motions of general business. First item of the night in the motion general business call resume presentation of the budget. Andrew is going to tell us about it. It's quite a deal. Me and Jeremiah sat through it. There's a lot of lights and
flashy stuff and it's it's a pretty good show. So Andrew, it's all yours. Can't work. We can't go to this file. We can't do it. We're going to uh thank tonight. Uh I am Andrew with
Con Resnick and we are contracting form the audit for the city of Steuartville for the year ended December 31st, 2025. Uh tonight we'll walk through this PowerPoint, the actual financial statements. Um our draft form still um we are uh all the numbers that we talk
about tonight are final numbers. Uh there's just a transmitter letter that we received earlier this week that we have to get into the financial statement. So any of the numbers that we discussed tonight are final numbers, but the actual just audited financial statement is not finalized yet. Uh which we'll get uh to you guys here shortly
once we get everything finalized, but there will be no changes to numbers or anything that we discuss tonight as we go through that. So our audit opinion will be a clean unmodified opinion, which means we believe everything is fairly stated in accordance with GAP. It is the highest level assurance you can receive on the financial statement. Our
audit opinion provides reasonable non-absolute assurance that the financials are free from material misstatement as we do not look at every single transaction that occurred throughout the year. We take a risk based approach and make selections based off those perceived risk. With that said, anything that we did uh request for supporting documentation was
provided to us by the city. So the city's accounting records were in good standing throughout the year. Um we are independent from the city and we did review as Mr. Mayor did say on April 20th and went through the actual audited audited financial statement in more line
by line detail. Um tonight we get have the highlights of that meeting and we put it into this PowerPoint. Also part of our audit there's a about seven different areas of testing that we have to do for municipal legal compliance. um making sure there's adequate collateral
for public funds, making sure the public indebtedness, all those rules are followed, your tiffs are in compliance. Uh any of our testing, we did note any uh compliance issues with that. There is no single audit required for 2025. Uh that just means if the city expends more
than $750,000 in federal awards, there's a separate audit that is going with that. Just a side note, that's going up to a million dollars next year. I don't know if you guys are applying for any federal grants, but that is going up. uh the threshold is increasing in 2026.
Um and then the GFOA certificate uh the city was awarded the GFO GFOA certificate of excellence in financial reporting uh for the 2024 financial statement. Uh that was the 18th consecutive year that the city has been awarded that uh prestigious award. Um
and then again we will apply for that in 2025. Um there are four major uh fund types, governmental fund types that the city does have. The main operations of the city is in the general fund. Uh six special revenue funds there. Uh three
types of debt service funds and two capital project funds. Uh the city capital project funds. Uh there's over 30 different capital projects that combined into one column for financial statements. Uh so next we look at your tax capacity for the city. Um so 10 years worth of
information presented there. So C next tax capacity of 7,48 almost double what it was 10 years ago at 3,79. So the city has been growing over the years last uh 10 years
I said almost doubled up a little over 300 or 3 million 3.7 million over that time frame. Um so when we actually look at your next slide there which is your property tax collections um it pretty much kind of follows that same tax
capacity. You guys have kind of stayed in that same general range of where your pres total property tax collections are compared to your total tax base. Uh total property tax collections of 5,122,000 uh or about 54% of the total
governmental revenues coming in. prior year was about 52%. So the city is continuing to get a little bit more on property taxes to fund operations as uh the state funding sources that we'll look at in a second are not continuing to keep pace with that. So that's about
332,000 or about 7%. Um I said pretty much mimics the increase in your tax capacity as well. Then we have your tax increment revenue. So there is a couple active tiff districts with Helcon and Geotech
collections on both of them in the current year. There was an increase in the current year uh increase in the geotech portion up to about 135,000 that was collected in tiff revenue. Another main funding source for the city
is the local government aid or LGA. Uh represents about 14% of the total uh governmental revenues that are coming in. It was 14% in 2024. So that percentage stayed the same. Uh about a,317,000
coming in increase of a whopping $2,000. And then in 2026, you are getting 3,000 more. So again, not a large increase in 2026 to fund operations. So pretty consistent. We did see a larger increase in 2024
about 200,000 from the prior year. uh but then those other increases have not uh maintained uh with the increase in property taxes. Next we look at the all sources of governmental fund revenues coming in there. So total governmental revenues
9,488,000 of about 350,000 from the prior year. Uh you can see the purple up there is your largest funding source which is your property taxes. That was up at 332,000. So that is the main increase in your revenues for the current year. The
orange is your LGA uh remained relatively flat. The red is your investment income. So investment income was down about 96,000. Uh just interest rates were more favorable in prior years. Your cash balances overall were still in very good position and up from
the prior year. Uh the blue is the charges for service which remain relatively consistent as well. Um so if you look back in 2016 there you can see those lines were much closer. the purple and orange uh were not separated by what
they are now. So your LGA over those years have increased about uh 300 400,000 and your property taxes has had to go up about uh 3 million. So just not that same increase over that time and that gap's widely become more reliant on
the citizens or taxpayers to uh provide operations for the city and for those services. That gets us into our expenditures. Then starting with your general government expenditures. So this is going to be the mayor and council administration. Um so municipal buildings
um total about uh 1,53,000 down about 13,000 operating expenditures throughout the year. Uh just under 24% of the total governmental expenditures when you exclude uh any major capital and service. uh the majority of that
decrease was due to some engineering uh services that was charged in the prior year. Um so overall expenditure is pretty consistent in the general government area. Public safety um main expenditures in public safety is
going to be the law enforcement contract, fire protection and street lighting. Total expenditure is about a,389,000 up about 18,000 from the prior year. Uh so there was an increase in the law enforcement contract of about 26,000 but
uh again pretty consistent year-over-year. Uh 31 a.5% of the total governmental expenditures which was the same in the prior year. So as we go through there that'll be a pretty common theme with these main categories is your expenditures were able to be maintained at a pretty consistent level
year-over-year. Next slide, we break about those public safety expenditures a little bit more with law enforcement in the first grouping, fire protection of firsts in the second group, and street lighting in the third. Um, so we can see a little increase in law enforcement contract up
26,000 at 886,000. Uh, fire protection up slightly about 8,000, but pretty consistent there. Uh, fire protection costs were funded through property tax collections of 165,000, which is up 20,000. fire or
excuse me township contracts of about 118,000 and on state fire aid which has passed through from the state ended the fire relief of about 12,000 public works then um we did see a decrease in public works of about 158,000 throughout the year represents
just over 10% of the governmental expenditures uh more of the decrease is really just uh street uh maintenance street patching seal coating more of that was Cracker bears more done in 24 than in 25.
