Mr. Martig presented the financial statements. Electric Division Net Loss increased
by $42K with increased revenues but increased operating expenses as well.

usage. Overall running very similar to budget. Gas Division Net income increase by
$79K with increased revenue and usage. Customers were charged an additional
$61 K as opposed to a credit of $51 K a year ago which is why revenues were up a
much higher percentage than usage.
Commissioner Hanson inquired about the Rate Stabilization Fund in both Gas and
Electric.

segment on the 12-inch natural gas lateral near Hutchinson by July 2022. WSB

assistance is dependent on timing of length of confirmatory digs on pipeline.
Motion by Commissioner Hanson, second by Commissioner Morrow to Approve
Requisition #8971- WSB Engineering Assistance of Integrity Assessment of High
Consequence Area. Motion carried unanimously.
b. Review Compensation Study Results
2
GM Carter provided an overview of the Compensation Study Results that were
received from Bakertilly. As HUC has moved the grid and had Union Contracts,
the overall summary shows that HUC is keeping pace with the peer group. GM
Carter noted that there are a few positions +- above and below 5% but these are
in line from past Compensation Studies. HUC is behind on accrual balances but
nothing of significance along with vacation being below average on the front end.
For Health and Dental Insurance, HUC is one of the few with a high deductible
plan; employee and employer splits are fairly similar, along with some utilities
offering vision plans. At one time HUC was one of the only groups to have HSA,
that is not the case anymore. Overall, HUC is within market with the exception of
accruals.
c. Approve Union contract January 1, 2022 — December 31, 2023
GM Carter reviewed the Union Negotiation Summary on what articles were
looking to be changed during the negotiation process. Looking to settle on a 2-
year contract, at a 4% hourly pay increase each year. Other articles in the
contract that look to be changed are the stand by pay, Christmas Eve holiday pay
when Christmas falls on a weekend, along with asking the Board to move to Bi -
weekly accruals on both union and non -union.
Commissioner Martinez and President Cheney both commented that overall the
negotiation process went well.
Ms. Brenda Ewing noted that the Memorandum of Health Care Savings is still
under review by MSRS and that can be approved at a future meeting
Motion by Commissioner Hanson, second by Commissioner Wendorff to approve
the Union contract January 1, 2022 — December 31, 2023. Motion carried
unanimously.
d. Approve 2022 Pay Grid.
GM Carter presented the Approval of the 2022 Pay Grid. GM Carter recapped
discussions that were held in previous months with the Commission. GM Carter
stated that HUC annually considers a market adjustment to the current pay grid
based on market statistics. GM Carter reviewed the statistical findings. Based on
the findings, the recommendation would be for the non -union pay grid for 2022 to
incorporate a 4% grid shift.
Commissioner Hanson noted a 4% increase to the grid is fine but also inquired
about the inconsistencies with the top end of the GM grade position that shows a
max amount that is something that is not allowable based on the current position
of the Governor's salary cap. Is this something that should be noted on the grid
to create some type of consistency.
GM Carter stated the need to make sure that internal equity is kept consistent
3
between grades of positions. If a level is changed the same consistency has to
be followed through all the levels. A Compensation study looks at the market
data and the internal equity and where the levels are at and making sure all levels
are spaced appropriately; this allows the Board and Organization to move people
and change positions during a reorganization.
Commissioner Hanson looked to Ms. Ewing and Mr. Sebora to see if there are
any concerns with approving the Pay Grid as presented and knowing that the
intention is not to exceed the Governor's salary cap.
Mr. Sebora stated there is no liability in having the grid as presented just so the
GM salary does not pay over the governor's salary cap.
After discussion, it was noted to continue to monitor this situation.
Motion by Commissioner Wendorff, second by Commissioner Hanson to approve
the 2022 Pay Grid. Motion carried unanimously.
e. Approve 2022 Budget and CIP
GM Carter presented for approval the 2021 Budgets & CIP. At the November 24,
2021 Commission meeting a high-level overview of the 2022 budgets were
reviewed and major changes budgeted from 2021 to 2022 were discussed in
detail. Since that time, some additions and reductions have been made on the
revenue/expense side of the 2022 Electric Division operating budget reflected in
the final budgets. These changes include PCA revenue (increase of $100,000),
Generation Fuel Budget (Increase of $192,930), Distribution and
Repairs/Maintenance (increase of $40,000), Production Elevator Repairs
(increase of $73,000), MISO Purchases (decrease of $97,043), and
Machinery/Boiler Insurance (decrease of $10,101). GM Carter stated on the 5
Year CIP there was a minor expense change of $2K in the production area.
Commissioner Hanson noted that the 2022 Budgets and CIP were very well
thought out and presented along with being consistent with the expectations of
the Commission. The Commissioners agreed.
After discussion, a motion by Commissioner Morrow, second by Commissioner
Martinez to Approve the 2022 Budget and CIP. Motion carried unanimously.
President Cheney noted before speaking of Agenda 8f, it is needed to add a new
agenda item 8g - Discuss Non -union Vacation Policy- Accrual portion.
g. Discuss Non -Union Vacation Policy -Accrual portion
12
GM Carter started the conversation on the current Non -Union Vacation Policy. For
the most part, the new non -union vacation policy would mirror what is currently in
the union contract. There are three adjustments that Staff would like the
Commissioners to considerer: 1) Move the vacation to bi-weekly accruals, versus a
lump sum added on an employee's anniversary date, 2) Have the max accrual
balance carry-over transition from an employee's anniversary date to the end of the
calendar year, and 3) Increase the annual accrual rate to 2 times an employee's
annual accrual rate. Currently the union contract only allows 40 hours of carry over
and the non -union allows one times an employee's annual accrual. HUC would look
to transition this direction over the next two calendar years to ensure no employee
loses any of their vacation balances. The only difference on the non -union vacation
policy that is being proposed is an additional pay -out option not to exceed 40 hours
if an employee can't use all their vacation in a calendar year if a minor extension of
time doesn't work.
GM Carter noted at the very least Staff is looking to approve the bi weekly accruals.
Discussions were held on the adjustments, concern over the payout option, the
flexibility it creates and the accrual on the books.
After discussion, a motion by Commissioner Martinez, second by Commissioner
Wendorff to Approve the Non -Union Vacation Policy Accrual as presented.
Motion carried unanimously.
f. Conduct the Performance Review of Hutchinson Utilities Commission General
Manager Pursuant to Minnesota Statute 13D.05 Subd. 3(a)
President Cheney introduced the agenda item, the General Manager's annual
performance review. President Cheney advised GM Carter that he has the option to
have the performance review conducted as either an open session or a closed
session of the Utility Commission. GM Carter indicated his decision to have the
review as part of a closed session.
President Cheney entertained a motion to go into closed session to conduct the
twelve-month (annual) performance review as permitted under Minnesota Statute
13D.05, Subdivision 3(a). Motion by Commissioner Hanson, second by
Commissioner Morrow to go into closed session to conduct the General Manager's
performance review. The motion passed unanimously. The Commission then
proceeded into a closed session at 4.15 p.m.

