Motion unanimously carried. PUBLIC HEARING -- 6:00 P.M. (a) DISCUSSION OF COMMUNITY NEEDS a) New Senior Center b) Additional Iee Sheet C) Convention Center d) All Other Projects/Needs Rich Westlund reported that a Community Needs Task Force consisting of nine members was appointed by the City Council to identify community needs. The Task • Force took a broad approach which covered the seniors, youth and business sector. They narrowed the needs down to three potential projects; namely, a new senior center, an additional ice sheet, and a convention center. Tom Laurion, representing the Hutchinson Hockey Association, addressed the need for an additional ice sheet. He pointed out that the programs have grown, but they have limited ice facilities and tune conflicts. Laurion commented on the different uses of the ice time by a large variety of users within the community. Therefore, it is recommended to construct in three phases a new building which would be compatible with the present structure. PHASE I -- Spring 1998; structure for second sheet of ice; $400,000 cost PHASE H — Year open; put in ice; $200,000 cost PHASE IH — Could be postponed; $300,000 - $700,000 cost, depending upon foyer costs Chris Brown, member of hockey board, stated that he used to play hockey outside. The Civic Arena was built after he left the program. Three years ago it was determined that there was a shortage of ice so a youth rink was built at the fairgrounds. It presents a problem when there is no ice available for skating. Campbell Lake has been used for ice skating. The figure skaters have taken over the ice time. There are three teams of 15 kids at each level who need more ice for practice time. n LJ CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JANUARY 27, 1998 • Brad Emans , 742 Southview Court, commented that the concerns addressed by the Task Force are the same as his. He thought the Task Force and City should try to build these proposed facilities. Lorin Pollmann, a member of the Community Needs Task Force and Senior Advisory Board, stated the present facility is not large enough for the 125 seniors who use the Senior Center per day. The small office at the Center is used by three staff persons, and there is not adequate space to hold dances or for entertainment. Even the Senior Advisory Board meetings have to be held off -site. He stated a gift of two billiard tables and table tennis had to be declined due to shortage of space. They would like to have a woodworking room in the new facility. Since the Senior Center serves the surrounding area, the members have sponsored several projects and fund raisers to raise $70,000.00 toward a facility. Hometown Realty has committed to donate $50.00 for every 1998 closing to the Senior Center fund. It is estimated that it will amount to $5,000.00 to 7,000.00. Both the Fitzloff Hardware and Farm and Home buildings have been considered as a potential facility. Also, there has been consideration of adding onto the present Recreation Center since it would make available more programs (gym and pool) and provide ample parking. However, if the Senior Center were to be added on the north side of the Recreation Center, it would eliminate two baseball fields currently in use. Ruth Higginbotham stated she moved to Hutchinson in 1984. She became active in • the Senior Center and did volunteer work to raise money for a Senior Center for the future generations. She stated that there is no place for library books in the present facility. They want a ceramic class area as well as space to entertain visitors in a new center. Lester Smith, Senior Advisory Board, commented that he had recently visited the Willmar Senior Center. It was funded by the City of Willmar paying one -third the cost, the seniors paying one - third, and grants from foundations paying the final one- third. Duane Hoversten, Community Needs Task Force member, spoke on the need for a convention center. Presently there is no facility in town large enough to accommodate a large group. He pointed out that the 25,000 square foot facility would bring people to Hutchinson, add to the economic strength of the City, create retail and specialty shops, and add 50 more motel rooms. It was estimated that each convention attendee would spend about $240.00 in two days. The proposed convention center would need high technology equipment in the convention rooms and a ballroom to seat 1,000 people for catered meals. The large area could be divided into four smaller areas. Hoversten stated the goal was to hold 13 conventions in a year. The estimated cost of the convention center was $3.5 million and would require four full -time employees to operate it. Tom Wirt, 17614 240th Street, commented on the Minnetonka Community Center and stated they received federal funding for their facility. He inquired if anyone had considered putting all the needs into one area. Mr. Wirt stated the intergenerational issue came up for the Art Center. In Litchfield they put the youth and seniors • together for a nice blend. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JANUARY 27, 1998 n LJ Vi Mayer, Community Needs Task Force member and Chamber Executive Director, reported the Board of Directors voted unanimously in favor of the three projects recommended. Marsha Goff, manager of Americ -Inn, stated the City needs a meeting center for corporate people who are in town. She cannot bid conventions because there is no place to hold large meetings. Group tour operators would bring groups to Hutchinson if we had a facility available. Ms. Goff presented statistics obtained from the Minnesota Office of Tourism. Dave Radloff, 421 Campbell Lane, questioned if the proposed facilities were "needs" or "wants." The City has to look at the viewpoint of the taxpayer because the people look at the overall taxation. He stated he supports the high school and feels its the most important building in town. Mr. Radloff commended the presenters, but he thought the question was "our they really needs or are they nice to do or compelling for the community?" Robert Hantge, 310 School Road SW, noted that he liked the ideas presented, but he liked the idea of combining them into one facility and save money. One per cent of the budget could take care of maintenance of the rivers and dredge out some of the areas that would damage boats, skiers and sand bars. Council Member Peterson commented that someone had called her to request the river be added to the list. The Mayor stated the Art Center was a concern of someone who called him. • Shari Colvin, 735 Shady Ridge Road NW, stated most of her questions were answered tonight. She asked if the start-up costs would be addressed at the hearing. She inquired about the operational costs and who would cover the long or short term losses. Michael Ribich,1350 Campbell Lane NW, noted there must be identification between "need" and "desire." He has three children in youth hockey so he is familiar with that situation. However, he was not convinced that there was a need for a convention center. He had contacted two agencies for information, namely the Economic Trade and Development and the U of M Department of Applied Economics. Studies are available, but there are few on convention centers. Ribich did not recommend going forward with the projects until a feasibility study was conducted by an impartial person. He thought the City should leave construction of a convention center to the private enterprise or developers and not involve the tax payer. There are alternative options for tax such as using capital improvement funds for two of the projects and a restaurant/hotel tax to pay for the convention center. Bob Barwick, owner of Americ -Inn and Comfort Inn, stated that private enterprise will not build the convention center. People do not want to pay higher prices for motel rooms to attend a convention. It takes 100 rooms to support a conference center. He commented that the City has to add to the current process of the community which increases the tax base. Barwick stated he built his hotel in 1994, and he sees the City of Hutchinson as a progressive community. LJ El CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JANUARY 27, 1998 • Council Member Mlinar commented on the Youth Center which the City provided. He stated that Hutchinson is the "center" for the surrounding area. (b) DISCUSSION OF FINANCING METHODS a) General Obligation Financing b) Sales Tax Option (Special Legislation) and Local Referendum C) Local Fund - Raising d) Other Ideas Finance Director Kenneth B. Merrill addressed the methods of fund raising or financing for the proposed facilities. He stated that general obligation bonds would need voter approval. The one -half cent sales tax would generate $735,000.00 revenue per year based upon 1995 sales. With that revenue, it has been projected that it would support a $5 million bond issue to be repaid over a 15 year period. Tom Wirt asked if state or federal funding had been researched. He was told "no." Chester Kiekhafer, 316 Connecticut Street, commended the group for the information provided and suggested going to the public for a vote. The City Attorney stated that a general obligation bond would require voter approval while a sales tax would require the consent of the Legislature. He suggested adoption of a Resolution requesting Legislature to authorize enabling legislation to employee • a one -half cent sales tax with a sunset provision and a referendum by the voters:: ► 1% tax on restaurant and on -sale liquor transactions. ► Tax on new and used automobiles limited to $20 charge per vehicle. ► 1/2% tax on all transactions presently taxable under M.S. Chapt. 297A. ► Tax designed to raise a maximum of $5 million in gross tax revenue, with exception of I% restaurant and alcoholic beverage tax above (which would remain in place to finance convention center activities since restaurant and on -sale liquor establishments benefit from this project); '/� cent sales tax would expire when $5 million in gross tax revenue has been raised. ► Referendum of voters of the City of Hutchinson would be required to impose the tax. Motion was made by Erickson, seconded by Mlinar, to close the hearing at 7:57 p.m. Motion unanimously carried. Motion was made by Mlinar, seconded by Haag, to approve the City Attorney's recommendations and to adopt Resolution. Motion unanimously carried. u to JU LIV.

