorovement Bids: Ekola stated that the bids were opened on Tuesday, August 4,2005 for the Northland Heights Improvements. The following bids were received: Erin Contracting $ 1,679,133.49 Randy Kramer Excavating 1,789,998.37 SJ Louis Construction 1,974,792.80 JR Ferche Inc 2,068,564,08 Richard Knutson 2,092,882,95 Kuechle Underground 2,128,198.00 RL Larson Excavating 2,129,274.08 Barbarossa & Sons 2,185,075.07 . ------- Draft August 4, 2005 Page 5 of 7 . Ekola reported that Erin Contracting, Coon Rapids, MN was the lowest bidder. Based on the lack of experience with this contractor, SEH contacted their references. Previously, one of the employees owned a company that did work in the City of St. Joseph and that company went under. Ekola stated that she checked with other engineers in cities where Erin Contracting has done work, She received all good comments. Wick questioned how they came in so much lower with their bid. The biggest difference in cost is the dirt work. Bettendorf stated that they must have proposed to do the work at cost because their bid does assume the cost to do the work. Ekola stated that their costs for dewatering were also lower, which she stated is due to the fact that they have their own equipment. According to Ekola, she would rather go with the second lowest bidder because of past experience with them, however, no experience with St. Joseph does not mean that Erin Contracting is not a responsible contractor. Jovanovich stated that the City must accept the lowest responsible bidder. Rassier made a motion to adopt Resolution 2005-18 accepting the low bid of Erin Contracting in the amount of $ 1,679,133.49 for the improvements for Northland Heights. The motion was seconded by Rieke and passed unanimously. CITY ENGINEER REPORTS Proposed 2006 Street Improvement Proiect: Ekola stated that they are asking the City Council to authorize SEH to prepare the Feasibility Report for the 2006 Street Improvement Project, which will consist of improving the following streets and replacing water and sewer lines: o 1st Avenue SE & NE (from Baker Street to Hwy 75) o 2nd Avenue SE & NE (from Baker Street to Ash Street E) o 3rd Avenue SE & NE (from Baker Street to Ash Street E) o Able Street E (from 1 st Avenue SE to 3rd Avenue SE) . Rassier made a motion to adopt Resolution 2005-19 authorizing SEH to prepare the Feasibility Report for the 2006 Street Improvement Project. The motion was seconded by Wick and passed unanimously. 2005 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation: Ekola reported that the Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation for the Date Street section was included in the Capital Improvement Plan for 2005 at a cost of $20,600. The section near Birch Street W, however, was not included in the Capital Improvement Plan. It is the recommendation of the public works staff and engineering that this section be included with the 2005 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation, Rassier made a motion to authorize SEH to obtain quotes for the 2005 Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation. The motion was seconded by Symanietz and passed unanimously. North east/west corridor study: Bettendorf reported that last week he met with Judy Weyrens, Dick Taufen, Scott Mareck (APO) and Mitch Anderson (Stearns County) to review the proposals for the corridor study. The North east/west corridor study will consist of realigning County Road 2 from the Interstate to the west of the City west of Hwy 75 and then realigning the north corridor east of the City limits to County Road 3 on the west. After their meeting, it was determined that interviews were not necessary. Proposals were received from SRF, WSB, and Boonestroo, Anderlik, and Associates. The proposals were as follows: 0 SRF $314,406 0 WSB $337,666 0 Boonestroo $349,849 WSB and Boonestroo included the delineation of wetlands in their proposals, which SRF did not. These . are only good for 3 years and cost $7-8,000. SRF did not include that in their proposal, as it is too Draft August 4, 2005 Page 6 of 7 premature at this time. Bettendorf stated that the project budget is $371,000, of which $220,000 will come . from Federal Funds, $118,000 is City responsibility and $33,000 is Stearns County responsibility. Bettendorf also stated that the following two federal studies may need to be completed during the study process: 0 4F: The impact of the project on parks: is there enough crossing at the Wobegon Trail without affecting this, 0 6F: County Road 3 to angle west: taking right of way or taking of parkland (Millstream) where federal money was spent. If this is necessary, it will cost roughly $4,000. Wick questioned if there will be an increase in the amount of traffic to which Bettendorf replied yes. There will also be a Phase 1 Cultural Evaluation done as well, which will look at any historical items such as Indian Mounds. None of the proposals included this, but Bettendorf stated that they will work with MN Dot to accomplish this. If the City uses one of MN Dot's consultants, MN Dot will pay for 80% of the evaluation. A Phase 2 evaluation will be done as well if more detail is needed. Bettendorf stated that he would recommend that the Council award the contract to SRF. Jovanovich advised Bettendorf to put the contract together and then bring it back for Council approval. Rieke made a motion to award the study to SRF upon approval of the contract. The motion was seconded by Wick and passed unanimously.

Public Hearinq - Libertv Pointe. Drainaqe Easement Release: Weyrens advised the Council that when Liberty Pointe was platted, the common area for the attached Townhomes functioned as a drainage way and was recorded on the plat.

KDV - Audit 2004: Jennifer Thienes, KDV approached the Councilors to discuss the 2004 Audit. She explained that this is a lot later than normal; however this is due to the fact that there have been some significant changes in how the City reports its information. Cities began implementing the change in 1999 and ithas been phased in according to the size of each City. Thienes stated that in the Independent Auditor's Report, there were three items to explain: . 1. The report states that the financial statements are the responsibility of the City's management. Draft August 18,2005 Page 2 of 4 2. KDV conducted and audit of the financial statements, and they gave a clean opinion of the City's . financial statements, 3. The City implemented a new financial reporting model, GASB 34. Thienes reported that on the balance sheet all of the governmental necessities are reported as government activities, Business-type activities include transactions for water and sewer fees. The biggest change on this statement is that under Capital Assets - Infrastructure, all city assets are included. The debts related to these capital assets (Net Assets - Unrestricted) are also included on this balance sheet. She also stated that the Statement of Activities is a summary of all of the City's Funds and their expenses. This statement also takes depreciation into consideration. There was also another Balance Sheet done for all of the Governmental Funds, which is just a different way of presenting the fund information. The Audit also includes a management letter, which provides a financial analysis of all of the revenues and expenditures for the General and Enterprise Funds over the past five years. This analysis showed that the revenues in the General Fund exceeded the expenditures. Thienes stated that the breakdown of General Fund Revenues remained similar to those of 2003. The Enterprise Funds, which include the Refuse, Water, Sewer and Storm Water Funds, have shown consistent performance over the past several years as well, Thienes stated that similar to the General Fund, the expenditures for the Enterprise Funds have increased; however they are proportioned similar to previous years. In conclusion, Thienes reported that the City has a small office staff, which does not create an ideal accounting checks and balance system, however, it is very common in most cities. She also stated that they are required to report any legal compliance findings. In reference to the Park Dedication Fees, they noted that these fees must be put into a special fund. Thienes mentioned that they did offer a few management recommendations as well. There were no questions from the Council members; however Thienes stated that the Council should follow up with City staff to check on the status of the Management . decisions. Wick made a motion to accept the 2004 audit as presented. The motion was seconded by Symanietz and passed unanimously. CITY ENGINEER REPORTS 2006 Trunk Watermain Imorovements: Ekola reported that the 2006 Trunk Watermain Improvements will consist of a 16' pipe extending from Minnesota Street to the proposed Water Treatment Site. The actual route has not yet been determined. At this time, they are requesting approval to proceed with the Feasibility Report. The report will help form an opinion as to the probable costs as well as financing options for the project. Most of the area is not in the City, and as a result, the City cannot use special assessments to fund the project. According to Ekola, the City will most likely have to fund this through trunk fees as land is developed or through WAC fees. Rieke made a motion to adopt resolution 2005-21 ordering the Feasibility Report for the 2006 Trunk Watermain Improvements. The motion was seconded by Symanietz and passed unanimously. Field Street StudY - Additional Work Items: Bettendorf stated that WSB & Associates is requesting additional compensation for the Field Street Study, They are requesting to complete Wetland Delineation and a Traffic Noise Study to help determine which alternative may be the best option, These studies were included as alternatives in the proposal and were not needed at the beginning of the Study. The costs associated with these studies are consistent or lower than the proposal submitted to the City. Weyrens clarified that in anticipation of completing the additional tasks, the funding for the study includes the alternatives. . -- Draft August 18,2005 Page 3 of 4 . Rassier made a motion to authorize WSB to complete the wetland delineation and noise study as identified in the original contract. The motion was seconded by Rieke and passed unanimously. Proiect Updates: Wick questioned the status of the Hill Street Project. Ekola stated that they are working on shaping the gravel on Hill StreeU3rd Avenue. After the shaping is complete, they will begin doing the driveways. According to Ekola, she projected that these items would be done next week. She also advised the Council that a letter was sent to the contractor making them aware of the substantial completion date of September 1. There is also some landscaping work that needs to be done, Carlbom questioned when the street signs/speed limit signs would be replaced, Ekola stated that they need to complete the ditch work first. MAYOR REPORTS School Committee: Carlbom advised the Council that on August 25, the District 742 Facilities Committee will present their findings to the St. Cloud School District Board of Education. Economic Development Partnership Meetino: At the last Partnership meeting, Carlbom reported that they discussed the new Arctic Cat factory that will be relocating to St. Cloud. This will provide 100+ new jobs for the community. He also stated that the St. Cloud Technical College is going to be doing a large expansion to help fill more mechanic jobs in the area. Rieke questioned whether or not we receive any activity reports from the St. Cloud Partnership to which Carlbom replied that he receives them via email. Rieke would like to make that available to the EDA if possible. Carlbom stated that he would check on that to see if this information can be distributed. COUNCIL REPORTS . SYMANIETZ APO Meetino: Symanietz reported that at the APO Meeting, Mark Kennedy was present and he presented them with a check for $16.8 million for critical projects in the St. Cloud area.

