APPROVE RESOLUTION NO. 2008-055 ENTITLED A RESOLUTION TO CANVASS THE
2008 GENERAL ELECTION RESULTS
City Administrator Kruse began by complimenting City Clerk Miller and Finance Director Lannes
on a great job with Elections. The majority of the process went rather smoothly. Kruse then went
on to give an overview of the 2008 General Elections that were held on Tuesday, November 5, 2008
at the Albertville City Hall. Kruse commented that there were a couple complaints that were
acknowledged and dealt with. Kruse reported there were approximately 3, 400+ voters that came
through and of the 3,400 there were 798 new registered voters. Kruse shared with the Council that
as voters waited in line he would ask the voter how long they had been waiting. The average wait
was about 20 minutes, which Kruse felt was not very long to wait.
City Administrator Kruse continued by asking the Council what their opinions were on how staff
could improve and prepare for the 2010 or 2012 Elections. One suggestion Kruse had was to add
more "handicap" accessible parking spots near the rear entrance of the building. Staff was unaware
of the number of voters currently in Albertville with walkers, wheelchairs, or motorized equipment
compared to previous elections. One Council member shared with staff how Monticello had the
voters get in alphabetical lines when they arrived. Another Council member suggested setting up
the new registration table in the hallway if possible.
Mayor Klecker asked for a motion on Resolution No. 2008-055 entitle a Resolution to Canvass the
2008 General Election Results.

Mayor Klecker ask��£ ther,kI.'was anyone in the audience that wanted to discuss an item with the
Council that was noty on the agenda.
Pete Wagener of 10690 — 56th Street NE asked the Council to consider amending the Ordinance
for Accessory Buildings regarding to the size that is allowed. Wagener explained to the Council
that his attached garage is rather small, which is a basic single car garage. Mr. Wagener was
unaware of the fact that the City required more than a building permit to construct a detached
accessory structure.
Wagener reiterated by suggesting that the Council amend the ordinance to allow for a larger size
detached accessory building. Wagener brought to the Council's attention the fact that he

received a notice from the City informing him what the steps were in the process of building the
detached accessory building on his property. Wagener did not realize he needed to apply for a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and possibly a variance, which is going to cost him more.
Mr. Wagener brought up the fact that he researched the surrounding communities and found that
Monticello allows a larger size accessory building with minimal to no extra cost. Wagener
recommended that the City consider amending the Ordinance so it would be similar to
Monticello's restrictions.
City Planner Brixius asked the Mayor if he could give some back
g.,,zund information on Mr.
Wagener's structure. Brixius stated that, according to the 2005 'Albele Municipal City Code,
the City does not allow this size of an accessory building without approuf a Conditional Use
Permit (CUP). If Mr. Wagener wanted to build a structure beer :4,200 sqi444feet, he would need
to apply for a CUP and depending upon the location of t ie structure a variafi&.4, ch would
cost him about $3,000+/-. Brixius reminded the Couneil that in recent years tho sty has
approved other CUPS within the Albertville city lYmlts that allowed property ownelr��to construct
a detached accessory building/garage who applied for the CUPand or variance.

Couri asked if the Council would be flexible on the date that was set in the Resolution due to fact
that finalizing on some of the abutting property has not been completed; and due to the fact that
the Wright County Surveyor is still reviewing the final plat, which has not been recorded.
Upon hearing Couri's request regarding the date, City Administrator Kruse asked the Council to
consider waiving the 2008 Interest because it is so close to the end of the year (December 2008)

Council member Vetsch expressed his concern with the amount of water in the rear yards of Mr.
Drew and Mr. Vetsch. Council member Vetsch wanted to make sure the water issue would be

the amount the interest percentage agreed upon was 4%, and in the Public Hearing notice is

Summer of 2008, which seemed to conflict with thonfornaian he recently received.

easement that,.P imposed forws backyard. Mr. Vetsch was under the impression that a fence
would be const c�Ol 'but it was unclear as to the location of the fence. Mr. Vetsch has agreed to
purchase the 30-foot'gcross the rear of his property. But if the fence goes up across his
original backyard, he veld like to reconsider the purchasing the 30-foot piece of property. Mr.
Vetsch explained whyhe would like to reconsider the purchase because he would like to plant
some trees along the newly proposed rear property line, but if the fence goes up on his current
property line he would not be able to do so. Vetsch wanted clarification as to whether a fence
would be constructed; and if yes, what property line would be used to place the fence?
Staff reported that the fence was a stipulation of the Downtown Railroad Development. If the
fence were to be installed, it would be on the 152 Club (Ms. Holm's) property line not Mr.

d the intersection and observed its operation during a mid -day /
ersection appears to be operating satisfactorily; however, given
in the area, it is recommended that utilization of the parking lot
I parking only be secondary to the off-street arena parking
Nafstad continued with the fact that understanding the arena's parking demands require frequent
on -street parking, it is recommended that the following signage additions be considered:
• The addition of stop signs at the two arena driveways for exiting traffic.
Supplementary signage below the stop signs indicating that cross traffic does not
stop.

