Mr. Art Zabel, 545 Highway 7 West, stated at the May 12 hearing he had asked the Council and City Engineer to look at the present storm sewer drainage on Third and Fourth Avenues. He asked why it wasn't adequate and why the City couldn't save money by getting a larger intake. Mr. Zabel thought the project was a waste of money, and it could be put to better use. There had never been water in the ditch running in front of his house. Hutch Computer Inc. built in a swamp area next to the culvert which has poor drainage. It was his suggestion to extend the Third Avenue sewer line, for which Mr. Zabel would be willing to pay an assessment on the project. Mr. Deforest Wagner, 745 Highway 7 West, commented that the water must go west and not east. He couldn't get through the road because of standing water, and the existing sewer didn't drain Third Avenue. Engineer Anderson remarked that the drainage problem should be resolved if the line on Third Avenue was made larger. It could be considered as an 1988 improvement project. • Alderman Torgerson moved to close the hearing at 8:30 P.M. Motion sec- onded by Alderman Carls and carried unanimously.

We wish to hold a Christian music concert for the youth of the area. The reason we feel that this area is needed is because of the rising problems on Main Street with the youth. We want to portray a godly attitude to the youth who simply "cruse Main" all night looking for something to do. Many find nothing to do and are causing problems. Many are drunk or are using drugs or are simply hanging out on Main Street. The music group is called "Trinity Express" and is made up of students from Trinity Bible College. The students are supervised at all times by a member of the college staff. We would need the use of electricy form a nearby pole. I urge you to help us bring a positive atmosphere to Main Street.

If an assessment is contested or there is an adjourned hearing, the following procedure will be followed: 1.

We are against this project for the following reasons: 1. Our property has already been assessed for two previous storm sewers. If after these two assessments, the problem has not been alleviated, it would seem that it is the city's obligation to correct it at the city's • expense. 2. We have also individually invested money in water- proofing our own basements. 3. Since`we have no water problem, we will not benefit in any way from this improvement. 4. We feel this improvement will only benefit a couple of property owners at the expense of the entire neighbor- hood.

This is a letter of objection to the proposed assessment to my property, Lot 3, Robert's 1st addition, for betting No. 1, Project .No. 87 -01. The notice of the assessment hearing sent by the city administrator for Assessment Roll No. 226, Publication No. 3683, states that the funding for the project is to be assessed to those property owners living in Robert's 1st addition. I am definitely opposed to any portion of the funding for this project being assessed back to the property owners living on Larson Street south of Roberts Road. Three plans, with cost ranging from $525.19 to $1,704.88, are being proposed in the Notification of Hearing sent by the Hutchinson City Administrator. I have owned my home and lived at my present address since 1964. During this 23 year time period I have paid for two storm sewer projects constructed by the city that have proven to be inadequate. The first of these was included in the original cost of my home, and the second in 1970 upon completion of the S.W. Storm Sewer Project. It is my firm conviction that the City of Hutchinson must complete Project No. 87 -01 and be liable for the total cost of such project. Assessing the 14 property owners, who have homes and developed property within the city limits, for Project No. 87 -01 appears to be purely discriminatory. Thank you.

BID PACKAGE #8 As reported, the successful bidder has ceased operations. Second bidder, Star Iron Works. BID PACKAGE #12 The exterior trim material was to be part of this bid package, but was reported to us when they reviewed their contract for signing, that they missed quoting on the exterior trim. By utilizing our takeoff and unit prices from the local lumber yards, the cost of those items as specified is: $74,910.00 $6,785. $81,695.00 $8,233.00 $6,025.00 TELEPHONE (612) 786 -7151 CO — JE, Mayor Paul Acklund June 1, 1987 Page Two 11 The total increase of the above three items is: $17,152.00 Enclosed is an adjusted recap of the Bid Recap presented on April 15, 1987: Total Bid Package: $582,695.00 Accepted Alternated: Alternate #5 (5,000.00) Alternate #7 525.00 Total (4,475.00) General Conditions: Although we received no documentation, we assume you reduced general conditions by $5,000.00.

The question was raised as to the potential of other contractors refusing contracts for their bid amounts and we stated that this was still an unknown until all contracts were signed and returned to our office. We also stated that we felt the only potential was Bid Package #10 (Car entry Instailatio -). Gopher Construction was 1UGT1owfrom the next two bids. They have now informed us that they will require an extra $10,000 to accept their contract. As I feel the loophole that they are referencing may • have been caused by our firm, we are assuring you that this problem is the responsibilit of C.A.M., and will not affect your budget.

The 1981 traffic volume on South Grade Road was 3,870 vehicles per day. • With an assumed average annual traffic growth of 2.5t, present day traffic volume would be on the order of 4,500 vehicles per day in both directions. Approximately half of that volume would be in the eastbound lane. The total roadway width is 44 feet, and by prohibiting parking, two lanes of approach to T.H. 15, each 11 feet in width, could be striped. The additional lane would allow left turaimg, through amd right turning vehicles to segregate into the appropriate lane at the approach to T.H. 15, thereby increasing the capacity of the roadway. Prohibiting parking will improve safety by increasing sight distance and by eliminating the possibility of a parking motorist interferring with through traffic. We recommend that the appropriate ordinance be adopted. Respectfully submitted, LgenekBerson D-IrActor of Engineering Ron Xirchoff .

