~
Finance Director Lannes began reporting on the Preliminary Budget noting that the Preliminary
Budget was included in the packet for the Council to review. She stated that due to the large
expense of the 1-94 Project, staffhas included information regarding the cost effect (estimates) to
consider before adopting the preliminary levy. Finance Director Lannes encouraged the Council
5
to consider adding $100,000 to the $1,995,549.95. Once you adopt the levy you cannot increase .
the amount, but you can decrease the amount when we do the Final Budget.
City Administrator Kruse expressed concern in regards to the 1-94 Project stating it is going to
take a combination of various items for the Council to take into consideration before proceeding.
One of the major items is the cost associated with the implementation of the improvement and
how the City proposes to fund the project. The City Administrator's recommendation is to adopt
Resolution No. 2005-33 with the additional amount of $1 00,000 for recording at the Wright
County Auditor's office. City Administrator Kruse suggested setting up a workshop to discuss
how the City should or could finance the 1-94 Project. He would include the City's Financial
Advisor Paul Donna at the workshop.
Council recommended having a representative from Wright County and the City of Otsego
present at the workshop.
City Council set a date of Tuesday, September 20, 2005 at 7:00 p.m. to hold a City Council
Workshop to discuss the 1-94 Project and financing.

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT .
Written Reoort Dndate
Public Works Supervisor Guimont reported the City received three (3) bids for the new hockey
rink to be located at the City Park. He noted the low bidder was Dennis Fehn Gravel and
Excavating, Inc. with a bid of $ 100,953. City Engineer Kasma stated the original cost estimate
was approximately $44,000 plus the cost of correcting the drainage. The additional
improvements made during the design stage, along with bidding the project this late in the
season, affected the cost to increase.
Mayor Peterson recommended taking funds from the storm water to help pay for the
construction.
MOTION BY Mayor Peterson, seconded by Council member Vetsch to approve the low bid of
$100,953 from Dennis Fehn Gravel and Excavating, Inc. for the construction of the new outdoor
hockey rink as on file in the office of the City Clerk. Motion carried unanimously.
Public Works Supervisor Guimont brought to tbe COlmcil's attention that the Fire Department
would like access to the PW Facility and one of the pickups to use when they are called to large
fires. Fire Chief Long reported that the Fire Department currently uses a firefighter's personal
vehicle to haul the additional hose needed for the larger fires they occasionally fight.
Council approved limited access to eight (8) Fire Department officers to the PW Facility and the
use of one ofthe pickups. PW Supervisor Guimont is to coordinate with Fire Chief Long. .
6
. Council brought up the suggestion to set up a separate meeting to discuss the status of the two
residential garages. With the upcoming construction of the new City Hall facility~ we need to
look at advertising to sell them and to notify the Queen~s Committee as they currently store the
Albertville Float inside. When we sell the garages~ the buyer must be aware they are responsible
for the moving expense and we should set a date the garages need to be removed. There is the
Lion~s shed on the City property as well~ which may need to be removed.
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Fire Air Packs Purchase
Fire Chief Long reviewed the background history of the air tanks situation within the Fire
Department~ stating that over the years~ air tanks have migrated from heavy steel tanks to
fiberglass to the current lightweight composites. The estimated cost would be $80~000~
designating $1O~000 in the 2006 Levy and using $69~647 from reserves.
MOTION BY Council member Klecker~ seconded by Council member Fay to authorize the Fire
Department to bid out the purchase of20 Scott Air Pack System packs~ bringing the bid
summary back to Council in October 2005 for Council consideration and delivery scheduled for
January 2006. Motion carried unanimously.
.
Fire Pumuer Truck Purchase
Fire Chief Long reported that for the past year the Fire Truck Committee has developed the specs
for a new Pumper Truck. He has met with the City of Hanover regarding the recent purchase of
a pumper truck to do a cost comparison.
MOTION BY Council member Klecker~ seconded by Mayor Peterson to authorize the Fire
Department to advertise for bids for the purchase of a pumper truck, bringing the bid summary
back to Council in October 2005 for Council consideration and delivery scheduled for January
2006. Motion carried unanimously.
National Incident Manai!ement
Fire Chief Long brought to the Council~s attention that Governor Pawlenty is promoting the
adoption of the Emergency Preparedness the Federal Government has put together. As stated in
the excerpt from the Minnesota Fire Service website~ "With the advent of the September 11 ~
2001 came the realization that there needed to be established a mechanism that ". . . provides a
consistent nationwide template to enable Federal~ State~ local and tribal governments and private-
sector and nongovernmental organizations to work together effectively and efficiently to prepare
for, prevent, respond to, and recover from domestic incidents, regardless of cause~ size, or
complexity, including acts of catastrophic terrorism." Fire Chief Long explained the cost would
mainly be for "online" training~ which is estimated under $1 ~OOO for the entire Fire Department.
We have prepared a draft Resolution included in the packet for your review.

