election listed in the City Charter and proposed to change it to 10% of the last
State election.
Sebora stated that the City Council could not approve the form and substance
of the petition since it would not be a proper process. He referred to the State
Statute that the Council has to approve. Sebora informed Cook that the
Charter Co mmissi on is the independent body that must approve it. The City
did not have the ability to approve the petition at this time because it did not
meet the State Statutory requirements. Cook would have to talk to his
attorney regarding the issue, and the two attorneys will meet to review it
2. REQUEST FOR FORMATION OF A CHARTER COMMISSION
The City Attorney stated that Cook had contacted the League of Minnesota
Cities, and the LMC attorney had given him an opinion. He noted that
governing Charter Commissions would have to fill vacant positions, and he
did not believe there was an casting Commission.
Cook stated that the Charter Commission was supposed to meet at least once
a year. The members are given terms, and they are to be staggered.
Sebora said he would research this issue.
3. REQUEST FOR DETERMINATION OF ANY RESTRICTIONS ON USE
OF PARK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND /OR PROPERTY •
The City Attorney informed Cook that the school district would have the
records on restrictions for use of school property/facilities.
Peterson commented that the use of the school had nothing to do with the
City, and therefore, Cook would need to contact the school.
The Mayor stated that he thought there were some restrwtions on South Park
which were discovered whin the G5ry was looking m i to an outdoor sw®mg
pool. He also suggested that Cook contact the school for further information.
Mlinar thought there was no need to determine restrictions at this time.
DISCUSSION ON NEW INFORMATION REGARDING THE $1
MILLION STATE GRANT
Cook informed the Council that he had contacted the Department of Trade
and Economic Development. The Department of Finance told him there was
no end to the timeframe. He was told the bond money would have to be paid
back, and there are some possible obligations from the City regarding the use
of the grant money. Cook commented that the public purposes would apply
to the Plaza 15 property for a community center, but should there be a vote
as to what the people want.

AREA TRUNK SEWER, PHASE 1 AND 2
Rodeberg reported on a letter received from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
and their proposed schedule to complete the Environmental Assessment Worksheet
and permitting processes for the project. He stated the proposed schedule did not
ensure a project completion date and should not be used to enter into any contracts
or to set q�tryy construction commencement dates However, a recent correspondence
with the MPCA indicated that a mid -to -late August approval might be feasible, but
no contracts should be awarded until the finding of facts had been signed.
The City Engineer commented that Menards would like to have Edmonton Avenue
open by fall 2000.

of -way at a total cost of $27,000. The City Engineer requested authorization to set

(g) CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 11524 — RESOLUTION
AUTHORIZING THE ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY FOR HOSPITAL
PURPOSES
It was reported that the Hutchinson Area Health Care Board had taken action to adopt
a Resolution and approve the purchase of the Plaza 15 Shopping Center property in
the amount of $3,460,000. The purchase agreement was presented to the City
Council for approval, with the contingency that there must be a $1 million grant
match from the State of Minnesota An additional contract provision states that any
of the 13 contingencies can be waived by the buyer and still continue with the
purchase without grant funding. •
A plan will be developed and implemented to convert the entire space into public
uses over a designated period of time. The purchaser will need to confer with the
current tenants regarding the future timeframe for development and public use.
HAHC President Phil Graves reported that many of the present tenants meet the
criteria to be considered public. He was not certain if the nursing home residents
could be transferred to the Plaza 15 location.
Graves presented a fmacial report and stated that the hospital had $11 million
excess in the bank at the present time. Therefore, the Hutchinson Area Health Care
will provide the match of r the City's $1 million grant match from the State. He
noted that the Plaza 15 parking lot needed repairs, and the roof needed two- thirds of
it replaced.
Mike Ribich requested that the City Council make the purchase contingent upon
approval of the Hutchinson residents. He thought the City might be obligated to pay
back the State bond if they change the public site at a later time. Ribich inquired
what impact the purchase would have on the City's bond rating. He also wanted to
know what happened to the City's bond rating since the hospital was added to the
City. Ribich recommended to delay any action until there is a better understanding
of the issues involved. He recommended that the City determine some of the issues
before moving forward.
City Attorney Richard Schieffer addressed another contingency to the contract. He
commented that he thought Ribich was referring to an election, and it would not be
appropriate for a purchase agreement. The City Attorney also addressed the City's
bond rating and stated that no money was being borrowed for the purchase and •
renovation of Plaza 15. The State has a bonding fund, and the hospital is driving the

