COUNCIL MINUTES
FEBRUARY 28, 1984
5. PUBLIC HEARING - 8:00 P.M.
(a) PROPOSED RECONSTRUCTION OF T.H. 7 FROM FIFTH AVENUE NE TO EAST CITY LIMITS
Mr. Gene Setrum from the Minnesota Department of Transportation presented
a preliminary plan of the proposed project for Highway 7 East which would
be done in 1985. The estimated cost was $650 - 700,000, with the City pay-
ing 60% and the State 40 %. He stated the purpose of the project was to
reduce speed and improve drainage in the area.
Several businessmen who have businesses located on Highway 7 East expressed
opposition to the project. They questioned how speed would be reduced by
reconstructing the road. It was felt that there was no problem with drain-
age, and..the road only needed to be resurfaced. The main objection to the
project was the time involved when the highway would be closed off, which
would hurt their business.
Following lengthy discussion, the motion was made by Alderman Torgerson
to close the hearing at 8:40 P.M. Motion seconded by Alderman Mlinar and
carried unanimously.
Alderman Carls moved to approve the Minnesota Department of Transportation
to proceed with the study for the improvement of T.H. 7 East and to waive
reading and adopt Resolution No. 7665. Alderman Torgerson seconded the
motion, and it unanimously carried.

PROVIDING OFF STREET PARKING UNDER THE CITY'S ZONING ORDINANCE FOR A

ing on the corner of Hassan Street and First Avenue Southeast. He re-
quested the City to include this property into the downtown parking assess-
ment district.
City Administrator Plotz explained the formula and policy used to assess
the downtown parking district. He stated the area could be enlarged by
authorizing the City Attorney to prepare a resolution and /or ordinance
which would allow the inclusion in the district and enlarge the assessment
district to accommodate the project.
It was moved by Alderman Mlinar to approve the policy and refer it to the
City Attorney to draw up a resolution and /or ordinance to enforce it. Mo-
tion seconded by Alderman Torgerson and carried, with Alderman Mikulecky

mously carried.
(b) CONSIDERATION OF RECOMMENDATION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES TASK FORCE
Chairman Dick Burgart presented a final report on the activities of the
Public Facilities Task Force. He stated that trying to prioritize six
different items was next to impossible, and no one item had top priority.
Therefore, the committee was divided into two sub - committees. Some of
the items were logical conclusions as a result of their study.
Mr. Donn Hoffman, Chairman of the Recreation Sub - Committee, summarized
the committee's meetings and motions made. He stated the recreation fa-
cility issue was approached from the viewpoint of "what would serve the
most purposes and what are the greatest needs ?" The civic arena site
was chosen for a location of the facility. Korngiebel Architects was

COUNCIL MINUTES
FEBRUARY 28, 1984
asked to prepare a preliminary plan, and it was the recommendation of the
sub - committee to include segments A and B of the plan in the new struc-
ture. The approximate cost would be $1,000,000 to $1,300,000, less avail-
able city funds. The proposed facility would be presented to the public
as a bond issue. The inclusion of a swimming pool would be an additional
$600,000.
Mr. Chad Piehl, Chairman of the Public Buildings Sub - Committee, gave a re-
port regarding the library, police station, old fire hall, city hall, and
city property.
It was the conclusion of the sub - committee that the Library Board had
done a thorough study, and the outcome would be determined by a referendum.
Several possibilities were considered for the police station. The sub-
committee decided the best alternative was to utilize the old fire hall
and build onto it. The estimated cost was $400 - 500,000 for the building,
without land acquisition. It was felt that the police department should
remain downtown.
Mr. Piehl reported that City Hall was poorly designed for its present use.
It was the sub - committee's recommendation to renovate the building, start-
ing with the ventilation system and roof repair, do an energy upgrade and
long -term maintenance.
Regarding city -owned property, the sub - committee recommended selling it
and putting the money into the city funds.
Mayor Stearns commented that he hoped the Council would take these reports
into consideration for future action.
Alderman Carls directed the City Administrator to send a letter of appre-
ciation to the members of the Public Facilities Task Force for the work
they have done.
(c) CONSIDERATION OF REFUNDING 1981 PARKING BONDS AND REFUNDING 1980 TAX
INCREMENT BOND ISSUE (EVERGREEN APTS. & MISCELLANEOUS) AND REFUNDING
S &L TAX INCREMENT BONDS
Mr. Bill Fahey of Ehlers & Associates informed the City Council how the
City could save money by refunding the parking improvement bonds and the
tax increment bonds of 1980 and adjusting the maturity schedule. Two reso-
lutions were presented for adoption. The first one, Resolution No. 7666,
would repeal Resolution No. 7644 adopted January 24, 1984, and provide for
the public sale of $1,050,000 general obligation improvement bonds of 1984;
$750,000 general obligation library bonds of 1984, and $765,000 general
obligation parking improvement refunding bonds of 1984. Resolution No.
7667 related to the $600,000 general obligation tax increment refunding
bonds of 1984 and public sale. The bids for the aforementioned would be
opened on April 10, 1984 at 11:30 A.M.

