cess in Hutchinson. He stated that they had received donations and
equipment from individuals and organizations, but there was a need for

posed the three percent franchise fee received by the City be dedi-
cated to public access instead of going into the City's general fund.
City Administrator Plotz explained the philosophy behind the franchise
fee. The City provides right -of -way to the households, and in return
the cable company compensates the City for it. Mr. Plotz suggested
negotiating with North American Cable Systems to raise the fee to five
percent and designate the additional two percent to public access.

seconded by Alderman Mlinar and unanimously carried.

• JOINT MEETING OF CITY COUNCIL AND
POLICE STATION BUILDING COMMITTEE
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986
Mayor Ackland called the special joint meeting to order at 8:30 P.M. in the fire
station conference room. The following were present: Mayor Paul L. Ackland,
Alderman Mike Carls, Alderman John Mlinar, Alderman Marlin Torgerson, and
Alderman Pat Mikulecky; Police Chief Dean O'Borsky, Officer Chuck Jones, Sgt.
John Gregor, Phyllis Hegrenes, Dick Burgart, Chad Piehl, and Pat Durfee. Also
present: City Administrator Gary D. Plotz.
FINANCING ALTERNATIVES
City Administrator Plotz presented a report on financing alternatives for the
proposed police station.
1. It is estimated that $539,000 will be available October 1986
in the federal revenue sharing account.
2. A balance of $100,000 is left in the fire station construction
fund. However, use of this money would require a Council reso-
lution and special legislation or the alternative of voter ap-
proval.
3. The general fund balance has increased in recent years. In 1984
the balance was $800,000, but 1985 is not yet complete. However,
there were issues to take into consideration.
4. Mr. Plotz stated the State Statute allowed for an inter -fund loan
between the utilities and the City for a portion of the total cost
of the project. This activity would involve a one -time increase in
annual contribution to the City. This option would be subject to
approval by the Utilities Commission.
5. The additional funding needed could be on a referendum.
POLICE STATION SITE(S)
Mayor Ackland addressed the issue of a proposed site for the police station. He
stated the Council had reconsidered its previous action to locate the police
station on Highway 7 East and Prospect Street. Therefore, five possible sites
close to the downtown area were reviewed on a city map and discussed according
to advantages and disadvantages.
1. Lot 7 & B. Block 50 North of City Hall
Advantage: - Close to City Hall
• - Keep facility downtown
- Possible use of present facility
- Close to old fire station for storage purposes

feelings re. location of police station
3. Lot 10 and E 1/2 Lot 9, Block 11 East of Elementary School
Advantage: - Close to downtown
- Parking available
Disadvantage: - Cost of acquisition
- Lot size and shape
4. Lots 4 & 5, Block 25 East of Fire Station
Advantage: - Close to downtown
- City -owned parking lot •
- Adjacent property owned by City employee
- Possible sharing of facility
- Use of fire station bond fund monies
Disadvantage: - Cost of acquisition
- Possible parking problem
- Closing of alley
5. Franklin Street City Parking Lot and Property North of Dentist Office
Advantage: - Close to City Hall and garages
- Close to downtown
Disadvantage: - Cost of acquisition
Alderman Torgerson reported that Barry Anderson would be meeting with the son of
the property owner at Lot 7, Block 50 regarding the possibility of moving the
existing house to city -owned property at another location. The approximate cost
to move the house would be $35,000, with an additional $9,500 for digging a
basement, trenching and water hookup.
Officer Jones questioned the free access from the present police garage to the
alley. He stated there was a need for access from more than one direction.
The City -owned property west of the bridge on Hwy. 7 West and School Road was •
discussed. Mayor Ackland commented that the City Engineer had determined the
cost for constructing a service road, etc., would be about the same cost as to
move the house from Lot 7, Block 50.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 12, 1986
• Mr. Chad Piehl mentioned that there was property available on Hassan, with a
potential for future expansion.
SIZE OF BUILDING
Mr. Chad Piehl commented that the type of materials chosen for construction de-
termined the cost of the building. He suggested the building committee meet
with the architect to eliminate unnecessary areas from the plan. It was the
consensus of the committee that a police facility could be constructed for
$750,000, without including the architect's fee.
The various areas of the building were discussed. The basement area would be
used for a storm shelter, emergency operating area, and other uses, including
an exercise room. Alderman Mikulecky inquired about using the existing jail
cells, and he was told that the security area tied together as one unit.
Mr. Dick Burgart remarked that the building committee had reached the end of
its ability to do anything further until a site and architect were selected.
ARCHITECT
The committee felt it had selected the best architect with a workable knowledge
of police stations when it recommended Thorbeck & Lambert. This firm could do
• both architect and engineering work. Also, the recommended architect stressed
the importance of materials versus cost of building and costs for continued
maintenance. Mayor Ackland stated the firm had reduced some of its services in
order to cut the architect fee one percent.
Mr. Chad Piehl stated he had been contacted by a St. Cloud construction engineer
to give a presentation to the committee.
It was the consensus of the Council that sites No. 1 and 4 were first and second
choice for a police station, subject to acquisition of the necessary property.
Also, the Council would concur with the committee's recommendation of Thorbeck &
Lambert as architectural firm, contingent upon the total fee of the project be-
ing 7 -112 %. The City would waive the building fees.
TOP 20 OBJECTIVES FOR 1986
The City Council discussed the selection of the top 20 objectives for 1986 and
submitted their forms to the City Administrator for ranking.

