Werner and City Council Members Hastings City Hall 101 East Fourth Street Hastings, MN 55033 Re: Final Payment - Hastings Family Aquatic Center Dear Mayor and City Council Members: The city council is being asked to approve the final payment in the amount of$18,546.06 to A & L Construction for the construction of the Hastings Family Aquatic Center. Backeround: The city has withheld $21,915.06 due under the construction contract with A & L for the construction ofthe pool bathhouse and sidewalk. The city held on to this money pending the resolution of some disputes about the quality work with respects to the bathhouse and sidewalk. On December 15,2000, Marty McNamara, Bill Mesaros and I met with representatives from A. & L Construction to try to resolve the issues with the construction quality and the payment of the retainage. We have reached a proposed settlement ofthis matter that we can recommend to the city council. Summarv of recommendation: The city has withheld from A & L Construction $21,915.06 which is due under the construction contract. A summary ofthe proposed resolution is as follows: Retainage held Add for change orders Deduction for roof Deduction for sidewalk Deduction for fill $21,915.06 +$3,631.00 - $3,000.00 - $2,000.00 - $2.000.00 Retainage paid to A & L Contribution from architect for bathhouse $18,546.06 - $3.631.00 Net payment by city from retainage $14,915.06 * Also admitted to practice in Wisconsin Cha"fle Orders: A& L was asked to put in several items that were required but were not put in the construction drawings. The agreed upon price for these change orders is $3,631.00. The architect for the bathhouse has agreed to pay for these change orders because it was their oversight that caused these change orders. These change orders will not cost the city anything. Roof: When the roof was constructed on the bathhouse, some roof sheathing was allowed to get wet. This resulted in some of the sheathing panels on the west roofto become uneven. This unevenness does not effect the structural integrity of the roof in any way. Architect Tim Gremmer and Bill Mesaros agreed the roofis structurally sound, functional and meets all code requirements. The unevenness is a workmanship matter. Originally, Mr. Gremmer recommended the city retain $3,000.00 for the lower quality of workmanship on those parts ofthe roofthat have some deflection. A & L is willing to have $3,000.00 deducted from the retainage for this lower quality of work. Sidewalk: When portions of the concrete sidewalk on the west side of the bathhouse were poured, it began to rain and some of the concrete panels were not properly covered. As a result, some of the panels have a rough surface which could require them to be replaced earlier than otherwise would be expected. A & L has agreed to accept a $2,000.00 deduction from the retainage to offset for a possible shorter life expectancy of those concrete panels. Fill: City crews were used to provide some fill to the site in the spring of 1999. This fill was needed to grade the site. A & L was required to provide this fill under the contract. It appears that no records were kept by the city of how many loads offill it provided. A & L has agreed to accept a $2,000.00 deduction from the retainage to compensate the city for the fill that it provided. Liquidated damafJes: The contract required A & L to substantially complete its work by May 21,1999. The contract provided for liquidated damages of$500.00 per day for each day beyond May 21, 1999 that the pool was not substantially completed. A & L did not substantially complete its work until June 10, 1999. Under the contract, this would call for liquidated damages of $10,000.00. It is recommended the city agree not to pursue liquidated damages against A & L. The contractor responsible for putting in the pool also did not meet its deadline. The city had previously agreed not to pursue liquidated damages against that contractor. Also, Mr. Gremmer had earlier recommended to the city council that it not impose liquidated damages on A & L. Staff recommends that the city agrees to not impose liquidated damages on A & L as part of this settlement. Conclusio,,: It is recommended that the city council approve a final payment to A & L Construction in the amount of $18,546.06 as a final settlement of any monetary claims either party has against the other and authorize the mayor and city clerk to sign appropriate settlement documents. City staff will also obtain contribution from the architects in the amount of$3,631.00. If any council members have questions regarding this prior to the council meeting please feel free to call me.

