Obligation Improvement, Bonds of 1979, the $675,000 General
Obligation! Improvement Improvements Bonds, Series 1985A, and the
$575,000 General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 1986A and
provides new money for financing the 1992-13 Improvement Project
(50th Street construction). Four bids were received. The lowest
bid was received from Park Investment Corporation at a true
interest rate of 4.9714%. Thistle told the Council that refunding
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
June 21, 1993
Page 2 of 6
the previously mentioned bonds at the rate bid from Park Investment
Corporation results in a savings to the City in the amount of
$191,281.67. Thistle recommended that the Council accept the low
bid from Park Investment Corporation.
Berning made a motion to adopt a resolution entitled
RESOLUTION ACCEPTING BID ON THE COMPETITIVE NEGOTIATED SALE OF
$675,000 GENERAL OBLIGATION IMPROVEMENT REFUNDING BONDS, SERIES
1993A, PROVIDING FOR THEIR ISSUANCE, PLEDGING FOR THE SECURITY
THEREOF SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS, AND LEVYING A TAX FOR THE PAYMENT
THEREOF. Barthel seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Stan, Don, and Betty Barthel discussed their interest, in
having the Developer's Agreement for Barthel's Commercial Park
amended by delaying the construction of the street, sanitary sewer,
water, and storm sewer as required. Councilmember Barthel stated
that he would abstain from the discussion and any vote taken by the
Council because of a conflict of interest. Don Barthel explained
to the Council that the cost of putting in the street, even the 250
feet required immediately, was prohibitive if there were no
additional lots sold in the plat. Barthel requested that he be
allowed to construct only a partial street with no curb, gutter or
water mains.
City Attorney Mike Couri explained to the Council that the
Developer's Agreement is a legally binding document and he cannot
see a basis for amending the agreement. City Zoning Ordinances
require that streets be constructed to City standards. In order
for the Council to deviate from the street requirements, the City
ordinance must be changed. A variance can only be granted on
criteria established that expressly denies financial hardship as a
reason to grant a variance.
Betty Barthel told the Council that she believes they were
misled by the Planning Commission, the Council and others in the
City, including the engineer and the attorney, about the need to
plat their property. She stated there was no reason to plat the
property because their bus garage was in a separate parcel. Couri
explained that the City only approves platting upon the owner's
request and is under no authority to tell property owners when or
how to plat, their property. Don Barthel stated that he has no
objections to the plat as it is.
City Attorney Couri stated that the Council has limited
authority to alter a developer's agreement and warned that if this
development agreement is altered, there may be several other
requests to alter developer's agreements. Couri advised that
unless the Council finds a very compelling reason to alter the
agreement, the Developer's Agreement should not be altered.
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL

