RE: Perpetual Care Funding for activities at Oakland Cemetery
DATE: 11/30/1999
cc: John Rodebag, Dir. of Fmgmeenng /Public Works; Flovd Groehler, Cemetery Supervisor.
PERPETUAL CARE FUNDING PROPOSAL
11 BUILDING PROJE
Oakland Cemetery requests Perpetual Care funding of up to 365,000 for a building project at the Cemetery
This project: 1) Eliminates three small sheds and an outhouse currently on the site
2) Centralizes all cemetery operations, tools and eqwpment at one site.
3) Allows development of property occupied by the sheds. (Current value = +/- $60,000)
Once access to the funds is approved, construction will begirt this winter and be completed next summer.
2) COLummmM
Cremations are an increasingly preferred option for funeral services. In response to this trend, Oakland
Cemetery requests Perpetual Care funding of up to $10,000 for installation of a columbarium.
A columbarium is an aboveground, granite -faced memorial for cremations. Columbariums are an alternative to
in- ground intermens.
Columbariutns can represent cost savings to consumer and are proving to be successful in several Minnesota
cemeteries.
Once access to Perpetual Care funds is approved, the columbarium will be ordered this winter, with final
installation taking place nest spring.
3) p PETT AL- CARE FUND ACTIVITY
Considering the current balance, anticipated contributions and earnings, the Perpetual Care Fund balance will
remain well within statutory limits and be adequate for Oakland Cemetery.
Expenditures for buildings and columbariums are appropriate for the Perpetual Care Fund, as indicated by
appropriate statutes.

Dear Ms. Wischnacic
We are pleased to present this proposal to you to update your Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer
Plan. It is our understanding the construction of the Trunk Highway 22 by -pass and the
availability of developable land between Tnmk Highway 7 and the sewage treatment plant snake
it desirable to consider collector main alignments that might better serve this area. This proposal
is, specifically, to consider a revision of the North Trunk Highway 15 Drainage Basin to serve
part of the Trunk Highway 22 Drainage Basin with a collector main flowing directly to the
sewage treatment plant site. We are ass umin g that previous studies have ade addressed
the plant capacity and that is not a part of this work.
We have prepared a matrix showing the tasks, hours, cost and schedule for this work. Based on
this matrix we propose to perform these services for $15,160. This would be based on our
normal hourly rates. Please review this information. We are open to your suggestions regarding
the tasks and the level of effort required for them. You may call with your comments or
suggestions so we can discuss them.
Thank you for this opportunity to work with you. We appreciate it very much.

Dear Rick:
:12.912.2601 FAX
:: a as oor t a r:on
At this time we are working without a contract on the sewer project in Hutchinson. I provided John with
a proposal on September 17, which he verbally accepted_ to prepare a feasibility repots and draft EAW for
the Southeast Sanitary and Storm Sewer from a point near Jefferson Road to the back side of the Target
property west of TH 15. We have commenced work on that based on John's verbal authority but 1 did tell
him I would prepare a contract for the City's consideration. I am attaching two original documents for
your review and approval.
This is our standard contract and is set up for multiple projects. The base contract provides all of the
• general conditions and options to services and payment provisions. It is intended to provide a base work
from which we could spring to many different types of projects if needed. In this case the feasibility
report, design surveying, design and plan preparation, construction inspection, comprehensive plan update
and others could be covered under its general umbrella
As stated above, we are already working on the feasibility repordEAW. We are also working on an
update to the sanitary sewer comprehensive plan for Julie Wischnack. This contract would apply to both
of those and could apply to others down the road.
Each proiect or task can then be assigned by simpiv adding a supplementary letter. In the case of the
feasibility report/EAW, I have attached that letter for your review and approval. I have also submitted a
supplementary letter to Julie for the update of the sanitary sewer comprehensive plan.
Please review the contract and call me if there are concerns to be addressed. If there are no issues, please
have the originals executed and return one to me.
Sincereiv,