Mlinar made refmamce to page 12, Section 14.8 entitled Environmental Laws. He
noted that the hospital would make its own investigation to determine if there were
any chemicals that had been dumped on the Plaza 15 property. The investigation
would also cover
petroleum spills.
Motion by Mlinar, second by Peterson to approve the purchase agreement and to
adopt Resolution No. 11524. Motion unanimously carried.

problem. He informed the Council that the McLeod County Fair Board approached
the City and offered to pay some of the cost on the project. Also, Wal -Mart has
offered to provide fill for the ditch, which will save the City money on the $30,000
project.
The City Engineer stated he would proceed to advertise for bids to be opened on July
10, 2000 at 2:00 p.m. and awarded on July 11, 2000.

South Grade Road Improvements
n
U
To: City Counsel Members,
greatly exceed the benefit to our property. We urge you to reconsider this
assessment and determine a cap, which is closer in line with the benefit to the
property and not a hardship to the owners.
This memo is in regards to our objection to the proposed assessments on our
property at 1390 South Grade Road. We are a single family residence that has
been newly annexed into the city. Our lot was purchased as a rural lot, which
happens to have more frontage than a standard city lot, but can not be divided
Due to the current methods of determining assessments by the linear frontage we
are facing current proposed assessments of $20,650.00, which doesn't include the
already assessed watermain and the cost which will be incurred to hook up not to
mention the monthly usage costs. The total costs are reaching $30,000.00 for a
residence that is already self contained with its own well and septic system. This is
approx 30% of our property value. Due to this we feel the cost of the assessments

the appropriate assessment method.
• Property Owners on South side of Road also have deferred
watermain assessment:

is $31/FF

Re: Bid Recommendation
Composting Facility -Site Work & Sewer
Earth Tech Project No. 31424
Dear Mr. Plotz:
RECEIVED
JUL 1 0 2000
City of Hutchinson
Bids were received from two (2) contractors on June 27, 2000 for the referenced project, as
listed below: Telephone
_ s s 1 100
Diamond 5 Construction, Inc. $374,000.00
E& T Contracting, Inc. $380,791.75
The original Bidding Documents are on file at City Hall. We have reviewed the Bidding 6 , , . s s 1 249
Documents supplied by each contractor and forward the following findings:
• Both bidders neglected to provide information about the registered professional engineer that
will finalize the design and submit permit applications. We recommend that the City waive
this irregularity for both contractors.
LJ
The apparent low bidder, Diamond 5 Construction, provided dated references, did not list any
subcontractors, and qualified their bid, all of which dictated a detailed review of their bid. I
contacted Diamond 5 Construction on July 6 and left a message requesting a return call.
Fred Madsen returned my call promptly and we reviewed their bid materials.
The reference projects included 2 projects over the past five years and three additional
projects running from the mid- 1970's to early 1980's. None of these projects have the scope
of work required by the composting facility site work and sewer installation. Our project
includes over 100,000 cubic yards of earthwork and approximately 3,000 lineal feet of
sanitary and storm sewer pipe ranging in size from 8" diameter to 30" diameter. In my
opinion, Diamond 5 has not demonstrated, through past experience, the capability to
complete the composting project in a timely and efficient manner.
I asked Mr. Madsen if he planned to use any subcontractors on the project. He indicated that
he didn't know at this time and would make that decision after he was awarded the contract.
According to Mr. Madsen, he took quotes from 2 -3 utility contractors, but hadn't decided if
he would use any of them for the project.
E A R T H ` ) T E C H i r F
. tyro mrtrvw*w.u�,m cw.wwr
Bid Recommendation -Site Work & Piping
July 7, 2000
Page 2
Diamond 5 also qualified their bid by indicating that "Materials will be supplied by the city
of Hutchinson ". During our conversation, Mr. Madsen understood that Diamond 5 would be
providing the materials for the utilities, but indicated that the City would provide till dirt for
the project and his firm would not be hauling any material into the site. The project bidding
documents are clear in what materials are being provided by the City of Hutchinson and they
do not say, nor imply, that the City will provide all materials for the project. This bid
qualification by Diamond 5 is significant and has potential repercussions in the way of
additional project costs. Should additional fill material be required to complete the project,
the City would be exposed to additional costs if Diamond 5's bid were accepted.
We recommend that the bid from Diamond 5 Construction, Inc. be rejected for the following
reasons:
1. Lack of similar experience in scope and magnitude.
2. Qualification of bid relative to fill materials.
We have also reviewed the bid submitted by E & T Contracting, Inc. Our review indicates
that their project team has the experience and qualifications to complete this project in a
timely and efficient manner for the City of Hutchinson. We found no significant irregularities
in their bid and recommend award to E & T Construction, Inc. in the amount of $380,791.75.
Please contact our office if we can be of further assistance in this matter.
Very truly yours,
Earth Tech, Inc.

