Steve Cook — Council Member Cook spoke about parking permits at the high school. Cook agrees with
what has been done to address the complaints that have come in. Cook invited Allen Benusa, 425 Kay
Street, to speak. Benusa explained parking on Kay Street was never a problem before construction at the
high school and hopes the parking issue will resolve without the No Parking signs. Cook expressed his
wishes to keep the parking and the signs the way it is now and see how next year plays out. Cook stated
other streets could petition to have signs removed. Cook also commented the $50.00 high school
parking fee is reasonable compared to other towns. Cook spoke of the removal of ash trees from
Northwoods Park as he was surprised they were all gone. Cook was hoping some of the larger trees
would have been left for shade until the smaller trees grew. Cook also commented on the storm water
pond near the pedestrian bridge behind Shopko. Cook was disappointed the brush along the banks was
clear-cut as opposed to just a trimming.
Chad Czmowski — Council Member Czmowski wished everyone Happy Holidays.
Mary Christensen — Council Member Christensen wished everyone Happy Holidays and Happy New
Year. Christensen also made mention of this being Council Member John Lofdahl's last Council
meeting. She shared they have not always agreed on issues, but maintained a good relationship and
wished him well.
John Lofdahl — Council Member Lofdahl thanked everyone and said it was a privilege to serve on the
City Council. Lofdahl also announced there was a significant donation made to the McLeod County
Historical Society & Museum. The donation will be used for an addition that will start in Spring 2019.
The new space will allow for rearranging and "beefing up" the gallery. The museum was built in 1984.
Recently new windows were installed and the HVAC upgrade should be completed in January.
Gary Forcier — Mayor Forcier wished Council Member John Lofdahl well and thanked him for his
service to the City of Hutchinson as well as his service in the Navy.

Snow Removal Operations
City of Hutchinson
This presentation is meant to give a brief overview of snow removal operations
in the City of Hutchinson.
SNOW & ICE POLICY
NOT in the snow removal business
ARE in the transportation business
City's goal is to provide reasonable
service that allows travel:
" Emergency
1K Commercial
" Personal
The Snow & Ice Policy is designed to create the necessary authority, personnel,
equipment and priority assignments for City personnel to provide necessary
services to get streets & roadways in a reasonably safe condition after weather
events. The goal is to support emergency, commercial and personal
transportation within the City. We are in the transportation business, not the
snow removal business.

Initiating Operations
Weather monitoring
Mn/DOT Roadway Weather Information
System (RW IS)
Websites (NOAA, AccuWeather, etc.)
Television, radio and other media
Look out the window O
City staff use a variety of weather monitoring systems. Current and predicted
weather play a key role in the decision -making process whether to initiate snow
operations and what type of operation to use. There are a host of tools used to
monitor weather. Mn/DOT has weather tools that seem to be very reliable. We
use other media to `check' what we're seeing on Mn/DOT's sites.
Decisions to initiate snow removal and ice control services are made based on
actual conditions, not predicted conditions. I think all of us know that while
weather forecasting is helpful, it is not 100% reliable. With all of these high-tech
tools, the most reliable system remains just getting up early in the morning and
looking out the window.
Once a decision has been made regarding a planned response, personnel are
notified. Whenever possible, operations are planned to avoid overtime
situations. After staff has been notified, the Police Department is notified.

Snow Emergency
City Code § 72.15
DECLARATION OF SNOW EMERGENCY; PARKING PROHIBITED.
(A) The City Administrator or other designated official may declare a snow emergency in the
city. The emergency shall be declared by 4:00 p.m. and shall take effect later that same evening at
12:00 midnight. The snow emergency shall continue to be in effectfor24 hours.
(B) Notice of the declaration of snow emergency shall be given by notifying the local news
media; however the notification shall be a service right only and not a duty on the part of city
officials.
(C) During a declared snow emergency, no motor vehicle shall be parked on any street or
alleyway in the city between the hours of midnight and 7:00 a.m. except as otherwise posted
(D) During a declared snow emergency, any police officer is authorized to have a motor vehicle
which is parked in violation of this section removed at the owners' expense.
(Ord. 09-0536, passed 12-22-09)
Keeping cars off the streets during snow events has a double benefit. First,
operations are much safer, and second, a better job of plowing gets done.
Everyone benefits. Over the years we've had some families become quite
creative in how they keep their cars off the street during snow events. Their
efforts are much appreciated.
Since 2010, there has been a snow emergency ordinance in place. Some
years, snow emergencies have been used frequently, and in other years, there
hasn't been a need to call an emergency all winter long.
Generally, snow emergencies aren't called unless there is at least 4" of snow.
They have also been called for high wind or significant icing conditions.
The City's ordinance restricts on -street parking from midnight to 7:00 a.m.
following declaration of a snow emergency. Motor vehicles parked in violation of
the ordinance may be towed at the owner's expense.
4
Snow Emergency
Generally by noon, but for sure prior to 4:00 p m each day, a decision will be made as to whether
notification of a snow emergency is necessary_ If weather conditions warrant, notification is made to:
Snow emergency line (320) 234 5699
KDUZ/KARP HCVN Cable Channel 7 & 10
Hutchinson Leader Website City notification system (sign up on web site)
Designated City staff Personnel involved in snow removal
Updating a message on a dedicated telephone message line
Updating/initiating any other current or future notification systems that may be implemented
Parking restrictions begin at 12:00 a m and are in effect until 7:00 a m that morning. ft may be necessary
to initiate successive snow emergencies Each time a snow emergency is declared, the 7-hour parking
restrictions begin again
Existing posted parking regulations continue to be enforced
Issues identified by City staff engaged in snow removal operations are reported to the senior Public Works
employee, who coordinates with the Police Department
The intent is to use the notification procedure judiciously, taking into account weather conditions,
precipitation type/accumulation, and planned maintenance activities Generally, the snow emergency will
be declared after 4° of snow, severe drifting, or the necessity to treat roadways for severe slippery
conditions
Usually well before noon, but for sure before 4:00 p.m., a decision will be made
whether to call a snow emergency.
If a snow emergency is declared, there are several ways that are used to notify
the public.
There may be a need to declare back-to-back snow emergencies. Each time,
the parking restrictions are renewed.
Snow crews and the PD work together to address any problem areas.
Typically not used until 4" of snow, severe drifting, or as necessary for treating
slippery conditions.

