MOTION TO ADJOURN COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 5, 1987 The regular meeting of the Albertville City Council was called to order by Mayor Loretta Roden. Members present included Gary Schwenzfeier, Donatus Vetsch, and Bob Braun. Don Cornelius was absent. Others present included Maureen Andrews, Bob Miller, Ken Lindsay, Thore Meyer and Loren Kohnen. There was a motion approving the agenda made by Donatus Vetsch and seconded by Gary Schwenzfeier. All were in favor and the motion carried. There was a motion made by Bob Braun and a second by Gary Schwenzfeier which approved the minutes of the September 21, 1987 Council meeting. All were in favor and the motion carried. Gary Schwenzfeier briefly updated the Council on the progress of the water problem in St. Michael. It appears that testing of the water system was being ordered to assure that there are not problems throughout the entire system. Bob Miller reviewed with the Council the lease for the rental of the land .-. at the Wastewater Treatment Facility. The lease was for teh period of 60 months (5 years) with a graduated rent schedule. There was some discussion regarding whether or not the City was required to advertise the availability of land since it had been earlier in the year. Bob Miller had reviewed the issue and determined that the City was under no obligation to readvertise. With no other discussion there was a motion made authorizing the Mayor and City Administrator to enter into a five year lease agreement with Kenneth and Harold Zimmer for the rental of the farmland at the Wastewater Treatment Facility. The motion was made by Gary Schwenzfeier and seconded by Bob Braun. All were in favor and the motion carried. The income received and bills to be paid were reviewed and approved. A motion was made by Donatus Vetsch and seconded by Bob Braun. All were in favor and checks 8215 through 8246 were approved. There was a clarification on bonding for street improvements and levying for cost. Maureen Andrews checked to see if the Street Maintenance program was done as part of a 429 project would the City be required to extend the tax levy over the length of the bond. In checking it appears that the cost could be levied totally over the first years of the bond payment. The Council voted to increase the Fireman's Relief Association retirement payment to $25.00 per year per fireman. The motion was made by Donatus Vetsch and seconded by Gary Schwenzfeier. All were in favor and the motion carried. The increase is to be retroactive to January 1, 1988. Mayor Roden next reconvened the hearing on the sign ordinance. Notice of hearing was read and the hearing proceeded. COUNCIL MINUTES PAGE 2 Bob Miller first reviewed with the Council the mayor points of ordinances. There was discussion regarding the degree of angle that the City shoulc allow. It was agreed that because of curve of Interstate 94. A 10o angle would not be appropriate instead 900 was approved. The next item discussed was Section 8, Sunc. 2 - Other Requirements. There was some question as to whether or not the "adjacent area" language was most appropriate. And finally it was agreed that subpoint B under the same section should read... No advertising device shall be erected or maintained in that part of the City which lies south of County State Aid Highway 37 from west City limits asterly to Interstate Bridge No. 202. There were some additional minor changes made correcting section numbers referred to in ordinance. With no other changes or comments, Donatus Vetsch made a motion to adopt ordinance No. 1987-3 entitled "AN ORDINANCE REGULATING ADVERTISING DEVICES (BILLBOARDS) AND BUSINESS SIGNS AND PROVIDING A PENALTY FOR VIOLATION THEREOF which was then seconded by Bob Braun. All were in favor and the motion carried. The Council then lifted the moratorium on advertising devices. The motion to release the restriction was made by Gary Schwenzfeier and seconded by Donatus Vetsch. All were in favor and the motion carried. There was then a motion made to adjourn teh hearing. The motion was made by Bob Braun and seconded by Gary Schwenzfeier. All were in favor and the hearing was closed. Mr. John Gries was present to request that the Council consider approving Tax Increment Financing for a convenience store/ gas station for Pat Meyer. The project would run about $350,000 to $400,000 for land, Buildings, tanks etc. In addition to these costs there is $46,455.82 in assessment payments. Mr. Gries' client is requesting tax increment for site improvements, Assessment payment and possible land write down. There was some discussion regarding $93,000.00 in tax increment bonds that may still be available from an earlier project in the same district. Preliminary discussion with Gruys, Johnson and Associates has determined that the $93,000.00 could be sued because the bond is producing enough to retire the debt. It appears that there would be no legal or economic problems in using the money provided that Holmes and Graven has had an opportunity to review the preliminary information. Other issues figuring into the request is the owner would like to get project done in 1987, which would mean that the project would go on the 1989 Tax Roles. It was also agreed that the City would need a preliminary opinion on using the $93,000.00 for another project. It was pointed out that the $39,000.00 plays a key issue in the discussion because the bonds were sold under tax exempt statutes allowing it to be used defferently than T.I.F. proceeds approved under current tax laws. The Council agreed to set a public hearing on Tax Increment Financing for November 2nd at 8:00 p.m. for Pat Meyer's Convenience Store/Gas Station pending the outcome of Holmes and Graven legal opinion on using the $93,000.00 of non committed money. The motion to proceed was made by Bob Braun and seconded COUNCIL MINUTES PAGE 3 by Donatus Vetsch. All were in favor and the hearing was set. The minutes should reflect that Pat Meyer will be responsible for any expenses incurred getting the Holmes and Gaven opinion or any other expenses that the City might incur. Bacause of the scheduling conflict Mr. Gries left prior to Pat Meyer being present with the plans for the structure. The Council requested that they have an opportunity to review the plans before the end of the evening. The next item discussed by the Council was the maintenance of the school's sewer line. Ken Lindsay and Thore Meyer also were involved with the discussion. It was pointed out that there has been a "grease" problem in that line for years and that the City's sewer ordinance says that pre-treatment can be required. It was the feeling of the Ken and thore that regardless to which line was used that pretreatment would be required. Because of the non -accessibility of the line that runs through the industrial park it would be best to leave the system working as it is presently functioning, which includes the cleaning of the line on an annual basis and the use of a de -greaser. In order to continue the discussion on the school the Council needed to open and continue the hearing on hte 1988 budget until after its concussion. The hearing on the 1988 Budget was called to order and notice was read. There was a motion made by Bob Braun and seconded by Donatus Vetsch opening the hearing. All were in favor and the motion carried. There was then a motion made to continue the hearing until after the discussion on the sewer line was concluded. The motion was made by Gary Schwenzfeier and was seconded by Bob Braun. All were in favor and the motion carried. The Council continued the sewer line maintenance discussion. There was the discussion regarding the possibilityfor the City requiring that the School install a grease trap if the problem continues to exist, but that teh option would only be used as a last resort solution. Maureen was requested to send another letter to the School Superintendant explaining the Cities stand on the issue. The letter should also suggest that the school document the amount degreaser used and the frequency used so that when the City reviews teh issue again that the School has some records supporting their maintenance program. No other action was taken on the issue. the hearing on the 1988 Budget was reconvened on a motion made by Gary Schwenzfeier and a second by Bob Braun. All were in favor and the hearing was reopened. Mayor Roden went through each section of the budget giving a catagory total and asked that if there were any questions about one section that then it could be reviewed in more detail. The following information was presented.
