COUNCIL MINUTES
MARCH 129 1985 i
Corp., explained the criteria used to determine the issuance of in-
dustrial revenue bonds. It was the board's recommendation to ap-
prove the application for a $1,400,000 motel project.
Architect John Korngiebel presented drawings for the proposed 52-
room project.
Mr. Larry Bethke stated 60% of his clientele would come from out of
town and would not be in competition with the other existing motels.
No feasibility study had been prepared on the project.
Mr. Jim McClure, 1301 Campbell Lane, asked about the city's limita-
tion on issuing industrial revenue bonds and if approval of all the
projects would exceed the city's allotment.
City Administrator Plotz responded approval of all the projects
would exceed the city's limit by $160,000. However, the city would
have two options to obtain additional funding.
Mr. Michael
Wilhelmson,
Coon
Rapids, commented on 60% of the custo-
mers coming
from out of
town
and not competing with the other motels
in town. He
asked where
the
other 40% would come from.
0
Mr. McClure commented on the lack of a feasibility study on the
proposed project. He pointed out that at the time the S & L
project was done, they were required by the city to have a study
prepared.
Alderman Carls responded that the S & L project also included tax
increment financing, which the Bethke project did not. Therefore,
the city was directly involved.
Ms. Betty Beightol, owner of Hutch Motel, remarked that the Bethke
project followed the guidelines on 7 points; she inquired about the
two points that did not meet the guidelines. She stated there
would be a financial advantage to competition.
Mr. Dave Bagne, owner of King Motel, asked if the Community Devel-
opment Corp. had considered competition with other local business.
There was some concern in the guidelines of direct competition to
other business. The two applications should be considered together
rather than independently. He questioned if the town was capable
of supporting this number of beds. He also felt consideration
should be given to a feasibility study.
Mr. McClure stated that due to changes in state and federal laws,
the city and Council have more responsibility regarding industrial •
revenue bonds since there is a limited amount allocated to each
city. The Council has the responsibility to decide whether or not
the project is good for the city.

• COUNCIL MINUTES
MARCH 12, 1985
Mr. Bob Mlinar, manager of Americ -Inn, thought it wouldn't be fair

he purchased the King Motel. At that time studies showed the pro-
jected growth rate of Hutchinson to be two percent.

nancial information to the Council to aid them in making a decision.

2. MINUTES
The minutes of the regular meeting, dated Tuesday, January 15, 1985,
were approved as presented upon a motion by Mr. Torgerson. Seconded by

3. PUBLIC HEARINGS
(a) CONTINUATION OF REZONING REQUEST AS SUBMITTED BY ROBERT HORNICK
(C -2)
Chairman Homo reconvened the hearing at 7:30 p.m. with the reading
of publication #3361 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, January 3, 1985. The request is to rezone property
M located at 29 4th Ave. N.W. and a portion of the lot located at 402
Main St. North, from R-2 to C -2 for the purpose of providing a
parking lot to the adjoining Gas Hutch. Mr. Hornick also proposes
some upgrading and expansion of the present station.
There was no one present regarding the request. As there had been
no change from an earlier request which the Planning Commission had
recommended be rejected, it was the consensus of the Commission to
proceed. Dr. Lyke made a notion to close the public hearing at 7:32
p.m. Seconded by Mr. Erickson, the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Erickson made a motion to recommend to City Council that the
rezoning as requested be rejected. Seconded by Mr. Torgerson, the
motion carried unanimously.
(b) CONTINUATION OF REZONING REQUEST AS SUBMITTED BY ROBERT HORNICK
(IC-1)
Chairman Romo reconvened the hearing at 7:32 p.m. with the reading
of publication #3364 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, January 3, 1985. The request is to rezone property
lccated at 35 4th Ave. N.W. from R -2 to IC -1.
There was no one present regarding the request. In discussion at
the previous hearing, it was determined that zoning this one lot
IC -1 would be spot zoning, and the Planning Commission would prefer
to consider IC -1 zoning for both areas. Mr. Torgerson made a
motion to close the hearing at 7 :35 p.m. Seconded by Mrs. Young,
1
the motion carried unanimously. Mr. Torgerson made a motion to
recommend to City Council that the request be rejected. Seconded
by Mr. Erickson, the motion carried unanimously.
(c) CONSIDERATION OF VARIANCE AS REQUESTED BY ROBERT MCGEE 40
Chairman Romo opened the hearing at 7:35 p.m. with the reading of
publication /3378 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, February 7, 1985. The request is for a 7.61 variance to
allow the construction of a proposed upper level onto an existing
basement foundation, with an attached 18' by 25, garage and a
front porch, 8' from the frontyard property line, on property
located at 173 5th Ave. N.E. It was determined that the average
frontyard setback for that area is 15.81.
City Administrator Plotz stated that the Planning Commission had
previously approved a sideyard variance for the same structure. At
the time of that request, the survey did not show the garage
extending to the front or the front porch. When staff was made
aware of those plans, it was determined another variance is
required.
Mr. Robert McGee was present to explain the request. He raised a
question about the necessity of the variance. There was discussion
about whether or not the "street line" was to be used or the
"property line ". Building Official Pittman maintained that the
variance was necessary because of the the average setbacks of the
surrounding homes. It was also noted that there was an unusually
long boulevard in this area - 221. Mr. Ebent raised a question
about adequate parking. It was decided parking was available. so
After discussion, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to close the hearing
at 7:44 p.m. Seconded by Mr. Hwang, the motion carried
unanimously. Mr. Torgerson made a motion to recommend to City
Council approval of the variance as requested. Seconded by Mr.
Hwang, the motion carried unanimously.
(d) CONSIDERATION OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AS REQUESTED BY FARID
CURRIMBHOY (MONTESSORI SCHOOL /DAY CARE CENTER)
Chairman Romo opened the heairng at 7 :45 p.m. with the reading of
publication #3379 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, February 7, 1985. The request is for a conditional use
permit to allow the operation of a Montessori School /Day Care
Center in the lower level of a proposed duplex on property located
at 504 East Highland Drive in an R -2 zone.
City Administrator Plotz explained that this was similar to the
request considered at the January meeting, but was for a different
location. He also noted that the new plan had one less classroom
so less parking was required.
Mr. Farid Currimbhoy was present to state that he had spoken to the
neighboring property owners and their only request was for a "slow"
traffic sign to be erected to protect neighborhood children as well
2
• as those who might be attending the school. He further explained
that after the project received City approval, It must still be
approved by the Department of Human Services.
Mrs. Lyle Emme, 524 Highland Park Drive, stated that as neighbors,
they would have no objection to the proposed school /day care
operation.
Mr. Ebent asked about the difference between a nursery school and a
day care center regarding "home occupation" and what is allowed by
our ordinance. City Attorney Schaefer responded that "home
occupation" is defined as something that is "incidental to the
residence and occupies a certain percentage (25S)." He further
stated that as this proposal is for the lower level to be occupied
as a nursery school and the upper level a home, it was not
incidental to the residence. Nursery schools and day care
operations are required to meet the same safety requirements by the
State. A difference is that the nursery school may require more
certified personnel.
After discussion, Mr. Erickson made a motion to close the hearing
at 7: 50 p.m. Seconded by Mr. Torgerson, the motion carried
unanimously. Mr. Erickson made a motion to recommend to City
Council approval of the conditional use permit as requested.
Seconded by Mr. Torgerson, the motion carried unanimously.
(e) CONSIDERATION OF AMENDMENT TO SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE #466, SECTION
4.25
Chairman Romo opened the hearing at 7:55 p.m. with the reading of
publication #3380 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, February 7, 1985. The proposal is to amend Subdivision
Ordinance #466 Section 4.25, to increase the numbers of days al-
lowed before a final plat must be filed with the register of deeds
after it has been approved by City Council.
After discussion, Mr. Torgerson moved to close the hearing at 7:57
p.m. Seconded by Mrs. Young, the motion carried unanimously. Mr.
Torgerson made a motion to recommend to City Council approval of
changing the 90 days to 270 days as proposed. Seconded by Mr.
Ebent, the motion carried unanimously.
4. OLD BUSINESS
(a) REVIEW OF SITE PLAN REQUIREMENT FOR REZONING REQUESTS
Mr. Gunnar Isberg, Planning Consultant from Northfield Minnesota,
presented alternative approaches for requiring site plans as part
of the development process as it relates to rezoning. He
supplemented his presentation with written handouts detailing the

