BE IT ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of Hastings as follows: ~ [ Section 1. Inasmuch as a portion of Block Three (3), Original Town of Hastings, according to recorded plat thereof is now being developed as a parking lot in accordance with the plan previously adopted, it is hereby declared that the provision of the plan for the downtown parking lot requiring that the landscape be relieved of overhead wiring where feasible, be carried out, in regard to the overhead electrical facilities of Northern States Power Company (hereinafter referred to as the Company) in accordance with [~I'!' the provisions of this ordinance. Section 2. All overhead electrical distribution lines and other electrical lines of the Company over the alley in Block Three (3) Original Town of Hastings, shall be placed underground during the next 90 day period. The Company has full discretion as to relocation of the electrical lines underground except that the Company will inform the City of all under- grounding plans and the City must be reasonable assured that said under- grounding is coordinated with alley and parking lot development and resur- facing and that the progress is sufficient to complete the undergrounding in accordance herewith. -' _L ._.~ _._. 1486 Existing overhead transmission lines existing through the present alley and the North one-half of Block Three (3), Original Town of Hastings, shall also be placed underground. Section 3. Inasmuch as such undergrounding requires a large out- lay of capital, it is reasonable that the Company receive at least partial contribution for its expenses from the benefited customers; and inasmuch as the customers must convert or adapt their electrical facilities to receive the new underground service, it is necessary to require them to provide, at their own expense, such new facilities before the overhead service is re- moved. It is hereby declared that the policy of the Company as established in its General Extensions Rules - Underground, Downtown Urban Renewal, is a fair and reasonable policy and shall be observed by customers of the Company. Before the Company begins construction of any sector of the underground work, the City will by letter inform the customers that, at the request of the City, the overhead electric facilities serving their building will be removed; that if they desire to continue receiving electric service after that date they must execute Company Form No. 0350-15 when contacted by the Company and, at their own expense, engage an electrician to convert or adapt their elect- rical facilities to accept services from the underground service which will be installed. The above mentioned Company Extension Rules and Form shall be on file with the City Clerk. This Ordinance will apply to amendments of said Extension Rules and Form when accepted for filing. The customers will provide the Company with such easements as are necessary for the Company to install underground distribution facilities on their property. ~ Section 4. Inasmuch as such underground facilities cannot be easily relocated, the City shall designate and reserve a definite area within the public ways for the installation and location of the Company's under- ground facilities. Once the Company facilities have been installed in such designated and reserved areas, if the City requires the Company to remove or relocate such facilities for any reason, the City shall reimburse the Company for the cost of such removal or relocation. Such reimbursement shall not exceed the entire cost incurred by Company attributable to such removal or relocation after deducting therefrom any increase in value of the new facility and any salvage value derived from the old facility.

He reported that a substantial number of the water connections were in a deteriorated condition. Further that many of them will be requiring replacement in the next several years. He further stated that it would be economically advisable at this time to replace the connections so that it will not be necessary to dig up the street when they do become inoperable. A general discussion occurred, the substance of which was that it would be appropriate for the city to, by change order to the contract, put in new connections for the persons requesting same with the replacements paid for from the funds available from bonding and the same reimbursed to the city along with the other special assessments costs, each property owner requesting the replacement to be assessed for the costs thereof which will be paid off over the next ten year with in- terest as with other assessments.

I L__ [ 1488 Mr. Raymond Cahill appeared before the Council and advised the Council that he and Joseph A.

He appeared for purpose of requesting the extension of these utilities to the property with the cost assessed against the property. It was noted that approximately 170 feet of sanitary sewer line would have to be installed. The Engineer stated that he had made a preliminary cost estimate which indicates that the total cost would be approximately $3,500. Mr. Cahill stated that he and his partner, were requesting that the City supervise the installation and pay therefore and charge, by special assessments, the premises for it with the cost to be paid with interest over a ten (10) year period pursuant to standard assessment procedures. It was noted at the time that there did not appear to be any other property benefited but that if some other property does benefit from the installation i~ the future, Mr. Cahill requested that a pro rata reim- bursement be accomplished. Whereupon a motion was duly made by Councilman Hallberg, seconded by Councilman Fischer as follows: That the City approve the installation of sanitary sewer and water to the property line of Lot 1, Block 4, Town of Yermil!ion.That the cost thereof, anticipated to be in the amount of $3,500, be paid from city funds. That if other funds are not avail- able that the required sum be withdrawn from the polution control monies re- ceived from the federal government and allocated to this purpose. Further that the cost of the project be assessed against the property, Lot 1, Block 4, Town of Vermillion and that the same with interest at 8% be paid over a ten (10) year period and that the cost be levied as a special assessment with the County Auditor as with other assessments. Upon being put to a vote the Following vote was recorded: Ayes, all; Nayes, none. The next item discussed was the possibility of establishing a Board of Appeals as provided for in Section 204 of the Uniform Building Code which is a part of the State Building Code and accordingly in force in this City. It was noted that the purpose of a Board of Appeals is to determine the suitability of alternate materials and methods of construction and to provide for reasonable interpretation of the provisions of the Code. It was further noted that the Board consists of five (5) members who are qualified by experience and training to pass upon matters pertaining to building con- struction. The building official is to serve as an ex-officio member and as secretary of the board. Further that the members of the Board are to be appointed by the Mayor and hold office at his pleasure. Further that the Board is to adopt reasonable rules and regulations for conducting its in- vestigation and is to render all decisions and findings in writing to the building official with a duplicate copy to the person appealing a decision and is also to make recommendations to the City Council for new legislation consistent with the code. The Mayor stated that it was his intention to appoint Mr. Glenn Erickson as a member of the Board of Appeals and as Chair- man thereof and he stated that he had discussed the matter with Mr. Erickson and Mr. Erickson was willing to so serve. The Mayor further requested that the two Councilmen from each of the wards meet and submit to him a proposed name for appointment to the Board of Appeals. Whereupon a motion was made by Councilman Collins, seconded by Councilman Schnirring that the Council go on record as favoring establishment of a Board of Appeals and concurs in the Mayor's appointment of Mr. Erickson as a member and Chairman of the Board and further that the City staff is to inquire into the exact procedures re- quired for establishment and implementation of the Board of Appeals. Upon being put to a vote, the following was recorded: Ayes, all; Nayes, none. A report was received from the City Engineer stating that property at 410 East 4th. Street was serviced by a private sewage system which was not operating adequately. The Engineer further noted that sanitary sewer is ad- jacent to the property and capable of connection with the house. Moved by Councilman Fischer, seconded by Councilman Kramer that the City Council hereby order the owner of property at 410 East 4th. Street (East one-half of Lot 2, Block 32, Town of Hastings) be required to attach the house to the sanitary sewer system of the City. Ayes, all; Nayes, none. Moved by Councilman Schnirring, seconded by Councilman O'Connor to approve the expenses of the Chief of Police and one officer to attend the Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Convention at Brainerd, Minn. June 22nd thru June 25th. Ayes, all; Nayes, none. 1489 The City Attorney stated that an earnest money contract had been entered into between the City and On The Main Corporation, owners of the property being developed for the downtown parking lot. The Owner had agreed to sell the property for $50,000, the sum previously authorized by the City Council. Authority to close the transaction was requested.