Trustee, Dr. Mark Matthias, Trustee /Chief of Medical Staff; Bob Peterson, Trustee. Absent Don Erickson, Director (excused) Others Present Philip G. Graves, President; Robyn Erickson, Care and Program Support Division Director: Pat Halverson, Community Care Division Director Jane Lien, Acute Care Division Director; Ed Tusa, Finance, Information and Quality/Senior Care Divisions Director; Tom O'Connor, Allina Regional Health Services; Jim Lyons, HMC Administrator; Jim Lammers, Facility Planning; Corrinne Schlueter, Recorder. Mr. Jim Lammers, planning consultant, gave a presentation before the start of the meeting on the proposed Hutchinson Medical Center (HMC) expansion. The current plan is to add 12,000 square feet on the first floor, 12,000 square feet on the lower level, and 12,000 square feet on the upper level. The HMC is anticipating the addition of ten more doctors plus specialists to the Medical Center staff. Currently, sixty percent of the time, their physicians are working out of two exam rooms instead of the usual three. The existing clinic is about 27,000 square feet. A parking analysis is now being done and results will be shared at the board's January meeting. The board thanked Lammers for his presentation. • Daggett then expressed his personal thanks, and those of the board, to Jim Mills, who was retiring after serving 1]- plus years on both the hospital and Burns Manor boards. Daggett presented Mills with a clock and gavel as tokens of appreciation for his service to the community. The meeting was then called to order by Chairperson Daggett. Minutes of Past Meetings Minutes of the November 18, 1997, regular board of directors' meeting were presented and discussed. Following discussion, motion was made by Mills, seconded by Myers, to approve the minutes of the November 18, 1997, meeting as presented. All were in favor. Motion carried. Medical Staff Meeting Minutes and Credentialing Dr. Matthias reviewed and discussed the Medical Staff Executive Committee meeting minutes. Credentialing recommendations from the Executive Committee of the Medical Staff were made for the following practitioners: Initial Appointments Dr. Leone Johnson Pathology Active Dr. Mark Wilkowske Oncology Active Dr. Robert Fisher Urology Active Reappointment. Dr. Mark Wikenheiser Orthopedics Active • � -h.

All were in favor. Motion carried. New Business 1. Construction Manager Graves reported on the importance of bringing a construction manager on board to help with planning and different phases of the proposed Medical Center expansion and remodeling project. Graves asked for approval to hire a Construction Manager, begin the interview process, and return with recommendations to the January board meeting. Board members expressed their agreement with the concept of hiring a construction management firm to supervise the project if the decision is made to proceed with expansion of the HMC and remodeling of the hospital. Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Slanga, to authorize the President to interview construction management fines and present a recommendation of the firm of choice to the board in January. All were in favor. Motion carried. IL Capital Expenditures 1) New Surgical Table A capital expenditure request to purchase a new surgical table for surgery services was presented. The existing table is 30 years old and in need of repair. It would cost approximately $8,000. to repair the present leaking cylinder and refurbish the table. i Following discussion, motion was made by Mills, seconded by Black, to request authority of the . City Council to purchase a new operating table in the amount of $32,000. All were in favor. Motion carried. 2) Sterile Processing System. A capital expenditure request to purchase a new sterile processing system for surgery services was presented. The standard of practice has changed, which provides for sterilization of immersible surgical scopes, cameras, and accessories that cannot be steam - sterilized. This system will be used primarily for endoscopic procedures. Following discussion, motion was made by Slanga, seconded by Mills, to authorize the purchase of a new sterile processing system at a cost of $14,900 plus installation. All were in favor. Motion carried. 3) Purchase of a Mammography Machine. After completing the bidding process, the bids were carefully reviewed by staff and it was decided that three did not meet specifications. Recommendation was made to reject the bids from General Electric, Instrumentarium, and Bennett, and recommend for purchase the LoRad M -IV mammography machine from Delta Medical Systems, Inc., in the amount of $75,660 (after trade -in). Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Matthias, to recommend to the City Council that the bids from General Electric, Instrumentarium, and Bennett be rejected, and the bid from Delta Medical Systems for a LoRad M -IV mammography machine, in the amount of $76,000, be accepted. All were in favor. Motion carried. 4) NETG Software Several months ago, authority was granted to purchase and install education • software. Recommendation was made to, instead, lease the software for a period of three years from NETG (National Education Training Group) to allow users a chance to use it at their individual stations. 0 • Regular Board of Directors' Meeting — 12/16/47 Page Three Following discussion, motion was made by Slanga, seconded by Myers, to authorize the President to enter into an agreement to lease, for a period of three years, educational software from NETG it the amount of $24,800 each year, for the next three years. All were in favor. Motion carried. 5) Replacement of Network Server. A capital expenditure request to purchase new network server hardware was presented. The performance of the current machine has been compromised for some time, and it has been seriously overloaded by the expansion of the network required for the Meditech implementation. Because of the urgency of the request, three quotations from suppliers have been obtained instead of the usual bidding process, per recommendation of the City Attorney. Following discussion, motion was made by Mills, seconded by Black, to approve the purchase of a Compaq network server from the company submitting the lowest of three quotations. Estimated cost of the equipment was $38,000. All were in favor. Motion carried. III. Hospice and Connect Care Space Staff have been working the last several months to find a new home for Hospice and Connect Care (home care). The board learned a site has been located in downtown Hutchinson that will meet current and future needs. Approximately 3,400 square feet of space is available and will cost between $60,000 and $65,000 to remodel. Because a part of the property (approximately 50 %) will be occupied by Hospice as well, HAHC will pay for three- fourths of the price and Glencoe Area Health Center will pay for one - fourth. A five -year lease with option of two additional five -year leases will be requested. • Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Matthias, to authorize staff to lease the proposed property in downtown Hutchinson, sublease a portion of the property to Connect Care, and remodel the premises at a cost of approximately $65,000. All were in favor. Motion carried. IV. Board Evaluation O'Connor reported from the board self - evaluation done in December that everything appears to be going well. The only area identified by the board for improvement was the need to have more exposure for the organization in the local newspaper. Graves will develop an improved communication system so that regular news releases will be submitted to the Hutchinson Leader and surrounding newspapers. V. Strategic Plan Presentation of the plan was tabled until the January meeting. VI. Real Estate Assessment The board had discussed, at previous meetings, the availability of property surrounding the hospital site for future expansion. Management staff have contacted Frauenshuh Companies of Minneapolis to do a real estate assessment and master site plan for this campus. The proposed cost of the assessment and master site plan was $10,000 plus other reimbursables. Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Slanga, to hire Frauenshuh Companies at a cost of $10,000 plus other reimbursables, to do a real estate assessment and master site plan for the current hospital campus. All were in favor. Motion carried. VII. Parking Consultant A proposal from SRF Consulting was presented for consideration to do a parking lot assessment for the hospital and Bums Manor sites. The information from this study will be used in • planning for the proposed expansion of the Hutchinson Medical Center. Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Mills, to authorize staff to engage the services of SRF Consulting of Minneapolis. at a cost of $20,000, to complete a parking assessment for both the hospital and nursing home sites. All were in favor. Motion carried. 7, Regular Board of Directors' Meeting — 12/16/97 Page Four Orvanizational Renorts A. President. Nothing further was reported. B. Acute Care.

