HUTCHINSON PLANNING COPLffSSION
TUESDAY, APRIL 17, 1984
1. CALL TO ORDER
The regular meeting of the Hutchinson Planning Conmission was called
to order by Chairman Larry Homo at 7:30 P.M., with the following
embers present: Harlin Torgerson, Elsa Young, Don Erickson, Roland
Ebent, Shu -Mei "Wang, Thomas Lyke and Chair--an Bono. Members absent:
None. Also present: Director of Engineering Marlow V. Priebe, Fire
Marshal George Field and City Attorney James H. Schaefer.
2. MINUTES
The minutes of the regular meeting dated Tuesday, April 3, 1984,
were approved as presented upon a motion by Mr. Erickson. Seconded
by Mrs. Young, the motion carried unanimously.
3. PUBLIC HEARINGS
(a) CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE SUBMITTED BY S &L
REHAB
Chairman Romo opened the public hearing at 7:33 P.M. with the
reading of publication #3227 as published in the Hutchinson
Leader on Thursday, April 5, 1984.
The request is for a sign variance submitted by S & L Rehab,
which will allow two 14' banners that will project 48" from
the north and south corners along the west side of the
building located at 101 Park Place, 20 1st Ave. S.E.
Staff recommended that the request be rejected. Director
Priebe explained that it was the feeling of staff that the
signs should conform to the ordinance. - If the ordinance is
such that we can't conform, then it's the ordinance that
should be changed. Discussion followed pertaining to
signs that do not conform, including the State Theatre,
which was there before the new ordinance was adopted and
was later refurbished and the time and temperature clocks
at Citizen's Bank and First State Federal. It is
generally thought that those signs provide a service as
well as advertisement.
Mr. Dick McClure was present to explain the request. He
stated that the idea is to keep the signs for the various
tennants of the building on one attractive banner that could be
seen by oncoming traffic, rather than several different types
of signs on the face of the building. He stated that it was
their understanding that the sign now in place was covered
with the variance that was granted for the decorative awnings.
It was later determined that a separate variance would be
required for that. Mr. Torgerson noted that the square
Planning Com-nission Minutes
April 17, 1984
Page 2
footage for this sign would also require a variance.
Discussion followed. The commission stated that the problem
was not that the sign was unattractive but of the precedent
that would be set by approving a variance for a sign project-
ing k8" from the property line. Putting the signs on the
face of the building, considering a variance for "banners" as
opposed to neon signs and the possibility of angling the signs
so they would be less nonconforming, were ideas that were
brought up.
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to continue the hearing until the
regular meeting on May 15, 1984. Seconded by Dr. Lyke, the
motion carried unanimously.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE SUBMITTED BY DALE
LEE ROSS
Chairman Homo opened the public hearing with the reading of
publication 03228 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, April 5, 1984. The request is for a variance
to allow a 13' frontyard setback for the purpose of
constructing a new garage.
Mr. Ross was present to answer any questions about the
request. Chairman Homo noted that a variance was granted for
the neighboring property. Mr. Ross's request would allow him
to build his garage in line with the neighbor's. There was no
one present who voiced objection to the request.
After discussion, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to close the
public hearing. Seconded by Mr. Erickson, the motion carried
unanimously and the hearing was closed at 7:54 P.M.
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to recommend to City Council
approval of the variance as requested. Seconded by Dr. Lyke,
the motion carried unanimously.
(c) CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FOR A PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLAT AS
SUBMITTED BY RICHARD LARSON
Chairman Homo noted that as his employer has an interest in
this project, he would make no comment nor would he vote on
this request.
Chairman Homo opened the public hearing with the reading of
publication d 3230 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
April 5, 1984. The request for the preliminary and final
platting of a parcel to be known as Library Square East.
Staff recommended approval of the request.
ry
Planning Commission Minutes
April 17, 1984
Page 3
Mr. Richard Larson was present to explain the request. The
reason the property is being platted is to easily allow for
four or five different owners. It will be a one story
structure consisting of 8 lots. An existing building will be
plotted as a single lot as well as the parking area and area
surrounding the main building. The zoning is appropriate for
a common walls. There will be an association that anyone who
owns a lot will belong to. Those association papers are being
drawn up at this time and a copy will be submitted to the City
of Hutchinson.
After discussion, Mr. Erickson made a motion to close the
hearing. Seconded by Mr. Torgerson, the motion carried
unanimously and the hearing was closed at 8:06 P.M.
Mr. Erickson made a motion to recommend to City Council
approval of the plat as submitted. Seconded by Mrs. Young,
the motion carried unanimously.
(d) CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
SUBMITTED BY HAVTI
Chairman Romo opened the public hearing with the reading of
publication #3229 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, April 5, 1984. The request is for a conditional use
permit to allow the moving in of a portable training unit on
the property located at 200 Century Avenue.
Mr. Warren Macemon, Director of the HAVTI was present to
explain the request. A similar request had been granted in
February of 1982, with the stipulation that it be reviewed
each year. Mr. Macemon commented that the portable training
unit now in.use has been an important asset to the school. It
is being used for the STEP Program now.
After discussion, Mr. Erickson made a motion to close the
hearing. Seconded by Mrs. Young, the motion carried
unanimously and the hearing was closed at 8:10 P.M.
Mrs. Young made a motion to recommend to City Council approval
of the conditional use permit contingent upon renewal of
former permit, the portable training units must be placed at
least 10' apart and the permits must be reviewed each year
beginning June of 1985. Seconded by Mr. Erickson, the motion
carried unanimously.

al use permit as per staff recd =endations (a certificate of

5. New Business
(a) JOHN KORNGIEBEL PRESENTATION
Mr. Korngiebel was present to make Planning Commission aware
of proposed apartment building on site just off Bradford
Street.
It is proposed to be located on a tract of unplatted property
owned by Mr. Schmidtbauer. The area is zoned R -3 which is
appropriate for such a building. The apartments will be
1 and 2 bedroom general occupancy units available to those ina
moderate income bracket.
Director of Engineering Priebe asked what requirements are
needed for city services. Mr. Korngiebel replied that a
gravel base and curb would need to be extended to include
the proposed development. Director Priebe recommended that
platting of the lots on both sides of the proposed gravel and
curb be considered for the purposes of assessing for those
improvements in the future.
After discussion, it was the consensus of the Planning
Commission that there was no objection to the proposal at this
time.
6. Adjournment
There being no further business, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to

