4. Public Hearing - Requeut to Redesignate Zoning in Par West Prior
to Plat Recordinq, AND
12. Consideration of Grantinq a Rodesignation from R-1 to R-2 for
Portions of Par West.
r
1LN An part of the development of Par west, ownor John Sandberg
had proposed some mixed ::onus that would allow multiple family
development in portiono of the plat. During the subdivision
and zoning hearings, a compromise was arrived at whereby approximately
half of the property woo zoned R-2 for single and two-family
duplexes along with some possihlo 4-ploxaa and 8 -unit townhouooa,
with the balance of the plat being single family residential.
The single family zoning would be that property adjacent to
County Road 75.
Mr. Sandberg now roqueotad that the entire plat be rezoned to
R-2 to allow for duploxon and up to 4 -unit buildings on Conditional
Uses.
The Planning Commission recommended that approval be granted
allowing the entire plat to be zoned R-2 before final recording
and passed the item on to City Council for the public hearing
on the matter.
Mr. Larry Nolan oxpreouod concorno on the number of possible
housing units or danaity that Could result from this plat it'
tho ontirn plat to ronud 11.-2. Mr. Nolan also questioned whether
tho City would plata a limit on the number of individual 4-plaxns
or duplexas that could ho davolopnd within the subdiviuton,
as that as hie main concern In the City rezoning the entire
Council Minutes - 7/23/84
plat to R-2. It was noted by the City staff that although no
limit on the number of units was recommended, the majority of
the properties would not be large enough in square footage to
allow for 4-plaxes but could allow duplexes.
Mr. Jerry Dirks, property owner in Hillcrest Addition, expressed
opposition to the rezoning request, as he felt that this issue
had been resolved by previous public hearings. Mr. Dirks noted
that when the original public hearings were held on the rezoning
for this development, many citizens objected to the entire plat
being R-2 zoning, and a compromise had been reached by the City
allowing part o1 the property to be R-2, with the property adjacent
to the railroad tracks and closest to other single family zoning
remaining single family in nature. Mr. Dirks felt that the
Council would now be going against what compromise had resulted
from the previous public hearings.
4 letter was also acknowledged and received from Mr. and Mrs.
Mike Beck, property owners in Anders Wilhelm Estates, who also
objected to R-2 zoning.
The Council majority felt that the R-2 zoning for this area
would be appropriate in that this is the least likely area to
cause problems with abutting property owners, as it seems to
be wall buffered from other residential zones. As a result,
motion was made by Fair, seconded by Maxwell, and unanimously
t carried to approve the rezoning request to allow that the entire
Par Wast plat be developed as R-2 zoning.
5. Public Hearing - Adoption of Tax Increment Finance Plan #5 for
Kay Tool 6 Plastics, AND
13. Consideration of Resolutions Adopting Tax Increment District
15 and Requesting Certification by County Auditor.
Last December, the Council passed a resolution of preliminary
approval for Key Tool 6 Plastica to issue $850,000.00 In Industrial
Ruvenuo Bonds. As part of the overall financing package, a
tax Increment financing diotrict has also been propoaod to write
down the coat of the land.
Briefly, the City will iaoue $100,000.00 in Tax Increment Ceneral
Obligation Bonds and acquire land for 590,500.00 and, in turn,
sell the land for $20,700.00, making a not roduction lot, the
developer Of 569,600.00. The $69,800.00 write down plus capitalized
interest and other legal coot will be recovered through the
additional taxes generated by the Kay Tool dovolopannt equaling
$10,000.00 list year.

Council Minutes - 7/23/84
ThuTax Increment District 05 has been approved by the School
District and the County, and adopted by the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority, with recent approval by the Planning Commission.
Hearing no comments from the public, the public hearing was
closed.
Motion was made by Maus, seconded by Blonigen, and unanimously
carried to adopt a resolution establishing the Tax Increment
Financing District 05 and adopting a resolution requeating the
County Auditor to certify the original assessed value of the
District 05. See Resolutions 1984 030 and 1904 031 .
G. Consideration of an Amendment to City Code of Ordinances, Title 7,
chapter 2.
It was recommended by the City staff that an Ordinance Amendment
be adopted by the City Council that would require each individual
building or each individual unit of a duplex or multiple family
dwelling that can be sold off individually have separate sewer
and water services. It was noted by the Public works Director
that the City currently requires separate water shut-offa for
each separately owned building or part thereof. But the City's
current Ordinance does not specifically require separate sewer
connectiOnS.
j Tho Public works Director noted that the City has had problems
with shared services in the past and that this change in the
Ordinance would eliminate possible problomo in the future.
A second change recommended that the minimum size of water linos
serving individual properties be 1 -Inch rather than the currant
requirement of 3/4 -inch copper.
Motion woo made by Maxwoll, seconded by Fair, and unanimously
carried to adopt the Ordinance Amendment to Title 7, Chapter 2,
that would roquir.e each individual property or building that
can be sold to have a separate sewer and water service connection
and to also require 1 -inch water linos. Sao Ordinance Amendment
No. 139.
7. Conaidotation of an Amendment to tho Toning Ordinance to Allow
Boarding Renese ou d Cendilienal Uou in a 11-4 Zone, AND
15. Considuration of a Conditional Use tot a Boarding house in a 13-4
'hone, Applicant - Tom hummer.
Air. Tom hummer proviouoly purchased what to known as t.ho Frionda

