Motion by Peterson, second by Stotts, to approve first reading of Ordinance No. 08 -0502, sale of municipally -owned real property (former Dassel Clinic). Motion carried unanimously.

Because of this unbudgeted item, Mr. Olson is recommending that no seal coating take place this year.

Council Member Peterson noted that the road along the sanctuary is in much need of repair as well.

Life Link 111. Meeting called to order at 5:30 p.m. There was a quorum of members present. 1. Approve Minutes of January 17, 2008 meeting Motion made by Schwarze, second by McGraw to approve minutes. Unanimous approval. 2. Review Updated Hangar Assignments Commissioners reviewed the latest hangar map (w/ updates) Commissioners reviewed the latest priority list (w/ updates) 3. Operational Issues Buildin¢s — Olson reported that frost is very deep this year, and some of the problems in Hangars #3 and #4 are due to the deep frost. We can expect to have significant movement in the next month due to the frost. • Lights — Olson reported the transformers for the REIL lights were replaced. One brand of transformers is not doing the job, and because of our experience, Mn/DOT is inspecting the transformers and working with the manufacturer to rectify the problems with their brand of transformers. No Parkin4 — Life Link III staff have obeyed the no.parking signs; but, not everyone has. Meeting attendees were asked to remind airport users that no parking areas need to be respected and adhered to for safety reasons. Fuelin —Avgas pump is pumping at 10 -12 gpm. That has historically been the rate of flow. The repairs done to the tank & pump should eliminate cavitations in the summer. The remaining issue is to install the updated leak detection system, which should be completed soon, as the parts are now on hand. City staff were asked to work with the vendor to address the reason why the new pump, which is rated at 19 gpm is not functioning as expected. Crosswind Runw — Olson expressed thanks to all who helped to compile the list of the 47 based aircraft. The list was forwarded to TKDA and was sent by them to FAA for their review. Neither TKDA nor the City has heard from FAA yet whether we would be eligible for the crosswind runway. The project was to City Planning staff, the City Planning Commission and the Joint Planning Commission. If the project is eligible for federal funding, work to begin zoning the area that encompasses the runway, zone A and zone B would need to begin. A motion was made by McGraw, second by Cook to adopt resolution 08- 02 -21 -1, attached, recommending the project to the City Council. Unanimous approval. Hutchinson Airport Commission • Minutes February 21, 2008 Page 2 ��� Runway Extension (Double Displacement) — The potential project, along with its potential zoning challenges, was presented to the City's Planning Staff, the City's Planning Commission, and the Joint Planning Commission. Consensus of those groups indicates that they identify with the need for a potential . runway extension, but are very concerned about the zoning implication, particularly on the north end. Specifically, the Ravenwood development was done specifically to address the issues of existing zones A & B and the developer and property owners are being respectful of the airport zoning in that development. By extending the zone north, the airport zones would affect approximately 24 homes that would become existing non - conforming uses disallowing any significant changes in the properties falling within zone A. There would also be 3 churches and potentially 3 school facilities affected by zone B. After discussion, the Commission still wants to include the additional 1,000' of double displacement (500' on each end) in the Airport Layout Plan, provided the City can obtain a variance from state zoning to match the existing zoning, allowable by federal standards. It was identified by Commissioners and others attending that a runway extension requiring additional zoning to the north would likely make the project unfeasible. A motion was made by McGraw, second by Cook to adopt Resolution 08- 02 -21 -2. Unanimous approval. 4. Other Discussions/ New Business AJA Aviation LLC Brent Reiner. Pres. J — City staff received a letter dated January 18, 2008 from AJA Aviation, LLC indicating their intention to pursue construction of a private commercial hangar in the area south of the Civil Air Patrol building. Plans and specifications for the building have been presented to the City Building Official for his review. • The next step for AJA Aviation, LLC will be to indicate the area in which the building would be built. The area included in the legal description issued that last time a conditional use permit was issued for private commercial hangars does not include all of the area identified on the current ALP. Therefore, the Airport and AJA Aviation, LLC will need to be joint applicants for the conditional use permit. AJA Aviation, LLC also needs a conditional use permit to use pole -type construction similar to three other private general aviation hangars. The Airport could couple with AJA Aviation's application and identify the area appropriate for construction and include the description on the joint CUP application. Afer discussion, the Airport Commission decided that the first space in the limits of the commercial building pad area identified should be for AJA Aviation LLC's building. A motion was made by McGraw, second by Cook to adopt Resolution 08- 02 -21 -3. Unanimous approval Hutchinson Airport Commission Minutes February 21, 2008 Page 3 • Life Link I/I — Janet Scharmer, Life Link III presented before the Commission. She indicated that Life Link III had approvied funding for acquisition of a double -wide office trailer and a concerete pad for the helicopter. She did not know whether funding was approved for construction of a hangar. Therefore, since � �Q_)� there was already an application for the first hangar space in the area identified for development of private commercial hangars, Commissioners agreed that it would he beneficial to allow Life Link III to temporarily install the dboule -wide office trailer in the area immediately adjacent to the FBO hangar. Several options were discussed regarding the hangar, but because of unknown funding operations, it was determined that • allowing the temporary installation of the double -wide office trailer in the area immediately to the south of the FBO hangar would provide the greatest benefit to the airport. A motion was made by Schwarze, second by McGraw to allow Life Link III to temporarily place a double -wide in the area immediately south of the FBO hangar, pending their application for the same. Unanimous approfal. Fixed Base Operator agreement — The City Council extended the FBO contract for six months, as was recommended by the ASirpot Commsision at the last meeting. Olson presented a draft request for proposals based on the current contract that could be advertised as soon as Thursday February 28, 2008, The Airport Commission approved the proposed request for proposals as presented. Available Open Hangars — Aircraft are now stored in available open hangars for which the City is receiving no rent. After discussion, the Airport Commission ordered City staff to prepare billings for the owners of these aircraft. Billings would be made at 1 /2 the current rate for a period of up to three months. If, after 3 months, the aircraft is still stored in the open hangar, the owner of the aircraft would be required to formally lease the space and would be back - billed for the remaining'' /, of the rent for the previousl three months. The same criteria will be used if the FBO uses an available hangar for personal aircraft, but the FBO will not be charged if a customer's aircraft is being repaired. The FBO was granted authority to exceed the 2- hangar limit for a period of one year for personal aircraft. Airport Li hg ring In an effort to save energy and related costs, McGraw requested that City staff identify whether the airport's lights needed to be on low sening all nithg long, or whether there could be other marker lights installed and allow pilots to control runway lights with their avionics. E At 7:10 pm, a motion to adjourn was made by Schwarze, second by McGraw. Unanimous approval.

Rurm Extension (Double Displacement) — Olson informed the Commission that the City Council did not approve inclusion of double displacement runway extension on the ALP update. City, state & federal staff and Lyle Kratzke, TKDA had met to review options. Because of the zoning issues, Mn/DOT Aeronautics • indicated that it would be best to engage in an airport master planning process to ensure we have appropriate facilities for the region. The master planning process may be approved as early as this spring, but will likely end up being a FY2009 item. Fixed Base Operator aereemerrl — Olson reminded Commissioners that the City Council has extended the FBO contract for six months, as requested at a previous. The request for proposals advertisement was approved at the February Airport Commission meeting. The request for proposals will be advertised on March 25, with closing date of Friday April 11, 2008.

Other Discussions/ New Business AJA Aviation LLC (Brent Reiner, Pres.) — Olson reponed that the City Council approved drafting documents to allow AJA Aviation, LLC to pursue construction of a private commercial hangar in the area south of the Civil Air Patrol building. Tuesday night of this week, the Planning Commission approved the Conditional Use Permit to construct private commercial hangars in the area identified on the attached map. Olson reported that a meeting had been held with Mr. Reiner regarding conditions for construction of the hangar. Olson indicated the average and high lease rates from the 2004 Minnesota Council of Airports survey available from Mn/DOT. After discussion, it was identified that AJA Aviation, LLC would incur higher Than traditionally expected costs related to installation of water and sewer utilities resulting from the distance between these utilities and the location of the proposed hangar. u t 6-j � Airport Commission Minutes March 20, 2008 Page 2 • A motion was made by Brill to establish a lease rate of 50.20 per square foot.

Olson indicated that the airport has the land leased for agriculture. Also, private operations are allowed in the minimum standards only if they are aviation related. Discussion indicated that an alteration to the minimum standards to allow private operations that are not aviation related would need to be drafted and forwarded to the City Council for approval if the project were to be considered. Also of concern was the proximity of the proposal to the end of the runway. There was general concern for the potential safety implications of buildings in the area near the end of the runway. A motion made by Skaar, second by Brill to table this proposal.

Proposed Revisions to Sign & Awning Grant Rules After a brief discussion a motion was made to amend the language of the EDA's Sign & Awning Grant Program, specifically the Contractor / Permits paragraph, as follows: Contractor 1 Permits: A minimum of oae bid two bids per project must be obtained from contractors, the lower of which will be reimbursed. unless the work is done by the grant applicant. All required permits must be obtained. (Note: Deleted language is shown with a 04kethrough and new language is denoted by underlinirw • M /S/P: Gordon, Vaillancourt to adopt the amended language for the EDA's Sign & Awning Grant Program. Passed unanimously. VII. Proposed Company "X" Assistance Staff noted that DEED is making their incentive contribution for Company °X° a forgivable $500,000 loan made directly to the company. If the company meets its job creation goals the entire amount would be forgiven. Originally it was our understanding that the assistance would be in the form of a $500,000 grant to the city, which in turn would loan it to the company. As the company repaid the loan, the funds we become a permanent addition to the EDA's revolving loan fund. As part of the overall incentive package, 10 acres of land is to be provided to the company free of charge, the premise being that for an investment of about $56,000 (the original cost of the land) the city would get a new company, significant new job creation, potentially a $500,000 infrastructure grant and a $500,000 MIF grant which would ultimately become a permanent addition to the revolving loan fund. Now this last benefit will go directly to the company. The Board discussed the issue and concluded that the potential benefits of the project still far outweighed the projected costs. VIII. 2007 Annual Report is Miles Seppelt briefly summarized the 2007 EDA Annual Report. Highlights included: • Summary results for the last five years were included in the 2007 report. • 17 BR &E visits to manufacturers were made in 2007, with 46 companies being visited over the last five years. • Successful grant writing has increased the value of the EDA's economic development revolving loan fund from $194,840 in 2005 to $908,866 in 2007. • Warrior Mfg. has begun operations and Customer Elation has been recruited to the community. • A total of $845,000 in grants has been brought in over the last three years. • 20 Sign & Awning Grants were awarded totaling $32,117.88 • 6 Storefront Revitalization Matching Grants were awarded totaling $25,398.97 • Total EDA equity has risen to $2,959,735 • The final report will be posted to the internet shortly.