He stated that they are looking for some additional information on the Field Street Project. RASSIER - No Report RIEKE - No Report . ---- Draft August 18,2005 Page 4 of 4 ADMINISTRATOR REPORTS . Waterina Ban: Weyrens advised the Council that Tom Petroski is asking for the Council to make a determination as to whether or not there will be a change in the Watering Ban. At this time, City Staff is not recommending any changes. Rassier stated that if staff is not recommending any changes, then it should remain the same. Carlbom questioned whether or not Weyrens has checked with other cities to see about their policies on watering bans. Weyrens reported that St. Joseph is the most restrictive with respect to the Watering Ban; however she stated that before Waite Park built their new Water Treatment Facility, they had a total ban for the entire summer including shutting down car washes. Weyrens reviewed the current watering ban stating that residents can water between the hours of 7- 10PM on the oddleven system. Those residents with an odd number address would water on the odd days and those with even addresses would water on the even days. Adiourn: Symanietz made a motion to adjourn; seconded by Rieke and passed unanimously. Judy Weyrens Administrator . . ------- . I Attachment: Yes or No I REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Consent 3(c) - Assignment of Lease DATE: September 1, 2005 Administration ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT DEPARTMENT APPROVAL AGENDA ITEM Assignment of Lease - Requested Action: Authorize the Mayor to execute the Lease Agreement between assigning the Community Sign Lease to Cory Commercial LLC. PREVIOUS ACTION The City currently has an agreement with Feneis Enterprise for the Community Sign located at CR 75 and College Avenue. The sign was constructed by Feneis and donated to the City with the agreement that he would have the advertising rights for 15 years. The sign is aging and in need of repair and upgrade. The City does not have a desire to own the sign. While the marquee is a display board, it is cumbersome to . use. The sign uses pixels and creating a sign is like counted cross stitch, which is labor intense. We have had problems in the past with connecting to the sign. Previously the Council agreed to turn the sign over to Cory Ehlert, however, it was discovered that the sign is located in the County ROWand the City does not have the authority to turn the sign over without County approval. Mitch Anderson has indicated that the County agreed to the placement for City purposes and would not agree to the sign being owned by a private party. Cory has indicated that the sign will continue to display community messages and he would be responsible for the placement. I turned the matter over to Sue Dege and while the City does not have an issue turning the sign over to Cory, we do not have the legal right to do so. The agreement in your packet at this time is a transfer of assignment from Feneis to Cory Commercial LLC. This agreement still has the City owning the sign, however, Cory will be responsible for the maintenance and display board. Sue Dege has agreed the Sign Lease and requested that one provision be added, which I have done, This provision states that the City makes no warranty regarding title to the property where the sign is located or the condition of the sign. This agreement accomplishes the goal of both the City and the Lesee. RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION Authorize the Mayor to execute the Sign Lease with the additional provision recommended by the City Attorney. FISCAL IMP ACT . The City will not need to budget for the maintenance and repair of the sign. COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS Cory has indicated that once the Council approves execution of the agreement, the sign will receive a . facelift and will have a better appearance, As stated above he will continue to allow the sign to be used for community advertising such as civic groups and birthdays/anniversaries. After this memo was finished Cory indicated that the name Cory Commercial LLC may change, Therefore, I would still like authorization to execute the agreement pending the new name. . . ----------------~- -----~ -----------~ ----------- .

JOSEPH'S (MN) $3.1 MILLION GO IMPROVEMENT BONDS, SERIES 2005C AFFIRMATION OF Baal RATING AFFECTS $15.13 MILLION OF OUTSTANDING PARITY DEBT, INCLUDING CURRENT THE ISSUE St. Joseph (City of) MN Municipality Minnesota Moody's Rating Issue Rating General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 2005C Baal Sale Amount $3,100,000 Expected Sale Date 09/01/05 . Rating Description General Obligation Unlimited Tax NEW YORK, August 26, 2005 -- Moody's Investors Service has assigned a Baal rating to the City of St. Joseph's (MN) $3.1 million General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 2005C. Concurrently, Moody's has affirmed the Baal rating assigned to the city's outstanding parity debt, affecting $15.13 million, including the current issue. The bonds are secured by the city's general obligation, unlimited tax pledge. Proceeds will be used to help finance improvement projects for the Northland Heights Addison development. The Baal rating reflects the city's limited but growing tax base, healthy operating reserves that provide substantial cushion for contingencies, and a high yet manageable debt burden with rapid principal amortization. LIMITED BUT GROWING TAX BASE; SIGNIFICANT UNIVERSITY POPULATION PRESENCE Moody's anticipates continued tax base expansion due to the city's favorable location five miles west of St. Cloud (rated Aa3) just off Interstate 94. The city's full valuation, currently $231 million, has increased at a rapid annual average rate of 18.7% over the last five years. The 2000 population, 4,681, has increased 42% since 1990. The current estimated 2005 population is 5,438. Moody's expects annexation to continue to provide the impetus for the city's growth in the future, due to limited development potential remaining within the city proper, unincorporated land bordering the city, and ongoing . annexation petitions by existing property owners. The approved commuter rail connecting the region to the Twin Cities is expected to prompt further regional development and growth, The city and township of St. Joseph signed and adopted a joint merger/consolidation agreement in 1998 that will 8/27/2005 Page 2 of4 consolidate the majority of the township with the city in 5, 10, 15, and 20 year increments. Wealth levels are lower than state averages partially due to the large student population (approximately 2,000) attending the College of St. Benedict (rated Baa2) and St. John's University (rated A2). Steams County It (rated AI) unemployment rates, 3.9% in June 2005, tend to approximate that of the state and are well below national levels. HEAL THY OPERATING RESERVES PROVIDE CUSHION FOR CONTINGENCIES The city is expected to maintain healthy reserves due to demonstrated prudent management. Largely due to state funding reductions ($126,000) and increased capital spending, the city ended fiscal 2003 with a $271,000 operating deficit, drawing reserves to $1.2 million, or a still healthy 66.2% of General Fund revenues. The city began to offset state aid reductions by reassessing capital projects, reducing incremental costs, and implementing storm water and utility franchise fees. Fiscal 2004 ended with a $43,000 surplus, increasing the General Fund balance to $1.25 million or 62.9% of General Fund revenues. City officials anticipate essentially balanced operations in fiscal 2005, but Moody's believes the city's historically conservative budgeting practices will continue and lead to favorable variances. Officials expect to continue maintaining at least six months of expenditures as reserves. Beginning in 2006, the city will enter into a Joint Powers Agreement with St. Cloud and other surrounding municipalities that will exercise a 1/2 cent Local Option Sales Tax Option. Estimates of the projected revenue are unavailable at this time, but the city anticipates funding community improvement projects with the proceeds. Core revenues are fairly evenly distributed between property taxes, intergovernmental aid, and special assessments. The special assessments . support a large portion of debt service. HIGH YET MANAGEABLE DEBT BURDEN WITH RAPID PRINCIPAL AMORTIZATION Moody's believes the city's high debt burden, at 6.9% (direct 6.5%), will remain manageable primarily due to continued tax base growth and support from water revenues and special assessments for street improvements. Over 75% of the city's direct debt is funded from special assessments thus mitigating pressure on the general tax levy. The city anticipates bonding for a new water filtration plant in November 2005 (approximately $4 million), that will also be supported through user fees and service fees, Additionally, principal amortization is rapid with 83.8% retired in 10 years, KEY STATISTICS 2000 V,S, Census population: 4,681 2005 population (estimate): 5,438 2004 full value: $231 million Full value per capita: $49,335 1999 Median family income: $44,737 (78.7% of state) . 1999 Per capita income: $12,011 (51.8% of state) 8/27/2005 --------- Page 3 of 4 2000 Median housing value: $93,800 (76,6% of state) .

