Berning made a motion to approve the minutes of the November 17, 1997, special and regular meetings as amended. Stalberger seconded the motion. All voted aye. Because City Engineer Carlson was prepared to discuss and make a recommendation on two of the bills considered for payment, Mayor Olsen delayed consideration of Audit Claims until later in the meeting. There was no one who wished to address the Council under Citizen Forum. Berning made a motion to approve the Wastewater Operations Report for October 1997 as presented. Gundersen seconded the motion. All voted aye. The Council tabled approval of RESOLUTION #1997-57 (RESOLUTION 1 ADOPTING THE ANNUAL EVALUATION AND PLANNING SURVEY FOR THE MPCA) until the December 15th meeting to allow the Council to review the survey results. City Engineer reviewed his memo dated November 28, 1997, regarding the sewer repairs at the Steve Breingan residence. Carlson reported that he is unable to state absolutely how the pipe was broken and therefore recommends to the Council that the City reimburse the homeowner for one-half of the repair costs. Carlson further recommends that the Council consider a policy change stating the homeowner is responsible for maintenance of his service line from the house to the sewer main. Councilmember Berning questioned whether the repair to the sewer line had been inspected before being covered up. It is the engineer's and the clerk's understanding that Ken Lindsay was on site at the time. Berning made a motion to hold Check #10034 and direct Ken Lindsay to prepare a report for the Council on the incident. Gundersen seconded the motion. All voted aye. PSG representative Kelly Browning explained that she has a copy of the repair/maintenance policy from the City of St. Michael.

The City Council approved the format of the response to the City of Otsego's engineer regarding Otsego's request that no new pipe systems or drainage improvements be made in the vicinity of Greenhaven Estates and the Albertville Cemetery until the full downstream impacts are known and mitigated. City Engineer Carlson has reviewed the pay request from Fehn Excavating for the site improvements to the parking lot at the L & D Trucking site in the amount of $25,018.25 and recommended payment. Carlson was di:-ected to contact Wright County and.or MNDOT regarding the confusing signage at the I-94/CSAH 19 ramp area. Larry Lee, STMA Youth Hockey Association representative, requested permission for the association to use and maintain the ice rink facility again this year. Practices will be scheduled Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, leaving Wednesdays and the weekends open for free skating. The Hockey Association will provide their own tractor/sweeper for cleaning the ice. Due to the large number of participants in the Initiation level, the Association would also like permission to use the large side of the park shelter exclusively for those participants. 2 Berning made a motion granting STMA Youth Hockey Association's requests and directing the Public Works Department to remove the Toro mower from the shelter garage.

Councilmember Berning reported that the Transportation Committee met on November 20 with the Otsego committee. Otsego does not want to make improvements, such as sewer, water or pavement, on the shared roads. They are not in favor of a realignment of MacIver Avenue. No further meetings have been scheduled at this time. City Engineer Carlson suggested that the Public Works Committee began consideration of a policy for shared roads. The Council agreed that a policy should be formulated. Councilmember Vetsch reported that the Joint Powers Board has contracted with PSG for operation and maintenance of the water system effective January 1, 1998 at a cost of $9,458 per month.

Of that amount $93,500 is levied for Debt Service and $496,500 for the General Fund. Expenditures must be decreased to balance the revenue/expenditure sides of the budget. The Council discussed the request for $2,366 for the River Rider Program. Councilmember Stalberger reported that Commissioner Rose has indicated that due to the lateness in making the request, the City could have the service provided for one-half the cost. Councilmember Berning stated that in his discussions with several senior citizens he was advised that the seniors are not interested in the program. The Council agreed not to fund the River Rider Program in 1998. Mayor Olsen arrived at the meeting at 6 : 45 PM and Acting Mayor Berning turned the meeting over to Mayor Olsen. The Council discussed the increase in sign permits from $75 per face to $100 per face for billboards.

The Council concurred that the permit fee in 1998 would remain at $75 per face. The Sign Permit Fee line item in the revenue budget was decreased to $3,375. City Clerk Linda Houghton reported that the 1998 contracts for fire service are actually $36,495.

Since several members of the Queen Committee were present at this time, the Council explained that $1,250 was allotted for a scholarship fund for the Albertville Royalty as requested in the proposed 1998 budget and that funding for purchasing a float was denied. Steve Breingen was present to request the City reimburse him $860 in costs to have his sewer line repaired. The actual repair was required in the right of way on the City side of the connection. The breakage appeared to have been caused by a rock 1 settling on top of the line and cracking the line. Breingan explained that he has had problems with his sewer line for several years. The Council directed City Engineer Carlson to inspect the property and to speak to Ken Lindsay, who Breingen said was on -site when the line was dug up and make a report to the Council at the December meeting.

The WSWC approved the wetland mitigation plan for the addition and have agreed to help to get County Ditch #9 cleaned. Carlson also reviewed the standard street sections. Some areas of the City require heavier street sections because of poor soils, etc. Carlson recommended the Council might want to approve two street sections and direct the engineer to determine which section is required in different areas. Councilmember Berning suggested that the Council use the heavier street section standard and require the developer to prove that the heavier section is not required. The Council directed Carlson to bring two separate standard street specs to the December meeting for Council decision. Carlson reported that the section of Barthel Industrial Drive property by Franklin Outdoor Sign has an 80' right-of-way but the City has no easement outside of that right-of-way. City Attorney Couri recommended that the issue of an easement across the parcel Franklin is purchasing from the City be dropped as unnecessary. The Council concurred that the 80' right-of-way is sufficient for snowmobile use and no further easement is required. The Council directed City Engineer Carlson to notify Wright County that there were damages to 60th Street resulting from the FA CSAH 19/37 construction. Olsen made a motion to approve the City Council Findings of Fact & Decision dated November 171, 1997, approving the rezoning from R-1A, Low Density Single Family Residential to PUD (Planned Unit Development) for the Cedar Creek Golf Course and to adopt ORDINANCE #1997-18 titled AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY'S ZONING ORDINANCE #1988-12 (MAP AMENDMENT).

