Members present were Chairman Doug McGraw, James Hanson, Doug Hedin, as well as Administrative Assistant Plotz. 1. Chairman McGraw reported receiving the required three letters of justification from airport users for submission to obtaining an instrument approach landing. Administrative Assistant Plotz will be sending letteri to the Division of Aer- onautics, State Department of Transportation. 2. Chairman McGraw reported that Dean Nelson received a proposal for the construc- tion of a six -stall hangar from Menard Buildings, St. Cloud, in the amount of $48,400. The buijding proposed would have wooden framing, supports and stringers. The outside shell would be steel. The price includes a finished ceiling, con- crete floor and footings, and electric doors. The Administrative Assistant requested a memo of possible commitments to rent the six hangar stalls. The following individuals have expressed interest to the Airport Commission members: Ward Martens Ardis Horberstein Richard G. Anderson Robert Kaiser Dean Nelson Leo Lamecker John Miller It was suggested that a letter of interest in renting such facilities should be received by the City to justify the need to both the City Council and the State funding agency. Chairman McGraw reported that the State funding agency would pay the front-end costs plus interest, with rents to pay the principal. Members of the Commission thought that the individual should be informed in advance that the rent would be approximately $45 per month. Gary Plotz was requested to inform the six individuals of the approximate rent and request a statement of intention to rent, if constructed. It was pointed out that the 10 closed hangars are filled, and also the 10 open hangars are occupied. 3. Administrative Assistant Plotz reported that the Raske Building, Inc. of Cosmos has the material at the Airport to repair the hangar doors. Raske suggested to wait until after the spring thraw to repair the door$. The Commission mem- bers felt it would be more advantageous to begin the work now if the rubber Airport Commission March 15, 1978 flaps were long enough. Mr. Plotz reported he would contact Raske to begin the hangar doors immediately. 4. Airport Commission members expressed interest in other projects for the future. These include visual landing lights (VASI), example is Le Sueur airport, for a field slope approach; and a low cost monitor for the airport crash alert system (estimated purchase price $40 to $50). There was also discussion of relocat- ing existing, and installing new, tie -downs, possibly at the north end of the shop. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

Due to an error made on the notice sent to surrounding property owners where the date was given as March 31 instead of March 21, no one was in attendance at the Planning Commission's public hearing. After consulting with the City Attorney, Milton Schantzen, I was informed that the Planning Commission and City Council action is not valid until the variance is again processed through the Planning Commission and the owners receive proper notice. We, therefore, recommend that the entire process be started again to facili- tate all people being heard at a public hearing.

The recommendation of the committee is to select Option 5 (see attached). Contributions would be at a rate of $3.00 per month/fireman x service to a maximum of 40 years, with a retirement age change from 55 to 50 years. It was determined that the annual reimbursement through the State ($14,700), plus our present City budget figure ($2,800) totaling $17,500, already -pro- vides sufficient revenues to fully fund Option 5. /ms r/, -, - - 1, ff -. r Hewitt Associates February 28, 1978 Mr. Roger Bluhn Hutchinson Firemen's Relief Association 570 Miller Avenue Hutchinson, Minnesota 55350 Dear Mr. Bluhn: Enclosed are the January 1, 1977 actuarial costs you requested for the Hutchinson Fire Department Relief Association. Also shown are the costs of the four alternative plans: Option I: current plan of $2 per month times service to a maximum of 30 years. A6o%a Option II: $2 per month times service to a maximum of 40 years. e-'O//,o, Option III: $3 per month times service to a maximum of 30 years. ,0 q0 Option IV: $3 per month times service to.a maximum of 40 years, 4 Option V: The retirement age was changed from 55 to 50 and the assumed retirement age was changed from 56 to 51. A $3 per -month times service benefit was valued. With the younger retire- ment age assumed, service at retirement never went over 30 years. Therefore, a plan with a maximum of 30 years or 40 years and an assumed retirement age of 51 would be identical. Only active members were included in any benefit changes. The additional costs to include current retirees and deferred members in the benefit changes are shown separately. - If you have any questions, let me know. We will not continue with the valuation until we hear from you. Sincerely, HEWITT ASSOCIATES Kenneth W.

