City Council Workshop
April 1, 2024
The City Council of the City of Hastings, Minnesota met in a workshop on Monday, April 1,
2024, at 5:30 p.m. in the Volunteer Room at the Hastings City Hall, 101 East 4th Street, Hastings,
Minnesota.
Members Present: Mayor Fasbender, Councilmembers Fox, Haus, Lawrence, Leifeld,
Pemble, and Vihrachoff
Members Absent: None
Staff Present: City Administrator Dan Wietecha
Assistant City Administrator Kelly Murtaugh
Public Works Director Ryan Stempski
Mayor Fasbender called the workshop to order at 5:33 pm and welcomed councilmembers and
staff.
Overview
Stempski reviewed the PFAS (PFOA & PFOS chemicals) situation in the City as well as the
impacts of PFAS on human health. Stempski shared the PFAS levels in the City that are sampled
regularly. The chemistry of the water and PFAS levels have been relatively consistent over the
years, but the allowable levels are changing. Pending new limits from the EPA, compliance will
require that we mitigate to 4 parts per trillion—the current levels in the Hastings wells are near
or above this.
A Feasibility Study has been completed to gain insight into how the City would seek to mitigate.
The most feasible option is a decentralized approach using three treatment plants: located in the
Industrial Park, Lions Park, and Wallin Park. The treatment plants would remove both PFAS and
nitrates. The project would take from 2024-2027 to phase in construction of one plant per year
for three years. There will also be an interconnect with the Veterans Home as part of first phase
of the project.
Council discussion on bandwidth of the Public Works team to handle the many simultaneous
major projects within the City. Stempski indicated that much of the planning and design of many
of the projects utilizes external contractors in consultation with City staff.
Currently in design for Water Treatment Plant 1, located in the industrial park to serve Wells 6 &
8, as well as connecting the Veterans Home. Next, Water Treatment Plant 2 would serve Wells 3,
5, and 7 and will be in Lions Park (near Well 3). Lastly, WTP 3 will serve Wells 4 & 9 (future
well) and will be in Wallin Park.
Council discussion on access to the WTP for trucks and the size of the buildings housing the
WTP. Stempski indicated that the intent is to do a good job on the first one and then use that to
inform and improve the next two. The buildings need to be tall to accommodate treatment
structures and the plan is to make the structure fit into the neighborhoods and the zoning
requirements.
Status
Several key factors are currently in process. We are waiting on the maximum contaminant levels
to be officially released by EPA, as well as any associated guidance from MDH. An updated 3M
Conceptual Site Model for the Hastings vicinity is due soon. When it is ready, we expect to
discuss its effect with the Co-Trustees and the potential of bringing Hastings into the 3M East
Metro Settlement. As part of our due diligence and pursuing all funds available, there are two
upcoming applications (Project Priority List and Intended Use Plan) with the Drinking Water
Revolving Fund an Emerging Contaminants Grant. Pursuing financial support through the
State’s Capital Budget (State Bonding Bill) is ongoing. We are committed to be “shovel ready”
to go out for bids to begin construction of WTP 1 by August 2024.
Cost Information and Funding Strategies
The total project cost is estimated at $68.9M with operations and maintenance estimated at $1M
annually. The City has received $3.18M from MPCA Planning and Design Grant.
Council discussion on the potential for increased cost as it will take three phases to complete the
project. Increased materials costs were considered in the total estimated costs. Council discussion
on phasing of funds vs. seeking full cost from legislature.
3M Settlement: The State’s Co-Trustees believe there needs to be direct connection—but this is
not required in the 2018 Settlement Agreement or the Minnesota Conceptual Drinking Water
Supply Plan. Phase I and II environmental site assessments have been conducted to find (or rule
out) other potential sources of the contaminants. HQ-115 is a 3M chemical and has been found in
Well #5. Recent Minnesota Geological Survey found cracks in the bedrock that may support
groundwater passing below the Mississippi River and/or leaching of the contaminants into the
aquifer. The 3M Settlement would only pay for PFAS treatment, not nitrates.
State bonding: Two bills (SF 3161 and HF 3115) need to be slightly amended to the updated
cost estimate and to include nitrate treatment. We are encouraging for hearings before the
appropriate committees. If the project were funded in phases, funding for first phase would
increase the likelihood of being funded in subsequent phases. A question posed by legislators:
Can the City contribute financially? To date, the City has paid for the feasibility study, holds the
land value, seeks other funding sources including the $3.18M design grant, and will be
responsible for the annual operation and maintenance.
City Funds: Currently, average residential water bill runs $17.11 per month. If the City were
responsible for the entire cost for the mitigation project, the average residential water bill could
increase to $47.93 per month in three years and would continue increasing to $59.64 per month
in 10 years. Council discussion that this would be at the top of Metro Area rates and near the top
of Greater Minnesota rates.
Other Funding Options: The City will apply for upcoming applications (Project Priority List and
Intended Use Plan) with the Drinking Water Revolving Fund an Emerging Contaminants Grant.
The City is also exploring the feasibility of federal Community Project Funding. These options
would likely cover a portion, but not all, of the project costs.
ADJOURNMENT

