City Council Minutes 08-14-1989MINUTES
REGULAR MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL
Monday, August 14, 1989 - 7:00 p.m.
Members Present: Ken Maus, Fran Fair, Warren Smith, Shirley Anderson,
Dan Blonigen
1. Call to order.
2. Approval of minutes.
Warren Smith requested that item 6 be amended by adding the following
remarks to item 6: "Smith saw no reason to shop around for consultants,
as the City has already conducted a selection process which resulted in
Henning & Associates being selected for development of the City logo.
Smith saw no reason to repeat the selection effort."
Dan Blonigen requested that sentence 4 paragraph 2 on item #1 be amended
to state, "It was Blonigen's view that the pension fund should be at a
level to where the fire department could raise sufficient pension funding
on its own."
There being no further amendments to the minutes, motion was made by
Warren Smith and seconded by Fran Fair to approve the meeting minutes as
amended. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Citizens coments/petitions, requests, and complaints.
Council addressed a storm water drainage problem associated with
development of a home at the northeast corner of the intersection of
Willow and River Street (Block 3, Lot 10, River Terrace Addition).
According to Public Works Director Simola, drainage problems in the area
will be increased if the lot is developed as proposed. Currently, the
undeveloped lot is the collection point for an area larger than the size
of one-half block. If the property is elevated by placing fill and a
home on the site, the water displaced by the development will spill into
other areas thus creating further problems and adverse conditions for
other homeowners in the area. Simola reported that a building permit has
been approved but not issued for the site and some excavation has
occurred. However, staff has recognized the problem prior to building
construction activity. He went on to note that the builder is willing to
sell the property to the City at his cost plus the cost of excavation to
this point. The builder also asks for first right of refusal in the
event the City develops a storm water drainage system that renders the
lot buildable in the future. Simola recoimnended that the City purchase
the property for the sum of $23,500, as this cost is minimal compared to
the cost of developing a temporary storm water system necessary to solve
the problem. It was also noted that the roads in the area may likely be
upgraded to meet current City standards in the future and at that time
the necessary storm drainage systems could be installed, thereby
rendering the lot buildable. Until that time occurs, the City can hold
the lot and utilize it for drainage purposes.

Council Minutes - 8/14/89
Ken Maus noted that the price is fair and that he supports buying the
property.
Warren Smith asked why the drainage problem was not identified prior to
excavation of the property.
Gary Anderson noted a drainage concern upon building permit application
and was in the process of obtaining the proper survey documents as well
as reviewing his concerns with other staff. Since the extent of the
drainage problem was not known and was thought to be manageable by site
grading, Mr. Lanners was allowed to excavate prior to the permit being
issued.
After discussion, motion was made by Fran Fair and seconded by Warren
Smith to purchase Lot 10, Block 3, River Terrace Addition, from Quintin
Lanners for the sum of $23,500 and provide Quintin Lanners first right of
refusal at such time that the City elects to sell the lot once the
drainage problem has been resolved. Motion carried unanimously.
4. Consideration of variance request. Applicant, Fair's Garden Center.
Prior to addressing variance related issues, Council defined the use
associated with Fair's landscaping. Dan Blonigen expressed the concern
that the proposed expansion of the facility represented a change in the
use or development of a non -conforming use rather than an expansion of a
sales and storage area which is allowed as a conditional use in the B-4
zone. Staff concurred that it is not quite clear if the proposed
expansion represents development that is not allowed in the district, or
the expansion simply represents development of an open sales and storage
area which is allowed in the B-4 zone. Staff noted that Council has the
authority to review the proposed action and then interpret the intent of
the Zoning Ordinance as it applies to this situation. Gary Anderson
noted that open/outdoor storage associated with garden centers and
landscaping service center activities are typically interwoven and could
be considered as a single use for the property. Warren Smith suggested
that we might be splitting hairs in considering the service portion of
the business as a separate use. Shirley Anderson did not offer an
opinion on the question. However, she did express her concern regarding
potential for development of an unwanted precedent.