Engineer Thore Meyer presented the Feasibility Study for the
Hardwood Ponds 2nd Addition. The total estimated cost for the
construction of the project is $239,330, exclusive of bonding,
financing, or legal costs. The estimated costs work out to
approximately $8,900 per lot.
Anderson made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION 1993-12 entitled
RESOLUTION ACCEPTING PETITION FOR IMPROVEMENTS, ACCEPTING
FEASIBILITY STUDY, ORDERING IMPROVEMENTS AND ORDERING PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS FOR HARDWOOD PONDS SECOND ADDITION. Barthel
seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Thore presented the Feasibility Study for the Parkside
Addition. The total estimated costs for the construction of the
project is $896,055, exclusive of bonding, financing, or legal
costs. The feasibility study includes the cost of 18 service leads
for water and sewer along Outlots A and B. The Westwind Third
Addition development, has not yet presented a proposal for extending
the 12" water and sewer trunk line along County Road 37, which is
necessary to provide service to Parkside Addition. Attorney Cou.ri
also pointed out that the Feasibility Study does not, include the
extension of the main beyond the temporary lift station. Unless
the developer pays or installs this main, the City will be required
to install the main at some point in the future and will be unable
to assess those costs. The Council concurred that this extension
should be included in the Parkside improvements.
Barthel made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION 1993-13 entitled
RESOLUTION ACCEPTING PETITION FOR IMPROVEMENTS, AMENDING THE
Feasibility STUDY TO INCLUDE THE EXTENSION OF SEWER AND WATER MAINS
ALONG COUNTY ROAD 37, AND ACCEPTING THE FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR
PARKSIDE ADDITION AS AMENDED. Anderson seconded the motion. All
voted aye.
Thore reported that he had viewed the ditch along the
Savitski/Burlington Northern property and has found that the
culvert underneath the drive is plugged and the water is not
flowing. Linda was directed to send a letter to L & D Trucking and
request that they remove the dirt that has been added to the ditch.
Corny Paulson told the Council that he has found that the City
is encroaching on his property with the alleyway. He requested
that the City restore his property (approximately 10 feet from the
back of his garage) back to grass. The Council agreed to have the
Maintenance Department, remove the gravel from Paulson's property
and replace it with black dirt, and grass seed.
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
June 21, 1993
Page 4 of 6
Paulson also questioned the difference between the survey for
his property and the survey for the adjoining bank property. Thore
explained that the only solution to the question is to have both
the bank"s surveyor (Dennis Taylor) and Paulson's surveyor (Bob
Rohlin) meet to establish the exact line so that both surveys
reflect the same lines.
Attorney Couri left the meeting at 9:10 PM.
Thore reported that the storm sewers and the retaining walls
along 50th Street have been installed. Depending on the weather,
gravel will be hauled in for the sub -base this week.
The sewer replacement project is moving ahead. The
engineering inspector reports they have found large sources of
infiltration that the replacement will correct.
Barthel made a motion to replace an additional 128 feet of
sewer main along 60th Street as previously agreed upon at an
additional cost of $7,960. Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted
aye.
The contractor for the Main Street sidewalk project still has
some final things to be completed. The Council questioned Thore
regarding Dave Heifort`s request that the City pay for additional
sloping on his property. Thore stated that the contractor
originally sloped Heifort"s property back to his property line.
Upon a request from Heifort, the contractor went back and continued
to slope the ground past the City right-of-way. Thore believes the
City is not responsible for the additional grading that Heifort had
done. Linda was directed to send Heifort a letter to that effect.
Berning made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION 1993-14 requesting
funding from the Department of Trade and Economic Development, for
the sewer replacement project (Project, 1993-11B). Vetsch seconded
the motion.
Barthel made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION 1993-15 requesting
public financing from the Department of Trade and Economic
Development for the wastewater treatment facility expansion project
(Project 1993-11A). Anderson seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Vetsch made a motion to approve the Financial Statement from
the period June 3- June 16 as presented. Barthel seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Vetsch made a motion to approve payment of Check #`s 7566-7583
and to void Check #7584. Barthel seconded the motion. All voted
aye.

The Council directed Linda to prepare a purchase order for
seven City of Albertville signs and posts when quotes have been
received. The Lions have agreed to pay for the signs and posts.
The Council denied the request for a donation to the STMA
Marching Band.
Barthel made a motion to approve the request from the St.
Albert's Parish Center to close off one block of 57th Street west
of Main Avenue for their parish festival on July 18, 1993, from
9:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Anderson seconded the motion. All voted aye.
The Council discussed the resolution entitled Authorization to
Participate in Regional Sewer Facility Study as requested by the
City of Otsego. Upon the advice of Attorney Lloyd Grooms, the
Council agreed not to adopt the resolution as presented, until the
language in paragraph 7 is clarified to state that, each community
prepares at its own cost its own comprehensive sewer plan.
The Council also reviewed the Agreement for the Restoration
and Maintenance of Otsego Creek as prepared by the City of Otsego.
Since there are areas within the proposed agreement where the
details have not been completed, the Council is unwilling to enter
into such an agreement until those details are specified. Barthel
made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION 1993-16 entitled AGREEMENT FOR
THE RESTORATION AND MAINTENANCE OF OTSEGO CREEK, which commits the
City of Albertville to participate in Otsego Creek maintenance and
restoration but establishes a committee consisting of two members
each of the Albertville and Otsego City Councils and the respective
engineers to work out the details of the agreement. Vetsch
seconded the motion. All voted aye.
The Council set a Fire Board committee meeting for Thursday,
•July 1, 1993, at 7:00 PM. Mayor Potter will serve as the alternate
committee member.
The Council agreed to table discussion on the Wright County
Funding Participation Agreement for replacing Main Avenue until
additional cost figures are presented.
Anderson made a motion to increase the sewer rates by 10%
effective July 1, 1993. The minimum rate will remain at $30 per
quarter and will allow use of up to 15,000 gallons. The cost per
additional 1,000 gallons of use will be $2.31. Barthel seconded
the motion. Anderson, Barthel, Berning and Potter voted aye.
Vetsch voted no. The motion carried. The Council will review the
sewer rates again in six months.