(a) PRESENTATION OR REZONING PROPOSAL BY JOHN KORNGIEBEL
Mr. John Korngiebel was present to explain his proposal to rezone
property located on the east side of School Road North from C -4
(Commercial) to R -3 (Multiple Family Residence District). He
presented drawings of a proposed 24 -unit apartment complex. The
proposed apartment complex has been designed to meet the
requirements of R -3 zoning.
Mr. Torgerson noted that the property adjoins property already
zoned R -3 (to the north) so the rezoning will be an extension of
existing R -3 zoning. Mr. Korngiebel explained that they have
considered rezoning more of the tract, but would prefer to go with
just the north 188' at this time.
It was the consensus of the Planning Commission that they would
have no objection to the proposed rezoning. After discussion, Mr.
Torgerson made a motion to set a public hearing on the proposed
rezoning for the next regular meeting on Tuesday, February 18,
1986. Seconded by Dr. Lyke, the motion carried unanimously.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF HARVEY DAHLMAN SKETCH PLAN AS SUBMITTED TO MCLEOD
COUNTY (WITHIN TWO MILE RADIUS)
City Administrator Plotz explained that the sketch plan had been
reviewed by the Township and the City had received their statement
of approval.
Mr. Harvey Dahlman was present to explain that he wants to divide
off an acre and a half of his property so that his son can build a
home on the property.
Chairman Ebent asked about access to and from the property. Mr.
Dahlman explained that the driveway would be 400 -500' from the
intersection, as required by the Highway Department.
After discussion, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to state that the
Planning Commission has no objection to the Sketch Plan as
proposed. Seconded by Mr. Hwang, the motion carried unanimously.
(C) CONSIDERATION OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT SUBMITTED TO MCLEOD COUNTY
BY ASSEMBLY OF GOD CHURCH (WITHIN TWO MILE RADIUS)
City Administrator Plotz explained that the Assembly of God Church
had applied to the County for a conditional use permit to allow
the operation of a church in the "I -1" Industry District.
Director of Engineering Priebe explained that the proposed site
was not in present Comprehensive Plan.
After discussion, Mr. Romo made a motion to state that the

Mr. Torgerson, the motion carried unanimously.
(D) DISCUSSION OF ORDERLY ANNEXATION AGREEMENT
City Administrator Plotz explained that he and the Mayor had met
with representatives from the four surrounding townships and a
representative of the State Municipal Board to discuss updating
the expired Joint Orderly Annexation Agreement. He further
explained that the agreement had expired in 1983, and without such
an agreement, annexation has been a more difficult and lengthy
process. He stated that they will meet again, and wants the
Planning Commission to be aware that they are working toward a
new and updated agreement which will be presented to the Planning
Commission upon completion.
(E) DISCUSSION OF PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENT FOR
CONDOMINIUMS IN R -3 ZONE
City Administrator Plotz explained that the building permit for
a proposed condominium project is being held up as there is some
question on whether or not a P.U.D. is required. Director Priebe
explained that some of the building requirements differ, depending
upon whether or not the P.U.D. is required.
City Attorney Schaefer explained that it is his understanding
that a P.U.D. is required in R -1 or R -2 Districts when
cluster housing of more than 5 units is planned, and in R-3 if
the development is proposed to be constructed over a long period
of time. If the developer builds an apartment building and •
intends to sell each unit individually, but expects to rent the
units for a time, the building should be built so that it meets
the requirements for both.
Director Priebe stated that he felt that this should be clarified
in the ordinance so that the City is consistent in its
0
•
requirements.
After discussion, it was decided that Attorney Schaefer and
Director Priebe check into revising the ordinance to make the
section on Planned Units Developments more specific.
Administrator Plotz will obtain data on other cities' P.U.D.
requirements. Attorney Schaefer recommended that the developer
apply for a conditional use permit for a planned unit development.

January, 1986, medical staff meetings. He informed the board that the
physicians of the Medical Staff had met with Dr. Heeter and as a result
of the meeting will be cancelling their search for an orthopedic surgeon.
This will nullify the request by Ms. Maiers which asked for the hospital
to assist in recruitment expenses.
Old Business
A. Satellite Office in Dassel. Graves informed the board that two new
physicians had been recruited to join the Hutchinson Medical Center.
They are Dr. John Zenk, an internist, and Dr. Scott Risdahl, a family
practitioner. They will begin their employment here this summer.
Also, Graves informed the board that Dr. Montgomery will be providing
ENT coverage now, rather than Dr. Papparella. Graves described the
modular mobile unit that could be used as a satellite office in
Dassel. The unit would cost approximately $35,000, would contain
approximately 924 square feet and would require 8 -10 weeks set -up time.
The two issues that remain to be settled are a physician to staff
the office and how to fund it. Graves met with the Medical Center
physicians and indicated that no decision had come out of their
meeting. Bretzke again indicated the Medical Center's willingness'
to provide back -up and share call if a physician could be recruited
for the Dassel office. Graves indicated that nothing would be done
to purchase the modular unit until a physician had been recruited.