Council Minutes - 7/23/84

� time Mr. tiammor purchased it was in substantial need of repairs,
15 with the upper floor of the building previously having been
used as apartments. The property is located in the D-4 zoning
district, which does not allow residential uses; and as a result,
the previous apartments were non -conforming uses.
A building permit was granted to Mr. Hammer to rehabilitate
the upper floor of the building into 10 apartment units. Mr.
Hammer also at that time thought he was getting permission to
add an additional five apartment units in the lower level, which
he felt was the best use of the building. However, the City
Ordinances do not allow a non -conforming use to expand or be
enlarged, which required Mr. Hammer to stop work on the lower
unit apartments.
It was recommended by City staff, Consulting Planner, and the
Planning Commission that the City consider adopting an Ordinance
Amendment that would allow boarding houses as a Conditional
Use in a 8-4 commercial zone and to establish specific conditions
that must be mot in order for a conditional Use Permit to be
granted under this now proposed zoning change. If adopted,
it appeared that Mr. Hammor*s proposed development may be the
only property in the 8-4 zoning district that would meet all
of the conditions of a boarding house, which would require remodeling
of an existing building and also requiring that the building
have a complete restaurant facility in the same structure. )
Fiction was made by Maxwell, seconded by Fair, and unanimously -J
carried to adopt Ordinance Amendment No. 138 adding a boarding
house as a Conditional Use within a B-4 commercial zone.
Motion was then made by Maxwell, seconded by Blonigen, and unanimously
carried to approve the issuance of a Conditional Use Permit
to Mr. Tom Hammer to allow a (wording house to exist in a B-4
commorcial zone pursuant to the newly adopted Ordinance Amendment.
S. Consideration and Review of Hido for the Improvement of County
Road 75, Hart Boulevard, and Cedar Street.

$614,628.40 $606,041.90
Council Minutes - 7/23/84
The City's Consulting Engineer had estimated the total project
Cost to amount to 5561 324-00, which was 8.9% lower than the
bids actually came in at.
Approxinatcly $125,000.00 of the contract price is for Hart
and Cedar Street improvements, with the balance for Broadway
improvements.
No action was taken on this item other than review of the bids,
as the item will be scheduled for the August 13 Council meeting.
9. Consideration of a Resolution Declaring Cost to be Assessed
and Ordering the Preparation of Proposed Assessment.
Because previously the property owners affected by the proposed
improvements on Hart and Cedar Streets have come before the
Council to express their concern about being assessed 1008 of
the project cost, and because there is some question concerning
the amount of benefit derived vs. the value of the assessment,
it was recommended by the City staff that an assessment hearing
be held prior to the granting of the contract for the improvements.
Any challenges to the propoued aaseasments would have to be
mado at this time, thus allowing the City to know whether or
t-.. not they will have sufficient revenues to cover its coat. Previously,
the property owners affected by the dart and Cedar Street improvements
tequested th,ut they be anseased similar to what the majority
of the former City wan assessed under the '77 Street Improvement
Project, which was 2oa of the coat. Their reasoning was that
they had initially requuctad improvements an part of the 077
Street Project but wera denied the improvements due to future
construction requirements along those streets. The property
owners indicated they felt it woo unfair to be assessed 1001
now for the came improvements they could have had in 1977 for
only 20%.
Motion wan made by Fair, seconded by Maus, and unanimously carried
to Adopt Resolution 1984 #32 declaring coat to be assessed and
ordering preparation of proposed aaaaaamont roll using a 200
assessment factor. voting in favor was Grimsmo, Fair, Maxwell,
Maus. Voting in the opposition wan Blonigon.
10. Consideration of a Ranolution Setting a nearing on the Proposed
Assessment.
Motion was made by Maua, seconded by Maxwell, and unanimously
carried to adopt a resolution setting August 13, 1904, as the
data of the aouoaoment hearing for Hart and Coder Street improvements.

L�
14. Consideration of Resolutions Authorizing the Sale of Tax Increment
G.O. Bonds.
Mr. Jerry Shannon of the City's Bonding Consulting Firm of Springsted,
Inc., was present at the Council meeting to review recommendations
for the negotiation and placement of two bond issues relating
to the improvement of Hart and Cedar Streets and Tax Increment
Financing District 05. Mr. Shannon proposed a bond issue in
the amount of $170,000.00 to cover the cost of improvements
to Hart Boulevard and Cedar Street and recommended a $100,000.00
Tax Increment Bond to cover the Tax Increment Financing District
05 project for Key Tool 6 plastics.
It was noted by Mr. Shannon that the private placement could
occur as a single issue, although there would be two separate
bonds, and recommended that August 13 be the sale date to award
the bond sale.
Motion was made by Fair, seconded by Maxwell, and unanimously
carried to adopt a resolution authorizing Springsted, Inc.,
to solicit bids on $100,000.00 G.O. Tax Increment Bonds and
$170,000.00 G.O. Improvement Bonds. See Resolution 1584 034.
16. Consideration of a Request for a Conditional Use to Allow More
than 12 Unite in a Multiple Dwelling, Applicant - Construction
5, Inc.
Construction 5, Inc., requested a Conditional Una Permit to
build another 24 -unit apartment building adjacent to their other
proportion along Lauring Lane. Currently, a 24 -unit apartment
building is under construction and near completion. The now
proposed building would have 18 two-bedroom and G ono -bedroom
units and meets all the City's requirements as far an land area,
etc.
Motion van made by Kaxwsll, nocondad by Blonigon, and unanimously
carried to approve the Conditional Use Request to allow a 24 -unit
apartment building to be built in on 11-3 Zone for Construction