Dennis Fehn addressed the Council regarding his desire to
maintain two driveway accesses onto 50th Street. Fehn explained
that his driveway is horseshoe shaped for safety reasons. in
checking the Zoning Ordinance, Linda discovered that residential
properties are allowed only one driveway access and Fehn's property
is zoned industrial, chich allows one driveway access for every 125
feet ofproperty, provided that there is a distance of 40 feet
between the driveways. Fehn also stated he would like to retain
the driveway access on his property onto Barthel Industrial Drive.
Jerry Corbin also requested that he be allowed to retain his
driveway access on 50th Street. He stated that he had bought the
property as is and he uses the driveway off 50th Street to access
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
June 7, 1993
Page 2 of 7
the existing building on his property. Corbin agreed to attend the
Planning Commission meeting scheduled for tomorrow night to discuss
a possible conditional use permit.
Barthel made a motion to send both Fehn's and Corbin's
driveway concerns to the Planning Commission. Vetsch seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Mary Ann Barthel and Ray Vetsch addressed the Council in
regards to the sewer main replacement on 60th Street. Barthel is
concerned that the main in front of her property is not being
replaced and she is worried that she may experience sewer backups
at some point in the future. The Council viewed the video tape of
the sewer main section being discussed. Norm Gartner explained
that hydraulic capacity of the main as well as the condition of the
`pipe were the criteria used to determine which sections of main
would be replaced. The section of 60th Street being discussed did
not meet the criteria established for replacement. To replace the
approximately 100 feet additional pipe would cost somewhere in the
$4,000-$5,000 range.
Barthel made a motion directing the engineer to issue a change
order to extend the sewer main on 60th Street from Main Avenue to
the second manhole on 60th Street. Norm will provide actual cost
figures. Vetsch seconded the motion. P__1 voted aye.
Ken Lindsay reviewed the quotations for the replacement of the
outfield fence at City Park. Century Fence's quote for $2,800 to
replace the fence and install a new 10' gate on the north side was
the cheapest. Mary Vetsch, Park Board Chairman explained that the
Park Board had reviewed the quotes and had recommended that the
Council accept Century Fence's quote. However, he was unaware that
the quote included the new 10' gate. He was unsure if the other
Park Board members were aware of the new gate. Barthel made a
motion to accept the quote from Century Fence to replace the
outfield fence at City Park and to remove the 8' gate and relocate
a new 10' gate. Berning seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Ken reported that the second discharge from the ponds has been
completed and the next transfer is already in progress.
Ken asked for Council directive as to what to do with the
parking lot at City Park. There are areas where the parking lot
is so wet and soft that major corrective measures are necessary.
Ken reported that he had spoken with Dennis Fehn about what
corrections should be made and Fehn suggested the only solution
would be to dig out the areas up to two fe-et deep and fill back in
with gravel but it would be very costly. The Council agreed to
wait until Mayor Potter was in attendance 'before reaching a
decision.
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
June 7, 1993
Page 3 of 7
Ken also reported that if the City continues to operate a
composting site it must be licensed by the MPCA. At this time Ken
has discontinued all composting.
City Engineer Norm Gartner reported that the grading on 50th
Street is mostly complete. A few more days are necessary to
complete the utility work. Depending upon the weather, the sub-
base may be started.
Norm also reported t_''iat Widimer, Inc. has begun the sewer
replacement project.
Mayor Potter arrived at the meeting at 3:35 PM and conducted
the remaining portion of the meeting.
Norm reviewed the specs for rebidding the wastewater treatment
plant. He pointed out that if the old storage garage building was
