ADJOURNMENT
COUNCIL MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 18, 1989
The regular meeting of the Albertville City Council was called to
order by Mayor Gary Schwenzfeier. Members present included Jim
Krystosek, Donatus Vetsch, Don Cornelius, Bob Braun. Others present
included Maureen Andrews, Bob Miller, Bob Sullentrop, and Ken Lindsay.
The agenda for the evening's meeting was reviewed by the Council.
A motion was made by Bob Braun and seconded by Don Cornelius to
approve the agenda. All were in favor and the motion carried.
The Council first heard from the Engineering Department.
Bob Sullentrop first, reviewed with the Council the final payment
for the 1988-7 project. The pay request was for $2,240.73 and it was
noted that with this payment the contract would be closed out and
completed. Donatus asked if all the fire hydrants had been raised or
kits provided so if in the future they needed to be raised that the
City would have the ability to do so. It was noted that thecontract
had been completed as specified with regards to hydrant extensions.
Hearing no other comments, a motion was made to approve the
payment, to Latour Construction in the amount of $2,240,70. The motion
was made by Donatus Vetsch and seconded by •Jim Krystosek. All were in
favor and the motion carried.
Bob requested some additional time to review the pay request for
Buffalo Bituminous because it appeared that there was an error in the
request. It was noted that once the other engineering items were
completed, Bob would double check the pay request prior to its
approval.
Bob next updated the Council on the construction projects
currently underway in the City. It was noted that, the blacktopping of
Psyk's 4th Addition was expected to be underway later in the week,
-- provided the weather held.
Bob informed the Council that he was finishing the final
negotiation with Latour Construction on the 1988-3A Street Improvement
Project. There were a few final punch list items that had not been
completed and they were reviewing final quantities before the pay
request was submitted for payment. The Council can expect to see the
pay request at the next regular Council meeting.
It was noted that the culvert that drains the ditch on the south
side of the railroad tracks into School Lake had been cleaned by
MN/DOT, but it appears that there is still some problems because the
water is still not draining. Bob Sullentrop will be looking at the
area again to see what the problem is.
Bob discussed the Allied sealcoating problem again with the
Council after he was asked by Council member Krystosek if the problem
had been resolved. He informed the Council that the issue was still
being discussed and that nothing had been settled at this point. It
was again noted by the Council that they felt that the problem still
lies with the general contractor and their subcontractors and
suppliers. No action was taken on this matter.
The Council next discussed the Maintenance items.
Ken reviewed with the Council the letter received from MPCA
regarding the proposed change to the Wastewater Treatment Facility.
The letter noted that the City would be allowed to install the access
ramp into primary cell number 2 provided that no new discharge
outfalls would be constructed. No action was taken on the matter.
Ken next informed the Council that, the street sweeping was
expected to be started on Wednesday of the same week provided that the
weather held. It, was noted that the red rock would be used in the City
Park around the shelter and bleachers and that the granite chip was
going to be used around the City Hall. Ken noted that he was going to
have an extra person helping so that the work could be done as quickly
as possible.
It was also noted that the residential streets would be swept,
first and that the Maintenance Department would be taking notices out
to all the effected residential areas asking that no cars be left on
the street for sweeping purposes.
Ken noted to the Council that, Dennis Fehn Gravel would be working
in the Four Season Park during the week provided that there was no
rain. It was noted that the trees are being watered on a regular basis
and that things are progressing nicely.
The next maintenance item discussed was that of Ray Varner"s
three month probationary period will be up October 1, 1989 and the
-2-
Council had agreed to increase his salary $0.50 at the end of the
three months if Ray was working out in an acceptable manner.
It, was agreed that Ray is doing a good job and that he was
entitled to the $0.50 raise as of October 1st. A motion to increase
Ray Varner`s salary from $5.50 to $6.00 was made by by -Jim Krystosek
and seconded by Don Cornelius. All were in favor and the motion
carried.
The final maintenance item discussed was Ken"s attendance to the
pond school in New Ulm. He informed the Council that the school had
been very beneficial and that he had learned a great deal.
At this time Bob was prepared to review with the Council the Pay
Request for Buffalo Bituminous. The following changes were made to Pay
Request #1:
DENSITY TESTING $ 50.00 each DELETED
AGGREGATE SWEEP UP
AND REMOVAL $ 2,300.00 DELETED
TOTAL BID "B"
$35,292.50
It was noted that these changes did not, change the dollar amount
of Partial Payment #1 but were just typing errors. The amount of the
Pay Request, was $63,152.56.
A member of the Council asked if the sealcoat issue impacted this
pay request at all. Bob noted that because this was a partial payment
that there was not a problem because the matter can be cleared up
prior to the completion of the contract.
Hearing no other comments a motion was made by Jim Krystosek to
approve the Pay Request for Buffalo Bituminous in the amount of
$63,152.56. The motion was seconded by Donatus Vetsch. All were in
favor and the motion carried.
The next matter discussed was regarding what the School District
could expect for Sewer Availability Charges (SAC), Albertville Water
Availability Charges (ALWAC) and Storm Water Availability Charges
(SWAG) for the construction of the proposed High School. Based on the
assumption that the building permit for the school would be pulled
sometime in 1990, the following cost would be associated with the
construction:
SAC (55 UNITS X $675.00) $37,125.00
ALWAC $ 200.00
SWAG (% OF IMPERVIOUS AREA X
CONNECTION CHARGE) $18,300.00
TOTAL CHARGES $55,725.00
-3-
This information will be relayed to the School District's
Architect in the next couple weeks.
The Council next dealt with the Legal items on the agenda.
Bob Miller presented several ordinances for the Council to review
at the next meeting. The ordinances include one for yard and driveway
maintenance, rules and regulations governing city parks, and for the
regulating peddlers and solicitors. The Council agreed to review this
information for the next meeting.
The Council next adopted a RESOLUTION DECLARING TOTAL COST TO BE
ASSESSED AND ORDERING PREPARATION OF PROPOSED ASSESSMENT IN CONNECTION
WITH WATER, SANITARY SEWER AND STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENT 1988-7. The
motion to adopt the resolution was made by Bob Braun and seconded by
Jim Krystosek. All were in favor and the motion carried.
The Council next, adopted a RESOLUTION FOR PUBLIC HEARING ON
PROPOSED ASSESSMENT FOR WATER, SANITARY SEWER AND STORM SEWER
IMPROVEMENT NO. 1988-7. The motion was made by Don Cornelius to set
the Assessment Hearing for October 16th at 7:00 p.m. The motion was
seconded by Jim Krystosek. All were in favor and the motion carried.
There was a brief update on the materials pertaining to the Park
and Ride Lot. It appears that everything is in order for the project
to move ahead. A member of the Council asked Maureen to check with the
bank to see what their plans are for the upcoming months. No other
action was taken on the matter.
The Income Received and Bills to be Paid were reviewed next by
the Council. The Pay Request, corrections were made to the list and
clarified with the Council.
Hearing no questions or comments a motion was made to approve the
bills. The motion was made by Don Cornelius and seconded by Jim
Krystosek to approve checks 9854 to 9880. All were in favor and the
motion carried.
A public hearing for the 1990 Annual Budget was scheduled for
October 16th at 7:00 p.m. on a motion made by Don Cornelius. The
motion was seconded by Bob Braun. All were in favor and the motion
carried.

was scheduled for September 26th in Cokato. Council member Vetsch

Maureen so that the reservation could be changed.

project, was made by Donatus Vetsch and seconded by Jim Krystosek. All
were in favor and the motion carried.
In a related matter to the Fraser Steel Company project, the
Council ordered the preparation of the Plans and Specifications for