Graves, President; Jane Lien, Acute Care Programs and Services; Ed Tusa, FIO /Senior Care Programs and Services; Robyn Erickson, Care and Program Support Services; Laurie Hulkonen, Recorder. The purpose of the meeting was to distribute the 1998 business plan and the 1998 budget for board consideration. Action on these items will be requested at the regularly- scheduled board meeting on January 20. 1998 Business Plan Graves introduced and led discussion of the 1998 business plan for HAHC. The business plan has four parts, including the organizational strategic plan, the capital and operating budgets, and the quality plan. The organizational strategic plan included a diagram of access points on the care continuum, operating environment, WW mmunity outreach and transportation. Driving all others are the third -party payers. The senior management 2 the strategic and tactical plans around each of these points and further framed those around growth, quality and efficiency for each of these areas. The organization -wide growth strategies include: 1. To achieve organizational net income of 9 %. 2. To increase adjusted admissions by 5% over 1997 projections. 3. To plan the relocation of the nursing home to advance the senior care continuum. 4. To expand the HMC physical plant to accommodate growth demands for the next five years. 5. To develop full -time cardiology services in partnership with Minneapolis Cardiology. 6. To increase market share by increasing physician availability in oncology, psychiatry, and orthopedics. The organization -wide quality strategies include: 1. To achieve and maintain practices within the organization that meet the standards for recommendation by the JCAHO. 2. To improve customer service as evidenced on the Picker Data scores. 3. To be organization -ready for Y2K (Year 2000) requirements. 4. To research ISO (International Standards Organization) as an alternative to the JCAHO. 5. To ensure adequate and appropriate staffing by improving staff recruitment and compensation practices. The organization -wide efficiency strategies include: 1. To reduce, as a percent of net revenue, salaries, wages, and benefits from 55.2% to 53.1%. • 2. To reduce, as a percent of net revenue, supply, food, and drug costs from 13.5% to 12.5 %. 3. To reduce FTEs/100 adjusted admissions from 4.7 to 4.63. 4. To contain oost/adjusted admission by an increase of 3.0% over 1997 levels. 5. To implement a teleconferencing systems for employees to access education -opportunities and to save travel time and expense. j/ — A� a> Board of Directors' Budget Information Meeting Minutes — 1/13/98 Page Two Graves told the board he spent time with Jim Lyons to discuss which physician specialties needed to be added. They determined the only focus for this year will be internal medicine and orthopedics. This is factored into longer -range plans. HAHC's cost is included in the budget, and another orthopedic surgeon's figures were used to estimate what HAHC revenues would be. 1998 Budget Graves then introduced Tusa, who distributed and discussed the executive summary with budget assumptions, a narrative on the income statement and balance sheet, and financial information (including payer mix, income statement, balance sheet, key indicators, ratios, and the capital budget). He presented budgeted items in graph form, comparing 1998, budgeted 1997, and estimated year -end 1997 figures. The capital budget was presented by division and by descending dollar total cost. It was noted that purchase of an MRI has been shelved at this time by increasing time with the mobile unit. Spiral CT will be added to upgrade our current equipment. Anything costing $10,000 or more will come to the board. Anything costing less than $10,000 will not, because Graves is authorized to spend up to $10,000. The organization will also re-evaluate the patient - centered care philosophy in 1998. G Graves emphasized the intent of this meeting was to walk through the materials and give the board time to digest the information. These will be on the agenda for next week, when board members will be asked for more input, and then . asked to take action on the business plan and the budget. He noted this will be a challenging year because a lot of operating indicators need to be improved. Overtime must be improved and/or reduced, management of positions must be improved, and the limited labor pool in Hutchinson will be a challenge. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 6:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Laurie Hulkonen Don Erickson Recorder Secretary o r1 �J nL, • HUTCHINSON AREA HEALTH CARE ANNUAL BOARD OF DIRECTORS' MEETING — January 20,1998 Conference Room AB — 5:30 p.m. Present Tom Daggett, Chairperson; Paulette Slanga, Vice Chairperson; Don Erickson, Secretary; Elaine Black, Trustee; Rich Myers, Trustee; Dr. Mark Matthias, Chief of StaffTrnrstee; Bob Peterson, Trustee Others Present Philip G.