PLANNING
LaBeaux Station -Final Plat -Council Findine:s of Facts and Decisions - Develooer's Ae:reement
City Planner Brixius stated that on June 6, 2005, the Albertville City Council approved the
request from Cascade n Land Company LLC for a commercial conditional use/planned unit
development and a preliminary plat entitled LaBeaux Station. As part of the preliminary
plat/CUP/PUD approval, the City Council placed a number of conditions that needed to be
satisfied for the project to proceed. The applicant has furnished revised plans that are consistent
with the approved preliminary plat, illustrating four commercial lots and the Lachman Avenue
NE right-of-way, for Council consideration for Final Plat approval.
City Planner Brixius noted that as a condition of the preliminary plat approval, the City Council
required sidewalk construction along both sides of Lachman Avenue NE for the full length of the
plat. The site plan shows sidewalk on the west side of Lachman Avenue NE and a partial
sidewalk on the east side of Lachman Avenue NE. The site plan must be revised to extend the
eastern sidewalk to the north property line.
City Planner Brixius further reported that the City shall require $7,500 per acre of commercial
land being subdivided. This parkland dedication shall not apply to land platted as outlots for
future development. With the submission of the revised Final Plat, the cash contribution shall be .
calculated and included in the Developer's Agreement.
In review of the revised CUP/PUD final stage plans and Final Plat, we recommend approval
subject to the following conditions:
Planned Unit Development
1. Site development shall proceed in accordance with the submitted plans dated 12 April
2005, revised 16 August 2005.
2. Cross easements for access and parking as submitted for City Attorney review and
recorded with the final plat.
3. City Council approval of the parking number count and the development agreement
outline the provisions for constructing the proof of parking stalls.
4. The pharmacy drive through land is not approved with this application. The applicant
submits a separate application when the building tenant is confirmed.
5. Landscaping on the west line of Lot 2, Block 1 is intensified to provide greater
screening of the back of the building.
6. Signage plan shall comply with standards outlined in the June 6, 2005 PUD approval.
.
8
. 7. Sidewalks shall be constructed on both sides of Lachman Avenue NE.
.
.
Final Plat
1. Final plat is revised to label all lots, blocks, and outlots.
2. The final plat is revised to create two outlots east of Lachman Avenue NE.
3. Applicant agrees to the construction of Lachman Avenue NE and contribute $93,500
in cash and donate the outlot with the land remnant next to the parkto the City.
4. Sidewalks are constructed on both sides of Lachman Avenue NE.
5. Easement size and locations are approved by the City Engineer.
6. City Engineer approval of the grading and drainage and utility plans.
7. Payment of $7,500 an acre of subdivided commercial land exclusive of outlots.
8. Applicant enters into a development agreement with the City for the final plat and
PUD.
Mayor Peterson wanted further clarification on the cash of $93,500 to be designated for
construction of Lachman Avenue NE from 57th Street NE to 60th Street NE for the LaBeaux
Station off-site improvements.
City Attorney Couri stated this is not a firm number. There is additional information needed to
complete the calculation.
Council wanted confirmation on the sidewalk along 57th Street NE. Council was under the
impression it would continue along 57th Street NE from the Fire Hall to the intersection of CSAH
19, which would run along the State Bank of Long Lake.
Tom Brown, representing LaBeaux Station Development, suggested staff contact the President
of the State Bank of Long Lake to obtain approval for LaBeaux Station to install the sidewalk in
conjunction with their development of the construction LaBeaux Station.
Council had a concern with the traffic light situation at the intersection of CSAH 19 and 57th
Street NE wondering ifthere will be sufficient space for possible stacking of cars waiting to turn
either left or right.
Council questioned what the width was for the access or driveway off of 57th Street NE, which
goes between the Bank site and LaBeaux Station. Next question Council asked was ifparking
will be allowed along the driveway or access.
9
Staff reported that the width appears to be 24-feet wide at the entrance on 57th Street NE.
Parking along the drive-lane will not be allowed, that is why we asked for cross-parking
throughout the developments.
.
Staff went on to report that the construction of Lachman Avenue NE will not be completed at
this time. When the future sites are ready for construction is when the continuation of Lachman
Avenue NE will be completed.
Staff also brought to Council's attention the schedule for the Barthel property and possible
construction. As you know, the City has the option to purchase some land from the Barthels. A
date or dates of purchase have not been set, as staff is waiting to hear from the Barthels.
MOTION BY Council member Klecker, seconded by Council member Fay to approve the
LaBeaux Station Final Plat, Council Findings of Facts and Decisions as amended at tonight's
meeting and on file in the office of the City Clerk. Motion carried unanimously.
City Attorney Couri very briefly went over the Developer's Agreement summarizing once it is
signed and the appropriate amounts for SAC, WAC, Park Dedication and other expenses have
been paid the applicant may begin grading. There is nothing stating that the Final Plat needs to
be recorded before they can begin grading the land. The recording should be recorded prior to
Building Permit approval.
MOTION BY Council member Klecker, seconded by Council member Berning to approve the .
LaBeaux Station Developer's Agreement as amended and on file in the office of the City Clerk.
Motion carried unanimously.
Smackdown's - Rear vard Variance
City Planner Brixius stated the applicant has given written notice of his intention to pull his
application for the staircase leading to the second floor of Smackdown's Bar & Grille.