That gets us library expenditures just under 10% of the total uh governmental expenditures that about 436,000 up about 33,000 from the prior year. Uh most of that increase was related to salaries are up about 20,000 about 5,000
related to payroll tax related and then some more ebooks purchased in the current year. Uh library expenditures are funded through property taxes of 411,000 which was up 35,000 from the prior year and then the county contribution of about 66,000 up 7,000
from the prior year. Recreation expenditures then this is a civic center, swimming pool, summer programs, adult rec grounds, parks and historical society. Uh expenditures totaled a million 25,000 up about
250,000 from the prior year. Um but you can see the top there is going to be all capital related of that increase. Your operating expenditures in the blue there was up about 23,000 mostly due to some salary and wages. Uh the capital outlay in this area is related to the pool
project roof and HVAC. Park and rack. Again we want to compare some revenues that are coming in versus expenditures. So first column there is going to be any direct revenues that are coming in. So the park brings in about 18,000 worth of revenues has operating expenditures of about 400,000
capital of about 16,000 operating expenditures in the park ra about 10,000. Uh the pool brings in just under 200,000 in revenue. Operating expenditures of 281,000 up about 6,000 from the prior year and the adult
softball is pretty much you see the pool project in the blue there above the pool. um as I started that project economic development. So this is revolving loans, tiff expenditures and professional services. Uh so the major
categories there we break out into uh three different areas there. So in 2024 was the first year that it was brought in house. So that was salaries and benefits of about 100,000. Uh switching over from Ceda contract. Uh the new one here, the larger expenditure was the new
EDA programs uh education spent about 103,000 in EDA payments and then the tiff payments were up as well as we did see an increase in the tip revenue that we passed through coming through there. This also includes about 22,000 of tax abatements that uh will be uh pass or
tax abayments that go back to those different entities. general fund uh governmental expenditures going across all those funds spent 4,46,000 up about 56,000 from the prior year. So this excludes capital outlay. So again
pretty consistent year-over-year $4.5 million budget pretty much up 50,000 pretty minimal increases over the year. We look at general fund budget to actual the blue is going to be your budgeted expenditures. of goals is your actual
expenditures. Um so total general fund expenditures were under budget by about 126,000 for the year. Uh so general government was under budget about 28,000 mostly in employee cost. Uh public safety was over budget 73,000 but the
city did not budget does not budget for the fire relief pass through which was 104,000. So without that revenue and expenditure coming in would have been under budget about uh 30,000. So, uh, public works under budget 200,000 due to street maintenance and repairs. And then
the recreation over budget 28,000. Again, a lot of that is related to the pool of 108,000. So, would have been under budget about 80,000 about that pool of projects. So, all categories really under budget excluding capital outlay. Um, general fund revenues are also over budget about 185,000. So, the
city did about 312,000 better uh than budget for uh transfers. There are six or five other funds then that do have budget to actuals. Uh revolving loan fund and the first one was uh no loan expenditures. So no
expenditures going out. Our library was under budget about 45,000 related to capital and books. Volunteer fire and first responders under budget 45,000 or 40,000. Civic center over budget
about 111,000. 9,000 the rough and hra project that went through there and then the EDA over budget 58,000 obvious beautifification program got more attention than expected
fund reserves then so general fund reserves in the green is going to be your unassigned and committed fund balance um so the unassigned was up 114,000 a million26 the committed fund balance of a,28,000 so your total unassigned committed fund balance was up
about 117,000. Your ex expenditures were down about 13,000 in your general fund. Um so pretty consistent there at three just under 3.5 million. Uh so we did increase that percentage to 64%. One metric that is used to determine the health of the
city fund balances. You take your unassigned and committed fund balance and divide it by your uh total expenditures. You get a percentage of how much of your reser reserves are on hand. you're at about 64% increasing that uh 4% back to where you were in 23. So the city is in a healthy position. Uh
the state auditor recommendation is uh 30 uh 35 to 50%. Uh we kind of feel that's a bit low just because your main funding sources we talked about as property taxes and LGA really come in twice a year. So that's that 50% kind of benchmark that you need to use to fund
operations during those six months. the library fund uh total uh property tax is coming in to fund the library there at 411,000 total fund balance for the library
including the restricted portion for our trust of 550,000 up 45,000 so back in 2022 um you see the increase that was the 200,000 of the American ARPA funds
American rescue plan act funds um that will still need to be transferred over to that CIP project at some point that's still sitting in the library funds that will were used to help with that new expansion project. Civic center fund uh total fund balance
decreased by about 52,000 for the year. Uh there was funded through property taxes of 53,000 and some reimbursements for some charges that are for those improvements of about 64,000. Total expenditures were up 118,000 due to the
road H track project sitting in about $8,500. So we did use the majority of that fund balance, but we did a lot of improvements over there as well. Fire and first responders fund uh building uh in anticipation of equipment
needs. They did increase by about 45,000 uh their fund balance up to 25,000 for the year. um increases for increase in property taxes, state aids and township contracts all have additional revenues coming in.