From: Julie Wischnack, AICP, Director of Planning/Zoning/Building
Date: December 7, 1999 — Meeting Date December 14, 1999
Re: Walgreens/Told Development — update since Planning Commission
Meeting
Staff was directed, by the Planning Commission, to discuss the access issues onto State
Highway 7 with MNDOT and the applicant. The applicant has submitted a letter
(December 2, 1999) explaining the developers position, after the meeting of November
30, 1999. MNDOT has also submitted a letter (December 7, 1999). The following
outlines the issues and the positions of the developer and MNDOT:
Request from Developer
NU DOT's Position
Full access for western entrance
MNDOT has agreed that the western access
can remain a full entrance, even after the
five lane reconstruction is complete
Eastern entrance remain after
They would issue a temporary access permit
reconstruction, unless determined
which would expire and eliminate the
"unsafe"
access when the reconstruction is completed
No comment in letter
In the future there would be no left turns
onto Third Street for North bound traffic on
Highway 15
The MNDOT letter further requests the City to pass a resolution supporting the Plan for
improvements to State Highway 7 and State Highway 15. If the Council chooses to
support the MNDOT recommendations in the letter, staff would revise the resolution
which has been provided in the packet.
Council Considerations
1. Preliminary Plat — Staff and the Planning Commission have recommended one
condition with the approval.
2. Conditional Use Permit — Staff and the Planning Commission have outlined the
recommended conditions for the use. The access issue has not been included.
Staff believes that MNDOT has compromised from their previous position of not
allowing two access points onto State Highway 7. MNDOT has also conceded
that the remaining access would be a "full" access, instead of right -in, right -out.
3. Resolution of Approval — If the Council chooses to approve the CUP and
Preliminary Plat, the resolution must reflect the Council's position regarding
access issues and MNDOT's request for support.

Transportation The site plan attempts to place two access points onto State Highway 7.
At the predevelopment meetings and meetings with MNDOT, one access
point, the most westerly, would be allowed. The reconstruction of State
Highway 7 will most likely have a median and the westerly entrance may
become right -in, right -out. The parking area is set back from main street
to accommodate a widening of State Highway 7 and the turn area onto
State Highway 15. There are also two entrances on the Third Avenue
side. The sidewalk area has been extended to meet the parking lot.
Parking The parking plan provides 103 parking spaces (4 of which are disabled).
The parking requirements are 5.5 spaces per 1,000 square feet. The
proposed building is 15,120 square feet, which equals 83.16 required
spaces. Staff would suggest changing the site plan to remove the extra
parking spaces to further enhance the open space area on the Highway 15
side. The code requires 8.5 feet by 20 foot parking spaces. The parking
spaces are only 18 feet in depth, as proposed. These spaces would
require modification. The loading area is on the Third Avenue side. The
minimum requirement for a loading area is 12 feet by 65 feet. The
minimum setbacks for parking areas have been met.
Signage The proposed signage is 802.1 square feet. The allowance, by code, is 4
square feet per front foot of building (143 feet), which equals 572 square
feet. Therefore, it seems the proposed signage exceeds the maximum
allowance. The pylon sign proposed at the east entrance of State •
Highway 7 is encroaching into the right of way. The minimum setback
is 5 feet from the right of way.
Flood Plain The lowest floor of the structure is proposed to be 1046.2, which is
similar to the existing Dale's Auto building. This is the lowest possible
floor elevation. The grading plan provides the proposed contour
information. There is a lot of filling in the area of the building to raise it
to the proper elevation.
Utilities Major transmission pole guys are located on the property. The poles
need to be moved or rebuilt. The movement or rebuilding costs would be
the responsibility of the applicant. There may be many a number of
abandoned services in the area. Staff would recommend disconnecting
these services.
Lighting Proposed lighting fixtures are provided in the plan. Staff requested, at
the predevelopment meeting, that fixtures should be placed along the
outer perimeter that match the existing acorn lighting in the downtown
and along Highway 7. (Ordinance #96 -464)

