DISUSSION
The Ad -Hoc Committee gave an update on the interim administrator and permanent
administrator options they have been discussing. The Committee commented that currently there
are two scenarios regarding the position of interim administrator. Under the first scenario, an
interim administrator would be brought in and a professional search firm would be utilized to
recruit the permanent administrator. Scenario two would also include an interim administrator,
but the role of the interim administrator would include mentoring Adam Nafstad to take over the
administrator position and provide a dual administrator/engineer role.
It is the Committee's recommendation that the interim position be pursued and filled as soon as
possible. The committee mentioned that they also have proposals in hand from two firms to
assist in the search process if desired by Council.
The Committee commented that several individuals were contacted regarding the interim
position and ultimately they chose to meet with Mr. Thistle concerning the role. Mr. Thistle was
introduced to all in attendance as the Committee's recommended candidate for the interim
administrator. Mr. Thistle gave a brief synopsis of his career and experience and also mentioned
that he is not seeking a long term position. Mr. Thistle commented on both scenarios proposed
by the Committee, and with the support of the Council, felt that either scenario could be
implemented successfully. Under either scenario, five to seven months was believed to be
necessary to fill the permanent position.
Mike Couri provided discussion on how Mr. Thistle would be a consultant and not a city
employee and recommended that whatever the Council decision may be in terms of the
permanent position, it be a unanimous decision. Mr. Couri also recommended that the Council
choose a preferred scenario or path for filling the permanent position prior to engaging an

interim administrator so that person has a clear understanding and direction as to what the role
entails.
Mr. Thistle commented on moving forward and provided recommendations for goal setting and
council direction to staff. Mr. Thistle also commented on the need for the Council to identify
and decide on what they are looking for in the permanent position. Some other items discussed
in general were communication, tools of communication, regaining of trust, and personnel
management. The role of the interim position was also discussed and the discussion included
city services, council communications, staff management, transition management, goal setting,
budget assistance, and mentoring.
The option of using a combination of scenario one and two was also discussed. As such, a
search firm would be initially used for developing the needs, goals and rolls for the next person
to fill that position. Then once the job description is determined by the Council the next decision
would be either use search firms to find candidates or offer the position internally. It was
believed that this option would take a minimum of five to seven months as well.
Adam Nafstad shared his interest in the position but also shared concerns regarding controversy
and the desire to maintain the role of City Engineer. The dual role position was discussed and
Nafstad felt that there would be a cost savings and economical advantages to the dual role
position. Nafstad also shared that the decision for a permanent administrator should not be based
on cost savings alone and more so on the goals and desires of the Council for that position.
Nafstad also mentioned that there had been discussions regarding the use of the St. Michael
Administrator Bob Derus as a consultant for the interim position. Given the timing of Mr.
Derus' upcoming retirement, his extensive qualifications and knowledge of the region, this was
presented as another option the Committee could pursue if desired by Council.
Discussions concerning economic development and the expectations of the Council were also
had, along with defining the desired form of management were also had. It was desired that these
discussions continue with the full Council present.
Attorney Couri and Mr. Thistle were directed to work together and develop a draft contract for
further consideration.

ARTICLE II - DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
SECTION 2.01 OVERVIEW
The City established Municipal Development District No. 1. and the related Development
Program as a tool to achieve the objectives described in Section 2.02. Development District No.
1 was .first approved. in April, 1981., and. has been. modified subsequently. The Development
District serves as the "project area" for tax increment financing districts established within its
boundaries. The Development Program describes the City's objectives for the development of
this area and the use of tax increment financing.
Current modifications to the Development Program include budget revisions to coincide with
the Finance .Plan. relating to Economic Development Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District No.
14.
This modified Development Program is intended to restate and expand on the original program
and all prior amendments hereto, which are incorporated herein by reference. Nothing in
this modification is intended to supersede or alter the activities described in the original.
Development Program.
SECTION 2.02 STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES
The modifications of the Development District in the City pursuant to the Development District
Act are necessary and in the best interests of the City a:nd its residents and are necessary to give
the City the ability to rneet certain public purpose objectives that would. not be obtainable in the
foreseeable future without intervention by the City in the normal development process.
The current Project is consistent with the established "Statement of Objectives" documented by
the original Development Program..
SECTION 2.03 BOUNDARIES OF DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT
The current boundaries of the existing Development District No. 1. are depicted in Figure 2-1.
Modifications to the Development Program do not expand the current geographic designation
of Development District No. 1. The City is not acting to modify the boundaries. Within
Development District No. 1., the City of. Albertville has previously established TIF Districts No. 1.
through 1.3, inclusive.