Ms. Bowers commented on the staff review of the overlay ordinance. She gave background on the proposed ordinance that was recommended from the Hwy 7 Study. She commented on proposed overlay area and noted the area was expanded based upon the recommendations at the last Planning Commission meeting. She explained the ordinance and stated this will be a new section in the City Code. The River Overlay District would be a new layer of review to meet the Study objectives. The vision and goals are from the Hwy 7 Study. She commented on the application of the ordinance to land use in the district. She summarized the details of the design standards. Landscaping and stormwater management standards were discussed. Ms. Bowers touched on the Architectural Design section and explained the signage and lighting section and the "way finding" signage. The Commission discussed how the standards would apply to existing buildings and properties. Staff reviewed the draft language that would apply the standards to redevelopment and new buildings constructed within the district. An option for exemptions for existing legal uses was discussed. The ordinance would allow existing uses to be exempted from the standards to allow construction of additions and new buildings on their properties without complying with the standards. The Commission supported the exemption for existing uses. The Commission discussed how the standards would apply to changes in uses or if a building was destroyed. If a building is destroyed, statutes allow it to be rebuilt if a building permit is applied for within 120 days. For changes in use, the regulations in place at that time would apply, as the exemption would be tied to the existing use. Discussion followed on clarifying the term uses or buildings. Greg Witt, Edina Realty, encouraged the Commission to get the language right before sending this through. He has concerns for the existing businesses and the change to their properties. Mr. Kovacic made a motion to close the hearing. Seconded by Mr. Flaata the hearing closed at 6:14 p.m. Mr. Kovacic made a motion to recommend approval of the request with staff recommendations.

PUBLIC HEARINGS a) CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST BY SKYVIEW DAIRY TO ALLOW EXPANSION OF DAIRY FEED LOT OPERATION FROM 1620 ANIMAL UNITS TO 2582 ANIMAL UNITS LOCATED IN SECTION 3, HASSAN VALLEY TOWNSHIP, AT 18503 NICKEL AVENUE • Chairman Arndt opened the hearing at 5:35 p.m. with the reading of publication #7671 published in the Hutchinson Leader on Thursday, April 3, 2008. Mr. Gasow commented on the request for a conditional use permit to expand the Skyview Dairy feedlot from 1620 animal units to 2582 animal units. He explained an amendment to the Ordinance was passed to allow an increase to existing feedlots of more than 400 animal units with a conditional use permit. He explained the feedlot permit application has been reviewed by the McLeod County Environmental Office the Water Plan Task Force committee that reviews and makes recommendations regarding feedlot applications has recommended approval with conditions. The MPCA has required a NPDES permit and manure management plan which reviews location and amounts of manure application on acres owned and spreading easements of neighboring land. The MPCA is still in their comment period and neither permit or plan have been approved to date. The DNR reviews and issues permits for water appropriation of more than 10,000 gallons per day or one million gallons per year. This is an unusual circumstance as discussed in previous hearings as to the size of this feedlot and it's location within the Hutchinson Joint Planning and its distance to the City of Hutchinson. The MPCA is reviewing and will be making comments on both the NPDES and Manure Management Plan, the McLeod County Environmental and Feedlot Officer has reviewed the application and Skyview Dairy has met the standards to operate a feedlot of this size. The issue is, does the City of Hutchinson and McLeod County wish to have a feedlot of this size to expand to the proposed requested size. To allow this expansion • through a CUP means that conditions can be placed on this expansion and they will need to be adhered to. To date there have been no recorded or known violations of feedlot rules or conditions placed on his existing CUP. Staff does have concerns as to future, if any, (D& 5 Minutes Joint Planning Board — April 16, 2008 Page 2 expansions and how large of an operation should be allowed within the Hutchinson Joint Planning Area before Skyview Dairy is required to re- located or expand from a greater • distance from the City of Hutchinson. Skyview Dairy has gone from the typical feedlot to a commercial sized feedlot and with this growth will have to come to the realization that they will be viewed as such and that any potential nuisances or non - conformances will have a heightened adverse affect on the public, environment and water quality. Mr. Gasow commented on the staff recommendations as follows: 1. The Skyview Dairy Conditional Use Permit is subject to the applicant obtaining and keeping all other necessary state and federal permits current, including but not limited to compliance with MN Rule Chapter 7020. 2. The Conditional Use Permit shall be reviewed by the McLeod County Planning & Zoning Department, the Environmental Services Department and a representative of the City of Hutchinson every three years or upon change of ownership. 3. Solid Waste produced at each site shall be picked up and disposed of according to State and local waste rules. 4. Deceased animals shall be disposed of properly. 5. Skyview Dairy shall have and keep a current Manure Management Plan on file in the Environmental Services office that meets all the requirements of MN Rule Chapter 7020. 6. The permit holder shall allow the McLeod County Feedlot Officer to inspect the site whenever necessary. The Feedlot Officer or representative shall provide adequate notice to the permit holder in advance of any inspection involving access to livestock buildings. 7. A Water Appropriation permit shall be kept current. The MN DNR has a Well • Interference Program. If interference occurs, the feedlot operator must follow the DNR directives regarding water use prioritization. 8. Skyview Dairy is required to have a minimum of 6 months worth of manure storage. 9.

N.E. TO ALLOW SEPARATE OWNERSHIP OF TWO EXISTING WALNUT RIDGE TOWNHOUSES REQUESTED BY BRUCE NAUSTDAL Background: The applicant is requesting a lot split for an existing rental duplex to allow separate ownership of each unit. The subject property is located in the Walnut Ridge Townhouse plat, which was platted in 1994. The duplex was constructed in 2002 as rental property. The lots would meet lot area, dimensions, lot coverage, and setback requirements. Additional details are included in the attached staff report to the Planning Commission.

Rezoning from R -1 (Single Family Residential) to I -1 (Light Industrial Park District) was approved in January 2008. Applicable Regulations: Section 153 City Code Transportation: Energy Park Drive from the north via 5 t° Ave. S.E Analysis and Recommendation: Preliminary Plat The preliminary plat proposes 14 lots of varying sizes from 2 acres to 10 acres. The proposed lot sizes would exceed the minimum lot area requirement of one acre for the I -1 district. The lots would also comply with the dimensional requirements of 200' lot width and 250' lot depth. The proposed north/south street would be Energy Park Drive, which would intersect with the southern edge of the plat runnin East and West (l0 Ave S.E.). There is a.2- acre outlot identified south of the proposed roundabout that results from the curved intersection of the two streets and roundabout. Staff is recommending that the outlot be eliminated and shown as right of way to avoid creation of a remnant parcel and allow additional public right of way in this area. This recommended revision is included in the draft conditions. Streets: Energy Park Drive would be the new north/south street that would intersect with a new cast/west street on the southern edge of the plat (10` Ave S.E.). Staff discussed the turning and sight lines created by the angle of this road and recommended allowing enough right of way for a round- about at that intersection. There would be no on street parking on Energy Park Drive. Grading, Stormwater, and Utilities: The attached grading plan identifies two stormwater ponds and a linear drainage way along • Energy Park Drive. Drainage and utility easement are identified for construction of the stormwater system. The stormwater system would provide storage and treatment capacity for cdc) -a- Planning Commission — May 20, 2008 Preliminary Plat — Energy Park Hutchinson EDA Page 3 • general development of the industrial park, however individual sites would be reviewed for coverage and drainage as part of the site plan approval process. Depending upon the coverage and drainage characteristics of each lot, additional pending may also be required. Water and sanitary sewer services for the industrial park would be constructed under Energy Park Drive and be constructed north from the main lines. Easements or right of way along the property lines would be obtained from the property owners to the south. At the planning staff meeting, staff supported the proposed preliminary plat with discussion on several items. Staff discussed the location of proposed trail in relation to roundabout and the best crossing for safety. The construction of the trail will depend upon the funding available for financing the improvements. Shared driveways will be required along side lots lines to allow the linear stormwater system to function and to minimize the number of driveways and traffic conflicts. Forestry staff recommended staging the planting of boulevard trees to result in a variety of ages of trees. Staff noted that tree plantings on each lot will also be required as part of the site plan review as required by the Zoning Ordinance. The staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat with the following recommendations: 1. The stormwater pond proposed for Block 1, Lot 6 shall be moved south of the identified location to allow a shared driveway at the northerly boundary of this lot. The location shall be approved by the City Engineer. 2. Shared driveways along side lot lines are required for all lots, unless a specific exception is approved by the City Engineer. Particular attention for placement of the • shared driveway must be taken for lots 5 and 6 on Block 1, due to the roundabout. The driveway shall be located on the shared lot line between lots 5 and 6 on Block 1. 3. The .2- acre outlet south of the proposed roundabout shall be eliminated and platted as right of way. 4. Final approval of the grading and utility plans is subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. 5. Future development of each lot will require final plat and site plan approval, as required by the Zoning Ordinance. 6. Fees for future development will be determined by the subdivision ordinance and the current City's fee schedule in effect at the time of building permit application. Engineering fees and sewer and water access fees will be based upon the site work necessary for the site and the specifics of the proposed use of the building to be constructed on the site.