Councilmember Vetsch and Mayor Olsen, representatives on the Joint Powers Hockey Board, requested each participating entity authorize a cash advance in the amount of $1,000 as start-up cash to pay for legal notices and fees, etc., involved in establishing the operations and by-laws of the board. Gundersen stated he is opposed to giving the Hockey Board $1,000 since the hockey association supposedly has already raised money for the ice arena. Berning pointed out that Monticello is rumored to be planning an ice arena of its own. Based on the proforma provided by the Hockey Association, a large portion of the income was to be derived from selling ice time to Monticello. There has also been discussion on relocating the ice arena from the Barthel Commercial Park site to St. Michael. Vetsch made a motion to approve an advance of $1000 to the 4 Joint Powers Hockey Board. Olsen seconded the motion. Vetsch, Berning, Olsen and Stalberger voted aye. Gundersen voted no.

CLOUD ++� ALBERTVILLE CITY 001/00 November 25, 1997 Mr. John A. Harwood, P.E. Otsego City Engineer Hakanson Anderson Associates, Inc. 3601 Thurston Avenue Anoka, MN 55303 Dear John: RE: Albertville, Minnesota Greenhaven Drainage SEH No. A-ALBEV 9706.00 I am in receipt of your letter to me, dated November 20, 1997, regarding drainage in the vicinity of Greenhaven Estates and the Albertville Cemetery. Within your letter, you request on behalf of the Otsego City Council, that no new pipe systems or drainage improvements be made to the system until the full downstream impacts are known and mitigated. The Albertville City Council is very committed to managing storm water runoff from development within the City of Albertville. The City Council has adopted a policy that requires all post - development runoff rates to be half of the pre -development runoff rates. This is a significant policy established by the City Council to minimize drainage impacts on land downstream of Albertville. Having said that, the City Council is also very committed to resolving this drainage problem. As you stated, this problem has been around for a long time. The City Council has not authorized any improvements to the drainage system, but rather authorized a proper repair to the drainage system that was improperly repaired several years ago. I agree with your letter in which you state there is a perception of increased runoff from Albertville due to development. It is our responsibility to provide correct information to clarify this perception. Attached to your letter is a contour map indicating drainage areas. This map shows only a small portion of Albertville draining to this system. The map also shows that a significant portion of the drainage area within Albertville is wetlands. These wetlands are connected by a culvert, constructed by MnIDOT, that crosses I-94. These wetlands are providing significant drainage detention. The drainage system in question provides an outlet for these wetlands. It is due to the improper repair of the drain tile system that land adjacent to these wetlands, including I-94, are being threatened with high water elevations. < $ r Mr. John A. Harwood, P.E. November 25, 1997 Page 2 A clarification that your office needs to address with the Otsego City Council, is drainage coming from the City of Otsego. The map attached to your letter, indicates a significant portion of the drainage area to the ditch system is within the City of Otsego. Changes to the land use within Otsego may also be contributing to the drainage problem. For example, the tree farm adjacent to CSAH 37 is making a large contribution to the storm water runoff, with no control from the City of Otsego. In fact, the City of Albertville is providing the control as the runoff from the tree farm drains to the wetland within the City of Albertville before entering the drain tile system. The City of Albertville would very much like to cooperate with the City of Otsego to resolve this drainage problem. However, diverting water from one watershed area to another watershed area does not make any sense and is not good engineering practice. Diverting the storm water runoff as you have suggested may solve this particular problem, but at the expense of creating a problem somewhere else. The City of Albertville is committed to solving this particular drainage problem. Finally, attached to your letter is a handwritten note to the Otsego City Council in which you state there is no capacity within Otsego for an 18 inch drain file system within Albertville. Please remember the original drain file system was an 18 inch pipe, and there are significant wetlands within Albertville that control the runoff rate into the tile system. The City of Albertville is unaware of any flooding problems within Otsego due to the original 18 inch drain file system. You also indicate in your letter that there are several unknowns within the Otsego drainage system. I suggest that before further statements or recommendations are made about the drainage system, we document the drainage system within Otsego. To help the Albertville City Council understand your drainage concerns, I would like to review the drainage area within Otsego. I would appreciate it if you could forward 2-foot contour maps of the drainage area within Otsego to me. The Albertville City Council is determined to correct drainage in the Greenhaven area in the spring of 1998. I am requesting you provide documentation regarding drainage and/or flooding problems within Otsego which can be attributed to drainage from within Albertville. Please call me if you have any questions. Sincerely, Peter J. Carlson, P.E. City Engineer dj g c: Mike Couri, City Attorney 1 ULBEv\9706%CORR\N0-'.4A97 qr AdIV AMW MEMORANDUM 0 ST.

Hale, City AdministratoG SUBJ: STMA Hockey Association requests (Larry Lee) It is that time of year where you will be required to determine how to best operate the ice hockey facility. Frankly, from my experience the present best solution is to empower the STMA Hockey Assoc. to do the job. Maintenance Worker II Lindsay desire to operate the rink and facility. With a second person this sounds on the surface like it makes sense. Questions that come to mind for your consideration: timing, employee availability to lock and unlock, employee availability to clean the rink and flood. Let's talk flooding, Mr. Lindsay will not flood unless a second person is helping. What about employee illness?! These questions are set out now so you can consider the matter fully. Will the hockey group who can provide depth in numbers and who will handle the timing issues be a more prudent choice today. That is your policy question.
