Also, he proposed that the money received from the sale of-City-owned property be used to purchase a bass pond which would be added to the City's park system. City Administrator Plotz stated the two tracts of land located behind Peter- son Circle had no access for the City to cut weeds on the property. He felt it was in the best interest of the City to sell the land. Parks and Recreation Director Ericson reported the Park and Recreation Board was concerned that the properties by the Bridge be left in a natural state, with no buildings to be erected.

(b) CONSIDERATION OF DELINQUENT WATER AND SEWER ACCOUNTS Mayor Westlund read a copy of the letter sent to all delinquent account holders.

Also, deferred assessments could be added on the computer, with a reference back to detailed information avail- able. It was further reported that the LOGIS Director had recommended the purchase of a MicroWest MKII CRT Terminal for the City of Hutchinson at a cost ofd $3,000.00. The payment for this terminal would come from the 1980 bond money which resulted from extra interest earned. Mr. Jim DeMeyer commented on his experience with realty transfers of an ual amounts due to the county and stated the county's numbering is differene from what the City uses. He felt it would be beneficial to have this information tied together on the computer. It was also requested that the county inform the City when they change their numbering system.

The City of Litchfield has opposed the legislation as -4- COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 24, 1981 not in the best interest of the city, and it was felt the City of Hutchinson should do likewise. The proposed legislation would place the local Firemen's Relief Association pension benefits in jeopardy on an annual basis and is not consistent with long -range financial planning. It was recommended that the City of Hutchinson oppose the proposed legislation by adoption of a Resolution. The motion was made by Alderman Beatty, seconded by Alderman Lueneburg and unanimously carried, to waive reading and adopt Resolution No. 6727 entitled Resolution Opposing the Reallocation of Fire State Aid to Any Purpose Other Than Presently Mandated. (f) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR VARIANCE SUBMITTED BY BLOCHER ADVERTISING CO. WITH FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION FROM PLANNING COMMISSION City Administrator Plotz reported that although the Planning Commission granted approval fora one -year period, with a yearly renewal, for a variance and con- ditional use permit to allow construction of .a billboard, it was the recommenT dation of the City staff to table the matter at this time. It was felt that Blocher Advertising Company should supply the City.with a- scaled survey of the proposed location of the sign _since no lot corners._are.evident on the property. Mr. Plotz further pointed out that the City Attorney is preparing data on bill- boards and signs, which will be available soon. Following discussion, Alderman Gruenhagen moved to defer action on this mat- ter until such time as the Planning Commission had reviewed and /or revised the City's sign ordinance. Seconded by Alderman Peterson, the motion carried unanimously. (g) CONSIDERATION OF REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT SUBMITTED BY BLOCHER ADVERTISING CO.

The motion was seconded by Alderman Lueneburg and unanimously carried. -5- COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 24, 1981 (i) CONSIDERATION OF TEN -YEAR LEASE WITH WELDING SUPPLY INC. Park & Recreation Director Ericson stated the City currently has a lease with Welding Supply Inc. for one tank of 122 oxygen /30 medium acetylene which is located at the street garage. Since this tank is too heavy and awkward to transport, it is necessary to enter into another lease for a tank at the park garage. The 10 -year lease would cost $194.50. After discussion, it was moved by Alderman Peterson, seconded by Alderman Lueneburg and unanimously carried, to approve the 10 -year lease with Weld- ing Supply Inc. of Willmar, Minnesota. (j) CONSIDERATION OF APPLICATION FOR RETAIL "ON SALE" NON - INTOXICATING MALT LIQUOR LICENSE FOR HUTCHINSON JAYCEES ON JUNE 7, 1981 City Administrator Plotz reported the Hutchinson Jaycees plans to hold a Blue Grass Concert °.at ~the McLeod County Fairgrounds on June 7, 1981.

Also present were Fred Roberts, Assistant Director of Maintenance, Bruce Ericson, Park & Recreation Director, Bruce Peterson, representing the Council, Mary Haugen, Civic Arena Coordinator, Mark Schnobrich, Forestry, Cliff Paulsen, Parks, Sherry Crawford of the Leader, and Grace Sanstead, Secretary. The minutes of the January meeting were read and approved by Dr. Chernausek. Bruce Ericson presented a budget review for 1981. Rollie Jensen suggested cutting costs by having Babe Ruth Baseball help Peanuts I and II Baseball, and the Legion help Babe Ruth Baseball etc. Bruce Ericson asked the board about rearranging handling of umpire costs. If umpires don't show up, they don't get paid. In Duluth there is no budgeting by the City for umpire costs. The team playing each other split the umpire fees at the game, making less entry fees for teams at the game, making less work for the Recreation Dept. The Board agreed this was a good idea to try this year and Rollie Jensen offered to sit on a committee that discusses the summer baseball program. Mary Haugen was asked about -the plexiglass, and said they would have to buy this themselves as there was no money available for repairs. Bruce Peterson expressed concern over the fact that he cannot get plans and specifications on the construction of the arena and repairs on the northeast corner are imperative. Bruce said he would write a letter and Fred Roberts volunteered to try to get the plans on the construction of the arena. Bruce reported Penny Klitzke would be out for six weeks because of illness and a card will be sent her, from the Park & Recreation Board. Cliff Paulsen said he had redesigned tables as they would tip and don't now, and has devised a way of marking Park tables and chairs so they cannot be stolen. Fred Roberts and Cliff have been working on a vehicle replacement for the Park Department. A portion of the Park crews have been trimming trees, They have cleaned up along the north side of the Crow River from Main Street to Kouba Point, this consists of all the brush growing out of the rocks along the river. They plan on continuing eastward from Main Street past the Firemen's Park. Mark Schnobrich announced Hutchinson was made Tree City U.S.A. by the National Arbor Day Foundation. Material will be forth coming to advertise the City and its reward. About 20 trees have been pruned each day till the cold weather; when it was too cold to do this work. Bruce Ericson announced the City has under consideration selling of two lots on the corners of School Road Bridge and wants the Park & Recreation Board to express their opinion on the matter. Bruce thought it would be nice to put chairs and tables in one area. West of the School Road, trees have been planted. All members felt access to these areas are limited and one member said there was about 20 feet access off Lewis Ave. The southwest area was too close to residential areas. After much discussion, Kathy McGraw made a motion the City maintain the southeast area and leave it in its natural state and not as an additional park area, seconded by Roy Johnsen and passed by the Board. There being no furhter business, Dr. Chernausek adjourned the meeting at 1 p.m.. the next meeting to be held at noon on March 4th.

