COMMITTEE
(f) CLAIMS, APPROPRIATIONS AND CONTRACT PAYMENTS
Items 6(a)l, 6(a)2, and 6(a) 3 were pulled.
Motion by Czmowski, second by Arndt, to approve consent agenda with the exception of the items noted
above. Motion carried unanimously.
Item 6(a)1 had further discussion. It was noted that the agenda that had been provided to the Council
Members had numbering errors, and Council Member Christensen did not intend to pull Item 6(a)l.
Motion by Arndt, second by Cook, to approve Item 6(a)1. Motion carried unanimously.
Item 6(a)2 had further discussion.
Council Member Christensen asked the age of the sweeper being traded in and asked if there is a sweeper
that can be more fuel- economic.
John Olson, Public Works Manager, noted that the current sweeper is approximately 10 years old. Mr.
Olson also commented that alternatives were looked at, however, almost all sweepers operate off of diesel
fuel. Mr. Olson also provided information on personnel that will be operating the street sweeper, which will
mainly be seasonal employees. Mr. Olson explained the differences between various types of street
sweepers. Mr. Olson noted that trading in and leasing the proposed street sweeper is approximately $50,000
less than purchasing the same type of street sweeper that the City uses today.
Motion by Czmowski, second by Cook, to approve Item 6(a)2. Motion carried unanimously.
Item 6(a)3 had further discussion.
Jeremy Carter, City Administrator, noted that he had distributed a revised Resolution for the Council to
consider. The proposed Resolution designates $55,000 annually from the City's Refuse fund to the General
Fund to be used for future replacement, treatment and removal of emerald ash borer infested trees. A
spending policy will be put in place to identify the specific activities and expenses eligible for use of these
funds. The Resolution also identifies that the initial funding of the program will be funded by the
discontinuation of the recycling credit program.
Motion by Arndt, second by Yost, to approve Item 6(a)3. Motion carried unanimously.
7. PUBLIC HEARINGS — 6:00 P.M.
(a) CONSIDERATION OF ITEMS FOR INDUSTRIAL BOULEVARD SE RECONSTRUCTION AND
ENERGY PARK BITUMINOUS WEAR COURSE PLACEMENT PROJECTS (LETTING NO. 2,
PROJECT NO. 11 -02 & 11 -03) — ORDERING IMPROVEMENT AND PREPARATION OF PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS
Kent Exner, City Engineer, presented before the Council. Mr. Exner explained that this project consists of
the Industrial Boulevard SE corridor from Michigan Street to the approximate limits of the Energy Park
development. This project will consist of a partial reconstruction of the existing roadway, limited curb and
gutter replacement, limited utility replacements/upgrades, drainage improvements, draintile installation,
signing /striping, street lighting, geogrid placement, landscaping and restoration. The other piece of this
project includes wear course replacement by bituminous surfacing and appurtenances in Energy Park. Mr.
Exner noted that the following items were discussed with the adjacent property owners: stormwater ponding
within the immediate area would be desirable; the belief that particular properties would not benefit from the
proposed assessments; the belief that certain segments of the roadway should be assessed at a reduced rate
due to the variability in the existing condition of the roadway surface and the feeling that properties are
5L )
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES — FEBRUARY 22, 2011
exempt from special assessments due to ownership status.
Mr. Exner explained the proposed assessments on the project, which are estimated at $60 per lineal foot of
the property's roadway frontage Construction is scheduled to begin spring/summer of 2011 and should be
completed within one construction season.
Robert Hantge, 1210 Lewis Avenue, Vice Chair of Hutchinson Utilities Commission, presented before the
Council. Mr. Hantge raised concerns of the City taxing another City entity for assessments. Mr. Hantge
expressed that he and other commissioners felt that PILOT (payment to lieu of taxes) took the place of such
type of assessments. The RUC's assessments are proposed at approximately $84,000 for this project. Mr.
Hantge asked if other entities have been assessed in the past.
Marc Sebora, City Attorney, noted that when Washington Avenue was reconstructed, the Liquor Hutch was
assessed for that project. Mr. Sebora also noted that Hutchinson Area Health Care has been assessed, both
as a public entity and a private entity. The assessments would be in addition to HUC's PILOT.
Michael Kumm, HUC General Manager, presented before the Council. Mr. Kumm noted that in 2005 HUC
was assessed for road work. In 2006, HUC and the City of Hutchinson agreed on the PILOT program. A
joint meeting is being held between HUC and the City Council tomorrow, and this topic will continue to be
discussed.
Motion by Arndt, second by Yost, to close public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
Motion by Arndt, second by Christensen, to approve items for Industrial Boulevard SE reconstruction and
Energy Park bituminous wear course placement projects. Motion carried unanimously.