dissertation.
Mr. Jim Merritt, a representative of the physician recruitment firm of Jackson
& Coker, presented information to the board about recruitment services his
firm provides. He outlined the steps that will be taken to insure a "good"
placement of an orthopedic surgeon in Hutchinson including commrnity and
candidate profiles, interviews, contract signing and follow -up. He quoted
the firm's fee structure which included a $16,000 base and an additional
$1,500 for "out -of- pocket" expenses for the recruitment manager's visit here
to get a verbal picture of the physician desired.
The board asked about the percentage of physician retention once placed.
Merritt said that there is an 80% retention of orthopedic surgeons placed,
and explained that the key to retention is getting the family into the
city and canfortable with their surroundings at the outset. Examples of
reasons why physicians have left placement sites include competition,
quality of life, and involvanent in large, multi- specialty groups where
reimbursement is not what the physician expected. He related that two
key reasons to contract with an orthopedic surgeon are the revenue factor
that the physician will add to the hospital lose and an increase in the
market in medical trade areas (right "mix to keep what business you have).
Merritt fielded questions from the board and thanked them for allowing him
to make his presentation.
The meeting was called to order at 6:43 PM by President Backe.
Minutes of Past Meetings. The minutes of the February 21, 1984, meeting of
the board of directors were presented for review. Following discussion:
Notion was made by Ewald, seconded by Goebel, to approve
as presented the meeting minutes of the February 21, 1984,
meeting of the hospital board of directors. All were in
favor. Notion carried.
Medical Staff Meetin Yinutes. Dr. O'Brien presented the redical staff
meting minutes for March. He mentioned that notices have been posted in
the hospital nursery as per the "Baby Doe" ruling for handicapped newborns.
He noted that the first insurance company private review will be coming
up in April now that the insurance companies are asserting their right
to challenge and deny claims on a retroactive basis. Also discussed was
the marketing effort of some chiropractors who say they'll take anything
the insurance companies will pay in return for their services. Conversation
ensued regarding the hospital's view of chiropractic and a possible marketing
plan to stress the advantages of the hospital's physician - supervised
physical therapy programs.
Old Business
A. Orthopedic Recruitment Fee. Balke reported on his meeting with Drs. Bretzke,
Kleinkauf, and Griebie and Bill Rosenaa to discuss a commitment from the
medical center for recruitment of an orthopedic surgeon. A verbal As an example
agreel-aant was made to go 50/50 on all expenses. iOf the $10 ,000 guaranteed
first - year's salary, $50,000 is overhead; the hospital's ccRYTdt3Tent would
be $25,000, half of the remaining amount. Capital outlay for equipment
was estimated at $100,000; possible income is estimated at $250,000 to
$500,000 for an average year's work for an orthopedic surgeon.
Skeie asked if it was ethical for a municipal hospital to enter into
a contract with a private medical center. The majority of the board
discussed this but did not feel that it was an ethical question.

B. Long Term Task Force Dinner. Graves told the board of his recent conver-
sation with Mavis Geier, administrator of Burns Manor, regarding the
proposed appreciation dinner - progress report for the m°anbers of the
Long Term Care Task Force. The Burns Manor board was willing to pay
50% of the cost of the dinner for just members and the hospital and
nursing home administrators. Following discussion:
Nbtion was made by Doelger, seconded by Ewald, to hold a progress
report dinner meting for the members of the bong Term Care
Task Force. Motion was defeated.
C. West Central Community Services Center Contract. Graves recapped a meeting
with Helen Reardon and Vince McYanel of West Central in which they concluded
they couldn't come up with a contract until they decided what they
wanted to contract for. They talked about joint ventures. A meeting
was scheduled for March 21, but Mehmel had a conflict, so another
meeting has been scheduled for later in April.
.14A-imel said in a letter to Graves that he was waiting for Skeie's meeting
with Nblzod County, West Central, and the hospital. Skeie told the
board that in his meting with Melurel, he had asked Ylehmel to draft a
letter to outline what West Central desired to provide as services to
McLeod County and the hospital. Those services were expressed at the
meeting as beincd&rrdly counseling, chemical dep&ency counseling, and
an adolescent girls' hare.

Carls, to commission Graves to negotiate

were in favor. Motion carried.

(B.) Men asked by the board if people here are being denied services because
West Central is no longer affiliated with the hospital, Graves said no,
that services are available right here. If the county says they will
do business with West Central, he said, the hospital will affiliate with
them. If West Central wants to invite the county and the hospital to
sit down to talk over wfiat might be done to satisfy mental health needs
for next year's county contract, he felt they should do the inviting
and not continue to ask the hospital to influence the county. Following
discussion:
Motion was made by Skeie, seconded by Goebel, to receive
this item as information and table discussion. All were
in favor. Motion carried.
New Business
A. Virgil Goebel Replace ent. Graves noted that this meeting marked the
expiration of Virgil Goebel's term of service on the hospital board.
He said that Goebel brought a great deal of expertise to the group
and that he would be missed. He then asked the board to consider the
needs of the board for representation of the city of Hutchinson.
Business, education, and clergy are currently represented on the
board. Following discussion, the following names were suggested as
possible candidates:
Ruth Westlund Ron McGraw
Ed McCormick Chester Gatzman
Spencer Beytein Don Glas
Julius Rainwater Dr. Bill O'Brien
Graves suggested that the board might want to change the status of the
chief of staff from ex- officio to voting member. This would give the
physicians more of a voice on the board and promote collaboration between
the physicians and the hospital. Following discussion:
Board concensus was to table this until the next meeting
when legal opinion can be given on having a physician as
a voting member of the hospital board of directors.
B. New Tenant for Dr. Thompson's Suite. Graves presented a request from

I.A.C.P. Annual Conference
DATE Mav 8. 198
I request permission to attend the International Association
of Chiefs of Police Annual Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah,
October 20 -25, 1984.
I have attended two national conferences at the request and
expense of the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association and found
them to be of great value personally and professionally. The
Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association encourages Minnesota Chiefs
to attend, as the voting for National officers is crucial and the
election of officers from our area is important to us.
The I.A.C.P. has the largest display of the latest technology
available as well as a super line -up of speakers and informative
sessions.
The cost involved will include room and board, registration
fee and travel. The amount budgeted for schools and conferences
is in good shape and this expense will not cause any change in that.

The calculator which I have been using over the past 6'
years has apparently absorbed its maximum amount of usage.
Upon trying on two different occasions to get the unit
repaired, Persian Office Supply could not solve all the
problems. They have said the parts in need of repair are
too expensive.
Persians have offered a replacement and also will deduct
past repair cost on the old machine. Because this was
not a budgeted (nor anticipated) expedition, a request
for emergency appropriation is requested in the amount of
approximately $200.00.

Resolution #7752 set the interest rate payment for the 1984
project. The rolls have been adopted but interest rates
could not be set until the bonds had been sold.
The 9.4% interest represents a 1% higher rate than when the
bonds were sold. This follows past policy and is used to
cover in part administration and delinquency factors and
still represents a good rate to the property owner.

SUBJECT: Interest on Assessment for Lewis Avenue _ _ _ _ _ _
The Council requested an interest amount be computed for the
Lewis Avenue assessment (assessment Roll 196). The rate of
interest will be 7% per the year. The gravel project was
installed in 1970 (Project 70 -1 -Part 1). The interest from
the time of original project adoption until annexation would
result in $66.93 for interest charges.
This amount would be added to the principal of $450.00 or a
total assessment of $516.93 for each of the properties on
Roll No. 196. The amount would then be payable over 10 years
at a 7% interest rate.

Water from sumps and rainfall currently
drains, and in some cases, collects along the
rear lot lines of Block 5, Stoney Point Addition.
A dr.=.in tile could be laid from Roberts Road
to an existing storm sewer located at the corner
of lots 8, 9, 10, and 11. The two homeowners
we discussed this with agreed with the concept
but were concerned with the cost.
Please investigate this project before
the lawns and trees are well established in
this area.
Thank you,
Steve and Susan Flanagan.