There are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to, and there shall be credited to, the Debt Service Account: (i) all collections of special assessments herein covenanted to be levied with respect to the Improvements and either initially credited to the Construction Account and not already spent as permitted above and required to pay any principal and interest due on the Bonds or collected subsequent to the completion of the Improvements and payment of the costs thereof; (ii) all accrued interest received upon delivery ofthe Bonds; (iii) all funds paid for the Bonds in excess of the minimum bid; (iv) capitalized interest in the amount of $ (together with interest earnings thereon and subject to such other adjustments as are appropriate to provide sufficient funds to pay interest due on the Bonds on or before , 2006); (v) any collections of all taxes herein or hereafter levied for the payment of the Bonds and interest thereon; (vi) all funds remaining in the Construction Account after completion of the Improvements and payment of the costs thereof, not so transferred to the account of another improvement; (vii) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt Service Account; and (viii) any and all other moneys which are properly . available and are appropriated by the governing body of the City to the Debt Service Account. 13 1800158v2 The Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal and interest and any other . general obligation bonds of the City hereafter issued by the City and made payable from said acconnt as provided by law. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments, except (i) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds were issued and (ii) in addition to the above in an amount not greater than the lesser offive percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or $100,000. To this effect, any proceeds of the Bonds and any sums from time to time held in the Construction Account or Debt Service Account (or any other City account which will be used to pay principal or interest to become due on the bonds payable therefrom) in excess of amounts which under then-applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested without regard to yield shall not be invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by said arbitrage regulations on such investments after taking into account any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion" made available under the federal arbitrage regulations. Money in the Fund shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would cause the Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 1 49(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). 16. Assessments. It is hereby determined that no less than twenty percent of the cost to the City of each Improvement financed hereunder within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.58, Subdivision 1(3), shall be paid by special assessments to be levied against every . assessable lot, piece and parcel of land benefitted by any of the Improvements. The City hereby covenants and agrees that it will let all construction contracts not heretofore let within one year after ordering each Improvement fmanced hereunder unless the resolution ordering the Improvement specifies a different time limit for the letting of construction contracts. The City hereby further covenants and agrees that it will do and perform as soon as they may be done all acts and things necessary for the final and valid levy of such special assessments, and in the event that any such assessment be at any time held invalid with respect to any lot, piece or parcel of land due to any error, defect, or irregularity in any action or proceedings taken or to be taken by the City or the City Councilor any of the City officers or employees, either in the making of the assessments or in the performance of any condition precedent thereto, the City and the City Council will forthwith do all further acts and take all further proceedings as may be required by law to make the assessments a valid and binding lien upon such property. The special assessments have not heretofore been authorized, and accordingly for purposes of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.55, Subdivision 3, the special assessments are hereby authorized. Subject to such adjustments as are required by the conditions in existence at the time the assessments are levied, it is hereby determined that the assessments shall be payable in equal, consecutive, annual installments, with general taxes for the years shown below and with interest on the declining balance of all such assessments at a rate per annum not greater than the maximum permitted by law and not less than the rate per annum set forth opposite the collection years specified below: . 14 1800158v2 . Improvement Collection Designation Amount Levy Years Years Rate Northland Heights Addition Improvements $ % - At the time the assessments are in fact levied the City Council shall, based on the then- current estimated collections of the assessments, make any adjustments in any ad valorem taxes required to be levied in order to assure that the City continues to be in compliance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 1. 17. Tax Levy; Coverage Test. To provide moneys for payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property in the City a direct annual ad valorem tax which shall be spread upon the tax rolls and collected with and as part of other general property taxes in the City for the years and in the amounts as follows: Year of Tax Year of Tax 1m Collection Amount SEE ATTACHED SCHEDULE The tax levies are such that if collected in full they, together with estimated collections of special assessments and other revenues herein pledged for the payment of the Bonds, will . produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds. The tax levies shall be irrepealable so long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the levies in the manner and to the extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 3. 18. Defeasance. When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions oflaw now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required, without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date. 19. Compliance With Reimbursement Bond Regulations. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to establish and provide for the City's compliance with United States . 15 1800 158v2 Treasury Regulations Section 1.150-2 (the "Reimbursement Regulations") applicable to the . "reimbursement proceeds" of the Bonds, being those portions thereof which will be used by the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure which the City paid or will have paid prior to the Closing Date (a "Reimbursement Expenditure"). The City hereby certifies and/or covenants as follows: (a) Not later than 60 days after the date of payment of a Reimbursement Expenditure, the City (or person designated to do so on behalf of the City) has made or will have made a written declaration of the City's official intent (a "Declaration") which effectively (i) states the City's reasonable expectation to reimburse itself for the payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure out of the proceeds of a subsequent borrowing; (ii) gives a general and functional description of the property, project or program to which the Declaration relates and for which the Reimbursement Expenditure is paid, or identifies a specific fund or account of the City and the general functional purpose thereof from which the Reimbursement Expenditure was to be paid (collectively the "Pr~ject"); and (iii) states the maximum principal amount of debt expected to be issued by the City for the purpose of financing the Project; provided, however, that no such Declaration shall necessarily have been made with respect to: (i) "preliminary expenditures" for the Project, defined in the Reimbursement Regulations to include engineering or architectural, surveying and soil testing expenses and similar prefatory costs, which in the aggregate do not exceed 20% of the "issue price" of the Bonds, and (ii) a de minimis amount of Reimbursement Expenditures not in excess of the lesser of$100,000 or 5% of the proceeds of the Bonds. (b) Each Reimbursement Expenditure is a capital expenditure or a cost of issuance of . the Bonds or any of the other types of expenditures described in Section 1.150-2( d)(3) of the Reimbursement Regulations. (c) The "reimbursement allocation" described in the Reimbursement Regulations for each Reimbursement Expenditure shall and will be made forthwith following (but not prior to) the issuance of the Bonds and in all events within the period ending on the date which is the later of three years after payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure or one year after the date on which the Project to which the Reimbursement Expenditure relates is first placed in service. (d) Each such reimbursement allocation will be made in a writing that evidences the City's use of Bond proceeds to reimburse the Reimbursement Expenditure and, if made within 30 days after the Bonds are issued, shall be treated as made on the day the Bonds are issued. Provided, however, that the City may take action contrary to any of the foregoing covenants in this paragraph upon receipt of an opinion of its Bond Counsel for the Bonds stating in effect that such action will not impair the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. 20. General Obligation Pledge. For the prompt and full payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds, as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Bonds and any other bonds payable therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any other funds . 16 1800158v2 -- . of the City which are available for such purpose, and such other funds may be reimbursed with or without interest from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is available therein. 21. Certificate of Registration. A certified copy ofthis resolution is hereby directed to be filed with the County Auditor of Stearns County, Minnesota, together with such other information as the County Auditor shall require, and there shall be obtained from the County Auditor a certificate that the Bonds have been entered in the County Auditor's Bond Register and that the tax levy required by law has been made. 22. Records and Certificates.

Negative Covenant as to Use of Proceeds and Improvements. The City hereby covenants not to use the proceeds of the Bonds or to use the Improvements, or to cause or permit them to be used, or to enter into any deferred payment arrangements for the cost of the Improvements, in such a manner as to cause the Bonds to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code. . 24. Tax-Exempt Status of the Bonds: Rebate: Elections. The City shall comply with requirements necessary under the Code to establish and maintain the exclusion from gross income under Section 103 of the Code of the interest on the Bonds, including without limitation (i) requirements relating to temporary periods for investments, (ii) limitations on amounts invested at a yield greater than the yield on the Bonds, and (iii) the rebate of excess investment earnings to the United States. The City expects to satisfy the 18-month expenditure exemption for gross proceeds of the Bonds as provided in Section 1. 148-7( d)(1) ofthe Regulations. If any elections are available now or hereafter with respect to arbitrage or rebate matters relating to the Bonds, the Mayor, the Clerk or either one of them, are hereby authorized and directed to make such elections as to arbitrage and rebate matters relating to the Bonds as they deem necessary, appropriate or desirable in connection with the Bonds, and all such elections shall be, and shall be deemed and treated as, elections of the City. 25.

This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, furniture and office equipment, infrastructure, and construction in I progress. Most of the increase in the govenunental activities is attributable to street construction and infrastructure improvements.

JOSEPH .' Stearns County, Minnesota NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS I December 31, 2004 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES I B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements I The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the City. For the most I part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these Statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges I for support, The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly I identifiable with a specific function or segment. Interest on general long-term debt is considered an indirect expense and is reported separately on the Statement of Activities. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly I benefit from goods, services or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. .1 Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate I columns in the fund financial statements. C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources I measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund fmancial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a I liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. I Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when I they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are I recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. I 31 ., I I I. CITY OF ST. JOSEPH Stearns County, Minnesota I NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31,2004 I NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES I c. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued) I As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government- wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the government's sanitary sewer function and various other functions ofthe government. I Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers, or applicants for goods, I services or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes. I Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and I. delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the Sanitary Sewer Enterprise Fund, Water Enterprise Fund and other proprietary funds are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation I on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. I When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the government's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. D. Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets or Equity I 1. Deposits and Investments I The government's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. I Minnesota Statutes authorizes the City to invest in obligations of the U.S, Treasury, agencies and instrumentalities, shares of investment companies whose only investments are in the aforementioned securities, obligations of the State of Minnesota or its municipalities, I bankers' acceptances, future contracts, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements and commercial paper of the highest quality with a maturity of no longer than 270 days and in the Minnesota Municipal Investment Pool. I Investments for the government are reported at fair value. I. 33 I I CITY OF ST. JOSEPH .'

Compensated Absences I The City compensates employees who leave City service in good standing for all earned, I unused vacation, Employees can accrue up to 200 hours of vacation depending on years of service. At the employees' anniversary date, the maximum amount of carryover is 80 hours. In addition, employees are compensated for unused sick leave (up to a maximum of 720 I hours) at various rates depending on the employee type, provided the City's notice of termination policy has been complied with. 6. Long-Term Obligations I In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the I applicable governmental activities, business-type activities or proprietary fund type Statement of Net Assets.

Changes in Accounting Principles I For the year ended December 31, 2004, the City has implemented GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements - and Management's Discussion and Analysis -for State Local I Governments. GASB Statement No. 34 creates new basic financial statements for reporting on the City's financial activities. The financial statements now include government-wide financial statements prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, and fund financial I statements which present information for individual major funds rather than by hmd type which had been the mode of presentation in previously issued financial statements. Nonmajor funds are presented in total in one column in the fund financial statements. I The implementation of GASB Statement No. 34 caused the opening fund balance at December 31, 2003 to be restated in terms of "net assets" as follows. I.

The City pays an annual premium to the League for its insurance coverage. The League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust is self- sustaining through commercial companies for excess claims. The City is covered through the pool I for any claims incurred but unreported, but retains risk for the deductible portion of its insurance policies. The amount of these deductibles is considered immaterial to the financial statements. I There were no significant reductions in insurance from the previous year or settlements in excess ofinsurance coverage for any of the past three fiscal years. The City's workers' compensation insurance policy is retrospectively rated. With this type of I policy, final premiums are determined after loss experience is known. The amount of premium adjustment for 2004 is estimated to be immaterial based on workers' compensation rates and salaries for the year. I I. 49 I I CITY OF ST.

I - 9- ------------ I Book-Entry System .- The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Obligations. Upon issuance of the Obligations, one fully registered Obligation will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, for each maturity of the Obligations as set forth on the cover page hereof, I each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity. So long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Obligations, references herein to the holders of the Obligations or registered owners of the Obligations shall mean Cede & Co. and shall not mean the Beneficial Owners of the Obligations. I DTC is a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17 A of the Securities Exchange I Act of 1934, as amended. DTC was created to hold securities of its participants (the "DTC Participants") and to facilitate the clearance and I settlement of securities transactions among DTC Participants in such securities through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of the DTC Participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. DTC Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations, some of whom (and/or their representatives) own DTC. Access to I the DTC system is also available to others such as banks, brokers, dealers, and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with DTC Participants, either directly or indirectly (the "Indirect Participants"). I The Interest of each of the Beneficial Owners of the Obligations will be recorded through the records of a DTC Participant or Indirect Participant. Each DTC Participant will receive a credit balance on the records of DTC. Individual purchases will be made in the denomination of $5,000 or any whole multiple thereof. Beneficial I owners of Obligations will receive a written confirmation of their purchases providing details of the Obligations acquired. Beneficial owners of Obligations will not receive certificates representing their ownership interest in the Obligations, except as specifically provided below. .1 Transfers of beneficial ownership interest in the Obligations will be accomplished by book entries made by DTC and, in turn, by the DTC Participants who act on behalf of the Indirect Participants and the Beneficial Owners of Obligations. For every transfer and exchange of beneficial ownership of Obligations, the beneficial owner may I be charged a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. Payments of principal and interest on the Bonds will be made to DTC or its nominee, Cede & Co., as registered I owner of the Bonds. Upon receipt of moneys, DTC's current practice is to immediately credit the accounts of the DTC Participants in accordance with their respective holdings shown on the records of DTC. Payments by DTC Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and I customary practices such as those which are now the case for municipal securities held in bearer form or registered in "street name" for the accounts of customers and will be the responsibility of such DTC Participants or Indirect Participants and not the responsibility of DTC or the Issuer, subject to any statutory and regulatory I requirements as may be in effect from time to time. The Depository Trust Company (the "DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. Upon issuance of the Bonds, one fully registered Bond will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as I nominee for DTC, for each maturity of the Bonds as set forth on the cover page hereof, each in the aggregate principal amount of such maturity. So long as Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Bonds, references herein to the Owners of the Bonds shall mean Cede & Co. and shall not mean the Beneficial Owners of the I Bonds.