Revolving loan fund um so the revolving loan fund has a total uh fund balance 434,000 up 62,000 from the prior year. Total loans outstanding about 41,000. So we did see that increase in the 62. Uh most of that is due to there was a
prepayment um from the Anytime Fitness. They paid off their loan of about 36,000 in the year and then we did close the retail revolving loan fund into the revolving loan fund. So now there's just one revolving loan fund of 15,000. Um so that is the main increase in the fund
balance. Economic development fund total property hit tax collections of 191,000 total fund balance for the economic development of about 262,000. Uh so we did use about 52,000 of the
fund balance as we did mention that the program uh did more than expected in the current year. So we did use a little bit but they are still in a healthy position there. It's sitting at 262,000 capital project funds. Um so we do break out in the purple there. the library
capital project back in 2023. So library capital projects has about 1.8 million. Uh the green there the other capital projects funds there's about just under 2.5 million. So a total of about 4.3 million of fund balance is set aside for
future projects. Um most of those are set aside for future street projects of about 1.1 million 590,000 for parks 513,000 for capital. The major capital improvements for the year were the 2025 street project finishing the 2024 street
project. Uh library CIP spent about 250,000 on engineering legacy drive street project truck street sweeper and then the library capital project funds as I mentioned as a million 829,000
that's up 654,000 from the prior year. revenues going in there are property taxes of about 134,000, interest earnings of about 482,000, and then donations of about 280,000. So, a little less in property taxes in the prior year, a little less in interest
earnings as the interest earnings were down a little bit, and then donations were up as we were able to get some additional grants and donations coming in. So, spent about 242,000 on engineering and design cost. That gets us into the debt service fund.
So, special assessment bonds, there's three current special assessment bonds that are outstanding. Uh, 2016's paid off in 2026. 2017's paid out in 27 and 2019 is paid off in 2030. Um, so 10 years ago in 2016, you had about 4
million of debt outstanding. We currently have about 500,000 of debt outstanding. So, uh, the city's come a long way of being able to build reserves and fund projects, uh, through reserves and fund balance, but they've not needed to continue to bond every year for the
projects as they had in the past. So, the city um has significantly decreased their uh, debt outstanding year over year. General obligation bonds, there's three of those that are outstanding. The swimming pools paid off in 2026 the 2028
tax abatements paid off in 2038 and the refunding bonds paid off in 2033. So all those payments are being made timely. General obligation utility bonds. Uh so we paid off the 2016 a water and sewer
portion in 25. So there's no future obligations related to that. And then the 2019 AS are paid off in 2030. The nursing home bonds also paid off in 2026. Um, there's a capital lease outstanding for the fire truck that'll be paid off
in 2026 as well. So, the 5-year debt service, I mentioned quite a few of those are being paid off in 2026. So, about 970,000 of uh debt service principal and interest required in 2026 and then that drops to about 280,000
uh for the next four years. So net pension liability again since the city does participate in PUR which is a multi-mployer pension plan that is underfunded anybody that pays into that plan has to record their share of that underfunding it is not a true it is a
liability but it's not a liability that you can pay off 607,000 um is actuator actuar determined and we adjust to the numbers that the actuator does provide to us same thing that pension asset so this is opposite way. So, the fire relief has an overfunding
of about 710,000. Um, so again, not really a true asset of the city, but if the fire relief does go away, that money does technically come back to you, which I don't foresee happening, but it is recorded as an asset once.
That gets us into enterprise funds, your operationals, uh, for your utilities. For the water fund, we have the revenues in the green, expenditures in the orange, uh any other nonoperate income and expenses in the blue, and then net income before transfers in the purple. So, water rates did not change in 2025.
Water revenues were up about 42,000. Uh 32,000 of that is related to the water availability charge and the wack charge. Um sewer or excuse me, water expenses were down about $1,300. So, pretty consistent operationally. additional
revenues coming in of about 32,000. So the city did do water city's water fund did add about 337,000 to their fund balance and they transferred 81,000 to the fund. So they pay uh the water fund balance sheet then the
green is the cash, the orange is the debt outstanding. Um so total cash just over 4.3 million up about 125,000. some positive operations. Um cash would have been up more, but this did do a significant investment in the water
meters as they spent about 318,000 in cash that was paid for. Um so without that would have increased your cash for 450,000 through operations for the year and they did pay off one of those bonds. So your debt obligations are going to be
less going forward in the water. Sewer fund operations did have a small rate increase in the year again, but the majority of that increase was relief to the sewer availability charge coming in. Sewer expenses were up about 216,000 due
to salaries, benefit, operators wise, and some additional repairs and maintenance and utilities. Um, but they did still have positive operations including depreciation of about 230 or 223,000 for the year. Um, so still positive for
the sewer fund. Um when we look at their cash position in the green, um they did use a little bit of cash, but they have about 1.4 million in cash down about 57,000. Um they did spend about 400,000 on capital improvements with a portion of
the meters and then also the wastewater treatment house pump improvements. And then the storm water uh balance sheet their their cash about a million 369,000 up 131,000 for the pri from the
prior year u continues to build reserves for future gains for the storm water. And then the brief summary there the general fund assigned and committed fund balance of 2 million 235,000 represents about 64% of the general fund expenditures for the year if the city is
in the housing position. uh general tax levy represents about 54% of the total revenue while LG contributes 14% of the governmental revenue. Fire department has reserves of 25,000 um included in the capital project fund balance is 513,000 for fire capital needs. Uh
revolving loan fund has about 40,000 outstanding and 434,000 available for EDA loans. City capital project funds of 4.3 million including the fire capital and library edition of about 1.8 but still about 2.4 available for future uh
projects that are needed. Um water sewer or and storm water funds are all generate sufficient cash flow and then the city did maintain accurate records uh for the city's funds and had adequate supporting documentation for all transaction transactions tested during
the audit. Any questions comments? something to go back to. >> Outstanding job again, Andrew. >> City did a great job through the transition. Really helpful throughout
the bill. We appreciate all you guys' help uh going through the audit um for the first full year of being here. We appreciate everything that he did. >> Thank you. Thank you. Thank the company. Thank the staff. We're all done a great job again this year.
