Motion to adopt Resolution 2025-09 joining the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities.
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
The Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities (CGMC) is a non-profit advocacy organization focused
on legislative policies that benefit cities located outside the seven -county Twin Cities metro
area.
Historically, Monticello has not been a member since the tax impact of the Monticello Nuclear
Plant means the City does not qualify for Local Government Aid, a substantial advocacy topic
for CGMC. However, in recent years there has been a series of legislative efforts that put critical
aspects of local control at risk, particularly for cities in greater Minnesota. During the 2024
session, Monticello advocated for maintaining local control and often overlapped with
advocacy being done by CGMC. Rather than relying only on solo efforts or informal
partnerships, staff recommend joining CGMC and offering support for policies and legislation
that acknowledges the needs of non -metro communities.
The cost to join the organization is calculated annually. For a city the size of Monticello, the
dues include a base fee of $1,500 plus an additional fee based on the applicable per capita
assessment rate. However, Monticello's lack of Local Government Aid means it would receive a
50% discount on annual dues. In addition, since Monticello has not been a member before, the
dues would be phased in over a period of four years. During the first year, Monticello would be
assessed 25% of the total dues, followed in subsequent years by 50%, 75%, and finally 100% in
year 4. The cost for the first year with applicable discounts is $4,064.
Staff propose to pay membership dues with the 2025 budget allocation of $25,000 for
professional services within the Administrative Department of the General Fund. During budget
discussions, staff recommended using the funds for a CGMC membership as well as a
government relations contract for Monticello -specific legislative initiatives.
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
Finally, the proposed resolution commits the City to maintain membership through the phased
membership period. If membership is approved, adequate membership dues would need to be
included within the budget through 2028. After that, the City would be able to decide annually
whether to continue membership in CGMC.
I. Budget Impact: The 2025 budget includes funds to pay for membership through the
Administrative Department within the General Fund.
The proposed resolution includes a commitment to maintain membership as dues are
phased in over a period of four years. At the full rate, Monticello is estimated to pay
$16,258 annually. Going forward, the membership rate would continue to be budgeted
within the Administrative Department.
II. Staff Workload Impact: Periodic participation in Coalition opportunities.
III. Comprehensive Plan Impact: N/A
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommend adopting the resolution and joining the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities.
Their advocacy efforts align with City of Monticello positions on housing, transportation,
economic development, and more. Membership will allow Monticello to participate in advocacy
that represents communities outside of the Twin Cities metro area and bring attention to issues
critical to the future of our community.

We are a nonprofit, nonpartisan advocacy organization
representing more than 100 cities outside of the Twin Cities
metropolitan area. We advocate for the unique needs of Greater
Minnesota cities on issues such as Local Government Aid,
economic development, environment, transportation, and more.
CGMC is led by a board of directors made up of mayors, city
councilors and city staff members from across Greater Minnesota.
Our legislative advocacy focuses on five main areas; LGA
& property taxes, economic development, environment,
transportation, and annexation & land use. Within these
areas, priorities and positions are selected based on input
gleaned from our members through subcommittee meetings
and informal discussions. Our official legislative priorities and
positions are adopted by CGMC's full membership at our Fall
Conference in November.
For most cities, dues are calculated based on a $1,500 base fee
plus an amount per capita (which is tiered so that larger cities
pay more per capita than smaller cities), A different calculation is
used for cities with populations greater than 35,000.
We have a four-year phase -in fee schedule for new members or
returning cities that have not been members in the last five years.
For those cities, dues are phased in starting at 25% of the total
in the first year and then stepping up to 50%, 75%, and finally
100% over the next three years. This phase -in schedule allows
new members to see the work of the CGMC and participate in our
programs for just a small initial investment.
We host several events each year including our Summer
Conference, Fall Conference, Legislative Action Day (our annual
"lobby day" at the Capitol in St. Paul), and seminars on labor &
employment issues. In addition to our in -person events, we often
Our origins stem from the early 1970s, when several Greater
Minnesota mayors began to express concerns that their
communities were not receiving adequate attention at the
legislature. They decided Greater Minnesota cities needed their
own representation at the Capitol. CGMC started with just 13 cities
and was led by enthusiastic city officials who hired lobbyists,
met regularly with legislators, promoted their ideas in the media,
and developed a strong presence around the Capitol, all while
continuing to welcome additional members into the fold.
In addition to our legislative advocacy, we have a public labor
and employment program that provides our members with data
and information on topics ranging from negotiations with unions
to disciplining employees and other workplace situations. Our
labor team conducts seminars and webinars and has been a vital
resource during the COVID-19 pandemic as our member cities
navigate the new realities for their employees and workplaces.
CGMC member cities are also entitled to reduced fees on legal
services related to labor and employment issues.
We keep in touch with members in several ways, The most
consistent is through the CGMC in Brief, our weekly e-newsletter
that provides updates on activities at the legislature, emerging
issues, grant opportunities, and upcoming events. We also offer
opportunities to delve more deeply into specific topics through
webinars featuring CGMC staff or outside guests and experts.
In addition, CGMC staff members visit as many of our member
cities between legislative sessions as possible. These visits can
take many forms; Zoom meetings, face-to-face with the mayor
and staff, or a presentation to the whole council.
We do not lobby or take positions on legislation that is specific to
individual cities. However, our expert staff is always happy to offer
advice and perspective to our members on the legislature and the
conduct webinars to provide in-depth information on specific legislative process.

GREATER MN CITIES a� scts Ca M C Gipa r+
Years of experience have shown that if CGMC doesn't speak up on
certain issues, no one will — and surely no one who is specifically
looking out for Greater Minnesota. The cities of Minneapolis and
St. Paul have several lobbyists working for them at the Capitol, as
do communities across the metro area through the Metro Cities
organization and Met Council. Greater Minnesota deserves the
same strong team of advocates looking out for your communities.
CGMC provides that team.
While the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) covers issues that
impact all cities across the state, CGMC focuses specifically on
the unique needs and interests of cities in Greater Minnesota.
The work of CGMC and LMC is often complementary, but our
distinct focus means we advocate for rural communities in ways
LMC does not. By concentrating on needs and issues from a
Greater Minnesota perspective, we strive to ensure that Greater
Minnesota receives its fair share of state resources such as
Local Government Aid, bonding dollars, economic development
programs, etc.
CGMC is most known for our advocacy on LGA, but we work on
many other issues that are important to cities across Greater
Minnesota. Child care, housing, broadband, transportation,
environmental regulations, and annexation are just a few of the
other critical issues that we work on.
In addition, we provide a discount on CGMC membership for cities
that do not receive LGA. If your city's dues work out to be more
than the LGA you receive, you are only charged for half of what
your dues would otherwise be.
Is C6jMCPst
&wot-
er pfr1-isu
No! We are a nonpartisan organization and the city officials
involved in CGMC cover every corner of the ideological spectrum.
We have strong positive relationships and work closely with
members of both parties to advance the needs of Greater
Minnesota — and we aren't afraid to criticize either party when
their actions warrant it.
Many cities hire a contract lobbyist or employ a staff member
tasked with advancing specific bills at the legislature. They are
great for bringing attention to a city -specific project, but no
single contract lobbyist for an individual city is able to influence
statewide policy on the "big issues" like LGA or transportation
funding. When it comes to these types of major issues, a well -
established association of like-minded advocates who can wield
their collective power is far more effective.
There are certainly many cities who are not members of the
CGMC but who still reap the benefits of our work. However, the
cities who join CGMC understand that accomplishing favorable
outcomes for Greater Minnesota requires cities to work together
and put up a united front. CGMC cannot achieve success for all
Greater Minnesota cities without a large group of member cities
who support our shared goals and priorities.