I also have experience in a series of projects that have ranged frorn planning a collaborative connection with the New Science Museum of Minnesota and Como Park Elernentary school, and developing a teaching relationship with them, on our site; to a community effort with the Upper Swede Hollow Neighborhoods Association, and the Community Design Center on St. Paul's East Side in submitting a grant application to the McKnight Foundation to incorporate connecting the environment and the East Side to the school's Science curriculurn, and the State of Minnesota's Graduation Standards. On a local level I have: - NRRC experience - 5 years - Present at meetings regarding the City of Hastings Comprehensive Plan. - have experience in planning and developing Parks and Rec budget, and am somewhat familiar with that governmental process. - School Administrator - 30 years - Worked with township government in a coordinated black topping effort for 2.5 miles of township gravel road, - Studied and researched much of the current effort for bike path under the Vermillion Street bridge, (U.S. 61, and County road 47,) - User of parks I trai Is and city natural resources. - Hastings resident for 24 years. - Acted as general contractor in construction of my personal home, - Held various leadership positions with local organizations - currently president of Our Saviour I S Lutheran Church. - Comfortable addressing-groups of people. - Have had over 100 Hours of training in how to facilitate meetings with small groups. - Have authored many self evaluations, and self evalucrtio.n instruments for schools and school districts.

Date: December 13; 2000 From: Keitht. Estenson Re: City dfHastings Planning Commission Application For Appointment Statement When I was a kid growing up .in the township of lover Grove Heights, Hastings was the distant town. where my cousins. lived. Today, because -of the rapidly expanding. developing ring of the Twin Cities, . Hastings is justa short commute to the Twin Gities. After living out West for fifteen. years, and returning to Minnesota, my family and I chose to. live in. Hastings because Hastings afforded us the small town quality of tife that we are acciJstomed"to. I am interested in serving on the Planning Commission for several reasons: 1) as a resident of Hastings, I am interested in the community development issues of Hastings; 2) serving on the City of Hastings Planning Commission is an opportunity to "give back" to my community; and, 3) being a member of the Planning Commission will give me a better understanding of the planning and zoning process., experience that will help guide my business activities in Hastings and other communities. My background is diverse and will contribute to my ability to serve as a Planning Commissioner. I have a degree in petroleum engineering with five years experience in oil and gas production operations and project management. Major responsibilities included performing economic studies to optimize production and reduce operating costs, managing remedial projects, coordinating with foremen and contractors, and complying with state and federal policy (North Dakota Industrial Commission, BLM, USFS). I have five years experience as an environmental regulator for the Wyomin.g Department of Environmental Quality. My responsibilities as a Senior Environmental Analyst were to review construction permit applicatidns for water and wastewater projects,inspect permittedfaciHties, prepare enforcement action documentation, respond to the public regarding water quality issues, and to process follow~up spill reports and complaints. My responsibilities as a Groundwater Pollution Contro/District Supervisor were to evaluate groundwater pollution prevention and remediation systems and groundwater contaminant investigations, review and evaluate construction plans, conduct field investigations, and provide technical assistance and education to the public. I am currently developing a business as asmaH buHder of speculative homes. The business utilizes my. background in project management and my inter.estsin construction. I have successMly completed the Minnesota Residential Contractor. Licensing Exam, license pending. My market is the developing ring of Dakota-County, including Hastings. This is a potential conflict of interest to the responsibilities of the Planning Commission, except that my focus Will be on infill properties and properties within "open" developments, both of which are scarce within the City of Hastings.

Coming from a family that had been very active in local government meant that issues going on in Hastings were always a topic of discussion. That is where my interest in Local Government started but because I was a member of the Military I was restricted in how active I could be. Now that I am retiring from the Army and can participate freely I am applying for a position on the Planning Commission. I believe my years of experience in planning and executing military missions has given me the ability to seethe big picture as well as all the little pieces that make up that picture. My leadership experience has also taught me the value ofteam.work and I feel I will be an asset to the Planning Commission team. i'Exhibi t A" ReeaMd DEe 0 7 2006 CITY Of HAS11NQS CITY OF HASTINGS PLANNING COMMISSION APPLICATION FOR APPOINTMENT Name 3/e '''tV fl..