Any questions for the table? Oh, Bill's got a question. >> Yeah, just a thank you because during the year we have questions that come up uh either on a little item here or a bigger item there and their staff is always quick to respond and I respond and then help us out or help us work
together through it. So, it's always appreciative. So, thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thanks, Andrew. Thank you. >> All right. That'll take us to the next item which is amending 2025-y
display policy. All right, we already did the first reading last meeting. Find an ordinance amendment to ordinance 2025, an ordinance establishing a flag display policy for city- owned property and infrastructure.
First reading of the ordinance was held at the April 14th meeting. So the council action I consider be to adopt ordinance 2026-1 ordinance amending ordinance 2025-1 establishing flags play policy you want me to read through the
policy questions discussion >> you can just point out what the one sentence changes the second one >> where we So the city's der
>> policy the second the line that we're changing >> that's just that second solid >> the current the line that will be changed in here will be the current or historic flag of the state of Minnesota that is the line that will be changed in the previous ordinance
>> that will be changed to this >> this will be changed to the current or historic flag of the state of Minnesota that's the amendment change that one questions or discussion? >> Yeah, I I still don't think we should be changing the uh the ordinance that we
just wrote. And uh when when was this approved? October last year. You got anything? Well, um, like I always tell people, if you have issues, call your local repres
representative. We can't call our local representative because our local representatives never got to vote on this. 13 people in the state of Minnesota decided this for everybody. I'm for changing it. It was It was not
done fairly. It was not done right. If it was uh if our local representatives vote on it, it's one thing. If the state of Minnesota, if the citizens vote on it, it's not a thing. 13 people decided it's not right. >> We've had we've had we've had one
complaint, one person out of everyone in the circle where the two flags are is the fire department and the park. You need to go ask, you need to go >> what? Veterans Park. And again, I don't
know if you talked to anyone on the fire department or any of the veterans where they're just Once you do that, you'll understand. >> Yeah, they are in for it. >> But when we passed this ordinance, what was the official state leg of Minnesota? >> It was the one that we're voting now
where we we're that wants to be changed back to the historic. We already knew what the official flag was and we passed the ordinance. So, in my mind, we already knew what that was. So, why are we going back and changing it now?
You have the choice of which flag you want to fly on there. You can fly the official or >> Yeah, but we're changing the wording though. Like we we originally set this ordinance up so we'd have a policy when like the flags are lower at half stand,
right? So we're flying the official US flag, the official Minnesota state flag, and then the official flags in US Army and armed forces and all those branches. We're kind of in a way following the state stat. State statute doesn't force
counties, cities, municipalities to fly that flag. >> No, they give us our choice. So, we're just giving this gives us council gives any council that comes in afterwards. It gives anyone here at this table the choice of what they want to do. >> Yeah. But >> it's all about choices.
>> And I and I understand that, but we also knew what the state flag was, what the official flight was, and we passed it. So why didn't we change it then? Because I feel if we do this, we're going to open up a can of worms on all the other ordinances that we have in
place. Like we've got the chicken one. They can have three chickens, right? What if someone wants six? Are they going to come in and and then we vote on six? >> No. And and you can. That's fine. But I'm just saying like we're going to
No, I I don't expect you to. But >> correct. >> Anybody can question any policy that we have. So, could we end up voting on chickens again? We might. Never know. This is not a hill I'm going to die on. So, I don't have a whole lot of opinion
on it. >> You're really not done or they're on the either. Well, I just people have asked the majority have wanted wanted it like this, >> right?
>> Um, but again, I didn't do any official survey. I didn't, you know, like I said, I just haven't not put a lot into it. >> Well, we got a motion one way or the other. I'll make a motion to to uh
change it to what it says now to amend the ordinance establishing the flag the flag sway policy. Do we have a second? Do we have a second? I'll second it.
All in favor say I. >> I. I opposed. >> I do. >> 32. >> Jeremiah voting to >> Yep. >> Jeremiah and Josh.
All right. Ordinance amendment number two, chapter 2. The dash. Please find an enormous amendment to chapter 2 administration and operations. The first reading of the ordinance amendment was held April 14th
meeting. The amendment changes how mayor and council salaries are paid. Currently we pay quarterly but according to Minnesota state statute section 181.101. They are to be paid monthly. So the council action requested consideration to adopt ordinance 2026-2

>> Opposed. That'll carry. >> Website Air Branding Company. City staff has reviewed a a request from Air Branding Company for a $2,000 project fee adjustment following the successful launch of the city of
Sterville's new website. The original contract for the project was approved in the amount of 8,000. Throughout this whole development process, the scope and complexity of the website expanded far beyond initial expectations. additional time, additional content development,
revisions, strategic implementation. These were all required to ensure the final product met the city's needs and expectations. City staff work closely with their branding company during the duration of the project and supports the request based on the level of effort and additional work completed to deliver
this high quality final product. If approved, the total project cost would increase from 8,000 to 10,000 and an updated contract will be executed to reflect thei revised amount. A letter from hair branding company outline the request is attached for your reference.
I'm sure you've looked at it, read through it. So, council action requested would be to approve an additional $2,000 payment to landing company for the city of Sturville website project and authorize execution of an updated contract for the
total project cost of $10,000. Questions or discussion? >> What changed for the $2,000 >> once they got into some of the backgrounds of some of the parts of it, it was >> Don't they do that stuff? Don't they do the research before they take it on? I was just like
>> they didn't have access to women to the website and so um because we were doing a number of the changes our loan ourselves instead of having the the original website designer do them you know to save money. Um it it was just a
disaster. So it was a lot more complicated. >> And this came in just under um just a little over half of what our last redo was. years ago we had that happen South Dakota it seemed like it was 25,000 or
something like that I believe yeah so for a complete redo I guess you could say technology is helped at the cost >> is she going to continue to support it >> yeah she's very good with that um there's a minimal fee of like a hundred
some dollars a month um she is like Cassandra and Andrew can both make changes, but if it's any if they're gone, then any of us can send her an email and it'll be updated right away. So >> So we it's a reoccurring $100 a month or
>> Yeah, that's a every company >> subscription fee. >> Our old company wasn't even responding to us the last year. So it just got to be >> uh Chamber of Commerce just um our Steuartville Chamber just recently redid
their website and they utilized um these same services. So, we had a chance to see some of the improvements they were able to make, too. >> Any other questions or discussion? Hearing none. Do we have a motion?