Motion carried. Annual Board of Directors' Meeting — 1120198 Page Two New Business A. Construction Manager Firm Jim Lammers, of Facility Planning Services, discussed work done thus far in interviewing the construction manager firms who were interested in working with the proposed expansion project of HMC and accompanying hospital remodeling. He distributed a recommendation for engaging the services of Mortenson as construction manager and a cost comparison showing Mortenson having the lowest cost proposal (considering fees and reimbursables as part of a total cost). Question was asked if hiring a construction manager committed HAHC to the project. Answer given was no, this work is just for estimating at this stage and does not commit HAHC to the project. The fee quoted was predicated on a $6 million project Mortenson broke down the fee in pre - construction and construction costs; the pre-construction cost was half of one percent of the estimate that they gave us. Lammers noted HAHC doesn't want to pay Mortenson 3% of reimbursables unless the decision is made to go ahead with the project HAHC will need their work in order to move the project ahead. For $30,000, they're going to go through the estimating process (based on $6,000,000 project). The architect is the next step in the process to work toward the point of scope and drawings that a subcontractor could bid on; hiring of Horty Elving & Associates was authorized by the board for this project a few meetings ago. This work should somewhat lower the architect fees. Graves will go to the City Council tomorrow night to discuss the project. The City will want to see the scope, secure leases, and learn how HAHC is going to finance this before authorizing the project. Management initially anticipated the project would be small enough in scope to fund out of reserves; however, the project has grown a bit Lyons added the project may be in the $4- to-$4.5 million range for the clinic portion. Additionally, another finance firm may need to be engaged to perform the due diligence on the project. i Following discussion, motion was made by Erickson, seconded by Slanga, to hire Mortenson as construction • management firm for the project All were in favor. Motion carried. Lammers then discussed a proposed plan for the clinic project. The board looked at preliminary drawings and options for location of a lower level and a second level. The plans included locating the business office, transcription, and medical records on the lower level. The main level would be revenue - producing space. B. Parking Consultant Report Lammers introduced the parking consultant, Ferrol Robinson, from SRF Consulting. Robinson shared estimates that, with the clinic in place, HAHC needs about 160 parking spaces. Existing parking is about 163 spaces. That means HAHC will either have to build another level to accommodate 163 cars or find adjacent property to hold 163 cars. The board learned that Frauenschuh, the realty consulting firm engaged by HAHC earlier, is looking at available property around the hospital site to see what HAHC might be able to acquire. Robinson reviewed the process to survey HAHC's parking capacity. Consideration was given to some of the packing problems the hospital and clinic are having now, to see what will happen when expansion occurs, and another 5 -year period beyond when the nursing home might be located on the site. They also looked at 10 years from now, when an assisted living facility might be constructed across Freemont. His staff evaluated what shortages there were for each of these periods and what needs to be done to satisfy the need and also looked at construction of additional packing. Also considered was travel demand management (i.e., policy decisions that HAHC could do with employees to promote busing or ride sharing, carpooling, shift arrangements, etc.). In January, his firm and volunteers from the Hutchinson Community Hospital Auxiliary were located in each lot on the hospital site to count the cars in the parking lot at 6:30 a.m., then all cars coming and leaving by 15- minute intervals between 6:30 and 3:30. By adding and subtracting what time during the day, they determined the maximum • accumulation demand and what the current parking demand is. They also did a survey of the medical staff as to where they came in (e.g., Freemont Avenue, Highway 15 or Century Avenue), and they got a good sense for the pattern of parking. What they found was 163 spaces in Clinic lot, 61 spaces in the south lot; 77 spaces in the main visitors' parking lot; 26 in the west lot between the main lot and the Rehab lot; 72 spaces in the Rehab lot; 29 in the Same -Day Surgery lot; and 25 in the Emergency Room lot. The baseline total for these lots was 453 spaces. 4 Annual Board of Directors' Meeting — 1120198 Page Three (B.) Robinson showed a survey of each lot's vehicle occupancy rates. Hospital site average was 1.23. The survey done later at BMNH was 1.24 average vehicle occupancy. (Visitor averages were substantially higher than employee averages at BMNH.) He showed graphic illustrations of parking accumulation in each lot at various times in the day. Their figures showed the Rehab and west lots have least utilization; but clinic lot showed peak at 10:00 a.m. and again later in the afternoon. While this was a one -day sample, Robinson stated it is reliable. They noted a poor mixture of through -traffic with drivers using the closed service road as a through -way. Robinson stated he felt this should be checked with the City, and Lyons also asked that the City check the through - traffic through the clinic lot, where people also drive through to avoid the stop signs at Century Avenue and Highway 15. Future parking needs estimates were as follows: Year 1998: supply 453, demand 388, deficit 65; Year 1999: supply 453, demand 613, deficit 160; Year 2003: supply 441, demand 721, deficit 280; Year 2008: supply, 487, demand 7B2, deficit 295. Suggestion was made to mitigate the parking shortage by management of employees, shuttling, managing overlap of work shifts, etc. A 300 -space parking ramp would require 360'x120', which would fit into the existing space if the helicopter pad were relocated on the top of the ramp. This would require about three levels of parting (ground level plus two additional levels). It would also ft in the main lot, overlapping the west and main lot to give HAHC a 360x160 area. Costs associated were discussed. Surface lots are about $3,000 for the same size; however, the cost rises to $5,000 -$5500 for one level, and if you go over two levels, cost is estimated to be $7300 -$8700 per space. That considers the fact the ground level is a lower cost than the construction (average for all spaces). Approximately $2.5- • $3 million per level would be needed. Robinson's research showed traffic counts at Century and Freemont expected growth and, at some point, those intersections would need to be signalized. He stated the intersection of Freemont and Highway 15 almost warrants signals now. The intersection on Century, with the expansion and growth of traffic, also comes close to warranting signals. Question was asked whether it would be practical for the City to abandon Freemont Avenue. Graves replied one of the questions raised before would be the access to emergency services. Question was also asked about the expected growth in the number of employees compared to the expected growth in customer numbers. Robinson stated that can be calculated but wasn't brought with this preliminary report Comment was made that the psychological impact of parking ramps needs to be considered. Because clinic demand is estimated to grow from 163 to 300 spaces within ten years, Robinson - recommended providing the capacity up front or building one or two levels and adding more as the space materializes. He also assumed, with the population growth in our service area, if no expansion plans for the hospital were in the numbers, HAHC would incorporate some numbers with the growth (5 -10 %) for 2003 and 2008 respectively. This amounts to an additional 30-40 spaces. Daggett stated this is as big an issue as the clinic expansion. Lammers said, in his discussions with the City building inspector about the expansion, concern was already expressed for HAHC's parking capacity. Comment was made that building opportunities are expensive. The last expansion project was easier because HAHC wasn't as landlocked as it is now. The board agreed this was serious and there is a need to clearly understand the demands of the next 10 years, or the board will be battling the same issue every frve years and paying a premium to do that. Question was asked if it would make more sense to instead buy Plaza 15 and build an underground tunnel to connect it to the hospital, because parking is a fairly significant driver as far as what can be done for construction. Robinson complimented the volunteers who worked with his staff, stating 'we need to hire these people° because of the outstanding job they did. The board thanked him for his presentation, and he and Lammers left the meeting. 