ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
JANUARY 6, 1992
Albertville City Hall 7:30 PM
PRESENT: Mayor Jim Walsh, Councilmen Mike Potter, Duane
Berning, Donatus Vetsch, and Mark Barthel, City Attorney Mike
Couri, City Engineer Thore Meyer, Ann Bednarczyk City Secretary,
and City Clerk Linda Houghton.
Mayor Walsh called the regular meeting of the Albertville City
Council to order.
The agenda was amended at the request of Donatus Vetsch by
adding a discussion of the Hockey Rink under Administration, and
Duane Berning requested that the Maintenance Department be added
to the agenda for the next meeting. Vetsch made a motion to
approve the agenda as amended. Barthel seconded the motion. All
voted aye.
Berning questioned the voided checks listed on the consent
agenda. Linda explained that it was due to the new software
package recently acquired. It was requested that the follow-up
^ sheet be added to the consent agenda. Potter wanted to clarify
page three of the minutes of the December 16, 1991 meeting
regarding the fact that an impact report is also to be submitted
by Meyer-Rohlin with regard to Westwind Third Addition.
Barthel made a motion to approve the minutes of the December
12, 1991, joint meeting with the City Council of Otsego. Vetsch
seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Barthel made a motion to approve the minutes of the December
16, 1991, regular meeting of the City Council. Vetsch seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Don Scherber addressed the Council regarding a snow plowing
and damage complaint which occurred when the maintenance department
cleaned out the fire hydrant at his home. The snow was pushed 22
feet into his yard damaging his rock garden and pushing up
landscape timbers. He feels the City should pay the cost of
restoration. Mayor Walsh made it clear that the City does have an
easement of approximately 10 feet for the purpose of installing
utilities, pushing up snow, etc. Although the property owner is
responsible for maintaining that 10 feet, the City is still
entitled to use it and Walsh is of the opinion that landscape
timbers should not be placed around fire hydrants.
Ken Weber questioned how many times a fire hydrant needs to
be cleaned out. He questioned why they needed to be cleaned out
more than once and who pays for the second cleaning. They were
cleaned first with a loader/blower and second with a shovel
following the last snowfall. He also questioned why it took two
months to get this job done. Berning wants it noted in Ken
Lindsay's personnel file that it took two months to get the fire
hydrants cleaned out.
Vetsch made a motion that the City pay to restore Mr.
Scherber's rock garden to it's previous condition in the spring and
that the City look into adopting an ordinance regarding this type
of situation in the future. Berning seconded the motion. All
voted aye.
City Engineer Thore Meyer reported that Westwind Second
Addition will be completed next summer. He also reported that he
has a meeting with the MPCA on Wednesday, January 8, 1992, in order
to obtain the final parameters for aeration at the wastewater
treatment plant. The feasibility study is scheduled for spring.
Meyer stated that the flow meter is installed but still not
working. It has been pulled twice. It may be a problem with the
hydraulics. The manufacturer is reanalyzing the system and will
continue to do so until the flow meter is working properly.
City Attorney Mike Couri opened the discussion on Sunshine
Kennels. Helen Ackerman, owner of Sunshine Kennels, read a
statement which is included in the minutes. Couri stated that the
'~ issue before the Council is that Sunshine Kennels is in violation
of the City Ordinance and State Statutes and that the City is
within its rights to require Sunshine Kennels to be in compliance
with the City Ordinance and State Statutes prior to issuing a
license. Patti Salzwadel, Animal Control Officer, stated that
Ralph Ackerman had indicated to her that he will not meet
compliance standards. She further stated that he has not submitted
his plans to the City prior to his December 30, 1991, deadline.
Salzwadel stated that she had tried working with the Ackermans but
was unable to get their cooperation.
Jane Kelly stated that she had visited the kennel on two
different occasions and was appalled at the deplorable conditions
the dogs live under. Gerald Dwyer stated that he had talked with
USDA and that they are also concerned with the conditions at the
kennel. Ronnie Andrews of the MN Purebred Dog Association wanted
it noted that there is a distinction between providing shade and
providing proper ventilation and both, not just one, must be
provided. Ellen Olmsheid had visited the kennel and was appalled
by the condition of the dogs and questioned Ralph Ackerman's
integrity.