Albertville HotellW ater Park - General Conceot Plan Review
City Planner Brixius stated that Albertville Holdings is seeking general Concept Plan Review
approval for a proposed hotel/waterpark with a convention center and restaurant. The proposed
10.47-acre site is located at the southwest intersection of 67th Street NE and Keystone Avenue
NE. The site is currently zoned PUD (Planned Unit Development) with a base zoning of B-3
Highway Commercial District, which accommodates automobile related land uses.
City Planner Brixius informed the Council that on August 9, 2005 the Albertville Planning and
Zoning Commission voted in favor of the applicant of the general concept plan of the Albertville
HotellWaterpark Development to proceed into the Planned Unit Development stage.
City Planner Brixius wanted to make sure the applicant was informed of the Sewer Access
Charges (SAC) fees and Water Access Charges (WAC) fees associated with a development of
.
10
.
.
.
this type and size prior to the preliminary plat stage. Other conditions to be resolved with the
development stage are:
Processing of a preliminary and final plat to combine the property involved in the
development site.
Vacation of any existing easements currently on lots of record.
Construction of Keystone Avenue NE to 70th Street NE to establish second means of
access for this intensity of land use.
Along with conditions set by the City Engineer's report dated August 4,2005.
In conclusion, staff feels that this proposed hotel/waterpark development with convention center
and restaurant is an appropriate land use for this PUD. Due to its visible location off 1-94, it has
the potential to draw visitors to the community for extended stays. City Planner Brixius noted
this is a concept plan and does not require a motion by the Council, however, does require
informal approval to continue to the development stage. With the Council acceptance of the
general Concept plan it does not give the applicant development rights.
City Planner Brixius stated he has contacted the Holiday Inn located in Otsego regarding the
water consumption calculations and was informed they recycle the water. In addition to the
standard items the City requires for development, staff is requesting a related traffic study report
done on other hotellwaterparks.
Council asked if Futrell Fire has reviewed the general concept plans for the hotel. Council's
concern is the height of the building and whether or not the Albertville's ladder truck will be able
to handle it should a fire or other situations arise. In summary, Council instructed staffto have
Futrell do a quick review before they proceed any further on the development stage.
Council questioned if the waterpark would be open to the general public or would it is restricted
to hotel guests only? If it was open to the general public that would change the traffic counts.
Council agreed that it was a good concept with the recommendations made by staff. The
Council's main concern was with the height of the building and the Fire and Rescue.
ENGINEERING
Bolton and Menk Monthlv Renort
City Engineer Kasma briefly reviewed the progress report asking the Council if they had any
questions or concerns.
Albertville City Park Hockey Rink
City Engineer Kasma reported on this earlier in the meeting under Public Works.

Wright County Garage .
City Engineer Kasma stated that in his research on the Wright County Truck Station an
additional 15 feet of property along the east property line will need to be acquired and dedicated
for the upgrade of CSAH 19. After dedication of the additional property, the remaining/final
width of the Truck Station parcel will be approximately 170 feet. According to the Wright
County Highway Department, no additional property will be required along CSAH 18.
Therefore, the north/south property length will remain at 372.38 feet. In conclusion based on the
final lot dimensions, the result square footage for the parcel is approximately 63,304.6 square-
feet or 1.45 acres. The actual usable area will be slightly less, when one considers the required
sight-line triangle needed at the southeast comer of the property.
MOTION BY Mayor Peterson, seconded by Council member Vetsch to proceed with the
consideration to purchase the Wright County Garage located on the comer of CSAH 19 and
Jason Avenue NE in Albertville. Motion carried unanimously.

Council brought to staff's attention after the rainfall; he noticed a section of the trail was under
water. He was wondering if that section should be re-graded to prevent this in the future.
Staff stated they would look into the matter and get it resolved.
LEGAL
Set Public Hearinl! for Liauor License Fees
City Attorney Couri reported that according to the Minnesota State Statutes the City must
conduct a public hearing to raise the liquor license fees. It requires 30-day notice; therefore, I
recommend we start the process now prior to the end of the year when the City looks at the fee
schedule.
MOTION BY Mayor Peterson, seconded by Council member Fay to set Monday, October 17,
2005 as a public hearing for consideration to amend the Liquor License Fees, date payment is
. due and 2:00 a.m. closing. Motion carried unanimously.
13
Cedar Creek Golf Course Resident Discount
Council inquired about a residential discount from the Cedar Creek Golf Course.
.
City Attorney Couri researched the Developer's Agreement for the Golf Course and it stated the
residents of Albertville would receive a discount for the first five years of operation. The
Developer's Agreement was signed in 1998 with the Grand Opening in 1999. 2005 is the sixth
year of operations; therefore, they met the agreement of the first five years.
ADMINISTRATION
Written Reoort
City Administrator Kruse informed the Council on Wednesday, September 7th there will be a bid
opening for the expansion of the STMA Arena. If the bids are within budget and all parties
agree, we should be awarding the bid as soon as possible so the building can be occupied this
year.
Council suggested getting creative with the financing of the project. There is a chance of no
support from St: Michael. Council recommended obtaining a commitment for the STMA Arena
Board for $100,000 for the project.
70th Street NE - Otsel!O
City Administrator Kruse met with Otsego' s City Administrator Mike Robertson regarding
moving ahead with 70ili Street NE construction. It appears Otsego may want to work with
Albertville. We need to complete the report so both cities can proceed with the construction of .