Explanation of Dues for Monticello
CGMC general membership dues are calculated using the assessment policy approved by the
membership at its annual meeting each summer. For returning members, dues are invoiced in
early August for the upcoming fiscal year. Cities have until February I of the following year to
pay their membership dues, which can be paid from either year's budget.
The basic CGMC membership dues policy approved for the 2024-25 fiscal year stipulates that all
cities with a population under 35,000 pay a base fee of $1,500, plus an additional fee based on
the applicable per capita assessment rate. Cities with a population over 35,000 pay a base fee of
$69,317 with a lower per capita assessment rate. This dues policy is designed to ensure that each
member city pays proportionate dues relative to their population size.
There are several other factors that impact the calculation of membership dues. For new member
cities or returning member cities that have not been CGMC members for more than five years,
membership dues are phased in over the course of a four-year period. For the first year, new
member cities are assessed 25% of their total dues. In the second year, 50% of their total, and in
the third year, 75% of their total. In the fourth year of membership and thereafter, cities are
assessed their full dues. In addition, if a member's local government aid is less than its total dues,
they receive a 50% discount on membership dues for that year.
Based on the dues policies outlined above, the city of Monticello would be assessed at
approximately the following rates over the next four years with dues fully phased in by 2027-
2028:
2024-2025: $4,064
2025-2026: $8,129
2026-2027: $12,193
2027-2028: $16,258
These amounts will likely vary in the coming years based on city population, local government
aid received, and the dues policies approved each year by CGMC membership. However, these
numbers should serve as a safe ballpark as you assess your decision to join.

PREVIOUS CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The City Council has approved annual membership in the coalition since 2013.
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
The 1-94 West Corridor Coalition is focused on improving 1-94 and its support facilities through
both short and long-term improvements. With a unified voice, the organization advocates for
solutions to address transportation concerns along the 1-94 corridor between Maple Grove and
St. Cloud.
The Coalition advocated for the 1-94 Gap project between Albertville and Monticello which was
awarded $78 million in 2023. This funding completes capacity expansion between Clearwater
and 610 in Maple Grove.
The Coalition continues to advocate for the completion of the funded projects as well as for
future projects which include improvements such as the Fish Lake interchange as well as
providing additional interchanges along the corridor to realize the benefits of the additional

Project Description:
ANALYSIS:
B-3 Commercial —Automobile Sales
B-3 Commercial — Mixed Retail
B-3 Commercial — Commercial Service
B-3 Commercial —Auto Repair Major
The project is a newly proposed use on a previously developed
site at the southwest corner of Highway 25 and Chelsea Road. The
property was previously used as a rental equipment retail and
storage facility. The new use would be for Vehicle Sales and
display, a Conditional Use in the B-3 (Highway Business) zoning
district.
The applicant proposes establishing a display lot for previously
owned automobiles along the Chelsea Road and Highway 25
frontages, with customer and employee parking adjacent to the
building. Portions of the building would be remodeled for office
facilities and showroom space, according to the site plan.
Minimal exterior building changes are planned for the project (if
any).
Zoning. As noted above, the subject site is zoned B-3 (Highway Business) District. The B-3
District is designed for uses that are highway and automobile oriented, and includes a number
of existing vehicle sales facilities, concentrated along the Chelsea Road area from this location
to the west.
When reviewing the eligibility of a proposed Conditional Use, the Planning Commission and City
Council look generally to the character of the area in question to ensure that the proposed use
will be compatible with the existing and proposed land use pattern. In addition to the general
character, the Zoning Ordinance provides specific use standards that apply specifically to
vehicle sales and rental.
The site and proposed use are also subject to the general standards of the zoning ordinance
related to parking supply, paving and curbing, lighting, landscaping, and other finishing
standards. Although the site was developed and used in the past, neither the building nor the
site conditions are entirely consistent with current zoning standards.
Legal nonconforming structures and uses are allowed to continue provided they are not
expanded and are put to the same use on a continuous basis. The zoning ordinance (reflecting
state law) distinguishes two types of nonconformities — nonconforming structures and
nonconforming uses. In this case, the structure is not proposed for exterior change, such as
expansion or significant alteration. However, the principal use of the site is proposed to change.
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
"Vehicles" are defined by the Zoning Ordinance as those licensed for, and capable of, operating
on public roadways. This definition distinguishes "Vehicle" Sales and Rental from general
equipment rental for the purposes of land use. The proposed use is therefore a new use under
the ordinance.
The building may continue (without expansion) in its current nonconforming state. Other site
conditions, however, are not included in the non -conformity protections provided to the
"structure." As a result, the site itself is required to comply with current zoning regulations now
that a new use, Vehicle Sales and Rental, is being proposed.
The standards for Vehicle Sales and Rental follow below, along with analysis on the proposed
use and site compliance relative to both the specific use standards and the general finishing
standards of the zoning ordinance.
(30) Vehicle sales or rental.
(a) The minimum building size for any vehicle sales or rental use shall comply with
the standards in Table 5-3.

(c) All lighting shall be in compliance with § 153.063.