III MUTES
HUTCHINSON CHARTER COMMISSION
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1986
• The meeting of the Hutchinson Charter Commission was called to order by
Chairman Chuck Carlson at 7:35 p.m. Members present: Walter Clay, Tom
Dolder, Phil Graves, Jeff Haag, Harold Juul, Dale McLain, Jean Peterson, Kay
Peterson, Dick Popp (9:00 p.m.), Delores Saar, June Wick and Chairman
Carlson. Members absent: None. Also present: City Attorney James
Schaefer.
,Chairman Carlson introduced speaker, Attorney Stan Peskar, Legal Counsel
for the League of Minnesota Cities. Attorney Peskar explained the various
forms of government possible in Minnesota, noting advantages and
disadvantages of each form. He stated that Hutchinson is officially listed
as having the Commission form of government, but that there is evidence that
it does not operate as such. (See attached summary of Attorney Peskar's
presentation.)
After his presentation, Attorney Peskar answered questions from the Charter
Commission. Mr. Clay stated that a concern of the City Council is that the
City is officially listed as a Commission type government, but does not
operate as that form. Attorney Peskar responded that the Commission may
want to merely change the language of the Charter to conform to the way the
City is operating, as well as make other minor changes of items that
are outdated. He stated that the present charter does reflect modern
drafting principles, with little detail.
Discussion of the law regarding bidding for purchases followed. Attorney
Peskar recommended that it makes sense to change those things in the charter
superceded by State law to reflect State Statute. (Example: Purchases
required by State law to be bid, shall be bid.) The charter could also
specify kinds of items to be bid. (Example: Insurance.)
Mr. Haag asked what type of government is the most common for cities with
a population of 10,000. Attorney Peskar responded that in the metro area
having a City Manager is most common. Out of the metro area, a City
Administrator is used more often.
Attorney Schaefer asked about legalities or liabilities to council members
having a form of government, but not adhereing to it. Attorney Peskar
responded that there is the danger of a member taking their power too
seriously and misusing it. There is also an opportunity for a citizen who
claims to be damaged by a person failing to supervise - could involve
defense costs.
Attorney Peskar stated that if the Commission is leaning towards the Weak -
Mayor Council with a City Administrator, they would have to make a decision
on his /her power to hire, fire, discipline and direct, purchasing, and whether
or not that person would be the budget officer. Mr. Juul asked if the
Charter could delegate what power the manager would have over Burns Manor,
the Utilities Commission and the Hospital. Attorney Peskar responded that
it can be constructed in any way the Commission thinks is the best. With
the Home Rule Charter form, the Commission can leave any of these entities
separate. There can be separate boards with separate administrators or
1
separate boards with a single manager. Mr. Clay stated that he thought it
would be difficult for a single city administrator to be in charge of all of
these - that they should be run separately.
Mr. Haag asked about the pitfalls of a Weak -Mayor system, implications in
regard to contracts, and problems with handling a poor manager. Attorney
Peskar responded that the administrator or manager is the easiest person to
dismiss from a legal standpoint, as long as there is a good reason for the
firing. He stated that the trend is toward contracts with managers. He
noted that contracts shouldn't be too restrictive. Often a contract will
state that the manager serves for an unlimited period.
Discussion of the terms manager and administrator followed. Attorney Peskar
stated that there may be no difference between the two in Home -Rule Charter
cities. In Statutory cities, the manager position has executive power, by
law.
Attorney Schaefer asked about how charter changes should be brought to the
public. Attorney Peskar responded that if the changes are not radical, the
Commission may want to go with amendment by ordinance. Changes could be
recommended to the Council and published. If no petition for referendum is
filed within 60 days, it becomes the charter provision.
Discussion of administrator duties followed. Attorney Peskar also reviewed
the Initiative, Referendum and Recall procedures. In closing, Attorney
Peskar told the Commission that they may submit any future drafts of the
charter to the league of Minnesota Cities for review. •
Chairman Carlson asked the Commission if they wanted to elect a Vice -
Chairman, in the event that he would not be able to attend a meeting. It
was the consenus of the Commission to not elect a Vice - Chairman at this
time. Chairman Carlson asked if the Commission wanted to establish a
standing committee of rules. It was the consensus of the Commission that
they will not establish standing committees but operate as an entire group
at this time. Discussion followed about setting meeting dates. It was
pointed out that Council members had expressed an interest in attending the
meetings. It was the consensus of the Commission that the Council be
observers and not participants in the charter examination process.
Discussion of the process of making changes followed.
Ms. Kay Peterson suggested having a City Manager (one with executive
powers) to explain his duties and responsibilities. Discussion followed.
It was the consensus of the Commission that it would be good to hear from a
City Manager.
Comments about the kinds of changes to make included: Change charter to
reflect the type of government we have now. Identify the duties of the
Administrator by Ordinance. Have a City Manager form of government where
the Manager has executive powers. Clarify what administrator can do and
can't do.
In discussion it was pointed out some goals and objectives of the group
2

