Members Absent: None.
Approval of Minutes.
Motion was made by Bill Fair, seconded by Warren Smith, and unanimously
carried to approve the minutes of the regular meeting held November 9,
1987.
Citizens Comments/Petition, Requests, and Complaints.
Mr. Roger Belsaas, Vice President of the Monticello Lions Club,
appeared before the City Council to seek permission for the Lions Club
to proceed with their planned dedication for the new Monticello
bridge. Mr. Belsaas indicated that the Lions Club had participated in
the dedication of the old bridge in 1929. At this time, the Lions Club
has not designated a date for the planned dedication. John Simola
stated that the bridge completion is expected to be in August or
September of 1988. The City Council granted permission to the Lions
Club to proceed with their plans for the dedication of the new bridge
in 1988. They also suggested that the Lions Club work with John
Simola.
Joy Swenson, President of the Historical Society, appeared before the
City Council and requested the granting of a gambling license for pull
tabs at the Legion Club. With no further discussion, Fran Fair made a
motion to take no action in regards to opposition of granting a
gambling license for the historical society. Warren Smith seconded the
motion. Motion passed 5-0.
Consideration of General Concept Stage Review of PUD Known as Highland
Heights one. Applicant, Rivera Financial and Development Company.
Mr. Dennis Taylor, representing George Rivera, appeared before the City
Council and reviewed the general concept known as the Highland Heights
One. 'he general concept stage shows only how the developer could
service the property from existing cervices. This planned unit
development was reviewed by John Simola, Gary Anderson, and OSM
engineers. John Simola indicated two concerns about the planned unit
development. one was the need to upgrade Marvin Road to the City
standards at least the length of the development from Highway 25. The
second concern is the possible congestion of traffic at the
intersections on Highway 25. Ibis is due to the number of driveways
and the location of the driveways as planned.
Council Minutes - 11/23/87
Of concern by the City Council was how this development would be served
by water and sewer. John Simla said to serve the development with
water and sewer, a lift station would be required, either a temporary
lift station or a long-term lift station. John further indicated to
the City Council that the determination of the lift station would be
addressed with the preliminary plat stage. Fran Fair made a motion to
approve the general concept stage review of a planned unit development
to be known as Highland Heights One. Warren Smith seconded the
motion. with no further discussion, the motion passed 5-0.
Consideration of Preliminary Plat Review of a Proposed New Subdivision
Plat. Applicant, City of Monticello.
The City of Monticello is proposing to replat Lots 9 and 10, Block 2,
Oakwood Industrial Park, into six smaller lots. To replat these into
six smaller lots, we require a subdivision plat to accompany this. A
preliminary plat has been prepared by Dennis Taylor, Taylor Land
Surveyors, and meets all the minimum requirements for a preliminary
plat stage. The rationale behind reducing the lot sizes is to increase
the marketability of our property. The total cost for the improvements
is approximately $75,000. In order for the City to recover their cost
of the project, the City is looking to sell the lots for approximately
$15,000 per acre. John Badalich suggested for cost effectiveness the
City combine this bid with another spring project bid. Bill Fair made
a motion to approve the preliminary plat review of the proposed new
subdivision plat. Fran Fair seconded the motion. With no further
discussion, the motion passed 5-0.
6. Consideration of Sketch Plan Review for a Proposed New Subdivision
Plat. Applicant, Tom Brennan.
Mr. Tom Brennan appeared before the City Council and presented a sketch
plan for his unplatted land west of Minnesota Street. Mr. Brennan is
proposing to subdivide these two existing unplatted tracts of land into
some type of light commercial, multiple family, and/or single family
development. The current zoning for the majority of this property is
PZM (performance zone mixed). This unplatted land consists of slopes
and drop-offs. Mr. Brennan's plans are to grade the area, construct
cul-de-sacs, and construct walkout dwellings to best utilize the
contour of the land. The City Council informed Mr. Brennan of the City
Ordinance for park dedication of a new subdivision. The ordinance
states the developer shall provide developable land or cash equivalent
to 10 percent of raw land cost. Warren Smith made a motion to approve
the sketch plan review of a proposed new subdivision plat for the
unplatted land west of Minnesota Street. Bill Fair seconded the
motion. With no further discussion, the motion passed 5-0.

