MINUTES REGULAR MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL Monday, January 14, 1991 - 7:00 a.m. Members Present: Ken Maus, Shirley Anderson, Dan Blonigen, Clint Herbst, Brad Fyle Members Absent: None Oath of office. Administrator Wolfsteller administered the oath of office to the two newly elected council members, Clint Herbst and Brad Fyl.e. Approval of minutes. Council member, Shirley Anderson, noted a typographical error in the Special Meeting Minutes of the City Council, December 10, 1990, 6:30 p.m., referencing the establishment of a salary pool at 5.46 rather than the 5.6% so indicated in the minutes. Shirley Anderson then made a motion, seconded by Dan Blonigen, to approve the minutes of the special meetings held November 30, 1990; December 3, 1990; December 10, 1990 , as corrected; December 17, 1990; and the regular meeting held December 10, 1990. Motion carried unanimously. Citizens comments /not it ions, requests and complaints. Mr . Clay Christian, a volunteer for the Camp Courage Wagon Train event, informed the Council of the Wagon Train's planned stop in Monticello Saturday, June 22, 1991. The annual event Is put together by over 300 volunteers for the purpose of raising money to help send children with disabilities to Camp Courage. Mr. Christian was seeking permission from the City to allow the Wagon Train to camp overnight within the city limits on vacant property adjacent to the Burger King Restaurant. Mr. Christian will be working with City staff to organize support services for the Wagon Train, and this Information will be presented to the City Council for further roviow and approval prior to the event. A motion was made by Dan Blonigon, seconded by Shirley Anderson, and unanimously carried, to grant permission t o the Camp Courage Wagon Train to utilize Monticello as an overnight stop with the understanding that the event be coordinated with the City staff. Page 1 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 Mr. George Poach of 718 East River Street expressed concerns to the Council on the amount of snowmobile traffic that has occurred this year along River Street. Mr. Poach noted that many of the snowmobiles are violating City ordinances by riding on the boulevards destroying residential property. Mr. Poach asked for assistance from the Sheriff's Department in curtailing the violators and recommended that the City Council consider additional enforcement procedures and additional public notification of the City's snowmobile ordinances. The Council consensus was to allow additional notices to be placed in the local newspaper advising the public of our ordinance on snowmobile operation within the city. 5. Consideration of an ordinance amendment to Section 3-9 IC14 to include: (1 ) A permit for a public sign in the form of a decorative banner to be displayed on public property for a period of one (1) year. A permit shall be issued for each vear that the decorative banners are displaved. Applicant, City of Monticello. In conjunction with the Chamber of Commerce's proposed installation of decorative banners along major thoroughfares in Monticello, the City staff has been working with the Planning Commission and the City Council members to establish a zoning ordinance amendment that would allow decorative banners to be displayed on public property through a permit process. An ordinance amendment was reviewed with the Council that allowed public banners to be hung from city street light fixtures for a period of up to one year with City Council approval of the banner placement plan and location, etc. A motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Clint Herbst, and unanimously carried to adopt an ordinance amendment that defines a public banner and sets provisions for their erection. SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 200. 6. Consideration of approving public banner system proposal. Applicant, Monticello Chamber of Commerce. Monticello Chamber of Commerce requested approval of a plan to place decorative banners at strategic locations throughout the city. The banner design proposed would contain the City logo and would consist of two sizes, one being a 14' by 45' banner for the strootacapo light poles, and a 28' by 80' banner for standard light polo installations. Page 2 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 The Council discussed the proposed locations of the banners, which would generally be placed on alternate light standards along County Road 75 (Broadway) and along Highway 25. The Council and staff did note that some of the proposed locations on existing light standards may need modifications to avoid conflicts with other attachments already existing on these poles, but the exact location could be determined by the staff and Chamber. Previously, the City Council committed to financing 75% of the cost to purchase banners and brackets up to $5,400, provided these banners are placed on public rights- of-way. Any banners placed on private property would be at the expense of the benefiting property owner, including the installation cost performed by the City crew. A motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Shirley Anderson, and unanimously carried to approve the public banner system proposal presented by the Chamber of Commerce with the understanding that the exact location of each banner would be determined by City staff and Chamber individuals and would be subject to review by the City Council as to the duration the banners would be allowed to be in existence. 7. Consideration of an ordinance amendment to Section 2-2 fHs), of the Monticello zoning Ordinance by addino "beautician" to the list of home occupations allowed by ordinance. Amendment to also include additional conditions associated with the operation of a home occupation and establishment of a home occupation permitting process. Applicant, Citv of Monticello. As the result of a request to allow a beautician to conduct a home occupation as an accessory use in a residential zone, the City Council discussed whether a beautician home occupation should bean allowable use within a residential district. The City's current zoning ordinance pertaining to home occupations does not specify beautician as an allowable use but has in the past granted conditional use permits use for such operations. It was recommended by the staff and Planning Commission that the definition of a beautician be added to the home occupations allowed by ordinance. In addition, it was also recommended that a permitting process be established to enable the staff to monitor and enforce home occupations in general. The ordinance amendment and resulting permit process was a result of a request by Karla Dickey to operate as a beautician in a home at 115 Kevin Longley Drive in the Par West subdivision. Homo occupations are limited to activities that only generate one off-street parking requirement at a time and do not alter the appearance of the residontial structure. Pago 3 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 The proposed ordinance amendment to allow beauticians as a home occupation was also recommended to include language that indicated no additional signage would be allowed other than a sign that indicted the owners name and address. After further discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Clint Herbst, and unanimously carried to adopt the ordinance amendment that added a "beautician" as an allowable home occupation use within a residential district and to amend the definition to include language indicating that no sign except the occupant's name and address would be allowed. In addition, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Brad Fyle, and unanimously carried to adopt an administrative permitting process for home occupations and set the permit fee at $10 for the initial application with annual reviews at no charge. SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT N0, 201. 