Motion was made by Dan Blonigen and seconded by Shirley Anderson to table
further consideration of this issue pending opinion from the City
Attorney. Voting in favor: Dan Blonigen, Shirley Anderson. Opposed:
Fran Fair, Ken Maus, Warren Smith. Motion fails 3-2.
Motion was made by Warren Smith and seconded by Ken Maus to interpret the
proposed expansion as an allowable conditional use under 14-4: [A] and
[B] of the Monticello Zoning Ordinance which, as a conditional use,
allows open or outdoor storage service, sale, and rental as a principal
and accessory use. Voting in favor of the motion: Warren Smith, Ken
Maus, Fran Fair. Opposed: Shirley Anderson, Dan Blonigen. Motion
carried.

Motion fails.
Motion made by Warren Smith and seconded by Shirley Anderson to accept
Planning Coimnission recoimnendation regarding variance to hard surfacing
requirement in the area in front of the rock bins with one stipulation:
Said area may not be used as a driveway or through area for customer
traffic. Voting in favor: Warren Smith, Ken Maus, Shirley Anderson.
Opposed: Dan Blonigen. Abstaining: Fran Fair. Motion carries.
Motion was made by Warren Smith and seconded by Shirley Anderson to allow
development of parking area without installation of curb perpendicular to
stalls located along Broadway. Eliminating the curb requirement in this
area allows for future expansion of the parking area. Voting in favor:
Ken Maus, Shirley Anderson, Warren Smith. Opposed: Dan Blonigen.
Abstaining: Fran Fair. Motion carries.
Motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Warren Smith to
require hard surface paving of private drive area and rear yard storage
area by September 1, 1990. Voting in favor: Ken Maus, Warren Smith,
Shirley Anderson. Opposed: Dan Blonigen. Abstaining: Fran Fair.
Motion carries.
Discussion returned to the method of rock storage bin screening. Warren
Smith noted that he would rather resolve the issue now rather than let it
linger to a subsequent meeting.
Motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Warren Sinith to
require installation of a cedar fence to a height 6" higher than the
average height of the front wall of the rock storage bins. Fence shall
be installed along three sides of the storage bins. Motion carried
unanimously.

Council Minutes - 8/14/89
Voting in favor: Ken Maus, Warren Smith, Shirley Anderson. Opposed:
Dan Blonigen. Abstaining: Fran Fair. Motion carried.
6. Consideration of simple subdivision request to allow a subdivision of a
B-3 (highway business) lot. Applicant, John Johnson.
Motion was made by Fran Fair, seconded by Shirley Anderson, to approve
the simple subdivision request subject to the following conditions:

of the Planning Comnission meeting date of August 1, 1989.
Motion carried unanimously.
7. A variance request to allow less than minimum 5 -foot green area
separation from property line to parking lot curb. Applicant, Monticello
Auto Body.
Gary Anderson reviewed the proposed variance and indicated that the
variance request is not consistent with the conditions associated with
the conditional use permit previously granted the applicant. Assistant
Administrator O'Neill noted that the applicant has not demonstrated a
hardship or unique circumstance which justifies granting the variance.
Street Superintendent, Roger Mack, recomnended against granting the
variance, as the parking lot would then extend into an area that would
otherwise be used for snow storage by both the City and by the property
owner. It was Mack's recoimnendation that the ordinance be upheld in this
instance so as to reserve the proper space for snow storage.
After discussion, motion was made by Fran Fair, seconded by Shirley
Anderson, to appeal the decision of the Planning Comnission and deny the
variance as requested. Motion carried unanimously.
8. Consideration of amendment to the zoning ordinance which would allow as a
conditional use a bed and breakfast operation in the PZM zone.
Applicant, Merrill Busch.