17. Consideration of a Roauuat ioc a Simple Subdivinion. Applicant. -
Montieello-Big Lake Community licauit.ol.
Monticello -Big Lake Community ilospitol han recently purchased
the format' E.M. Wulf property wit.h plans to demoliah the okisting
house and make the sits available for a proposed new ambulance
yarago. As part of the puichnso agreement., the Monticello-Ilig
Council Minutes - 7/23/84
(\_ Lake Hospital requested approval to subdivide a 10 -foot strip
along the westerly side of Lot 2 and deed this 10 feet to Mr.
Wulf for access to the rear portion of their lot. The subdivision
of the 10 feet requires Council approval, as the lot would still
have the required 12,000 square feet minimum for an R-1 residential
zone but would be less than the 60 -foot front width required
in that the lot would then be 79.16 feet in length.
Motion was made by Maxwell, seconded by Fair, and unanimously
carried to approve the simple subdivision request of the Monticello -Big
Lake Community Hospital allowing a subdivision of a 10 -foot
strip along the westerly side of Lot 2, Block 24, Lower Monticello.
18. Consideration of a Request for a Conditional Use to Allow an
Ambulance Garage in an R-1 Zone, Applicant - Monticello -Big
Lake Community Hospital.
The Monticello -Big Lake Community Hospital requested a Conditional
Use to build an ambulance garage on the newly purchased residential
lot next to the Monticello Dental Clinic, just west of the existing
Dental Clinic building. Public uses such as a hospital ambulance
garage arc allowed in residential zones provided a Conditional
Use Permit is granted.
A is iter from an area property owner, Julia Finley, was entered
into the record opposing the Conditional Use Request, as Mo.
Finlay felt the hospital has enough property closer to the actual
hospital facility that could be used for an ambulance garage
and felt that such a structure in a residential area may he
a detriment to property values, etc.
Mayor Crimamo also felt that the hospital should have considered
attaching an ambulance garage to the hospital facility rather
than having a separate structure away from the hospital.
After reviewing the item, motion was made by Maxwell, seconded
by Blonigen, to approve the Conditional Una Request for an ambulance
garage on Lot 2, Block 24. Voting in favor was Maxwell, Blonigon,
Maus, Fair. Voting in the opposition was Crimamo.
19. Consideration of Authorizinq the Purchnoo of an Air Dryer for
Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Public Works Director, John Simola, roquostod approval to purchase
a now air dryer for the WWTP to replace the existing one that
recently failed. Two quotas were received, one from MinneoAa
Industrial Tools in the amount of $2,430.00, and a second quote
from Sullair North Central in the amount of $2,200.00.

O
Council Minutes - 7/23/84
Motion was made by Maxwell, seconded by Fair, and unanimously
carried to authorize the purchase of an air dryer from Sullair
r' North Central in the amount of $2,200.00 to replace the existing
malfunctioning air dryer at the WWTP.
20. Consideration of Authorizing the Purchase of a Snowplow from
STP.
RoCently, the City of Monticello has been in contact with a
company in Norway which manufactures snowplows, truck bodies,
and tire chains. The company has expressed interest in locating
a manufacturing plant in the State of Minnesota and has considered
Monticello as a possible. site.
This Norwegian firm has previously provided the State of Minnesota
with six snowplows that the State has tested in different areas.
Thin particular type of plow has a trippablo cutting edge, and
only the cutting edge folds back when the plow strikes an object
and immediately snaps forward to its original position. The
plows currently used by the City require the entire plow to
trip forward and lift up to clear the object.
The Public Works Department is not entirely satisfied with its
current plows being used and Colt that the trippablo cutting
edge type plow would be a good experiment for the City of Monticello.
In comparing the cost of a plow from the STP Corporation with
I4 J1 another quoto received from MacQueen Equipment Company, the
STP Corporation plow was approximately $1,900.00 cheaper. As
a result, motion was made byMaus, seconded by Olonigen, and
unanimously carried to authorize the Public Works Department
to purchase a plow from the STP Corporation at a coat of $2,675.00.
21. Consideration of Issuing a Request for Proposals for Architectural
Services for Now Fire its 11.
Over the past several months, the City staff, along with the
Fire Department personnel, have been reviewing possible s.i.teo
that could be used for a now Piro [fall and have narrowed it
down to two sites that would be suitable. The primary site
being proposed: Lots 1-5, Black 13, located directly wast of
the present Municipal Liquor Stora.
it was noted that if construction is to proceed in the near
future, a bond referendum will have to be held to approve the
sale of bonds to finance the eventual. construction. it is recommended
that a bond referendum be hold in conjunction with the General
clsction on Novamber G. thus requiring immediate otopo to select
a design, etc., along with coot estimates that can be made ovailnble
to the public prior to the election.
Council Agenda - 7/23/84
r
it was recommended. by the Administrator that the City consider
requesting proposals from architectural firms for services of
designing a now Piro Hall, etc. The Request for Proposals (RFP)'
generally Is -asking architectural firms interested in providing
services for the new Fire Hall to provide three proliminary
designs and floor plans of a new Fire Hall, and provide cost
estimates, etc. The City Council and staff could than review
any proposals received to narrow down and interview possible
applicants for the architectural job.
Some concerns were expressed by Council members Maus and Blonigan_
concerning whether the City should got involved with another,
architect to design a Fire Hall. Questions were raised as to
whether the expense of an architect is warranted for a structure
such as a Fire Hall when many designs are currently available
from construction firms who have built many fire halls.
After considerable discussion regarding architects, motion was
made by Fair, seconded by Crimsmo, to authorize the issuance
of a Request for Proposals for Fire Hail services from architectural
firms. Voting in favor was Pair, Crimamo, Maxwell. Voting
In the, opposition were Maus and Blonigan.

