Seppelt Agenda Item Type: Presenter: Miles R. Seppelt Reviewed by Staff ❑ New Business Time Requested (Minutes): 5 License Contingency N/A Attachments: Yes BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM: For consideration by the City Council is a revised Development Agreement with GC Real Estate, the developer of The Landing apartment project. The purpose would be to increase the amount of TIF provided for this project. While excavating the site to construct footings and foundations for the new 81-unit apartment building, it was discovered that much more extensive soil corrections were needed than first thought. Originally it was projected that $332,000 in soil corrections were needed. By the time all needed soil corrections were done the cost had risen by an additional $263,563. Given the city's desire to provide a development ready site, and that a housing TIF District was established to make the project financially feasible, the developer is requesting that additional tax increment financing be provided in the amount of $263,563 to cover these unexpected costs. This would increase the duration of TI F payments from 16 years to approximately 21.5 years. ATTACHED for your review please find: (1) Request letter from GC Real Estate; (2) geotechnical report and invoices to substantiate the need; (3) revised development agreement; (4) resolution. The EDA Finance Team and EDA Board of Directors have both reviewed the documentation provided and agree the request is reasonable. They are recommending approval. Staff will be on hand at the council meeting to provide additional information and answer any questions you may have. In the meantime, if you have any questions or need additional information, please give me a call anytime at 234-4223.

Seppelt Economic Development Director City of Hutchinson RE: The Landing Apartment Development Financial Assistance Due to Unexpected Soil Correction Needs Hello Miles, This letter is our formal request as the developer for financial assistance from the City of Hutchinson in the amount of $263,563.37 for unknown soil correction needs to develop the land located at 126 Franklin Street NW, Hutchinson, Minnesota. We have previously provided all supporting documentation to you of the unknown soil condition issues that we discovered. Our ownership team has met and discussed possible methods for reimbursement. Despite the fact that we have had to incur this cost today, we are requesting additional TIF funds, which in turn extend the term of the City's TIF note. Even though we would prefer immediate reimbursement, we assume that extending the TIF note term is a more feasible option for the City. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or need further information at this time. Thank you, Andy Martin Managing Member Hutchinson —The Landing, LLC P.O.

We recommend that full-time observation and testing services be provided by a Geotechnical Engineer/Technician during stripping of the topsoil, fill and buried swamp deposit soils with observation of all exposed soils prior to placing new fill or concrete. Details of our recommendations for site preparation are as follows. 6.2 Building Grading 6.2.1 Excavation To prepare the building area for foundation and slab support, we recommend complete excavation of the fill, topsoil, buried swamp and any soft clayey soils, thereby exposing the naturally deposited alluvial or till soils. Any remnants or utilities from the previous residences or structures at the site should also be completely removed. This would result in excavation depths at the boring locations as shown in Table 6.2.1. Table 6.2.1 — Recommended Excavation Depths Boring Location Surface Elevation (ft) Excavation Depth (ft) Approximate Excavation Elevation (ft) SB-01 1043.6 3 10401/2 SB-02 1043.0 4 1039 S B-03 1044.0 2 1042 SB-04 1043.6 8 10351/2 SB-05 1044.6 5 10391/2 SB-06 1045.5 2 10431/2 SB-07 1046.6 4 10421/2 SB-08 1047.4 2 10451/2 *Rounded to the nearest % foot. After excavation, we recommend the sands and silty sands in the excavation bottoms be thoroughly surface compacted with a large, self-propelled vibratory roller having a minimum drum diameter of 3'/2 feet. The roller should make at least 5 passes over the entire excavation bottom in one direction. This process should then be repeated in the perpendicular direction. In addition, the soils in the bottoms of the foundation excavations should also be thoroughly surface compacted with hand operated vibratory compaction equipment, such as a larger plate compactor or remote -controlled vibratory compactor. If unsuitable soils are encountered in foundation excavations, additional excavation may be needed.

