Members Present: Arve Grimsmo, Fran Fair, Warren Smith, Dan Blonigen,
Bill Fair
Members Absent: None
1. Consideration of Appointment to Position of water/Wastewater Collection
System Operator.
Public Works Director Simola reported that the City received 40
applications for the position of Water/Wastewater Collection System
Operator. He went on to say that Tony Strande is recommended by staff
for the position by virtue of his overall excellent experience in the
field. In addition, Tony performed well for the City as a Wastewater
Treatment Plant Operator prior to being laid off due to organizational
change.
Simola then reviewed a proposed enployee agreement which requires that
Tony Strands reside within 10 minutes of the city of Monticello. At the
moment, Tony lives in Palmer, Minnesota. The employee agreement
requires that Tony comply with the residency requirement within six
months of his start date. The enployee agreement also calls for Tony
starting at 90 percent of union wage with an increase to 100 percent of
union wage after successful completion of a probationary period.
Finally, the employee agreement stipulates that Tony will receive credit
for years worked with the City in calculating the accrual of vacation
time. Council reviewed the qualifications of the other candidates with
City staff and discussed the terms of the proposed employment
agreement.
After discussion, motion was made by Fran Fair to approve the
appointment of Tony Strands to the position of Water /Wastewater
Collection System Operator and to approve the employment agreement with
the stipulation that there will be no extensions to the time line
associated with the residency requirement contained in the employee
agreement. Motion seconded by Bill Fair. Motion passed unanimously.

2. Approval of Minutes.
Motion trade by Bill Fair, seconded by Dan Blonigen, to approve the
minutes of the regular meeting of the Monticello City Council for the
meeting held Monday, May 9, 1988.
3. Citizens Cotmnents/Petitions, Requests and Complaints.
Don Veit of the Monticello Jaycees requested that Council consider
approving the Monticello Jaycees plans for a street dance in July 1988.
After discussion, Council approved the Monticello Jaycees plans for a
street dance. Council did request that the Jaycees remove litter and
debris that might result from the street dance.
4. Consideration of Accepting or*Rejecting Bids on Streetscaoe Improvement
Project and Authorization t4 Rebid the Project.
Staff i::formed Council that Tuesday, May 17, bids for the Streetscape
Project were opened and that only one bid was received from Veit
Construction Company with a base bid of $219,969.13. This was
26 percent more than the estimate of $173,596 for the base bid. Council
was also informed that the landscaping portion was within the estimate
prepared by Dahlgren and Associates, but the main problem exists in that
only one bid was received on the general construction and it was 26
percent over the estimate. Mayor Grimsno asked Geoff Martin if the City
was likely to receive more than one bid if the project readvertised for
bids. Martin responded that he had contacted a number of contractors
and learned that it is likely that the City will receive three or more
bids if the project is rebid.
Fran Fair noted that the project must stay within budget, or the City
should not do the project. Motion was made by Bill Fair, seconded by
Fran Fair, to reject the bid submitted by Veit Construction, because the
bid amount is over estimated project cost. voting in favor Arve
Grimsmo, Fran Fair, William Fair, Warren Smith. Opposed: Dan Blonigen.
Motion carried.
Motion made by Bill Fair, seconded by Fran Fair, to authorize the
rebidding of the Streetscape Project, voting in favor: Bill Fair, Fran
Fair, ArVe Grimsmo, Warren Smith. opposed: Dan Blonigen. An attorney
representing Veit Construction, asked for a clarification on why the
Veit bid was being rejected. Council reiterated the fact that the
rejection is due to the bid amount being well over the estimated coat of
the project.
W
Council Minutes - 5/23/88
At this point in the meeting, Jerry Shannon of Springsted Inc. discussed
the implications of bonding for the Streetscape Project prior to
ordering the project. Be noted that the City has three years to spend
the bond proceeds for other projects that qualify under Chapter 429. If
the funds are not spent within three years, Federal Arbitrage Laws
require that the unspent bond proceeds be invested in a fund earning a
restricted yield. Bill Fair noted that with or without Streetscape,
there is still significant work that needs to be done on the downtown
area in terms of sidewalks, curb and gutter, etc. At this point in the
meeting, Council discussed whether or not to open the bids for the tree
grates, the lighting system, and the refurbishing of the bridge
railing. After discussion, Council decided to open the bid for the
Streetscape lighting and tree grate components of the project. The bids
were opened and found to be within the estimated project cost.
Public Works Director Simola noted that only two bids for the bridge
railing had been received and that because of the expected wide range of
cost estimates for this work, it appears prudent to rebid the bridge
railing refurbishing portion of the project. After discussion, motion
by Bill Fair, seconded by Fran Fair, to rebid the portion of the
Streetscape Project pertaining to the refurbishing of the bridge
railing. Voting in favor, Arve Grimsmo, Fran Fair, William Fair, Warren
Smith. Opposed: Dan Blonigen. Motion carried. See Resolution 88-14.
5. Consideration of Resolution Awarding the Sale of $1,625,000 in G.O.
Improvement Bonos.
Jerry Shannon of Springsted was present to discuss the bids the City
received and recommended that the City award the sale of $1,625,000 in
General Obligation Improvement Bonds to Clayton Brown and Associates,
Inc. Shannon noted that Clayton Brown and Associates, Inc., provided
the lowest interest rate and the lowest net cost to the City for the
bond proceeds. Shannon went on to say that the bids received are
comparable to other bond sales in the area.
After discussion, motion by Fran Fair, seconded by Warren Smith, to
award the sale of 51,625,000 in General Obligation Improvement Bonds to
Clayton Brown and Associates, Inc. Dan Blonigen noted that he is not in
favor of this sale because Streetscape will be financed by this bond
sale. Voting in favor: Fran Fair, Warren Smith, Bill Fair, Arve
Grimsmo. Opposed: Dan Blonigen. See Resolution 88-15.
6. A Variance Rest to Allow Construction of an Attached Garage Within
the Front Yard Setback Requirement. Applicant, Todd Theisen.
Council acted to approve the variance. It was Oouncil'e view that in
certain portions of town where lot sizes and configuration restrict
development of structures associated with the demands of present
lifestyles, special consideration must be given when discussing variance
requests. In addition, it was noted that under circumstances where a
varian-e is needed appropriate in order for a homeowner to fully utilize
Council Minutes - 5/23/88
his property, such a variance should include a requirement that the
homeowner getting the variance design his structure in a manner
compatible with the existing structures on the property and compatible
with the surrounding environment.
Motion by Fran Fair, seconded by Warren Smith, to grant the variance as
requested. Motion carried unanimously.
7. Consideration of Requiring Donations from Charitable Gambling Licenses.
Staff reported that the City has the option of requesting that
charitable organizations licensed by the City donate at least 10 percent
of their net proceeds to organizations local to Monticello. Council
discussed the natter and agreed that since the organizations conducting
charitable gambling in Monticello are generally distributing the
majority money locally, there is no need for the City to get involved in
regulating where 10 percent of the proceeds should be spent. It was
determined, however, that prior to the issuance of any license renewal,
the organization requesting the renewal must submit to the City a
financial statement which outlines where the charitable gambling
proceeds are spent.
Motion by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Bill Fair, to require that
organizations requesting charitable gambling license renewals present
financial statements showing gambling proceeds collected and also
showing where proceeds are spent. No license will be approved without
the submission of this report. Motion carried unanimously.
8. Consideration of Gambling License Renewals - Legion Club and Monticello
Jaycees.
Motion by Bill Fair, seconded by Dan Blonigen, to approve the renewal of
the gambling license for the Legion Club and Monticello Jaycees. Motion
passed unanimously.
9. Consideration of Establishing a Junk Amnesty Day.
John Simola and Jeff O'Neill reviewed the program. Staff requested that
the collection day be established for June 11 and also suggested that
the Council limit the number of white goods permitted to be dropped off
at the collection site to three white goods per household. After
discussion, motion was made by Warren Smith, seconded by Fran Fair, to
direct staff to conduct a junk amnesty day and to limit the number of
white goods deposited at the drop-off center to three articles per
household.
10. Consideration of Appointment to Position of water/Wastewater Collection
System Operator.
Public Works Director Simola noted that staff has not been able to
conduct the interviews necessary to establish a recommendation for
Council Minutes - 5/23/88
appointment. Simola requested that the Council establish a special
meeting at such tire that a recommendation is available. Council agreed
by consensus to establish a special meeting at such time that a
recommendation is forthcoming regarding the appointment to position of
Water/Wastewater Collection System Operator.
11. Consideration of Purchasing a Pickup/Trailer/Mower for Streets and Parks
Department.
John Simola reviewed the need for the proposed purchase. He noted that
City staff is quite often short a vehicle. It was Simola's
recommendation to purchase the equipment because of the decreased wear
and tear on mowing equipment and because the equipment will allow the
City to conduct mowing operations more efficiently. Administrator
Wolfsteller was asked by council if there is money available in the
Public Works budget for this purchase. Wolfsteller replied that the
money is available.
Motion by Warren Smith, seconded by Fran Fair, to approve the purchase
of a pickup truck, trailer, and mower. Motion carried unanimously.
12. Consideration of Resolution Approving Plans and Specifications and
Advertising for Bios on Weli as and Interconnecting Piping.
Warren Smith noted that the manganese levels keep increasing on the
reports that he has regarding well 14. John Simola noted that the
manganese is likely to drop off with the completed well, as this is the
pattern shown with other well installations and that well water produced
by well Y4 contains a level of manganese that is treatable. John Simola
also noted that Minnesota valley labs found a significant level of lead
in well 14. However, the lead found is very likely to be the result of
short term contamination of the water created during installation of the
well structure.
Motion by Fran Fair, seconded by Bill Fair, to approve the resolution
approving plans and specifications and advertising for bids on well 14
and interconnecting piping. See Resolution 88-16.
13. Consideration of Setting a Special Meeting Workshop to Discuss the Water
Tower Project.
A special meeting to discuss the water tower project was established for
Monday, June 13, at 2:00 p.m.
14. Consideration of Bills for the Month of May.
Coun eilmember Smith asked about the wide fluctuation in Fire Department
expenses associated with a recent conference. Administrator Wolfsteller
said that he reviewed all expense reimbursement requests and found no
problems.