ARTICLE III - TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN
SECTION 3.01 STATUTORY AUTHORITY
Tax Increment Financing (Economic Development) District No. 14 and this TIF Plan are
established under the authority of the TIF Act (Minnesota Statutes 2011). For future reference in
administering the TIF Plan, a copy of the TIF Act (201.1.) will be included. in the TIF record book
for TIF District 1.4.
SECTION 3.02 PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
3.02.1 Project Description
The City has been working to attract and retain businesses and new development into the
area in and around the central. business district. The proposed development consists of the
construction of an approximately 25,000 square foot building to expand an. existing 45,000
square foot manufacturing facility. The project has been anticipated since 2007 but due to
economic conditions was delayed. Tax Increment Financing District No. 13 was previously
adopted on June 18, 2007 by the City for the purpose of providing assistance to support the
expansion. At the. time TI:F District No. 1.3 was adopted, the City :reasonably expected that the
project would have developed within. Development District No.1. in. 2007. The City Council.
acted on May 7, 2012.to authorize the decertification of TIF District No. 1.3. The geographic area
for TIF District No. 14 is the same as for TIF District No. 13. The parcel numbers have changed
since 2007 as a result of a re -plat of prior existing platted parcels into a single parcel that now
will comprise TIF District No. 14.
3.02.2 City Plans and Development Program
In addition to achieving the objectives of the Development Program, the proposed. development
is consistent with and works to achieve the development objectives of the City. The TIF Plan for
the TIF District conforms to the general plan for development of the City as a whole.
3.02.3 Land Acquisition
No acquisition of land by the City within the TIF District is anticipated.
3.02.4 Development Activities
As of the date of approval of this TIF Plan, the City anticipates that activities proposed in
this TIF Plan may be subject to contracts. The City anticipates entering into a contract with a
Developer to provide tax increment financing assistance for site improvements.
3.02.5 Need for Tax Increment Financing
In the opinion of the City, the. proposed development would not reasonably be expected to
occur solely through private investment within the foreseeable future and that the increased
market value of the site that could reasonably be expected to occur without the use of tax
increment financing would. be less than. the increase in. the market value estimated to result from
the proposed development after subtracting the present value of the projected tax increments
for the maximum duration of the TIF District permitted by the TIF Plan.
The reasons and facts supporting this finding include the following. The proposed
development was anticipated to occur in 2007, with tax increment from the City, but due to
the economic downturn, the Developer was unable to proceed even with. assistance. Although.
the Developer is now prepared to proceed with the development, the Developer still needs the
previously anticipated and planned for tax increment assistance. To facilitate the proposed
expansion by the Developer, the City has designed and developed property that is immediately
adjacent to the existing facility thereby providing the opportunity for th.e Developer to grow
ADOPTED (XX/XX/12)
23
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT) DISTRICT NO. 14
and expand their existing operations. The City has determined that no other development
is expected to occur on the site that would. create a greater inarket value than the proposed.
expansion by the Developer, after adjusting .for the tax increment assistance. Anof the site
shows that continued and expanded industrial use results in a greater increase in market value
than other possible land uses.
Furthermore, given the location. of the property and the property's zoning classification,
hou.sin.g or other commercial uses are not appropriate or likely for the site. The City finds that
without the use of tax increment financing, the proposed and preferred economic development
project will not occur.
A comparative analysis of estimated market values both with and without establishment of
the TIF Distract and the u.se of tax increments has been performed as described above and. is
shown in. Exhibit I. This analysis indicates that the increase in estimated market value of the
proposed development (less the present value of the projected tax increments for the maximum
duration permitted. by the TIF Plan) exceeds the estimated market value of the site prior to the
establishment of the TIF District.
SECTION 3.03 TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT
3.03.1 Designation
This TIF District is designated Tax Increment Financing (Economic Development) District No.
14 (Fraser Steel II).
3.03.2 Boundaries of TIF District
The boundaries of the TIF District are depicted in. Figure 3-1. The TIF District includes the
following parcel.: 1.01135001.01.0.