Hazel,Base- man has remembered those contacts and has decided to give the City the first opportunity to purchase her home (second house behind City Hall). Hazel is willing to sell the property for $40,000, pursuant to her appraisal (see attached). At the same time, the City has received their own appraisal that is relatively close (see attached). She has indicated she would feel comfortable with a contract -for -deed if she received 20% down ($8,000) with a balance on a 5-8 year payment schedule. If such an arrangement was agree- able, the contract details would be worked out with Buzz Schantzen and myself. There is a possibility that the City may through State Statute be required to pay some relocation benefits to Hazel; however, it would appear this would be a minimal expense. In addition to Hazel's living quarters, there are two apartments that are now occupied and rented within the home. We would foresee that the City would continue to rent to these people until such time they would move or the City would have a re -use for the property. In the long-range concept, the west half of the City Hall block was possible parking. Hazel Baseman intends to move into a retirement home within the Twin Cities as of June 1, 1978. /ms 293031-�2� N l►�� R 1978 m N REc � OV AP 9: 730 He rmony Lane Hutc"-,inson, :"n. 55350 lir rch 31, 1978 P:r.

The purchase, I assume, would be handled through the General Fund. The down payment of $8,000 would come from the Contingency Fund dollars of this year's budget (approximately $62,000 would remain of the non -designated dollars). In the following year, provision would be made in the budget to pay this amount. The dollars would be outside the levy limit the State sets for the City of Hutchinson and would not interfere with the General Fund budget. /ms TO: FROM: POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM Citv Council and Mayor Black SUBJECT: Dean M.

Merrill, City Accountant -------------------------------- SUBJECT: Purchase of Christmas Decorations The Chamber of Commerce has turned over to the City $3,000 which is for the initial payment on new Christmas decorations. The remaining balance is $6,900, due after receipt of the merchandise. In the 1978 budget we have $2,000 set aside for Christmas decorations. In the past the Chamber has financed the balance, repaying the loan over a set period of time. If the Council wished, they could pay the additional $4,900 this year, and then choose one of the following procedures in the third year after the $4,900 would normally have been paid out. One method would be to set up a reserve of dollars; the Council would budget each year until decorations were again needed. There would be no actual transfer of cash but a reserve on the balance sheet would be set up for this purpose. Another method would involve creating a separate savings account and placing the dollars in this account each year, allowing the interest earned to also go toward the purchase of new decorations. A third method would be to budget the total dollars only when needed in the year the decorations are to be purchased. /ms (612) 879-2311 CITY OF HUTCHINSON 37 WASHINGTON AVENUE WEST HUTCHINSON, MINN. 55350 April 11, 1978 TO: City Council FROM: Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Aerial Bucket for Park Department The specifications have been completed and if approved, I recommend a calling for bids at 2:00 P.M. on May 9, 1978.

The reason being to house temporary office facilities until a proper office building can be found and or a new office can be built. Texgas is currently in negotiation with Burlington Northern, St. Paul, to acquire properties to the south of their property located at the corner of 4th Ave. S.E. and Huron St. We are now renting part of the properties in question for storage of our bulk tanks so we cannot see any problem in acquiring the entire plot of ground. If for some reason we cannot build a new office, we will be looking for a building where we can have both office and display area. The mobile home we have in mind is approximately 10 x 45 which will be rented from a local trailer sales. Our intention is to set the mobile home just to the west of our plant warehouse bordering Huron St. Texgas lost their lease at their present location at 25 N. Main because of deteriorating conditions of the building, could not come to agreement in a renewal of a new lease. We feel a temporary office of this nature will be needed to house our office staff and equipment until a permanent location can be found.

In the agree- ment signed with Region 6E this type of cost should be covered by the City. The problem comes with the fact that when the budget was prepared there was no consultation with the library board and there is only $250 in the budget for the repair and maintenance (contracting) in this years budget. The dollars to cover this will have to be made up from the contingency dollars of the general fund. In the next budget preparation we will consult the library board for their input to the budget. We will also ask the board to review with the Council before work is undertaken to assure the dollars are available in the budget.

The recreation department budget was set as follows for the year 1978: Labor costs (umpires, scorekeepers, etc.) Women Slow Pitch $441 Men's Fast Pitch 900 Men's Slow Pitch 1500 Supply Costs (Balls, bases, etc.) 2035 TOTAL COST $4876 Revenue estimates were made as follows Event Est. Revenue Per Team Women Slow Pitch $143 Men's Fast Pitch 155 Men's Slow Pitch 160 Est. # Teams Total 5 $ 715 10 1550 14 2240 TOTAL $4505 As one can see the estimated revenues do not cover all the estimated costs of the program as shown. It should also be pointed out the labor costs do NOT include the labor of the recreation director, assistant director, or secretary. The cost of field maintenance and improvements, lights for the field and cost of electricity are NOT shown and are presently being absorbed by the park department budget. In conclusion, the total revenue of the softball program even with an increase in fees still does not cover the cost incurred by the City for the program, even with the addition of a participant fee.
