MINUTES
REGULAR MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL
Monday, February 10, 1992 - 7:00 p.m.
Members Present: Shirley Anderson, Clint Herbst, Brad Fyle, Dan
Blonigen
Members Absent: Ken Maus
Acting Mayor: Dan Blonigen
2. Approval of minutes.
After discussion, a motion was made by Brad Fyle and seconded
by Clint Herbst to approve the minutes of the regular meeting
held January 27, 1992, as submitted. Motion carried
unanimously.
3. Citizens comments/petitions, requests, and complaints.
Tom Holthaus and Steve Holker, developers of the Cardinal
Hills residential subdivision, reviewed a sketch plan of
phase II of the development area. Special attention was paid
to the proposed park area along with a review of the proposed
interconnecting pedestrian walkways. It was the consensus of
the Council that there were no major problems with the sketch
plan.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill noted that the sketch plan
will bn refined and placed before the Planning Commission and
Parks Commission in the form of a preliminary plat. After the
preliminary plat has been prepared, City staff will be
conducting a detailed site plan review to determine if the
plat is consistent with City ordinances regulating residential
subdivision development.
Consideration of revised concept plan for warminq house/
community buildinq/restrooms in west Bridge Park.
John Simola, Public works Director, informed Council that the
public works department has revised the concept plan for the
building in an effort to reduce the cost of the original
proposal as previously requested by Council. Under the now
concept plan, the following changes have boon made: The loft
and gable and windows have been deleted. The wood stove and
chimney have been deleted. The interior finishes on the
exterior walls in the restroom have boon deleted by extending
the burnished block to the coiling. The two exterior doors to
the main area have boon deleted. The heating system has boon
changed from a gas-fired boiler system to forced air. The
Pago i
Council Minutes - 2/10/42
windows have. been changed in the main area to economical
sliding units. The roof pitch has been lowered to lessen the
amount of materials.
Simola went on to note that the changes are expected to save
$10,000 on ttZe original price of $60,000, bringing the cost of
the structure to approximately $50,000.
Simola went on to note that the Parks Commission met on
February 5 and recommended that the roof pitch be raised to
give it some aesthetic appeal to the public eye, as the
warming house is the last thing you see going out of town, or
it's the first thing you see coming into town. The Parks
Commission felt that with the lower pitched roof, it would
look more like a garage than a park building. It is worth the
added cost of $2,000 to raise the roof line to give the
structure more eye appeal.
Council then reviewed the design of the structure in more
detail.
Clint Herbst. noted that he did not believe development of a
new warming house was necessary at this site. He noted that
as far as he;'a concerned, it's a big waste of money.
Brad Fyle noted that the present facility is substandard, and
the park does need some kind of warming house.
Dan Blonigen stated that for the usage the park gets, the
proposal to spend $60,000 is too much money. John Simola
noted that s Imply adding on bathrooms to the existing building
would cost almost $30,000 if it was practical. The cost is
high because bathroom fixtures in a public building must be
vandal -proof: and the building itself must be vandal -proof.
Shirley Andenrson stated that she could go along with the new
proposal.
Jane Phelps was in attendance. She noted that the City should
put up something that is not going to need to be rebuilt. The
City should be looking at the long term when developing a
facility of this nature.
After discussion, a motion was made by Brad Fylo and seconded
by Shirley Anderson to approve the concept of developing a
warming house as noted and include a 5/12 roof pitch in the

and specifications for further review at a future Council
meeting. Voting in favor: Dan Blonigen, Shirley Anderson,
Brad Fyle. Opposed: Clint Herbst.
Consideration of adoptinq revised Job evaluation results/
comparable study appeals.
Rick Wolfsteller reported that when the City Council adopted
the comparable worth study completed by the League of
Minnesota Cities in December 1991, an appeals process was
allowed whereby individual employees were given the
opportunity to request a review of their job points.
Wolfsteller reported that 11 appeals were submitted and
processed.
Sherrie Le, personnel advisor for the League, was the primary
consultant who initially prepared our new comparable worth
study. She also reviewed each appeal and made a judgment on
each appeal's merit accordingly.
As a result of the appeal process, two positions, including
the Building and Zoning Inspector position and the Water and
Sewer Collection Superintendent position, were upgraded to a
higher grade resulting in a change in pay structure. The
remaining appeals resulted in adjustments to points without
any grade changes.
Wolfsteller went on to note that all employees who appealed
their job evaluation results did receive a change in points
assigned with one individual actually losing one point upon
review. He noted that no process is perfect, and many
employees are still unsatisfied with the results; but
nonetheless, Council should adopt the recommendations of
Sherrie Le. Wolfsteller went on to say that the consultant
prepared the original study and as such, it is assumed that
Council would want to accept the consultant's recommendations
pertaining to each appeal. While the Council could certainly
allow additional appeals to be made on the original appeals,
the process could go on forever, which may not be feasible.
Dan Blonigen stated that the study was flawed because 11
employees appealed.
Shirley Anderson noted that she does not blame people for
appealing their points. She stated that she would do the same
thing if she felt that there was a chance that points could be
increased.

D
Council Minutes - 2/10/42
Clint Herbst concurred that he too would have taken the
initiative to appeal points awarded. The number of appeals
does not necessarily mean the system was flawed.
011ie Xoropchak noted that her appeal was submitted in time to
meet the deadline; however, the Economic Development
Director's appeal was submitted after completion by the League
of all other individual appeals. She also noted that of the
appeals submitted. her position was the only position in which
administration appealed point values not addressed by the
employee in his or her appeal.
Rick Wolfsteller noted that when the appeals process was
established, it was understood that anyone that appealed the
points awarded for their position opened up the door for
administration appealing points that could result in the loss
of points. Wolfsteller noted that the position of Economic
Development Director included points for working conditions
that did not appear to be justified. He, therefore, appealed
points for those conditions whereupon the League of Minnesota
Cities agreed with his appeal, and the Economic Development
Director's points were reduced in these areas accordingly.
011ie Roropehak reiterated that the position of Economic
Development Director was the only one that was subject to an
appeal by the Clty Administrator.
Clint Herbst wondered how often the City must review each
position in terms of pay equity and how often is the point
system adjusted.
Rick Wolfsteller responded by saying that adjusting points
occurs only when there is a major change to the job
description. Ideally, there should be no need for wholesale
updates to the pay equity program.
After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and
seconded by Shirley Anderson to accept the recommendations of
the League of Minnesota Cities' Sherrie Le adjusting the point
values for each of the job classes as noted along with pay
adjustments to the Building and Zoning Inspector and the
Water/Sewer Collection Superintendent positions that resulted
from the appeals process.
During discussion, John Simola noted that it was his view that
the procedure for establishing the point system was flawed.
He stated that he did not believe the consultant had a good
understanding of the position because the questionnaire was
not comprehensive, and his 24 -mina to interview with the
Pago 4
Council Minutes - 2/10/92
consultant regarding his position did not provide ample
opportunity to outline and describe his position. In
addition, it was Simola's view that the appeals process was
flawed, as it was of short duration, and he had no opportunity
to discuss his appeal with the consultant face to face.
Simola was concerned, as the appeal had to be made to the same
individual who set the original job values, and this person
may not have been totally objective about the appeal. It was
his view that the League salary structure was affected by the
existing salary structure in the City, and the outcome of the
study would have been different had the League not known the
individual salaries of each employee beforehand. Simola
requested that he be provided the opportunity to sit down with
his supervisor, Sherrie Le, and her supervisor and openly
discuss the appeal.
Simola went on to note that the education requirement
associated with his position is insufficient. He stated that
his position is very diverse and requires an experience level
or education that exceeds the minimum noted in the job
description in order to perform the duties effectively.
Dan Hlonigen suggested that at some point the appeals process
must be completed. It was the consensus of Council to end the
appeal process.
After discussion, a vote on the motion was taken and carried
unanimously.
Consideration of annual maintenance agreement for county state
aid highways in the city of Monticello.
John Simola reviewed the maintenance agreement for snow and
ice removal for County Road 75 from Willow Street near
Pinewood Elementary School to County Road 118 near Riverroad
Plaza. He noted that the agreement covers 258 of snow and ice
removal on County State Aid Highway 39 from the City public
works building to County Road 75. Simola reminded the Council
that the cost paid to the City is based on Wright County's
average annual cost per mile for routine maintenance the
previous year.
Simola went on to recommend that the Council approve the
maintenance agreement as enclosed. This maintenance agreement
will result in a bettor level of service to the community for
snow and ice removal than if performed solely by the county.

Council Minutes - 2/10192
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Brad Fyle to approve the maintenance agreement
with Wright County as presented. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of adoo ting an ordinance amendment to Section
12-2 of the Citv of Monticello Zoninq Ordinance which would
allow a convenience store to operate as a permitted use in a
B-2 zone. Applicant, Citv of Monticello.
Assistant Administrator O'Neill informed Council that a few
months ago the City adopted a zoning ordinance amendment that
moved convenience store use from the permitted use category in
the B-1 zone to the conditional use category . This change had
the inadvertent effect of eliminating convenience stores as a
permitted use in the B-2, B-3, and B-4 zones. This occurred
because in the B-2 zone regulation, it states that all uses
permitted in the B-1 zone are also permitted in the B-2 zone;
therefore, when Council took the action to remove convenience
stores from the list of permitted uses in the B-1 zone,
convenience stores could no longer roll into the B-2, B-3, and
B-4 zones.
After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and
seconded by Clint Herbst to adopt an ordinance amendment to
Section 12-2 of the City of Monticello Zoning Ordinance which
would allow a convenience store to operate es a permitted use
in a B-2 zone. The zoning ordinance amendment is approved
based on the finding that previous City action to remove
convenience stores from the B -i list of permitted uses did not
Intend to eliminate convenience store use from the 13-2 through
B-4 zones. Motion carried unanimously.

8. Review of 1991 liquor store financial report.
Rick Wolfsteller provided the liquor store financial report
and noted that the liquor store operations appear to be very
favorable and that total operating income for 1991 is over
$18,000, a 131 increase over 1990. when including other
Income consisting primarily of interest income on investments,
the total liquor store revenue amounts to $215,192. This Is
$26,000 higher than last year. Gross prof 1t from operations
also showed an increase in 1991 to $331,689 compared to
$295,696 in 1990. Groas profit margins are at 23.491 of total
sales, which appear to be in line with our expectations. The
overall not operating income of 10.81 is also satisfactory and
Is meeting our goals.

After discussion, it was the consensus of Council that Joe
Hartman is doing a good job, and he was commended for
maintaining excellent sales during the recession. It was also
the consensus of Council to advertise in a responsible manner
and to reduce the annual advertising budget from $7,500 to
$6,000.
9. Other matters.
Economic Development Director, 011ie Koropchak, provided
Council with a summary of the results of the business