The TIF District is established as an "economic development" district pu.rsu.ant to Minnesota.
Statutes Sections 469.174, Subd. 12 and 469.176, Subd. 4c. These sections of the TIF Act allow
tax increments from an economic development district maybe used to provide improvements,

W
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT) DISTRICT NO. 14
loans, subsidies, grants, interest rate subsidies, or assistance in any form to developments
consisting of buildings and ancillary facilities, if all the following conditions are met:
(1) it will discourage commerce, industry; or manufacturing from moving their operations to
another state or municipality; or
(2) it will result in increased employment in the state; or
(3) it will. result in preservation and enhancement of the tax base of the state.
Revenue derived from tax increment from an economic development district may not be used to
provide improvements, loans, subsidies, grants, interest rate subsidies, or assistance in any form
to developments consisting of buildings and ancillary, facilities, if more than 15 percent of the
buildings and. facilities (determined on the basis of. square .footage) are used for a. purpose other
than:
(1) the manufacturing or production of tangible personal. property, including processing
resulting in the change in condition of the property;
(2) warehousing, storage, and distribution of tangible personal property, excluding retail
sales;
(3) research and development related to the activities listed in clause (1) or (2);
(4) telemarketing if that activity is the exclusive use of the property;
(5) tourism. facilities;
(6) qualified border retail facilities; or
(7) space necessary for and related to the activities listed in clauses (1) to (6).
The current project within the TIF District relates to plans by the Developer to expand. their
existing manufacturing facility in the City.
SECTION 3.04 PLAN FOR USE OF TAX INCREMENT
3.04.1 Estimated Tax Increment
The Original. Tax Capacity of value of. the TIF District will. be set by the County upon. request for
certification. The Original. Tax Capacity value may change over time based on the use and tax
classification of each parcel. For the purposes of this Plan, the estimated Original Tax Capacity
is $35,018. This amount is based on the most recent published Estimated Market Value of the
property of $1,788,400 with tax capacity value calculated for commercial -industrial property.
The total tax capacity value of the property after completion. of planned development is
estimated to be $57,268. This amount is based on a total Estimated Market Value of $2,938,400
with property classified as commercial -industrial. The difference between the total tax capacity
value and the Original Tax Capacity value is the Captured Tax Capacity Value for the creation of.
taxincrement. It is the City's intent to retain 100% of the Captured. Tax Capacity Value for the
life of. tlue TIF district.
The total local tax rate for taxes payable in 2012 is 142.720%. The TIF Plan assumes that this rate
will be set as the Original Tax Rate for the District.
Under these assumptions, the estimated. annual tax increment upon. completion of all. phases
of redevelopment will. be $31.,755. The actual tax increment will vary according to the certified
Original Tax Capacity value and Original Tax Rate, the actual property value produced by the
proposed development and the changes in property value and State tax policy over the life of
the district.
Exhibit 11 contains the projected tax increment over the life of the District.

3.04.2 Development Costs
The City will. use tax increment to reimburse the Developer for Site Improvement Costs related
to redevelopment of property.
The City reserves the right to use any other legally available revenues to finance or pay for
public costs associated with the development in the TIF District.
3.04.3 Estimated Sources and Uses of Funds
The estimated sources of revenue, along with the estimated public costs of the TIF District,
are itemized in. Figure 3-3. These estimates are based on the best available information in the
sources and uses of funds. Such costs are eligible for reimbursement from tax increments, and
other listed sources of revenue from the TIT District.