Council Minutes - 11/23/87
7. Consideration of Final Payment on Gazebo in Ellison Park.
The City Council awarded the contract for the construction of the gazebo
in Ellison Park to Blonigen Builders of Monticello. The original
contract cost was $8,987 for the construction of the gazebo. However,
during construction of the building, three items needed attention,
therefore increasing the budget by $308 .95, bringing the total
construction cost for the project to $9,295.95. The items needing
attention were the roofing felt underneath the cedar shingles, additional
shingles, and a block support and cedar plank to reinforce the railing.
Additional features planned for the spring of 1988 are ramps, decorative
sidewalks, ornamental lighting and outlets, and sealing of the
structure. John Simola remarked about the good workmanship for the
project; and Mayor Grimsmo indicated that the gazebo was a good fit to
the environment of the park. Bill Fair rade a motion to make final
payment to Blonigen Builders in the amount of $9,295.95. Fran Fair
seconded the motion. with no further discussion, the motion passed 5-0.
8. Consideration of Downtown Streetscape Improvement.
Koropchak informed the City Council of Monticello's Downtown
Redevelopment Program or Streetscape Plan, stating the original concept
was to include 1) the upgrading of pedestrian walkways, 2) the lowering
of street lighting; and 3) the placement of plantings to soften the
concrete or asphalt right—of-ways. On October 8, 1987, an informational
meeting was held at the Monticello City Hall. Mr. Geoff Martin, Design
Planner for Dahlgren, Shardlow, and Uban Inc. , presented the public and
property owners with two new design plana; and the City staff had
prepared preliminary finance options. Its result of this meeting was the
establishment of a volunteer committee and the general consensus to go
along with Concept A design plan. Since that time, the committee has met
twice. At their last meeting held on November 12, the consnittee's
general consensus was to approve the preliminary design plan as presented
that day by Mr. Martin with recommendation for the City staff to prepare
preliminary finance plan options and a maintenance plan for the approved
preliminary design plan. City staff was to present the approved
preliminary design plan, preliminary finance plan, and the maintenance
plan to the City Council at their November 23 meeting for recommendation,
direction, or input back to the committee. This being said meeting,
Mr. Geoff Martin updated the City Council on the design plan Concept A,
indicating the study includes the areas of Broadway, Pine Street, and the
three major downtown parking lots. The City Council reviewed the five
preliminary finance plan options: Option 1 being 77 percent assessment,
23 percent ad valorem, Option 2 being 70 percent assessment, 30 percent
ad valorem; Option 3 being 61 percent akasessment, 39 percent ad valorem;
Option 4 being 20 percent assessment, 80 percent ad valorem; and
Option 5, parking lots being 100 percent ad valorem with the remaining
total project cost being 70 percent assessed and 30 percent ad valorem.
Council Minutes - 11/23/87
The majority of the City Council agreed that it was time the City
invested in the downtown area, that the City needed to identify their
downtown area and to invest in the downtown area. Dan Blonigen did not
agree with the majority of the City Council. He felt the cost of the
project outweighed its benefits and that it was designed to help a few
individual businesses. Mayor Grimsmo stated he was sorry to see that
the concept did not include apartments above buildings. Fran Fair
agreed with Arve Grimsmo and also indicated that with the improvement
of downtown, individual businesses would be encouraged to upgrade their
store fronts. The City Council continued to discuss the 20 percent
assessment and the 80 percent ad valorem. Dan Blonigen indicated he
could consider 50/50, but not 20/80. Koropchak further presented an
option for the City Council to consider. The option included Block 35
store backs. The concept would be for the property owners to grant the
City an easement for parking and landscaping and for the City to
maintain. General consensus of the City Council was that the item was
a separate issue to be assessed differently. Stan Douglas of Golden
Valley Furniture suggested that a City Council member or a City staff
member poll the property owners to see whether they were in favor or
not in favor of such a project. :fie City Council agreed that this was
a good idea after costs have been determined. Fran Fair made a motion
to recommend to the committee Option 4, 20 percent assessment and
80 percent ad valorem based on the preliminary figures excluding Block
35 store back improvements and this without commitment by the City
Council. Warren Smith seconded the motion. The City Council requested
that the City Administrator confirm the figures and determine the
increase of property tax for a $50,000 home. Voting in favor of the
motion was Arve Grimsmo, Bill Fair, Fran Fair, and Warren Smith.
Voting in opposition of the motion was Dan Blonigen.
9. Consideration of Update on Old Highway 25 Bridge.
Since August of 1987, John Simola has been in contact with the
Minnesota Department of Transportation and other parties involved who
make a determination as to whether or not the City of Monticello could
retain the old highway bridge as an extension of the west Bridge Park.
Mr. Simola began working with Johnson Brothers Construction and their
bridge engineers to determine whether or not the two bridges could
remain in place. Johnson Brothers prepared a plan showing the
revamping of the approach abutment to the old bridge. This plan was
presented to the Minnesota Department of Transportation on September 2,
1987. The general consensus of all parties involved at that time was
that they agreed that the project appeared feasible. Research was done
on the liability question of the bridge. Liability premiums generally
don't go up unless there is a significant exposure to potential
liability. The liability risk could be reduced significantly by proper
inspection, engineering and maintenance, and pedestrian protection
could limit the liability. Options were to consider saving the entire
bridge or to save three spans of the bridge. Preliminary estimates to
obtain the whole bridge and have it in good serviceable condition
i
Council Minutes - 11/23/87
would be in the neighborhood of $132,000; and very preliminary
estimates indicate the City would need to set aside approximately
$10,000 per year to maintain the whole bridge for the future. This
completes a very brief summary on the research to save the Monticello
bridge .
At the City Council meeting, John Simola reported that as of Friday,
November 21, 1987, all indications were go ahead for the City to
acquire the bridge. At 4:30 p.m. on Monday, November 23, John received
a telephone call from Jim LaBoe stating MN/DOT will not sell the bridge
to Monticello. Mr. LaBoe's two main reasons for not selling the bridge
were 1) the benefit to the contractor. The original contract called
for the construction of a new bridge and the demolition of the old
bridge. 2) The second reason was the amount of paperwork required.
With the last minute turn of events, John Simola recommended that
Johnson Brothers Construction demolish the bridge. Mayor Grimsmo
thanked John Simola for his time and research and further indicated he
was going to recommend to the City Council to dismiss the idea of
saving the bridge because of the lack of public interest.
Bill Fair made a motion to abandon the idea of saving the bridge for an
extension of the city parkway system. Fran Fair seconded the motion.
John Simola reminded the City Council that the final decision to
acquire the bridge was still March 14, 1988. with no further
discussion, the motion passed 5-0.
10. Discussion of the Realignment of the Intersection of County Road 39
East and County Road 75.
This item involves the purchase of right-of-way from Gladys Hoglund for
construction of the new County Road 39 East. The City and the County
would share the cost of the purchase of the right-of-way. The County
appraised the agricultural land at approximately $20 ,000 per acre.
Attorney Jim Metcalf, representing Gladys Hoglund, indicated there was
no tax advantage for Mrs. Hoglund to sell her property. The County has
addressed a letter dated November 19, 1987, with a final offer of
$38,000 to purchase the land from Gladys Hoglund. Deadline for
response of this letter is November 30, 1987. It is City staff's
understanding that Jim Metcalf will respond to the letter of
November 19.
The County has gone to significant lengths to determine the fair
property value and to negotiate with Gladys Hoglund. If the final
offer is rejected by Gladys Hoglund, the County's decision is to
proceed with condemnation of the property. At this time, the County
requests support from the Monticello City Council to 1) delay the
project] or 2) support the County's decision for condemnation. The
City needs to concern itself with the necessary improvements of
utilities that would need to go in prior to the construction of County
Road 39 East. The project would include watermain and sewer