4. Public Hearing - Cable Communications Franchising. (T.E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
This hearing is required by the Minnesota Cable Communications
Board. At the last meeting of the Cable Commission, Rite Cable
Company was unanimously selected to be recommended to the individual
City Councils as the approved cable company. At that time,
the Commission directed Tom Creighton, Legal Counsel, to prepare
a strict franchise ordinance for the regulation of a cable company.
That process is underway currently. when the franchise ordinance
is complete, the Commission will again meet as a whole to see
if there are any discrepancy items or restrictions that would
prohibit Rite Cable from effectively delivering their services.
When the franchise ordinance is put into its final form, it
will come to each of the individual ten councils for adoption.
Hence, it is the City who actually grants the franchise and
not the Commission. The City has not relinquished its power
or authority to the Commission, but rather has delegated its
exercise of powers. The Commission anticipates completion of
the first draft of the ordinance within the next 2-3 weeks.
The Rita Cable Company's proposal was far superior to Dowden's,
but It did have some questionable data. Each of the ten communities
Cunanimously expressed concern over the levels of penetration
that Rita Cable projected. The problem, of course, is that
if they do not achieve the level of penetration that they projected,
then they do not generate the revenue projected, and they very
probably will coma to the Commission to ask for permission to
reduce services. This is the very concern that is being built
into the ordinance. It is the Commisoion's wish and desire
that the request for reduction of services simply dean not occur.
Legal Counsel advises that practically speaking this cannot
really be prevented, but at boat we can make ouch a reduction
In service very difficult and vary uncomfortable. The Commission
members atill fool that Rita Cable has made us the superior
offer.
I doubt that anyone will appear at the public hearing. It is.
however, necessary to open the hearing and enter it into the
official record. if no one is present to make public comment,
you may simply close the hearing after a few minutes. Thorn
Is no other action required of the Council at this time. Your
next official action will be when the franchise ordinance has
boon drafted and reviewed. As 1 mentioned in the beginning,
this is strictly a State requirement that this hearing be hold.
No alternative actions, recommendation, or supporting data on
( this matter.

5. Public Hearing - Proposed Assessment Roll on the Improvements
of Hart and Cedar Street. (T.E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
This is the hearing required under M.S. 429. This is the hearing
where anyone aggrieved by their proposed assessment may file
their formal objection. If no formal objection is filed at
this time, then the assessment roll will stand as proposed.
The property owner who may later change his mind and wish to
object has forfeited that right. As you recall, we have elected
to hold this hearing and the assessment roll adoption prior
to the formal ordering of the improvement and awarding of the
contract. This was to protect the City in the event that severe
objections would result in the City paying for the entire project.
Because we have assessed only 20% of the overall project, I
anticipate no objections. After the mailing of the formal notice
of hearing and proposed assessment, only Wilbur Eck stopped
in to sae me. When I explained how we arrived at the figure
and his final assessment, he left without objection. I do not
anticipate him objecting to his proposed assessment at this
time.
The immediate next Stem on the agenda ie the resolution adopting
t the assessment roll. Upon the closo of the hearing, the resolution
will come immediately before you. There being no objections,
we recommend that the resolution be adopted so we can get on
with the business of the improvement.
As directed by the Council, we have assessed 20% of the total
project coot, including certain City property that qualifies
as assessable. The total project coat that we used is the 5170,000.00
Bond issuance. We use this amount because all expenses that
rolato to the Bond sale, including the capitalized interest,
are project related and are legally assessable. We have assessed
a total amount of $34,000.00.
I will have available at the mooting public copies of the worksheots
that you have attached as supporting data. If you wish, I can
make a public presentation on how we arrived at the assessment
roll.