City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
(d) The outside sales and display area shall be hard surfaced.
(e) The outside sales and display area does not utilize parking spaces which are
required for conformance with this chapter.
(f) Vehicular access points shall create a minimum of conflict with through traffic
movement and shall be subject to the approval of the Community Development
Department.
(g) There is a minimum lot area of 22,500 square feet and minimum lot dimensions
of 150 feet by 130 feet.
(h) A drainage system subject to the approval of the Community Development
Department shall be installed.
Site Design. The site consists of two parcels, totaling just under 28,000 square feet in lot area,
with a building of approximately 6,300 square feet. The building size meets the coverage
percentage and square footage requirement of the "Vehicles Sales and Rental" code. Site
dimensions based on the survey information provided also meet the required minimum of 150
by 130 feet. The site is therefore compliant with dimensional requirements of the use specific
standards.
No changes are proposed to the current access point. Traffic will continue to enter the site from
a single driveway on the west side of the parcel off Sandberg Road. The applicant's site plan
relies on a layout that allows incoming traffic to circulate one-way around a center -display area
of vehicles, ringed by display at the perimeter of the site on the north and east frontages. As a
condition of approval, the applicant will be required to provide one-way pavement markings
consistent with the site plan and any recommendation of the City Engineer. The drive aisle
widths shown are appropriate for one-way circulation. The current site also includes the
existing curb around the entire vehicle display area, as required by ordinance. It is
recommended that the applicant review the condition of the curb and plan for future
replacement as needed to maintain compliance with City ordinance.
The site plan illustrates 27 vehicle display spaces, all at a dimension of 9 by 20 feet, which is the
City's standard parking dimension. As a display use, the dimensions could be adjusted slightly,
although the display spaces should be no less than 8 x 18 feet in dimension. The required
employee and customer spaces must continue to meet the 9 x 20-foot dimensional
requirements. The applicant's revised site plan, submitted just prior to the January 7, 2025
Planning Commission meeting, now details 29 display spaces, dimensioned at 8' x 20'.
The applicant provided a draft floor plan for the proposed use. A portion of the building is
shown as "shop area." The applicant's narrative does not indicate any proposed auto repair
uses. A condition of approval was included in Exhibit Z to note that no minor auto repair,
4
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
beyond minor detailing and incidental servicing expected for used vehicle display, is permitted
without an amendment to the CUP for consideration of an "Auto Repair — Minor" use.
The site plan is prepared as a sketch plan, and certain details are needed to verify consistency
with zoning requirements. In particular, the following elements are not provided for based on
the plans and site inspection:
1. Landscaping. The applicant submitted a revised site plan which illustrates the required
number of 68 shrubs. The size and species are to be determined. Comments below are
on the original site plan submission for Planning Commission, which describes the
required number of shrubs.
The site plan does not fully illustrate existing or proposed landscaping as required by the
zoning ordinance. From site photography, some limited landscaping is present on the
site. The zoning ordinance requires 10 ACH ("Aggregate Caliper Inches" - diameter of
trunk) per acre — a total of 7 caliper inches required for this site. The site may comply
with this requirement, but this should be verified on the site plan. The zoning ordinance
also requires 2 shrubs per 10 feet of linear building perimeter. For this site, that would
be 68 shrubs for the 340 feet of building perimeter. A significant additional shrub
planting should be planned and submitted as a condition of approval, or an alternative
plan should be proposed that meets the requirements of the zoning ordinance.
2. Parking. The zoning ordinance requires parking supply for Vehicle Sales and Rental Uses
at the rate of 8 spaces for the first 1,000 square feet of building area, plus one space per
each additional 800 square feet. For the 6,300 building, a total of 15 parking spaces are
required for customers and staff. The proposed site plan illustrates 5 customer and 2
employee spaces. While some of the display vehicles spots could be replaced by
customer and employee parking, it would be important to ensure that those spots are
available for that purpose via signage. As Sandberg Road is already congested with on -
street parking, ensuring that parking from this use does not overflow onto the street
would be a step toward resolving the current issues. The applicant's revised site plan
details employee parking in the storage area located inside the building, as well as
along the outside front and rear of the building, exceeding the required 15 spaces.
3. Lighting. The site plan does not identify proposed site lighting. Site photography
appears to show one existing pole with site lighting mounted on it. The height of the
pole and the lighting may not comply with the City's maximum pole height of 25 feet.
This is an existing non -confirming condition. However, any new lighting for a vehicle
sales facility should be identified and be consistent with ordinance requirements.
4. Building Materials. The plan does not appear to propose any changes to the building
exterior. While it is not consistent with current building requirements in the B-3 District,
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
the structure itself may be repurposed and remodeled without requiring it to be
brought into conformance (as noted above). Additional enhancement to building
materials to bring it closer to consistency with the general commercial building
standards is encouraged but not required given non -conformity allowances.
5. Signage. The applicant has not proposed signage with this application. An existing
freestanding sign is located at the southeast corner of the site and may be reused by the
applicant. Other wall signage should comply with City sign ordinance limitations.
General Review Criteria. In addition to the specific use standards applicable, to follow is a
review of requirements for any Conditional Use Permit with a staff comment for each element.
(i) The use will not substantially diminish or impair property values within the immediate
vicinity of the subject property.
Staff Comment: As an allowed use in the district, and with the conditions identified,
there is no reason to believe that there will be any negative impacts on neighboring
property values. The B-3 District was established to create development opportunities
for travelers and auto -related commercial uses. This request for this use is consistent
with that district.
(ii) The use will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, or welfare of persons
residing or working near the use.
Staff Comment: The site plan for the proposed use is deficient in specific zoning
standards required of a Conditional Use for parking and landscaping. The various site
application plans should be updated to verify consistency with these standards as a
condition of, or prior to, any approval.
(iii) The proposed use will not impede the normal and orderly development of surrounding
property for permitted uses predominant in the area.
Staff Comment: The use itself is consistent with the intent of the zoning district and land
use category. Site development details should be brought into conformance as required
by the zoning ordinance, as has been required of other vehicle sales facilities in the
district.
(iv) The use will not pose an undue burden on public utilities or roads, and adequate sanitary
facilities are provided.
Staff Comment: The proposal is an allowed use and its utility impacts are included in the
City's planning for the district. Compliance with off-street parking requirements and
assurance that green space requirements will be adhered to will ensure that this site
proposal meets this standard.
11
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
(v) The use can provide adequate parking and loading spaces, and all storage on the site
can be done in conformance with City Code requirements.
Staff Comment: The required parking supply is approximately double those provided by
the proposed site plan. Some of the display spaces should be redesignated for parking
as noted in this report.
(vi) The use will not result in any nuisance including but not limited to odor, noise, or sight
pollution.
Staff Comment: Landscaping, site drainage, parking, and lighting details are among
those that are necessary to ensure consistency with this general standard.
(vii) The use will not unnecessarily impact natural features such as woodlands, wetlands, and
shorelines; and all erosion will be properly controlled.
Staff Comment: No impacts to any natural features are expected with this project.
(viii) The use will adhere to any applicable additional criteria outlined in the Zoning Ordinance
for the proposed use.
Staff Comment: As discussed, additional detail for parking and landscaping are required
as a part of the site plan package to verify compliance with this standard. The applicant
supplied a revised site plan detailing compliance with parking and landscaping
requirements.
Budget Impact: The applicant submitted the required fee and escrow to cover the costs
of the hearing and review of the applications.
II. Staff Workload Impact: Staff and consulting time for the review of the application will
be coded to the application escrow.
III. Comprehensive Plan Impact: The proposed uses are consistent with the B-3 (Highway
Business) District zoning designation for the project site.
PLANNING COMMISSION REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION
The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed ordinance and held a public hearing on the
item during its regular meeting on January 7, 2025.
Staff noted that the applicant has submitted a revised plan, which was provided to the Planning
Commission, with a copy available for the public. The revised site plan addresses comments
related to landscaping and parking.
During their discussion, the Commission inquired as to the minimum number of accessible
stalls. Staff confirmed and noted that the site plans illustrate accessible stalls, which will also be
reviewed by the Building Department for code compliance. The Commission also confirmed the
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
15 employee and customer spaces required by code is based on the total square footage of the
building. Staff confirmed and noted the accessible stalls are included in the required number of
spaces per code. It was further noted that the City's zoning ordinance requires unloading of
vehicles to occur on site.
Commissioner Kothenbeutel noted he had visited the applicant's site in Buffalo, which he
indicated was a well -kept site.
There was no public to address the Commission on the item.
Following discussion, the Commission recommended approval unanimously.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommend approval of the use of the site for Vehicle Sales, although details and site plan
modifications for parking and landscaping are required to ensure consistency with the CUP
provisions of the City's zoning regulations. If the applicant proposes to avoid any of these
requirements, a separate variance application and analysis would be required. As such, any
recommendation for approval of the CUP should be accompanied by the conditions identified
in Exhibit Z.