8. Consideration of a resolution declaring costs to be assessed and orderinq preparation of proposed assessment roll and settinq a public hearinq for Proiect 90-4 (Sandberg East Improvement). At the December 17, 1990, special Council meeting, a proposed assessment roll for Project 90-4 was reviewed with the Council ' and accepted. The total project costs were estimated at $223,387.49, and a proposed assessment to benefiting property would total $173,530.30. As part of the proposed assessments, the Council noted its intention to offer a deferment of interest for up to throe years for unplatted properties that were affected by this improvement. Parcels eligible for the interest deferment would be required to have the assessment payable over the remaining seven years of the ten year assessment. A request was also submitted previously by Mr. John Sandberg, owner of the Sandberg East subdivision requesting the Council consider assessing only 4 lots of the 13 -lot development. The total assessment proposed for the Sandberg East plat would be $70,632.40 and would result in four lots being assessed at $17,658.01 each. Concerns were expressed by the Council on the benefits to the City of only assessing four lots with such a largo amount without sufficient guarantees that the four lots would be the first properties to be built on. In the event of default on any payments, the value of the assessments could exceed the market value of the property. In addition, the Council had concerns over setting a precedent of allowing a developer to choose which properties are assessed for an improvement when all lots really benefited; and as a result, Pago 4 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 it was the Council consensus that at the assessment hearing, it will be proposed that all of the benefiting lots receive an equal assessment. With the final costs having been determined, a motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Clint Herbst, and unanimously carried to adopt a resolution declaring the costs to be assessed and scheduling a public hearing for January 28, 1991, on adoption of the assessment roll. SEE RESOLUTION NO. 91-1. Consideration of resolution releasing conditional use restriction--Outiot A of Sandberq east plat. As part of the preliminary plat approval of the Sandberg East development by the Monticello OAA Board in January of 1987, a restrictive covenant was placed against Outlet A that indicated that the outlot would not be considered a building site until it was further approved for development by the City or MORA Board. Mr. Rod Noreli, current owner of Outlet A, has requested that the restriction be removed by the City Council since the OAA Board no longer had control over development processes. In addition, Mr. Norell noted that financial institutions were reluctant to provide mortgage funds for this lot because of the apparent approval needed for further development before it was considered a building site. in reviewing the condition established by the OAA with the City Attorney, the attorney did not see any problem with releasing the condition, as the property would still be subject to all current City zoning and building code regulations. As a result, motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Dan Blonigen, and unanimously carried to adopt the resolution releasing the restrictive covenant established by the OAA Board and noting that outlot A of the Sandberg East plat would be subject to all normal zoning and subdivision regulations of the City of Monticello. SEE RESOLUTION NO. 91-2. 10. Consideration of accepting petition for annexation and agroeino to enter into a Joint resolution with Monticello Township for annexation of west Kiollbergs Mobilo Homo Park. On Novembor 13, 1990, Kent Kjellberg, owner of the West Kjollberge Mobilo Home Park, petitioned the City Council to annex approximstoly 120 acres into the city for the purpose of allowing a connection to our sanitary sower system. The petition was forwarded to the Monticello Township Board for thoir roviow and the Monticello Township Board Indicated that Pago 5 Rel Council Minutes - 1/14/91 they would agree to a joint resolution allowing annexation of the mobile home park provided either a guarantee was provided by Mr. Kjellberg for the construction of the sewer connection or the sewer connection was completed first. Mr. Kent Kjellberg was primarily concerned with receiving support of annexation from the City Council along with an assurance from Monticello Township that if the sewer connection was completed that annexation would proceed. The Council also noted that an exact acreage to be annexed would have to be agreed upon with the Township Board but should consist of the entire mobile home park and additional property presently used for the mobile home park's sewage disposal system. Council also discussed establishing a deadline for the mobile home to make the sanitary sewer connection and felt that December 31, 1991, should allow sufficient time for Mr. Kjellberg to complete the construction. In addition, it was recommended that a time table be established whereby the petitioner would be required to provide plans and specifications by June 15, 1991, obtain all easements and permits necessary for the construction project by August 15, 1991, and actually commence construction by September 15, 1991. Mr. Kjellberg had indicated he was comfortable with the City agreeing to annex the West Mobile Home Park provided the connection was constructed first. As a result, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Brad Fyle, and carried unanimously to adopt a resolution accepting the petition for annexation and agreeing to enter into a joint resolution with the Monticello Township Board allowing for the annexation to take place upon the completion of the sanitary sewer connection by Kent Kjellberg. SEE RESOLUTION NO. 91-3. ii. Consideration of accoptinq partial pavmont of dolinquont assessments from Farm Credit Services to allow sale of 49 -acre parcel to school district. Farm Credit Services, the owner of property adjacent to the middle school site, had entered into a purchaso agreement with the school district to sell the school 49 acres of property. The 49 -acro parcel is a portion of a larger tax parcel containing 144.5 acres that has delinquent taxes and assessments payable. In order for this Belo to occur, Farm Credit Services representatives had requested assistance from the City to allow a partial payment of delinquent assessment totaling 34% of the outstanding balances duo. Pago 6 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 The proposed payment by Farm Credit Services would amount to $59,456 .03 in delinquent assessments and an additional $16,565.92 in delinquent real estate taxes. The Council indicated concerns over accepting partial payment of delinquent taxes in that the unpaid portion would no longer be considered delinquent, which could result in delayed payments in the future. Administrator Wolfsteller noted that Farm Credit Services had indicated they plan on bringing current all delinquent assessments pertaining to all property that they have acquired yet in 1991. As a result, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Dan Blonigen, and unanimously carried to agree to pro -rate the delinquent assessment based on acreage being sold and accept 34% of the special assessment balances at the time of sale with the entire real estate taxes also due at time of sale contingent upon Farm Credit Services indicating in writing that they anticipate paying up all delinquent assessments and taxes during 1991 on property they have acquired through foreclosure. 