provided in the agenda. He explained that a total marketing budget for the EDA was set
aside in the amount of $21,750. He explained that Industry of the Year had a budget of
$1,100 and also stated that possibility of a developer/builder breakfast which was
budgeted for $1,200. The IEDC asked what the "market matching" line item was. Thares

trade shows and other representations.
5. Table Topic — Downtown Fa�ade Improvement Grant Pro�ram
Jim Thares explained that the EDA authorized a Downtown Fa�ade Improvement Grant
for Block 52 in the amount of $200,000. He explained that 10 properties were eligible for
the program and 7 property owners indicated interest. The Cuningham Group, who
Industrial and Economic Development Committee Minutes — Febriiary 5, 2019 Page 1 � 3
completed the Small Area Study, was hired to complete renderings of each of the seven
interested property owners' buildings. Thares indicated that contractors could likely
begin re-construction in May or June. The IEDC asked if there were any "strings"
attached that the property owners would have to abide to qualify for the grant. Thares
noted that the funds are a pure grant with no strings attached nor any required payback.
The only caveat is that the EDA must approve the fa�ade improvement plans for a grant
to be provided.
Thares also indicated that almost $9 million dollars of investments in downtown have
either recently been completed or are expected in 2019. He referenced a list of projects
included in the IEDC packet. The IEDC discussed the Walnut Street Corridor
Improvements which included better pedestrian and bicycle connections including bump
outs and curb readjustments and improved landscaping. Staff would email out a copy of
the architects plans for the corridor.

provided copies of the updated IEDC action statements. Thares also indicated that

Improvement grant program.

on February 12, 2019. The Coalition of Utility Cities would be providing

Industrial and Economic Development Committee Minutes — Febri�ar�� 5, 2019 Page 2 � 3
Comprehensive Plan Update - Staff would be sending out a request for proposal
to update the City of Monticello's Comprehensive Plan. The need for a new

in and around Monticello. Staff would like this planning process to rely heavily
on citizen engagement and involvement.
Thares added that per the IEDC action statements, staff are working on securing
Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) visits with six to seven local businesses
in Monticello. The IEDC would be asked to participate in the visits at a future
date in spring early summer of 2019.

5. Consideration of Ordinance and IEDC Or�anizational Membership Guidelines
Amendments allowing High School Seniors to be appointed to IEDC (JT)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Previous discussion regarding membership, in 2018, it was suggested that involving high
school seniors in the IEDC would bring value to the community and the IEDC. It would
also naturally provide valuable experience to young adults regarding local governance as
well as the issues and activities related to local economic development efforts. To
support the inclusion of high school seniors on the IEDC, it may be beneficial to spell out
their membership and voting status by considering amendments to the Ordinance and the
Organizational and Membership Guidelines.
The intent of the proposed amendments is to clarify the process of appointing high school
seniors on the IEDC as a recommendation of the High School Principal and thereafter
that they would need to be further recommended for approval by the IEDC and approved
by the City Council, similar to all other members. It is further proposed that the high
school senior members would be voting members as well. At this time, the IEDC has no
statutory authority, so it is not likely that there would be any problematic procedural
issues by including them as voting members.
Al. Staff Impact: Minimal; Report preparation time.
A2. Budget Impact: None
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Motion to approve proposed amendment language to the Ordinance governing the
IEDC and also the IEDC Organizational and Membership Guidelines allowing the
appointment of up to two high school seniors as IEDC voting members.
2. Motion to deny a proposed amendment to the Ordinance governing the IEDC and
also the IEDC Organizational and Membership Guidelines allowing the
appointment of up to two (2) high school seniors as IEDC voting members.
Motion to table consideration of a proposed amendment to the Ordinance
governing the IEDC and also the IEDC Organizational and Membership
Guidelines allowing the appointment of up to two (2) high school seniors as IEDC
voting members for further research and/or discussion
C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff will support the IEDC in its decision regarding the proposed amendments to
include high school seniors on the IEDC as voting members. There are merits to
involving high school students on the committee from the standpoint of inclusion of all
IEDC Agenda: 03/OS/19
aspects of the community as well as adding a voice and perspective of a group that may
have a different, emerging view on economic development issues, trends and strategies.

6. Consideration of Establishin� a Business Retention & Expansion Task Force (JaT,
JT)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
As a part of the 2019 IEDC Action Statement Worksheet, it notes the importance of
completing Business Retention & Expansion (BR&E) visits (Work Action item #1 under
"Retaining Jobs" Objective). BR&E visits help strengthen relationships, understand
pressures, and help to find solutions to business needs. The IEDC has been tasked with
leading the BR&E program in Monticello and a schedule has been provided below:
1) Staff contact up to ten local industries in Monticello to see if there is interest in
participating in the program.
2) The IEDC members follow up with the businesses that indicate an interest and
sets an on-site meeting with the industries.
3) Two IEDC members and city staff participate in the on-site visit. Staff will
prepare needed materials for the site visit including a the survey instrument.
4) The IEDC and staff will evaluate the answers to the survey questions and follow
up as needed with potential solutions.
Staff are asking for IEDC members to participate in the site visits. It is recommended that
at least two members are in attendance per site visit. Staff anticipate between 5-7 visits.
Al. Staff Impact: Minimal; Report preparation time and actual visit time commitments are
included in the j ob description of staff involved in the BR&E efforts.
A2. Budget Impact: None; IEDC Members do not receive a stipend at this time.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
L Motion to appoint , , and to
the IEDC BR&E Taskforce (task force could involve numerous members for
example, if 10 members desire to participate in visits, this could result in coverage
for 5 BR&E visits. If fewer members are able to commit time for the visits, they
may have to participate in two (2) or more BR&E visits).
2. Motion to table for further discussion.