beer supply will deliver the cooler from St. Paul at a charge of $1.70 per
100 pounds. The cooler weighs 682 pounds.
The motion was made by Alderman Carls to approve the purchase of the
cooler for the lower price. Motion seconded by Alderman Torgerson and
approved unanimously.

the liquor store. Alderman Mlinar commented that a City employee was cap-
able of doing the remodeling work and cut the cost.

tion Department employee(s) be authorized to do the remodeling project at
the liquor store. Alderman Mlinar seconded the motion. The motion was

10. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) COMMUNICATIONS FROM CITY ADMINISTRATOR
City Administrator Plotz commented on the three resolutions adopted by
the City Council regarding the South Grade Road area. The State Depart-
ment had reviewed the resolutions, and the only one accepted was for a
stop light. The State would provide all the hardware for the lights and
the City would provide four wood poles and labor. The suspended temporary
lights would be installed in May or June with authorization from the Coun-
cil.
After discussion, the motion was made by Alderman Carls to proceed with
the next step and have a contract drawn up with the State for the tempor-
ary signal lights. Motion seconded by Alderman Mlinar and approved unani-
mously.
The Council was reminded of a workshop to be held March 1, 1984 at 5:30 P.M.
in the fire station conference room, at which time tax increment financing
would be discussed with the Community Development Corporation members.
Later that same evening another meeting with the Community Development Cor-
poration and Main Street businessmen will be held at LeBistro Cafe. Since
sprinkling has been a high priority, Mr. Plotz requested the Fire Marshal
to be present for a presentation.
Administrator Plotz suggested another Council workshop be scheduled to
meet with the HRA and LeBistro's management to further discuss their re-
quest for a wine license. It was the consensus of the Council to schedule
a workshop for March 15, 1984 at 5:15 P.M. in the fire station conference
room.