Dear City Planning Department,
I am writing to submit a formal application for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for the purpose
of establishing a used auto sales business at 216 Sandberg Drive, Monticello. I am seeking
approval for the operation of an auto dealership on the proposed site, in accordance with local
zoning regulations.
1.Overview of Proposed Business
The proposed business will engage in the sale of used vehicles, at the location of 216 Sanberg
Drive, Monticello. The site will serve as a retail operation with the following key features:
• Display and sale of vehicles
• Customer service and administrative offices
Our primary objective is to provide high -quality, competitively priced vehicles and excellent
customer service.
2. Compliance with Zoning Ordinances
I have reviewed the current zoning ordinances and can confirm that the proposed business
complies with the applicable zoning requirements for the B3 in which the property is located.
However, since auto sales are a conditional use in this district, a Conditional Use Permit is
required to proceed.
As part of the application, we will ensure that the following requirements are met:
Adequate Parking: The site will provide sufficient parking for both customers and
employees, adhering to the city's standards for parking requirements.
Vehicle Display Areas: Vehicles will be displayed in an orderly fashion, with clear
boundaries, and in a way that minimizes any potential disruption to traffic or pedestrians.
Vehicles will be displayed facing Chelsea Road and Highway 25.
Hours of Operation: The business will operate from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, Monday
through Saturday, with closed hours on Sunday.
3. Traffic and Safety Considerations
We understand that traffic flow and safety are a priority for the City of Monticello. The proposed
location is easily accessible and provides sufficient space for customers and vehicles. To
minimize congestion and ensure safe access:
Access Points: The site will utilize the existing entry/exit points, and no new curb cuts
will be required.
5. Conclusion and Request for Approval
2F. (6)
We respectfully request that the City Planning Department approve our application for a
Conditional Use Permit to operate an auto sales business at 216 Sanberg Drive, Monticello. We
are committed to complying with all applicable city codes and zoning regulations, and we will
ensure that the business contributes to the vitality of the neighborhood.
Please find attached all necessary documents
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your positive response and to
working with the City of Monticello to bring this business to fruition.
Sincerely,
Mohammad Awad

21. Consideration of adopting Resolution 2025-10 for public right-of-wav acquisition for
the Golf Course Road Trail Project

ACTION REQUESTED
Motion to approve Resolution 2025-10 for public right-of-way acquisition for the Golf Course
Road Trail Project.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION
December 12, 2022: Adopted Resolution 2022-136 authorizing submission of Transportation
Alternatives (TA) grant application and Resolution 2022-137 authorizing
maintenance of constructed improvements.
November 27, 2023: Approved a contract with Stonebrooke Engineering, Inc. for CSAH 39 Trail
Improvements in the amount of $285,200.
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
The City of Monticello has been seeking grant funds to construct high -priority improvements
identified in the 2019 Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Plan. The grants are crucial for completing
these impactful safety improvements, but they result in additional federal and/or state
requirements to maintain eligibility and receive the funds. To satisfy applicable requirements
for the Golf Course Road Trail Improvements, staff requests City Council consider contingency
planning to meet a critical project deadline.
Monticello was awarded $800,000 through a Transportation Alternatives (TA) grant to
construct a pathway section along the north side of Golf Course Road/CSAH 39 between Elm
Street and Chelsea Road. The scope was later reduced to the section between Elm Street and
7tn Street to due bridge improvements that would be required if the pathway crossed 1-94 to
get to Chelsea Road. MnDOT approved the change in scope and allowed Monticello to maintain
the full funding level split between Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 ($558,488) and FY 2026 ($241,512).
Also impacting the scope of this project was an update to Wright County's Transportation Plan
which now shows this section of Golf Course Road/CSAH 39 being converted into a 3-lane
section that includes a center two-way left turn lane. This turn lane will allow safer access to
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
the commercial and residential driveways located along the roadway corridor. However, the
addition of the two-way left turn lane resulted in the need for acquiring additional right-of-way
to accommodate the pathway.
Right-of-way acquisition is required from five parcels. In August 2024, the City contracted with
Evergreen Land Services to complete Minimum Damage Acquisition (MDA) summaries which
are allowed to be used for acquisitions under $25,000 with federal funding. When MDAs were
completed in December, two parcel acquisition amounts were over the $25,000 threshold. As a
result, the City Attorney recommended full appraisals for all five parcels. The full appraisals
resulted in adjusted acquisition amounts ranging from $2,300 to $25,900 for a total acquisition
cost of $73,100 for the five parcels.
The acquisitions need to be completed this spring to allow the project to receive MnDOT
approval for construction authorization by June 1, a requirement for the project's federal
funding. Evergreen Land Services will continue their work to acquire the right-of-way needed,
but if City Council wants to ensure the project can proceed on the required timeline, eminent
domain is the alternative option. However, the timeline for using eminent domain necessitates
Council to authorize its use as soon as possible to complete the process prior to the June 1
deadline for construction authorization. Staff and project consultants will continue to seek
acquisition without use of eminent domain, but Council authorization maintains its use as a
contingency if needed.
Alternatively, City Council has the option to decline the use of eminent domain for this project.
If right-of-way cannot be acquired from the five properties, the grant funding would be
returned to MnDOT and Monticello would not proceed with construction. The project would
remain part of the SRTS Plan and would likely be added to the Capital Improvement Plan for
future completion at the City's cost.
Currently, Evergreen Land Services has received responses from two of the five property
owners for the right-of-way purchase. With the completion of the appraisals, formal offers are
being sent out. Staff and the acquisition consultant will continue to reach out to property
owners to reach an agreement for the acquisition with the goal of securing easements without
the use of eminent domain.
Budget Impact: The 2025 Budget includes $1,600,000 for this project. A 95%
construction cost estimate is anticipated soon, 30% construction cost estimate was
$1, 291,800.
II. Staff Workload Impact: Staff will be involved throughout the process. Staff will take
more of an active role in right-of-way acquisition which is expected at approximately 40
hours.
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
III. Comprehensive Plan Impact: The 2040 Comprehensive Plan highlights the importance
of the pathway and trail system with a goal to have a complete and connected system of
pathways, trails and sidewalks. This pathway will provide a connection to the
downtown pathway system along Elm Street to 7th Street and will also complete the first
phase of a pathway connection to the Bertram Chain of Lakes Regional Park.
STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff support the construction of the pathway along this section of roadway as part of the SRTS
Plan and building a connected community as outlined in the Comprehensive Plan. In addition,
the grant funding is a valuable resource to supplement local funding. Maintaining the option of
eminent domain assures the project can be completed; however, Council can decline to use this
tool, and staff will pursue other options.