Landscaping The C5 Zoning District requires 15 -20% of the site must be in a
landscaped use. This comer is an integral pan of the downtown area, as
it the "gateway" not only from the east, but from the west and north.
Staff feels it is important to create a downtown oriented "look" for the
project. The City Forester has made the following recommendations for
landscape plan:
Plan Species
Recommended Species
Red Oak
Burr Oak
White Fir
Burr Oak or Eastern Red Cedar
Northwood Maple
Freemanii "Armstrong"
Colorado Blue Spruce
White Spruce (Picea Glauca or P. Glauca "Densata"
Japanese Spreading Yew
Junipers (either pepins or "sea greed')
South side of property
Add Mugo pine, Hawthorn "crusgalli intermis or "crustier"
Railroad The two entrances from Third Avenue cross railroad property. The
owners have an agreement with the railroad for access. Staff is
requesting a copy of that agreement. The railroad area is a possible
location for the relocated electrical lines.
Recommendation: Staff met to discuss the plan and recommend approval of conditional
use permit with the following conditions:
1. Remove second access (east) from plans.
2. Remove extra parking spaces and revise parking spaces to proper
depth.
3. Remove 230 square feet of signage from the plans.
4. Lowest floor of the structure must be 1046.2. An as -built verification
will be necessary.
5. Relocation of the utility lines are required at the cost of the owner.
6. Lighting design be changed to incorporate City lighting standards on
the perimeter of the site.
7. The owner must provide a copy of the access agreement with the
railroad.
8. Landscaping plan be changed to incorporate Forester's
recommendations.
Staff also recommends approval of the preliminary plat with the
following condition:
I. Appropriate utility easements be dedicated.

Dear Ms. Wischnack:
Office Tel: 320/231 -5195
Fax: 320/231 -5168
This letter is in response to your request for a formal review and comment from Mn/DOT on the
site plan for proposed the Walgrem's store at the southwest comer of the junction of TH 7/22 &
TH 15.
As Mn/DOT has mentioned at previous meetings, we are concerned about Walgreens locating at
this location. The intersection of TH 7122 & TH 15 has had previous accident concerns as well
as some capacity issues that were identified in the joint Hutchinson Transportation Plan which
was completed in June of 1998.
After reviewing the latest site plan proposal, Mn/DOT has the following comments:
A. Mn/DOT will agree to a full access entrance on the western limit of the property, which
will remain a full access entrance even after the 5 -lane reconstruction project is
completed, provided the property owner will dedicate full access control to the Slate for
all the remaining access locations which are adjacent to State property acrd close them
accordingly.
B. A temporary access permit will be granted for the requested eastern entrance into the
property. Mn/DOT would like the location of this entrance to be approximately where it
is shown on the site plan. This temporary access permit will expire and the access point
will be eliminated upon M&DOT's completion of the 5 -lane reconstruction project.
Please note that Mn/DOT will require that the access be dedicated as controlled and
removed as a part of the temporary permit process.
C. There will be no direct access to TH 15 from the property. Access to TH 15 southbound
can be achieved via 3^ Street.
0 An equal opportunity employer
P- F,
D. Mn/DOT requests a resolution of support from the City of Hutchinson endorsing the
proposed Hutchinson Transportation Plan recommendations for the TH 7 and TH 15
intersection. in order to build the improvements to TH 7 and TH 15 that were identi feed
by the Plan as needed, Mn/DOT must construct a median across TH 15 at 3 Street and
prevent traffic from turning from 3 Street to northbound TH 15. A resolution of support
from the City for the Plan would send a signal to MrVDOT that the City is aware that 3'
Street will not have access to northbound TH 15 and supports the proposed improvements
as listed in the Plan.
E. Mn/DOT requests the City consider requiring sufficient set -back for the building and
parking to allow TH 7122 to be widened without causing major compensatory damages to
Walgreca's puking or building (Mn/DOT is flexible and willing to work with all parties
on this issue).
If there are no additional concerns based upon these comments, Told Development may proceed
with requesting an entrance permits from Mn /DOT when they are ready to develop.
If you have any questions or concerns about Mn/DOT's comments, please feel free to contact me
at the number listed above or our Hutchinson Regional Engineer, Dave Johnston at the HATS
facility in Hutchinson.
Sincerely,
Patrick J. Weidemann,
Transportation Planner