Net Loss increased by $3,575,325 with decreased revenues due to MRES refund and transformer insurance proceeds in 2020. December 2020 Depreciation is also
negative due to software change. Year to Date numbers are accurate. The YTD budget to actual variance for depreciation was due to budgeting for 6 months
of depreciation on the new engines but actually depreciating them over the full 12 months. Generator fuels were up due to much higher generation in 2021
which coincides with higher Sales for Resale.
Sales for Resale of $312,447 consisted of $68,197 in market sales, $98,000 in capacity sales to Rice Lake and $146,250 in capacity sales to AEP. December 2020
Sales for Resale of $258,475 consisted of $14,225 in market sales, $146,250 in capacity sales to AEP, and $98,000 in capacity sales to Rice Lake. December 2019
Sales for Resale of $205,299 consisted of $6,356 in market sales, $36,400 in Transalta tolling fees, $13,043 in Transalta energy sales, $136,000 in capacity sales
to SMMPA, and $13,500 in capacity sales to AEP.
Overall Purchased Power decreased by $74,380. MRES purchases increased by $3,433 and market purchases/MISO costs decreased by $77,813.

WELCOME TO
HUTCHINSON UTILITIES COMMISSION
WHAT IS HUTCHINSON UTILITIES COMMISSION?
The Municipal Electric Light Plant was established in 1935 as a result of a special election
authorizing the establishment of a new generating plant and distribution system through a bond
issue of $250,000 to pay for the construction. The vote was 1,187 for and 128 against. Contracts
were awarded for the construction of a new power plant building at the intersection of State
Highways 7 and 15. The contract included three (3) 625 hp 430 kw diesel generating units,
switchboard, a complete distribution system and other auxiliary equipment. On November 28
1936, construction was completed and by January of 1937, over 600 customers were connected.
By the end of March, the system was serving 1,171.
The City Charter was amended in 1935 to create a Utilities Commission to manage and operate
the system.
In 1960, the City constructed a natural gas distribution system, buying natural gas from Northern
Natural Gas Company, and selling it to the citizens of Hutchinson and the surrounding rural area.
Natural gas was also used in firing the dual generating units of the light plant.
In 2003, in order to control natural gas transportation costs, Hutchinson Utilities constructed a high
pressure natural gas transmission pipeline to serve this community.
This transmission line is interconnected with Northern Border Pipeline near Trimont, Minnesota
which allows Hutchinson Utilities to transport natural gas to its customers in addition to other
municipal utilities and industrial end users located along the pipeline corridor.
Since 1936, the Hutchinson Utilities Commission, consisting of three (3) qualified voters of the
City of Hutchinson, has operated the Municipal Electric Plant and the Natural Gas Distribution
System. It was established by Section 17 of the City Charter that the Commissioners be appointed
by the City Council, one (1) every two years, for a six year term. No Commissioner can serve more
than two (2) successive terms. The Commission elects a President, Vice President, and Secretary.
In November of 1987, the City Charter was amended to expand the Utilities Commission to a five
(5)-member board. Each Commissioner's term will be five (5) years and no Commissioner can
serve more than two (2) successive terms.
The City Charter gives the Commission full, absolute and exclusive control of and power over
the Electric and Natural Gas Operations of Hutchinson Utilities. The Commission hires a
General Manager to manage the day-to-day operation of the Utilities.
The Hutchinson Utilities Commission has, for many years, made substantial cash contributions to
the General Fund of the City of Hutchinson from surplus earnings of both the electric and gas
divisions of the Utilities.
Hutchinson Utilities Commission has provided and will continue to provide to its customers,
electricity and natural gas at the lowest possible cost.