Mathisen provided an overview of the 2024 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements project. This
project contains street and utility improvements to six City streets ranging in scope of work from reclamation
of streets to full street and utility reconstruction. The full scope of the project was presented to Council on
March 4, 2024. Mathisen reviewed the methodology of the assessment This methodology recognizes
ordinance allowance to assess by lot rather than by length of frontage, especially for irregularly shaped lots.
Mathisen outlined the payment options for this project, including abatement or deferral options. Council is
asked to approve the resolution to order the project and adopt the proposed assessments for the project.
Mayor Fasbender opened the public hearing at: 7:30 p.m.
Mayor Fasbender closed the public hearing at: 7:31 p.m.
Council expressed appreciation for developing per-lot assessment methodologies based on resident
feedback. Council also expressed appreciation for the communication efforts of staff in responding to resident
questions and concerns and making an extra effort in making sure residents understand the process.
Councilmember Leifeld motioned to approve as presented, seconded by Councilmember Haus.
7 Ayes, 0 Nays.
Agreement for Services: Downtown Planters and Hanging Baskets
Wietecha provided an overview of the request to hire a contractor to perform beautification efforts in
the Downtown area. The effort includes planting and maintaining the ground level planters and purchasing,
installing, and maintaining hanging flower baskets. Staff were contacted by another local landscape company
desiring to submit a quote for the services. Wietecha indicated two companies submitted quotes, Green
Companies and Precision Landscaping. While both were very similar, Green Companies’ quote was the low
bid for the 2024 services. Staff recommends accepting Green Companies’ quote and approving the contract
for services totaling $20,715.00.
Council discussion on the expense of taking care of planters on 2nd Street, the beautification effort,
and options. Mayor Fasbender provided clarification of the bid to include regular watering. Wietecha
indicated the Downtown Business Association has contributed a donation to the Parks and Recreation
Department to assist in funding. Council discussed different funding or maintenance options for the future and
the overall appearance of the planters. Discussion on inclusivity and equity in the bidding process. As a focal
point for the City, large pots contribute to the beautification, and corner safety, and greening contributes to
placemaking. Council discussion on the balance of the responsibility of the expense or other ways to maintain
pots/baskets in a different manner, such as partnering with the horticulture program at the High School or the
local gardening clubs. Councilmembers urge review of the options for future years to reduce direct cost to the
City.
Councilmember Leifeld motioned to approve as presented, seconded by Councilmember Lawrence.
7 Ayes, 0 Nays.

Agreement for Services: Hwy 61 Median Maintenance
Wietecha provided an overview of the request to hire a contractor for annual maintenance within the
TH 61 median. Wietecha shared Precision Landscaping and Construction, Inc. has performed this work for a
number of years. Wietecha indicated this contracted work has not been subject to an official agreement in the
past, however it is recommended for current and future contracted work to ensure both parties have accurate
and legal obligations to one another. Staff recommends accepting the quote from Precision Landscaping and
Construction, Inc. and approving the contract for services totaling $12,909.68.
Council discussion on the value of seasonal maintenance.
Councilmember Fox motioned to approve as presented, seconded by Councilmember Haus.
6 Ayes, 1 Nay (Leifeld).
PFAS Update
Wietecha presented the PFAS Update, planning to have this as a recurring topic on the Council
agenda as there will be many changes in the coming months. Wietecha indicated Hastings has PFAS
contaminations in all six of our municipal wells. Recent epidemiology and understanding of the health
impacts of PFAS and new regulatory standards pending the EPA are expected to require the City to mitigate
the PFAS from our drinking water. Wietecha reviewed the various communication efforts to the public and
shared City Council will have a PFAS Update at the first City Council meeting each month. Wietecha
reviewed key updates, potential funding, and the environmental investigations currently underway. The topic
is informational, no City Council action is requested at this time.
Council discussion on appreciation for the work that staff have done to advance the topic and keeping
everyone informed. Council reminder of where residents can go to get information on the City website that
may lead to other resources who are more versed in PFAS and its health impacts. Wietecha urged residents to
contact the City if they have questions.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers
From: Paige Marschall Bigler, Recreation Program Specialist
Date: April 15, 2024
Item: Special Event Designation – Historic Hastings Car Shows
Council Action Requested:
Designate the Historic Hastings Car Shows as Special Events with the following conditions
recommended by City staff.
Background Information:
The Downtown Business Association (DBA) is planning for the 2024 Car Show events. The
event dates will be the 3rd Sunday of each month: May 19, June 16, July 21, August 18,
September 15 and October 13 from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The event has the same footprint
as previous years.
Traffic Management Conditions:
• Street closure of the area barricaded in red (reference map) from 9:00 a.m. – 5:00
p.m. for event. Sibley St. should stay open until 9:30 a.m. to allow for public parking
and Legion access. This would be consistent with previous Car Shows.
• Event Organizers will post ‘No Parking’ signs 24-hrs. prior to the event.
• Hastings Police will tag/tow any cars in restricted area starting at 9:00 a.m. This is
consistent with other special events.
• Area to block-off include: 2nd Street from Tyler Street to the cross street near The
Lock and Dam Eatery. Ramsey Street from Oliver’s Grove Park to the Levee Park
Entrance. Sibley Street from Level Up Games area to the Alley by the previous
‘Onion Grille’ restaurant.
• Barricade at 3rd Street and blocking the East Frontage Road. Barricade can open as
the show ends for exiting traffic.
• Volunteers will direct cars to appropriate open parking spaces on 2nd, filling from end
to end then filling the center of 2nd between Sibley and Tyler. When full, volunteers
will place street barricades, blocking the entrance.
• Volunteers will direct cars North on Tyler St. and shown other public parking areas
nearby.
• Hastings Police Department will continue to provide Reservists and Police Officers
for the Car Show events.
General Conditions:

bridge south of 2nd St. next to the artwork area and 3 picnic tables on the Levee Park
sidewalk area near the public restrooms; allowing for proper handicap access.
VIII-04
• Event Organizers will coordinate for a food truck and tent under the bridge (where
picnic tables are placed) and on 2nd street under the bridge. The truck window will
face west so guests line up on the sidewalk and not the street.
• DBA to provide additional trash and recycling receptacles for attendees.
• DBA to provide portable bathrooms for attendees.
• Levee Park restrooms will be cleaned and stocked Sunday mornings by Parks
Department Staff. Restrooms are on an automated timer unlocked 7:00 a.m. – 10:00
p.m. daily, unless an issue arises.
• No extra dates be added to this request; only dates specified.
• No vehicles newer than 1985 allowed in designed event area.
• No animals (unless certified service animals) allowed in designed event area.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS Customer and Company agree to the following terms and conditions:
1. Acceptance. Execution of this Agreement constitutes Customer's acceptance of the express terms of Company’s proposal and the offer contained therein, which are included and incorporated into this Agreement. Any additional or different terms proposed by Customer, or any attempt by Customer to vary in any degree any of the terms in this Agreement in Customer’s acceptance, are hereby objected to and rejected, and (i) such additional or different terms shall not operate as a rejection of the incorporation of the Company's proposal in this Agreement unless such variances are with respect to terms involving the description, quantity, or delivery schedule of the Work to be performed by Company as described in Company’s proposal ("the Work” means the supplying of any labor, materials, or any other work of Company expressly described in Company’s proposal); (ii) such additional or different terms shall be deemed a material alteration hereof; and (iii) Company’s proposal shall be deemed accepted by Customer and incorporated into this Agreement without said additional or different terms. 2. Request for Installation; Rights. Customer requests that Company install outdoor lighting at the location(s) designated on page one and/or as shown on the attached exhibit. Customer grants Company any right, privilege, and easement to install, operate and maintain its facilities, including underground facilities, on the property. 3. Installation Requirements. Customer agrees that, prior to Company starting work: (1) the route of Company’s service installation shall be accessible to Company’s equipment; (2) Customer will remove all obstructions from the route at no cost or expense to Company; (3) Customer will clearly mark all septic tanks, drain-fields, sprinkler systems, water wells, owner-installed electric or pipeline facilities, or other Customer-owned facilities in the installation route; and (4) the ground elevation along the route shall not be above or more than four inches below the final grade. Company will contact the appropriate agency to locate 3rd party utility facilities (phone, cable, etc.) on Customer property. Customer agrees Company is not responsible for damage to Customer-owned underground facilities not marked at the time of outdoor lighting service installation.
4. Installation Cost Contribution. Customer agrees to pay an installation cost contribution provided in Project Charges on page one. Customer is responsible for any additional installation costs incurred by Company because of (1) soil conditions that impair the installation of underground facilities, such as rock formations, etc., (2) extensive existing underground facilities, and (3) any existing conditions that exist but did not exist at the time the installation cost was determined, such as new sidewalks, curbing, black top, paving, sod or other landscaping and obstructions along the cable route. 5. Winter Construction Charges. When underground facilities are installed between October 1 and April 15, inclusive, because of failure of Customer to meet all requirements of the Company by September 30, or because the Customer's property, or the streets leading thereto, are not ready to receive the underground facilities by such date, such work will be subject to a Winter Construction Charge when winter conditions of six inches or more of frost exist, snow removal or plowing is required to install service, or burners must be set at the underground facilities in order to install service for the entire length of the underground service. Winter construction will not be undertaken by the Company where prohibited by law or where it is not practical to install underground facilities during the
winter season. The charges apply to frost depths of 18” or less. At greater frost depths, the Company may individually determine the job cost. The Company also reserves the right to charge for any unusual winter construction expenses. All winter construction charges are non-refundable and are in addition to any normal construction charges. 6. Schedule; Delays. Quoted shipping and completion dates are approximate and are based on prompt receipt of all necessary information and approvals from Customer and access as required by Company and its contractors or subcontractors (if any) to the site and to the equipment which is the subject of this Agreement. If Company’s performance is delayed by Customer's suspension of work, in whole or in part, or by any act or omission of Customer, the time for performance will be extended by the period required by Company to return to the state of performance that existed before the delay. If the delay or suspension continues for sixty (60) days, Company has the right to cancel or renegotiate the Agreement. Customer will pay an equitable adjustment based on a claim submitted by Company for all reasonable costs, damages and expenses incurred by Company incident to the delay or suspension.

7. Changes. The prices for any extras or changes to the scope of the Work or modifications to the payment or performance schedule will be agreed upon in writing before either party will be obligated to proceed with such changes. Performance of any change will not waive any claims for equitable adjustment in price or schedule. 8. Relocating Facilities. Customer agrees to pay the cost of relocating any portion of facilities, including underground facilities, to accommodate Customer or as required due to altering of grade, additions to structures, installation of patios, decks, gardens, sidewalks, curbing, paving, blacktop, sod, landscaping, or any other condition which makes maintenance of the Company’s facilities impractical. Company shall notify Customer of such relocations prior to incurring relocation costs. 9. Environmental. Prior to the start of the Work, Customer will provide notice of any hazardous materials or hazardous situations that it is aware of with respect to the facilities where the Work is to be performed or that could affect the Work. In the event Company encounters the existence of asbestos, asbestos containing materials, formaldehyde, lead, or potentially toxic or otherwise hazardous material in the performance of the Work, the discovery thereof shall constitute a cause beyond Company’s reasonable control and Company shall have the right to cease or not commence the Work until the area has been made safe by Customer or Customer’s representative, at Customer’s expense. 10. Restoration. Company will restore any excavation of the boulevard on Customer’s property with existing soil, so it is level and clean.

completion of the Work or invoice Customer monthly for construction work performed under this Agreement.