Motion seconded by Warren Smith. Motion carried unanimously.
At this point in the meeting, John Simola informed Council that he has
been unable to get proper certificate of insurance from the contractor
responsible for installing the roof on the concession building. Siniola
noted that attempts have been made to obtain the proper certification
from contractor, Doyle Veches, but to no avail. Council agreed to award
the contract to the second lowest bidder if Dayle Veches does not
provide the proper insurance certification by Wednesday, May 25.

Attn: Mr. Jeff O'Neill

Re: Trunk Sanitary Sewer Extension To
Kjellberg Property
Dear Jeff:
Following our meeting on June 1st in Monticello regarding the proposed Kjellberg
Evergreen Development, 1 was asked to estimate the cost of extending the Dundas
Street trunk sewer from the northeast corner of Kjellberg's Evergreen Addition at
C.R. 117 to the southeast corner along the ditch section in C.R. 117. In order to
arrive at a possible assessment figure, I also had to estimate the entire trunk
sewer extension as shown on the revised sanitary sewer plan.
This has been done and the estimated cost is as follows:
SEGMENT 1, Dundas Road Extension along easement, thence westerly S 182,000
to C.R. 117
SEGMENT 1, C.R. 111 and northeast corner of Evergreen Addition S 235,000
southerly to the southeast corner of Evergreen Addition
SEGMENT 3, along Power tine Easement from C.R. 117 westerly one S 485.000
mile
Total Estimated Construction Cost $ 902,000
Indirect Cost (21x) $ 245,000
TOTAL PROJECT COST ............................................. $1,147,000
Further evaluation of the trunk sewer extension has indicated that I may have
spoken too soon on the available capacity of this trunk sanitary sewer extension.
See the enclosed Sanitary Sewer Plan for this location and area served. The
capacity available in the trunk sewer at the north side of Dundas Road can serve
approximately 820 acres. Of the 820 acres, 120 acres within the City of Monticello
requires sewer service leaving a balance of 700 acres for areas outside the present
city limits. The acreage to be served could follow along the pattern of parcels
shown on the enclosed Sanitary Sewer Plan.
As you indicated in your summary of the June 1. 1988 meeting, there are several
methods available to the City in securing funds to pay for this improvement.
Basically there are (1) assessments to benefitting property with a minimum of 20
percent being assessed, (2) referendum, or (3) declare the trunk sewer extension
necessary to protect the health, safety and welfare of the public under MSA Chapter
115.
Based on the assessment policies of many municipalities in the metropolitan
suburban area, the cost of an improvement of this kind is paid for by the area
being served based on benefits received through a lateral and trunk sewer assess-
ment. The trunk sewer passing through or alongside a parcel of property may also
benefit from the fact that a sewer connection can be made directly into the trunk
sewer, then this parcel of land would pay a lateral assessment also based on a unit
lot charge or by abutting frontage. A lateral assessment cost which varies from
approximately $28.00 per foot for residential lot to $36.00 per foot for a
commercial and industrial property. The area assessment is generally based on a
per acre charge and may be derived from an average charge throughout the system or
city or by directly calculating the cost of the trunk required to serve the area
and assessing that cost to the area. This could vary depending on the area served,
the sequence of construction and the route of the trunk sewer.
The most equitable way to assess the area cost is based on historical area assess-
ment casts. At times you may not be able to collect 100 percent of the cost of the
trunk extension and in some cases you would collect more than the cost of the
extension. This will average out over the years and the monies collected would be
put into a separate trunk sewer extension account and the City would draw from this
for the necessary bond payments and the construction payments. As stated before,
the figure of $1,250 per acre is the rate being used commonly in the metropolitan
suburban area. This figure is then adjusted annually or biannually to reflect
construction cost increases and inflation. In this case we had to estimate the
cost of the entire trunk extension from Oundas Road South southerly, thence
westerly, thence southerly and terminating about i mile west of C.R. 117 at the
northeast corner of the Dunes Addition. See the attached Sanitary Sewer Plan.
The estimated cost of the entire sanitary trunk sewer extension is approximately
$1,150,000. As previously stated. 700 additional acres can be served by this
extension. Therefore, dividing $1,150,000 by 700 acres results in an area cost of
$1,643 per acre. This is several hundred dollars higher than the suggested average
rate of 51.250 per acre. Refer again to the Sanitary Sewer Plan that indicates a
probable area that could be served. further note that the actual $1,643 figure
could be reduced by a lateral charge to those properties abutting the trunk sewer
that can connect to the sewer directly.
Carrying this further and using the suggested rate of $1,250 per acre, the
Evergreen Addition of 160 acres would be assessed 160 x $1,250/Acre • $200,000,
which is 17% of the total project cost. However, a check should be made as to this
sanitary sewer extension being allowed under MSA 115 which contains the provision
for protecting the health. safety and welfare of the city giving the city the right
to levy bonds for this extension.
If you have any questions in this regard, Please give me a call.
Yours very truly,
ORR-SCHEIEN-MAYERON