Like a motion to approve it. >> Do we have a second? >> Second. >> We got it all over. We'll give it to Jeremiah. >> All right. All in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed. That'll carry. 2026 sidewalk
project consideration of sidewalk bids. Uh for the 2026, excuse me, I think I said 25, but 2026 sidewalk removal and replace project. The city is removing and replacing sidewalks in the Country View Estate subdivision, which includes 7th Avenue Southeast, Bonner Court
Southeast, the Point Drive Southeast, Country Estates Court Southeast, and has an alternate Tower Court Southeast. The this also includes a sidewalk connection from the point drive southeast to county road 106 southeast.
It is a,200 square ft of concrete for the removal and replace and 640 square ft for the connection. City received the following bids. We're allowing the bids to be made in two separate as two separate projects are combined.
The first option was to remove and replace the concrete sidewalk. Option two was a concrete grinding and option three was for both options one and two combined. So as you can see we've got four five bids there.
Some for grinding only some for sidewalk and grinding. Any low bidder was Nas concrete in construction on this project. However, they did not include concrete grinding investment. So we are recommending Clark concrete as they had
the lowest bid for the that part of the project. So are you recommending Clark Clark concrete to do the whole project? >> Just the grinding. >> They'll come and do just the grinding for that price. >> Yeah.
>> Without getting the rest of it. >> Okay. >> Wow. >> All right. Do you all understand that? >> Yeah. That was that was my question, too. So, >> well, it's not too much different than the chips going and cracking, which will be next.
>> Okay. >> Okay. >> I I just I I just question it because I can't believe it comes down without getting the whole pro. You know what I'm saying? >> I'm talking. >> Where's it? >> Where's Nas from? >> Naz or Garrett Naz. >> Oh, okay.
>> From town here. >> All right. He's a fireman in Rochester and he does that on the side >> and he has the manpower to do it. >> Okay. >> He's a strong kid. >> So will be to approve or deny low vendor N concrete construction and complete the
sidewalk removal and replacing the country and replacing the country state subdivision and for Clark concrete to complete the grinding the concrete grinding. >> We have a motion to approve. >> What do you approve it?
I'll move to approve concrete and Clark. >> All right, we have a motion. Do we have a second? >> Second. >> We have a second. All in favor say I. I >> oppose. That'll carry. 2026
chip seal and crack filling project street maint. Okay. city advertised and solicited bids for the 2026 chip seal fog seal and crack filling project. The streets involved in this year's project include the 2020 and the
2021 CIP projects. The down under parking lot, the subway parking lot, city hall's east alley. These bids also include the care center top and bottom parking lots that will be reimbursed to the city. The following bids were
received. Chip seal fog seal and brothers $223 a square yard forer asphalt 259 a square yard 446 a square yard fill foreigner asphalt 385 a pound
515 a pound and bargain 949 a pound. These funds were designated for the project included in the 2026 budget. So the council actually requested us to award a chip ceiling fog ceiling contract to low bidder Pearson brothers
for 70,000 award a crack filling contract to low bidder farer asphalt and I want to point out so you guys remember this is the first year we are trying this fog what is a fog >> so they put the chips down and then they'll come back in 3 weeks later and
put that layer of oil over the top of the chips so the chips don't get all pulled up and stuff like that So, we've talked about it in the past and I know we mentioned it at previous. We were going to try it this year for the first time and see what we thought. >> All right,
that's understood. So, do we have a motion on that? >> I'll make the motion to award the chip ceiling and the crack >> to the biders as presented here. Yes, the Pierce Brothers and Fer has. >> All right, second.
>> Got a second. Any other questions or discussion? >> All in favor say I. >> I. >> Oppos? That carries. >> Rolling Ridge Park consideration of pavilion design bids. Park board asked Shawn to give pricing
on G design plans for the Rolling Ridge Park bathroom shelter. The park board has voted to recommend Nicole Pearson for council approval. The city received two bids. Arman architect for 195, Nicole Pearson for 3,000.
Staff is recommending going with Lois Bidter Nicole Pearson Associates on this project. Now, this is just architectural work. Is that over? >> This is to get plans put together for uh permit approval and for bidding uh to
complete the project. I think the reason there's the big difference there is when I talked to both these people, I tried a third one. I never got a response from them. When I talked to both these guys, I sent them plans of our current bathroom and I talked to the county inspector and he said that the plans we have there's been in this code section
there's never there hasn't been change in any of the codes in this time frame. So, we should be able to just use our existing plans. So I sent it to both these guys and sent the existing plans and said we just want to add a 26x 26 shelter off the back side of it just a
roof like we have in the other parts. Uh now because we had to go to an engineer because that's not already part of it and if it's going to be a part of it attached to it then we have to have architecture done uh in order to go forward with that. So we presented to both people that way and I don't know if
he did it as just starting from scratch but he was informed the exact same as she was uh on what I was asking and I had given him the results and explained everything to him and uh he was very happy that I shared everything with him and whatnot.
