COUNCIL MINUTES
JULY 17, 1990
The regular meeting of the Albertville City Council was called to order
by Mayor Gary Schwenzfeier. Members present included Bob Braun, Don Cornelius,
Donatus Vetsch, and Jim Krystosek. Others present included Maureen Andrews,
Bob Miller, Thore Meyer, Kevin Mealhouse, Ken Lindsay, and Jackie Peterson.
The agenda for the evening was reviewed by the Council. Maureen Andrews
noted that three additional items needed to be added, that were not included
on the agenda.
1. Call from Pete Radaca, Frankfort Engineer regarding a possible Joint
Power's Agreement with the City of Albertville and Otsego Township
for the purpose correcting the water problem in Frankfort Township.
2. The public acknowledgement of the Lion's Gambling License
application.
3. The firemen's request for additional training money and discussion on
the need for a new water truck.
The Council reviewed and made note of Maureen"s additions. A motion was
made by Don Cornelius to approve the agenda. The motion was seconded by
Donatus Vetsch. All were in favor and the motion was carried.
The minutes of the July 2nd Council meeting were reviewed. A motion was
made by Donatus Vetsch to approve the minutes. Don Cornelius seconded the
motion. All were in favor and the motion was carried.
The first item on the agenda was a request to allow for a variance in
size for a storage shed for Ken Lindsay. The Council was informed that Ken
had made request to remove it from the agenda.
Under Department Business the first item was Maintenance. Ken Lindsay
informed the Council that he had no updates at this time.
The issue of the Maintenance Department purchasing radios was brought up.
Maureen told the Council that she had been talking with Brad at the Wright
County Communications office. Maureen said that Brad told her that he could
not tell how old the radios were unless she could provide him with serial
numbers. He informed her that if these used radios were on repeaters it could
be expensive to switch over to our frequency. He stated that if the City could
get the serial numbers he could tell what the dollar value of the radios would
be also.
Jim Krystosek said that the Midland radios were the same frequency. They
are exactly the same as the other ones except that they are 5 years older.
It was also noted that the pagers the City owns are on a different
frequently and that we would need to get a separate frequency for the radios
and pagers.
Jim then said he would get the serial numbers together for Maureen to
give to Brad. Jim Krystosek made a motion to have Maureen schedule a meeting
to review the facts and findings, and to make a decision at that time. Bob
Braun seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.
The next item on the agenda was Engineering. Thore Meyer gave a brief
Presentation of the Feasibility report for Barthel's Parks Edge. Thore
explained that since there was only one property owner there would be a 1
Petition for Improvements. It was questioned whether or not an Improvement
Hearing would need to be held in this case. Bob noted that it was his
preference to hold the hearing regardless.
The Feasibility Study noted that the project would be served by the
existing sanitary sewer on Barthel Industrial Drive, noting that a manhole
would need to be cut into the existing line. All the service connections to
the individual lots would be made from Lansing Circle.
The watermain will consist of the extension of the existing 8 inch
service lead originally installed as an industrial site sprinkler service. By
using this existing service the City will eliminate the second cutting of
Barthel Industrial Drive. The water mail will also be extended from the end
of the cul-de-sac through the walkway to connect to the existing park service
line, thus providing a water loop instead of the deadend lines for Lansing
Circle and Larabee Circle. All water service will be made to the main on
Lansing Circle and not Barthel Industrial Drive.
The report noted that all storm drainage within the development will be
handled by surface drainage, utilizing the proposed streets as the conveyance
system. No storm sewer is being proposed. A cross -gutter will be constructed
where Lansing Circle intersects with Barthel Industrial Drive to maintain the
existing flow on Barthel Industrial Drive and provide an outlet for Lansing
Circle.
The street improvement will consist of 3 1/2-inch bituminous pavement and
surmountable concrete curb and gutter placed over a 12-inch gravel base on
Lansing Circle. The boulevard section shall be shaped to the proper
cross-section with the existing soils. It will be the responsibility of the
developer to provide the 4-inch topsoil and sod at such time the homes have
been constructed. The contractor shall seed the existing materials to provide
only a temporary grass cover.
PAGE 2
The report suggested for the curb and street preservation's sake, the
City should let the bituminous surfacing in two separate contracts.. The first
surfacing contract would be for a 2-inch base course, followed with a second
contract, after all homes had been built. This would consist of a 1 1/2-inch
wearing course.
The report suggested that the walkway to the park area would be covered
with 4 inches of topsoil and sodded by the street contractor. The path would
be located between lots 4 and 5. Thore noted that he had received a copy of
the draft copy of the Developer's Agreement for the subdivision. It was
Pointed out that the developer would be responsible for the installation of a
bituminous parkway. Thore stated that there was enough money in the
improvement project to cover the installation of said walking path.
Thore then went on to explain some of the costs involved in the project.
COST SUMMARY
The estimated costs for the above improvements are:
Sanitary sewer
$18, lfdO.00
Water main 17,700.00
Street construction, Phase I 23,000.00
Street Construction, Final Lift 6,000 00
$64,000.00
5% Contingencies
3,240.00
18% Engineering
11,660.00
TOTAL
$79,700.00
Thore also pointed out that no bonding, financing, administrative or
legal costs have been included in these figures.
The report noted that the improvements were feasible and should be be
done as proposed, and will be a benefit to the abutting properties, so
therefore can be fully assessed.
There was then discussion the some of the issues discussed in the report.
The issue of two contracts for the blacktopping was questioned. It was
Pointed out that this process would save the condition of the blacktop which
can be severely damaged during the home construction. By letting two contract
the final lift would go in after any necessary repairs are made to the street
and there would be a clean look to the street.
PAGE 3
Maureen then suggested that if the City was to undertake the project in
this fashion that the second lift of blacktop should be figured in for
assessment purposes.
Bob Miller stated that he did not know if these option could be
undertaken because of the requirements of Minnesota Statute 429. He stated
that under the 429 financing that there is an one year stipulation regarding
awarding the contract after holding the improvement hearing. He also pointed
out that may be a problem with trying to assess for work that has not been
undertaken prior to assessing the improvement. He said that he would check
with Mary Ippel to see what her opinion on the issue would be.
Assuming that this option is allowed, Thore suggested that the cost for
the second lift of blacktop would run about $6,000.00 to complete the
project. Jim Rrystosek asked what would happen if the final lift should cost
$8,000.00 dollars instead of the the $6,000.00 that would be assessed for, who
would be responsible to pay the difference? Thore pointed out that there
should not be much difference in the quoted price. The cost of repairing
damage done to a second lift built at the same time would outweigh the small
difference in cost in waiting to construct.
Don Cornelius questioned whether there were to be 8 or 9 lots. Maureen
said that the lots were to be cut down to 8, only if they could not meet the
conditions set in the Planner's Report.
Donatus Vetsch had a question in regards to the placement of the fire
hydrants. Thore explained that the report is suggesting that they be located
300 feet apart instead of the 250 feet required by Joint Powers. It was noted
�— that if Joint Powers does not
relocated accord Sze`' the placement that they will be
ingly.
Bob Braun asked Thore if there would be storm water drainage from the
industrial drive. Thore said that the way the drainage is designed that there
would not be any.
A motion to accept the feasibility report and set a hearing as soon as
Possible was mad by Bob Braun. The motion was seconded by Don Cornelius. All
were in favor and the motion was carried.