12. Consideration of an interim ordinance imoosina a moratorium on adult oriented land uses on certain property located within the city of Monticello. Applicant, city of Monticello. Previously, the City Council acted to impose a moratorium on the ostablishment of adult book store and adult entertainment establishments. It was the recommendation of the City Planner that the Council should formally adopt an ordinance placing a moratorium on these land uses rather than through Council motion; as a result, an ordinance amendment was prepared by the staff which would continue the moratorium for one year. A motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Brad Fylo, and unanimously carried to adopt the ordinance amendment as proposed. SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT N4. 242. 13. Consideration of purchasing additional scanner and software for the recyclinq program. As part of the 1990 budget, an amount of $1,650 was budgeted for the purchase of ono additional scanner and some additional computer programming for the recycling program. The additional scanner was needed as a backup unit. The City has been experiencing some problems with the use of our present scanners, and the Public works Director had been resoarching alternate manufacturers. The additional cost to Pago 7 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 purchase a different model amounted to $1,895, but the additional computer programming necessary to integrate the new scanner into the City's computer system would cost an additional $2,500. The Council discussed the merits of converting the entire scanner system to a new model because of the cost and recommended that additional research be implemented by the Public Works Department to determine if our existing scanners could be modified or if enhancements were available to eliminate the problems the City was experiencing. As a result, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Dan Blonigen, and unanimously carried to continue this item for further study and recommendations from the Public Works Department. 14. Consideration of amendment to contract with Professional Services Group for change in scope of services, i.e.. laboratory certification requirements. In early 1990, the Minnesota Department of Health regulations required all public and private environmental testing laboratories to become certified by January 1, 1991. The tests covered by the new rules include those performed at the Monticello wastewater Treatment Plant by Professional Services Group. Certification procedures for all laboratories are quite extensive requiring additional manpower and equipment which has resulted in an increase cost to PSG above the contract amount. The proposed contract increase for 1991 would cost the City of Monticello an estimated $5,807. It was recommended by the Public Works Director that the City amend the Wastewater Treatment Plant contract with PSG for this additional amount. A motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Shirley Anderson, and unanimously carried to approve the contract amendment with PSG for the change in scope of services in the amount of $5,807 annually. 15. Consideration of making annual appointments. A motion was made by Brad Fyle, seconded by Dan Blonigen, and unanimously carried to approve the annual organizational appointments as listed on the attached schedule. Pago 0 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 16. Consideration of approvinq 1991 contract for oolice protection with Wriqht County Sheriff. The City Council discussed renewing the 1991 law enforcement contract with the Wright County Sheriff's Department covering police protection for the City of Monticello. The new contract would total $172,043.50 for 7, 321 hours of coverage. The Council discussed the merits of allowing the Sheriff's Department to redirect some of the hours scheduled for additional coverage on Friday and Saturday nights to other time periods throughout the week as needed. Previously, 416 hours were established for additional coverage to cover cruising and loitering problems that had existed during weekends, but concerns were expressed by Sheriff Don Hozempa over eliminating these additional hours of coverage at this time. It was the consensus of the Council that the additional hours would remain within the contract, but the Sheriff's Department could reallocate the hours of coverage to different time periods if warranted. A motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Brad Fyle, and unanimously carried to ratify the police protection contract for 1991 with the Wright County Sheriff's Department in the amount of $172,043.50 for 7,321 of coverage. 17. Ratification of salary adjustments for 1991. Administrator Wolfsteller presented to the Council a revised salary schedule for non-union employees for 1991. The salary adjustments proposed an increase totaling $23,525 for r -ho 16 non-union employees. A motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Brad Fyle, to approve the salary adjustments as recommended by the Administrator. voting in favor: Ken Maus, Shirley Anderson, Clint Herbst, and Brad Fyle. Opposed: Dan Blonigon. 18. Consideration of authorizinq the purchase of a vehicle for the Buildinq Insnoction Department. As part of the 1991 budget, funds wore budgeted in the amount of $10,000 for the purchase of a vehicle to be used by the Building Inspection Department and possibly other City Hall employees for City business. In the past, the Building Official has boon reimbursed 25 cents/milo for utilization of his own vehicla. Page 9 0 Council Minutes - 1/14/91 The Council was presented with a number of quotations for new and used vehicles that would meet the needs of this City department. The Council discussed the merits of purchasing a vehicle rather than reimbursing for mileage and noted that it would be more economical for the City to continue the mileage reimbursement program. Building Official, Gary Anderson, noted that he did not feel that the 25 cents/mile reimbursement was sufficient to cover his expenses and requested that the Council supply a City vehicle for his department's use. The Council discussed whether it was economical to purchase a new vehicle for the limited amount of mileage the vehicle would receive annually. It was noted by the staff that cost quotations could be obtained on a used vehicle; but in the long run, maintenance and repair costs were estimated to be higher without new vehicle warranties in place. After further discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Clint Herbst, and unanimously carried to authorize the staff to obtain additional quotations on both new and used compact pickups and mini -vans for the Council to p consider ata future meeting. 19. Consideration of bills for the last half of December. A motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Dan Blonigen, and unanimously carried to approve the bills for the months of December and January as presented. 20. Consideration of establishinq Park Board Commission. Mayor Ken Maus suggested that the City Council consider establishing a park board. The board could be responsible for advising the City Council on park improvements, park acquisitions, and also be an advisory body for reviewing subdivision plats in regard to park dedication requirements. As a result, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Clint Herbst, and unanimously carried to authorize the staff to research and report back to the Council on the creation of a park board, Including recommended by-laws and organizational structure needed.