Snow removal isn't rocket science, because there's only two things you can do
with snow. You can move it out of the way or you can let it melt. Moving it out of
the way is the most common and effective method. Methods include shoveling,
plowing and snow blowing.
Of course when weather conditions allow, melting occurs naturally. When the
weather isn't warm enough, we add chemicals to suppress the freezing point
and help the melting process. Basically, salt, sugar and alcohol can be used to
suppress the freezing point of snow and ice. The most common freeze point
suppressant is sodium chloride (salt). Other chemicals are generally chloride -
based, but there are other products from various high -sugar content agricultural
products being used as freeze point suppressants alone or in combination with
chloride -based products.
The focus of the snow/ice control industry in the last 15 years was decidedly on
melting. The cost of purchasing and transporting chemicals has risen
dramatically over the years. Because of potential environmental affects, Public
Works staff has made a deliberate shift to focusing on mechanical means of
snow removal, deliberately reducing chemical use over time. We have begun to
see the focus on mechanical snow removal slowly making a comeback in the
US, following European road authorities who have introduced new technologies
to enhance mechanical snow removal.
n
Snow Removal Operations
Move it out of the way
We use 29 City -owned vehicles/equipment to
move snow.
Up to 8 trucks are contracted for removal
Let it melt
* Apply salt/chemicals
Allow sunshine/warm temperatures to melt
the snow
We use more than two dozen vehicles and pieces of City -owned equipment to
move snow out of the way. Snowplows, wing plows, snow pushers, and snow
blowers are used to mechanically move snow. Doing a good job of mechanically
moving snow before it gets too compacted by traffic helps both nature and
chemicals keep pavements clean.
As mentioned, we have deliberately reduced the use of chemicals over the
years, but we still use sand and/or salt to address and may pretreat specific
routes and areas of concern in order to keep streets passable.

PERSONNEL - 27 staff
Operations & Maint.
Full-time =12
Parks = 5
Water = 1
Wastewater = 1
Contract = up to 8
Everyone in Operations & Maintenance is involved in snow removal and has
assigned routes. There is currently one vacancy in Operations & Maintenance.
Every Park Maintenance operator is also involved in snow removal.
There are times when some of these employees are not used, depending upon
snow conditions. In general, personnel other than Operations & Maintenance
and Park staff are only used for heavier snow events and when snow is
removed from the downtown area.
Other departments, such as Creekside, Engineering, Water, and Wastewater,
provide emergency backup staffing for snow removal operations, and are only
used if absolutely necessary.
Up to eight trucks & drivers are contracted for snow hauling. They are available
on -call and receive an hourly rate for their truck and labor, along with an annual
retainer fee. For lighter snowfall, as few as 2 city -owned trucks are used. As
many as 8 trucks are used for heavy snow events. This flexibility is necessary in
order to get snow removal operations done before heavy traffic begins
downtown.

The trend over the last 10 years is that personnel hours for snow removal has
been dropping. The wide swings in hours reflect weather conditions, blowing
snow, and in the case of last year, short periods of very high activity, such as the
mid -April snowstorm this past spring.

Snow Removal Equipment
3 Wheel loaders 8 Snowplow Trucks
F
t~
Operations are adjusted annually and changes depend upon equipment and staffing available.
The City utilizes 3 wheel loaders. 2 are assigned to routes- 1 loader has an assigned route, but
is reassigned whenever the large snow blower is needed for removal operations- The wheel
loaders are equipped with snowplows and wing plows. Two wheel loaders are used in the
downtown area to clean streets, alleys, parking lots and facilities- The other wheel loader helps
downtown and moves out to a route serving most dead-end and cul-de-sac roads. Each of the
loaders, after having plowed their primary route, help out in other routes as needed.
8 snowplow trucks are used. 5 are assigned to primary routes and to de-icing operations.
Routes are about 15 centerline miles on each route. A 61h truck works the downtown area. A Ph
truck is used during plow -only operations and there is a spare 81h truck used when one of the
other trucks has a mechanical failure. The 8=1, truck has a very long box, so it is usually used for
tree work during the winter. It does a plow and wing so it can be used as a spare, if needed. As
trucks finish up in their own areas, they contact other drivers to see where they can help out.
All of the primary trucks are equipped with sand/salt distributors. We currently distribute about
1,300-1,400 ton of sand/salt per average season. To make the sand/salt as effective as
possible, all primary trucks also are equipped with salt brine distributors. Salt brine wets the
sand/salt s❑ it sticks to the road and 'kick starts' the salt to begin melting ice- Anti -icing
equipment may be deployed on for bridges, significant grades, and priority routes.
10
Snow Removal Equipment
5 Light Trucks with snowplows 2-8 Dump Trucks for Snow Hauling
Light trucks are an important part of the fleet, because they provide snow
removal services to alleys and various public facilities. 2 of these trucks are
assigned to routes, and the other 4 are used whenever and wherever they are
needed to help out.
When addressing light snow removal needs, the City has two heavy tandem -
axle dump trucks that are used to haul snow. Up to 8 contracted trucks are also
used to haul snow during heavy events. Primary snow storage sites are located
at the National Guard Armory and at the Bass Pond in the downtown area.