Council Agenda - 6/13/88
a. Review Status of "The Evergreens" Preliminary Plat Application and Consider
Estaolishing an Area Assessment Charge for Trunk Sewer and Water Projects.
Q.0.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The following is a brief discription of the status of "The Evergreens"
subdivision proposed by Kent Kjellberg. Council is asked to review this status
report and make recommendations regarding further negotiations with Kjellberg
pertaining to the extension of water and sewer service to "The Evergreens".
As you recall the Planning Commission tabled it's recommendations to the City
Council pending additional engineering information regarding "The Evergreens"
subdivision. Of particular concern was the manner in which sewer and water
service was proposed to be extended to the development. Under Kjellberg's
original proposal, sanitary sewer was to be extended to Phase I from a shallow
trunk line located directly north of the development. As proposed, Phase I of
the developr+ent could be served by gravity, sanitary sewer. However many of the
individual services would be shallow therby causing potential cold weather
problems and creating a need for individual lift stations in basements. In
addition, the Planning Commission balked at giving its approval because the
engineering information provided by Kjellberg did not clearly indicate if lift
stations would be required to service later phases of the project. Recently it
was confirmed that maintenance intensive lift stations would be required to
service the development area and because of this negative factor, serious
consideration should be given to extending the deep trunk line to the
development area.
DISCUSSION OF UTILIZATION OF DEEP TRUNK LINE
The deep trunk line is located at Dundas Road midway between County Road 117
and Fallon Avenue to the northeast of the development area. There are a number
of reasons why it may be in the long term interest of the community to utilize
the existing deep trunk to service the development area.
The Comprehensive plan calls for extension of this trunk line in a
southerly manner to ultimately service the Kjellberg development area and
other areas to the south. A significant investment has been made in this
deep trunk line in extending it to its present position. A portion of
this investment will be lost if the deep trunk is not utilized by "The
Evergreens".
if the deep trunk is not extended to service the development area then it
will be more difficult for economic reasons to extend the trunk line to
other areas south of its present position. The cost per acre to extend
the trunk line will increase if much of the area it is designed to serve
is serviced via the shallow trunk line and series of lift stations.
There are economic and may be political reasons for not extending the
trunk line as suggested. In economic terms, it will be Costly. The cost
to extend the sanitary sewer trunk line to the Northeast corner of the
development area is estimated at $257,000 including engineer and
administrative costs, if the project is to be possible, it is likely that
the the City will be participating in the financing of the project which
may disturb some citizens in spite of the fact that extension of the trunk
line may be in the best long term interest of the community.
Council Agenda - 6/13/88
TRUNK EXTENSION FINANCING
If Council agrees that the best method to service this property is through the
trunk line as suggested, then a method for paying for this extension must the
developed. Obviously, a major portion of the project costs should be paid by
the developer. At the last meeting between Kjellberg and the city staff, the
concept of utilizing an area assesment to defray the costs for trunk line
extentions was discussed. Under this concept, Kjellberg would be required to
pay flat rate per acre for use of the trunk sewer and water line. John
Eadalich will be providing you with details on the actual area assesment
figures. Preliminary costs and estimates indicate that the city would be able
to recover about 25 percent of the actual costs through captured area assesment
fees generated by -The Evergreens" subdivision and Kjellberg Park East Mobile
Home Court.
f?4iild�J;t3ii a1i
Council is asked to discuss the potential of extending the deep trunk to the
"Evergreens" subdivision and if Council determines that this option is viable
then Council is asked in the next agenda item to Consider ordering a
feasibility study.
Council is also asked to discuss to what extent the City should participate
financially in the project and determine if utilizing an area assessment model
is appropriate. If an area assessment is appropriate, Council is asked to
establish an area assessment amount. John Badalich will be providing
additional information regarding area assessment rates etc.
OTHER INFORMATION
On Tuesday, June 18, 1988, the Planning Commission will be reviewing additional
information regarding the preliminary Platt and will be masking a recommendation
regarding the preliminary Platt approval to City Council.
Consideration of approval of the Evergreens Preliminary Platt Application is
tentatively scheduled for the June 27, 1988 Council meeting.
Council Agenda - 6/13/88
5. Consideration of Resolution Ordering Feasibility Study for Trunk Sewer
Extension to "The Evergreens" Subdivision Development Area. {J.O.) )-
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
This agenda item follows is associated with the previous agenda item. if
during previous discussion, council determines that extention of the trunk
sewer and water to "The Evergreens" is viable alternative and if it is
determined that Kjellberg will pay a porion of the cost to extend the utilities
via an area assessment then a feasibility study is needed to determine the cost
of the project and to determine the total area served by the trunk line
extension.
John Badalich will have information regarding to cost of the study. It is
proposed that the cost of the study to be paid by the revenue generated via the
area assessment.
B. ACTION REQUESTED:
If council determines that the deep sewer trunk will be utilized by "The
Evergreens" subdivision then a motion to order feasibility study for extension
of trunk sewer and water to "The Evergreens" subdivision is needed.

Work. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The following is a list of specific items or concerns to be addressed at our
workshop for June 13, 1988.
1. Construction of an elevated water tower in the Industrial Park v.s. a
ground level reservoir and interconnecting piping on top of the Monte
Club hill.
2. Setting the elevation for the elevated water tower or ground level
reservoir.
a. with pressure reducing stations in the mains and in affected
homes and businesses.
b. Without pressure reducing stations anywhere in the system.
3. Ungrading of existing wells and piping.
a. Upgrading of well fl to pump at a higher head. This well
has a new 75 hp motor, but the pump was due for service
three years ago.
)a b. Upgrading of well 12 including pump, motor and auxilary
drive to pump at higher heads.
C. Building new water main from wells Al and w2 along Cedar
Street to Fourth Street.
4. Demolition or refurbishing of existing water tower.
5. Conpletion of the interconnecting link of missing 24 inch watermain
along east side of County Road 118 from Chelsea Road to the north
side of I-94.
6. Funding of part or all of the purposed improvements to the water
system.
The above six items are to be discussed at the workshop with discisions to be
made at the council meeting following the workshop. Enclosed is the discussion
concerning each one of the above items.
1. Water Storage Type and Location
The city engineer has determined in the July 1985 Water Study, that the city
needs approximately one half of a million gallons of additional elevated
storage capacity for water. The city has held off taking any action in regard
f to the water storage facility until the issue of annexation was completed. The
` three mein reasons that we considered the Monte Club hill were, 1) coat, even
with the necessary interconnecting piping running up the hill, it is still
cheaper to build the facility on top of the Monte Club hill then an elevated
storage facility in the industrial Park. 2) The facility on top of Monte Club