The energy coordinator of the program will also encourage changes to promote use of the bicycle as a means of trans- portation conservation. The commercial conservation audit program will consist of three (3) phases. Phase one will identify conservation measures, analyze fuel consumption and produce a list of conservation measures. This Phase will be free. Phase II will calculate energy cost, first year savings, and payback for three (3) or four (4) recommendations for $25.00. Phase III will involve technical assistance from the coordin- ator in securing bids from contractors, evaluating and compar- ing bids and setting up loans. This phase is optional and if used, the customer will be charged on an hourly basis for ser- vices rendered. The residential audit program will evaluate for savings using a programmable calculator. This calculated analysis will be free. It could include an infra -red scan if the auditor/ customer feel it's necessary. A blower door test may be per- formed for a $10.00 fee. This service would help many customers realize where major infiltration problems exist. • The bicycle program will work in conjunction with the city in developing bike paths, bike racks and education aimed at encouraging greater bicycle ridership. At various points in the program, an evaluation will take place to determine the programs effectiveness in the community. • 1.9 To the best of my knowledge and belief, data in this application are true and correct, and submission of this application has been duly authorized by the governing body or bodies of the application(&).

Hutchinson and the surrounding area is an important economic activity center for central rural Minnesota. The vitality of Hutchinson is dependent on the energy efficiency of its homes and businesses. As less money is spent for energy consumption, more is available for economic growth. The proposed combina- tion of commercial and residential energy audit programs will identify major areas for energy conservation and assist homeowners and businesses implement cost effective energy saving measures. Hutchinson Utilities has offered a brief checkoff residential energy audit with infra -red analysis. The proposed program will include a more thorough audit in- cluding savings calculations and also a blower door test option to pinpoint actual sources of heat loss. The City of Hutchinson has also offered a commercial energy audit program in 1987. This programs success includes 29 audit requests and 17 businesses surveyed so far. It would be very beneficial to continue it allowing more businesses to use the program to their advantage. With the energy conservation loan fund set up, many businesses can make improvements who otherwise may have been reluctant. Because transportation is a major use of energy, the program will promote increased bicycle ridership as a form of conservation. 2.2 Project objectives, including quantitative indicators, such as numbers of homes or businesses served. Commercial Audit Program Phase I: Individual Consultation /Visit 120 Businesses @ 3 hours each Phase II: Walk Thru Audit 100 Businesses @ 4 hours each 60 Infrareds @ 1.5 hours each • 60 Utility Contacts @ 1.5 hours each 30 Blower Door Tests @ 1.5 hours each Phase III: Follow Up Support 60 Businesses @ 2 hours each Estimated Goal for Savings: Phase I $ 40.00 per month Phase II 50.00 per month Phase III 200.00 per month Phase I Phase II Phase III Businesses 120 100 60 Monthly Savinggs $40.00 $50.00 $200.00 Times 18 Months 18 18 18 Yearly Savings $86,400 $90,000 $216,000 = $392,400 Residential Audit Program 400 Residential Audits @ 2 hours each Estimated Savings: $120 /audit /year x 400 homes = 48,000 TOTAL COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL $440,400 Alternative Transportation Program Objective will be to increase bicycle ridership in Hutchison. Success will be detos- mined by assessing actual number of increased riding hours per capita, before and • after program. 4 a.J AUL& taYU maw.' W.

Hutchinson utilities provides all of the gas and electric utilities within the community. A utility representative, Butch Wentworth, is Chair of the Energy Council. The utility will provide office space for the Energy Coordinator. • The City has a loan committee which will review applications for commercial energy loans. The energy loan money will come from a revolving loan fund. The Coordinator, CEC Chair, City Administrator and Mayor will be liaisons as appropriate between the Energy Council and City Council. 5 0 2.3 Work Plan Commercial Audit Program November 1, 1987* - November 1, 1989 • 1. Promote audit program through utility bill stuffer mailings, service club presentation and radio and newspaper advertising. 2. Loans will be obtained through a revolving loan fund. 3. Evaluation will be done every six (6) months (3 times during grant period) to determine the extent of recommended measures implemented and analysis of cost - benefit and savings projections. 4. Administration: The Energy Coordinator will provide monthly reports to the Department of Public Service and the C.E.C. as to progress of the program. Additional funding will be pursued through banks, Exxon Overcharge Funds, APPA grants and program fees for services to expand or continue any portions of the pro- gram the C.E.C. wishes to pursue. Residential Audit Program November 1, 1987* - November 1, 1989 1. Promote residential audit program in same manner as commercial program. 2. Loans may be applied for through local lending institutions. 3. Evaluation will take place every six (6) months (3 times during grant period.) • 4. Administration: Monthly reports will be supplied to Department of Public Service and the C.E.C. on progress. Alternative Transportation Program November 1, 1987* - November 1, 1989 Efforts will be made to identify ways to increase use of the bicycle for commuting and recreation. Possible actions include: Work with the city street department to create marked bicycle trails on existing roadways or widen road for trails. Pursue funding to install bike racks at key locations. Study extent of present bicycle use and project savings by increased usage. Develop educational program'in schools for promoting safe bicycle ridership. Evaluation will occur at the end of the grant cycle period. * Grant cycle 3 will begin when Grant Cycle I program is completed. r � LJ 0 0 0 3.1 FIRST' YEAR BLiDGEr If proposing more than one project, prepare a total budget and separately labelled budgets for each project using this format.