Julie Wischnack
City of Hutchinson
111 Hassan Street S.E.
Hutchinson, MN 55350
Dear Julie:
In accordance with your request, this letter is intended to clarify our position on the
requested access points to Highway 7 as shown on our proposed site plan. Our position
is consistent with the conversations held in our 11/30/99 meeting between City of
Hutchinson staff, MnDOT, and myself.
We understand that a roadway improvement project is tentatively scheduled for 2006,
and that if this project were to proceed a median would likely be constructed past the
eastern most access on our property. In addition, a median would be built on Main Street
that would prohibit left hand turns from Main Street onto Third Street and vice versa.
For our development to be successful, we are asking for both access points shown on
Highway 7 to function as full access locations, allowing a car to enter from both the
westbound and eastbound directions, and to leave the property in either direction as well.
If this project did in fact take place, the median would force the eastern access to function
as a right- in/right -out only, allowing access into the property only from the west, and
allowing cars to travel only eastbound when leaving the property. We feel that this
would be a safe condition. In the event that this condition is deemed unsafe, TOLD
would allow the access to be closed without cost provided the western access point
remained a full access, and not be reduced to a right- in/right -out.
The determination of "unsafe" could be made by an independent traffic engineer either
before the roadway improvement project is started, or by review of the traffic patterns
upon completion. The selection of the traffic engineer could be agreed to by the City,
MnDOT and TOLD in advance.
By having the two access points for a minimum of six years, Walgreens will have had the
opportunity to establish a customer base in Hutchinson. To allow only one access point,
as MnDOT has suggested, would not provide this opportunity.
MnDOT's position is based in part on traffic design, but also to a great extent on the
• anticipated cost of access and property condemnation. We have allowed for an expanded

green space along Main Street in part to allow room for a future right turn lane from
Highway 7 onto Main Street without the need to condemn parking stalls or other
improved land. Our plan also reduces the number of access locations on the property
from five to two. This, along with giving up the eastern access without compensation if
unsafe, should greatly reduce the cost of acquiring right -of -way.
In closing, I would like to suggest that any successful development on this property will
require access to Highway 7, and will be an issue for all proposed developments whether
ours or someone else's in the future. Our proposal brings significant long -term
investment and tax base creation to Hutchinson by a national company with a strong
financial position. We hope that you will see all aspects of our proposal as a positive to
your community.

TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Brenda Ewing, Human Resources/Transit Coordinator
RE: Severance Package Consideration
DATE: December 7, 1999
Attached is information regarding a proposal for a severance package for those employees whose
positions will be eliminated as a result of the incorporation of the City transit service
(Hutchmobile) into the dual county Trailblazer Transit system. The basic formula for the
severance package is as follows:
1. One week of pay for each year of transit service employment with the City (prorated
for part time employees).
2. One week of insurance coverage (City portion of premium) for each year of transit
employment with the City (full time only).
It is requested that you review this information and consider adopting this severance proposal at
the December 14 council meeting. As you are aware, the City transit system will be
incorporated into the Trailblazer system as of January 1, 2000.
If you have any questions regarding this information, please contact me.

Package proposals are based on the formula of 1 week severance pay for
each year worked. The packages for part time employees are prorated
according to this formula based on the actual number of hours worked as
compared to full time (2080 hours). Part time hours worked have been averaged
per the employee's tenure. Proposal are based on employees working through December 31, 1999.

The League' of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT) offers
coverage for Y2K. We will be receiving a quote on this coverage by
Tuesday for council consideration. We did not budget for this in
1999 nor 2000 and it is my understanding for this coverage must
• carry the policy for 2 years.
We have an estimate of between $6,000 and $8,000 for the coverage.
We will have more details Tuesday and have Dennis Potter, our
insurance agent, on hand to answer questions if the city would want
to have this coverage.

