(b) CONSIDERA nON FOR APPROVAL OF CREATING CITY FUND TO BE KNOWN AS THE "TAX RELIEF FUND" . Mayor Cook noted that an idea he has come up with is to create a separate fund called a Tax Relief Fund. This fund would be comprised of a portion of any excess monies left over after improvement bonds are closed out. Mayor Cook IS proposing to take $500,000 from the Special Assessment Fund and put into the Tax Relief Fund for reducing the tax levy. Then, in 2007, 50% of any new excess bond funds would be deposited into the Tax Relief Fund and 50% would be depos.ited into the Special Assessment Fund primarily for capital projects. Not more than 25% of the Tax Relief Fund could be withdrawn annually and no decisions about withdrawals from the Tax Relief Fund could be formally made prior to November of each year. Council Member Hau!\en noted that he was not clear on the necessity for this type offund, as the Council is responsible for managmg all funds, and should be diligent in keeping taxes down by not spending excess money. Mayor Cook clarified how this type of concept is advantageous and has not been done before.

The mayor noted he does not feel that there was enough distinction between good performance and those that exceed expectations. Mayor Cook presented a proposal that places higher expectations on the lower performers, yet suitably rewards those who meet and exceed. expectations. This proposal was presented to the Wage Committee lastweek. Jim Haugen, member of the Wage Committee, stated that the Committee had studied the proposal at great length. The Wage Committee would like to evaluate the current plan for an additional year before making modifications to it.. . Btenda Ewing, Human Resources Director, presented before the Council.

The PLS Board is asking each city and county in the Pioneerland Library System service area to approve and implement these resolutions. You are being asked to present this resolution to your respective governing body for their considemtion at their next scheduled meeting.

Your support of this resolution is important in the communication necessary to inform legislators of the serious fiscal needs of Minnesota's regional libraries and those in . particular of the Pioneerland Library System. In behalf of the Pioneerland Library System Board, I thank you for you consideration of this matter and your continued support.

The City of Hutchinson Personnel Policy - Employee Handbook does allow the following in regards to employee events and the use of City funds; Unless approved by the city administrator, no employee shall receive pay from the city in addition to the salary authorized for the position to which the employee has been appointed. However, compensation in the form of an annual picnic, holiday activity, or tribute at a funeral, may be authorized by the city council to recognize the contributions of employees and/or board rnembers. It is requested that you review and consider this requested use of City funds. I will be in attendance at the Council rneeting on December 12 if you have any questions. eo0 ) . . .

The City of St. Cloud Citizen Survey SURVEY BACKGROUND -_._~---------~---"'-------'---'--'-"--'-'"~--'-'-~",-----~_.__._._----~,._._---_..~-,~~. - ",'---_._.'-----~-"_.,-~ About The National Citizen Survey ™ ---~----~-----~-----'--- The National Citizen Survey~ (The NCS~) is a collaborative effort between National Research Center, Inc. (NRC) and the Intemational City/County Management Association (ICMA). The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality survey methods and comparable results across The National Citizen Surveym jurisdictions. Participating households are selected at random and the household member who responds is selected without bias. Multiple maJings give each household more than one chance to participate with self-addressed and postage paid envelopes. Results are statistically re-weighted to reflect the proper demographic composition of the entire community. The National Citizen Surveym customized for this jurisdiction was developed in close cooperation with local jurisdiction staff. The City of St. Cloud staff selected items from a menu of questions about services and community problems; they defined the jurisdiction boundaries NRC used for sampling; and they provided the appropriate letterhead and signatures for mailings. City of St. Cloud staff also determined local interest in a variety of add-on options to The National Citizen Survey'. Basic Service. ~ " ~ o u -;-; c o ;:f , '" ~ ;i E , ,.~.