Forcier, Mayor Matthew Jaunich, City Administrator RA HUTCHINSON CITY COUNCIL HUTCHINSON Request for Board Action A CITY ON PURPOSE. Approve/Deny First Reading of Ordinance 26-872 - An Ordinance Amending Agenda Item: Chapter 116 of the City Code relating to the City's Lodging Tax Department: Administration LICENSE SECTION Meeting Date: 1/27/2026 Application Complete N/A 0 Contact: Matt Jaunich Agenda Item Type: Presenter: Matt Jaunich Reviewed by Staff New Business Time Requested (Minutes): 5 License Contingency N/A Attachments: Yes BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM: The City has had a lodging tax in place since an ordinance was adopted in February of 1989. The last time the ordinance was updated was in 2004. Since that time, the use of short-term rentals (VRBO's, airBNB's, etc.) have become more common. While short-term rentals do need to register with our rental program, they are currently not included in the City's lodging tax. This ordinance would change that to include short-term rentals in the collection of our lodging tax. Our records indicate there are 6 properties/units within the community that are used for short-term rentals. With only 6 properties/units, revenue collection will not be significant. However, they will now be on par with the requirements of what campgrounds and hotels/motels need to do within the community. Collection would begin May 1. Just a reminder, 95% of the revenue collected gets passed along to the Hutchinson Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB). The CVB is supportive of this ordinance.

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of Hutchinson, that Chapter 116 of the City Code is hereby amended and replaced to read as follows: GENERALPROCEDURES § 116.01 PURPOSE OF TAX. In order to increase commerce and to provide for a vibrant City atmosphere that will attract tourism and convention business to the City, it is essential that the City be marketed and promoted by a local convention and visitors bureau. § 116.0462 DEFINITIONS. For the purpose of this chapter, the following definitions shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning. LODGER. The person obtaining lodging from an operator. LODGING. The furnishing for consideration of lodging by a hotel, motel, bed and breakfast, short-term residential rental, resorts or public or private campground, except where that LODGING shall be for a continuous period of 30 days or more to the same lodger(s) according to section 116.16 (c) below. The furnishing of rooms owned by religious, educational or non- profit organizations for self -sponsored activities shall not constitute LODGING for purposes of this program. 1 OPERATOR. The person who is the proprietor of the lodging facility, whether in the capacity of owner, lessee, sublessee, licensee or any other capacity. RENT. The total consideration valued in money charged for the lodging whether paid in money or otherwise, but shall not include any charges for services rendered in connection with furnishing lodging other than the room charge itself. SHORT-TERM RESIDENTIAL RENTAL. A rental dwelling or rental dwelling unit that is offered to transient guests for a period of less than 30 consecutive days. VRBO's, AirBNB, HomeAway and other vacation rentals are considered short-term home rentals. § 116.023 IMPOSITION OF TAX. Pursuant to M.S. § 469.190, as it may be amended from time to time, a tax is imposed on the rent charged by an operator for providing lodging to any person. A tax of 3% shall be imposed. The tax collected by the operator shall be extinguished only by payment to the city. In no case shall the tax imposed by this section upon an operator exceed the amount of tax which the operator is authorized and required by this program to collect from a lodger. COLLECTION AND PAYMENT PROCEDURES § 116.15 COLLECTION. Each operator shall collect the tax imposed by this program at the time the rent is paid. The tax collections shall be deemed to be held in trust by the operator for the city. The amount of tax shall be separately stated from the rent charged for the lodging and those persons paying the tax shall receive a receipt of payment from the operator. § 116.16 EXCEPTIONS AND EXEMPTIONS. (A) Exceptions. No tax shall be imposed on rent for lodging paid by any officer or employee of a foreign government who is exempt by reason of express provisions of federal law or international treaty. (B) Exemptions. An exemption shall be granted to any person as to whom or whose occupancy it is beyond the power of the city to tax. No exemption shall be granted, except upon a claim therefore made at the time the rent is collected, and this claim shall be made in writing and under penalty of perjury on forms provided by the city. All these claims shall be forwarded to the city when the returns and collections are submitted as required by this chapter. (C) The lodging tax shall not apply to the furnishing for consideration of lodging for a continuous period of thirty (30) days or more to the same lodger under an enforceable written agreement that may not be terminated without prior notice and including accommodations intermediary services provided in connection with other services. § 116.17 ADVERTISING NO TAX PROHIBITED. 