DEPARTMENT BUSINESS
PUBLIC WORKS FACILITY FINANCING
Bill Fayhe of Northland Securities was present and explained the Revenue Bond process and
stated the average interest rate will be 4.55%, which is very good. Fayhe also explained that
Moody's increased the City's General Obligation Bond rating from A3 to A2 and the rating
for the Revenue Bond from a BAA to an A3, which will result in a $26,000 to a $36,000
overall interest savings.
Fayhe explained that the Albertville Economic Development Authority was issuing a
$2,100,000 Bond and then leasing the facility to the City. Revenue generated from the lease
would be used to pay for the bonds.
MOTION BY Council member Berning, seconded by Council member Klecker to adopt the
Resolution Authorizing the execution and delivery of a Ground Lease and a Lease Purchase
Agreement, and approving and authorizing issuance of Public Project Lease Revenue Bonds
and execution of related documents. Motion carried unanimously.
ENGINEERING
HEIDI'S CAR WASH WASTEWATER ACCESS FEE (SAC)
AND WATER ACCESS FEE (WAC)
City Engineer Carlson presented the Council with a memorandum outlining that the last car
wash constructed was the Mobil Station on CSAH 19 and CSAH 37. The current
Metropolitan Council Manual calculates the WAC and SAC at 100 cars per day of water
usage. When the Mobil Station was built, the formula was at 75 cars per day. Rob Nelson
requested his fee be based on the same number of cars as his competitor.
MOTION BY Council member Fay, seconded by Council member Klecker to set the SAC
fee based on the 75 car formula and the WAC will be calculated at the 100 car formula as
most of those proceeds go to the Joint Water Board with the detailed calculation available in
the office of the City Clerk. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Nelson requested that the City assess a portion of the cost of the improvement over a
three-year period as he had already completed his financing and this added expense was
unexpected.
.
.
.
MOTION BY Council member Fay, seconded by Council member Klecker to authorize
entering into an Assessment Agreement with Mr. Nelson to assess the differential between
what he had already paid for WAC and SAC and the new amount. The amount is to be
assessed over a three-year period at 6.55% interest as on file in the office of the City Clerk.
Motion carried unanimously.
The Council stated in the future they did not want to assess any further WAC and SAC fees
and staff should inform future businesses and developers.