installation. Councilmember Bill Fair was not in favor of constructing
a new road and thereafter construction of City improvements at a later
date. Bill Fair made a motion to support the county's decision for
condemnation should the final offer to Gladys Hoglund be rejected. The
motion included the ordering of a feasibility study to serve East
County Road 39 with sewer to Mississippi Drive and the setting of a
public hearing at which to discuss proposed improvements. The motion
was seconded by Llan Blonigen. With no further discussion, the motion
passed 5-0. See Resolution 87-31.
11. Consideration of Bills for the Month of November.
Motion was made by Warren Smith, seconded by Fran Fair, and unanimously
carried to approve the bills for the month of November as presented.

SPECIAL MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL
Monday, December 7, 1987 - 6:30 p.m.
Members Present: Arve Grimsmo, Bill Fair, Warren Smith, Dan Blonigen,
Fran Fair
Members Absent: None
A special meeting of the Monticello City Council was held at 6:30 p.m. on
December 7, 1987, for the purpose of discussing and establishing a salary
pool for 1988 salaries for non-union personnel. The Mayor called the meeting
to order and briefly reviewed the procedures that have been used in the past
three or four years regarding salary adjustments for non-union personnel.
Mr. Grimsmo noted that in the past the Council has established a cost of
living adjustment plus an additional amount of money that the Administrator
has used for merit/performance pay above the estimated consumer price index.
In regard to the estimated CPI index for 1988, Administrator Wolfsteller
indicated that the best estimate has been placed at 5 percent and recommended
that at the minimum, a 5 percent cost of living index be allowed. In
addition, if the Council was agreeable to providing additional merit or
performance adjustments above the cost of living, an additional percentage or
dollar amount could be set up. Councilmember Blonigen had concerns about
setting up a pool above 5 percent, as he felt this amount may be above what
private employers are granting for increases during 1988. In addition, he
had concerns for an automatic adjustment for all employees, as possibly there
may be reasons for some employees not even receiving a guaranteed cost of
living increase because of performance or other reasons.
The Council then discussed the continuation of merit/performance increases
being granted by the Administrator without guidelines being established for
these increases. Mayor Grimsmo also noted that merit/performance increases
should not be automatic but should relate to extra responsibility of the
employee or special tasks performed or possibly longevity should be
considered. It was the general consensus of the Council that in the future
before merit/performance increases are considered by the Administrator, a
list of criteria be established that all employees are aware of that would
qualify for receiving an increase above the cost of living estimate.
It was noted by the Administrator that for 1987 the expected inflation index
was estimated to be 5 percent and that most employees received increases in
this neighborhood. For 1987, all employees received a 4 percent adjustment
for cost of living and after considering merit or performance adjustment, the
majority of the employees were actually just keeping up with cost of living
increases. As a result, based on the estimated CPI index for next year, a
motion was made by Fran Fair, seconded by Warren Smith, that a total salary
pool equaling 5 percent as a cost of living adjustment with an additional
1 percent be established for performance adjustment or merit increase as
determined by the Administrator. All Council members were in favor except
Blonigen, who felt that the 5 percent increase was more than sufficient for
most employees.
v
Special Council Minutes - 12/7/87
The Mayor then turned the discussion to the Administrator's salary. The
Administrator indicated that he had not presented a formal request for a
specific dollar amount but asked that the Council consider allowing the
Administrator or other employees, if they so desire, the ability to use part
of the salary increases to purchase long-term disability insurance. It was
noted by the Administrator that the request for the City purchasing long-term
disability insurance for the affected employees would not be an increase
above any dollar amount of the increase established but simply would permit
an employee to add an additional benefit in lieu of a monetary raise for this
benefit.
Mayor Grimsmo supported an increase for the Administrator similar to the
6 percent pool established for other personnel. It was noted that school
administration staff had received similar raises in the 6 percent plus area,
and he felt the Administrator's salary for the City should also receive the
same increase. Councilmember Smith, in noting that Wolfsteller has assumed
extra duties since taking over the position as Administrator until another
position is filled, also supported an increase in the 6 percent area.
Councilmember Blonigen did not feel an increase of 6 percent was warranted at
this time due to Wolfsteller only being promoted to the position recently and
felt that more time should lapse before another increase of this nature was
allowed. He indicated an increase of a lesser amount would seem more
appropriate. Councilmember Bill Fair did not see any problems with
supporting the 5 percent increase to cover the cost of living but felt at
this time that it would be hard for the Council, as the Administrator's
supervisor, to warrant a merit or performance justification, as he was new to
the position and also did not feel that enough time had lapsed to allow a
proper performance review. He indicated he supported a 5 percent increase
rather than 6 percent, and that the Council could, during 1989 salary
negotiations, review the performance of the Administrator and adjust the
salary accordingly.
After further discussion, a motion was made by Bill Fair, seconded by Fran
Fair, to grant a 5 percent increase in the Administrator's salary for 1988
and allow the Administrator and other employees, if they choose, to purchase
an individual long-term disability policy to be deducted from their total
salaries paid by the City. Voting in favor was Bill Fair, Fran Fair, Warren
Smith. opposed were Arve Crimsmo and Dan Blonigen. It was noted that the
Mayor's opposition to the 5 percent increase was because he felt a 6 percent
increase was warranted. Mr. Blonigen's opposition was because he felt more
time should lapse before the Administrator was granted an additional raise
over the recent promotion.
The being no other business, the meeting was adjourned.