Couri reminded everyone present that the Council's decision
must be an objective one based on non-compliance with the City
Ordinance and State Statutes, not the health conditions, which were
�... the main concern of the members of the audience.
Barthel made a motion, based on the recommendations from Couri
and Salzwadel, that the City send a certified letter (return
receipt requested) to the Ackermans stating that the City is
refusing to issue a license, listing the City's reasons for doing
so, and ordering Sunshine Kennels to cease and desist the business
operations. The letter will also state that the Sheriff will be
requested to issue a citation and that the matter will be turned
over to the Wright County Prosecutor's Office for prosecution. The
motion was seconded by Vetsch. All voted aye.
Couri next raised the issue of the Wastewater Debt service
funds, which have already been levied to the 1992 taxes. Walsh
questioned why this was levied and not paid for out of the
wastewater treatment fund. Couri explained that it could be done
either way but the budget was put together in anticipation of
levying this the same has been done in prior years. Walsh stated
that he felt it was unfair for residents to continue to pay for the
development of the wastewater treatment plant and that it should
be paid from the wastewater treatment fund. It was determined that
it was too late to change it for 1992, but that it could be
discussed and changed in August for the 1993 budget.
Vetsch made a motion to adopt the following resolution:
RESOLUTION # 1992-1
BE IT RESOLVED by the Albertville City Council,
^ Wright County, Minnesota that the debt service due in
1992 on the bond issued for construction of the
wastewater treatment plant will be serviced through a tax
levy upon all real property in the City of Albertville,
payable in the year 1992.
Potter seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Codification of ordinances was discussed next. The book is
ready to go the printer pending adoption by the Council.
Potter made a motion to adopt the following resolution:

ATTEST:
/s/ Linda Houghton
City Clerk
The motion was seconded by Barthel. All voted aye.
It was agreed by the Council to set up a meeting with the
Frankfort Town Board, tentatively for January 15th at 7:30 PM at
the Albertville City Hall to discuss the I-94 drainage problem and
the Frankfort fire contract.
Vetsch will attend the Joint Powers meeting on January 9th in
St. Michael in Walsh's place, since he is unable to attend.
Couri is checking with regard to the easements necessary for
the new sewer line and will know where we stand by the next
meeting.
Berning was concerned with regard to the City Engineer's
appointment. He feels that the City needs someone with more
expertise in wastewater treatment. Walsh feels the present
engineer has designed the City's current system which meets State
and Federal standards. Walsh also feels that it would be cost
prohibitive to replace our current engineer. Vetsch concurred with
Walsh stating that Thore Meyer is familiar with our City and the
�►. system.
Meyer stated that he currently has, and always has had, the
City's best interest at heart. He also stated that his firm has
engineered 9 or 10 wastewater treatment facilities. Meyer stated
that, when necessary, Meyer-Rohlin does hire outside consultants.
He has also been the City Engineer for over 20 years.
Berning questioned a possible conflict of interest with the
engineer also doing work for developers in Albertville. Meyer
stated that Westwind Third Addition will be the last project his
firm will do for a developer in Albertville. Berning also
expressed his concern that Meyer was getting up in age and
questioned what would the City do if he retired. Meyer stated that
should that ever be the case, he would work with whoever took his
place to make the transition as easy as possible for all involved.
Vetsch made a motion to accept the 1992 appointments as
presented for consideration. No second was heard and the matter
was tabled.
Otsego has signed fire contracts with Monticello and Elk
River. Both Berning and Potter felt the letter Walsh sent to Otsego
was an ultimatum. Walsh said he was sorry it was taken that way,
but it was not intended to be an ultimatum. He was only doing what
the Council had previously agreed upon. Walsh stated that the
budget is Albertville's and that Otsego was presented with a
service contract for fire protection, medical services, etc.
