ation of the lights. He then moved to defer action until the next

Council meeting to allow time to check on the amount in the budget
for this project. Seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, the motion car-
ried unanimously.
.,(b) CONSIDERATION OF DELINQUENT WATER ACCOUNTS - (DEFERRED FROM FEBRUARY 8,
1977)
City Engineer Priebe told the Council that letters had been mailed to
all delinquent account holders and property owners requesting they ap-
pear at the March 8, 1977 Council meeting or make proper payment prior
to that date. In the case where a new renter has moved in, he is not
responsible for the bill of a former tenant at the same address. The
delinquent bill would then become the responsibility of the property
owner.
Mayor Black indicated that proper notice had been given to all
parties involved, and he asked if there was anyone present who wished
to be heard.
Eldon Willard, property owner of 504 Bluff Street, stated that he would
take the responsibility of the delinquent account from a previous renter.
He was then informed that the bill had already been paid by the former
tenant.
City Engineer Priebe remarked that a letter had been sent to the wrong
property owner for 605 Third Avenue S.E. A new letter will be mailed to
the proper owner, and no action will be taken on Delinquent Account No.
4-0930-1-00 at this time.
Delinquent Water Account No. 1-0645-0-00, Alton Wickland, 605 Main
Street S., in the amount of $47.58 was reviewed. It was noted that
Mr. Wickland has been making weekly payments on his account since Feb-
ruary .7, 1977. It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B.
Peterson, to accept the weekly payments and continue water service.
Motion carried unanimously.
Delinquent Water Account No. 4-0265-0-00, James Deragon, 540 Monroe
Street S., in the amount of $116.13 was reviewed. It was noted that
Mr. Deragon had paid $50 on March 7, 1977 and promised to pay $50 in
two weeks, with the balance to be paid in April. After discussion, it
was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to accept
the above stated arrangements for payment. Motion carried unanimously.
Delinquent Water Account No. 4-0290-0-00, Roger Voss, 510 Monroe Street
S., in the amount of $43.92 was reviewed. It was noted that a payment

r Delinquent Water Account No. 10-0265-0-00, Mrs. Ruth Piehl, 621 Juul
Road, in the amount of $39.24 was reviewed. It was noted that a pay-
ment of $20 was made on February 16, 1977. After discussion, it was

ried unanimously.