E. Mileage Reimbursement. The board discussed the recent change in tax laws
requiring extensive record- keeping for reimbursement over and above 20.50
per mile to employees. It was felt that an amount over 20.50 was of
little advantage in view of the records needed to substantiate reimbursement.
Following discussion:
Motion was made by Carls, seconded by Durfee, to approve a change

vote requested by Blue Cross. Following discussion:
Motion was made by Durfee, seconded by Calrs, to nominate
Jerry Crest of Mankato; Roger Metz of Winona; Gaylord Bridge
of Faribault; and Jeffrey Stevenson of Redwing as members -
at -large to the Blue Cross board of directors. All were in
favor. Motion carried.
G. Title III Grant. Graves informed the board that the hospital has declined
to submit final draft for a Title III grant because current funding of the
day care program through Title II, alternative care grant, and private
monies is now adequate. The grant may be pursued in the future, however,
. if the money situation should change.
H. Joint Meeting with Glencoe. The board was reminded of their joint meeting
with the Glencoe Area Health Center board of directos scheduled for Tuesday,
January 29, at 7:00 PM in the Large Conference Room. Hors d'oeurves will

Presentation by Bob Thompson and John Penrod of LifeSpan - January 14, 1985
Large Conference Room - 7:00 PM
Thompson and Penrod introduced themselves to the board. They recapped their
meetings with the hospital department heads and medical staff members, and
distributed an opinion survey to everyone present. While the survey was
being completed, Thompson spoke to the group about programs the hospital
could be involved in to reach more patients. These programs include:
1. Satellite Clinics (already have)
2. Urgicenters
3. Mobile Diagnostic Centers (getting contact started may convince
outlying patients to come to HCH)
4. CT Scanner (in the works)
5. Ultrasound and Mammography (in the works)
6. Geriatric Center
7. Health and Wellness Programs (started)
8. Chemical Dependency (already have)
9. Mental Health Unit (already have)
Specific strategies to be implemented for market planning:
1. Focus groups (meeting of small group reporting from key group of
consumers)
2. Internal marketing
3. Ratio analysis to come up with required return on investment
4. Investment protocol (Penrod relayed that at Abbott - Northwestern,
• they are required to go through a systematic presentation stating
the basis on which they are projecting volume, use, financial
performance of service, and compare this to the present system;
requests are much more thoughtful with this approach)
Thompson stressed physician relationships - H/MS /P, McSH, PPO (become part of
an established PPO or start your own). In order to promote good relationship
with the physicians, a retreat was suggested, with physicians and trustees
attending, to discuss the following issues:
1. PPO's
2. McSH Joint Ventures
3. Satellite Clinics
4. OB /GYN Recruitment
5. Internal Medicine
6. Medical Center Use of Space
7. Marketing
8. Affiliation with Multi - Hospital Group
It was agreed to contact physicians and attempt to schedule a joint meeting
for February 11, 1985, for the purpose of discussing a board/medical staff retreat.

HUTCHINSON COMMUNITY HOSPITAL and
GLENCOE AREA HEALTH CENTER
JOINT BOARDS OF DIRECTORS MEETING - January 29, 1985
Large Conference Room - 7:00 PM
Present From Glencoe: Duane Klaustermeier, Trustee; Bob Johnson, Trustee;
Al Gruenhagen, Trustee; George Sedivy, Trustee; John Doidge,
Administrator; Chuck Gersdorf, Executive Director; Dr. Peter Smyth, Med. Dir.
Present From Hutchinson: Rev. Thor Skeie, Trustee; Joan Ewald, Trustee;

Mike Carls, Trustee; Dr. William O'Brien, Chief of Staff;
Phil Graves, Administrator; Bill Rosenow, Assistant Administrator;
Jane Lien, Director of Nursing Services; Carolyn Decker, Dietitian;
Laurie Hulkonen, Recording Secretary; Kathleen Ogren, Hutchinson Leader
The meeting was called to order at 7:20 PM following hors d'oeurves.
President Skeie welcomed the Glencoe board to the meeting. He asked that common
concerns and fellowship be shared during the meeting. Those present introduced
themselves and gave their length of service to their respective institutions.
Gersdorf introduced the speaker for the evening, Claudia Wennerling, RN, who is
• the department director of home care at Methodist Hospital in Minneapolis.
Wennerling highlighted the advantages and disadvantages of home health care,
current trends leading to home health care, and spoke of some of Methodist's
experiences in rendering that service. (See attached.)
Discussion of Home Health Care. The group discussed Wennerling's presentation
an asked whether or not home care is the best thing for the patient. Wennerling
felt that sometimes it can be superior to that in the institution; depending on
the people. Hiring experienced RN's and therapists to assess the patient who
relate well to the physician is necessary to ensure good home care. When asked
about home care competing with the nursing homes, it was stressed that home care
is not competing because home care patients do not need 24 -hour care that a
nursing home provides. Home care is another piece the continuum of care
and not meant to replace anything already in place.
It was suggested that the hospital could perhaps fill in the gaps left by
the public health nursing service, which now supplies home health care services
in the county. Weekend, holiday, and evening hours can be scheduled for
visits if needed. Wennerling stressed that the physician support is needed;
for a service like this to survive, it is the physicians who must refer
patients.
Wennerling felt that a joint venture between the two hospitals would be
beneficial because driving distances to the patients in the service area
are so far, and there are two points (hospitals) to go out from in order
• to reach the patients. This should help keep costs down.
joint uoaro ntg. - i /zwts5

Mobile Ultrasound and Mammography. A joint program for mobile ultrasound
and mammography is being pursued because neither hospital at present has large
enough base to pay for initial cost of equipment and provide a fair return
on investment. The Hutchinson Hospital has bought a mammography unit, and Glencoe
now contracts for services elsewhere. The plan at this time is to buy a van,
hire a technician, and shuttle the van back and forth between Glencoe and
Hutchinson.
The boards were encouraged by Dr. Smyth to think along the line of joint
ventures of this type, which can work out to be to everyone's advantage.
Preferred Provider Or anizations. The group discussed the fact that health
maintenance organizations s are currently working to get into our area.
Graves said Hutchinson Hospital feels a real threat from HMO's because our
contract with Blue Cross automatically extends any discounts allowed to HMO's
to Blue Cross.
Preferred provider organizations (PPO's) were discussed. PPO's operate
differently from HMO's and are more attractive to an administrator because
the hospital and doctors can get together and write a plan to sell to any
group. If a patient receives primary care at Hutchinson, for example, he will
not have to pay a deductible; if he goes to Waconia, however, he will have to
pay a higher amount (deductible) for the service in order to access the system.
Money generated by a PPO goes toward lower prices for the group. HMO's are
owned by stockholders, so money made goes to the stockholders and not to the
physicians or to lower patient costs.
Gersdorf asked the boards to let he and Phil know whether or not they should
continue to work together on this.
Ad4ourrm�ent. There being no other items for discussion, the meeting was
adjourned n at 9:00 PM.