Gary Anderson reported that Merrill Busch has applied for a zoning
ordinance amendment which would allow development of a bed and breakfast
facility in the PZM zone. Anderson reviewed the recoimnendation of the
Planning Comnission and outlined those conditions associated with
operation of a bed and breakfast in a PZM zone. Administrator Rick
Wolfsteller informed Council that the bed and breakfast currently is not
utilizing city sewer and water. He went on to note that the Council
could require that the bed and breakfast facility be hooked up to city
Council Minutes - 8/14/89
sewer at this point, or the bed and breakfast could be required to hook
up within three years of the time that the services have been available
to the facility. Wolfsteller informed Council that under either
circumstance, the facility will be connected to city services within
1-1/2 years.
It was the general consensus of the Council not to require that the bed
and breakfast facility be required to utilize city services as part of
the conditional use permit, as the services will be required by ordinance
within 1-1/2 years. During discussion, Council voiced support for the
establishment of the bed and breakfast in the Rand Mansion and expressed
best wishes to Mr. Busch and his efforts to preserve and maintain the
Rand Mansion.
After discussion, motion was inade by Fran Fair, seconded by Warren Smith,
to amend the City of Monticello Zoning Ordinance by adding bed and
breakfast facilities as a conditional use in the PZM zone provided that;
1. Bed and breakfast operations shall be limited to residential
structures existing prior to the date of this ordinance.
2. When abutting R-1, R-2, R-3, or PZR districts, a buffer area with
screening and landscaping shall be provided in compliance with
Chapter 3, Section 2 [G], of the Monticello Zoning Ordinance.
3. Adequate off-street parking and an access shall be provided in the
form of one parking space per rental unit, plus one space for each
ten rental units, and one space for each employee on each shift.
4. Food served on the premises may be served only to overnight guests of
the bed and breakfast.
5. The owner, operator, or manager of the bed and breakfast shall reside
on the premises.
6. Activities shall be limited to those customary to the operation of a
bed and breakfast facility. Comercial use of the property for other
activities not normally associated with the operation of a bed and
breakfast such as wedding receptions, parties, etc., are not allowed
under this conditional use permit.
7. Material used for the parking area shall consist of dust and erosion
resistent materials that will not cling to vehicle tires and track
onto public streets. The materials used shall also be capable of
supporting vehicular traffic.
8. Operation of the bed and breakfast facility shall comply with all
state regulations governing such facilities.
Motion carried unanimously. SEE ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 180.
9. Consideration of a conditional use permit which would allow operation of
a bed and breakfast facility in the PZM zone. Applicant, Merrill Busch.
After discussion, motion was made
Anderson, to grant a conditional
operation of a bed and breakfast

10. Consideration of City Assessor position alternatives for year 1990.
City Adininistrator, Rick Wolfsteller, outlined issues associated with
continuance of City policy of providing assessing services at the City
level. Wolfsteller noted that the City may have a problem in keeping our
own assessor, as recent state regulations require that the City of
Monticello have an accredited assessor. At this point in time, Gary
Anderson is a certified appraiser but has not yet obtained enough
training nor completed seminars that would allow him to become an
accredited appraiser. Furthermore, it does not appear that there is
enough time for Anderson to complete the necessary course work and
testing to obtain the proper certification. Wolfsteller then reviewed
the different methods that might be utilized in fulfilling the assessing
process. Wolfsteller noted that the City can attempt to hire a certified
assessor to work with Mr. Anderson and keep the function on a local
level, or the City has the option of contracting for services with the
County.
Dan Blonigen noted that a significant amount of information regarding
building construction, etc., comes out of City Hall and that he is
leaning toward keeping the assessing function local. Ken Maus asked Doug
Gruber, County Assessor, what he saw as potential problems associated
with bringing the assessing function to the County. Gruber noted that
the Council has more control if the function is kept local. People that
live and work in the city might provide slightly better accountability.
At the same time, Gruber noted that the County has a good handle on
what's going on in Monticello and that a particular person would be
assigned to the City of Monticello and would, therefore, gain an
understanding of the coimnunity, as he would be consistently working in
the coimnunity. Gruber went on to note that the County would be willing
to provide assessing services to the City and that he would like to set
it up for a four year contract. Shirley Anderson asked if Gary can do
part of the assessing work with someone else in the City providing the
credentials. Doug Gruber noted that, yes, Gary can work under someone
else in the coimnunity if that person is accredited.