70ili Street NE.
60ili Street NE ProDosed Purchase of a House
City Administrator Kruse reported a homeowner approached him on 60ili Street NE, stating his
home may be for sale shortly due to job relocation and was wondering if the City would be
interested in purchasing his home.
Council was not interested in purchasing the home and renting it out. Should the home have
been abutting any City property they may have considered it. At this time, the Council denied
the option to buy and rent the home.
Elevations of Buildinl!s
Council brought to staff's attention the elevations of buildings. Council looks to staff when a
developer comes before the Council with their site and building plans for review. Everything
appears to look good on a piece of paper. But when you witness the actual construction and
observe the end product the Council was surprised to discover it doesn't quite look the same as it
did on the piece of paper.
Staffwill do their best to ensure the buildings' elevations are better explained in the future.

City Hall Clock
City Administrator Kruse stated that as we progress with the construction of the new City Hall
facility, there has been some discussion on the clock to be placed on the exterior of the building.
Bonestroo has e-mailed in regards to the size and type of clock design the Council had in mind.
City Administrator Kruse went on to explain the cost differential for a back-lit clock. The back-
lit face will add an additional $1,200 per clock. In addition, the light canister that will house the
close movement and the fluorescent lighting is an additional $3,000 per clock. This will roughly
add $4,200 per clock for this scenario.
The second issue to resolve is the size of the clock and if you want numbers or other ways to
identify the time.
Council came to the consensus with a five (5) foot clock with a ring around it, back-lit, with
roman numerals or the rings.
How much lom!:ef will S.E.H. be with the City
Council wanted to know when S.E.H. will have completed any outstanding projects or
construction items. It appears they are dragging on and on. Council understands we are in a
transition period, but when does it end.
City Administrator Kruse noted that a majority of the items on the list are close to completion.
Kruse went on to state that data is being transferred from Engineer to Engineer, which takes time
for the new Engineer to get his bearings on the construction progress and status. As we went
over earlier, the City and S.E.H. put together a list of items for them to complete, along with the
considerable amount of time and effort put into the software and the data, which was entered into
the system.
Council set Monday, September 26,2005 -7:00 p.m. as a Workshop to continue the discussion
items from the March Workshop.

Authorize Recycling Contract
RE:
The City of Albertville has contracted for curbside recycling services with Wright Recycling for
a number of years and currently the contract is expired. The contract is for collection of all
recyclable materials for residents every other Thursday. Under the new agreement Wright
RecyCliIig has offered low rate per house as in the past. The contract states that once 20 new
homes are added, Wright Recycling will receive an additional $42.00 per month. This works out
the rate they agreed to back in 2003 of $2.1 0 per house. They have not increased the per house
rate even though that contract expired December 2004. Since the expiration, we have been on a
month-to-month contract. In order to guarantee this rate of $2.1 0 per house, the City of
Albertville needs to sign the two-year contract.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff is requesting Council to authorize execution of the two year contract.
CITY COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Motion to approve to authorize execution of the two-year contract.

SUBJECT: Wastewater Treatment Facility Report
Water Department
We dug up the intersection at Kalland Avenue NE and CR37 to replace the bolts on the gate
valves. All the bolts on all the valves have been replaced in the development except the hydrant
valves and the valve by DJ's Hardware under CR 19.
.
We have installed over 600 radio-read water meters since the start in May 2004. This total
includes new homes and retrofits.

Gridor Construction is continuing with the construction on the WWTF upgrade. They are
nearing completion of the reed beds. About 75% is complete on the oxidation ditch and work has
begun on the clarifier. They haven't started on the anoxic selection tank as of yet.
I did not have any problems with the WWTF or any lift station from the September 12th storm.
The flow was 1,339,000 taking into account the average flow is about 475,000 gpd.
I have been slowly draining Pond No.2 in preparation for expansion of the Public Works
Facility parking lot or other development in the area.

RE:
Albertville - Hunter's Pass Revised Final Plat
FILE NO:
163.06 - 05.19
BACKGROUND
Minnesota Development Agency LLC is selling the lot in Hunter's Pass First Addition to Town
and Country Homes. In examining the final plat, Town and Country Homes inquired if there
may be an opportunity to expand the building envelope of select lots through some lot line
adjustments.
On August 30, 2005, Minnesota Development Agency and Town and Country Homes met with
City staff to discuss the option of combining lots and shifting property lines. Upon review, staff
recommended that any change to the plat occur prior to recording the current final plat. This will
avoid the vacation of easements, provide clean lot descriptions and avoid complicated dedication
requirements. Since the lot adjustments do not impact the street alignments, block configuration,
or the engineering plans, and reduces the lot count, staff indicated that this would be processed
through amendment to the final plat. This amendment must be approved by the City Council.
ISSUES ANALYSIS
The revised final plat affects Lot 1, Block 1; Lot 1, Block 5; and a portion of Block 6.
Lot 1, Block 1. This lot dimension and configuration remains unchanged. The change to this
lot is the reconfiguration of the drainage and utility easement that occupies the north end of the
lot. Modification of site grading in the field has reduced the need for this size easement. The
expanded building pad would enhance the 15,000 square foot lot. Any change in easement
dimensions or location shall be subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
35
Lot 1, Block 5. The final plat revision will enlarge Lot 1, Block 5 from 15,681 square feet to .