6. Consideration of a Resolution Adopting the Assessment Roll for
the Improvement of Hart and Cedar. (T.E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Most background has been provided for you in the previous item.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Anticipating that there is no objection to the proposed
assessment, the only real alternative is to adopt the assessment
roll, unless you wish to halt the project.
2. If there is objection to the assessment roll, you may review
the possibility of lowering the assessments before adoption.
The difficulty with any lowering of assessments at this
time, however, is that any reduction would put us under
the 20% threshold and thereby make us ineligible for the
selling of Bonds and consequently, we would have no money
to pay for the job.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the resolution be adopted.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
Copies of the computations and workaheets; Copy of the complete
assessment roll; Copy of resolution for adoption.

Boulevard and Cedar Street. (T.E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Having adopted the assessment roll, and there being no objections,
we are now clear to officially order the making of the improvement.
The attached resolution is required for the complete Bond sale.
I presume at this point there is little further debate required.
The engineering and bidding is complete. The assessment roll
now is complete and adopted. If we wish to complete the job
in 1984, then, in reality, there really is only one action to
take.
I am presenting no alternative actions or staff recommendations
on this item.

Bonds for the Improvement of Hart and Cedar. (T.E.)
�!!•i �J9�T�Mtlu Z TS�Srliidnil�F
At the last meeting, the Council authorized Springsted to solicit
Bond bide. Those numbers will be called in to me on Monday
afternoon for me to present Monday evening to you. A representative
of Holmes 6 Graven, who are acting as Bond Counsel, will be
present at the meeting to review both this Bond issue as well
as the later one with respect to tax increment finance. Again,
like the previous items, there is little discussion or alternative
actions with this item. If we are still committed to going
ahead with the project, then clearly we must sell the Bonds
to pay for it. Unless the Bond bide are so totally out of line
and unworkable that we cannot justify the sale, I recommend
we proceed with the sale to the best bidder. we will have
Springsted's recommendation in hand by Monday night.

Council Agenda - 8/13/84
Consideration of a Resolution Ordering the Improvement of County
Road 75. (T.E.) (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Throughout the course of preparing this project, the figures
have gone back and forth between the City and the County in
a cooperative effort. At the last meeting, you reviewed the
construction figures and found them to be acceptable, but elected
to send them on to the County for final approval since they
were substantially higher than the estimated cost. John, in
the following paragraphs, will point out the discussions he
had with the County Engineer. As I understand it, this matter
was not required to go back before the County Board since it
did fall within the approved budget. John's narrative will
highlight the development of the project to this point.
The City of Monticello received a low bid for the County Road
75 project from Buffalo Bituminous of Buffalo, Minnesota, on
July 20, 1984. The bid for the 4 -lane portion of County Road
75 from Chestnut Street to the high school in which the City
will participate was $376,970.00. On Monday, July 30, the City
staff mat with the Wright County Highway Engineer, Wayne Fingalson;
his assistant, Dick Marquette; and the proposed Project Engineer,
Charles Lepak from OSM. We discussed the City's share of the
proposed project. The City must pay 1001 of all gate valve
adjustment for the project, which is $5,200.00. The City must
also pay for 50% of the concrete curb work. Our share would
be $6,370.00. In addition, we must pay for 30% of the roadway
cost. The City's share of this portion would be $107,709.00.
This brings the total City share of construction costo to $119,279.00.
Initial face for engineering from OSM and their outside consultants
totaled $25,628.63. The County will reimburse us up to a maximum
of 50 of the bid or a maximum of $18,846.50. This loaves us
with a coot of preliminary ongincoring on the project of $6,780.13.
During our meeting with the County Engineer. Mr. Fingalson indicated
that the County'o work load was such that they could not perform
the inspection on the project. They, thoreforo, requested that
OSM perform the inspection and have the necessary tooting performed
by an outside laboratory. The County will reimburse up to 5%
of the construction coot for these inspection services or a
total of 518,848.50. The actual coot is expected to be much
loan than that figure, no the City should not have to pay for
the inspection services.
The project itself shall consist of complete removal of the
existing pavement in all of the 4-lano portion except that which
in castbound from Highway 25 to the high school and was repaired
- 6 -
It
Council Agenda - 8/13/84
a few years ago. After removal of the bituminous material,
the Claes V shall be leveled and compacted and added to as necessary.
It will then receive 2 inches of bituminous base course, 14 inches
of bituminous binder course, and a final 1 -inch lift of modified
bituminous wearing course, with the total thickness of the asphalt
being 4y inches.
Along with the street, there will be approximately 690 feet
of curbing and 10 feet of concrete center island replaced.
The project is expected to start later than Hart Boulevard and
Cedar Street, but the bituminous portion should be completed
by October 15 and the entire project by October 31.
I am presenting no alternative actions or staff recommendation
for this particular item.