removed, the culvert and the retaining wall to control drainage
would not be necessary. The City would save approximately $5,000
in expenses. Mayor Potter will meet with Ken and Linda to
determine if the City could find sufficient space to store the
items presently stored in this building.
Gartner explained that the revised plans and specs for the
wastewater treatment facility call for alternate bids on the
clarifier with an aluminum dome, with a fiberglass dome, and with
no dome. Norm was also directed to set up an alternate bid request
for the UV disinfecting system just recently available. This UV
system is basically the same technology as the original system bid
but it does not have all the electronic alarms and gadgetry and is
consequently cheaper.
The report from the 106 Group has been received and it finds
there is very little probability of the wastewater treatment
facility being the site of Indian burial grounds.
Gartner detai led the options to correct the storm sewer at the
corner of Large Avenue to prevent f'..ture freeze ups. Mayor Potter
and Ken will visually inspect the site and determine: the best
option to pursue.
Linda was directed to notify the service organizations who
have placed signs at the corner of 60th Street and Large Avenue
that the signs will be removed during the sewer replacement project
and will be relocated after completion of the project in compliance
with City ordinances.
Councilman Berning explained that he had gone to check on the
drainage at the Burlington Northern/ Savitski area and had found
that there is a dam blocking the ditch and causing water to back
ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL
June 7, 1993
Page 4 of 7
up. The Council directed Thore to go to the site and report back
to the Council on the corrective measures to be taken.
Dave Heifort explained that he owns the corner lot on 52nd
Street and Main Avenue. He had been assured that after the
sidewalk was installed his lot would be graded to his satisfaction
to the sidewalk. He stated that the contractor had come back to
finish the grading, but he was not satisfied with the finished
product. Since he had contracted with a landscaper to sod his
lawn, Tim Barthel, a neighbor, graded the lot down to an acceptable
level as a favor to Heifort. Heifort's landscaper told him that
the grading done would cost approximately $400. Linda was directed
to check with the engineering inspector on the project as to why
Heifort's lot was not graded to his satisfaction. Linda will
notify Heifort of her findings.
The Council reviewed the proposed septic system ordinance
(Ordinance #1993-7). Because the building inspector had not
reviewed the proposed ordinance and he will be the one to enforce
the ordinance, Berning made a motion to table discussion on the
ordinance until the special meeting on May 15. Vetsch seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
Barthel made a motion to enter into a Developer's Agreement
with Douglas and Beatrice Psyk for Psyk's Fifth Addition as
presented. Vetsch seconded the motion. All voted aye.
City Attorney Mire Couri advised the Council that a complaint
had been filed against the City by Steve Birkeland. Couri has
contacted the League of Minnesota Cities and an attorney has been
assigned to the case.
The Council has received a request from Braun Development,
Inc. for municipal improvements in the Hardwood Ponds 2nd Addition
project. Vetsch made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION #1993-11
directing the City Engineer, upon the City's receipt of the signed
Petition for Municipal Improvements and Agreement To Be Assessed
from the developer, to prepare a feasibility study on municipal
improvements for Hardwood Ponds 2nd Addition. Berning seconded the
motion. All voted aye.
The Council has received a request from Kenco Construction,
Inc., Inc. for municipal improvements in the Parkside Addition
project. Barthel made a motion to adopt RESOLUTION #1993-12
directing the City Engineer, upon the City's receipt of the signed
Petition for Municipal Improvements and Agreement To Be Assessed
from the developer, to prepare a feasibility study on municipal
improvements for Parkside Addition. Vetsch seconded the motion.
All voted aye.