County, Minnesota 0 CONFIDENTIAL POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Chief Dean M. O'Borsky SUBJECT: Liquor License Application • DATE March 6, 1981 An investigation by the Hutchinson Police Department shows that Mr. and Mrs. Johanning are currently opening Max's liquor lounges in shopping centers in Worthington, MN, Watertown, S.D., and Sioux City, Iowa. Record checks indicated no problems in Worthington or Watertown. Each of these establishments were described as newly opened, it should be noted that the liquor license application in the name of Mrs. Johanning in Hutchinson was made although all of the negotiations and conversations with Marilyn Swanson at City Hall were done by her husband Ronald Johanning. This may indicate some evasiveness or subterfuge on his part. A criminal record check on Ronald Johanning indicates as follows: [1] 4 -2 -77 Selling Afterhours; Nobles County Court -Fined $300 [2] 2 -17 -81 Selling Intoxicating Liquor to Minor; Grand Jury Indictment - Nobles County -Fined $1000 with $500 suspended Both of these incidents stem from his ownership of Ping's Bar in Adrian, Minnesota. The following information is opinion and conjecture by law enforcement officials in that area, who describe him as being a smooth talking individual but have suspected his bar of illegal operations. There is also some question among those persons contacted who know him as to where he is obtaining his financing from. The conviction which is noted above for selling intoxicating liquor to a minor involved the sale of beer to a 16 year juvenile. In my opinion the Council may wish to take a further look into this particular application and perhaps question Mr. Johanning as to his back- ground and record. Perhaps it would be a good idea to further inquire into the applicants in person prior to the issuance of the license. DMO:neb 2.

Also, in the Parks budget there is money allocated for the purchase of a utility vehicle with an infield pro attachment. Rather than replacing the tractor and jeep with similar vehicles, I am recommending the purchase of two Toro Grounds - master 72's or equivalent equipment with cabs and one snow blower attachment, one broom attachment and two 72" mowing decks. The Toros will both be able to be used year around and are better suited for the type of work these vehicles are used for; mowing, and snow removal on sidewalks and rinks. I have discussed these purchases with the Director of Maintenance Operations, and he also agrees that these vehicles will be very versatile and are appropriate in meeting our needs. There is $21,500 budgeted and I am requesting that we take bids on vehicles of this type. CC: Ralph Neumann q— _e_--,.

Absent: Alderman Beatty. Also present: City Administrator Plotz and Orlin Henke, Training Chief of Fire Department. The City Council met at 10:00 A.M. on Wednesday, March 4, 1981 for the purpose of discussing selection of a site for the new fire station. Mayor Westlund stated that a month ago the Council decided not to choose a site prior to the fire station referendum inasmuch as the preferred site was unobtain- able. It had also been determined that the new fire station would be located with- in a 12 -block radius of the downtown area. He now felt, however, that it might be a selling point for the referendum to have a site selected so the voters would know where the proposed fire station would be located. The Mayor stated he and the City Administrator had discussed a location on city -owned property in the area of Frank Motor on Highway 7 East. This would eliminate the expenditure for purchase of land. Also, this site would have accessibility to the two shopping centers, 3M and the downtown. Orlin Henke expressed the opinion that Highway 7 East would be a good location as it would have good accessibility to the major highways. He also thought it would be a good idea to move the fire station away from the downtown area. The firemen had considered this site before, but it had received unfavorable response. However, the town is moving to the south, and the two shopping centers and 3M are also lo- cated in that direction. He felt the layout of the building could be changed to accommodate the site. Alderman Gruenhagen stated that several local realtors have purchased property at appraised prices as potential fire station sites with the intention of presenting an option to the City following the referendum. Alderman Peterson suggested an objection to the proposed site might be that the present property gives a park land effect as one comes into the City. Also, child- ren would no longer be able to play there. Alderman Gruenhagen pointed out that the proposed site would provide space for a future police station and /or City Hall. It was the general consensus that a special meeting of the Council and Fire Depart- ment should be held at 9:00 P.M. this evening to discuss the proposed site for the fire station. The meeting adjourned at 10:40 A.M. rIT�(612) 879 -2311 Y OF HUTCH /NSON 37 WASHINGTON AVENUE WEST HUTCHINSON, MINN. 55350 FOR YOUR INFORMATION M E M O R A N D U M DATE: March 10, 1981 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Kenneth B. Merrill, City Accountant SUBJECT: 1981 Real Estate Tax - ------------ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I have attached the 1981 tax rates and value for the different jurisdiction of the county. The City's 1981 mill rate is 36.08 on $31,840,713 of valua- tion. This would compare to 1980 mi -11 rate of 32.25 on $29,312,715.:of the City's valuation increase by 8% in 1981.