hill contained about 800,000 gallons of water, giving us an additional benefit
of 300,000 gallons of water at a higher pressure than we currently have right
now. And lastly, the maintenance over the long run on a tank located on top of
the Monte Club hill would be less than one elevated in the Industrial Park.
We began, again, a few weeks ago with our discussions with Bruce Cagnelious of
the Monte Club. It was agreed that we would both seek appraisals to determine
approximate land costs and determental effects, if any, from the water tank and
then meet again to discuss the issues. Our appraisal indicated an approximate
land value of $9,000 per acre on the Monte Club hill. This is relatively close
to Jack Maxwell's original estimate of $10,000 per acre and Bruce varified that
the land costs were relatively close to his appraisal. The big problem,
however, was the effect of the above ground tank sitting up near the Monte
Club. Bruce was informed that under no circumstances should he allow that
construction to take place. Such a tank located at a high elevation, which
could be 15 to 20 feet above his building roof top, may devalue the nearby
property and make it difficult to sell the Monte Club in the future. Bruce
suggested we look into the posibility of building the tank out of concrete and
placing it below the ground. He showed us pictures of a facility constructed
in the city of Edina, which fulfills the needs of the city yet is pleasing in
appearance. Such a facility would be constructed of concrete rather than the
steel exposed tank as previously proposed. Other than the cutting of the
grass, there would be less maintenance on this type of the tank than the steel
one. Bruce would sell us the land needed for such a underground tank.
John Badalich, and Chuck Lepak are to cornplete additional studies regarding the
construction of such an underground facility. I have not as of yet received
written information from them. The original estimates were $430,000 for the
elevated tank and $220,000 for the ground level tank, adding $90,000 for the
water main running up the hill would bring it to $310,000. We therefore had a
differance between the two of $120,000. The following is a list of some of
those things that would eat away at the $120,000.
e. There is a greater distance from the industrial Park than to the
Monte Club Hill for routine inspections. This would require more time over a
period of years. In addition, we would have greater costs for the telemetric
phone line rental and if we would be going greater distances there is a greater
possibility of malfunction.
b. We would be required to build an entrance road near the Monte Club
hill, and due to the slope, more than likely the road would have to be
constructed with retaining walla. The road would have to be maintained over a
peroid of years until such time the area developed on it's own and the road
could be further improved.
C. We would have to build some type of storm sewer system back to the
township road in case of an overflow or for draining purposes.
d. The tank on top of the Monte Club hill or the underground Lank
whichever would not as easily recognized as a landmark such as the watertower
in the downtown area.
e. The building of the water tank on top of the Monte Club hill would
require a conditional use permit.
f. The construction of the watermain down the township road would
require an easement.
Council Agenda - 6/13/88
g. The purchase of the property in addition to the estimated costs of
the land would require consessions to the Monte Club in the area of $11,000.
h. The county has just built a new intersection below the hill for
County Rnad 118. Erterding the piping up the hill would require jacking under
this intersection or removal of this intersection at greater costs.
All of the above and the preceeding page could be expected to eat away at the
$120,000. The city engineer will have to determine the cost of all these items,
but if they are still neck and neck, it would still be better to consider the
reservoir on top of the Monte Club hill, rather than the one in the Industrial
Park due to long range differance in maintenance ccsts of the tank verses the
tower itself.
2. Setting the Elevation of the Water Storage Facility
Our existing 50,000 gallon elevated storage tank downtown overflows at
elevation 1040. With elevations within the community ranging from 906 to 965,
our static water pressures are around 32 to 57 PSI. As soon as water is used
someplace in the community those pressures drop significantly. Charts are
available which show water pressures near zero at times in Meadow Oak.
The proposed elevation for the new facility has a high water line of 1105.
This would increase the existing static water pressure by about 27 pounds and
would put a high at 84 pounds and a low at 59 pounds. This is again with no
water being used in the community such as what would happen during the middle
of the night during very low usage. During the day, however, when water is
being used the pressures would be lower. Static water pressure is generally
calculated at 1 PSI for every 2.34 feet of water. This increase in pressure,
(even if our old watertower were not a factor and was removed) may damage some
of the 1940 water lines and galvenized water services and older fixtures in the
downtown area and lower parts of the community. In order to separate the
system south of the freeway from the system north of the freeway and to have
more moderate pressures in those areas that cannot take the increases, we would
have to install water pressure reducing stations, probably five main stations
would be needed. Since these are prone to failure, we would have to install
safety devises in each one of the homes or businesses that could be affected by
the high water and recommend that everyone with a galvenized service replace
it. I questioned Chuck Lepak on the actual need to have an overflow elevation
of 1105, and asked him if he could go back in the computer and calculate out
what our real needs would be to provide adequate fire flow and yet have a
system that could be built whatout pressure reducing stations. Chuck indicated
that he would study this and report back to us.
It is basicly a double edge sword as far as the elevation of the water tank
goes. If we set it at too low of an elevation, we won't provided enough water
pressure. If it is at too high of an elevation it will probably cause problems
with our distribution system and for many homeowners.
3. Well Improvements
Well 01 received a new motor a few yearn ago. We replaced it with a 75 hp
motor knowing that we would be making improvements. We have held off pulling
well I1 for it's routine seven year maintenance, as we knew we would be
Council Agenda - 6/13/88
rebuilding the pump to pump at higher pressures once the new tank is built. In
addition, we will have to enlarge the pumping compacity for higher head at well
42. This will not only mean replacing the motor with a higher horse power
motor, but, refurbishing the purrp as well. Some modifications nay have to be
given to our emergency drive engine at this point. With the well pl and i2
pumping at higher pressures, they will be causing more problems in the small
diameter piping in the area of Cedar and Third Street, we therefore need to
build an additional line from the pure houses yl and 42 to Fourth Street where
they interconnect with a trunk water main, thereby not causing servere problems
to nearby homeowners. The original estimate in 1985 was $50,000 to do this
work, I beleive this estimate is significately off, but at this time John
Badalich has not provided any additional new figures or estimates.
4. Demolition or Refurbishing of Existing Watertower
When the new water storage facility is down for repairs, we need some type of
control to maintain water pressure within the distribution system. It is
possible to do it one of two ways. The first method would be to use the pumps
at the reservoir in a staged fashion to pump near the flow of water out of the
distribution system, thereby maintaining proper pressure. This could be done
through properly designed controls and pressure sensors in the system.
The second alternative would be to lower the pressure slightly and use the
existing watertower during those periods that the new watertower is done for
maintenance. Water would be provided at a lower pressure, but would be more
stable. The cost of refurbishing the existing watertower would be around
$10,000 to $12,000 to include a new epoxy paint on the inside to let it stand
enpty for periods of time. The cost of removing the tank is expected to be
around $5,000 or $6,000. The staff would be in favor of removing the old
watertower only if the City Engineer assured us that he can control the
pressure to a stable condition through the use of the buster pumps at the
reservoir.
S. 24" Water Main on Chelsea Road
The lest leg of construction is the 24" water main on the east side of County
Road 118 going north from Chelsea Road to a point just over I-94. This would
require jacking under both lanes of I-94 and since the pipes are 24 inches in
diameter this would be expensive. At this time, I do not have completed cost
information from John Badalich, but, I expect it to be in the area of $15,000.
6. Financing
At this time, any or one of a combination of the following financing systema
can be used, 1) 00 Bonds through a referendum, 2) Revenue from system users
through Revenue Bonds , 3) Chapter 429, combining these improvements with
another project.
All of the above methods have been discussed in detail in the past. The
referendum takes time . The staff is oomfidlent that city residents would vote
for improvements. The revenue bonds could double the water rates in the city
i of Monticello. Final ly, the use of Chapter 429 would require us to combine
this with another iaprovement in the city. At this time there is no
improvement on the books ready to go to be crmtined this but several have been
talked about, the Kjellherg sanitary trunk line, and or the Sandburg
inprovement project.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative we would hope would come from the workshop session
and would be as follows.
a. Select a water storage facility type and location.
b. Set an elevation for the water storage facility that hopefully will
not require any pressure reducing stations within our system.
C. Develop a plan for upgrading the existing wells and piping to the
intersection of Cedar and Fourth.
d. Authorize demolition of existing water tower as the new system is
faced in after assurances from the city engineer that their control
systems as designed will allow accurate control of our system without
a second facility.
e. Authorize completion of the 24 inch water main with the project.
f. Determine the type of funding to be used and make authorization for
the nessecary preparation whether is be referendum, revenue bonds or
Chapter 429.
2. The second alternative would be to hire an additional consulting
engineer who specializes in water systems and obtain a second opinion. In
regard to the six specific items as listed, if there are still doubts or
conserns within the council or staffs minds after the workshop, this may
be the best proceedure to follow. I would expect that we could receive
such a second opinion within 90 days.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
(. The staff has hopes that we will be able to move ahead as outlined in
Alternative il, however, if after the workshop meeting there are still doubts,
we highly recommend in moving to Alternative 12 and proceeding forward so that
we can plan for spring 1989 construction.

