QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT
4th Quarter 2024
1 | Page
The quarterly financial report analyzes the cash and investment holdings of the City of St. Joseph, fund
analysis, debt liabilities, and other items that affect the financial conditions of the city. Accounts
payables are presented to city council each meeting. Monthly General fund and Enterprise funds
financial reports are printed for city council review. The December financial reports are attached to
this quarterly financial report. In addition, St. Joseph Boards and Commissions review their specific
fund financial statements each meeting to ensure recommendations they request to city council can be
financially considered.
Cash and Investments Summary
Quarterly and monthly reconciled cash/investment and budget to actual position are provided for
Council review. The numbers presented are the cash balances as of December 31, 2024. The graph
below shows the allocations of cash and investment holdings.
The City of St. Joseph holds cash and investments at four financial institutions and four brokerage firms.
Cash flows are monitored to ensure cash needs are met to pay invoices and payroll while investing
within the parameters of the City’s investment policy to earn interest on cash that is not needed
immediately.
Our investment policy considers different variables besides interest earnings, one being investing in the
local institutions to have city money work back within the city. Indirectly these investments are gains
for the public funds and reduce the tax burdens on all taxpayers. The city policy also considers custodial
risk to insure deposits and investments are insured above FDIC/SPIC/NCUA coverage. Another
perimeter is concentration of credit risk. This states the City will invest in various instruments and
different institutions to protect from losses on one type or bank.
The spreadsheet on the next two pages summarizes our institutions and holdings at each along with the
summary of credit risks analyzed.

- The market rate of return (ROR) is approximately 4.0% with an average maturity of 24 months.
The City tiers the maturity dates within the boundaries of the Investment Policy. The tiered
maturity dates have helped the City maintain a higher rate of return than the current market
over time. In addition, one of the goals is to invest locally. The City’s more immediate cash flow
needs are held at local financial institutions and the State money market fund (PMA 4M).
- The Federal Open Market Committee [FOMC] began reducing the targeted federal fund rate in
fall 2024. In December 2024, FOMC made a third consecutive rate cut for a total of 75-100 basis
points in 2024. The rate cuts reflect the commitment of the Fed’s to achieve its dual goals of
maximum employment and price stabilization. Future rate cuts may be at a slower pace in 2025.
- Interest earnings for 2024 amounts to $777,162 and an increase in market value of $369,060.
The City’s policy is to hold investments until maturity. GASB 72 requires the City to mark
investments at the current market value as of the close of each month. In doing so, earnings will
show fluctuations. The investment holdings will produce earnings; however, it is unknown what
the market valuation adjustment impact will be on the City’s portfolio.
- Overall, the cash and investments balance increased $1,081,090 from the beginning of the year.
Bond proceeds for the 2024 street improvements and Elm Street extension will be spent down
as the project completes in summer 2025. Community Center/YMCA pledges continue to be
received quarterly. The donations are being invested until the project moves forward. St. Cloud
local option sales taxes continue to exceed expenses in the fund; thereby, increasing the cash
balance in Fund 200. Development was strong in 2024. Fees exceeded budgeted expenses.
The investment maturities by year are depicted in the graph below including the cash on hand at the
end of 2024. Split out in the graph are the funds being held for the St. Joseph Community Center/YMCA.

A further discussion of a few funds follows on the next couple pages.
Water fund analysis (fund 601/501) – The water fund summary below shows an analysis of the water
fund at Dec. 31st, including the Water fund (601) and the Water Access fund (WAC-501) compared to
the 2024 budget. The City collected WAC fees from nine single-family homes and seven new businesses.
Water fund activity represents 89% expensed, 100% of the budget received at the end of December
(excluding depreciation and internal transfers). The Utility Operators worked with a contractor to
conduct a leak detection in the water lines. A couple water main breaks also occurred in the spring.
Repair costs are still coming in. The Hill Street/Morningside Acres electrolysis study on the dimpling of
the water mains was conducted by Lake Superior Consulting finding little current intrusion. Corrosive
soils is a possible cause of the dimpling. Cellular meter conversions were completed by Midwest Testing
in fall 2024. A handful of meters will be replaced by Public Works staff over the winter months to
complete the 2024 project. The SCADA upgrade contract payment was made in 2024.

hall in January. A summary of the permit activity (excluding rental inspection permits) for the past three
years is in the table below. The number of permits in 2022 and 2023 were higher due to a May 2022 hail
storm that prompted many re-roofing and re-siding permits.