The City Council, as part of approving this program and application, has approved a $2,700 contribution as matching funds. (See cover letter.) The Community Development Corporation has approved $75,000 of commercial loan funds to be used, first in the tax increment district and then outside the district from repaid monies. The Hutchinson Utilities Commission has agreed to the arrangements and contributions to the program stated in this application. (See appendix 4 for a letter of support from the Utility.) The Energy Council will also explore APPA Demonstration grants, EXXON overcharge funds and fees for services to contribute to the program. A n Applicant experience. (If appropriate, describe applicant's past or • current experience in conducting energy - related community programs.) The City of Hutchinson and staff have considerable experience in applying for and administering various federal and state grants. These range from HUD grants to DOT grants to LAWCON park and recreation grants. In specific regard to energy conservation grants, in 1977 to 1978, the city performed the administration of approximately 35 rehabilitation grants of private homes with energy conservation the primary objective. Hutchinson is currently administering a FY87 -Cycle 1 Community Energy Council Grant as the H.C.E.C. Small Business Energy Program. This commercial energy audit program has experienced a positive response from the business community. 5.0 Evaluation (Describe how applicant will evaluate whether objectives have been met and how energy savings will be evaluated.) (See attached evaluation) • 5.0 EVALUATION The Energy Coordinator will follow -up a representative sampling of businesses to determine energy conservation improvements made by participating businesses. Energy savings will be totaled to analyze benefits of the program. The number of participants in each phase and the amount of energy loans made, will be tabulated and compared to goals. on an ongoing basis, feedback will be solicted from businesses to improve the program services. The residential program will also be evaluated at the end of the first 12 months and then at the end of the grant period. A number of home owners will be contacted to determine total conservation measures implemented and their fuel usage compared to before the audit, to evaluate acutal savings. The Alternative Transportation Program will document activities accomplished and estimate total savings from increased alternative transportation usage. 0 • • ADD*ndix 1 (RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING HCEC ATTACHLD) RESOLUTION 8249 ESTABLISHING A HUTCHINSON COMMUNITY ENERGY COUNCIL WHEREAS, the City of Hutchinson promotes the conservation •and efficient use of energy resources and the use of renewable energy resources within the City; and WHEREAS, Energy Conservation should be viewed as an Economic Dm�,lopment activity which promotes efforts to keep energy cosCQ" down and maintains efficient um of natural resources; NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of Hutchinson that this city shall establish a Cosunnity Energy Council to participate in the Governor's Community Energy Program and to plan, promote and implement energy conservation efforts within the city.

Utility work on 2nd Ave. S.N. will be completed on Thursday, June 4th. The street restoration Sub- contractor will begin work on 2nd Ave- S.N. and, barring • major weather problems, will have completed restoration by June 20th. The contract specifies 2" of bituminous surfacing, but due to the questionable stability of some areas of soil in the roadway and due to the relatively high volumes of traffic on 2nd Ave., we suggest a pavement thickness of 411. The Contractor has provided a price of $3.34 per square yard for the additional 2" of pavement, which for the area involved, would result in an increased construction cost of about $11,300. With the PCA paying 55 %, the City's portion would cost about $5,085. The quoted price is reasonable and we request authorization to proceed with entering into a Supplemental Agreement with the Contractor to complete the additional work. Fourth Ave. S.K. ast of Glen St, will be paved in 1987. From Glen St. to Grove St., the portion of the 4th Ave. needing to be surfaced is the parking area on the north side of the street. Both 4th Ave. and Grove St. have temporary surfaces. With watermain improvements being desirable and present unstable soil conditions, surfacing options for these two streets include: Alternative 1: Seal Coat applied by public works department in 1987, with estimated costs as follows: Material Labor Equipment Total 4th Ave. S.N. $ 1,857.00 640.00 930.00 $ 3,427.00 Grove Street Totals $ 2,705.00 $ 4,562.00 960.00 1,600.00 1,700.00 2,630.00 $ 5,365.00 $ 8,792.00 Mayor and City Council June 3, 1987 Street Restoration on Relief Sewer Project Page 2 Alternative 1: (cont.) This method of restoration may be justified, even for 4th Ave. East of Grove St. because of the existing temporary surface. Alternative 2: Construct bituminous surfacing in 1987 per contract, with fabric and sufficient aggregate base to stabilize the soil. The pavement thickness per plan is less than the City's design for a permanent street project, and thus is temporary in nature, but would provide a surface equal to or better than that prior to construction. Extra cost would be incurred and a Supplemental Agreement would be needed for fabric and for additional aggregate base. Quotations the Contractor has provided result in estimated additional costs as follows: Fabric Additional Aggregate Base at Contract Price Totals Alternative 3: 4th Ave. S.N. Grove Street Totals $ 2,470.00 $ 6,600.00 $ 9,070.00 2,268.00 7,150.00 9,418.00 $ 4,738.00 $ 13,750.00 $18,488.00 Leave the streets with an aggregate surfacing until 1988, at which time they would be paved. The Contractor has indicated that he would likely need an increase in the paving unit price because of rising costs of bituminous material, which has risen about 30% in the past two months to a current price of $150.00 per ton at the refinery, but there are no projections available for 1988 proces. Possible increase cost is estimated to be $2,000.00. Alternative 4: Leave the roadways with an aggregate surface until 1988, at which time a project would be constructed in accordance with Chapter 429 proceedings and the cost assessed to benefitted properties. Direction of the Council is requested as to the preferred alternative, or any other possibilities.

The easement is needed to enable reconstruction of the east frontage road along T.H. 15 to improve safety. At the May 12th Council Meeting, a contract was awarded for the project, contingent upon the City obtaining the easement. • Negotiations with the owner of the tract have resulted in the owner stating that they would be willing to sign an easement provided that the consideration include payment by the City of legal fees incurred by the owner in reviewing and signing the easement. Since there are a number of partners, apparently two lessees, and a trustee, all having an interest in the parcel, the owner contends that their legal costs could be considerable. The owner would be willing to document their legal costs, with the stipulation that they not exceed $2,500.00. We request authorization to proceed with negotiating an easement with consideration being reimbursement of paying actual documented legal costs not to exceed $2,500.00.