Hydrostorage elevated steel water storage tanks are
stylish, functional and durable; all at competitive prices.
A decision to construct an elevated water tank is based on many factors, such as
capacity, long term performance, and initial cost. We feel that design Is a factor
just as important. A tank Is a major investment for a community, a structure, pro•
perly maintained, that will be in service well into the next century. When all things
are added -up and costs compared, the deciding factor should be how the tank
will look in the future. Mydrostorage offers many designs from 25.000 to 3,000,000
gallons. For more Information contact us.

Council Agenda - 6/13/88
7. Consideration of Resolution Awarding Bids on Pumphouse, Pump 6 Controls -
Project 88-01C. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
After redesigning of pumphouse 03 to accomodate and chemicaly treat water from
both wells 03 b 04, the pumphouse along with the pump and controls was
readvertised for opening at 11:00 a.m., June 9, 1988. The following is a
preliminary tabulation of those bids as received.
1. Richmdr Construction of Fridley $ 272,290.00
2. ABE Construction of Golden valley $ 276,300.00
3. A 6 R Construction of Stillwater $ 288,727.00
As can be seen by the above tabulation the apparent low bidder is Richmar
Construction in the amount of $272,270.00. It is expected that JoTF-tiadalich
will be reviewing these bids and making recommendations for award at Monday
evenings meeting. This bid is well over estimates of $198,100 (excluding MOD b
piping for well 04) and it may be possible to issue a change order to get back
down to near our estimates.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
l
1. First alternative is to award the pumphouse, pump and appertenent work to
Richmar Construction in the amount of $272,270.00.
2. The second alternative would be not to award the bids. At this particular
time. It is imparative that we get well 03 on line and operating, even at
600 gallons per minute is better than no backup at all. Therefore,
Alternative /2 does not appear to be practical unless the bids are totaly
out of line with no room from negociation.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is the recommendation of the Public Works Director that the council proceed
and as recommended by the City Engineer at Monday's meeting.

Attn: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
Re: Pump and Pumphouse No. 3
Project No. 88 -OIC
OSM Comm. No. 3595.30
Dear Mayor and Council Members:
On June 9, 1988, three bids were received and opened for the referenced project.
The bids ranged from a low of $272,290.00 to a high of $288,727.00. The Engineer's
Estimate was $213,000.00. Although all bids are within 6% of one another, the low
bid is 27% higher than the Engineer's Estimate.
The original estimate was prepared for the Water System Analysis later updated in
the Preliminary Cost Estimate and Feasibility Study for Project 88-01 in January,
1988. This estimate was $156.000.00 for construction ($198,000.00 project cost)
which did not include revisions for: (1) 70 square feet additional space; (2)
piping of Well No. 4 and No. 5; and (3) new controls package for the entire water
system. These three items were estimated to cost $7,000; $10,000; and $40,000 and
together with the $156,000 total $213,000.
An additional closer analysis of the estimate indicates that it may be about
$30,000 short due to the switching gear and electrical cable needed for the
emergency power service to the reservoir pump room. the refined cost estimate for
Pump and Pumphouse No. 3 is therefore $243,000.00. As such, the low bid is still
12% greater than our estimate. We have had indication from the low bidder (Richmar
Construction) that the electrical portion of the bid was higher than he expected
and that he had noted little interest in that work from electrical contractors
because of other larger more lucrative projects being bid in the area on that
day. He thought a more competitive bidding situation might realize a savings of
$20,000.00. However, we have received indication that the materials portion of the
total electrical bid of $115,000 was $80,000. If this is the case, then one could
expect little reduction in the electrical bid as there is only $35,000 in labor to
possibly reduce. Also, the specified aluminum doors (for corrosion resistance) may
have a $5,000.00 premium and the yard piping may also be more costly than if a
utility contractor did it as part of his work.
Page Two
City of Monticello
June 15, 1988
As such, it is our recommendation that the project be rebid with minor modifi.
cations to the scope of work with the hope of realizing a savings of $20,000 to
$30,000. This will allow the controls for Well No. 4 to be included in this
project which will increase this project cost but should result in a small overall
savings.

S. Consideration of Resolution Awarding Bids on Interconnecting Piping -
Project 88-048. W .S.)
A. REFERANCE AND 6ACRGROUIM:
At the May 23, 1988 meeting, the council authorized the advertisement for bids
for well #4 and the supply line between well #4 and pumphouse #3. OSM was
unable to complete the plans and specifications for well 14, so no
advertisement for that portion of the project was placed. The plans and
specifications for the supply line, however were completed and advertised. The
bids were due at 11:00 a.m. on the 9th of June. The following is a bid
tabulation for your review:
1. Latour Construction $ 42,317.50
2. Volk Sewer 6 Water $ 43,918.46
3. T 6 S Excavating $ 46,458.61
4. Northdale Construction $ 46,519.50
5. Burchville Construction S 47,467.08
6. 0 and P Contracting $ 47.917.50
7. Redstone Construction $ 48,230.75
8. S b L Excavating $ 49,603.00
9. B 6 D Underground $ 51,188.95
10. Bonine Excavating $ 57,775.00
I=
As can be seen by the above data the low bidder is Latour Construction for an
amount of $ 42,317 .50.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTION:
1. The first alternative would be to award the construction of the water
supply line to Latour Construction in the amount of $ 42,311.50.
2. The second alternative would be to withhold award of the bids until we
have received the bids for well #4. The maximum period we can hold these
bids is 45 days.
3. The third alternative would be to object the bids pending further research
on the city's water system improvements.
C. STAFF RECOMP7ENDATIONS:
The staff reserves it's recommendation until the completion of the workshop on
Monday, June 13, 1988.

City Council Agenda - 6/27/88
8A. Consideration of Resolusion on Awarding Bids on well #4 Project 88-04A. U.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Included in your previous agenda was an update on well p4 which contained
information about the iron and maganese levels in the water, we will be
discussing those at the workshop on Monday afternoon. The bids for well 14
were opened at 11:00 a.m. , Thursday, June 23, 1988. we received only one bid
for well and purp ;4, that bid was from E.H. Renner and Sons, Inc. of Elk
River, Minnesota. The bid was for $98,903.50. The bid breaks down as follows:
WELL CONSTRUCTION
DEVEIAPMENi AND TEST PUMPING $45,972.00
PUMP PITLESS UNIT AND
MISC. PIPING $31,361.50
ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS AND CONTROLS $13,500.00
RESTORATION AND CHAIN LINT( FENCING $ 8,050.00
TOTAL BASE BID $98,883.50
The first estimate for well 44 included in your April 25, agenda supplement
shows a construction cost for well ®4 of $75,000 which included a pitless unit
but a submersable pump. It to understood that John Badalich or Chuck Lepak
from OSM will be providing updates on the estimates done recently for well 04.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. First alternative would be to award the bid for well 14 to E.H. Renner for
the amwnt of $98,903.50.
2. Not award bid to Renner, but rebid the project. It to understood that
well builders are extremely busy at this time, and the fact that we only
received one bid indicates that it is a sellers market in the well
drilling business, not a buyers market. If the Council so chooses to
rebid, it might be best to wait until late fall or early winter to rebid.
C. STAFF REOOMiENDATIOIS:
The staff reserves it's reconmendation on well A4 until after the workshop
meeting.