NO. 6, PROJECT NO. 11 -09) — ORDERING IMPROVEMENT AND PREPARATION OF PLANS AND

the water main lining from 4 Avenue SW Linden Avenue on Main Street/Hwy 15. This project will be bid
cooperatively between the City of Hutchinson, Golden Valley and Fridley due to the expertise needed for
this type of project.
Motion by Arndt, second by Cook, to close public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
Em
Council Member Czmowski asked when Main Street is scheduled for reconstruction. Mr. Exner noted that
Main Street/Hwy 15 is not currently on Mn/DOT's 10 -year plan. There has been discussion of mill and
overlay. Mr. Exner further noted that the City needs to assess their utility needs and communicate that to
Mn/DOT so consideration can be made with the project.

(a) PRESENTATION BY LAUMEYER HUMAN RESOURCES SOLUTIONS ON COMPENSATION PLAN
REPORT AND CONSIDERATION FOR APPROVAL OF ACCEPTING REPORT

compensation study of the City compensation program.
5 �a-)
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES — FEBRUARY 22, 2011
Mr. Laumeyer presented before the Council. Mr. Laumeyer explained the study completed surrounded
around point analysis and an external market study. The City is in a very good position when it comes to
compensation. Mr. Laumeyer and Mr. Brede will continue to work with the City as they complete their work
on the details of the report.
Motion by Christensen, second by Czmowski, to accept compensation plan report as completed by Laumeyer
Human Resources Solutions. Motion carried unanimously.
(b) CONSIDERATION FOR APPROVAL OF 2011 FARMERS' MARKET LOCATION
Miles Seppelt, EDA Director, presented before the Council. Mr. Seppelt explained that the Hutchinson
Downtown Association has studied all options available to hold the Farmers' Market, and the most viable
option recommended by the Downtown Association for 2011 is in its current location, which is I" Avenue
SE between Main Street and Hassan Street. The Downtown Association is continuing to look for a
permanent location. Staff will be more diligent in opening 1 51 Avenue SE when the market is over.
Chief Dan Hatten presented before the Council. Chief Hatten commented that a suggestion was made to
only block off a portion of 1 51 Avenue SE during the market. Chief Hatten noted that there are safety issues
with considering this.
Mayor Cook noted that he surveyed the area today during two different time blocks. He noted that there was
quite a bit of activity on I" Avenue SE, so safety would be an issue with closing off only a portion of the
street. Mayor Cook also noted that there was the same amount of activity on 1 Avenue SW. He iterated
that a permanent location is being looked at, and therefore he suggested setting a timeline to hold the market
on this portion of I" Avenue SE. Council Member Arndt suggested using Library Square. Mayor Cook
noted that last year it was agreed that the 101 Park Place parking lot would be used for the 2011 Farmers'
Market, however the Downtown Association's recommendation is to continue to use 1 Avenue SE.
Judy Kopesky, Crown Financial - 101 Park Place, presented before the Council. Ms. Kopesky raised
concerns with having the Farmers' Market in the same location. Ms. Kopesky spoke about allowing cars to
park on I" Avenue SE until the Farmers' Market opens. Chief Hatten addressed signage issues. Ms.
Kopesky suggested having a larger sign indicating when cars can park on the street.
Bryce Grundahl, Drop -n -Go Shipping — 10 1 Park Place, presented before the Council. Mr. Grundahl asked