16,691 square feet by adding some land from adjoining Outlot A. Outlot A contains a
stormwater pond, the proposed lot line adjustment does not appear to impact the pond design.
Block 6. The proposed plat revision reduces the lot count from 22 to 20. This reduction is
accomplished through the elimination of two cul-de-sac lots and enlarging Lots 2-10, Block 6. A
comparison of current and new lot sizes are illustrated below:
Block 6 Old Lot Area New Lot Area
Lots (square feet) (square feet)
1 15,575 15,575
2 11,715 12,113
3 13,149 13,795
4 13,382 13,782
5 14,255 23,224
6 11,734 12,416
7 14,255 12,445*
8 10,052 13,181
9 8,468 . 19,058
10 11,467 17,113
* Lot 7 was reduced in size
.
The adjusted lot lines expand the building pads to provide greater flexibility in house location
and house size. The net result of the plat revision is the reduction of the lot count within the
block by two lots. The reconfigured lots are contained within the current approved Block 6 and
will not impact adjoining open space or shoreland areas.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on staff review, we recommend that the City Council approve the revised final plat with
the following conditions:
1. The City Engineer's review and approval of all drainage and utility easements related to
size and location. Block 6 must provide proper easements for the water main to be
extended under Mud Lake.
2. The applicant provide a revised listing of building setbacks for the final plat outlining the
PUD approved setbacks for each lot in this coved subdivision.
3. The developer enters into a development agreement that outlines all conditions and
approval of the original final plat review.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Larry Kruse
FROM: Alan Brixius
DATE: September 14, 2005
RE: Albertville - City Hall
FILE NO: 163.05 - 05.06
In conversation with the residential property owner to the west of City Hall, we have the
following recommendations and concerns with the installation of the screening:
1. The property owner is concerned with the location and appearance of the proposed
fence along his east property line. He has inquired if the fence installation may be
delayed to allow him to enjoy the appearance and the space offered by the existing
pine trees. He feels that for a while after the project is completed, the pines may be an
adequate screen. In this respect, we would suggest making fence installation one of
the last components of the project. This would allow the City to determine if the pine
trees are a sufficient screen or if immediate fence installation is required.
2. The current pine trees are not salt tolerant. As such, salt from the parking lot may damage
the trees. Additionally, we anticipate as these pine trees mature, they will crowd each other
and the lower branches will be lost. This will result in an ineffective screen and less attractive
landscape appearance. While the aforementioned conditions will not be immediate, the City
should commit to fence installation and have a landscape replacement plan for future
installation.
3. The current grading plan shows the parking will be elevated more than one foot higher than
its existing elevation. This elevation will direct the headlights into the pine trees four feet off
of the ground elevation. Closer examination of the resident's window levels should be done
to evaluate where the headlights will strike the home.
We are seeking comments from City staff and City Council on these recommendations and
concerns.

CITY OF ALBERTVILLE
COUNTY OF WRIGHT
STATE OF MINNESOTA
RESOLUTION NO. 2005-38
RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMITI
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT, REZONING AND THE SITE AND BUILDING PLAN
FOR THE NEW ALBERTVILLE CITY HALL LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF
MAIN AVENUE NE AND 60TH STREET NE WITHIN THE CITY OF ALBERTVILLE
WHEREAS, the City of Albertville has submitted application for conditional use permit,
planned unit development to construct a new City Hall on a site legally described as follows; and
WHEREAS, the Albertville Planning Commission met and held a public hearing on
August 9,2005 to consider the City Hall application and continued it to the September 13,2005
meeting; and
WHEREAS, upon review of the staff reports and hearing public testimony, the Planning
Commission closed the public hearing and recommended that the City Council approve the
conditional use permit planned unit development application with the conditions outlined in the
September 8, 2005 planning report and August 3,2005 engineer's memo with additional
conditions recommended by the Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, the Albertville City Council has received the City Hall application, staff
review documents, and the Planning Commission recommendation, and agrees with the findings
and recommendation of the Planning Commission.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of Albertville,
Minnesota hereby approves the subject to the attached Findings of Facts and Decisions.
Findings of Fact: Based on review of the evidence received, the City Council now makes the
following finding of fact and decision:
51
A. The site is legally described as Lots 1,2,3,4, and 5 of Lot A of Northeast 1/4 .
of Northwest 1/4, the North 50 feet of Lots 8 & 9 except North 33 feet of Lot
A of Northeast 1/4 of Northwest 1/4, the part of Lot 7 of Lot A of Northeast
1/4 of Northwest 1/4 Lying Northerly of Line 25 feet Southerly of MSD at
Right Angle to & Parallel with South Line of Lot 6, Lot 6 of Lot A of
Northeast Northwest Subdivision 1-120-24, Lot 8 except North 50 feet of Lot
A of Northeast Northwest Subdivision 1-120-24.
B. The planning report dated September 8, 2005 from Northwest Associated
Consultants and City Engineer's comments of August 3rd, 2005 are
incorporated herein.
C. The four lots consisting of the current City Hall location were rezoned from P/I
"Public/Institutional" to B-4 "General Business District" on September 6,
2005, making them consistent with the other five lots of the new City Hall site.
D. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will
not overburden the City's service capacity.
E. Traffic generated by the proposed use is within capabilities of streets serving
the property as proposed. .
F. The requirements of the Albertville Zoning Ordinance have been reviewed in
relation to the proposed use.
G. The proposed actions have been considered in relation to the specific policies
and provisions of and have been found to be consistent with the
Comprehensive Plan.
H. The proposed use will be compatible with present and future land uses of the
area.
I. The proposed use conforms to applicable Zoning Ordinance performance
standards and approved planned unit development standards.
1. The proposed use will not tend to or actually depreciate the area in which it is
proposed.
Decision: Based on the foregoing information and applicable ordinances, the City Council
APPROVES the conditional use permit planned unit development and site and building plan
based on the most current plans dated August 31, 2005 and information received to date subject
to the following conditions: .
52
.
1.
Submittal of a preliminary and final plat to combine the nine existing parcels into
two lots.
2. Cross easement between the two lots shall be allowed for the shared parking area.
3. Pine trees on the west edge of the property shall be replaced with deciduous trees
and under story plantings when the spruce trees no longer provide adequate
screemng.
4. The dogwoods on site shall be transplanted into the foundation plantings of the
new building or add to the under story plants along the fence line. The dogwood
shall not remain in its current location, or the spruce trees will crowd out the
plantings.
5. The existing tree to remain the patio area of the new building shall be removed
due to tree survival is unlikely due to construction traffic, site grading, and the
patio design.
6. Proposed plant varieties shall be reviewed for salt tolerance.
7. More substantial shrub plants shall replace the perennials in the parking islands.
.
8.
Canopies of the proposed ash tree shall be shown at three-fourths maturity on the
landscape plan.
9. A revised photometric plan shall be submitted to show the compliance of the foot-
candles along the right-of-way.
10. Comments of other City staff.
11. Meet conditions provided in the August 3,2005 Engineer Report.
a. Additional spot elevations are needed on the plan set to complete a thorough site
drainage review. Drainage parameters should utilize a minimum grade on
bituminous of 1 % with 1.5% being preferred. The site is relatively flat and
therefore we understand that 1 % may be needed in some areas. In regard to
drainage in green space areas, a 2% minimUm grade shall be utilized.
b. If the northwest comer of the parking lot is to remain a high point, the City might
be able to hold off on any improvements along the south side of 60th Street. If
erosion along the grass boulevard (north of existing City Hall) becomes an issue,
storm sewer and/or concrete curb and gutter can be extended at a future date from
the southwest quadrant of 60th Street and Main Avenue.
.
53
c. The island located within the turn around and drop-off area may present
snowplowing difficulties. I recommend alternatives to the island or the design of .
the island be proposed and discussed with Public Works.
d. Grading is shown on the railroad right-of-way. A work within the right-of-way
permit will be required from the railroad for this work. A 2% grade for the outlet
should be utilized.
e. I would like a detail on how the overland drainage will drain beneath the sidewalk
located along the south end of the turn around.
f. A maximum grade of 2% should be utilized in the handicap parking areas. Top of
concrete curb and sidewalk should match bituminous elevation.
g. A permit from the Wright County Highway Department will be required for the
sanitary sewer and watermain service extensions. A 6"xI2" PVC saddle shall be
utilized for the sanitary sewer extension. A 6"x6" wet tap will be required for the
water serviced.
h. Gutter out for the concrete curb shall be identified on the plan set.
1. Concrete curb and gutter shall be B618 style.
J. Although not shown on the plan set, numerous Scotch Pines, Norway Pines and
Dogwood bushes exist along the west side of the property line. These trees and
plants should be located and protected on the plan set.
k. Surmountable concrete curb and gutter should be considered in the turnaround
area.
.
1. The existing parking lot (bituminous and aggregate) should be reclaimed for use
within the proposed parking lot, if cost effective.
m. I suggest that the sidewalk directly adjacent to City Hall be considered for an
upgraded sidewalk. Options for coloring, stamping, tooling, etc. should be
presented to the City Administrator, Larry Kruse.
n. Numerous spot elevations need to be added to the plan set prior to City approval.
Based on our conversations with Jeff McDowell from your office, these
elevations will be identified during Construction Drawings (CD's).
o. The "final" first floor elevation shall be placed 2.0 feet above the 100-year flood
elevation or 2.0 feet above the emergency overflow elevation, whichever is
greater. This applies to the rain garden in the southwest corner of the site. It
should be the goal of BRAA to direct the majority of the overland flow to Jason
Avenue NE or CSAH 18. This should minimize any flooding conditions onsite.
12. Flag pole shall be removed from the center island of the turn around and be
replaced with an appropriate tree.
13. The flagpole shall be relocated to the front of the building. Placement of the flat
pole shall consider the location of the utility line (these lines cannot be placed .
underground).
54
.
.
.
14. A future trash enclosure shall be illustrated on the existing City Hall site, which
would be constructed if the north building would be sold.
15. Alternative fencing types to the cedar fence shall be reviewed.
16. The residence to the west of City Hall has asked for the installation of the fence be
postponed until the pine trees no longer provide the necessary screening. The
fence shall be installed near the end of the project or delayed for a to be
determined number of years to determine the impact of the new project will have
on the residential property and the type of screening needed.