The Council then discussed briefly the Feasibility Report for Sanitary
Sewer trunk to St. Michael -Albertville High School. There was a work meeting
scheduled for Tuesday evening. After some discussion the meeting was
rescheduled for 5:00 p.m..
The next item on the agenda was legal business.
The Council discussed the Adoption of Ordinance 1990-6; AN ORDINANCE
REGULATING THE USE OF OUTDOOR AREAS OF ON -SALE INTOXICATING LIQUOR LICENSE
PREMISES AND PROVIDING A PENALTY FOR VIOLATION THEREOF. Specifically the bar
owners of the 152 Club, requesting to put in a garden bar, which would serve
liquor and play recorded music. Bob Miller briefly described the ordinance.
PAGE4
He said the bar hours requirements are as requested in the July 2nd meeting.
He did add an emergency exit to the fence. He included the stipulations that
- the fence would be 6 feet in height for visual, aesthetics and noise control.
He also reiterated that this is a draft copy only.
Mike Zachman and Mary Vetsch, two of the bar owners were present to
discuss the issue with the Council. They expressed their concern regarding the
early hours. Mike said the reason for the garden bar is to provide room for
special occasions, such as Friendly City days, the Smelt fry, and Softball
tournaments, etc.
Donatus Vetsch also thought the time was to strict and should be moved to
11:30 for serving drinks and the music to be turned off at 11:00 p.m.
Bob Miller pointed out the possibility of issuing special permits for
special events, as the City does with Beer Permits, and Bingo events. This
way the ordinance could grant extended bar and music hours. The ordinance
could include the stipulations needed regarding the special events permit. He
suggested that the ordinance could also include a limit as to how many time a
year a special permit could be issued.
Jim Krystosek questioned if the Council adopts the ordinance now, and the
bar becomes a problem with the residents, how long would the ordinance be in
effect before it could be change?
Bob Miller said that a new ordinance could be adopted at the time of
their renewal of their liquor license.
Donatus Vetsch questioned the size of the patio. Mike explained they had
Planned on the patio being 25' X 35' and wish to put in a volley ball court.
The Council felt that their request was appropriate and that this would be a
standard size.
The Council further discussed the ideas with Mike and Marv. The Council
felt the number of special events should be limited to no more than 6 times
during the Year. The Council considered the fact that many of the occasions
the City has may run for several days.
Don Cornelius suggested that the event permits be limited to 6 times per
Year and each permit be limited to no more than 3 days.
The Council requested that Bob redraw the ordinance. There were several
different time stipulations discussed as well as each of their merits. It was
finally agreed that the ordinance should read that there be no music
broadcasted or played in the outside area after 11:00p.m. on regular days, and
no music played or broadcasted after 12:00 midnight with the special events
Permit, The Council also stipulated that there be no alcoholic beverages
served after 11:45 p.m. nor consumed after 12:00 midnight on regular nights.
Occasions with a Special Permit may serve alcoholic beverages between 12:00
and 1:00 a.m..
PAGE 5
At this time Don Cornelius made a motion to have Bob Miller make the
necessary changes to the ordinance by changing the time set forth in the
discussion and to add the stipulations for Special Events permits. Jim
Krystosek seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion was carried.
The Council then discussed the drafted amendments to Personnel Policy
Section .19, regarding vacation leave. Bob Miller noted the only changes to
the policy was the word "temporary" to clause (A), and the addition of clause
(I), regarding full-time permanent employees. He pointed out that everything
else is as it was. At this time Donatus Vetsch made the motion to approve the
amended personnel policy. Don Cornelius seconded the motion. All were in favor
and the motion carried.
The Council discussed the Park Ordinance No. 1990-5; ON ORDINANCE
AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 1989-15 ENTITLED "AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING RULES AND
REGULATIONS GOVERNING CITY PARKS AND PROVIDING A PENALTY FOR VIOLATION
THEREOF" BY PROHIBITING THE OPERATION OF CERTAIN VEHICLES AND DEVICES ON PAVED
TRAILS. The purpose of the amendment was to stipulate the use of certain
vehicles and devices that would be prohibited in the Four Seasons park. As
requested at the July 2nd meeting, Bob had drafted the Ordinance to prohibit
the use of motor vehicles, motorcycles or motorized bicycles, bicycles,
all -terrain vehicles, snowmobiles and skateboards.
There was several minutes of discussion between the Council and members
of the community regarding the prohibiting of bikes in the park. It was
i- pointed out that because of this parks location that there may be people who
will want to take their small children down to the park to ride bikes and that
the ordinance would not allow this. After some addition discussion it was a
agreed that the City would try allowing bikes on the paths, but that if there
are problems that arise that the ordinance could be amended in the future.
Hearing no other comments or discussion, a motion was made by Donatus Vetsch,
to approve Ordinance No. 1990-5; ON ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE N0. 1989-15
ENTITLED "AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING RULES AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING CITY PARKS
AND PROVIDING A PENALTY FOR VIOLATION THEREOF" BY PROHIBITING THE OPERATION OF
CERTAIN VEHICLES AND DEVICES ON PAVED TRAILS with the deletion of the word
"bicycles". Bob Braun seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion
carried.
It was suggested that because the 152 Club was looking to construct the
deck yet this summer that it might be advisable to adopt the ordinance
Pertaining to the sale of intoxicating liquor outdoor prior to the August 6th
Council meeting so that they could start the construction of the deck. A
motion was then made by Don Cornelius to accept the Ordinance 1990-6; AN
ORDINANCE REGULATING THE USE OF OUTDOOR AREAS OF ON -SALE INTOXICATING LIQUORLICENSE PREMISES AND PROVIDING A PENALTY FOR VIOLATION THEREOF with changes.
The motion was seconded by Jim Krystosek. All were in favor and the motion
carried.
Next three members of the Albertville Fire Department, Eugene Valerius,
Rick Wacker, and Dave Vetsch were present to request that the Council approve
PAGE 6
f additional compensation for the firemen who go through the EMT and First
Responder classes in addition to the regular training completed as a
requirement of being on the Fire Department. They explained that the total
hours put in for the EMT training is 110 classroom hours and 100 hours study
time at home. The First Responders class has 40 classroom and 40 home study.
The cost of the EMT training is $250.00 and the First response class is
$125.00. Every two years they can attend refresher classes at half price.
The Fire Department feels that the volunteers who take these classes,
should be reimburse for the cost of the training. After some discussion Don
Cornelius made a motion to to pay for EMT and 1st Response training upon
completion and certification of the course. Jim Krystosek seconded the motion.
All were in favor and the motion carried.
The members of the Fire Department then raised the issue of the condition
of the water truck. They explained that the truck is 15 years old with 95,000
miles on it. The brakes constantly go out, it does not start easily, it does
not have enough generating power, and they also feel that 12,000 gallon
capacity is not enough for many of their calls.
They requested that the Council please consider purchasing a new unit.
Their request is for the largest water capacity single axle chases truck
available. They estimated the cost would be in the range of $65,000.00 and
$70,000.00.
Maureen Pointed out that the 1991 budget has allowed for a new truck.
The firemen said that by the time all the pricing of trucks, and the ordering
of the new truck was complete, it would be 1991. So would it not be better to
not spend a lot of money on the old truck, and save it for a new one.
Gary Schwenafeier said that the Fire Department has to have something
now. So they will have to repair the one they have. In the mean time he
suggested that the men check into the costs of a new truck.