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Consideration of a resolution adopting amendments to the City
of Monticello Comprehensive Land Use Plan in coniunc tion with
the Chelsea Area Land Use Study. (J.0.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
In June of 1991, the City authorized completion of a land use
study in recognition of the need to update land use policies
affecting the Chelsea corridor area. A number of factors gave
rise to the study, including development of the elementary
school and the need to identify land for industrial
development. These factors and others are outlined in detail
in the study. Suffice it to say that the study was ordered
for the purpose of establishing policies that would allow this
area to achieve its development potential.
It was also the concern of the City Council that the
transportation system supporting the developing area along
with a storm sewer plan needed to be prepared. The
comprehensive plan amendment identifies a transportation plan
supporting the proposed land use configuration. Enclosed for
your review is the hydrology study completed by OSM, which now
provides the City with a greatly improved understanding of how
this large area will be served with storm sewer facilities.
The study is the result of a planning process that included
input provided by numerous citizens and committees. Although
not everyone is in agreement with it, it appears to represent
a consensus of those that participated.
Attached you will find the final report prepared by Northwest
Associated Consultants. The report speaks for its elf, so I
will not describe it in detail.
Council is asked to review the report and to consider amending
the comprehensive plan of the City by adopting the roport as
an amendment document. By adopting the associated resolution,
the City Council Is approving all of the attached exhibits
within the report, which identify future land use patterns
within the study area. Information and findings contained in
this report will than s uporcedo comprehensive plan documents
approved in yoars past.
Stovo Grittman of Nort hwost Associated Consultants will be
reviewing tho plan in detail at the meeting. During the
discussion of tho plan, Council will bo asked to pay
particular attention to two major issues:
1. Tho Industrial Dovelopment Committoe and tho Housing and
Redevelopment Authority have rscommondod to the Planning
Commission that the northern half of the Klein property,
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
that area north of School Boulevard, be designated for
industrial uses. It was the concern of the HRA and IDC
that the City should preserve as much industrial land as
possible. It was also their opinion that this industrial
area zoned under BC regulations would not create a
negative impact on the school uses or neighboring
residential uses associated with the Evergreens
subdivision. This issue has its pro's and con's, which
are identified in the report.
In response to the IDC concerns, the Planning Commission
adopted a resolution which outlines the goal of
preserving undeveloped land for industrial use. The site
for this was not specified as being located at the
Kjellberg site or Klein Bite. Final location of an
expanded industrial area is dependent somewhat on the
outcome of the Evergreens development.
The Kjellberg property (Evergreens) could possibly become
the area for future industrial development, which
consists of over 100 acres of undeveloped land between
the Klein farm and Highway 25, is zoned for residential
use; however, the development of this land for this
purpose appears to have stalled. This time of inaction
may provide the City with the opportunity to take another
look at the zoning of the Kjellberg property with the
future possibility of converting a portion of it to
industrial use. This potential has an impact on the
analysis of the Klein farm land use. For instance, if
the Kjellberg property can be rezoned for industrial use,
then it makes more sense to maintain the Klein property
for residential uses. If, however, Kjellberg's Evergreen
rosidential development occurs, then it may make sense to
proservo the Kloin farm for industrial dovolopment.
Whatever the case may be, ultimate development of the
Kjellberg property will have a significant bearing on
what type of land use is developed at the Klein farm. It
is likely that the Kjollborg property will develop prior
to the Klein property bocauso the Kjellberg property is
already in the city.
City Council is asked in a later agenda item to consider
a rezoning request that would allow establishment of a
church facility near the intersection of County Road 118
and Chelsea Road. The applicant (Evangelical Covenant
Church) is vory familiar to the City Council, as it has
come before the Planning Commission on two separate
occasions with requests to develop in that area. The
latest request is different from the most previous
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
request because the new request calls for development of
the church facility in a position slightly west (200
feet) of the position previously discussed.
As you recall, Council recently denied a rezoning request
that would have resulted in a 5 -acre parcel of commercial
land on the corner of County Road 118 and Chelsea Road;
however, during the discussion, the City Council
suggested that the church submit a now application for
rezoning that would call for the church being located
approximately 200 feet farther to the west of the most
recent proposal. This would result in a 7 -acre parcel
being available for commercial use. The mere fact that
the City Council suggested this concept does not
necessarily mean that Council should vote automatically
to approve it. City Council will be asked in a later
agenda item to consider its final decision on this topic.
During the discussion of the comprehensive plan, this
Item should be brought up and reviewed thoroughly.
8. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Motion to adopt a resolution accepting the planning
report and adopting the report as a comprehensive plan
amendment document.
Under this report, Council agrees with the Planning
Commission and accepts the information contained. The
report becomes a tool by which the City can use to guide
future land use decisions, including future rezonings and
transportation system development policies. The plan
essentially becomes the armor or legal substantiation for
future land use decisions.
Motion to deny adoption of a resolution accepting the
planning report and adopting the report as a
comprehensive plan amendment document.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff rocommonds that the City Council adopt the resolution.
The plan presented is the result of a number of months of
study by City staff, the City Planner, and also includes many
comments submitted by various commissions and individual
citizens within the city. I believe that the Planning
Commission working with Stovo Grittman and Northwest
Associated Consultants have done a thorough fob in analyzing
tho land use patterns and potontial impacts. I look forward
to having this document in hand to assist the City in guiding
future development of the Chelsea corridor area.
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Finally, for information purposes, I have included a copy of
the storm water study completed in conjunction with the
planning study. The City Council will be asked to review and
accept the study, which then becomes a guide for future
development of storm water improvements needed in the area.
City staff has not had ample opportunity to review the study;
therefore, Council is not asked to accept it at this time.

water study for the industrial park watershed; Copy of

U
INTRODUCTION
The City of Monticello, in the area south of Interstate 94 and
east of Trunk Highway 25, has recognized a need to address the
developing land use conflicts in the area. For several years,
the area has been programmed for industrial development.
However, within the past few years, the School District has
constructed a middle school and a bond re`_erendum, passed last
year, will lead to an elementary school on the sane campus. The
school construction has led to a rapid increase in the interest:
in residential growth in the immediate vicinity. The resolution
of a foreclosure on a large parcel directly south of the school
campus has accelerated that interest.
In addition, questions have been raised as to the appropriateness
of existing base zoning, traffic patterns, and the City's ability
to encourage high quality industrial development in the district.
These and other issues have led to this study of the area's land
use and related conditions. It is the objective of this report
to develop a guide development pla.n, in the form of a
Comprehensive Plan amendment, to resolve the various issues as
identified, and integrate the plan into the existing planning
framework. That framework includes utilities and storm water
control measures underway, as well as the developed landscape.
Several items have served to define the study area (shown in
Exhibit A) in addition to the issues already raised. Initially,
the properties which were under immediate development pressure
provided a starting point for analysis. How these parcels were
served by utility and transportation networks then expanded the
scope of study. The general area of review grew to include lands
from Trunk Highway 25 on the west, Interstate 94 on the north,
County 118 on the east, and the City limits on the south. To be
sure that proper transitions and connections were considered,
study often "spilled over" onto adjacent lands for circulation
and/or land use. One of the most significant of such parcels is
the Klein parcel which lies between the school property and the
Kjellberg development.
Background and guidance for this project has been provided
through several meetings with City Staff and various property
owners, community boards, and commissions. The City's
Comprehensive Plan has been utilized as a base for policy
di rection, together with comments from the groups who have
reviewed the drafts. Since some of land included in the
development plan in outside City boundaries, the City cannot
enforce all of the specific recommendations of the report.
However, these plans are designed to help guide the decisions on
adjacent properties so the eventual development will occur in a
coordinated and cohesive manner.