Motion to adopt Resolution 2025-11 Approving Amendments to the Revenue Notes (Swan
River Montessori Charter School Project), Series 2017A and Series 2017B and Authorizing the
Reissuance Thereof.
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
July 10, 2017: Adopted Resolution 2017-38 authorizing the issuance, sale and delivery
of revenue Notes and approving the form of and authorizing the
execution and delivery of the Notes and related documents for the SRCS
Building Company (Swan River Montessori Charter School)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
In 2017, the City issued conduit revenue bonds for SRCS Building Company (lessor to Swan River
Montessori Charter School) through Sherburne State Bank. Under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, conduit revenue bonds or notes give the borrower access to tax exempt financing, so the
borrower realizes lower interest costs and the issuers achieve a public purpose, in this case the
preservation of existing educational facilities. This reduced borrowing cost enables nonprofit
entities to provide their services more cost effectively. Conduit financing is a common means of
obtaining necessary financing for all nonprofit entities and supports projects such as schools,
hospitals, universities, and affordable housing.
The SRCS Building Company used the proceeds of the Series 2017A and 2017B Notes (the "2017
Notes") to
• refinance the acquisition, renovation, construction, and equipping of the school facilities
• finance certain capital improvements to school facilities
• pay the costs of issuance of the notes
City Council Agenda: 1/27/2025
The Borrower has requested certain amendments to the 2017 Notes including an interest rate
adjustment in the Borrower's repayment to Sherburne State Bank. The amendments to the
2017 Notes are considered a "reissuance" under the Tax Code and are treated as a refunding
for tax purposes requiring that the city hold a new public hearing
As conduit revenue bonds, the Series 2017A and 2017B Notes, which mature in 2037, do not
constitute a general or moral obligation of the City and will not be secured by or payable from
any property or assets of the City (other than the interests of the City in the Loan Agreement)
and are not secured by any taxing power of the City. The 2017 Notes are payable solely from
revenues and security provided by SRCS Building Company.
The amendment will apply toward the City's $10 million allowable bank qualified debt issuance
in calendar year 2025; however, the City does not plan to issue any other debt during the year,
so there is no impact to the City. Additionally, the City is required by the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) to include a footnote within the annual audited financial
statements disclosing the existence, nature, and outstanding balance of the notes on December
31.
Budget Impact: None. All costs of the amendment are paid for by the Borrower (Swan
River).

City of Monticello
505 Walnut Street
Monticello, MN 55362
Re: Resolution approving the reissuance of the conduit revenue notes issued for the benefit of Swan
River Montessori Charter School
Dear Sarah,
On October 2, 2017, the City of Monticello (the "City") issued its Educational Facilities Revenue Note
(Swan River Montessori Charter School Project), Series 2017A (the "Series 2017A Note"), in the original
aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 and its Educational Facilities Revenue Note (Swan River
Montessori Charter School Project), Series 2017B (the "Series 2017B Note," and together with the Series
2017A Note, the "2017 Notes"). The City loaned the proceeds of the Series 2017 Notes to SRCS
Building Company, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (the `Borrower"), pursuant to a Loan Agreement,
dated as of October 2, 2017 (the "Loan Agreement"), between the City and the Borrower, to redeem and
prepay outstanding taxable debt of the Borrower which previously financed the acquisition, renovation,
construction and equipping of the public charter school buildings and related facilities located 500 and
503 Maple Street in the City (the "Project"). The Project is owned by the Borrower and is leased to Swan
River Montessori Charter School, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation.
The Series 2017 Notes were sold to Sherburne State Bank, a Minnesota banking corporation (the
"Lender"). The City assigned its interest in the Loan Agreement (except certain reserved rights) to the
Lender pursuant to an Assignment of Loan Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2017, between the Issuer,
the Company, and the Lender. In addition, the Series 2017A Notes are secured by (i) a Combination
Mortgage, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Fixture Financing Statement, dated as of
October 2, 2017, by the Company in favor of the Lender relating to the Series 2017A Note; (ii) a
Combination Mortgage, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Fixture Financing Statement,
dated as of October 2, 2017, by the Company in favor of the Lender relating to the Series 2017B Note;
(iii) an Assignment of Lease, dated October 2, 2017, from the Company to the Lender and consented to
by the School; (iv) a Pledge and Covenant Agreement, dated as of October 2, 2017, between the School
and the Lender; and (v) a Guaranty, dated October 2, 2017, by the School in favor of Lender.
The Lender has agreed to amend certain terms of the Series 2017 Notes for the benefit of the Borrower,
including changes to the interest rate on the Series 2017 Notes. Such amendments are considered to be a
significant modification of the Series 2017 Notes and will result in a "reissuance" of the Series 2017
Notes for tax purposes pursuant to Section 1.1001-3 of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the
MN 190-182-1002130.v 1
3A. (2)
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). For tax purposes, the Series 2017 Notes will
be treated as being refunded on the effective date of the amendments. In accordance with Section 147(f)
of the Code, the City is required to hold a public hearing to approve the reissuance of the Series 2017
Notes.
Enclosed is a resolution to be considered by the City Council following the public hearing on January 27,
2025. The resolution approves the amendments to the Series 2017 Notes and the reissuance of the Series
2017 Notes as well as the execution and delivery of amended and restated forms of the Series 2017 Notes,
incorporating the amendments, and an information return to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service for
Series 2017 Notes.
The Series 2017 Notes are proposed to be reissued as a tax-exempt obligation, the interest on which is not
includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes. Tax-exempt obligations are usually not
eligible for purchase by banks and other financial institutions, but Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), permits each issuer of tax-exempt obligations to
designate up to $10,000,000 of tax-exempt bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" (sometimes
referred to as "bank -qualified bonds") that are eligible for purchase by banks and other financial
institutions. In order to issue bank -qualified bonds, the issuer must not expect to issue more than
$10,000,000 of bonds (other than private activity bonds that are not qualified 501(c)(3) bonds) in a
calendar year. The Borrower has requested that the City designate the reissued Series 2017 Notes as
qualified tax-exempt obligations for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. The Series 2017 Notes,
when reissued, will count towards the $10,000,000 of bank -qualified bonds the City may issue in 2025.
The Series 2017 Notes are conduit revenue bonds and will continue to be secured solely by the revenues
derived from the Loan Agreement and from other security originally provided by the Borrower in
connection with the original issuance of the Series 2017 Notes. The Series 2017 Notes will not constitute
a general or moral obligation of the City and will not be secured by or payable from any property or assets
of the City (other than the interests of the City in the Loan Agreement) and will not be secured by any
taxing power of the City. The Series 2017 Notes will not be subject to any debt limitation imposed on the
City and will not impact the City's credit rating.
Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company will pay all of the City's fees and expenses.
Please contact me with any questions you may have prior to the City Council meeting.