While standardization of question wording and survey methods provide the rigor to assure valid results, each jurisdiction has enough flexibility to construct a customized version of The National Citizen Surveym that asks residents about key local services and important local issues. Results offer insight into residents' perspectives about local govemment performance and as such provide important benchmarks for jurisdictions working. on performance measurement. The National Citizen SurveyN is designed to help with budget, land use and strategic planning as well as to communicate with local residents. The National Citizen Surveym peirnits questions to test support for local policies and answers to its questions also speak to community trust and involvement in community-building activities as well as to resident demographic characteristics. S~mpli~__________ Approximately 1,200 households were selected to participate in tI,e survey using a stratified systematic sampling method.3 An individual within each household was selected using the birthday method" Survey Administration ..._._-----~--_.._----- Selected households received three mailings, one week apart, beginning November 23, 2005. The first mailing was a prenotification postcard announcing the upcoming survey. The next mailing contained a letter from the city administrator inviting the household to participate, a questionnaire and postage-paid return envelope. The final mailing contained a reminder letter and another survey and postage-paid rerum envelope. Completed surveys were collected over the following five weeks. !tesp011:se Rate and C_onfidenc~ Intervals of the 1,133 eligible households, 440 completed the survey providing a response rate of 39%. Approximately.77 addresses sampled were "vacant" or "not found.5" In general, the response rates obtained on citizen surveys range from 25% to 40%. The sample of 3 Systematic sampling is a method that closely approximates random sampling by selecting every Nth address until the desired number of hooseholds is chosen. ~ The birthday method Is a process to remove bias in the selection of a person within the household by asking the ~person whose birthday has most recently passed~ to complete the questionnaire. The underlying assumption in this method is that day of birth has no relationship to the way people respond to surveys but leaving selection of respondent to household members will lead to bias. ~ "Eligible" households refer to addresses that belong to residences that are not vacant within the City of 81. Cloud. ____,_--E~ort of Results 46 r' ,I 1 I I 1 . I I 1 . c C ~ u -::t I 6 .~ ill ! r- , i ! The City of St. Cloud Citizen Survey Appendix B: Survey f..1e,hodQ1ciJY households was selected systematically and impartially from a list of residences in the United States maintained by the U.S. postal service and sold to NRC through an independent vendor. For each household, one adult, selected in an unbiased fashion, waS asked to complete the survey. In theory, in 95 cases out of 100, the results based on such samples will differ by no more than 5 percentage points in either direction from what would have been obtained had responses been collected from all St. Cloud adults. This difference is also called a "margin of error.6" This difference from the presumed population finding is referred to as the sampling error. For subgroups of responses, the margin of sampling error is larger. In addition to sampling error, the practical difficulties of conducting any survey of the public may introduce other sources of error. For example, the failure of some of the selected adults to participate in the sample or the difficulty of including all sectors of the population, such as residents of some institutions or group residences, may lead to somewhat different results. Weighting and An_alyzing the Data The surveys were analyzed using the SPSS statistical package. Frequency distributions and average (mean) ratings are presented in the body of the report. The demographic characteristics of the sample were compared to those of the City of St. Cloud as reflected in the information sent by staff to National Research Center, Inc. When necessary, survey results were statistically adjusted to reflect the known population profile, :;.! Generally, only two variables are used in a weighting scheme. Known population characteristics are compared to the characteristics of survey respondents. Generally, characteristics chosen as weighting varia1les are selected because they are not in proportion to what is shown in a jurisdiction's demographic profile and because differences in opinion are observed between subgroups of these characteristics. The socioeconomic characteristics that were used to weight the survey results were gender/age and tenure. Other discrepancies between the whole population and the sample were also aided by the weighting due to the intercorrelation of many socioeconomic characteristics, although the percentages are not always identical in the sample compared to the population norms. The results of the weighting scheme are presented in the table on the following page. ~ 8 ~ D:: ~ > -'.:J A ~ > 'i '0 e The margIn of error was calculated using the following fonnula: 1.96 .. square root (0.25/400). This margin of error is calculated in the most conservative way. The standard error was assumed to be the greatest for a bi.nomial distribution: 50%150%. ____m~_~~_~g-P~~_~{.g':.~l..lh~____.___.,_~__ 47 . r I .1 I I I I I I .1 I I I ,L' ~ I (fi i '= ! ~ i :.e 1 r~ .I!~ i I!

CITY OF HUTCHINSON 2007 COMPENSATION PLAN Effective January 1,2007 RESOLUTION NO. 13089 RESOLUTION ADOPTING POSITION CLASSIFICATION ASSIGNMENT TABLE AND CORRESPONDING PAY GRID EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1,2007 WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the existing classification of positions for the City of Hutchinson and the current economic conditions, BE IT RESOLVED, that a Position Classification Plan is hereby adopted. All positions covered by this Resolution shall be grouped in grades having a definite range of difficulty and responsibility. For each position there shall be a title; and there shall be shown examples of work which are illustrative of duties of positions, as well as requirements as to knowledge, abilities and skills necessary for performance of the work; and a statement of experience and training desirable for recruitment into a position. A. Plan Obiectives . To establish and maintain a compensation plan that enables the City of Hutchinson to be highly competitive within our defined market. . .

To ensure, subject to the financial condition of the City, that employees receive fair and equitable compensation in relation to their individual contributions to the City's success. To follow the principles of pay equity in establishing and maintaining pay relationships among positions based on the categories of the Stanton Point Factor System. To ensure program flexibility necessary to meet changing economic, competitive, technological, and regulatory conditions encountered by the City. To balance compensation and benefit needs with available resources. . I I . . . I i i I The compensation plan specifies salary range minimums and maximums.