Hutchinson, MN 55350
Dear City Council:
The Tourism Committee of the Hutchinson Area Chamber of Commerce
believes that travelers and visitors to our city should be well
informed about the many local activities, recreational areas and
businesses that cater to their needs, plus have maps and informa-
tion on our area available to them. For over two years we have
worked on a method to do this and have come to the conclusion that
the quickest and easiest way is to erect lighted information Kiosk -
type sign boards at key locations in and around Hutchinson.
The committee has researched the project and received plans of the
Kiosk which will fit our areas needs. We have shared these with
the City Park and Recreation Department and have received an es-
timate of the materials costs to have one built for Fireman's Park.
We feel this would be a fine addition to our parks and be a great
help to the travelers. The City Park and Recreation staff has
offered to provide the labor to construct and place them in the
park.
We would like to see one constructed and placed in Fireman''s Park
on Main Street early this summer. The cost for materials, cement
base, electrical wiring and fixtures would be $1,500.00 maximum.
Bruce Erickson has the plans to show you the dimensions, etc.
We request that the City Council consider this a favorable addition
to the park system and fund on Kiosk for this current summer for
placement in Fireman's -Park. Should this project work as well as
we plan, we would-recommend another one next year for West River
Park.
Thank you for your consideration.
ncerely,
�UALAs- C�

HUTCHINSON PLANNING COMMISSION
TUESDAY, MAY 15, 1984
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
1. CALL TO ORDER
The regular meeting of the Hutchinson Planning Commission was called
to order by Chairman Larry Romo at 7:30 P.M., with the following
members present: Marlin Torgerson, Elsa Young, Don Erickson, Roland
Ebent, Thomas Lyke, Shu -Mei Hwang and Chairman Romo. Members absent:
None. Also present: Director of Engineering Marlow V. Priebe, Fire
Marshal George Field and City Attorney James H. Schaefer.
2. MINUTES
The minutes of the regular meeting dated Tuesday, April 17, 1984,
were approved as presented on a motion by Mr. Erickson. Seconded by
Dr. Lyke, the motion carried unanimously.
3. PUBLIC HEARING
(a) CONTINUATION OF HEARING FOR SIGN VARIANCE REQUEST SUBMITTED BY
S & L REHAB
Chairman Romo reconvened the hearing at 7:32 P.M. with the
reading of publication #3227 as published in the Hutchinson
Leader on Thursday, April 5, 1984. The request is for a sign
variance to allow a 3' by 12' banner (already in place) on the
north corner of the building located at 101 Park Place, 20 1st
Ave. S.E. and a variance to allow another banner 4' by 16' on
the same building which will list the various tenants in the
building.
Mr. Dick McClure was present to explain the request. He noted
that the proposed sign will be a multicolor banner, similar to
the one that now stands in the atrium of 101 Park Place. The
idea is to have one sign with all tenants listed rather than 14
separate signs on the building. Since the last meeting, Mr.
McClure noted there were at least 20 signs on Main Street that
project over the 48" that he is requesting.
Discussion followed. Director Priebe explained that the intent
of the sign ordinance was to prevent new signs from going up
that would add to the problem of signs of all proportions on
Main Street. It was intended that as the various businesses
with signs that have been "grandfathered in" changed, new signs
that went up would have to conform. The result would be that in
the far distant future, most of the signs would conform -
appearance and safety would be enhanced.
It was the consensus of the Planning Commission the problem
is that the ordinance does not provide a plan for the new
condominium type /office type buildings where there are several
businesses housed in one building in the C -3 zone; and that the
sign ordinance should be reviewed at the next Planning
Commission meeting.
Y
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to continue this hearing until the
sign ordinance is updated, up to 6 months. Seconded by !Jr.
Erickson, the motion carried uranin,ously.
The Planning Commission asked Mr. McClure to talk to others in
this area that might be faced with a similar type of sign
situation; i.e., 45 Library Square, 45 Library Square Fast and
the Brinkman Studio Building.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF THE PRELIMINARY AND FINAL PLAT SUBMITTED BY
MILLER PROPERTIES
Chairman Romo opened the public hearing at 8:03 P.M. with the
reading of publication 03238 as published in the Hutchinson_
Leader on Thursday, May 3, 1984.
The request if for approval of a preliminary and final plat to
be named Miller To-,.-nhouse Third Addition. Director Priebe
explained that the units are already built and that the
proposed plat is in accordance with the revised PUD for that
area.
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to close the hearing. Seconded by
Mr. Erickson, the motion carried unanimously and the hearing
was closed at 8:04 P.M.
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to recommend to City Council
approval of the preliminary and final plat as submitted.
Seconded by tars. Young, the motion carried unanimously.
(c) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT SUBMITTED
BY HENRY AND ROSALIND EWALD
Chairman Romo opened the hearing at 8:05 P.M. with the reading
of publication 03239 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, May 3, 1984.
The request is for a conditional use permit to allow the
operation of a boarding /lodging home for the elderly on the
property located at 225 Shady Ridge Road (C4).
Mr. and Mrs. Ewald were present to explain the request. He
stated the State Board of Health had inspected the site and had
approved it for 12 residents (based on the number and size of
rooms available). Fire Marshal George Field had also inspected
the building and had indicated that the window openings would
have to be enlarged from 18" to 20" to meet the Fire Code. Mr.
Ewald stated they intended to comply with that request. There
are currently 9 parking spaces available. Mr. Ewald stated
that they expected that most of their residents would not have
a car. They would provide transportation for the residents.
They expect employee two people on the day shift, one on the
night shift.
Director Preibe noted that the Zoning Ordinance as is
does not specifically stipulate for this type of residence.
Therefore, Director Priebe recommended that if a conditional
use permit were granted, the number of parking spaces required
F-
L
2
should boeft open until the Planning Conission had time to
study it.
Building Official Pittman had further r ecommended in a memo to
the Planning Commission that the category, "Licensed Boarding
Homes" "Housing for the elderly with a maximum of six (6)" be
added to R -2 Conditional Uses.
After discussion, Mr. Erickson made a motion to close the
hearing. Seconded by Mr. Ebent, the motion carried unanimously
and the hearing was closed at 8:18 P.M.
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to recommend to City Council
approval of the Conditional Use Permit contingent upon the
State Licanse being submitted to the City, approval by the Fire
Marshal and --eeting City policy for parking requirements.
Seconded by Mr. Ebent, the motion carried unanimously.
(d) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR VARIANCES SUBMITTED BY DARWIN MAUS
Chairman Romo opened the hearing at 8:20 P.M. with the reading
of publication 113240 as published in the Hutchinson Leader on
Thursday, May 5, 1984.
The request is for a variance to allow a 3' sideyard setback
and a variance to allow a 1.5' rearyard setback on the property
located at 545 Hassan street for the purpose of constructing a
26' by 34' garage which will replace an existing garage.
Mr. Darwin Maus was present to explain the request. He stated
that he needed the large garage for storage for various items
including tools and other items associated with his SNAP-ON -
TOOL business. When he made the original request, he thought
that his present garage was 3' from the property line. After
the survey, he found out that it was 5' from the line, so a
5' sideyard setback would be adequate. He wants to use the
driveway that is there now and the present slab. His present
garage sits 1.5' from the alley, as do most of the others in
that area. He also noted that there is a storm sewer at the
back of his property and moving the garage over farther may
cause blockage there and flooding onto his yard. It was also
pointed out that a large ash tree would have to be removed if
the variance was not granted.
After discussion, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to close the
hearing. Seconded by Mr. Ebent, the motion carried unanimously
and the hearing was closed at 8:30 P.M.
Mr. Torgerson made a motion to recommend to City Council
approval of the variances as requested. Seconded by Mrs.
Young, discussion followed. Mr. Torgerson made a motion to
amend his motion to recommend to City Council approval of the
variance to allow a 5' sideyard setback and the variance to
allow a 1.5' rearyard setback. The amendment was seconded by
Mrs. Young. The motion carried unanimously.