INVENTORY OF EXISTING CONDITIONS
A. PEYSICAL ISSUES (See Exhibit B)
Physical features existing upon tae lard significantly
impact the planning and future developmert of land use and
transportation systems. If is for this reason that review
of such issues within the Chelsea Study Area follows.
Annexation. The study area contains and borders a number of
designated orderly annexation areas. These areas have been
designated to insure that City growth, urbanization, and the
conversion of agricultural land occur in a well planned and
orderly fashion.- The land use plan should be coordinated
with the designated orderly annexation areas so as to
reinforce preferred urban growth patterns.
Transportation. A City's vehicular circulation system, as
it relates to and serves the surrounding land uses, is the
component which makes an area functionally successful. The
transportation system in the study area is complex and
contains roadways of all functional classifications. The
principal arterials in the area are Interstate 94 and State
Highway 25, which generate traffic and draw persons into the
City from regional, state, and out-of-state locations.
County Road 75 (Broadway Avenue) is classified as a minor
arterial and collects traffic from state and interstate
roadways as a main connection to downtown and neighborhood
areas. County Highway 117 and County Highway 118 are
collector streets which primarily serve the Chelsea area by
siphoning traffic from sub -collector and local streets to
access arterial roadways. Chelsea Avenue is the only sub -
collector street which serves the study area by joining
County Highways 117 and 118 to provide an east -west
community corridor south of and in lieu of Interstate 94.
Numerous local streets serve the Chelsea Area to access
individual lots from sub -collector or collector roadways.
it is the local streets which present the most significant
transportation problems in regard to safety, alignment, and
intersection design. More specifically, Cedar Street,
Marvin, and Sandberg Roads and Oakwood Avenue which are all
located near the I.94/Highway 25 intersection, function as
part of a frontage road system. The angular alignments and
numerous access points from State Highway 25 and County Road
117 to these local frontage roads create safety hazards and
difficulty in planning for future extensions, connections,
anal/or improvements to These roadways. Consideration must
be given to the realignment of portions of these roadways to
provide acceptable access, circulation and development
opportunities in the future.
C�
o Drainageway. The study area is bisected by a natural
drainageway which flows between. County Highway 117 and
Fallon Avenue. Sensitivity toward the natural feature
should be incorporated within an area land use plan.
o Trail System. In teens of area circulation, the preparation.
of a land use plan for the subject area should make
provision for a pedestrian trail system. The trail system
should be arranged so as to provide logical routes between
destinations and, for the most part, should follow
vehicular routes. The physical issues map, Exhibit n,
designates potential trail system connections which
coordinate with and complement the land use and
transportation patterns in the study area.
o utility Basements. A number of utility easements overlay
the study area. The lard use plan and subsequent lot
arrangements must be responsive to such easements in an
advantageous fashion.
B. EXISTING ZOMM/LAND USE (See Ebd ibit C)
Because zoning is essentially a tool by which desired land uses
may be achieved, it will obviously be of importance in the
preparation of the Chelsea Area Land Use Plan. In review of the
area's existing zoning designations, a number of concerns have
been identified which will need to be addressed.
School Property. The School District parcel is currently
zoned Single Family Residential. This district allows
educational facilities by conditional use permit. The
School District requested this zoning from industrial and
commercial in 1991.
A second issue, related to the school property which needs
to be addressed, will be the minimization of conflicts
between surrounding area industrial, commercial, and
residential land uses and school facility/associated site
uses.
Heavy Industrial uses. The majority of existing heavy
industrial land uses are concentrated between County Highway
117 and Fallon Avenue south of Chelsea Road, although a
small parcel exists to the west of County Highway 117. The
architectural quality and levels of site design vary
considerably between lots and businesses within this
district. The area, as a whole, also lacks a singular
transportation route which unifies and emphasizes entrance
into the industrial district.
T
Light Industrial Land. A significant portion of land zoned
as licht industrial exists north and east of the Citv,s
heavy industrial uses and extends across Interstate 94 to
Ccunty Road 75 (Broadway Avenue). The location and
orientacicn of this land use is generally well•se ^red,
however, a portion of the School District property abuts
this light industrial zone. Even though the two land uses
are usually compatible, careful consideration is necessary
in order to minimize potential conflicts, provide buffer
areas, and promote high quality light industrial
developments.
This study will address the possibility of the creation of a
new zoning district which would both increase the site
development standards, as well as decrease the intensity of
the industrial use. With such a new district, the exact
boundaries of the various industrial districts may change to
better accommodate the transition between uses and
development quality.
Commercial Land. The study area contains a large portion of
commercially zoned Highway and Limited Business District
land along State Highway 25 and Interstate 94. Attraction
of business from both arterial roadways and connection to
the City's Regional and Central Business Districts via this
interchange have made this area function, successfully,
despite several transportation problems. in addition.,
significant portions of this commercial district remain
undeveloped and under-developed.
It is for these reasons that the commercially zoned land to
the east along Interstate 94 and County Highway 118 be
reconsidered in terms of need and appropriateness. More
specifically, the amount of land, as zoned, may be
unnecessary due to the amount of commercial land remaining
vacant in the State Highway 25 region. In addition,
accessibility of this area from interstate 94 and County
Road 75 is inconvenient at present and construction of an
interchange at County Highway 118 may not be warranted
functionally or financially.
Agricultural/Open Space. Two significant parcels of
agriculturally zoned land exist within the study area. The
first is located along Highway 25, just north of Rjellberg's
Mobile Home Park (Exhibit D). A preliminary plat design of
this area called "The Evergreens" was completed prior to
this study which proposed subdivision of the parcel for
additions of single family uses. The 1st Addition has been
final platted but remains unbuilt.
C�
The appropriateness of this land use in direct proximity to
heavy industrial and commercial zones is questionable. Th`_s
incompatibility and the fact that no construction has taken
place necessitates reevaluation of the remainder of parcel
in association with preparation of the Lard use and
transportation plan for the Chelsea Study Area. Final
Bete:mina t'_on as to the future of this parcel should be
decided by the City at its earliest convenience in order to
facilitate planning and development of surrounding areas.
The second parcel of aariculturally zoned land exists
directly south of the School District property and includes
a portion of it, as discussed previously. The new owners of
the 109 acre tract south of: the school, Value Plus Homes,
have recently proposed subdivision of their property for "R-
1, Single Family" uses. One initial conceptual plan drawn
for the area showed varied sizes of lots focused around
interior park and trail system components which connected to
school and surrounding properties.
o Residential Planned Unit Development. A large tract of land
zoned for Residential PUD uses lies east of County Road 118
(NE Jason Avenue) and extends to the Interstate 94 and
Burlington Northern Railroad rights-of-way. Platting and
development of several additions in this area have taken
place and represent a positive movement toward this type of
( residential lard use in the City.
Orderly Annexation Areas. As stated previously, the study
area contains several orderly annexation areas which are
necessary to reinforce urban growth patterns. The three
most significant parcels, as related to this study, are
located 1) at the intersection of Interstate 94 and County
Road 75 (Hcgland property), 2) east of Fennirg Avenue in the
Jason Avenue/County Road 118 area (Schultz property), and 3)
between County Road 117 and Fallon Avenue (Klein property).
A fourth annexation area exists west of State Highway 25,
which although not directly addressed in this study, will
undoubtedly have an effect on the Chelsea Area and need to
be coordinated with its land use and transportation
components as development proposals west of Highway 25
necessitate this. Each of the orderly annexation areas are
an important part of achieving the desired land use
transitions and integrity between existing land uses.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
CIRCULATION PLAN
I n response to the transportation issues discussed
previously, several changes are being proposed within the
Chelsea Study Area to alleviate existing conflicts, and
i^prove the overall circulation system as development occurs
throughout the region.
92nd Street NE Extension (School Boulevard). The proposed
extension of 92nd Street NE between County Road 118 and
State Highway 25 will function as a collector roadway cc
provide the necessary east -west access in the City south of
Interstate 94. The first phase of the extension is
necessary to serve the School District property directly to
the north. In addition, developers of a single family
subdivision opposite the school property or the south side
of School Boulevard will benefit from the access.
As the extension of School Boulevard continues westward
through the Klein property annexation area, more residential
land uses of varying densities will be served before the
roadway bisects commercial lard uses and becomes part of the
realigned Highway 25 frontage road system. The single
family subdivision final platted and approved for the
Kjellberg property has been accommodated in the extension of
School Boulevard, however, changes to the associated
preliminary plat may be necessary to respond to the changes
in roadway alignment and surrounding area land uses.
Exhibit D shows the subdivision layout and proposed roadway
extension. This issue will be addressed further in the land
use section.
Highway 25 Frontage Road System. As discussed previously,
the existing angular alignment and inferior intersection
design of Cedar Street, Marrin, and Sandberg Roads in
relation to State Highway 25 present safety hazards and
traffic congestion problems. In order to alleviate these
problems, realignment and extension of the roads are
proposed. By providing a frontage road system which closely
parallels Highway 25, existing commercial businesses have
"equal" frontage and visibility while development
ocoortunities are enhanced for the addition of other
commercial lots.
The alignment of frontage roads on both sides of Highway 25
is a safer alternative which limits access on the state
arterial roadway by allowing shared curb cuts controlled at
signalized intersections. Minimal extension of Dundas Road
allows a positive connection to this system and provides
direct access throuc h commercial and indus_rial land use
areas. Sandberg Road, which currently meets E'_ghway 25 only
1,200 feet from the lnterstate 94/F:ighway 25 intersection.,
would be better designed as a rig'.::-in/right-out
intersection which provides direct access from Highway 25
through to Marvin Road. In this regard, the necessary
access is provided on the west side of Hichway 25 while
eliminating dangerous cross -traffic.
Termination of Thomas Park Drive. Thomas Park Drive and
Thomas Circle currently provide access to a clustering of
commercial parcels which front along Interstate 94.
Vehicles approaching this area from County Road 117 are
faced with traversing a confusing intersection at Chelsea
Road where Thomas Park Drive extends north from this point.
Improper space for turning and stacking of vehicles creates
a dangerous situation on County Road 117 as vehicles
turning to go north to the Thomas Circle area must cross
traffic as vehicles on Chelsea Road are trying to enter and
exit onto County Road 117.
in order to minimize vehicular conflicts at this
intersection, it is proposed that Thomas Park Drive be
terminated just north of the Chelsea Road/County Road 117
intersection. The elimination of this small portion of
roadway will greatly reduce traffic congestion and conflicts
at this intersection by forcing vehicles to use the Thomas
Park Drive entrance further east on Chelsea Road. Access
can be maintained to the Monticello Roller Rink and Joyners
Bowling Lanes, and then terminated immediately afterward.
This solution provides the opportunity for a signalized or
otherwise controlled intersection in addition to aesthetic
improvements via landscape design and signage which
designates entrance into the proposed industrial areas.
A suggestion to be considered is shown on the Circulation.
Plan (Exhibit E). This design will alter the traffic
pattern by allowing Chelsea Road to flow directly to Highway
25, bringing County Road 117 into 'T^ intersection. This
alignment would better distribute the traffic, however, the
County Highway Department is not ready to endorse the
concept. As a result, the Concept Development Plan is drawn
with the intersection as it exists.
Fallon Avenue Overpass. The City of Monticello has
expressed a desire to consider construction of an overpass
connecting Fallon Avenue over Interstate 94 cc the downtown
area of the City. The positive and negative aspects of this
concept need to be weighed against are another to determine
its feasibility and necessity.
It may be advantageous to have an additional connection to
industrial and cor.:nercial area, although-ighway 25 and
County Highway 118 serve the same purpose and traffic
volumes may rot justify it at this time. In addition,
improved east -west circulation via the proposed extension of
92nd Street NE would expedite movement between Highway 25
and County Road 113 which currently have cennecciors north
of Interstate 94. Likewise, the improved frontage road
system and signal -'zed intersection at Dundas Road allow for
relatively direct access from commercial and industrial
areas to Highway 25 and consequent connection to the CBD.
However, the positives of this connection are several.
Fallon would serve as a second major aorta -south access
between school campuses. In addition, traffic flow between
the Central Business District and this "new" area of the
community would be improved, strengthening the connection
and helping to reduce the barrier effect of the freeway.
Also strengthened is the access tie between industrial areas
on opposite sides of the interstate. This tie can help to
mitigate truck traffic in the Highway 25 interchange area,
as well as on County 118. The plan has been develcped with
the anticipation that the Fallon overpass will be eventually
developed.
County Road 118/Interstate 94 Interchange. The existing
Comprehensive Plan identifies the need to develcp access
from the interstate via an additional interchange at County
Road 118. Preliminary review of this idea reveals more
potential adverse effects on the surrounding area than
positive ones. For instance, limited visibility of land in
this area from the interstate lessens its value for
commercial uses. Furthermore, promoting commercial use in
this area, separate from the City's main business sector
along Highway 25 and into downtown, may be in opposition to
City objectives. Although an interchange at County Road
118 may take pressure away from the one at Highway 25, the
two existing ramps which provide access eastbound onto the
interstate and westbound off of it, seem to adequately serve
the local population and frequent travelers commuting
between Monticello and the Twin City Metropolitan Area.
The existing Comprehensive Plan pursues the interchange as
an aid to commercial development in the study area. In
fact, the primary advantage of the interchange, with respect
to commercial traffic, is one of convenience based business
development. The development plan has de-emphasized
commercial and industrial land use in this area, however,
due to the introduction of the school and the broad increase
in residential development appears more appropriate toward
the Highway 25 corridor and thus, the "need" for the
increased freeway access at this point is lessened.
6
PROPOSED LAND USE (See Exhibit F)
In response to the concerns raised in review of the area's
existing zoning, physical issues, and vehicular
transportation, a Land Use Plan has been completed for the
Chelsea Area. The plan represents a culmination of ideas
from two Conceptual Land Use Plans which were previously
prepared for this purpose and also reflects input received
from City residents and staff. The follcwing paragraphs
summarize the elements of the plan, which is meant to guide
land use and zoning decisicrs as development progresses in
the region.
School Property. The recent school rezoning to R-1 aids in
the minimization of conflicts betweer. school and surrounding
uses by allowing only compatible lard uses to occur adjacent
to the school property. Residential lard uses of varying
densities surround the school facility on all sides except
the north, where light industrial and commercial uses front
along Chelsea Road. The abutting commercial parcel is of
minimal size and proposed as a neighborhood retail location.
The school property is physically separated from the
commercial area by Chelsea Road. The adjacent light
industrial land uses are aligned so as to back up the school
property line. Setback distances and buffering materials
can be set to promote aesthetic harmony, noise control, and
safety between the light industrial lots and school uses.
The school property is participating in the buffering effort
to facilitate these goals.
Heavy Industrial Land Uses. The Land Use Plan has retained
the majority of the existing heavy industrially zoned land
as such. Due to the number of vacant parcels and the newly
proposed light industrial. area to the east, the heavy
industry will remain bound by Chelsea Road to the north,
County Road 117 to the west, and Fallon Avenue to the east.
Medium density land uses are proposed to the south of the
area, with parcels from each backing up to one another to
allow for a buffer zone between the two land uses.
The perimeter configuration of the roadways acts as a buffer
zone around the district to maintain the visual quality of
the exterior, while outdoor storage and other heavy
industrial activities are allowable on the interior. These
types of lard uses within Monticello are not only a
necessity now, but will be sought after more and more as the
City and Chelsea Area continues to develop. Planning for
heavy industrial uses in this manner lessens the burden on
the City and surrounding area uses when the need for them
arises.
U
Light Industrial Land Uses. Areas designated for light
industrial land uses in the Land Use Plan include the same
areas currently zoned as "I-1", Licht Industrial, but extend
eastward to include a portion of commercially zoned land
north of the school property. In response to the issues of
visibility and access from Interstate 94, and the vacancy
rate of commercially zoned lard along Highway 25, the
addition of light industrial uses adjacent to the interstate
and extension of existing light industrial uses seemed to be
the most legitimate solution.
As mentioned previously, the creation of a new zoning
district for light industrial related uses is proposed. A
need exists in Monticello for increased site development
standards in areas of architectural quality, outdoor
storage, open space, and landscape design. Entitled "B -C",
Business Campus, this district imposes such standards on
light industrial uses. The need is seen as an assurance to
existing and new high quality developments that surrounding
properties will be developed to high quality standards. In
addition, the proximity to the school property encourages
the "campus" development style here.
Commercial Land Uses. After study of commercial land uses
in the Chelsea Area, it has been ascertained that land
currently zoned as Highway and Limited Business Commercial
along Interstate 94 and County Road lie appears to be in
excess of what is needed in the Chelsea Area. As discussed
previously, the land seems to be more warranted for light
industrial land uses which typically do not require a high
visibility location. In addition, access on and off of the
interstate to County Road 118 poses questions of
convenience, as does the feasibility of an expanded
interchange at this location.
In light of this, highway oriented commercial uses have been
expanded to follow the proposed Highway 25 frontage road
system and regional commercial uses have been recommended
and contained in the area west of County Road 117. Improved
access to these areas has been proposed via the realigned
intersection at County Road 117/Chelsea Road and additional
cross axis off of Cedar Street with connection to Dundas
Road and County Road 117. The regional status of land which
is currently zoned for highway commercial uses would provide
greater flexibility in the permitted uses and attract
businesses which do not need a high visibility location.
Medium/High Density Residential Land Uses. within the Study
Area, south of Interstate 94, no areas are currently zoned
for medium/high density residential land uses.
Consequently, conflicts between heavy industrial and single
family districts are apparent. In light of this, steps have
10
been taken to eliminate and prevent further conflicts
between antagonistic land uses in the Prcposed Lard Use
Plan.
Hich density land uses are proposed alone the frontage road
system which is planned to run parallel to Highway 25. Th'_S
approximately 26 acres of land provides a transition between
the highway cernercial uses proposed adjacent to Highway 25
and the single family lard uses east of here. Likewise,
medium density lard uses are proposed south of the heavy
industrial district (Klein Orderly Annexation Area) as a
buffer between the lower density single f amly uses to the
west and scuth.
Some discuss ion has occurred regarding the expansion of
industrial land uses into this area from the north due to
concern over ultimate "build out" condition on the other
industrial zoned parcels. with the transportation system as
designed, such a scenario would occur with appropriate
screening and landscaping. This district would need to be
designed with a interval focus and a perimeter screen to
integrate the visual and trunk traffic impacts on area
single family properties.
Single Family land Uses. A large portion of land that is
currently zoned "A", Agricultural -Open Space or that is
part of the City's orderly annexation areas is proposed as
single family land uses in the Lard Use Plan. This area
includes land directly south of the school property
(Cardinal Hills preliminary plat) adjacent to 92nd Street WE
and progresses west to include the single family subdivision
proposed on the Kjellberg property. Low density residential
uses would benefit from the 92nd Street extension through to
Highway 25, proximity to the school facilities, and
neighboring cc=ercial uses.
o Residential Planned Unit Development. A large portion of
lard zoned as "R -PUD", Residential Planned Unit Development
exists within the study area north and east of County Road
118/Jason avenue (Meadow Oaks PUD). Land Use Concept One
proposes to extend this district to the intersection of 92nd
Street NE and County Road 118. High quality park and trail
system amenities associated with residential developments
planned as an integrated unit will complenient the school
property and surrounding single family land uses.
Special Sites. A few specific sites have been highlighted
here due to current development status. First is the
Kjellberg plat, known as "The Evergreens". This plat was
approved by the City over two years ago but was not
recorded. Although the development plan accommodates the
single family plat, higher intensity land uses in this area
11
may be more appropriate aue to the proposed collector street
and its intersection with T.H. 25. As a result, the
implementation steps in the next section do not include this
area, as the City is pursuing options to abandon the plat.
Secondly, a local church has expressed interest in occupying
a portion of the commercial property along Chelsea near
County 118. The development plan shows land for this type
of institutional use east of County 118. The plan was
developed with the intent of reserving the most desirable
commercial parcel for neighborhood convenience commercial.
Location of a church on this parcel would erode some of that
land, further limiting the commercial floor space potential.
If the City believes the church use to be appropriate, we
would recommend the parcel furthest from the intersection.
12
IMPLEMENTATION SUMMARY
With the background presented in the exhibits and this report, a
number of implementation, steps are appropriate. First is
amendment of the City's Comprehensive Plan. This step is
important on two levels. As the guide to development policy, the
Comprehensive Plan explains the rationale for various zoning
decisions the City makes. Therefore, the base must be
established prior to rezoning an area where a departure from
current land use is proposed. The second level is reflective of
the fact that some of the land is not ripe for immediate rezoning
or capital improvement. This may be for reasons of development
status, as with The Evergreens, or lack of development
Jurisdiction, such as the Klein parcel. The Comprehensive Plan
can, however, provide for the future development of these
parcels, thereby facilitating more immediate development
decisions.
The Comprehensive Plan amendment may take either of two paths.
The City may choose to adopt the development plan as a land use
guide, or it may adopt this report as an amendment document,
which would accomplish the former option, as well as enforce the
supporting text. Procedurally, either step is acceptable.
The next step in implementation is to enact the rezonings
directed by the Plan. As noted, certain of those rezonings
suggested by the plan are not ready for enactment. As a result,
the Rezoning Plan, Exhibit H, shows those which are being
proposed at this time.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
5. Consideration of an ordinance amendment establishinq a
Business Campus zoning district which provides for
establishment of limited liqht industrial business offices.,
limited light manufaeturinq, wholesale showrooms, retail user
in an environment which provides a hiqh level of amenities.,
including landscavirna, preservation of natural features.,,
architectural controls, and other features. (J.O.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Creation of the BC (business campus) zone is in response to a
number of factors:
Development of the school campus along the boundary
of an industrial area has created the need to
upgrade industrial site development standards in
the area.
In reviewing their site selection process, both
Remmele and Tapper's, Inc., indicated that the
quality or industrial site standards were a
negative factor. The BC zone was created in
response to the need to provide a slightly upscale
industrial neighborhood for businesses that desire
this type of neighborhood.
The BC regulations are somewhat similar to the I-1 (light
industrial) regulations. For instance, almost all of the
various types of businesses that are allowed in the I-1 zone
are also allowed In the BC zone. The major differences
between the I-1 regulations and the BC regulations are
highlighted on the copy of the ordinance amendment attached.
Following is a quick summary of the regulations imposod by the
RC zone that are not contained in the I-1 zone regulations.
Purpose. The BC district purpose statement
emphasizes an environment which provides a high
level of amenities.
2. Retail Sales Activity. Indoor limited retail sales
accessory to office and manufacturing uses is
allowed with conditions in the BC zone.
Design and Site Plan Standards. The BC district
requires that 30% of tho parcel remain as groan
space. There is no standard for green space in the
I-1 zono.
Council Agenda - 2/24/42
Exposed metal or fiberglass is limited to no more
than 50% of any one wall. In the I-1 zone, there
are no aesthetic standards.
Setbacks. All setbacks in the I-1 and BC zones are
the same except for the front yard setback, which
is 50 feet in the BC zone and 40 feet in the I-1
zone.
5. Yard Requirements. I-1 zone is 20,000 sq ft; BC
zone is 30,000 sq ft.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Motion to adopt the zoning ordinance amendment
establishing a business campus zoning district.
Under this alternative, the City Council finds that
establishment of the BC zoning district is consistent
with the comprehensive plan amendment. In addition, the
City Council accepts the notion that the business campus
zoning district is necessary to provide a alightly
upscale industrial area adjoining the school property and
adjoining the Remmele and Tapper's development area.
Under this alternative, almost all of the uses allowed in
the I -i zone are also allowed in the business campus
zone; however, the site amenity requirements in the
business campus zone are greater than those found in the
I-1 zone regulations.
If this altornativo is solected, a variety of industrial
neighborhoods will be available for industrial prospects
to choose from.
The Planning Commission, HRA, and IOC have all reviewed
the BC regulations and have been unanimous in
recommending adoption of the ordinance amendment.
2. Motion to deny adoption of the zoning ordinance amondment
establishing a business campus zoning district.
City Council could take the position that requiring
additional sito amonitios as required in the BC district
could act to limit the City's ability to attract
businossos to this area, and thorn is no need to develop
an ordinance that roquiree higher quality around the
school property area; therefore, it does not mako sense
to establish a business campus zone as suggested.
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
C. STAFF/PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the ordinance
amendment approving establishment of the business campus
zoning district. It is our view that the school campus is a
sensitive area that should be bound on the north by an
industrial zone that is properly buffered with outside storage
properly enclosed and with buildings that possess a nice
outward appearance.
In addition, the business campus district will provide a
slightly upscale industrial neighborhood, thereby providing
industrial prospects with another choice of where to locate.
This area will be attractive to businesses such as NAWCO,
Remmele, and Tapper's because the BC zone regulations will
assure them of quality development in the area. At the same
time, the existing I-1 and I-2 districts and associated
regulations continue to be in place, which allows areas for
development of businesses that do not need or want to be
located in a slightly upscale area.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Consideration of adoptinq an ordinance amendment approving
amendments to the zoninq map of Monticello proposed in
conjunction with the Chelsea Area Planninq Study. Applicant,
City of Monticello. (J.O.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The proposed zoning map amendments as noted on the attached
exhibit are suggested to occur in conjunction with the
adoption of the Chelsea Area Land Use Study as a comprehensive
plan amendment. If the City Council adopts the comprehensive
plan without major changes, then it will make sense to approve
the zoning map changes as suggested.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Motion to adopting the ordinance amendment approving
amendments to the zoning map of Monticello proposed in
conjunction with the Chelsea Area Planning Study.
The motion to adopt the zoning map changes should be
based on the finding that the zoning map amendments are
consistent with the comprehensive plan amendment.
Under this alternative, it is assumed the City Council
has accepted the comprehensive plan amendment and is now
ready to approve the zoning map amendments as proposed.
The Planning Commission recommended that the City Council
select this alternative.
2. Motion to deny adoption of the ordinance amendment
approving amendments to the zoning map of Monticello
proposed in conjunction with the Chelsea Area Planning
Study.
If the City Council has not adopted the comprehensive
plan amendment, or if there are other facts supporting
donial, then this alternative should be adopted.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Unless there are major objections to any of the proposed
zoning map changes, and unless the City Council has denied
adoption of the comprehensive pian amendment, then the City
Council should move forward by adopting the ordinance
amondment approving the zoning map amendments as suggested.
D. SUPPORTING DATAt