Dear Mr. Wolfsteller:
One bid was received for the referenced project at 11:00 a.m. on June 23, 1988
and was opened and read aloud. E. H. Renner 8 Sons submitted the only bid in the
amount of $98,883.50, which is the correct bid amount; a $20.00 error was found
in 1!ne item 14 of the Proposal Form. The Engineer's estimate was $102,000.00
based on adding the estimated items of construction in our Feasibility Report of
April 25, 1988 on Well No. 4.
We recommend award of the contract to E. H. Renner 8 Sons, Inc., 15688 Jarvis

9. Consideration of Allowing abutting Property owner to Lease a Portion of
Undeveloped Linn Street. (R.W.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Mr. Jim Eisele owns the north half of Lot 41, Block #12 which fronts on 5 1/2
street adjasent to the new Fire Ball. Mr. Eisele has resently completed
constructing a garage on the property that he is using for restroa tion of his
cars and he resently inquired as to the possiblity of leasing from the city the
east half of undeveloped Linn Street for establishing a new driveway to his
property and for additional parking requirements for his business. Apparently
his driveway and parking area is directly in front of his garage structure
facing 5 1/2 Street, but he would like to expand his parking area to the east
onto the half of Linn Street and also relocate his enterance to this point.
Although the city has no plans at the present time to develope a street on the
right of way, the city has resently installed utitlities in the right of way.
As a result, it would probably not be in the best instrest of the city to
consider vacating the street and selling the property to the abutting property
owners, as it would have to be subject to easement rights for our utitlities.
The idea of leasing half of the street to Mr. Eisele does have a merit, in that
the city would not have to continue maintaining the area by cutting the grass
etc, provided a number of conditions were attached to any lease of this
nature. In discussing this request with the Public Works Director, John did
not feel there was a major problem with allowing Mr. Eisele to use half of the
right of way for his parking area and driveway approach, provided a written
agreement was entered into in which Mr. Eisele understood that if the city ever
had to tare up the parking area, curbing etc. , Mr. Eisele would be responsible
for all costs in repairing the damage. The likelyhood of the city ever needing
the get into this area for maintenance is remote, but we would certainly not
want to be responsible for restoring a parking lot or replacing curb if we did
allow Mr. Eisele to lease the property. Also, an agreement would have to
indicate that no permenent structure would be allowed other than parking
improvements unless the building was portable and easily removed.
A similiar type of arrangment was made with Raindance Corp. (Maus Foods)
allowing them to utilize a portion of Sixth Street right of way for their
parking lot. A lease was established for a portion of the right-of-way and a
aimiliar arrangement could be made with Mr. Eisele if desired. It is suggested
if approved, that the lease be established for a specific time period, say one
or two years at which time it could automaaticaly be renewed it the city so
desired.
j B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
` - 1. The first alternative would be to approve a lease arrangement with
Mr. Eisele for the east 40 feet of Linn Street abutting his property with
conditions attached as follows: 1) Lease would be for a specific period of
time. 2) Mr. Eisele would be responsible for all repairs it any blacktop,
curbing or other improvements that were damaged if the city had to
maintain it's sewer and or water lines. 3) No permenent structure would
be allowed within the leased area.
2. Second alternative, do not approve a lease arrangement.
3. The third alternative would be to hold a public hearing to consider
vacating the street -does not appear to be a reasonable alternative because
of our easements needed for utility lines.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
With Mr. Eisele's property only be half of a normal city lot, the staff
realizes there is slot of area for development into parking expantion.
Typically in the past, the city has allowed streets to be vacated and sold to
the abutting property owners at fair market value. In some cases the vacated
streets have contained easements for city utilities, thus restricting the owner
to using the property for parking lots etc. . only. In this case, Mr. Eisele
is not requesting to purchase the property, but only to lease it for parking
purposes. Although we have not typically done this in the past, the city did
allow Raindance Corporation to lease a portion of Sixth Street for their
parking lot and we would not necessarily be setting a precedent if allowed.
On the plus side, the city would not have to maintain the ease half of the
right-of-way and the expantion of Mr. Eisele's parking lot would probably
enhance the area and allow the additional landscaping around his garage. As a
result, the staff does not have a problem with a proper lease being
established in this case as it will benefit both the city and Mr. Eisele.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
None.
Oouncil Agenda - 6/13/88
10. Consideration of Ordinance Amendment Renumbering the Property and Equipment
Control Ordinance.
In March of 1983, the city council adopted an ordinance titled Sanitary Sewer
Discharge Controls. This ordinance was prepared by city engineer OSM as part
of the waste water treatment program requirements. Currently, all documents
pretaining to this ordinance are titled Chapter 14 and it resently came to our
attention that in May of 1983, the city adopted an ordinance titled Property
and Equipment Control which was also called Title 14.
As a result of the duplication, the following ordinance is recommended for
adoption which will eliminate the duplication and create a new Chapter 15 for
the property and equipment control ordinance.
B. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
To eliminate a duplication of chapters within the city ordinance, it is
recommended that the ordinance amendment be adopted retitling the property and
equipment control ordinance from 14 to 15.

>>• Consideration of Ordinance Amendment Clarifiying Liquor Liability Insurance
Requirements. (R.W.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Currently, Minnesota Statues require that no retail liquor license may be
issued by a city until the applicant provides proof of insurance coverage of at
least $50,000/100,000 for bodily injury and $10,000 for property damage along
with $50,000/100,000 for lost of means of support. These requirements are a
minimum and the city of Monticello had a policy of requiring at least $300,000
of liability coverage in the past.
In reviewing our ordinances in regards to on and off sale non -intoxicating
beer, set-up licenses, and on sale liquor licenses, only the ordinance section
pretaining liquor by the drink (set-up licenses makes reference to the liquor
liability insurance requirement of at least $300,000. Although, I recall that
the council previously established a policy requiring at least $300,000
coverage for on sale liquor licenses, club licenses and set-up licenses, for
some reason or another only Chapter 4, Set -Up License Requirements, indicate in
the ordinance the $300,000 amount. Although at a minimum, the state statues
diffinitly require liabilty insurance coverage before issuence of any liquor
license, the statue require only $50,000/100,000 worth of coverage and I
recommend to clarify this situation that Chapter 2 regarding liquor on sale,
off sale and club licenses be ammended to specificaly state that all applicants
shall file with the city the certificate of liability insurance in an amount
rr not 1 00,000. it would certainly seem to make sense if the city is
quiring $300,000 worth of liablity insurance for set-up licenses, it would
expect at least this amount for an on sale liquor license.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Adopted the ordinance amendment as proposed adding Section D 23-2-3
Application for License requiring $300,000 minimum liability insurance.
2. Not adopt the ordinance amendment but only require minimum state
standards.
C. STAFF RECC"ENDATIONS:
As long as I can remember, the city has required anywhere between $300,000 and
$500,000 in liquor insurance from applicants for on sale liquor licenses.
Although I do not know why it to not speciaficly listed under our liquor
ordinance, but only under the set-up license regulations, I recormnend that to
clearify this situation, the ordinance amendment be adopted. Many times, the
insurance carriers require a copy of our ordinance it we require more insurance
coverage than the state minimum.
D. REFERRENCES:
Copy of ordinance amendments proposed.
ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 88 -
THE COUNCIL OF THE CI:'Y OF MONTICELLO, MINNESOTA, DOES HEREBY ORDAIN:
That Section 3-2-3 (D) pertaining to liquor license applications be added as
follows:
3-2-3 (D) All applications for retail licenses shall file with the city a
certificate of liability insurance in an amount not less than three hundred
thousand dollars ($300,000).
Adopted this 13th day of June, 1988.