Presentation by Claudia Wennerling, RN (Methodist Hospital) - 1/29/85
There will be four times the need for health care now being given by 1995 .
to serve the aging population, which is estimated to be 34 million people over
65 by 1995. Trends are toward cost containment, attitudinal changes in younger
physicians, higher technology, and teaching the family to perform a service
for the patient.
Home health is now provided by public health agencies, hospital agencies,
and private agencies. Services provided are PT, RT, nursing, and speech
therapy:

Health Promotion State b County

Medicare- Certified Proprietary

Criteria for Reimbursement:
Agency must be surveyed by State of MN and certified as a provider.
- Services ordered and included in treatment plan by physician
- Unstable condition (stable not covered)
- Homebound (not necessarily bed - bound)
- Require skilled services
- Part -time (visits)
- Intermittent
Medicare pays only amount of time needed to provide service, not time it takes
to travel to and from patient. A patient can't need a home health service every
day indefinitely, but is allowed to use it every day for up to three weeks.
Wennerling said that Methodist Hospital's criterion for service is that the
patient must live within the service area (defined as within 25 -mile radius).
Anyone living outside that area is referred to another service.
Home Services (Non- Medicare
Payment sources for these services are private pay and, contingent on case,
by an HMO or private insurance. Services provided are unskilled (usually),
with all categories of service available, and can fit the family's schedule.
Non - Medicare services are most frequently provided by home health aides and
• homemakers.
Wennerling stressed that home care is not a panacea. It is not a substitute for
patients needing care provided in an acute care institution or custodial care
provided in a nursing home.

Advantages of Hospital -Based Home Care Services
1. Discharged patients can remain in the system.
2. Continuity of care.
3. Timely response to referral (nurse might meet the ambulance at the
patient's home following discharge to arrange things with the famil
right away rather than having to wait hours or days before doing sol
4. Multiple hospital services avialable.
5. Quality control - JCAH certification adds legitimacy to services.
6. Community public relations can be strengthened (home care nurse can
soften the feeling of being hurried out of the hospital - "they must
care about me if they're sending someone out to take care of me ")
7. A potential revenue source.
She encouraged the boards to identify other agencies presently providing services
in our service area. Those might include public health agencies, other
hospital -based agencies, free - standing proprietary agencies, and others (HMO's,
physicians).
The next step is to determine the geographic service area for home care
delivery and study that service area. The demand for services in different
geographic areas is best done through a quantitative approach, using a
formula (the best model available), utilizing current utilization data from
existing agency (if available), and conducting a retrospective review of
records (recommended).
Advantages for hospital -based providers include:
• 1. Support Services
2. Technical Specialties
3. JCAH - lends credibility
4. Add -on of 13% (by Medicare on hospital cost caps)
5. Share insurances.
6. Cost -based reimbursement (not prospective pay system)
7. Seen as a part of the hospital - quality
Some disadvantages for hospital -based providers are:
1. Step -down method of accounting (consequently, costs are
higher for hospital -based than for free - standing agency)
2. Wage rates (help keep quality personnel)
3. Present policies /systems
4. More difficult to measure reports
5. Lose operating flexibility
Predictions for the future include:
1. Rapid market growth accelerated by cost containment procedures
2. Increasing clinical complexities of home health care services
3. Increasing competition for control of patient
4. Moderation in price increases - emphasis at this time is to build
• up agencies rather than turn huge profits
5. Increasing interest in contractual relationships
6. Likely growth of HMO's
I
Wennerling Presentation - 1/29/85

Wennerling stressed that hospital -based home care can't work without total
hospital involvement - business office, central supply, etc., must work together
toward the end result.
Typical charges for skilled nursing visits are $60 ($38 direct costs, plus
$22 indirect). Methodist carries 75 patients, with 6 RN's making 700 visits
per month. Patients might be seen once a month, twice a week, or each
day.
Wennerling said a hospital should have 6500 discharges per year to warrant
a hospital going into home health care. A home care department should make
400 vits per month to break even.
She recommended Johnson & Johnson's booklet entitled "Everything You Wanted
to Know About Hospital -Based Home Health Care" as an excellent overview of
the issue. She also relayed that there is a legislative move to license
agencies in this business, so the hospitals might want to move as rapidly
as possible.

Present From Hospital Board: Rev. Thor Skeie; Mike Carls; Joan Ewald
Absent: Rolly Balke; Norah Mullan; Robert Durfee
Others Present: Brenda Maiers, Medical Center Administrator; Philip G. Graves,

Director of Nursing Services; Robert Thompson, Life Span; Bill Gedge,
Select Care
Skeie welcomed the group and explained the purpose of the meeting and commitment
that both groups need to have in working together for better health care. Skeie
turned the meeting over to Graves, who introduced Bob Thompson of Life Span,
the long range planning consultant hired by the hospital. Thompson gave an over-
view of the planning process thus far. He reported generally about the findings
from the questionnaires completed by the three groups surveyed (medical staff,
board, and hospital management). Thompson also stressed the importance of
physician - hospital relationships and the growing trend toward working together
to achieve common goals.
Bill Gedge of Select Care was then introduced. Select Care is a preferred provider
organization that was created by Abbott - Northwestern Hospital and now includes
several other hospitals. Gedge explained the difference between PPO's and HMO's
and specifically compared Select Care to Physicians Health Plan, where one would
improve on benefits as opposed to the HMO discounting benefits. The general
consensus of those present was that a PPO is the direction they preferred to
explore further. The main area of interest centered around senior citizen programs
because of the aggressive marketing campaign being done in the area by the
Physicians Health Plan. Gedge indicated he would obtain more information for
the group on how soon they could enter into the market and forward that information
to Graves.
The issue of cost was discussed. Start -up fees would be $150 per bed, or 51 of
PPO patient revenue estimate for the hospital and $150 per physician participating
in the plan. There would be no additional cost for the "Over 65" program. ( Gedge
will find out more about what it would take to be involved in the Senior Program
and report back.) Other costs include a brochure that can be customized to fit
•our hospital; advertising directed by the hospital (Select Care prefers to rely
on 1:1 contacts rather than advertising to the public); time involved with
contacting carriers and community meetings; and marketing (charged at a negotiated
hourly rate).