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GARY PLOTZ, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
RE: EMPLOYEE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN - ICMA
For a number of years, City employees have had the option
of making contributions to any of three (3) deferred com-
pensation plans. One of these plans is the ICMA (International
City Managers Association) Retirement Corporation. Plan.
Recently, ICMA has requested that participating employers
amend their plan documents due to a change in federal regulations
and to provide for their future involvement in the
election of retirement plan trustees. This revision of the
plan document will be needed to continue our long term
participation in the deferred compensation plan.
The amendment of the deferred compensation plan is accomplished
by a Resolution of the City Council. Accordingly, it is
requested that Resolution No. 7668 Adopting the Amended ICMA
Deferred Compensation Plan be approved.
ICMA Retirement Corporation
Summary of Changes for Plans Administered by
i °he ECMA Retirement Corporation
Recent changes in federal regulations concerning public
deferred compensation plans make it necessary for nearly
all plans to be amended. Accordingly, we are offering
a revision of the deferred compensation plan we admin-
ister for your employees on your behalf. Also, we have
taken this opportunity to make other desirable changes
in our administrative arrangements which we believe will
further enhance the quality of our program by increasing
your ability to directly influence our activities and pohcies.
These changes are reflected in the three documents which
are enclosed. We ask that you obtain a resolution of your
_ governing body adopting these documents. A suggested
resolution is enclosed for your convenience. The docu-
ments are as follows:
A new deferred compensation plan document whieh
amends and restates the existing plan. This plan has
been prepared in light of new Internal Revenue Ser-
vice regulations, was submitted to the IRS, and has
received its approval. The basic philosophy of plan
design has been to provide a plan as liberal as the law
and regulations will allow.
The existing plan provides for amendment upon our
proposal with such amendment to become effective
within 60 days unless you object in writing. Accord-
ingly, you should regard this as formal notice of plan
amendment. While governing body action is not re-
quired for plan amendments, we recommend that you
formally adopt the new plan in conjunction with the
other documents.
2. A Declaration of Trust for the ICNIA Retirement
Trust. This is a new feature of our organizational
structure. We currently have a direct Retirement Trust
relationship with you which will continue. The new
trust establishes a Board of Trustees to be selected by
participating employees, thus giving the employers
ultimate control over the management of the funds.
Included in the trustees' responsibilities are oversight
of our performance, appointment of auditors, and
monitoring of investment goals and objectives.
The new trust air anLement has been submined to the
Securities and Exchange Commission for its review.
As you may know, unlike the IRS, the SEC does not
approve transactions but indicates whether or not it will
Take action against you if a transaction is carried out.
The SEC has given us a "no- action" letter with respect
to the Retirement Trust's compliance with the registra-
tion provisions of the federal securities laws.
The Retirement Trust has been created by a Founders
Committee of persons representative of the participants
in the RC program. They have determined that the first
elections shall be held in the early fall of 1983,
preferably September. We will need copies of your
governing body's resolution if you are to vote in the
first election or for any of your employees to be
nominated as trustees.
It is expected that all investments made on your behalf
will be held under the ICMA Retirement Trust after
it becomes effective. However, it is also expected that,
unless an employer adopts the Declaration of Trust,
its investments will not be held thereunder following
< a transitional period. Therefore, while failure to adopt—
'-the Declaration of Trust will not directly affect your
plan or have any immediate effect on the investment
of your funds, it is required for vour full and continu-
ing participation in t Q _ =remeent Trust.
3. An amended version of }'our existing trust agree-
ment. The amendments are intended to clarify this
a.reement and conform it to the new plan document.
These changes improve and enhance the program. The
addition of the ICNLA Retirement Trust is done in the spirit
of our long-standing objective of serving the best interests
of our participants. In the event you feel a need for addi-
tional information, please feel free to call our office toll -
free at (800) 424 -9249. As always, we are prepared to
assist you.

Re: Lorraine Meyer
c�
c
v' {�
FOR YOUR INFOR�v' 0ON
On behalf of Lorraine Meyer, I objected to special assessment
roll #186 because of the manner in which and the circumstances
under which the assessment was adopted. Also, it was our
belief that at the time we filed the appeal that the assessment
was excessive in light of the benefit or benefits derived. Now
the city has recinded the fire resolution adopting the assessment
which I belief then puts us back to square one. Under the
circumstances, I believe Lorraine has the option of going ahead
on her own or waiting until the city develops a comprehensive
plan for other affected property owners. To simply take the
position that she now has no option is not realistic in that
it is the responsibility of the city to provide services to
affected property owners. To force Lorraine to go ahead and
provide service from the main to her building at her sole expense
on a franchise basis would be selective and'discriminatory as
applied to Lorraine.
At this point it seems that the appropriate solution would be
for the city to continue to extend a temporary certificate of
occupancy to Lorraine and for the city to continue to develop
an overall plan as to how the city is going to deliver service
to properties that must be sprinkled and once that plan is
Mr. Robert Stearns, Mayor

developed, the affected property owners can then make a legitimate
business decision as to how they want to proceed.
Cordially,