2 skid steer loaders are used in the downtown area to clean sidewalks along
streets and public facilities in the downtown area. A 3rd skid steer is used at
school properties, a 4t" at the Cemetery, and the 5th skid steer loader assists
with airport and downtown snow removal operations.
2 tractors are used in the downtown area for parking lots & alleys, 1 tractor is
used at the airport & 1 tractor is used at school facilities and for sidewalk/trail
maintenance.
When necessary, tractors with either plows or snow blowers are available to be
used in other areas.

The trend over the last 10 years is that fuel consumption for snow removal has
been dropping. The wide swings again reflect weather conditions,. Other
factors affecting fuel consumption include fuel efficiency of newer
vehicles/equipment and improved fuel additives.
13
Sidewalks & trails in the downtown routes are plowed concurrently with street
snow removal.
Priority 1 sidewalk/trail routes are typically able to be plowed concurrently with
other operations, but, when necessary, may be completed on a subsequent day.
Priority 2 routes, more often than not, can be plowed concurrently, but may often
require some cleanup work on a subsequent day.
Priority 3 routes, may be started concurrently for light snow events, but more
often aren't plowed until a subsequent day. During heavy snow events, it may
take a couple of days to get to these routes.
This is a priority route system that starts over if there is new snowfall. New
snowfalls resets this priority system
14
Sidewalk Snow Removal
Adjacent property owner primarily
responsible (4' width)
City may, at its discretion, provide some
snow removal services on identified
sidewalks & trails.
Sidewalks not cleaned will be cleaned by
City and property owners will be billed.
Generally, adjacent property owners are responsible for keeping 4' of the
sidewalk clear for travel.
Some sidewalks/trails are maintained by the City on a 4-tier priority basis,
provided personnel & equipment are available. Each time it snows, the priority
system starts over. It is possible to get through priority 1 and 2 sidewalks/trails
and have to start over because it snowed again. In those cases, priority 3 and 4
sidewalks & trails may remain unplowed for a few days. While Park
Maintenance operators typically plow sidewalks and trails, Public Works
operators will help out whenever needed.
Engineering personnel inspect private sidewalks following snow events.
Property owners in violation are notified, and if sidewalks aren't cleaned in a
timely manner, the City can initiate the work using a contractor and bill the
property owner.

SIG=S:NLY
NO PARKING
• Clean overnight parking areas as opportunity presents.
UMILSIGNS
RENtovl:o
• People In overnight stalls usually can move their vehicles to clean stalls.
• This allows cleanup without imposing parking restrictions.
• People using overnlght parking are encouraged to park in clean stalls, whenever
possible.
• After heavy snow, it is necessary to clean overnight parking areas.
• "No Parking Until Signs Removed — Parking Permitted Elsewhere In Lot" signs are temporarily posted over
existing signs. The temporary signs are larger and a different color.
• Temporary signs are posted before 9:00 a.m.
• The following morning, usually between 2 a.m. and 5 a.m., overnight areas are cleaned.
• During the time of overnight cleanup, vehicles are allowed to park elsewhere In the parking lot to facilitate
cleanup. This Is a temporary condition only during the time it takes to clean up.
• Temporary signs are removed once the overnight parking areas are clean.
• Vehicles parked in temporarily signed overnight areas are in violation of the ordinance and are
subject to being towed.
0 Once cleanup is done, cars must return to the designated overnight parking area.
Whenever possible, overnight parking stalls are cleaned out as opportunity
presents. When we do that, most people move to the cleared stalls, allowing us
to come back to clean up remaining areas. This is preferred, because we don't
have to post signs and impose additional parking restrictions. Inevitably, there
will come a time when overnight stalls have to be cleaned. Temporary signs are
then placed and the PD is notified. Work begins the following morning.
Whenever temporary signs are in place, vehicles can be parked elsewhere
within the same lot. Once the overnight parking stalls are cleaned, the signs are
removed and PD is notified the work is complete. After cleaning, cars can again
only park in designated overnight parking areas.
Before work begins, an inventory of cars parked in violation of the ordinance is
made and provided to the PD. PD can usually contact the owner to have the car
moved, or if necessary, have the car towed to allow work to be completed.
Once work is done, the temporary signs are removed. The following night, cars
must again be parked in the clean overnight parking stalls and may not park
elsewhere in the lot.