12. Consideration of Ratifying Union Contract. (R.W.)
A. REFERANCE AND BACKGROUND:
The current two year union contract with five members of the public works
maintenance staff expired April 1, 1988 and since early April, Mr. O'Connor,
the city's labor attorney, and myself have had several negotiating sessions
with Mr. Tim Connors, business agent of local union 49 and the local union
steward, Richard Klein. At this point, I beleive a new two year package has
been negotiated that will fall within the guidelines increases granted to
non-union personnel resently.
Briefly, the union opened their discussions with approximately ten requests
included expantion of overtime pay provisions, increases in group insurance
coverages, additional holiday for the day after Thanksgiving, expanded vacation
leave after ten years of service, additional sick leave benefits when injured
on the job, sevrence pay increases for unused sick leave accumulated, and
retirement insurance language for an employee 20 years of service. The final
request was for a ten percent salary increase over the two year period.
Our original request included clarifications in overtime pay, clarifications on
callback pay, a reduction in overtime compensation excluding holidays, vacation
or sick leave hours counted toward overtime compensation, additional language
changes incorporating discipline proceedures into the conctract, more safety
related language addition, a reduction in the sick leave sevrence accumulation,
and a salary offer of approximately 6.24 percent over two years or 68 cents
total increase.
After a few negotiating sessions were held, the issues were now done on both
sides to a few language changes, clarifications with group insurance increases
and wages being the primary considerations on the city's part. Our offer
included adding a new section which allowed management at it's discretion, to
temporarily assign one of the maintenance employees as a lead person who would
be required to carry a pager while on and off duty and carry out the basis
responsibilities of an Assistant Superintendent. The additional compensation
offered was $1.00 per hour when assigned by the employer. Although the city
would rarely use this provision, it does inable the city to assign a lead
person should our Street Superintendent and our Public Works Director, both be
gone for a length of time. We also included new language regarding safety
equipment usage by the employees and additional language which allowed the city
to discharge an employee who has been for medical reasons for more than 12
months unable to preform all of the duties of their required position. The
actual wage increaso offered was at this point 6.25 percent over two years and
we offered to increase the insurance coverage to the actual premium now being
paid. The union membership countered still requesting overtime pay for any
hours worked above eight in a day, rather than 40 hours in a week and requested
a provision to allow an employee who retires with 20 years or more of service
use their sevrence pay accumulation towards health insurance coverage until
they are eligible for medicare. Their last counter also included a 9.56
percent salary increase over two years totaling $1.05.
We immediately rejected any change in the overtime pay provisions and, although
it is something we can certainly look at in the future, any changes in regards
to retires health insurance coverage. With the elimination of these counter
proposals, the main issue came down to salary increases.
Our offer presented to the union then covered the following provisions:
1. The clarification of the half day holiday for Christmas Eve,
clarifation of callback pay, the addition of a new section allowing the city to
temporarily assign a lead person, an additional language change regarding
safety equipment, additional language allowing for termination for medical
reasons an employee unable to fill the normal job requirements, group health
insurance coverage allowances up to current premiums, any salary increase of
45 cents the first year of the contract and 50 cents the second year. This
offer presented to the union membership totaled approximately 8.5 percent
salary increases over the two years.
The membership has voted to except the proposal put forth by city with the
exception of the proposal on wages. A new contract would be agreeable by the
union if the wages were increased from our offer of 45 cents the first year to
50 cents. At the time we made our offer of 45 cents the first year, both Mike
O'Connor and myself figured that the union would counter with at least a 50
cent proposal the first year. We had figured that if the union would except
our latest proposal and even ask for the extra 5 cents the first year, the
total package would be both fair and consistant to the union compared to the
non-union employees. If the counsel excepts the contract as proposed, the
first year increase on salary amounts to 4.6 percent with the second year
totaling 4.4 percent. As far as actual salary increases, this is less than the
non-union employees reseved during 1988 of 5 percent and the negotiations
resulted in additional language changes which benefit the city. I believe the
negotiations resulted in reasonable give and take by both parties in arriving
at this settlement and I recommend that the city council ratify the contract as
presented.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. First alternative would be to ratify and execute the new two year contract
as proposed with a salary increase of 50 cents the first year.
2. The second alternative would be to reject their proposal of 50 cents the
first year and reaffirm my last offer of only 45 cents the first year of
the contract.
3. The third alternative would be to propose some type of counter offer other
than what I negotiated for their consideration or appoint a labor
subcommittee to continue negotiations.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the number of negotiating sessions that have taken place so far, I do
not believe continued negotiations will result in a much different contract
proposal. The additional language changes we were able to incorporate along
With a salary increase of 50 cents the first year (4.6 percent) and 50 cents
the second year (4.4 percent) appears very reasonable for both the city and the
union membership based on non-union personnel increases. I strongly recommend
the city council ratify a contract under Alternative number 1, that maintains
consistency across city effployee linea.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
Copy of our last offer and copy of union's esceptance provided first year is
increased to 50 cents per hour. A full union contract is available in my
office if you wish to compare items from the previous contract.

/ A single motion appproving these licenses should read similar to, "I move that
the following licenses be appoved effective July 1, 1988."
There is no supporting data for this item.
*It should be noted that the previously adopted fee achdules for
Sunday liquor has referred to charging the fee allowed by statue.
In 1987 this maximum fee has been increased to $200 per year from
$100 per year. Unless the council wishes to amend the fee schedule
to indicate only $100.00, the new fee will be $200 per year effective
with this renewal.
Council Agenda - 6/13/88
as Consideration of Conducting Community Survey. (J.O.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Some time ago Council requested that Staff develop plans for a community
survey. The purpose of the survey is to gain an understanding of the service
needs of the community and thereby assist Council in development of City
services and establishment of economic development policies.
B. DISCUSSION OF SURVEY PURPOSE:
Following are some general areas that could be addressed in the survey.
If you are interested in the concept of conducting a survey, I urge you to
review the subject areas below and add to the list as you see fit.
Determine percentage of low and moderate income households for the purpose
of development of Small Cities Development Program Grant Application
(Required with all SCDP grant applications).
Determine Housing needs of all segments of the community thereby
providing the HRA with information to use in conjunction with
redevelopment activities.
Determine how active the City should be with regards to obtaining metro
telephone service.
Determine quality of life issues through identification of service needs
of the community. Information gathered could pertain to but not be
limited to: Police protection, Recreation/Youth Activities, Ice Arena,
Retail development, job opportunities, solid waste collection, recycling,
animal control, noise pollution, Food Shelf needs, etc..
C. SURVEY METHODS - THREE ALTERNATIVES:
Staff has researched three methods by which the community could be surveyed.
Alternative I proposes a mail survey conducted by City Staff. Alternative II
proposes a mail survey conducted by the Small Business Development Center in
St. Cloud. Alternative III proposes a telephone survey conducted by the St.
Cloud State Political Science and Social Science departments. Following is a
table outlining the positive and negative advantages of each method and also a
staff recommendation.
Attached for your information is detail regarding Alternatives II and II.
If Council acts to order a community survey, all questions developed will be
presented to Council prior to implementation of the survey.

D. SUMMARY OF ALTERNATIVES:
ALTERNATIVE I
City staff capabilities in this area do not match Alternative II or III. The
cost for the City to conduct this survey is not significantly less than
Alternative II.
ALTERNATIVE II (Mail Survey) AND III (Telephone Survey)
Alternative IT would allow the City to ask more questions, address more issues,
etc. for $4,400 less than option III. However, the data will not be available
until the next budget cycle and the data collected may be slightly less
reliable than Alternative III.
Alternative III is the most expensive, however the information will be
available prior to the 1488 budget setting session. Not as many questions can
be asked utilizing a telephone survey, however the reliability of the data may
be slightly better.
E. RECOMMENDATION:
If Council desires to conduct a community survey, it is reconanended that
Alternative II or III be selected.'
F. ACTION REQUESTED:
If Council desires to conduct a community survey, motion to direct staff to
conduct survey as proposed under Alternative II or III.