Harrington Avenue, in the amount of $56.37 was reviewed. It was noted
that Mr. Duesterhoeft has made payments on his account. After dis-
cussion, it was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peter-
son, to continue water service since payments had been made. Motion
carried unanimously.
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to im-
mediately discontinue water service for all delinquent accounts, with
the exception of the five above accounts where partial payments have
been made and the one account where the wrong property owner was noti-
fied. Motion carried unanimously.
9. NEW BUSINESS
(a) DESIGNATION OF PARKING METERS FOR HUTCHMOBILE
Acting Director Pauley had received a memo from Police Chief O'Borsky
regarding the problem of parking space for the Hutchmobile. His recom-
mendation was that the Council vacate trio meters on the east side of
Franklin Street closest to City Hall for the purpose of "bus parking
only." Mr. Pauley requested the Council to approve this recommendation.
After discussion, it was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman
B. Peterson, to approve the above designated parking meters for the
Hutchmobile with the recommendation of Chief O'Borsky. Motion carried
unanimously.
(b) PRESENTATION TO COUNCIL - ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS; CONSIDERATION OF
BUILDING PERMIT FOR ADDITION TO COKE PLANT BY DUANE BUSKE
Duane Buske, owner of the Coca Cola Plant, appeared before the Council
and presented a sketch of proposed plans. He pointed out that the
present 10' single dock is 10 or 11 years old and a wooden structure
which is in need of change. At the present time a canvas door is being
used. The proposed plans would call for two 20' docks from the north
and an entry door on the east side of the plant. A large overhead door
-5-
Council Minutes
March 8, 1977
would come down over the entrance and docks to enclose the area and
conserve on heat. Mr. Buske is requesting a variance.
Community Development Director Pauley reported that Mr. Buske had met
with him and Bud Willard to discuss the proposal. At that time Mr.
Pauley had suggested he appear before the Council. Inasmuch as the
Coca Cola Plant is located in a R-2 Zone, a variance would not help
the situation. He, therefore, recommends rezoning of the area.
Mayor Black remarked that he did not feel the City should restrict
a business from expanding and should consider rezoning an area if it
is necessary.
Alderman Haag concurred with the Mayor and pointed out that one of the
reasons for the remodeling is an effort to save on heat. He further
felt that the City should help Mr. Buske achieve his goal.
City Engineer Priebe asked what would be considered for rezoning and
suggested that perhaps consideration should be given to a total area
rather than just one business.
Mayor Black recommended a hearing be set for April to consider the re-
zoning of the area around the Coca Cola Plant after the Planning Com-
mission has considered rezoning.
It was moved by Alderman B. Peterson, seconded by Alderman Haag, to
refer the consideration of rezoning to the Planning Commission. Motion
carried unanimously.
(c) CONSIDERATION OF RECOMMENDATION OF AIRPORT COMMISSION REGARDING AIRPORT
STUDY
Community Development Director Pauley reported that the Airport Com-
mission had met to discuss the development recommendation and the Air-
port Master Plan. It is the Commission's wish to meet with the City
Council and receive their approval before they proceed further.
Mayor Black instructed Mr. Pauley to make the arrangements for setting
up a meeting between the Council members and Airport Commissiod.
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to
defer action to a special meeting of the Airport Commission with the
City Council. Motion carried unanimously.
(d) CONSIDERATION OF WEST RIVER PARK OPERATING RULES
It was felt that the operating rules for the West River Park should be
kept to a minimum. The following list of policies was approved by the
Ir:�
Council Minutes
March 8, 1977
Parks and Recreation Board on March 2, 1977:
1. Season Dates: May 1 to September 15 (weather permitting)
.- 2. Maximum Length of Stay: 1 week without prior City approval
3. Rates: Water and Sewer Hook -Up - $1.00/night
Electrical Hook -Up - $2.00/night
Electrical & Water & Sewer- $3.00/night
4. Payments will be made through the use of a deposit box and envelopes.
The box will be emptied on a regular basis by the Police or a Super-
visor.
5. Reservations will not be taken during this first season.
6. A pay phone and garbage dumpsters will be placed in specified
locations.
The cost of the pay phone, $12.50/month less calls made, and dump-
sters, $16.50/month each, will be offset by the profits hopefully
to be made on the rates.
7. All park buildings will be open 24 hours a day during the season.
8. The park will be maintained by Park Department personnel.
Alderman Haag asked about -the policy of collecting fees. He wondered
if campers would be honest and deposit their money in the collection
box.
Mayor Black remarked that many state parks are operated in this manner,
and most campers make their deposits in the box.
Community Development Director Pauley reported that he had written to
five municipal camp grounds in the stAte. He received replies from
three out of the five, and they run their camp ground in this way.
After discussion, it was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman
B. Peterson, to approve the above stated operating rules for the West
River Park. Motion carried unanimously.
10. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) COMMUNICATIONS FROM CLERK -ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANT
Administrative Assistant Plotz reported on his telephone conversation
with Mrs. John Geiss regarding her outstanding claim. He pointed out
that there is no way of knowing who waited on Mrs. Geiss and what date
she came into City Hall to pay her bills. Mr. Plotz asked the -Council
what action they wished to take on this matter.
Alderman Haag commented that this was his first experience with this
type of situation and moved to consider the account paid and verify
da
Council Minutes
March 8, 1977
the claim. Seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, the motion carried unan-
imously.
Administrative Assistant Plotz reported on the new requirements of the
State of Minnesota, Department of Public Safety, effective March 1,
1977, which require the Motor Vehicle Office to accept applications for
bicycle registration, issue stickers, receive fees and make daily re-
ports, and maintain records on registration. The State law will super -
cede any present law the City has on bicycle registration. Until such
time as the Council passes an Ordinance requiring mandatory registra-
tion, it will be on a voluntary basis for those wishing to have their
bicycles registered. He pointed out that a mandatory law would re-
quire about 1,000 bicycles to be registered and present additional
work for the office workers. Of the amount collected for bicycle
registration ($3.50), only 50(,% per registration goes to the City.
Mayor Black commented that he felt the appropriate action at this time
would be to repeal the City's present Ordinance requiring mandatory
registration for bicycles and require State law by reference.
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to
waive first reading of Ordinance No. 5/77 entitled Ordinance Repealing
Section 415:00 of the 1974 Ordinance Code of the City of Hutchinson
Relating to Bicycle Licenses and set second reading for March 22, 1977.
Motion carried unanimously.
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to
waive first reading of Ordinance No. 6/77 entitled Ordinance Repealing
Section 570:20 of the 1974 Ordinance Code of the City of Hutchinson
Relating to Bicycle Licenses and set second reading for March 22, 1977.
Motion carried unanimously.
Administrative Assistant Plotz made reference to his memo regarding a
federal funding program for personnel through CETA. He indicated that
Hutchinson has been allocated one position for an employee in a special
program. Although we have not made a firm commitment for the program,
it is his consideration of hiring a person under this program to in-
stall outdoor meter readers. Mr. Plotz then asked the Council'for
their thoughts regarding this CETA program.
City Engineer Priebe responded by stating that he sees a real need for
the City to accomplish the installation of outdoor meter readers as
soon as possible. Once the entire City has outdoor meters, the sewer
and water billing can be put on a monthly basis instead of quarterly
as at present.
Alderman Haag asked what kind of response had been received on the in-
stallation of outdoor meters.
Council Minutes
March 8, 1977
Mayor Black remarked that the City should speed up the process so that
the meters get installed in tho-'near future. The cost of installing
meters is rising, and it is a waste of manpower to have two men going
around reading meters when one person could do the job. He further
stated that he was in favor of the CETA program and authorized the Ad-
ministrative Assistant to proceed with the CETA funding program.
(b) COMMUNICATIONS FROM MAYOR
Mayor Black commented on the ventilating system project at Burns Manor
which had been let on January 13, 1976 to Peterson Sheet Metal of Alex-
andria. The vent hood installation in the kitchen has not been completed,
and the work is not satisfactory. He further reported that Mr. Roger W.
Patch, architect of Patch Erickson Madson Inc., recommends that the bond-
ing company be contacted for fulfillment of the contract.
City Attorney Schantzen was called upon for legal counsel. His recom-
mendation was to contact the bonding company, although he had some ques-
tion on the amount of time which has elapsed since the letting. Mr.
Schantzen also indicated that the bonding company might not be involved
inasmuch as this is a matter of guarantee on work performed.
Mayor Black authorized City Attorney Schantzen to contact the bonding
company for completion of the work.
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to
authorize City Attorney Schantzen to contact the contractor for comple-
tion of the project. Motion carried unanimously.
Mayor Black commended the Motor Vehicle Office.for the high rating it
received on the annual performance evaluation report from the Depart-
ment of Public Safety. He further stated that he felt a Resolution of
Commendation should be sent to the Motor Vehicle Office and staff.
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to
waive the reading and adopt Resolution No. 5939 entitled Resolution
Commending the Motor Vehicle Office. Motion carried unanimously.
Mayor Black made reference to the letter and financial report received
from Hands, Inc.
Mayor Black noted that the term of June Otterness expires March 31, 1977,
and she has completed the maximum number of years of service on the Hos-
pital Board. He appointed Rollis Balke to fill the vacancy. .
It was moved by Alderman Haag, seconded by Alderman B. Peterson, to
ratify the appointment of Rollis Balke to the Hospital Board for a
five year term. Motion carried unanimously.