6 Annual Board of Directors' Meeting — 1120198 Page Four C. 1998 Budget Graves recapped information presented at last week's budget meeting. Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Black, to approve the 1998 budget as presented. All were in favor. Motion carried. D. Strategic Plan A recap was also given of the proposed 1998 strategic plan, which was also discussed at last week's budget meeting. Most of the emphasis in 1998 will be on improvement in operations, increasing oncology services, and the building/remodeling project Following discussion, motion was made by Slanga, seconded by Matthias, to approve the strategic plan as presented at last week's meeting. All were in favor. Motion carved. E. Common Registration Proposal The Hutchinson Medical Center (HMC) and HAHC have had discussions regarding common registration, and Tusa and Lyons shared a proposal for common registration with the board. Original cost was estimated to be $24,000 for HAHC, but this has decreased to $18,000. The need to establish an indicator as to how collaborative efforts such as this would be priced out was noted. i Tusa stated the common effort would be done to increase customer satisfaction. He reviewed the current process, where patients register several times as they move through the organization. Through use of Lotus Notes software, the tools to combine patient scheduling and patient registration will be available. A registration screen will be constructed and automatically flow through the computer system into HMC's financial registration system and will also flow to HAHC's registration system. Efficiencies of the project will include information- sharing opportunities between • the two organizations. Lyons agreed this is a good project. He used the examples of a patient coming into the clinic and being ordered for testing and someone coming into the Emergency Room after the clinic has closed. This system would take more responsibility out of the hands of the patient for scheduling appointments, etc. The possibility of an electronic medical record is also something that's a few years out, but the two organizations could perhaps develop a joint release for records sharing, etc. Plans may include using the current servers or the HMC's AS400 for this process. Legal issues will need to be studied to ensure patient wishes are safeguarded. Common registration will allow both organizations to share common personnel; however, if HMC uses a remote location for the clinic, we may need to duplicate staff- The common entry point would further meld the image of the HMC and HAHC as one organization. Following discussion, motion was made by Black, seconded by Myers, to proceed with the purchase and implementation of the common registration proposal at an estimated cost of $18,000. All were in favor. Motion carried. Next week, baseline studies will begin to learn what elements to incorporate, and a six -month development time is expected. Plans are to implement this on a small scale for testing and ultimately upscale with more employees. By the end of the year, full implementation is expected. Third Quarter Safety Report Safety Committee report highlights were discussed by Halverson. Mattress size for resident beds creates some safety issues at BMNH, so a team was pulled together to look at this and provide immediate response. Risk management identified the need to look at fall reduction throughout the organization. In the past, we've had a very organized look at BMNH but not organization -wide. In third quarter, staff also addressed flooding and mold issues at BMNH. That project has been completed. Data stowed the highest employee injuries are in lifting and back strain, so Occupational Health staff are looking at a safety program to alleviate these injuries. Next month, a fourth quarter report and annual report will be presented with a summary of how Safety Committee functions will be changing. Following discussion, motion was made by Slanga, seconded by Myers, to approve the third quarter Safety Committee report as presented. All were in favor. Motion carried. jn Annual Board of Directors' Meeting — 1/20/98 Page Five G. McLeod Co. Contracts Management have spent time with Gary Sprynczynatick, McLeod County Social Services director, to propose our structure for next year including changes and an increase in the fee schedule. Contracts recommended for approval are the adult day treatment, detoxification, outpatient chemical dependency, and community service program. The one contract yet outstanding is the outpatient mental health contract, which is still under negotiation. It was noted the adult day care contract comes due on July 1, 1998. The overall rate increase in the first four contracts is 3.5 %. A meeting is scheduled this week to finalize the outpatient contract, Following discussion, motion was made by Myers, seconded by Slanga, to approve the 1998 contracts with McLeod County Social Services for adult day treatment, detoxification, outpatient chemical dependency, and the community service programs as presented. All were in favor. Motion carved. H. Information Systems Update Tusa gave a brief update on information systems (IS) activities related to the computer conversion. Detailed computer costs were shared. He reviewed 1997 spending in relation to the total budget approved. A summary of activities occurring in IS relating to Meditech and other projects was also shared. He noted that management does anticipate the project over three years to come within the budget. Staff are where they want to be on the timeline for implementation. Fiscal services and payroll are on -line. He summarized current goals, including implementation of Meditech nodules; NETG education software for employee education; Lotus Notes and Magic Office for e-mail capability; the help desk for cataloguing and prioritizing IS concerns; common registration and scheduling; addition of an IS manager/supervisor position; Meditech education reports; continued development of IS- related policies and procedures; Year 2000 organizational assessment; phone system enhancement; and HAHC IS standards to improve performance of the service area. The HAHC IS project summary was also discussed, showing the status of work projects that have been completed, are in progress, or are yet to be done. Laboratory and Radiology Merger. Lyons and Graves discussed their reasoning behind the decision not to pursue a laboratory and radiology merger between their two organizations at this time. Their original deadline was before Christmas, having to let their staffs know what they planned to do just before the holiday. They identified that both organizations have service areas making money for each organization, and finding a way to combine it so it makes sense for both organizations was difficult. Particular attention was paid to potential fraud and abuse considerations, especially since the attorney general and the Health Care Financing Association (HCFA) are looking at some hospitals and studying Minnesota in particular. They realized both organizations have a number of opportunities to find ways to work together to reduce expenses that are not billable services, and the decision was made to consider these areas instead. Both felt there may be some opportunity to merge laboratory and radiology services in the future, but not now. They noted staff had a lot of anxiety for job security; many people work in the clinic because they don't want to work the hospital's shift or in on -call situations. The private vs. public employee situation was also discussed. They acknowledged any change produces anxiety. They were very open with staffs of both organizations and found ways that both organizations could work better together, but ultimately believed a good decision was made. Fourth Quarter 1997 Status Report The fourth quarter report on efforts made to achieve the 1997 strategic goals was presented. Following discussion, motion was made by Black, seconded by Slanga, to approve the fourth quarter report status report as presented. All were in favor. Motion carded. 7 Annual Board of Directors' Meeting — 1/20/98 Page Six Organizational Reports. A.