Consideration of a request to amend the zoning map by rezoning
a 12 -acre portion of Auditor's Subdivision, Lot 17, from B-3
(hiahwav businessl to a combination of PZM (performance zone
mixed - 5 acresl and B-2 (limited business - 7 acres).
Applicant, Evanqelical Covenant Church. (J.O.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
As noted previously as part of the discussion of the
comprehensive plan amendment, the Evangelical Covenant Church
is requesting for a third time that the City consider adopting
zoning map amendments that would allow establishment of a
church facility in an area that was originally intended for
commercial use. This request, however, is different from the
previous request in that it provides for 7 acres of commercial
land on the corner of Chelsea Road and County Road 118 for
commercial use. The previous proposal allowed only 5 acres of
land in that area for commercial use. The proposal also calls
for development of land west of the church to become zoned for
business campus uses.
As has been noted previously, the City Planner has indicated
that the 17 acres originally intended for commercial use
should not be reduced. It is the planner's view that 17 acres
of commercial land (B-2) is the proper amount to preserve
given the size of the area that this commercial district will
ultimately serve when the area is fully developed. The plan
as proposed will reduce the 17 acres Into a 7 -acre parcel for
commercial use, 5 acres for church use, and 5 acres for
business campus use. The City Council needs to determine
whether or not adding an additional 2 acres to the commercial
use on the corner is sufficient to justify reversing a
previous decision.
B. ALTERNATIVE. ACTIONS:
Motion to adopt the ordinance amendment approving the
proposed zoning map amendment based on tho finding that
the amendments are consistent with the comprehensive plan
and compatible with the adjoining land uses.
Under this altor nativo, the City Council is satisfied
that the 7 -acro parcel of land on the corner is
sufficient to servo the long-torm need for commercial
land in the area or there are other areas ovllable to
satisfy commercial land demand, most notably, the PEM
district in the area of the intorsection of CSAR 75 and
1171 therefore, the commercial area displaced by the
church and Industrial land use is not determined to be a
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
problem. In addition, the Council could view the church
use as being compatible with adjoining school,
commercial, and industrial uses.
According tm the planner, there will be a demand for
commercial land in the area that will not be satisfied
with the remaining 7 acres of commercial land.
Please note that the problem that the church is having in
finding affordable land that is properly zoned, although
unfortunate, should not be a factor in decision making.
2. Motion to recommend denial of proposed rezoning request
based on the previous finding that:
1. Commercial uses displaced by the church cannot be
relocated without encroachment on residential
areas.
2. Development of a church imbedded between commercial
and industrial uses is not desirable.
3. The best use for the property is for commercial use
because of proximity to the freeway and due to its
separation from residential uses.
4. The 8-3 property remaining at the corner (7 acres)
after the rezoning is insufficient to satisfy long-
term demand for commercial land in the area.
5. The need for rezoning has not been sufficiently
demonstrated, as other land is available for thio
type of use.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
On a 3-2 vote, Planning Commission recommended denial
(alternative #2) based on the reasons noted. Staff agrees
with the position taken by the majority of the Planning
Commission.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Consideration of bids for design/build for baseball and
softball field lightinq alonq with project fundinq sources.
(J.S.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
At the January 27 meeting, the City Council authorized staff
to develop a set of specifications for deeign/build lighting
of two or four fields at the NSP ball complex. City staff was
allowed to use a limited amount of technical expertise from
OSM up to an expenditure of $1,000 in developing the
specifications. In addition, City staff was to check out
available funding sources such as obtaining poles from
Northern States Power. in addition, the Monticello Softball
Association and Youth Baseball Association were asked to
consider funding a portion of the lighting systems in additiork
to paying for the cost of electricity for lighting the fields.
Lastly, City staff was to approach the Monticello School
District for funding assistance in lighting the baseball field
since it is used by the 9th grade and junior varsity school
baseba 11 teams.
Drafting of the specifications proved to be a complex and
detailed project after meeting with local electricians, OSM's
electrical engineer, representatives of the Minnesota
Dopartmont of Transportation, and representatives from two
sports lighting manufacturing firms.
The final specifications, totaling some 34 pages plus maps,
included a base proposal for lighting all four fields with
wood poles on a turnkey basis, an alternate proposal for
lighting two fields with wood poles on a turn-koy basis, and
a third alternate for lighting either four fields or two
fields with a steel pole/concrete base combination with the
City crows doing much of the pole setting and trenching with
help E rom Northern Staten Power crows and a subcontractor.
The deeign/build proposals wore received on Thursday,
February 20. Proposals wore received from two companies, one
from Olson 6 Sone Electric of Monticello, and another from
Eloctric Systems of Anoka, Inc. The low bids wore received
from Electric Systeme of Anoka, Inc., and wore for $138,495
for lighting four fields with wood polos on a turn-koy basis
and $88,512 for lighting two fields with wood poles on a turn-
key besets. The savings for a significant amount of work by
the City and subcontractors ranged from $2,600 to $3,214. The
actual savings proved to be quite low considering that the
City would have to hire a uubcontractor for raising the poles
in the place. The cost to change to stool poles to allow the
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
City to do a portion of the work did not appear to be
beneficial. A copy of the bid tabulation is enclosed for your
review.
Portions of the outside funding for lighting the fields are
not yet determined. After spending quite some time with
numerous Northern States Power representatives attempting to
obtain up to 18 poles for lighting all 4 fields, I was
informed that no new poles were available and that used poles
would be highly suspect for the use intended. I was then
informed by one of the public relations people for Northern
States Power that the City could apply for a direct grant from
NSP for assistance with lighting the fields. I was informed
that this process could take up to two months but then was
referred to the office of Jerry Zimmer in St. Cloud, also a
public relations individual for Northern States Power.
Mr. Zimmer informed me that he was a member of the local grant
committee for NSP and would hold a special committee meeting
if I would spell out in a letter the needs and the individuals
benefiting from such a grant. I sent the grant request to NSP
on February 13, and Mr. Zimmer informed me that the local
committee approved the grant request, and it was now being
considered at the corporate level. Mr. Zimmer indicated that
he would attend Monday evening's meeting, hopefully with good
news. Everyone I talked with from NSP was very supportive of
the project and felt it worthwhile. The value of the 18 wood
poles originally requested was $25,000. Although no actual
dollar amount was requested, if NSP is able to give the grant
for lighting of the ballfielde, it is expected to be
significant.
The City has also received a pledge of $1,500 from
Professional Services Group, as now being the contract
operator for the Wright County Compost Facility, they have a
strong presence in the Monticello area and are interested in
assisting with such worthwhile projects.
The City has also received letters of pledgee or commitment
from the Monticello Softball Association and the Monticello
Youth Baseball Association. The Softball Association is
willing to pledge $5,000 over the next ton years for lighting
two fields and $10,000 toward lighting four fields. The
Monticello Youth Baseball Association would pledge $10,000
over a period of ton years toward lighting two fields and
$15,000 toward lighting four fields. Both groups also pledged
to pay the electric bill. Funding from the vFW and American
Legion would more than likely be funneled through the
Monticello Youth Baseball Association and included in their
pledge.
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Lastly, we received word from Sheldon .Johnson, Superintendent
of the Monticello School District, that they would be looking
for funding from the City for other items such as tennis court
lighting and multi-purpose buildings at Pinewood Elementary
School and would be willing to talk about lighting ball fields
when those other items are discussed. A copy of the
Superintendent's response is enclosed for your review.
As stated previously, City staff's goal and the goal of the
various groups supporting this project feel that ultimately
four fields should be lit. The Monticello Park Board made a
motion at their last meeting recommending that the City
Council light a minimum of two fields and that if outside
funding sources are available to supplement the City's budget
that every effort be made to light four fields at this time.
An actual copy of the resolution Is available for your review.
We do have some additional costs on top of the bide as
received. We have the $1,000 we spent with OSM in developing
the specifications, and we have a coat of $1,150.80 from NSP
in getting 3-phase, 480 volt power to the ballfields. This
must be added to the above costs, making the total cost for
four fields $140,645.80 and the total cost for two fields
$90,662.80. Considering the funding as pledged from the
Softball Association, the Youth Baseball Association, and PSG,
we would have a total of $16,500 available from outside
sources to light two fields. This would leave the City's
expenditure of $74,162.80, which Is under the 1992 budget
amount of $80,000. This, however, does not include any
funding from Northern States Power and also assumes that the
$15,000 from the Softball and Baseball Associations would be
fronted by the City and paid back over a period of time by
those associations.
To light four ballfiolds, we would have $26,500 available from
outside funding sourcoo, excluding NSP and utilizing the
$80,000 in the budget would leave us short $34,,145.80. If
NSP's grant was in the area of this shortfall, it would
certainly be worthwhile to light all four fields at this time.
This, of course, is assuming that NSP does grant us money to
help light the four fields along with the other outside
funding sources and that the City Council would spend the
$80,000 in the 1992 budget and up -front the $25,000 from the
ballflold aesociations and got paid back over a period of
time.
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative for lighting two fields would be to
accept the pledges from outside sources, except NSP, for
a total of $16,500, with the actual total investment by
the City of $74,162.60.
2. The second alternative would be to light all four fields
assuming the City expends its $80,000 in the 1992 budget,
that we receive $26,500 from outside funding sources,
except NSP, and that we receive a grant in the area of
$34,000 from Northern States Power toward lighting of
four fields.
3. The third alternative would be to light two fields while
accepting the grant from outside sources, including NSP,
and lower the expenditure from the 1992 budget below
$74,162.80. This becomes a little complicated, as the
original $80,000 was also raised predominantly from
Northern States Power; and to ask them for a direct grant
when the money was already budgeted for may be a little
bit more complicated than we wish to deal with.
4. The fourth alternative could be any combination of the
funding sources not mentioned above to light either two
or four fields.
5. The fifth alternative could be to do nothing at this
time.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the Public Works Director, Park
Superintendent, and Parke Commission that the City Council
consider lighting a minimum of two fields as outlined in
alternative 01 and, further, if the grant from NSP is
significant, that the City Council consider lighting all four
fields as outlined in alternative #2, which is our goal.

