City Council Minutes 06-22-1992MINUTES
REGULAR MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL
Monday, June 22, 1992 - 7 p.m.
Members Present: Ken Maus, Shirley Anderson, Clint Herbst, Brad
Fyle
Members Absent: Dan Blonigen
2. Approval of minutes.
It was noted that item #7, paragraph #2, of the June 8, 1992,
minutes should be amended by changing the 1992 to 1982.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to approve the minutes of the regular
meeting held June 8, 1992, as amended, and the special meeting
held June 15, 1992. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Citizens comments/petitions, requests, and complaints.
None forthcoming.
4. Public hearing for Sidewalk Improvement Project 92-08SW.
Mayor Maus opened the public hearing.
No public comment on the project was forthcoming. The public
hearing was closed.
John Simola described the sidewalk improvement project. He
noted that the project involves sidewalk along 1) the south
side of Hillside Cemetery between Highway 25 and Cedar Street,
2) the east side of Cedar Street from 7th Street to the Cedar
Crest Apartments, and 3 ) County Road 75 between the Monticello
High School pedestrian crossing to the hospital. Notices were
sent to affected property owners based upon a 25% assessment
cost, which equals $4.27 per lineal foot of street frontage.
Simola noted that the sidewalk bids came in approximately 7%
lower than expected, which places our current estimate for
assessments at approximately $3.97 per lineal foot.
5. Review of bids and consideration of award for Sidewalk
Improvement Project 92-08SW.
John Simola reported that the estimated cost of the project
was $20,582 for contract work and $8,000 for work by the
public works department bringing the total estimated project
cost to $28,582.
Simola noted that bids for the contracted portion of the work
have been received; and based upon the bid tabulation, the low
bidder is Schneider's Concrete Construction from Little Falls
for a total bid of $18,553.
Page 1
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
Simola recommended that the City Council award the project to
Schneider's Concrete Construction for $18,553, which is $2,000
under estimate.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Shirley Anderson to award the sidewalk project to
Schneider's Construction of Little Falls in the amount of
$18,553. Voting in favor: Brad Fyle, Shirley Anderson, Ken
Maus. Opposed: Brad Fyle. In opposing the motion, Brad Fyle
noted that the sidewalk project should have been put on hold
this year.
6. Consideration of a resolution authorizing and awarding the
sale of $705,000 G.O. bonds, Series 1992A, for the Cardinal
Hills second phase and School Boulevard improvement projects.
A representative from Springsted, Inc., reviewed the bids on
the sale of the $705,000 G.O. improvement bonds. He reported
that nine financial institutions submitted bids, with the low
bid coming from First Bank Systems Investment Services at a
net interest rate of 5.2525% and a net interest cost of
$228,027.08. Council was informed that Springsted recommends
that the City award the bid to First Bank Investment Services,
Inc.
After discussion, a motion was made by Brad Fyle and seconded
by Clint Herbst to adopt a resolution authorizing and awarding
the sale of the $705,000 G.O. improvement bonds, Series 1992A,
to First Bank Systems Investment Services, Inc. Motion
carried unanimously. SEE RESOLUTION 92-17.
7. Consideration of accepting the 1992 Audit Report for the City
of Monticello.
Rick Borden and Kim Lillehaug of Gruys, Borden, Carlson &
Associates provided a brief overview of the 1991 Audit Report.
Ken Maus asked if the computer system can save auditing
expenses by providing reports now compiled by the auditor.
Rick Borden noted that the City computer operation is well
organized and the improved maintenance of financial data and
reporting has already created a savings for the City. He
noted that it is possible to reduce the audit expense through
creation of reports that now must be compiled by the auditor.
Once these reports are designed, then the City could possibly
save as much as $2,000 on audit expenses.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Brad Fyle to accept the audit report as prepared.
Motion carried unanimously.