The existing Headstart space would be converted to office space. The proposed building would be constructed on the same lot as the existing building and would share the parking area. Additional information is included in the attached report. Planning Commission Meeting: The Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the request at their May 20, 2008, meeting. There was no one from the public who spoke, other than the applicant. The Commission discussed the requirement for screening by fencing for commercial uses adjacent to residential property. The ordinance allows fences of lesser heights or planting screens if approved by the Council if it would adequately protect the use and enjoyment of properties within the adjacent residential district. Existing boulevard trees along the north and east property lines provide some screening. Staff noted that screening with landscaping may be more attractive than fencing in this case. The Commission discussed the chain link fencing on the west side of the property, the outdoor storage, and playground area, and if vines would work for screening on the chain link fence. Feedback will be requested from the City Forester on the feasibility of additional landscaping between the boulevard trees. Staff requested feedback from the Commission on the building design, which is steel building with a sloped flat roof. The applicant provided a drawing showing a metal roof overhang that would be similar to the existing building. The Commission encouraged the applicant to use exterior treatments that would improve the appearance. Various exterior treatments were discussed, such as stucco, partial brick fagade, striping, and architectural panels. The applicant stated the building would also have some shrubs around it and a sidewalk that improve the appearance. He stated his concern with the costs of the conditions and the requirement to direct the downspouts into the catch basin. Staff stated this was a recommendation from the City Engineer due to drainage issues to the west. Recommendation: The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the conditional use permit with the findings and conditions in the attached resolution. 4 &_�q RESOLUTION NO. 13405 RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW • CONSTRUCTION OF A BUILDING AT 904 HVWY 15 SOUTH FOR HEADSTART PRESCHOOL IN THE CA DISTRICT (FRINGE COM114ERCIAL) REQUESTED BY JAMES FAHEY, FAHEY SALES AGENCY, INC.

In 1997, a Conditional Use Permit was granted to Cellular One to allow a monopole tower located adjacent to the building. Applicable Regulations: Section 154.170 of City Code Transportation: Lynn Road S.W. and Clinton Ave. S.W. Analysis and • Recommendation: Approval of a conditional use permit is required for operation of a school in the C -4 district. A CUP shall be granted if the use meets the following standards: (a) The proposed building or use at the particular location requested is necessary or desirable to provide a service or a facility which is in the interest of the public convenience and will contribute to the general welfare of the neighborhood or community; (b) The proposed building or use will not have a substantial or undue adverse effect upon adjacent property, the character of the neighborhood, traffic conditions, utility facilities and other matters affecting the public health, safety and general welfare; and (c) The proposed building or use will be designed, arranged and operated so as to permit the development and use of neighboring property in accordance with the applicable district regulations. For the existing 7,320 sq. ft office space and proposed 2,400 sq. ft. school with two classrooms, 42 parking spaces are required. Although a certified survey has not been prepared, it appears the 42 spaces would be available. The applicant has identified 42 spaces, which includes 36 existing spaces remaining and 6 new parking spaces. Construction of the new building would result in a loss of 12 spaces. The provision of required parking spaces will be verified by staff after preparation of a certified survey before building permit is issued (condition added to • resolution). Ix Lc- q Planning Commission —May 20, 2008 Conditional Use Permit Fahey Sales Agency, Inc. Page 3 • At the planning staff meeting, staff discussed access to the site and noted that the driveways to the site are large and rather uncontrolled. The entrances, exits, and drop off areas should be identified clearly to reduce traffic conflicts. Staff also discussed concerns regarding the aesthetics of the proposed steel building (refer to attached plans). There are no regulations regarding the design or construction of steel buildings in this district, however as part of the conditional use permit process, a condition requiring some exterior treatments, such as a partial brick far would be appropriate due to the adjacent residential properties and visibility of site from Hwy 15 S. Staff also discussed stormwater drainage on site and recommended directing downspouts into the catch basin on the northwest comer of the lot to handle runoff. A new transformer will be set on the west property line. The Zoning Ordinance Section 154.155 requires screening by fencing of not less than 8 feet height with 100% opacity when adjacent to residential property. However, fences of lesser heights or planting screens may permitted by the Council if it would adequately promote and protect the use and enjoyment of properties within the adjacent residential district. There are some existing boulevard trees along the north and east property lines that provide some limited screening. With some additional landscaping on the subject property, landscaping could meet the screening requirements without a fence. Staff would recommend approval of the request with the following recommendations: 1. A certified property survey is required before a building permit will be reviewed. The survey shall clearly identify dimensions and setbacks for the building, parking, and drive • aisles, and identify the proposed traffic circulation on site. Review and approval of the site plan is required by the City Engineer and Planning Director before construction. 2. Parking spaces shall be striped and meet the requirements of Section 154.116. 3. Due to the adjacent residential properties and visibility of site from Hwy 15 S., the building shall be constructed with a facade treatment on four sides, such as a partial brick facade, to break up the flat metal exterior, provide more visual interest, and prolong the exterior appearance of the building. The proposed materials shall be identified on the building permit prior to construction. 4. Downspouts from the building shall be directed into drain the to the catch basin at the northwest comer of the site. 5.

The Zoning Ordinance allows retaining walls to be constructed within drainage and utility easements with approval of a CUP, however does not.allow the portion of the request. The applicant requested the following: 1. On the north side, construct a 2 foot high boulder retaining wall to be placed 4 feet into the 5 foot wide easement to construct a landing from the side door into the garage. The applicant states the wall is necessary to access the garage walk -thru door. 2. On the south side, construct a maximum of 4.3 foot high retaining wall 3 feet into the 20 • foot easement. The encroachment is requested due to the elevation change and to allow steps from the deck down to a proposed patio. Additional information is included in the attached report to the Planning Commission. Planning Commission Meeting: The Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the request at their May 20, 2008, meeting. There was no one from the public who spoke on the request, other than the applicant. The applicant stated that they will try to minimize the amount of encroachment into the easement and the height noted is the maximum height that would taper down. The homeowners would like to have a small patio on the south side to let their dog out from the upper deck. Staff stated the ordinance does not allow the construction of patios on easements and that the City should be careful of allowing encroachments into easements. The south side easement is larger as it is the area identified for stormwater pond maintenance access. The ordinance requirements and potential development to the south was also discussed. Options such as circular stairs were also discussed instead of constructing the patio in the easement. Recommendati The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the conditional use permit to allow the retaining walls in the easements, with the findings and conditions in the attached . resolution. t'045 RESOLUTION NO. 13406 • RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO ALLOW PLACEMENT OF RETAINING WALLS IN EASEMENTS LOCATED AT 1443 SOUTHFORK DRIVE S.E.

Applicant(s): Landscape Concepts Inc., and Jerome and Bonita Schanil, Property Owners CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT The applicants are requesting a CUP (conditional use permit) to allow retaining walls and a patio to be placed in the drainage and utility easements in the side yards of an existing home at 1443 Southfork Dr. S.E. The Zoning Ordinance allows retaining walls to be constructed within drainage and utility easements with approval of a CUP, however would not allow the patio portion of the request. The applicants' request is for the following: • 1. On the northwest comer of the house, to construct a 2 foot high boulder retaining wall to be placed 4 feet into the 5 foot wide easement to construct a landing from the side door into the garage. The applicant states the wall is necessary to access the garage walk -thru door on the north side of the home. 2. On the southeast corner of the house, to construct a 4.3 foot high retaining wall 3 feet into The 20 foot easement. The encroachment into the right of way with the retaining wall is requested to deal with an elevation change on the north side of the home and allow steps from the deck down to a proposed patio in the side yard. GENERAL INFORMATION Existing Zoning: R -3 PDD (Medium — High Density Residential Planned Development) Property Location: 1443 Southfork Drive S.E. Lot Size: 1.9 acres Existing Land Use: Single Family Residential Surrounding Uses: Residential, vacant /agricultural, and industrial to the east. Zoning History: Southfork Second Addition was platted in 2004. A 20 foot easement was platted on this property to allow for maintenance of the storrnwater pond. • Applicable Regulations: Sections 154.024 (B)(5) and 154.170 City Code (P LC�6 Planning Commission —May 20, 2008 Conditional Use Permit Retaining walls at 1443 Southfork Dr. S.E. Page 2 • Analysis and Recommendation: Section 154.024 (B)(5) (Yard space encroachments /steep slopes) allows "Retaining walls and landscaping timbers within easements by conditional use permit". The ordinance does not allow for a patio in the easement, which is shown on the plans for the south side of the house. For both sides of the home, the retaining walls appear to be necessary to deal with the steep grade along the house and provide a landing from the side door of the garage on the north. A CUP shall be granted if the use meets the following standards: (a) The proposed building or use at the particular location requested is necessary or desirable to provide a service or a facility which is in the interest of the public convenience and will contribute to the general welfare of the neighborhood or community, (b) The proposed building or use will not have a substantial or undue adverse effect upon adjacent property, the character of the neighborhood, traffic conditions, utility facilities and other matters affecting the public health, safety and general welfare; and (c) The proposed building or use will be designed, arranged and operated so as to permit the development and use of neighboring property in accordance with the applicable district regulations. The proposal was discussed at the staff meeting on May 5` Staff noted several concerns • however also noted that the retaining walls would be helpful in dealing with the steep grades on the property. Regarding the request for the north side, the electric and gas service is located in the 5 foot easement and would be buried by the fill for the retaining wall. The service may stay in place at the owner's risk, however, if it is moved, the cost will be at the property owners expense. The retaining wall is necessary to accommodate a landing from the side door of the garage on the north (refer to photos showing pallets by side garage door). On the south side, staff recommends that 3 feet of encroachment be allowed for the retaining wall only. The 20 -foot easement is for stormwater pond maintenance and it is important that it remain clear to allow equipment access to the pond in the future. The retaining walls appear needed due to erosion issues with the steep bank, however staff felt that the proposed paver patio is not necessary and should not be allowed in the easement. Alternatives for additional patio space are available in the rear yard. There is also an existing patio under the deck. Staff states that proper drainage must be maintained to protect the property to the north. There are no City records or drawings on file regarding the retaining walls on the northern property. Staff noted that the property to the north was required to obtain approval prior to any construction in the easement. Staff will follow up with the adjacent property owner regarding the retaining walls in the easement. • Staff recommends approval of the retaining walls due to the grade issues on site and erosion issues, however does not recommend approval of the patio. Staff recommends the following: & (C)J Planning Commission —May 20, 2008 Conditional Use Permit Retaining walls at 1443 Southfork Dr. S.E. Page 3 • 1.

