>> Make a motion. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> Motion carried. >> Yeah, carried. >> Um consent agenda. So, what we have on the consent agenda is

5
00:16:22.959 --> 00:16:41.199
um motion to approve the May 13th city council work session minutes and motion to approve the bills It's all in your packet. There's one question I guess for the Abendo electric. Is that for like exit lights and stuff like that for the pool

6
00:16:41.199 --> 00:17:13.679
or >> Yes, I remember it saying >> I see emergency exit. I was kind of curious. >> I'll make a motion. Second. All in favor? >> All right. Old business. Joint Powers

7
00:17:13.679 --> 00:17:33.520
Truck Association Agreement. Well, as you can see, I think this appendix A. Is that what it was called in the thing forever? Was it appendex A? >> Yes. >> Or is it exhibit A? >> I think Anyway, >> back and forth between versions, but I

8
00:17:33.520 --> 00:17:54.640
can look and make sure and let Chad know. >> Yeah, I mean I think it >> ex some white out and white whatever >> it's not that difficult, >> right? >> This explains the formula.

9
00:17:54.640 --> 00:18:09.760
>> Yep. Explains a lot. stuff that was kind of >> left out in the exhibit A because it was nonexistent on our site. >> And it matches up to what they described, which is perfect.

10
00:18:09.760 --> 00:18:25.120
>> Yep. >> So, I mean, this looks good. >> Bob has not seen this yet. This was something Chad shared today. Bob are their lawyer or our lawyer have not responded to Chad sharing this with them

11
00:18:25.120 --> 00:18:40.640
yet. So, this is a sneak peek because it's not gone through the proper channels yet. >> Okay. >> So, it's up on that and I don't know that we can really do anything about it until Bob's the Bobs look at it, right? >> Yeah. I mean, the the the

12
00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:56.320
agreement looked good. We were we were okay with the agreement >> as a council. We were good with the agreement. >> This looks good. So, I mean, I think at the work meeting in a couple weeks >> on the 10th. >> Yeah. My week is completely backwards.

13
00:18:56.320 --> 00:19:12.720
Um, I think on the 10th we should probably be pretty good then if that's >> Yeah, because this lines up to the formula. 50% on population, 50% on the bu only buildings, no land. And then

14
00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:29.200
it's going to be off a little just just because of the two and the 3% from Bel because they don't get factored in. >> And I don't know I don't know how much >> the attorney has to even >> look into this. I mean >> we want them to be the ones that

15
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:45.280
communicate it to us though in the official >> like communication string that we >> Yeah. That's why I say put it session on the 10th. >> Yeah. But other than that, I think it's it looks good and I think we're

16
00:19:45.280 --> 00:20:01.520
>> close to the end. >> I never asked Chad. Have you heard? Is it when the next meeting is scheduled? >> As far as I know, there is one. >> Okay. So, should I follow up with Chad to make sure when when is >> you want me to say? I'm not on the agenda. So, >> Sure. There's not a scheduled meeting

17
00:20:01.520 --> 00:20:18.720
though, is there? >> No, we were waiting on >> Yeah. >> the uh city council to decide what they're up to. and we were waiting on the exhibit or new contend or whatever it is. >> Yeah. So, we got this but it was sent so the whole chain since day one has been a

18
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:34.320
cluster of who gets it red lining everything. So, what we discussed was that everything needed to go through the bobs and then the bobs would give it to us. So, then they made sure everything was straight. So, Chad gave this

19
00:20:34.320 --> 00:20:50.720
>> he CCed both the Bobs and us. I asked them to CCS because I'm like we need to be able to >> keep things moving forward. >> So that's it was sent to the MOS so they're good with it. We're just waiting on that. So I would say by the 10th we should be pretty good to approve

20
00:20:50.720 --> 00:21:08.000
everything. >> Can I ask a question? >> Sure. Absolutely. >> Can you uh do you you can't approve it at work session though? Yeah, absolutely. We can >> we were concerned as to how long this has been continued to drag out.

21
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:23.520
>> Well, we've been concerned on how long it's been being drugg out, too, because it's like we put a word who in and they change it to them. So, it's it's been going back and forth and it's I think it's been everybody's >> I'm full aware of what's been going on.

22
00:21:23.520 --> 00:21:39.919
>> Yeah. So, like I said, I think we're at the end. We just we want everything to go through the Bobs or at least through the association to your Bob from your Bob to our Bob and our Bob to us. So then that way everything is tracked with versions.

23
00:21:39.919 --> 00:21:55.919
>> Um just in full transparency too, there's been a lot of conversation like our Bob, lawyer Bob is not in full agreeance with what we as the city council feel like we should agree with. So, I mean, we definitely want to be able to talk to you guys about that when we bring you back to the joints powers meeting just as like an awareness type

24
00:21:55.919 --> 00:22:13.200
thing, but as a council, we've discussed the the concerns that our lawyer Bob have brought forward and we're comfortable with those things and just moving forward with what we have. Um, and I feel like when we were at the last joint powers meeting, we heard the same thing that you guys are comfortable with

25
00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:32.320
these things. It's just fine-tuning some of the nomenclature language. Do you agree? >> I guess it's not my position to I don't want to say at this point. >> Okay. >> I mean, it's it's it's gone on long enough. It needs to be finalized.