Snow Disposal Site
Public site north of Armory, located at
Adams St SE
1200
No services from the City. Users responsible for
maintaining piles
Other City sites are not to be used by private
parties.
City site at Bass Pond on Adams St NE
The public snow disposal site is the area north of the Park Maint shop &
National Guard Armory. Both the City and private parties use this site. It's
necessary to work together to maximize the capacity of the site. The City does
not supply ongoing maintenance of snow piles, so private parties need to
maintain the snow they dump. This is the only City site available for use by
private parties. The primary City snow disposal site is the bass pond.
Whenever possible, this site is maintained in a manner that allows the most
possible snow to be stored, since this is the closest haul for downtown snow
removal. Private parties aren't allowed to use the bass pond.
During periods of heavy accumulation of snow over a long period of time, it may
be necessary to establish other snow disposal sites. Every effort is made to
utilize existing public property that is easily accessible and will provide for
treatment of snowmelt in the spring.
I VA
Snow Removal on Private Property
Violation of statutes and ordinances for
private parties to move snow from
private property onto or across public
roadways.
Violators subject to consequences of the
statutes/ordinances.
Plowing, blowing, or moving snow onto or across public roadways violates State
Statutes and local ordinances. Violators are notified and may be charged for
cleaning up, if necessary. If the practice does not stop, violators are subject to
the consequences identified in statutes and ordinances.
�3
Private Snow Removal Contractors
Private property owners responsible for
communicating with contractors
Activities are considered as permitted
Violations of statutes/ordinances may
result in privileges being suspended by
City Council.
City staff will contact property owners if there are any issues with snow removal
activities. The City ordinances require that private snow removal contractors be
permitted. Several years ago, the decision was made to consider all private
snow removal contractors as being permitted by the City. The property owners
are responsible for communicating with their contractors to address any issues.
Because of this, if private snow removal contractors violate statutes or
ordinances, their privilege to conduct business within the City may be
suspended.
19
Damage to Private Property
Snow removal can cause damage, even with
the best care
City will consider responsibility for damage
caused by physical contact with plows
Maximum reimbursement for mailbox = $275
_ Public Works and/or Police may investigate
Even with the best care and caution, property may be damaged by snow
removal operations. It is the City's policy to address damages caused by actual
contact with a plow. The most common item damaged is mailboxes.
Considering the variety of mailboxes used by property owners, the City has set a
maximum reimbursement for mailbox damage at $275. Whenever possible
Public Works staff or Police officers will investigate to determine the nature of
damages reported.
Snow coming off the moldboard of the snowplow that causes damage to
mailboxes is property owner's responsibility, but if the snowplow actually strikes
the mailbox, the City will work with the property owner to get the mailbox
replaced. It may be necessary, depending upon weather conditions, to install a
temporary mailbox until weather conditions become conducive to making
repairs.
Services to Private Property
Services to private property provided
when:
When responding to an emergency services
call
Property owner consent when service directly
benefits other City operations
Generally, City snow removal operations will not be provided on privately owned
property. Snow removal may take place on privately owned property when an
emergency response is necessary (Police, Fire, Ambulance, Gas leak/Electric,
water/sewer services, etc.). There may be some rare cases where it is
beneficial to City operations to extend operations onto private property, but that
will only be done with the property owner's consent.

BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM:
With the 2019 Legislative session right around the corner, and as we did last year, I would like the City Council to
consider adopting a set of legislative priorities for the upcoming year. As I noted last year, this would be a document
that we would use to communicate our legislative concerns/issues both to the public, and to our local legislators, and
could be a document to use when you make your trips to the State Capitol.
Included in your packet is a copy of our legislative priorities from last year. Many of those could be carried over to this
year as well. In fact, I'm not sure if we had any of our issues addressed during last year's session. I've also included a
sheet with some additional staff recommendations, along with a copy of the legislative priorities of a couple of
associations we are involved with (Police Chief, CGMC, and LMC). I'm looking for direction from the Council on what
you would like to see set aside as legislative priorities for 2019. With that being said, this is really a document the City
Council should be comfortable with. My goal would be to bring this back at our next meeting or at the first meeting in
February for an official approval.

2018 Legislative Priorities
The City of Hutchinson has identified the following legislative priorities for 2018. The City
generally supports the platforms of the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities and the League of
Minnesota Cities and these policies are not generally re -stated here except where they have
unusual relevance or purpose for the City of Hutchinson.
To better assist our State legislative leaders, we have identified certain legislative priorities and
general policy statements that are of specific impact and interest to the residents and business
community of Hutchinson. These legislative priorities are intended to advocate on behalf of the
City in a responsible manner that strengthens the partnership between our City and the State and
brings forth our vision of an involved, progressive and innovative community that promotes our
regional prominence while preserving our hometown character and delivering quality, cost-
effective services.
L GENERAL GOVERNMENT
A. Local Control. 2017 was an unprecedented year with the State Legislature proposing
several bills that attempted to eliminate or weaken local control. The City opposes any
legislation that erodes local decision making and control, and believes that decision -
making happens best at the local level.
B. Deputy Registrars. In 2017, with the State's conversion to their new MNLARS program,
the State shifted substantial clerical and auditing responsibilities onto the deputy registrar
network, which includes Hutchinson. This shift includes no funding from the State of
Minnesota, despite the fact that the State receives over $1 billion annually in state fees
and taxes collected through the deputy registrar network. The City of Hutchinson
supports any legislation that provides deputy registrars with proper compensation by
reallocating from existing state fee structures or other appropriate filing fee adjustments
to ensure the valued service and continued presence in remains in Hutchinson to serve
our citizens.
C. Local Government Aid. The City of Hutchinson supports increased funding to the Local
Government Aid program. We also support the current formula, unless any proposed
formula change is agreed upon by all city organizations. On top of that, we oppose
artificial, non -formula based limits on aid to individual or groups of cities.
D. Airport Legislation. The City of Hutchinson supports legislation that clearly indicates
maintenance and operation of an airport is deemed an essential public service; clarifies
when state airport funds can be used for airport planning; allows for the approval of
obstructions, without variance, if FAA analysis deems the obstruction non -hazardous;
and updates to Airport zoning that deal with boundary limits, the integration of airport
zoning with local planning/zoning, allows for flexibility to enact airport zoning, and
aligns the process with the municipal planning process requirements.
E. Health. The City of Hutchinson supports changing the state law so the minimum age to
purchase tobacco products would be increased to age 21.
II. TRANSPORTATION
A. Highway. The City of Hutchinson strongly supports the inclusion of funding from
the Corridors of Commerce program to support the $110 million of needed improvements
that will complete the highway to continuous four -lane highway to Norwood Young
America and that any maps or lists of Corridors of Commerce highways include US
Highway 212.
B. Hi _ way 15. The City of Hutchinson supports any legislation that provides for additional
funding to make improvements to Highway 15 between Interstate 90 and 94.
C. Transportation Funding. The City of Hutchinson supports a comprehensive transportation
plan with appropriate long-term funding. We also support funding for Corridors of
Commerce and city streets independent of a comprehensive transportation package. In
regards to the Corridors of Commerce, we support the current 50-50 split between
Greater Minnesota and the metro area, and we reject a scoring system that allows more
points for corridors that run through the metro area over those that connect Greater
Minnesota cities.
III. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
A. Increased Funding. The City of Hutchinson supports increased funding for state programs
to assist local economic development such as the Greater MN Business Development
Infrastructure (BDPI) grant program, MN Investment Fund, Job Creation Fund,
Redevelopment Grant Program, Demolition Loan Program, and greater MN workforce
housing and child care programs.
IV. PARK AND RECREATION
A. Dakota Rail Trail. The City of Hutchinson supports any legislation that provides funding
to fully construct the remaining Dakota Rail Trail from eastern McLeod County to the