LEGALITY Legal matters incident to the authorization and issuance of the Bonds and Certificates are subject to the I approving opinion of Bond Counsel, as to validity and tax exemption. A copy of such opinion will be available at the time of the delivery of the Bonds and Certificates. See Appendix A -Proposed Form of Legal Opinion. I Bond Counsel has not participated in the preparation of the Official Statement and is not passing upon its accuracy, completeness or sufficiency. Bond Counsel has not examined, nor attempted to examine, or verifY, ,I any of the financial or statistical statements or data contained in this Official Statement, and will express no opinion with respect thereto. FINANCIAL ADVISOR I The Issuer has retained Northland Securities, Inc. as financial advisor (the "Financial Advisor") in connection I with the issuance of the Bonds and Certificates. In preparing the Official Statement, the Financial Advisor has relied upon governmental officials, and other sources that have access to relevant data to provide accurate information for the Official Statement, and the Financial Advisor has not been engaged, nor has it undertaken, to independently verifY the accuracy of such information. The Financial Advisor is not a public accounting firm I and has not been engaged by the Issuer to compile, review, examine or audit any information in the Official Statement in accordance with accounting standards. Pursuant to Rule G-23 of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, the Issuer reserves the right to invite the Financial Advisor to participate in the underwriting I of the Bonds and Certificates. If any entity or company associated with the Financial Advisor submits a competitive bid, it shall fax said bid to the Issuer (Fax No. 320-363-0342) at least fifteen (15) minutes prior to the deadline otherwise established for the receipt of such a bid. ., - 12- I I I. TAX EXEMPTION General In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under federal and Minnesota laws, regulations, rulings and decisions in effect I on the date of issuance of the Bonds, interest on the Bonds is not includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes or in taxable net income of individuals, estates and trusts for Minnesota income tax purposes. I Interest on the Bonds is includable in taxable income of corporations and financial institutions for purposes of the Minnesota franchise tax. Certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), however, impose continuing requirements that must be met after the issuance of the Bonds in order for interest thereon to be and remain not includable in federal gross income and in Minnesota taxable net income. I Noncompliance with such requirements by the County may cause the interest on the Bonds to be includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation and in taxable net income for purposes of Minnesota income taxation, retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds, irrespective in some cases of the date on which such noncompliance is ascertained. No provision has been made for redemption of or for an increase in the I interest rate on the Bonds in the event that interest on the Bonds becomes includable in federal gross income or Minnesota taxable income. I Interest on the Bonds is not an item of tax preference includable in alternative minimum taxable income for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax applicable to all taxpayers or the Minnesota alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, estates and trusts, but is includable in adjusted current earnings in determining the federal alternative minimum taxable income of corporations for purposes of the federal I alternative minimum tax. Interest on the Bonds may be includable in the income of a foreign corporation for purposes of the branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code and is includable in the net investment income of foreign insurance companies for purposes of Section 842(b) of the Code. In the case of an insurance I company subject to the tax imposed by Section 831 of the Code, the amount which otherwise would be taken into account as losses incurred under Section 832(b)(5) of the Code must be reduced by an amount equal to fifteen percent of the interest on the Bonds that is received or accrued during the taxable year. Section 86 of the Code requires recipients of certain Social Security and railroad retirement benefits to take into account, in I. determining the taxability of such benefits, receipts or accruals of interest on the Bonds. Passive Investment Income of S Corporations I Passive investment income, including interest on the Bonds, may be subject to federal income taxation under Section 1375 of the Code for a Subchapter S corporation that has Subchapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year if greater than twenty-five percent of the gross receipts of such Subchapter S corporation is I passive investment income. Section 265 of the Code denies a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the Bonds or, in the case of a financial institution, that portion of the holder's interest expense allocated to interest on the Bonds, except with respect to certain financial institutions (within I the meaning of Section 265(b) of the Code). The above is not a comprehensive list of all federal tax consequences which may arise from the receipt of I interest on the Bonds. The receipt of interest on the Bonds may otherwise affect the federal or State of Minnesota income tax liability of the recipient based on the particular taxes to which the recipient is subject and the particular tax status of other items or deductions. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any such consequences. All prospective purchasers of the Bonds are advised to consult their own tax advisors as to the tax I consequences of, or tax considerations for, purchasing or holding the Bonds. Qualified Tax-Exempt Obligations I The Issuer will designate the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b )(3) of the Code relating to the ability of financial institutions to deduct from income for federal income tax purposes, interest expense that is allocable to carrying and acquiring tax-exempt obligations. "Qualified tax-exempt I obligations" are treated as acquired by a financial institution before August 8, 1986. Interest allocable to such obligations remains subject to the 20% disallowance under prior law. I. - 13- I I CITY OF ST.

Market Value According to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 273, all real property subject to taxation is to be appraised at maximum intervals of four years. All real property becoming taxable in any year is listed at its estimated market I value on January 2 of that year. The estimated market value is the County Assessor's appraisal of the worth of the property. Indicated Market Value I The Minnesota Department of Revenue conducts the Real Estate Sales Assessment Ratio Study to accomplish I equalization of property valuation in the State of Minnesota and to determine the probable selling price of a property. The study is a three-year average of sale prices as related to the latest assessor's estimated market value. The indicated market value is determined by dividing the estimated market value by the Sales Assessment Ratio for the city as determined by the Department of Revenue. I Tax Cycle Minnesota local government ad valorem property taxes are extended and collected by the various counties I within the state. The process begins in the fall of every year with the certification, to the county auditor, of all local taxing districts' property tax levies. Local tax rates are calculated by dividing each taxing district's levy by its net tax capacity. One percentage point of local tax rate represents one dollar of tax per $100 net tax capacity. I A list of taxes due is then prepared by the county auditor and turned over to the county treasurer on or before the first Monday in January. The county treasurer is responsible for collecting all property taxes within the county. Real estate tax statements I are to be mailed out no later than March 31 and personal property tax statements no later than July 4. The due dates for payment of real property taxes are one-half on or before May 15 and one-half on or before October 15. Personal property taxes become due one-half on or before August 31 and one-half on or before November 15. Following each settlement (January 25, June 19, and December I of each year), the county treasurer must el redistribute property tax revenues to the local taxing districts in proportion to their tax capacity ratios. Delinquent property taxes are penalized at various rates depending on the type of property and the length of I delinquency. Tax Credits Prior to 1990, taxes on homestead residential and agricultural property were reduced by a direct subsidy to the I taxpayer. Beginning in 1990, the homestead credit has been eliminated. The state subsidy is now accomplished through lower class rates to homesteaded classifications of property and increased state aids paid directly to I local taxing districts. This new system is intended to have generally the same impact as the former homestead credit system. Tax Levies for General Obligation Bonds I (Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61) The governing body of any municipality issuing general obligations shall, prior to delivery of the obligations, levy by resolution a direct general ad valorem tax upon all taxable property in the municipality to be spread I upon the tax rolls for each year of the term of the obligations. The tax levies for all years shall be specified and such that if collected in full they, together with estimated collections of special assessments and other revenues pledged for the payment of said obligations, will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to I meet when due the principal and interest payments on the obligations. Such resolution shall irrevocably appropriate the taxes so levied and any special assessments or other revenues so pledged to the municipality's debt service fund or a special debt service fund or account created for the payment of one or more issues of obligations. I .. - 20- I -------- I I. The governing body may, at its discretion, at any time after the obligation have been authorized, adopt a resolution levying only a portion of such taxes, to be filed, assessed, extended, collected and remitted as hereinafter provided, and the amount or amounts therein levied shall be credited against the tax required to be levied prior to delivery ofthe obligations. I The recording officer of the municipality shall file in the office of the county auditor of each county in which any part of the municipality is located a certified copy of the resolution, together with full information regarding I the obligations for which the tax is levied. No further action by the municipality is required to authorize the extension, assessment and collection of the tax, but the municipality's liability on the obligations is not limited thereto and its governing body shall levy and cause to be extended, assessed and collected any additional taxes found necessary for full payment of the principal and interest. The auditor shall annually assess and extend upon I the tax rolls the amount specified for such year in the resolution, unless the amount has been reduced as authorized below or, if the municipality is located in more than one county, the portion thereof that bears the same ratio to the whole amount as the tax capacity value of taxable property in that part of the municipality I located in his county bears to the tax capacity value of all taxable property in the municipality. Tax levies so made and filed shall be irrevocable, except that if the governing body in any year makes an irrevocable appropriation to the debt service fund of moneys actually on hand or if there is on hand any excess I amount in the debt service fund, the recording officer may certifY to the county auditor the fact and amount thereof and the auditor shall reduce by the amount so certified the amount otherwise to be included in the rolls next thereafter prepared. I All such taxes shall be collected and remitted to the municipality by the county treasurer as other taxes are collected and remitted, and shall be used only for payment of the obligations on account of that levied or to repay advances from other funds used for such payments, except that any surplus remaining in the debt service I fund when the obligations and interest thereon are paid may be appropriated to any other general purpose by the municipality . I. Class Rate The factors (class rates) for converting estimated market value to net tax capacity represent a basic element of the State's property tax relief system and are therefore subject to annual revisions by the State Legislature.