hereby promises to pay to the order of Sherburne State Bank, a Minnesota banking corporation, in
Minneapolis, Minnesota, its successors or registered assigns (the "Lender"), from the source and in the
manner hereinafter provided, the principal sum of ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000), or so much
thereof as has been advanced and remains unpaid from time to time (the "Principal Balance"), with interest
thereon from the date hereof until paid or otherwise discharged as set forth in Section 1 below, in any coin
or currency which at the time or times of payment is legal tender for the payment of public or private debts
in the United States of America, in accordance with the terms hereinafter set forth.
1. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid to the Lender commencing on October
20, 2017 and shall be paid on the 20t1i day of each month thereafter until September 20, 2037 (the "Maturity

the interest rate then in effect, over the remaining term of this Note. Payments made with respect to this
Note shall be applied first to amounts due and owing to the Lender which are neither principal nor interest,
next to interest due, and thereafter to reduction of the principal balance of the Note.
2. Commencing on the date of this Note and continuing through 20, 2030 (the
"First Adjustment Date") interest shall accrue at a rate of 5.25% per annum.
3. On the First Adjustment Date, the interest rate on this Note shall be adjusted and interest
shall accrue on this Note from and after the First Adjustment Date until October 20, 20_ (the "Second
Adjustment Date" and hereinafter, the First Adjustment Date and the Second Adjustment are each an
"Adjustment Date") at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate minus fifty basis points (.50%) (the
"Interest Rate Formula"). For purposes hereof, the term "Prime Rate" means that rate of interest publicly

the "Prime Rate" is not published by the Wall Street Journal on the Business Day prior to the Adjustment
Date, then a comparable interest rate selected by the Lender and available on the Business Day prior to the
Adjustment Date.

4. On the Second Adjustment Date, the interest rate on this Note shall be adjusted and interest
shall accrue on this Note from and after the Second Adjustment Date until the Maturity Date at a rate per
annum equal to the Interest Rate Formula.
5. All adjustments to the interest rate of this Note shall be made and become effective as of
each Adjustment Date and the interest rate as adjusted shall remain in effect through and including the day
immediately preceding the Adjustment Date or the Maturity Date, as applicable. On the First Adjustment
Date and the Second Adjustment Date, the monthly payments of principal and interest shall be recomputed
so that the monthly payments are sufficient to fully amortize this Note over the remaining term of this Note.
6. In any event, the payments hereunder shall be sufficient to pay all principal and interest
due, as such principal and interest becomes due, and to pay any premium or service charge, at maturity,
upon prepayment, or otherwise. Interest shall be computed on 360/365 basis (that is, by applying the ratio
of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal
balance is outstanding).
7. Any monthly payment of principal or interest not made within ten (10) days of the due date
shall be subject to a late payment fee equal to five percent (5%) of the monthly payment (including any
final payment). The late payment fees shall apply individually to all payments past due. This provision
shall not be deemed to excuse a late payment or be deemed a waiver of any other rights the Lender may
have, including the right to declare the entire unpaid principal and interest immediately due and payable.
8. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and irrespective of whether Lender exercises
its option to accelerate the maturity of this Note by reason of such Event of Default, or if all advances made
by the Lender and all interest accrued thereon, have not been paid on or before the Maturity Date, all
amounts due under this Note shall thereafter bear interest while such default continues at the rate of eighteen
percent (18.00%) per annum greater than the then current interest rate. No delay or omission on the part of
the Lender in exercising any right hereunder or under any other instrument now or hereafter given to
evidence or secure the indebtedness evidenced hereby, shall operate as a waiver of such right, or any other
right hereunder, or under any of said agreements.
9. All payments and prepayments made hereon shall, at the option of the Lender, be applied
in the following order: (i) to any costs of collection; (ii) to any late payment fees and service charges;
(iii) to any prepayment premium; (iv) to accrued interest on this Note (including any default interest); and
(v) to reduction of the Principal Balance. If any advances made by the Lender due to the occurrence of an
Event of Default hereunder or under the terms of any instrument securing the Note are not repaid on
demand, any moneys received, at the option of the Lender, may first be applied to repay such advances and
the balance, if any, shall be applied on account of any installments then due.
10. Principal and interest and premium, if any, due hereunder shall be payable at the office of
the Lender as set forth in the attached Note register, or at such other place as the Lender may designate in
writing.
11. This Note was issued by the Issuer, along with the proceeds of the Educational Facilities
Revenue Note (Swan River Montessori Charter School Project), Series 2017B (the "Series 2017B Note"),
dated October 2, 2017, issued by the Issuer in the original aggregate principal amount of $1,225,000, to
provide funds pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated October 2, 2017 (the "Loan Agreement"), between the
Issuer and SRCS Building Company, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (the "Company"), for a project, as
defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.153, subdivision 2(b). The proceeds of the Notes will be used
for the purposes of (i) redeeming and prepaying outstanding taxable debt of the Company which previously
financed the acquisition, renovation, construction and equipping of the public charter school buildings and
2
MN 190-182-1002439.v2
3A. (6)
related facilities located at 500 and 503 Maple Street in the City of Monticello, Minnesota (the "Bond
Financed Facilities"); (ii) financing certain capital improvements to the Bond Financed Facilities; and (iii)
paying a portion of the costs of issuance of Notes. The School Facilities will be owned by the Company
and will be leased to the Swan River Montessori Charter School, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (the
"School"), for the operation of an elementary school. This Note is further issued pursuant to and in full
compliance with the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota, particularly Minnesota Statutes,
Sections 469.152 through 469.1655, as amended, and pursuant to a resolution adopted by the City Council
of the Issuer on July 10, 2017 (the "Resolution").
12. The loan repayments to be made by the Company under the Loan Agreement will be fixed
so as to produce revenue sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note when
due. The City will assign its rights to the basic payments and certain other rights under the Loan Agreement
to the Lender pursuant to the terms of an Assignment of Loan Agreement, to be dated October 2, 2017 (the
"Assignment of Loan Agreement"), between the City, the Company, and the Lender. The Company's
obligation to make loan repayments on the Series 2017A Note under the Loan Agreement will be secured
by: (i) Combination Mortgage, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Fixture Financing Statement,
dated October 2, 2017 (the "Mortgage") relating to the Series 2017A Note; (ii) an Assignment of Lease,
dated October 2, 2017 (the "Assignment of Lease"), from the Company to the Lender and consented to by
the School; and (iii) a Pledge and Covenant Agreement, dated October 2, 2017 (the "School Pledge
Agreement"), between the School and the Lender. (The Loan Agreement, Mortgage, Assignment of Lease
and School Pledge Agreement are from time to time referred to herein individually as a "Loan Document"
and collectively as the "Loan Documents.")
13. The Issuer, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby waives demand, presentment,
protest and notice of dishonor; and to the extent permitted by law, the Lender may extend interest and/or
principal of or any service charge or premium due on this Note, including the Maturity Date, or release any
part or parts of the property and interest subject to the Mortgage or to any other security document from the
same, all without notice to or consent of any party liable hereon or thereon and without releasing any such
party from such liability and whether or not as a result thereof the interest on the Note is no longer exempt
from the federal or state income tax. In no event, however, may the Maturity Date of the Note be extended
beyond thirty (30) years from the date hereof.
14. Subject to the limitations in this Section, this Note is subject to prepayment in whole or in
part in immediately available funds on any date at the option of the Company. To exercise this option, the
Company must give written notice in the name of the Issuer to the Lender not less than thirty (30) days
prior to the date fixed for prepayment; provided that the Lender may waive or provide alternative notice
requirements, no more restrictive than those set forth above. At the date fixed for prepayment, funds must
be paid to the Lender at its registered address. If the Principal Balance of the Note is reduced by prepayment
from monies from the Company's excess cash, the prepayment price is equal to the outstanding Principal
Balance of this Note to be prepaid plus accrued interest; and without prepayment penalty; provided,
however, that if the prepayment of this Note is made from the proceeds of a loan from a financial institution
other than the Lender, the prepayment price shall include a penalty equal to 1.00% of the outstanding
Principal Balance of the Note to be refinanced will be required.
In the event of any partial prepayment of this Note, the Lender shall apply any such prepayment in
the order described in Section 6 hereof. Except as provided in this Section, the monthly payments due
under Section 3 hereof shall continue to be due and payable in full until the entire Principal Balance, accrued
interest and any premium due on this Note have been paid.
15. Upon a Determination of Taxability, as defined in the Loan Agreement, this Note shall
convert to a taxable obligation and the interest rate for interest accruing from the Date of Taxability, as
u11HL'Z13F SIGIMMY-12 d
3A. (7)
defined in the Loan Agreement, shall be adjusted to the then coupon rate multiplied by 1.50 (the "Taxable
Rate"). Any interest accruing from the Date of Taxability which is due as a result of the retroactive interest
rate adjustment shall be payable on the first day of the following month along with the regularly scheduled
principal payment and interest accruing from the previous payment date at the Taxable Rate.
16. Subject to certain limitations set forth herein, this Note is only transferable upon the books
of the Issuer at the office of the City Administrator, by the Lender in person or by its agent duly authorized
in writing, at the Lender's expense, upon surrender hereof together with a written instrument of transfer
satisfactory to the City Administrator, duly executed by the Lender or its duly authorized agent. Upon such
transfer the City Administrator will note the date of registration and the name and address of the new
registered owner in the registration blank appearing below. The Issuer may deem and treat the person in
whose name the Note is last registered upon the books of the Issuer with such registration noted on the
Note, as the absolute owner hereof, whether or not overdue, for the purpose of receiving payment of or on
the account of the Principal Balance, redemption price or interest and for all other purposes, and all such
payments so made to the Lender or upon his order shall be valid and effective to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon the Note to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, and the Issuer shall not be affected by any
notice to the contrary.