The Authority reserves the right to administratively adjust the amount of any of the items listed
above or to incorporate additional eligible items, so long as the total estimated project/financing
costs to be paid from tax increment is not increased.
3.04.4 Administrative Expense
The City will retain ten percent (10%) of annual tax increment revenues, less fees paid to the
State and County. The City will use these monies to pay for and reimburse the City for costs of
administering the TIF district allowed by the TIF Act. Based on current projections, this amount
is estimated to be $34,266 over the proposed life of the TIF District. Anticipated. administrative
expenses of the TIF District include annual audit of the fund .for TIF District, preparation of
annual. reporting, legal publication of annual report, and administration of the development
agreement. The City may also .reimburse itself for costs associated with the establishment of the
ADOPTED (XX/XX/12) 8
26
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT) DISTRICT NO. 14
TIF District, including the TIF Plan and the development agreement.
3.04.5 County Road Costs
The proposed. development will not substantially :increase the use of county roads and.
necessitate the need to use tax increments to pay for county road improvements.
3.04.6 Bonded Indebtedness
The City anticipates it will reimburse the developer for qualified expenditures with a bond to
be paid with. TIF revenues. The form of the bond. is anticipated to be tax increment financing
(TIF) pay -as -you. -go (PAYG) obligations. The bond may be a. contractual commitment in.
a development agreement, a separate contract -to -pay or a separately issued PAYG note.
Regardless of its form, it is defined as a "bond" in the TIF Act (Minnesota Statutes 469.174,
Subd. 3). Payments by the City to the developer on the bond are contingent on the availability
of T:IF revenues. The Developer, not the City, carries the risk that T.I..F revenues will not be
sufficient to cover the bond payments. Failure by the City to :make bond payments because
of insufficient TIF revenues does not constitute a default. A PAYG Bond does not constitute a
general obligation of the municipality and is not included when calculating debt limits.
The City anticipates it may loan or advance money from its general fund or any other fund it
has legal authority to use to finance qualifying TIF expenditures, such as costs of administering
the TIF District. An interfund loan or advance is defined in the TIF Act as a bond or a qualifying
obligation. Before money is transferred, advanced, or spent, the loan or advance must be
authorized by resolution of the City. For the loan or advance to be repaid with TIF revenues,
an interfund loan agreement must be in place before any loans or advances are made. The
terms and. conditions for repayment of the loam must be in writing and include, at minimum,
(i) the principal amount of the loan. or advance, (ii) the interest rate to be charged, and (iii) its
maximum term. The maximum rate of interest that can be charged. is limited to the annual rate
charged by the state courts or by the Department of Revenue, whichever is greater.
3.04.7 Duration of TIF District
The TIF Act a] lows tax increments to be collected from the TIF District for a period not to exceed
eight (8) years .from the date of receipt of the first tax increment. The City reserves the right to
collect tax increments for this period to undertake additional eligible activities in the TIF District
and the Development District.
Under the current schedule .for development, the first tax increment will be collected in 201.4
(construction completed in 2012) creating the authority to collect tax increments through 2022.
The City expects to request decertification of the TIF District after reimbursement of all eligible
public costs and administrative expense but no later than after the final receipt of taxes payable
estimated. to occur in 2022.
3.04.8 Estimated Impact on Other Taxing Jurisdictions
Exhibits III and IV show the estimated impact on other taxing jurisdictions if the maximum
projected retained captured net tax capacity of the TIF District was hypothetically available to
the other taxing jurisdictions. The City believes that there will be no adverse impact on other
taxing jurisdictions during the life of the TIF District, since the proposed. development would
not have occurred without the establishment of the TIF District and the provision of public
assistance. A positive impact on other taxing jurisdictions will occur when the TIF District is
decertified and the development therein becomes part of the general tax base.
The City anticipates minimal impact of the proposed development on. city -provided services. A
slight increase in water and sewer usage is expected.. I.t is anticipated that there may be a slight
but manageable increase in police and fire protection duties due to the development.
3.04.9 Prior Planned Improvements
There have been no building permits issued in the last 18 months in conjunction with any of
ADOPTED (XX/XX/12)
27
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT) DISTRICT NO. 14
the properties within the TIF District. The City will include this statement with the, request for
certification to the County Auditor. If building permits had been issued during this time period,
then the County Auditor would increase the original net tax capacity of the TIF District by the
net tax capacity of each improvement for which a building permit was issued.
ARTICLE IV — ADMINISTERING THE TIF DISTRICT
SECTION 4.01 FILING AND CERTIFICATION
The filing and. certification. of the TIF Plan. consists of the following steps:
1. Upon adoption of the TIF Plan, the City shall submit a copy of the TIF Plan to the Minnesota
Department of Revenue and the Office of the State Auditor.
2. The Authority shall request that the County Auditor certify the original net tax capacity and
net tax capacity rate of the T.I.F District. To assist the County Auditor :i:n this process, the City
shall submit copies of the TIF Plan, the resolution establishing the TIF District and adopting
the TIF Plan, and a. listing of any prior planned improvements.
3. The City shall send the County Assessor any assessment agreement establishing the
minimum market value of land and improvements in the TO District, and shall :request that
the County .Assessor review and. certify this assessment agreement as reasonable.
SECTION 4.02 MODIFICATIONS OF THE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN
The City reserves the right to modify the TIF District and the TIF Plan. Under current State
Law; the following actions can only be approved only after satisfying all the necessary
requirements for approval. of the or gina.l TIF Plan (including notifications and public hearing):
■ Reduction or enlargement in. the geographic area of the Development District or the TIF
District.
■ Increase in the amount of bonded. indebtedness to be incurred.
■ Increase in the amount of capitalized interest.
■ Increase in that portion of the captured net tax capacity to be retained by the City.
■ Increase in the total estimated public costs.
■ Designation of additional property to be acquired. by the City.
Other modifications can be made by resolution of the City Council. In addition, the original
approval process does not apply if (1) the only modification is elimination of parcels from the
TIF District and (2) the current net tax capacity of the parcels eliminated equals or exceeds the
net tax capacity of those parcels in the TIF District's original net tax capacity, or the City agrees
that the TIF District's original net tax capacity will be reduced by no more than the current net
tax capacity of the parcels eliminated.
The City must notify the County Auditor of any modification that reduces or enlarges the
geographic, area of the TIF District. The geographic area of. the TIF District may be reduced. but

TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT) DISTRICT NO. 14
District no demolition, rehabilitation, renovation or site improvement, including a qualified
improvement of an. adjacent street, has commenced on a parcel located. within the TIF District,
then that parcel. shall be excluded .from the TIF District and the original. net tax capacity shall be
adjusted accordingly. Qualified improvements of a street are limited to construction or opening
of a new street, relocation of a street, or substantial reconstruction or rebuilding of an existing
street. The City must submit to the County Auditor, by February 1 of the fifth year, evidence
that the :required. activity has taken place for each parcel in the TIF District.
If. a parcel is excluded from the TIF District and the City or owner of the parcel subsequently
commences any of the above activities, the City shall certify to the County Auditor that such
activity has commenced and the parcel shall once again be included in the TIF District. The
County Auditor shall certify the net tax capacity of the parcel, as most recently certified by the
Commissioner of Revenue, and add. such amount to the original net tax capacity of the TIF
District.
SECTION 4.04 POOLING/5-YEAR RULE
At least 80% of the tax increments (net of administrative expenses) from this TIF District (the
"In -District Percentage") must be expended on. activities within. the TIF District, including
payment on any bonds for which the proceeds were used to finance activities within the TIF
District. Up to 20% of the tax increments from this TIF District may be used to finance activities
outside the TIF District but within the Development District. ) All administrative expenses are
for activities outside of the district, except that if the only expenses for activities outside of the
district are for the purposes described in. Minnesota Statute, 469.1.763, Subd. 2(d.).
Tax increments are considered to have been "spent" within the TIF District if such amounts are:
• actually paid to a third party for activities performed within the TIF District within five
years after certification. of the district;
• used to pay bonds that were issued and sold to a third party, the proceeds of which are
reasonably expected on the date of issuance to be spent within the later of the five-year
period or a reasonable temporary period or are deposited in a reasonably required reserve
or replacement fund.
• used. to :make payments or reimbursements to a third party under binding contracts for
activities performed within the TIF District, which. were entered into within five years after
certification of the district; or
• used to reimburse a party for payment of eligible costs (including interest) incurred within
five years from certification of the district; or
• in the case of a housing district, used for a housing project, as defined in. section 469.174,
subdivision 11.
Beginning with the sixth year after certification. of. the TIF District, if the tax increments actually
received by the City representing the In -District Percentage exceed the amounts considered
"spent" within the TIF District, the excess must be used or set aside to pay or defease bonds (as
described above) or to make payments under contracts (as described above). The TIF District
must be decertified when the City has received tax increments representing the In -District
Percentage in an. amount sufficient to fully pay its in -district obligations (Le., d.efease any bonds
anal/or fulfill a.l.l contractual. obligations).
It is anticipated that all tax increments collected in the TIF District will spent or obligated
within this time period. Unless the TIF Plan is modified within this five-year period and
additional expenditures are authorized., tax increments will only be used to pay .for authorized
redevelopment costs and administrative expenses.

NOTE NO, 1: Assuming that ALL of the captured tax capacity would be available to all taxing jurisdictions
even if the City does not create the Tax Increment District, the creation of the District will reduce tax
capacities and increase the local tax rate as illustrated in the above tables.
NOTE NO. 2: Assuming that NONE of the captured tax capacity would be available to the taxing jurisdiction
if the City did not create the Tax Increment District, then the plan has virtually no initial effect on the tax
capacities of the taxing jurisdictions. However, once the District is established, allowable costs paid from the
increments, and the District is terminated, all taxing jurisdictions will experience an increase in their tax
base.

RE: Wastewater Treatment Plant and Water Department Update
WATER
• Jacob Kreutner training is going well.
• Have not had any water leaks this spring, it has been business as usual.
• Water shut offs are scheduled for June 27th.
WASTEWATER
With all the heavy rain we had on May 23rd and 24th I had to divert some of the flow
entering the wastewater treatment plant to pond 1. This lasted about twelve hours.
We have been struggling with our Phosphorous limit since the heavy rain in May. We
are meeting our limits, but have had to add more chemicals than usual.
I had to have one of the oxidation ditch mixers rebuilt.
REED BED UPDATE
• Reed bed one is struggling this spring this is the one that was cleaned out last year. I
believe we applied too much sludge, and too soon after replanting. I have taken it out
of rotation for a couple weeks.
COUNTY DITCH 9 CLEANING
• We have been treating the stumps that were left after the tree and brush clearing with a