should be defined. It was also determined that before any changes could be
made, the Commission would have to be informed about how the City operates
now and how it is working. It was the consensus of the Commission that the
City Administrator, City Council and Directors of the various City
departments be invited to come before the group to explain their
responsibilities and how they feel the existing system works.
It was the consensus of the Commission to have the next meeting on Thursdayy,
February 20, 1986 at the Fire Station, with aforementioned guests present to
explain their roles and strengths and weaknesses of current structure.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:45 p.m.

SUMMARY
PRESENTATION ON FORMS OF CITY GOVERNMENT - ATTORNEY STAN PESKAR
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1986
The City Charter Commission is, in effect, functioning as a legislative
body, drawing a law that pertains to its City. It is a continuing body.
The intention is that the Charter Commission remain in effect constantly and
meet annually to determine what, if any, changes are needed based on what
has happened during the past year. There is nothing preventing the
Commission from being called in more often for a special purpose.
FORMS OF GOVERNMENT
Strong -Mayor - The mayor is the chief administrative officer, who makes
appointments of various department heads, does hiring and firing, and carries
out policies created by the legislative body.
Advantages - Responsive to electorate.
Disadvantages - For city government, particularly small cities, there
is a small pool of people who are willing to take time to serve.
Duluth, St. Cloud and St. Paul are cities which use the Strong -Mayor
form of government.
Weak -Mayor Council System - This is the most common form in Minnesota.
. The mayor has primarily a ceremonial function. The mayor presides over
council meetings - does not have many executive powers. The council acts as
the administrative body as well as policy making body. This form is
successful when there is a charismatic mayor, or some other member of the
council, who makes things happen. There is a tendency for this form of
government to develop toward a Manager system where someone is hired to
exercise the administrative powers or a Commission form where the council
divides into committees or into informal charge of supervising activities
of city. In a Weak -Mayor system, the administrator is not really
delegatable, legally. Council retains responsibility for doing hiring,
firing, budgeting, making purchases, etc. The council counts on the admini-
strator to do so on a defacto basis.
Disadvantage - This form of government tends to be unstable. The
council cannot legally delegate power unless its laws or the charter allows
it. It is uncharacteristic for council to delegate power.
Manager System - This form is a natural extension of the administrator
under a Weak -Mayor form. The council is policy maker. Executive function
is delegated to a manager. In cities with a statutory form of government,
the manager can hire, fire, budget, make purchases, give intradepartmental
direction, free from interference in administrative matters by the council.
There are no independent boards - the manager is the executive for all
departments. In Home -Rule Charter cities, the manager or administrator can
do either. A manager must be the following: 1) A thinker - needs time for
reflection - not so many day to day duties. He should put ideas before the
• council. 2) Expert at personnel - A growing concern among city governments.
3) Expert at finance. 4) A public persuader - not in the sense of a
politician, but one who can convince small groups of people of things. 5)
Conciliator - 6) Perceptive - must know where the problems are. 7) Willing
to make hard decisions.
Disadvantages - A city mist pick the right person. The council is
1
always dominant. 6
Commission System - The two in Minnesota are in Virginia and
Hutchinson, however, Hutchinson does not operate in the traditional
Commission form. The council divides into committees or has individual
council members serve as heads of operating departments. Each has
responsibility for one or more city departments. They have the power to
hire, fire, set personnel standards, make purchases, enter into contracts.
Disadvantages - Hard to get uniform policies with so much diffusion of
power among several different boards. There is also a fair amount of
turnover. City staff exercises more power than they would in any other
form.
Advantages - This form keeps council members involved in depth with at
least one department in the city.
Parlimentary - There are no Parlimentary systems in the State of
Minnesota, but it is a possible form. The council is elected and then
selects the mayor from within the council. The mayor has the executive
powers.
PRINCIPLES
1. A charter should be simple in language and in structure.
2. Lines of authority should be clear.
3. Elected officials should be few. Five to seven is recommended. •
4. Officials should be elected "at- large" unless there are different,
distinct interests to be represented or special racial districts
to be represented.

RE: Roll No. 214 - Overlay Project
Acct. No. 109 - Lot 38, Blk. 1, Oak Park 2nd Add.
Jerome & Gladys Homan, 1116 Randall Road
The above- referenced property owner has called relative to the assessment
notice they received. This property is located on a curve and has a total
of 214.59 feet of frontage for a proposed assessment of $751,07.
When the street was constructed in 1969, the proposed costs on Assessment
Roll No. 34 were as follows:
Curb & Gutter - 214.59'@ $3.25 = $ 697.42
Surfacing - 214.59'@ $8.75 = $1,877.66
Subsequent to the hearing, the City Council elected to consider the lot on a
corner lot basis. This amounted to a $421.41 credit on the surfacing, which
was approved, based on 59.59 feet a $8.75. This gave a net surfacing
assessment of $1,356.25.
Based on our new policy and previous action, this property could again have
a credit, based on 59.59 feet in the amount of $208.57 for a net charge of
$542.50.
Attached is a print of the area for your information.