Currently the candle power, which registers on the light meter, ranges from 3 -8 throughout the courts and a recommended candlepower for tennis courts is 25 -30. Bids have been taken and two options considered. (a) provide light fixtures and install on existing poles at a cost of $5,600. (b) provide light fixtures and add four additional poles to allow for proper placement at a cost of $9,850 The board recommends option (a) as an immediate solution since only material is involved and poles could be relocated in the future if absolutely necessary. They also felt that the city should fund the project in view of the fact that the Tennis Associ- ation has donated considerable time and money towards the courts in the past. A suggested method of financing is from the park dedication fund. klm ?-d I Parks 0 Recreation a Forestry • Civic Arena 900 Harrington street 0 Hutchinson, Minnesota 55350 • (612) 587 -2975 T0: Mayor 6 City Council FROM: Bruce Ericson, Parks b Recreation Director DATE: June 3, 1987 SUBJECT: Civic Arena /Pool Manager Job Review With the addition of the new recreation facility, several positions required change in order to properly staff and operate the facilities. The most significant change was made when the additional responsibilities relating to the pool were included in arena manager, Mary Haugen's position. In order to make this a workable situation other minor changes were made to free some of his time in the summer as well as the winter. These changes relate to the shifting daily operational procedures to maintenance personnel as well as part time personnel. The responsibilities connected with the pool manager re- quired additional knowledge as well as adding to the complexity of the position. *public contact has been greatly increased. *supervision of seasonal personnel has also increased. These seasonal personnel require special training to qualify for employment. *he optained a Certified Pool Operators certificate through schooling with the American Red Cross *additional responsibilities are also connected with the operation of the pool equipment, water chemistry and other safety factors. *decisions are made on a dailiy basis which affect the successful operation of the program and facility. Currently the arena /pool manager positon is classified in pay grade (G) according to the city pay plan. Due to the nature of the changes this position has enclountered, I feel a reclassification is justified and would suggest a move up one grade to grade (F). Since the classification of a position deals with responsibilities, rather than performance, this move would not require an adjustment in pay. All monetary considerations are considered during an employees annual review and directly connected with performance. This procedure will continue to be followed and the reclassification would deal only with the placement of the position in the proper pay grade. q ' L (612) 587.5151 Harty/ CITY OF HUTCHINSON • 3.7 WASHINGTON AVENUE WEST HUTCHINSON.

DATE: June 3, 1987 • TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Director of Engineering SUBJECT: Sanitary Sewer and Appurtenances Improvement Project Gentlemen: I have studied the following areas and find that the proposed project is feasible and recommend it be constructed. If acceptable, I recommend a hearing be held on the 23rd day of June, 1987. PROJECT 110. 87 -36: Construction of Sanitary Sewer and Appurtenances on the Easterly side of Golf Course Road (C.S.A.R. 12) from 300 feet South of County Road 76 to Oakwood Lane. The estimated assessable cost was determined based on the ultimate service area of the proposed sanitary sewer and the ratio of it to the area of Oakwood Addition. The ultimate service area, as shown on the attached drawing, is about 85 acres, of which 9.3 acres is in Oakwood Addition. That ratio of the estimated total cost results in the assessable cost shown below, which when distributed equally to the ten lots in Oakwood Addition, results in $600.00 per lot. The Petition for this project included a statement by the owners that they not • be required to connect to the sewer. City Ordinance Section 325:00 does require connection to sanitary sewer by dwellings where .sewer is available. In addition, the ordinance requires that septic tanks and cesspools that are no longer in use, be filled to ground surface within 90 days after their use is discontinued.

It appears that the main sanitary sewer was originally a private sewer and was installed by agreement in 1933. A copy of the agreement is attached hereto for reference. The owners of the property have requested that since the City has provided maintenance on the main sewer line and since the main sewer line has been treated as a municipal sewer almost from the time of the agreement, the City should formally adopt the sewer line as a municipal service. I have discussed the facts with Gene Anderson and it does appear that the line in question has been treated as a municipal sewer service for many years. Therefore, since it was the original intention of the agreement to turn over maintenance and control of the line to the City of Hutchinson and in fact the City has exer- cised that maintenance and control, it is appropriate to formalize the municipalities control and responsibilities with respect to the sanitary line. _/ ) 1 Mr. Plotz June 4, 1987 page 2 Resolution which is enclosed with this I have drafted a proposed reciate it if you would correspondence.