priate funds, with the exception of the four claims withheld. Motion
carried unanimously.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF FINAL PAYMENT FOR SLUDGE DEWATERING EQUIPMENT
City Engineer Priebe referred to a letter received from Rieke Carroll
Muller Associates Inc. and remarked that it is his recommendation that
the City accept the sludge dewatering equipment and make final payment
for same. He also commented that the final analysis on the new belts
from R. B. Carter Co. is that they are not working as well as the old
ones and will be returned.

Black and Alderman Haag.
Vice -Mayor Westlund commented that after further investigation into the mat-
ter of the sewer backup at the home of Mrs. Elvera E. Zupfer, 317 Dale Street,
the Council feels that a revision of the action taken at the February 22, 1977
Council meeting to reimburse Mrs. Zupfer $250 toward replacing the damaged
carpeting in her basement should be made. His recommendation was that an addi-
tional $100 be paid Mrs. Zupfer, totaling a $350 settlement payment.
After discussion, it was moved by Alderman B. Peterson, seconded by Alderman
K. Peterson, to amend the motion of February 22, 1977 and increase the settle-
ment offer by $100 to total $350 upon recommendation of the City Attorney.
Motion carried unanimously.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was
adjourned at 9:20 A.M. on motion by Alderman K. Peterson, seconded by Alderman

POLICE DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
TO:
DATE: March 21, 1977
FROM:
Dean O'Borsky,
Chief
of Police
SUBJECT:
Renewal of
Liquor
Licenses
I have enclosed for your information a synopsis of our activities at
the various places applying for renewal of liquor licenses. As you can see,
we have had several calls to the Dinner Bell for various types of problems.
I don't feel at this time that their license should not be renewed. However,
I believe we should take into consideration the fact that we continue to have
problems here.
I realize that we will. continue to have problems any place liquor is
served; what concerns me is the lack of cooperation which we have sometimes re-
ceived from bar tenders on duty. For instance, on one occasion two of our officers
went to the Dinner Bell with the intent of arresting a person for whom we had a
warrant. In the process of affecting that arrest, which was done in the ante room
outside the bar, the officers were accosted by the bar tender and he told them to
leave and he caused something of a disturbance until he was straightened out by the
officers involved.
The Dinner Bell encourages heavy drinking by having lengthy happy hours and
has a tendency to pour a very stiff drink. Combine this with the fact that its
clientele consists of many vocational school students and other youthful persons
and the probability for police related problems increases greatly.
As I stated before this memo is for your own information and I am not rec-
ommending at this time they not have their license renewed but I would like to
suggest that we continue to keep a close eye on this particular place.
The other location to which we've been called on occasion is the VFW Club.
Most of these problems have been the result of persons becoming extremely drunk.
I feel that most of these altercations could have been stopped by bar tenders or
managers cutting off the persons involved prior to them becoming so intoxicated.
I think the time has come for us to make some suggestions to the clubs that
they become more concerned about allowing members only into their clubs. I know
for a fact that anyone can get into the Legion or the VFW or the Elks on just
about any time they want to, particularly on a Friday and Saturday night. This is
in violation, I believe, of their liquor license and their status as a private club.
I'd like to see you at least make mention to these individual clubs that we would
like to see them at least tighten up somewhat this particular problem.
All in all we have minimal problems in Hutchinson with our bars compared to
what other communities are facing. I think that continued vigilance on our part
will assure that this will continue in the future.