No one from the public spoke on the request, other than the applicant's Engineer, Marty Campion, Otto Associates. Mr. Campion stated that the final plat is being driven by the ability to sell Outlot B to the hospital. He commented on the recommendation to revise Outlot A into right of way. He stated that as the right of way for Sherwood Street would not likely be the same as the current Outlot A configuration, the applicant would need to replat the remainder. Staff stated that the recommendation was to address possibility that the outlot may hold up development of the HAHC property to the south. Mr. Campion stated that it is not their intention and suggested revising the condition to require the applicant to plat Outlot A for the Sherwood Street right of way as soon as an alignment is agreed upon with the City. The Commission and staff discussed the revised condition and found it would address staffs concerns. The revised condition is included in the attached resolution.

Final Plat Planning Commission - May 20, 2008 Southwind Second Addition Page 2 GENERAL INFORMATION • Existing Zoning: R -2 (Medium Density Residential) Existing Land Use: Vacant Adjacent Land Use And Zoning: Vacant/Agricultural property and R -2 (Medium Density Residential) Comprehensive Land Use Plan: Traditional Residential Neighborhood Zoning History: Southwind received preliminary plat approval in 2003. This final plat is the second phase of the preliminary plat. Applicable Regulations: Section 153.50 — 153.051 (Final Plat) Transportation: Calgary Lane S.E. and Toronto Blvd. S.E. Analysis and Recommendation: Final Plat: The requested final plat for Southwind Second Addition proposes 7 lots for construction of single family homes and 2 out] ots. The applicant is proposing to plat 7 lots for development in the areas where infrastructure has been constructed. The remaining 17.45 acre Outlot B would be sold to Hutchinson Area Healthcare. Six of the single family lots are located south of Ottawa Ave. on each side of Calgary Lane. The 3 lots on the west side of Calgary are the same size as the approved preliminary plat of Southwind. The 3 lots on the east side of Calgary Lane are deeper than shown on the original preliminary plat due to the drainage and utility easement for the stormwater pond, however are consistent with the approved grading plan. Lot 1, Block 3, would be platted at the southeast corner of the site along Toronto and is consistent with the preliminary plat. The proposed single family lots would range from 9,895 to 19,074 sq. R, which would meet the subdivision and R -1 zoning requirements, subject to the conditions noted. Outlot A/Sherwood Street The applicant proposes to keep Outlot A for future access and development to the strip of property to the west along Sherwood Street. Staff is recommending that Out] ot Abe dedicated as public right of way, rather than platted as a privately owned outlot, to allow future construction of this segment of Sherwood Str. SE. that will extend south to connect to Airport Road. Road Extensions/Emergency Turnarounds: At the staff meeting, a couple of items were identified that will be addressed as a condition of the final plat Calgary Lane may extend south to the future HAHC development, however until the property develops the applicant must construct a turnaround at the south end of Calgary Lane for • emergency services and maintenance. The same will be required for the end of Toronto Blvd The turnarounds could be a cul -de -sac or a T — road on one of the lots. The design and location of the turnaround is subject to approval by the City Engineer. (0 (j (�o Final Plat Planning Commission —.May 20, 2008 Southwind Second Addition Page 3 • Stormwater Drainage: Staff discussed drainage in the area of proposed Outlot A and Outlot B, between the southerly border of Southwind and the northern boundary of the future HAHC development. The grading plan approved with the preliminary plat d drainage into the area between the first and second additions. As development plans have changed and Outlot B will be sold to HAHC, cooperation between the two property owners will be essential to assure proper stormwater management. The applicant shall coordinate and give consideration for provision of stormwater management between the subject site, the HAHC property, and future property owners, including ensuring positive drainage, stormwater collection, conveyance and treatment. The applicant shall also maintain positive drainage across the westerly lots and right of way. Staff is recommending a revision to the plat to provide a total of 20' wide drainage and utility easement between Lots 1 & 2 on Block 1 and Lots 2 & 3, Block 2, to allow for stormwater lines and drainage ways that runs between these lots. A condition is noted below to require 10' wide easements on these lots. Staff notes that the proposed 5' wide side yard drainage and utility easements in the Southwind development do not meet City subdivision requirements, which require 6' side and 10' front and rear easements. However, 5' wide side yard easements were provided throughout the Southwind subdivision. Staff was unable to determine where an exception was granted or if the easements were missed in the preliminary plat review in 2003. For consistency purposes, staff believes the remaining 7 single family lots may utilize a 5' wide easement, except for the larger 10' wide easement on the lots noted for stormwater management. • Tree Escrow: The City Forester stated there is money escrowed for the boulevard trees for the Southwind preliminary plat. As the escrow amount was based upon the total number of lots proposed with the preliminary plat, the City will be able to authorize the release of the amount of escrow for the lots that will not be developed by the applicant (this was held in bank escrow, not by the City). Staff will determine the balance required and provide information on the amount of escrow that can be released to the applicant after approval of the final plat. Staff recommends approval of the final plat for Southwind Second Addition with the following conditions: 1. Outlot A shall be dedicated as right of way, rather than platted as an outlot, for future construction of Sherwood Str. SE. to allow extension south to Airport Road. 2. The final plat shall be revised to provide a total of 20' wide drainage and utility easement between Lots I &a on Block 1 and Lots 2 & 3, Block 2, to allow for stormwater lines and drainage ways that runs between these lots. The following drainage and utility easements shall be provided: 10' wide easements along the southerly side lot line of Lot 2, Block 1, the northerly side lot line of Lot 3, Block 1, the southerly side lot line of Lot 2, Block 2, and the northerly side lot line of Lot 3, Block 2. 3. The applicant shall construct turnarounds at the south end of Calgary Lane and the west end of Toronto Blvd. for emergency services and maintenance prior to issuance of a . certificate of occupancy for the homes on these streets. The design and location of the turnarounds shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer. (P(O Final Plat Planning Commission —May 20, 2008 Southvvind Second Addition Page 4 4. The applicant shall coordinate and provide for stonnwater management between the subject site, the HAHC property, and/or other future property owners, including ensuring positive drainage, stormwater collection, conveyance and treatment. The applicant shall also ensure and maintain positive drainage across the westerly lots and right of way. Plans must be approved by City Engineer prior to any grading or construction. 5.

'Ibis assessment was administered in 1984 for trunk storm sewer improvements across several properties. During the years since the approval of these assessments, many of them have been removed when adjacent roadways and associated storm sewer systems have been implemented. However, City staff proposes to remove this assessment at 951 Golf Course Rd NW with the understanding that there may be future assessments or charges for trunk storm sewer and other . utility services when this parcel is developed or adjacent roadways are improved. We recommend approving the attached Resolutions to authorize the removal of this assessment. cc: Gary Plotz — City Administrator 0 Lo W� RESOLUTION NO. 13408 RESOLUTION DELETING ASSESSMENTS • ASSESSMENT ROLL NO.

What's the difference between a RAC & a RRB? A Regional Radio Board: is responsible for developing and implementing regional interoperability plans, policies and procedures -is responsible for coordinating with the State Radio Board -can apply for and hold licenses for public safety frequencies to be used regionally and locally -can acquire property, both real & personal, necessary for accomplishment of its purposes -can apply for & receive grants on behalf of one or more member counties -can establish user fees to offset the cost of operations -can contract w /State agencies and local subdivisions for management of local radio sub - systems - establishes these committees: Technical, .Administrative, Operations, Radio Users, Owners /Operators -(the RAC also continues as an operating committee, handling the day -to -day work of the RRB) 7. Regional Radio Board Representation -each county appoints one Commissioner to the RRB -each city appoints one I'vtayor /Council member to the RRB -other non - voting members appointed from various RRB committees S. Regional Radio Board Budget - county and city yearly fees to be determined by a Regional Radio Board - approved cost sharing formula 9. • RRB Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) approval schedule 5/14 South Central RAC reviews suggested changes and approves a final JPA 5/15 -6/11 JPA presented to county boards and city councils for final approval (, C�) A.