Couri advised the Council that the Parksedge Developer's
Agreement calls for a berm with trees to be installed. Couri
indicated that trees along the berm bordering Barthel Industrial
Drive may create a safety hazard. He recommended that the Council
review the area and decide if the trees and the berm should be
required.
Couri advised the Council that until all options are explored
regarding a potential purchase of the old clinic building, the
Council should make no decision at this time. He also suggested
that the Council may want to consider establishing an EDA (Economic
Development Authorityrather than an HRA. According to Couri, th?
EDA has all the powers of an HRA plus additional capabilities.
Attorney Couri left the meeting at 10:25 PM.

WITNESSETH:
this 27th day of August ,
Barthel and Betty L. Barthel
"Developer"), and the CITY OF
State of Minnesota, hereinafter
WHEREAS, Developer is the fee owner and developer of a parcel
or parcels of land described in Exhibit "A", attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference, a portion of which parcels of
land are proposed to be subdivided and platted for development, and
which subdivision, which is the subject of this agreement, is
intended to bear the name Barthel Commercial Park and may sometimes
hereinafter be referred to as the "Subject Property", "Said Plat",
"Plat", "Platted Property" or individually by the lots to be
platted within said Commercial Park; and
WHEREAS, the City has given preliminary approval of
Developer's plat of May 7, 1992 (attached hereto as Exhibit "B")
contingent upon compliance with certain City requirements
including, but not limited to, matters set forth herein; and
WHEREAS, the City requires that certain improvements
including, but not limited to drainage and paved access be
installed to serve the Subject Property and other properties
affected by the development of Developer's land, to be financed by
the Developer; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement is entered into for the purpose of
setting forth and memorializing for the parties and Subsequent
owners, the understandings and agreements of the parties concerning
the development of the Subject Property;
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AND HEREIN MUTUALLY AGREED, in
consideration of each party's promises and considerations herein
set forth, as follows:
1. Developer to Construct Improvements.
A. Developer shall construct and install curb and gutter on
that portion of Lot 1, Block 2 and Lot 1, Block 1 of
Barthel Commercial Park abutting the proposed 60th Street
N.E., construct a 9-ton road to City specifications as
described and including those utilities as described in
paragraph 2(B) below, said road construction abutting the
North portion of said Lot 1, Block 2 (road area shown on

bituminous or concrete surfacing. The Developer shall
also landscape said lot with trees in the size and type
as required by the City Engineer or City Building
Inspector, construct drainage swales and berming, install
sod or seed and like items, and implement necessary
erosion control procedures. Developer agrees to pave
said Lot 1, Block 2, but said paving may consist of
gravel of such type and quantity as approved by the City
Engineer until such time as Developer constructs a second
warehouse storage or similar building, at which time
(i.e. prior to occupation of additional building)
Developer must lay bituminous or concrete surfacing on
all graveled areas of said Lot 1 and all other ground
areas of the lot which are to be used in conjunction with
any warehouse storage or similar buildings on the
premises. Developer agrees that as each additional
building is constructed, bituminous or concrete surfacing
will be laid for use with such building prior to
occupation of each said new building.
B. Developer shall cause to be constructed a 9-ton road,
built to City specifications, abutting each additional
lot in Barthel Commercial Park that is platted. Said
road shall be constructed at Developer's expense and
shall be built as soon as possible after plat approval by
the City, but before any structures are erected on the
newly platted property. Prior to construction of said
road, the City must approve the design and location of
said road, it being agreed that said road shall
eventually connect with Lachman Ave. N.E., and that the
entire area of said road connecting to Lachman Ave. N.E.--�

\`
With regard to all roads within Said Plat, Developer
���shall dedicate to the City ten (10) feet of easement on
either side of the road for utility purposes and shall
dedicate to the City sixty (60) feet of right of way for
the road itself. The paved surface of the road shall be
forty-four (44) feet wide. In addition, the Developer
shall install concrete curb and gutter, water mains,
storm sewer and sanitary sewer, as required by the City
Engineer and all designed to City specifications, prior
to paving of the road. Said road, easements and rights -
of -way shall be dedicated to the City upon completion of
construction. Acceptance shall occur upon approval and
acceptance of the road by the City engineer and the City
Council. The Developer agrees to pay for the cost of
said road, and agrees to pay all costs incurred by the
City in constructing said road as detailed in paragraph
2
CA
2 below. IT IS AGREED THAT THIS OBLIGATION SHALL ACT AS
A COVENANT IN FAVOR OF THE CITY AND SHALL RUN WITH THE
LAND ON ALL PARCELS OF SAID PLAT. In the event Developer
sells any portion of Said Plat affected by this
paragraph, the purchaser of such land shall assume the
duties and responsibilities of Developer as to the
improvements required under this agreement.
C. Developer shall, at its own expense, cause street lights
to be installed of such type and at such locations as
required by the City Engineer.
D. Prior to constructing any improvements on Lot 1, Block 2,
Developer shall submit an erosion plan to the City for
approval by the City Engineer. Developer agrees to
implement those erosion control measures as required by
the City Engineer prior to disturbing the surface of Lot
1, Block 2.
2. Authorization to Construct Improvements and to Assess Costs of
Improvements to Barthel Commercial Park Land.
A. Developer agrees that it shall make such improvements as
described in paragraphs l(A) and 1(B) above at the time
and in the form as described in paragraphs l(A) and 1(B)
above. If Developer does not cause said improvements to
be constructed, Developer hereby authorizes the City to
enter upon Developer's land and construct all said
improvements described in paragraphs 1(A) and 1(B) above.
Developer agrees to pay for all said improvements,
whether constructed by Developer or by the City,
including all construction costs, engineer's fees,
attorney's fees, planner's fees, bonding costs,
capitalized interest, and such other costs as are
incurred by the City in constructing and assessing said
improvements. Developer agrees to pay the City (if City
makes said improvements) within 30 days of the date on
which the bill is mailed by the City to the Developer.
This authorization notwithstanding, the City shall not be
obligated to construct said improvements, but it may
elect to do so upon request or upon its own initiative.
B. If Developer fails to pay the City within thirty (30)
days of billing for said improvements authorized in
paragraph 2(A) above, Developer hereby petitions the City
to construct said improvements and hereby authorizes the
City to specially assess one hundred percent (100%) of
the cost of said improvements to any portion of the lands
or to all lands in Barthel Commercial Park owned by
Developer as of the date of this agreement. SAID