2019 LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
(Staff Ideas for Consideration)
Environment

supports any legislation that provides funding to make improvements to the water quality,
habitat, and recreation possibilities of Hutchinson's lakes and river basins both within
and surrounding the community.
General Government
Controlling the Sale of Strong Beer, Spirits and Wine. The City of Hutchinson opposes
any legislation that would make it easier for the sale of strong beer, spirits, and wine in
grocery and convenience stores. The City of Hutchinson supports existing regulations
controlling the sale of alcohol to minimize the risks associated with you access to
alcohol, and believes allowing the sale of strong beer, spirits and wine in grocery and
convenience stores could increase the public health risk of youth access to alcohol and
alcohol -related motor vehicle accidents among youth.

provide a pilot matching grant program to provide modern equipment for High School
Career & Technical Education departments.

high school Counselors can help point students in the right direction and thus have a
meaningful impact on the skilled workforce shortage.

Dedicated to a Strong Greater Minnesota
CGMC Priorities — 2019 Legislative Session
With a newly elected governor and a new Legislature tasked with crafting the next state
budget, it's time to ramp up efforts to advance Greater Minnesota priorities. The priorities
noted below are the items the Legislature absolutely needs to address this session to secure a
bright future for Greater Minnesota communities.
• Support an LGA Increase and On-goinci Inflation Adiustment
✓ $30.5 million increase in appropriation
✓ Ongoing adjustment for inflation and population growth
• Invest in Minnesota's infrastructure
✓ $128 million for clean water infrastructure grant and loan programs
✓ $20 million for the Greater MN Business Development Public Infrastructure
(BDPI) Grant Program to support job growth in Greater Minnesota
Prioritize Clean Water Investments That Yield Results
✓ Promote innovative/alternative solutions —that go beyond expensive plant
upgrades —to solve water quality problems
✓ Facilitate statewide variance procedure for sulfates, chloride and other salty
parameters
• Fund Transportation
✓ Support a comprehensive funding package that includes new revenues
✓ $200 million for Corridors of Commerce funded with a new revenue source
✓ $50 million for city streets of all sizes ($25 million for cities with fewer than 5,000
residents and $25 million for cities with more than 5,000 residents)
• Address Greater Minnesota's Child Care Shortage
✓ $10 million for child care facility capital assistance program
✓ Assistance for employers that provide child care or child care benefits to their
employees
✓ Encourage efforts to create supportive and collaborative regulatory and
enforcement regime versus one that is punitive and discourages providers
Criminal Background Checks — Please support preventing individuals who are not legally able to
purchase a gun from doing so without background checks at gun shows, online or in private
transactions.
Criminal Gang Investigative Data System — Please support amending MN Statute 299C,091 to clarify
when a legally identified gang member, who is incarcerated, is removed from the Gang Investigative
Data system. Currently, all legally identified gang members are purged from the data system three years
after the last record of a conviction or adjudication or stayed adjudication of the individual. Proposed
language would be; Unless the individual whom the data pertains to is sentenced to or adjudicated to an
adult prison or juvenile placement and the prison or juvenile placement continues to document on-
going gang criteria behavior during the placement the three-year conviction period should begin once
released.
Gun Violence Protective Orders (GVP05] -- Please support allowing law enforcement, qualified health
care practitioners, family members and intimate partners who believe an individual's dangerous
behavior has a substantial likelihood to lead to violence to request an order from a civil court
authorizing law enforcement to temporarily remove any guns in the individual's possession and to
prohibit new gun purchases for the duration of the order.
Continued Investments for Mandated law enforcement training — Please support continuing the POST
Board training reimbursement allocation to local agencies, which began in 2018, into fiscal year 2022-
2023 through the Peace Officer Training Fund for mandated training in the areas of recognizing and
valuing diversity and cultural differences, conflict management and mediation, crisis intervention and
mental Illness crises.
Immunity for Veterinarians — Please support statutory changes that would allow for veterinarians who
are mandated reporters of animal abuse to be immune from civil liability.
K-12 Threat Assessments — Please support legislation requiring school districts to establish a team of
subject matter experts to examine and address school safety issues and specific threats to the students,
staff and community_ This legislation would move our state beyond physical school safety measures,
such as infrastructure improvement grants, passed by the Legislature in 2018.
Protecting all sworn officers under MS 176.011 - Please support legislation to clarify that all sworn
officers have the same occupational hazard protections. Current law excludes sworn officers employed
by certain state agencies.
Law Enforcement Integrity Act - Please support allowing for a Minnesota Licensed Peace Officer to be
terminated from public employment without opportunity to challenge the remedy of termination
should the basis for termination be willful or intentional dishonesty, deception, or similar unethical or
illegal conduct that is deemed sufficient to imperil their credibility in court testimony. I do not support
limiting an officer's due process right to arbitration.
Update of MN Gavernment Data Practices Act —1 fully support the importance of the current Minnesota
Government Data Practices Act for accountability and transparency purposes. However, I support
legislation to update the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act to comprehensively address
technological changes in the type of sensitive data collected since the Act was first enacted in 1979.

BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM:
Council member Cook has asked that this item be placed on the agenda for discussion purposes by the City Council.
Council member Cook has noted that with the school project, tiger path and the aquatic center being completed, along
with the workforce needs and expanding rental housing availability, now would be a good time to start working on a
marketing campaign for the City.
The idea would be to target an audience of families and potential workforce employees that touts our quality of life, job
opportunities, quality education, proximity to the Twin Cities, etc. Potentially this could be a series of ads highlighting
different aspects. Venues might include MPR, billboards, etc. and would include an outreach around the state and
potentially in the upper Midwest.
If this is a route the Council would like to pursue, I would recommend that we put together an RFP to send out to
marketing firms. The RFP would give us an opportunity to what the possibilities are, along with the potential costs. I
don't believe we have the in-house staff who could take on this endeavor.

AIRPORT HANGAR RENTAL POLICY
The City of Hutchinson is responsible for management, operations, maintenance and repair of
Hutchinson Municipal Airport — Ken Butler Field. The City of Hutchinson has constructed, at Federal,
State and City expense, a series of aircraft storage hangars that are available for rent to store aircraft.
There are not sufficient hangars to accommodate all who wish to rent hangars. Therefore, the City
desires to establish a policy governing the offering of available hangars for rent to interested parties.
To assist with management of the Airport, the City has established an Airport Commission and the City
Council has delegated the duties and responsibilities outlined in this policy to the Airport Commission.
When the Airport Commission is unable to perform described duties and responsibilities, the duties and
responsibilities revert to the City Council.
Disclaimer. This policy describes intended procedures for offering available hangar space for rent.
The City Council and/or Airport Commission may deviate from this policy at any time to offer available
hangar space in a manner deemed most beneficial to the Airport or City. Rental agreements for
available hangar space are made only by the Airport Commission. Rental agreements are valid only
after having been approved by the Airport Commission. The City Council retains final authority on any
matter relating to this policy.
Special Use Hangars. The City may designate certain hangars for special use when occupants of the
hangars provide a public service. Generally, these hangars are either not charged rent or are charged
reduced rent. Occupants of special use hangars are not eligible to accept any other available hangar
space without approval from the Airport Commission and they must then enter into a rental agreement
and pay full rental rates for the second hangar. Vacated special use hangars will become available to
others at normal rental rates.
Available Hangar Space. Hangar space usually becomes available when an existing hangar occupant
voluntarily terminates their rental agreement with the City. Available hangar space can also result from
eviction of an existing occupant, either for non-compliance with the rental agreement or by other action
of the City deemed to be in the best interest of the Airport or City.
All available hangar space will be reported to the Airport Manager. Written notice of and
advertisements for available hangar space will be posted in a prominent place or places at the Airport.
Available hangar space will be first offered to existing hangar occupants, then to persons or entities on
the waiting list, and finally to the general public.
The Airport Manager may use unrented hangars for any municipal purpose or may offer any unrented
hangars, on a short-term rental basis (daily or weekly) from the time the unrented hangar is vacated
until it is rented by another occupant.
Large aircraft. An - occupant who owns a large aircraft, after being approved for rental of
hangar space for large aircraft by the Commission, will be assigned a priority by the Commission. The
Commission may offer a large hangar to an occupant with a large aircraft by providing any existing
occupant of a large hangar owning smaller aircraft with appropriate space in smaller hangar(s), in lieu of
the large hangar. As necessary, existing occupants may be required to vacate an occupied _
hangar to accommodate, which shall be based upon the occupant's priority date. Any existing occupant
required to move will retain their original priority date for their newly occupied
hangar(s).
Accessibility. The airport has designated hangars #4-4 and #4-8 as accessible hangars. These hangars
are accessible through aside entrance door into the respective storage areas
. The Commission may offer an accessible hangar to an occupant with accessibility
needs, by providing any existing occupant of an accessible hangar with appropriate space in _
other hangar(s), in lieu of the accessible hangar. As necessary, existing occupants may be required to
vacate an occupied _ hangar to accommodate, which shall be based upon the occupant's priority
date. Any existing occupant required to move will retain their original priority date
for their newly occupied _ hangar(s).
Existing Hangar Occupants. No occupant may rent more than two hangars without permission from
the Airport Commission. Specific authorization granted by the Airport Commission for more than two
hangars may not exceed one year[EkAll such cases will be reviewed together once each calendar
year.
Existing hangar occupants shall have first priority to rent available hangar space. Upon posting notice of
a vacancy, existing hangar occupants will have until the date specified on the notice to make application
to rent the available hangar. The Airport Commission will review all applications for available hangar
space at their next regularly scheduled meeting or at an advertised meeting open to the public.
Advertisements for available hangars will be posted on the Airport's bulletin board and other
conspicuous places at the airport.
Should more than one existing hangar occupant make application to rent the same available hangar
space, priority will be given to the existing occupant with the longest rental relationship with the
Airport. If longevity prioritization is unable to be determined, the Airport Commission will determine an
appropriate manner for selection, considering the best interest of the Airport.
Upon selection for the available hangar, existing hangar occupants must sign a rental agreement and
provide all necessary documentation. The occupant must prepay one month rental rate for the new
hangar before vacating their existing hangar. If prepayment is not made within two (2) weeks, the
hangar will again be considered vacant. Occupants will have no more than two (2) weeks to move out of
their existing hangar into the new hangar.
Transfer of aircraft ownership. The Commission may approve hangar rental agreements with new
occupants in the case of a transfer of ownership of existing aircraft stored in City -owned hangars.
Both parties to the transaction shall make application to the Commission for approval. Appropriate
documentation of the transfer shall accompany any application, to include a certificate of insurance
showing coverage of at least amounts required by the rental agreement.
The Commission may approve a rental agreement with the new occupant. If the Commission approves a
rental agreement with the new occupant, the priority date for the new occupant shall be the same date
as the Commission approved the new rental agreement.
No Application from Existing Hangar Occupants. If no existing hangar occupant makes application to
rent the available hangar space, the hangar is then considered to be available to persons or entities
whose names appear on the hangar waiting list maintained by the City.
Waiting List. The City maintains a waiting list for - potential hangar occupants. It is the City's
intent to use the waiting list to determine eligibility for available hangar space. The City reserves the
right to establish procedures other than those described herein they deem necessary and beneficial to
Airport operations.
Potential occupants on the waiting list may be individuals, corporations, flying clubs, non-
profit organizations, and entities other than private individuals.
Names are added to the waiting list when - potential occupants notify the City of Hutchinson of
their desire to be placed on a waiting list for an available hangar, provide contact information and other
required information, as established by the City
Names are removed from the waiting list once - potential occupants rent a hangar. Names are
removed from the list when - potential occupants voluntarily withdraw their names. Names
are removed - after a potential occupant refuses to rent a hangar three consecutive
times. Names may also be removed by action of the City Council for any reason deemed to be in the
best interest of the Airport or the City.
Existing hangar occupants with one hangar are eligible to be on the waiting list. Upon renting a hangar,
occupants desiring a second hangar may ,apply to be on the waiting list. -
-tTheir name will be listed on the waiting list by the date of their Mapplication, not the
original date of their first rental agreement. Once an occupant M rents two hangars, they are ineligible
to be on the waiting list.
Waiting List Prioritization. Applicants are listed on the waiting list in ascending order by the date on
which their application was = received by the City. Priority for available hangars is generally given
to the person/entity whose name has been on Ithe waiting list for the longest time.