>> All right. All right. Any other questions or discussion? >> Hearing none. Do I have a motion? I'll make a motion to approve. >> Neil Nicole Pearson. >> Yes. >> We have a motion to approve approve
Nicole Pearson Associates. Do we have a second? >> Second. >> All in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed? That carries. >> Highway 30 project consideration of lighting. As the council directed, the city has received the information for the possible remaining lights to be
installed in the business section of Highway 30 First Street, which is outlined on the two attached pages. First page shows possible layout, which can now be accomplished with six lights instead of 10 and meet the DOT requirements. Please also note that this
fixture was the closest we could find that was near an acorn gold. has now the new requirement from state federal project. There can be no light shining above the fixture. The second page shows a cost if all lights and poles were new and if new lights were put in the
existing hole the city has. The middle paragraph explains the more common item that may need a repair which is the driver and the fixture that lights the actual LED unit. Mindot has informed staff that aesthetic portion
of their overall budget could cover the initial cost of installation of six lights, but then all future maintenance and/or replacement will be upon the city. This calculates to an estimated cost of lighting fixture replacement to
be approximately $4,800 and an estimate cost of lighting and pole replacement to be approximately 7,700 per pole per light. The city can still reinstall any lights that are originals in this business
section, but they must be put adjacent to private on the private property and all costs will be the cities or shared with the adjacent property owner if they so desire. If that last paragraph were desired by the city council, the
aesthetic Minnesota DOT funds could then be used for other possible amenities such as ben benches or planters or something else we could put on the street. So council action request consider the
lighting plans. So these 10 poles would cost us 91,000. Is that what you're saying? 10 holes of light. >> Six holes. >> They're cutting it down from 10 to six. >> Yeah. >> Because these new lights emit the light down. So, we need to meet the looms to
the center of the road. And because of that, we can scale the number of light poles down. >> And then the no shining above is to save the furry bat or whatever it was. >> Longear northern bat. >> And that's a new federal environmental. >> All our other lights out here. We got
rid of all them bats yet or >> Yeah. Whenever the rule came in, it's just any new projects that are going to utilize the state or federal funding, basically federal funding, >> has to abide by those. >> So, if we go with none of these new lights, take our old
lights, set them back a little bit behind sidewalks, which I assume that's what we'd have to do, >> would they then the Cobras, they would do all the lighting? The the the DOT would take care of all lighting we have.
>> Yeah. What would our cost be then? >> None. But they've determined to meet their requirements. They will pay fair pay for it with their lighting schematic, if you will. If if they go cobra heads at intersections, you do not
have to have a constant light. If you put decorative lighting in, then you have to have a constant lumen at the center point so people aren't driving in and out. >> Oh, I see. I see. Coming in. >> Doesn't make sense because that's what you're doing if you got cobraheads. But that's the state regulation on their
road. So that's kind of like the same after they put the trees in on a sunny day, you come in and out of shade. You come in a bright light, you come in shade. >> I I will throw in there just you guys are aware of like when it comes to the maintenance of these, uh I don't care
which way you go on this. I just want you guys to be fully informed, but like we have bulbs going all the time. It's $50 a bulb now. uh the the drivers are part of the bulbs, so you replace the whole thing. Uh what he's saying is the
driver is $200 to $400 for a driver now. So instead of a bulb replacing for $50, it's $200 to $400 to fix the light at this point. And if the if it's not the driver, if it's part of the fixture, it's the full $3,000 you're paying for this. So what if the pole gets hit?
>> Well, insurance covers it, great. But if it doesn't, you know, if there's no insurance, our insurance will pick it up. Oh, at that point >> with our deductible $1,000, >> but it's what each pole now is what >> the complete life 7,700 bucks now. I
mean, if we go with this, correct? >> Say that again. >> A pole with the light is 7,700. Correct. So, someone wipes a pole out, you're going to spend 7,700 to replace it plus electrician.
So the question you're asking us, do we want to do it at all or do we want to >> Yeah. just hold off for now. Maybe come up with a plan for us three businesses here and then kind of go it on our own. >> So they're only even if we go with this,
they're only going to allow us six lights from here design. Is that what you're saying? >> Well, that's all we would need. >> Yeah. We could put up the 10 like we talked about, but to meet their requirements, we could do it with the six. >> I wouldn't think you'd want to spend
>> what the state's going to pay for the first six. >> Correct. >> It would come out of that fund. >> Yeah. >> State's going to pay for these six. >> One thing I was wondering is what happens when we do Main Street? You do you have money to do all of Main Street
with those same lights down the road? >> Is that a little over a million? >> Yeah. Dylan did some quick. estimating and he figured it'd come over to a million dollars if we replace the 73 lights >> if you put these in. >> And then if 10 years from now we got to
put new lights up there, do you have six sitting there by themselves that you mean or you decide not to do or do you spend that much? That's your guys's decision to make because we can keep the old ones just settled back, right? We can >> we can't use the old ones on Main Street. >> No, no, here.
>> Oh, yeah. We could do anything we want and we don't have to meet the st. get it on our property. We do not have to meet the state guidelines of not because we're not that they're going to have their cobraheads getting their and we're only on our property and they can't trust that property.