THE PROJECT AGAINST THE ABOVE DESCRIBED PROPERTY, AND
DEVELOPER AND ALL FUTURE OWNERS OF ANY PARCEL IN BARTHEL

3. Surety and City's Right to Withdraw Funds.
A. The Developer shall provide the City with cash, approved
irrevocable letter of credit or other satisfactory surety
in the amount of nineteen thousand, nine hundred thirty-
three dollars ($19,933.00). Said surety shall be in a
form and from an issuer acceptable to the City Attorney.
Said surety shall be provided to the City as a guarantee
that the improvements required in paragraphs 1(A) and
1(B) shall be constructed and paid for by Developer. If
Developer fails to construct said improvements, the City
may, at its option, cause all such required improvements
to be constructed at Developer's expense and draw upon
said surety to pay for all or a portion of said
improvements. Said right to draw upon said surety shall
be in addition to and may be exercised simultaneously to
the City's right to assess all or a portion of the cost
of said improvements to any or all properties within Said
Plat.
B. The Developer agrees to pay sufficient amounts of special
assessments each year, if not already paid in prior
years, for properties lying within said plat to enable
the City to pay any debt service payments incurred as a
result of the development of the subject property and
construction of the improvements detailed in paragraph 1
above, including principal and interest, as such payments
come due. Any deficiencies in the amount paid by the
Developer for special assessments causing a shortage of
funds with which the City may timely pay the required
debt service payment(s) shall be supplemented with funds
withdrawn by the City from the Developer's approved
irrevocable letter of credit or other surety furnished to
the City. Any of said surety or guaranty of funds
referred to herein that are withdrawn will be used by the
City for Payment of its herein referred debt service
payment when due. Upon the Developer paying the
delinquent special assessments, the City will repay to
4
WCA
the surety, to the extent that the delinquent special
assessments have been paid, the surety monies withdrawn,
less any costs incurred by the City in conjunction with
the said delinquent special assessments. The City may
draw on said surety for cash flow purposes to supplement
the Developer's payments when Developer is delinquent in
the payment of said special assessments or for other
purposes as enumerated elsewhere in this agreement.
4. Surety Release.
A. The Developer may request of the City a reduction or
release of any surety provided for in conjunction with
the improvements described in Paragraph 1 above, as
follows:
i. When another acceptable surety is furnished to the
City to replace a prior surety.
ii. When the final cost amount minus previous payments
becomes less than the surety provided, thus
allowing the surety to be reduced to a sum
commensurate with the remaining amount of the
project.
iii. No reduction shall be made which would result in
the surety held being less than thirty-five percent
(35%) of the original surety until the final costs
are known.
iv. The Council may, at its discretion, release all or
a portion of the surety upon payment of seventy-
five percent (75%) of all outstanding assessments
(if any) and upon completion of all non -assessable
improvements described in Paragraph 1 above.
B. The City's costs for processing any reduction request
shall be billed at $30 per hour plus any professional
fees incurred by the City, with a minimum of one (1) hour
per reduction, and shall be billed to the Developer and
paid to the City within thirty (30) days of billing.
5. surety Deficiency. In the event that any cash, irrevocable
letter of credit, or other surety referred to herein is ever
utilized and found to be deficient in amount to pay or
reimburse the City in total as required herein, the Developer
agrees that upon being billed by the City, Developer will pay
within thirty (30) days of the mailing of said billing, the
said deficient amount. If there should be an overage in the
5
WCA
amount of utilized security, the City will, upon making said
determination, refund to the Developer any monies which the
City has in its possession which are in excess of the actual
costs of the project as paid by the City. All monies
deposited with the City shall be used by the City at the
City's discretion to defray the City's costs and expenses
related to the project(s) referred to herein.
6. Draw on Expiring Letter of Credit. In the event a surety or
other form of guarantee referred to herein is in the form of
an irrevocable letter of credit, which by its terms may become
null and void prior to the time at which all monetary or other
obligations of the Developer are paid or completed, it is
agreed that the Developer shall provide the City with a new
letter of credit or other surety, acceptable to the City, at
least forty-five (45) days prior to the expiration of the
expiring letter of credit. If a new letter of credit is not
received as required above, the City may declare a default in
the terms of this Agreement and thence draw in part or in
total, at the City's discretion, upon the expiring letter of
credit to avoid the loss of surety for the continued
obligation. Such irrevocable letter of credit must contain a
provision requiring the issuer of the letter of credit to
notify the City within sixty (60) days prior to the expiration
of said irrevocable letter of credit. The form of said
irrevocable letter of credit shall be approved by the
Attorney prior to its issuance.
7. Park Dedication Fees. Developer agrees to pay park dedication
fees to the City for Lot 1, Block 2 of 5% of the fair market
value of Lot 1, Block 2, (land only) such fair market value to
be determined by the City Council based upon the value of the
"raw" land, zoned as commercial land, prior to the
construction of any improvements. The Council shall determine
the valuation of the land using the tax assessor's first
reassessment of Lot 1, Block 2 as commercial land, and shall
adjust, if necessary, for the value of any improvements added
by the Developer. Developer or its heirs, successors, or
assigns agree to pay additional park dedication fees to the
City as required by ordinance for Outlot A at such time as

to provide sufficient ground -cover to prevent continuing soil
erosion from the Plat, Developer agrees to pay all costs the
City may incur in taking whatever action is reasonably
necessary to provide ground -cover and otherwise restore Said
Plat to the point where undeveloped grounds are level and
covered with permanent vegetation sufficient to prevent
continuing soil erosion from the Platted Properties. In the
event that said costs are not paid, the City may assess any
such costs against any or all of the Platted Property.

and agreed that the Developer will reimburse the City for all
administrative, legal, and professional costs incurred in the
creation, administration, enforcement or execution of this

cluttered with debris when occurring as a direct or indirect
result of the construction that takes place in Said Plat. In
the event the Developer fails to clean up, maintain or repair
the damaged public property mentioned above, the City shall
provide the Developer with a Notice of its intent to clean up,
repair, or maintain such public property. Developer shall

bill within thirty (30) days, the Developer hereby authorizes
the City to specially assess the costs of such activity