Council Minutes - 6/22/92
8. Consideration of an ordinance amendment amending the zoning
map by rezoning Thomas Park subdivision and adjacent unplatted
parcel from B-2 (limited commercial) to I-1 (light
industrial). Applicant, City of Monticello Planning
Commission.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill informed Council that the
proposed rezoning is based on the request submitted by the
owner of Monti Motors, Pat Townsend, and the owner of Hoglund
Bus Company, Wayne Hoglund. Both expressed an interest in
utilizing their property for sales and storage. In order for
Hoglund and Townsend to lawfully use their property for
outside sales and storage, they need a zoning ordinance
amendment which would change the zoning designation from B-2
(limited commercial) to I-1 (light industrial).
O'Neill went on to note that the Planning Commission
recommended that the zoning ordinance amendment be approved
because the proposed rezoning is consistent with the
neighborhood. The new I-1 area would become a logical
extension of the I-1 zoning district to the south. In
addition, the proposed rezoning is consistent with the
comprehensive plan, which shows commercial and light
industrial development in this area.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Clint Herbst to adopt an ordinance amendment
approving the rezoning of the Thomas Park area from B-2
(limited commercial) to I-1 (light industrial). Motion is
based on the finding that the proposed rezoning is consistent
with the comprehensive plan, consistent with the geography and
character of the area, and will not result in a depreciation
of adjoining land values. Motion carried unanimously.
SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 228.
9. Consideration of a conditional use request to allow open and
outdoor storage and open and outdoor sales as an accessory use
in an I-1 (light industrial) zone. Location is Lot 1,
Block 1, Thomas Park Addition in the city of Monticello.
Applicant, Monticello Boat Works. AND
A variance request to allow open and outdoor sales to be more
than the maximum 30% of gross floor of the principal use.
Applicant, Monticello Boat Works.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill reviewed the Monti Boat Works
site plan and the Planning Commission's recommendation
regarding this topic. O'Neill reviewed the regulations that
are defined by ordinance that must be met in order for the
facility to legally operate:
Page 3
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
1. The storage area must be fenced and screened from
view of residential uses.
This particular requirement does not apply, as the
storage area is not in view of a residential
district.
2. The storage must be screened from view from the
public right-of-way.
This can be accomplished by installing slats in the
existing cyclone fence.
3. The storage sales area is grassed or surfaced to
control dust.
O'Neill noted that most of the storage area is
grass covered; however, a portion of the property
directly east of the drive area is gravel surfaced.
O'Neill also noted that the site does not currently
meet the tree planting requirement. In order to
comply with the ordinance, it will be necessary for
the operator to plant 11 trees on the site.
Brad Fyle was concerned that the boat storage facility will
not upgrade the area. He recommended that the amount of
outside storage be reduced. Fyle also recommended that all
areas outside of the fenced storage area be paved.
Pat Townsend noted that the unpaved area has gravel on it, and
dust has never been a problem.
Ken Maus suggested that the gate to the storage area be moved
to become aligned with the drive area, thereby limiting
traffic on unpaved areas.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Shirley Anderson to grant the conditional use
permit subject to the following conditions:
1. The site must operate in a manner consistent with
the zoning ordinance.
2. 11 trees of a size consistent with code or 6 trees
and landscape plantings must be planted.
3. No boat sales, service, or storage in stalls
reserved for parking.
4. The parking lot shall be striped.
5. Short-term parking for repairs or sales in
unscreened areas shall be allowed.
Page 4
10.
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
6. The entry gate to the storage area shall be moved
to the west so as to be aligned with the paved
drive area.
Motion includes a variance to the requirement that the
accessory outside service sales and equipment rental connected
with the principal use is limited to 30% of the gross floor
area of the principal use. Conditional use permit approval
and variance approval are based on the finding that the
proposed use is consistent with the zoning district in which
it is located, and the use, if operated in a manner consistent
with the conditional use permit terms, will not result in
depreciation of adjoining land values. Voting in favor: Ken
Maus, Shirley Anderson, Clint Herbst. Opposed: Brad Fyle.