Indicators to be included in the quality board report were discussed. Lastly, members received a copy of the committee structure and how we function for review and return with comments. 1 6 Abbott Northwestern Report Myers discussed the annual board of trustees' education seminar. The agenda was Allina integration and how integration was working. They brought in a representative of Deloitte Touche, the managing director of their health care practice. He's working with Columbia and Oxford systems to sort out how they will change their systems to reflect a better model. His presentation looked at present practice and future trends, and he also shared information on the number of systems in the United States. Discussion also looked at art vs. science in medicine. The trend is more art than science. Allina Report O'Connor gave a brief recap of the Allina report to management. Statistical Report The monthly statistical report was not available due to IS problems. Admissions were reported to be in excess of budget. Financial Statements The December financial statements were not available due to IS problems, as well. Staff believe there is a positive bottom line for the month, but exact figures weren't available. The statements will be sent to board members when finalized. Accounts Payable The December accounts payable statements were unavailable due to IS problems, also. These will also be sent to board members when finalized, and checks won't be paid until the report goes to board members.

The seminar will be held on March 16, 1998. The seminar costs for travel, food and lodging will be paid by the Minnesota Department of Public Safety through the Safe and Sober project. The purpose of the seminar is to enhance the development and delivery of safety belt • usage enforcement.

There are several reasons for this request and I like would to enumerate them: • 1. The operations of the police department have grown to the extent that an additional vehicle will soon become necessary. The department has nine vehicles for policing purposes. All nine are used on a day to day basis. We do not have any back -up vehicles for breakdowns, court or training activities and, therefore, operate short many times. 2. The trend in policing is for chiefs to receive a car allowance in lieu of a city provided vehicle to relieve the perception by the public of an abuse of public property if the vehicle is used for private needs. 3. The thrust of my job has changed from operations to administration and, therefore, the type of vehicle needed has changed. I believe that, since the police department needs an additional vehicle, this is the most • economical means by which to fill the need. We will not have to come up with the nearly $29,000.00 necessary to add a vehicle, and, this serves to reduce the city's liability since I will provide the vehicle, gasoline, maintenance and insurance through the vehicle allowance. Currently, yearly cost of a vehicle in the police department is amortized as follows: Hastings Yearly Vehicle Replacement Cost $4,650.00 Insurance $ 386.00 Maintenance $ 500.00 Gasoline $ 525.00 Total $6,061.00 Vehicle Allowance $4,200.00 &35o "-MmAO Savings Per Year $1,861.00 Communities Providing Vehicle Allowances: (Please note: this information was tabulated in 1995) Golden Valley $423.00 Hastings $375.00 • Lakeville $375.00 Mankato $420.00 Richfield $400.00 Maplewood $450.00 Woodbury $350.00 Blaine $300.00 (will be adjusted when new chief is hired) Burnsville $200.00 (has not been adjusted since mid 1970's) Eden Prairie $200.00 (currently under review) Roseville $425.00 L C 0 Hutchinson City Center 111 Ha n Stced SE Hutchinson, MN 55350 -2522 320 - 587- 5151/Fm 320- 2344240 MEMORIP6 1: UM TO: Gary Plotz, City Administrator FROM: John P. Rodeberg, Director of Engineering/Public Works RE: Vehicle Allowance DATE: December 11, 1997 It has been almost 3 years since I began utilizing my private vehicle for work and receiving a vehicle allowance. It has not increased from the original allowance of $200 in that time. A salary survey completed by the City Engineer's Association for January of 1997 tracks the salary's • and benefits of City Engineer's for 50 communities. Some of the results: ► All but 1 city provided a vehicle or paid an allowance ► 7 cities gave take -home vehicles/7 utilized pool vehicles ► The average of the 26 cities noting a cash allowance amount was $233 Based on the above information, I am requesting consideration of an increase to $220 (a 3.2% annual adjustment). • Premed m recycled papa - • Memorandum TO: Gary Plotz, City Administrator FROM: Brenda Ewing, Human Resources Coordinator RE: Car Allowance Information DATE: March 2, 1998 John Rodeberg provided me with information collected by the City Engineers' Association of Minnesota (CEAM) regarding car allowances for engineers throughout Minnesota.

S ' • t � • MEMORANDUM March 9, 1998 To: Mayor & City Council From: Marilyn J. Swanson, Administrative Secretary Mr. Woody Lamprecht stopped by City Center to discuss with me two concerns he had regarding the above topic. He requested that the following information be available to the City Council for the March 10 public informational meeting. First, it may be necessary to change the date of the Oktoberfest to either September 12 or September 26 inasmuch as Mr. Lamprecht has not been successful in booking a band on September 19. He wondered if this would be a problem. Second, the tent company would like to erect the tent in the parking lot the day prior to the event (Friday) and dismantle it the day thereafter (either Sunday or Monday). He would like confirmation that this arrangement would be agreeable with the City Council prior to renting the tent. Also, the tent will be anchored with 50 -pound weights where each stake would normally go into the ground. Trivia Information I inquired why the event is scheduled in September rather than October when it is called an Oktoberfest. The explanation is that in Munich, Germany the Oktoberfest starts on September 18 and lasts for two weeks. cc: Woody Lamprecht John Rodeberg, Dir. of Eng.