CITY OF MONTICELLO
WRIGHT COUNTY, MINNESOTA
RESOLUTION NO. 2019-18
A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS OF
TH 25 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENTS CONNECTING I-94 TO US 10
WHEREAS, the City of Monticello is a founding partner in the Highway 25 Coalition, whose
mission is to develop a unified effort among local and state interests for the purposes of joint
planning and funding for necessary regional transportation improvements to improve the
functionality, capacity and safety of TH 25 between I-94 and US 10; and
WHEREAS, the Highway 25 Coalition has embarked upon a transportation study to examine the
impacts of continued growth in the region and its impacts on the corridor, which has resulted in
the identification of a river crossing as a priority improvement; and
WHEREAS, a second river crossing connecting Wright and Sherburne Counties has the potential
to create incredible, dynamic, and long-lasting economic benefit for the affected communities, as
well as long-term impacts on land use, transportation and economic development for the entire
region; and
WHEREAS, a river crossing is a major generational infrastructure improvement which requires
the cooperation and commitment of multiple jurisdictions, extensive environmental review,
significant funding resources, and the modification or expansion of transportation patterns and
corridors; and
WHEREAS, Sherburne County has recognized a second river crossing's economic development
potential for 3600 acres of developable area, including proposed rail park facilities; which at full
development may result in an estimated 1000+ freight vehicles passing through Monticello to I-
94 daily; and
WHEREAS, the eventual decommissioning of electric generating facilities in the region requires
a planning collaboration for the betterment of land use and economic opportunity in Wright and
Sherburne Counties; and
WHEREAS, grants are available for assisting with funding of studies and economic
development initiatives intended to assist communities in transition due to transformation of the
energy economy; and
WHEREAS, the transportation study undertaken by the Coalition has yielded a river bridge
crossing alternative located beyond the jurisdictional boundaries represented in the current Joint
Powers Agreement, but within the boundaries of the Monticello Orderly Annexation Area,
WHEREAS, the City of Monticello seeks to understand how a second river crossing will affect
existing public and private investment, preserve and enhance current economic vitality, influence
quality of life, neighborhood livability, and create new economic opportunity for the region; and
WHEREAS, the City of Monticello desires additional information on a second river crossing's
potential impact to the supporting transportation networks, and the opportunity the TH 25
corridor represents in relationship to regional economic development goals; and
WHEREAS, as development pressure in undeveloped areas along the river increases, it is in the
best interest of the Coalition to provide for more complete long-term planning to enable more
effective decision-making in river crossing alignment areas; and
WHEREAS, the City of Monticello believes the transportation study undertaken by the Highway
25 Coalition has been valuable in revealing that broader analysis of the TH 25 carridor and
suggested river crossing alternatives is warranted to fully explore the ability to harness the
development and economic potential and manage and mitigate the impacts of a second river
crossing,
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OFMONTICELLO,
MINNESOTA, that the City of Monticello hereby recommends a collaborative effort by the
Highway 25 Coalition to complete a regional economic development analysis of the identified
transportation alternatives to enhance the transportation study in progress, improve available
information for infrastructure grant applications, and to support future decision-making by the
Coalition. This recommendation is further supported by a financial commitment by the City of
Monticello for the proposed economic development analysis.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
MONTICELLO, that the City of Monticello hereby proposes that such study evaluate:
■ The economic impact for each entity as a result of each alternative;
■ Land uses most likely to develop in support of the alternatives, including intensity and
extent;
■ The transportation systems and networks necessary to support the alternative river
crossing locations and rail park, with the goal of reinforcing and supporting the
connectivity between TH 25, I-94 and US 10, including:
• Grade-separated rail crossings
• Collector road systems throughout the impacted region, including
collector connections back to TH 25
• Other system improvements
■ An understanding of the volume and disbursement of varying traffic types resulting
from each alternative, including freight, regional, commuter and local traffic.
■ An understanding of the modifications and costs thereof to achieve the change
■ The framework for providing utilities and other public service systems in support of
each improvement and its development area;
■ Other impacts as determined by the partners of the Coalition.
■ Priorities and recommendations resulting from the data collection and analysis.
BE IT FURTHER RESOL VED, BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
MONTICELLO, that the City of Monticello hereby proposes that continued discussion of
transportation and economic development analyses include representatives of the stakeholders
within the broader geographic region encompassing the proposed river crossing alternatives.
ADOPTED BY the Monticello City Council this 25th day of February, 2019.