Citizens comments /petitions, requests, and complaints. (R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Wes Olson, representing the Monticello Jaycees, will be appearing before the Council to discuss a proposed use of the old fire hall. While I do not have all of the details, the Monticello Jaycees would like to get involved with the City on remodeling the old fire hall for use as a multi-purpose community facility. The Jaycees have indicated they have pull -tab gambling proceeds that would be available for remodeling the fire hall for such uses as the Food Shelf, possibly Christian Social Services, development of community meeting rooms for organizations, and other organizational uses. If the City Council is supportive of this type of concept use of the building, the Jaycees will continue researching potential uses and, I believe, report back to the Council on a plan for implementing this idea. Council Agenda - 1/28/91 Public hearinq on the adoption of assessment roll for Project 90-04 (sandberq East improvement) and adoption of resolution certifyinq assessment to county auditor. (R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Based on an estimated project cost of $223,387.49 at completion, an assessment roll has been prepared for all affected property owners who benefited from the improvement totaling $173,530.30. The assessment roll was prepared based on the previous Council action of the City assuming 258 of the lateral sewer and water cost because of the unique situation created by this improvement whereby only one side of the improvement received benefit and because of the need to service the Sandberg East plat which already existed prior to annexation. At the time the project was ordered, the Council also had indicated that any u nplatted, unsubdivided properties involved in this improvement would be eligible for up to a three-year deferral of interest charges on the proposed assessment. The interest would be deferred for up to three years or until the property was subdivided. After the three-year deferral, interest would start to accumulate, and the assessment would be payable over the remaining seven years of the proposed ten- year assessment roll. The two properties proposed to receive this deferment would be the Robert Krautbauer parcel along East County Road 39 and also the property owned by Ms. Joanne Halliger. The other parcels affected by the assessment roll are immediately developable and would not be eligible for deferment under our present policies. As I mentioned at previous Council meetings, Mr. Sandberg, owner of 13 lots within the Sandberg East development, has requested Council only assess four lots of his development for the entire cost at $70,632.40. By doing so, four lots would have an assessment of $17,658.01 each. It was the consensus of the Council at the last meeting that because of a precedent this policy may ostablish and the fact that such a high assessment against only four lots could result in the assessments exceeding the value of the property, the Council was leaning toward assessing the individual 13 lots separately for $5,433.26 each. While I'm sure Mr. Sandberg will again be requesting at the assessment hearing authorization to only assess four lots, the ultimate decision will be up to the City. While the City somewhat inherited this problem of providing sewer and water extension to service the Sandberg East plat because of annexation, the Council doos have to be concerned over establishing a precedent that could affect future assessment policies of the City. It is recommended that if the Council considers assessing only part of the Sandberg East plat, the City should require that we got to choose the four Council Agenda - 1/28/91 lots that are assessed, advance payment of $3,000 per lot ($12,000 total) should be required to adequately protect the City's investment so that the assessment does not exceed the market value in the near future, proper legal documents are prepared and recorded that allow the City to foreclose on the property immediately upon any default of payment, and the lots assessed shall be the first ones to be built upon with the remaining nine lots having a restriction that they are unbuildable until the assessments are paid in full. The above conditions are the staff's recommendation to adequately protect the City if the Council is willing to assess only four lots. Additionally, all legal fees associated with preparing special documents should be the responsibility of the property owner and not the City. The City has sent the required public hearing notices to all affected property owners and has received notice from Mr. Jeff Nelson that he intends to protest the proposed assessment of $9,225.18 for his home. Mr. Nelson has indicated he does not feel the assessment proposed has increased the value of his property by a like amount and may be appealing the assessment to District Court. in preparing the assessment roll, 258 percent of the lateral sewer and water cost was assumed by the City, and the balance of the sewer and water was pro -rated on a front footage basis. Mr. Nelson's property contains 160 feet of frontage (two 80 - foot lots) which results in a higher than normal assessment compared to other parcels involved in this improvement. The Nelaons originally chose to place their home in the middle of Lha two lots, which does make it more difficult for them to sell off a portion of their property to pay for the higher than normal assessment. The original Sandberg East plat required two 80 -foot lots to be purchased in a single unit with the idea of a home being built on ono -half of the property, which would allow the property owner to sell the adjacent lot to recapture additional costs they may have incurred when sewer and water did become available. When the Nolsons constructed their home, the construction was originally delayed, as the OAA Board did not want to allow the home to be placed in the middle of the lot, as this would have eliminated the Nolsons' ability to Boll off one of the lots when sewer and water was installed. The home builder, along with the Nolsons and Mr. John Sandberg, convinced the OAA Board that the siting of the home should be at the option of the property owner fully realizing that they may incur additional costs for sewer and water in the future. While it does not appear that the Nolsons could sell one of the lots asoriginally platted, the option is still available for the Nolsons to recapture some of their additional assessment through the sale of the back half of their property in the future. with the recent approval of the Sandberg East roplat submitted by John Sandberg, the Nolsons have the ability to subdivide the west portion of their two lots that would fit in Council Agenda - 1/28/91 with the proposed lots created by Mr. Sandberg on his replat. The lot would just be split in a different direction, but this option will be available to the Nelsons. At the beginning of this project, the Nelsons had been working with John Sandberg and Rod Norell on a plan that would have given Mr. Sandberg and Mr. Norell a portion of the Nelsons' property in exchange for the developers assuming their sewer and water assessment. Initially, the Nelsons were going to give up approximately 40 feet of frontage along Gi llard Avenue and the rear portion of their two lots in exchange for Sandberg and Norell picking up their assessment cost. Since these discussions terminated and the land exchange did not occur, the Nelsons still retain ownership of two city lots and have the ability to sell off the back portion of their lots to accomplish the same goal. As a result, the City could adopt the assessment roll as proposed even if the Nelsons do intend to protest their assessments. With a future building lot being available to the Nelsons when Outlet A is developed, another option may be to offer the Nelsons the opportunity to deed the back half of their property to the City in exchange for the proposed assessment. This would accomplish the same goal as the Nelsons anticipated at the beginning of the project and would give the City a future building lot that it could resell to recapture the assessment. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. After the close of the public hearing, the Council could adopt the assessment roll as prepared, which would provide for a three-year deferment of interest for the two parcels noted. Unless specifically authorized, the assessments for the Sandberg East plat would be placed against individual lots that benefited from the improvement. Under this alternative, the City would be taking the position that Mr. Nelson did have two building lots and has the ability to recapture the additional assessmont costs through the sale of a portion of his property in the future. If an appeal is filed on this assessment roll by Mr. Nelson and he is successful in court, the City could be faced with negotiating a settlement or being forced to pick up the additional assessment reduction through ad valorem taxes. 2. Adopt the assessment roll as proposed for all property owners except the Nelson parcel, which could be determined later. Under this alternative, the Council could consider a reduction in the assessment, if warranted, by an appraisal or could negotiate an exchange of land in liou Council Agenda - 1/28/91 of the assessments that would create a future building lot that the City could sell to recapture its reduced assessment. 3. Council could table any action on adopting the assessment C`\ roll at this time and direct staff to prepare a new 1 assessment roll using a unit method treating each lot (1 equally regardless of size. tY7 Under this alternative, the other benefiting property owners would likely see an increase in their proposed assessment, which would require additional public hearing notices. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: While the Nelsons do have the right to appeal their assessment to District Court, I do believe they were aware that they would be subject to a larger than normal assessment when they chose to build their home in the middle of two platted lots. As a result, if the Nelsons prevail in District Court, the City could be faced with either picking up the reduced O assessment cost through ad valorem taxes or would have the option of reassessing the other benefiting properties. If an appeal is filed, the City would still have the ability to negotiate a settlement with the Nelsons, which could involve a land exchange between the Nelsons and the City similar to the one they had tentatively agreed to with the developers. Without negotiating any type of settlement, the City would be required to obtain an appraisal to justify the assessment should the appeal proceed to court. In regard to Mr. Sandberg's request to assess only four lots within his development, the Council should be aware that this may be setting a precedent for future requests of a similar nature. If the Council is agreeable to Mr. Sandberg•s request, I would suggest the City choose the four lots that are assessed, that the City receive approximately $3,000 per lot down payment, obtain a first mortgage or other legal document enabling us to foreclose immediately upon default of any installment payment, require that the four lots be the first buildable lots within the devolopmont, and restrict the balance of the lots from obtaining building permits until such time as the entire assessment balance is paid.

In the plat across the road (Tyler Fast ) the wells are on the road side and the severs in the back and Salkowski recommended that they be the sane in this plat. The two southern most lots will require a little more soil preparation than the other lots. Genn again brought up the problems of drainage in Tyler East artd wanted them to be addressed along with possible water problems in this proposed plat and the drainage plan for the southern ore -half of this plat. Sandberg stated that Lot j would provide for any possible water problem wd that he had talked to the engineer, Meyer- Rohlin regarding this, both Tyler East and this plat. Gr Lasmo stated that within the city limits there are a few holding ponds to retain ran off waters. Sandberg reiterated that there has been no standing water nor drainage into the southern half of the plat. He has planned for future storm sewers. Discussion changed to park dedication fees. Salkovski stated that the fees would be only on the portion proposed for development at this time and not for the entire parcel. Question as to hcw this Board can retain the fees for future neighborhood pari development. Decision to have Grimsmo and Tenn appear before the Wright County Board of Commissioners after Engstrom has placed it on the agenda. Fee for this should roughly be $1500 to 8X00 (park dedication fee). Grimsmo stated for lack of information on Lots 1 and 2 and recognizing Denn's concern but looking at the whole plat he moved "that the conditional use•per:nit for the nine lot subdivision k:no:n as Sandberg Fast be recommended for approval as follows: Whereas, the preliminary plat of "Sandberg Fast" as prepared by Meyer-Rohlin, Inc. and presented by Jour. Sandberg lies in an area currently zoned R-1, Urbs-n-Rural Transition and Wild and Scenic River (urban standards),&nd Whereas, said plat meets the minimum standards required by County zoning ordinances Csubdivision regulations, and Whereas, certain conditions are required to ensure that the plat meets these standards, and that it can reasonably be accommodated by urban services in the future due to its proximity to the Monticello City border, Now, therefore be it resolved, that the preliminary plat be approved as submitted subject to the following conditions. 1. Park dedication fee as required by County subdivision regulations be cash, and not applied to the area designated Outlet A. 2. Until annexed by the City, lot ownership must be grouped in pairs as designated on the preliminary plat. 3. Prior to -developing any lot in the-Tomahip, the owner -shall submit a "survey -ander L- site plan of the entire property which shows both lots in the pair, and the `+ i location of the proposed house, well and sever. All wells must be located on th'e east side of the lot, and.all sever systems must be located on the vest side of of the lot. All wells and 'Structures must fit within a single lot 'and maintain ;appropriate setbacks from all individual lot lines. Wherever Outlet A bordereJ a numbered lot, the setback from the border rill be as requiredfrom a Cttyl street in Kontieello City regulations. L. Oudot A. will not be considered as a building site until it is approved for further development by the City or M.O.A.A. Board. S. The survey and site plans submitted for Lots 13 and lh, Block 2, and lots 1 and 2, Block 3 shall include specific and detailed plans for fill, including existing and proposed topography, driveway and structure location and plans to retain drainage from all hard surfaces on site. Council Agenda - 1/28/91 i 5. Consideration of authorizinq purchase of air compressor for fire department. (R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: As part of the 1991 budget, $7,500 was proposed by the fire department for the purchase of a replacement air compressor for filling their breathing apparatus. The type of air compressor needed by the fire department has limited suppliers, as these air compressors are different in that they operate under very high pressure and also purify the air. The model selected by the fire department would be a three -stage air cooled compressor with a 5,000 PSI capacity. The department is also proposing to replace existing storage tanks with two new 4,500 PSI storage tanks, with the total package estimated at $8,334. Joint Fire Board representatives attended the Township Board meeting Wednesday evening to discuss the proposed purchase of the air compressor. The Township Board was in agreement with the proposed purchase provided the Joint Fire Board would again meet to review the capital outlay budget for the fire department in an effort to find areas that could be delayed until future years. The Joint Board will schedule a meeting in the near future to again review the proposed 1991 budget in an attempt to scale back the capital outlay purchases for other equipment. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Authorize the fire department to purchase the air compressor along with two now storage tanks and pressure reducing regulator in the amount of $8,334. 2. Do not approve the purchase at this time. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: With the present air compressor becoming unreliable, the Joint Board recommends the purchase of a now air compressor and upgraded storage tanks. The Township Board is also in agreement with this purchase with the understanding that the Joint Fire Board will propose reductions in the total capital outlay expenditures proposed for 1991. Fire Chief, Jerry Wein, will be available at the meeting to answer questions you may have on the air compressor proposed. D.