Consideration of Variance Appeal to Allow Construction of a Building
Addition within the Side Yard Setback Requirements. Applicant, American
Legion Post #260. (G.A.)
A. REFERENCE AHD BACKGROUND:
The American Legion is proposing to construct a 6 -foot addition onto the
westerly portion of their building which faces Elm Street. "'he
construction of this addition would be within the sideyard setback
requirement. The two existing entries on the westerly portion of the
building are already 2 1/2 feet encroachment within the sideyard setback
requirement. The encroachment which the American Legion is applying for
is to be within 11 feet of the sideyard setback requirement.
You will note that construction has already begun with the footings and
foundation wall for the proposed addition. Mr. Floyd Markling,
representing the American Legion, went to each of the City Council
members and supposedly did receive permission from each of the City
Council members to proceed with the construction of the building
addition, footings, and foundation wall. However, Mr. Markling also
indicated that the consent he received from each of the City Council
members was only to have the building addition footings and foundation
wall installed. He also indicated that when his variance request comes
before the City Council at their December 14, 1987, meeting, if the City
Council decided to deny his variance request, Mr. Markling indicated that
r,fter that time the footings and the foundation wall that are currently
installed would be covered over.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1 . Approve the variance request to allow construction of a building
addition within the sideyard setback requirement.
2. Deny the variance request to allow construction of a building
addition within the sideyard setback requirement.
C. STAFF RFX.'O14iFNDATION:
City staff reenmmends denial of the variance request to allow
construction of the building addition Within the sideyard setback
requirement. City staff feels that we see no hardship created by this
variance request to allow an addition to be put on to the existing
building when adequate ingress and egress to this building through the
existing entries already constructed within the sideyard setback
requirement are sufficient. However, your decision may differ from our
recommendation in that our recommendation is based on the failure of the
applicant to demonstrate the hardship in hie variance request.

Consideration of Conditional Use Request to Allow Auction Sales in a B-3
(highway business) Zone. Applicant, Martie's Farm Service. (G.A.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Martie's Farm Service is proposing to conduct auction sales at their
current facility for the purpose of selling baled quantities of hay and
straw.
Auction sales are an allowable use in a B-3 (highway business) zone only
as a conditional use. These conditions, as indicated under the
conditional use section for auction sales, deals primarily with
activities of an auction sale around the entire site of the proposed
auction sale. Most of these conditions deal with conditions that would
have to be addressed if this property abutted any residential zone. With
this not the case, the majority of these conditions do not apply to this
particular conditional use request.
Mr. Martie has found a need for this type of service at his current
facility to service the need of his existing customers. Mr. Martie is
proposing to conduct the auction sales, which may last from one to two
hours at the most, depending on the quantities of hay and straw he has to
sell. These would be conducted in bi-monthly or monthly auction sales
depending on the need. If these were allowed and would continue on to
next year, they would start on or shortly after ".hanksgiving and continue
until the first part of March.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Approve the conditional use request to allow auction sales in a 0-3
(highway business) zone.
2. Deny the conditional use request to allow auction sales in a B -i
(highway business) zone.
C. STAFF RECOMMPNDATION:
City staff recommends approval of the conditional use request to allow
auction sales in a D-3 (highway business) zone. City staff recognizes
that many of the conditions under the auction sales section in our
ordinance are not applicable in this case. However, should development
occur to the west of this site, the applicant is aware that some of these
conditions may kick in on or before that time. Staff also recommends
that the conditional use be granted for a period not to exceed one year
at which time it will be reviewed by the Zoning Administrator and with no
complaints or conflicts arising from this type of event that it be
allowed to he renewed.