Consideration of approving preliminary plat of the Battle
Rapids Subdivision. Applicant, Investors Together.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill noted that City staff has
reviewed the preliminary plat and found it to be consistent
with city ordinance; however, there are a few issues that need
to be addressed prior to final plat approval. The development
plan calls for the phased development of four structures which
include a total of 14 townhomes. In the initial phase, only
one of the four structures will be constructed; however,
retaining walls and all site grading will be completed with
phase I. Phase I also includes development of only that
portion of the drive area needed to serve the initial
structure.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to approve the preliminary plat
contingent upon the following:
1. The preliminary plat should be amended to include
comments made by the City Engineer in his letter of
June 10, 1992. Final plat approval shall not be
granted until this item is complete.
2. Final plat will be contingent on completion of a
development agreement which would include the
developer providing a performance bond in an amount
equal to complete phase I site improvements as
defined by the City Engineer.
3. Final plat approval will be contingent on
preparation and recording of townhouse association
bylaws. Bylaws must be consistent with the city
ordinance governing planned unit development
bylaws.
Page 5
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
4. An easement allowing the owner of the adjacent
property to the east to use the Battle Rapids drive
area must be recorded along with the final plat.
5. Final plat approval is contingent on developer
paying City expenses in excess of preliminary plat
fee (amount not tabulated at this time).
Motion carried unanimously.
11. Consideration of a variance request allowing development of a
PUD containing an area of less than 3 acres. Applicant,
Investors Together.
O'Neill noted that townhomes developed in an R-2 zone must
meet the requirements associated with a planned unit
development. One of the requirements is that PUD sites must
contain at least 3 acres. City Planner, David Licht, has
recommended that the City grant a variance to this provision
and also consider deleting this requirement from our
ordinance. It is his view that a 3 -acre minimum is an
unnecessary restriction. O'Neill noted that the Planning
Commission had recommended that the City Council grant this
variance.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to grant a variance which allows
development of a PUD containing an area of less than 3 acres.
Motion is based on the finding that the variance is necessary
to allow the use of the land for townhome development under
the provisions of the R-2 zoning district, and granting of the
variance will not impair the intent of the ordinance. Motion
carried unanimously.
12. Consideration of a conditional use permit request which would
allow development of a townhome in an R-2 zone. Applicant,
Investors Together.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill noted that city ordinance
requires that a conditional use permit be obtained before a
townhouse development can occur in an R-2 zone. City
ordinance states that a townhome development in an R-2 zone
must meet the standards defined by the PUD requirement.
O'Neill reviewed the regulations governing planned unit
developments and reported that the site plan is consistent
with the requirements. He did note, however, that there are
certain issues that need to be addressed prior to approval of
the final plat and conditional use permit.
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to approve the conditional use permit
application allowing a townhouse development in an R-2 zone.
Motion is based on the f inding that a townhouse development at
this location is consistent with the comprehensive plan and
regulations governing planned unit developments. The
development is consistent with the character and associated
land use as identified in the R-2 zone. The development will
have direct access to the county road; therefore, the traffic
impact on adjoining R-1 uses will be minimized. Therefore,
the development is consistent with the geography of the area.
The need for this type of use has also been sufficiently
demonstrated. The conditional use permit approval is subject
to the same conditions associated with final plat approval and
subject to conditions as outlined by the planned unit
development requirements. Motion carried unanimously.
13. Consideration of a request to amend a condition of a
previously -approved conditional use permit. Applicant,
Hillside Partnership/Sixth Street Annex.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill informed Council that the
Planning Commission is doing additional research on the
matter; therefore, they tabled making any recommendation to
the City Council.
According to the ordinance, the City Council must also table
this matter pending the recommendation by the Planning
Commission.
14. Consideration of a variance request to allow less than the
minimum off-street parking spaces. Applicant, Hillside
Partnership/Sixth Street Annex.
Item tabled by Council.