G202.02 Discussion The Minnesota Legislature finds that the reality or public perception of racial profiling alienates people from police, hinders community policing efforts, and causes law enforcement to lose credibility and trust among the people law enforcement is swom to protect and serve. No stop or contact initiated by a peace officer should be made without a legitimate reason. However, it is further recognized that other forms of bias can be as pervasive as racial profiling. Therefore, it is necessary to include these other forms of bias (age, ethnicity, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion or Americans with Disabilities issues) within the same context as racial profiling to truly develop a policy statement, which comports with eliminating bias and developing impartial responses to policing services. 0 G202.03 Policy It is the policy of the Hutchinson Police Services to provide services to the community and its' customers in a fair, impartial, unbiased and dignified manner. Employees shall always be professional, respectful, and courteous when dealing with customers as well as shall not consider race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability or appearance when deciding the appropriateness of the services provided. G202.04 Definitions Racial Profiling —Minnesota Statute 626.8471 Subd. 2. Means any actions initiated by law enforcement that relies upon the race, ethnicity, or national origin of an individual rather than: (1) the behavior of that individual; or (2) information that leads law enforcement to a particular individual who has been identified as being engaged in or having been engaged in criminal activity. Racial profiling includes use of racial or ethnic stereotypes as factors in selecting whom to stop and search. Impartial — Where employees treat all individuals alike, in an equitable, fair and just manner. Unbiased — Where employees have no inclination, preconceived opinion or predisposition to decide a cause or an issue in a certain way, and which leaves the mind open to evaluate the facts so as to render an impartial conclusion. V�) Directive: G202 • Date: 05 -01 -08 Enforcement Contact – including but not limited to investigative detention, pedestrian and vehicle stops, arrests, searches and property seizures. Service Contact — including but not limited to assisting with animal complaints, providing crime prevention information, providing directions, crowd control and /or traffic control, medical assistance and other non - enforcement activities. G202.05 Enforcement Contact 1. Officers may, when observing a violation of law or suspicious activity, stop any individual believed to be involved. The officer(s) shall be able to articulate specific facts, circumstances and conclusions that support the reasonable suspicion or probable cause for the contact. 2. Under no circumstances shall an officer(s) consider the race, age, ethnicity, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or disability as the sole purpose to effect a contact. However, an officer(s) may take into account the aforementioned descriptors of a specific suspect(s) based upon credible, reliable, relevant information that links specific, suspected, unlawful activity to a particular individual or group of individuals. This information may be used in the same manner regarding age, height, weight, etc about specific suspects. • 3. As soon as is practicable (when the officer(s) have gained control of the scene and officer safety is not an issue), the officer(s) shall identify himself/herself to the individual (name and department) and state the reason for the contact. The officer(s) shall attempt to answer any relevant questions the individual may have regarding the enforcement contact, including referrals to other agencies when appropriate. 4. The officer(s) shall maintain a professional, respectful and dignified demeanor during the contact. At the conclusion of the contact, the officer(s) shall provide to each individual detained an official City of Hutchinson business card (each business card shall indicate the officers name, badge number, office contact numbers, email address and information regarding the Attorney General toll free telephone number if an individual has a complaint regarding the contact). G202.06 Service Contact All employees shall provide, to the best of their ability and to the extent that resources allow, the best possible services to the customers, which the department is called upon to serve. • 2 Directive: G202 Date: 05 -01 -08 • 2. Under no circumstances shall an employee consider the race, age, ethnicity, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or disability when providing service to any customer. 3. The employee(s) shall maintain a professional, respectful and dignified demeanor during each contact. G202.07 Supervisory Responsibility Supervisors are responsible for the distribution and documentation indicating receipt of this policy. 2. Supervisors shall review each employees work habits and contactsto determine compliance with this policy. In each situation where the supervisor believes there is a lack of compliance, the supervisor shall immediately prepare and implement with the employee a corrective action plan. L 0 a HUTCHINSON POLICE SERVICES PROCEDURE • Subject Use of Force Directive: P151 Date Issued: 05-01 -08 Date Effective: 05 -01.08 Supersedes: 05 -01 -95 Number of Pages: 11 P151.01 Purpose This directive establishes guidelines and identifies circumstances underwhich officers of the Hutchinson Police Services may utilize non - lethal and deadly force. P151.02 Policy Officers of the Hutchinson Police Services may use non - lethal force in accordance to M.S.A. 609.06 and deadly force in accordance to M.S.A. 609.06, 609.065 and 609.066. P151.03 Definitions Deadly Force Any force which the officer uses with the purpose of causing, or which the officer should reasonably know creates a substantial risk of causing death or great bodily harm. The intentional discharge of a firearm in the direction of another person, or at a vehicle, in which another person is believed to be, constitutes deadly force. The use of a police motor vehicle to make contact with a suspect's vehicle; or the use of a roadblock wherein no escape lane is established. 11 � J 2. Non Lethal Force Any use of force other than that which is considered deadly force. P151.04 Discussion Police officers shall only use force that is reasonably necessary to effectively bring an incident under control. The value of human life is held to be immeasurable in our society. This department and its officers have been delegated the responsibility of protecting life and property. Protection of property shall at all times be secondary to the protection of life. The primary responsibility of the Hutchinson Police Services and its members is to protect the lives of the citizens it serves. An officer's responsibility for protecting life shall also include his /her own and that of their fellow officers. Even though all officers shall be prepared to utilize their firearms when necessary, restraint shall be exercised in their use. Caution shall also be used when firing a weapon under conditions that would subject innocent citizens to substantial danger. When firearms are used the intent is not to kill but to completely disable/ incapacitate the person /threat as quickly as possible. All officers shall be cognizant of the fact that when using justifiable deadly force against a person, great bodily harm or death may be a direct result. Killing is not the officers' goal but may occur. Firearms shall never be used to bluff a person into submission nor shall warning shots be fired. This does not mean, however, that an officer may not draw his /her weapon if a situation dictates that its use may be necessary, nor does it mean that the officer shall shoot in every instance that he /she draws his/her weapon. The use of a motor vehicle as an implement of deadly force should never be 0 Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 • forgotten. An automobile, when used to strike a suspect's vehicle is considered to be the use of deadly force. Officers shall remember that a squad car should never be used to intentionally strike another vehicle or use as a roadblock unless deadly force is authorized. P151.05 Authorized Use of Non Lethal Force Officers shall use the least amount of force reasonably necessary to accomplish the intended objective without impairing the safety of others. Officers shall not be required to first attempt to use types and degrees of force, which reasonably appear to be inadequate to accomplish the intended objective. Officers shall be permitted to use reasonable force for the following: In effecting a lawful arrest; or 2. In the execution of legal process; or 3. In enforcing an order of the court; or 4. In effecting any other duty imposed on the officer by law. P151.06 Authorized Use of Deadly Force /Discharging of Firearms 1. To protect the officer or another from apparent death or great bodily harm. 2. To effect the arrest or capture of a person whom the officer knows, or has reasonable grounds to believe has committed or attempted to commit a felony involving the use, or threatened use, of deadly force. 3. To effect the arrest or capture, or prevent the escape of an individual whom the officer knows, or has grounds to believe has committed or attempted to commit a felony if the officer reasonably believes that the individual shall cause death or great bodily harm if the individuals apprehension is delayed. 4. At an approved range. 5. For the disposal of seriously injured or sick animals when other means of disposal are impractical. For disposal of dangerous animals when their capture or escape would expose the officer or the public to immediate bodily harm. P151.07 Levels of Force In a majority of cases, some level of physical force shall be necessary to effect an arrest or to protect others. That amount of physical force may be as low as placing a hand on a subject's shoulder or arm, and directing that subject to place his hands behind his back for handcuffing. Depending on the level of resistance offered, the officer may use techniques that may escalate to physically pinning the • 2 9 �) Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 . subject to respond to techniques that influence behavior by eliciting pain in order to apply handcuffs using hand/leg strikes, impact weapons, or even the use of a firearm, if the resistance offered is life threatening. 2. For the purpose of this policy, the use of force shall be examined from two perspectives; resistance and control. Both control and resistance can be in the form of verbal directives or physical action; resistance is defined as actions thatare directed from the subject towards an officer, while control is directed from the officer towards the subject A. Resistance is manifested by the subject who attempts to evade an officer's attempts of control. The amount and type of resistance shall vary, based on a variety of factors. B. Control is the force an officer uses to influence or neutralize the unlawful, physical actions of a subject under arrest. Generally, there are four times an officer is justified in using physical control methods, they are to stop potentially dangerous and unlawful behavior; to protect the officer or another from injury or death; to protect a subject from injury himself/herself; and in the process of effecting lawful arrest, when the subject offers resistance. C. Justification of the use of force in the judicial system is measured by two broad standards. First, the officer's use of control methods was initiated bya subject's resistance. Second, the level of physical force used by the officer was "reasonable" and not excessive when considering the type of resistance offered by the subject. P151.08 Levels of Resistance Resistance is defined as the force used by a subject under arrest against the officer(s) who is effecting the arrest. Although the resistance offered by a subject is usually physical, the type and amount of resistance an officer meets is determined by the subject's level of intent. The intent of the subject may range from passive resistance to an active, aggressive attack on the officer. Resistance may be categorized into three broad areas; 1) verbal dialogue, i.e., denial or threats of resisting arrest; 2) physical resistive actions, i.e., passive resistance /active resistance; and, 3) aggressive acts; i.e., against the officer, often leading to severe physical injury. The officer's actions to resistance shall be based upon his perception of the level of resistance. The officer has been trained to use the necessary amount of force to control a subject offering any level of resistance. Psychological Intimidation: Non - verbal actions, often called body language, often influence an officer's decision on how to approach a subject or what level of force to use if a subject starts to resist an arrest. Non - verbal intimidation actions may include clenching of E 3 (v�) Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 • fists, widening of foot stance or a blank expression that may warn an officer of the individual's emotional state. These non - verbal intimidation actions often warn an officer of a subject's potential for violence, even when the subject has offered no verbal threats. However, an officer's reaction to a subject's non - verbal intimidation signals should be used as information to mentally propose the officer's alternatives to possible attack, not as a justification for attack. An officer, who reads the non - verbal signals and believes that physical control is necessary to prevent a subject from injury himself/herself, others, or the officer, may initiate action before the subject makes any overt moves. 2. Verbal Non - Compliance: A subject's dialogue that offers the threat of physical resistance to an officer's commands is not normally considered resistance until he /she physically resists control. However, dialogue in the form of threats of physical injury may influence an officer's opinion as to the amount of force needed to effect control. An offender may boast of his/her fighting skill and his/her intention to injure the officer, or assume a fighting stance such as raised hands or clenched fists. Verbal threats or psychological threats may influence the officer's judgement to attempt either empty hand control, impact weapons, or even firearms if the subject has a weapon or has such great physical skills that a threat to the officers life is perceived. The reaction to verbal threats made by a subject may differ from officer to officer. An officer's decision of the level of force necessary to control a subject shall be based on his perception of the threat and the subject's ability to carry out that threat. An additional factor is the officer's knowledge of his/her own physical ability to manage the threat presented. If the officer believes that he /she does not have sufficient skill to establish control with empty hand methods, he /she has been trained to escalate the level of force. Passive Physical Resistance: Passive resistance is the lowest level of physical resistance. The subject resists control through passive, physical actions. At this level, the offender never makes any attempt to defeat the physical contact of the officer. Passive Resistance is usually in the form of a relaxed or "dead weight" posture intended to make the officer lift, pull or muscle the subject to establish control. 4. Defensive Physical Resistance: Quite often officers find themselves confronting a suspect who is physically resisting the officer's attempt to control the subject by directing overt, defensive, physical actions. With this level of resistance, the offender attempts to push /pull away, in a manner that does not allow the officer to establish control. However, the subject never attempts to strike the officer. Is 4 Mi Directive: P151 • Date: 05 -01 -08 5. Active Physical Aggression: Active physical aggression is when a suspect attacks the officer to defeat attempts of control. The attack is a physical assault on the officer in which the offender strikes or uses techniques in a manner that may result in injury to the officer or others. 6. Aggravated Active Physical Aggression; Aggravated active physical aggression is when a subject uses a level of physical force that the officer usually shall use, or at least, is justified in using deadly force. At this level, officers may not only face resistance to an arrest, but also overt, physical actions of force where the subject is assaulting the officer with a weapon, and /or uses techniques or objects which could result in death or great bodily harm to the confronting officer. P151.09 Levels of Control The force that an officer uses to gain control over a subject's resistant actions is divided into the following categories: verbal direction, empty hand control, intermediate weapons, and lethal force. Once an officer determines that he /she shall use physical force, the level of force used shall be dependent upon the officer's perception of • resistance and danger of that resistance, and whether that resistance is placing the officer or another in jeopardy of serious injury or death. It is important to note that each officer's perception of the danger of the level of resistance shall be based upon his/her past training, experience, and knowledge of physical control techniques. Verbal Direction: Good communication skills or verbal direction can resolve the majority of situations. Often, the mere presence of an officer and proper verbal direction shall be sufficient to persuade most individuals to follow an officer's direction. In any verbal confrontation, fear and anger shall be defused before a suspect shall be able to understand the officer's commands; this requires good communication skills and patience. Successful communication techniques can prevent many physical confrontations from escalating to higher levels. ' 2. Handcuffs and Restraints: The purpose of handcuffs, Flexcuffs, or transport handcuffs is to restrain the movements of a subject in a manner that provides a safe means of transportation for officers. Restraints also prevent further physical resistance from a subject. Courts have consistently held that handcuffing is a use of force, and thus shall meet the reasonableness standard of Graham v. Connor, 109 U.S. 1865 (1989). Officers shall consider the severity of the offense; whether the suspect poses an immediate threat to the officer or others; and whether the suspect was actively • q �� Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 • resisting or attempting to evade arrest by flight. There are three (3) things to consider that can help reduce risks of using handcuffs: Tightness of the cuffs, pre- existing injuries, and the use for officer safety. The departmental policies for the use of restraints are as follows: Arrestee A. All subjects taken into custody should be handcuffed behind their back and the handcuffs should be gapped and double - locked, unless certain, documented exceptions are present. B. Officers should respond to complaints about tightness of handcuffs as soon as practically possible. Depending on the severity of the situation the officer is handling, the time can vary. For example, if the officer is handling a dangerous situation, it is acceptable to wait longer to check on a complaint of handcuffs that are too tight. If it is a controlled situation the officer should check immediately, and once assured they are not too restrictive, continue with their work. C. For the safety of officers, all subjects should be handcuffed before being searched. D. Except under exceptional circumstances, officers should not handcuff a subject to fixed objects such as posts, vehicles, buildings, etc. • E. It is not uncommon for an officer to arrest a subject, place him/her in restraints, and then have the subject start to resist. If an officer does encounterthis type of resistance, the officer should utilize control techniques to prevent injuries to the officer or injuries to the subject. Due to a high degree of probability of injury and potential for positional asphyxiation, subjects should not be restrained in any fashion where the hand restraints and ankle restraints are connected to each other (i.e. hog tie). F. Behind the back handcuffing of a non - threatening, non -flight risk, cooperative arrestee, who has been arrested for a minor crime, and who has informed the officer of a pre- existing injury, may constitute excessive force. G. Not every situation allows for officers to handcuff and claim officer safety as the reason. "Officer Safety" is defined as a situation that would lead a reasonable officer to believe that there is a reasonable safety concern. H. Under all circumstances, at a minimum, a use of force report shall be completed anytime a person is placed in hand restraints by an officer. • 6 qt� Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 • Mental Health Handcuffing of person(s) taken into custody on an emergency hold is addressed in policy P330.06.1. Additionally, when a person is placed in handcuffs and then questioned in an Investigative manner, a higher standard of voluntariness could be argued. Under this circumstance, a reasonable person may not believe they were free to leave while they are handcuffed. 3. Empty Hand Control: Empty hand controls are physical contact techniques that cover a number of subject control methods. Some of these methods may be as subtle as gently guiding a subject's movements, to more dynamic techniques such as strikes, kicks, or neck restraints which may have a higher potential of injury to the subject. This policy divides empty hand control into two categories; soft empty hand control, which are techniques that have minimal implications of injury, and hard empty hand control which are techniques that have a higher probability for subject injury. A. Soft Empty Hand Control: This level of control is used when an officer faces passive or defensive physical resistance. These are methods of physical. control that usually • subdues an offender without any severe injuries. Techniques which fall into this category are: strength techniques, joint locks, leverage locks, pain compliance techniques such as pressure points, or strikes that temporarily inhibit a subject's movement. These strikes are designed to create loss of breath, muscle cramping, or mental disorientation. B. Hard Empty Hand Control: This level of control is for high levels of defensive resistance, active aggression, or aggravated active aggression. These techniques are applied when lower forms of control have failed or when not applicable, because the subject's resistance level was at a perceived dangerous level. Techniques that fall into this level of force have a probability of creating soft or connective tissue damage, skin lacerations that require medical attention, or bone fractures. Although the use of these techniques may create some minimal injury to the offender, an officer may be risking injury to him/herself or have to utilize higher levels of control (such as intermediate weapons) if hard empty hand control is not used. Techniques that are considered as hard empty hand tactics are: 1) Striking Techniques - which are techniques that may be delivered with an officer's open hand, fist, forearm, leg, or foot. Preferably, the target points for these types of strikes shall be delivered to major 1J Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 muscle mass such as the legs, arms, shoulders, or side of the neck. If the targets are these, the strikes shall create muscle cramping, thus inhibiting muscle action. However, it may be necessary for the officer to strike areas where there is a potential for injury, such as the face or very sensitive areas of the body. 2) Medical Considerations: Any time an officer finds it necessary to strike a subject where an injury occurs, it is the policy of this department that the officer shall: a) Immediately contact the supervisor or senior officer on duty and advise him/her of the nature of the injury. b) The supervisor, senior officer on duty or the officer shall transport, or cause to be transported, the subject to the closest medical facility for medical attention. 4. Intermediate Weapon Control: This level of control employs the use of department approved tools that provide a method of controlling subjects when deadly force is not justified, but when empty hand control techniques are not sufficient in effecting an arrest. Whenever an officer uses an intermediate weapon for control, it should always be with the intent to temporarily disable an offender, and never with the intent of creating permanent injury. When intermediate weapons are used, it is quite likely that some form of skin irritation, bruising, soft or connective tissue damage to bone fracture may occur. Impact Weapon: The department approved baton, which is the expandable straight baton or PR24, is a tool that can provide a means by which an officer can defend himself or another from injury and a means of controlling offenders when an officer is facing resistance in the form of active aggression or aggravated active aggression. The polices of the carrying and use of impact weapons are as follows: A. No officer shall carry an impact weapon in which he /she has not had certified training. B. The impact weapon should be carried in the baton ring or in a low profile position when the baton is not being used. C. At no time shall an officer unnecessarily brandish, or use the impactweapon as an intimidation device unless the officer is attempting to prevent the further escalation of force. is [3 qLO)- Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 • D. All strikes with an impact weapon should be delivered to the following areas; major muscle mass; such as the forearms, thighs, or calves. These locations should be primary targets because of the low implications of subject injury. Impact weapon strikes normally create severe muscle cramping which inhibits a subject ability to continue aggression. 1) Joints or Bones: These targets, the elbows, wrists, and knees, have a high probability of creating soft or connective tissue damage or bone fractures when struck with an impact weapon. 2) Head, Neck. Throat and Clavicle: Impact weapon strikes to these areas should not be used unless the officer is justified in deadly force. These striking points have high implications of creating severe injury in the forms of great bodily harm or death. P151.10 Reporting the Discharge of a Firearm 1. Whenever an officer discharges a firearm, whether accidental or intentionally, while in an official capacity, or department owned weapon at anytime, he /she shall immediately, or as soon as circumstances allow, do the following: A. Determine the physical conditions of any injured person and render medical aid when appropriate. • B. Request necessary support personnel and emergency medical aid. C. Notify a supervisor. 2. The supervisor shall proceed to the scene of the incident, temporarily isolate the officer involved and begin an investigation. 3.