with you through a newsletter next month that will detail the exciting plans we have for
improving and expanding our services. I wanted to take this opportunity to let you ]mow
that a significant improvement is happening over the Wort few week&

WASHINGTON. DC- -0510 -2304
Dear Friends:
Over the years, your advice and
counsel has been invaluable as
we've worked to balance the fed-
eral budget, reign in our oppressive
tax code, and empower individuals.
But the struggle continues. With a
limited amount of legislative days
remaining in this session of Con-
gress, I want to take this opportu-
nity to update you on recent devel-
opments on some key issues.
Sincerely,
Election -Year Politics Threaten Budget
Breakdown and Jeopardize Action on
the People's Agenda
The past few months have primarily been occupied with
developing the budget blueprint for Fiscal Year 2001. You
may recall that over the past two years, Congress has
found itself being held over the spending barrel by
President Clinton. As the end of each fiscal year
approached, the Leadership attempted to avert a
shutdown of the federal government by agreeing to
increasingly higher spending in an omnibus catch -all bill.
Both times, I voted no. This is no way to legistate.
So ttrie year. in preparation for consideration of the 13
federal spending bills and to avoid a repeat, we began our
work early. As a member of the Senate Budget Committee,
I went about setting priorities, supporting additional tax
relief, and ensuring the Social Security surplus was fully
protected by the Grams Social Security Lockbox.
And just as things were getting underway in early May,
there was a procedural train wreck in the United States
Senate. The Minority Leader decided to block all spending
bills from proceeding until the Senate considered the
Minority's political agenda to their satisfaction.
Stalling on the people's business should not be tolerated.
But the only way to address it is head on and in the public's
view. In the coming weeks, I'll be working with my
cogeagum to get us back on track doing the work we were
sent to Washington 6o do.