6. Consideration of Feasibility Study on East County Road 39 Improvements
and Calling for a Public Hearing. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
At the last meeting in November, the City Council ordered the City staff
to proceed with the utility improvements for East County Road 39 to the
area near Mississippi Drive. OSM will present their feasibility study at
Monday evening's meeting. As we discussed at that last meeting, I
prepared a questionnaire along with a letter of explanation to those
residents between Mississippi Drive and the eastern city limits. Since
there has been some interest by the tree farm and Mr. John Sandberg, I
also sent them a questionnaire. Copies of the blank questionnaire and
letter are enclosed for your review. At the time of the drafting of this
agenda supplement, we have received several of the questionnaires back.
The majority of the questionnaires at this time indicate positive results
for extension of sewer and water to the eastern city limits. I will have
a tabulation of the results of these questionnaires at Monday evening's
meeting. If the majority of the people in that area are in favor of
utility extension, the City Council could request that the feasibility
study be modified to include extension of services beyond Mississippi
Drive to the eastern border of the city limits. This modified
feasibility study could then be presented at the January 11, 1988,
meeting just prior to a public hearing on the subject.
01
At this time, I have not received preliminary information from OSM as to
the content of the feasibility study to Mississippi Drive. I have,
however, included for your review a short, simple. feasibility study I did
for the Gladys Hoglund property which I presented to James Metcalf. This
simple feasibility study could give you some food for thought for Monday
evening's meeting.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
1. The first alternative could be to accept the feasibility study to
Mississippi Drive and order a public hearing on the proposed
improvements for the January 11 meeting.
2. The second alternative, if the results from the questionnaire warrant
it, would he to modify the feasibility study to include utility
service to the eastern boundary of the city limits. OSM would need
some direction as to the area to be studied, whether it would be only
the city itself or a portion of the OAA area in addition to the city
property. This modified feasibility study would be due January 11
and would be presented just prior to a public hearing on the proposed
improvements.

3. The third alternative could be to not accept the feasibility study
and to delay the installation of improvements. This would not be in
the best interest of the City of Monticello or Wright County and
could present problems with the County Road 39 improvement project
itself.
C. STAFF REXXMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the public works Director that the Council
consider either alternative number one or number two depending upon the
outcome of the questionnaire summery.

Dear Jim:
Administrator:
a¢x Watstener This is intended to be a "very rough" initial feasibility study of
PUblW Woes: proposed improvements to the service road and County Road 39. They
Jona S+,rw+a are based upon your engineer's statements that sewer is not needed
cae�n�a �rq: along County Road 39 for the full length and you can pick up sewer
Economic Development: near Mississippi Drive. The costs do not include engineering,
,sore KOMM21811, inspections, legal or bonding costs, which could add another 20-258.
Also, the actual assessments would be determined later, especially
the assessments, if any, for sewer near the intersection of
Mississippi Drive.

Council Agenda - 12/14/87
7. Consideration of Setting a Public Hearing on the Proposed Downtown
Streetscapes improvement Project. (R.W.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
On October 8, 1987, the first informational meeting was held at City Hall
with interested downtown business people at which time Mr. Geoff Martin,
Design Planner for Dahlgren, Shardlow, and Uban, presented two new
designs on possible streetscape improvements. The general consensus at
that meeting was to go with Concept A Design Plan, and a volunteer
committee was established to define the design. The committee has met a
number of times, most recently the day after the last Council meeting,
November 24, and continued to work on refining the designs for the
streetscape project. 7%e committee, as a whole, certainly seemed in
favor of the Council's indication of assessing only 20 percent of the
project with 80 percent being on ad valorem taxes; and 011ie has been
working on an approximate assessment roll for the affected property
owners based on this assumption. In refining the cost of the project,
the total project has been estimated at $640,000, which would make
approximately $130,688 as the assessable portion with the remainder being
on ad valorem.
The committee at this point feels enough information has been gathered
and conveyed to the City Planner regarding the design changes and feels
that an additional information/public hearing should be formally held by
the Council on the proposed improvement project. In discussing the
project schedule with Mr. Martin, he recommended that the Council hold a
public hearing as soon as reasonably possible on the proposed iirprovement
to allow his firm sufficient time to prepare plans and specifications.
The committee discussed whether an informational meeting by the committee
with the planner presenting the final design selected should be scheduled
before the actual public hearing required by statutes for an improvement
project or whether the Council public hearing would suffice. The intent
of a meeting being established prior to the meeting of the Council
ordering preparation of plans and spec's would be to allow the committee
additional time to address any concerns or questions the property owners
may have on their assessment or the project in general.
The Consulting Planner recommended that if at all possible, the Council
proceed with ordering plans and specifications around January 14 to allow
sufficient time for their firm to complete the plans, aevertise for bids,
and award a contract for early spring construction. The options exist
for the Council to hold a special meeting prior to the regularly
scheduled January 11 meeting for the purpose of the public hearing on the
proposed improvement project or to hold a public hearing on January 11 if
they feel they could also make a decision on ordering plans and
specifications that night. Naturally, the other option would be to
direct the committee to hold an informational meeting prior to the normal
first Council meting in January at which time the committee, along with
-5-
Council Agenda - 12/14/87
staff, could address any concerns of the project and provide this
information to the Council at the January 11 meeting, at which time
preparation of plans and spec's could be ordered.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Assuming the streetscape project will proceed and be financed as a city
improvement project under Chapter 429, a public hearing will eventually
have to be held on the project.
1. The first alternative would be to establish a public hearing as a
special meeting January 4 to allow the Council time to analyze any
comments made prior to the regular Council meeting, at which time the
plans and specifications could be ordered.
2. The second alternative would be to hold the public hearing at the
regular Council meeting of January 11 if the Council would feel
comfortable immediately after the public hearing ordering plans and
specifications to proceed.
3. The third alternative would be to direct the volunteer committee to
hold an informational meeting on the project prior to the January 11
Council meeting for input before the regular required public hearing
of January 11.
C. STAFF REC'OMENDATION:
If the Council feels comfortable with the streetscape project public
hearing being held on January 11 and at the same meeting order
preparation of plans and specifications, I would recommend that a special
meeting not be held and the public hearing be held on January 11. If
there is consensus amongst the members that an additional informational
meeting he held earlier than January 11 so that the Council is aware of
all the input prior to ordering plans and specs, the Council could still
hold a public hearing officially on January 11 but recommend to the
committee that an informational meeting be held earlier at their
discretion. As always, I'm certainly not in favor of holding special
meetings unnecessarily, and one of these two methods would certainly
eliminate the need for a special meeting and still accomplish the purpose
of providing information to the public.