Page 7
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
15. Consideration of a zoning ordinance amendment which would
allow certain commercial buildings located in a PZM zone to
qualify to follow sign requirements pertaining to buildings in
commercial zones. Applicant, Hillside Partnership. AND
16. Consideration of a conditional use request to allow a sign
system for a building with 3 or more business uses but which,
by generally understood and accepted definitions, is not
considered a shopping center or shopping mall. Applicant,
Hillside Partnership. AND
17. Consideration of a variance request to allow more than the
100 sq ft maximum wall sign square footage. Consideration of
a variance request to allow more than the 25 sq ft maximum
pylon sign square footage and to allow more than the maximum
16 -ft pylon sign height. Applicant, Hillside Partnership.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill informed Council that the
Sixth Street Annex is in the process of preparing a sign
system to serve the facility. The sign system proposed is not
consistent with the limitations imposed by the PZM zone. The
applicant proposes a total wall sign area of 390 sq ft. The
current ordinance limits wall sign area in the PZM zone to
100 sq ft.
O'Neill noted that the Planning Commission recommended that an
amendment to the zoning ordinance be drafted that would allow
the Sixth Street Annex to qualify under the rules governing
signs in the city commercial districts. This makes sense
because the structure and associated use, although located in
the PZM zone, which is a combination of commercial and
residential, has strong ties to the neighboring B-3 zone.
Using commercial zone sign requirements in this case would
allow the Sixth Street Annex to have 300 sq ft of sign area or
a pylon sign and 100 sq ft of sign area.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Shirley Anderson to adopt a zoning ordinance
amendment allowing certain commercial buildings located in the
PZM zone to qualify to follow sign requirements pertaining to
buildings in the commercial zones. Motion is based on the
finding that the PZM zone is a transition area between
commercial and residential uses. Allowing intensification of
sign systems in the PZM zone along the perimeter of commercial
areas is consistent with the purpose and consistent with the
geography and character of the area. The amendment as
proposed will not result in proliferation of business signs
within residential areas. Motion carried unanimously.
SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 230.
Council then considered the conditional use permit request
associated with the Sixth Street Annex sign system.
Page 8
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to approve the conditional use permit
request subject to revisions of the sign plan to meet the
requirements of the ordinance. Motion is based on the finding
that the sign system as proposed is consistent with
requirements set forth by ordinance. The signs are generally
oriented toward a commercial area; therefore, the sign system
is consistent with the geography and character of the area.
Motion carried unanimously.
Council then discussed the variance request.
Greg Mooney of 21st Century Builders indicated that the
request for the pylon sign in addition to the wall signs has
been withdrawn. He no longer felt that the pylon sign is
needed in addition to the wall signs allowed by ordinance.
Council discussion focused on whether or not to grant 90
additional square feet of sign area in addition to the
300 sq ft allowed by ordinance.
Clint Herbst noted that by amending the ordinance, the City
has already increased the allowable sign area from 100 sq ft
to 300 sq ft. He felt that it is not necessary to grant an
additional 90 sq ft.
Ken Maus noted that 390 sq ft is not unreasonable. It was his
view that the additional sign area might be critical to the
success of the businesses located in the facility.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Clint Herbst to deny the variance request which
would allow a total sign area in excess of 300 sq ft. Motion
is based on the finding that a unique circumstance or hardship
has not been demonstrated; therefore, approving the variance
would impair the intent of the ordinance. Voting in favor:
Shirley Anderson, Clint Herbst, Brad Fyle. Opposed: Ken
Maus.
20. Consideration of ratifying union contract renewal.
Rick Wolfsteller, City Administrator, reported that the
current two-year contract with six members of the public works
department maintenance staff expired April 1, 1992. Since
early spring, numerous negotiation sessions have taken place
with the union representatives. Wolfsteller reported that the
majority of the original union demands were dropped, and the
discussion boiled down to the real issues --salaries and
insurance benefits.
Page 9
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
Wolfsteller noted that the union targeted the comparable worth
report for determining their salary increase request, and the
proposed salary schedule as part of the contract renewal is
exactly the same as the comparable worth study proposed and
adopted by the City Council in November.
The second major issue defined in negotiations was the City's
contribution toward health insurance coverage. Previous
contract language has included a specified amount ($351.37)
per month that the City would contribute toward health
insurance coverage. In the past, we have agreed to increase
the amount annually by $15 per month; and an increase
provision stated that any insurance premium increased above
$15 would be picked up by the City at a rate of 50%.
Wolfsteller noted that he had proposed that the contract
eliminate the automatic increase in the City's contribution
annually and also eliminate the provision of the City agreeing
to pick up 50% of the premium increases.
