10. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE MAYOR REGARDING JOINT AIRPORT
Mayor Westlund remarked on the proposed joint airport and stated it was 'a
worthwhile project. However, he felt that perhaps the City should put Al
in the background and look at other current projects since there is a lack
of community support for the airport. Also, the question of land condemna-
tion enters in, and the Council members are not in favor of exercising emi-
nent domain to acquire land for the joint airport.
There was a difference of opinion among the Council members as to which di-
rection should be taken on the project.
(b) APPOINTMENT OF MICHAEL A. CARLS'AS ALDERMAN
Mayor Westlund made reference to the resignation of Alderman Bruce Peterson,
effective July 17, 1981, which left a vacancy on the City Council. The
resignation was accepted at the July 14, 1981 Council meeting. Since that
time,three individuals expressed interest in serving on the City Council and
were interviewed for the position of Alderman. Mayor Westlund asked for adop-
tion of a Resolution declaring the office of Alderman vacant and nominations
for this office.
Alderman Beatty made the motion to waive reading and adopt Resolution No.
6920 entitled Declaring Office of Alderman Vacant. Seconded by Alderman
Lueneburg, the motion unanimously carried.
It was moved by Alderman Beatty to nominate Michael A. Carls to the posi-
tion of Alderman and seconded by Alderman Lueneburg. There being no other
nominations, the motion carried unanimously.

City Administrator Plotz reported the City had entered into a purchase
agreement with Citizens Bank & Trust Co. for the sale of the Wigen Build-
ing. This building, as well as the city -owned property at 45 Franklin
Street North, will need to be demolished for the parking program. Prior to
taking bids for removal or demolition of the two structures, it will be neces-
sary to notify the tenants in each building with a 30 -day vacancy notice. It
was recommended to advertise for bids for purchase and /or removal to be
opened on September 1, 1981 at 2:00 P.M.
Mention was made that since the house on Third and Adams was less than $500,
it would not be necessary to advertise it for bids.
It was moved by Alderman Beatty to authorize advertising for bids and to
notify the two tenants to vacate by September 1, 1981. Seconded by Alder-
man Gruenhagen, the motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Plotz referred to a recent newspaper article regarding the Burlington
Northern railroad. Hutchinson, among other cities, has been given a classi-
fication for further study of possible abandonment of the railroad line from
Minneapolis to Hutchinson.
Mention was made that anyone who wishes to rent fungicide equipment from
the City should contact the City Forester.
City Administrator Plotz commented on the alcohol fuel company interested in
relocating in Hutchinson. The City had received correspondence from the
auditor that they need additional information on the company to continue
their study.

this year, but 425 have been counted, which will probably mean Park personnel
will have to help if more money is not forth coming to handle these extra trees.

Wednesday's at West River Park. Bruce reported calcium chloride has been
placed on the roads near the river.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Director of Engineering
RE: Item 9B
Colorado Street
The following items should be considered at this time if approval is given to
the opening of Colorado Street:
1. Estimated cost for grading is $7,500 and for gravel is $4,000. If this is
to be a City Project, the assessment cost would be deferred according to
City Policy.
2. Before underground improvements are made on Colorado, such as sanitary
sewer, watermain and storm sewer, Eighth Avenue will have to be graded and
graveled. This, also, could be done as a City Project with the cost
deferred.
3. At some future time, the access to the Country Club would have to be
closed for short time periods for construction North of Eighth Avenue.
There is no right of way problem, inasmuch as, Colorado Street and Eighth
Avenue are platted streets.
As you may recall, School Road North and East of Seventh Avenue is being
graded this year

The Drug Investigation Unit is in the process of requesting support for 1982.
The funding for this program is now provided totally by county, city private /
public corporations and individuals. The Drug Investigation Unit works
throughout the eighteen county are; therefore, the Unit is requesting a per
capita apportionate share from each county and a minimum of $200.00 from
each city.
The population figures are from the 1.980 Census Of Population And Housing
used by the State of Minnesota, which shows a total population of 304,276.
The total amount of funds needed from the counties combined is $21,299.32
and the total amount of funds needed from the cities combined is $15,000.00.
Attached is a summation of the services the Drug Investigation Unit provides
to each participating county and city. Also, a list of equipment which has
been given to various law enforcement departments and equipment available on
a loan basis is included.
If any additional information is needed or if you have any questions, please
do not hesitate to call. I would also be happy to address the city council
or county commissioners at their convenience.
Thank you for your prompt consideration of this - matter.