Mr. Jeff O'Neil, Assistant City Administrator
City Hall
250 East Broadway
Monticello, MN 55362
Dear Mr. O'Neil:
Several days ago you requested a tentative proposal with
respect to a survey of Monticello residents. The following is a draft
of a proposal to give you some idea of possible methodology and
costs. As the following material suggests. the SCSU Survey has the
experience and expertise to successfully complete a survey of city
residents.
Understandinn of Ohiectives
This is by necessity very general at this time. However, it is our
understanding that you would like to obtain the opinions of a
scientific random sample of city residents regarding various aspects
of city policies and/or programs.
Such questions are frequently asked of residents in many cities and
almost always lend themselves to a telephone survey. In fact, if
your budget allowed, we could easily ask 60+ questions. The
proposed budget allows up to three hours of pre -survey consultation
and a pretest.
We propose a 500 respondent telephone survey using a systematic
random sample of names drawn from a master list of city residents.
The tentative sample design assumes that there are over 2,000
households in the city. If the budget allows, respondents will be
prenotified regarding their participation in the survey.
The survey will be co -directed by Dr. Steve Frank and Dr. John
Murphy who are co -directors of the SCSU Survey. Since the
beginning of the SCSU Survey in 1980 they have conducted many
state, regional and local telephone surveys. Clients have included the
Minnesota Departments of Public Safety and Human Services; The
Greater Minnesota Corporation; McKnight Corporation; City of St.
Cloud; various school districts; and private clients. About 10 paid,
experienced, fully trained interviewers will make the calls from
supervised interviewing stations in the SCSU Survey Research
Laboratory. All will be experienced interviewers used in past
surveys.
After the survey questions and instrument are developed and
tentatively approved by Monticello officials the instrument will be
pretested on about 10 Monticello residents and revisions made as
necessary. These pretest results will not be used in the final analysis
nor will these respondents be called again.
Several steps will be taken to ensure that the telephone sample of
Monticello residents will be representative of the larger adult
population. The city agrees to provide a current list of names,
addresses and local phone numbers of residents. After residents
have been systematically selected they will be notified by postcard.
They will be told that they will be called by SCSU interviewers
within several days and the overall purpose of the survey. This pre-
notification can be omitted resulting in some financial savings but a
slight reduction in completion rate. The minimum completion rate
should be about 6510 (but 75% plus is a realistic goal). Completion
rates means that once an eligible household has been reached the
designated respondent agrees to participate in the survey. Any rate
of 5070 or less almost guarantees that the sample is not
representative of the larger city population and only those residents
most interested in some parts of the survey participated. In order to
reach hard -to -get respondents who tend to be younger, employed,
more affluent as compared to first call respondents each number will
be called at least three times over three different days and times.
Appointments will be made as necessary to interview the designated
respondent at her/his convenience. Most calls will be made on
weekends and 5-9:30 p.m. weekdays. Day calls will be made as
necessary.
As this is a paper and pencil survey all results will be hand coded
and double checked. Open-ended questions should be avoided as
they have lower socio-economic bias, present subjective coding
problems and add to survey costs. The budget allows for 1-2 open-
ended questions. Open-ended questions will be coded using a
standardized coding schedule. Data entry will be done by SCSU's data
entry section of our Academic Computer Center. All data entry will
be verified using a double entry system.
After the data is checked over the samplc will be weighted as
necessary. Weighting is a standard statistical technique to make sure
the sample is representative of the population. If, for example. the
percentage of Monticello residents who are males 18 years of age
and older is 49% and the sample is 46% the sample will be weighted
to reflect the correct percentages. The city will provide a list of all
residents with names and phone numbers and census data to
compare the sample's demographic results with the total population.
To make sure the sample is representative the city will attempt to
provide the following (data probably available from census and State
Planning Office material):
percent of population 18 and older
males/females
by age categories such as 18.25. 65+, etc.
other demographic variables that may be asked in the
survey for which data may be available
Survey Accuracy
In samples of 500+ interviews the error due to sampling and other
random effects will be approximately plus/minus 4% at the 95% level
of confidence. This means that were we to draw 20 random samples
of the city and administer the same instrument using the same
methodology it would be expected that the overall findings would be
no greater/less than 4% of the stated findings only one time in
twenty. However, in all sample surveys there are other possible
sources of error for which precise estimates cannot be calculated.
The overall sample is large enough to examine some subsamples such
as breakdowns by gender, age of respondent and length of residency.
For subsamples, such as gender, the sample error is larger. Sample
error is also influenced by the breakdown for each response item.
Responses in which respondents show more units will have a smaller
sample error than will more divided responses.

• Cost assumes that after names have been selected from the master
list the city will provide mailing labels to affix to postcards.
Cost also assumes up to three hours of director meeting time with
city officials in presurvey meetings and up to three hours in post
survey meetings and public sessions. Additional hours can be
negotiated. Also assumed in costs are one copy of a complete
computer printout of all frequency breakdowns and one computer
printout of crosstabulation of questions by demographic and other
key variables. A report describing the surveys methodology and
procedures will be included. Barring major problems the results and
report will be available within 15 working days of the completion of
the last interview. Interviewing will tale place over four days.

We know this is higher than originally estimated and another
estimate you received. However, this will give you a quality sample
and responses that will truly reflect the opinions of city residents
and meet the approval of any funding agency.
Thank you for your consideration.

Council Update - 6/13/88
UPDATE WELL 43
Well 03 has been completed at an anticipated capacity of 600 gallons
per minute, well below our expectations. The contractor has yet to
abandon test well a3 in the area. We are currently processing a
second payment request, holding 5 percent and the cost of abandonment
of test well i3. There is currently a controversy over the materials
for well #3. The contractor wishes to be paid for 30 feet of 8 inch
stainless steel screen that he did not put in the hole. More
information will be provided at final payment request.

Council Update - 6/13/88
UPDATE WELL ;4
John Badalich was unable to complete the work necessary for plans and
specifications on well f4 so that it could be bid with the water
supply line on June 9th. The well has been advertised for bid
openings on June 23, 1988, for review at the June 27, 1988 meeting.
As we discussed at an earlier meeting, I took additional water
samples of test well $4 to analyze for lead. The lead content of the
water proved to be as I indicated, less than the detectable limit of
one microgram per liter.
During the meeting at which the council authorized advertisment for
bids for well 04 ODuncilman Warren Smith raised the question about a
possible trend developing in the manganese levels of test well 44. I
therefore had another set of samples analyzed for iron, manganese and
calcium hardness. A summary of all tests is as follows:
WELL WATER TESTS
TEST
WELL WELL TEST WELL A4
WELL A2 A 3 N 3 let 2nd 3rd 4th AVG.
IRON 0.09 ms/l 0.34 0.14 0.28 0.51 0.30 0.48 0.39
MANGANESE 0.66 ms/l 0.90 0.84 0.69 0.74 0.77 0.78 0.75
CALCIUM HRDNS 219 ms/] 203 N/A 235 180 190 190 199
The iron content appears to be jumping up and down, this may be due
to the formation not being fully developed in this small test well.
The manganese levels on the other hand, when one looks at the overall
picture do show an upward trend as Warren indicated. Whether this
trend will continue or whether a slight drop will occur with the
completion of well #4 as it did with well #3 is uncertain. The
manganese levels found are still within treatment range and hopefully
would level off before reaching the concentrations found in test well
N3. The levels of hardness appear to be fairly consistent from the
last three testa with an overall average 199 milagrams per liter.
Indications still are that we will be able to get more than 1500
gallons per minute out of well 44. It is conceivable that we could
find a better quality of water by looking elsewhere, but we get
further and further away from our pumphouse 13 and as we do the
extension of the additional supply piping becomes costly. We can
discuss this issue further at the workshop if anyone so desires.