Monticello Softball Association
Monticello, Minnesota 55362
TO: City of Monticello
Lighting the city softball complex here in Monticello is
something we feel is very important to recreation in this
community. So we would like to do our part to help make
this project a reality.
The Monticello Softball Association is willing to pledge
$ 10,000.00 towards lighting four fields or $ 5,000.00
towards lighting two fields.
Our proposal is that we would pay the city $ 500.00 per year
starting at the conclusion of the 1993 season, if two fields
were lighted, or $ 1000.00 per year starting at the
conclusion of the 1993 season if all four fields are lighted.
We would keep paying the appropriate amount until the
$ 10,000.00 pledge was met. If at the end of ten years
of paying $ 500.00 per year and all four fields were not
lighted our pledge would then stop at $ 5,000.00.
We would be willing to pay more but the yearly maintenance
fee we already pay takes most of our yearly profits. We
must wait until 1993 to start paying because we would not
be able to benefit much until then, as the state and
district tournaments for 1992 are already scheduled.
Along with our proposal we would also be willing to pay for
our share of the electic cost for lighting the fields.
We as board members hope this is agreeable and beneficial
to the city as you decide wheather or not to under take
this project.
We would like to thank you for your consideration on this
matter.

RE Pledge of contribution for lighting of ball fields
It has come to our attention that you are considering installation
of lighting for some of the ball fields in the City but that
funding of the project may be a problem.
This project is consistent with the types of projects we like to
support. In the past we have contributed to publication of the
1991-1992 Monticello High School sports calendar and toward
construction of the "Magic Kingdom" park at Pinewood Elementary
School.
It is a pleasure to pledge our support in the sum of $1,500 toward
lighting of ball fields to be enjoyed by the youth of our
community.

AL1:n: Mr. Jerry Zimmer
Re: Grant request for ballfield lighting for the
City of Monticello ballfield complex located
near the NSP Training Center on West River Street
Dear Mr. Zimmer:
As per our recent phone conversation, the City of Monticello would like
NSP to consider a grant to assist with a proposed ballfield lighting
project. The City of Monticello built a four -field ball complex in 1986
wl,tit the help of a state grant and volunteers in and about the city of
tionticollo. The facility is located along I-94 just west of the NSP
Training Center on West River Street on land leased from NSP. In 1988,
the Cl.ty added a block structure to the center of the four -field complex.
This block structure houses restrooms for men and women and a concession
nr7ea. The City's investment in the overall complex is in excess of
$125,000, excluding the hundreds of hours of volunteer help in building
the facility.
since initial construction, the facilities have seen five full playing
aunnuns. The facilities are used by the Monticello Slow Pitch Softball
Asmuclation, the Girl's Softball Association, the Monticello Youth
IlaAssociation, and ninth grade and junior varsity school baseball.
The youth Rnseboll. Aeeoclati.on also includes teams from the Veterans of
rord yn wore and American Legion. Also, as per our lease agreement with
Nntthern States Power, the complex is open for NSP during the last
weekend of July each year for company -sponsored games.
For the ]not- three yonre, tho Minnesota State Tournament for summer youth
fur PeeWee Roese and Sandy Roufax has been held at the complex. in
otHiLlon, at least sevon softball tournaments were held at the fields
Mr. Jerry Zimmer
February 13, 1992
Page 2
this year, along with two district playoffs. Use of the fields has grown
extensively since the fields were originally opened in 1987, so much so
that there is a shortage of playing fields in the Monticello area.
The real shortage of playing fields affects the Monticello Youth Baseball
Association the greatest. This group operates on 100% volunteer help and
currently starts with 11 year olds up to 18 year olds. This youth
program alone affects 300 area youngsters and families. The shortage of
fields in the Monticello area has put pressure on the coaches and
association so much so that it may be possible in the near future that
bods will have to be cut from the program, and the association will have
to ge to try -outs rather than letting all those who wish to play
participate.
One answer that can provide an additional four fields immediately is
lighting of the existing four fields near the Monticello Training Center.
if these four fields were lit, the playing capacity could be doubled.
Not only would more playing time be available for softball, but
eGnentlally two games could be played each week night by the Youth
Bnsnball Association. The younger boys would play the first game without
liyhLs, and the second game would be played under the lights by the older
I�uyn. 1'1119 assuc:.latiun, as well as the other ball associations, is made
up of Individuals not only from the city of Monticello but the entire
surrounding wren, including Monticello Township, Silver Creek Township,
Uig Lake Township, and portions of the City of Otsego. The whole area
has a lot to lose if additional fields can't be brought into play.
Tito expected cost to light all four fields on a turn -key basis is in the
neighborhood of $140,000 to $160,000. The Monticello City Council has
placed into the 1992 budget the sum of ;80,000. This may not be enough
to light even the first two fields on a turn -key basis.
City staff has prepared detailed specifications including options for
City employees to do a major portion of the work such as excavating and
setting the pole bases and poles and all of the trenching for the
electrical. work. Because of the technical nature of the work, we cannot
rely ail volunteer help as we did for the original building of the
facility, so we are seeking funds from different organizations to help
with the project. We are expecting some funds from the American Legion,
Lila Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Monticello Men's Slow Pitch Softball
Annoc:latlon, the Summer Youth Baseball Association, and Professional
Services Group. Professional Services Group is the contract operator for
the City of Monticello Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Wright County
Composting Facility located in Monticello Township.
lite bids for the proposed lighting, Including all the options, are due
on rebruary 20. We expect to take this information, along with the
pledyes of monetary support, to the City Council on the evening of
February 24. At this time, the City Council will make a decision as to
whether the project is a "go" or "no go.,,

AL this time, we are asking Northern States Power to lend its direct
support in the form of a monetary grant to the lighting of the four
ballfi.elds, which will be of benefit to the families and youngsters not
only in Monticello but the surrounding area. We ask that you respond by
the evening of Monday, February 24.
Thank you for your consideration.