John Barthel suggested that a depreciation schedule instead
of building costs could be used. Gordy Berning questioned how the
Fire Department was to recover the lost revenue. Walsh said,
possibly by austerity. Potter stated that it would probably come
out of capital outlay.
Potter requests that all correspondence be signed by the Mayor
and all Councilmembers in the future.
Mark Daleiden's resignation from the Planning Commission was
presented. Barthel made a motion to accept the letter of
resignation. Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Linda was directed to send a letter to Mr. Daleiden thanking
him for his service. The Mayor and all Councilmembers are to sign.
Barthel made a motion to have Linda advertise for someone to
fill the vacant seat on the Planning & Zoning Commission. Vetsch
seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Kevin Mealhouse's contract for Building Inspector was
presented next. C. Paulson pointed out that the appointments have
not yet been made; therefore, a contract cannot be approved. Couri
was of the opinion that the 1991 appointments are good until
reappointment takes place. Paulson stated that a motion must be
made to extend the appointments. He then questioned what the
problem with the appointments was.
r�
Berning stated that
the feasibility study on
stated that he advocated
change.
he wanted a second opinion with regard to
the wastewater treatment system. Potter
changing City Engineer for the sake of
Doug Psyk was supportive of Meyer-Rohlin and the job they have
done in the past for the City.
Vetsch made a motion to approve the 1992 appointments as
presented. Barthel seconded the motion. Berning and Potter voted
against. Walsh voted aye. The motion carried. (1992 Appointment
List attached).
Barthel made a motion to approve the Financial Statement from
December 11 - December 31, 1991, as presented. Vetsch seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Barthel made a motion to pay the bills as presented (Check #'s
6033-6054). Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Vetsch made a motion to approve the contract with Kevin
Mealhouse for building inspection services. Potter seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Vetsch feels the hockey rink should get flooded this week-
end since it is supposed to get cold. Walsh feels it is the Park
Board's responsibility to determine how they want the hockey rink
handled and bring their recommendations back to the Council.
Potter suggested that when optimum flooding temperatures (suggested
temperature 26 degrees) are reached, the second person in the
Maintenance Department should come in at 10:00 PM and work for the
3 1/2 to 4 hours it takes to get the job done. That person could
then come in late the next morning in order to avoid overtime.
Walsh wasn't sure that would be acceptable under State Statutes
with regard to rate of pay. Couri was directed to check the
statutes in regards to split shifts.
Potter made a motion that he, Potter, is to present Linda
Houghton with the proper specifications for flooding the rink.
Linda will be responsible for giving those directives to the
maintenance department. Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted
aye.
Berning presented a copy of an ordinance in effect in Rogers
requiring recycling services for residential buildings with more
than eight dwelling units. Couri will research and get back to
Linda with his findings.
A motion was made by Vetsch to have the Fire Department
appoint a committee to compile the costs associated in building a
10_lk new fire building, to determine feasibility and to present same to
the Council for review at the next meeting. Potter seconded the
motion. All voted aye.

JOINT MEETING
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
AND
OTSEGO CITY COUNCIL
December 12, 1991
Albertville City Hall 7:30 PM
PRESENT: Mayor Jim Walsh, Councilmen Duane Berning and Mike
Potter, City Attorney Mike Couri, City Clerk Linda Houghton, and
the cull Otsego City Council, Otsego City Clerk and Deputy Clerk
Mayor Walsh called the joint meeting with the Otsego City
Council to order. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the
1992 Fire Contract between the two cities.
Mayor Walsh explained that Albertville has completed a long
budget process and have come up with realistic costs for the fire
department budget. The proposed fire contract with Otsego is based
on the percentage of the assessed value of the total fire district
attributed to the City of Otsego times the 1992 Fire Department
budgeted expenses. Otsego's percentage is 28.234% of the budget,
or $27,588.37.
Several members of the Otsego Council stated that although
they were not opposed to the way the proposed contract was
formulated, they could not justify paying a portion of the capital
outlay amount budgeted for a new building if Albertville does not
plan to build the new building immediately.