2 It is unlawful for any operator to advertise or hold out or state to the public or any customer, directly or indirectly, that the tax or any part thereof will be assumed or absorbed by the operator, or that it will not be added to the rent or that, if added, it or any part thereof will be refunded. § 116.18 PAYMENT; RETURN SUBMISSION. (A) The taxes imposed by this program shall be paid monthly by the operator to the city not later than 20 days after the end of the month in which the taxes were collected. At the time of payment, the operator shall submit a return upon those forms and containing that information as the City Finance Officer may require. The return shall contain the following minimum information: (1) The total amount of rent collected for lodging during the period covered by the return; (2) The total amount of exceptions and exemptions; (3) The amount of tax required to be collected and due for the period; (4) The signature of the person filing the return or that of his or her agent duly authorized in writing; (5) The period covered by the return; and (6) The amount of uncollectible rental charges subject to the lodging tax. (6) The operator may offset against the taxes payable with respect to any reporting period, the amount of taxes imposed by this program previously paid as a result of any transaction, the consideration for which became uncollectible during that reporting period, but only in proportion to the portion of the consideration which became uncollectible. § 116.19 EXAMINATION OF RETURN; ADJUSTMENTS. The City Finance Officer shall, after a return is filed, examine the same and make any investigation or examination of the records and accounts of the person making the return deemed necessary for determining its correctness. The tax computed on the basis of this examination shall be the tax to be paid. If the tax due is found to be greater than that paid, the excess shall be paid to the city within ten days after receipt of a notice thereof given either personally or sent by registered mail to the address shown on the return. If the tax paid is greater than the tax found to be due, the excess shall be refunded to the person who paid the tax to the city within ten days after determination of the refund. § 116.20 REFUNDS. Any person may apply to the City Finance Officer for a refund of taxes paid in excess of the amount legally due for that period, provided that no application for a refund shall be considered unless filed within one year after that tax was paid, or within one year from the filing of the return, whichever period is the longer. The Finance Officer shall examine the claim and make and file written findings thereon denying or allowing the claim in whole or in part and shall mail a notice thereof by registered mail to the person at the address stated upon the return. If the claim is allowed in whole or in part, the Finance Officer shall credit the amount of the allowance 3 against any taxes due under this program from the claimant, and the balance of the allowance, if any, shall be paid by the Finance Officer to the claimant. § 116.21 FAILURE TO FILE RETURN. (A) If any operator required by this program to file a return shall fail to do so within the time prescribed or shall make, willfully or otherwise, an incorrect, false or fraudulent return, the operator shall, upon written notice and demand, file that return or corrected return within five days of receipt of written notice and shall at the same time pay any tax due on the basis thereof. If the person shall fail to file the return or corrected return, the City Finance Officer shall make a return or corrected return for that person from that knowledge and information as the director can obtain, and assess a tax on the basis thereof, which tax (less any payments theretofore made on account of the tax for the taxable period covered by the return) shall be paid upon within five days of the receipt of written notice and demand for payment. Any thus described return or assessment made by the Finance Officer shall be prima facie correct and valid, and the person shall have the burden of establishing its incorrectness or invalidity in any action or proceeding with respect thereto. (B) If any portion of a tax imposed by this program, including penalties thereon, is not paid within 30 days after it is required to be paid, the city may institute legal action as may be necessary to recover the amount due plus interest, penalties and the cost and disbursements of any action. (C) Upon a showing of good cause, the Finance Officer may grant an operator one 