That sewer has been used and maintained as though it is a City sewer and an agreement made in 1933 between the owners of abutting properties and the City provided for eventual control of the sewer by the City. The entire situation surfaced through the sale of one of the adjacent parcels of property. Official City control of the sewer would improve loan possibilities when ownership of abutting parcels changes. We recommend that the resolution prepared by the City Attorney, be adopted. EA /pv attachment 0 Respectfully submitted, lk Eugen Anderson Director of Engineering RESOLUTION NUMBER 8552 PUBLICATION NUNIDER Property owners adjacent to a private sewer now located on Grove Street have requested that the City of Hutchinson adopt and maintain the main line of the sanitary sewer as part of the munici- pal sanitary sewer system in accordance with a private sewer agreement dated August 31, 1933. It appears that the City of Hutchinson has, for an indefinite period of time, provided basic maintenance services to the main sanitary sewer line referred to above. Based upon the foregoing and all of the files and records herein IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED: 1. The City of Hutchinson accepts, pursuant to the agreement • of August 31, 1933, the main line sanitary sewer running from Washington Avenue to the cul -de -sac north of Washington Avenue located entirely on or under Grove Street as part of the sanitary sewer system to be operated and maintained as a city facility, con- sistent with normal city policies and practices. 2. The acceptance is specifically limited to the main line sanitary sewer located within the public right -of -way and specifi- cally does not include sanitary sewer service lines, whether located on public right -of -way or otherwise, which connect to the main line sanitary sewer and extend to the private properties adjoining or served by the main line. Ownership and maintenance -1- 0 responsibilities of the service lines which provide an outlet for • sanitary sewage from individual properties rests and will continue to rest solely with the affected property owner. 3. Acceptance by the City of the main line sanitary sewer as a city facility does not waive the right of the City to levy spe- cial assessments pursuant to Chapter 429 of Minnesota Statues or otherwise for sanitary sewer improvements to properties abutting Grove Street or to properties otherwise affected by the sanitary • sewer improvements. 4. Specifically included among the properties served by the main line sanitary sewer adopted and incorporated as part of the municipal sewer sanitary sewer service is that parcel of property described as follows: Beginning at a point on the East line of Lot 8, Block 39, North Half of City of Hutchinson, McLeod County, Minnesota, 70.00 feet South of the Northeast Corner of said Lot 8; thence South along the East line of said Lot 8 for a distance of 66.00 feet; thence Westerly on a line parallel with the North line of said Lot 8 to a point on the West line of said Lot 8 a distance of 136.00 feet South of the Northwest Corner of said Lot 8; thence North along the West line of said Lot 8 to a point 70.00 feet South of the Northwest Corner of said Lot 8; thence East to the point of beginning.

L Falready At the Hutchinson Junior - Senior High School the parking lot will be fully ck topped during the summer of 1987. In addition to staff parking that has 0 0 been assigned there will be additional staff parking made available t' the teachers on g p parkin s aces on the south side of the new addition near the p area. This may eliminate some of the parking problem on Stoney Point Road or Boulder Street. If in 1988 school year the parking problem continues the following areHR suggestions from myself that we may want to look into. One alternative of course • is to restrict all parking on the residential streets on a predetermined area in and around the Hinh School. Plan two would be to restrict parking on one side of the street in and around the residential area near the High School. In Plan three probably the most sensible plan would be to restrict or no parking either side of the street between the hours of 7 am and 4 pm, Monday through Friday. Any of the suggested plans should eliminate the parking problem. It would be my recommendation to wait until the 1988 school year to see if a problem still exists when the proposed parking changes are completed at the High School. If we are experiencing complaints and a problem does exist I believe the 1988 City Council could take action which would alleviate any further problems by looking into either of the three plans proposed. • DAVID H.

The signal was recently activated and the City has received a number of concerns from citizens. The west approach has both • horizontal and vertical curves, there is extraneous lighting from commercial areas in the background of the signals, and since this is the first traffic signal that the motorist would encounter upon entering the City on an otherwise through highway, the signal tends to violate driver expectancy. Also, the west approach is presently signed for a SS m.p.h. speed. We strongly recommend that advance signal warning signs be installed, in particular, a "signal ahead (symbol)" sign and a "signal ahead (plaque)" sign.

SSS -3rd Ave. N.N. Hutchinson, MN 55350 Dear Mr. Cornell: FOR YOUR INFORMATION As we discussed in our telephone conversation on May 29th, the storm sewer project that was proposed by this department in an attempt to mitigate stormwater runoff onto your parking area, was not approved by the City Council at its May 26th meeting. The Council did, however, direct that the runoff problem, together with the reconstruction of 3rd Avenue Northwest, be proposed as a project for construction in 1988, in which case public hearings for those improvements would be held in late 1987 or early 1988. To determine a temporary solution to the problem, I contacted the District Hydraulic Engineer for the Minnesota Department of Transportation and suggested that the north end of the culvert beneath the highway be partially blocked, thereby detaining a portion of heavy runoff in the north highway ditch until high flow has drained through the culvert and subsided, after which the north ditch would slowly drain. The District Hydraulic Engineer said that he would investigate the feasibility of such a solution and advise me. I will inform you of his conclusions.