>> We don't got to put them on anybody's property but our home. If you want lights, we'll give them the lights, the old lights, if they want to put them on their property. Well, myself, I'd rather let the state light it and we put our decorative ones out front here if we want decorative ones
that we offer. If the bank wants a couple decorative ones or whatever, you're only going to have six lights out here anyhow. I mean, scattered up and down through here. Yeah, cuz if we had originally been allowed to reinstall these, then the bank and the Chinese property, restaurant property would have
been given those as well. So, that's a great offer to offer. >> You think they're left? >> Oh, I Yeah, let them pay for it and let's just reuse ours just, you know, for the decoration. >> We talked about uses for ours could be
like Georgetown Trail, right? >> Uh we could lay some along there. We extra bolts for that. Uh the reason we can't use these on Main Street is because these uh lights on here do not have the electrical outlets on the top that we plug the holiday decorations and stuff like that. So, we would not be able to use them on Main Street. That's
the only difference. What do you think, Craig? Let the state pay for it. >> What do you think, Brent? >> I'd rather stick to have the state pay for these six, but you think, Josh? >> Yeah, I think the state huh the state will pay for those six. setting. That's
what we do. >> So, when it comes What the question is though, when it comes time to match these on Main Street, which the day will come, they'll change it for the furry bat or the long-eared rat or something running down the street. >> So, then you're going to have to come up
with the million to do that. >> Well, they would have some funding for that too, right? >> Not if they just tell us we got to change them. >> We don't we can't predict. >> Well, that's to do it. The only reason it's funding now is because it's part of a project, >> right? If our light bulbs are shot in 10 years and we have to do something with
it and it's they don't have a project going, uh, that's not anything guaranteeing that we would. And I'm not saying this stuff to influence you guys. It's just >> I mean, we pay for a lot of this stuff anyway. I mean, when car hits it, takes off, we pay for the pull anyway. So, we
can start changing out now slowly and surely. >> You want a motion on this, Bill, Cheryl? >> Yeah. because we got to get back to the engineers of the morning. >> Where are we? >> If the state didn't spend the 90,000 on those six lights, then they said they'd
offer like planters and benches, would that I don't think that would be a Would that be a better option? >> We already have a question. >> Oh, yeah. So, if you don't use that money for the lights, these six lights, they said they'd allow it if you can
come up like we've had planters. So if we have new planters or replace existing ones, that money can go for that. Or if we wanted additional benches in any of this area, and those are just two examples. If you all have some ideas, then we'd run that by them for
>> I'll make a motion that we let the state do the overhead cobras. If we want some decorative ones, we keep a couple put them out front. We have a second. I'll >> second. >> So what's your motion? state comes in, does their cobras go
here and here and there. And if we want to light up the front of city hall, we keep a couple of our old ones and put them in our out in our property ourselves. That's my motion. That's it. The 91,000 can be spent somewhere else.
We have a second Jeremiah. All in favor say I. >> I. I. >> Opposed? carries. All right. Now on to the civic center. Stirville Civic Center finance committee has reviewed the status of the civic
center following discussions regarding potential sale of the facility. While the property was previously listed for sale and market interest has been received, including the strong offer, committee evaluate the long-term financial and community implications of a potential sale versus continued
ownership. After review, the finance committee is recommending that the city retain ownership of the civic center. The committee determine that maintaining the facility as a city asset provides greater long-term value, supports community programming and public use, and aligns with broader community and
operational priorities. Based on this recommendation, the committee further advises that the port sale signings be removed and the property be taken off the market. So the council action request on this is approve the finance committee's recommendation to retain civic center under city ownership and
remove for all for sale signage, withdraw the property from active sale status. questions, discussion, bill. >> Obviously, it gives you all or the city um future options if we need the space
for anything. Um obviously we'll I think always be open to some idea that comes across whether it's a fellow governmental office. Um, one of the things I approached the county administrator with, does the county have some branch offices that might fill a
need here that Southern Homestead County folks could use? Or if um we hear of other ideas, obviously those will still be brought forth to you. But for now, it'll allow us to to hold on to that. >> Questions or discussion?
>> We still have it set up for pickle ball. >> It is now All right. If there's no other questions or discussion or anything, uh, let me entertain a motion. >> I'll make the motion to approve the finance committee's recommendation.
>> Second. >> Second. >> Second. All in favor say I. >> I. >> Opposed. That also carries. That takes us out of general business. Takes us to mayor staff consult reports. Mayor's report tonight. See you. Yeah.
>> Uh, got a short report tonight. Sympathy to families of Robbie Menter, Tom Noble, and Todd Wolf. Don't forget Citywide garage sales are May 7th, 8th, and 9th at the check out
the star for that. And when is the citywide coming up? 16th. >> 16th and 20th. >> Okay. 16th and 20th. So that's coming right up too. Something to look forward to and keep reading the star and find out all that information. All right, administrators report.
>> Uh reports in your packet. Uh just want to add an extra thank you to uh public works uh fire department and county sheriff. Uh they helped out immensely with the tornado um kind of traffic control power line or
power outages. And then of course the tourists we dealt with up in the um uh neighborhood. And then just checking for life and limb around town. And then um a big thank you as well to those neighborhood uh citizens up there. Boy,
did they band together to help each other and uh tried to best they could to get folks back on track. So it was a great community effort. >> So I have a question on that. What What's the point of the what's County Emergency Management doing? Why weren't they down here helping?
>> Well, they were. >> Yeah, John and uh Nick, he's they're the uh they were coordinating everything and um they helped. I think they brought in one more uh law enforcement person here to help our two, but of course the biggest damage was in Marian Township
and that got hit far worse than we did. And so they uh devoted, you know, a fair share of their efforts there. >> And they they did contact us to see if we needed more help. Yeah. And we kind of told them we we had >> Well, we needed help out there for traffic control. And I asked that that deputy.
>> Really did. I was there. The fire department did it. >> No, when I went up there, there was two two >> I was up there. I asked the deputy. He told me he said he couldn't dedicate his time. So the fire department came and branded it. >> Well, at first they were checking for
life and limb situations of people's lives. >> Oh, just Yeah, I'm just asking. >> And then we did meet them here. We had to stop because all the uh life route and so traffic was coming through just unbelievable. It's weird. >> I'm sure they were prioritizing taking
the worst scenarios first. >> Yep. And then when we brought barricades up to the neighborhood, there there was a deputy up there along with our fire department, but they were checking things for power line protection and um natural gas, I
guess, was at least thought might be an issue. >> They were up there for a little bit. I know, but >> I was trying to call you and Bill. That's why I talked to >> I said he >> But did they leave because you guys were there and said you >> he drove right by He drove right by him and asked him. He didn't he he said he couldn't do it. And then if I did
branding, that's what I was trying to call you and Bill. >> Well, that might have been a deputy, but not the emergency management. >> No, that's that was my whole point. I thought emergency management should have a deputy up there. >> Yeah, both Travis and John called within hour or so. What do you need? Do you
need extra? Cuz they were going to even free up uh Homestead County Public Works to help us if we would have needed that kind of help. Do you want to see in your report you want to touch on this display out front the tough point stone display for the
guys? >> Oh yeah. Um as you know first time since 1937 that the building is um under are going to undergo some preservation requirements. As you all know, this is a gemstone of the community and the
community's been proud of it. Um, it's been durable all these years, but it's come to the point where the grout is really starting to eat away. And so, of course, as we budgeted for, um, a redo of all of that. And now, um, the
contractor came in and said, "Believe it or not, they'll be starting tomorrow." Um, and so this front side is probably going to be deadlined for a while because of scaffolding and equipment and things. And so we're going to set up signage. People will just have to use
the um lower entrance exit. If need be, our staff will go down to that table if it's to accommodate the disabled person. Otherwise, they'll just have to use the steps coming up. Um, days it can be free, you know, the ramp might be available. They're going to start tomorrow, but they won't be closing the
front area for a while yet. But when they close it, it'll be down for 2 to 3 weeks, less estimates. >> They're going to start on the sides or the back or what? >> They're going to start in the front, but they're not going to do they're going to start with the chimney. >> So, they're going to set off to the side of the front steps out here. So, you'll be able to come in and out of there, but
once they get to where they're working above the door, it'll be a two to three week cuz they're building that dormer above it, remember? So, the water gets out shuts because we've had water damage there before. So when it gets to that point, it'll be two to three weeks. >> All right. >> Work our way around and then obviously
we've got the steps uh railing situation as we'll keep working with that afterward. So >> any other questions for administrator? >> All right. Thank you. >> Finance officer Kelly, you got a report? >> No report. >> Public work shown?