Re: Coverage for risks related to Year 2000 problems
,, 1998
C!r _ dSON
The LMCIT Board has approved a program to provide coverage for liability and other
risks related to Y2k problems. For coverage written or renewed on or after November
15, 1998, Y2k risks will be addressed as follows:
Basic Coverage
The basic coverage that each city will automatically receive provides only very limited
coverage for Y2k- related risks:
• • There will be a $25,000 annual aggregate limit on liability coverage for claims
relating to Y2k problems. Both damages and defense costs are included within this
limit.
• There will be a $5000 limit for Y2k- related extra expenses.
• Both the liability and the extra expense coverage are subject to a 15% city co -pay.
Expanded Y2k Coverage
Cities will have the option to purchase Expanded Y2k Coverage if the city
1) Has made reasonable efforts to identify and correct Y2k problems; and
2) Has developed contingency plans for dealing with potential Y2k problems that
were unanticipated, not able to be corrected, or outside the city's control.
A city can meet these criteria by following and documenting the procedures
recommended in the LMC/LMCIT "Year 2000 Action Guide ". Each LMCIT member
has received a copy of the Guide.

AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY /AFFIRNL ACTION EMPLOYER S _
Under the Expanded Y2k Coverage:
• There is a $750,000 annual aggregate coverage limit for Y2k - related liability claims.
Both damages and defense costs are included within this limit.
• There is a $25,000 limit of coverage for Y2k- related extra expenses.
• Both the Y2k liability coverage and the Y2k extra expense coverage are subject to a
15% city co -pay.
• The charge for the Expanded Y2k Coverage will equal 5% of the city's annual
liability premium and 2% of the city's annual property premiums.
The LMCIT's Y2k coverage program is a unique approach to a unique and
unprecedented set of problems and risks that cities are faced with. Because it's different
from anything we've done before (or anyone else has done, for that matter), there will
probably be a lot of questions. We've tried to answer some of those questions on the
following pages.
What's the big deal with liability for Y2k problems? Even if our computers don't
work right, how could that result in a liability claim against the city?
Actually, "computers" per se probably aren't the biggest problem. The "embedded chip" •
electronic devices that may be found in a wide variety of city systems — like water, sewer,
dispatching, etc. — are probably the bigger concern. Y2k failures in other parties'
systems — electric utilities, for example — could also result in liability claims against the
city.
Here are a few examples of how Y2k problems might result in liability claims against the
city:
• An electronic control that monitors water levels in the water tower malfunctions
because of a Y2k problem. The water level drops, leaving the fire department
without sufficient water to fight a fire that has broken out. The burning building is
destroyed, and the owner sues the city.
The electric utility that serves the city encounters a Y2k problem with its equipment,
and the power goes off as a result. Because the lift stations aren't functioning, sewers
back up into houses all over town. The homeowners sue the city for their damages.
• Because of a Y2k problem, the paging system for the city's volunteer ambulance
attendants doesn't work. That causes a delay in responding to an accident, and the
delay in providing needed emergency treatment makes the injured person's injuries
worse. The injured person sues the city. •
So if the power goes out and the sewers back -up, LMCIT would pay for the
• damages caused by the sewer back -ups?
Yes, if the city is in fact legally liable for those damages. We need to distinguish
between coverage and liability. The LMCIT liability coverage would cover this kind of
claim against the city. That means LMCIT would defend the claim on behalf of the city,
and pay the damages if the city is liable. But whether the city is actually liable for those
damages is a legal issue that the courts would decide.
Actually, for a city that has qualified for LMCIT's Expanded Y2k Coverage, this kind of
claim should be pretty defensible. That city should be in pretty good shape to
demonstrate that the city wasn't negligent, since the city had made a reasonable effort to
identify and correct Y2k problems.
What's covered under the "Y2k extra expense" coverage?
This will cover additional costs the city incurs in responding to a Y2k- related problem
that develops. Here are some examples of the kinds of costs that would be covered:
• The extra cost to have an officer directing traffic at an intersection because the traffic
lights aren't working because of a Y2k problem
• The extra cost for personnel needed to operate the water system manually, because of
• a Y2k problem with the system's electronic controls
• The cost to rent a generator to keep the lift station runnin while the power is out
because the utility company has a Y2k problem.
There are a couple kinds of costs that we'd emphasize are not covered by the Y2k extra
expense coverage:
• The cost to diagnose and fix the Y2k problem in the equipment, or to replace
equipment that's been rendered unusable by a Y2k problem.
• The extra overtime or other costs the city incurs to have necessary personnel standing
by or on duty and prepared to respond in case a Y2k problem develops.
You could think of the Y2k extra expense coverage as helping to pay for the cost of
implementing your contingency plan in response to a Y2K problem that actually occurs.