Carlson, Chairman, Hutchinson Charter Commission 585 Lincoln Avenue Hutchinson, MN 55350 Dear Mr. Carlson: This letter is in response to your request that the proposed draft of a revised home rule charter for the city of Hutchinson be reviewed by me and that I submit my comments on the draft. I apologize for the substantial delay between your request letter and the receipt of these comments. As you know, legislation seems to get priority when the legislature is in session. These comments are offered for consideration of the charter commission. The • draft seems to be in conformity with modern principles of charter drafting and generally seems to be a very workable document. However, the rest of my comments will almost entirely be of a critical nature since observations about those sections which seem satisfactory would unnecessarily lengthen this letter; as a consequence these comments are largely confined to those sections about which questions might be raised or which might conceivably be improved. The charter commission may find itself in disagreement with particular comments. This is to be expected since such comments often reflect the personal views of the writer based upon his experience in the field of municipal government. Furthermore, anyone commenting on a charter from a distance must do so with the theoretical charter in mind and not from the vantage point of a local citizen who is thoroughly familiar with the community for which the document was designed. It should be noted too, that because the Hutchinson draft charter is in many respects identical to the model charter prepared by the League of Minnesota Cities, some of the these comments do in fact criticize the provisions of the model charter and suggest changes in it. Section by Section Comments Section 2.01. This section refers to the plan of government as the mayor- council plan. However, the draft you submitted to me for comments gives the city administrator essentially the powers of a manager under the model charter. Thus, the administrator has general responsibility for the administration of the city affairs as well as the power to hire and fire and enter certain contracts on behalf of the city. This is an efficient and generally salutary means of accomplishing city administration and the comment is I B3 university avenue east, st. paul, minnesota 55101 (612)227-5600 • Charles Carlson May 21, 1987 Page 2 not criticizing that arrangement. However, most students of municipal government would refer to such an arrangement as the council - administrator plan. For political reasons, you may decide not to do this. However, the reference to the mayor - council plan, may cause some confusion. Section 2.05. The sentence might better read: "the only appointive officer of the city, excluding members of boards or commissions established herein or by ordinance, to be selected by the city council, shall be the city administrator. He or she shall be appointed by majority vote of the council. Section 2.06. Under the draft charter which you have submitted for my examination, the mayor is not the chief executive officer. The city administrator is. I would suggest the substitution of the word "primary ceremonial" for the words "chief executive" in the second line of the section. I would suggest substituting the word "presiding officer" for the word "president" in the second line from the bottom of the page in the left hand column on page 2. Section 2.08. This section purports to authorize the council to fix its salary by ordinance after a public hearing. However, M.S. 415.11 provides: • "Notwithstanding the provisions of any general or special law, charter, or ordinance, the governing body of any statutory or home rule charter city of the second, third. or fourth class may by ordinance fix their own salaries as members of such governing body, and the salary of the chief executive officer of such city in such amount as they deem reasonable. Subd. 2. No change in salary shall take effect until after the next succeeding municipal election." The purpose of your section 2.08 may have been to establish a hearing requirement and to dispense with the need to wait for the effective date of the ordinance until after the next succeeding municipal election. However, in view of the mandatory nature of M.S. 415.11, it appears that your charter language would be ineffective. Section 3.02. This section provides for a secretary of the council. Whether this individual is an officer or just an employee, the fact that the appointment is made by the council may raise some confusion. If it is the commission's intent to have the council make this appointment, perhaps it would be best to include the secretary of the council in the authority of section 2.05. On the other hand, there appears little reason to depart from your general procedure whereby the city administrator makes appointments of municipal officers an employees and then is in his turn responsible to the council for the performance of all of these areas of the city administration. Section 3.03. In the last sentence of the section the words "these rules" appearing in the third line from the bottom should be replaced by "this charter, or ordinances enacted pursuant to it." isSection 3.04 requires a majority vote of all the members of the council for passage of resolutions, as well as for passage of ordinances. Many cities allow resolutions to be passed by a lesser number of affirmative votes on the theory that resolutions are not normally of great such consequence as matters required Charles Carlson May 21, 1987 Page 3 to be handled by ordinance. In most of the cities of the state, a majority of those voting on an issue so long as a quarum is present, is sufficient to pass a resolution. You may prefer to leave this section as it is written and certainly that would be workable but might delay some actions when absences from council meetings occur. Section 4.01. This section as drafted places a requirement for the publications and posting of a sample ballot, after the phrase "but failure to give such notice shall not invalidate the election. Trouble might be avoided if the sample ballot publication and posting requirement would put in front of the phrase and and if the phrase were expanded to read "but failure to give such notice or to make such publication or posting shall not invalidate the election." Section 5.02. In the seventh line down from the top of this section, between the words five and voters, you might consider inserting the word registered. That might clarify the issue and avoid controversy over whether certain people are eligible petitioners. It is sometimes difficult to determine whether people who are not registered voters are in fact eligible voters or as in the case of this language, voters. An argument might be made that voters who are domiciled outside the municipality are entitled to bring such a petition, unless the word voters is somehow qualified. Section 5.08. I am enclosing a short memorandum on the council role in recall. It does not suggest any changes in the way you have drafted your recall provisions. However, it may enlighten the commission as to how the recall provision may work. Section 6.01. This section provides that the administrator need not be a resident of the city at the time of his appointment, but may reside outside the city while in office only with the approval of the council. With the enactment of M.S. 415.16, it is not clear whether that section can be effective. Subdivision 1 of that statute states that "Notwithstanding any contrary provision of other law, home charter, ordinance or resolution, no statutory or home rule charter city or county shall require that a person be a resident of the city or county as a condition of employment by the city or county except for positions which by their duties require the employee to live on the premises of the person's place of employment." I suppose some argument might be made that the city administrator's duties are such that virtual 24 hour availability within the city is essential for the occupation. On the other hand, I don't think those arguments would prevail in court if challenged. You might still want to include this language, recognizing the problematic nature of its effectiveness, arguing that it might be persuasive to the person occupying that position of city administrator. Charles Carlson May 21, 1987 Page 4 Section 6.02, Subdivision 5. The subdivision is not set off in a separate paragraph as are the rest of the subdivisions. In addition, council power to exercise its discretion to exclude the administrator from any meeting at which his removal is considered may not be effective under the open meeting law, unless the council, on advice of its attorney, invokes the attorney- client privilege. This would not seem to be a reason to delete the language but the city should recognize the possible conflict with the statewide open meeting law. Section 6.05. In the sixth line down from the top, the amount of purchases by the administrator. without city council approval are to be set by "policy ". These criteria would be better set by ordinance, which is a specific kind of enactment