i
Council Minutes
June 27, 1978
Mayor Black commented on the two proposals presented by Travel Host and Holi-
day Inn as well as a letter received from the owner of the King Motel, in which
he expressed interest in expanding his present motel unit. He further pointed
out that the City Council in 1972 and 1973 felt a real need of the community
was a good eating and meeting facility, and as a result, introduced the split
liquor referendum to accommodate this need. All of these proposals will be
contingent upon the use of an industrial revenue bond for financing. It is,
therefore, necessary for the Council to determine whether or not they feel
this is an appropriate use for this type of bond. If the decision is "no",
the proposals will go no further.
After lengthy discussion, it was the general consensus of the Council to sup-
port the use of an industrial revenue bond for building a motel complex in the
City of Hutchinson. It will be the responsibility of the Council to choose
one proposal for use of the industrial revenue bond, with the decision based
upon market surveys presented, facilities for meeting and convention rooms,
food and beverage service planned, and other pertinent information, in accor-
dance with the best interest of the City.
9. NEW BUSINESS
(a) CONSIDERATION OF PRESENTATION BY MR. JOHN MURPHY OF COOLEY BUS LINES FOR
PROPOSED CONCEPT OF SUBSIDIZING PRIVATE INTER -CONNECTING TRANSIT SERVICE
Mr. John Murphy, marketing student of St. Thomas College, appeared before the
Council to represent Cooley Bus Lines. He presented a proposed concept of sub-
sidizing the private inter -connecting transit service owned and operated by
Edward Cooley. The proposal called for commitment of $8,000 to $10,000 from
the nine towns using the bus service along Hwy. 7 between Hutchinson and Min-
neapolis, with $20,000 to be received from the state, for a total of $30,000
for bus service operation for a one-year period. The operating costs would
be approximately $40,000, with projected revenues of $25-30,000.
Mr. Murphy asked the City of Hutchinson to participate in a subsidy for the
service in the amount -of $4,000 for a one-year period from August 1, 1978 to
September 31, 1979, with Minneapolis also providing $4,000,and $500 to $1,000
coming from each of the other seven towns along Hwy. 7. Also, the City was
requested to act as the base station for the subsidy grant, which would be on
a 2/3 and 1/3 basis, and handle the funds and administrative tasks. It was
pointed out that Cooley's is the only bus service not receiving some form of
subsidy.
Mayor Black inquired if bus service would be discontinued to those communi-
ties which do not provide subsidy funds. Mr. Murphy replied they do not have
any option to abandon service to certain towns without petitioning the Public
Service Commission. Mayor Black further commented that Barbara Whittenberg,
Librarian, had conducted a survey of people desiring bus service to and from
Minneapolis on a regular schedule. A total of 235 signatures were received
on the ballots and petitions.

Council Minutes
June 27, 1978
After extensive discussion, it was moved by Alderman Huntwork to approve the
$4,000 subsidy from the City of Hutchinson and have the City act as base sta-
tion for bus service, contingent upon 5 -day a week service, frequent financial
reporting, and a certain amount of funding be provided by the other communities
involved, and authorize the grant application. Seconded by Alderman Gruenhagen,
the motion unanimously carried.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF RECOMMENDATION BY TRANSPORTATION BOARD FOR SHUTTLE BUS
SERVICE PROPOSAL
Administrative Assistant Plotz and Personnel Coordinator Sitz explained the
operation of the experimental shuttle bus service for the Hutchmobile. The
service would run on the half-hour, beginning at the corner of Main Street and
Washington Avenue West, proceeding to the Red Owl-Penney's Lot and Park Towers,
Medical Center -Hospital, Plaza 15 Shopping Center, and back to Park Towers and
Red Owl -Penny's Lot, and ending at Rexall Drug Store corner.
After discussion, it was moved by Alderman Westlund, seconded by Alderman;'.
Huntwork, to approve the shuttle bus service proposal and any variations as
necessary. Motion unaniaously carried.
(c) CONSIDERATION OF RECOMMENDATION BY TRANSPORTATION BOARD FOR IMPLEMENTATION
OF PREMIUM RATE CONCEPT
Administrative Assistant Plotz commented that the problem with operating the
Hutchmobile is the short time given for a call-in for service. A premium rate
of 25t,% might encourage people to call in a day or two in advance. The same-day
service would remain 50(,%.
Alderman Westlund inquired if the call-in rate should be increased to 754� and
the advance/shuttle rate be made 50c. When informed this would require a peti-
tion to the Transportation Board, he suggested that a rate increase be con-
sidered at a future time.
After discussion, it was moved by Alderman Huntwork to approve implementation
of the premium rate concept as recommended by the Transportation Board. Second-
ed by Alderman Westlund, the motion unanimously carried.
(d) CONSIDERATION OF DELINQUENT WATER AND SEWER ACCOUNTS

mously carried.

Administrative Assistant Plotz reported on the meeting of the Park and Rec-
reation Board at which a recommendation was made to remove the garage located
at Les Kouba Point inasmuch as it is an eye -sore to the area.

used for storage purposes, it should be retained. Perhaps a redwood fence
could be built around it and improve the general appearance. The matter
was referred to City Engineer/Public Works Director Priebe for further study.

on naming streets within the City of Hutchinson, and he felt this policy should
still apply even though the plat is outside city limits.

dation of the Planning Commission, subject to renaming the streets as estab-
lished by the Planning Commission policy, and to waive reading and adopt Reso-
lution No. 6151 entitled Resolution Giving Approval of Preliminary Plat for

convention. Mrs. Thompson also attended the trustees meeting. Mr. Asp was the speaker.
He brought up at the meeting that the trustees do not at this time pay into the Legal

was discussed at the meeting and our board at this time is opposed to it. Mrs. Thompson
has held a "Speak Out" and she will be having a couple more this coming summer. Mrs.
Reckdahl will also be conducting one.

interested people, commissioners, OPLIC, and Mr. Sundberg and Mrs. Matson over the

to join CRRL, all of our governing bodies would have to approve the agreement.

for innovative and experimental programs; (these three would affect us); (4) Grants
for sharing of library materials; and (5) Grants for improving library services at