Wolfsteller summarized the new contract by noting that the
major change and advantage for the City in the proposed
contract is that the union is agreeable to a longer step
process for wage increases by following the comparable worth
plan from 18 months to 4 1/2 years for new employees. The
potential savings for the City could be to our advantage when
new employees are hired or old employees are replaced. The
City could save over $7,000 in wages during the first 4 1/2
years of employment. Also, the additional language allowing
increases to be granted only upon satisfactory performance
evaluation gives the City administration more ability to
ensure that workers are performing adequately without
receiving automatic increases.
Wolfsteller noted that the union contract is almost identical
to non-union personnel. Wolfsteller did mention his only
concern of the contract is agreeing to provide increases in
union health insurance if other City employees receive
increases. But again, we've also eliminated a guaranteed
increase of $15 per month and a provision picking up 50% of
any additional premium increases.
Ken Maus noted that reverting the step increase plan from the
current union contract to the comparable worth plan will
result in significant savings to the City in the future.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Brad Fyle to approve the proposed union contract
as submitted. Motion carried unanimously.

Council Minutes - 6/22/92
Consideration of final payment for signal system at CSAH 75,
East County Road 39, and County Road 118.
John Simola, Public Works Director, reported that the signal
system on County Road 75 near Riverroad Plaza is now complete.
Simola recommended that Council authorize final payment to
Wright County Electric, Inc., of Plymouth, Minnesota, for the
signal system in the amount of $18,357, which is $800 under
budget.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Shirley Anderson to authorize final payment to
Wright County Electric of Plymouth, Minnesota. Motion carried
unanimously.
22. Consideration of a conditional use permit which would allow
construction of a public utility building in a PZM zone.
Applicant, City of Monticello.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill and Public Works Director
Simola reviewed the proposed site plan and potential impacts
on adjoining properties. Council discussion focused on the
proposed evergreen screen planting along the western edge of
the property. Public works staff was concerned that due to
the confined area, the original proposed staggered planting of
evergreens 10 ft apart might not be workable and could result
in overcrowding and result in problems in maintaining the
trees.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson to
accept the Planning Commission recommendation. Anderson
withdrew the motion for lack of a second.
After further discussion, a motion was made by Brad Fyle and
seconded by Shirley Anderson to approve the conditional use
permit subject to the following conditions:
1. Landscape planting for screening on the western
boundary of property is to consist of a single row
of evergreen trees to be located 10 ft apart along
the entire length of the western boundary of the
property.
2. A tree irrigation system shall be installed to
irrigate trees planted along the western boundary
of the property.
3. All outside storage areas
perimeter and not screened by
be screened via installation
fence.

Council Minutes - 6/22/92
4. Security lighting illuminating gas dispenser and
storage areas shall be installed.
5. When the situation merits, action shall be taken to
control dust generated by use of unpaved storage
and drive areas.
6. Materials stored in storage bins shall be screened
from view from the public right-of-way.
The motion to approve the conditional use permit is based on
the following findings:
1. The proposed conditional use permit is consistent
with the purpose of the PZM district, which is to
provide a land use transition between high density
residential land uses and low intensity business
land uses. The public utility building site plan,
which includes extensive screening, landscaping,
direct access to county and city state aid
highways, and separation from R-1 and R-2 uses, is
found to be consistent with the stated purpose of
the PZM zone.
2. The present mix of uses in the PZM district at this
location is compatible with the proposed
conditional use, and the proposed conditional use
is consistent with the geography and character of
the area.
3. The proposed site is sufficiently separate from
single family residential areas and is centrally
located so as to provide ease of access to all
areas of the city which will be serviced by the
facility.
4. The conditional use proposed will not depreciate
the area in which it is proposed, as it will be an
improvement to what was once a permitted use, will
enable the City to store vehicles which would
otherwise remain outside, and will be aesthetically
pleasing.
5. The use of the present site has grown so as to
render the existing buildings inadequate for the
stated purposes and, therefore, requires expansion.
The need for a public works building in a city the
size of Monticello is obvious.