Sue Nelson /Ulrich moved to approve the corrected financial report. Carried.
The resignation of the Glencoe librarian, Ms. Shirley Chapman, is effactiue May 1, 1954.
The annual summary of circulation statistics for the Pioneerland Library System showed
the total circulation for 1953 as 630,664 compared with 70351412 for 1952. Newspaper
clippings and the Public Library Newsletter were circulated. Kathy Matson reported
that the book sale at the Willmar Library January 19 -21 netted $386.25.
Committee Reports:
a. The Long Range Planning- Cormiittee, chaired by Kathy Matson, will consider any
suggestions made by board members.
b. 5A34I3 update - -The Governing Board is meeting at Ila -shall February 14. The Plum
Creek Library System board has proposed closing the SAI- II,IIFs office during the months
of July and August - -the boesd members have expressed concern over the apparent lack
of productive activity during those months. The Pioneerland Library System board has
voted to continue the 12 -month operation of SAIAffB. Bob Boese suggested that the
Director make appointments to the Advisory Committee. The present policy is election
by system librarians. Barker/Horrocks moved that the Director make all appointments
to tha Advisory Committee. Carried.
Communications:
a. Library Development Services -- In 1933 library trustees were limited to three
consecutive terms. Pending legislation would remove this limitation and would allow
city libraries to appoint trustees from the service area rather than the geographical
city limits. Thee measures are opposed by the library directors. The federal
highway departmert has not approved the placement of library directional signs on
.federal highways. A proposal to amend and extend LSCA funds passed the House by a
vote of 357 -39.
b. Report on recent and upcomin�g� meetings:
1. The Minnesota Library nM' zixle°2ra lobbyist, Sandra Hustad, who attended the meeting
of the library directors in January.
2. Mr. Sundberg reported on the January meeting of the library directors in January.
Pending public library legislation includes mandating library services in all counties
of Minnesota, possible funding for state library construction, and eliminating the
present 10% limitation on raises in funding for counties not meeting the minimum level
per capita. Library directors want the Library Development Services to specify what
can be eliminated in maintenance of effort on the local level- -local units are concerned
about possible raises in requirements. The directors expressed concern about the
multi -type libraries citing lack of support in some areas of the state. The library
in Sauk Centre mailed questionnaires to libraries not affiliated with regional library
systems; the Benson Library developed its own questionnaire in response to this. funds
3. A meeting will be held February 16 and 17 to discuss the dividing of state and federal^
among the regional library systems in Minnesota, Bob Bosse feels the present formula
favors rural library systems. Pioneerland Library System could lose funds under a
formula change.
$, Reciprocal borrowing contracts have been signed with Grant County, South Dakota, and
Carver County.
S. I-+SLL Day will be March 13 in St. Paul. Library representatives will discuss library
issues with their district legislators.
¢. Mr. Sundberg met with the Meeker County Commissioners to discuss the 1934 budget
request. No vote was taken but approval of funds beyond maintenance of effort seems
unlikely. The commissioners feel that Meeker County residents do not need bookmobile
service, and that the establishment of a branch library at Watkins would provide
adequate service for the county. Formal announcement of the final decision will be
made later.
Unfinished business -- Umbrella insurance with $1,000,000 coverage and minimum liability
of $300,000 will cost $275 a year. This is in addition to the insurance coverage
approved in January. After discussion, Hebrink/Boehlke moved to accept the policy.
Carried.
New Business:
a. Personnel policy manual -- Lundstrom/Buhr moved to approve the addition of
Sections 8.2 -8.6 concerning Due Process. Carried.
b. Bob Boese explained the need for the purchase of an IBM minicomputer to be used
to access cataloging data oase from the Montevideo Library. The total estimated cost
is $6,000. The budget for equipment is $9,000. Concern was expressed about spending
i
aymajor share of this bud item this early in the fiscalf#,ar. Gulstad /Sue Nelson
moved to approve the purchase of the minicomputer. Carried.
c. The bookmobile motor has about 200,000 miles on it. The Crow River Regional
Library Board had approved the installation of a new motor when it was needed. This
board should vote on it also. The purchase would be covered by contingency and
amortization funds. Board manbars received information sheets listing bids of two
companies for the installation of a new motor.
Mileage reports for February were filed.
The meeting was adjournad at 9 =50 p.m.