Limitation of Remedies. IN NO EVENT, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, INDEMNITY, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, SHALL COMPANY BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE.

ever be liable to Customer for any damages or other amounts (including, without limitation, direct or actual damages), whether arising in contract or tort (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise, under or in connection with this Agreement or the Work, in an amount, in the aggregate, in excess of the total price paid for the Work; any and all claims for damages in excess of such amount being hereby forever waived and released by Customer; provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall waive or limit any direct damages which Customer may suffer on account of Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 17.

Neither party will be liable to the other for any delay or failure to perform due to any cause beyond its reasonable control, including fire, flood, strike or other labor difficulty, act of God, or act of any governmental authority. The party experiencing the force majeure will notify the other party promptly, and appropriate adjustments will be negotiated. In the event of delay in performance due to force majeure, the date of delivery or time for completion will be extended by a period necessary to overcome the effect of such delay, provided that if such delay continues for 60 days the party not experiencing the force majeure may terminate this Agreement. 18.

Unless Customer advises Company otherwise in writing within fifteen (15) days after Company’s submission, Company may consider the documents approved and proceed with work. Changes, thereafter, made at the direction of Customer, will entitle Company to adjustment by change order.
19. Documentation and Proprietary Information. Customer will provide Company with accurate and complete information to permit Company to successfully undertake and complete the Work. Company shall not be prohibited from disclosure or use of proprietary or confidential information or documents necessary for Company to secure or maintain in effect any license or permit, or otherwise to complete the Work.

20. Work Product. All reports, drawings, plans, specifications, calculations, studies, software programs, tapes, models, and memoranda, if any, assembled or prepared by Company or Company’s affiliates, independent professional associates, agents, consultants, contractors, or subcontractors pursuant to this Agreement are instruments of service in respect of the Work, and Company shall retain all ownership and property interest therein, whether or not the Work is completed. Customer may make and retain copies for information and reference in connection with the Work; provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that such documents are not intended to be re-used by Customer or others on extensions of the project or on any other project or any other purpose other than as expressly set forth in this Agreement, and Customer shall not re-use or disclose to any third party all or any portion of such work product without the express prior written consent of Company. 21.

Customer shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company and its officers, directors, agents, employees, and representatives from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses (including attorneys' fees and costs) arising, for any reason whatsoever, out of the failure, non-operation or faulty performance of Customer's facilities (except to the extent of Company’s gross negligence or willful misconduct). 22. Subcontracting. Company may subcontract any portion or all the Work without the approval of Customer.
23. Independent Contractor.

Other. It is agreed that failure by Customer or by Company at any time or from time to time to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provision or of Customer's right or Company’s right, respectively, to thereafter enforce each provision hereof. This Agreement contains, with respect to the specific services to be performed by Company, the entire understanding of the parties, and shall supersede any other oral or written agreements and be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties' successors and assigns. This Agreement may not be modified in any way without the written consent of both parties. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court to be unenforceable, then such provision will be deemed invalid, but the remaining provisions shall be enforceable according to their terms. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Minnesota (as opposed to conflicts of law’s provisions) as though all acts and omissions contemplated hereby or related hereto occurred in Minnesota.

This Agreement shall also terminate and no longer be of any force or effect upon the Public Entity’s sale of its ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.01 and transmittal of all or a portion of the proceeds of such sale to the Commissioner of MMB in compliance with the provisions contained in Section 4.02, or upon the termination of Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if

Section 2.13 Excess Funds.

Article III USE CONTRACTS This Article III and its contents is only needed and only applies if the Public Entity enters into an
agreement with another party under which such other party will operate any portion of the Real
Property, and if applicable, Facility. For all other circumstances this Article III and its contents

Section 3.01 General Provisions. If the Public Entity has statutory authority to enter into a Use Contract, then it may enter into Use Contracts for various portions of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility; provided that each and every Use Contract that the Public Entity enters into must comply with the following requirements:
A. The purpose for which it was entered into must be to operate the State Program in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility. B. It must contain a provision setting forth the statutory authority under which the
Public Entity is entering into such contract and must comply with the substantive and
procedural provisions of such statute. C. It must contain a provision stating that it is being entered into in order for the Counterparty to operate the State Program and must describe such program.
D. It must contain a provision that will provide for oversight by the Public Entity. Such oversight may be accomplished by way of a provision that will require the Counterparty to provide to the Public Entity: (i) an initial program evaluation report for the first fiscal year that the Counterparty will operate the State Program, (ii) program budgets for each succeeding fiscal year showing that forecast program revenues and additional revenues
available for the operation of the State Program (from all sources) by the Counterparty will equal or exceed expenses for such operation for each succeeding fiscal year, and (iii) a mechanism under which the Public Entity will annually determine that the Counterparty is using the portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract to operate the State Program.
VIII-08

