The regular meeting of the City Council was called to order by Mayor Walsh,
all members were present. Others attending the meeting include D. Berning,
M. andrews, G. Meyer, T. Ruhn and B. Johnson.
The minutes of the November 4th regular meeting and the November 12 special
meeting were read. On a motion by D. Corelius and a second by D. Vetsch
the minutes were accepted. All were in favor.
Mr. Larry Kunkel, President and two other representatives from Hordis
Brothers were present. Mr. Kunkel updated the Council on the new tempering
equipment that was recently installed and has agreed to forward the City a
letter regarding the test results on noise levels which is suppose to be
completed in the next couple weeks.
Mr. Kunkel also informed the Council that all burning has stopped on their
property and that the burner is to be dismantled within two.weeks. Hordis
has made arrangements that all the extra wood is to be hauled away.
In addition, Hordis Brothers has budgeted $20,000.00 for landscaping around
their property. This work is expected to be done next summer. Hordis has
projected a 7°0' increase for the upcoming year and have added 3 new product
lines, any new expansion will be done with advance notice to the City.
There was also some questions about the loud music at night and Mr. Kunkel
informed the Council that all radios have been banned from the building.
The company now has music piped in and is able to control the noise level.
Mrs. Arlyn Nelson, Wright County Commissioner, was present to discuss
a couple of areas of interest that as a Commissioner she feels are important.
Her first concern is with the contracting service for the Sheriff's
Department. She feels that there is not an accurate account for how the
Sheriff's budget is being spent and feels that the Commissioners need
to review the service and accounting system.
The second area of interest that she discussed was the Waste Management
Task Force's Solid Waste Management Plan and what potential outcomes may
evolve from the study. The City asked to be kept informed on the project
and has expressed our interest in becoming involved if possible. Mrs.
Nelson has agreed to forward along information to the City to keep us
in touch with what the County Commission is involved with.
.-. At 8:00 bids were reviewed for 1986 Insurance Coverage. There were two
responses recieved both from A. Middleton. The record should note that
the advertisement for bid was published in the Crow River News on November
5th.

of the township that the City covers. The bouard was given a breakdown

this type of document for them each year. The City of Albertville agreed
to prepare the information as soon as we prepare our budget.

problem they have had in the past. The company has decided to use a