SUBJECT: Liquor Store Fund
------- ----------------- - -- - --
Land located at Hwy. 7 East and Prospect Street is currently held by the
. liquor fund. The liquor fund paid $78,577.56 for this property. A note
of $73,000 is outstanding between the water /sewer and liquor fund, bear-
ing an interest rate of 7 %.
Last year a motion was made to begin a repayment schedule from the general
fund to water /sewer for the note. Since it appears the property will not
be used as a police building site, this motion may not want to be applied
by the City Council.
A memo from RCM and Marlow Priebe, City Engineer, indicated the water plant
may need all or part of the property. If the Council deems it appropriate
and assuming commitments of the agreement with former mayor Jim DeMeyer are
met, this property could be placed under the control of our water /sewer
fund.
If this land were transferred for any price paid below $78,577.56, a loss
on the books of the liquor fund would occur. Any price paid over $78,577.56
would create a one -time profit for the liquor fund.

Gary D. Plotz & the Hutchinson
City Council
RE: DeMeyer vs. City of Hutchinson
Dear Gary:
At the Director's Meeting held on Wednesday, February
19, 1986 I was asked to comment upon the effect the Stipulated
Agreement entered into on April 23, 1983 in the
above - captioned case would have on the use of the municipally
owned property in Solar Addition as a site for future
municipal wells or water facilities.
That portion of the Stipulated Agreement that deals
with the use of this property is found in Paragraph IV. I am
enclosing a copy of that paragraph for your inspection. In
that agreement the city agreed to do one of the following:
a. Utilize the property for municipal wells in which case the
inter -fund loan from the water and sewer fund to the
liquor fund would be declared paid in full.
b. Utilize that property as a site for a municipal police
station in which case monies authorized for the
construction of such facility would be utilized to repay
the principal and accrued interest on said loan.
C. Determine that said property is not needed for any
municipal purpose in which case the property would be sold
to the highest bidder and the funds utilized to repay the
interfund loan.
The city fully complied with the provisions of that
agreement by conducting the proper studies and determining
that the property at that time was not needed for a municipal
purpose and placing the property for sale to the highest
. bidder. Since the property has not been sold and the needs of
the city may have changed since the determination to sell the
property was originally made, I see no problem with reserving
(p - e ,
Gary D. Plotz and the

the property for future use as a municipal well site and
declaring the interfund loan paid in full. Such an action
seems to be not only within the letter of the agreement but
also in keeping with its spirit. I would suggest that any
resolution designed to accomplish the purposes of Paragraph IV
(A) of the Stipulated Agreement be drafted in a manner which
includes a provision providing that if a portion of this
property is ever sold or utilized for a purpose other than
municipal wells or water service the water and sewer fund
would be compensated on a pro -rata basis.
Sincerely yours,

RE: Robert McGee vs. City of Hutchinson
Dear Gary:
On February 6, 1986 I indicated to the Hutchinson City
Council that I had had - a telephone conversation with James
Junker concerning the above - captioned matter and that
Mr. Junker would be having his attorney contact me to outline
Mr. Junker's position concerning the lawsuit in greater
detail. As of this date, I have not received a response from
Mr. Junker's attorney. I have therefore written Mr. LaBore
and am enclosing a copy of that letter for council files.
Based upon the case as I have outlined, I would suggest that
the City contribute nothing towards the settlement of the case
since it is my belief that any settlement should come from
Junker Sanitation since they were the beneficiary of the fees
collected. If Mr. Junker is unwilling to contribute to any
settlement, I propose the following:
1) Prepare an answer on behalf of the City of Hutchinson that
names Junker Sanitation as third party defendants.
2) Prepare a motion seeking dismissal of Mr. McGee's claims
relating to past assessments based upon Mr. McGee's
failure to timely appeal the assessments.
3) Issuing subpoenas to Mr. Junker and his appropriate
employees to insure their availability to testify on the
March 26, 1986 trial date.
4) Discuss this matter with yourself and Ken Merrill to
determine if your testimony on that date will be
• necessary.