E. It must allow for termination by the Public Entity in the event of a default thereunder by the Counterparty, or in the event that the State Program is terminated or changed in a manner that precludes the operation of such program in the portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract.
F. It must terminate upon the termination of the statutory authority under which the Public Entity is operating the State Program.
G. It must require the Counterparty to pay all costs of operation and maintenance of
that portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract, unless the Public Entity is authorized by law to pay such costs and agrees to pay such costs.
H. If the Public Entity pays monies to a Counterparty under a Use Contract, such
Use Contract must meet the requirements of Rev. Proc. 97-13, 1997-1 CB 632, so that such Use Contract does not result in “private business use” under Section 141(b) of the Code. I. It must be approved, in writing, by the Commissioner of MMB, and any Use
Contract that is not approved, in writing, by the Commissioner of MMB shall be null and
void and of no force or effect. J. It must contain a provision requiring that each and every party thereto shall, upon direction by the Commissioner of MMB, take such actions and furnish such documents to the Commissioner of MMB as the Commissioner of MMB determines to be necessary to
ensure that the interest to be paid on the G.O. Bonds is exempt from federal income taxation. K. It must contain a provision that prohibits the Counterparty from creating or allowing, without the prior written consent of the State Entity and the Commissioner of MMB, any voluntary lien or encumbrance or involuntary lien or encumbrance that can be
satisfied by the payment of monies and which is not being actively contested against the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility, the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility, or the Counterparty’s interest in the Use Contract, whether such lien or encumbrance is superior or subordinate to the Declaration. Provided, however, the State Entity and the Commissioner of MMB will consent, in writing, to any such lien or
encumbrance that secures the repayment of a loan the repayment of which will not impair or burden the funds needed to operate the portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract in the manner specified in Section 2.04 and for which the entire amount is used (i) to acquire additional real estate that is needed to so operate the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility in accordance with the requirements
imposed under Section 2.04 and will be included in and as part of the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility, and/or (ii) to pay for capital improvements that are needed to so operate the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility in accordance with the requirements imposed under Section 2.04.
L. If the amount of the Program Grant exceeds $200,000.00, then it must contain a provision requiring the Counterparty to list any vacant or new positions it may have with
VIII-08
Generic GO Bond Proceeds 18 Ver – 10/26/20 Grant Agreement for Program End Grants
state workforce centers as required by Minn. Stat. § 116L.66, as it may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time, for the term of the Use Contract.
M. It must contain a provision that clearly states that the Public Entity is not required
to renew the Use Contract beyond the original term thereof and that the Public Entity may, at its sole option and discretion, allow the Use Contract to expire at the end of its original term and thereafter directly operate the governmental program in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility or contract with some other entity to operate the governmental program
in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility.
Section 3.02 Initial Term and Renewal. The initial term for a Use Contract may not exceed the lesser of (i) 50% of the Useful Life of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility for the portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract, or (ii) the shortest term of the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if
applicable, Facility. A Use Contract may allow for renewals beyond its initial term on the conditions that (a) the term of any renewal may not exceed the initial term, (b) the Public Entity must make a determination that renewal will continue to carry out the State Program and that the Counterparty
is suited and able to perform the functions contained in Use Contract that is to be renewed, (c) the Use Contract may not include any provisions that would require, either directly or indirectly, the Public Entity to either make the determination referred to in this Section or to renew the Use Contract with the Counterparty after the expiration of the initial term or any renewal term, and (d) no such renewal may occur prior to the date that is 6 months prior to the date on which the Use
Contract is scheduled to terminate. Provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein the Public Entity’s voluntary agreement to reimburse the Counterparty for any investment that the Counterparty provided for the acquisition or betterment of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract if the Public Entity does not renew a Use Contract if requested by the Counterparty is not deemed to be a provision that directly or
indirectly requires the Public Entity to renew such Use Contract. Section 3.03 Reimbursement of Counterparty. A Use Contract may but need not contain, at the sole option and discretion of the Public Entity, a provision that requires the Public Entity to reimburse the Counterparty for any investment that the Counterparty provided for the
acquisition or betterment of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of the Use Contract if the Public Entity does not renew a Use Contract if requested by the Counterparty. If agreed to by the Public Entity, such reimbursement shall be on terms and conditions agreed to by the Public Entity and the Counterparty.
Section 3.04 Receipt of Monies Under a Use Contract. The Public Entity does not anticipate the receipt of any funds under a Use Contract, provided, however, if the Public Entity does receive any monies under a Use Contract in excess of the amount the Public Entity needs and is authorized to use to pay the operating expenses of the portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that is the subject of a Use Contract, and to pay the principal, interest,
redemption premiums, and other expenses on Approved Debt, then a portion of such excess monies must be paid by the Public Entity to the Commissioner of MMB. The portion of such excess
VIII-08
Generic GO Bond Proceeds 19 Ver – 10/26/20 Grant Agreement for Program End Grants
monies that the Public Entity must and shall pay to the Commissioner of MMB shall be determined by the Commissioner of MMB, and absent circumstances which would indicate otherwise such portion shall be determined by multiplying such excess monies by a fraction the numerator of which is the Program Grant and the denominator of which is sum of the Program Grant and the
Approved Debt. Article IV SALE
Section 4.01 Sale. The Public Entity shall not sell any part of its ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility unless all of the following provisions have been complied with fully.
A. The Public Entity determines, by official action, that such ownership interest is
no longer usable or needed for the operation of the State Program, which such determination may be based on a determination that the portion of the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility to which such ownership interest applies is no longer suitable or financially feasible for such purpose.
B. The sale is made as authorized by law. C. The sale is for Fair Market Value.
D. The written consent of the Commissioner of MMB has been obtained.
The acquisition of the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility at a foreclosure sale, by acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or enforcement of a security interest in personal property used in the operation thereof, by a
lender that has provided monies for the acquisition of the Public Entity’s ownership interest
in or betterment of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility shall not be considered a sale for the purposes of this Agreement if after such acquisition the lender operates such portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility in a manner which is not inconsistent with the requirements imposed under Section 2.04 and the lender uses its best efforts to sell such
acquired interest to a third party for Fair Market Value. The lender’s ultimate sale or
disposition of the acquired interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility shall be deemed to be a sale for the purposes of this Agreement, and the proceeds thereof shall be disbursed in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.02.
The Public Entity may participate in any public auction of its ownership interest in the Real
Property and, if applicable, Facility and bid thereon; provided that the Public Entity agrees that if it is the successful purchaser it will not use any part of the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility for the State Program.