We have examined the law and such certified proceedings and other documents as we deem I necessary to render this opinion. We have not been engaged or undertaken to review the accuracy, completeness or I sufficiency of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the Bonds, and we express no opinion relating thereto. As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied upon the certified I proceedings and other certifications of public officials furnished to us without undertaking.to verifY the same by independent investigation. I Based upon such examinations, and assuming the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents, and the I accuracy of the statements of fact contained in such documents, and based upon present Minnesota and federal laws (which excludes any pending legislation which may have a retroactive effect on or before the date hereof), regulations, rulings and decisions, it is our I opinion that: (1) The proceedings show lawful authority for the issuance of the Bonds according to I their terms under the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota now in force. e I 1798012vl MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE.

PROPOSED FORM OF LEGAL OPINION I (2) The Bonds are valid and binding general obligations ofthe Issuer and all of the I taxable property within the Issuer's jurisdiction is subject to the levy of an ad valorem tax to pay the same without limitation as to rate or amount; provided that the enforceability (but not the validity) ofthe Bonds and the pledge of taxes for the payment of the principal and interest I thereon is subject to the exercise of judicial discretion in accordance with general principles of equity, to the constitutional powers of the United States of America and to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights I heretofore or hereafter enacted. (3) At the time of the issuance and delivery of the Bonds to the original purchaser, the I interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for United States income tax purposes and is excluded, to the same extent, from both gross income and taxable net income for State of Minnesota income tax purposes (other than Minnesota franchise taxes measured by income and I imposed on corporations and financial institutions), and is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations or the Minnesota alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, estates or trusts; it should be noted, however, that for the purpose of computing the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on I corporations, such interest is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings. The opinions set forth in the preceding sentence are subject to the condition that the Issuer comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that must be satisfied el subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in order that interest thereon be, or continue to be, excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and from both gross income and taxable net income for State of Minnesota income tax purposes. Failure to comply with certain I of such requirements may cause the inclusion of interest on the Bonds in gross income and taxable net income retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. We express no opinion regarding other state or federal tax consequences caused by the I receipt or accrual of interest on the Bonds or arising with respect to ownership of the Bonds.

JOSEPH, MINNESOTA .1 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS December 31, 2004 I As management of the City of St. Joseph, we offer readers of the City of St. Joseph's financial I statements this nanative overview and analysis of the financial activities ofthe City ofSt. Joseph for the fiscal year ended December 31,2004. Financial Hiehliehts I + The assets of the City of St. Joseph exceeded its liabilities at the close ofthe most recent fiscal year by $22,994,779. Of this amount, $4,357,843 may be used to meet government's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. I + The government's total net assets increased by $1,329,519. + As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City ofSt. Joseph's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $4,847,434 a decrease of$I,568,157. Of this I total amount, $2,195,550 is available or designated for spending at the govemment's discretion (unreserved fund balance). + At the end of the current fiscal year, unreserved undesignated fund balance for the general fund was $766,100 or 42% percent of total general fund expenditures. I + The City ofSt. Joseph's total debt decreased by $1,838,938 during the current fiscal year. Overview of the Financial Statements I This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City of St. Joseph's basic financial statements. The City ofSt. Joseph's basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide fmancial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in el addition to the basic financial statements themselves. Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are I designed to provide readers with a broader overview of the City ofSt. Joseph's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City of St. Joseph's assets and I liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City of St. Joseph's is improving or deteriorating. I The statement of activities presents information showing how the government's net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets are reported as soon as the I underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and eamed but unused vacation leave). I I I 5 e. I -------- I I. CITY OF ST. JOSEPH, MINNESOTA MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS I December 31, 2004 I The basic govemmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 18-26 ofthis report. Proprietary funds. The City ofSt. Joseph maintains proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are I used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City of St. Joseph uses enterprise funds to account for its water, sanitary sewer, refuse and stOlID water. I Proprietary funds provide the same type ofinfonnation as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the water, wastewater, refuse and storm water, all of which are considered to be I major funds of the City ofSt. Joseph. The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 27-29 of this report. I Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 30-52 of this report. I Other information. The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds and proprietary funds can be found on pages 54-68 of this report. Ie Comparative data. Because tlus is the first year of presenting the City's financial statements under the new standard, comparison ofthe prior year is not possible. In subsequent years, this section will discuss and analyze significant differences. I Government- Wide Financial Analvsis As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a usenIl indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the City of St. Joseph, assets exceeded liabilities by $22,994,779 at the I close of the most recent fiscal year. By far the largest portion of the City of St. Joseph's net assets reflects its investment in capital I assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, and equipment), less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City of Sf. Joseph uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City of St. Joseph's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be I noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

The City ofSt. Joseph's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business type activities as of December 31, 2004, amounts to $24,814,029 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, fumiture and office equipment, infrastructure, and construction in I progress. Most of the increase in the governmental activities is attributable to street construction and infrastructure improvements. The increase in business type activities occurred due to the extension of water and sewer utilities in the Orderly Annexation Area. I The City has a significant level of outstanding commitments for capital expenditures at year end. These commitments are detailed on page 52 in the notes to the financial statements.

The project location is shown in Figure 1. Construction is proposed for the summer of 2006. Special assessments are proposed reconstruction of street, alley, curb I and gutter, sanitary sewer and water main.

I {' Feasibility Report A-ST JOE 0603 City of St. Joseph Page 1 I I .. 3.0 Background and Existing Conditions 3.1 Capital Improvement Program The proposed reconstruction is part of the St. Joseph Capital Improvement I program scheduled for 2006 construction. Figure No. 1 shows the area of the proposed improvements. I 3.2 Streets Most of the above mentioned streets were constructed around 1960 and have served their useful life. 1st Avenue SE was milled and overlaid in 1988. I Newly reconstructed streets should provide a 20 plus year design life, depending on the amount of traffic. These streets have had an approximate 30-40year life and need to be reconstructed. The typical street widths are I shown on Figure 2. 3.3 Alleys I As part of this Feasibility Study, we have also investigated the probable costs to pave the alleys in this project area. The alleys currently have gravel surfaces with the exception of alley 1, and the North leg of alley 6, alley 9 and alley 10 (see Figure 1). These two areas currently have paved surfaces, I but the existing pavement is in poor condition. Existing alley widths range from 8-feet to IS-feet. I 3.4 Storm Sewer Most of the storm sewer was installed when the roads were originally constructed around 1960 (see Figure 3). . 3.5 Sanitary Sewer The existing sanitary sewer system was installed around 1960. The sanitary I sewer is vitrified clay pipe (VCP). The existing sanitary sewer was televised in October 2000. The televising report and video, as well as information provided by City maintenance staff, was evaluated as part of this Feasibility Study. Portions of the existing sanitary in the project area is in poor condition I due to offset joints, cracks and roots protruding in the pipe. The report provides the costs and proposed assessments to replace all sanitary sewer in the project area. The proposed sanitary sewer improvements are shown on I Figure 4. We have also evaluated an altemate for sanitary sewer replacement. It would I include replacement of sanitary sewer on 1 st Avenue SE from Baker Street to the alley between Able Street and East Minnesota Street because of roots in the line (i.e. roots at joints). On 2nd Avenue SE from Baker Street East to East Minnesota Street we would replace the sanitary sewer because of its I proximity to the water main (i.e. in order to remove and replace the water main we would disturb the existing sanitary sewer). There will also be spot repairs on 3rd A venue because of cracked pipes and pipe separations. On the I alley north of Able Street, between 1 st Avenue SE and 2n Avenue SE, we would repair the mainline and services with root intrusion. The sanitary sewer would most likely be replaced if the alley is reconstructed. However, I if the alley is not scheduled for reconstruction, lining the existing sanitary sewer pipe and services with root intrusion could be considered. The same .. Feasibility Report A-ST JOE 0603 City of St. Joseph Page 2 I I .. procedure would be done to the alley north of Minnesota Street between 151 Avenue NE and 2nd Avenue NE (See Figure 8). 3.6 Water Main I The water main was constructed around 1950. Most of the old water main consists of cast iron pipe, which tends to be brittle. Since the mid-1970's, all I water main in St. Joseph has been constructed of ductile iron pipe, which is more flexible and durable. We recommend all old water main be replaced with new ductile iron pipe. I In addition to being constructed of cast iron, the old pipe was in service long before the City had an iron removal plant. The inside of the pipe is coated with iron deposits, which affects its hydraulic capacity and the quality of the I drinking water. When St. Joseph begins to chlorination of the water supply in 2006, the older pipes will shed iron deposits for a year or two as the pipes clean themselves up. Pipe installed after the 1971 water treatment plant was I constructed will not have this problem. Replacing this water main will make a significant difference in the water quality. The proposed water main improvements are shown on Figure 5. I 3.7 Sanitary Sewer Forcemain Relocation The sanitary sewer forcemain from the East Baker Street lift station was constructed in 1972. The forcemain discharges into a manhole located north I of Able Street E. Backups have occurred in homes near the discharge manhole due the proximity and elevation of the sanitary services to the manhole. Therefore, relocation of the forcemain discharge is recommended . to reduce the potential for backups. The proposed improvement area is shown on Figure 7. 4.0 Proposed Improvements I The proposed street reconstruction will consist of completely removing the existing street and replacing with new materials. All streets will be built to a 9-ton pavement section. I 4.1 1 st Avenue SE Baker Street E to East Minnesota Street I On this street, we propose to remove and replace existing curb and gutter. The proposed street section will consist of 2 inches bituminous wear, 2 I inches bituminous base, and 8 inches of Class 5 aggregate base. The existing striping for crosswalks and stop bars will be repainted. This section of street has state-aid designation and is eligible for state-aid I funding. This designation for state-aid mileage may be could be redesignated to future streets (i.e. future bypasslcorridor roads). Therefore, we are not proposing to use state-aid funds for this project. I The existing storm sewer manholes, catch basins, and mainline will be removed and replaced. We will replace the mainline pipe with 12-inch ~ reinforced concrete pipe (RCP). We also propose to remove the existing 8-inch sanitary sewer pipe and replace it. The existing services will also need to be removed and replaced. Feasibility Report A-ST JOE 0603 City of St. Joseph Page 3 I I. .. Root intrusion is evident at most pipe joints from Baker Street E. to the alley north of Able Street E. The existing 6-inch water main will be removed and replaced. The existing I services and hydrants will also be removed and replaced. 4.2 1 st Avenue NE I East Minnesota Street to Ash Street E On this street, we propose to remove and replace existing curb with curb and I gutter. In some areas there is not an existing curb. We propose to add curb and gutter to those areas. The proposed street section will consist of 2 inches bituminous wear, 2 inches bituminous base, and 8 inches of Class 5 I aggregate base. The existing striping for crosswalks and stop bars will be repainted. The existing storm sewer manholes, catch basins, and mainline will be I removed and replaced. We will replace the mainline pipe with 18-inch reinforced concrete pipe (RCP). I We also propose to remove the existing 8-inch sanitary sewer pipe and replace it. The existing services will also need to be removed and replaced. The existing 12-inch water main and services were replaced in the 1993 and I will be protected. Ash Street E. to County Road 75 .