Memorandum TO: " Mayor and Council Brenda EWingWn Resources Director . 2007 EmPIOyee~ealth and Dental Insurance Renewal Information FROM: RE: DATE: December 7, 2006 The City of Hutchinson is finalizing the process for establishing the 2007 employee health and dental insurance programs. After numerous discussions with our risk manager at Berkley Risk and with our local agent who, in turn, have had considerable contact with our current and potential providers, the City has been presented with the cost proposals for the health and dental insurance programs for 2007. The Wage Committee has also had the opportunity to review the proposals for the health and dental insurance coverage. Council member Jim Haugen, as the Council representative to committee, has been part of the Wage Committee discussions regarding this matter. The recommendations from the Wage Committee to the City Council are as follows: 1. Dental Insurance Plan Adopt the proposal to continue with the self-insured program with Midwest Dental as the third party claims administrator. The renewal for 2007 includes a funding level increase of 1.7%. The single funding level rate i'1creases from $36.95 to $37.53/month and the family funding level rate increases from $82.75 to $84.14/month. Employees are responsible for 20% of the premium amount, and the City's responsibility is 80% ofthe premium. 2. Health Insurance Plan Consider and adopt the fully insured proposal from Medica. Medica has proposed a two-year proposal that caps the second year increase at 19% above the proposed 2007 premium rates. The plan design offered by Medica is very similar to that which is currently in place. Plan design includes items such as deductible amounts, out-of-pocket maximums, percentage of covered services paid by the plan, lifetime maximum, and prescription costs. The premiums proposed for 2007 are approximately 12.9% and 11.5% below the respective single and family coverage self-funded premium rates currently in place for 2006. The health insurance costs for the Medica proposal are included in the various City budget proposals to be presented, to the Council both at the December 12, 2006, and subsequent Council meetings. I have also attached a spreadsheet that illustrates the current health insurance plan summary and premium costs as compared to the Medica proposal. If you have any questions regarding this information, please contact Ken Merrill or me at City Center. I will also be in attendance at the Council meeting. Enel. 'Deb) T I ! 1 !

I ()( h) . . . " ORDINANCE NO. 06-0449 Smoke-Free Workplace Ordinance " The City of Hutchinson, Minnesota ordains: . SECTION 1. FINDINGS OF FACT AND PURPOSE. The City Council finds that: Tobacco smoke is a leading cause of disease in nonsmokers and a major source of indoor air pollution. Secondhand smoke causes premature death and disease in children and in adults. Secondhand smoke causes heart disease, lung cancer, respiratory infections, decreased respiratory function, and other health problems. In a 2006 Report of the United States Surgeon General, U.S. Surgeon General Carmona concluded that "exposure to secondhand smoke remains an alarming public health hazard" and that "more than 126 million nonsmokers are still exposed." Numerous, nationally recognized medical and scientific authorities, including the American Medical Association, the U. S. Surgeon General, the National Institute on Occupational Safety and Health, the National Cancer Institute, the Environmental Protection Agency, the National Academy of Sciences, the National Toxicology Program, and the World Health Organization, have issued reports and health advisories addressing the adverse effects of exposure to secondhand smoke. It is estimated that between 24,300 and 71,900 low birth-weight or pre-term deliveries, about 202,300 episodes of childhood asthma (new cases and exacerbations), between 150,000 and 300,000 cases of lower respiratory illness in children, and about 789,700 cases of middle ear infections in children occurin the United States each year as a result of exposure to secondhand smoke. It is estimated that in the U.S., secondhand smoke causes about 46,000 (a range of 22,700 to 69,600) deaths per year from cardiac-related illnesses (including 700 to 1,240 deaths among Minnesotans),and 3,400 deaths per year from lung cancer. There is no known safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke; neither the separation of smokers and nonsmokers nor the introduction of new ventilation systems can eliminate the health hazards caused by secondhand smoke. The scientific evidence indicates that there is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Eliminating smoking in indoor spaces protects nonsmokers from exposure to secondhand smoke. Separating smokers from nonsmokers, cleaning the air, or ventilating buildings cannot eliminate exposure of nonsmokers to secondhand smoke. The only means of effectively eliminating health risks associated with indoor exposure is to prohibit smoking. Objective evidence does not support fears that restricting smoking in enclosed, indoor areas will harm a community's economy. On the contrary, many independent economic studies have shown that the elimination of smoking has no material economic impact on a . community. These studies have drawn from the experience of hundreds of communities leli, . . . that have successfully eliminated smoking in workplaces and public places. Numerous U.S. cities, counties, and states, and many nations, have adopted laws ending all smoking in bars, restaurants, and other public places: Business owners have no legal or constitutional right to expose their employees and customers to airborne toxins, such as those found in secondhand smoke. On the contrary, employers have a common law duty to provide workers with a workplace that is not unreasonably dangerous. Restricting smoking in public places and places of work can h~lp to model smoke-free . behavior and to reduce youth exposure to secondhand smoke. Public health policies, ordinances, and other laws are part of the system by which people learn behaviors, guide youth, reduce health threats, and reinforce community norms that support the public's health. Accordingly, the City Council finds and declares that the purpose of this Ordinance is to: ;... (1) Protect vulnerable populations, including employees, children, the elderly, and those with chronic health conditions; and (2) Affirm that the right to breathe has priority over the desire to smoke; and (3) Protect the public health, welfare and safety by better ensuring the ability of citizens to breathe safe and uncontaminated air; SECTION 2.