if the VFW could be considered again. Mr. Grundahl also raised concerns about the term "too small" and
what is considered too small of a Farmers' Market site.
Tim Rohde, 22759 190 Street, presented before the Council. Mr. Rohde is a vendor with the Farmers'
Market. Mr. Rohde noted that on behalf of the vendors of the Farmers' Market, they are requesting that the
location remain on I" Avenue SE.
Judy Kopesky raised concerns again that last year it was agreed that the Market would be located in the
parking lot of 101 Park Place.
Mayor Cook suggested limiting the size of each vendor's location.
Motion by Czmowski, second by Cook, to approve 2011 and 2012 Farmers' Market location as I" Avenue
SE. Roll call vote was taken: Christensen — nay; Arndt — nay; Yost — nay; Czmowski — aye; Cook — aye.
Motion failed 3 to 2.
Motion by Arndt, second by Yost, to approve 2011 Farmers' Market location as I" Avenue SE. Council
Member Arndt suggested using Library Square for the Farmers' Market, similar to the Arts & Crafts
Festival. Mr. Grundahl asked about the times of the Farmers' Market. Motion carried unanimously.
(c) CONSIDERATION FOR APPROVAL OF RESCINDING POLICE DEPARTMENT FITNESS PROGRAM
— REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAM
-5 Ca—)
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES — FEBRUARY 22, 2011
Jeremy Carter, City Administrator, presented before the Council. Mr. Carter explained that in 2003 the
Council approved a policy providing a partial reimbursement to licensed police officers to assist in defraying
the cost of health club dues. This was adopted due to these positions being required to maintain minimum
physical fitness requirements. A partial reimbursement of $100 annually was approved. Since that time, the
City's health insurance provider has implemented a program reimbursing an employee and one adult
member $20 each monthly. Due to this program, staff is recommending that the police department fitness
program be rescinded.
Motion by Czmowski, second by Arndt, to rescind police department fitness program — reimbursement
program. Motion carried unanimously.
(d) CONSIDERATION FOR APPROVAL OF MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES
GRANT FOR CITY FORESTRY IMPROVEMENTS
Jeremy Carter, City Administrator, presented before the Council. Mr. Carter explained that all grants in
excess of $15,000 require Council approval. John Olson, Public Works Manager, presented before the
Council. The City has been awarded a $25,000 grant from the DNR to plant trees of various species in place
of ash trees, to plant boulevard trees, to diversity species within mono - cultural park areas and to provide
additional public education regarding the potential for a future emerald ash borer infestation. Discussion
was held regarding the use of volunteers for a tree planting program.
Motion by Arndt, second by Yost, to approve DNR grant for City forestry improvements. Motion carried
unanimously.
Discussion was held regarding grant approvals and how those should be approved or recognized by the
Council.
(e) CONSIDERATION FOR APPROVAL OF SETTING COUNCIL WORKSHOP FOR MARCH 22, 2011,
AT 4:00 P.M. TO REVIEW BASIC AND LONG TERM ENDS
Mayor Cook noted the Ends should be updated to reflect those items that have been completed, or to
consider if additions to the Ends need to be made. Mayor Cook mentioned that perhaps some Ends could be
refined. Council Member Arndt questioned the necessity of holding a workshop.
Motion by Czmowski, second by Christensen, to set Council workshop for March 22, 2011, at 4:00 p.m. to
review basic and long term ends. Motion carried unanimously.