10. Consideration of a Resolution Awarding the Contract for the
Improvement of Hart Boulevard, Cedar Street, and County Road 75. (T.E.,J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
This is the last resolution in the chain of resolutions required
to initiate this project. Having adopted the assessment roll,
ordered the improvement, and secured the financing through the
sale of Bonds, we are now prepared to award the contract.
The following information has been prepared by John Simola to
give you a brief description of the extent of the project and
the bidding process as we went through it.
The bids for this project were received on July 20, 1984. The
low bidder was Buffalo Bituminous of Buffalo, Minnesota. The
low bid received for the Hart Boulevard portion of the project
was $81,741.00. This project will consist of paving the entire
portion of Hart Boulevard from the crosswalk in front of the
Monticello Specialty Clinic eastward to County Road 75. The
width on the westerly portion of the project will be approximately
40 foot tapering to a width of 33 fact on the easterly and of
the project. Curb and gutter will extend on the north aide
from the Monticello Specialty Clinic to the Lindberg property
on the cast side of the wastewater Treatment Plant. on the
south aide curb and gutter will extend from the hospital parking
lot easterly to a point approximately 50 foot beyond the Bondhuo
sidewalk.
Storm drainage for Hart Boulevard will be handled through the
installation of four catch baoino located on the western portion
of Hart Boulevard. Approximately 360 foot of 6 -Inch water main
will be added to the eastern and of Hart Boulevard, with a hydrant
being located near the intorsectlon of Hart Boulevard and County
Road 75. We have also provided in the contract for a too to
be placed just east of the Hart Boulevard intersection for the
purp000 of crossing County Road 75 In the future.
The bid received for Cedar Strout utilizing an urban type section
with curb and guitar was $42,932.50. This project will consist
of paving Cedar Strout from the Burlington Northern Railroad
to Louring Lane. The width of the street itself would be 36
foot. A small amount of storm newer work, including two catch
basins, would be necessary to provide for drainage.
A 6 -inch water service would be placed to the Wilbur Eck property
on the eastern aide of Cedar Street for the purpose of serving
any largo future development In that area. On the western portion
of the street a too will be provided near the hydrant for the
purpose of adding services to the western aide of Cedar Strout
- B -
I
Council Agenda - 8/13/84
at a later date. Approximately 60 feet of 8 -inch sanitary sever
will be placed underneath Cedar Street for the purposes of serving
the Wilbur Eck property at a later date.
The bide for Cedar Street also included a bid for a narrower
rural type of street without curb and gutter. There would be
a deduction of approximately $6,000.00 for a rural section street.
Due to the expected traffic in the area and the nature of the
adjoining streets, 7th Street and Cedar Street, the staff feels
that the rural street should not be considered.
The work on Cedar Street and Hart Boulevard is expected to start
shortly after award of the contract. Completion date for the
bituminous portion is October 15, with completion of the entire
project by October 31.
I am presenting no alternative actions or staff recommendation
for this particular item.

11. Consideration of a Resolution Selling Tax Increment Financing
Bonds - Key Tool 6 Plastic, Inc. (T. E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
At the last Council meeting you adopted a resolution establishing
Tax Increment District 05 and requesting the County Auditor
to certify the assessed value. You also adopted a resolution
authorizing Springsted to prepare bids for Tax Increment Finance
Bonds in the amount of $100,000.00. On Wednesday, August 1,
the HRA adopted a resolution entering into a Pledge Agreement,
as we have done in the past. Thin Agreement pledges all tax
increment to the retirement of the Tax Increment Bonds. Also,
during the interim since the last meeting, we have been working
on the Development Contract with Key Properties. That Agreement,
as of this writing, is not signed and completed as yet. I have
been in touch with Holmes and Graven, who have advised me that
we are nearing the signing and hopefully will have that Contract
signed by Monday night. We have advised Kay Tool that if the
Agreement has not been entered into, it might be very difficult
to sell the Bonds. If we sell the Bonds and aro unable to reach
an agreement for development thereafter, then the City is left
with a debt that it must retire, but no project to generate
thetax increment. Consequently, the debt would have to be
��rati red 0ithor by tax levy or by the creation of a brand now
project that we could dedicate the money to. I believe we would
have three years to generate a now project if the Key Tool project
did not develop. Holmes and Graven have advised me that the
Development Contract is near signing and that conceivably we
would have a complete signed letter of intent if we do not have
the formal contract, and ouch a letter would suffice for the
authorization of Bonds.
A representative of Holmes and Graven will be in attendance
at the meeting to discuss both the Bond issues. We will know
more at that time whether or not to proceed with respect to
the Tax Increment Bonds. If we have a firm commitment to a
Development Contract, then it would be wise for us to sell the
Bonds and proceed with the project and got them under construction.
If, however, we are in a position where wo have absolutely no
guarantees that the project will occur, than we have the option
of rejecting all bids and thereby stopping the project. Holmes
and Graven have also advised me that if we adopt the resolution
issuing the Bonds, than we have, in oaaonee, entered a purchase
agreement and must follow through. We do not have the option
of cancelling the Bond sale after the adoption of this resolution.