6. The proposed conditional use is consistent with the
comprehensive plan.
Page 12

24.
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
7. The proposed site meets the requirements as
outlined by city ordinance.
Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of a variance to the curbing and hard surfacing
requirement.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill noted that the public utility
expansion proposal is not completely consistent with the
ordinance. Specifically, the employee parking area is not
presently bounded by a curb, and it is not proposed that a
curb be installed; therefore, a variance needs to be granted
to allow this condition to exist.
In addition, a variance is requested which would allow use of
the outside storage/drive area without paving. A portion of
the drive area will eventually be paved; however, it is not
proposed that it be paved at this time because during phase II
construction a portion of the paved area will need to be
removed. O'Neill noted that on past occasions, the City has
allowed other businesses to delay paving of certain areas in
anticipation of later development.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Clint Herbst to approve the variance request based
on the finding that the proposed variance will not impair an
adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, will
not unreasonably increase the congestion on a public street,
will not increase the danger of fire or endanger the public
safety, will not unreasonably diminish or impair established
property values within the neighborhood, or in any other way
be contrary to the intent of the ordinance. As a condition of
the variance, the public works department is directed to be
vigilant in maintaining the drive areas and shall apply water
to the drive areas when necessary to control dust. Motion
carried unanimously.
Consideration of award of contract for public works facility,
phase I.
John Simola explained that at the June 8 regularly scheduled
meeting, staff presented bid results for the public works
facility, phase I, received on May 29. The building committee
and the City Engineer recommend that the City Council award
the project to the lowest responsible bidder, the Rochon
Corporation, based upon the low base bid of $458,974.30, which
includes the building; site work; west drive area; soil
correction; add alternate #1, the radiant heating system at a
cost of $31,300; and add alternate #2, the sign shop and
storage mezzanine, at a cost of $20,600; for a total award of
$510,874.30.
Page 13
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
After discussion, a motion was made by Brad Fyle and seconded
by Shirley Anderson to award the contract for the new public
works facility, phase I, to Rochon Corporation based upon the
base bid and add alternates #1 and #2 for $510,874.30. Motion
carried unanimously.
25. Consideration of offer to purchase future 7th Street right -of -
way --Marvin Kramer property.
This item was tabled because the appraisal assisting Council
in making its decision was not available by meeting time.
26. Consideration of amending public nuisance ordinance.
Rick Wolfsteller reported that in order for the County
Attorney to continue prosecuting violators who refuse to
cooperate with local officials, the County has asked that
city ordinances regulating abandoned vehicles be consistent
throughout the county. It is requested that written notices
give the property owner 15 days to comply and correct the
violation. Since our ordinance currently gives the property
owner 10 days, the ordinance should be amended for only motor
vehicle public nuisances allowing 15 days to comply. The 10 -
day provision can remain as far as other public nuisance
sections are concerned.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to adopt an ordinance amendment
extending the time period for corrections of violations
concerning junked automobiles and vehicles from 10 days to 15
days as requested by the County Attorney's office. Motion
carried unanimously. SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 229.
27. Consideration of bills for the month of June.
A motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Clint
Herbst to approve payment of bills as submitted. Motion
carried unanimously.
28. Other matters.
Rick Wolfsteller reviewed the current status of the Kjellberg
West Mobile Home Park and requested that the Council give him
further direction with regard to negotiating the terms and
conditions associated with connecting the west park to the
city sewer system.
It was the consensus of Council that since Kjellberg did not
act on previous commitments made by the City to Kjellberg
regarding the hookup of his mobile home park to the city, and
since said agreements expired long ago, it was the consensus
of Council to completely renegotiate any terms and conditions
associated with providing sewer service to the east and west
Page 14
Council Minutes - 6/22/92
parks. It was also the consensus of Council that both the
east park and the west park should be connected to the city
system simultaneously.
Wolfsteller noted that the PCA will be meeting with Kjellberg
regarding this matter, and it is likely that the PCA will also
require that both east and west parks be hooked up to the
city.
There being no further discussion, the meeting was adjourned.
Jeff O'Neill
Assistant Administrator