space, the hangar is then considered to be available to the public.
Offering Available Hangar Space to the Public. The Airport Manager will advertise the available hangar
to the general public in any manner deemed reasonable. The Airport Manager may offer the hangar to
any person or entity able to comply with rental agreement provisions. The Airport Commission may
authorize an incentive reduction to rental rates for the available hangar, provided the rental rate does
not drop below seventy-five percent (75%) of the existing rental rates for comparable hangar space and
provided the offer does not last more than one year.

hangar space. Applications shall indicate agreement by both parties. The Airport Commission retains
the authority to allow or deny hangar trades, based on the Airport Commission's consideration of issues
surrounding the proposed trade.

BACKGROUND/EXPLANATION OFAGENDA ITEM:
Street sweeping is the first and best defense for protecting local waterways. Effective street sweeping results in lower
long-term maintenance costs. Removal of pollutants from streets is significantly less expensive than removing them
from pipes, ponds and structures. Sweeping is important for: 1) water quality protection; 2) environmental
stewardship; 3) vehicle/pedestrian safety; and 4) community aesthetics.
Street sweepers encounter the worst conditions of any municipal machine. Salt, abrasive aggregates and oddly sized
and shaped materials cause wear and damage on an ongoing basis.
The City's sweeping fleet consists of a 2011 Challenger mechanical sweeper and a 2003 VacAll vacuum sweeper.
Both kinds of sweepers have their role in keeping streets clean. The primary sweeper is the mechanical sweeper.
The vacuum sweeper is used for light, organic materials in the summer and for leaves toward the end of the
Residential Leaf Vacuum service period.
Public Works staff reviewed six different street sweepers, recommending consideration of a larger, more expensive
street sweeper model, if it were financially feasible. However, understanding the City is in the midst of a large storm
water project and considering potential future storm water needs, the decision was made to proceed with the smaller,
less expensive sweeper. The Elgin Broom Badger is a direct replacement of the Challenger sweeper. Since 2011,
Elgin acquired Challenger, made several improvements to the machine, and now market the machine as the Broom
Badger.
2019 Elgin Broom Badger mechanical street sweeper: $193,062.50
Less trade-in: 2011 Challenger street sweeper: -$ 18,534.00
Total: $174,528.50
The Finance Department will provide a description of how the sweeper will be funded.