Dear Fellow Minnesotan:
We need your help.
FF k 977 �N
P
CO 4\E.-E'1fr'D cN»
C ti
612-296-3000
The law which created the Minnesota Department of Transportation
requires that our department prepare a comprehensive transporta-
tion plan by July, 1978. We agree that Minnesota needs a plan
to guide transportation decisions and that this plan must respond
to the needs and interests of all Minnesotans. This is where we
need help from concerned organizations like yours. We need to
know what you and the people you represent think the principal
transportation issues are.
Your response could cover almost anything --from repairing roads,
relieving traffic congestion or alleviating restrictions to im-
proving railroad service, or building more airports. You could
tell us to build more roads and bridges, or to stop; to emphasize
rail or truck or water transport; or, to establish more bikeways
or promote improved public transit. You might have suggestions
on energy convervation, regulatory matters, environmental issues
or use of pipelines; or electronic communications to decrease
transportation needs. Finally, you might wish to comment on the
most appropriate role of state government in any or all trans-
portation issues.
We have developed a three -phased approach to involve you in the
development of the plan. Currently, we are in the first phase of
our transportation plan. We call it the "issues identification"
phase. We need to hear from as many people as possible, telling
us what they think the issues are and what a transportation plan
should include.
In Phase II, we will be looking at alternative approaches to
addressing issues identified in Phase I. How do we balance all
the competing issues? Here we will need your help again --to
review our evaluation of the issues and tell us which issues are
more important and which are less important. In Phase II we may
be asking citizens and groups with widely different viewpoints to
meet together so that trade offs between issues can be identified.

In Phase III we will be formalizing a draft plan. Based on the
alternatives discussed in Phase II, we will be looking for your
input one more time to help us decide which alternative to
recommend.
We -are calling this entire process Mn/DOT/PLAN. The emphasis will
be on public involvement and participation.
To make this participation process work, I repeat, we need your
help. Please do the following three things to insure the most
effective participation in Mn/DOT/PLAN.
1. At your next meeting discuss the transportation issues you
think are the most important and send your list to us by
May 8, and/or plan to attend one of our March or April regional
public meetings to present your views in person.
2. At the same time, designate and identify to us someone who will
be your Mn/DOT/PLAN liaison. That person will receive regular
mailings on the progress of the plan, upcoming meetings, etc.
3. Be convinced that we want your input and that it will help us.
You are the only one who can assure that the plan reflects your
interests.
Any questions? Send them or any other correspondence to Mn/DOT/
PLAN, State Transportation Building, St. Paul, Mn 55155 - or call
Mn/DOT/PLAN at (612) 296-3152.
We look forward to working with you on the development of Mn/DOT/
PLAN, our State's Transportation Plan.

Pursuant to the probationary period provisions of Hutchinson's Personnel
Policy I have met with By on several occassions. At these meetings which
Dorothy BrauA, Hazel Sitz, or Marlow Priebe have also attended, we have
discussed By's performance as a full-time driver for the Transit System.
It would appear that By has not effectively adjusted to his position and
that a good working relationship with other members of the Transit System
and City employees in general has not developed. It is my recommendation,
therefore, that By's employment with the City of Hutchinson be terminated

SUBJECT: _Prairie House Variance Request
The Prairie House submitted a request for a variance from Section 10.05 B.1.
which would allow for the placement of a business sign in the front five feet
of the setback.
A review of the request found that the conditions comply with those conditions
required to exist for the issuance of a variance. It was noted, however, that
there are four other signs which are non -conforming and in the same area that
the new sign would be, namely, two Pennzoil and two gasoline price signs. As
these signs are non -conforming it was the recommendation of staff that the
variance be granted coritingent upon the removal of the aforementioned four
non -conforming signs.
At their regular meeting on March 15th, the Planning Commission recommended approval
of the request contingent upon the removal of the other signs.