But it doesn't pay for the costs you incur just in getting ready and being ready; and it
doesn't pay for the cost to fix or replace your equipment to eliminate the Y2k problem for
the future.
•
What do we have to do to qualify for the Expanded Y2k Coverage?
There are basically three things the city needs to do: •
• The city needs to make a reasonable, systematic effort to identify and correct
potential Y2k problems in its various systems.
The city needs to do some contingency planning, so as to be ready to respond in case
there are Y2k problems with city systems.
• The city needs to document and keep good records of its efforts to identify and
correct Y2k problems, and of its contingency planning.
The "Year 2000 Action Guide" that we've sent to all cities outlines a practical approach
cities can follow to get these tasks done. The Guide also contains model forms, reference
materials, and a lot of other Y2k- related information as well. The Guide will be
supplemented and updated throughout the year, and cities will also receive a monthly
Y2k newsletter beginning in January. We anticipate that the most cities will be able to
meet the requirements to qualify for coverage.
We'd particularly emphasize the importance of the "Y2k Assessment Worksheet ", found
on page 33 in Chapter 4 of the Guide. These records will be one of the key pieces of
documentation that we'll be asking you to send to LMCIT's underwriters, to evaluate
whether the city will quality for the expanded Y2k coverage.
•
Our city's coverage renews in January. We're working on Y2k, but there's no way
we'll be able to qualify for the Expanded Y2k Coverage in time for our renewal.
What do we do?
Actually, we anticipate that relatively few of the cities with renewals in late 1998 or early
1999 will be far enough along in their Y2k efforts to qualify at the time of the renewal.
We expect that for most cities we'll probably be issuing a mid -term endorsement to add
the Expanded Y2k Coverage, as the city makes enough progress to qualify for the
expanded coverage.
If we add the Expanded Y2k Coverage mid -term, will the premium charge be pro-
rated?
No. The full amount will be charged, regardless of when the city adds the coverage. The
charge will be applied for two years — both 1998 -1999 and 1999 -2000 coverage years.
We carry a deductible on our city's coverage. How does the deductible work with
• the Y2k coverage?
The coverage for Y2k liability and Y2k extra expense coverages is part of the city's
liability and property coverages, respectively. Whatever deductibles — either per -
occurrence or annual — you have in place which apply to those coverages will apply to
Y2k - related claims.
The deductible applies to the 85% share of the Y2k loss which would otherwise be paid
by LMCIT. For example, suppose your coverage has a $2,500 per - occurrence
deductible, and you have a $10,000 Y2k loss. After the 15% co -pay, $8,500 of the loss
would be payable without the deductible. Subtracting the deductible leaves $6,000 of
that loss which LMCIT would pay.
Is there an option to buy higher coverage limits for Y2k- related liability risks?
No. It's conceivable that we might be able later to add an option for higher limits, but at
this time it's not available. For LMCIT cities that carry the optional excess liability
coverage, it's important to be aware that the excess coverage does not apply to Y2k -
related liability claims.
I can go to a private insurance company and buy a standard comprehensive general
• liability policy that doesn't have any special exclusions, limits, charges, or
underwriting requirements for Y2k. Isn't that a better solution than all this
rigmarole LMCIT would make us go through?
Well, no, probably not. A standard comprehensive general liability (CGL) policy covers
bodily injury or property damage caused by an "occurrence ", which is defined as "an
accident ". Standard CGL policies also exclude damage that is "expected or intended
from the standpoint of the insured ".
Here's what you might run into if you try to rely on a CGL policy to cover a liability
claim resulting from a Y2k equipment problem. First, you'll face the issue of whether a
Y2k problem with a piece of equipment is an "accident" (or "fortuitous ", to use another
insurance -speak term). After all, it's hard to call it an accident if the equipment is
functioning exactly as it was designed to function; the problem is that it wasn't designed
to handle the year 2000. If it's not an "accident ", it's not covered.
You'll then face the issue of whether the damage was "expected ". The insurance
company may very well argue that with all the publicity there has been about possible
Y2k problems with equipment, you can hardly claim that the problem was unexpected.
They may even point out that they sent you lots of information telling you about Y2k,
warning you to expect problems with your equipment, and recommending that you do
•
something about it. Quite a few insurance companies have been sending their insureds
that kind of communication.
Of course, if you've bought a CGL policy from an insurance company, you might also
have bought a "public officials errors and omissions" policy too. But those policies
almost universally exclude bodily injury and property damage, so that may not be much
help either.
In short, you can't just assume that a private CGL or other insurance policy covers these
risks. If you plan to rely on private insurance, ask them to tell you unequivocally in
writing that they will cover liability claims arising from Y2k- related equipment or
software problems.