Mayor Walsh stated it was his opinion that Otsego was paying
for a service from the Albertville Fire Department and that service
charge is based on the total needs of the fire department,
including capital outlay items for future growth and expansion.
The Albertville City Council agreed to meet with the Fire
Department as a whole to determine how they wished to proceed.
The Otsego Council indicated that they will make their
decision on the fire contract before the end of the year. They
also stated payment of the 1990 and 1991 fire contracts will be
made to Albertville on their December 23, 1991, meeting.
The joint meeting was adjourned.
The Council met with the Fire Department upon departure of the
Otsego City Council to get their firemen's input. It was the
consensus of the Fire Department members present to leave the
Otsego's fire contract amount as presented, representing 28.234%
of the Fire Department's 1992 budgeted expenses.

banking facilities in Albertville. The bank signed a purchase
agreement on the Daniel Eiden property for the purpose of
constructing a full service bank facility. Ederer explained that
the bank is in the preliminary stages of proceeding.
Contingencies, such as economic feasibility, variance requirements
and City requirements, must be considered. Ederer will keep the
City informed of the bank's progress.
Ken Heuring presented the Council with a petition signed by
17 Albertville residents opposed to the City's policy of assessing
a storm water charge quarterly to all property owners in the City.
The Council listened to the petitioners objections to the storm
water charges and explained that this charge is made to each
property within the corporate limits of the City. The money
collected is designated for storm drainage projects within the
City.
Heuring told that Council that since the new high school moved
dirt around, there has been more drainage problems in the areas
west of County Road 19. The Council directed Thore to check into
the high school drainage plans to determine if there is a problem.
The Council directed Thore to reassess the drainage area off
Heights Road East in St. Michael that has drained into the city
limits of Albertville.

Ackermans one more chance to comply. The Council decided to allow

Ralph and Helen Ackerman

6551 LaBeaux Avenue NE
Albertville, MN 55301
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Ackerman:
This letter is to inform your kennel of those changes and/or
additions that will need to be made to your facility before the
City of Albertville can consider the issuance of a license for a
commercial dog kennel. These items are to be completed and
inspected by the City"s Animal Control Officer by January 6, 1992.
INDOOR ADULT HOUSING FACILITIES
1. All interior surfaces must be made substantially
impervious to moisture (State Statute 346.39 div 10). Will install
marlite-type material to all walls. All seams to be caulked with
a good grade of non -toxic silicone caulk. Caulking must be
replaced as necessary.
2. Heat must be maintained at 50 degrees at all times when
the outdoor temperature falls below 50 degrees. If heat lamps are
approved, the lamps must be equipped with guards to prevent the
bulb from falling into the kennel upon breakage. Pens must also be
constructed so that the dog cannot come in physical contact, with
the heat lamps. The burden of proof is upon you to show that the
currently proposed heating system will maintain a constant
temperature of 50 degrees above zero. Otherwise, an alternate
heating system will have to be utilized.
3. Ventilation must be provided such that the air is
exchanged at a minimum of 6 times per hour (346.39 div 8). This
will provide proper air movement for the health of the animal.
4. As recorded earlier in two previous reports from the
C,ity's Animal Control Officer, you do not have enough shelter area
to accommodate the number of dogs you have. You have also
previously indicated that you will not expand your shelter areas to
accommodate these dogs. Therefore, the thirteen 4 x 4 foot boxes
that you currently have will be used in computing the minimum
square footage for shelter size. Again in figuring compliance for
minimum square footage, State Statute 346.39 div 4 is used. Each
animal is measured from the tip of the nose to the base of the
tail, plus 25%. Note also that you can figure your shelter area
only - not, the outdoor exercise area when figuring square footage.
Your outdoor exercise area is not shelter, it does not protect the
animals from rain, snow, wind, etc. An exercise area must be
provided in addition to the shelter
Sunshine Kennels
December 24, 1991
Page 2
With regard to square footage, the City is considering indoor
shelter area only, since this is the only area which is heated. In
order to muffle the noise of barking dogs the City requires the
dogs to be housed inside during the hours of 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM.