FROM: Chief Dean M. O'Borsky
SUBJECT: Region E Drug Investigation Units Request for Funding in Amount of $200.00
The Region E Drug Investigation Unit has been a benefit to the Hutchinson
Police Department. During the period of the last three years Drug Investigation
Unit has provided us with equipment and training for our officers. Officers of
the Hutchinson Police Department have attended a training seminar put on by the
Z
Drug Investigation Unit which was evaluated by them as being excellent. The (fug
Investigation Unit had purchased special equipment that is necessary for surv'1-
lance in a drug investigation for an on -loan basis to departments participating in
that program. Specialized equipment would be far to expensive for individual
departments such as ours to purchase. They also have special personnel on a
request basis that will do.undercover investigation on drug related cases. 1 -�4
believe the amount requested is very insignificant to the benefits that we recppive
from participating in such an organization.

TO: Gary Plotz, City Administrator
FROM: Bruce Ericson, Parks & Recreation Director
DATE: August 11., 1981
SUBJECT: McDonald's Park
On the reverse side is a copy of Ken Merrill's memo regarding the
McDonald's Park Grant. As you can see, there is $24,642.18 budgeted
for 1982. This money is designated for black dirt, sod, and seeding
since all the other items have been bid.
The only problem with this is that in order to have the fields
playable by next year, it is very important that the grass get a start
before winter. It is our original plan to sod the outfields and seed
the remainder of the area around the ballfields, however, if we can
spread black dirt this fall and seed the entire area, we could save the
expense of the sod if the seed takes hold.
Therefore, if it is at all possible, either out of contingency or
the bond fund, I would like to purchase the black dirt and the seed this
fall.
I am requesting that we purchase up to $10,000 in black dirt and
$1,500 in seed.
As you can see, the money is in the Grant, it is just not available
until 1982, and by doing this everything will remain on schedule at
McDonald's Park since everything else seems to be going smoothly.

In summary to date are the following figures:
Revenue $115,115.00
Expenditures 129,364.00
Over -Spent (Includes $10,000 of Underground) - 14,249.00
If the Council desires to go ahead with the dirt work, funds could be used from

from the bonds of 1981. It appears there would be some money available.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION
This letter is intended to provide you with infonnation about the review and
ranking of your FY 1982 preliminary application for a park and recreation
grant. I am pleased to inform you that your application ranked high enough
to be considered further. Congress has not yet passed a funding bill for
the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LAWCON). However, state grants will
be awarded from a FY 1982 appropriation from the Legislative Commission on
Minnesota Resources (LCMR) .
Because we are not anticipating the receipt of any federal LAWCIDN funds for
FY 1982, the maximum grant awarded will probably be 50 percent of the total
project cost. Should LAWCON dollars become available your grant percentage
could be higher, but we are not very optimistic about that prospect.
This does not mean that your application is approved. Therefore, do not
begin any spending on this project. Any work done, money spent, or obliga-
tions incurred for acquisition or development purposes before approval of the
final application cannot be paid with grant funds or used as the local share.
The next step is for you to prepare a final application. The final applica-
tion will be submitted by us to the Legislative Ccamission on Minnesota
Resources and Legislative Advisory Committee for state consideration and, if
federal funds become available, to the National Park Service (NPS) for federal
consideration. These bodies will make final funding reccmuendations regarding
approval, or disapproval, on your application.
In order to assist you in preparation of your final application, meetings
have been scheduled at different locations around the state. The date and
location of your meeting is given on the attached notice. Attendance at
this meeting is very improtant and all applicants are strongly urged to
attend. At this meeting we will discuss the items to be included in your
final application and the amount of the application. By then we may know
if Congress has appropriated funds for the LAWCON program.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark Schnobrich
DATE: August 11, 1981
SUBJECT: Elmwood Utilization, Firewood Sale
The elmwood utilization project is ready to begin production.
Presently, at the utilization site we have two forms of elmwood.
1. DEBARKED LOGS; this wood is the output from the Federal
Demonstration program's mechanical debarker. In order to finish off
this portion of the DNR's project, the wood will be cut and split,
then sold for use as winter fuel. Cost per cord, $40.00.
In order to cut and split this wood, the city will contract out
the labor with city personnel on non -city time. City equipment
to be used will be saws, gas, oil, and loader. A six man crew
at a rate of $7.50 per hour will be utilized. Wood splitter is
available from the DNR at no charge to the project cities.
2. NON- DEBARKED LOGS AND LIMBS; this wood is in the form of
non - debarked elmwood. In order for this wood to be sold, it will
have to be debarked before leaving the utilization site. The
purchaser will be responsible for cutting, debarking, and hauling
the wood out of the utilization area. Cost will be by square foot