provided by the city charter. section 11.02. In the third line, you might want to consider the substitution of the word "registered" for the word "qualified" when describing voters who are eligible for appointment to the utility commission. Registered voters are a more defined group than qualified voters, and registration would be a simple process if there was any doubt as to whether a perspective appointee meets the criteria of the charter. This is a policy question. Section 11.04. Just past the middle of the section, the commission is required to buy all material, supplies and fuel in accordance with the charter provisions for purchases and contracts. You may want to clarify whether the city administrator is authorized to make purchases below a certain dollar amount which might be established by ordinance for the commission as well as for the city or whether some other employee of the commission is so authorized. Section 11.05. You may want to provide authorization for transfers of additional payments to the city from the utility fund in lieu of taxes which might be paid if the utility were a private entity. Section 11.07. This section does not clearly define whether the council or the commission is to select the certified public accountant who audits the commission. Certainly the mayor and council should have ultimate power to check up on the activities going on within the entire city government structure, but you may want to provide for ordinarily selecting the auditor through commission action. This could be done by dropping the period at the end of the section and adding the words "selected by the commission, unless prior to January 1 in any year the city council designates a certified public accountant to audit the activities of the commission for the next succeeding calendar year. Section 12.03A. Since the city administrator is a co- signer on instruments and contracts of the city, it would seem reasonable to add the administrator along with the mayor among those officials mandatorily required to be bonded. Of course, by ordinance any treasurer or other financial officer having more direct . custody of the funds should also be bonded but your charter language appears to adequate to deal with that. Charles Carlson • May 21, 1987 Page 5 Section 12.12. Carryover and transition are discussed in the following comments. Comments on Specific Questions Raised in Your Letter of February 19 Question 1. You asked whether it 1s important that the charter does not prohibit the appointment of one person to more than one city board. In my own opinion, it is not wise to prohibit entirely some overlapping membership on different municipal boards. Many cities have found that when there is no overlapping membership, communications between different boards and commissions are poor. In fact, many cities make it a practice to have one or more members of the council sit as a member on each of the important operating and advisory boards to provide that overlapping communication. Most city attempts at improving communication by providing for non - voting liaison attendance or membership on various boards have not been successful in that the non - voting member often gets discouraged and fails to follow the board to which he or she is assigned as liaison. Thus, unless provision is made for city staff to facilitate that kind of communication that you want to achieve, some overlapping membership is often salutary. • Question 2 relates to Section 2.04. You indicate that you want your present councilmembers to continue in office as previously elected. You ask whether Section 2.02 and Section 12.12 accomplish that goal. I think the answer is that they do not do so, at least not clearly. Section 12.12 states that present officers of this city continue in their office until the proposed revisions have been adopted. This implies that their term of office ends with the adoption of the charter. The language in Section 2.04 stating that the term of office of each elective officer shall begin the first business day of January following his election and shall continue until this successor is elected and qualified could be construed to apply only to those officers elected under the new charter. Thus, it could be argued that you have no officers between the time of adoption of the charter and the first buiness day of January following the first election of officers conducted under the charter. You might clarify this matter by providing in Section 12.12 that they continue to govern until their normal terms expire and their successors under this new charter are elected and qualified. I assume that the number of councilmembers and the participation of the mayor on the council carryover and continue much as was the case under your existing charter so that if you allow the existing terms of office to run their course, you will have proper numbers of councilmembers elected in the right year. If not, you will have to examine that issue and provide for it. Question 3, Section 3.06. You questioned whether four votes on an emergency • ordinance when you have a five member council is appropriate. In my opinion, it is appropriate to require such an extraordinary majority on emergency ordinances Charles Carlson May 21, 1987 Page 6 as one means of seeing to it that the emergency ordinance does not become the primary means of enacting ordinances, thus defeating the processes you have set up for normal enactment. Though it 1s possible to envision emergency situations in which it is difficult or impossible to assemble the necessary four members of the council to take emergency action, or even a situation when sufficient members of councilmembers do not exist to pass on emergency ordinance, in my opinion, those prospects are remote enough to be outweighed by a process of adoption which promotes use of the regular ordinance adoption system. You could permit adoption by four or by a "favorable vote of all the members of the council" if you fear inability to act because of vacancies. Question 4, Section 5.08. You note that you decided to leave recall in the charter and ask whether the wording is all right. I cannot propose any changes in the language which would improve the chances of making the recall provision effective. The Jacobson case, mentions in the enclosure. does pose some roadblocks to the effectiveness to the recall provision. However, you might retain the section as it is written in hopes of using it as the city of Duluth used theirs with the citizenry being the judges of malfeasance or misfeasance in office. At least. it might work if not challenged in the courts. • Question 5, Section 6.5. You asked whether the section should state the amount which the city administrator may purchase without council approval. In my opinion, fixing that amount by ordinance is a flexible and reasonable means of proceeding. Question 6, Section 7.01. You asked whether it is a state law that there be an annual audit by a certified public accountant. The answer is yes and it is prescribed by M.S. 471.697, subd. 1(c). Question 7, Section 11.2. You asked whether the wording of your section on appointment of utility commission members accomplishes your purposes of allowing present charter members to serve out their terms while providing for their successors to be appointed in greater numbers for a slightly shorter term. I think your language will achieve its intended result, though it could be clarified. Is it your intent to go to a five member commission as soon as the charter is adopted and the council can make the additional two temporary appointments or to gradually achieve the five member commission by appointing a new member each year? If this gradual approach were taken, the council ' >. appointee selected every second year would simply take the place of an '61d•" commission member whose term under the old charter is expiring. In any case, it would be wise to specify which approach you intend to use. If you intend 'to use the immediate expansion approach, you might, in line four, before the words "a member shall" insert the words "after initial appointments for such terms as are set by the council, ". • Question 8, Section' 12.12, was previously answered. Your final question is whether the requirement of`M.S. 410.05 relating to the filing of an annual report of the charter commission with the chief judge should be complied with. Since the statute purports to require such a report, it would Charles Carlson May 21, 1987 Page 7 be vise to prepare and file one. It might be composed primarily of newspapers articles following the activities of the charter commission. As a practical matter, I think the statute is commonly honored more in the breach that in the observance and I know of no bad consequences that result, except that the district court judges tend to ignore their duties under the statute with regard to charter commissions. I hope these comments are of use to you and again I apologize for the delay in their submission. Should you have any further questions or need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. Hopefully with the end of the legislative session we can be more prompt in our service.