Maureen pointed out that if the Department did not do something about the
Problem, the Department could loose their rating.
Jim Krystosek offered to check into some prices on an 18,000 gallon,
single axle truck with 2 built in 8" X 8" outlets.
Dave Vetsch said that the Department would also form a committee to
check into the matter. All agreed and the issue was tabled.
The Council then reviewed the Bills to be Paid. Jim Krystosek made a
motion to Pay the bills, check number 10662-10696. Bob Braun seconded the
motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.
Bob Miller then informed the Council that the new owners of Wright
Recycling should sign a new contract with the City since the original contract
was with other owners. He also made note that the July Payment be sent to the
old owners.
PAGE 7
r- The Council then discussed the Park Shelter at the new park. The Lion's
Club has agreed to put in the shelter, and will put it in on the lower pad,
which is closest to the parking lot and the proposed restroom facilities.
The next item on the agenda was the dumping of item on the Eull Concrete
Site. Donatus Vetsch informed the Council that he went out to take pictures
and look at the problem. He said that people have been dumping Iron, Pump
tanks, different crating materials and other misc. materials.
Maureen Andrews suggested that Kevin Mealhouse go out and inspect the
problem and follow through with appropriate action. There was no further
discussion and the issue tabled till the next meeting when Kevin could update
the Council of what he feels should be done.
Next the Council reviewed a letter received Monticello's Animal Control
Shelter. The letter states the increase needed to cover the costs of
impounding animals. The current fee is $6.75 per day and effective August 1,
1990 the rate will be $7.25 per day.
The issue of the water drainage problem in Frankfort Township was then
discussed by the Council. Frankfort Township has asked The City of
Albertville to share in 1/3 the cost to have a feasibility study done to
resolve the water drainage problem. The cost of a study would be approximately
$5,000.00 - $8,000.00 dollars. Their wish is to have the study include the
land all the way to the river. The Council felt that if the City was going to
participate in the feasibility study that it should include the possibility of
outletting the storm water generated on the south side of the freeway through
the major storm sewer system located in Barthel's Industrial Park.
The Council discussed at length, different possibilities and ideas.
There was confusion as to what exactly Frankfort Township's wishes are.
Bob Miller said that the City of Albertville should write a letter to
Frankfort Township asking them to respond with a letter of intent. That way
there will be some documentation generated, and will show Frankfort Township
that the City is not ignoring them, as well as the fact that the City of
Albertville wishes to resolve the problem.
After more discussion the Council felt that the City of Albertville
should not have to pay for 1/3 of the expense of the Feasibility study, but
would be willing to share their fair share. It would all depend on how much
of the study included our land.
The next item on the agenda was the approval of the Lion's gambling
license. Bob Braun made the motion to approve the license. Don Cornelius
seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.
In other business Maureen Andrews informed the Council that she had
received a bid on a canopy for the front door. The canopy would be like the
one that Vetsch Custom Cabinets has on their building. The cost would run
$1,000.00 for the door and $125.00 for each window and a gutter on the back
door.
PAGE 8
Mayor Gary Schwenzfeier felt that we could have a nice "A" shaped
covering over the steps with braces that extend back to the building to hold
it up. This would eliminate any posts that could be hazardous or a nuisance.
He said that he had discussed this project with Ken Wacker and he felt that
the project could be completed, including labor for under $300.00 dollars.
The Council then discussed the dimensions that the canopy should be. Gary
felt that it should be at least extend 8" to 12" beyond the front of the
steps, yet still stay under the roof line.
Maureen raised the question as to what kind of railing the Council felt
the steps should have. Donatus said that he would contact Ralph Lahn to get
some quotes on railing.
Maureen inform the Council that Gary and Donatus had worked on the
landscaping of the building today.
Gary said that there were some trees to be put in yet and that it should
be done some time this week.
At that time Donatus made the motion to adjourn the meeting. Don
Cornelius seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.
CITY OF ALBERTVILLE

PHONE: (612) 497-3384
The regi1ar meeting of the Albertville City C uncil was called to order
by Mayor Gary Schwenzfeier. Members present included Bob Braun, Jim Krystosek,
Donatus Vetsch, and Ion Cornelius. Others present included Maureen Andrews,
Bob Miller, There Meyer, Ken Lindsay, and Jackie Peterson.
The agenda for the evening`s meeting was reviewed by the Council. A
motion was made for approval of the agenda by Dan Cornelius, and seconded by
Donatus Vetsch. All were in favor and the motion carried.
The minutes of the June 18th meeting were reviewed. Keen noted that the
discussion on the discharging of the Waste Water Treatment Facility was
incorrect. He stated that the discussion should have noted that it was the
first discharge that was completed and not the second one. Hearing no other
comments a motion was made to approve the minutes. The motion was made by Don
Cornelius and seconded by Donatus Vetsch. All were in favor and the motion
carried.
The first item on the agenda was maintenance_
Ken Lindsay informed the Council that the bla,cktopping of paths in the
Four Season Park was completed. Don Cornelius pointed out that he felt that
there were some bad spots that need to be coed. Kean and Jim Krystosek said
that they would go out and check it.
Ken also pointed out that the park equipment will be installed in the
next few weeks, depending on if the weather reams nice.
There was some discussion regarding the leaky water fountain in the City
Park and what steps were being taken to correct the Problem. Donates said
that a member of the Jaycees had raised the question of why the fountain was
not working with him.
Ken noted that they had had Problems in the fall trying to get the water
shut off and when they tried to reopen it in the spring they could not get the
Make our Cirv........ Your Cite
We invite Home, Industry, Business
valve on again. It was also noted that the wrench was to short to use to turn
the fountain on and off. He said that a piece could be added on rather than
spending $85.00 for a new wrench. It was also noted that Ken should have a
key so that he could go in and fix it. Ken said that the cap had been knock
off during mowing last year but it had been replaced and that it should be
okay.
Ken brought up the fact that the pump from Norther has not come in yet,
but they have brought one in to use in the mean time. Maureen then informed
the Council that she received a call from Northern and that the pump was rely
and sitting on the dock.
Mayor Gary Schwenzfei_er asked Ken to explain to the Council the need for
a Phosphorous Test Kit. Ken explained that the kit would allow for on -site
testing of phosphorous levels instead of having to wait until the test results
come back from the testing company. It was pointed out that with the kit the
City could start the alum treatment process as soon as the level was known,
which would likely cut down on the time it will take to complete the discharge
process. Kan rooted that the kit oasts approximately $250.20.
There was also some discussion regarding the problem of not meeting
limits for discharging this year. It was pointed out that the likely cause
for the problem arises because of a high algae problem which the ponds have
been experiencing since last year. Some reasons that were suggested as
reasons that the City is having problems.
1. There could be a large carp population in cell 3 of the pond. Noting
that last fall approximately 200 carp were moved from the system.
It has been suggested that carp is likely eating the Daphney, which
is a bug that eats the algae which in turn keeps the phosphorous
level down.
2. There could be a chemical reaction between the the copper sulfate,
used to reduce the algae, and the liquid alum, which could be causing
the alum not to work as effectively.
It was suggested that if the problem is found to be that the carp
population that it might be advisable to see about doing a "chemical kill" on
the fish. It was noted that this may not be allowed because of DNR
requLisements regarding carry over, since the pond water is discharged into the
lake and out through the creek.