HELP!!
The Marching Band is In need of some equipment and uniform fill-ins that
have been broken, lost, or just plain worn-out.
There are 82 students marching this summer and we planned for only 50.
The hats we are using have been stapled, taped, or repaired in other
ways. Plumes have been worn-out, lost, or got wet too many times. The
Marching Bass Drum Carriers are falling apart (we used some safety pins
to repair the harness as we started the parade last Saturday). We are
using a modified concert tom/snare harness on the quad/tenor drum set-up
and those are falling apart gradually as we practice. We barely have
enough shirts to fit students and the 22 year old pants are literally
falling apart at the seams. Anything you can do to help us would be
greatly appreciated as we leave for Winnipeg in 14 days.
These are all taken from "The Bandman's " Catalogue

TENTATIVE NOTES OF MEETING AND
: MAY CONTAIN INACCURACIES.
PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION
JUNE 8, 1993
ALBERTVILLE CITY HALL
7:00 PM
COMMISSION MEMBERS PRESENT: LeRoy Berning, Howard Larson,
Roger Johnson, Donatus Vetsch, Albert Barthel, and Secretary Ann
Culley.
ABSENT: Alternate Jan Heikes
Chairman Berning called the meeting to order at 7:00 PM.
Vetsch made a motion to approve the agenda as submitted.
Barthel seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Barthel made a motion to approve the minutes of the May 25,
1993, meeting as submitted. Johnson seconded the motion. All
voted aye.
Jerry Corbin addressed the Commission regarding a letter he
had received from the City. The letter stated that the City is in
the process of blacktopping 50th Street and since his property is
zoned residential he is allowed only one curb cut and will have to
comply with City code during the 50th Street project. He stated
that he lives on the corner of 50th Street and Main Avenue and has
one driveway cut on Main Avenue and two on 50th Street. Corbin
further stated that the current access to his property is one of
the reasons he purchased the property and that removing the
driveways on 50th would make it almost impossible to access his
garage with his lawnmower, etc.
The Commission felt that Corbin using the 50th Street driveway
for egress from his property was probably safer than using his Main
Avenue driveway. They further felt that since he has maintained
two driveways on 50th for so long, that he should be allowed to
keep at least one of those curb cuts, but not both.
Due to time constraints with regard to completion of the 50th
Street project, the Commission agreed to reschedule its regular
meeting of June 22nd to June 29th. This will allow time for proper
publication of the public hearing notice.
A motion was made by Johnson to reschedule the regular meeting
of the Planning Commission from June 22, 1993 to June 29, 1993, at
7:00 PM. Larson seconded the motion. All voted aye.
Vetsch made a motion to schedule a public hearing regarding
Mr. Corbin's application for a Conditional Use Permit to allow him
a curb cut on 50th Street, in addition to his curb cut on Main
Avenue for June 29, 1993, at 7:00 PM. The motion was seconded by
Barthel. All voted aye.
PLANNING COMMISSION - 6/8/93
Page 2 of 2
Berning made a motion to recommend in that, in an effort to
expedite the matter due to current circumstances, the City Council
either:
1. Refrain from putting curbing in the area in
question until the conditional use permit is
approved, or
2. Put the curb cut on 50th Street in, if they feel it
appropriate, and remove it if for some reason the
conditional use permit is not approved.
The motion was seconded by Johnson. All voted aye.
Corbin was given an application to fill out for his
Conditional Use Permit request and asked to return the completed
application, fee, and sketch showing his property and the curb cuts
to City Hall as quickly as possible.
Dennis Fehn addressed the Commission regarding his concern as
it relates to one of his driveways on Barthel Industrial Drive. He
feels that if the curbing on 50th Street ends at Barthel Industrial
Drive, as shown on the sketch, his driveway will be washed out
during heavy rains. He feels the curbing should run past the east
side of Barthel Industrial Drive in order to prevent this type of
wash out. The Commission feels that there is nothing they can do
with regard to this situation. The Commission advised Fehn to
contact Thore Meyer to discuss the matter with him and go to the
City Council with any further requests regarding this matter.
The Commission discussed the monthly staff meeting which will
be held on the fourth Wednesday of every month. The consensus of
the Commission is that Linda Houghton should contact Chairman LeRoy
Berning prior to scheduling any public hearings.
Barthel made a motion to adjourn at 8:00 PM. The motion was
seconded by Johnson. All voted aye.
Ann Culley, Secretary