United States Senator

Senator Grams takes time to
shake hands with the next generation
Presklont'Clinton's East Gasp to Create
a Legacy Is Leaving a Trait of Executive
Orders That Undermine the Congress
and the Constitution
Before leaving office, President Clinton has sent his
Cabinet off to enact, through regulation and Executive
Order, everything he is unable or unwilling to accomplish
legislatively. These recent actions have shown little regard
for the lawmaking authority granted to the Congress or the
balance of power our Founding Fathers built into our
Constitution.
Over the Memorial Day recess, I met with citizens from
across our great state. And whether it was the
snowmobilers in Grand Rapids who are being denied
access to our national parks or the small business owners
on Main Street who face potential shutdown as a result of
ergonomics rules being issued in the absence of sound
science, the agenda remains clear.
We cannot hand over our freedoms without a fight. I win be
working with my colleagues in the Congress to ensure that
this President does not ignore the legislative process and
to retake the control we've lost by reviewing government
programs and regulations as intended.
Putting the Well -being of Minnesotans
Ahead of Government Programs
Far too often, a we"tended idea becomes immortalized
into a federal feelgood program. For example, we all share
the hope of good health care for all Minnesotans. But there is
a vast difference between providing access to quality care
and the government takeover being advocated by the
Administration and certain Senators.
Most recently, the ; - lures have been drawn in the debate
over the Patients' Bin of Rights Plus (PBR +) legislation. Last
year, the Senate passed landmark legislation that will change
the way health plans do business. Currently before a House -
Senate Conference Committee, the PBR+ bill guarantees
that patients will receive the care they need, when they need
it without a government gatekeeper that ultimately restricts
choice and drives up costs.
Many of you are concerned about how the very different
House and Senate versions will be reconciled. The
Conference Committee has been working full time to iron out
differences, and my priority continues to be to ensure that the
scope and liability issue compromises don't force employers
to drop coverage for their employees. Unfortunately, it
appears that advocates for government run health care
believe this is the perfect opportunity to facilitate a full and
complete government takeover. As this process nears
completion, I'll continue my efforts to achieve a fair and
workable result that doesn't compromise the access or
quality of health care for any Minnesotans.
Seiia r Grams' Other Priorities
Social Security: Protecting America's
Investment In The Future
Saving Social Security, preserving
its integrity, and ensuring security
\ in retirement for today's senior
`�- citizens and tomorrow's retirees
is a critical concern of
Minnesotans. To offer every
individual the opportunity to
achieve wealth - and the security
it affords - in their retirement years, Congress must work
proactively and plan creatively. The experts agree that
Social Security is a fiscal time bomb that cannot survive as
we know it once the Baby Boom generation begins to
retire. The biggest risk is to do nothing at all
While politicians routinely talk about "saving Social
Security.' go 108th Congress is taking action. At the
beginning of this year, I introduced the Grams' Locktwx
(S. 2001), legislation that prevents Washington from
spending the Social Security surplus by locking in those
dollars for their intended use: security for retirees. The
Grams' lockbox triggers an automatic reduction in
government spending, including the pay of Members of
Congress, if any of the Social Security surplus is spent
returning it to the Social Security Trust Fund. As a membe •
of the Senate Budget Committee, I offered my proposal as
an amendment to the annual budget, and the Grams'
lockbox was approved by both the Senate and the House
of Representatives in April.
This was but a first step toward saving Social Security.
Some in Washington propose increasing taxes, cutting
benefits or boosting the retirement age so Social Security
can limp into the future. But retirees deserve more than just
another federal program after a lifetime of work — they
should have financial security in their non - working years.
That is why I introduced the Personal Security and
Wealth in Retirement Act (S. 1103). My legislation offers
Americans the option of participating in personal
retirement accounts, while guaranteeing minimum
retirement benefits. I have outlined this proposal in more
than 50 town hall meetings held across Minnesota in the
past year, and the response from every age group, in every
community, has been extremely enthusiastic. For more
information about my efforts to ensure retirement security
for all Americans. please visit my special "Social Security:
America's Investment in the Future" web page at: http: //
www.senate.gov /- grams/. You may also be interested in
attending an event where I will be appearing with Jose
Pinera, Chile's former Secretary of Labor and Socia'
Security, who was the architect of that country'
successful privatization of its pension system, July 6, at th
Minneal iis-St. Paul Airport Hilton at 6:30 pm.
ria0likB t ftwovi (And
Doffam) to the Peoplo
I have made cutting taxes for
Minnesota's overtaxed families
my top priority in the U.S.
Senate, and was the driving
force behind enactment of the
SM per -child tax credit. This
measure took full effect this past
year and has resulted in the
largest tax relief effort since the Reagan Administration's
tax cuts in 1982. More importantly, the $500 per child
tax credit is putting $22 billion back into the pockets of
American families each year — $500 million for
Minnesota families alone. Thanks to the $500 per -child
tax credit and several minor tax initiatives enacted over
the past five years, Congress has successfully lowered
the overall tax burden for many families.
But taxes are still far too burdensome. I worked hard
to return some of the tax overcharges to the taxpayers in
this yew's budget. This tax relief would tofak515QbWwn
over five years. It calb for relief from the marriage
penalty tax, a tax incentive for affordable education,
health care tax relief, small business tax relief, and
repeal of the Clinton /Gore fuel taxes. We will not know
until later this year, during final negotiations between
Congress and the Administration, how successful our
efforts will be to cut taxes for working Americans. Your
• participation in this debate could mean success or
failure. If you agree with me that Congress should
pass tax relief for hard - working middle -class
taxpayers, write, email, or call your Congressional
representatives and the President todayl
The tax code itself is unfair, too complicated and
unfriendly to the taxpayer. Ultimately, cutting taxes
will not fix the enormous problems inherent in our tax
system. To restore fairness, we must rip out the entire
tax code and replace it with something fair, friendly, and
easy to understand. Minnesotans should never have to
face another April 15 again, with all its forms, fears, and
frustrations. I will continue to pursue this goal.
Education: Freedom, Flexibility, and a
Local Focus Needed
The best education is a local
education, taught by caring teachers,
_ supported by involved parents. and
nurtured by local school districts
/ with the flexibility to meet local
needs. Washington needs to
understand that a student's best
friend is a book or an Internet
• connection, not a federal bureaucrat
The rdueade& Rlmrilbill* Partn.a1Np Act (it 2M is
an example of returning educational choices to the local
level. The bill, passed by both the House and Senate
and signed into law, extends into every state the power
of the 'Education Flexibility Partnership Osemonstration
Program," otherwise known as "Ed -Flex.' Ed -Flex
allows eligible local school districts to forgo the federal
red tape that consumes so many precious education
dollars. Moreover, the best way to help teachers teach is
to give them the freedom, flexibility, and resources to
get their job done without undue interference and
federal strings.
One of my major concerns whenever Congress takes up
the education debate is making sure that Minnesota
taxpayers get their money's worth. Too much of
Minnesotans' education tax dollars are consumed by
federal administrative requirements. Moreover,
Minnesotans lose over $60 million yearly because of
unfavorable distribution formulas. Consequently, among
amendments to the Elementary and secondary
Educadon Act dwt I have proposed or cosponsored is
one tlwlwoullhelp adassi this imbeanaand provide
Minnesota a better return on the federal tax doflars we
commit to the Washington bureaucracy.
Parents and teachers, not Washington bureaucrats,
have the greatest stake in the education of Minnesota
children, and we must make sure they are not stifled by
one- size - fits -all federal mandates. I will continue
working to keep more of your tax dollars in the
classrooms and keep education decisions at home.

