NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF HUTCHINSON, MINNESOTA AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. It is hereby determined that the existing parking
facilities in the City of Hutchinson are wholly
inadequate to provide the required space for automobile parking in the

now operated by the City or presently to be acquired, which revenues
will be derived from sales, rentals, fees and charges for the use of
such parking facilities.

expedient for the City to issue and sell revenue
bonds in the amount of $100,000 payable solely from the net revenues of
the parking system. Said bonds shall be dated August 1, 1970, shall be
in denomination of $5,000 each and numbered 1 to 20 both inclusive,

REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING -12- JULY 13, 1970
Questions were then raised about the condition and maintenance of the old
hospital building and possible uses for it. The Administrative Assistant
was directed to contact other government agencies and ascertain the possi-
bility or utility of short-term use of the building.
Alderman Black then raised a question of burning of tires at the tree dump
and stated that he had received complaints about that happening. Engineer
Priebe stated that occasionally the Park Superintendent will use a tire to
start a pile of green wood and brush but seldom. A week or two previously,
someone had carried fire to the pile of tires that were kept for this use
and started a small fire which was shortly extinguished. The Council then
made it plain that we shall not allow any burning other than wood and brush
at this site from henceforth.
Alderman Black then stated that he had received several reports of other than
City vehicles drawing gasoline from the City's bulk plant. It was decided
that the most probable cause of the complaints would be the unmarked cars
leased by the police Department. The Administrative Assistant was
directed to investigate the situation and determine whether or not it was
possible that other private cars were taking gasoline.
The City Clerk reported that the difficulties of getting out notices to so
many property owners relative to the rezoning of half blocks on Franklin
Street prevented a hearing on the appointed day of July 20th. A hearing
was then set for Monday, August 17, 1970 at 8:00 P.M. at the regular
Planning Commission meeting.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting
adjourned at 10:11 P.M.

Mayor Kost then recognized Mr. Kenneth Born, principal of Midwest Modules Incorporated
to present his request for special use permit to construct a mobile home court in
Westwood Acres development on the South edge of the City. The matter had been reported
by the Planning Commission with no recommendation.
Mr. Born explained that the original request for approval of 200 units had been diminished
and they were requesting only 18 units for construction in calendar year 1970 and 40
units in calendar year 1971. This would take only about ten acres of the 66 acres
in the development and would also provide screening distance from Highway 15 and other
present or potential developments around the 66 acre parcel.
Several interested citizens of the community appeared to question the effect of the
requested mobile home park. There ensued a vigorous discussion that covered the space
of about two hours. Alderman Black moved approval of the permit as requested with
certain conditions to be detailed in later agreement. Alderman Linder seconded and
upon being put to vote Alderman Black and Linder and Mayor Kost voted "Aye". Alderman
Peterson and Alrick voted "Nay". The motion was declared passed.
Motion was made by Alderman Black, seconded by Alderman Linder that transfers of monies
be authorized in the following particulars. From Water and Sewer fund, $37,500 to sin-
king fund #6 for debt retirement. From Hospital fund, $32,000 to sinking fund #7 for
debt retirement. All present voted "Aye" and the motion was declared passed.

At the request of Administrative Assistant M.ealey the Council directed an advertise-
ment calling for bids on the annual supplies of gasoline and diesel fuel. Bids are
to be opened at 8:00 P.M. on Monday, July 27 in the Council Chambers.
Mayor Kost then recognized Mr. Tom Harstad who gave a report on recommendations to
improve the utility of parking meters in the downtown area. No action was taken
pending further decision on the off street parking program of the City.
A committee from the Chamber of Commerce next appeared to urge the sale of $100,000
revenue bonds to refund present indebtedness for off-street parking and development
of four more lots as previously recommended on Franklin Street.
A discussion of over two hours was entered into. Alderman Black presented empirical
evidence apparently demonstrating no urgent need for additional off-street parking.
This presentation was most vigorously denied by the chamber members present. Follo-
wing this exacting and thorough discussion Alderman Alrick moved that the City call
bids for $1009000 revenue bonds, at a date and time construed by the City Attorney
as legal and proper, payable from revenues of the off-street meters. Alderman Peterson
seconded the motion and upon being put to vote the following voted "Aye", Mayor Kost.,
Alderman Alrick and Peterson. The following voted "Nay"; Alderman Black, Alderman Linder..
abstaining. The motion was declared passed.

indebtedness and develop four lots as requested. This was seconded by Alderman Peterson.

Post Office, and because of -the similarity of conclusions of the City's study and
census summary of the numbers of dwelling units within the City that little concrete
pro6f of error could be offered to induce a recount in the City of Hutchinson.