17. The location of snow storage shall be illustrated on the site plan. Snow storage
shall be located so as not to reduce the required minimum number of parking
spaces.
18. A complete irrigation system shall be installed on both properties.
Adopted by the Albertville City Council this 19th day of September 2005.

On August 18th, bids were opened on the above referenced project. A total of three (3)
bids were received, ranging from $100,953.00 to $146,569.90. The low bidder was
Dennis Fehn Gravel and Excavating, Inc. from Albertville.
The original cost estimate was approximately $44,000 plus the cost of under drains.
During design, an extensive storm sewer system was added. This storm sewer was
designed to collect runoff water from the proposed hockey rink, the existing free skating
area, and the existing ball field. Grading and a crushed granite surface were also added to
the area just south of the proposed ice rink. The additional improvements plus the late
season bidding have greatly pushed the costs of the improvements above those originally
estimated.
I will be at the September 6th City Council meeting to discuss possible
options/alternatives and answer any questions you may have.

Mr. Larry Kruse
City Administrator
5975 Main Avenue NE
Albertville, MN 55301-9776
Dear Mr. Kruse:
Bids on the referenced project were opened at 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, September 7, 2005. The
bids received are listed on the attached spreadsheet, and the three low bidders have been
contacted with outstanding questions regarding construction completion time.
Based on inquiries within our company, KUE Contractors, Inc., has proved to be a competent
contractor. This bid is well below the estimated construction cost of $750,000, and in this very
volatile bidding market, we believe it is a responsible bid. Kue Contractor's Inc. proposes to
reduce the completion time of the building from 150 days to 90 days, however would require that
liquidated damages not be assess unless completion extends beyond 120 days. SEH recommends
that the City award the contract for the Locker Room Addition to KUE Contractors, Inc., with
their low bid amount of $650,322.
If you require further information or have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Russell D. Gilson

September 7, 2005
Dear Minnesota Mayors,
Last week, Governor Tim Pawlenty received a request from the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) to provide immediate shelter for as many as 3,000 survivors of Hurricane
Katrina. There is a strong likelihood that many of these displaced Americans will choose to
reside in our state for weeks or months. Some may make Minnesota their permanent home.
State officials have determined that Camp Ripley will serve as the initial intake center for the
survivors. Governor Pawlenty has asked the three of us to work with all of you in leading an
effort to coordinate Minnesota cities' response to the needs of these individuals.
We are working with the state Department of Homeland Security and Emergency
Management, the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, and with the League of Minnesota
Cities to collect data from Minnesota cities regarding at least two long-term needs for
survivors wishing to temporarily or permanently relocate to Minnesota. You will be contacted
within the next few days for information about:
Housing- By working with all community stakeholders we hope to find sufficient housing for
short-term and long~term residents. We are immediately seeking to identify vacant apartments,
unused nursing home or dormitory space, sponsor or anchor families and any availa1?le hotel and
motel rooms. We will also need to work with local social service agencies to transition survivors
into more permanent housing, including affordable homes and rental properties as available. It is
not clear at this point what survivors will have in the way of financial resources to pay for
housing, so we would like to know about all available housing, including donated and low-cost.
Jobs-- Whether it be short-term or long-term employment, many of the hurricane survivors will
want to move to self-sufficiency as quickly as possible. We need to identify public and private
sector job opportunities in our communities, as well as get a sense of the general employment
environment.
To facilitate our data collection efforts and be ready to respond to our inquiries, we ask that
you immediately begin to take an inventory of these two items in your community.
While you are administering this inventory, we also suggest several activities critical to relief
efforts in the short-term.
. Encourage your residents and local businesses to make financial contributions to
reputable relief agencies, like the United Way, American Red Cross, Catholic Charities,
and the Salvation Army.
. Make your public facilities like libraries, community centers, and fire stations welcoming
for donated supplies to be used at Camp Ripley. Communicate to your community the
types of supplies that are and are not needed. Call the United Way's contact line (dial
77
211) or call the State of Minnesota at either 651-297-1304 or 1-800-657-3504 for further .
instructions. United Way 211 and Hope for the City are coordinating these efforts.
. Identify additional resources-faith communities and other social service agencies-that
can be helpful with resettlement efforts if and when hurricane survivors arrive in your
community.
The League of Minnesota Cities web site (www.1mnc.org)willfeaturefrequentupdates.as
events warrant, on how Minnesota cities can contribute to relief and relocation efforts. Also feel
free to turn to the City of Saint Paul's website where we will do all we can to keep everyone up
to date on the most recent information, www.ci.stpau1.mn.us. We also welcome any comments
or ideas you have about ways we can work together in the coming weeks and months.
Thank you for your care and concern at this challenging time. We know that by working together
we can provide comfort to those most in need, and show the entire nation Minnesota's generous
nature and caring spirit.
Sincerely,
Mayor Randy Kelly Mayor Gene Winstead Mayor JeffPelowski

ST. MICHAEL - ALBERTVILLE SCHOOL DISTRICT 885
CITIES OF ALBERTVILLE AND ST. MICHAEL
August 29,2005 - JOINT SPECIAL MEETING
The St. Michael-Albertville School Board, along with Superintendent Ziegler, met with officials
from the City of Albertville and City of St. Michael on Monday at 6:00 p.m. in the senior high
boardroom.