MEETING MINUTES EXCERPT - MONTICELLO PARKS COMMISSION
FEBRUARY 19, 1992 (UNOFFICIAL DRAFT)
Consideration of recommending installation of ball field
lighting at the NSP ball fields
Roger Mack reported that the public works department will be
receiving bids on February 20, 1990 from firms interested In
installing Ball field Lighting at the NSF fields. The bid
specification included two alternatives for 1 fighting the
field, the firnt alternative called for lighting two fields
and wired In a manner that would allow future installation of
two addil.lcmal nets of lights. The second alternative called
for a bid on the cost to light all four fields Immediately.
Mack noted that the budget figure of S80,000 was projected
based on lighting two fields in 1992. The four field
alternative was specified because there is a chance that
substantial funding along with volunteer labor may be
available from other sources to supplement the $80,000
budgeted thereby making it possible to fund four fields.
The Commission asked Mack if it is necessary to light all four
fields at this time. Mark noted that the demand for
additional f.irltls is s.ignJficant and lighting two flelcls wl.11
only help in the ahurt run. On the other hand, 1 fighting four
rician will oat1wfy t:he longer terms needs.
After dlscusslon, mot:lon by Bruce Theilen and seconded by
Roger Carlson to recommend .light.lny of two fields immediately
and support lighting of two additional tir,lds JE alternative
funding sources supplementltig City budgeted funds are
available. Motion carried unanimously.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
9. Consideration of postponinq the water park study and
authorizing City staff and Parks Commission to open dialogue
between the School District and adjoinin_q townships with the
goals of defining community recreation/civic center/ice arena
needs and identifyinq cooperative strategies for meetinq
needs. (J.O.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
This memo is to inform Council that the Parks Commission is
requesting that Council postpone further action on the water
park study. Although the Parks Commission believes that the
water park concept should continue to be explored and should
ultimately be placed before the voters, it has been determined
that further progress on this concept should be postponed
until such time that a thorough inventory of community -wide
recreation needs is developed. It is proposed by the Parks
Commission that the first Step Should be to establish a
dialogue with the School District and all townships and cities
that adjoin the city of Monticello. This study should also
attempt to identify opportunities for cooperation between
jurisdictions in meeting recreation needs. It would be a goal
of this group to devise a method of distributing costs fairly
to those that want and use various local and community
recreation facilities. City/School/Township cooperation could
potentially include joint funding of certain:
- Capital improvements (civic center/arena, aquatic
centers)
- Recreation programming
- Operations and maintenance of facilities
- Athletic fields development and maintenance
Following is a summary of the events leading to the latest
recommendation by the Parks Commission.
On January 13, the Parks Commission introduced to Council the
concept of developing a family-oriented "aquatic center" and
requested that Council authorize preparation of a study which
would determine tho proper design, operation, and financing of
an aquatic center. In response, Council authorized staff to
request proposals from firms interested in conducting the
study.
Staff then prepared a request for proposals form and submitted
It to ton engineers and architects that have experience with
municipal pool development.
On January 27 at the citizens commonts section of the City
Council mooting, community residents from Big Lake, Big Lake
Township, Monticello Township, and the city of Monticello
15
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
voiced their concern regarding the possibility of development
an aquatic center without first reviewing the potential for
the development of a civic center/ice arena. It was noted to
the group by members of the Council that since the arena would
serve people from more than one taxing jurisdiction, it should
be financed accordingly. It was also noted to the group that
the City would likely work closely with the School District
and townships when it's time to move ahead on development of
an arena. It was the consensus of Council to pass the matter
to the Parks Commission for further review.
At the same meeting, members of the Council noted that the
input on the aquatic center concept had not been entirely
positive from people they had spoken with. Brad Fyle noted
that there was a concern among some that the City should not
make a large investment in a facility that cannot be used all
year long.
On Monday, February 3, the Monticello School Board was
approached by the Hockey Association regarding development of
an ice arena. As a result, the School Board asked Shelley
Johnson, Russ Vandell, and Jim Herbst to attend the February 5
meeting of the Parks Commission to discuss ice arena
development.
On February 5, the Parks Commission held a special meeting.
Following is the excerpt from the meeting minutes that
applies:
1. Receive staff update on process of solectinq
consultant to conduct feasibility study on
developmont of water park. AND
Review Council request that the Parke Commission
develop a City policy outlining City particloation
in development and operation of an ice arena.
The Assistant Administrator informed the Parks
Commission that at the most recent Council meeting,
Council had received testimony from members of the
Hockey Association. The Association expressed the
desire that t ho City investigate the possibility of
developing an arena. Council directed City staff
to refer the matter to the Parks Commission for
further study and determine to what extent the City
should be applying resources toward development of
an ice arena.
O'Nolllalso noted that, at the same meeting, some
Council mombors expressed serious concern regarding
the potential cost of the aquatic center and some
16
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
members also noted that the input they received
from citizens regarding the aquatic center proposal
had not been positive.
Members of the School District administration and
Board spoke to the commission.
Shelly Johnson informed the Planning Commission
that at the previous School Board meeting, it was
determined that the Buildings and Ground
Subcommittee (Herbst, vandell) should meet with the
Parke Commission to express a willingness to meet
with the City and other jurisdictions for the
purpose of identifying park needs and defining
opportunities for mutual benefit and cooperation.
Russ Vandell stated he is excited about the aquatic
center and noted there must be an opportunity to
team up with the City, For instance, the aquatic
center could be located near a future arena so as
to allow for joint parking.
Jim Herbst noted that the City and School should
work hand in hand toward development of an all-
purpose arena. Dick Frio stated that it makes
sense to develop a partnership and develop an
ongoing relationship that will allow the
City/School/Township to work together in meeting
the park and recreation needs of the community in
an efficient manner.
Members of the Hockey Association mentioned
successful cooperative efforts by other communities
to develop civic centers. Gene Opatz stated 1f we
work together as a community, we can got it done.
Mark Holmes noted that the aquatic center is not as
doelreable because it can only be used throe months
per year.
Bruce Thiolon romindod the group that hockey arenas
can be a financial drain on the community. He
outlined problems with the Delano and Buffalo
facilities.
Joe Havel stated that many of the problems can be
overcome by proper facility design and good
management. When analyzing risk, we should look at
the good facilities and not just the ones that have
suffered losses.
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Russ Vandell agreed. The re are places that have
done things the wrong way. We need to take a look
at what is possible, identify the pitfalls, and do
a first class job.
Dick Frie noted that he has researched a number of
facilities. The common theme of success stories is
that successful ventures ware cooperative ventures.
A general discussion ensued.
After discussion, a mot ion was made by Bruce
Thielen and seconded by Larry Nolan to recommend
that Council direct City staff to organize a
meeting between the City, School, and Townships
(Monticello, Big Lake, Silver Creek, Becker,
Otsego) for the purpose of defining area recreation
needs and for the purpose of identifying
opportunities for satisfying needs in a
cooperative, cost efficlent manner. Motion carried
unanimously.
On February 14, the City received aquatic center study
proposals from throe firms. The study proposals range in cost
from $9,800 to $13,500.
On Saturday, February 15, Dick Frie, Bruce Thielen, and Jeff
O'Neill attended a free seminar in Crystal on civic center
development and operation. The seminar stressed that
understanding community needs and community consensus are
critical factors in determining whether or not a civic canter
project will be successful.
On February 19, 1992, the Parke Commiseion reviewed the staff
recommendation to postpone the aquatic cantor study and
consider requesting that Council authorize opening a dialogue
between City/School/Township so that various recreation/civic
cantor needs and funding options could be discussed. As a
result of the discussion, the commission postponed the aquatic
center study and unanimously recommended that Council
authorize City staff to invite the City of Otsego and
adjoining townships and the School District to meet with City
representatives to discuss rocroatio n/civic center needs.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Motion to postpone the aquatic conter study and authorize
City staff to invite the School District and township
officials to meet with City re prosontativos to discuss
recreation /civic cantor facility needs and determino the
potential for cooperation.
18
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Under this alternative, Council agrees that there are
opportunities for cooperation that should be explored,
and it makes sense to attempt to identify these
opportunities. If this alternative is selected, staff
will draft a letter of invitation outlining the purpose
of the initial meeting. Future meetings will depend on
the outcome of the first meeting.
Motion to postpone the aquatic center study and deny
authorization to invite the School District and township
officials to meet with City representatives to discuss
recreation/civic center facility needs and determine the
potential for cooperation.
Council could take the position that past experience
relating to other issues tells us that it is a waste of
time to try to develop cooperative ventures with our
sister local governments. It could be argued that one's
time is better spent focusing on City recreation needs.
Furthermore, given the current makeup of local townships,
it is not likely that recreation needs will have a
priority that will result in active participation by
township officials.
- C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends selection of alternative 41. Critical to the
successful development of a mayor public facility is
development of a consensus on what type of facility should be
constructed, if any. It does not appear that such a consensus
exists at this time. Perhaps a good first step toward
building a consensus is to bring the powers that be together
under one roof to discuss community needs and consider
developing a plan for moving forward as partners.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:
Community recreation use and service delivery inventory
(draft). 1t is likely that representatives from the School
District and Hockey Association will be in attendance.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
to. Consideration of developina a Citv newsletter. (R.D., W.R.,
s.o., C.s.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Over the past few months, City staff has been gathering
information and costs regarding development of a City
newsletter as suggested by the City Council in December of
1991. staff agrees that mailing a newsletter to city
residents is a good idea because there is a definite need to
provide up-to-date information to citizens regarding services;
and sending information in a uniform, consistent manner via a
newsletter is a good way to help citizens watch for
information on a regular basis. This is a much better way to
reach residents than trying to mail information with utility
bills as we have tried in the past. We have found that
utility bills should be mailed in a consistent manner rather
than changing the format of mailing every quarter.
City staff has put together a summary of our newsletter
proposal for City Council's review, which includes general
benefits of producing a newsletter, a description of the
newsletter, proposed newsletter policies, alternatives for the
method of developing a newsletter, and the benefits of each
approach to preparing a newsletter. Please let us know if you
have any questions you would like answered prior to the
Council meeting Monday evening.
Under both alternative tl and #2 below, it is proposed that an
additional computer be purchased, which would provide clerical
staff with the word processing necessary to complete the
additional typing duties associated with the newsletter. In
the past few months, we have found that word processing
requirements have been increasing with the addition of the
Police Commission, Parks Commission, and other programs, while
at the same time there has been no reduction in work load. We
have come to the point whore additional word processing
related duties cannot realistically be expected to be
completed unless the current staff is provided with the
necessary word processing tools to got the job done. It is
proposed that undor both alternatives the word processing
equipment be located at the receptionist/utility billing
clork's desk. Wanda would be responsible for preparation of
all the articles that would be included in the newsletter.
As another alternative, Council could avoid the purchase of an
additional computer and have the Office Manager prepare
newsletter articles if the existing work load could be
reduced.
20
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Motion to approve development of a City newsletter
prepared entirely in-house at an estimated start-up cost
of $2,325.
2. Motion to approve development of a City newsletter with
typing only in-house and all other preparation done out
of house at an estimated start-up cost of $1,823.
3. Motion to deny development of a City newsletter.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
City staff agrees with Council 's idea that a City newsletter
should be developed, and we are enthusiastic about the
concept. We have reviewed a number of newsletters prepared by
other communities such as Otsego, Buffalo, and Elk River.
Cathy, Wanda, and Karen have all taken a class on their own
time on how to develop a newsletter and I believe are quite
capable of preparing a newsletter that the City Council would
be proud of.
Staff recommends that Council authorize development of the
City newsletter to be prepared entirely in-house at an
estimated start-up cost of $2,325 based on the fact that doing
the newsletter entirely in-house gives staff full flexibility
in the preparation of the newsletter, allowing us to make
updates to the newsletter as St's being prepared. In-house
development eliminates running back and forth to review draft
copies of the newsletter if it's prepared by a printer. The
quality of the newsletter is likely to be batter due to
greater staff commitment and ownership in the development of
the nowaletter if done in-house. Finally, in-house
development of the newsletter is preferred because articles
can be typed as the time is available, whereas if done out of
house, the articles have to be typed and submitted at once far
in advance of the printing of the newsletter.
As a final note, a very important stop in the process that has
not boon o stablishod is doto rmining how the City newsletter
masthead w ill be developed. I t is expected that Council will
want to use the City logo and incorporate this logo into the
masthead. In addition, I suspect that the newsletter will
need some kind of title. Council may wish to discuss a
potential title for the newsletter or establish a process for
identifying a title and designing the masthead. If Council
does not have any specific ideas, City staff will work on this
aspect of the project and provide some ideas at an upcoming
meeting.