Strategy in pursuing this issue was discussed. Glencoe and Hutchinson hospitals
.have discussed forming a PPO at a previous meeting. Whether or not Glencoe and
Hutchinson do this together, or whether Hutchinson does it alone, it was agreed
that physicians and board should work together because neither group could accomplish
this alone. The spirit of cooperation has to prevail in order to pull it together.
Both the physicians and hospital board members are going to contact their counterparts
in Glencoe to decide if this project is worthwhile.
There being no further business to discuss at this time, the meeting adjourned
at 9:30 PM.

The meeting was called to order by President Skeie at 5:45 PM.
Minutes of Past Meetings. The minutes of the January 14, 1985, annual meeting
were presented. Graves asked for clarification from the board on the motion to
accept the architect's bid for OB renovation work. The board requested that
the phrase "and to authorize the administrator to proceed with renovation" be
added to the minutes. Following discussion:
Motion was made by Carls, seconded by Ewald, to approve both the
• minutes of the January 14, 1985, annual meeting of the board of
directors, as amended, and the minutes of the January 29, 1985,
joint meeting with the Glencoe Area Health Center board as presented.
All were in favor. Motion carried.
Medical Staff Meeting Minutes. The minutes were presented by O'Brien. No unusual
comments were made.
New Business.
A. Foundation. Graves presented a request from the Hutchinson Community Hospital
Foundation, Inc., for a loan of $5,000 to cover printing costs for their
first public appeal for donations. The loan would be repaid when sufficient
monies have been received in donations. He relayed the foundation board's
enthusiasm for the venture. Following discussion:

of $5,000 to the Hutchinson Community Hospital Foundation, Inc.,

carried.
B. Carpet Replacement. The capital expenditure request for carpet replacement
at the nursing station and orange lobby areas was presented. Following

C. Preferred Provider Organization (PPO). The board spent time discussing
PPG's, HMO's, and their methods of operation. Graves explained that
Select Care of Abbott - Northwestern, the PPO the hospital is looking at,
will come in and work with assisting local insurance brokers to prove to
businesses that their employees can save money by getting their health
care in Hutchinson. This will just build on the existing plan, and will
not require the hospital to create their own insurance company as a PPO
unless a specific program is set up for senior citizens.
Following considerable discussion, a conference call was placed to Bill Gedge
of Select Care, who had offered to answer any questions the board might ask.
Gedge described the PPG's marketing plan of approaching associations or
groups, rather than individuals, to get all their members into the plan.
Select Care works with large groups and groups as small as two, but prefers
to go after those groups most likely to
as much time as it takes to market the
brokers.
sign up. The PPO is willing to spend
plan to the groups and their insurance
Select Care has not had much experience in rural areas but has recently
signed Morris Hospital and eight of their physicians. Gedge explained that
the program is usually established with the hospital employees, which
provides some credibility to the plan for other employers somewhat hesitant
to try something new.
The following costs were discussed:
A. Senior Program: No cost to hospital (cost built into
the premium)
B. Under 65 Program: Costs are purely marketing, which
depends on the hospital's expertise in steering to or
from employers
C. Brochure: A standard brochure is available and can
be changed to fit Hutchinson Community Hospital
D. Time Costs: Time spent with carriers, community meetings,
local Chamber of Commerce, etc.
E. Advertising: Any advertising costs would be incurred at
the direction of the hospital. Select Care's approach has
been to rely on one -to -one contacts with key administrators
rather than advertising to the masses.
F. Start -up Fee: $150 per bed, or 5% of PPO patient revenue
estimate.
G. Physician Fee: $150 per physician
H. Marketing: Charged at a negotiated hourly rate.
Gedge was asked to detail costs as he perceived them to be and get that
information to Graves as soon as possible, including start -up and ongoing
costs.
Gedge mentioned a meeting the next Monday evening with Northwestern National
Life (NWNL) Insurance Company to discuss a program for Hutchinson Technology,
• Inc. NWNL is marketing the Select Care plan in the cities, and they feel
their benefit in participating in this is not losing so much business to
HMO's, their direct competitors. Select Care, as part of Abbott - Northwestern,
sees a benefit as being one of the referral hospitals in the plan and,
therefore, they will receive more patient admissions.
Regular Board of Directors Meeting - 2/19/85

(C.) Graves will wait for Gedge's written report and confer with President Skeie
toto decide if there is need for a special meeting on this subject.
D. Trustee Replacement Candidates: The board reviewed a listing of candidates
suggested at previous meetings and discussed the needs of the board.
Participation from the hospital service area outside of Hutchinson and
the perceived need for women's participation were mentioned as criteria to
consider. The following additional candidates were suggested:
Dori Johnson Sheri Hukreide
June Knutson Warren Klammer (Stewart)
John Keefe Joann Peterson
Don Hartung (Cosmos) Syd Miller
Elroy Wagner (Brownton) Pat Bonniwell (Dassel)
The board was asked to consider further candidates for replacement and
possible expansion of the board, if necessary, to include input from
outside the city limits.
E. Staff Reappointments. O'Brien presented the recommendations by the medical
staff executive committee for approval of staff reappointments. The board
reviewed the recommendations. Following discussion:
Motion was made by Carls, seconded by Balke, to reappoint
the following physicians to their respective staffs:
• Consulting Staff: Daniel Frenning, MD
Allied Health Staff
James P. Felling, PhD
Courtesy Staff: Grant L. Griebie, MD (non - surgical privileges)
All were in favor. Motion carried.
Statistical Report. The statistical report was presented. Average occupancy
for the month was 40 %. Admissions as a whole were down - Hutchinson admissions
had increased, but patients from surrounding areas were down. OB and medical/
surgical admissions from surrounding areas were also down from last year.
It was suggested that the hospital review a listing of births from the Bureau
of Vital Statistics to find out how many people with Hutchinson addresses are
born in Waconia or Glencoe hospitals. This might give the hospital an idea
of where some residents are going to receive their health care.
Accounts Payable. Motion was made by Mullan, seconded by Ewald, to approve for
payment the attached listing of accounts payable and cash disbursements in the
amount of $532,843.28 (including $160,785.32 previously approved). All were in
favor. Motion carried.
Financial Statements. The financial statements were presented. The hospital
• realized a net gain of $28,000 for the month after funding price level depreciation.
Expenses for the year are under those of the previous year.