The question was raised whether or not something could be being
discharged into the sanitary sewer system and that is why the problem has
arisen at the pond. It was noted that if a solution is not found to the
problem then this possibility might need to be explored.
After further discussion, a motion was made by Donatus Vetsch to purchase
a Phosphorus Test Kit. The motion was seconded by Don Cornelius. All were in
favor and the motion carried.
The next item discussed was the letter from Bob Miller regarding vacation
pay and sick leave for persons who previously worked for the City,
Page 2
specifically the hiring of Mike Rutkowski who worked 11 months for the City, a
year earlier.
The question that had been raised regarding what vacation and sick leave
benefits is a new employee eligible for when they had been employed by the
City at an earlier date, having left the position in good standing? Can the
previous benefits earned to attributed to the current employment therefore
making them eligible sooner for their vacation and sick leave benefits?
In the letter to the Council from the City Attorney, Bob Miller, it was
suggested that the philosophy of the Personnel Policy would indicate that it
was intended to provide vacation pay based upon the total time that a person
has worked for the City. There is noting in the language that says that a
break in service before one year is completed would require the employee to
forfeit his days worked towards accruing vacation and sick leave pay. He
further noted that if the person is deemed fit for municipal employment during
both the initial employment phase and a subsequent re-employment, that it
would seem that a reasonable interpretation would be that the employee would
be allowed all his "accrued" vacation and sick leave as an appropriate "fringe
benefit".
Bob noted that if the Council agreed with this interruption that Mike
Rutkowski's 11 months of previous service would be coated towards his accrued
time. He pointed out that the Council could stipulate special conditions
regarding the use of the time during the probationary period for the new
position.
Bob suggested that the clarification of the issue should be so noted in
the Personnel Policy, in the event the matter should ever arise again.
It was suggested as a solution to the confusion that Mike's previous time
be counted towards vacation and sick leave but not allow it to be used until
after the six months probationary period has been completed.
Hearing no other questions or comments, a motion was made allowing Mike
Rutkowski's previous service (11 months) to be counted towards his first year
vacation and sick leave with the stipulation that it can not be used until
after his six month probationary period. The motion was made by Kim Krystosek
and seconded by Donates Vetsch. All were in favor and the motion carried.
Bob then said that he will draft an amendment to be reviewed at the next
meeting.
The issue of temporary full time employees came up. What would the policy
be towards their time? Bob said that he would look into the matter.
Donates asked Bob if he will then draft an amendment to clarify any
questions regarding full time/part time in the future. With no further
discussion the issue was tabled till the next Council meeting.
The issue of purchasing radios for the Maintenance Department was
discussed next. The question of new verses used was raised by the Council.
WERE
Mayor Gary Schwenzfeier that he has done some checking into the price of
new radios. He said that one new radio runs about $400.00 - $500.00 each. He
said the price for 3 Midland radios would be $1,579.00 with everything that is
needed, plus a warrantee of 2 - 5 years depending on the brand purchased. He
also pointed out that if we purchased just 3 mobile radios for now, we can
always expand at a later date. It was noted that one radio would be used as a
base in the City Hall while the other two would be used in the City trucks
(pickup and snow plow).
It was noted that Jim Krystosek had brought some radios for the Council
to look at. He informed the Council that he had 7 units which include: 4
three year old Midland and 2 Standard mobile radios, plus 1 portable radio.
He said that he would sell them to the City for $1,500.00-
Ken noted that he would like to see a base radio in the shop so that
there would be communication between the shop and the the vehicles_ It was
pointed out that if new radios were purchased that this option will have to be
held off on.
As part of the discussion regarding the Purchase of the used equipment
there was the issue of needing to replace the crystals so that the radios
would nun on our frequency. If we need to buy new crystals for the radios,
how much will this cost.
There was a great deal of discussion regarding the warranty issue and
whether or not there was any merit for concern regarding the same. It was
pointed out that these radios are solid state and there are not alot of things
that can go wrong with them.
After some further discussion it was agreed that Jim would hold the
radios till the next meeting, when a decision could be made. There was no
further discussion in this matter and the issue was tabled till the next
meeting.
Norman Barthel was at the meeting to expressed his concern regarding the
had had someone come out site elevation so that the water would drain out to
Main Avenue. Bob informed the Council that it appeared that there needed to
be some additional corrections need to be made on the two developed lots east
of his. It was pointed out that this work was scheduled for Thursday.
Thor Meyer asked Maureen if she received a copy of the 100% Petition for
Improvements from Ken Barthel. It was noted that the form had been pickup but
not returned at the time of the meeting.
Hearing no other comments a motion was made by Bob Braxul to order the
Feasibility Study for PARKS EDGE'S Street and Utility Improvements. Jim
Krystosek seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.
There was discussion on the Kohnen bill regarding inspection services.
Bob informed the Comcil that staff had reviewed the fees and was requesting
that the letter be sent to Kohnen with the findings. The following is a
breakdown of the billing:
Schedule - A: $ 43,848.37
2,842.41
Schedule - B: $ 4,788.75
Scale - C : $ 6,275.58
Gary questioned whether or not there was any exposure to the City if some
of the earlier questioned permits were paid. Bob noted that Koohnen had signed
off on the permits limiting the City"s exposure. It was further noted that
the purpose of the inspection is for the protection of the City not the
contractor or the owner.
After some discussion the issue of Building permits was tabled.
The Council discussed the issue of adopting an ordinance for the use of
the new park's walkways. The ordinance would state that there would not any
motorized vehicles, skate boards or bikes allowed on the paths. The reason
being, the grade of the paths are to great, and the chance of persons getting
injured are to great. If the ordinance is in place and someone violates it and
should get hurt, then the City could not be held liable for their injury.
Ken Lindsay said that he has offered the signs for the paths. He also
informed the Council that the signs were ordered stating the restricted items
for the paths. He said he made some temporary signs and has put them up, till
the new ones come in. Bob Miller was directed to make the changes to the
existing ordinance to reflect these stipulations.
Mike Zachman, one of the owners of the 152 Club, presented his idea of a
Garden Bar with a patio to the Council. He wanted to know what he would need
to do as far as the City Ordinances are stated.
Kevin Mealhouse the Building Inspector for the City, said he would need a
completely fenced in patio. The patio would have to be flat with the ground.
The plans would also show that they would still be on their own property.
The issue of music and noise was brought up. After some discussion some
of the ideas were that the the fencing must have internal Lighting, and the
music speakers had to be placed in such a way that the music would be directed
internally, rather than outward towards neighbors. Also that serving of any
drinks should be not permitted after a reasonable hour, such as 1O:00 or 11:00
p.m.
It was decided that an ordinance would be prepared. by Bob Miller and
reviewed at the next meeting. There was no further discussion and the issue
was tabled.
The issue of the vacation of the old 152 Right-of-Way`s Public Hearing
was discussed. It was decided that a public hearing would be held on August
6th, 1990, at 7:00 P.M.
PAGE 5
Prior to the meeting the Council had had an opportunity to see the new
chairs being considered for the Conference Rocco. Mayor Schwenzfeier asked if
the Council felt the price of the new conference chairs was acoeptable. Ion
Cornelius made a motion to buy 8 new chairs at $207.00 each. Donatus Vetsch
seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.
The Council reviewed the Income and Bills to be paid. A motion was made
by Donatus Vetsch to pay the bills. The motion was seconded by Don Cornelius.