30-day extension of time within which to file a return and make payment of taxes as required by this chapter; provided that, interest during this period of extension shall be added to the taxes due at the rate of 10% per annum. § 116.22 DELINQUENT PAYMENT; PENALTIES. (A) If any tax imposed by this chapter is not paid within the time herein specified for the payment, or any extension thereof, there shall be added thereto a specific penalty equal to 10% of the amount remaining unpaid. (B) In case of any failure to make and file a return within the time prescribed by this chapter, unless it is shown that this failure is not due to willful neglect, there shall be added to the tax, in addition to the 10% specific penalty provided in division (A) above, 10% if the failure is for not more than 30 days, with an additional 5% for each additional 30 days or fraction thereof during which failure continues, not exceeding 25% in the aggregate. If the penalty as computed does not exceed $10, a minimum penalty of $10 shall be assessed. The amount so added to any tax shall be collected at the same time and in the same manner and as a part of the tax unless the tax has been paid before the discovery of the negligence, in which case the amount so added shall be collected in the same manner as the tax. (C) If any person willfully fails to file any return or make any payment required by this chapter, or willfully files a false or fraudulent return or willfully attempts in any manner to evade or defeat this tax or payment thereof, there shall also be imposed as a penalty an amount equal to 50% of any tax (less amounts paid on the basis of the false or fraudulent return) found due 11 for the period to which that return related. The penalty imposed by this division (C) shall be collected as part of the tax, and shall be in addition to any other penalties provided by this chapter. (D) All payments received shall be credited first to penalties, next to interest, and then to the tax due. ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT § 116.35 ADMINISTRATION OF TAX. The City Finance Officer shall administer and enforce the assessment and collection of the taxes imposed by this chapter. The director shall cause to be prepared blank forms for the returns and other documents required by this chapter and shall distribute the same throughout the city and furnish them upon application; but failure to receive or secure them shall not relieve any person from any obligation required under this chapter. § 116.36 EXAMINATION OF RECORDS. The City Finance Officer may examine the books, papers and records of any operator in order to verify the accuracy of any return made, or if no return was made, to ascertain the tax as provided in this program. Every operator is directed and required to give to the Finance Officer the means, facilities and opportunity for the examinations and investigations as are hereby authorized. Operators are required to keep all records, including written agreements for lodging covered under section 116.16 (c), for at least three (3) years. § 116.37 VIOLATIONS. It is unlawful for any person to willfully fail to make a return required by this program, or to fail to pay the tax after written demand for payment, or to fail to remit the taxes collected or any penalty or interest imposed by this chapter after written demand for payment, or to refuse to permit the City Finance Officer to examine the books, records and papers under his or her control or to willfully make an incomplete, false or fraudulent return. § 116.38 DISPOSITION OF PROCEEDS. (A) The 95% proceeds obtained from the collection of taxes pursuant to this program shall be used in accordance with M.S. § 469.190, as the same may be amended from time to time, to fund a local convention and tourism bureau for the purpose of marketing and promoting the city as a tourist and convention center. The city may retain a maximum of 5% for administrative costs. (B) The city by and through an agreement, entitled 'Agreement for the Establishment of a Convention and Visitors Bureau Between the City and the Area Chamber of Commerce" (hereinafter "the agreement', with the Area Chamber of Commerce (hereinafter "Chamber of Commerce") hereby permits the Chamber of Commerce to create the Area Convention and Visitors Bureau (hereinafter "the CVB'�.

In connection therewith, the Chamber of Commerce hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless, defend the city and all its agents and employees thereof, from any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action of whatever nature or character arising out of or by reason of the execution or the performances of the services provided in accordance with this agreement, excepting therefrom City Administrator duties and city duties relating to the collection of taxes. (D) The CVB shall submit annual audited financial reports to the City Finance Officer. § 116.39 APPEALS.