26
00:22:32.320 --> 00:22:48.480
>> Yep. >> Yep. >> Let's just leave it at that. >> Okay. >> Do you know if there's another meeting scheduled? >> No, we're waiting on the city council. >> So, >> that's what Chad and I talked about. So, >> okay. If the council was to say that we are

27
00:22:48.480 --> 00:23:05.039
going to meet on the 10th for the work session and we are going to request our lawyers to make sure that they have this reviewed between the boss all that jazz would then the joint powers then want to set up a meeting for that following next week would be a >> I'll talk to Chad tonight. >> Okay, that'd be great

28
00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:22.080
>> because it's Chad and my call. So, >> right, >> we're >> No, and we're waiting on the city council because as we all know, it's been back and forth and >> just time to bring it to an end. >> Yep. We all >> I agree.

29
00:23:22.080 --> 00:23:38.720
>> Agree. I think it's been a headache for everybody. >> So, >> I started this several years ago. >> Yeah. >> Well, for any faces. >> Yeah. >> Well, I'm hoping we can bring a smile to your face and getting it executed. That would be our goal. You

30
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:53.360
>> um do you want to follow up on the exhibit or the appendix know like the language at the top of this um to make sure it matches that? >> Well, I've been on I've been vice president well over 20 years. So, I'm totally aware of what's there. >> Okay.

31
00:23:53.360 --> 00:24:09.679
>> So, I mean it's there's no new nothing new here for me. I do realize the city has not been exposed to what we've been doing for the last whatever years and they have to come up to speed. >> Sure. >> And that's mainly what's having to take

32
00:24:09.679 --> 00:24:24.799
place. So >> So the thing that we're looking for is the contract. If it says appendix, great. If it says exhibit, the Bobs are going to get bucky about that. >> I'm pretty sure it says exhibit. I'm almost positive. >> I don't know because I I've lost track

33
00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:40.880
of the versions. But I can pull >> I know it says exhibit. So I mean either way >> I'll pull up. >> It's a simple fix. >> We won't have a problem with >> potato. Real simple. >> Yeah. Just make this match what's in the thing and then we're like I said come

34
00:24:40.880 --> 00:24:57.520
the 10th I see no reason why unless you know >> a disaster or they say it's not great. But >> we've talked our boss through the concerns that he has. He's not in total agreeance with us, then that's okay.

35
00:24:57.520 --> 00:25:14.159
>> Well, yeah. I mean, >> am I totally in agreement with every word in there? No, but I know what needs to happen. So, >> yeah, >> you know, I don't worry about the little glitches that have been along the way. So, >> y I did it with I'm also on the road

36
00:25:14.159 --> 00:25:31.039
fire association board and I did it with them like 10 15 years ago and it's the same kind of thing. drug out for years. What it takes, it works. >> Yeah. Yep. >> And we we really do appreciate the patience and just getting through it with y'all. I mean, we're not here to be

37
00:25:31.039 --> 00:25:49.080
against each other. We're just trying to make everything good. So, but yeah, I'd say by the 10th, probably schedule that meeting after the 10th and we should be should be pretty good there. >> Thank you. >> Y Thank you.

38
00:25:49.600 --> 00:26:05.600
So if you guys or oneians could follow up with Bob >> I just sent. >> Okay. Um that this has >> okay by both of them. >> Yep. This has to be done by the tenants. >> Yep. >> So all right. Good. >> Um next is the good you county policy

39
00:26:05.600 --> 00:26:21.279
coverage for Boltsfest and cleanup. All right. So um it was brought last week or two weeks ago. We were going we wanted to talk about the cleanup process. So what I did was

40
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:35.760
John Haneiki and I had spoken and we decided that you know we can we can bring on another Posi member at a cost and who knows um or it was kind of brought up where we had a really good

41
00:26:35.760 --> 00:26:53.440
idea that why don't we hire some kids 4 FFA or uh the ninth graders are going on a big does anybody have any ninth graders? Ninth graders going on some big trip next year, right? You got a ninth grader. >> Next year.

42
00:26:53.440 --> 00:27:09.440
>> Yeah. >> Is it DC? >> Yeah. And they're fundraising. So, what the idea is here is uh Don Clipworth kind of kind of headed this up, which I'm very very appreciative of her that she wants to get the kids that are going

43
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:26.240
into ninth grade next year to clean up some horse droppings and we will pay them. That's not too bad. >> We will pay them with, you know, the gambling fund or whatever it may be that it'll be our donation to the school for

44
00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:43.279
or however that's worded to um have some kids pick up. They know the times that the posi is there from 8:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. both nights. Um we're working on shovels and poop buckets and everything else. So they

45
00:27:43.279 --> 00:28:00.720
will be good to go, right? So that's my idea. Anybody got any? >> So donation for services on both nights. What is um their goal for fundraising? Do we know >> a lot? So my thing was like well I I

46
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:16.399
don't know. I don't know what the right amount is. So I'm just like 400 bucks for a donation. >> This would be Friday night. >> This this would be Friday night, Saturday night. Okay. >> They do their own poop and scooping on Sunday because they have a little wagon that follows behind.