The Duluth provision is not limited in its terms to incidents of nonfeasance or malfeasance in office. however, on the strength of the case „Jacobsen v. Nagel and as recommended by the city attorney, the city council in that recent case involving former coincilor Thomas Agnew, permitted a recall election only in circumstances where malfeasance aVuably was involved. In that case, the petition alleged fowrreasons for the recall, three of which related to matters of judgment and quality of performance. How- ever, an election was called only to decide whether there should be :.:_:oval for violation of a charter provision which prevented interference by individual councilors. with departmental operations. This one involved a statement that a particular employee should be dismissed. Since the charter prohibited this activity, the city attorney's office advised that an election should be permit- ted on this issue with the electorate sort of functioning as a jury to make the determination. The election resulted in a recall, and though a couple of avenues of litigation were commenced and later dropped, they were ineffective in giving us case law confirning the power of the council to decide whether reasons stated for recall_ or a petition are sufficient is a matter to be judged by the council. neither ''- did they resolve the question whether conviction of a crime that amounts to _ nonfeasance or malfeasance is a prerequisite to recall. Thus, there presently exists a good deal of uncertainty as to the extent of powers conferred upon the citizenzy by a broadly drafted recall provision. Wt hope this answers your question satisfactorily. Sincerely, Stanley G.

Slater, Executive Directo / V Laurie Fiori Hacking, Legislative Represe�" �" VVVV RE: Legislature Imposes Tighter Levy Limits The new tax law, signed by Governor Perpich on May 28, imposes a very stringent three percent levy limit on all cities beginning for payable 1988. Unless changed next year, the new law will also tighten levy limits on cities in 1989 and subsequent years as well as permanently subject small cities (with populations under 51000) to levy limits. Along with the freezing of Local Government Aid (LGA) at 1987 levels, these levy limits will make city budgeting extremely difficult. The impetus for tighter limits came from legislators' fears that, unless unilaterally restrained, local property tax levels would increase dramatically next year, a result of changes in the school aid formula, the loss of federal assistance (particularly revenue sharing) and the limits placed on state aid through the LGA and homestead credit programs. This memo is intended to provide detailed information about the new levy limit law and the appeals process that is available to cities. League staff would also like to request that, as your city's prepares next year's budget, information about problems caused by the levy limits be forwarded to the League so that we can effectively argue against levy limits when the Legislature considers changes in the law next year. This information will also be valuable as the League meets with Department of Revenue officials to discuss specifics of the appeals process and to assure that the Department plans to adhere to the full intent of the law in administering the appeals process. How the 1988 Levy Limit Will Work in payable 1988, all cities (including small cities) will be . subject to a tightened three percent levy limit. The payable 1988 levy limit will be determined as follows: 1) the levy limit base is equal to: the city's payable 1987 I 83 university avenue east, st. paul, minnesota 55101 (612)227-5600 levy (excluding amounts levied for debt service and unfunded • accrued pension liabilities) plus 1987 LGA, taconite aid, and wetlands /native prairie reimbursements; 2),,the levy limit base determined in step 1 is increased by ;the - ,percentage growth in population or in number of households, whichever.is greater, for the most recent 12—month period (if no population. growth or a population decline is experienced, the levy; -limit base determined in step 1 remains the same); 3J multiply the amount resulting from steps 1 & 2 by 1038; y�}) the amount determined in step 3 i reduced by the _amount. of W,A,,:taconite aid, and wetlands /native prairie reimbursements aertified_to be received in 1988; 5 -) :;step 9 yields the 1988 levy limit except that amounts lAq�v- ed..fos. debt service, unfunded accrued pension liabilities, ncgme,paintenance and social service programs are exempt from tie levy,, limit. Appear Process For payable 1988 only, a city will be allowed to appeal to the Commissioner of Revenue for an adjustment in its levy limit base if the city "can provide evidence satisfactory to the • commissioner that its levy for taxes payable _in 1987 had bee:, reduced because it had made expenditures,f;rt3ra reserve funds, or for any other reason, or that it is necessary to levy additional amounts for taxes payable in 1988 which were not levied in 1987." -Although this language is very broad and could be interpreted liberally, it is likely that the Revenue Department will attempt to construe it narrowly. For example, at this point it is not clear whether the Revenue Department will allow an adjustment in a city's levy limit base for moneys lost in. general revenue sharing or other federal or state funding. 1,989 Levy Limit For payable 1989 and beyond, the levy limit law generally reverts to the levy limit language that was in effect for payable 1987, with two exceptions: the inflation (implicit price deflator), factor will be capped at 3_percent, instead of 5 percent as under 'prior : law, and small cities with populations under 5,'000 would be- permanently brought under levy limits. The levy limit base used in determining the payable 1989 levy limit will be equal to the base determined for payable 1988. (This section of the new law contains a drafting error which would exempt statutory'cities from levy limits; this error is likely to be corrected next year.) 3f you have any questions about the new levy limit law or any other aspects of the tax bill, please contact Laurie Fiori Hacking or Sarah Hackett of the League staff.