The officer(s) involved shall be required to surrender all department issued firearm(s) under his/her control. The Chief of Police shall attempt to issue the officer(s) another weapon as soon as possible taking into consideration the facts of the incident, physical /psychological condition of the officer(s), and availability of weapons. NOTE: It should be noted that the requirements of Sections D and E need to be conducted discreetly so as to not stigmatize the officer(s) involved with a feeling of guilt. F. The officer shall not be required to complete an incident report until ordered by the Chief of Police (Garrity Warning) • G. After giving consideration to the constitutional rights of the officer involved the supervisor and the BCA investigator shall begin an investigation. The supervisor's responsibility shall center on administrative issues. The BCA investigator shall investigate the incident from a criminal intent perspective. The investigations shall not be conducted in concert. NOTE: If a conflict arises in the collection of evidence, the criminal investigation shall take precedence over the administrative investigation. The BCA shall be responsible for the following 1) Interviews with the officer and any witnesses. 2) Collection of all physical evidence. 3) The completion of all investigation reports. 4) Keeping the chief of police informed of the status of the investigation H. The officer(s) involved shall be placed on administrative leave with pay until a final determination by the chief of police and county attorney is made. Prior to reinstatement to routine duties the officer(s) shall be required to be a�� Directive: P151 Date: 05 -01 -08 • evaluated by a professional psychologist/psychiatrist. Only the Chief of Police may waive this requirement. NOTE: It should be noted that officers involved in shooting incidents frequently experience "post traumatic stress" in various forms. It shall be the policy of this department to be sensitive to an officer(s) emotional need. Professional counseling /assistance shall be made available to officer(s) involved in shooting incidents. All attributing costs shall be bome by the police department. Peer guidance shall also be made available pursuant to the Critical Incident Stress Debriefing policy. (See P381) All press releases related to the investigation shall be the responsibility of the chief of police. J. Only the chief of police may alter this procedure. He /She may at any stage of the investigation request assistance in or completion of the investigation by another agency with the jurisdictional authority to do so. 5. The routine discharge of a weapon during training or for the necessary destruction of an animal is exempt from this procedure. P151.11 Reporting the Use of Force • Any time an officer utilizes force either non - lethal force or deadly force, the officer shall complete a "Use of Force Report" form. The officer's report should indicate the level of resistance the officer met, and the specific level and type of force the officer used to establish control. In the event a death occurs from the use of force, the completion of this report shall be delayed until the completion of the criminal investigation in the event the Chief of Police orders one. The form shall be placed in the case file. 11 q ta) I �J HUTCHINSON POLICE SERVICES PROCEDURE Subject Tasere Directive: P165 Date Issued: 05 -01 -08 Date Effective: 05 -01 -08 1 Supersedes: Number of Pages: 4 P165.01 Purpose The purpose of this policy is to provide guidelines for the use of the X -26 Advance Taser. The X -26 Advanced Taser has been determined to be an extremely effective, less than lethal weapon for gaining compliance of uncooperative subjects /suspects. P165.02 Scope Training and use to all officers who are issued the X -26 Advanced Taser. P165.03 Definition The X -26 Advance Taser is a hand held, aimed, battery operated, less lethal electronic control device. Voltage is applied to a subject by two probes connected to conducting wires propelled from a charged cartridge, or from direct contact. The unit uses an Electro- muscular disruptive system that overrides the central nervous system. The X -26 develops 50,000 volts at 0.162 amps of electricity which when applied affects the sensory and motor nervous systems resulting in temporary, involuntary, muscle • contractions. The contractions will incapacitate a subject so they can be placed under the control of law enforcement officers. For the purpose of this policy the X -26 Advanced Taser is considered a less lethal weapon likely to have less damaging effects on a subject/suspect than hard empty hand control techniques (striking and kicking) or impact weapons (baton) and shall be listed on the force continuum before these use of force options. P165.04 Application The X -26 Advanced Taser may be used in situations where force is justified to control an aggressive, non - compliant subject/suspect thereby reducing the likelihood of injury to officers and suspects /subjects. 2. The maximum range is 35 feet. 3. The X -26 Advanced Taser may be deployed by direct drive /stun contact when a physical confrontation is already in progress with other officers. 4. The deploying officer shall inform other officers of the presence and planned use of the Taser prior to deployment if feasible, so the shot of the Taser is not mistaken for a gun shot. The verbal command used should be "Taser". n U � (0), Directive: P165 • Date: 05 -01 -08 5. The X -26 Advanced Taser will cycle for a period of five seconds, but may be turned off sooner as the situation warrants. The X -26 Advance Taser may be cycled again by depressing the trigger if the suspect/subject continues to resist The use of clear, repetitive, verbal commands shall be used in order to attain compliance after the application of the Taser. Officers should move in, restrain and control the suspect/subject as soon as it is safe to do so. 8. The probes should be removed (as training dictates) and considered a biohazard and handled appropriately. This includes the use of gloves and designated biohazard containers. 9. The appropriate first aid shall be given to the persons affected by the Taser. (See medical treatment section) P165.05 Medical Treatment When the Taser has been used on a suspect/subject, officers should seek medical treatment if requested or in obvious need. 2. Medical personnel should remove probes that have penetrated soft tissue areas. • (Face, eyes, neck, groin, and genital areas) 3. An officer /employee of the same sex, when possible, should remove the probes from a suspect/subject when feasible. 4. Basic first aid should be administered to the wound site as soon as possible after control is achieved. (Cleanse and bandaging) P165.06 Safety Considerations The Taser should not be used when the subject is in danger of falling from a significant height. 2. The Taser should not be used when a subject is in water where drowning is a possibility. 3. The Taser should not be used on women known to be pregnant unless other effective means of force have been used with unsuccessful results. 4. Officers are to make every effort to avoid probe placement in soft tissue areas. Soft tissue areas include face, neck, groin, and genital area. g t�) Directive: P165 • Date: 05 -01 -08 5. Officers should not overlook the possibility of injury that may result from falling from a standing position. P165.07 Restricted Uses The Taser should not be used on individuals exhibiting compliant or passive resistive behavior. 2. The Taser should not be used on restrained individuals unless the actions of the subject present an immediate threat of bodily harm to themselves or another person. 3. The Taser should not be used when the presence of flammable gases, fumes, or liquids is known to be present. 4. The Taser shall not be used to harass, taunt, abuse, or coerce subjects /suspects. P165.08 Documentation Officers are required to fully document the use of the Taser in their report and use of force report 2. Officers should photograph the probe impact area and any other injuries sustained • due to the use of the Taser. If the subject/suspect is of the opposite gender, a same gender officer /employee, when possible, should take the photographs if feasible. 3. Officers shall complete a "Use of Taser" report after each incident where the Taser was used against a subject/suspect. 4. Officers shall log the spent cartridge with probes and wires into evidence after each discharge. 5. Officers shall have the deployment information downloaded from theirTaserafter each incident involving deployment as soon as possible. Supervisors or Taser instructors shall be responsible for downloading information. 6. Following each Taser deployment the Chief of Police or his or her designee shall order a sergeant to review why the Taser application was initiated, how the Taser application was supervised and what procedures were utilized during the application. Generally, the sergeant who coordinates the departments Taser program will be the employee directed to conduct this review. This review shall be initiated within 72 hours of the application. • 3 q1!:) CJ Directive: P165 P165.09 Training/ Deployment Date: 05 -01 -08 1.