>> Yeah, there's a report there. uh stuff in there if you have questions. The one thing we'll point out was uh Highway 30, we had the intoxicated driver hit our retaining wall. Uh it's on state property, but according to our
state contract, we are responsible for maintaining that wall. So, we tried to turn that into our insurance, but the insurance company says that's not on our property and there's not a right in there disclaiming that that's our wall. So, they will not cover it. So, we're
eating the cost of that wall and we'll pursue what angles we can to try and recoup that from the individual. in the insurance. >> Well, and what I need to do is we talked about that we need to go up and down Main Street then and if that's the way
they are and I don't know how they decide that because that one got hit by the paint wall got hit by the car wash out there and the state took care of fixing that one. So, we need to figure out if these walls are hard for insurance or how that is. I mean, it's been in the policies forever this way.
Uh, so we just need to verify after discovering this and go up and down Main Street and verify each one. I believe the ones we did as part of our street projects are the homes. >> They're not. >> They're ours. >> I thought we put them as part of the project, but they were back on the
property. >> No, it was part of the project for us to do, but they were and so it wasn't going to be because we forced them to do it. They had to do it. >> Does the one in the old house? >> Oh, we got I think we got >> We'll have to look at that. >> Say Bernard's in the other one. I think that came up during meetings.
>> No, >> seems like it did. It seems like we Yeah. >> Well, I don't think it'd be a problem necessarily if it was on city property >> cuz then it would be ours. I think the problem is it's state property. I did send right >> our contract from the state saying what
that they're ours. I sent that to the League of Minnesota Cities and then so they looked at that and came the ones you're talking about. Sure. They got they got to pretty well be on our property anyhow cuz >> they're in the right way for our >> Okay. >> So they would be our property >> but we should we should go through that
stuff and clean that up. Make >> that. So >> pool company's back or they got it done. >> They were No, they're there today. They started today. They weren't going yesterday but we're in uh and they plan on being done actually. You know they going to be late show up late today with
equipment start tomorrow. >> They plan to be done within 5 days. >> Good fil >> and then we've got to keep it filmed filled and we have to brush it twice a day for the first month.
>> So when's the pool plan open? Just out of curiosity. >> Second week of June. >> June 8th. >> Is that late? That's how school gets open. >> We don't have employees until school's over. >> Any other questions for Sean?
>> Thank you, Sean. City engineers not here for report. Library director not here. Uh fire chief not here. Pool director's not here. All right. Committee commission, board of chamber of commerce, nothing in our packet. ADAH minutes are in there.
a lengthy discussion on several items that night that uh talking about policy changes and some of our programs and things such as that. So, >> yeah, they were talked about tonight, too. >> Yep.
>> All right. Finance. We had a couple meetings and we met with Andrew and we got to see it all again tonight. So, great time. Library? >> Uh, nothing. Park board nothing there. >> Personnel compliance zoning, nothing.
Public safety, >> nothing. >> Here and out the doors. Public works, nothing. >> Ready. >> Uh those two minutes in your packet, our big discussions have obviously been data centers. Uh for the public's information, Steuartville has not been
approached. Uh that's part of the reason we're in the um study with the U of M to see what kind of things to look at, what things to be checklist items uh if we are ever approached. So if you get those comments uh or questions since it's in
the news, um that's the current status. >> Okay. Rooff, >> uh we meet tomorrow. Minutes from last meeting your packet. Nothing really equivalent for us on that in the minutes. Uh you still pushing on them guys about our 15th Avenue out there?
>> Yeah. In fact, uh tomorrow's meeting uh they're going to up uh up upgrade uh 15th Avenue, the classification of it. Um 20th, our portion of 20th and 11th. Um 4th over here, uh that's the truck
route. And then the county is pushing um the current 20th um under their upgrade uh status. But that um should help with our argument uh as we continue on. And then just to follow up on that, the
mayor and I did testify uh before the Senate Transportation Committee uh last week to at least throw in our plug again uh to them >> for the bonding bill. >> For the bonding bill. So we'll see where that goes. think there's going to be a
bonding bill this year or not? >> This is just a news story. It said both sides of the aisle we're trying to figure out one is needed and so we'll assume they'll work for one right at this moment. But if we don't get it,
that's when we talked about at the workshop to all of us going up to the county board and seeing if they'll be a bigger participant in helping us than High Forest Township and be tackling this project somehow ourselves. So, >> all right. Any other questions for Bill?
All right. Thanks. Nothing from transit advisory committee. There's no communications on our packet. We have the open mic. Uh get this. City welcomes and encourages participation of community members. Please keep in mind that your comments may must be burned to city business. Must adhere to data