8. Consideration of Approving Change Order !2 and Authorizing Final Payment
on the 1986-7 Project - S 6 L Excavating. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The above referenced project has been completed and the City Engineer has
recommended final payment. Project 86-7 consisted of major improvements
to the Lauring Lane/Washington Street area. Included in this project
were the installation of a large diameter storm sewer, curb and gutter,
street construction, sanitary sewer, and water improvements, as well as
the creation of a new city park. In addition, Project 86-7 extended
watermain south down County Road 118 from Chelsea Road so that the new
school may be served by water.
Change Order +2 involves some tree removal and disposal in the area of
the City's new park and additional grading that was needed along Fallon
Avenue near the apartments due to the severe slope. The total value of
Change Order 92 is $2,500. Due to Change Orders 1 6 2, as well as some
internal project overruns and the grading of the new city park, the total
project cost came to $295,837.70. This results in a final payment due
the contractor, S 6 L Excavating, of $26,470.30, of which the City
Engineer is recommending that the City withhold $2,000 for corrective
turf restoration in 1988.
Of the total construction cost, $271,640.70 is related to the
Construction 5/Lauring Lane Project. The tax increment budget for this
improvement with contingencies totals $271,600. we, therefore, are
$40.70 over budget for this portion of the project. For the County
Road 118 waternain extension, our original budgets indicated a cost of
$32,060 for construction. So we are significantly under that portion of
the project, as the construction cost was only $24.197.
After final payment is authorized, we will assemble all of the
engineering costs, testing costs, bond costs, and we will be desessing
the Malone property, the Rand Mansion property, and the school for their
benefiting portions of the project.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Alternative number one would be to authorize final payment to S 6 L
Excavating in the amount of $26,470.30 upon receipt of the proper
state documents and lien waivers. This alternative would include the
withholding of $2,000 for corrective turf restoration in 1988.
2. The second alternative would be not to authorize final payment to
S 6 L at this time. Since S 6 L has completed the project, this
alternative does not appear to be applicable.
-7-
Council Agenda - 12/14/87
C. STAFF R XM94ENDATI0N:
It is the recommendation of the public Works Director and City Engineer
that the City Council opt for alternative number one and authorize final
payment to S 6 L Excavating withholding the $2,000.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
Copy of the letter from 091 corrected; Copy of the Change Order f2
corrected; Copy of the final payment schedule corrected.
NOTE: The documents were corrected due to a last minute negotiation with
the contractor which cut the final payment amount by $330.

Council Agenda - 12/14/87
Consideration of Well and Pumphouse Improvements for 1988 and Review of
Cost Estimates. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
In July of 1985 when reviewing the water system study, we discussed the
need for an additional well, as maximum daily water usage during peak
times was over 1 1/4 million gallons and approaching 1 1/2 million
gallons.
In 1986, the City Council authorized OSM to prepare plans and
specifications for the necessary water improvements. At the time of the
water study, the estimated cost of the new well and punphouse was
$190,000 plus engineering, etc. In 1986, we drilled one test well near
the water reservoir which indicated a lower quality well than those in
the downtown area. In order to achieve 1,000 gallons per minute in the
area of the reservoir from the new well, it would be necessary to gravel
pack the well, which will mean more maintenance in the long run. At this
time, we decided to spend a few thousand dollars and drill another test
well near the freeway to determine if we could place a new well on the
site without the gravel packing. This test well indicated similar
conditions to the first boring.
Because of the pending water improvements, we decided to hold off on the
7 -year routine maintenance for well number one, as it costs several
thousand dollars to pull the turban purtpr and it would be necessary to
pull it to upgrade it for a higher pressure. In 1967, we found ourselves
with a well that was two years overdue for maintenance and were pupping
so much water during the middle of the summer that one well could not
keep up. We asked the community for a voluntary odd/even sprinkling ban,
and they cooperated. Although the results were less than anticipated, we
were able to make it through the summer without actual water rationing.
In order to have a well and purphouse in operation for our peak usage in
,7uly and August, it would be necessary to begin construction very early
in 1988. I, therefore, asked OSM to prepare an updated cost estimate for
the well and punphouse. The anticipated costs are as follows:
well
$ 64,000
pumphouse
S 72,000
Equipment
$ 64,000
Site Work
$ 21,000