All were in favor and checks 10619 through 10667 were approved.
The resignation of Steve Klitzka as Park Board President was reviewed.
Lisa Shulstad also has conflicting schedules with the board meetings. The
board has two vacancies that need to be put in the paper and filled.
The issue of the water drainage problem in Frankfort Township was briefly
discussed. It is apparent that the water is draining and the water level is
going down.
Thore noted that the issue of the sealcoating job done last year has been
turned over to the bond company and nothing new has been heard regarding the
matter. There was some discussion regarding the job done with the red rock,
it appears that there may have been more oil applied then necessary, but that
it does effect the finished job.
A motion was made by Don Cornelius to adjourn the meeting. Jim Krystosek
seconded the motion. All were in favor and the motion carried.

PLANNING REPORT
TO: Maureen Andrews
FROM: Bob Kirmis/David Licht
DATE: 12 July 1990
RE: Albertville - Lindsay Storage Shed
FILE NO: 163.06 - 90.09
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation:
Based upon .-the review by our.office as documented in the text of
this report, we find no justification for approval of the Lindsay
variance request as no qualifying hardship has been demonstrated
to warrant deviation from ordinance standards. The only
rationale evidence for support of the request is to eliminate
existing non -conforming buildings, one of which is especially
substandard and possibly subject to removal under the Building
Code, plus elimination of improper outside storage which is a
current zoning violation. These situations are not viewed as a
basis for a variance and as a consequence our office recommends
denial of the request as approval is unjustified per ordinance
criteria and allowing the deviation would establish a
questionable precedent for future similar situations. Moreover,
we would recommend code enforcement measures be pursued relative
to the existing buildings and outside storage.
Alternative Action:
Should the City decide the request is warranted, we would
recommend that the variance be approved with the understanding
that the Zoning Ordinance will be modified to allow all other
property owners with the same privilege as will be given to the
applicant. Furthermore, the approval be contingent upon the
following stipulations:
4601 Excelsior Blvd. - Suite 410 - Minneapolis, MN 55416 - (612) 925-9420 - Fax 925-2721
1. All existing accessory structures are removed from the site.
2. The proposed storage shed is relocated to lie at least 10
feet from the subject property's rear lot line.
3. The City initiate code enforcement efforts which shall
ensure that a no outdoor storage of debris considered
inappropriate for a residential area is allowed on site.
Background:
Mr. Kenneth Lindsay has requested City approval of a variance to
allow the construction of a 280 square foot storage shed within
the rear yard of his property located at 11564 51st Street. The
proposed storage shed exceeds the maximum 150 square foot size
requirement for accessory buildings set forth within the City
Zoning Ordinance. The said storage shed would replace three
individual storage sheds which currently inhabit the applicant's
rear yard. The subject site is zoned "R-3", Residential Single
and Two Family.
Attached for reference:
Exhibit A - Site Location
Exhibit B - Site Plan
Exhibit C - Building Elevations
Exhibit D - Site Photos
ISSUES ANALYSIS
Existing Conditions. As shown on the submitted site plan, the
applicant's rear yard currently holds three separate storage
structures. The structures currently lie in varied states of
disrepair and are flanked by a variety of outdoor storage
materials including small trailers, wheel barrows, lumber, wire
fencing, a cement mixer, etc. (see Exhibit D for site photos).
The following is a summary of the existing storage structures
data.
K4
Setback

Size Property Line Materials Condition
East 8'x 10' 2 feet Metal Fair to

Central 141x 14' 2 feet Wooden Lap Poor
Building (196 sf) Siding
West 12'x 10' 8 feet Metal Fair to
Building (120 sf) Seam Poor
Total Accessory
Building
Storage Area 396 square feet
The existing structures upon Mr. Lindsay's lot exhibit a number
of nonconformities with ordinance standards relating to
accessory structures.
1. According to Section 1000.4 (b) 5, no accessory structure
should occupy more than 150 square feet. At 196 square feet
in size the central building exceeds the standard.
2. Section 1000.4 (b) 8 states that no accessory structure
shall be set back less than 10 feet from a rear lot line.
All existing structures violate this requirement.
3. According to Section 1000.4 (b) 7 of the Ordinance, no
permit shall be issued for the construction of more than one
accessory building except via conditional use permit. If
the multiple structures have not been allowed via a CUP,
they obviously do not meet this requirement.
As evidenced above, the subject lot's existing accessory
structures exhibit a number of concerns relating to conformance
with ordinance requirements.
Variance Evaluation Criteria. As mentioned previously, the
applicant has submitted a request to construct a 280 square foot
accessory structure within his rear yard. According to Section
1000.4 (b) of the City Zoning Ordinance, no accessory building
for a single family dwelling shall occupy more than 150 square
feet when accompanied by an attached garage on the same lot.
3
According to Section 500.1 (2) of the City Zoning Ordinance, a
variance shall not be granted unless it can be demonstrated that:
a. Undue hardship will result if the variance is denied due to
the existence of special conditions and circumstances which
are peculiar to the land, structure or building involved.
1. Special conditions may include exceptional topographic
or water conditions or, in the case of an existing lot
or parcel of record, narrowness, shallowness,
insufficient area or shape of the property.
2. Undue hardship caused by the special conditions and
circumstances may not be solely economic in nature, if
a reasonable use of the property exists under the terms
of this Chapter.
3. Special conditions and circumstances causing undue
hardship shall not be a result of lot size or building
location when the lot qualifies as a buildable parcel.
(Also see Section 1000.3 (c) of this Chapter.)
b. Literal interpretation of the provisions of this Chapter
would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by
other properties in the same district under the terms of
this Chapter, or deny the applicant the ability to put the
property in question to a reasonable use.
C. The special conditions and circumstances causing the undue
hardship do not result from the actions of the applicant.
d. Granting the variance requested will not confer on the
applicant any special privilege that is denied by this
Chapter to other lands, structures or buildings in the same
district.
e. The request is not a use variance.
f. Variance requested is the minimum variance necessary to
accomplish the intended purpose of the applicant.
Building Proposal. As shown on the submitted site and
elevational plans, the applicant has proposed the construction of
a 280 square foot barn shaped storage shed approximately 2 feet
from the subject property's rear lot line. At 16 feet in height,
the structure would comply with the maximum R-3 height
requirement of 16 feet.
.19
The applicant contends that the replacement of the three existing
storage sheds with one newly constructed large shed shall improve
the look of his rear yard. The applicant has also gained
substantial neighborhood support of his proposal.
Construction of a new shed would likely improve area aesthetics
and would lessen an existing nonconforming condition by reducing
the total amount of on -site accessory storage area from 396 to
280 square feet. For these reasons, the City may wish to
consider approval of the applicant's request.
While it may be true that construction of the new building would
present a visual improvement of the site and would reduce total
on -site accessory building area, the fact that the structure
exceeds ordinance size requirements and may set an unwanted
precedent. In addition, there is no guarantee that the newer,
larger shed will be properly maintained nor any demonstration of
hardship which would warrant the granting of the variance
request. For these reasons, the City may wish to deny the
applicants request. Because justification appears apparent for
either the approval or denial of the applicant's request,
judgement is deemed a matter of City policy to be determined by
City officials.