Allev Construction $953,842 I Sanitarv Sewer $495,758 Water Main $240,993 Storm Sewer $115,382 . Subtotal $1,805,975 Contim!encv $180,598 Enl!ineerinl! $361,195 I Lel!al.

For alley reconstruction (as part of an improvement project), City policy is to assess 80.percent to the property owners and cover I 20-percent with City Funds. The City will pay 100 percent of the storm sewer costs and sanitary sewer forcemain relocation. For sanitary sewer repairs (sanitary sewer alternate), City policy is to pay for repairs with City ~ funds. Using these numbers, the cost will be shared as follows. Feasibility Report A-ST JOE 0603 City of St. Joseph Page 9 I --- -- -- --- ~ -- I ~. Table 3 Proposed Assessments Residential Street $54.00/ Un Ft I Reconstructed Alley $16.84/ Un Ft Constructed Allev $17.20/ Un Ft I New Curb and Gutter $12.47/Lin Ft ReDlaced Curb and Gutter $7.48/ Un Ft Sanitary Sewer $2,586.56/ Unit I Water Main $2,095.59/ Unit The City's policy is to assess a property owner for 100 percent of the front I footage of interior lots. For those on a corner lot, it is policy to assess 100 percent of the short side and 50 percent of the long side. For alleys, the property owner will also be assessed for 100 percent of the abutting footage. I Table 3 shows the proposed assessment rates. Sanitary sewer and water main are assessed on a unit basis. Each buildable lot is considered a unit. I No assessment for sanitary sewer is proposed if the sanitary sewer alternate (i.e. repair only damaged/root intrusion sections) is chosen. 7.1 Financing Options I The projected revenue needed to fmance the project follows. Special assessments would be levied on abutting property for street, alley, sanitary sewer, and water main construction. Enterprise funds from the City's sewer . and water accounts could be used to offset the 40 percent City cost participation in sanitary sewer and water main replacement. The City will hav~ to determine where the funds will come from for the 40 percent City I cost participation in street reconstruction, and the 20 percent City cost of alley reconstruction. Storm sewer funds could be used for storm sewer replacement. Sanitary sewer forcemain funds could be funded using sanitary I sewer trunk funds or enterprise funds.

FISCAL IMP ACT The fees will be reimbursed from the Cable provider COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS See attached Memo - CABLE FRANCHISE MEMORANDUM............... e As I had indicated in an emaillast week, the area City Administrators met with the St. Cloud City Attorney and an attorney who specializes in cable franchise administration (Brian Grogan). As you are aware Charter is in the process of purchasing Seren Innovations. Since this transaction has the potential of long term impacts on the residents it is important to make sure the transfer address the needs of the communities. The most efficient manner to complete this task is jointly. The City of St. Cloud has worked with Brian Grogan in the past as he specializes in Cable Franchise/Regulations, a field requiring specialization. Brian has reviewed the initial document and believes the application is incomplete and has recommended sending a letter stating the same. When reviewing the Franchise he indicated that three areas should be reviewed: 1. Legal 2. Technical 3. Financial (ability to purchase and maintain without pressure to the subscribers) The financial area is where Brian believes the application is incomplete as the pro forma projections are missing. Brian is still reviewing the documents and there could be additional areas of incompleteness. The franchise transfer is regulated with stringent deadlines. The first deadline is September 4. If the application is incomplete notification must be sent no later than September 4,2005. On behalf of the area Cities, all the Administrators authorized Brian to send a letter to Charter informing them that the application is incomplete. I have attached a summary that Brian Grogan prepared regarding the process and time lines. The . authority the Cities have in not approving the franchise is in the middle of the page under "Applicable State Laws" number 2. The absence of competition is a major concern for all Cities except St. Joseph. Regardless of what happens with the transfer, St. Joseph has US Cable. St. Joseph's participation will be at a different level then the other area Cities. St. Joseph still has an interest in assuring quality cable. St. Joseph's financial contribution will be lower as we are not as concerned with the possible monopoly of service. The fees incurred for review are reimbursable from Charter. The exception to this would be if their application were denied. Since our meeting, Brian Grogan has informed the Area Cities that he cannot represent the Cities on this issue as his law firm represents Xcel Engery from time to time. Jan Peterson from St. Cloud has retained another attorney who has the specialization in cable. He is from Washington DC and has agreed to charge the same rate as Brian Grogan ($ 250.00 / hour). The Council will need to authorize the execution of a Joint Powers Agreement for the cost sharing of the legal defense. During the transfer process the Cities have a right to place conditions on the transfer. Some of the conditions may include: Reimbursement for all costs; commitment for rates; System modifications; assuring change over will not negatively impact the consumer; . -- - ------------- . CABLE SYSTEM AND FRANCHISE TRANSFER Your City has received the Federal Communications Commission Form 394 - Application for Franchise Authority Consent to Assignment or Transfer of Control of Cable Television Franchise ("Form 394") from Seren Innovations, Inc. ("Seren"). This Form 394 is Seren's application for the transfer of the City's cable franchise to Charter Communications ("Charter"). Steps necessary to complete the transfer review 1. Review Seren's initial Form 394 to determine if the application is complete. 2. Review the legal, technical, and financial qualifications of Charter. 3. Review the franchise regarding unresolved issues of noncompliance. 4. Prepare a detailed report including recommendations to approve or deny the transfer request. Any franchise noncompliance issues should be raised and addressed in this report. 5. If the recommendation is to approve the request, a Resolution and Acceptance Agreement are prepared. If denial is recommended alternative documents will be prepared. 6. Resolution and Acceptance Agreement are considered by each City Council and, if adopted, sent to Charter for execution. Applicable Federal Law . Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984S613(d) [533(d)] Regulation of ownership by States or franchising authorities Any State or franchising authority may not prohibit the ownership or control of a cable system by any person because of such person's ownership or control of any other media of mass communications or other media interests. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent any State or franchising authority from prohibiting the ownership or control of a cable system in a jurisdiction by any person (1) because of such person's ownership or control of any other cable system in such jurisdiction, or (2) in circumstances in which the State or franchising authority determines that the acquisition of such a cable system may eliminate or reduce competition in the delivery of cable service in such jurisdiction. How will the transfer affect customers? . New services offered? . Programming line-up changes? . Change in customer service representatives and service centers? . Billing system changes? . Cost increases/decreases? . New em ail addresses? . System modifications? e . Impact on PEG operations? facility; and personnel. 801108vl REGULATORY ORDINANCE TRANSFER PROVISION FOR e ST. CLOUD, SARTELL, WAITE PARK SECTION 1.8. FRANCHISE NON-TRANSFERABLE. a. Grantee shall not voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, sell, assign, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, in whole or in part, the Franchise and/or Cable System without the prior written consent of the Grantor and then only upon such reasonable terms and conditions as may be allowed under Applicable Laws. Any attempt to sell, assign, transfer, lease, sublet or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Franchise and/or Cable System or Grantee's rights therein without the prior written consent of the Grantor shall be null and void and shall be grounds for termination of the Franchise pursuant to Section 1.30 hereof and the applicable provisions of any Franchise Agreement. b. The Grantor's approval under this Section shall be required consistent with Minnesota Statutes Section 238.083. c. In the case of any sale or transfer of ownership of any Franchise and/or Cable System, the City shall have 120 days to act upon any request for approval of such sale or transfer that contains or is accompanied by such information as is required in this Ordinance and Applicable Laws and such other reasonable information as the City may request. If the City fails to render a final decision on the request within 120 days from receipt by the City of all required information, . such request shall be deemed granted unless the requesting party and the City agree to an extension of time. d. Grantee shall notify Grantor in writing of any foreclosure or any other judicial sale of all or a substantial part of the property and assets comprising the Cable System of the Grantee or upon the termination of any lease or interest covering all or a substantial part of said property and assets. Such notification shall be considered by Grantor as notice that a change in control or ownership of the Franchise has taken place and the provisions under this Section governing the consent of Grantor to such change in control or ownership shall apply. e. For the purpose of determining whether it shall consent to such change, transfer or acquisition of control, Grantor may inquire into the qualifications of the prospective transferee or controlling party, and Grantee shall assist Grantor in any such inquiry. In seeking Grantor's consent to any change of ownership or control, Grantee shall have the responsibility of insuring that the transferee completes an application in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Grantor, which application shall include the information required under this Ordinance and Applicable Laws of this Ordinance. An application shall be submitted to Grantor not less than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the date of transfer. City shall notify the Grantee in accordance with Applicable Laws of any question concerning the accuracy of the information provided, or such information shall be deemed accepted. The transferee shall be required to establish to the satisfaction of the City that it possesses the legal, technical and financial qualifications to operate and maintain the System and comply with all Franchise requirements e for the remainder of the term of the Franchise. If, after considering the legal, financial and 801108vl e technical qualities of the transferee and determining that they are satisfactory, the Grantor finds that such transfer is acceptable, the Grantor shall permit such transfer and assignment of the rights and obligations of such Franchise as may be in the public interest. The consent of the Grantor to such transfer shall not be unreasonably withheld. f. The granting of a security interest or mortgage in all or part of the Franchise or Cable System by a Grantee shall not require the consent of the Grantor. Any financial institution having a security interest in any and all of the property and assets of Grantee as security for any loan made to Grantee for the construction and/or operation of the Cable System intend to have the right to notify the Grantor that it or its designee satisfactory to the Grantor shall take control of and operate the Cable Television System, in the event of a default in the payment or performance of the debts, liabilities or obligations of Grantee to such financial institution. Further, said financial institution shall also submit a plan for such operation of the System within thirty (30) days of assuming such control that will insure continued service and compliance with all Franchise requirements during the term the financial institution or its designee exercises control over the System. The financial institution or its designee shall not exercise control over the System for a period exceeding one (1) year unless extended by the Grantor in its reasonable discretion and during said period of time it shall have the right to petition the Grantor to transfer the Franchise to another Grantee. g. In addition to the aforementioned requirements in this Section 1.8, the City and Grantee shall, at all times, comply with applicable requirements of Minnesota Statutes Section 238.083 . regarding the sale or transfer of a Franchise. SECTION 1.9. CITY'S RIGHT TO PURCHASE SYSTEM. The City shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Cable System in the event the Grantee receives a bona fide offer to purchase the Cable System from any Person. Bona fide offer as used in this Section means a written offer which has been accepted by Grantee, subject to the City's rights under this Ordinance and any Franchise Agreement. The price to be paid by the City shall be the amount provided for in the bona fide offer, including the same terms and conditions as the bona fide offer. The City shall notify Grantee of its decision to purchase within forty-five (45) days of the City's receipt from Grantee of a copy of the written bona fide offer and such other relevant and pertinent information as the City shall deem reasonably appropriate. e 801108vl FRANCHISE TRANSFER REQUIREMENTS e mDERAL Must identify buyer's legal, tech.