47
00:28:16.399 --> 00:28:32.640
>> That's the parade, right? Pooping and scooping. >> So, I don't know you guys. >> They probably be out like what? Saturday morning. >> They can be out whenever we want them to. So, she said, "Do you want them out Saturday morning and Sunday morning?" And I said, "Well, it's probably going to be driven all over. You be scooping

48
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:47.440
pancakes then, but >> you know, um, you know, send them out a little bit." And that's why that's why I say like 400 bucks, right? They go out, >> let them decide. >> They go a little bit. >> They go out a little bit on Friday night. >> They wake up, do a little bit on

49
00:28:47.440 --> 00:29:02.960
Saturday morning, go out Saturday night. Wake up, do a little bit on Sunday morning. We're helping the future of our children in going on this trip and fundraising for them. >> And correct, I think we have 22K in the

50
00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:19.840
Lions Gambling Fund around that. Is that correct? >> That's a guess. It's based on what they >> So we have percentage. >> Yeah. >> So we we can pay them out of that. >> I've never >> just just an idea. I just >> I need a motion. I mean if you guys

51
00:29:19.840 --> 00:29:35.440
>> um all I need is a motion to approve that and then uh I'll let Don know. Um and whatever >> you saying Don or Dawn >> that's what I said. >> He's using a Pittsburgh accent.

52
00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:51.679
>> Um Gone is gone. It's a safe person. >> I'll make a motion that we give $100 per session for four sessions essentially or $400 for the entire weekend. >> Okay, >> I'll second that. >> All in favor? >> Opposed? Motion carried. All right. So,

53
00:29:51.679 --> 00:30:08.240
I will reach out to Don. Um I know she was in talks with Carl to get everything going. So, uh, Von can >> he's overseeing the >> No, he oversees the same thing. >> He oversees the school board.

54
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:24.279
>> Oh, okay. >> So, school board funding, stuff like that. So, >> um, we're good. >> Okay. Um, next up is the cod the cotification

55
00:30:25.679 --> 00:30:41.200
>> and I think that's >> we it just there wasn't a decision made after all the presentation information that he had. It was just a thank you um if you want to make a decision now or if you want to talk more after next session. This just wasn't a

56
00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:57.520
decision made. I know it's a it's going to be about a sevenmonth process to get this thing done one year. I think it's something that the city actually needs to get everything updated and get out of this 1,800 things that we got going on. I I'd

57
00:30:57.520 --> 00:31:13.440
be willing to make a motion to approve and go through with it. >> What to what level do you want to make your motion on? Like because there's different levels. Well, just for the uh I think it was the 7,900 >> that that level >> that gives you the PDF that's >> PDF the basic what we what we need to

58
00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:32.000
get everything up to code get all all our stuff to >> do we have a funding source for this >> would have to come out of the general >> it would come out of the excess money that we saved >> or it could come out of the

59
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:47.840
>> wait excess money we save from the So we had roughly what 75 $79,000 that we had budgeted and saved for the plow truck and we spent 52 55 >> 35 45 >> we also didn't >> Well, we had to pay taxes, wasn't it?

60
00:31:47.840 --> 00:32:03.279
>> It was just it was 395. >> Oh, that's right. Okay. >> That's more in alignment with the expensure that allocated. >> Bingo. >> What was the name of it again? >> The CEDA contract. >> I I will I will say I only have one concern. I have actually two concerns,

61
00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:18.799
but I'm just going to express them. >> My first one is I'm afraid this is going to incur a lot of legal bills. >> I I really I got a I got a gut feeling that I could be way wrong. Bob made a caught me because they're they're going to, you know,

62
00:32:18.799 --> 00:32:34.080
ask a million questions or send this questionnaire. Now look, maybe it'll be five questions and Bob can answer them in 10 minutes or they could be 300 questions that he's going to take 40 hours to answer at $200 an hour. That's my only concern.

63
00:32:34.080 --> 00:32:49.919
Um that and the page limit because I don't know what they're looking at. Um I don't know what you scanned and sent them. All of our books like >> leather bound,

64
00:32:49.919 --> 00:33:04.799
>> but three of them. >> Okay. So, we have no idea what the pages are then. >> They were handwritten in legend. >> Okay. But they're only going back to 1976, though. >> Anything before that, they're done. >> Anything before that. So, I guess that's

65
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:21.679
my other concern is we only have a 5% overage on either the single or the dual, right? And after that, that's $18 a page. So, I guess those are the only two

66
00:33:21.679 --> 00:33:37.760
things. Like, how do you even get a handle on how many pages we're talking here? >> I think >> I mean, that's how many are we allowed for that? >> Well, well, it's either it's either 8 and 1 half by 11 single, right? Or 8 and 1 half 11 dual.

67
00:33:37.760 --> 00:33:52.880
So, it probably >> No, no. I'm saying how many pages are we >> um 5%. So like 32 pages maybe what it depends on whether they're single what's 5% >> and they're going to look at the current like

68
00:33:52.880 --> 00:34:08.320
>> think of Minnesota city's suggestions and build off of that. So there's no real way to tell how many pages this is going to cost us. >> Yes be 33 over >> Minnesota code is going to be used and then ours has been going

69
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:27.679
>> wait. So, are we talking like this book that we get, is it going to have 100 pages in it? We don't know. But that's what I'm saying. Like, if we did 8 1/2 by 11 single column, the allowance for an overage would be 660 plus 33. So, it couldn't be any more than 693 pages.