For this reason also, you need to figure only your indoor shelter
area in order to compute necessary square footage.
Beginning with your largest breed, which is a Wheaten Terrier, an
average dog measures 31", which requires a minimum of 10.4 sq. ft.
Each shelter size is 16 sq. ft. and could house 1 Wheaten Terrier.
Your next largest breed is a Cocker Spaniel which averages 27" and
requires 7.9 sq. ft. So, each shelter could house 2 Cocker
Spaniels. Your other breeds range from 27" to 20" in size. Based
on these figures, you would be able to be licensed for 16 - 20
adult dogs. Again, this is an average, since the City's Animal
Control Officer has not measured your specific dogs. However, we
reed to go with the breed's standard size since your breeding stock
is not likely to stay the same at all times. Please provide the
City with a list of which dogs you wish to be licensed for and how
many of each breed in order to be in compliance with statutes with
regard to space.
PUPPY/WHELPING FACILITY
1. Floor must be made substantially impervious to moisture.
In previous reports, the City's Animal Control Officer has
recommended a concrete floor with a drain be installed. You have
presented a black plastic material that may be used instead. All
:racks and seams are to be sealed. This flooring would need to be
replaced as necessary (346.39 div 10).
2. All interior surfaces of the puppy cages are to be
substantially impervious to moisture. The same marlite-type
material and black plastic is to be used as is used in the adult
housing facility. All seams are to be caulked with a non -toxic
caulk and replaced as necessary (346.39 div 10).
3. As stated earlier in the City's Animal Control Officer's
reports, you are not in compliance with regard to square footage
for your shelter areas. If 1 Wheaten Terrier mother dog is 31" in
length, she requires 10.41 sq. ft. Generally the Wheaten Terrier
mother has 6 puppies, which would be an average litter for a
Wheaten Terrier. These puppies are with the mother in this shelter
area until 5 weeks of age. At 4 weeks of age, they are actively
walking and average 17" in size. Each puppy would require 3.1 sq.
ft. of floor space. Therefore, the total minimum square footage
required for the mother and 6 puppies would be 29 sq. ft. The
largest whelping pen you currently have is 9.9 sq. ft. If the
smallest size dog is figured at. 20" with 5 puppies at 11" in size
Sunshine Kennels
December 24, 1991
Page 3
at 4 weeks of age, this litter would require a minimum of 10.8 sq.
ft. and you would still be short of space. Therefore, unless you
expand the size of your whelping pens to accommodate the size of
the dogs you intend to raise, you cannot be given a permit to house
any adult dogs with nursing puppies in this facility.
If you wish to house only 8 week old puppies in these existing
pens, you must still comply with minimum square footage. For this
you need to look to the average size of an 8 week old puppy. A
Wheaten Terrier, Cocker Spaniel, and Bishon puppy average 18" to
19" at 8 weeks of age. Based on shelter area only, the City's
Animal Control Officer could recommend a license for 34 puppies.
If smaller puppies such as Lahsas, Carin Terriers, Poms, etc. were
mixed in, this number may be increased by. 10 or so puppies.
These numbers are not conclusive since an exercise area is still
not provided for the puppies. State Statute 346.39 div 5 states:
"all dogs must be provided the opportunity for periodic exercise".
You showed the City's Animal Control Officer an area up on top of
your current puppy cages where you would be willing to put an
exercise area. This area is in direct line of and just a few feet
away from your furnace. This means the puppies would have air that
is 120 degrees to 140 degrees blowing directly on them as they are
exercising. For that reason, this area is not acceptable. You
will need to reconstruct the boxes themselves to allow for exercise
with the pens. Exercise is defined as allowing the dog to break
into a full run.
If no changes are made in either of these two areas, square footage
for the shelter area or an exercise area, it is doubtful that you
will be able to obtain a License for a Commercial Dog Kennel for
any number of puppies in this facility. Please submit any specific
space changes to my office for prior approval.