SUBJECT: Engineering — I-94 WB C-D Road Project Update
The CSAH 37 on -ramp has been closed and traffic will be detoured via CSAH 37 and CSAH 19
during construction. Traffic has been switched to the temporary CSAH 37 off -ramp and
removal of the off -ramp has begun. Retaining wall piling operations will continue thru the end
of the week and concrete footing work is expected to begin next week. Currently the Contractor
is working on pond excavation, excavation and grading of the new ramps and C-D road, and is
preparing for installation of storm sewer. Additional unsuitable soils have been encountered
along the C-D road and under the CSAH 37 Bridge. Soil correction costs have been largely
mitigated by mining suitable material from beneath the grading limits of the pond and
substituting the mined material with unsuitable material.
Staff has received concerns from Heidi's Market regarding loss of sales during the construction
and staff will be posting signage on the freeway indicating that local businesses are open during
construction.
Miscellaneous Project Related Items:
• Approximately $2,800,000 in State funds has been received.
• The PFA loan requirements have been completed and the project is now eligible to
receive loan disbursements.
• Staff is working with the Ownership group of the Mall concerning the preliminary
assessment.
• Partial Payment No. 1 will be presented to Council at the June 18ffi Council Meeting.
• The posted freeway speed will be reduced from 70 to 60 MPH thru the project corridor
during construction.
• At this time, there are no scheduled lane restrictions for freeway traffic.
If at any time you have any questions or would like more of a project update, please call.

SUBJECT: LEGAL — INTERIM CITY ADMINISTRATOR CONTRACT.
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following motion:
MOTION: To adopt Agreement Between The City Of Albertville, Wright County,
Minnesota And Thistle Advisory And Consulting Associates, LLC For Interim City
Administrator Services.
BACKGROUND: On June 4, 2012, the City Council met with Bob Thistle to discuss the
possibility of retaining Mr. Thistle on a temporary basis to provide Interim City Administrator
services to the City. Mr. Thistle has served in various City positions throughout his career,
including City Manager at Coon Rapids for a number of years, Community Development
Director and Finance Director at other cities of considerable size. Mr. Thistle has also worked
for Springstead, Inc. for approximately 20 years as a financial advisor and consultant to cities,
including Albertville.
After meeting with Mr. Thistle, the City Council directed staff to prepare a contract with Mr.
Thistle providing services as an independent contractor. Attached is the proposed contract
negotiated between Thistle Advisory and Consulting Associates, LLC ("TACA") and the City.
Mr. Thistle will be an employee of TACA and will be assigned to work with the City as the
Interim City Administrator.
KEY ISSUES:
• Mr. Thistle will work between 20 and 40 hours a week as an independent contractor.
• Mr. Thistle will determine what hours he will be at City Hall, but he will be available via
phone or other electronic device when not in City Hall. Note that this will give the City
somewhat less control than the City may be used to with an employee -City
Administrator.
• Mr. Thistle will determine the work priorities of the Interim City Administrator.
• The City will pay TACA $55 per hour worked. TACA will invoice the City monthly like
the City's other consultants.
• The Agreement is structured such that if the City decides to hire internally, Mr. Thistle
will mentor the new City Administrator while Mr. Thistle serves as Interim City
Administrator. When the City believes that the new City Administrator is ready to
assume full responsibility for the City Administrator position, Mr. Thistle will be
available on an on -call basis at $500 per month for up to 10 hours of consultation and $50
per hour in excess of 10 hours per month. The on -call relationship can exist as long as
the City and TACA desire it to continue.

Meeting Date: June 18, 2012
Mayor and Council Communication — June 18, 2012
Interim City Administrator Contract. Page 2 of 2
• If the City hires an external City Administrator, Mr. Thistle will serve as Interim City
Administrator until the new City Administrator reports for work.
• The City is agreeing to indemnify and defend Mr. Thistle in the event of any third party
claims against Mr. Thistle arising from his work under the Agreement. The City is also
agreeing to obtain an insurance rider from the League to cover Mr. Thistle, at City
expense. The League can issue such a rider. We are still checking on what additional
cost, if any, is associated with such a rider. If there is a cost, we expect it to be small.
• The Agreement can be terminated by either party upon 30 days notice.
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: Retaining Interim City Administrator services can be done in
the discretion of the City Council. Staff believes that retaining an experienced former City
Administrator will result in a quick learning curve and allow the Interim City Administrator to
hit the ground running.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: At $55 per hour, the City will be paying TACA at an
annual rate of $110,000 per year, slightly higher than Mr. Kruse's pay. Currently the City is still
paying Mr. Kruse his severance pay, which means that TACA's payments will be over and
above the budgeted amounts for this position. However, depending upon the actual hours put in
by TACA, the monthly payment can vary between $9,150 and $5,500 per month.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The City has the authority to retain Interim City Administrator
services via the attached Agreement.