a debt of the Issuer within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation, are not payable from or
a charge upon any funds other than the revenues and proceeds pledged to the payment thereof, and do not

referred to shall be subject at all times to the availability of revenues or other funds furnished for such
purpose in accordance with the Loan Agreement, sufficient to pay all costs of such performance or the
enforcement thereof.
20. If an Event of Default (as that term is defined in any Loan Document) shall occur, then the
Lender shall have the right and option, among other things, to declare the Principal Balance and accrued
interest thereon immediately due and payable, whereupon the same, plus any premiums or service charges,
shall be due and payable, but solely from sums made available under the Loan Documents. Failure to
exercise such option at any time shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise the same at any
subsequent time.

Final Maturity Date: September 20, 2037
FOR VALUE RECEIVED the City of Monticello, Wright County, Minnesota (the "Issuer"),
hereby promises to pay to the order of Sherburne State Bank, a Minnesota banking corporation, in
Minneapolis, Minnesota, its successors or registered assigns (the "Lender"), from the source and in the
manner hereinafter provided, the principal sum of ONE MILLION TWO HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE
THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,225,000), or so much thereof as has been advanced and remains unpaid from
time to time (the "Principal Balance"), with interest thereon from the date hereof until paid or otherwise
discharged as set forth in Section 1 below, in any coin or currency which at the time or times of payment is
legal tender for the payment of public or private debts in the United States of America, in accordance with
the terms hereinafter set forth.
1. Principal of and interest on this Note shall be paid to the Lender commencing on October
20, 2017 and shall be paid on the 20t1i day of each month thereafter until September 20, 2037 (the "Maturity
Date") in such amounts as are required to fully amortize the Note, together with accrued interest thereon at
the interest rate then in effect, over the remaining term of this Note. Payments made with respect to this
Note shall be applied first to amounts due and owing to the Lender which are neither principal nor interest,
next to interest due, and thereafter to reduction of the principal balance of the Note.
2. Commencing on the date of this Note and continuing through 20, 2030 (the
"First Adjustment Date") interest shall accrue at a rate of 5.25% per annum.
3. On the First Adjustment Date, the interest rate on this Note shall be adjusted and interest
shall accrue on this Note from and after the First Adjustment Date until October 20, 20_ (the "Second
Adjustment Date" and hereinafter, the First Adjustment Date and the Second Adjustment are each an
"Adjustment Date") at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate minus fifty basis points (.50%) (the
"Interest Rate Formula"). For purposes hereof, the term "Prime Rate" means that rate of interest publicly
announced in the Wall Street Journal as the "Prime Rate," as the same may change from time to time. If
the "Prime Rate" is not published by the Wall Street Journal on the Business Day prior to the Adjustment
Date, then a comparable interest rate selected by the Lender and available on the Business Day prior to the
Adjustment Date