4. OLD RUSINESS
None.
5. NEW BUSINESS
(a) CONSIDERATION OF ANNEXATION PETITION SUBMITTED BY PAUL AND
LAURA CLOUSE
Director Priebe explained the request. City services would be
provided. It would come into the City as 9 -2 (low to medium
density.) Director Priebe had discussed deferred assessments,
future improvements and the park and playground contribution
required when the property is subdivided.
City Attorney Schaefer explained the procedure to be followed
would be Annexation by Ordinance, as the City is no longer
under the Orderly Annexation agreements with the townships.
After discussion, Mr. Erickson made a motion to recommend to
City Council proceeding with the annexation as requested.
Seconded by Mr. Hwang, the motion carried unanimously.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF ANNEXATION PROPOSALS SUBMITTED BY DIRECTOR OF
ENGINEERING PREIBE
In a memo to the Planning Commission, Director Priebe had
explained that there are two tracts of land had not been
included in previous annexations and should be considered:
The East 33 feet of the North 3/4 of the NE 1/4
of Section 12, Township 116 North, Range 30
West. Lynn Township.
The West 33 feet of the NW 1/4 of Section 7,
Township 116 North, Range 29 North. Hassan
Valley Township
He also noted that the annexation of the right of way of County
Road 82 would permit the City to establish additional Municipal
State Aid Routes to benefit the City in the future. Those
tracts of land to be considered are described as follows:
The North 33 feet of the NW 1/4 of Section 12,
Township 116 North, Range 30 West, from School
Road to County State Aid Highway No. 7. Lynn
Township.
The South 33 feet of the SW 1/4 of Section 1,
Township 116 North, Range 30 West, except the
West 600 feet and except the East 900 feet.
Lynn Township.
After discussion, Mr. Torgerson made a motion to recommend to
City Council proceeding with the annexations as stipulated by
Director Priebe. Seconded by Mr. Erickson, the motion carried
unanimously.

' (c) REVIEW O *E COMPREHENSIVE PLAN •
Chairman Romo began by reading a letter from John B =_rnhagen
on behalf of the Co;munity Development Corporation stating that
they would like an inventory of what services are available,
and what area is available for Industrial development. They
are actively promoting industry in this area.
Director Priebe reviewed what was available and stated that he
would put together an inventory of what is available, ownership
and services for industrial development.
Director Priebe also asked the Planning Commission about
reviewing setback requireaents and density requirements in the
R -3 zone. He reco:,ends 2200 square feet per unit which would
allow 4 units per 10,000 square feet. He further reco:_�ends a
braduated setback depending upon the height of the building.
Mr. Erickson asked if Director Priebe could present some
drawings showing an example of the proposal.
Director Priebe also stated that Building Official Pittman,
Fire Marshal Field had discussed with him the possibility of
proposing a housing code for Hutchinson. The objective of such
a code would be safe rental for tenants.
It was the consensus of the Planning Commission that such a
proposal could be presented after adequate study by staff and
the commission.
6. ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, Mr. Erickson made a motion to
adjourn the meeting. Seconded by Mrs. Young, the motion carried
unanimously and the meeting was adjourned.

That part of the Southwest Quarter of Section 36, Township 117 North,
Range 30, West, McLeod County, Minnesota, and more particularly de-
scribed as follows: Beginning at a point on the West line of said South-
west Quarter of Section 36, said point lying North 491.40 feet from the

2. The City Council has considered the recommendation of the Planning Com-
mission and the effect of the proposed use on the health, safety, and welfare of
the occupants of the surrounding lands, existing and anticipated traffic condi-
tions, and the effect on values of properties in the surrounding area and the ef-
fect of the use on the Comprehensive Plan.
3. The Council has determined that the proposed use will not be detrimental
to the health, safety, or general welfare of the community nor will it cause ser-
ious traffic congestion nor hazards, nor will it seriously depreciate surrounding
property values, and the proposed use is in harmony with the general purpose and
intent of,the Zoning Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan.
CONCLUSION
The application for Conditional Use Permit for the purpose designated is
granted, based upon the findings set forth above, and contingent upon the State
License being submitted to the City, approval by the Fire Marshal, and that the

SUBJECT: Variance Request as Submitted by Darwin Maus
Pursuant to Section 6.05, B3, of Zoning Ordinance No. 464, the Hutchinson
Planning Commission is hereby submitting its findings of fact and recom-
mendation with respect to the aforementioned request for a variance.
HTSTORY
On April 29, 1984, an application was submitted by Darwin Maus, property
owner, for a variance to allow a 3' sideyard setback and a variance to
allow a 1.5' rearyard setback for the construction of a 26' by 34' garage
which will replace an existing garage on the property located at 545
Hassan St. A public hearing was held at the regular meeting of the Plan-
ning Commission on Tuesday, May 15, 1984. There was no one present who
voiced objection to the request. Mr. Maus explained that the variances
would allow him to use his present driveway, use the present slab and
keep as much of his bactcyard as possible.
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The required application was submitted and the appropriate fee
paid.
2. Notices were mailed to the surrounding property owners as well
as published in the Hutchinson Leader on Thursday, May 3, 1984.
3. Discussion revealed that a 5' sideyard setback would be acceptable.
The 1.5' rearyard setback would allow the garage to be in the same
place as the former garage and would conform to the other garages in
the area.
RECOMMENDATION
Itis the recommendation of the Planning Commission that the
aforementioned request for a variance to allow a 1.5' rear yard setback
and a variance to allow a 5' sideyard setback, be approved.
Respectfully submitted,
Larry Romo, Chairman

RESOLUTION GRANTING VARIANCE FROM SECTION 6.05, B.3 OF
ZONING ORDINANCE NO. 464 TO ALLOW SIDEYARD SETBACK AND
REARYARD SETBACK FOR CONSTRUCTION OF GARAGE
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUTCHINSON, MINNESOTA:
FINDINGS
1. Darwin Maus of Hutchinson has applied for a variance from Section 6.05,
B.3 of the Zoning Ordinance No. 464 for a variance to allow aAV64 foot sideyard
setback and a variance to allow a 1.5 foot rearyard setback for the construction
of a 26 foot by 34 foot garage which will replace an existing garage on the prop-
erty located at 545 Hassan Street, with the following legal description:
Lot Eleven (11), Block 59 Townsite of Hutchinson, South Half,
except the North 44 feet thereof
2. The Planning Commission has reviewed the application for a variance and
has recommended to the City Council that the application be granted.
3. The Council has considered the effect of the proposed variance upon the
health, safety, and welfare of the community, existing and anticipated traffic
conditions, light and air, danger of fire, risk to the public safety, and the
values of property in the surrounding area and the effect of the proposed variance
upon the Comprehensive Plan.
4. Because of conditions on the subject property and on the surrounding
property, it is possible to use the subject property in such a way that the pro-
posed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent
property, unreasonably increase the congestion in the public streets, increase
the danger of fire, endanger the public safety, unreasonably diminish or impair
health, safety, comfort, morals, or in any other aspect be contrary to the intent
of the ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan.
5. The special conditions applying to the structure or land in question are
peculiar to such property or immediately adjoining property and do not apply gen-
erally to other land or structures in the district in which such land is located.
6. The granting of the application is necessary for the preservation and
enjoyment of a substantial property right of the applicant. It will not merely
serve as a convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate demonstrable
hardship or difficulty.
CONCLUSION
The application for variance for the purpose designated is granted based
upon the findings set forth above.