We have been engaged to review the finanical information on the above
project which is to be acted upon by your City Council. Since the data we have
received is not complete at this time, we are unable to submit a letter to you
on the results of our review.
When we receive the complete information on the project, we will

Re: Rehabilitation of Hutchinson Hotel
Dear Mr. Plotz:

CHARTERED
170 Pillsbury Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55102
Telephone 612133 &1177
As we discussed in our phone conference of March 20, 1985, we are recommending
that the City Council of the City of Hutchinson take the following actions with
respect to the Hutchinson Hotel Project at its meeting on March 26th:
1. Adopt Housing Plan - resolution attached. Since the adoption of a
housing plan requires 30 days' published notice (which has been given), and the plan can
be adopted without any project-specific references (which will be added later as a
Program to be adopted after a separate public hearing), there is nothing preventing
adoption of the housing plan at this time. Therefore, we recommend that you go ahead
with this action at this time.
2. Tax Increment Project —The City Council can continue the public
hearing as per the advice of your financial consultant. Alternatively, the City could, if
it chooses, adopt the tax increment plan amendment, since it is not developer -
specific. The City should meet with the County and School District as scheduled
whether or not the hearing is continued; a second meeting with the County and School
District will not be necessary.
3. Commercial IDBs and Housing Revenue Bonds —The City Council
should establish a new public hearing and cause notice of such hearing to be published
(two resolutions with form of notice attached). The republication is necessary because
of the change of development entity. The former notice would not comply with the
requirements of Section 103(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended,
because of the change from a general partnership to a limited partnership. Although
we discussed the possibility of leaving the name blank to be inserted later, Ihave been
advised by Frank Fay that the new developer will be Parkview Plaza Limited
Partnership. Therefore, the notices are complete other than the date of the hearing,
which must be at least 15 days after the notice appears in the paper. I assume you will
set the date and publish notice accordingly.
Please advise if I can be of any further assistance.
Sincerely,
S Galey

Hutchinson City Council
ATIN: Pat Mikulecky
Hutchinson, MN 55350
In consideration of the fact that due to the results of an auto
accident of May 23, 1984, my health is such that I am not able to
be present at the hearings as it relates to that which is commonly
known as "The Hutch Hotel ", Hutchinson, MN. I hereby request this
being entered into the hearing minutes on the Housing Revenue Bonds
and Tax Increment Financing March 26, 1985. I have asked Alderman,
Pat Mikulecky to read the following:
MAYOR STEARNS AND FELLOW ALDERMEN:
I have recently been informed that the present owner of what is
commonly known as the Hutch Hotel property is requesting tax
increment in the amount of $ 285,000.00. He's also including a
request for the City of Hutchinson to lease a parking lot, this in
my opinion is in gross excess of common courtesy.
With information obtained from the McLeod County Court House, the
estimated market value for the Hutch Hotel for 1984 was $ 128,800.00,
how can a proposed purchase of $ 285,000.00 be justified?
Mr. Fay is a real estate broker and should have knowledge that
apartment units, including land and garages are able to be provided
at a cost of approximately 28,000 - 32,000 dollars per unit, new!
I have not seen any reports as to the existing tenants on the main
floor of the building, vacating their leased areas, therefore, based
on that, there would be no new tenants of the main level. The super
structure is being left in place and not changing substantially the
esthetics value and /or character of the property. It would appear
that based on the amount of hou*ing units being provided, that the
request for tax increment funds and the parking lot would be approximately
half of what a new unit could be built for. Without tax increment
financing all the new generated tax dollars would go for the operations
of the city, county, and school district # 423.
The fact of the upper levels of the Hutch Hotel being shut down should
have no bearing on these financing requests. The building was purchased
accordingly and Mr. Fay choose not to maintain the building, to meet
the standards as established.
As reported the project has previously been approved by the Hutchinson
Community Development Corporation and the Hutchinson Redevelopment
Authority without having provided a total disclosure as to how the
project and financing would affect the tax payers of Hutchinson. With
information reported in the Hutchinson Leader, I don't think it's
proper to use the Hutchinson city name without a disclosure as to the
liabilities and costs incurred by the city which may affect the tax
payers. This is improper and unjust.
Why is the Hutchinson Housing and Redevelopment Authority becoming
involved to privately owned ventures? With a management rate of
$ 250.00 per unit, per year or a total of (19 x 250) - $ 4,750.00, who
• will benefit?
` Page 2
At a estimated value of approximately $ 30,000.00 per living rental
unit including the value of the parking lot and the tax increment
funds, how much more or less than $ 40,000.00 per year would the tax
payers be contributing to Frank Fay or his heirs or assigns? Yes,
could this be approximately $ 40,000.00 per year or yes, could this
be a total benefit of $ 800,000.00 to Frank Fay?
Why is it such that the tax payers have to request this type of
information when it should be provided total and complete through
staff and /or organizations approving a project requesting tax dollars.
I am not familiar with Mr. Fay supporting the renovation of the Old
Armory or the development of the Hutchinson Mall for IRB bonds, how
can he now justify the request he has made?
With information provided, the expansion of the Hutch Hotel that
is being proposed does not include for a competitive bid, therefore,
profit costs, etc., are at the discretion of those that develope it.
In my judgment, what is being requested is a request of the tax payers
to subsidize a project which is already owned by the party associated
with the development.
To manage and subsidize a project for Frank Fay, who in my opinion,
is a clever speculator, not a developer, is unjust to those who
have developed and manage their own property at their own expense.

Enclosed is a copy of the Advertisement For Bids on the above project.
The council authorized proceeding with the Design Alternate No. 2
(earth covered) per Marlow Priebe's letter of January 4, 1985.
I am planning to attend the March 26 council meeting to review the
project and answer any questions. The plans have been reviewed with
the Department of Health and tentative approval has been received
pending receipt of the final plan and specification.
Based upon obtaining council's authorization Tuesday evening to received
bids on April 18, 1985, the repaired reservoir could be returned to full
service by June 17, 1985. This assumption is based upon a Contract
Award at the April 23 council meeting and issuance of a Notice to
Proceed by May 3. If the above dates cannot be met, it is our
recommendation that bids be delayed until after the summer peak.
A copy of the enclosed ad should be placed in your legal papers. We will
send a copy to the Construction Bulletin.

SUBJECT: Three -Year Plan for Tennis Court Maintenance
------------------------ - - - - --
The School District and City have jointly repaired the tennis courts in
past years (50/50 basis).
• Supt. Glenn Matejka has informed me that the repair should be scheduled
on an annual basis; therefore, he has recommended the attached work. See
letter of March 14, 1985 and attached cost estimate.
The total cost of 1985 would be $7,865, and the City's portion (50 %) would
be $3,932.50.
Both entities (City and School) are placing this item on their March 26
agenda.
The 1985 repair cost would need to come from the 1985 contingency account
inasmuch as the repair was not anticipated at budget time 1984. Ken Mer-
rill reports the contingency account has a current unencumbered amount of
$48,000.

Enclosed, please find a quote from the McBroom Construction

this with the Hutch Tennis Association and recommend accepting
the quote as outlined in the letter.
• I assume from our previous discussion that the City would also
budget and pay for 508 of the cost for each of the years as
listed in the quote letter with the school district billing
the City upon completion of the work. If this meets with your
approval, an early response would be appreciated.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Does the 3 year projection fit your budget ideas? We put down a 5 to 7
year playing surface on the tennis courts. Instead of the conventional
method of repairing net posts and fence posts that have been first heaved,
lsd,ich is removal of the posts, jack hammering the old concrete, and reinstall.
ing which is a very costly operation. We propose a much simpler and less
expensive solution which-is, pound the posts down with our power driver, re-
move what lip may remain, and touch up around the posts with concrete. We
feel that your new tile system should eliminate the past heaving. I hope this
proposal meets your approval. I will visit with you shortly.

POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM DATE March 14, 1985
•
TO Mayor and City Council
FROM Dean M. O'Borsky, Chief of Police
SUBJECT Parking on South Grade Road
I have the request for additional parking which I have interpreted as follows:
1. Request "No Parking" signs on south side of South Grade Road between Merrill
and Highway I5. (See attached)
2. Continue current "No Parking" zone on the north side of South Grade Road
westward to Merrill Street. (See attached)
3. The complainant also suggests that the boulevard in front of the Fitness
Center be curbed in to prohibit customers from parking there.
My response is as follows to the above requests:
1. On December I3, 1984 I wrote the Council requesting "No Parking" on the north
• side of South Grade Road. At that time I stated that I saw no reason to
prohibit parking on the south side of South Grade Road. No evidence has
been produced to convince me that circumstances have changed since then.
South Grade Road is a wide thoroughfare with plenty of room for traffic
to pass by even with cars parked on the south side. In addition it appears
to me that on- street parking there provides a convenience to patrons of the
stores in the Fitness building. I recommend that the request be denied.
2. I- originally requested that "No Parking" terminate 50 feet west of the
westernmost driveway of the Fitness Center. The reasoning was to provide
visibility for vehicles entering and leaving the Fitness Center lot. I
have personally viewed the location and can see no reason to change the
.original Council action. I recommend the request be denied.
3. To curb in a portion of boulevard would be an unnecessary precedent as well
as a needless expense. Personally I think that it would cause a situation
worse than currently exists. I think we should wait until the frost is
out to install permanent markers and enforce the "No Parking" ordinance
by issuing citations to cars parked there.

I think we should paint the curb yellow adjacent to the driveway into

M E M O R A N D U M
DATE: March 20, 1985
TO: Hutchinson City Council -
FROM: Hutchinson Planning Commission
SUBJECT: Variance as Requested by Harold Juul
Pursuant to Section 6.05, B3, of Zoning Ordinance No. 464, the Hutchinson
Planning Commission is hereby submitting its findings of fact and recom-
mendation with respect to the aforementioned request for a variance.
HISTORY
On March 1, 1985, Mr. Harold Juul submitted an application for a
variance to allow the construction of a duplex on a lot that has 8,712
square feet. The zoning ordinance requires 10,000 square feet for the
construction of a duplex in an R -2 zone. A public hearing was held at
the regular meeting of the Planning Commission on Tuesday, March 20,
• 1985. Mr. Bob Evans of 516 Main Street South was present to state that
he objected to development of the lot because of the water problems it
would cause for neighboring property owners. He further explained that
there was already a significant drainage problem in the area.
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The required application was submitted and the appropriate fee
paid.
2. Notices were mailed to the surrounding property owners as well as
published in the Hutchinson Leader on Thursday, March 7, 1985.
RECOMMENDATION
It is the recommendation of the Planning Commission that the afore-
mentioned request for a variance be rejected based on that fact that the
conditions for granting a variance as detailed in section 6.05 of the
Zoning Ordinance have not been shown.
Respectfully submitted,
Roland Ebent, Chairman

HUTCHINSON PLANNING INUTES FOR l QUR fAIF
TUESDAY, MARCH 9 COMMISSION 8 �C. ORM�7 rlo%I!
1. CALL TO ORDER
The regular meeting of the Hutchinson Planning Commission was called
to order by Chairman Roland Ebent at 7 :30 p.m., with the following
members present: Marlin Torgerson, Elsa Young, Don Erickson, Tom
Lykes Shu -Mei Hwang, and Chairman Ebent. Members absent: Larry
Romo. Also present: City Administrator Gary D. Plotz and City
Attorney James Schaefer.
2. MINUTES
The minutes of the regular meeting, dated Monday, February 18, 1985,
were approved as presented upon a motion by Mr. Erickson. Seconded
by Mr. Hwang, the motion carried unanimously.
3. PUBLIC HEARING
(a) CONSIDERATION OF VARIANCE REQUEST AS SUBMITTED BY HAROLD JUUL
Chairman Ebent opened the public hearing at 7:30 p.m. with the
reading of publication #3392 as,:published in the Hutchinson
Leader on Thursday, March 7, 1985. The request is for a
variance to allow the construction of a duplex on a lot that
has 8,712 square feet. The zoning ordinance requires 10,000
square feet for a duplex in an R -2 zone.
City Administrator Plotz explained that the staff had
recommended that the request be rejected on the basis that a
single family home could be built on the lot and there was no
hardship to the owner shown.
Mr. Robert Evans, of 516 Main Street South was present to
state he objected to the development of the lot because of the
water problems it would cause for neighboring property owners.
He further explained the existing water problem for his
neighbor;, Mrs. Dorothy Braun of 526 Main Street South, and
himself. Mr. Ebent explained that the question before the
Planning Commission was whether or not the proposed duplex
would fit on the lot. The drainage question would be addressed
for any building proposed for the lot when the building and
drainage plans were submitted to the building official.
Mr. Torgerson read from the State Planning Act, noting that a
variance cannot be granted unless undue hardship is shown. In
his opinion, hardship to the property owner has not been shown.
Dr. Lyke commented that a hardship cannot be created by the
purchase of the property. Mr. Erickson noted that this was not
a unique situation to the property in question. Mrs. Young
noted that the property could be used for a single family
1 q--- I
dwelling with no problem.
After discussion, Mrs. Young made a motion to close the
hearing. Seconded by Mr. Hwang, the motion carried unanimously
and the hearing was closed. Mr. Erickson made a motion to
recommend to City Council to deny the request as submitted,
based on the fact that the conditions for granting a variance
as detailed in Section 6.05*C of Zoning Ordinance #464, had not
been met. Seconded by Mr. Hwang, the motion carried
unanimously.
D. OLD BUSINESS
(a) DISCUSSION REGARDING SITE PLAN REQUIREMENTS FOR REZONING
City Administrator Plotz explained that at the last meeting a
formal presentation regarding site plan requirements and
alternatives to them was given by Mr. Gunnar Isberg. The
Planning Commission felt they wanted to review the options
another month before making a recommendation regarding site
plan requirements. Mr. Plotz further explained that at the
Minnesota Conference of Planners coming March 31 - April 2,
site plan requirements would be a topic of discussion. He
encouraged the Planning Commission members to attend, if
possible, and suggested that a recommendation be postponed
until after the conference to allow members and the City
Council members to have as much information regarding it as
possible. After discussion, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to
• continue discussion of site plan requirements until the next
meeting. Seconded by Dr. Lyke, the motion carried unanimously.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF CQMPREHENSI9E PLAN
City Administrator Plotz explained that a priority of the City
Council for 1985 was to review the Map that shows the long
range planning for the City. He suggested that the Planning
Commission review the Comprehensive Plan Map at the next
regular meeting of the Planning Commission, when the City
Engineer is present. It was the consensus of the Planning
Commission that the map be reviewed at the next regular
meeting.
5. NEW BUSINESS
(a) DISCUSSION OF LIGHTING FOR LIBRARY SQUARE PARK
` Mr. Erickson stated that with the expansion of the library and
the focus on Library Square as the "city square ", he would like
to have perimeter lighting for Library Square considered.
Discussion followed. Mr. Erickson made a motion to recommend
that the Park Board and the Library Board get together to
investigate the feasibility of lighting around Library Square
Park. Seconded by Mr. Torgerson, the motion carried
unanimously.