Senior Advisory Board Minutes
January 24, 2011
Present: Harriet Sturges, Phyllis Birkholz, Louise Jessen, Cliff Swanson, Carrol Olson
and Randy Bullert
City Staff: September Jacobsen,
Absent: John McRaith, Rick Reiner
I. The meeting was called to order at 10:00 a.m. by Carrol Olson
11. Secretary's Report: The November minutes were examined. Louise made a motion to
approve the minutes and Phyllis seconded the motion. Motion was approved.
11I. Treasurer's Report: Randy reported the current balance of $6,619.34. September
reported to the Board the total of the combined 2010 fundraisers -Card Sales, Dance
Floor rental, China rental, Tax donations, chair cover rental, dish clothes, cassette
sales, pool concession and donations totaled $7484.02 (this total also includes funds
from tours that are directly deposited into the Senior City Budget). Harriet made a
motion to accept the report with a second from Cliff. The motion passed.
IV. Old Business
Tours- Julie reviewed the Crown College tour. Everything went well on the
Crown College tour and the group was even given an additional fee reduction.
Julie informed the board of upcoming tours: Old Log, New Prague and the
Wonderettes, Buddy Holly, and in June try to do a cruise, July possibly a winery,
and then the State Fair. Discussed the possibility of going to a Lynx Game
however the Board felt there was not enough interest.
Update on Programs- Thank you to Carrol Olson, Harriet Sturges and Rick
Reiner for agreeing to serve another term. The 3` Annual New Year's Eve party
was a success, the Travel at a Glance videos are a favorite and card players are
making adjustments for the closing of Fridays. Dinner dance was not well
attended but those that were there had a great time. The Movie Charlie St Cloud
was well attended. The knitters are not making military hats any longer but have
started making fingerless mittens to sell. The quilt that has been worked on in
2010 is complete and will be hung for display. September presented to the Board
the new activity calendar that absorbs the Friday activities into the other days.
Board discussed what the actual savings for closing on Fridays is for the City.
The Board mentioned that they would like to have Dolf Moon attend a meeting.
September will follow up by contacting Mr. Moon.
The email list for the Newsletter is well over 150 people. The Board discussed
the possibility of charging or asking for a donation for the email version. This
idea was tabled until next meeting.
Crosswalk - The Senior Board requested that a crosswalk be painted near the
entrance to the Center. September will follow up on this request. — REQUEST
was submitted and staff was informed that since it is not a street there was nothing
that can be done to enforce the markings.
V. New Business
• Senior programming was donated $1,000 by an undetermined donor.
September purchased a lap top and will look to replace the existing
refrigerator with portions of this donation.
VI. Adjournment: Randy made a motion to adjourn at 10:45am with a second from Cliff.
The motion passed.
Next Meeting: Monday, February 28th at 10:00 a.m.
September Jacobsen, Substitue Secretary I ��

To: Citizens of the Hutchinson Fire District, Mayors, City Councils, and Town Board Supervisors
From Brad Emans, Fire Chief
Date: 03/01/2011
Re: Monthly Update on Activities of the Hutchinson Fire Department for February 2011
Fire Department Response: The Fire Department responded to 35 calls for service in the month of
February.
Fire Officer Only Response: A "fire officer only' responded to 9 calls in February saving the
Hutchinson Fire District the cost of a "general" alarm estimated at $1,638.00 for the month.
Response Time (First Emergency Vehicle Out of the Door): February — 6 minutes 09 seconds.
Example of a Few of the Calls:
• The FD responded to a bam fire in the rural fire district. Unfortunately, the dispatcher in a different
county notified the wrong fire department, and then that fire department failed to notify Hutchinson
that they were operating out of their fire district. These unfortunate errors caused a delay in
response to the scene, thus the bam and the cattle inside perished;
• The FD responded to a fire alarm on the third floor of one of our large apartment buildings, the
building was evacuated and the building was checked out with the aid of Thermal Image Camera's;
• The FD responded to a manufactured home fire in the northwest part of the city. Upon arrival light
to moderate smoke was encountered. Firefighters using a Thermal Imaging Camera was able to
locate two separate areas that were causing the smoke;
• The FD responded to a call of a heavy smell of natural gas in the area of the strip mall in the
southem part of the city. With the assistance of the gas company we were able to locate three gas
lines that had been sheared off on the roof due to an ice shift;
• The FD responded to a load of recycled paper on fire in a garbage truck. Fortunately the driver
noticed the fire and dumped the bad before it destroyed the truck. Upon investigation, the most
likely cause was hot ashes placed in a recycle container,
• The FD responded to a two vehicle crash in the south part of the city where firefighters had to
extricate one person from the rolled vehicle;
• The FD responded to a call of natural gas leaking from the ground in the downtown area, the area
was searched and nothing was found. The most likely cause of the odor was one of our industries
cleaning their production containers;
1
• The FD responded to two vehicle rollovers in the same location in the rural fire district less than one
hour apart, fortunately the occupants suffered only minor injuries;
The FD responded to a one vehicle rollover in the rural fire district where the passenger was
ejected from the vehicle.

apartment building common areas is now complete; the apartment units are already scheduled for
the entire year and will start in early spring.