RE: Robert McGee vs. City of Hutchinson
Dear Mr. LaBore:
FILE COPY
Robert McGee has initiated an action against the city
of Hutchinson to recover refuse collection fees he alleges
were improperly billed to him. Although I believe that you
are probably familiar with Mr. McGee's claims I am enclosing a
copy of a letter dated January 30, 1986 which I wrote to
Mr. James Junket of Junker Sanitary Service, Inc. I believe
this letter fairly clearly outlines Mr. McGee's claims and an
offer of proposed settlement.
Mr. Junker has contacted me by telephone and indicated
his unwillingness to participate in any settlements
negotiations. He stated that he would contact you and ask you
to get in touch with me concerning his participation in the
defense of his action. Quite frankly, I do not believe that
this action is worth defending. Even if the city prevails,
the expenses incurred in the litigation process would greatly
exceed the amount of the proposed settlement. I would
therefore request that you talk to Mr. Junker in an attempt to
reach a mutually satisfactory negotiated settlement of this
matter. If Mr. Junker continues to refuse to participate in
any settlement, please let me know at your earliest
convenience. I will then file an answer in the action listing
Junker Sanitation as a third party defendant based upon the
fact that the money collected from Mr. McGee has been turned
over to Junker Sanitation; and if Mr. McGee is entitled to any
refund, the refund should come from Junker Sanitation funds.

RE: Benjamin /Nemitz settlement
Dear Mayor Ackland:
On this date I had a telephone conversation with Ron
McGraw, legal representative for Arthur Benjamin, Jr. and Sr.
Mr. McGraw indicated that there were several minor changes
which he desired to make on the agreement as last proposed.
These changes are as follows:
1) Use of the terms "lessee" and "lessor" would be
eliminated. In their place would be substituted "city of
Hutchinson" and "Benjamins" as applicable. This change
would not alter the substance of the agreement nor would
it affect the responsibility or duties of the various
parties. It would have the affect of making the document
easier to understand to the casual reader.
2) The phrase "liquidated damages" would be eliminated. In
its place would be substituted language providing for a
$1,200 compensatory payment to the city by the Benjamins
in the event of early termination of the agreement.
Again, this change does not affect the Benjamins'
liability for payment of the $1,200 but phrases the
liability in a manner more acceptable to the Benjamins.
Mr. McGraw indicated that with these changes he
expected to have the document signed by the Benjamins some
time during the afternoon of February 20, 1986 and would have
the signed document available for review by the Council at the
Council meeting of February 25, 1986.

TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: Bruce Ericson /Parks & Recreation Board
DATE: February 6, 1986
SUBJECT: LAWCON
Attached you will find a resolution pertaining to local
and regional recreation grant programs, and several commissions
that have recently been established. The Parks & Recreation
Board recommends passage of this resolution.
As a background,the Presidents Commission on American
Outdoors (PCAO) was established on January 28, 1985 for the
purpose of studying the quantity and quality of recreation
opportunities in the nation, and to determine how the nation
will deal with recreation issues through the year 2000. The
commission on Minnesota Resources (COMR) was established by
• Lt. Governor Marlene Johnson November 20, 1985. -It will
provide information to PCAO by answering: 1) In 2000,what
will Minnesotans want to do outdoors? and 2) How can we be
sure they have the appropriate places to do it?
The purpose of the resolution is two -fold: to demonstrate
wide -based support for local and regional recreation grant
programs; and to promote the concept of the two commissions,
empasizing the role the recreation community must play by
testifying at the commission hearings.
This resolution will then be forwarded to our state and
federal legislators and the COMR.

RE: Platting of Condominium Sites
Dear Gary:
I have been asked to comment upon the necessity of
providing Preliminary Plats and Final Plats for Condominium
sites.
Our Subdivision Ordinance requires preliminary plats
and final plats for all subdivisions of land located within
the city limits of the city of Hutchinson. By definition a
subdivision is a tract of land which is to be or has been
divided into three or more lots or plots for the purpose of
immediate or future transfer of ownership for the purpose of
sale or of building development. A condominium by definition
does not divide the underlying land into lots or plots for
individual ownership but rather provides for joint or multiple
common ownership of the ground with individual ownership of
the building unit. This is in contrast to a townhouse
development in which the underlying land is owned by the
individual with certain other areas or open space owned by the
townhouse association. It is my belief that since the
underlying land of a condominium project is not to be
subdivided no preliminary or final plat is required by our
subdivision ordinance. The condominium developer would still
be required to provide the city with all information necessary
to obtain the required excavation permits, building permits
and certificates of occupancy.
My interpretation does not imply that the equivalent
of a plat will not have to be prepared and filed by a
• condominium developer. Condominiums are governed by Minnesota
V �t 4
Gary D. Plotz
February 20, 1986
Page Two
Statutes 515 entitled "Condominium Law" and Minnesota Statutes
515A entitled "Uniform Condominium Act ". Minnesota Statutes
515.13 provides that a copy of the condominium's floor plans
are to be filed with the appropriate recording officer.
Minnesota Statutes 515A.2 -110 provide the specifications that
each floor plan shall show. Among these specifics are the
boundaries and dimensions of the land included in the
condominium, the dimensions and location of all existing
structural improvements and roadways, the intended location
and dimensions of any contemplated common elements, the
location and dimensions of any additional real estate, the
location and dimensions of all recorded easements within the
condominium, the distance between noncontiguous parcels of
real estate, the location and dimensions of limited common
elements, vertical boundaries, horizontal unit boundaries and
various other information. In discussing this matter with the
County Recorder it appears as if Green Castle Development has
not at this time filed with the County Recorder such a floor
plan. In my discussions with the County Recorder it is my
impression that this floor plan is the "plat" that is being
required by the county. A standard "plat" would obviously not
be applicable since there is no way of "platting" the second
story of a condominium structure. The filing of the floor
plan as required by Minnesota Statutes serves the same purpose
as a traditional "plat" and can be applied to multi -story
structures.
Each county has different filing requirements for
plats and floor plans. The McLeod County Recorder has
indicated that Green Castle has not as of this date inquired
into McLeod County's requirements.
It is my belief that since the filing of the floor
plan is a state requirement under the Uniform Condominium Act
and not a requirement of this municipality, it is the
responsibility of the condominium developer to make himself
familiar with the requirements of that act and to meet
whatever filing requirements it or the county may mandate.
Sincerely yours,
CITY OF HUTCHINSON