(b) PRESENTATION BY KEN GRUENHAGEN
Mr. Ken Gruenhagen was present representing a GH & S project in
apartment development. They are planning a 24 unit apartment
building to be located on the corner lot of South Grade Road
and Merrill Street. The lot has 459000 square feet and is
zoned R -3. They have made application with the Minnesota
Finance Agency. The apartments will not be subsidized - will
be of the deluxe variety -- the majority being two - bedroom
units with rent starting at $400 per month.
Mr. Gruenhagen explained that his reason for being before the
Planning Commission is that in the final stages of approval by
the MFA, the only remaining requirements are letters from the
Building Official and Fire Marshal stating the proposal meets
the City codes. Today, the building official had informed Mr.
Gruenhagen that the project did not meet the zoning ordinance,
as the requirements are 2200 square feet per unit and a 30'
setback. When the plans were done in July, they met City
specifications - 1800 square feet per unit, 25' front setbacks.
However, the City amended the ordinance in September. The
developers were unaware of the ordinance change. To continue
with the project as planned, a variance to allow the 1800
square feet and the 25' setback would be necessary.
Mr. Gruenhagen further explained that the problem lies in the
financing. To qualify for the financing they are requesting,
the land cost per building unit cannot be more than $3,000.
They have already purchased the land, so that price is fixed.
• By meeting the 2200 square feet requirement, the number of
units would have to be reduced to 20, which would make the
land cost per unit $3600.
Discussion followed. The question of hardship, uniqueness to
the property and whether or not granting the variance would
changed the character of the neighborhood were raised. After
discussion, Mr. Hwang stated that he felt the 301 setback could
be met, so a variance for that would not be necessary. He
further stated he would not be in favor of the variance to
allow 1800 square feet per dwelling unit, as the property could
be put to other use. Dr. Lyke stated that he would not be in
favor of a variance for the square footage. Mr. Erickson
stated that he went along with Mr. Hwang and Dr. Lyke. Mr.
Torgerson stated he, too, would have to object at this time.
Mr. Ebent stated that he felt that when an ordinance changed,
developers and builders should be notified. It was his opinion
that as the plans were begun before the ordinance was changed,
and due to the time and expense involved with new plans and
reapplication for financing, the variance should be granted.
Chairman Ebent stated that it was the consenus of the Planning
Commission, that at this time, a variance to reduce square
footage requirement per unit would be denied.
• 6. ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to adjourn
the meeting at 8:35 p.m. Seconded by Mrs. Young, the motion carried
unanimously and the meeting was adjourned.

On Tuesday, March 19, I met with representatives from Burns Manor, the
• hospital, the utilities, and HRA, regarding the proposal dated February 26,
1985 to investigate the feasibility of self - insurance for health benefits.
It was the unanimous recommendation that the entities pursue Phase I of the
Feasibility Study in the amount of $648. The entities would share in the
cost of this Phase I Feasibility Study in proportion with the number of
full -time employees. For your information, the hospital has approximately
100 full -time employees, Burns Manor 50 full -time employees, and HRA three
full -time employees. The only entity that will not be participating will
be the Hutchinson Utilities as they already have a quasi self- insurance pro-
gram based on a $500 deductible policy.
On behalf of Mavis Geier, Phil Graves, and Carol Haukos, as well as City
staff, we request your favorable approval of Phase I.

Subject: Estimate of costs to investigate feasibility and seek
public bids for a combined program of Group Health
Benefits for the City of Hutchinson, Hutchinson Community
Hospital, Burns Manor Municipal Nursing Home and Hutchinson
Municipal Utilities.
PHASE I
FEASIBILITY STUDY
Following are estimates of the costs that would be involved
to perform a feasibility study into the potential of a combined
program of Group Health Benefits for the above mentioned entities of
the City of Hutchinson. These are the steps that I believe would
have to be taken in order to most cost - effectively look at the
potential of such a combined program. Should the Council or the City
Administration have any suggestions or other ideas about the best way
to approach PHASE I, I would be happy to revise my cost estimates
accordingly.
I. Preparation of Informational Letter and
Brief Questionnaire to be sent to all the
above mentioned Entities--------------------- - - - - -- 1 hour
Note: This will include a request for a current
census of employees covered by the existing
Group Health Plan of each of the above
mentioned Entities.
II. Evaluation of Questionnaires mentioned
in I. above and preparation of an Agenda
for a meeting of representatives of all
the Entities--------------------------------- - - - - -- 3 hours
• Note: This will include preparing a Synopsis of
Current Plan Benefits of each of the
Entities to be mailed to each of the
Entities along with the Agenda and a brief
summary of the Questionnaire Responses.

Entities------------------------------------- - - - - -- 3 hours
Note: This would also involve a charge for travel
which is shown below.
IV. Attendance at City Council Meeting, if
needed--------------------------------------- - - - - -- 1 hour
Note: It would be at the City Council's
discretion as to whether a report of the
results of PHASE I at a City Council
Meeting is necessary. If so, this would
incur an additional charge for travel which
is shown below.
Estimated Total Hours------------------------ - - - - -- 8 hours
V. Additional Charges:
1. Mileage - Two round trips to Hutchinson
anticipated.
336 miles X $ .50 per mile------------- - - - - -- $ 168.00
•
Summary:
•
Note: This mileage charge includes the cost of
my time spent traveling so no additional
hourly rate charge will be made for
travel time. The two trips would only
be charged if they actually became
necessary. If the City Council does not
feel it is necessary for me to attend a
meeting to discuss the results of
PHASE I, then one trip- charge would be
eliminated.

time for this endeavor as much of the
ground work will have been completed under
PHASE I above.
II. Answering Bidders Questions. (Preparing
Addendums to be sent to all bidders) --------- - - - - -- 3 hours
III. Review of Bids, eceived---------------------- - - - - -- 8 hours
Note: This would include phone contact with some
of the bidders, if needed for
clarification.
IV. Attendance at City Council Meeting----------- - - - - -- 2 hours
Note: Although I don't feel it is necessary for
me to attend the bid opening, it may be
advisable for me to attend the City Council
Meeting at which a decision is made in case
any of the City Council Members have
questions regarding my recommendations. It
may be advisable for this to be a combined
meeting with representatives of each of the
Entities present to facilitate an expedient
decision.
V. Ordering Policies and Reviewing new

The estimates for hourly time above are just that;
estimates. For all charges other than entering data and printing
specifications, the charges made would be for actual time spent and
actual mileage traveled. The estimates shown above will not be
exceeded without discussion and prior approval from the City of
Hutchinson. I tried to be realistic in these estimates so, barring
any unforseen problems, you can go through the bidding process and, I
believe, achieve maximum results for the estimated cost of
$ 2,472.00.
I ill await the City Council's decision as to whether or
not to pr c ed. Thank ou for allowing me to present this proposal.

POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
DATE March 18, 1985
TO Gary Plotz, City Administrator
FROM Dean M. O'Borskv. Chief of Police gtoo� QR Ynl ►n
SUBJECT Cameo Cleaners
I talked to Mr. Pat Smith regarding the complaints that had been made
about him allowing his dog to defecate on the property of Mr. William Janousek.
I also told him that Mr. Janousek had complained that his dog had no license.
Mr. Smith told me that he was unaware of the problem with the feces on Mr.
Janousek's property and would take immediate steps to correct the problem
and see to it that the problem would not continue in the future. He also
stated that his dog did have a license and that he did obey the lease laws of
the City. Mr. Smith seemed cooperative and anxious to settle this matter
equitably.
• I talked with Mr. William Janousek and asked Mr. Janousek if he wished to
press charges by signing a complaint against Mr. Smith. Mr. Janousek said
that he did not wish to press charges and only wished to have the situation
cleaned up. He seemed to be satisfied that the efforts that Mr. Smith said
that he would make would be sufficient but advised that he would consider
contacting the Federal Government should Mr. Smith not continue to comply.