TO BE COMPLETED BY APRIL 1, 1992
All outdoor runs are to be of poured concrete, along with proper
slanting to allow for quick elimination of excess fluids. Concrete
is to be sealed with a proper concrete sealer and reapplied as
often as necessary. All wastewater must, be collected in a gutter
system and disposed of through a sanitary sewer. Wastewater cannot
be allowed to wash out onto the ground, due to the spread of
disease to humans, livestock, or other pets. This is for the
public's health and safety. Please submit Plans of your disposal
system to my office for prior approval. Outdoor runs are to be of
ample size to allow dogs to break into a full run. Please submit
specific size of runs to the City.
Sunshine Kennels
December 24, 1991
Page 4
TO BE COMPLETED BY MAY 1, 1992
Outdoor runs must be provided with an area to protect the animal
from the direct rays of the sun. You have agreed to put, plywood
sheets over part of the runs to provide shade.
If you have any questions, you can reach the City's Animal Control
Officer at the shelter phone which is 295-3838. As noted, please
submit all plans of all changes to my office for prior approval.
Please note that if the improvements to be completed by January 6,
1992 are not completed and inspected by that date, the City may
consider your facility in violation of the City's ordinance
regarding licensing of commercial kennels. If your facility is
found to be in violation of the ordinance, the City may have the
Sheriff issue a citation and turn the matter over to the Wright
County Prosecutor's office for prosecution.
Please keep us advised as to your progress with regard to
completion_ of the above mentioned items.

Dear Board Members:

This letter is in reference to a problem that has developed
with drainage of surface water within the City of Albertville and
the Town of Frankfort. It has come to the attention of the City
Council that the Town Board of Frankfort has replaced a portion of
an 18 inch drain tile located in the Northwest Quarter of Section
6, Township 121 North, Range 23 West, near County State Aid Highway
37 and Interstate 94, with an 8 inch drain tile. The City Council
believes this has resulted in restriction of the drainage from
several properties and has created a nuisance in the form of excess
surface water that is threatening City of Albertville property and
Interstate 94.
The repair performed was not in conformance with the joint
recommendation of the Engineers of the City of Albertville and the
Town of Frankfort (see attachments) . The Albertvil lu r;
feels that the nonconforming repair was a negligent action on the
part of the Frankfort Town Board and that action has resulted in
the creation of the nuisance.
The intent of the City Council is to have the existing
nuisance abated by some means satisfactory to all parties. The
Albertville City Council would like the Frankfort Town Board to
abate the nuisance by providing proper drainage or by working with
the City of Albertville and the Minnesota Department of
Transportation to provide another drainage path. The most
equitable method would be a joint action on the part of the City of
Albertville, the Town of Frankfort and the Minnesota Department of
Transportation. The Minnesota Department of Transportation has
received funding approval for participation in the proposed
drainage project (see enclosed letter dated September 27, 1991 from
MNDOT) .
The City Council of The City of Albertville requests the Town
of Frankfort to act to abate the nuisance unilaterally or that the
Town Board contact the City of Albertville to discuss a joint
remedy. If the Town of Frankfort fails to act the City of
Albertville will be forced to take legal action to protect the
health and welfare of the public and the citizens of Albertville.
Sincerely,
William S. Radzwill

Honorable Mayor and City Council:
We are in receipt of your letter of December 18, 1991 which
advised the City of Otsego that the City of Albertville is
terminating fire service to the City of Otsego effective
January 1, 1992, at 12:01 AM. Please be advised that we have
contracted with the fire departments of Monticello and Elk
River to provide fire protection to the residents of Otsego
for the year 1992.
However, we are willing to reopen discussions regarding the
future relationship between our City and your City with
respect to the provision of fire service to our respective
communities. We suggest that we meet sometime in early
spring to discuss this matter.
Both communities will benefit by mutual cooperation. We look
forward to working with you.
Very truly yours,
City Council