Signage prohibiting parking within 50' of the intersection.
Signage prohibiting parking between the two driveways and extending 50' north of
the north driveway.
Nafstad wanted to inform the Council that implementation of this additional signage and parking
restriction is believed to be a proactive approach to providing safe measures of intersection
control for the benefit of both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
Nafstad brought up the fact that as the surrounding area continues to,devela, it is recommended
that the intersection and its controls be routinely reviewed for ade nay and effectiveness.
Improvements to be considered with future development of theurratidng area include:
• Removal of stockpiles and other sightline obstructirls.
• Addition of sidewalks and trails.
• Striping of Lachman Avenue.
• Potential relocation of the arena drivewac>n
Council member Berning did not feel the proposed recommend'tions made by Assistant City
Engineer Nafstad were going to solve the traffic/pedestrian concerns with the STMA Hockey
Arena. Berning wanted some type of lights installed to draw attention to the pedestrians heading
into the building or leaving the facility.
Staff brought up the budget constraints to accampl> pedetr>an ights is more costly than

Council member Berning directed staff to obtain any and all Police reports relating to vehicle
accidents at the intersection of CSAH 19 and CSAH 37 (near Culvers-DJs). Berning reported
that there appears to be an accident at the intersection about every seven to ten (7-10) days.
Council member Fay brought up an incident he witnessed a couple weeks ago along CSAH 19.
Fay informed the Council that he was traveling on CSAH 19 and noticed a younger couple
walking along the south side of CSAH 19 (near the 3rd Phase of the Albertville Mall). The
Father and a toddler were walking in the grass area by the Albertville Mall; while the Mother
pushing a stroller walked along the street/gutter area. Fay felt there should`°be a sidewalk or trail
along the south side of CSAH 19 for pedestrian safety.

Couri reported there is one area of the agreement that has not been resolved, which has to do
with the number of deciduous trees that were to be planted along 57tb Street NE. According to
the original Developer's Agreement, four (4) deciduous trees were supposed to be planted, which
the Developer asked the Council to consider postponing the planting of the four deciduous until
after the second building was constructed. Since then, the Council requested that the Developer
plant six (6) deciduous trees.

RE: Wastewater Treatment Plant and Water Department Update
WATER
• There was a water main break at 57tb Street and Lander Ave. The 6 inch cast iron pipe was
cracked. We will be reviewing our protocols on how we handle utility breaks. In this
particular incident, emergency locates to identify other conflicting utilities and contractor
availability and availability of parts led us to schedule this for the following morning. The
water break ran longer than we would like, but under the circumstances work out well.
• American Flow Control / Waterous have a recall or remediation program. This effects
Waterous fire hydrants manufactured from 1999 to 2004. The program includes replacing
the operating rod and removing all of the old grease and replacing it with new grease.
Waterous will supply all parts at no cost plus a 40 dollar labor allowance per hydrant. The
City of Albertville has approximately 215 hydrants affected.
WASTEWATER
• Utility department staff has completed the scheduled sewer cleaning for this year.
• All the fall Maintence has been completed.
• We have constructed a temporary cover over the digesters. We have noticed an increase in
the temperature of the sludge.
• The Utility Department is completing a survey of restaurants to insure they have a
management plan in place for their grease. Staff is in the process of taking composite
sampling at several locations to determine if the strength of the waste from business and
industry is what we would expect. We will let you know if there are any surprises.
REED BED UPDATE
• The reed beds did well this summer. The ones that looked sick or thin really filled in and
grew tall. Staff continues to work with S.E.H. on managing our sludge as we are still
producing more sludge then expected.

November 12, 2008
SUBJECT: CITY CLERK — ALCOHOL COMPLIANCE CHECKS
RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider
enforcement action for sale of alcohol to minors pursuant to Council resolution 2005-15 as
follows:
Motion to levy a $500 fine to Coborn's Grocery Store, Coborn's Liquor, Hack's Liquor Store,
152 Club, Full Moon Saloon and Geez Sports Bar for failure to pass the Wright County Liquor
compliance check and remind all businesses of the progress fine schedule.
BACKGROUND: In 2002, Wright County began conducting alcohol compliance checks to
determine which establishments were selling to minors. On October 24, 2008, Wright County
Human Services Department conducted the semi-annually Liquor Compliance Check, and
notified the City on October 27, 2008 of the following establishments that failed the compliance
check. This is the first compliance failure for the six businesses within the past 24 months.
Business Name
First
Violation
($500)
Second
Violation
($1,000)
Third
Violation
($1,500
Fourth
Violation
($2,000)
Coborn's Grocery Store
24-Oct-08
Coborn's Liquor Store
24-Oct-08
Hack's Liquor Store
24-Oct-08
152 Club
24-Oct-08
Full Moon Saloon & Bar
24-Oct-08
Geez Sports Bar
24-Oct-08
KEY ISSUES:
• In July 2007, the City issued three $500 fines to establishments who failed their
compliance check.
• The fine schedule is a guideline and the Council has the prerogative to deviate from the
schedule.
• In November 2007, all Albertville establishments passed their liquor compliance check.
• Wright County may not have completed compliance checks for all Albertville
establishments.
• Both the 152 Club and Full Moon Saloon Bar have failed previous compliance checks in
May 2006, beyond the 24 months outlined in the guideline.

Mayor and Council Communication — November 12, 2008
City Clerk — Alcohol Compliance Checks
Page 2 of 2
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: In 2005, the City Council adopted non -binding guidelines for
imposition of civil sanctions against City Liquor Licensees for violation of the City Liquor
Ordinance or any applicable statute, rule or ordinance relating to alcoholic beverages. The
purpose of the non -binding guidelines was a way to communicate the amount of a progressive
fine for establishments that fail to manage their alcohol sales operation in accordance with
applicable laws.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There are no financial considerations related to this
matter.
LEGAL ISSUES: The City Council has the authority to levy the prescribed fines, or may
deviate and levy a lesser or greater fine depending on the circumstances. For consistency, it is
recommended that the Council follow the prescribed schedule for compliance failures.