MEMORANDUM From THE LIQUOR HUTCH To: Mayor and Council From: Candice Woods, DirectorlManager Liquor Hutch Date: December 11, 2006 Re: Liquor Hutch Tobacco License Listed below are the sales and profit dollars for tobacco products at the Liquor Hutch: . 2005 sales 2005 gross profits $26,192.48 $ 6,970.98 2005 net profits (approx 9%) $ 627.39 2006 sales to date 2006 gross profits to date $25,224.15 $ 5811.57 2006 net profits to date (9%) $ 523.04 Tobacco sales profits account for approximately 0.2% of the annual net profits at the Liquor Hutch. Because of the low volume of tobacco sales, we have always carried tobacco only as a convenience for our customers without regard to competitive pricing, Loss of these sales would have a minimal impact on the store's ability to transfer profit dollars to the City of Hutchinson General Fund, . \bGJ R55A,\,PYRV I CITY OF HUTCHINSON By Check Number AP Payment Register with Voids Check Dates 12/12/2006 - Ck Date Typ, Check # Vendor Name Amount 12/12/2006 PK 139814 105651 AAA STRIPING SERVICE CO 6,625,01 12/12/2006 PK 139815 102202 ABDO, EICK & MEYERS 150.00 12/12/2006 PK 139816 102271 ABM EQUIPMENT & SUPPLY 1,199,84 12/12/2006 PK 139817 102126 ACE HARDWARE 591,62 12/12/2006 PK 139818 102217 AEM MECHANICAL SERVICES, INC 508.18 12/12/2006 PK 139819 123644 AES-ASSESSCO ENVIRONMENTAL SER 800,00 12/12/2006 PK, 13\)820 108765 ALEXANDRIA TECHNICAL COLLEGE 200,00 12/12/2006 PK 139821. 105048 ALL AMERICAN SPORTS CORP 569.62 12/12/2006 PK 139822 101863 AMERICAN WELDING SUPPLIES 24,00 12/12/2006 PK 139823 107549 AMERICINN 179,89 12/1212006 PK 139824 102430!AMERIPRIDE LINEN & APPAREL 300,21 12/12/2006 PK 139825 123698 ANDERSON, RACHEL 34,32 12/12/2006 PK 139826 105204 ARCTIC GLACIER PREMIUM ICE INC 94,60 12/12/2006 PK 139827 111041 ARROW TERMINAL LLC 374,64 12/12/2006 PK 139828 121810 AT & T 42.92 12/12/2006 PK 139829 102303 AUGUSTA BUILDING CORP 19,419,83 12/12/2006 PK I 139830 102480 B W, WELDING 84,67 12/12/2006 PK. 139831 121462 BARN YARD, THE 1,120,00 12/12/2006 PK 139832 120853 BAUERL Y BRO, INC 20,889,25 12/12/2006 PK 139833 102367 BELLBOY CORP 1,388,50 12/12/2006 PK 139834 102039' BENNETT OFFICE TECHNOLOGIES 46.00 12/1212006,PK 139835 120738 BERTELSON'S 165,87 12/12/2006 PK 139836 103288 BLAKE, IRENE 10.00 12/12/2006 PK 139837 101987 BRANDON TIRE CO 355,87 12/12/2006 PK 139838' 118880 BROOKS, DOUG 65.00 W1212006 PK 139839 122816 BURMEISTER, JOEL 60,00 12/1212006 PK 139840 121089 BUSHMAN, RAQUEL 160.47 . 12/12/2006 PK 139841 102136 BUSINESSWARE SOLUTIONS i 750.40 ! 12/12/2006 PK. 139842 102456 C & L DISTRIBUTING I 36,290,20! 12/12/2006 PK 139843 123539 C,H.