SUBJECT: —Renewal of Lease for Office Space in Old Armory by CETA — — —
The City of Hutchinson and the Department of Administration, State of Min-
nesota, have had a lease for office space on the second floor of the Old
Armory for the purpose of administrating the CETA program.
The proposed contract of $100 per month over the next six months represents
a change from the present rental of $90 per month.
The additional $10 per month represents an amount sufficient to recoup
the investment for the construction by the Strget Department of two port-
able dividers. The estimated cost of materials is $100.
This improvement is at the request of Mr. Peter Jewel, local CETA coordin-
ator, and Mr. Gary Erickson, Regional CETA Supervisor, and was coordinated
through the State Department of Administration.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor D. J. Black, City Council and Administrative Assistant
FROM: Dean O'Borsky, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Purchase of artificial resuscitation equipment
As you know, the Police Department responds to all emergency ambulance
runs and fixes within the city limits of Hutchinson. Because we daily come
across lifesaving situations we have always tried to maintain a high degree
of training and skill in this area. In the past we have been limited in our
ability to react to heart attack cases particularly and have had to rely on
mouth-to=mouth resuscitation and CPR.
A few months ago I became interested in supplying and training our officers
with an artificial resuscitation device, more commonly known as an Ambu-bag. I
contacted the hospital administrator and he queried the physicians on the staff
as to their feelings in regarding the training and use of this equipment by the
Police Department. They were favorable and encouraged us to do so because they
felt it would be a more efficient method of maintaining life support while the
ambulance is en route to the scene of an emergency.
Classes have been conducted by'Community Service Officer Monge, who is a
certified instructor in the use of the Ambu-bag. All of our officers are com-
petent in its use and I feel are now much more able to provide assistance in
application of artificial respiration through the use of this device.
Although I have not specifically budgeted for this item I don't believe the
cost is exorbitant in terms of the value that we will receive from it. To fully
equip all three of our marked cars with the Ambu-bag and with resuscitators and
airways can be done for a total of $225.00. This, -money could either be taken
from the budget of the Community Service Officer under operating supplies or from
the Police Department small tools and equipment budget.
I have submitted a purchase order proposal along with this memo for your
consideration. I hope that we can get this program started as quickly as possible.
Respectfully slbmitted,
Dean M. O'Borsky

COORDINATOR A,ID BUILDING SUI?SRIN'TENDENT
In preparing plans for t -ie new FAMILY CENTER, I feel my experience of direct
involvement or complete responsioility for j new business developmer*s during
my business: career a -rest asset for the position of Coordinator. Two of the
largest being Donaldson of Rochester and Donaldsons at Southdale. I have had
to get a harmonious functionii.;; or_;aniiation together, lay down general policies
and guide lines, and stimulate iriLerest in Laese businesses.
Being on a first name basis wiz,_: almost all ousiness men in the area, it should
enable me to get professional and firranciai support in advertising and display
space. Again my experience to obtain maximum results for the dollar spent, and
the knowledge of attractin`, at�anrion of the public and educating the public to
s spec-ific purpose is aelpful. Intelligent mapping of a advertising campaign
is essential when workin. witU a limited budget.
I am familiar with standard bookeepinb procedures, and can develop and maintain
proper recordsa, and reporLs. Budgets, inventory control, work schedules, purchasing
materials and supplies iiava been a every day activity of my business day* my
experience with the old Lake Marion Ballroom in booking receptions., meetings,
banquets, shows and dances closely follows the schedwliatg needed for the Family
Center.
With my mechanical engineering oack6round, I amm familar with many mechanical
products which will be par'. of t�:e paysical equipment in the new building. Also
I can analyze problems aria perform normal naii.tenance on them. I have always
stressed safety for Lae iealt.. u;d protection: of employees and participants. I
have built most of mf owLi '1o:::e, completely remodeled another house, and added
on a large addition to iy atore in Hutcl;inson. In addition I designed and helped in
building the new Lake Marion Baliroom. I have always been interested in construction
of some kind.
I have always been atr:letically inclined, and can appreciate what a facility
the Family Center means to t::e Hutc;iinson area. I have 'leen a Red Cross First
Aid instructor so I could Live e:uergeney first aid if ouch is needed at the center.
I can see many, many uses for t::is building if it is promoted pooperly.
Ky present position i:: st..a.. L -at I could etart work at any time. In the event
this position is part tine artil construction. is completed, thda would be agret'ab1F

With the submission of the preliminary draft to the study Committee; all
inventory, survey and interview work has been completed which has resulted
in a projection of needs and an analysis of alternative sites. The Committee
will recommend sites and functional designs with cost estimates, a schedule
for development and general implementation steps resulting from these recom-
mendations.
The study should be completed by August, 1977.
K. Transportation - not contracted.
L. Public Works - not contracted.
As the determination of public priorities, revision of the Comprehensive Plan
and development of a Capital Improvement program cannot occur until all of the
aforementioned studies are completed, it is impossible to determine when these