RE: Proposed Annexation by Paul Clouse
I recommend the annexation of the tract, as shoirn on the attached map. The
present City Limits abuts the tract on the %orth and East.
The property has deferred assessments for water and sanitary sewer mains for
the entire tract, storm sewer for the North Half of the tract and curb and
gutter for a portion of the tract. Subsequent to platting, said deferred
assessments will be activated.
Future improvements will be curb and gutter and surfacing on School Road,
street surfacing on McDonald Drive, balance of curb and gutter on McDonald
Drive and storm sewer for the South Half of the tract. hone of the future
improvements have been approved for 1984 construction and have not been
programmed for 1985 construction. --
The property is being proposed for single family dwellings, which conforms to
our Comprehensive Plan and the R -2 Zoning that will be established on the land`
subsequent to annexation. The developer will be requited to make a Park and
Playground contribution to the City when the property is subdivided. Said
cost will be in accordance with our fee schedule at the time of subdividing.
All other City services, such as Police and Fire protection will be provided
for the property. City gas and electric service is in the area and is assumed
to be available for development of the property.

RE: Annexation
The following tracts of land should be considered for annexation, at this time:
1- The East 33 feet of the North 3/4 of the NE 1/4 of Section 12,
Township 116 North, Range 30 Pest. Lynn Township.
2. The Rest 33 feet of the NR 1/4 of Section 7, Township 116 North,
Range 29 North. Hassan Palley Township.
The above tracts were not included in previous annexations, according to the
State. Ile, therefore, have a strip of land within the Highway 15 right of way,
from South Grade Road to South City Limits, that has not been annexed. See
map attached.
The following tracts of land should, also, be considered for annexation, at this
time:
1. The North 33 feet of the Nl4 1/4 of Section 12, Township 116 North,
Range 30 West, from School Road to County State Aid Highway No. 7.
Lynn Township.
2. The South 33 feet of the SW 1/4 of Section 1, Township 116 North,
Range 30 Rest, except the Rest 600 feet and except the East 900 feet.
Lynn Township.
The above tracts are the right of way of County Road 82, not previously annexed
between School Road and County State Aid Highway No. 7. See attached map. This
annexation would permit us to establish additional Municipal State Aid Routes
that would benefit the City in the future.

We would limit this to local banks.
Chuck Brill, manager of the State Theater, is offering a quantity
discount on theater tickets. They would be purchased in blocks
of 100 for resale to employees. (Discount price is $2.25; regular
price is $3.25.) The tickets would be good for one year at any
Mid - continent theater. Any tickets unsold at the end of a year
would be bought back by the theater. The hospital has been par-
ticipating in this program for several months, with very good
employee response. City responsibility would involve the record
keeping for the ticket fund. It would be understood tickets are
for the use of employees and their immediate families only.
Jefferson bus tickets at discount
Since the city (Hutchmobile office) serves as the local Jefferson
bus depot, the Jefferson Line would permit sale of tickets for any
of its tours or scheduled service to city employees at 10% discount.
Any such sale would mean our normal 10% commission would be forfeited.
It would be understood tickets are for the use of employees and
their immediate families only.and they would have to be purchased
at the Hutchmobile office. There would be no additional record
keeping involved.
Any of these programs which the council might approve would be
publicised to all employees.

RE: Risk Management Consultant
Dear Mayor Stearns and City Council:
"An Equal Opportunity Employer"
The Hutchinson Community Hospital Board of Directors would like
to inform you of their support of Dwight Tange Company as a risk
management consultant for the City of Hutchinson. Following
discussion at their meeting last evening:
Motion was made by O'Brien, seconded by Carls,
to support Dwight Tange Company for risk insurance
management and agree to pay the hospital's portion
of his fee.
Lp
CIE OE 6Zj
Dwight's knowledge of the city's insurance policies and his expertise
in managing these policies were contributing factors in the board's
decision to support his company. The cost savings effected by his
management and his prompt response to any questions we have had prove
to us that Dwight deserves the support of the hospital board.
If you have any further questions concerning Dwight's past performance
or the board's decision to support him for risk management consultant,
please contact me.
Sincerely,
HUTCHINSSOONJCOMMUNITY HOSPITAL

(612) 442 -5281
From: Dwight A. Tange, President
D. A. Tange Company*
(* A Minnesota Corporation in the process of formation)
Subject: Proposal for Continued Risk Management Services
I propose to provide for all insurance policies (including
Property & Casualty, Workers' Compensation, and Employee
Benefits) the routine risk management services that are
listed below. The monthly fee for these Routine Services will
be $200 per month for the coming twelve (12) months. ($2,400
for the upcoming one (1) year of service)
Routine Services
1. Quarterly Loss Reports:
This would include obtaining and reviewing quarterly
loss reports; checking for trends and to be used as a
guide to a good loss control program.
2. Claims Handling:
This would involve routing claims to the appropriate
insurance agent or company as well as follow up on all
claims other than Employee Benefits. For Employee
Benefits claims, the City would be responsible for
claim reporting but the D. A. Tange Company* would get
involved if a problem or dispute develops.
3. Premium Allocation:
This would involve reviewing agents calculations and
verifying accuracy of premium allocation to the various
departments, as needed.
4. Invoice Verification:
This would involve checking premium invoices to be sure
they are as quoted and signing off on them before
payment is made by the City.
5. Updating Schedules and Insurable Values:
This would involve a check at least annually of the
accuracy of the automobile schedule, scheduled property
floaters, statement of values, etc.
• • 9 irrv,

Specific Task Objective
There is one problem that does not fall into any of the
catagories listed above which I would attempt to resolve for
the City. This is the refusal by Forum Insurance Company
(your previous Public Official Liability Insurance Carrier)
to reimburse the City for certain legal expenses incurred. I
will make phone calls and send letters to Forum Insurance
Company as well as the State of Minnesota Department of
Insurance in an effort to resolve this matter without
additional charge.
Additional Services
From time to time, the City may desire the performance of
additional duties that do not fall within the scope of the
routine services listed above. Some examples would be
preparing specifications, evaluating insurance bids and
additional visits for specific purposes (over and above the
four (4) visits included in the monthly fee). These and other
additional duties, if requested by the City, would incur an
additional charge based on time and expense.
This method of pricing my services is intended to give the
City full accountability and disclosure of the source of all
charges. Under no circumstances will the City incur charges
for additional services over and above the monthly fee for
Routine Services without prior aqreement between the City and
D. A. Tange Company *. If additional services are requested,
D. A. Tanqe Company* will, in the "prior agreement" process,
estimate the total number of hours that will be required and
guarantee a maximum additional fee for the requested
additional services before any work begins. Therefore, the
City's total cost for the coming year s services will be
$2,400 unless the City requests and authorizes additional
services. Even if additional services are requested, the City
will know in advance the maximum additional charges before
any work begins. This method allows the City to pay only for
services that are actually rendered.
D. A. Tange Company s* involvement will be advisory only and
all decisions will be made by the City. I trust you will
agree that this is a cost effective approach to Insurance and
Risk Management. I "ve- enjoyed my past association and look
forward to the possibility of continuing to serve the City of
Hutchinson. Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to
present this proposal.
Signed ) 9. Tange, President D to
D. A. Tange Company*

6. Review of Audits:
This would include verification of the accuracy of
premium audits on such policies as Workers Compensation
and General Liability as well as negotiation of any
disputed items with the involved insurance company. It
has been my experience on more than one occassion that
audits contain errors which, unchecked, could cost the
City thousands of dollars needlessly.
7. Review of Retention Rating Plan:
Your workers Compensation is currently written on a
retention plan which allows for a refund based on loss
experience. I would review this to be sure you receive
all the refund to which you are entitled.
8. Continual Monitoring of Policies:
This would include considering adjustments, based on
loss experience, insurance market changes, and changes
in the nature of the City's operations as well as
continuing to look for more cost effective ways to
handle exposure to loss, such as consolidation of
policies when possible and increasing deductibles.
9. Negotiation of Renewal Premiums:
This would involve requesting renewal premium
quotations well in advance of the renewal when the
insurance company is well aware that the City still has
time to go to bid. This exerts a bargaining clout that
facilitates the renewal premium negotiation process.
10. Information on Pending Legislation:
This would involve reviewing all new legislation that
effects the City and involves the insurance and risk
management area and report to the City with
recommendations regarding newly created exposure to
loss, erosion of statutory immunity, etc.
11. Unlimited Telephone Access:
This would allow the City Council or City Staff to call
with questionh as much as is needed with appropriate
action and follow up.
Most of the above items can be accomplished by mail or
telephone but on occasion a visit to the City or attendance
at a City Council Meeting will be necessary. The above quoted
monthly fee will include four (4) visits per year to the City
wherein up to a half day of time (Four (4) hours) will be
spent on premises or at a City Council meeting. These visits
would be by appointment; either at the request of the City or
by agreement of the City with my recommendation of the
necessity of a visit. On occasion, when I "m in the Hutchinson
area, I will drop by for a brief visit to check status of
pending matters without additional charge and these visits
would not count as one of the four (4) promised visits
mentioned above.