(R.W.) REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: As part of the 1991 budget, $7,500 was allocated for having an architect/engineering firm prepare a facilities needs planning study concerning future expansion/needs of City Hall and the Public Works Department. Enclosed with the agenda you will find a listing of some of the items that the Public Works Department and City Hall staff feel need to be addressed in the future. This will give you an idea of some of the items a needs study would address and allow the City to plan for ways of accomplishing these needs in the future. At this point, the staff is seeking authorization to contact three or four consultants (architect/engineering firms) that have completed similar studies for other communities in the past. The intent would be to request the consultants to present their proposals to the Council on what they would study and the estimated cost to complete a planning report. After a presentation of their proposals, Council could then select a firm to complete the study based on their proposal. k, B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Authorize the staff to request proposals from three or four consultants familiar with this typo of planning and have them on a future Council agenda. 2. If the Council feels the issues noted do not have to be addressed at this time, Council could delay authorization to seek proposals at this time. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: From a short and long-term planning aspect, I believe the City will need an outside consultant to analyze our present facilities and our anticipated needs and establish a plan for solving these needs. If facilities need to be expanded, I believe it's important to have a plan available, even if expansion did not occur for a few years. It is the staff's recommendation that proposals from architects and engineers be obtained for Council review. SUPPORTING DATA: List of study issues. PUBLIC WORKS STUDY ISSUES Street and Park 1.

At the last meeting, staff presented a recommendation to phase in the MARS scanners along with continued use of the Telxon units. Staff indicated that the City of St. Louis Park had switched over to the MARS units, as they were more suitable for the extreme weather conditions, especially those during the winter months. The City Council asked for additional research into the proposed purchase due to the high cost of computer programming to add the MARS system to the current system. The programming cost was $2,500 and was unbudgeted. Our primary concerns were in the area of scanner head failure. The scanner heads would freeze up and result in extra time for the contractor, as he had to hand enter or key punch in the ba.r code data for each pickup. In addition, each Telxon scanner head that fails costs approximately $170. We've had two failures so far that resulted in replacement of the scanning heads. We were also informed that the lens cap on the scanner head can be detached and replaced. Some failures that we have experienced possibly could be taken care of by replacing just the lens cap rather than the entire scanner head. The cost per lens cap is significantly less than a new scanner head. In doing additional research, we placed direct calls to Telxon to both their sales and new product division and the service division. The sales and new product division indicated that their now larger 610 Model uses the same type of scanning head as our existing unite. In addition, since there was extremely limited use of their scanners under the outside weather conditions ours are subjected to, it is doubtful that Tolxon would be developing new products for such a limited market. I spoke to the service department about our problem. The service manager was aware of the problems encountered in St . Louis Park and said that their problems wore a combination of weather and physical damage to the scanner heads. The service department indicated that there was a special lens on the end of the scanner that could not be modified for Increased weather resistance and that the units wore designed to operate in an average temperature of 10 dogroos or above. He indicated he would send us two lens caps free of charge that we could experiment with, such as coating the units with clear epoxy or the liko, to increase the weather resistance. 1 Council Agenda - 1/28/91 l Since it would take at least 30 days for us to get another Telxon unit, we would like to place an order with them as soon as possible so that we at least have our backup unit as originally planned. The cost of the Telxon unit with one spare head would be $1,260 without the charger. With the two free lenses from Telxon, we could experiment with some clear epoxy or other substance to see if we could increase the weather resistance of the units. in light of the number of problems we have experienced with the Telxon scanners, and due to the possibility that the support and service provided by Shelton Company may not be sufficient for our future needs, we would like to keep open the option of budgeting monies for phasing in new scanners and programming for 1992. H. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first alternative would be to purchase one PTC 620 Telxon scanner and spare SKI scanner head from Shelton Company in Minneapolis for an amount of $1,260. 2. The second alternative would be to purchase the MARS unit and programming for $4,395. 3. The third ailernativa would be to do nothing but to continue as we are with no backup. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is the staff recommendation that the City Council allow us to purchase an additional backup scanner from Telxon and experiment with the lens caps to increase their weather resistance. Total cost for this option is $1,260 as outlined in alternative 81. D. SUPPORTING DATA: Please refer to item in the 1/14/91 agenda packet. a Council Agenda - 1/28/91 8. Consideration of purchase of portable wire feed welder and replacement of welding torch set. (J.S.) REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: The Public Works Department would like to update its welding capabilities by adding a portable wire feed (MIG) welder with the capability of welding light gauge steel in the shop as well as having the ability to move the Helder to the field for use on street structures and park equipment. From time to time there is a need to do welding on some of the street light poles as well as the streetscape railing system. In addition, having a field portable welder would allow us to make repairs on park equipment or street signs, etc., in place. Since the City already has a small Honda generator capable of producing 2 0 amps at 230 volts, we looked for a welder that could weld sheet metal on up to quarter -inch steel and yet would operate on the power provided by the small generator so that it would be field