AND
THISTLE ADVISORY AND CONSULTING ASSOCIATES, LLC FOR INTERIM
CITY ADMINISTRATOR SERVICES
THIS AGREEMENT is made and entered into this day of 2012, by and
between the City of Albertville , a municipal corporation under the laws of the State of
Minnesota ("City") and THISTLE ADVISORY AND CONSULTING ASSOCIATES,
LLC., ("Contractor")
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, the City is in need of temporary professional City Administrator; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor has substantial experience in these areas, and is qualified to
assist the City as a consultant; and
WHEREAS, the City desires to contract with the Contractor for City Administrator
services; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor declares that he is engaged in an independent business and has
complied with all federal, state and local laws regarding business permits and licenses of
any kind that may be required to carry out said businesses and the tasks as set forth in this
Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor declares that it is, or remains available to be, engaged in the
same or similar activities for other clients during the term of this contract, and that the City
is not to be construed as the Contractor's only client or customer.
NOW, THEREFORE, for the reasons set forth above, and in consideration of the mutual
promises and covenants made herein, it is agreed as follows:
1. Services to be Performed: The City engages the Contractor to perform temporary City
Administrator services within the following parameters:
a. The Contractor shall perform the duties of the City Administrator as set out in the
City Administrator's job description.
1
W
b. The parties anticipate that Contractor shall assign Robert Thistle to perform the
duties of the City Administrator under this Agreement. In the event Contractor
desires to assign someone other than Mr. Thistle to perform such duties, such
other person shall have a reasonably similar level of City Administrator/Manager
experience as Mr. Thistle, and the Contractor shall give the City a minimum of
30 days notice before assigning such other person to fulfill Contractor's
obligations under this Agreement.
c. The parties anticipate that the Contractor will typically work between 20 and 40
hours per week. The Contractor shall determine how many hours to work each
week depending upon the workload and the priority in which the Contractor
believes the work should be completed.
d. The Contractor need not be in City Hall every work day, but shall endeavor to be
available via phone or other electronic communication method during normal
City Hall hours if needed on an emergency basis when not present at City Hall.
e. It is the intent of the City to hire a permanent City Administrator in the near
future. At this time, the City is evaluating two options: 1) training an existing
City employee for the position of City Administrator, or 2) working with an
executive search firm to hire an experienced City Administrator.
i. In the event the City chooses to train an existing City employee for the
position, the Contractor shall act as a mentor to the trainee for a
reasonable period of time with the intent that after a period of time, in the
judgment of the Contractor and the City Council, the trainee shall assume
the majority of the duties of the City Administrator and the Contractor
shall be available for a period of time on an "on call" basis to assist the
trainee as he or she requests such assistance. At such time as the
Contractor switches to "on call" status, Contractor shall be paid a retainer
of $500.00 per month and shall provide up to 10 hours of assistance to the
City Administrator per month under such retainer. Any assistance
provided in excess of 10 hours per month shall be billed to the City at
$50.00 per hour and shall be paid in accordance with the procedures set
out in paragraph 2 of this Agreement.
ii. In the event the City chooses to hire a City Administrator with the
assistance of an executive search firm, it is the intent of the parties that the
Contractor perform the duties of Interim City Administrator until such
time as the permanent City Administrator reports to the City for work.

iii. The City and Contractor intend for the Contractor's services to the City
under this Agreement to be short-term, lasting approximately six months
to a year.
2. Terms of Payment: The City shall pay the Contractor according to the following terms
and conditions: $55.00 per hour. Payment shall be made monthly and shall be based on the

business away from City Hall at the current Federal rate, and any receipted expenses
incurred on behalf of the City and presented with invoice. The City shall reimburse

and any necessary equipment, tools, materials and supplies, except for receipted expenses,

indemnify Contractor for any claims made against Contractor arising from Contractor's
actions that fall within the scope of Contractor's duties under this Agreement, provided,
however, that the City's obligation under this paragraph shall only be binding to the extent
the City's insurance actually pays for the costs to defend and indemnify Contractor.
Nothing in this agreement shall act as a waiver of the City's tort liability limits set forth in
Minn. Stat. 466.04, nor shall the City's obligation to hold harmless defend and indemnify
Contractor under this Agreement exceed the tort liability limits set forth in Minn. Stat.
466.04,