ENGINEERING COST $279,565
-9-
A
Council Agenda - 12/14/87
By adding bonding costs and such, we could be up in the area of $290,000
for this project. In order to fund this project, it would be necessary
to 1) hold a referendum, or 2) significantly increase the water rates
through a revenue bond, or 31 roll it into an improvement project such as
the East County Road 39 utility improvements whereby it would be
performed under Chapter 429 aired at least 20 percent of the overall
project would be assessed.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative would be to call for a public hearing on
January 11 for the proposed water well and pumphou se improvements
with the idea of combining them with the East County Road 39 utility
improvements. Since the plans and specifications have already been
ordered sometime ago, they could be finished in early January and we
could let bids most likely in February or early March.
2. The second alternative would be to call for a public hearing for the
project on January 11 utilizing the rate increase and revenue bonds.
3. The third alternative would be to do nothing at this time but wait
until we can do the entire water improvement project. This does not
appear practical, as I feel we have a need to guarantee at this time
an adequate supply of water to the city residents even if it still is
at a lower pressure.
C. STAFP REOOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the Public works Director and, I believe, the
City Engineer that the Council proceed with a public hearing for this
improvement as outlined in alternative number one.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
Please refer to your July 1985 copy of the water etudyr OSM will be
bringing additional information for Monday evening's meeting.

Council Agenda - 12/14/87
10. Consideration of Replacement Tractor, Mower, Snowblower for the Public
Works Department. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE. AND BACKGROUND:
Due to the ever increasing amount of turf that the City maintains, City
staff looked at the possibility of adding an additional mower for the
Parks Department. The actual need for an additional piece of equipment
was compounded by the fact we were having problems with the Allis
Chalmers tractor mower. The Allis Chalmers was purchased on a low bid
back in 1982. It was purchased with a 4 -wheel drive option and an
underslung mower with cab and blower. The factory did not offer the
underslung mower on the 4 -wheel drive tractor. Big Lake Equipment,
however, modified the tractor and mower to make it usable.
We have encountered several problems with the Allis Chalmers over the
past few years. The high center of gravity makes it extremely
susceptible to roll over on steep slopes, and it was rolled over in
1984. In addition, the mower has not worked out well in the fact that it
has no clearance top or bottom and does not fit well under the tractor.
Therefore, it has been subjected to damage at many times and is almost
impossible to get properly adjusted for a level cut. It has, therefore,
been the least used mower in our fleet, while the other two tractor
mowers have seen more extensive use.
During the preparation of the budget for 1987, we placed $6,500 in the
Park Fund for the purchase of an additional mower. During the summer of
1987, we looked at the many options available to us. We felt that wider
mowers would increase production time, and there were a great number of
front mounted mowers on the market which would enhance our mowing
capabilities. They all, however, had drawbacks in that they must be
transported from site to site with a trailer and/or pickup. We then
looked at another tractor/mower unit, but we always kept coming back to
the problems encountered with the Allis Chalmers, so no decisions were
really made on which way to go.
This fall, with the installation of the new computer systems, we have a
program which can assist us with such decisions. The project scheduler
enabled us to plug in all of the mowing sites throughout the city, the
times at which they must be mowed, the time of travel between the sites,
and come up with a schedule by which all of the mowing could be
accomplished with the least manhours and least pieces of equipment. The
computer told us that during peak times of the year, we only needed three
pieces of equipment and that during much of the year we would, indeed,
have a backup unit with the third unit. We, therefore, revised our
thinking feeling that we could do without a backup unit for mowing during
the peak times. If all pieces were in good operating condition, there
would be no need for a fourth unit. We began looking at which unit to
replace, the Allis Chalmers or the Bolens. Although the Bolens tractor
sm
C
Council Agenda - 12/14/87
is older than the Allis Chalmers, we have encountered very little
problem, if any, with the tractor unit itself and it is currently in good
operating condition. It did not appear practical to replace the Allis
Chalmers at this time with another 4 -wheel drive tractor of similar
capabilities only with a lower center of gravity and larger mower. The
cost at this time would be exorbitant. We, therefore, look to modifying
the John Deere tractor we have and fitting it with a snowblower and cab
so that it could take the place of the Allis Chalmers; and the Allis
Chalmers could be traded in in 1988 for a piece of mowing equipment with
a wider mower but less the 4 -wheel drive, the snowblower, and the cab.
In summary, our plans are for this year to purchase a snowblower, cab and
heater, and wheel weights for our existing John Deere tractor and to look
at replacement of the Allis Chalmers next year within the 1988 budget
constraints and utilizing a less expensive piece of equipment with
greater capabilities.
Estimated- prices for the blower for the John Deere tractor are $2,150.
The price for a cozy cab with heater, wipers, and defrosters is $2,175,
making the total cost $4,325. This is approximately $2,200 under the
amount budgeted for 1987.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative would be to authorize the purchase of the
snowblower and cab for the John Deere tractor at a cost of $4,325.
2. The second alternative would be not to purchase the snowblower and
cab but to look at purchasing a fourth unit or modifying another
existing unit for some other option.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
it is the recotmwndation of the Public Works Director and Park
Superintendent that the council authorize the purchase of the snowblower
and cab at a cost of 84,325 as outlined in alternative number one. We
will then look at replacing the Allis Chalmers next year as outlined
above and will bring that back before the Council sometime in 1988.