70
00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:43.839
>> Okay. So, that's okay. So, almost 700 pages. I don't think it will be because if you look at the city if you go to the city of Pine Island which this company did I think right now they're at the upper twos >> and that's after ordinances have been added >> but we don't know what they started with

71
00:34:43.839 --> 00:34:58.320
that's all I'm saying >> but I guess like also thinking the notion that we're only going back to 76 >> okay 76 I don't think we'll have >> and they want to adopt the limo sort of cities and then see how this plays into those adopted

72
00:34:58.320 --> 00:35:14.240
>> and then supplement from there. I think that's a in my opinion that's risk we need to take. But I do think >> I know this hate I hate risk. >> I do think one of the things that we do need to be very diligent about is do not go to Bob until we as a council have had

73
00:35:14.240 --> 00:35:30.640
a chance to look at the questions that the codification company has provided before going to Bob with anything because we do have quite the expenditures for lawyers. So, I know I know as far as they were saying, they have their own team of lawyers that looking at all this to make sure that it's going to match up to what it should

74
00:35:30.640 --> 00:35:46.960
be legally. >> Bob is only going to be there at the end to just check what they write out. That's >> and I would like us to look at it before we send it to Bob. >> And yeah, that's something we can I would imagine we could just tell him. No, I I don't know because they mention

75
00:35:46.960 --> 00:36:01.839
>> um >> cuz I guess one thing that I look back at is Bob was saying, you know, meeting the guy and he's like, I'm surprised that my firm has worked with you before, but I've never met you. >> So, it makes me think that

76
00:36:01.839 --> 00:36:19.040
Bob shouldn't be involved in it. His he was stating that his firm was involved with it because basically they work with cities. you know, this codifica recotification company has worked with a lot of cities that Bob's

77
00:36:19.040 --> 00:36:35.040
>> company also works with. So, I guess it's the overlap there, but he didn't state that, you know, hey Jeff, how was golf last week? >> Specifically asked that question. How much of his time? >> Well, he he said he answered it in the email, but I'm only going by what they

78
00:36:35.040 --> 00:36:52.320
wrote here, right? You um blah blah blah blah. Where is it? Um utilize its its meaning them staff of attorney to review all materials to be codified and prepare a written report for the city attorney within 7 months of

79
00:36:52.320 --> 00:37:08.720
this contract and return to the code questionnaire prior code and new ordinance submit to the city and draft of the code and then a legal report um blah blah blah blah blah. >> So I guess one thing that I think about

80
00:37:08.720 --> 00:37:26.160
is could we Can we start another committee with two city council members and the administrator to be on it to review these reports prior to being reviewed by Bob? Hopefully, we can try to >> at least be aware of what's going to

81
00:37:26.160 --> 00:37:42.560
legal before we get the bill and the sticker shock. >> Yeah, >> I think we definitely need to be diligent. >> Yeah, I don't mind that idea whatsoever that we look at it first. Is there going to be questions we can answer without Bob? >> Yeah. Mark your suggestions on what I feel like we should move forward with.

82
00:37:42.560 --> 00:37:59.200
>> So, so I'm sorry I want to Okay, so in these books there were handwritten ordinances from 76 and at what point did they then become electronic? Was it 8077?

83
00:37:59.200 --> 00:38:19.440
>> Never. >> There's honestly there's >> See that's what concerns me. We're at such a risk if we >> I mean as bad as it sounds like you said we didn't renew seed at $16,000 this is only going to cost half of that.

84
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:34.240
Do I want to use another $8,100 because of legal fees and everything else? No. God no. But at the same point I look at as as a as we have a cushion. Hopefully we don't use that cushion.

85
00:38:34.240 --> 00:38:51.520
But in reality, no, I agree. >> Want to repeal them or something? >> You can ask Pine Island Administration how much they box since they did it and they have our same >> and did they ask them if they were in

86
00:38:51.520 --> 00:39:06.400
the same kind of pickles? >> Yeah, I I can ask her. I hadn't up until this point, but I can I can ask her. >> Can you give us some faith in that a little bit maybe? >> Because I'm assuming now that How many pages were in this book? >> Fast pattern.

87
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:21.280
>> No, I mean how many pages were in our book if you take everything out from 1976? Do you know >> this all hand? >> Another question. All a lot of that all that stuff's not going to go back in this as well because they're go through all the legal and anything that's

88
00:39:21.280 --> 00:39:37.520
>> been overridden by law they have to remove. >> Yeah. So all those ordinance that may have been written in 1977 89 whatever it is could all be taken up just because they're statues are out of out of order

89
00:39:37.520 --> 00:39:52.880
>> just hate unknowns but that's those are my only concerns that and I get it and I mean if that's all we're going to do we're not going to do any of these other optional things. I I don't think we need the optional things the basic reconification and the basic book PDF

90
00:39:52.880 --> 00:40:08.720
>> like you said even on the meeting we can adjust and add things and change things all we need that's our copies it's our book >> I do think next year's budget we need to put in a little cush for we need to consider we need to consider monies in

91
00:40:08.720 --> 00:40:23.920
the allocated fund to maintain this >> um >> right because there are some recurr not much but >> yeah there's going to be some maintenance fees essentially. >> Yeah. Up things like >> hopefully it's like 500 bucks a year at most. But >> well, and then I think like Lisa was

92
00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:40.320
saying too, in theory, this should solidify our code and ordinances. So in reality, our legal fees should go down on issues of this matter. >> Do you do not want to leave yourself open to

93
00:40:40.320 --> 00:40:55.119
>> the loopholes that we currently have? I'm sure if someone wanted to pick it apart, we have so many loopholes. There's a lot that's that's already wrong right now that we definitely need to fix no matter how we look at it. >> Yeah. So, this is protecting us from future lawsuits.