SUBJECT: LEGAL —EXTENSION OF BRIDGET MILLER'S PROBATIONARY
PERIOD.
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following motion:
MOTION: To extend the probationary period of Bridget Miller by 3 months to October 3,
2012.
BACKGROUND: On January 3, 2012, the City Council moved Bridget Miller to the position
of Administrative Assistant II — Accounting Clerk with a probationary period of six months,
which would end on July 3, 2012. Bridget's job description has her reporting to the Finance
Director and the City Administrator. However, with the dismissal of the City Administrator in
April of this year, half of Bridget's evaluation cannot be performed as we currently do not have a
City Administrator. In addition, since Tina has effectively taken on a number of the duties of
City Clerk and some of the duties of the City Administrator, she has not had time since early
April to fully train Bridgeton a number of her financial -related job duties. Without this training,
Tina has been unable to assign to Bridget work in a number of categories of her job description,
and is therefore unable to properly evaluate Bridget's ability to perform such work.
KEY ISSUES: Extension of the probationary period will:
• Allow Bridget to be trained on nearly all of the duties listed in her job description.
• Allow Tina to properly evaluate Bridget's performance of the financial duties included in
her job description.
• Allow the Interim City Administrator time to properly evaluate Bridget's work
performance.
• Fulfill the intent of the City Council in requiring an evaluation of Bridget's performance
after the end of the probationary period.
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: Prior to the expiration of a probationary period, the
probationary employee is evaluated and a determination made as to whether the employee should
remain in that position. Staff believes an extension of the probationary period will allow for a
more complete and accurate evaluation of Bridget's performance in her current position.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: None. During the extension of the probationary period,
Bridget will remain an employee of the City in her current position, which is already budgeted.

SUBJECT: LEGAL — REQUEST FOR THE STATE TO DEED TAX FORFEIT
PROPERTIES TO THE CITY.
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the
following motion:
Motion: To pass Resolution Requesting The State of Minnesota to Deed Tax Forfeited Lands to
the City of Albertville.
BACKGROUND: Wright County has recently forwarded to the City a list of properties that
have gone tax forfeit in the City of Albertville. Most of these properties are remnants that are
unusable by themselves, trails and storm water ponds from subdivisions that were never deeded
to the City, or wetlands. The City Planner, City Public Works Director and City Attorney have
reviewed the list and are recommending that certain properties be acquired. Under State law, the
City can acquire these properties as long as we use them for a public purpose. For example, the
properties that are adjacent to street rights or way or are currently being used as trails qualify for
public purpose uses. For those properties that qualify, the State will issue the City a reversionary
deed at no charge to the City. Under this deed, the State retains the right to require the City to
deed the property back to the State if the City quits using it for the stated public purpose. Two of
the properties qualify under this provision of the statute.
The City may also acquire properties free of charge with no deed restrictions if the tax forfeited
properties were supposed to be deeded to the City pursuant to a developer's agreement prior to
the properties becoming tax forfeit. Four of the properties (three trail properties and one
wetland/ponding property) from the 1999 plat of Park View Place qualify under this provision of
the statute.
The properties are as follows:

This property is a combination of ponds and wetlands that was originally to be dedicated to the
City under the terms of the Park View Place developer's agreement. The ponds support the
senior housing development on Lachman Avenue.
PID 101-065-000080
This property is currently being used as a trail. This trail was originally to be dedicated to the
City under the terms of the Park View Place developer's agreement.

This property abuts 57th Street across from the Catholic Church. The right of way on 57th is very
narrow at this point (so much so that we had to modify the location of the sidewalk to keep it in
the right of way when it was constructed a few years ago). This property will be used as
additional right of way.

This property is nearly all wetland adjacent to one of the lots in Barthel Industrial Park owned by
the City. The City has a sewer line running through this property.
KEY ISSUES:
• The City can acquire the properties at no charge provided we put them to a public use or
the properties were supposed to be deeded to the City under the terms of the developer's
agreement.
• All of the properties proposed currently serve a public purpose or will serve a public
purpose upon development or were supposed to be deeded to the City pursuant to the
developer's agreement.
• If the City does not acquire the properties, they will be sold to the highest bidder at
auction. The buyer will receive clean title except for recorded easements and could
remove existing trails and utilities that the City has installed if we do not have recorded
easements over these properties.
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: All of these properties are similar to properties that the City
already owns (i.e. ponds, wetlands, right of way and trails). Ownership of these properties is
consistent with current City policy.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There are no significant financial considerations. The
State will deed the properties to the City for free. These properties generate little or no tax
dollars for the City (assuming taxes were to be paid), so City acquisition will have a negligible
impact on tax revenues. City Staff had already assumed that the City would maintain the trails,
ponds and utilities located on these properties, so acquisition will not increase expected
expenditures.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The City Attorney recommends acquiring these properties
from the State now while the City can do so without cost. Once these properties pass into private
hands, the City would have to pay to buy the properties or pay to condemn them to preserve the
City's trails, ponds and utilities.