RE: Chamber position on a recreational facility
Dear Council Members:
The Hutbhinson Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors
at its May 9, 1984 meeting voted to favor the construction
of a city -owned recreational facility and ask that it be
designed to accommodate the recreational pursuits of all
age groups of the City of Hutchinson.
The Directors commend the Park and Recreation Department,
its Director Bruce Erickson and the City Council for its
foresight and desire to see such a facility provided to its
citizens.
We pledge our support toward a successful citizens reaction
to such a facility should this issue be brought to the
voters. A building of this nature is long over -do and will
benefit all present and future citizens in their healthful
pursuit of excercise and wellness:'

Chairman
Sanders called the meeting to order
at 7:40 p.m.
Correction to the minutes of March 12, 1984 --- under SAMMIE Governing Board Meeting,
Lilah Buhr's naae should also be added as attending. Motion made by Moench /Duchanan
that the -minutes be approved as corrected. Carried.
Financial report was given by Sue Nelson. Nelson /Malone moved the acceptance of the
Financial Report. Carried.
Quarterly budget report was presented by Mr. Sundbera. There has been an over estimate
on the part of the state regarding the amount of state aid Pioneerland will receive.
The estimated figure for calendar 1984 will be $167,000 ($12,000 short of budget).
The first quarter payment was $28,933 rather than the anticipated $42,217. It was
also noted that Meeker County will contribute only the minimum state requirement
which reduces their total commitment by $3,957. Fortunately we are receiving more
cash receipts than anticipated which partially offsets the shortfall of state aid.
Total budget spent to date has been 25.178, which is close to what it should be, 258.
Mr. Sundbert reported that the Glencoe librarian, Shirley Chapman, has resigned as
of May 1, 1984. A replacement, Norita Kath, has been hired. Jean Kvols has also
resigned from the staff -- however her job would have been eliminated due to the
e,
demise of the RINGS program.
Kathy Matson reported that National Library Week is the week of April 16. Each board
member was given a bookmark recognizing National Library Week.
Mr. Boese reported that we have received two TRS80 color computers from the Tandy
Corporation through the Pioneer Public TV station in Appleton. They are to be made
available for public use. When a printer is purchased for the OCLC terminal, it
is hoped that this would also accommodate the TRS80, which will be used for some
library functions as well.
The bills were presented for payment. Mr. Hebrink noted one correction - -Check #618
to Jean A. Kvols- -the amount should be $735.63 -- change due to her termination as an
employee. The totals have also been adjusted. Hebrink /Kubasch moved the bills be
approved. Carried.
Committee and Project Reports:
a. SAMMIE Governing Board Meeting is scheduled for May S. A decision will be made
at that meeting whether SAMMIE should be open or closed during the summer months.
Mr. Gulstad and Mrs. Buhr will be unable to attend. Mr. Sanders volunteered to be
an alternate to this meeting. The meeting is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. in Marshall.
Another alternate to this meeting was also encouraged.
Communications:
a. Confirmation was received that our share of LSCA funds will be arriving toward
the end of the month. The amount should be $29,553.
b. The state newsletter was distributed along with the clippings from area newspapers.
c. Fergus Falls will be having a bond issue for a new library and has been encouraged
by the success at Hutchinson.
d. Mr. Sundberg attended a systems director's meeting in Eau Claire. It was a com-
bination meeting with system directors from Wisconsin - -they number 40 -- Minnesota
has 12. Mr. Sundberg will be attending the Minnesota system director's meeting in
Virginia, Minnesota, in July.
e. Kathy Matson reported on the Legislative Day in March. She and Mr. Boese visited
with seven legislators and all indicated it would be very difficult this session to
pass legislation mandating library services. There are two joint staff meetings
scheduled for 1984, and the May meeting will be on "Volunteers."
Unfinished business:
a. Mr. Boese presented a policy in regard to telephone equipment and service costs.
(A copy of the policy is attached.) Barker /George moved that this policy be accepted.
Carried. Ulrich /George moved that the effective date be July, 1984. Mr. Sundberg
will contact those libraries where changes are to be affected.
b. Revision of non - resident policy pertaining to use of audio - visual material- -this
was brought to the attention of Mr. Boese after the matter was brought up by a
Benson City Council member. It was the concensus of the Board that the current policy
on use of audio - visual material be retained.
New Business:
a. Meeker County and 1984 budget -- Meeker County's share of the total budget will
be $3,957 less than projected. Discussion followed regarding ways to reduce services
to Meeker County because of this shortage. The concensus of the Board was that
visible reduction in services to that area has to be made or this will continue to
be an ongoing problem. This matter will be tabled until the May board meeting at
which time a decision will be made on reductions in services to Meeker County.
b. Revision of overall plan for bookmobile service was discussed. Mr. Sundberg
proposed serving all five counties with one vehicle. Consideration of this matter
was also tabled.
c. George /Barker moved that the May 14 board meeting be held in Willmar as it is
centrally located. Carried.

SUGGESTED TELEPHONE POLICY:
1. All owners of library buildings which house member libraries of Pioneerland
should be responsible for providing adequate basic telephone services for
those library buildings. Basic services include the equipment housed in
the building and the "access to dial tone" charges of the local telephone
company. The Pioneerland administration will call attention to the building
owners when the service or equipment seems inadequate.
2. Pioneerland should pay for the costs of all long- distance charges: both
to the other system libraries and to library users outside of the local
calling area.
3. The System should pay for all telephone services to the Montevideo and
Willmar libraries, including:
a. Purchase or rental of equipment used primarily for system wide activities.
(OCLC phone modems, Data terminal phone modems, etc.).
b. Long distance charges as to other libraries.
c. Provision of telephone equipment for those two libraries.
d. Provision of local access charges for those two libraries.
Points 3c and 3d are to compensate the o- -wners of those buildings for services
provided to the system as a whole, such as heating bookmobile garages, furnish-
ing quarters for the administration and materials processing, etc.
This policy should take effect no later than JE, +935.