P230.02 Policy It is the policy of Hutchinson Police Services to apprehend violators of criminal and /or traffic statutes or ordinances. Officers of the Hutchinson Police Services, when using a city owned police squad car, may pursue violators, however, shall exercise reasonable care over the vehicle at all times when operating the vehicle while engaged in a vehicular pursuit. Officers shall, while engaged in a vehicular pursuit, continually evaluate the pursuit and terminate the pursuit when the danger to the general public or the officer outweighs the need for immediate apprehension. P230.03 Caveat Drivers of authorized emergency vehicles while in the performance of their official duties are granted exemptions, by statute, from certain traffic laws. These exemptions are provided to help safeguard lives, not to place them at undue risk. • P230.04 Definitions Pursuit — A multi -stage process by which an officer initiates a motor vehicular stop by giving a visual and / or audible signal to stop and the vehicle operator resists the signal, increases his / her speed, takes evasive action and attempts to elude the officer or refuses to stop the vehicle. Roadblock —The intentional placement of a barrier, (usuallya motor vehicle), in front of, along side of, or behind a fleeing vehicle. The purpose of a roadblock is to channel, divert, direct, impede or terminate the suspect vehicles movement. A roadblock may be moving or stationary. Motor Vehicle — For purposes of this policy "motor vehicle" has the meaning given it in section 169.01, subdivision 3, and includes snowmobiles and off -road recreational vehicles. Emergency Vehicle — A publicly owned police motor vehicle that is authorized, equipped and identified according to Minnesota State statute. Refers to both marked and unmarked police vehicles. Primary Unit — The unit/ officer which is closest to the fleeing motor vehicle. Generally this is the officer who has initiated the pursuit. n LJ 9 ��j Directive: P230 Date: 05 -01 -08 • Secondary Unit(s) — The unit(s) / officer(s) which remain at a safe distance behind or parallel to the primary unit to provide assistance, support and communication. Supervisor The person of rank who is the shift supervisor at the time of the pursuit or the senior officer on duty. Termination — The voluntary or involuntary cessation of movement by the suspect(s) motor vehicle or when the primary unit / officer decides to discontinue the pursuit or when the supervisor determines that the involved units should discontinue the pursuit. P230.05 Initiating a Pursuit Pursuit Justification A. An officer may initiate a pursuit of a motor vehicle containing an individual(s) who the officer believes has violated a state statute or city ordinance, if the vehicle attempts to flee from the officer following the activation of emergency equipment. B. The initial decision to engage in a pursuit shall lie primarily with the officer who has initiated the vehicular slop. 2. Pursuit Considerations Elements to be considered by the primary unit / officer before initiating a pursuit shall include, but are not limited to: A. The nature of the violation preceding the attempt to stop the motor vehicle in question. B. The crime(s) for which the suspect(s) are wanted. C. The other motor vehicle / pedestrian traffic present. D. The area of the pursuit. E. The environmental, weather, road conditions. F. Whether the identity of the suspect(s) is known. 3. Pursuit Standards A.

Only police vehicles with emergency lights and sirens shall be used as pursuit vehicles. C. When police vehicles become involved in a pursuit the officer(s) shall activate the emergency lights and siren and utilize them throughout the duration of the pursuit. D. Generally, a marked squad car equipped with emergency lights and siren shall engage in a pursuit. If an unmarked squad initiates the pursuit the officer driving the unmarked squad should disengage from the. pursuit as soon as a marked squad can assume the primary position. E. Emergency vehicles shall be driven in a safe and lawful mannerand with due regard for public safety. F. The primary unit / officer shall continually consider the risks created by the pursuit as those risks may change during a pursuit. G. There has to be a reasonable expectation of a successful apprehension of the suspects. H. The officer's decision to continue a pursuit may be overridden by a supervisor, or senior officer in the absence of supervisor, at any time. • I. Roadblocks established shall conform to this policy and the Use of Force policy. (See P230.07 and P151). J. Vehicle to vehicle contact shall conform to this policy and the Use of Force policy. (See P230.07 and P151). P230.06 Pursuit 1.

Other police vehicles that are available to assist the primary unit shall not engage in the actual pursuit but shall attempt to take positions that may parallel or provide traffic control or diversion, tire deflating device deployment or approved roadblock assistance. These vehicles shall generally be referred to as backup units. B. One police vehicle may follow the primary unit but not become actively involved in the pursuit. This vehicle is generally referred to as the "secondary unit". This unit / officer shall provide support, assistance and communication. 3. Communication Responsibilities A. Coordinate critical information as timely and accurately as possible. B. Immediately advise the supervisor on duty that a pursuit is in progress. In the absence of a supervisor, the senior officer on duty shall be notified, and shall assume the responsibilities of a shift supervisor for the purposes of the pursuit (G100). C.