Setbacks. As shown on the applicant's site plan, the proposed
storage shed would lie approximately two feet from the subject
property's rear lot line. According to Section 1000.4 (b) 8 of
the City Zoning Ordinance, the setback of an accessory building
may not be less than 10 feet from a rear lot line. If the City
finds the building size variance acceptable, the accessory
structure should be relocated to conform to the stated 10 foot
setback requirement.
Code Enforcement. It is assumed that neighborhood support of the
variance request hinges on the anticipated visual improvement of
the subject site. It should be recognized that the present
visual concerns which exist upon the applicant's property relate
primarily to building maintenance and outdoor storage issues,
both of which relate to primary code enforcement and are not
typically justification for the granting of a variance. As such,
it is recommended that whether or not the variance is granted,
code enforcement be undertaken to remove the outdoor storage of
debris judged inappropriate for a residential area (i.e., wheel
barrows, wire rolled fencing, small trailers, cement mixer,
etc.).
5
CONCLUSION
Based on the preceding review, our office sees no demonstration
of hardship which would warrant the granting of a variance to
allow an accessory structure to exceed maximum size requirements.
However, it is recognized that the proposed accessory structure
would likely improve an existing non -conforming conditio by
aesthetically improving the site and reducing the existing
accessory storage area.
As such, a determination regarding the acceptability of the
variance request is deemed a matter of City policy to be judged
by City officials. If the City finds the request acceptable,
approval should be subject to those conditions listed in the
Executive Summary of this report.

Mr. David Licht of Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc. reviewed with
the Commission the findings of the Planner's Report.
David briefly pointed out that the request to allow the construction of a
280 square foot storage shed with the rear yard of the Ken Lindsay's property.
The proposed storage shed exceeds the maxims++ 150 square feet size requirement
for accessory buildings set forth within the City Zoning Ordinance. The
intent of the request is to replace three existing sheds which equal 390
square feet which exist on the site.
David went on to point out that existing conditions of the site, noting
the outside storage of a variety of materials which include small trailers,
wheel barrows, lumber, wire fencing, a cement mixer etc., along with the three
separate storage structures that are in varied states of disrepair. The
report provided a breakdown of these buildings and some of the nonconformities
with the ordinance standards relating to accessory buildings. David reviewed
these points with the Planning Commission:

The report went on to list a number of nonaonformities with ordinance
standards, which included the following:
1. According to Section WW.4 (b) 5, no accessory structure should
occupy more than 150 square feet. At 196 square feet in size the
central building exceeds the standard.
2. Section 100.4 (b) 8 states that no accessory structure shall be set
back less than 10 feet from the rear lot line. All existing
structures violate this requirement.
3. According to Section 1W.4 (b) 7 of the Ordinance, no permit shall be
issued for the construction of more than one accessory building
except via conditional use permit. If the multiple structures have
not been allowed via a CUP, they obviously do not meet this
requirement.
It was also noted that there was a clear violation of the ordinance
regarding outside storage of materials, as well.
It was noted that the review of the existing buildings and site
conditions were not done as an official review, but David noted that under the
Housing Maintenance Ordinance the City has adopted that it should be
undertaken in the near future.
David went on to discuss the Variance Evaluation Criteria.
According to Section 100.4 (b) of the City Zoning Ordinance, no accessory
building for a single family dwelling shall occupy more than 150 square feet
when accompanied by an attached garage on the same lot.
According to Section 500.1 of the City Zoning Ordinance, a variance shall
not be granted unless it can be demonstrated that:
a. Undue ha dah _— will result if the variance is denied due to the
of special conditions and circumstances which are
to the land, structure or building invo ed.
1. Serial conditionsr may include �oept �l topographic or water
conditions or, in the case of an ej�u 1 of or r+�w.ol of
record ��s, shallowness, insufficient area or shape of
-the property.
2. Undue hardship caused by the special conditions and circumstances
may not be solely economic in nature, if a reasonable use of the
property exists under the terns of this Chapter.
3. Special conditions and circumstances causing undue hardship shall
not be a result of loot size of building location when the lot
qualifies as a buildable parcel. ( Also see Section 1000.3 (c) of
this Chapter.)
•�et•
b. Literal interpretation of the provisions of this Chapter would
deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties
in the same district under the terms of this Chapter, or deny the
applicant the ability to put the property in question to a reasonable
use.
c. The special conditions and circumstances causing the undue hardship
do not result from the actions of the applicant.
d. Granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any
special privilege that is denied by this Chapter to other lands,
structures or buildings in the same district.
e. The request is not a use variance.
f. Variance request is the minimum variance necessary to accomplish the
intended purpose of the applicant.
The report goes on to describe what is proposed for the site. It is noted
that the applicant has proposed the construction of a 280 square foot barn
shaped shed approi +a, feet the subject property's rear lot line. At
16 feet in height, the structure would comply with the maximum R-3 height
requixiement of 16 feet.
The applicant contends that the replacement of the three existing storage
sheds with one newly constructed large shed would improve the look of the rear
yard and has gained substantial neighborhood support for the proposal.
The report does not deny the this point, rooting that it would likely
improve the area aesthetics and would lessen an existing nonconforming
condition by reducing the total amount of on -site accessory storage area from
396 to 280 square feet. It is suggested for these reasons, the City may wish
to consider approval of the applicant-s request.
The report goes on to point out that the construction of the new building
would present a visual improvement of the site and would reduce total on -site
accessory building area, the fact that the structures exceeds ordinances size
requi ements and may set an unwanted precedent. Additionally, there is no
guarantee that the newer, larger shed will be properly maintained not any
demonstration of hardship which would warrant the granting of the variance
Because justification, appears apparent for either the approval or denial of
the applicant's request, judgement is deemed a matter of City policy to be
determined by City officials.
It was suggested that if the variance is approved that the setback of the
accessory building should be relocated to conform to the state 10 foot setback
requirement set forth in the ordinance.
In the area of code enforcement, it is assumed that the neighborhood
support of the variance request hinges on the anticipated visual improvement
of the site. It should be recognized that the present visual concerns which
;.ti.
exist upon the applicant's property relate primarily to building maintenance
and outdoor storage issues, both of which relate to primary code enforcement
and are not typically justification for the granting of a variance. As such is
is recommended that whether or not the variance is granted, code enforcement
be undertaken to remove the outdoor storage of debris judged inappropriate for
a residential area (i.e., wheel barrows, wire rolled fencing, small trailers,
cement mixer, etc.)
Based on the findings of the review, the planners sees no demonstration
of hardship which would warrant the granting of a variance to allow an
accessory structure to exceed maximum size requirements. however, it is
recognized that the proposed accessory structure would likely improve an
existing nonconforming condition by aesthetically improving the site and
reducing the existing accessory storage area.
As such, a determination regarding the acceptability of the variance
request is deemed a matter of City policy to be judged by City officials. If
the City finds the request acceptable, approval should be subject to the
following conditions:
1. All existing accessory structures are removed from the site.
2. The proposed storage shed is relocated to lie at least 10 feet from
the subject property`s rear lot line.
3. The City initiate code enforcement efforts which shall ensure that no
outdoor storage of debris considered inappropriate for a residential
area is allowed on site.
4. The removal of the west driveway which is an existing nonconformity.
5. That a complete site check be preformed to bring the balance of the
property into ordinance conformity. Noting that the front yard
setback is not allowed for storage of vehicles.
At this time the hearing was opened to the audience for discussion.