in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility the proceeds thereof after the deduction of all costs directly associated and incurred in conjunction with such sale and such other costs that are

approved, in writing, by the Commissioner of MMB, but not including the repayment of any debt associated with the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility, shall be disbursed in the following manner and order.
A. The first distribution shall be to the Commissioner of MMB in an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of the Program Grant, and if the amount of such net proceeds shall be less than the amount of the Outstanding Balance of the Program Grant then all of such net proceeds shall be distributed to the Commissioner of MMB.
B. The remaining portion, after the distribution specified in Section 4.02.A, shall be distributed to (i) pay in full any outstanding Approved Debt, (ii) reimburse the Public Entity for its Ownership Value, and (iii) to pay interested public and private entities, other than any such entity that has already received the full amount of its contribution (such as the State
Entity under Section 4.02.A and the holders of Approved Debt paid under this Section
4.02.B), the amount of money that such entity contributed to the Initial Acquisition and Betterment Costs and the Subsequent Betterment Costs. If such remaining portion is not sufficient to reimburse interested public and private entities for the full amount that such entities contributed to the acquisition or betterment of the Real Property and, if applicable,
Facility, then the amount available shall be distributed as such entities may agree in writing,
and if such entities cannot agree by an appropriately issued court order. C. The remaining portion, after the distributions specified in Sections 4.02.A and B, shall be divided and distributed to the State Entity, the Public Entity, and any other public and private entity that contributed funds to the Initial Acquisition and Betterment Costs and
the Subsequent Betterment Costs, other than lenders who supplied any of such funds, in proportion to the contributions that the State Entity, the Public Entity, and such other public and private entities made to the acquisition and betterment of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility as such amounts are part of the Ownership Value, Initial Acquisition and Betterment Costs, and Subsequent Betterment Costs.
The distribution to the State Entity shall be made to the Commissioner of MMB, and the Public Entity may direct its distribution to be made to any other entity including, but not limited to, a Counterparty.
All amounts to be disbursed under this Section 4.02 must be consented to, in writing, by the Commissioner of MMB, and no such disbursements shall be made without such consent. The Public Entity shall not be required to pay or reimburse the State Entity or the
Commissioner of MMB for any funds above and beyond the full net proceeds of such sale, even
if such net proceeds are less than the amount of the Outstanding Balance of the Program Grant. Article V COMPLIANCE WITH G.O. COMPLIANCE LEGISLATION

Section 5.01 State Bond Financed Property. The Public Entity and the State Entity acknowledge and agree that the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility is, or when acquired by the Public Entity will be, “state bond financed property”, as such term is used in the G.O. Compliance Legislation and the Commissioner’s Order,
and, therefore, the provisions contained in such statute and order apply, or will apply, to the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility and any Use Contracts relating thereto.
Section 5.02 Preservation of Tax Exempt Status. In order to preserve the tax-exempt
status of the G.O. Bonds, the Public Entity agrees as follows: A. It will not use the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility, or use or invest the Program Grant or any other sums treated as “bond proceeds” under Section 148 of the Code including “investment proceeds,” “invested sinking funds,” and “replacement proceeds,” in
such a manner as to cause the G.O. Bonds to be classified as “arbitrage bonds” under Section 148 of the Code. B. It will deposit into and hold all of the Program Grant that it receives under this
Agreement in a segregated non-interest bearing account until such funds are used for
payments for the Project in accordance with the provisions contained herein. C.

Bonds.
D. It will, upon the occurrence of any act or omission by the Public Entity or any Counterparty, that could cause the interest on the G.O. Bonds to no longer be tax exempt and upon direction from the Commissioner of MMB, take such actions and furnish such
documents as the Commissioner of MMB determines to be necessary to ensure that the
interest to be paid on the G.O. Bonds is exempt from federal taxation, which such action may include either: (i) compliance with proceedings intended to classify the G.O. Bonds as a “qualified bond” within the meaning of Section 141(e) of the Code, (ii) changing the nature or terms of the Use Contract so that it complies with Revenue Procedure 97-13, as amended
by Rev. Proc 2016-44 and Rev. Proc. 2017-13, or (iii) changing the nature of the use of the
Real Property or, if applicable, Facility so that none of the net proceeds of the G.O. Bonds will be used, directly or indirectly, in an “unrelated trade or business” or for any “private business use” (within the meaning of Sections 141(b) and 145(a) of the Code), or (iv) compliance with other Code provisions, regulations, or revenue procedures which amend or
supersede the foregoing.
E. It will not otherwise use any of the Program Grant, including earnings thereon, if any, or take or permit to or cause to be taken any action that would adversely affect the exemption from federal income taxation of the interest on the G.O. Bonds, nor omit to take
any action necessary to maintain such tax exempt status, and if it should take, permit, omit
to take, or cause to be taken, as appropriate, any such action, it shall take all lawful actions

necessary to rescind or correct such actions or omissions promptly upon having knowledge thereof.
Section 5.03 Changes to G.O. Compliance Legislation or the Commissioner’s Order.
In the event that the G.O. Compliance Legislation or the Commissioner’s Order is amended in a manner that reduces any requirement imposed against the Public Entity, or if the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility is exempt from the G.O. Compliance Legislation and the Commissioner’s Order, then upon written request by the Public
Entity the State Entity shall enter into and execute an amendment to this Agreement to implement
herein such amendment to or exempt the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility from the G.O. Compliance Legislation or the Commissioner’s Order. Article VI