RE: Allocation of Authority to Issue Tax Exempt Industrial Development Bonds
Introduction
The Tax Reform Bill of 1984, H.R. 4170, includes among its proposed restrictions on industrial
development bonds a state per capita limit on the amount of tax - exempt industrial development
and student loan bonds issued in any calendar year. In the absence of action by the state
legislature or interim action by the governor, the House bill allocates fifty percent of the overall
cap to the state and its agencies, and fifty percent to other issuers within the state on the basis of
their relative populations.
The Minnesota legislature has adopted an allocation bill, Laws of Minnesota 1984, Chapter 582,
which is intended to provide a final allocation mechanism for Minnesota's issuers. $43,750,000 in
1984 and $61,500,000 in 1985 would be allocated to the Department of Energy and Economic
Development, to be allocated to state agencies and other issuers within the state. Thirty million
dollars in 1984 and Ten million dollars in 1985 would be allocated to the Higher Education
Coordinating Board for student loans. $23,750,000 in 1984 and $24,500,000 in 1985 would be
allocated to the Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Board. The remaining issuance authority
less $1,250,000 in 1984 and less $500,000 in 1985 would be allocated to local issuers as follows:
eighty percent of the authority provided to local issuers would be allocated to issuers who presently
have issued an average of $1,000,000 per year of industrial development bonds in three of the last
four years. These "entitlement" issuers would receive an annual allocation based on a three -year
average of their industrial development bond issues. Other local issuers would compete for the
remaining twenty percent less $1,250,000 in 1984 and less $500,000 in 1985 of local issuer authority
on the basis of certain minimum criteria. Between September 1 and October 31 of each year, all
allocations not committed with a letter of intent to issue by the end of the year would be
reallocated among all issuers on the basis of the allocation criteria. During November, all
allocations not yet subject to a preliminary resolution for a specific project would be reallocated
on the basis of the allocation criteria, but with no minimum criteria requirement.
Summary of Provisions
1. Department of Energy and Economic Development
The Department of Energy and Economic Development (the "Department ") is
designated as the administrative body responsible for reviewing applications for and
making the allocations of issuance authority. The commissioner of the Department of
Energy and Economic Development is to adopt rules, including temporary rules, to provide
for allocation of the $43,750,000 or $16,500,000 of the federally - imposed state volume

RE: Allocation of Authority to Issue Tax Exempt Industrial Development Bonds
Introduction
The Tax Reform Bill of 1984, H.R. 4170, includes among its proposed restrictions on industrial

and student loan bonds issued in any calendar year. In the absence of action by the state

their relative populations.
The Minnesota legislature has adopted an allocation bill, Laws of Minnesota 1984, Chapter 582,
which is intended to provide a final allocation mechanism for Minnesota's issuers. $43,750,000 in
1984 and $61,500,000 in 1985 would be allocated to the Department of Energy and Economic

dollars in 1984 and Ten million dollars in 1985 would be allocated to the Higher Education

allocated to the Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Board. The remaining issuance authority
less $1,250,000 in 1984 and less $500,000 in 1985 would be allocated to local issuers as follows:
eighty percent of the authority provided to local issuers would be allocated to issuers who presently
have issued an average of $1,000,000 per year of industrial development bonds in three of the last
four years. These "entitlement" issuers would receive an annual allocation based on a three -year
average of their industrial development bond issues. Other local issuers would compete for the
remaining twenty percent less $1,250,000 in 1984 and less $500,000 in 1985 of local issuer authority
on the basis of certain minimum criteria. Between September 1 and October 31 of each year, all
allocations not committed with a letter of intent to issue by the end of the year would be
reallocated among all issuers on the basis of the allocation criteria. During November, all
allocations not yet subject to a preliminary resolution for a specific project would be reallocated
on the basis of the allocation criteria, but with no minimum criteria requirement.
Summary of Provisions
1. Department of Energy and Economic Development
The Department of Energy and Economic Development (the "Department ") is
designated as the administrative body responsible for reviewing applications for and
making the allocations of issuance authority. The commissioner of the Department of
Energy and Economic Development is to adopt rules, including temporary rules, to provide
for allocation of the $43,750,000 or $16,500,000 of the federally - imposed state volume
-1-
limit available to the state among the department and any other state or local issuing
authority whose obligations are subject to the volume limit imposed by a "federal
limitation act." The term "federal limitation act" is used to refer to any act which, like
the proposal in H.R. 4170, would impose an annual volume limit on the issuance of
obligations the interest on which is exempt from inclusion in gross income for purposes of
federal income taxation, and which allows or requires state legislatures to provide for the
allocation of issuance authority under that volume limit. The Department of Energy and
Economic Development is required to make available through August 31 of each year out
of its allocation $5,000,000 in 1984 and $6,000,000 in 1985 for farm loans authorized by
Section 116J.90.
The Department's allocation is cancelled after August 31 of each year except that it
may be retained through October 31 if it designates a specific project and submits a letter
of intent and 1% application deposit. Unused allocation is available for allocation among
pool applicants, with a priority given to the IRRRB for its projects.
2. Higher Education Coordinating Board
The Higher Education Coordinating Board (the "HECB ") is allocated $30,000,000 in
1984 and $10,000,000 in 1985. Any unused allocation on September 1, 1985 shall be
available for allocation among local issuers. If the HECB cannot issue tax - exempt
obligations, than its allocation is divided between the Department and local issuers.
3. Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Board.
The Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Board (the "IRRRB ") is allocated $25
million for use from January 1 to October 31 of each year, provided that such allocation is
cancelled on August 31 except to the extent the IRRRB has submitted a letter of intent to
issue and designated a specific project, and submitted a 1% application deposit which is
refunded within 30 days of issuance of obligations or cancellation of allocation by October
31st. Unused allocation amounts are available for allocation in accordance with pool
procedures, except that projects of the Department are given a preference with regard to
such amounts.
4. Entitlement Issuers
An entitlement issuer is any local issuer, defined to include any non -state issuer with
authority to issue obligations which could be subject to the federal limitation act,
including cities, whether home rule or statutory, towns, housing and redevelopment
authorities or bodies authorized to exercise their powers, port authorities or bodies
authorized to exercise the powers of a port authority, area or municipal redevelopment
agencies, counties, and any other municipal authority or agency other than the iron range
resources and rehabilitation board, which issued an average of $1,000,000 principal
amount of obligations which would be subject to the federal limitation acts volume limit.
Entitlement issuers are entitled to an annual allocation of authority under the volume
limit. The average is based on the amount of obligations issued in the highest three of the
years 1980 through 1983. The amount available for allocation among entitlement issuers
is 80% of the amount remaining after the share of the Department, HECB, and IRRRB,
less $1.25 million in 1984, and less $500,000 in 1985.
Entitlement issuers must apply for an initial allocation by May 27, the date which is
thirty days after adoption of the act. The issuers must submit a certification for the last
four calendar years of the principal amount of obligations issued which would have been
subject to the volume limit had H.R. 4170 been adopted prior to their issuance, together
with their average annual use based on the highest three of the four calendar years
preceding the application. The Department of Energy and Economic Development will use
these figures to determine each entitlement issue's proportionate amount of the eighty
-2-
0
' percent earmarked Q all entitlement issuers. The alloions must be published within
15 days after the deadline for the issuers' certifications. Each entitlement issuer's
allocation will be determined according to the following formula:
one entitlement issuer's
aggregate authority average use for highest 3
available to entitlement X of last 4 ears
issuers total o such average use
for all entitlement issuers
submitting certification
Within 15 days after the effective date of a federal limitation act, entitlement
issuers must submit a new certification as to previous use as defined by the federal
limitation act (which may differ from the provisions of H.R. 4170). Within 15 days
thereafter, the Department must publish the revised amount of issuance authority, which
is determined in accordance with the formula set forth above, except that allocation
authority for any entitlement issuer is reduced by the amount of obligations issued by such
entitlement issuer pursuant to the initial allocation. Any obligations issued in excess of
final allocation amounts, including amounts issued by an issuer that does not qualify as an
entitlement issuer after redefinition of terms in the federal limitation act, as adopted,
shall reduce the amount available for allocation to non - entitlement issuers in accordance
with pool procedures.
If two or more local issuers have boundaries which are co- terminus (for example, a city,
a port authority, and a housing and redevelopment authority which all have the same
boundaries), they are treated as a single issuer for purposes of determining their eligibility
for and the size of any entitlement allocation. The bill allows the city or the county to
allocate the authority among such coterminous issuers.
If an entitlement issuer wishes to retain its allocation from September 1 to October
31, it must submit two things to the Department of Energy and Economic Development.
The first requirement is a letter which states its intent to issue all or a portion of the
allocated authority either before the end of the year or within the time period permitted
by the federal limitation act. This provision is intended to take advantage of any
provisions of the federal limitation act which permit a carry -over of authority for a
project. The second requirement is a deposit of one percent of the amount of the issuer's
allocation with respect to which it has stated its intent to use. Any portion of the
entitlement issuer's allocation which is not covered by a letter of intent and deposit by
September 1 is reallocated among all issuers pursuant to the pool allocation procedures.
An entitlement issuer is entitled to the return of a pro rata portion of its deposit if it
returns all or a portion of its initially allocated authority to the Department on or before
October 31.
Entitlement issuers will be allowed to "share" their allocation by entering into an
agreement allowing any other local issuer or the IRRRB to issue obligations pursuant to
the entitlement issuer's entitlement authority. If such other local issuer or the IRRRB
issues obligations pursuant to this agreement, the entitlement issuer may include that
amount in its annual amount of obligations issued, in order to increase its average
previous use.
5. Local issuer allocations
From January 1 until August 31 of each year, local issuers which are not entitlement
issuers compete among themselves for a portion of the twenty percent of the volume limit
on local issuers remaining after allocation to the Department, HECB, and IRRRB. Then,
from September 1 through October 31, all local issuers, including entitlement issuers, and
-3-
the IRRRB and the Department of Energy and Economic Development compete for any
remaining amounts.
Applications for issuance authority are due by the 20th day of each month.
Applications must be submitted with evidence of enactment of a preliminary resolution
and a deposit of one percent of the requested allocation.
Applications will be ranked on the basis of whether the issuer and the project
proposed meet certain criteria. Each application receives a numerical rank based on the
following criteria, with one point for meeting each. The criteria are intended to provide
an objective threshold requirement; once this is met, the point is awarded without further
project comparison. The criteria are as follows:

October 31 period, allocations will not be made for applications with less than four points,
-5-
except that forty -nine percent of the pool is available for waste activities, without regard
to numerical rank. If two or more applications have the same numerical rank, and there is
insufficient authority available for both projects, the Department of Energy and Economic
Development will use a lottery to determine which issuer gets the allocation unless the
issuers agree on some other method of determining the allocation. After each allocation
date, the deposits for rejected applications will be returned. Up to Ten million dollars of
any amount returned by the IRRRB is available to the Department of Energy and
Economic Development first. Up to ten million dollars of any amount returned to the pool
by the department is available to the IRRRB first.
If a local issuer which is not an entitlement issuer wishes to retain an allocation received
prior to September 1 after that date, it must file a letter of intent with the department of
energy and economic development. If no letter of intent is submitted, the department of
energy and economic development will return the issuer's deposit and reallocate the
authority. If local issuers, including entitlement issuers, return their authority for
reallocation on or prior to October 31, the 1% deposit is returned.
6. Final Allocation Process
During November and December, any remaining amounts available for allocation will
be allocated among issuers on the basis of the stated criteria, but with no minimum point
requirement. Any allocation previously made is subject to reallocation unless the issuer
has enacted a preliminary resolution with respect to a specific project. Applications iaust
be submitted by October 20, include evidence of passage of a preliminary resolution fc/s a
specific project, reaffirm intent to issue, and include a one percent deposit. Applications
will be ranked and allocations awarded on the basis of the criteria and methods set f¢gth
in subdivisions 3 and 4 of Section 12, except that no minimum number of points is required
to qualify. Allocations will be awarded on November 5.
If any authority to issue becomes available for reallocation after November 5, it is to
be allocated among issuers who filed an application by October 20.
If, by December 20, any issuer determines that it will not issue obligations pursuant
to its allocation by the end of the year or within an applicable carry -over period, it lRay
notify the Department and receive a refund of one -third of its deposit. The bill provides
for a carry -over allocation on or before December 31 of any remaining authority to
prospective issuers which may carry the allocation over to subsequent years. Applications
for the carry -over allocation must be submitted by December 10. If there is insufficient
authority the allocation will be determined by lot.
7. Required Notices
a. Notice of Issue
The bill requires that issuers notify the Department of issuance, stating the date
of issue and the principal amount of the obligations. If this notice is not filed the
obligations are void unless waived by the commissioner of the Department. This
notice provides the Department of Energy and Economic Development with essential
monitoring data and triggers a refund requirement. Within 30 days after receipt of a
notice of issue, the Department of Energy and Economic Development is required to
refund a pro-rata portion of any deposit.
b. Notice of available authority.
In order to ensure that local issuers receive notice of available authority in time
to prepare applications, the bill provides that the Department of Energy and
Economic Development must publish the allocation remaining available for the next
month. While t• is the only publication requiremei1E, local issuers should be able to
contact the Department of Energy and Economic Development in the interim periods
to determine whether any allocations have been forfeited.
8. Legislative review
The allocation formula is based on a division between entitlement issuers and other
local issuers. On March 1, 1986, the Department of Energy and Economic Development is
required to report to the legislature on the operation and status of the allocation
mechanism.
9. Amendments to Chapter 474
Chapter 474 provides general authority for the issuance of industrial development
bonds. The bill provides for a number of restrictions on the issuance of such obligations if
a federal limitations act is passed. The following limitations take effect 90 days after the
federal limitation act is signed by the President.
The bill amends chapter 474 to require the governing body of the municipality or
redevelopment agency issuing obligations which are subject to a federal limitation act to
make a specific finding that the project to be financed would not be undertaken but for
the availability of financing under Chapter 474.
The bill also adds a number of limitations on the type of project which may be
financed under Chapter 474 which are subject to a federal limitations act; these
limitations are substantially identical to certain provisions of the present form of H.R.
4170. Industrial development bonds may not be issued to finance any airplane, private
luxury box, any facility primarily used for gambling, or any store the principal business of
which is the sale of alcoholic beverages for consumption off the premises.
The bill also requires that no more than ten percent of the proceeds of an issue of
industrial development bonds may be used to finance moveable equipment unless such
equipment is considered a fixture, and that no more than twenty -five percent of the
proceeds of an issue may be used to finance the acquisition of land. Finally not more
than $10,000,000 principal amount of industrial development bonds which qualify as small
issue IDB's pursuant to Section 103(b)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code, may be issued to
finance any one building which is to be used for commercial, office, industrial or other
purposes, regardless of whether ownership of the building is divided under condominium
ownership. This provision is primarily intended to place a volume limit on the use of a
number of small -issue industrial development bonds to finance separate condominium
projects in the same building.
10. Conformance to provisions of federal limitation act.
a. Executive Order
The bill authorizes the governor to issue an executive order consistent with the
terms of the bill if the bill is not effective for allocating bonding authority under a
federal limitation act.
b. Override of Federal Priority
H.R. 4170 creates a preference as to allocation for obligations which were given
preliminary approval prior to October 19, 1983. The state bill provides that
entitlement issuers are not required to use a portion of their allocation for such
projects, and that other local issuers are not required to apply for an allocation for
such projects.