11. Consideration of Appointment of Operator/Mechanic Position. W.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
As was discussed at a previous Council meeting, Jerry Schmidt is retiring
effective January 1, 1988. The city staff placed advertisements in the
local paper as well as the Minneapolis Star and Tribune to fill the
vacant position. The closing date for applications was November 18. We
received 103 applications for the position. A committee made up of
myself, Rick Wolfsteller, and Roger Mack reviewed each application and
resume separately. This proved to be no small task.
After the individual reviews, we met collectively as a group and selected
eight possible candidates for review. We interviewed three candidates
from within the city limits of Monticello, three candidates from the
immediate area, and two candidates from within 35 to 60 miles of the city
of Monticello.
After a detailed analysis of the information received during the
interviewing process, the committee or group deliberated for
approximately two days before reaching a unanimous decision. The
committee or group's recommendation is that the City Council hire
Mr. Allen Gapinski of Route 1, Box BO -A, Buffalo, Minnesota, as the new
operator/mechanic to replace Jerry Schmidt.
Mr. Gapinski has worked for Bergstrom Brothers Inc., a farm tractor and
implement distributor in Buffalo, for approximately 13 years. He is
currently the head mechanic for Bergstrom and has a wide variety of
experience in the repair of light to heavy equipment. Mr. Gapinski has
also worked as a service station mechanic for a couple of years and has
attended a vocational school for two years specializing in farm equipment
and diesel mechanics.
Mr. Gapinski has operated a wide variety of equipment ranging from trucks
and loaders to backhoes and appears to have a wide variety of skills
related to our job description.
We would ask that the City Council hire Mr. Gapinski conditional upon
passing a health physical. we ask that the City Oouneil make it a policy
in all future full-time positions to have the final applicants take a
physical in regard to each job description. The physical should more
than likely be performed by the City Health Officer, Dr. Donald Maus, and
be paid for by the pity.
B. ALTERNATTVF. ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative would be to hire Mr. Allen Gapinski as an
operator/mechanic to replace Jerry Schmidt contingent upon the
passing of a physical in relation to the job description.
I

CoLmcil Agenda - 12/14/87
2. The second alternative could be to appoint Mr. Gapinski as an
operator/mechanic but without the physical requirement.
3. A third alternative would be to not appoint Mr. Allen Gapinski as
operator/mechanic. At this point in time, we feel he was the best
candidate interviewed and all of his references have been checked and
found correct.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the committee or group that the City Counci;
opt for alternate number one and appoint Mr. Allen Gapinski as
operator/mechanic condition upon his passing a physical.

12. Consideration of Ratifying 1988 Salary/Wages for Non -Onion
Employees. (R.W.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
At the special Council meeting held Monday, December 7, the City Council
established that a 5 percent increase would be granted to all employees
as a cost of living adjustment totaling $13,920, excluding the City
Administrator. This adjustment was based on economic forecasts for 1988
projecting inflation to be 5 percent. In addition, the Council
authorized that an additional 1 percent of the total 1987 salaries be
made available for distribution by the Administrator as merit/perfortnance
adjustments. This totaled an additional $2,784.
The following is the rationale I used when offering salary adjustments.
All four clerical people were increased $.56 per hour of which
approximately S.48 reflected the 5 percent cost of living adjustment and
the remaining $.08 counts for the increased work load occurring in the
City Hall generated by our additional growth and the extra work generated
by the computer conversion. This averages approximately a 5.6 percent
increase. 011ie Koropchak, Roger Mack, and John Simola were all granted
the 5 percent cost of living increase and an additional 1 percent for
increased work loads and responsibilities. I believe all three of these
department heads performed admirably during 1987 and have been a great
benefit to myself assuming the Administrator's role and the transition.
Liquor Store Manager, Joe Hartman, received an additional 1/2 percent
above the 5 percent cost of living adjustment for the increased
performance of the liquor store operation. All other non-union employees
received the cost of living adjustment at 5 percent.
B. ALTERNATIVE. ACTIONS:
1. The Council may ratify the salaries agreed upon between the
Administrator and the employees.
2. The Council may reject the agreed upon salaries and set them at some
other level.
C. STAPP RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Council ratify the salaries as agreed upon.

13. Consideration of Approving Inter -Fund Transfers for 1987. (R.W.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACF.GR00ND:
Now that we're nearing the end of our fiscal year, I have prepared a few
transfers between funds that should be approved by the council before
year end. If there are no problems with the proposed transfers, a simple
motion to approve the transfers between funds as listed would be
sufficient.
The first transfer of $43,050 from the Liquor Fund to the Capital outlay
Fund is in accordance with the 1987 budget to cover some of the
expenditures, including 1987'8 sealcoating program, improvements to
County Road 39 West, dump truck purchase, etc. 7be second transfer is in
the amount of $21,452 for the purpose of closing out the revenue sharing
fund and transferring the money to the Capital outlay Fund for future
purchases. Again, the 1987 Budget proposed transferring the remaining
balance to the Capital Outlay Fund for purchases planned in 1987; and
additionally, revenue sharing funds are no longer applicable and as a
result, the fund is no longer necessary at this point. The last transfer
is necessary to cover the deficit that has occurred) in the West County
Road 39 construction fund. The City's share of the construction project,
including engineering and easement acquisition cost, totaled $57,014.