94
00:40:55.119 --> 00:41:11.839
>> It is would be greatly appreciated. We have to try to find something to Bob and he's like, you know, I have this and then this and then you find something else. And I'm like, no, because there's all these little tiny things hanging out all over the place. >> Yeah. Question is, how much should we

95
00:41:11.839 --> 00:41:28.079
got in legal fees just from that alone? back and forth conversations trying to find this in a book >> which again you know we get this done I should say now >> if you would look into that be super helpful at least that's okay

96
00:41:28.079 --> 00:41:46.560
>> I guess really we should have you look into it right >> yeah whatever whatever >> come back to that on >> all right well looks like that's it for old business new business is the development agreement between the city

97
00:41:46.560 --> 00:42:02.240
of Goodyu and the Goodyu County Habitat for Humanity. I had a couple questions and one large question on this. So, currently we don't have an agreement

98
00:42:02.240 --> 00:42:19.119
with them. >> This is for the money. We need an agreement for them to get the $55,000 that the grant at see the guy Oh, what was his name? I feel >> Todd that he got for Habitat.

99
00:42:19.119 --> 00:42:34.720
>> Yeah. So, this EDA used to do this. >> Okay. >> So, that's probably why you've never seen it. >> Okay. So, my question is, so it states that this is for a new house that's being built >> for next >> and where is it being built?

100
00:42:34.720 --> 00:42:49.760
I I don't know if he has that information yet, but he has it slated to be built in the next school. >> Is it going to be a house in Goodu? >> Yes. >> Can we feasibly fit another house in Goodu due to the moratorum?

101
00:42:49.760 --> 00:43:07.119
>> Well, I'm not certain he's gotten that far. I don't even know. I don't know. Bob has been another Bob Hley has been has been taking working with this. He handed me or emailed me this and said, "This is what we need that the state of Minnesota is saying for us to get the

102
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:22.400
money passed to them." He submitted the work orders. He submitted the scope of work. He did all of the stuff. Um, >> so should we maybe reach out to the MPCA to make sure we can fit another house? >> Well, I have the lot already. >> Yeah, the lot. >> Which lot?

103
00:43:22.400 --> 00:43:38.560
>> Well, it says GC Habitat for Humanity owns a vacant lot in the city of Goodiew. >> Yes. So, so, so if it's next to the last Habitat house, I don't know how you can build a house there because that lot was originally a single lot. >> Now, we're going to put two houses on that single lot.

104
00:43:38.560 --> 00:43:54.079
>> Yeah. >> I'm no expert, but >> that's still one extra house. >> That was asked at that time, too. When they did that, they wanted to share. >> So, can we afford >> sewer? >> Is that you can't share that? >> It's too No, that's what they had asked

105
00:43:54.079 --> 00:44:10.240
at the time. >> It's a plumbing code violation. one. I know they had asked at that time and they said no, it has to be separate. >> So that's my question is according to the MPCA, I don't want to get their fine. So I

106
00:44:10.240 --> 00:44:26.720
think we need to before we agree upon this, we need to talk to them. >> Well, the houses are the last two are being built. So I mean the houses are being built. The last two lots that are empty have just got >> but those were factored into this. We

107
00:44:26.720 --> 00:44:44.240
are now on a moratorum of any lots that are vacant in Rat Goodu cannot be built. >> They're building on our street. >> I know but those were calculated into the moratorum. So you want to know where this Habitat for Manny house is

108
00:44:44.240 --> 00:45:00.960
and I think we need we need to ensure that it was calculated into the moratorum that the MPCA Minnesota pollution control agency gave the city of Goodyu because we were given a moratorum. We already ignored it once with good you

109
00:45:00.960 --> 00:45:17.760
living that went over like a farting church. I don't really think we're going to get the good graces of them again. >> I'll ask. >> As a person who deals with the MPCA, they are not a fun agency. >> So, we don't know what lot they're talking about. >> They're talking about the lot up by my

110
00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:34.480
house by the water tower that they split. It used to be a double. It's a two It's a 1acre lot that was a double lot. It had one home on it. They split it in half and put two They're putting two houses on it. The

111
00:45:34.480 --> 00:45:51.119
other thing I'll say is those are some of the ugliest lots in town because you can reach out your window and hand your neighbor your clothes if you wanted to because they're so smashed together. >> So, we need to make sure if they're planning to put it in that lot up there that's been broken into that that second

112
00:45:51.119 --> 00:46:06.319
home dwelling was approved with the MPCA. >> Do we we don't have that information. >> Jason um I'm sorry, Todd. I don't know what he >> Let's not ask son. >> No, no, no. I don't know what

113
00:46:06.319 --> 00:46:21.040
information he gathered before he wrote the grant, >> right? >> That's just it. >> Well, I'm sure Habitat for Humanity knows the answer to this. >> I don't think so. I think it would be on our moratorium. >> They know the way or not.