RE: Hutchinson Police Department
Dear Mayor Stearns:
fn e,-t( 4 ell,
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
As Hutchinson's Superintendent of Schools, I am extremely
pleased with the efforts, speed, and results of the
Hutchinson Police Department in solving the recent school
break -ins. It is unfortunate that our community youth are
involved in these activities, but better corrected now than
. having the youth become involved in more serious crimes
later on.
It has been a relief to me to have the Hutchinson Police
Department's cooperation in school district matters during
the past several years that I have been in this communty. I
send to you my sincere appreciation and thanks for their
excellent efforts and results.
Please express my thanks and appreciation to the Chief and
his staff.
Sincerely,
Glenn M tejka

RE: Tax Increment Amendment for Rehabilitation
of Hutchinson Hotel
Dear Pam:
On behalf of Gene Reddemann, County Executive Secretary, I understand you
are in charge of organizing the county agenda.
The City of Hutchinson is required by law to consult with the County Board and
School District to review "input" on any tax increment amendments. The attached
amendment is to assist with the land write -down for rehabilitation of the Hutch-
inson Hotel. The rehabilitation of the hotel is known as Parkview Plaza.
Earlier this month I had discussed the need to meet with the County Board with
Commissioner Chairman Lawrence Wendorff. Because of time constraints with the
March'12 County Board meeting, and subsequent meeting with the townships, we
concluded that the March 26 meeting would be the best.
Please confirm receiving this request to appear and acknowledge your receiv-
ing our notice of publication that is enclosed. The public hearing on this
project has been continued to March 26, 19859 8:00 P.M., City Council Chambers,
City Hall in Hutchinson.
Sincerely,
CITY OF HUTCHINSON

City Manager

Maplewood, MN 55109
RE: Need fpr Industrial Revenue Bond (IRB)
Financing - City of Hutchinson
Dear Mr. Evans:
The City of Hutchinson will be exceeding its IRB entitlement. Specifically, the
City of Hutchinson has an allocation of $2,512,000, and we are already exceeding
this figure by $163,000; based on "inducement" resolutions already approved and
another scheduled for March 26, 1985.
The City of Hutchinson requests consideration by the Maplewood City Council for
assistance in utilizing a portion of your community's entitlement. The City ap-
pears to have an immediate need for $163,000, plus an additional $1,200,000 with-
in the next couple months for another anticipated project.
In terms of priorities to any other communities requesting similar allotment
throughout the state, please place the City of Hutchinson at the top of your list.
We would be very grateful if you would inform your City Council of this request,
therefore providing the opportunity for discussion.
The Hutchinson City Council is anticipated to vote on the IRB inducement resolu-
tion on March 26, 1985, that would push the city over the limit by $163,000.
Could you please write or contact me at (612) 587 -5600 (home phone) before March
26, 1985.
Sincerely,
CITY OF HUT,(CH%INSONN

UPDATE
March 12, 1985 CITY OF HUTCHINSON ISSUE NO. 8
RESPONSE FROM MN /DOT ON SIGNAL AT T.H. 7 AND SCHOOL ROAD
The MN /DOT has determined a signal is warranted; however, Ken Madole, District Engineer,
does not feel it will solve the problem.
If the city wants to proceed with a temporary signal, the State is willing to pay one -
half the cost. Mr. Madole is estimating the construction cost at $40,000 - 50,000.
FRANK FAY PROJECT - PARKVIEW PLAZA
The city auditors are currently reviewing the financial statements of Frank Fay.
I have contacted Larry Wendorff regarding the status of the tax increment amendment. He
h , uggested the County Board meeting of March 26 for discussing the amendment. Like -
w I have contacted School Superintendent Matejka as to reviewing the amendment with
the School Board.
FEASIBILITY OF MOTEL PROPOSALS
The city's auditing firm, Charles Bailly & Company, has responded favorably with recom-
mended conditions.
John Bernhagen, Executive Director of Community Development Corporation, will make a pre-
sentation on the recommendations of the Community Development Corporation.
CED /DONOHUE
There has been excellent follow -up by CED /Donohue since being selected as the engineer-
ing firm on the wastewater treatment plant.
Specifically, Randy, Ken and I will be meeting with PCA on March 21 at 9:00 A.M. in Rose-
ville.
PRE - TREATMENT CONTRACT WITH PURE CULTURE
I e been in contact with Jack Harrison, Environmental Engineer, from the Hercules Corp.,
pa nt company of Pure Culture.
-OVER-
At this time Hercules has some concerns about any future sewer charges as a result of
the new plant. Therefore, the company has not returned the pre- treatment contract. I
have advised CED and Marlow Priebe of the problem, and this is one of the issues we will
be discussing with MPCA on March 21.
WASTEWATER PLANT SITE ACOUISITION
Attached is a letter from CED stating the requirement for an appraisal for the proposed
wastewater treatment plant.
I contacted the acquisition specialist at MPCA, Linda Prail, regarding the requirements.
She stated the appraisal is mandatory and, furthermore, recommends that it be a "certi-
fied appraisal" inasmuch as the project will be audited after completion.
At this time the city should authorize the appraisal.
GARAGE AT 613 SECOND AVENUE S.E.
Ralph Neumann has requested authorization to move the remaining garage at 613 Second Ave-
nue S.E. (city property) to the street department property. The bidders on the existing
house located at 613 Second Avenue S.E. were not interested in the garage, as per A §ends
item 8-a.

Re: City of Hutchinson
Wastewater Treatment Plant
Land Acquisition Assistance
EPA Grant No. C271363 -02
Dear Gary:
Pursuant to our recent conversation we are pleased to
provide you with some backup information to assist you
in the purchase of land for the wastewater treatment
plant. Specifically, the MPCA is going
the City document its comp lance with Public Law 91fi46
whether or not-the -Tana— urchase - -is federal or state
un a In a ition, MPCA is pushing to have this
03 c"�'Umentation completed prior to granting Step 2
advanced allowances. Therefore, expediting the pur-
chase of the land at this time is wise.
Enclosed with this letter are copies of the following
information:
1. MPCA's internal land acquisition review check
list.
2. MPCA's narrative discussing land acquisition pro-
cedures.
3. USEPA's example narrative regarding Public Law 91-
646.
4. USEPA's regulations on land acquisition proce-
dures.
5. USEPA's handbook of guidance on land acquisition
procedures.
It is important to initially review items 1 through 3
above to understand what USEPA and MPCA are looking
for. Item No. 3 provides an ideal acquisition descrip-
tion in narrative form and has been accepted as the
normal procedure. Items 4 and 5 are provided to allow
the City to have adequate library of available informa-
tion regarding acquisition rules and regulations.
Should you have any further questions, do not hesitate
to contact me.
Very truly yours,