4. On the Second Adjustment Date, the interest rate on this Note shall be adjusted and interest
shall accrue on this Note from and after the Second Adjustment Date until the Maturity Date at a rate per
annum equal to the Interest Rate Formula.
5. All adjustments to the interest rate of this Note shall be made and become effective as of
each Adjustment Date and the interest rate as adjusted shall remain in effect through and including the day
immediately preceding the Adjustment Date or the Maturity Date, as applicable. On the First Adjustment
Date and the Second Adjustment Date, the monthly payments of principal and interest shall be recomputed
so that the monthly payments are sufficient to fully amortize this Note over the remaining term of this Note.
6. In any event, the payments hereunder shall be sufficient to pay all principal and interest
due, as such principal and interest becomes due, and to pay any premium or service charge, at maturity,
upon prepayment, or otherwise. Interest shall be computed on 365/360 basis (that is, by applying the ratio
of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal
balance is outstanding).
7. Any monthly payment of principal or interest not made within ten (10) days of the due date
shall be subject to a late payment fee equal to five percent (5%) of the monthly payment (including any
final payment). The late payment fees shall apply individually to all payments past due. This provision
shall not be deemed to excuse a late payment or be deemed a waiver of any other rights the Lender may
have, including the right to declare the entire unpaid principal and interest immediately due and payable.
8. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and irrespective of whether Lender exercises
its option to accelerate the maturity of this Note by reason of such Event of Default, or if all advances made
by the Lender and all interest accrued thereon, have not been paid on or before the Maturity Date, all
amounts due under this Note shall thereafter bear interest while such default continues at the rate of eighteen
percent (18.00%) per annum greater than the then current interest rate. No delay or omission on the part of
the Lender in exercising any right hereunder or under any other instrument now or hereafter given to
evidence or secure the indebtedness evidenced hereby, shall operate as a waiver of such right, or any other
right hereunder, or under any of said agreements.
9. All payments and prepayments made hereon shall, at the option of the Lender, be applied
in the following order: (i) to any costs of collection; (ii) to any late payment fees and service charges;
(iii) to any prepayment premium; (iv) to accrued interest on this Note (including any default interest); and
(v) to reduction of the Principal Balance. If any advances made by the Lender due to the occurrence of an
Event of Default hereunder or under the terms of any instrument securing the Note are not repaid on
demand, any moneys received, at the option of the Lender, may first be applied to repay such advances and
the balance, if any, shall be applied on account of any installments then due.
10. Principal and interest and premium, if any, due hereunder shall be payable at the office of
the Lender as set forth in the attached Note register, or at such other place as the Lender may designate in
writing.
11. This Note was issued by the Issuer, along with the proceeds of the Educational Facilities
Revenue Note (Swan River Montessori Charter School Project), Series 2017A (the "Series 2017A Note"),
dated October 2, 2017, issued by the Issuer in the original aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000, to
provide funds pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated October 2, 2017 (the "Loan Agreement"), between the
Issuer and SRCS Building Company, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (the "Company"), for a project, as
defined in Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.153, subdivision 2(b). The proceeds of the Notes will be used
for the purposes of (i) redeeming and prepaying outstanding taxable debt of the Company which previously
financed the acquisition, renovation, construction and equipping of the public charter school buildings and
2
MN 190-182-1002437.v2
3A. (15)
related facilities located at 500 and 503 Maple Street in the City of Monticello, Minnesota (the "Bond
Financed Facilities"); (ii) financing certain capital improvements to the Bond Financed Facilities; and (iii)
paying a portion of the costs of issuance of the Notes. The School Facilities will be owned by the Company
and will be leased to the Swan River Montessori Charter School, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (the
"School"), for the operation of an elementary school,. This Note is further issued pursuant to and in full
compliance with the Constitution and laws of the State of Minnesota, particularly Minnesota Statutes,
Sections 469.152 through 469.1655, as amended, and pursuant to a resolution adopted by the City Council
of the Issuer on July 10, 2017 (the "Resolution").
12. The loan repayments to be made by the Company under the Loan Agreement will be fixed
so as to produce revenue sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note when

to the Lender pursuant to the terms of an Assignment of Loan Agreement, to be dated October 2, 2017 (the
"Assignment of Loan Agreement"), between the City, the Company, and the Lender. The Company's
obligation to make loan repayments on the Series 2017B Note under the Loan Agreement will be secured
by: (i) Combination Mortgage, Security Agreement, Assignment of Rents and Fixture Financing Statement,
dated October 2, 2017 (the "Mortgage") relating to the Series 2017B Note; (ii) an Assignment of Lease,
dated October 2, 2017 (the "Assignment of Lease"), from the Company to the Lender and consented to by
the School; and (iii) a Pledge and Covenant Agreement, dated October 2, 2017 (the "School Pledge
Agreement"), between the School and the Lender. (The Loan Agreement, Mortgage, Assignment of Lease
and School Pledge Agreement are from time to time referred to herein individually as a "Loan Document"
and collectively as the "Loan Documents.")
13. The Issuer, for itself, its successors and assigns, hereby waives demand, presentment,
protest and notice of dishonor; and to the extent permitted by law, the Lender may extend interest and/or
principal of or any service charge or premium due on this Note, including the Maturity Date, or release any
part or parts of the property and interest subject to the Mortgage or to any other security document from the
same, all without notice to or consent of any party liable hereon or thereon and without releasing any such
party from such liability and whether or not as a result thereof the interest on the Note is no longer exempt
from the federal or state income tax. In no event, however, may the Maturity Date of the Note be extended
beyond thirty (30) years from the date hereof.
14. Subject to the limitations in this Section, this Note is subject to prepayment in whole or in
part in immediately available funds on any date at the option of the Company. To exercise this option, the
Company must give written notice in the name of the Issuer to the Lender not less than thirty (30) days
prior to the date fixed for prepayment; provided that the Lender may waive or provide alternative notice
requirements, no more restrictive than those set forth above. At the date fixed for prepayment, funds must
be paid to the Lender at its registered address. If the Principal Balance of the Note is reduced by prepayment
from monies from the Company's excess cash, the prepayment price is equal to the outstanding Principal
Balance of this Note to be prepaid plus accrued interest; and without prepayment penalty; provided,
however, that if the prepayment of this Note is made from the proceeds of a loan from a financial institution
other than the Lender, the prepayment price shall include a penalty equal to 1.00% of the outstanding
Principal Balance of the Note to be refinanced will be required.
In the event of any partial prepayment of this Note, the Lender shall apply any such prepayment in
the order described in Section 6 hereof. Except as provided in this Section, the monthly payments due
under Section 3 hereof shall continue to be due and payable in full until the entire Principal Balance, accrued
interest and any premium due on this Note have been paid.

convert to a taxable obligation and the interest rate for interest accruing from the Date of Taxability, as
i�U1115US1111 zx Tyra
3A. (16)
defined in the Loan Agreement, shall be adjusted to the then coupon rate multiplied by 1.50 (the "Taxable
Rate"). Any interest accruing from the Date of Taxability which is due as a result of the retroactive interest
rate adjustment shall be payable on the first day of the following month along with the regularly scheduled
principal payment and interest accruing from the previous payment date at the Taxable Rate.
16. Subject to certain limitations set forth herein, this Note is only transferable upon the books
of the Issuer at the office of the City Administrator, by the Lender in person or by its agent duly authorized
in writing, at the Lender's expense, upon surrender hereof together with a written instrument of transfer
satisfactory to the City Administrator, duly executed by the Lender or its duly authorized agent. Upon such
transfer the City Administrator will note the date of registration and the name and address of the new
registered owner in the registration blank appearing below. The Issuer may deem and treat the person in
whose name the Note is last registered upon the books of the Issuer with such registration noted on the
Note, as the absolute owner hereof, whether or not overdue, for the purpose of receiving payment of or on
the account of the Principal Balance, redemption price or interest and for all other purposes, and all such
payments so made to the Lender or upon his order shall be valid and effective to satisfy and discharge the
liability upon the Note to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, and the Issuer shall not be affected by any
notice to the contrary.

Lender shall have the right and option, among other things, to declare the Principal Balance and accrued
interest thereon immediately due and payable, whereupon the same, plus any premiums or service charges,