Culligan 3,366.50
Lindsey 3,950.00
Krasen's 4,160.00
All softners will handle a maximum flow rate in excess

flow rate at the facility. The . softner must be able to do
this without a significant drop in pressure.
I recommend that the Culligan Softner be purchased for
the following reasons;
- Culligan is the only softner which includes
the aqua sensor rather than a meter.
-The warranty on the Wendt Softner is one
year on everything, which Culligan has
three years on the controls, five years
on the Brine Tank and 12 years on the

aware of the project. City Administrator Plotz stated that the HRA

their recommendation before the Planning Commission took action.
Discussion followed. Mr. Korngiebel explained that this would be
subsidized housing for moderate income levels. Rent would be based
on the tennant's income. It was the consensus of the Planning
Commission that as their recommendation would only concern the

6 HUTCHINSON POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM
TO Mayor and City Council
- Chief Dean M. O'Borsky
SUBJECT 911 Service
DATE February 19, 1986
The police department currently has the responsibility for answering all
911 emergency calls in the area served by the Hutchinson Telephone Company. At
present should we wish to trace any call we use the "Hook, Flash" system,
which causes an alarm at the Telephone Co. Of course after office hours this
requires that we call a phone company employee at home to respond to give us
the information we need. This process takes up to one hour on occasion. This
time lapse can be critical if we have a bona fide life threatening emergency
occurring. Our failure to rapidly respond may also place us in liability for
• failure to act.
I propose that we install the necessary equipment in the Police Department
so that we may instantly trace incoming phone calls. Originally I had requested
$1500.00 which the Council budgeted. It turns out that the equipment is much
more expensive. Therefore the phone company has offered an estimate of the
lease costs for the equipment we will need.
Mr. Walt Clay of the Hutchinson Phone Company will be willing to answer
any questions the Council might have.

RE: Public Nuisance
Dear Mr. Klockmann:
FOR YOUR 1NF0RM4TID'(
On December 17, 1985 you entered into a plea agreement
with the McLeod County Court in which you entered a plea of
guilty to the offense of Maintaining a Public Nuisance. This
plea was taken under advisement for sixty days during which
time you were to remedy the situation in a manner which would
be acceptable to building official, Homer Pittman. More than
sixty days have now passed. I am by this letter requesting
Sharon Zieman, Assistant Clerk of McLeod County Court to set
this matter on the County Court docket in the city of
Hutchinson some time after March 10, 1986. If you have
complied with our agreement by the hearing date, the charge
will be dismissed. If full compliance has not been achieved,
I will request the Judge to enter the guilty plea and impose
sentence. I would suggest that you contact Homer Pittman at
your earliest convenience in order to determine what exactly
needs to be done to bring you into full compliance.
Sincerely yours,
CITY OF HUTCHINSON

SUBJECT: Volunteer Impact in Solid Waste Management
I recently attended a Minnesota Planning Association
conference in Owatonna in order to participate in the
solid waste management topic being discussed there. I
would like to report on some of the highlights of that
conference.
•
The three speakers there were representing various
aspects of solid waste management. There was a M.P.C.A.
representative, a Winona County Recycling Cordinator and
a Sanitary Landfill owner /garbage collector. Each speaker
presented their specific side of solid waste management.
M.P.C.A. representative Lawerence Landberr stated
that volunteers ran out of enthusiasum in the 1970's in
regards to recycling projects. Use of volunteers in the
80's and beyond must be carefully considered by waste
management boards. He felt public education was a very
key role in manageing waste disposal
Winona County Recycling Coordinator, Barb Thoman
spoke on public /private involvement with respect to
recycling programs. The Winona County area had three
types of recycling techniques.
1.) curbside pickup
2.) drop off centers
3.) recycling boxes
in some communities
at apartment complexes
Participation in the recycling programs is about 30%
in Winona, which is considered high. They recycled mostly
aluminum and paper. The citizens furnished their own
containers. She said approximately $35,000 per year was
spent in Winona county for pickup of recyclable material,
the pick up was contracted out.
Tom Tellijohn of Tellijohn Sanitary Landfill said mar-
kets for recyclable material is low. That usually 15% of
the present garbage quantity will be reduced through re-
cycling and that each landfill grows by 5% each year.
Gary Plotz /City Council `
February 14, 1986
Page two
In summary, the Hutchinson Waste Management Board must
address these following problems:
1.) Getting City and County Government support is
a must.
2.) Using volunteers wisely, while realizing some
form of payment must be considered for the
handling of recyclable material.
3.) That assuming recycling programs are a source
of revenue is probably the last desirable
reason for starting a recycling program.
4.) New rules and regulations occur yearly and
each county and city must evaluate it's own
as far as filling a landfill or recycling.
5.) Household hazardous material is a whole new •
area of consideration with respect to recycling.
The Hutchinson Waste Management Board will be meeting
February 19, 1986 at 7:00 p.m. at the Hutchinson Public
Library conference room. We will be having a guest speaker,
Char Iten of Delano. She is well known for her endeavors
in private waste management and has done some remarkable
things with respect to solid waste management.