Article VII MISCELLANEOUS Section 7.01 Insurance. The Public Entity shall, upon acquisition of the ownership interest delineated in Section 2.02, insure the Facility, if such exists, in an amount equal to the full insurable value thereof (i) by self insuring under a program of self insurance legally adopted,
maintained and adequately funded by the Public Entity, or (ii) by way of builders risk insurance and fire and extended coverage insurance with a deductible in an amount acceptable to the State Entity under which the State Entity and the Public Entity are named as loss payees.

such damage and to provide or cause to be provided whatever additional funds that may be needed to fully or partially repair such damage, or (z) sell its ownership interest in the damaged Facility and portion of the Real Property associated therewith in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.01.
If the Public Entity elects to only partially repair such damage, then the portion of the insurance proceeds not used for such repair shall be applied in accordance with the provisions
VIII-08
Generic GO Bond Proceeds 25 Ver – 10/26/20 Grant Agreement for Program End Grants
contained in Section 4.02 as if the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and Facility had been sold, and such amounts shall be credited against the amounts due and owing under Section 4.02 upon the ultimate sale of the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the Real Property and Facility. If the Public Entity elects to sell its ownership interest in the damaged
Facility and portion of the Real Property associated therewith, then such sale must occur within a reasonable time period from the date the damage occurred and the cumulative sum of the insurance proceeds plus the proceeds of such sale must be applied in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.02, with the insurance proceeds being so applied within a reasonable time period from the date they are received by the Public Entity.
The State Entity agrees to and will assign or pay over to the Public Entity all insurance proceeds it receives so that the Public Entity can comply with the requirements that this Section imposes thereon as to the use of such insurance proceeds.
If the Public Entity elects to maintain general comprehensive liability insurance regarding the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility, then the Public Entity shall have the State Entity named as an additional named insured therein.
The Public Entity may require a Counterparty to provide and maintain any or all of the
insurance required under this Section; provided that the Public Entity continues to be responsible for the providing of such insurance in the event that the Counterparty fails to provide or maintain such insurance.
At the written request of either the State Entity or the Commissioner of MMB, the Public
Entity shall promptly furnish to the requesting entity all written notices and all paid premium receipts received by the Public Entity regarding the required insurance, or certificates of insurance evidencing the existence of such required insurance.
If the Public Entity fails to provide and maintain the insurance required under this Section,
then the State Entity may, at its sole option and discretion, obtain and maintain insurance of an equivalent nature, and any funds expended by the State Entity to obtain or maintain such insurance shall be due and payable on demand by the State Entity and bear interest from the date of advancement by the State Entity at a rate equal to the lesser of the maximum interest rate allowed
by law or 18% per annum based upon a 365-day year. Provided, however, nothing contained
herein, including but not limited to this Section, shall require the State Entity to obtain or maintain such insurance, and the State Entity’s decision to not obtain or maintain such insurance shall not lessen the Public Entity’s duty to obtain and maintain such insurance.

interest delineated in Section 2.02 all or any portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility is condemned to an extent that the Public Entity can no longer comply with the provisions contained in Section 2.04, then the Public Entity shall, at its sole option and discretion, either: (i) use or cause the condemnation proceeds to be used to acquire an interest in additional real property needed for the Public Entity to continue to comply with the provisions contained in Section 2.04
and, if applicable, to fully or partially restore the Facility, and to provide or cause to be provided whatever additional funds that may be needed for such purposes, or (ii) sell the remaining portion
VIII-08
Generic GO Bond Proceeds 26 Ver – 10/26/20 Grant Agreement for Program End Grants
of its ownership interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.01. Any condemnation proceeds which are not used to acquire an interest in additional real property or to restore, if applicable, the Facility shall be applied in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.02 as if the Public Entity’s ownership
interest in the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility had been sold, and such amounts shall be credited against the amounts due and owing under Section 4.02 upon the ultimate sale of the Public Entity’s ownership interest in the remaining Real Property and, if applicable, Facility. If the Public Entity elects to sell its ownership interest in the portion of the Real Property and, if applicable, Facility that remains after the condemnation, then such sale must occur within a reasonable time
period from the date the condemnation occurred and the cumulative sum of the condemnation proceeds plus the proceeds of such sale must be applied in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 4.02, with the condemnation proceeds being so applied within a reasonable time period from the date they are received by the Public Entity.
As recipient of any of condemnation awards or proceeds referred to herein, the State Entity agrees to and will disclaim, assign or pay over to the Public Entity all of such condemnation awards or proceeds it receives so that the Public Entity can comply with the requirements that this Section imposes upon the Public Entity as to the use of such condemnation awards or proceeds.