Ken Lindsay stated for the record that the purpose of the application was
so he could remove the existing sheds and construct a new one to improve the
condition of his rear yard.
He questions David on point of the size of the new structure, asking what
size would be acceptable if the 280 square foot one was deemed not to be.
David noted that according to the ordinance that 150 square feet of accessory
building is allowable under the ordinance.
At this time a letter from Mr. Timothy Raab was read into the minutes
objecting to request, noting that he did not know what the impact the new
structure would have on his property value, nor that there was no guarantee
that the bigger shed would be properly maintained given the current condition
of the site.
LeRoy Bering raised the question regarding the size of Ken's existing
garage. He was informed that the existing garage is 24' X 24'. He than asked
if an addition to the garage would be allowed considering the fact that it
currently sits four feet from the property line. David noted that if an
addition was put on the garage the setback would be allowed to be continued
because of its existing location. He then asked how large the garage could
be? David noted that the combination of garage and storage could equal 900
square feet.
David again noted that there were two matters for the Planning Commission
to consider, the first being should the variance be allowed and secondly the
policy issue of how much accessory use should be allowed in a residential
neighborhood. It was also pointed out that if the variance is granted that
there should be a directive to change the zoning ordinance, because of the
precedent the granting of the variance would have.
David reminded the Planning Commission that regardless to whether or not
the variance is granted that the issue of outside storage would need to be
reviewed and removed once the findings had been made.
It was also noted that the structure standards of the central building
was questionable and would need to inspected to see if it was structurally
sound.
Ken was asked by one of the neighbors what types of materials would be
used on the new shed. He stated that he would be using a mix of some used and
new materials that had been approved by the building inspector, but that it
would be sided in like material as the house.
A comment was made by a neighbor regarding the condition of Ken"s mowers,
and whether or not his son would continue with his lawn mowing service, if the
lawn mowers would be driven back and forth between the houses.
David asked Ken how much on -site storage was needed, questioning whether
or not the equipment was used for on -site purposes. Ken noted that his son
mows one yard , noting that he did not feel that this issue should have any
bearing on the discussion. It was noted that issue of home occupancy business
could have a bearing on the matter because it requires a conditional use
permit.
Ken was asked by David how many mowers did he own? Ken informed him that
he currently owned four mowers, but that he is planning on selling two of them
once the market is favorable to sell them.
David noted the the intent of the ordinance regarding accessory buildings
is to keep an open area feeling in platted residential areas. Mr. Jerry Baron
stated that he feels with the growth that the City is experience that it is
important to keep as munch open space available as possible so that the
community does not get the feeling of being closed in and crowded.
David noted that because this area is a platted urban area, an approval
of the variance would dictate an change in policy and should be reflected in
the ordinance. The Planning C m m-fission was asked to evaluate the impact of a
situational such as this one.
• N�
Maureen raised the question regarding whether or not the 25% yard
coverage should be changed. David stated that he did not believe so because
it is a protection device to keep some type of uniformity in a residential
setting, in much the same way the the front and side yard setbacks do.
Ken questioned the definition of "Hardship"? It was noted that hardship
is defined under Minnesota State Statute and references conditions that are
physical in nature and are unique to a given property.
Mr. Rob Farrim state that he felt that the variance was not hurting
anyone else and that he felt it should be granted since it would improve the
condition of the yard.
It was noted by one of the neighbors that the existing three sheds equal
396 square feet and now Ken is proposing 280 square feet on the basis that he
want to improve the yard and clean up the outside storage, stating that he did
not feel that this did not make any sense.
The issue of outside storage was discussed in more detail. It was noted
the Section 100.15 defines outside storage and that through observation the
site was found to be nonconformity.
Ken Lindsay requested an explanation of why the second driveway would
have to be removed, stating that he did not feel that it had anything to do
with the request. David pointed out that the storage of the motorhame and
pickup on the second driveway is in violation of the ordinance. David pointed
out that Ken had brought in an application to deviate from the standard which
gives the City the authority to require all nonconfozmities be brought up to
code.
It was further noted that the second driveway was put in likely under the
old ordinance and was therefore "grandfathered in" unless conditions are to
change. It was pointed out that if the variance is granted than conditions
will have in fact been changed and then the driveway would be considered
nonconforming. David stated that Ken would be trading storage for storage.
It was also noted the whether or not the variance is granted that is the
planners recommendation that the code enforcement needs to be addressed.
It was pointed out that if no action is taken the three buildings could
stay as they are, unless they are found to structurally substandard.
Hearing no other questions or comments a motion was made to close the
hearing. The motion was made by Rick Bishop and seconded by LeRoy Berning.
All were in favor and the motion carried.
A motion was then made to recommend to the Council the application for
variance be denied on the based of the planner-s recommendation, noting that
the code enforcement nt be undertaken once the Council had made a final ruling on
the matter. The motion was made by Rick Bishop and seconded by LeRoy Berning.
All were in favor and the motion carried.
It was noted that the matter would be brought before the Council on
Monday July 16, 1990.
The public hearing for the Ordinance Amendment regarding the matter of
Adult Entertainment was called to order. The notice of the hearing was duly
read.
It was suggested that the hearing be continued Lentil a later date,
because David is still working on the ordinance and the City of Ramsey is
still being challenged on the constitutionality of the ordinance.
A motion was made to continue the hearing Lentil the October meeting. The
motion was made by Rick Bishop and seconded by LeRoy Berning. All were in
favor and the motion carried.
A motion was made to adjourn the meeting. The motion was made by Rick
Bishop and seconded by LeRoy Berning. All were in favor and the motion
carried_
City of Albertville
Planning & Zoning
In regard to variance applied for:
I will not be able to attend the July 12th hearing on the
variance applied for by K. Lindsay because of work commitment.
I do however contest any variation from current codes and
ordinances established by the City Albertville.
I contest the variation because of the unknown impact on my
property value and I do not wish to have this size structure in
view of. my backyard. I feel the current sheds are poorly
maintained and there is no guarantee this bigger shed will be
properly maintained.
Sincerely,

Re: Parksedge Addition
Street and Utility Improvements
Albertville, MN
Honorable Mayor and City Council:
As requested, we have completed the Feasibility Study for
the above -referenced project. The proposed project will consist
of extending sanitary sewer, watermain and bituminous streets
with concrete curb and gutter through the proposed Parksedge
Addition development. The proposed project is a replat of that
part of Lot 1, Block 6, Barthel's Industrial Park, lying south of
the Barthel Maple Hills Addition. The site abuts Barthel
Industrial Drive and is located in the Northeast Quarter of the
Southeast Quarter of Section 1, Township 120, Range 24, Wright
County, Minnesota. See Attachment No. 1.
SANITARY SEWER
Parksedge Addition will be served by the existing sanitary
sewer on Barthel Industrial Drive. A new manhole will be needed
to be cut into the existing line, which is of ample depth to
serve this entire addition. All service connections to the
individual lots will be made from Lansing Circle and not from
Thore P. Meyer, Professional Engineer Robert Rohlin, Licensed Land Surveyor
Barthel Industrial Drive. The cost of the sanitary sewer would be
fully assessable to the Parksedge Addition. See Attachment No. 2.