Council Agenda - 8/13/84
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Having already adopted the Tax Increment Finance Plan and requested
certification of the District, I assume that our intentions
are to proceed with the project, thus, alternative actions are
limited.
1. Assuming the Development Contract is entermd into, adopt
the resolution authorizing the sale of Bonds.
2. If the Contract is not complete, you may wish to reject
all bids or adopt the resolution authorizing the sale and
take a chance on the Contract being completed or a new developer
being found.
3. Regardless of the status of the Contract, if the bid proposals
are out of line, you may wish to reject all bide as well.
Springsted has advised me that they will be sending a recommendation
at the time they inform me of the actual bide.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Providing the Contract is closed and the bide are found to be
acceptable by Springeted, staff recommends the adoption of the
( resolution authorizing the sale of Bonds so that the project
may proceed. If the Contract has not been signed, staff recommends
getting further advice from legal counsel so to whether or not
to proceed with the sale. As I noted above, a representative
from Holmes and Graven will be in attendance at the meeting.

amount of Bonds of the some maturity and interest rate of any authorized
denominations. In all cases in which the privilege of exchanging or transferring
fully registered [fonds is exercised, the Issuer shall execute and the Registrar shall
deliver Bonds in accordance with the provisions of this Resolution. For every such

or transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Resolution, the cost of
preparing each new Bond upon each exchange or transfer, and any other expenses
of the issuer or the Registrar Incurred in connection therewith (except any
applicable tax, fee or other governmental charge) shall be paid by the issuer. The

case may be. Any interest on any Bond which Is payable, but Is not punctually paid
or duly provided for, on any interest payment date shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the registered holder on the relevant regular record date solely by
virtue of such holder having been such holder; And such defaulted Interest may be
paid by the issuer to the person in whose name such Bond is registered at the close

shsll he Affected by any notice to the contrary. Payment of or on account of the
principal of Any such Bond shall be made only to or upon the order of the registered
owner thereof, but such registration may be changed as above provided. All such
payments shall be vAlid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon
such Bond to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
4.05. if (i) any mutilated Bond is surrendered to the Registrar, and the
issuer enTthe Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss, or theft of any Bond, and (ii) there is delivered to the Issuer and the Registrar
such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them

its request the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu
of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond, a new Bond of like tenor and
principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. In case
any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Bond has become or is about to
become due and payable, the issuer in its discretion, instead of issuing a new Bond,
may pay such Bond.

require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto.

Council Agenda - 8/13/84
12. Consideration of Approving a Proposed Farmers Home Administration
Elderly Housing Project. (T.E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
For nearly two years, we have had a proposal to develop an elderly
housing project through Farmers Home Administration on Lots
13-15, Block 51. This in the site that the HRA purchased from
the old Development Corporation and had the houses demolished.
It is the land right behind the old Flake Garage and Jones Manufacturing.
Farmers Home Administration refused to approve any applications
for a long period of time until the project that they had built
in Big Lake reached capacity rent up. Last fall, Farmers Home
Administration approved the 'Big Lake project for rental to anyone
who qualified and not just elderly. Shortly after they opened
the eligibility to all persons, the project did fill up, and
the Monticello project came to life again. During the period
that Farmers Home Administration would not act on Monticello's
application, the option agreement with Joe Poehler expired.
At the beginning of 1984, Brad Larson, Jim Metcalf, and Barthel
Homes, as a partnorehip, approached the NRA to request an option
on the same land. They went into a competitive process with
Mr. Poehler, who still intended to complete the housing project.
The RRA, having spent substantial money on interest payments,
demolition, and other rolated cost, stated that an option would
coat $2,400.00 for six months, would be non-refundable, would
not apply to a purchase price, and then set the purchase price
at approximately $62,000.00. They also withdraw the offer of
tax increment financing for this particular project. When all
of that information had bean presented, Mr. Poehler withdraw
saying that the land coat had become unworkable. Essentially
what had happened is that the land cost had nearly doubled duo
to Farm Homo delay. At a price of nearly $70,000.00, Mr. Poohlor
withdraw and the Metcalf, Larson, Barthel partnership accepted
the terms of the option. In order to put their application
into Farmorn Homo, the partnership requires a latter of support
from the City Council. Thin is required because a Farmers dome
project is accessed at a 20% level rather than the 34% level.
The north half of Blocks 50 and 51 aro being proposed to the
Planning Commission for rezoning. This matter was dincuossd
shortly after I arrived in the City and received approval from
Howard Dahlgron. It seems highly unlikely that tho north half
of those blocks will dovolop commercially an they ara currently
coned and would, in fact, present themselves as an excellent
buffer botwoon the commercial and the single family housing.
Thus, we coo no difficulty with the land use planning aspect
of the proposal. We further think that the site would be excellent.
- 12 -

C
Council Agenda - 8/13/84
Another matter the Planning Commission will be addressing will
be a conditional use in excess of 12 unite, since the project
is proposing 31 unite. As an elderly housing project, they
are allowed to have less parking spaces than for a regular or
conventional housing project. They have not, however, indicated
that they can create the extra parking places:should their elderly
designation be removed. We find this to be somewhat troublesome
but also have little doubt that the project will fill itself
up with elderly. The site being as good as it is and there
being a demonstrated need for elderly housing for moderate income
people, we think that 1008 occupancy will occur very quickly
upon completion.
The action required after completion of a review of the data
is simply a motion directing staff to send a letter to Farm
Home Administration endorsing the project.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Adopt a motion directing staff to submit letter endorsing
the project - this is a required part of the application
packet and the project will not receive approval unless
given City approval.
2. Deny the letter - this should be based on sound judgement
that we are sacrificing prime tax property and that the
reduced assessment is not beneficial to the City or that
the provision of elderly housing does not outweigh the lose
of tax baso to the City.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that, in spite of the reduced assessed value,
the City, by granting approval, addresses a vary real need with
respect to quality elderly housing. Recall also that this area
was considered substantially blighted when the HRA first made
its initial acquisition. This is the completion of a process
that began nearly two years ago with the intent of eliminating
blight and creating some downtown elderly housing.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
Copy of comparative data and other information about the reduced
aaaossed value; Copy of the letter drafted by the Secretary
of the HRA to be cant to Farm Home Administration.