transportable. In preparation, we placed an amount of $1,300 in the 1991 budget. During the past few weeks, we have looked at several welders and have had demonstrations from a Solar unit manufactured by Century in Minneapolis which would be purchased and serviced through National Bushing in Monticello, and a Miller unit which would be purchased and serviced through Central -McGowan in St. Cloud. The Solar unit, at a cost of $1,140, is rated at 130 amps output and draws a little over 20 amps at maximum load. This unit has several features, including a spot and stitch mode for lighter metals. It does not, however, have an easily reversible polarity Be that it can be used without gas with a flux wire. Adding a refundable lease for the CO2 tank at $164.45 brings the cost of the Solar unit to $1,304.45, which Is $4 .45 above our budget. The Miller unit is rated at 150 amps output and draws approximately 25 amps at full load. Even though the demand of the welder was higher than the output of the generator, it worked well during the test porlod. The Miller unit does not have the spot and stitch modes for the lighter sheet metals but does have a reverse polarity feature which allows use of the flux wire without gas. Although this is a nice feature, it probably won't be used do to the high cost of flux wire vs. gas. The cost of the Miller unit is $1,425.16. Adding the $164.45 for the returnable Lank lease brings the unit to $1,589.61, which is $289.61 over our budget figure of $1,300. Generally speaking, the public works employees preferred the operation of the Miller, especially on heavier metals. The additional amperage output gave that machine more versatility. In addition to the wire food welders, the public works department would like to upgrade the old welding torch sot. The existing Marquette unit was between 16 and 20 years old and has limited capabilities and is in need of repairs. We Council Agenda - 1/28/91 would like to replace the unit with either a Victor journeyman's torch set or a Smith S -series set. we have obtained a price for the Victor unit from National Bushing of Monticello for $454.25. The Smith series set from Central - McGowan in St. Cloud sells for $330.70. The budget amount for this item $400. It is assumed that the existing value of the Marquette set is somewhere around $50. It would be sold at public auction sometime in 1991. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first alternative would be to purchase the Miller unit from Central -McGowan, Inc., of St. Cloud with the tank lease for a cost of $1,589.61 and to purchase the Smith welding torch set at a cost $330.70 also from Central -McGowan. The budgeted amount for these two items is $1,700. This purchase would put us $220.31 over budget but is preferred by the public works employees. 2. The second alternative would be to purchase both low bid items, the Solar unit from National Bushing in Monticello at a total cost $1,304.45 and the Smith weldiny torch set from Central -McGowan at a cost of $330.70. These purchases would be under budoet by $64.85. 3. The third alternative would be to purchase the Miller welder and delete the purchase of the torch set this year (we would have to have our old torch repaired). This would keep us in budget for this year. 4. The fourth alternative would be to make no purchases but to contract out any field welding that we may havo and have the existing torch rebuilt. Although no estimates have been made as to the actual hours of field welding needed, we have checked contract welding costs, and they are in the area of $30 per hour and would require a minimum number of hours per call. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: In regard to the Solar welder from National Bushing versus the Miller weldor from Contra 1 -McGowan, both welders would serve their purposo. Each carries a one-year warranty, and sorvice Is availablo either locally or as near as St. Cloud. The MiIlor weldor, howover, is preferred, aftor demonstrations, by those employees who will bo using it and should got additional consideration. Therefore, it is the staff recommendation that the City Council opt for either alternative 01 or alternative 03, depending on whether or not $290 is considered a sovore deviation from the budget. D.

REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: There is a need in the sewer collection department for a wastewater sampler capable of taking individual samples every hour during a 24-hour period. There are three basic uses for this piece of equipment. The first would be to monitor industrial users to compare self-monitoring test results and to assure discharge permit compliance. Another use is to continue our search for commercial and/or industrial discharges of copper and zinc. The levels of these heavy metals found in the City's wastewater sludge, although not near any danger levels, are of increasing concern. Lastly is the need to sample for sulfides and sulfates in our wastewater system which result in hydrogen sulfide gas releases and odor problems. We have looked at the possibility of renting the sampler when needed, but the rent is extremely high. The portable wastewater sampler at the treatment plant is not capable of taking individual hourly samples during a 24-hour period on a reliable basis. Although the sampler will be used mainly in the collection department, it will be of some use at the wastewater treatment plant also. There are some problems with the main influent and effluent sampler at the wastewater treatment plant, and this sampler could be used on a temporary basis until repairs or replacement can be made at the plant. Some of the problems with the main sampler at the plant are believed to be due to the control system. In preparation for the 1991 budgeting process, we obtained a quote from Toch Sales Company of Minneapolis for an ISCO Model 3700 Sampler with accessories. The accessories include spare sample bottle cartridge and batteries for continuous sampling. The price quoted was $3,304. A recent verification indicates the quote is still current. The amount budgeted for this item was $4,000; therefore, the purchase of the sampler would be approximately $696 under budget. a. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first alternative is to authorize purchase of an ISCO Model 3700 Sampler from Tech Sales for a cost of $3,304. 2. The second alternative would be to rent a sampler as needed. Current rental charges aro $40 par day with a 3— day minimum charge of $120. Each rental would require two trips to Minneapolis for pickup and return. With anticipated uses of once a month, this would cost $1,440 par year plus pickup and return costs. ilk] C Council Agenda - 1/28/91 C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is the staff recommendation that the City Council authorize purchase of the ISCO Sampler as outlined in alternative 91. D.