tt. Review of public works facility concept plana and
authorization to distribute request for proposals for desiqn
of phase I. (J.S.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The public works expansion study authorized by the City
Council in September of 1991 is now complete. The study
proved to be no small task for the building committee made up
of Councilmember Blonigen, Councilmember Fyle, myself, and
Roger Mack, with input from Matt Theisen, the Water/Sewer
Collection Superintendent. With the assistance of Peter
Brozek from TKDA Engineers, Architects, and Planners, the
building committee spent almost five months looking at the
current and future needs of the public works department, water
department, and sewer collection department. After reviewing
the needs, space requirements, and site limitations, the
building committee, along with Mr. Brozek, determined that the
existing public works site could meet the needs of the public
works department for the foreseeable future. After this was
determined, not a great deal of time was spent looking at
other options such as the reservoir site. It was felt that at
some point in the future, 20 years+ down the road, if space
limitations at the existing site were noted, the water
department and sewer collection department could be moved to
a building out in the reservoir area. This also could occur
if a water treatment facility needed to be built.
The goal of the building committee was to come up with an
efficient, functional schematic or plan that would meet the
needs of the public works department for 20 years into the
future and to do it in such a fashion as to consider the best
use of the site and the most efficient use of the buildings,
therefore obtaining the best value for the dollar.
The overall plan or schematic involves 30,615 sq ft of space
combining old and now buildings at an estimated total
construction cost of $1.3 million and would be boat
constructed in three phases. Phase I would be the
construction of a 15,000 eq ft freestanding building north of
the existing maintenance block building. The construction of
this now building would require the removal of the old
2,400 eq ft polo barn and the removal of the existing
underground fuel storage tanks, the latter of which would need
to be done in the future whether or not a new building is
built.
22
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Additionally, the eastern portion of this new building
encroaches into the old dump area, so approximately
3,500 cu yds of soil correction would need to be done du ring
the construction. The estimated construction cost of this
phase I building is approximately $540,000 (excluding soil
corrections) .
Phase II consists of filling in the space between the existing
maintenance building and the now storage building and using
this area for a wash bay and a parts room. Additionally, the
existing shop would be remodeled, and the existing roof, which
is in need of repair, would be replaced. The area to the
south of the existing maintenance building would receive an
update with stalls for smaller vehicles and a new lunch,
meeting, and training room. The estimated construction cost
for phase II would be $380,000, excluding equipment for the
shop. The time table for phase II is undecided; however, the
public works department would hope that the City Council begin
looking at phase I1 within the next five years.
Phase III would consist of remodeling or replacement of the
old NSP building for new offices, a reception area for a
secretary, handicap accessible restrooms and showers for men
and women, and a now maintenance area for the water/sewer
collection department. No time table for phase III has been
set or suggested; but it is safe to say that the proposed plan
before you for phase III will probably be modified
significantly by the time phase III is built. The estimated
cost for phase III, assuming demolition of the old NSP
building rathor than its remodeling, is $380,000. Again,
these are construction costs only.
A detailed report has been propared by TKDA and Is enclosed
for your rev Sow. Further discussion here will concern itsolf
with phase I construction, a 15,000 sq ft storage building.
The base building has no frills whatsoever and consists matinly
of open storage with a small bathroom and a sign shop. A
skylight in the roof is used to provide as much natural
lighting as possible for the building and cut down on the cost
of lighting. Because of future construction, there are no
windows on the south wall of phase I. A central floor drain
trough system is used to collect vehicle runoff, and the
hosting system for the building will be a gas-fired Coryvac
heating sys tom similar to that in the now fire hall.
A concrete push wall is planned on the north wall for future
sand/salt storage. Three types of construction are presented
in tho roporti masonry construction, which is concrete block;
stand-up coracrote panels such as the Maus building and the
23
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
strip mall along Cedar Street; and finally, a pre-engineered
steel structure such as the Clow stamping building or Larson
Manufacturing building in the industrial park.
Based upon estimates TKDA obtained from George w. Olson
Construction of Stillwater, Minnesota, our two best value -for -
the -dollar buildings are going to be either masonary or stand-
up pre -cast wall panels. The masonry building with an
exterior styrofoam insulation and stucco -like finish is
estimated to cost $566,300 (construction cost only), while the
stand-up panel building would be $551,400. The lowest cost
alternate would be to remove the sign shop and bathroom and
build the stand-up panel building for $531,400. Preliminary
estimates indicate that a concrete block building without the
exterior insulation package could be built for the same cost
of $531,400.
The building committee has discussed the pre -cast stand-up
panel building versus the masonry or block building in great
detail. It is possible that the block building could be more
economically built in this area and allows the possibility of
local block layers to be used in construction. We would
probably receive a greater number of bids utilizing the block
construction. If the block building with the exterior
insulation package is selected, it is possible that
competitive bidding could yield the same cost for a masonry
building as a stand-up panel building. This, however, could
only be determined by actually bidding both buildings.
The cost to actually design two sots of buildings for
alternate bids could be $4,000 to $5,000 higher than designing
a single building because of the duplication of efforts needed
in preparing two sets of drawings, so it may be best to decide
on a specific building typo. One suggestion is that we design
a masonry or block building with the exterior insulation
oackaoe as an alternate. The exterior insulation package need
not be installed immediately with the building. It could be
installed at a later date with phase II or anytime in between
should It be determined that the building is not efficient to
heat without it. This still also remains a question, as the
building will not normally be kept at 70 degrees since it is
primarily a storage facility. Assuming a worst case scenorio
that we cannot build a building for loss than $531,400, the
following project cost sconorio is offered.
15,000 sq ft building construction
masonry block (without exterior
Insulation package) or stand-up wall
panels both excluding sign shop and
bathroom $531,400

SUBTOTAL BUILDING CONSTRUCTION $547,342
3. 10% design 6 construction admin.
6 architect inspection fees $ 54,734

8. Soils investigation work by
Braun Intertec $ 11900
9. Public works facilities report by TRDA $ 3,000
TOTAL ESTIMATED PROJECT COST $645,476
The above figures are assuming the worst case scenario. It is
very possible that the bids will come in much better than
those indicated here. Also, it is possible that some
innovative design work may lessen the cost of the building.
Furthermore, the 10% fee Indicated for design, construction,
administration, and inspection is also open for negotiation.
Lastly, it is very possible the soil correction will not be as
extensive as noted, and we could save some money in that area
also. We already have a contractor interested in buying the
old polo shed for $1.00. He would totally disassemble it
within one to two weeks and re -use some of the materials.
Consequently, demolition of this building would not be costly.
Overall, we would expect the actual project cost to be
somewhat lees than that indicated above.
One hundred percent (10 01) of the funding for the proposed
project Is available in the liquor store fund. The available
balance through October of this yoar would be $670,000. This
already accounts for any proposed transfers should all
projects and capital outlay items be purchased as proposed
this year, and the expenditure of the entire EDA revolving
loan fund. Rick has enclosed a separate shoot on the
financial statue of the liquor fund and the City itself.
25
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative would be to accept the study and
authorize City staff to distribute RFP's for the design
of phase I and allow three architectural/engineering
firms to present their proposals at a special Council
meeting on March 16, 1992. The RFP would request a
design centered around a concrete block building with an
alternate for an exterior insulation packaqe. This would
result in the lowest architectural design fee and
hopefully the lowest building construction cost.
2. The second alternative would be to allow staff to prepare
and distribute a request for proposals for the design of
phase I utilizing two designs, one for a block masonry
building with an exterior insulation package and another
for a stand-up concrete wall panel. This alternate would
result in a higher architectural design fee and may or
may not result in a lower cost option for the City. It
is, again, anticipated that the proposals would be
returned at a special City Council meeting vn March 16.
3. The third alternative would be to negotiate a design fee
at the meeting with TKDA utilizing either the masonry
block building design and/or the stand-up concrete panel
design and authorize TKDA to begin the design. The
rationale for this option is that TKDA has invested
thousands of dollars in the original study for which they
will not recover, and they may be amenable to an
attractive design fee, and the City cculd ultimately save
at least three weeks of precious construction season time
by going ahead with the design immediately.
4. The fourth alternative would be to go back to the drawing
board per se and make changes to lower the cost of the
proposed phase I project. The building committee has
looked extensively into phase I of the project and has
cut virtually every amenity from the building that could
be cut without losing the overall size concept and the
natural lighting concept. The width of the building
could not be reduced and maintain the efficiency of the
building. Consequently, only the length of the building
could be changed to save costs. It is doubtful whether
a two-soction approach to phase I would be in the boat
interest of the City duo to the increase of the cost of
the two parte versus a single part phase I.
5. The fifth alternative would be not to expand the public
works facilities at this time.
C
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the City Administrator, Public
Works Director, and Street and Park Superintendent that the
City Council consider taking the next step toward completion
of phase I of the public works complex by approving
alternative 11. Although not recommended, staff would not
have a problem if the Council selected alternative 03, as TRDA
is very capable, and the Council should be able to obtain a
competitive fee upon open negotiation. This would definitely
save time and is certainly within the scope of the Council's
authority.
After completion of the design and receiving bids, the true
cost of the project can be determined. It is staff's opinion
that should the phase I project cost be at or below the figure
as previously noted, the City can fund the project from
existing liquor store revenue without risk to the financial
stability of the City. Although the two Council members
represented on the building committee are in support of the
project, they reserve their recommendations until open
discussion of the proposed project takes place at Monday
evening's meeting.

Ae of December 31, the liquor store has surplus funds of $571,700.
Based on prior history, it is assumed that by October 1 of 1992,
the liquor store should generate an additional $100,000 in
earnings, which, if earmarked for maintenance building
construction, would make available from the liquor fund the
$670,000.
While the general fund has over $1 million in cash and investments
on hand at the end of the year, a majority of these funds are
needed to continue our operations for the first six months of each
year until we again receive tax settlements. While the funds are
technically designated for working capital purposes, these funds
could be utilized on a short-term basis for any unforeseen
expenditures that may arise.
The fund with the largest surplus balance that would be available
for additional expenditures is the capital outlay fund with a
$203,000 balance. These funds have been accumulated over the past
number of years and would be available, for example, to fund the
softball lighting project In excess of the $80,000 budgeted amount
for 1992. As you will note, other funds such as the tree fund and
sewer and water access (hookup funds) do provide some surplus
monies that could be utilized if necessary for emergencies or
unbudgeted expenditures.
The attached schedule of surplus funds does not cover all of the
City's available resources, but I purposely excluded construction
�i funds and debt service funds, which have an additional $1.5 million
in cash, since those funds aro already dedicated for debt
retirement purposes and/or construction projects in progress.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
12. Consideration of a resolution reauesting 25% of the 1992 state
aid allocation for maintenance. (J.S.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
When cities are submitting their needs for annual funding from
the state aid system, they are required to assign a certain
portion of their needs to maintenance. If the City, s annual
statement of needs does not specify an amount to be used for
maintenance, the state sets the maintenance amount at 5% of
the total allocation. The maximum allocation for maintenance
that a city can request is 25%, or in our case $40,832 for
1992. Once the allocation is made, the City does not have to
verify to the state of Minnesota where the money was spent;
and typically, most cities use it for street maintenance
throughout the cities.
Since we were not totally familiar with the state aid
allocation system and were caught up in proving our population
base to the state, we missed the December 15 deadline. The
state of Minnesota, however, will allow us to amend our
request in the form of a Council resolution. The resolution
is enclosed for the Council's roview.
Should the City be granted the total $40,832 state aid
allocation for maintenance, we would use portions of tho funds
to pay for crack sealing and sealcoating of our state aid
stroets this year, as well as repairs to Intersections such as
7th Street East and Cedar Street, as well as look at the
possibility of using some of the funds for raising the railway
crossing at Walnut Street. It is also possible to use the
monies off the state aid system as was stated earlier or even
to buy equipment that would be directly used in street
maintenonce.
Should the City not use the entire $40,832 for maintenance,
the City would have the option to use the remainder in
conjunction with the remaining portion of state aid funds for
construction. But without dedicating the 25% max originally,
the City is somewhat limited in its use of those funds.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
The first alternative would be to pass the enclosed
resolution asking for an amendment of the state aid
allocation for maintonance funds up to the maximum amount
of 251.
The second alternative would be to ask for an amondmont
lose than the maximum amount of 251.
28
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
The third alternative would be not to amend the
maintenance allocation but leave it at the existing
$5,000 figure.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the City Administrator and Public
Works Director that the City Council pass the enclosed
resolution amending the maintenance amount to the maximum
allowed of 25%.