13. Consideration of Rankings and Bide from Architectural Firms. (T.E.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Having done the preliminary ranking based on credentials and
presentations, we should now re-evaluate the overall ranking
to include their bid prices. When the final ranking is complete,
I suggest we select a certain number of firms you wishto interview
at a special meeting. The call for a special meeting to interview
is the next item on the agenda and will not have a specific
supplement for it. It would be desirable to interview no more
than three, but depending on the ranking, including bids, and
any Council debate, you may wish to invite more than three.
If you do elect to invite more than three, I recommend that
we not go more than five under any circumstances.
I think it would be desirable if we are going to proceed with
having an architect do the work that we make our selection as
early as possible so that we may proceed toward the bond referendum.
Again, as I noted earlier, it is desirable to hold the bond
referendum in concert with the November General Election. First,
we save the expense of conducting a special election; and second,
a General Election draws out many, many voters, whereas a special
election on a bond issue has the tendency to draw only the negative
votora. If we have proceeded far enough to take this to a bond
reforendum, I am making the assumption that we have identified
the need for a Fire Hall and, in fact, support such construction.
If that assumption is incorrect and there is still thoughts
that a Fire Hall is not required, than financially we would
be boat off to dispense .with plans and drawings and not conduct
the referendum. I think it is essential that the Council take
the position of supporting the Fire Hall construction. I wish
to also stress that if we choose to proceed, onto an architect
is elected, we or a building committeo must sit down with the
architect to define the limits of acceptable structure.
I think it should be stressed that one of the real possibilities
that may occur is the re -opening of the possibility of a remodeling
of the existing Piro [fall. Jack Maxwell, on Council directive,
has contacted the owner of the property we have identified as
the most acceptable. Besides expressing an unwillingness to
sell, Jack, in his role as an appraiser, has valued the property
at a number in excess of $100,000.00. While we had pretty much
diamissod the notion of renovating the existing Fire Hall because
of expense, if land value for a now Fire [tall is so high, it
might be. in fact, cheaper to do a major renovation. Utilizing
the money that would ordinarily go into a land sale for conversion
would than allow us to do an expansion of the existing Fire
C
Council Agenda - 8/13/84
Hall for substantially less than all new construction and the
end resu it would still be beneficial. Because this might be
a very real possibility, we may wish to ask the architects we
interview whether or not this will affect their bid prices.
Clearly, if this is the final selection, it should have a definite
bearing on the architectural rates for Phase II as laid out
in the Request for Proposals. It may not have much bearing
on the Phase I proposal and what it might cost to prepare renderings
and assist with the referendum.
Because this is an important matter, and at least two persons
were to be absent this past Wednesday, I have elected to move
this item to the regular agenda and request that you set a special
meeting for the interview of architectural firms. I know that
everyone wishes to be closely involved with this particular
decision making process.
As a final note, I realize that there is some concern about
tho expense of utilizing an architect for a project such as
this and whether or not it wouldn't be more beneficial to the
City to utilize a design/build typo of bidding method. This
is a very realistic and sensible approach as well. It is entirely
conceivable that after seeing the bide you may wish to reject
all arch1toctural firms and pursue a now course. The only difference
L in a process of that sort would be that we construct an acceptable
budget and then request design and build bids to moot that budget.
It is conceivable also that we conduct a referendum without
a design in mind but only with a expenditure amount established.
If the amount is approved by the voters, we would then enter
the design and build bidding process. This is a realistic and
accepted approach.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
I. Select 3 to 9 architectural firms to interview at a special
mooting - this again still does not commit you to hiring
a firm after the Interview. It simply eliminates the root
of the firma from further consideration.
2. Rojo ct all proposals - if the proposals are rejected, but
you still support the notion of constructing a now Piro
Hall , this action would prompt pursuing the project from
a different angle, perhaps the donign/build prospect. I
should note that just because we have pursued the Request
for Proposolo does not obligate the City in any way to select
a firm and proceed with the project.

Council Agenda - 8/13/84
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that we do proceed with the selection of people
to interview. Even after the interview, the Council is not
obligated to select a firm and proceed with the project. I
think that overall we would have a better feel for the services
that would be rendered by an architect by going through the
interview process. With respect to the special meeting, I suggest
we set aside 30 minutes per candidate, allowing them each 15
minutes to discuss their firm and 15 minutes for questions.
In order to expedite the manner, I encourage you to set the
special meeting for the week immediately following the Monday
night meeting. I think it would be most desirable to conduct
the special meeting in the late afternoon on Wednesday or Thursday.