Very truly yours, Jim Myers 9 Council Agenda - 1/28/91 10. Consideration of setting a meetinq to interview City Attorney candidates. (J.O.) REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: The City has received 13 responses to the request for proposals form distributed in December 1990. Responses have been reviewed in terms of staff perception of City needs, and the applicants have been rated on the attached worksheet. Council is asked to review the worksheet and select individuals or firms for interviews. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: Motion to appoint two Council members and staff to a screening committee charged with interviewing the top six firms, including James Agosto and Richard Clough. On paper, the top six attorneys are very close in terms of proximity, qualifications, and legal resources; therefore, it would appear justifiable to interview all six. Unfortunately, the two local attorneys that applied, James Agosto and Richard Clough, did not score among the top six candidates. Although Agosto and Clough did not score among the top overall, they may be capable of meeting the City's needs in certain areas of municipal law; therefore, it may make sense to interview them despite their ranking. Under this alternative, eight attorneys would be interviewed by the screening committee, with Council conducting the final interview of the top two or three candidates. Under this alternative, Council should schedule a special meeting for the final interviews. Motion selecting a limited number of candidates for interview and schedule a special meeting. After reviewing the workshoot, Council may wish to select throe or four final candidates and move directly to the final interview stage. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: staff recommends that Council eoloct Alternative I1. On paper, the top six attorneys appear to be equally qualified In terms of capability/proximity/cost. A short preliminary or screening interview of each of the top six should allow us to better understand which firm will make tho best fit. It is recommended that Agosto and Clough be interviewed despite their overall lower ranking because oven if a firm outside, the 13 Council Agenda - 1/28/91 city is selected as general counsel, there may remain some duties that can be done more efficiently at a local level such as code enforcement.

REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: At the previous Council meeting, the Council discussed the purchasing of a used pickup truck for the building inspection department. A number of quotations were presented from various dealers for used pickups in the $7,500 to $10,000 range. Council action authorized the staff to obtain additional quotes for compact pickups and/or used mini -vans that may provide more flexibility for City employees' use. Building Official, Gary Anderson, proceeded to obtain a number of quotations for mini -vans, both new and used, from various dealers. I believe all of the Council members were contacted to individually view a few used vehicles that were found locally. See attached summary for a listing of all quotations received. According to the Building Official, it was my understanding that the Council members' consensus after viewing the vehicles was that they would be in favor of the City purchasing the 1985 Dodge Caravan from I-94 Services in the amount of $5,800. Gordy Hoglund, owner of I-94 Services, had indicated he would do some minor body repairs and provide a 60 -day mechanical warranty along with the installation of the two-way radio currently used by the Building Inspector. This van is a four - cylinder engine with 77,806 miles. While this vehicle would not have an extended warranty that would be available on newer vans with lower mileage, It was my understanding the consensus of the Council was that the lower Initial investment appeared to make it economical for the City to purchase this vehicle. Prior to acceptance, the Council should officially authorize the purchase if this is the vehicle you are satisfied with. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: Authorize the purchase of the 1985 Dodge Caravan from I-94 Services for the amount $5,800 plus sales tax of $348 for a total cost of $6,148. Do not authorize purchase of this vehiclo and continue the search for another vehicle or choose one of the available units provided by another dealer. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: By buying a lower cost vehicle, the City should be able to reduce the amount of depreciation annually that it costs the City to own a vehicle. This assumes that we aro able to 15 Council Agenda - 1/28/91 receive normal service without any major expenditures for repairs. The advantage to purchasing a newer vehicle would be that major repairs would likely be covered by an extended warranty; but, of course, the cost will be initially higher. I believe if the Council is comfortable with the purchase as proposed, the staff will support this vehicle. SUPPORTING DATA: List of vehicles.

Based on citizen complaints previously regarding snowmobile activities in Monticello, the Sheriff's Department has been stepping up their enforcement procedures on apparent violators. As a result of this enforcement action, a number of tickets have been issued to snowmobilers who have been operating on boulevards, some of which have complained they were unaware of the City's ordinances prohibiting boulevard usage. Although the City has placed notices in the local newspaper regarding snowmobile ordinances, the City has not established any signs or postings at entrance points to the city to inform the non- residents of our ordinances. The posting of signs at various points within the city would be similar to the signage we now use regarding parking on city streets during the winter months. One individual protested the ticket that was issued because he was unaware that the City had any ordinances prohibiting boulevard usage. With the Sheriff's Department stepping up enforcement, it would appear that the word will be getting out that snowmobilers cannot continue to use boulevards and violate our ordinances, and It has been suggested by the Mayor, that the County Attorney be notified that it was not the City's intent to severely penalize first-time offenders with a large fine. Some individuals that have been ticketed are concerned about the potential $300 fine for violating an ordinance they did not know existed, and possibly the City should have attempted to notify unsuspecting individuals that we do enforce snowmobile regulations. If the Council is in agreement, I would be willing to write a letter to the County Attorney explaining our snowmobile ordinance and enforcement procedures and recommonding that first-time offenders not be sovoroly punished . In the future, it may be beneficial for the City to supply warning signs that could be installed by the public similar to the ones provided by the Sheriff's Department that briefly summarize our rogulations. These signs could be posted by property owners that have experienced problems to adequately forewarn a snowmobilor of tho potential liability. We can discuss this further Monday evening if you would like. k-