FROM: Kenneth B. Merrill, City Accountant
--------------------------------
SUBJECT: 30 -Day Extension for Payment on 1981 Projects
-------------------------- - - - - --
We have sent out approximately 525 notices for the 1981 projects. If the
Council wants to extend the payment period by 30 days, we would need to pre-
pare a letter with the new payment schedule.
The postage cost would be approximately $95.00 plus staff time. It would not
be possible to extend this payment beyond September 30 due to the certification
must be made to the County Auditor no later than October 10 each year.

Re: Audit Fee Proposal
Year Ended December 31, 1981
As you requested, we herewith submit a fee estimate proposal with respect
to the audit for the year ended December 31, 1981. As you well under-
stand, it is always difficult to estimate a city audit fee due to the
changes in funds, ongoing bond issues, volume of transactions, and normal
annual growth of the entity involved. We would anticipate that the time
involved would be similar to last year.
We would anticipate that our work schedule would be similar to previous
years. Our fee estimate for the audit according to generally accepted
accounting standards and an opinion that the report vas presented in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles is as follows:
Based upon our estimate of hours at standard rates for each category
level of staff and assuming the.expectant degree of City accounting assis-
tance for the coming year and further assuming there are no special inter-
nal problems or other consultation or systems work that would not be sub-
ject to an additional proposal, our audit fee would not exceed $14,500.
This fee is $1500 higher than last year which represents an 11.5% increase
The 1980 audit fee was $13,000 which was a $250 increase (2%) over the
1979 audit. For the 1980 audit, our actual fee should have been about
$17,000 at standard rates. We discounted the bill to the $13,000 quote
which we gave you a year ago.
Inflation has increased our rates due to the higher cost of personnel,
travel etc., but I feel that we should be able to hold the fee to the
$14,500 with help from the City staff.
Ken Merrill has also mentioned that the City may want to type their own
report. If at the time, he feels that the City staff can handle this,
we would re- negotiate the fee for this.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION
The Hutchinson Youth Hockey Association Board would like to
express its appreciation to the City Council for not selling
beer during the Oak Ridge Boys concert at the Civic Arena.
Your action to not permit the selling of beer was not only
an act of responsibility, but one of excellent example for
the young people who attended the concert. The entire evening
was void of problems that occur when alcohol is present which
resulted in an extraordinarily enjoyable time for the entire
audience.
Given the success of the concert, it is our hope that future
programs will be scheduled at the arena. Congratulations for
the leadership and example you have displayed!!
Sincerely yours,
An

FOR YOUR INFORMATION
To the Editor;
Ir the days of our pioneers over 200 yra
ago our 0= -=try had probl.emc for greater t .-T) the orer.
we have today bat with Mat pco-ple warizing toFEthcr in
honeat and 107a effort and mucn sacrifice they built
the demacratie Country we have today "the beet in the
world ".
In our problemc today we have a tenderfoot attitude
1-n our leaders and people cunvort of an elected rovern-
lent that con on pyomisec of cle n-JrL up orr po''iticc
and unnecessary Co er n^ert fundinS Arogre "s that have
powerful "me too" and pusgKoot nevrc and politico?
suppoit and are doing nothing to support food old T:oz nie
be3cauvo any action they take might step or the tovc of
local friends that feel that their profit comes first
before loyalty to their Country.
I feel that when informed people refuse to help our
elected government of the people because of sel fi fh
profit that their neighbors have to help pny for is a
little off color.. bike good old Rip perhaps our people
will awake and enjoy a giaoorous new society in our
Country.2haniz you for reading these comments thzt I hone
will be taken in an attitude of good faith by the writer*