Ordinance Amendment – Short-term Rental First Reading of
Revised Draft
ACTION REQUESTED
Discussion and feedback
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
Planning Commission has not reviewed the revised ordinance. Prior to the Nov. 4th work session Planning
Commission held a public hearing on Sept. 9th (no one spoke) and voted 6-0 in approval of the original
drafted ordinance amendment (which did not include the Conditional Use language).
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION At the Nov. 4th Council work session, the Council directed staff to revise the
ordinance to require that Short-term Rentals are a Conditional Use within Residential districts.
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
Per input from the Council staff has brought back a revised draft which includes:
•Requiring that any short-term rentals are a Conditional Use in the following Zoning Districts:
Agricultural, Rural Residential, R-1 Single Family, R-2 Two Family, R-4 Townhouse/Patio Home
•Short-term rentals are listed as a permitted use in the B-1 Central Business District (Downtown)
and B-2 Highway Commercial provided that the use is secondary to a principle commercial use of
the property. If the use is the principle use of a property in these districts the use is allowed but
through a Conditional Use. This language has been added to better align with some discussion and
overall vision of the downtown. If short-term rental is allowed outright as a permitted use you
could see some homes in the downtown be converted to short-term rental only which could
remove the full redevelopment potential of property. The language also aligns with similar uses in
the Commercial district that require a Conditional Use like: hotels, motels, Bed and Breakfasts.
The remaining language in the draft has not changed. As a recap the draft would:
•Define what a short-term rental is. Defined as a place where sleeping quarters are furnished to the
public on a nightly, weekly or less than 27-day time period.
•Require an annual license and inspection for all short-term rentals regardless of where they are
located. The license and inspection would be due at the same time as our standard rental license.
By aligning the timing with our standard rental license, we are ensuring we are not duplicating
efforts. License fee and inspection amounts will match the standard rental license. Inspections will
be completed during the same time of year our inspectors are checking standard rentals.
•Require short-term rentals to display emergency contact information in a visible location. Helps
ensure if off-hours complaints happen the contact information is available and can be reached.
This lessens the reliance on having contacts in a database that police officers for example may not
have access to at the moment.
•Lodging tax would apply to any short-term rental. This puts the short-term rentals on same playing
field as Bed and Breakfast, hotel, motels, etc. to help ensure taxes are applied fair and consistently.
•Require short-term rentals in all residential districts to be owner occupied and add definition of
what an owner-occupied unit is. Helps prevent residential homes being bought and converted for
the sole use of short-term rental. Some cities have experienced corporations deploying this method
where they purchase multiple homes and convert them to a short-term rental operation. This could
create concerns as the residential neighborhood character may feel more similar to commercial if
multiple homes are purchased and converted to short-term rentals. Requiring an owner-occupied
component prevents off-site ownership.
• Allow short-term rentals in commercial districts while disallowing in Light Industrial district
• Define the process of license suspensions, revocations, denials, and fines for non-compliance
Overall the approval process for Short-Term rental as drafted would be as follows:
Residential District
1. Conditional Use permit
2. Short-term Rental license and inspection
Commercial Districts (if the use is secondary to an existing commercial use)
1. Short-term Rental license and inspection
Commercial Districts (if the use is the sole use of the property)
1. Conditional Use permit
2. Short-term Rental license and inspection
Legal has reviewed the updated draft and did not have any comments. Staff has also shared updates to
interested parties who have reached out.
BUDGET IMPACT Any lodging tax collected would go to CVB funds and be used towards marketing
and promotions.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Provide feedback on the draft ordinance amendment, including Conditional Use verbiage in Ag, RR,
R1, R2, & R4 zoning districts. Updated language follows direction from the Council where the
consensus was to require that a Short-term Rental obtain a Conditional Use permit if the use is
proposed in a residential district.
2. Review and provide feedback on proposed Short-Term Rental language in the B1 & B2 zoning
districts which would allow Short-Term Rental as a permitted use if it is secondary in nature to the
commercial principal use. If short-term rental is the principal use, it would be allowed through
Conditional Use. This language has been added to align with the vision of the downtown and
commercial areas. It also aligns with similar uses and requirements. For example, hotels, motels, and
Bed and Breakfasts are required to obtain a Conditional Use.
Feedback will help staff prepare a final drafted ordinance for consideration at future Council meeting.

under this Ordinance unless the owner of the STR unit(s) agrees in their application to
permit inspections to determine compliance with City Code during the effective period of
the rental license. The submission of a license application, or the possession of a license
issued by the City, shall constitute the express consent of the owner to grant free access and
entry to the structure or premises under the owner’s control for inspection pursuant to this
chapter. If any owner refuses to permit or schedule free access and entry to the structure or
premises under their control for such inspection, or refuses to be present during any such
inspection when requested by the Code Official, the application for a new or renewal STR
license shall be immediately denied or an existing license may be revoked for such refusal. If
at any other time the Code Official seeks entry to a licensed STR unit for inspection and the

BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION N/A
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION N/A
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: The police department is currently short one police officer while
one of our officers is out on maternity leave until approximately August 8th, 2025. Currently, it
costs the city extra money to bring officers in on overtime, contract with outside agencies to fill,
and at other times we go with limited services and limited response times due to a reduction in
staff. We have been approached by an officer who has worked most of his career for the Stearns
County Sheriff’s department, and he is very familiar with our city and our process of doing business
including jail, detox, St. Cloud Hospital, records management system (RMS), etc. The cost to get
this officer up and running and the help this officer can contribute are already covered in the city
budget and the benefits far outweigh the costs.
BUDGET IMPACT None. Current officer out on leave wages would be more than bringing in this
officer.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION Hire Victor Weiss to Step 1 on the police scale.