There being no further discussion, motion was made by Shirley Anderson to
hire a certified assessor to work with the City on a part-time basis with
the intention of utilizing the County in the event that a certified
assessor cannot be found at a reasonable price. Motion was seconded by
Fran Fair and carried unanimously. Doug Gruber requested that the
decision be made by the first of October, 1989.
11. Consideration of additional extension to probationary period/residency
requirement - Tony Strande.
Administrator Wolfsteller reported that Tony Strande has been unable to
sell his home in Palmer -and, therefore, unable to move to the coimnunity
within the extended probationary period. Wolfsteller recoimnended that
the City extend the probationary period of Tony Strande for another six
months or until he has relocated to the Monticello area and end the
probationary period at the time that he relocates. Wolfsteller went on
7
Council Minutes - 8/14/89
to note that Tony is doing an excellent job and that he would by no means
recomend at this time that Tony Strande be dismissed froin his position
for not now meeting the residency requirement outlined in his employment
agreement.
After discussion, motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Fran
Fair, to extend Tony Strande's probationary period for another six months
or until he has relocated to the Monticello area and end the probationary
period at the time that he relocates. Motion carried unanimously.
12. Consideration of purchasing safety equipment for sanitary sewer
collection maintenance department.
Motion was made by Dan Blonigen, seconded by Shirley Anderson, to
authorize purchase of a Neotronics gas meter from Process Systems
Corporation of Minneapolis for a cost of $1,722. Motion carried
unanimously.
13. Consideration of purchasing 16 -channel, real voice alarm dialer for the
water reservoir and sanitary sewer collection system.
John Simola reported that with the pump house #3 project, the City and
its engineer specified a 16 -channel real voice alarm dialer for
installation at the water reservoir in the industrial park. The dialer
is designed to handle and integrate all of the alarms for the various
wells, booster pumps, water reservoirs, and chlorine leak detectors as
well as handling the lift station alarms which were relocated from the
waste water treatment plant. The contractor, Richinar Construction, and
Automatic Systems Company never delivered the dialer as specified. We
recently learned that the contractor was not going to supply the dialer
alarm system we specified, as it was unavailable at the time of the bid.
As a temporary solution, the City accepted a 4 -channel real voice alarm
dialer so that we could operate the system. It is our intention to
transfer this 4 -channel dialer to the waste water treatment plant, as
their 2 -channel dialer has failed numerous times and is currently in for
repair. Simola went on to note that he obtained two quotes for the
16 -channel real voice alarm dialer, one from Automatic Systems in the
amount of $5,130, and the second quote from Tri-State Pump Control in the
amount of $2,850. Simola recomended that the City Council authorize
purchase of a 16 -channel dialer from Tri-State Pump Control as outlined
in alternative #1 in the amount of $2,850.
After discussion, motion was made by Warren Smith, seconded by Fran Fair,
to authorize purchase of a 16 -channel dialer from Tri-State Pump Control
as outlined in alternative #1 in the amount of $2,850.
Council Minutes - 8/14/89
14. Consideration of acceptance of Meadow Lane in Meadow Oak 4th Addition.
Public Works Director Siinola reported that the project has been completed
in general compliance with the requirements of the plans and
specifications, and he recoimnended that the City accept the dedication of
Meadow Lane.
Motion was made by Fran Fair, seconded by Shirley Anderson, to accept
Meadow Lane in the Meadow Oak 4th Addition and take over perpetual
maintenance of the roadway. Motion carried unanimously.
15. Consideration of changing part-time deputy registrar position to
full-time status.
City Administrator Wolfsteller reviewed the circumstances leading toward
the request for establishment of a full-time deputy registrar position.