Nicotine has been found to be as addictive as heroin, cocaine and alcohol. (MDH and the American Academy of Pediatrics) Tobacco use is the single leading preventable cause of death in the U.S. It kills more than 400,000 people in the U.S. each year (that's 1,100 Americans each day or one every 75 seconds) —more people than AIDS car crashes, alcohol, homicides, illegal drugs, suicides, and fires, combined. (Coalition on Smoking OR Health, 2/95. American Academy of Pediatrics) Childeen and Tobacco In the U.S. today, an estimated 4.5 million children and adolescents smoke. Tobacco use among female adolescents remains higher than among male adolescents. One out of three adolescents in the U.S. is using tobacco by the age of 18. Approximately one out of three of these young people will die prematurely as a result. More than 3,000 young people become regular smokers each day in the U.S. The average teen -age smoker begins to smoke at age 14' /z and becomes a daily smoker before age 18. Each year, another one million young people become regular smokers. 89% of people who try a cigarette will do so by age 18. 71% of people who ever smoke were smoking daily by age 18. Cigarette smoking is increasingly common in younger children. In 1990, the average age of a child who tried cigarettes was 1 1.6 years. The smoking prevalence in Minnesota for 12' graders is 39% and for adults is 22 %. In McLeod County, the weekly cigarette use for 6 graders is 5 %, for 9 graders is 14% and for lf graders is 26 %. The weekly tobacco use (includes all types of tobacco) for 6` graders is 5 %, for 9" graders is 16% and for I f h graders is 32 %. Among smokers ages 12 to 17 years, 70% already regret their decision to smoke and 66% say that they want to quit. F 'j 1. A I Approximately three- quarters of young people who use tobacco products daily report that they use it because they find "it's really hard to quit." Among high school seniors, 73% who think they won't be smoking in five years still are. (American Academy of Pediatrics) The younger a child is when he or she starts using tobacco products, the more likely the child is to become addicted to nicotine /cigarettes. According to one study, 67% of children who initiated smoking in the sixth grade became regular adult smokers, while only 46% of teenagers who started smoking in the eleventh grade became regular adult smokers. More than 90% of young people, who use tobacco daily, experience at least one symptom of withdrawal. Self- Service One study found that 67% of teen - agers, whose mean age was 15 years, were asked no questions when they attempted to purchase cigarettes. A study by the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine found that over 40% of grade school students who smoked daily shoplifted cigarettes, at some time, from self - service displays. Smokeless tobacco Many young people think smokeless tobacco is safer than smoking cigarettes. But, because the tobacco is in the mouth for minutes at a time, more harmful chemicals can enter your body than when you smoke. In 1970, young men ages 17 -19 used spit tobacco the least of any age group. Today, usage by men of these ages is the highest of any age group, with one million adolescent boys currently using spit tobacco, according to Health and Human Services. More than one in ten high school students (11.4 %) had used smokeless tobacco during the 30 days prior to responding to a 1995 survey. State prevalence varied from 3% to 25 %. Nearly one in five male students (19.7 %) had used smokeless tobacco during the thirty days before the survey was conducted. Among high school seniors who ever used smokeless tobacco, almost three - fourths began in ninth grade. Leukoplakia —a disease of the mouth characterized by white patches and oral lesions on the checks, gums and /or tongue which can lead to oral cancer, occurs in over half of smokeless tobacco users in the first three years of use. Studies have found that 60 -78% of smokeless tobacco users have oral lesions. Only one -half of individuals affected by oral cancer will be alive 5 years after diagnosis. The risk of developing oral cancer for long -term spit tobacco users is 50 times greater than for non - users. 1R .ja The Cost of Tobacco Vse Estimated health costs for smoking - attributable diseases, including costs of hospitals, physicians and health care professionals, nursing homes, and 0 At"Fl. �v medications, based on 1995 costs, were more than $513 million in 1995. Cigarettes cost the American public more than $100 billion each year in health care costs and lost productivity. (Coalition on Smoking OR Health). In 1995, the economic cost of smoking in Minnesota amounted to an estimated $1.3 billion. This estimate can be broken down to: approximately 40% for medical care costs provided for tobacco - related diseases and injuries and approximately 60% for present value of lost productivity due to illness, injury or premature death from smoking attributable causes. These costs are borne by society. Other emotional and social costs associated with tobacco - related diseases are not included in this estimate. If the 1995 cost estimate was spread out equally among the entire population of Minnesota, the county's cost would be approximately: (using this formula: Estimated 1995 McLeod County Population x Estimated 1995 per capita cost of smoking in Minnesota ($277) = Estimated 1995 Cost Smoking 33,803 McLeod County Residents x $277 = $9,363,431 Sources: The Minnesota Department of Health, Coalition on Smoking OR Health, 2195, American Cancer Society, American Lung Association of Minnesota. 0 Hutchinson City Center 111 Hr n Simi SE Hutchinson, MN 55350.2522 320- 587.515VF" 320. 2344240 C DATE: February 18, 1998 u TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Hutchinson Planning Commission SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION TO BEGIN ANNEXATION OF 441 ACRES LOCATED IN LYNN TOWNSHIP.

No. 24329 Job No. 98041 r1 \J • RESOLUTION NO. /O 99Z THIS RESOLUTION is made and entered into this /o day of March, 1998, by the Hutchinson City Council. RECITALS AND FINDINGS: 1. The City of Hutchinson, a Minnesota municipal corporation, is authorized by Minnesota state law to engage in eminent domain proceedings. 2. The City of Hutchinson is presently planning an extension of Fifth Avenue Southeast and in order to complete the extension, acquisition of the following described property is necessary for right -of- way purposes: That part of the West Half of the Northeast Quarter of Section 5, Township 116, Range 29, McLeod County, Minnesota, and that part of Lot 7 of the Auditor's Plat of the West Half of said Section 5 described as a strip 120.00 feet wide and the centerline of said strip is described as beginning at the intersection of the Fast line of Lot 8 in said Auditor's Plat and a line parallel with 673.72 feet North of the East and West quarter line in said Section 5; thence Easterly on said parallel line to a line parallel with and 922.13 feet Easterly of the East line of said Lot 8 and there temninating; North and South lines of said strip are to be lengthened or shortened to meet the east and west boundary lines of said centerline. Contains 2.54 acres more or less. • 3. The City finds that various public purposes will be served by the acquisition of the above described property including but not limited to better traffic movement, improved economic development for the community and the betterment of public health and safety. 4. The above described property, owned by Gary Wetherell and Mary Ann Wetherell is part of a larger parcel, the full legal description of which is as follows: That part of the West Half of the Northeast Quarter of Section 5, Township 116, Range 29, Mcleod County, Minnesota, and that part of Lot 7 of the Auditor's Plat of the West Half of said Section 5 described as beginning at the Northeast comer of Lot 8 of said Auditor's Plat; thence on an assumed bearing of South along the East line of said Lot 8 a distance of 719.75 feet to the centerline of a township road; thence South 64 degrees, 04 minutes, East along said centerline a distance of 944.21 feet; thence North a distance of 1142.40 feet to a point bearing East from the point of beginning; thence West a distance of 849.13 feet to the point of beginning. 5. Said roadway extension will allow more direct truck and vehicle access to businesses and individuals located in the southerly and easterly portions of the community. 5. The City Council finds that the proposed taking does not leave the property owners with an uneconomic remnant since a review of the real estate records, the drawings prepared by the City and arguments of counsel on behalf of the property owners all reveal that the parcels on either side of the proposed right of way will each be a minimum of six (6) acres in size, too large to be considered an • uneconomic remnant. Further, the proposed taking does not directly require the property owners to abandon their business operation and, in addition, the only expert data available to the City, an appraisal report prepared by the Robinson Appraisal Company, does not reflect a finding that an uneconomic 1 / I remnant results from the roadway and right of way taking contemplated by the City Council for the City is of Hutchinson. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council for the City of Hutchinson hereby authorizes City staff including the City attorney or his designee, to commence all necessary actions under Chapter 117 of Minnesota Statutes, or other applicable law to acquire the property described in paragraph 4 as and for roadway and other municipal purposes. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that City staff, including the City attorney or his designee, is authorized to use "quick take" procedures to accomplish the contemplated taking set forth herein.