114
00:46:21.040 --> 00:46:37.680
>> I think this this would either be Jason would either know or find out. I think in reality, instead of being a legal question, I think it's an engineer question. Oh, >> yeah. So, I think Reese and Jason I just I know that they I know that they

115
00:46:37.680 --> 00:46:53.119
said they were going to build two houses there. I just I can't remember back if >> Yeah. if because they said they were going to do two houses. One was now, one was later, right? >> But I couldn't remember if it was

116
00:46:53.119 --> 00:47:11.359
approved under the MDCA. So, >> so who can answer that quickly? Jason and ord >> I think we have to table a discussion. >> Yeah. Until the June work session, >> but it is a I mean I I like the idea that the kids go up there and build a

117
00:47:11.359 --> 00:47:32.560
home. >> I won't have anything yet. >> All right. So tableing that till the next one. Um till the next meeting. Uh, next up is the liquor license renewal for Second Street Pub.

118
00:47:32.560 --> 00:47:52.079
Um, doesn't look like they have any warrants. Not warranties. >> We call it >> citations. There you go. Citations. >> Big words. >> Hey, ma'am. Okay. Um,

119
00:47:52.079 --> 00:48:12.680
so we just need to Who fills this section out? Is that the sheriff's department or is it the >> everything blank? They need to make sure they have something there. >> This one says none. This one says nonclickable.

120
00:48:16.000 --> 00:48:31.680
>> Um, so we'll need motions to approve the second street pub. >> Um, I'll make a motion. >> Second. Second. All in favor? >> Opposed? Motion carried. All right. Same thing for the corner bar.

121
00:48:31.680 --> 00:48:48.400
>> Um I'll make a motion. >> I'll second. >> All in favor? I opposed. Motion carried. Um if you guys would um just because I don't know where your guys' paperwork ends up, but either use a Sharpie or something and

122
00:48:48.400 --> 00:49:10.160
>> I was wondering about that. Get rid of all social. >> Oh no. Oh no. No. No. We should just shred these. >> They put this in already. They submit this to the county as well already. Right. >> The state. >> The state.

123
00:49:10.160 --> 00:49:28.079
>> The state already has that information in their system. So >> we can exit off ours, but they're still going to have it. >> Yep. Um, so we approved the liquor license for Second Street and the Corner. Uh, next is resolution 26-06

124
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:44.319
LG230 application to conduct offsite gambling good Lions Club request for approval of raffle at the chicken barbecue August 16th, 2026. >> I will make a motion. >> Second.

128
00:50:46.720 --> 00:51:03.760
>> Already gave the joint powers update. >> Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. I'm sorry. >> I'm sorry. >> You had a long week. I don't >> It's been um All right. I got nothing from gas. Um, >> flower committee's planting their

129
00:51:03.760 --> 00:51:21.760
flowers on Saturday. Then we're going to get most of the pots out except for the ones that will be around the Volksw. >> Are you doing that at your house? Do you need any? >> No, we're doing it behind the shed, the city shed here. So, uh, sure. If you

130
00:51:21.760 --> 00:51:40.400
want to come, we're 8 a.m. Saturday morning. >> Do you guys need any fertilizer? >> Uh, no. >> We can get some. >> Dang it, they're too late. Um yeah, uh public works comments. He's

131
00:51:40.400 --> 00:51:56.319
not here. I didn't even see anything. Um I talked to him a couple days ago. Um sounds like they're just grinding along trying to get this pool um up and ready. Uh admin comments, you got anything?

132
00:51:56.319 --> 00:52:12.720
Council comments? >> I have one comment. Um, I got approached by a resident that said that the swimming lesson sign up was not, and I'm paraphrasing here, the most

133
00:52:12.720 --> 00:52:27.839
efficient. Um, that they stood in line. It was cold. Um, only to fill out the forms, which I guess were not available online. Stood in two separate lines. I've I wasn't here. I don't know.

134
00:52:27.839 --> 00:52:46.480
Um, and then asked why these can't be done online. >> I think one of the reasons why they can't be done online is because there's only so many um slots available and >> Oh, I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about pool passes. Pull passes

135
00:52:46.480 --> 00:53:03.680
and swing. So, there were two issues, right? The why can't I buy pool passes online? Um, and then the whole um the way that I guess the line, and I'm paraphrasing here because I wasn't here. Um, that they stood in line and

136
00:53:03.680 --> 00:53:19.599
then they came in and had to fill out the forms. Like the forms couldn't have been printed up online. I don't know what forms they're talking about, but like had to stand there and fill them out as opposed to bringing them and saying,

137
00:53:19.599 --> 00:53:35.760
"Here are my forms." Um, and that only like a couple people could come in at a time and >> well, yeah, I don't >> line for 45 minutes and it was freezing and there were kids there and