VI. Consider Application Fee for Tax Increment Financing
Staff reported on their survey of other communities to see if they were charging a fee to the
developer for Tax Increment Financing projects and what those fees were:
St. Cloud
$15,000
Elk River
$10,000
North St. Paul
$5,000
Fergus Falls
$9,000
Coon Rapids
$12,000
Monticello
$10,000
Key points raised in the discussion:
■ Purpose of the fee would be to cover consultant and other costs incurred to develop
the TIF plan and establish the TIF District.
■ To date, the City's practice was to incur these costs and then be reimbursed later out
of tax increment generated by the district.
■ This created some risk if, for whatever reason, the project did not move ahead.
■ Under the new policy, developers will pay the fee and get reimbursed plus interest if
the project moves forward. The developer will incur the risk.
■ Staff found it was fairly typical that city's charged a fee.
■ More than one of the cities listed indicated that they had to increase their fee amount.
■ Any unused fee amount would be refunded to the developer once the TIF District was
established.
■ Staff will develop a short TIF application form.
The Finance Team has reviewed the proposal and are recommending the adoption of a
$15,000 TIF application fee.
M/S/P: Block, Vanderheiden to recommend to the City Council that they implement a TIF
Application fee of $15,000. Passed unanimously.
VII. EDA Strategic Planning
Discussion on formulating Mission, Vision & Values Statements for the EDA. To be

a. Approve Non -Waiver of Tort Liability Limits for General Liability
Mr. Martig presented the requirement by League of Minnesota Cities Insurance
Trust. Staff is recommending to not waive the tort liability limits. If HUC does
waive this, then HUC must purchase excess liability coverage. In the past,
HUC has not waived the municipal tort limit.
After discussion, a motion by Commissioner Martinez, second by
Commissioner Cheney to Approve Non -Waiver of Tort Liability Limits for
General Liability. Motion carried unanimously.
b. Discuss Date for Performance Review of Hutchinson Utilities General
Manager.
President Morrow recognized Brenda Ewing, Human Resources Director. Ms.
Ewing discussed the Performance Review of Hutchinson Utilities General
Manager, Per General Manager's contract with Utilities, an annual
Performance Review is to be conducted. Generally, this has occurred in
December at the scheduled Commission Meeting or a Special Meeting. It is up
to the commission on when the Performance Review should be held. GM
Carter would have the opportunity to decide if it would be an open or closed
session. When the date is decided, review forms will be sent to all the
Commissioners. GM Carter is reviewed in multiple different areas, including
Organizational Management, Fiscal Management, Program Development,
Relationship and Communication with the Commission, Long Range Planning
and Relationship with Public and Outside Organizations. After Commissioners
have completed and returned review forms, all results will be compiled for
discussion at the review.
President Morrow asked GM Carter and the Commissioners to have the review
at the December 19, 2018 Commission Meeting, GM Carter and
Commissioners agreed to the date.
c. Discussion of re -appointment of Don Martinez
GM Carter spoke of the re -appointment of Don Martinez. GM Carter along with
Mr. Sebora, review annually what board members and officer positions need re-
appointment. At the end of 2018, Commissioner Martinez's position is up for
re -appointment. Commissioner Martinez was filling in for a previous term that
was held by Donna Luring. The process HUC goes through is to see if the
candidate wants to be re -appointed and stay on, if so the information is given to
the Mayor and City Administrator of the City of Hutchinson. It would be
recommended that HUC would like to re -appoint Commissioner Martinez to a
first full year five term. Commissioner Martinez is willing to stay on and be re-
appointed.
Commissioner Martinez concurred. All Commissioners agreed with re-
3
appointment of Commissioner Martinez.
d. Formal Action -Discussion of EDA Incubator Building Covered Utility Services,
President Morrow recapped the EDA Discussion from the previous meeting on
November 9, 2018. Today the Commissioners will be putting it to vote on
whether to cover the utility services of the EDA Incubator Building
Commissioner Hanson inquired if the Commissioners are to discuss if there is
support, if some language should be created with some starts and stops.
President Morrow stated that a direction would be made one way or the other.
Bringing it to a motion and voting 'yay' or 'nay'. If Commissioners want to
discuss before it is brought to a formal vote that may be something that can be
entertained. President Morrow recognized Mr. Sebora, and inquired if that is
something that can be entertained.
Mr. Sebora stated it could be played out either way. The Commissioners have
had the time to think about this topic, discussions have been made and now it
is time to move forward with the motion or not. If the Commission does want
to move forward, direction needs to be given to GM Carter and myself so
something can be drafted, otherwise if the Commission wants to set a dollar
amount that is something that can be voted on as a motion as well. There are
many options that the Commission have talked about in the past; does the
Commission want the amount to be an annual amount, should something be
written as part of a policy, should the by-laws be amended, is EDA going to be
the only group that is entitled to that contribution. On the other side, this is
new territory; does HUC want to enter into this. HUC may receive other
requests from other bodies. Either way a decision needs to be made today.
After more discussion, Commissioner Hanson made a motion, second by
Commissioner Cheney for GM Carter and Attorney Marc Sebora to move
forward and create language on a policy to consider the EDA's financial
request with certain starts and stops that follow State Statute. Motion was not
carried unanimously.
President Morrow asked for a roll call vote.
Commissioner Hanson — yay
Commissioner Wendorff- nay
President Morrow — nay
Commissioner Martinez — nay
Commissioner Cheney — yay
Vote was 3 nay — 2 yay-
President Morrow thanked the Commission and Staff for the great discussion,
Commissioner WendorFf pointed out that this does not show HUC as not
4
supporting the EDA, EDA is a good program.
Commissioner Cheney added if down the road EDA comes back with different
language, that HUC and the Commission should keep an open mind for
further discussion.
9. Adjourn
There being no further business, a motion by Commissioner Cheney, second by
Commissioner Wendorff to adjourn the meeting at 3:39p.m. Motion carried
unanimously.