School board members present: Drew Scherber, Carol Steffens, Robert Helgeson, Gayle Weber,
and Jeanne Holland. Representing the City of Albertville: LeRoy Berning, Ron Klecker, Torn
Fay, John Vetsch, Mayor Don Peterson and City Administrator Larry Kruse; Representing the
City ofSt. Michael: Dean Eggert, Joe Hagerty, Cindy Weston, Joe Marx (in at 7:10 p.m.), Mayor
Jerry Zachman, City Administrator Bob Derus and City Engineer Steve Bot. Also present were
Superintendent Marcia Ziegler and St. Michael Administrative Assistant Diana Berning. Charles
Lefebvre was absent.
Crow River News as Official Paper
Holland introduced the topic by commenting on the disappointment the school board has with
the Crow River News. There were a few specific instances mentioned of items that should have
been in the paper. Peggy Bakken and Aaron Brom, representing the Crow River News, were
present at the meeting to address the concerns. Brom said the paper is certainly open to
suggestions. The school board would like to use the paper as a communication tool, but are not
able to because of the lack of news and low subscriptions. There was additional discussion on
how information gets in the paper, whether St. Michael-Albertville could have their own separate
paper, various staffing needs for the Crow River News, and the role of the school board to
communicate their own news. Brom said everything the paper receives will be published in the
paper. The difference in school news between Buffalo or Elk River and the St. Michael-
Albertville School District is that those schools have a full-time communications director who
forwards news to the paper. Scherber said Brom does a good job; the paper just needs more
employees so that he is not spread so thin.
Concession/Bathroom Facility at Die Woods
Ziegler stated the school board is curious where the planning for the concession / bathroom
facility at Big Woods Elementary is at. Derus commented that the City of St. Michael has been
working with Earl Bauman from the school and has received some designs from a few students
at the school for the building structure. There was discussion on funding for the building, and
the amounts each of the cities have pledged toward the building. The school has already paid for
the water and sewer service and are wondering whether something will eventually be built.
There was discussion on a building similar to the S1. Michael Lions shelter at the recreation
center. The general consensus is to move forward with plans for a minimal building using the
amounts pledged by both cities, and if other organizations want to see something added they can
provide the funds for it.
79
Status of Gold's Gym vs. YMCA
Ziegler said the YMCA has approached the school board and is still considering coming to the .
area. She asked for an update on St. Michael's decision with Gold's Gym and also asked if the
cities would be able to support both Gold's Gym and the YMCA. Derus spoke of the differences
in bids from Gold's Gym and the YMCA including, size, amenities, subsidizing, day passes, and
resident discounts. A committee was created, and they discussed the various options. An
outdoor sports bubble was included in the Gold's Gym proposal, but was ultimately decided
would not fit with the aesthetics of Town Center. (Marx in at 7: 10) There was more discussion
on the differences and what the YMCA could offer that Gold's Gym could not. The overall
consensus was there are not enough people in the area to support both a YMCA and Gold's
Gym; the Cities and school board do not have enough money to provide for both; and the YMCA
had their chance, but were not as competitive as Gold's Gym. In the future, it may be possible
for the YMCA to have a smaller space connected to the schools that could assist the FYCC in
programming and funding.
School Land Acquisition and Bond Referendum
Ziegler introduced the- subject of school land acquisition and the bond referendum planned for
this November and said she and both city administrators had taken a tour around the cities
looking at land for a new school site. The school board needs about 100-120 acres ofland for a
high school and elementary school. There was discussion on the possible locations and the
availability of sewer and quality of roads. At this point, the school board is asking only for what
is needed. Peterson does not like the Otsego site, as it would create more development to the .
north, and CR 37 would not be able to handle all the traffic. LeRoy Berning said it would be
nice to keep the school centrally located within the district. Derus commented that the schools
are in a tough spot with all the development, and it is important for the cities and the school
board to work together and share ideas and support.
Hockey Arena
Kruse introduced the issue and referred to information provided to the councils and school board.
Included were construction plans, a copy of the bid schedule, and the financing plan. The aim is
for the cities and hockey association to pay for the locker rooms, and the school to pay for a
second sheet of ice, if the bond passes. There was discussion on the school's prior contributions
to the hockey arena. A member of the hockey association and a hockey coach were in the
audience to show support for the new locker rooms and possible sheet of ice. They encouraged
the cities to set a dollar amount and get it done. There was also a suggestion that during the off-
season, one of the sheets of ice could be used for indoor soccer or baseball practice. There is a
definite need for improving the current arena. Both councils will need to discuss the issue and
come to an agreement before anything can be decided.
Alb
ertville vs. St. Michael Softball Game. September 9. 2005
There was discussion on the softball game between Albertville and St. Michael planned for
September 9. It was pointed out that September 9th is the first football game for St. Michael-
.
80
.
.
.
Albertville School High School , and it would be better to have a little competition during
halftime instead.
The next joint meeting will be scheduled later, perhaps in November.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:15 p.m.