Mayor Richard Carlbom CITY OF ST. JOSEPH 100 College Ave. SOUtll #7 St. Joseph, MN 56374 August 2nd, 2005 Dear Mayor Carlbom: I attended an ice cream social sponsored by the Sisters of the Order of S1. Benedict on July 14th that included a tour of the Monastery's nature areas. The hospitality and stewardship I experienced made me tllink of what makes living in Central Minnesota special and what gives people in St. Joseph a true se:p,se of place. The College of St. Benedict and St. Benedict's Monastery are cornerstones in the identity of the St. Joseph Community and will continue to play key economic and social roles in its future. A remnant of the "Big Woods," tlle scientific nature area the Sisters have worked diligently to preserve, represents an exceptional asset for all of St. Joseph. St. Joseph as a gro'Vl'ing and prosperous community has something very few communities have, namely a non-commercialized entrance from the adjacent interstate. This attractive and uncluttered community "front door" largely owes its existence to the Sisters' 150 year tradition in St. Joseph. As communities grow, well intended task forces meet to identify future needs and grov;1h strategies. It's notalways clear, however, that these task forces have a wide enough charge to consider every important consideration. It is imperative that elected officials take an occasional step back and confirm that the task e force's criteria fully identify the future needs and opportunities for the community. Further, the responsibility of elected officials is to ensure the defining vision of the small-town character of the community they serve is not forgotten. The Avon Hills Initiative (AHI) works to respect that defining vision. AHI is a community based organization committed to maintaining the natural and rural character of Avon, St. Joseph, Collegeville, and St. Wendell Townships. We act to initiate meaningful dialogue in order to preserve the rich cultural history and natural beauty of the Avon Hills for generations to come. We respectfully ask St. Joseph's elected officials to remain objective in their review of the criteria established in the determination and placement of the proposed Field Street Collector Road and that they remain open to e'-'Ploring alternative ideas and solutions consistent with St. Joseph's community vision and true sense of place. Sincerely, Stephen Plantenberg Chair, Avon Hills Initiative Cc, City Council Members e Saint 5enedict's MOllaster~ A place ~or peace and hospitalit.:! T he Sisters of Saint Benedict were founded in 1857 by four young Benedictine Sisters and two candidates who came from Eichstatt, Bavaria, to teach children of European settlers and to establish a Benedictine community on the frontier. At the invitation of the people of St. Joseph in 1863, the Sisters moved from St. Cloud to this frontier town where they established roots and built their monastery. At present, Saint Benedict's Monastery is home to 315 Sisters. Over time, the Benedictine monastic commu- nity has divested or contributed land to respond to the needs of the local community. This land has been used for community enrichment . 68 acres sold to the City of St. Joseph for Park Terrace, Millstream and Klinefelter parks. It has also been sold to respond to keep pace with the city's growth for city services . 24 acres sold to City of St. Joseph for storm drainage. Today, the Sisters have only 282 acres in St. Joseph (taxes are paid on 155 of these acres) . 100 acres of natural woods with walking trails to enjoy wildlife . 8 acres of tall grass prairie with pond and wetland . 84 acres leased to local farmers who practice sustainable farming . 5 acres of oak savannah and short grass prairie . 85 acres for the main monastery buildings/campus Sisters at the 6 Order at Saint Ben i II 1 CM Chapel Lane, at. Joaeph, MN 6837<4-0220 - - - Sacred spaces: A land of the heart . Historically the threat posed by the collector road has been around for a long time. I have several letters from biologists in which they give reasons why the road should not be built. Our prioresses frequently wrote to the city to oppose the road cutting through our grounds. Ecologically speaking, there are some important factors to speak to as we look at the land west of the monastery and college, roughly 180 acres. The woods comprise about 100 acres. The tall grass prairie spreads out over eight acres, and a growing oak savannah encompasses five acres. Within the woods there is a restored wetland, done with the help of the DNR., near Sacred Heart Hill (now alive with frogs and wood ducks). A tall grass swamp is found at the south end of the woods. A tiny corner ora small lake, No. 62 on the Steams County Environmental Map, which we call Lake Sarah, is an extension of our wooded land. Lake Sarah is about three to four acres and is 20 feet deep. Small fish, ducks and other animal life call t;his lake home, while beautiful cattail and other emergent plant life abound around the edges. Periodically beavers come to set up residence and do their own harvesting of some of the trees, and that is fine, for the trees also belong to them. Ifwe continue to move northeast, we come to the holding pond in the tall grass prairie and - .... ~; ; then we~see SQ,acres ofcultiv~ted fields.

The fieldsare"farniedby a renter who carries out sustainable practices. The fields and -;e agricultural land are sacred to us, a God-given gift. ._'. - -- The woods area is made up of maple, basswood, red and white oak. One may find, as they meander through the woods, an ancient tree whose trunk is so big that it takes three people to encircle it! At one time the woods had majestic elm trees, but these have died out due to the ravages of the bark beetle. Even amid common, vicious invaders, such as buckthorn and honeysuckle, which can overgrow natural areas, the 'monastery tries to be a good steward of our land by working to maintain the biodiversity of the woods, savannah and marshy areas. About fifty years ago, milk and beef cattle grazed the woods until the monastery removed them to allow nature to reclaim the woodland. Only now are the woods reaching the final stages of recovery and new life, trees and flowers, is evident everywhere. Spring flowers are corrnnon inhabitants, including bloodroot, trillium, jack-in-the-pulpit, wild onion, meadow rue, showy orchis, wild geranium, ferns, mushrooms and other shrubs. Many of these flowers are found only in mature woods. To reach these natural wonders, two carefully marked trails were laid out. Most of these are cathedral-like with overarching trees that allow us to wander and wonder through the woods on comfortable, shaded paths. The trails are mowed and marked with directional signs. We have begun the task of building water erosion controls on some of the steeper trails. e, /o-v rft--) I \ This woodland is shared with the local wildlife. Deer are the most numerous, to the point of allowing controlled hunts, but are a beautiful sight. Turkey, grouse, hoot owls and numerous woodpeckers of all kinds are both seen and heard. Many other common and uncommon birds are to be enjoyed, too. And what an experience when one sees the rare summer tanager for e the first time! Sightings are made possible while quietly walking a path or by spending a time to pause and soak in the beauty that surrounds one. Our four-season lodge provides warmth in the cooler months. Beneath the surface, one may find soils of sand and gravel laid down in broad out\.vash plains from the retreating Des Moines glacier. The deposits vary in thiclmess from about 10 feet near the lodge and continue to have greater thiclmesses as one moves toward the campus. These water-bearing sands and gravels (the aquifer) are highly permeable and water moves through quickly. The water table in this region is at about 27 feet from the surface but the wells of the campus go down to about 76 feet. The water table slopes and water flows from the southwest (from woods) to the northeast region under the campus including the city of St. Joseph. This same aquifer supplies water for the entire city of St. Joseph, the monastery and college campus. This aquifer is illlconfined and there is nothing to prevent surface pollutants from entering and contaminating the water-even to the deeper depths of the wells. Imagine the -am()1.Ult of contaminants resulting from the construction of a two- or three-lane road cutting across. the campus as well as the contaminants coming from cars and trucks on the road. What happens to the water supply of the city of St. Joseph, the monastery and college campus? We respect the woods and hope to maintain the rural spirit that we have created around 8t. e Joseph. In addition, the woods absorb many air pollutants, including carbon dioxide, that blow over our grounds and city, are a supplier of newly manufactured oxygen-the very stujJ we need to breathe-and act as an effective sound barrier from the busy interstate. Truly our woods can be called sacred: They are a part of God's creation given to us to be cared for, to be loved and to be enjoyed for the blessing they give. It is a place of grace for reflection and prayer, a place for discovery and surprise, a place to slow down and just be. A place where, if you are not careful, God will get to you. We do use the woods for all these reasons. A road bisecting the monastery grounds will put it ojJlimits for most of the Sisters, the college women who live here, the visitors at the Spirituality Center and from the local area. The consequences of such a road will be irreversibly damaging to our conununity today and for many, many years to come. Let's choose the higher option to protect this "Land of the heart."