138
00:53:35.760 --> 00:53:50.000
then >> I don't why can't we do it online? >> The only separate questions. >> Yeah. I mean, the only complaint that I got was somebody was in line filling out their paperwork and somebody literally cut in front of them and was like, "I signed my kid my kid up for the wrong

139
00:53:50.000 --> 00:54:06.400
class. I need to switch it." And they were like, but I mean, I think they're doing the best they possibly can. Were either one of you guys here? >> Were you? Okay. Um, so I don't know. I thought it went I mean I know my wife

140
00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:23.680
signed up and she said it went pretty decent other than the one little hiccup but just >> so I I guess I guess I was just surprised that they had to fill out the forms when they were here. >> Yeah, >> it is a first come first serve kind of thing. And as the spots all fill, they

141
00:54:23.680 --> 00:54:38.880
have to look to see what's still available and they're all free, you know, interchangeably on the same >> Yeah. >> Google, you know, spreadsheet. So they're filling and everything as they go. And then um not only that,

142
00:54:38.880 --> 00:54:55.680
each one is numbered. So like if you get a pool pass, well, you need to go to the next number. So the next person in line gets that next number. Could they have the forms filled out ahead of time? Maybe. And then just sign the numbers as you're going, but then you'd have only one person doing that.

143
00:54:55.680 --> 00:55:10.960
>> And they do some beforehand, just want the pass. And then so we had like 10 people already signed up to just get pool passes and then they're coming in and get the lesson. It is it's >> the day they came in to do the

144
00:55:10.960 --> 00:55:28.640
>> not the lesson at once unfortunately. >> So the day they came in to do the lessons they also were doing pool passes I think. Maybe >> throw this out there. Don't do them both on the same day. >> Let them pay all at once at the same time. >> Yeah. It wasn't advertising. Oh, that

145
00:55:28.640 --> 00:55:43.520
was another thing. Nowhere did it say that that that this was a second resident said that they were unaware that we didn't take credit cards because nowhere was that noted. >> We don't take credit cards for any across

146
00:55:43.520 --> 00:56:00.079
>> that doesn't matter. It it shall >> I mean you can pay your bills online but >> yeah but we don't take a swipe >> and I know we talked about that in the past to try to go that route just >> Oh and I'm not saying we it's a problem. I'm just saying that maybe we should say

147
00:56:00.079 --> 00:56:16.880
C only cash and checks. >> Y >> I don't know if I don't know who this person want I don't know if they're relatively new. >> Yeah. >> Um >> we'll just blame them. >> Yeah. I don't know. >> Is one other thing too that caused probably a lot more congestion at one time because Wildcat here.

148
00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:32.160
They're they got somebody new and at that time too said that taking all of those um lessons schedules for that two weeks that they normally block out first and do ahead of time and then give us all the information to put in the system

149
00:56:32.160 --> 00:56:48.799
before that day wasn't up. So it was all done. So there's like onethird of those six weeks. >> So wild cat didn't do pre-registration >> were usually taken care of before this. So this was four weeks to fill in. It was all six weeks.

150
00:56:48.799 --> 00:57:04.880
>> Wildcat care chose not to because it was too much of a pain. >> Okay. So people were here. >> So why why was why was it a pain for them? >> Did they say >> they said they didn't have the staff? >> They Yeah. They've been through a couple directors in a very short time.

151
00:57:04.880 --> 00:57:20.720
>> This is the Wildcat Fair >> and that was the big change from this year. >> That's why with me at K. >> So maybe >> Yeah, I'd have to watch the process next year to see how it could I wasn't here. So >> I think there's a couple opportunities.

152
00:57:20.720 --> 00:57:36.559
>> Yeah. >> Um >> telling Wildcat care is not an option. >> Are you could be the new director >> on your screen time? He's talking to you. Oh, I know. Um, if he was, I'm going to blame it on you. >> Wild catare is still taking the kids

153
00:57:36.559 --> 00:57:52.160
over. They're just they didn't want to deal with the sign up. >> I don't think it should be an option. >> No, you're here's your sessions. You take care of that, sign them up, and then we will have the teachers here, see how many slots you have, then you could approach it that way instead. um if

154
00:57:52.160 --> 00:58:07.440
they're gonna if you're going to reserve them slots, I think that's very honorable to say then you coordinate that portion that that's an even trade in my eyes. So you can set that expectation with them because then you guys have to deal with general public otherwise you need to do wildcat care at

155
00:58:07.440 --> 00:58:24.400
a different maybe earlier sessions or something manager would be able to there because it's going to be doing those two weeks typically only >> was a late notice to us that they weren't

156
00:58:24.400 --> 00:58:40.400
>> they had quite a debacle there but >> um and I do think that we need to explor are releasing the forms early, but then staying right on the farm is cash check only. And also, it's doesn't guarantee your spot. I You're right. I don't know how you

157
00:58:40.400 --> 00:58:56.880
would get around without having the numbers. >> Please have your cash in your check already pre-filled out. >> That's what they do for softball association, baseball association. Have your form ready. Have your cash ready. Show >> stick it in that window by her mailbox. You don't even got to talk to them. >> Well, you need to know that they meet

158
00:58:56.880 --> 00:59:12.799
their lot like because they might have triage. >> Yeah. There's certain things they might have to build once we get here, but >> there's opportunities there. >> But >> I think the Wildcat Pier is a big one of that, don't you? >> Yeah, that's >> that's probably one that kind of nipped us.