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Monticello, as a condition
of this increase, pass a resolution which indemnifies, saves, and
holds harmless the State of Minnesota from any action arising out
of or by reason of the granting of this increase;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: The City Council of the City of
Monticello requests the Commissioner of Transportation to allocate
25% of the total annual State Aid allocation for Monticello as the
maintenance allocation for the City of Monticello; and
Be it further resolved by the City Council of the City of
Monticello to accept the transfer of $35,702 from the City's State
Aid Construction Account to the 1992 Maintenance Allotment for the
City of Monticello; and
Be it further resolved by the City Council of the City of
Monticello that the City indemnifies, savos, and holds harmless the

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
13• Consideration of the purchase of computer hardware and
software for the administration of state aid funds and
Proiects. (J.S.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
With the City of Monticello's receiving direct state aid comes
the responsibility to account for all state and federal funds
received on state aid projects. The requirements as to the
forms to be followed on state aid projects are quite specific.
To make it much easier for new cities to adapt to the state
system, the state aid office pays up to 601 of the hardware
and software .costs if their recommended system is purchased.
Purchasing a system based upon their recommendation through
state contracts allows the state aid system to be uniform, and
changes made in the future by the state are done more easily
on a uniform system, as well as updates of the software. The
state also provides training seminars on the use of the state
aid system.
The system as required by the state of Minnesota consists of
an ISM PS -2 Model 80 PC with a 12 -inch monitor, a wide -
carriage printer, a modem for communicating with the state
computer, and various computer software programs geared to run
�,✓ the state and local systems. The entire package as
recommended by the State Aid Office and City staff comes to
$6,275. The City's share would be $2,510. Our share would
come indirectly from state aid maintenance funds, as the
monies budgeted for maintenance in the public works department
would not have to be spent if state aid funds are used for
that maintenance.
I believe the state realizes that the computer system can be
used for other purposes. Consequently, they do not fund 1008
of the hardware and software. Such is the case with the
public works department. The hardwAre provided by the state
has an excellent video graphics array, whereas the old Wang
PC's that the public works department uses do not have
graphics ability. With the software programs included in the
package, we will have the capability of adding graphics to our
reports as needed. In addition, upgrades to our fuel racord
system could be easily adaptod to the now PS -2 computer and
will actually save us money from not having to purchase a
dedicated computer and printer in the future for that purpose.
30
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative is to enter into an agreement with
the Minnesota Department of Transportation, Office of
State Aid, to purchase computer hardware and software at
a cost to the City of $2,510.
2. The second olternative is not to purchase the computer
hardware and software but make attempts to keep track of
the necessary information long hand and then have the
secretarial staff at City Hall type the final documents.
This appears to be a very cumbersome system to work with.
3. The third alternative would be to prepare all of the
information hand written and then pay another firm or the
City Engineer to transpose all of the information onto
the required state forma. This also appears quite
cumbersome and in the long run would be much costlier
than the $2,510 investment.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the City Administrator and Public
Works Director that the City Council authorize purchase of the
computer hardware and software and authorize entering into an
agreement with the Minnesota Department of Transportation as
outlined in alternative O1 at a cost of $2,510.
This proposal has been reviewed by the City's data processing
personnel and found to be consistent with the overall plans,
goals, and future direction of City computer development.
They concur with the recommendation to purchase as outlined in
alternative I1.

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
ts. Consideration of approving a resolution adoptinq the 1992
Economic Development Work Plan and IDC budqet. (O.K.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The City Council is being asked to consider the approval of a
resolution which adopts the 1992 Economic Development Work
Plan and IDC budget. This action is necessary to comply with
the following State requirements for Star City
recertification:
1. Submit a summary of the 1991 major economic
development highlights, accomplishments, and
challenges.
2. Submit a one-year action plan and budget which is
offically approved by the Industrial Development
Committee (Star City Commission) and the City
Council. The one-year action plan will include
goals, strategies, activities, time lines, and
individual assignments.
3. List of individuals serving on Star City Commission
and City organizational chart.
4. Community site visits are staggered to occur once
- every three years (Monticello was visited in 1990
so will not be visited until 1993).
5. All written recertification materials to be
submitted to the Department of Trade and Economic
Development by March 17, 1992.
Secondly, the City of Monticello became a Star City in 1982.
During the past years, a question that is frequently asked is
"What is a Star City?" Allow me to share with you the State's
definition of "What is a Star City?"
• A community that recognizes every community
opportunity.
• A community that unites groups in building a
healthy community.
• A community that values its business and industry.
+ A community that sots realistic goals.
• A community that takes charge of its own future.
• A community that can make things happen.
The Star City program was created to onhanco economic
development skills and capacity at a local level. Communities
participate as individual cities, networks of cities and
towns, or part of a Star County organization. Communities
earn the designation by completing a rigorous, four -component
process that includes organizational dovelcpment, information
gathering and Analysis, strategic planning, and markotinq.
34
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
Third, you will note the enclosed Monticello 1992 Work Plan
includes the continuation of the four -component process. The
preliminary draft of the work plan was developed by an IDC
subcommittee of Shelley Johnson, Don Smith, and myself. The
subcommittee developed the work plan through the results of an
IDC Self -Assessment Survey, the 1992 BRE Survey, and the
assessment of the 1991 Economic Development Activity Report.
All IDC members and staff received the preliminary draft in
December, modifications were made at the Janua vy IDC meeting,
and the 1992 Work Plan was adopted at the February 20, 1992,
IDC meeting.
Finally, it is my intent to distribute the 1992 Economic
Development Work Plan, the 1992 BRE Survey results, and the
1991 Economic Development Activity Report to al l companies who
responded to the BRE survey, city government units, Senator
Adkins, Representative McEachern, and all local taxing
jurisdictions.
Please review the 1991 Activity Report and the 1992 Work Plan
for questions and comments. I welcome comments and will
briefly highlight only a couple of areas.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. To approve the resolution adopting the 1992 Economic
Development Work Plan and IDC budgot as prosonted.
2. To deny approval of the resolution adopting the 1992
Economic Development Work Plan and IDC budget as
presented.
1. To suggest mods fications to the 1992 Economic Development
Work Plan and IDC budget.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Recommendation is for alternative 61 to approve the resolution
adopting the 1992 Economic Development Work Plan and IDC
budget as presented. Reasons for the recommendation aro that
IDC members and City staff, the EDA, and the HRA have made or
have boon given opportunities to suggest other modifications
to the work plan. Also, this allows time to moot the State
deadline of March 17.
D. SUPPORTING DATA:

Development Work Plan and IDC budget; List of tho IDC members

1991 Activity Report
Continued
OBJECTIVE: TO MAINTAIN AND ASSURE THE ASETHETIC VALUE OF THE
INDUSTIRAL PARK AND TO ASSURE THE AVAILABILITY OF
INDUSTRIAL LAND.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS:
To assure control of the industrial park asethetic value,
screening costs were proposed into the planned TIF project
budget for G & G Oil Company.
- The IDC and the HRA have reviewed the Chelsea Land Use and
Circulation Study/Conceptual Plan as prepared by Northwest
Associates. It was the recommendation of both groups that the
northerly 80 acres of the Kline property be considered for
industrial use and governed by the BC Ordinance. A Public
Hearing will be held by the Planning Commission prior to City
Council consideration.
In March, the IDC reviewed a comparative study between nine
communities in the categories of city budget, annual average
unemployment rate, tax rate, occupational median wages per
hour, available industrial acres, and services available
within the industrial areas. The communities were Big Lake,
Buffalo, Elk River, Faribault, Melrose, Monticello, New
Brighton, Owattona, and St. Cloud.
- In March, the IDC reviewed the industrial sites and services
available in Monticello.
It was so determined by City Council, that the city not
become landowners or developers of the Farm Credit Industrial
property.
- The Northwest Associate's Land Use and Circulation Study
addresses a conceptual plan for the Chelsea industrial,
school, and housing areas. This includes the upgrade of
Fallon Avenue; construction of Fallon Avenue Bridge, School
Road and extension to Highway 25, County Road 118 westerly I9e
ramps: and the completion of Dundas Road to Highway 25.
- A five-year Capital Improvements Plan and Budget is currently
being prepared for consideration.
1991 Activity Report
Continued
OBJECTIVE: TO MAINTAIN THE AVAILABILITY OF AN ADEQUATE HOUSING
MIR.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- In April, the IDC reviewed a comparative study with two
communities and three townships on the number of single-family
residential building permits issued between 1980 and 1990.
The two communities were Monticello and Big Lake, and the
townships were Monticello, Big Lake, and Becker.
- The study indicated townships outstripped the urban areas for
number of housing permits issued. Monticello's housing
permits peaked in 1980 and hit a low in 1989. The perception
maybe that Monticello has no attractive lots available and
should emphasize free garbage pick-up, low water/sewer rates,
and other services offered.
- Several housing contractors received Monticello's marketing
materials and with the construction of the new elementary
school and the availability of the Farm Credit property the
southeasterly corner of Monticello is under development.
- Phase I of Briar Oaks, Prestige Builders, is proposed for 28
lots, price range of $80,000 and up. Phase II is proposed for
an additional 60 lots.
- Phase I of Cardinal Hills, Value Plus, Is proposed for 24
lots, price range of approximately $70,000, first time home
buyers. Additional phases includes approximately another 200
lots.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF MONTICELLO,
MINNESOTA, AS FOLLOWS:
1. Supports and commits to the 1992 Economic Development Work
Plan and 1992 Industrial Development Committee Budget.
2. Recognizes that the 1991 Economic Development Activity Report,

Council Agenda - 2/24/92
16. Consideration of a $5,000 Grant from the State of Minnesota„
Department of Natural Resources, under "The National Resource
Development Proqram" for plantinq trees. (J.S.)
REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
City staff has budgeted $5,000 for 1992 for planting trees on
public property such as parks throughout Monticello. The City
of Buffalo has informed us of a grant available through the
Department of Natural Resources to assist communities with
making their tree -planting dollars go farther. The grants are
available to eligible communities for up to 508 of the total
project costs for trees and planting and maintenance up to a
limit of $5,000.
Under this grant system, project allocation would be as
follows:
Purchasing 40 trees 1-1/2"
caliber or bigger at $125 ea. _ $5,000
Planting of 40 trees by
independent contractor at $50 ea. _ $2,000
Tree maintenance by the City
for three years reimbursed through
grant funds.
40 trees X $25/troe/year X 3 years $3,000
Under the above grant program, the City would end up expending
only $2,000 for planting trees this year. we would,
Lheeefore, have a surplus of $3,000, which could be used for
other purposes or could actually be used to expand the tree
planting program.
The areas considered this year for tree planting are the south
perimeter of the now parking lot planned at City Hall, the now
park in Cardinal Hills, possibly School Boulevard, the yard
waste compost facility, the ballfiold complex, the water
reservoir site adjoining the Remmolo property, the well 04
site, and others.
In order to be eligible for the funds, communities must
proclaim an Arbor Day observance. The City has done this in
the past, which isn't a problem. In addition, we must have a
tree department or board and a municipal tree ordinance, of
which we have both. We will be working toward achieving the
standards of the "Tree City U.S.A." program. Our submittal of
a grant application does not assure us of receiving the grant
funds. There Is only $128,142 available in the state for
36
C0
Council Agenda - 2/24/92
community tree planting. A copy of the letter from the
Department of Natural Resources describing the grant is
enclosed for your review.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. The first alternative would be to authorize City staff to
prepare a grant application in the amount of $5,000 to
the Department of Natural Resources.
2. The second alternative would be not to apply for the
gr -ant.
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is t1he recommendation of the Public Works Director that the
Council consider application for the grant as outlined in
alternative U. This would add approximately $3,000 to our
budget amount and could be used for expanding the tree
planting program or other uses.

COUNCIL UPDATE
February 21, 1992
Update on the Establishment of a Wriqht County Economic Development
Plan. (O.K.)
In May of 1991, the City Council approved a $500 contribution/
pledge for the development of a Wright County Economic Development
Plan subject to pledge commitments from all other county
communities. At this time, committed pledges have not been
collected from any of the cities or townships, and the cities of
Ostego, Buffalo, and South Haven have not approved a pledge
commitment. The Wright County Commissioners authorized the hiring
of a consultant firm to develop a county economic development plan
and authorized an in-house study for the establishment of a County
HRA. The Industrial Development Committee (IDC) has concerns about
the development of a county taxing authority, meaning: Would
Monticello receive an equal return for their dollars invested?
As per a telephone conversation with Attorney Ron Batty of Holmes
6 Graven, it is my understanding that if Monticello's HRA was
established as an "active city authority," then a county authority
shall not undertake any project within the boundaries (area of
operation) of any city which has not empowered the authority to
function therein unless a resolution has been adopted by the
governing body of the city and by any authority which has been
established in the city, declaring that there is a need for the
county authority to exercise its powers in the city.
Therefore, if Monticello is not within the area of operation, the
following does not apply: Within the area of operation, any
authority shall constituto a taxing district for the purpose of
levying and collecting special benefit taxes. All of the taxable
property, both real and personal, within that taxing district shall
be deemed to be benefited by projects to the extent of the special
taxes levied. Subject to the consent by resolution of the
govorning body of the city in and for which it was created,
authority may levy each year a tax upon all taxable property within
that taxing district.
A city authority may join with any authority to permit the
authority, on behalf of the city, to plan, undertake, administer,
and carry out a leased existing housing assistance payments
program, pursuant to Section 8 of the U.S. Housing Act. A city may
so join with an authority unless there is an authority in the city
which has boon authorized by resolution under. Section 469.003 to
transact business or exercise powers. This paragraph needs further
resoarch by the local HRA to determine Its current powers.
This is an updato only. No action is necessary by the City
Council. I will present any preliminary drafts of the county plan
or study to tho City Council, HRA, IDC, and Commissioner Pat
Sawatzko.