Facility, for any purpose other than the purposes specified in Section 2.04, (b) remove, demolish or substantially alter any of the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility, except such alterations as may be required by laws, ordinances or regulations or such other alterations as may improve such Real Property or, if applicable, Facility by increasing the value thereof or improving its ability to
be used to operate the State Program thereon or therein, (c) do any act or thing which would unduly
impair or depreciate the value of the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility, (d) abandon the Real Property or, if applicable, Facility, (e) commit or permit any waste or deterioration of the Real

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Council Members
From: David D. Wilske, Chief of Police
Date: April 15th, 2024
Item: Firearms Storage Grant
Council Action Requested:
Accept a DPS-OJP Grant of $1,300.00 for the purchase of evidence storage units.
Background Information:
The Department of Public Safety in conjunction with the Office of Justice Programs requested proposals
to fund grants which supports the safe and secure storage of firearms owner by persons subject to
Extreme Risk Protection Orders, (ERPO), a new state law enacted on January 1st, 2024. This new law
allows court orders to temporarily remove firearms from a person in crisis, if that person poses a
significant danger to others or, as at risk of suicide. The funds, which were approved through the grant,
will allow the Hastings Police Department to purchase and implement two new U-Line ventilated storage
units which will provide sufficient capabilities to house additional firearms, as our current method is
deemed to be at capacity. The units will also provide an additional layer of security inside the Evidence
Room. The new units will provide our property room and technician with increased functionality in
evidence storage, access, and logistics. This is 100% funded, and upon the approval of City Council, the
city will order and pay for the storage units and be refunded by the state.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Council Members
From: John Caven
Date: April 8, 2024
Item: CSAH 42 Corridor Study – Council Update
Council Action Requested:
The Council is requested to provide input on alternative solutions and encourage public attendance at the
upcoming open house to be announced soon.
Background Information:
In 2021, Dakota County performed a pedestrian crossing assessment to evaluate pedestrian safety
crossings along its corridors. The Mississippi River Greenway (MRG) trail crossing on CSAH 42 between
Pleasant Dr and Madison St was evaluated. The study concluded this location would benefit from a
median refuge island to reduce the pedestrian crossing length. However, it also recommended the
network of crossings on CSAH 42 from Lock Blvd to Pine St be evaluated in the near future.
In 2023, Dakota County partnered with HR Green to evaluate the corridor. An open house was
conducted on January 23, 2024 to gather input from area residents to identify difficult crossings and
understand general usage patterns. With additional input from the City and County, HR Green
subsequently developed short term (low cost) and long term (high cost) solutions. Four alternative
options were developed and will be presented to the public for feedback at the open house.
Feedback from the initial open house and corridor data collection emphasized the need for vehicle speed
reduction, trail connectivity, and reduced pedestrian crossing lengths along the corridor. Elimination of
vehicle bypass lanes and reduction of underused left turn/right turn lanes would create as safter corridor
and reduce vehicle/pedestrian conflict points. Other various options to improve the corridor include (see
attached maps):
1) Bump Outs.
2) Medians.
3) Trail/sidewalk extensions/elimination/widening
4) Trail/sidewalk crossing location enhancements/reduction
5) On-street bike facilities
6) Round-a-bouts
Financial Impact:
The City is responsible for 15% of the costs associated with the study. Any future project will be
budgeted through the normal budgetary process.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff is recommending the City Council continue to pursue recommendation through this study,
fostering public input at the open houses.

Speed Control Features
Speed control curb extension (SCCE)Raised crosswalk
Curb extension to remove bypass lane, right turn lane, or shoulder - does not include pedestrian crossing.
Remove bypass lanes at the following intersections:
▪ United Hospital entrance (between 1st Street and Pleasant Street)
▪ Madison Street
▪ Monroe Street
Raised crosswalks are ramped speed tables spanning the entire width of the roadway. The crosswalk
is demarcated with paint and/or special paving materials. These crosswalks act as traffic-calming
measures that allow the pedestrian to cross at grade with the sidewalk. Raised crosswalks are flush with
the height of the sidewalk. The crosswalk table is typically at least 10 feet wide and designed to allow
the front and rear wheels of a passenger vehicle to be on top of the table at the same time. Detectable
warnings (truncated domes) and curb ramps are installed at the street edge for pedestrians with
impaired vision.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers
From: City Administrator Dan Wietecha
Date: April 15, 2024
Item: PFAS Update
Council Action Requested:
Informational memo, no action requested at this time.
Background Information
Hastings has PFAS contamination all six of our municipal wells (specifically PFOA in all six
wells and PFOS in two wells) in In anticipation of required mitigation of the PFAS
contamination, the City has emphasized communication and transparency for the public.
Key Update
EPA Limits: Last year the EPA announced draft maximum contaminant levels for PFOA and
PFOS. The final MCL’s were released 4/10/2024 at 4 parts per trillion for both PFOA and PFOS.
This included five of the City’s six wells and the Hastings Veterans Home being over the new
MCL. According to the EPA, “Systems that detect PFAS above the new standards will have five
years to implement solutions that reduce PFAS in their drinking water.”
This starts the clock for the City to do two things:
1. Notify the public that PFAS in the drinking water exceeds the MCLs. This is
consistent with our long-standing emphasis on communication and transparency. We
immediately issued a press release; replied to multiple TV, newspaper, and radio
interviews; used social media; and mailed direct notice to water customers. Most
important, MDH and MPCA have committed to a public neighborhood meeting for
Hastings residents within a month. We are presently scheduling this meeting and will
publicize it as details are finalized.
2. Mitigate the PFAS within five years. This is a $68.9M project that would construct
three water treatment plants to remove PFAS and nitrates from municipal drinking water,
as well as connection of the Hastings Veterans Home to the City water system. The
project is currently being designed through a grant. Except for the money, this project is
X-E-02
shovel ready to begin as soon as summer 2024. We are actively pursuing potential
funding opportunities.