159
00:59:12.799 --> 00:59:29.440
>> Yeah, that's So they just said they didn't want to do it. Yeah, that's >> I think they're on their third director since December. >> 1976. >> Since December. >> That was a good one, Chris. That's all I got.

160
00:59:29.440 --> 00:59:46.000
>> All right. Anybody else got anything? >> All right. So, I got two things. Um, not that it really pertains to a building permit, but is there a reason there's an excavator on that street by the pool?

161
00:59:46.000 --> 01:00:02.359
>> They're um leveling, demolishing, get rid of, whatever the word is, taking out that trailer house and the garage >> on the corner. Oh yeah, >> they're taking the trailer house and >> school.

162
01:00:03.440 --> 01:00:18.720
>> So nothing else nothing >> turn to go to the pool right there. So nothing else can be built there >> it's only at this point it's just a demolition there's no >> what what I'm saying is based on the the zoning nothing else can be built there because the lot is too small

163
01:00:18.720 --> 01:00:33.040
>> from my understanding >> that's what we were discussing before that's the way there just keep that in mind that >> yep staff is well aware of that there isn't any we don't that's all we have is a demolition permit at this point and that's all the information

164
01:00:33.040 --> 01:00:50.400
>> are we worried about any speestous or I don't know how. Okay. >> I don't know the county the county >> they they approved the >> um also the uh the second thing is um so I was soon as I got back into town on

165
01:00:50.400 --> 01:01:09.599
Monday or yesterday um Mr. John Ramble approached me. Um, I think you know what I'm going to talk about because I know Joe talked, but the memorial over here, there was talk, I think, with you and Lisa and Joe about some sort of power to

166
01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:25.200
light the memorial. >> Joe Benda chair. So, John said that it was Joe Benda and the city administrator talked about the lighting of there's two lights that are

167
01:01:25.200 --> 01:01:42.079
underneath the memorial over here. Um, right now, currently the pole, this pole right here on the corner has power. >> Yeah. >> They need to take that power from that pole and move it to the one next to the memorial.

168
01:01:42.079 --> 01:01:58.160
>> Nope. um that there's a a junction box that is on this pole that needs to get moved to the other one. So, the city is not out any upfront money. It is simply John's paying Bend Electric to do all the

169
01:01:58.160 --> 01:02:14.640
moving of everything. Um but we were trying to get in contact with Excel Energy because it may end up being that light bill, that street light that the city pays for. Um I think it's fine. I think it's absolutely amazing that we

170
01:02:14.640 --> 01:02:30.960
can light that up like the Fourth of July has more interaction with that because it wasn't anything that it was I remembered the discussion. We can pull it off of that and it was like okay and then it went away. >> So it wasn't anything. Do you remember

171
01:02:30.960 --> 01:02:46.880
that? >> It's just he brought it up because Joe's gone and they're in the process of it again and the person we talked to with Excel Energy was like you're talking to the wrong dude. So anyway, I'm okay with it. They're all okay with it, but it's he said it's going to be like 50 cents a

172
01:02:46.880 --> 01:03:02.480
month or something like that or to add another light. I don't know what a light >> These are the bottoms of the flags, right? >> H >> there. So where the where the benches are, >> right? >> The flags are lit up already. No. >> Oh, they're not. >> So there is one that

173
01:03:02.480 --> 01:03:18.799
>> there is one light, but it's under I think >> or is it just the Anyway, I can't remember. But underneath the benches, he's putting two big huge >> LED lights, and that's going to light up >> everything, the eagle, everything. So, okay. >> Um, but anyway, just so you guys are

174
01:03:18.799 --> 01:03:34.079
aware that that's going to be coming down the pipe. Um, John is working that. John is paying for everything. If he cannot get all of this done, he's going to hire a company to bore drill from that light pole to his shop, which is

175
01:03:34.079 --> 01:03:50.640
the garage right here. and then he will again pay for all that all of that out of his own pocket. So, um I told him I don't see no reason why we can't continue moving forward. >> Absolutely. >> Made a motion or anything on that? >> No, not yet. I mean, it's

176
01:03:50.640 --> 01:04:06.240
>> we're noting anything. >> Yeah, it's literally going to be a street light. >> Yep. >> Oh, I'm sorry. I have one other comment I forgot to address, so I apologize. >> Um when we were talking about the garbage contract, we had asked them for a sample invoice. I haven't seen that. >> Did we get any responses on that?

177
01:04:06.240 --> 01:04:31.680
>> Did we get any responses? >> We received one response so far. >> And that was from >> LS. >> All I know is I want orange trash cans. >> Orange. >> Orange and blue. Denver Bronco.

178
01:04:31.680 --> 01:04:49.839
All right. Did >> not put that in the yard. >> That is not a requirement. >> What the heck? >> Don't worry. I got some of them them rims that I put on my trash can. >> We got a hardware store. >> Thank you. All right. Anybody else got

179
01:04:49.839 --> 01:05:04.640
anything else? >> Get a motion to adjurnn. I'll make a motion. Get a second. >> All in favor? >> Carried. one that