As someone who grew up on a dairy farm. I understand the
concerns of Minnesota fanners. I have met on countless occasions
with farmers, rural lenders, and small business owners to discuss
issues important to agriculture and the rural economy. I have taken
suggestions from these meetings and drafted legislation -
encompessed within my Farts and Town Empowerment Plan -
that prorates the economic opportunities our farmers and rural
communities deserve.
The best way to help our farmers is to get Washington out of their way, while
preserving a safety net for the inevitable tough times. That safety net was
strengthened with the recent enactment of crop insurance reform. This legislation,
modeled after my Crop Insurance Refomn Act, is a vital and long-overdue tool in
helping farmers through difficult periods of crop failures and managing their risk in
periods of low prices. This legislation also contained $7.1 billion in emeruency aid to
producers. In addition, I was able to convince Congress to indt. ancy aid to
dairy farmers, which will be part of the annual agriculture spendirl _ ....
As Congress begins to work on a new farm bill, antiquated and outdated policies must
De removed from the books. For example, I have introduced legislation thiat would
, Worm federal dairy r I aa that prevent Mwrteeatle dewy farmers &amr reeeivlrg a **
price. We should disperse with dairy compacts Ihat hurt fanners' an consurnem
alike. and inject fairness back into the federal milk marketing orders. Other steps that
need to be taken include:
extending marketing assistance loans,
• flexibility in "locking in" Loan Deficiency Payments,
• reducing taxes and regulatory burdens on farmers,
• expanding markets abroad,
addressing concerns regarding concentration in agriculture, and
allowing farmers the option of placing land into shorter -term easements as part
of the Conservation Reserve Program.