ADOPTED BY THE HUTCHINSON CITY COUNCIL THIS 10T" DAY OF FEBRUARY 2026 Attest: Matthew Jaunich, City Administrator Gary T. Forcier, Mayor 7 RA HUTCHINSON CITY COUNCIL HUTCHINSON Request for Board Action A CITY ON PURPOSE. Consideration of Adopting Legislative Priorities for 2026 Agenda Item: Department: Administration LICENSE SECTION Meeting Date: 1/27/2026 Application Complete N/A Contact: Matt Jaunich Agenda Item Type: Presenter: Matt Jaunich Reviewed by Staff ❑ New Business Time Requested (Minutes): 10 License Contingency N/A Attachments: Yes BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM: With the 2026 Legislative session set to begin shortly, and as we have done in previous years, I would like the City Council to consider adopting a set of legislative priorities for the upcoming year. As in past years, this would be a document that we would use to communicate our legislative concerns/issues both to the public, and to our local legislators, and could be a document to use when you make your trips to the State Capitol. Included in your packet is a proposal for our legislative priorities for 2026. Many of these are carry overs from last year's list and include input from department directors. Noted changes are shown with a strike through or are noted in red. I'm looking for direction from the Council on what you would like to see set aside as legislative priorities for 2026. With that being said, this is really a document the City Council should be comfortable with. If you are comfortable with what has been put together, I would ask that you officially approve the list. If you would like to see some changes, you can table the item for us to make changes to the list. Please note that I have also included a list of priorities from the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities and the League of MN Cities. BOARD ACTION REQUESTED: Approval of Legislative Priorities for 2026 Fiscal Impact: Funding Source: FTE Impact: Budget Change: No 0 Included in current budget: No PROJECT SECTION: Total Project Cost: Total City Cost: Funding Source: N/A Remaining Cost: $ 0.00 Funding Source: N/A � r �� i ®� Office of the Mayor and City Council 111 Hassan Street SE Hutchinson, MN 55350-2522 A CITY ON PURPOSE, 320-234-5151/Fax 320-234-4240 2026 Legislative Priorities The City of Hutchinson has identified the following legislative priorities for 2026. The City generally supports the platforms of the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities and the League of Minnesota Cities and these policies are not generally re -stated here except where they have unusual relevance or purpose for the City of Hutchinson. To better assist our State legislative leaders, we have identified certain legislative priorities and general policy statements that are of specific impact and interest to the residents and business community of Hutchinson. These legislative priorities are intended to advocate on behalf of the City in a responsible manner that strengthens the partnership between our City and the State and brings forth our vision of an involved, progressive and innovative community that promotes our regional prominence while preserving our hometown character and delivering quality, cost- effective services. I. SALES TAX A. Sales Tax. The City supports legislation that would define what types of projects local governments are allowed to seek through voter approval, along with legislation that supports local voter approval without having to come to the Legislature. II. GENERAL GOVERNMENT B. Local Control. Over the past several years, the State Legislature has proposed several bills that attempted to eliminate or weaken local control. The City opposes any legislation that erodes local decision making and control, and believes that decision - making happens best at the local level. C. Local Government Aid. The City of Hutchinson supports restoring the annual inflation and population growth adjustments to the LGA appropriation. We also note than any changes in the LGA formula should be agreed upon by all city organizations before passage in the legislature. On top of that, we oppose artificial, non -formula -based limits on aid to individual or groups of cities and we would oppose any measure to reduce current LGA levels. D. Controlling the Sale of Strong Beer, Spirits and Wine. The City of Hutchinson opposes any legislation that would make it easier for the sale of strong beer, spirits, and wine in grocery and convenience stores. The City of Hutchinson supports existing regulations controlling the sale of alcohol to minimize the risks associated with youth access to alcohol, and believes allowing the sale of strong beer, spirits and wine in grocery and convenience stores could increase the public health risk of youth access to alcohol and alcohol -related motor vehicle accidents among youth. On top of this, the City of Hutchinson believes that the economic impact of allowing grocery and convenience stores to sell strong beer, spirits, and wine would be devastating impacting local taxpayers. F. Telecommunications. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that preserve local regulatory authority to manage publicly owned property, including rights -of -way and require private service providers to remove abandoned equipment from public rights -of - way. G. Annexation. The City supports legislation that strengthens the legislative findings and goals contained in Minnesota State Statute 414.01 that state a preference for urban development to be contained within incorporated municipalities that provide water and sewer services, and oppose legislation that imply that there is no functional difference in the roles of townships and cities. III. TRANSPORTATION A. Highway 22. The City of Hutchinson supports any legislation that provides for additional funding to make improvements to Highway 22 between Highway 212 and Highway 15. In particular, we support funding to make Highway 22 a four -lane highway connecting Hutchinson to Highway 212. B. Highway 15. The City of Hutchinson supports any legislation that provides for additional funding to make improvements to Highway 15 between Interstate 90 and 94. In particular, we support funding to provide additional passing lanes on Highway 15 from TH 7 to I-94. C. Highway 7. The City of Hutchinson supports any legislation that provides for additional funding to increase safety measures on Highway 7 east of Hutchinson. In particular, we support funding to provide an additional bypass lane adjacent to the Crow River Winery. D. Transportation Funding. The City of Hutchinson supports a comprehensive transportation plan with appropriate long-term funding. We also support funding for Corridors of Commerce and city streets independent of a comprehensive transportation package. In regards to the Corridors of Commerce, we support the current 50-50 split between Greater Minnesota and the metro area, and we reject a scoring system that allows more points for corridors that run through the metro area over those that connect Greater Minnesota cities. E. Airport Legislation. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that clearly indicates maintenance and operation of an airport is deemed an essential public service; clarifies when state airport funds can be used for airport planning; allows for the approval of obstructions, without variance, if FAA analysis deems the obstruction non -hazardous; and updates to Airport zoning that deal with boundary limits, the integration of airport zoning with local planning/zoning, allows for flexibility to enact airport zoning, and aligns the process with the municipal planning process requirements. IV. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT A. Increased Funding. The City of Hutchinson supports increased funding for state programs to assist local economic development such as the Greater MN Business Development Infrastructure (BDPI) grant program, MN Investment Fund, Job Creation 2 Fund, Redevelopment Grant Program, and the Demolition Loan Program. B. Skilled Workforce. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that enhances skilled workforce development throughout the State. C. Child Care. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that increases funding to DEED's Child Care Economic Development Grants, along with funding for programs with proven track records of stabilizing and growing the number of child care slots in Hutchinson. V. HOUSING A. General. The city of Hutchinson supports legislation that will create and save housing and enhances workforce housing, including additional funding for Greater Minnesota Workforce Housing, along with legislation that will provide a comprehensive approach to addressing housing availability and affordability so that all can have a safe and secure place to call home. B. Affordability. Cost continues to be the greatest burden to housing growth in Hutchinson. The city of Hutchinson supports legislation that addresses this burden by addressing the rising costs of labor, materials, financing, and infrastructure. C. Local Control. The city of Hutchinson is best positioned to determine how to match our land use and zoning to meet housing challenges. During the past couple of legislative sessions, several bills were introduced that sought to addressing housing costs by stripping cities of their authority to develop zoning codes and land use guidance. The proposals would have required cities to increase the density of housing on most city lots, restricted or removed the ability of cities to control the amount of parking associated with residential and commercial development, and limited or removed cities' ability to control building height, setbacks, minimum lot size and other features of housing units, among other changes. The city of Hutchinson believes this "one -size -fits -all" does nothing to impact housing costs in Hutchinson and opposes legislation of the such that strips local control. VI. HEALTH AND RECREATION A. Dakota Rail Trail. The City of Hutchinson supports any legislation that provides funding to fully extend the remaining Dakota Rail Trail from eastern McLeod County to the City of Hutchinson. B. Parks & Trails Legacy Funding. The City of Hutchinson supports the current formula that allocates 20% of the Parks and Trails Legacy funding to greater Minnesota and oppose changes that would reduce that share. C. Active Living and Healthy Communities. The City of Hutchinson supports increased public access to recreation opportunities throughout Minnesota. Parks and recreation provide five leading strategies to engage the public in active lifestyles: access, opportunities, affordability, inclusive nature, and connections to nature. The City of Hutchinson supports the