REQUEST FOR HANGAR RENTAL FEE CREDIT /WAIVER
In their October meeting, the Airport Advisory Commission requested that a waiver for one
month's rental fees be granted to tenants of the southernmost enclosed hangar and the southern tier
of the open hangars. Requests that significantly affect fees or budgets require City Council action.
During recent construction, the aforementioned hangars were inaccessible for an extended period
Original construction schedules estimated an interruption in access for about two weeks. However,
because of necessary drainage, subgrade and base corrections, the hangars were inaccessible for a
period of nearly six weeks. During this time, aircraft owners were forced to store their aircraft
outdoors or do without access to their aircraft.

RE: Consideration of Purchase of Front -End Loader for Wastewater Facility from

DATE: 12/07/1999
cc: JohnRodeber &DirEngmemnVPubhcWodo,RandyDeVni , Du. Waer/Wastewac.
Wheel Loader Purchase
The Wastewater Department is requesting authorization to purchase a wheel loader. The loader will be used
by the Wastewater Department. The loader was included in the department's 1999 budget.
The loader will be used for handling sludge and for other materials- handling dirties at the Wastewater
treatment plant The loader will also be equipped for snow removal operations.
In the past, the Wastewater department has relied on loaders generally used by the Street and Park
departments.
It is my recommendation that the City purchase a Case loader. The City of Hutchinson owns two other Case
wheel loaders. Advantages of maintaining fleet integrity include operator safety, fostered by familiarity with
the equipment, and maintenance cost savings. The Case loader appropriate for this application is the 621
model.
The anticipated cost of the loader, equipped for use at Wastewater and as a snow removal unit is expected to
be just under 5125,000. The loader, all attachments, an extended 5,000 hr. / 60 mo. warranty, and taxes are
included in this price. 'Ilse final price, attachments, and other details of the purchase can be negotiated.
Case wheel loaders are available through the Cooperative Purchasing Venture sponsored by the Stare's
Department of A dministrat ion. Because the Department of Administration has already gone through the
bidding process on our behalf, we are not bound to the traditional requirements for bidding. If Case loaders,
or other loaders for that matter, were available from a local vendor, I would request that we proceed with the
traditional bidding process. However, because no local vendors sell this equipment, I recommend we
purchase the loader from the State contract approved vendor.
As always, the City Council reserves the right to reject any, all, or pans of proposals or request immaterial
modifications to them. You may accept bids already taken by the State of Minnesota on behalf of its political
subdivisions. You are the final purchasing authority. No contract exists until you accept a bid.

RE: Resolution Adding Municipal State Aid Routes
(Edmonton Avenue and Century Avenue SW)
DATE: December 8, 1999
Attached is a Resolution to Mn/DOT's Division of State Aid to add two routes to our
Municipal State Aid (MSA) system. The two routes are as follows:
1. Century Avenue SW:
2. Edmonton Avenue SW:
From Dale Street to School Road (CSAH 7)
From TH 15 to Airport Road (CSAH 8)
Both routes are proposed for construction within the next few years, will act as Minor
Arterial or Major Collector routes, have limited assessable frontage due to wetland
or other physical constraints, and are included in our Comprehensive Transportation
Plan.
The total length of the two projects is 0.62 miles. We currently have 1.07 miles to
designate as MSA routes. This is expected to increase the amount of funding we
receive from MSA funds.
We recommend approving the Resolution.