WATERMAIN
The watermain would consist of the extension of the existing
8-inch service lead originally installed as an industrial site
sprinkler service. Using this existing service would eliminate
the second cutting of Barthel Industrial Drive. The watermain
will also be extended from the end of the cul-de-sac through the
walkway to connect to the existing park service line, thus
providing a water loop instead of the deadend lines for Lansing
Circle and Lorabee Circle. All water services will be made to the
main on Lansing Circle and not Barthel Industrial Drive. The cost
of the watermain and services will be fully assessed to Parksedge
Addition. See Attachment No. 3.
STORM DRAINAGE
All storm drainage within the Parksedge Addition will be
handled by surface drainage, utilizing the proposed streets as
the conveyance system. No storm sewer is being proposed. A
cross -gutter will be constructed where Lansing Circle intersects
with Barthel Industrial Drive to maintain the existing flow on
Barthel Industrial Drive and provide an outlet for Lansing
Circle.
STREETS
The street improvement will consist of 3-1-inch bituminous
pavement and surmountable concrete curb and gutter placed over a
12-inch gravel base on Lansing Circle. The boulevard section
shall be shaped to the proper cross-section with the existing
soils. It will be the responsibility of the developer to provide
the 4-inch topsoil and sod at such time the homes have been
constructed. The street contractor shall seed the existing
imaterials to provide only a temporary grass cover. See Attachment
No. 4.
We would recommend the bituminous surfacing be let in two
separate contracts. The first surfacing contract in conjunction
with the full street construction would be a 2-inch base course,
followed by a second contract, after all homes have been built,
of a 11-inch wearing course.
iThe walkway to the park area will be covered with 4-inch.
topsoil and sodded by the street contractor. All street
construction costs will be fully assessable to the Parksedge
Addition.
COST SUMMARY
The estimated costs for the above improvements are:
Sanitary sewer $18,100.00
Watermain 17,700.00
Street Construction, Phase I 23,000.00
Street Construction Final Lift 6,000.00
$64,800.00
5% Contingencies 3,240.00
18% Engineering 11,660.00
TOTAL $79,700.00
No bonding, financing, administrative or legal costs have
been included in the figures above.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the above -described improvements are feasi-
ble, should best be done as proposed, and will be a benefit to
the abutting properties. If you have any questions, please feel
free to contact me.

Re: Sanitary Sewer Trunk to STMA High School
Honorable Mayor & Council Members:
In anticipation of renewed talks concerning the providing of
sanitary sewer service to the proposed St. Michael/Albertville
High School, we would like to update the estimated construction
costs as shown in the feasibility report dated August 31, 1989.
These costs have been kept slightly high to allow for the
construction in the next year or two. The adjustments apply to
the sanitary sewer only, as the water mains already abut the
proposed high school site.
Option 1: Lift station with force main to the
existing 8" trunk on Main Street
Construction Cost $59,200
13% Eng. & 5% Contingencies 10,660
Total $ 69,860
Option 2: Partial trunk installation with lift
station & force main to Pysk's Addition
Construction Cost $135,400
13% Eng. & 5% Contingencies 24,370
Total $159,770
Option 3: Gravity sanitary sewer trunk from high
school site to existing lift station
in Sunrise Commercial Park
Construction Cost $209,200
13% Eng. & 5% Contingencies 37,660
Total $246,860
These estimated costs should be interjected into the existing
feasibility report dated August 31, 1989. If you have any

Re: Feasibility Study for Providing Water and Sewer
To the Proposed Albertville -St. Michael High School
Honorable Mayor and City Council:
As requested, we have completed the Feasibility Study for the
above -referenced project.
Project Location
The new high school would be located at the intersection of
County Roads 19 and 35. The sanitary sewer interceptor would be
located approximately halfway between Main Street and County Road
19, and would extend in approximately a north -south direction. The
high school would be located in Sections 11 and 12, Township 120,
Range 24, Wright County, Minnesota. The interceptor would be located
in Sections 1 and 12, Township 120, Range 24, Wright County,
Minnesota. The forcemain would be located in either Section 1 or
Section 12, Township 120, Range 24, Wright County, Minnesota. See
attachment No. 1.
Project Description
The project would consist of providing water and sewer services
to the proposed high school. Since an exact location of the school
building wasn't provided, we assumed a location roughly across the
road from the Joint Powers office. As part of this study, three
options are presented for extending the sanitary sewer to the site.
- Water Service
The Joint Powers Water Board previously placed a 16-inch
watermain along County Roads 35 and 19. On County Road 35 the
watermain is on the opposite side of the highway as the
proposed high school. On County Road 19 it is on the same side
of the highway. The assumed location of the high school would
require placing the service across County Road 35. The service
would be an 8-inch ductile iron pipe. The service would be
jacked and bored under the highway and placed in an 18-inch
steel casing. The service would be extended to the property
line. It would be approximately 60 feet long. Costs would be
Thore P. Meyer, Professional Engineer Robert Rohlin, Licensed Land Surveyor
less if the school building were placed closer to County Road
19, because a highway crossing would not be necessary. See
attachment No. 2.
- Option 1, Sanitary Sewer
This option would consist of placing approximately 350 feet of
8-inch PVC gravity sewer along County Road 35. At the east end
of the gravity sewer, a lift station would be placed. A 4-inch
PVC forcemain would extend from the lift station to the
existing manhole in the intersection of County Road 35 and Main
Street. The forcemain would be approximately 1540 feet long.
See attachment No. 3.
- Option 2, Sanitary Sewer
This option would consist of placing approximately 330 feet of
8-inch PVC gravity sewer along County Road 35. At the eastern
end, the gravity sewer would discharge into a proposed 10-inch
PVC sanitary sewer interceptor. The interceptor would extend
across County road 35 and northward approximately 2115 feet.
The interceptor would be jacked and bored across County Road 35
and placed in a 20-inch steel casing. At the northern end of
the interceptor, a lift station would be placed. Extending from
the lift station towards the east, a 4-inch PVC forcemain would
be placed. This would extend to an existing manhole at the
intersection of Lambert Avenue N.E. and 54th Avenue N.E. The
forcemain would be approximately 400 feet long. See attachment
No. 4.
- Option 3, Sanitary Sewer
This option would be the same as option 2 up to where the
proposed lift station would be located. At this point, instead
of placing the lift station, the interceptor would continue
northward approximately an additional 2745 feet. At this point,
the 10-inch interceptor would end and a 12-inch PVC interceptor
would begin and extend northward approximately 670 feet, where
it would connect into an existing 12-inch. interceptor just
south of Sunrise Commercial Park.

RE: Animal impound agreements
After analyzing the operating expenditures at the City of
Monticello's animal control shelter over the past few years, it has
been determined by the City Council that the City will be
increasing its daily chart for housing of animals at the pound from
the current $6.75 per day to a new charge of $7.25 per day
effective August 1, 1990. The current charge has been in effect
since January 1, 1988; and with the increased cost of operation the
City has been experiencing, we had no choice but to increase the
daily fee by approximately 7.4%. The daily fee includes the intake
of the animal, housing, feeding, and caring for the animal while
impounded, along with transportation to the veterinarian or
adoption agency if disposal is necessary for unclaimed animals.
The current disposal charge for all unclaimed animals will remain
at $14 for the time being, and the City will continue to aGnitor
this fee to determine if any adjustments in the future are
necessary.
Our billing system will remain unchanged, and you will continue to
be sent monthly statements for the services rendered by the City.
Should you have any questions regarding the new fee effective
August 1, or should you have any suggestions on how we can operate
our facility better, please give me a call.