Minnesota Statewide Health Improvement Plan and encourages additional funding for public health agencies in partnership with parks and recreation departments. D. Natural Resources. The city of Hutchinson recognizes that parks, habitat, open space, and clean water provide critical elements of natural resource protection. Parks not only preserve these resources, they often provide outdoor recreation opportunities. The City of Hutchinson supports the protection of natural resources and the use of appropriate control methods to protect them. Funding provided by the state will assist in the management of these important resources. VII. PUBLIC SAFETY A. Forfeiture Preservation Act. The city of Hutchinson supports legislation that preserves city's police departments ability to utilize the federal forfeiture sharing program, maintains a reasonable cash threshold that protects communities from ongoing drug trafficking and keeps habitual drunken drivers off of our roads. B. Permit to Purchase Fees. The city of Hutchinson supports legislation that would allow local police departments to charge a reasonable fee for processing permit to purchase applications. VIII. ENVIRONMENT A. Water Quality Regulation. The City of Hutchinson states that water quality regulations, permits, and other restrictions affecting cities must be grounded in solid peer reviewed science and must be established in a manner that respects the due process rights of cities and other interested stakeholders. B. Labeling. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that requires manufacturers of consumer products, including flushable wipes that could otherwise cause environmental harm and/or damage wastewater infrastructure to label their products with appropriate usage and disposal information. C. Funding for Hutchinson Lakes/River Basin Improvements. While the city of Hutchinson appreciates bonding efforts to support our Lakes and River Basin Improvement project, it's important to reiterate that this is a phased project with additional future bonding needs. The city of Hutchinson supports any additional legislation that provides funding to make improvements to the water quality, habitat, and recreation possibilities of Hutchinson's lakes and river basins both within and surrounding the community. D. Permitting for Wastewater Plants. The city supports legislation that would provide the same regulatory certainty for cities currently paying off debt on previously required wastewater plant construction to meet effluent limits as was provided for with new and future plant construction in state statute 115.455, which was adopted in 2018. E. Recycling and Composting Programs. The city of Hutchinson supports any legislation that continues to make funding available annually to further assist in expanding and improving recycling and composting programs and facilities in Greater Minnesota. F. PFAS. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that limits the financial impacts on municipal water and wastewater plants for the treatment and other costs associated with managing PFAS. IX. OTHER A. Civil Air Patrol (CAP) Training Facility. The city of Hutchinson supports any additional funding efforts by the legislature to support the building of a training facility at Butler Field that would serve the State of Minnesota and surrounding states.

N HUTCHINSON CITY COUNCIL HUTCHINSON Request for Board Action A UTY ON PLFRPOSE. Cancel Balance of PO #230; Approve PO #285 to Direct Plastics Agenda Item: Department: Compost LICENSE SECTION Meeting Date: 1/27/2026 Application Complete N/A Contact: Andy Kosek Agenda Item Type: Presenter: Reviewed by Staff ❑ Consent Agenda Time Requested (Minutes): License Contingency N/A Attachments: Yes BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM: At its July 22nd, 2025 meeting, Council approved the purchase of polyethylene bag film from Salerno Packaging in the amount of $116,855.00, which became PO #230. To date, Salerno has under performed and has only supplied Creekside with a little over half of the film ordered. Product received has been paid for. Typical lead times for bag film orders are 6-8 weeks, Salerno stated a mid -October 2025 delivery date at the time of order. After several recent attempts to receive updates from Salerno, they had become unresponsive. This past Friday, 1/23/26, they finally responded, however, they did not provide an acceptable delivery guarantee for the remaining items. Staff does not feel comfortable with continuing to do business with them as they have been continuously delaying shipments. To ensure Creekside has bag film in stock for the upcoming spring season, staff will be canceling the remaining balance of PO #230 to Salerno Packaging. In exchange, staff intends to then award the remaining balance of products needed to Direct Plastics, whom provided the second lowest quote initially back in 2025. Direct Plastics had recently re -quoted the remaining items and has actually lowered their price from their initial quote making this change a little easier to decide. Direct Plastics' quote for the remaining items totals $53,441.10. Had Salerno fulfilled their obligations, their total for the remaining items would have been $47,705.00. Creekside has ordered numerous times from Direct Plastics in the past and has had nothing but positive experiences with their products and service.