Based on the available information, the supervisor shall make the decision to either allow the pursuit to continue or be terminated. D. The supervisor shall manage and have control over the activities of the pursuit. • E. The supervisor has the authority to terminate the pursuit at any time. P230.07 Roadblocks Roadblocks are a means that may, under exceptional circumstances, be utilized to apprehend a fleeing suspect's vehicle. A roadblock may be moving or stationary. The roadblock is a dangerous technique and should only be utilized in situations where there is a clear potential for threat to life or serious injury to others if the suspect is not apprehended. 2. If a stationery roadblock is used, it shall be progressively more restrictive A. Level I: An initial roadblock should involve a squad car in the opposite lane of traffic, parked and angled toward the suspect vehicle with its emergency lights activated. The entire lane of the suspect vehicle shall be kept clear. B. Level II: The next established roadblock might involve two cars parked and angled toward the suspect vehicle. One car is in the lane to the left of the suspect vehicle and the second car is straddling the centerline allowing an escape route on the shoulder of the suspect's lane. The second car may be positioned with its rear towards the suspect vehicle to enable the operator of the car to engage in the pursuit if necessary. • 5 q �02) Directive: P230 Date: 05 -01 -08 is C. Level III: The next roadblock that may be used shall offer no escape route. This roadblock may only be used if the use of deadly force can be justified to protect the lives of officers or civilians. Squad cars may block the entire roadway and shoulder area of the roadway. The establishment of a Level III roadblock shall be approved by the on duty supervisor, or senior officer in their absence, before being established. 3. Whenever a stationery roadblock is utilized, officers are to leave the squad car and position themselves in a manner where they are not going to become Involved in an accident situation should the suspect vehicle collide with the roadblock. 4. A moving roadblock may be utilized by placing a squad car ahead of the suspect vehicle and traveling at same speed. The squad car then decreases speed thereby forcing suspect vehicle to decrease speed. This type of roadblock shall be used only in an area where there is adequate distance to attain suspect vehicles speed and decelerate without danger to the public. Further, if information is available that the suspect(s) are in possession of a firearm(s), this type of roadblock should not be utilized. 5. Intentional police vehicle to suspect vehicle contact is generally prohibited. Intentional contact with a suspect vehicle is permitted only under the following conditions and when the following criteria are met: A. When the purpose of the contact is to "pin' or "box" a suspect vehicle into • another object or suitable terrain so that its movement can be terminated. B. The contact has to be performed at low speeds (under 20 mph). Other considerations are: 1) Suspect vehicle type. Vehicles with short wheelbases or ride high off the ground have a higher probability to roll. 2) The environment (road condition and design, weather condition and terrain). 3) Contact area on the suspect(s) vehicle. (Head -on, driver door and passenger door when someone is present, contact is prohibited). 6. If a roadblock is established, all participating units shall be advised via the communication specialist that a roadblock is being established, what level of a roadblock is being established, and the location of roadblock. The establishment of a roadblock shall follow the following criteria: • A. On a straight stretch of road with maximum visibility allowed for the suspect on his /her approach. 9� Directive: P230 Date: 05 -01 -08 . B. The roadblock should minimally afford 1/4 -mile visibility by the suspect to allow adequate time for him/her to stop. 8. If a participating unit takes it upon himself/herself and establishes a Level III roadblock, without following the aforementioned procedure, the primary unit shall immediately terminate the pursuit. P230.08 Tire Deflating Devices The Stinger Spike system, Model #ZC -1, is a compact, lightweight, 15 1/2 foot long tire deflation device which is used for terminating high speed vehicle pursuits. The Spike System uses a rocking arm action that tilts hollow spikes into a suspect's vehicle's tires at the correct angle for maximum penetration, allowing for a controlled deflation. The device is effective in either direction and at any speed. 1. A Stinger Spike system is stored in the trunks of all of the marked patrol vehicles. 2. Prior to deploying a spike System, officers shall have received training on its use. 3. The use of protective gloves and eyewear are required during the deployment of the spike system. 4. Deployment of the Stinger Spike system is as follows: • A. Officer(s) deploying the spike system should be in position at a predetermined location in sufficient time to allow for proper deployment. B. A deployment plan should provide for close coordination between pursuing unit(s) and the officer(s) deploying the spike system. C. Deploying officer(s) should select a location that allows for maximum visibility to enable him/her to observe the pursuit and other traffic as it approaches. 1) This location should allow the officer(s) to deploy the spike system from a relative position of safety. 2) During deployment, officer(s) should position their squad car to the extreme right side of the roadway opposite of the direction of travel of the pursuit and activate its' emergency lighting system. 3) Whenever possible, other assisting officer(s) should stop or divert any other oncoming traffic from the deployment area. D. The spike system shall be deployed in accordance to the manufacturer's recommendations: 1) Deployment by throwing. • Q Lo� • Directive: P230 2) Deployment by pulling. Date: 05-01 -08 NOTE: The pulling method requires the deploying officer to cross lanes of traffic. E. Once the spike system is in place, all pursing unit(s) shall be notified and everyone at the deployment location should seek a position of safety. 1) Officer(s) are not allowed to return, to remain in, or stand near their squad car following deployment. 2) At no time should anyone have contact with the spike system or its deployment rope while they are being driven over by the fleeing vehicle. F. The deploying officer(s) is /are responsible for securing the spike system immediately after its use. This shall include the recovery or replacement of any detached or lost spike. Maintenance of the spike system for reuse and storage shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's recommendations. 1 7 J G. The Stinger Spike system should not be deployed to stop the following vehicles unless continued movement of the suspect vehicle would result in an increased safety hazard to others: 1) Any vehicle transporting hazardous materials. 2) Any school bus transporting students. 3) Any transit vehicle transporting passengers. 4) Any two wheel vehicles, unless deadly force is justified. P230.08 Terminating a Pursuit Discussion It is recognized that an officer may initiate a pursuit for any violation witnessed, however, the officer shall make the determination as to whether or not the danger of escape outweighs the danger of the pursuit. The officer shall weigh the severity of the offense, the danger posed by the defendant if he /she is not apprehended and the chances of subsequent identification against the risks created by traffic, weather, roadway conditions, the fugitives driving conduct and the condition of the vehicles involved. Terminating a pursuit shall be a decision made in the interest of public safety. n U 0 C ( La)- Directive: P230 Date: 05 -01 -08 • 2. Factors Influencing Termination A. The conditions of the pursuit become too risky for the safe continuation of the pursuit. B. When the suspect is known and could be apprehended later, and to delay apprehension does not create a substantial known risk of injury or death to another. C. When visual contact is lost for a reasonable period of time or the direction of travel cannot be determined. D. If information is communicated that indicates the pursuit is out of compliance with policy. 3. Tactical Considerations after Termination. Once the pursuit has been voluntarily or involuntarily terminated and the involved officers have the suspect(s) and vehicle contained, they should utilize cover and concealment tactics and initiate felony arrest procedures for taking the suspect(s) into custody. Officers should not rush the suspect(s) or vehicle. If it becomes necessary to approach the vehicle, it should be done only after a tactical plan has been developed and any possible crossfire situations have been addressed. At no time should an officer attempt to break out a vehicle's windows with their firearm. . 4. Termination by a Supervisor /Senior Officer In the event a decision is made by the on -duty supervisor /senior officer to terminate a pursuit, all participating units shall immediately drive safely to the side of the road and stop, deactivate all emergency lights and sirens, and advise communications of their termination of the pursuit. Further, if an officer voluntarily terminates a pursuit on their own, the same procedures as listed above shall be followed. P230.10 Inter - Jurisdictional Pursuit When the Hutchinson Police Services is assisting another agency the supervisor on duty shall make the determination if this department shall become involved in the pursuit and whether or not this department shall remain in the pursuit. The supervisor shall determine if the procedures as outlined within this directive are being followed by the agency initiating the pursuit. If the procedures, as outlined in this policy are not being followed, this department shall terminate any participation or assistance in the pursuit of said suspect vehicle. The assisting unit, before leaving its jurisdiction, shall receive approval from the supervisor/ senior officer and shall notify communications. • 01 Directive: P230 Date: 05 -01 -08 n U 3. When applicable, officers should consider the use of the statewide emergency frequency for communication purposes (channel 4 on all department radios). P230.11 Air Support Once contact is made with air support and air support has the suspect vehicle in sight, the primary unit shall reduce the level of pursuit to that of support or other backup unit. P230.12 Care and Consideration of Injured Victims 1. If during a pursuit an officer observes or is made aware of an injury to an individual, the officer shall immediately notify Communications to have the appropriate emergency units dispatched. 2. The primary unit / officer shall be responsible for ensuring that medical assistance is provided to people who may have been injured during the course of a pursuit. The primary unit / officer or supervisor may delegate the responsibility to render that assistance to a specific support or backup unit P230.13 Administrative Procedures Following Pursuit 1. The officer(s) involved in the pursuit shall immediately file a written report indicating the following information: • A. The reason(s) for, and the circumstances surrounding the incident. B.

There are several reasons that make this project worthwhile and necessary including the following: 1. The extension of Momingside Avenue would address local traffic flow and safety issues. 2. City of Hutchinson residents would benefit from an improved route connecting Trunk Highway 22 to Trunk Highway 212. This TH 22/212 alignment has been dedicated as the Inter - Regional Corridor to travel from the metro area to Hutchinson. • 3. A large percentage of McLeod County citizens would have improved access to the growing commercial and industrial areas of the City of Glencoe. 4. This route ultimately may be considered as an alternative to the existing TH 22 corridor that currently transverses through the center of Glencoe. Due to the need to acquire property for this extension of Momingside Avenue, the City of Hutchinson hopes that a federal appropriation can be granted to ensure that a safe and efficient corridor can be established. If you have any questions regarding this letter, feel free to contact Kent Exner at 320.234.4212 or kexner 7a,ci.hutchinson.mn.us . We look forward to working with the City of Glencoe on other projects that have mutual and regional benefit. Sincerely, Steve Cook Mayor cc: Gary Plotz — City Administrator 0 Kent Exner, P.E.