The ordinance that we drafted in August was somewhat at variance with the revised legal description that I received from Diane Gordon a couple of weeks ago, but at this point I don't believe any further council action is required. If the legal description is an issue, I am certain that Diane Gordon will contact me and we can place the matter back on the agenda at that time, but at least for the present I think we should regard this as a resolved matter and further action is not required by the City. Thank you. Best regards. Very truly yours, ARNOLD, ANDERSON & DOVE, P.L.L.P. G.

Mark McCurdy gave a brief overview of the service he will provide for the city. He will visit each main First Aid Kit on the second Tuesday of every month. It is the responsibility of the city to check and update the First Aid Kits that are in the vehicles. Supplies needed for the vehicle kits can be taken from the main building kits unless the supply in the main kit will be completely depleted. If you need items that the main kits • can not provide leave a note at these kits with the vehicle number and he will leave the supplies at the main kit with the vehicle number on them.

There was extensive discussion on the amount of reimbursement for safety glasses. Connie will try to pull out past records so we can get a better handle on the costs associated with upgrading from regular to safety glasses. The discussion was tabled until we had more information. Within the past month there was a hazardous materials spill with in the City of Hutchinson. It was determined that the people who worked on the spill were not qualified. John Olson sent a memo out to the directors stating OSHA rules and levels of certification for working with hazardous materials. Floyd will contact Brad Emans to put together an outline of the different types of materials and the level of training needed to work with each material. It was also suggested that we have a list for the directors on who • they can call to take care of each type of accident/disposal.

Senator Dille was successful in persuading Senator Johnson to co-sponsor this bill which is probably important in light of the fact that it is my understanding the Senator Johnson has a good working relationship with our friend, Doug Johnson. You will note that Mr. Johnson has declared, at least unofficially, his candidacy for the Office of Governor by filing the necessary papers with the Campaign Finance and Public Disclosure Board.

The significant improvements being made in terms of new equipment, channel additions and new technologies are often the most exciting to learn about Other improvements are perhaps less glamorous, but equally important in our desire to improve service to our customers. Two important changes are happening right now that affect our customers and will help us serve them more efficiently and effectively in the future. First, as part of our centralized billing system review, we have teamed from our customers that it would be preferable to stagger billing due dates during the month to better accommodate our customers and to more effectively respond to customer contacts in a timely fashion. We have accomplished that! Triax Cablevision has made a sizable investment in its new long distance telephone system and has hired and trained additional personnel allowing it to split its customer billing cycles and improve its ability to respond to customers in a timely and efficient manner. We realize, however, that this may not be an easy change for our customers. During this transition, it will result in their receiving a bill for service that extends only to their new closing date. The new closing date will then remain the same month to month. We expect our customer's patience and understanding to be rewarded by the opportunity for Triax to better serve them in the future. The second change is the completion of Triax Cablevision's new Customer Service Standards. You will hear more about this in the future. We have set high levels of performance standards for our company and its employees. These standards exceed FCC Regulations and reflect our commitment to improving this important aspect of our business. It is my hope that this information may be of assistance to you as Triax Cablevision moves forward with these improvements. Sincerely, om B well 0374749.01 R ED MAR 3 -1998 CITY OF Hui Ch,iVSON STATE REPRESENTATIVE MAR 3 -1996 BOB NESS CITY OF HUTCHINSON tare tcc Building, onstituuon Ave., St. Paul, MN 55155 (612) 296-43TT For Immediate Release For more information contact: February 26, 1998 Becca Pryse (296-9469) NEWS RELEASE McLEOD COUNTY WAGERS $2.8 NULLION ON GAMBLING ST. PAUL — Gambling is a major concern for many and millions of dollars are spent on this activity in our counties, according to Representative Bob Ness (R- Dassel). Figures were recently released from the Minnesota Lottery detailing the fiscal impact gambling has on the residents of the state and the amount of prizes awarded. Lottery gambling in District 20A, which includes McLeod and Meeker Counties, was $3 million with $2.5 million spent on scratch -off games and $541,000 spent on number games. The figures provided include Powerball, Gopher 5, Daily 3 and instant scratch -off tickets. Not included in the report are charitable pulltabs, raffles, tip - boards, paddle wheels, bingo or money wagered at Indian casinos. "Many people want to know where all this money spent on gambling ends up," said Ness. Here's a breakdown for gambling in our area for 1997: • $208,773 went to the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund • $325,395 went to the state's General Fund • $1,569,034 went out in prizes • $156,202 went to commissions for lottery retailers Since 1995, 27 people in our area of the state have won prizes of $5,000 or more from playing the lottery. In Litchfield, 6 individuals received large payout, the biggest winner taking home about $85,000. In Hutchinson, 14 individuals won prizes over $5000, the biggest winner at $100,000. Statewide, lottery sales totaled $368.5 million for state fiscal year 1997. The state's general fund received $63.7 million in net proceeds, unclaimed prizes and compulsive gambling contributions. Additionally, the Environmental Trust Fund received $25.5 million in proceeds. "The amount of money spent by Minnesotans on state lottery games is minor when compared to other types of gambling," said Ness. He points to the Indian casinos where an estimated $4 billion was wagered last year and millions are estimated to have been bet in illegal sports bookmaking. In addition, in Minnesota $1.1 billion annually is wagered on charitable gaming. Indian gaming continues to be a popular activity with residents and tourists. While some tribal- operated casinos make significant profits, others do not and profits are not shared among tribes. This is due to the tribe's sovereign nation status as well as a compact agreement between the state of Minnesota and each tribe. "The casinos may provide for some economic development benefits, but they also add to gambling addiction in this state. It's almost impossible to calculate what the costs are to the state's taxpayers to deal with gambling addicts and to treat those who are willing to get help with their addiction," said Ness. Following is a table showing the amount of money spent on state lottery games in Ness' legislative district, 20A: City Retailers Instant Sales Numbers Game Sales Total Sales Prizes Money to General Fund Money to Env.