JOSEPH St Joseph, MN 56374 Dear City Administrator Weyrens, I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed roadway through the hundred acre parcel of monastic property belonging to the Sisters of the Order of St. Benedict. The Sisters believe the roadway will adversely affect the value ofthe property as a sacred retreat for them and for their Spirituality Center. I agree with their concern. The Sisters refer to their woods as sacred. They can, of course, best speak to this. But what I have learned ofthe Rule of Saint Benedict over the years has certainly left me with greater appreciation for nature and also the value of silence and nature for prayer. Those woods are as integral to the monastery as the buildings are. The sight, sound and odor ofa road and automobiles would seriously interfere with the monastic and sacred value of this property. Is the proposed road worth such impairment to the monastery? To so seriously damage the restfulness of the monastic lands would be extremely short- sighted. The Benedictine communities in Ollf midst are a rare treasure. We are so fortunate to have such a resource. The Sisters provide spiritual leadership to many in our . region and elsewhere. Even those who have no affmity for the monastic community benefit from the unique feature it gives our area and from those drawn to the College and the Center because of the Sisters. Please do not authorize this road. Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. Sincerely, ---'1- ~ - Jean M. Didier 1919 Summit Drive Saint Cloud, MN 56303 . RECEIVED AUG 3 0 2005 CITY OF ST. JOSEPH . Dear Ms. Weyrens: August 26, 2005 I want to share with you one of the reasons why I feel so strongly against the projected field road. It is becoming increasingly clear that within the next twenty to thirty years all the large buildings we are living in and using at present will be much too large for the small number of sisters who will live here on this campus. These building will likely need to be sold to the college or to other interests. During the last forty years about 35 sisters have made their final vows. We have been realizing that we will within the next few decades have to build a much smaller monastery to house this group-a monastery with a smaller chapel and dining room. About the only place we can possibly locate this future monastery is out toward the west of our present location. We cannot go north because of the city of S1. Joseph. We cannot go south because of the college. We cannot go east because that land no longer belongs to us. Going toward the west near our barn., spirituality center, and our woods seems to be the only likely place for our monastic community to continue its existence and have a future. The projected field road would make it nearly impossible for us to use this land . for a future monastery. Thank you for the time you are giving to this vital issue. Sincerely, ~~ ..d. ;t:,~ S.

Minneapolis, MN 55416 612-922-7100 sigridrnh@aol.com Judy Weyrens, City Administrator P.O. Box 668 St Joseph, MN 56374 Dear Ms Weyrens: On last Friday evening I attended a celebration at St Benedicts Monastery along with over 700 other individuals who are active supporters of the work of the Sisters of St Benedict. I was absolutely appalled to hear about the proposed road that would cut through the Sisters' property. I understand the need for developing a better transportation infrastructure to meet the needs of a growing population in St Joseph. However I firmly believe that with all the local talent available in St Joseph a better solution can be found. I was told that to date any alternative proposals have not been explored fully by the design team, and also that most of the members of the team are not local residents. The process as described to me seems to indicate that "outsiders"are dictating the decisionmaking process. I am left wondering why the individuals who are leading the team developing the proposals are people who have technical expertise but have no knowledge or understanding of the local situation. The Sisters of St Benedict have been at the heart of the development of St Joseph for nearly 150 years. Surely their needs and preferences should playa critical role in whatever decisions are . made about new roads. I cannot imagine that anyone who lives in St Joseph and plans to continue to be part of life in this community would want to be responsible for casting a vote that demands that the Sisters give up a critical part of the relatively small amount of property they still own. Do you want to be the person that goes to the Monastery to inform the 200 sisters that live there that you have voted to annex their land and build a road that cuts them off from their woods, wetlands and native prairie? I urge you to: . open the discussion of options to include the widest possible range of choices, . establish a timeline that allows adequate investigation of all the feasible options, . open the process to include active, meaningful input from all sectors of the local community, and . ensure that the process used to develop recommendations and make decisions is controlled by local individuals who will experience the costs and benefits of the decisions. I trust that reason and common sense will prevail. I will be tracking the process closely in the coming weeks. ~cerelY. ~ S~ eson, Ph.D. . -~------ .

St. Benedict's property is as close to "sacred ground" as we get on this earth.

Please understand that its not just the people living at the Monastery that will be affected by this road - it will impact the hundreds of people who participate in the retreats and other programs St. Benedict's offer each year.

I am concerned that such a proposal even entered the minds of the St. Joseph mayor and city council members. To subject the serene atmosphere of this fine Benedictine community to noise and air pollution in the name of "progress" is unconscionable. Once done, it can never be reversed. . The proposed road will harm the historic value of this area and destroy the peaceful atmosphere that has been a part of this community for over 150 years.

Order at Saint Benedict August 25, 2005 Dear City Administrator Weyrens, I am a member of the Sisters of St. Benedict and I am deeply disturbed about the plan for the Collector Road that would bring it right through our property and straight across to the new development across College Avenue. I am having a hard time imagining why this seems to so many of you to be the best route. For us in the Monastery it completely changes how we can use our property. For the College it completely changes it rural atmosphere into a busy highway running through it. And for people who just built homes across College Avenue it will certainly change what they thought they had. I would like to think our Council could be more creative in coming up with plans for the city that will not be as divisive as this road will be. I am asking you to drop this plan and to go back to the drawing board to see how things can be made better for all of St. Joseph. I do not think this is a well thought out plan at all. .

Judy Weyrens, City Administrator P.O. Box 668 St. Joseph, MN 56374 Dear Judy Weyrens, I am writing to express my concerns about the proposed Collector Road to divert traffic from Minnesota Street that would cut through Saint Benedict's Monastery property. Viewing the consultant's concept of the collector road path leaves me, as a member of the monastery for almost 50 years, breathless to say the least. When I came to the monastery, I had lived in the rural areas ofChanhassen, MN and Delano MN, the daughter of farmers. Sinking my roots in rural St. Joseph at this monastery was just right for me then and still is. If this proposed Collector Road were to be constructed, it would separate the monastery and college from our sacred woodland, wetland and restored prairie. Safe and free access to the woods and the walking trails that I enjoy now would be cut off to myself but even more, to the rest of the hundreds of sisters whose home is here and to the thousands of students and residents of St. Joseph who also enjoy communing with nature in this way. Such a road, were it to be built, would bring traffic very close to the monastery's . Spirituality Center. This is a place where we as a monastic community offer to our neighbors, our families and friends a place of quiet for solitude and reflective prayer. The Spirituality Center is also a place where groups and individuals corne to discover and to practice responding to the God-hunger in their lives and in our world. The increased noise and pollution of a road so close would make it, very difficult if not impossible to continue this major ministry of the monastery. The path of the proposed road is also very close to CSB student housing, the Benedicta Arts Center and CSB sports fields. Having a road so close would endanger the students, the athletes, their families and visitors who attend cultural and athletic events. As one of your constituents, I ask you to consider options in planning for the growth of St. Joseph. Thank you for considering my viewpoints. Sincerely, -rl' ~.~~~ Theresa Sch acher OSB P.S.

What would be several alternative corridors? What would be the pros and cons of each proposal and how could the public have assess to these lists? Several other reasons for not going through with the field street corridor proposal would be an increase of noise and air pollution for those living along the road, the cutting off of safe access to woods and walking trails to sisters, students, residents of St. Joseph and visitors and the new heavy truck traffic coming close to the Spirituality Center and college. .

Box 668 St. Joseph, MN 56374 Dear Judy, It was shocking to learn about the Field Street Corridor Proposal. It is terribly sad that such a pristine area be uprooted and paved over. Our beautiful woodlands are fast disappearing here in Minnesota. These few remaining areas are needed. The area that would be used is a part of St. Benedict's quiet and beautiful walking trails and part farm land. You must be aware that when we finally cut down our forests and pave over enough land, we will die. The woods and forests supply our air, they are our lungs, our life support system, Healing the Planet. by Paul R. Ehrlich and Anne H. Ehrlich. . I am an Oblate of St. Benedict's Monastery and I have come to this beautiful area for over a decade, seeking quiet and solitude in the midst of a very busy life. It has been a refuge for thousands of people every year. As you know this proposal discounts alternate road options such as Co. Rd. 121, Co. Rd. 138 and Hwy.23. I have learned that it endangers the safe drinking water for the entire city by possible pollution of the aquifer under the proposed road and of course it will increase the noise and air pollution. This is sacred land, holy ground and it willbe separated from the monastery and college forever. Each year I come to the Spirituality Center for retreats and to get away from the noise and find beauty once again in the land. The Field Street Corridor Proposal jeopardizes the limited wooded acreage of Saint Benedict's Monastery. Please reconsider this proposal.

JOSEPH August 22, 2005 Judy Weyrens, Administrator P.O. Box 668 St. Joseph, MN 56374 Dear Ms. Weyrens, The city of St. Joseph has chosen as its motto, "Tomorrow with Tradition." St. Joseph has a tradition of valuing parks and places of natural beauty. When policeman Brian Klinefelter was shot and killed in 1996, the dedication of a park in Brian's name was chosen as the best way to memorialize his selfless sacrifice for the common good. In addition to Klinefelter Park:, St. Joseph has four other parks, a number which indicates to me that its citizens place high value on land set aside for aesthetic, recreational, and ecological purposes. The city is currently considering a proposal which would cut through such places of natural beauty, including property of St. Benedict's Monastery which includes woods with walking trails, wetlands, restored prairie, a holding pond for small wildlife, farm land and gardens. The sisters have set aside these areas of natural beauty as places to renew and nurture the human spirit. But the sisters and their guests are not the only ones who visit, enjoy, and "profit" from . these places. College students go running on the gravel road and in the woods, the elderly from St. Joseph Apartments and other townspeople frequently walk and bike the road, and another St. Joe resident travels the road in his wheelchair. Even for those who will never set foot on this land, there are and will be long-term benefits such as the preservation of wild life and the balance of nature, including cleaner air due to oxygen- producing woods and trees. The long tradition of setting aside some areas of natural beauty for non-commercial and seemingly non-productive purposes is, in my opinion, too often and too quickly set aside by today's society in favor of "development," which translates not as human or societal development but as financial profit for a few. Too little attention is being given, I believe, to the long-term effects of a "development" which sacrifices the enrichment and nourishment of the human spirit to efficiency and material gain. As a concerned and long-time resident of the city of St. Joseph, I urge you to do everything in your power to adopt an alternate route to the proposed south collector road, which would destroy cherished areas of natural beauty. Let's hold onto our tradition of valuing parks over pavement and leave a legacy of lasting value to those who will come after us. Sincerely, e!~ /r~ Sister Delores Dufner, OSB . RECEIVED .

I graduated from CSB 55 years ago and have supported the college fmanciaUy and as an . Oblate all these years. One place I visit from time to time is the Spirituality Center. Having a noisy traffic corridor close to that quiet, comptemplative place would be an assault, an assault on the character of the whole campus, in fact. Is there no other alternative? I fmd it hard to believe that no other route would serve the purpose and would spare the campus and convent the traffic noise and pollution. The impact to 2300+ people is a considerable con argument, it seems to me. Please consider other alternatives. Thank you for your consideration of my opinion.