RE: Proposed Apartment
Hutchinson, Minnesota
Dear Mayor Ackland & Members of the Council:
South Place Associates is planning an apartment project for Hutchinson.
A survey of interest is being conducted thru the newspaper and by personal
interviews.
The project is proposed as 24 units of 1 and 2 bedroom apartments with
moderate rents for general occupancy.
We feel that there is a definite need for this type of housing in
Hutchinson. The project will of course meet all applicable zoning and build-
ing codes.
Farmers Home Administration, who will be financing this project, are
interested in City imput at this time, and require a letter from the City
stating they are aware of the proposal.
We would therefore appreciate a letter from you indicating your aware-
ness and would welcome any comments.

STATUS OF DAKOTA RAIL, LITTLE CROW DIVISION
ISSUE NO, 3 -86
On February 10, 1986 the Central Prairie Association (shippers) met to have a status report
from Jerry Ross. Mr. Ross reported that railroad service began December 2, 1986. Eighteen
carloads have been transported in the last two and one -half months, including 10 carloads
of fuel oil for 3M. After spending approximately $175,000, Jerry reports the tracks are
probably in the best shape in 10 years.
The Rail Authority is working with Jerry Ross to apply for a $500,000 federal grant to fur-
ther upgrade the track. The breakdown on these grants is as follows:
$365,000 Federal Dollars
• 90,130 Dakota Rail Dollars or In -Kind Work
44,870 Shippers' Dollars
$500,000
The shippers shortly will be required to post a letter of credit in the amount of $44,870.
This is anticipated to be repaid at $50 per car from Dakota Rail to the shippers. During
Monday's meeting the primary shippers (3M, Pure Culture Products and Farmers Elevator) were
identified as initially being responsible for the letter of credit.
REQUEST FOR INCREASED FUNDING FOR LOCAL CABLE TV PROGRAMMING
On Monday I contacted Hubertus Sarrazin, North American Cable Systems, and report the fol-
lowing.
1. North American agrees not to raise rates until July 1, 1986.
2. North American will be approaching the City Council shortly to discuss a
rate increase because of the current low return in investment. A raise
from 3% to 5% franchise fee could also possibly be negotiated. The new
federal law (1985) is that the City can use all or a portion to local pro-
gramming.
3. The former agreement with Crow River CATV was that a rate increase request
will not be before July 1, 1986. This date could be mutually agreed to be
changed.
4. The City's power to regulate rates has been eliminated in federal legislation
• effective January 1, 1987.
ADMINISTRATIVE UPDATE
FEBRUARY 11, 1986
i
UPDATE ON ONE -WAY ALLEY REQUEST EAST OF MAIN FROM THIRD TO FOURTH AVENUE S.E.
Rev. Thor Skeie called and stated that Faith Lutheran Church is in favor of the alleyway
being southbound only between Third and Fourth Avenue Southeast.
1. The buses all exit on the right side (southbound helps)
2. Initially this alley was southbound with no objections from the other
two owners in the block.
3. Their parking lot was designed for a southbound flow of the alley.
TY'S METAL FINISHING APPLICATION
The application for Ty's Economic Development Grant is, in part, being drafted by me this
week. We have allocatted for administration $2,500 for our portion of the grant /loan
activity, as per guidelines of Region 6E.
INSURANCE CLAIM - SHIRTS AVAILABLE
We have submitted an insurance claim for Fabricare Cleaners in regard to the damaged shirt
Jerry Jones has brought the shirts down to City Hall, as requested by the Council. They
are in my office if you would like to see them.
RADIOACTIVE WASTE REPOSITORY SITE
The U.S. Department of Energy has announced its schedule of meetings on the high level
radioactive waste repository sites.
The meeting for the Minnesota River Valley Site (Nicollet, Sibley, Renville and McLeod
Counties) is scheduled for Winthrop City Hall, Thursday, February 13 at 7:00 P.M. You
may want to attend to learn more about the DOE siting program, question federal officials
and express your concerns about the location of such a facility in our area.