Wolfsteller noted that there is no question that the deputy registrar
activities require the equivalent of 1 to 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 full-time
personnel; and that at such time that Diane comes back from maternity
leave, the new employee can devote approximately 1/2 of her time to
deputy registrar activities with the remaining time available for other
clerical duties within City Hall. Wolfsteller went on to remind Council
that when Pat was hired as a permanent part-time employee, it was his
suggestion to start her off on a part-time basis to allow us
flexibility. But she actually replaced a full-time employee. In
Wolfsteller's opinion, even the addition of Pat as a full-time employee
will not eliminate all of our staffing problems, and that there still may
be a shortage of personnel for specific duties in the future. Finally,
Wolfsteller reported that based on comparable worth, a full-time clerical
position such as Pat's would indicate a salary of $8.95 per hour,
equivalent to what we were paying previously. Pat is currently at $7.50
per hour, and he suggested that this be increased to a minimum of $8.25
per hour imnediately, with a final increase to $8.95 after completion of
a six-month probationary period normally associated with full-time
employees. In his recoimnendation, Wolfsteller noted that Pat Kovich has
done an excellent job as far as the special area of deputy registrar
activities are concerned. He also indicated that Patricia's skills in
dealing with the public are exceptional. Shirley Anderson asked if the
City might do better financially with two part-time employees rather than
one full-time. Ken Maus noted that in most cases, utilizing part-time
employees is more advantageous. Shirley Anderson also asked if the
deputy registrar function pays for itself. Rick Wolfsteller noted that
the funds generated by the deputy registrar activity will pay for the
proposed staffing level and that utilization of two employees at the
deputy registrar desk will allow other city staff that at times must
support the deputy registrar function to concentrate on city related
duties. Warren Smith noted that we should not give short shrift to city
functions by understaffing the deputy registrar position.
After discussion, motion was made by Fran Fair and seconded by Shirley
Anderson to establish the part-time deputy registrar position to
full-time status. Motion carried unanimously.

Council Minutes - 8/14/89
Motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Dan Blonigen to
appoint Patricia Kovich to the position of deputy registrar clerk with a
starting salary of $8.25 per hour. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of agreement with Yonak Landfill for solid waste disposal.
John Simola noted that with our new contract with Corrow Sanitation, the
City will be paying 100 percent of the landfill for solid waste
processing facility fees. Because of this, Corrow Sanitation is
restricted from picking up any comercial or industrial garbage on the
Monday and Thursday pickup days for Monticello. At this time, it seems
most appropriate to pay the landfill or processing facility directly on a
monthly basis rather than pay Corrow to pay the landfill. He went on to
note that because of the new reporting capabilities, the City will be
able to monitor that solid waste which comes from the City of Monticello
which, therefore, provides us with the capabilities of establishing an
enforceable contract. Simola noted that the agreement with Yonak will
set out fees, reporting parameters, and insurance requirements. The fees
will be guaranteed for a period of six months, not including taxes or
surcharges imposed by state, county, or local ordinances.
After discussion, motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Dan
Blonigen, to authorize City staff to prepare an agreement with Yonak
Landfill for the deposition of solid waste from the City of Monticello.
Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of upgrading well #1.
John Simola reported that City Council had authorized OSM to make the
necessary calculations and recomendat ions for a replacement pump for
well #1 which would allow the well to be used in conjunction with the new
water reservoir. Based upon the design parameters prepared by OSM, a
quote has been received from E.H. Renner & Sons of Elk River to install
the necessary equipment for the sum of $5,884. Simola recoimnended that
the City authorize replacement of the pump for well #1 from E.H. Renner &
Sons for a cost of $5,884, as this represented the only practical
alternative for use of well #1 in conjunction with the new water
reservoir. Ken Maus asked how old the pump is that is being replaced.
John noted that the pump was installed in 1964.
Motion was made by Shirley Anderson, seconded by Dan Blonigen, to
authorize replacement of the pump for well #1 from E.H. Renner & Sons for
a cost of $5,884. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of change order #1 for Project 88-05 - 800,000 gallon
standpipe.
After discussion, motion was made by Warren Smith, seconded by Shirley
Anderson, to approve change order #1 for a credit of $4,328 and to
authorize staff to advertise locally for bids to complete the grading,
seeding, and landscaping at the tank site. Motion carried unanimously.