Respected City Council Members: I believe that I am a viable candidate to serve as a commissioner on the Hastings Planning Commission based on the following reasons: · As a life-long and active community member, I possess knowledge of the history of Hastings. As a resident, providing the highest "quality of life" possible in Hastings is always at the forefront of my thinking. , . · I am well connected with the community through various business, civic and social activities that I have been involved with over the years. This aspect will assist in seeking valuable planning input from citizens and organizations. · I care about the direction of this community. It is where my family has decided to stay and raise our family. I want to assist in ensuring that the community will continue to grow in a positive manner. I hold a B.A. in Youth Ministry from St. Mary's College (now University) in Winona, MN. My experiences as a youth minister provided me the opportunity to learn how to listen to people more carefully and to provide ways to meet the needs of those people. These skills I believe are essential for the position. In 1996, my career path changed as I entered the sales field. I currently direct the sales and marketing efforts for rewards-at-work.com which is a small and medium market product offered by Anderson Performance Improvement. Our company assists other businesses in developing ways to improve their performance, production and profits. To do this, analyzing the facts, assessing the needs and creating a plan for long-term stability and growth is necessary. These planning skills will be a vital asset that I can offer to the commission and the community of Hastings. I have served the community in the following capacities: · Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors · Rivertown Days Committee · Hastings Hawks Amateur Baseball Board of Directors o President o Scoreboard Project Chairperson o . Secretary . Knights of Columbus Council #1600 o Advocate (by-laws and legal) o Youth Activities Director 1996 - 1999 1996 - 1999 1994 - Present 1999.- 2000 1998 - 1999 1997 - 1998 1988 - Present 2000 2000 I am willing to accept the responsibilities described in the attached "Exhibit B" and openly embrace the opportunity to serve the community of Hastings as a commissioner on the Hastings Planning Commission.

MEMBERS ROLES: 1. The Commission work covers a' broad range of issues. While many issues must be acted on quickly I others are very involved . project issues and take time to carry on to completion.

Assignment to these groups is voluntary. Perhaps the most s1gnificant re~pGnsibility the'members have is to keep an open mind'. to all issues. Listening I learning and discussion of issues are important quaiities of commissioners. Decision making should be based on information gathered and what can be seen as working towards the betterment of the city. Maintaining objectivity in the face of special interest groups is often difficult, but essential for a balanced-approach to economic'development.

However, personal viewpoints are not to be represented to outside organizations/individuals as being of the Commission, the City or the City departments.

Werner and City Council Members Hastings City Hall 101 East Fourth Street Hastings, MN 55033 Re: Rivers Grill & Bar and Short Stop Liquor - Alcohol Sale Violations Dear Mayor and City Council Members: At the December 4, 2000 city council meeting, the council directed that a hearing be held at the January 2,2001 council meeting to determine if an illegal liquor sale took place at Rivers Grill & Bar and Short Stop Liquor on October 25, 2000. If the city council determines that an illegal liquor sale took place at either or both of these establishments, the next question for the council's consideration is what action, if any, it should take against the liquor license held by each establishment. Backeround: On October 25, 2000, the Hastings Police Department conducted alcohol compliance checks at various alcohol licensed establishments in the city. These alcohol compliance checks were conducted by the Hastings Police Department. At both Rivers Grill & Bar and Short Stop Liquor, an underage individual, cooperating with the Hastings Police Department, went into the establishments and was able to purchase alcohol. Neither employee asked the underage individual for any form of identification. The employee also did not ask the individual for their age or date of birth. These transactions were witnessed by Officer Hicks and Officer Puch of the Hastings Police Department who were conducting the compliance checks. History of Past Violations: This is Rivers Grill & Bar second violation in approximately seven months. The first violation occurred in March, 2000. As you may recall, Mike Anderson, the liquor license holder addressed the city council at the December 4, 2000 council meeting and explained that the first violation occurred just a few days after they had bought the establishment. With respect to Short Stop Liquor, this is their second violation in the previous twenty-three months. They were last caught making an illegal liquor sale in November, 1998. * Also admitted to practice in Wisconsin Procedure: This hearing should be conducted using the following procedure. Since one of the possible penalties the council could impose is a license suspension, it is necessary to give the license holder an opportunity to be heard by the city council. Officer Hicks and Officer Puch will also be at the city council to answer any questions the councilor the liquor license holder may have. After the license holder addresses the council on the violation, the council should feel free to ask the liquor license holder, or their representative any questions. Likewise, if the liquor license holder has any questions of the officers they will be able to ask those questions at the hearing. Once the evidence has been presented, the council will need to decide first if an illegal sale of alcoholic beverages took place at each establishment. If the council does not believe that an illegal liquor sale took place, then no further action is required of the council. If the council does believe an illegal liquor sale took place, then the council will need to decide what penalty, if any, it will impose for that violation. Under the guidelines adopted by the city council at the December 4,2000 meeting, Rivers Grill & Bar would be looking at a possible $750 civil penalty and a two day license suspension which will occur on a Thursday and Friday selected by the city council. With respects to Short Stop Liquor, this would be their second offense within 24 months and they would be looking at the same possible penalty. I am sending a copy of this letter to the liquor license holders for both entities so they are aware of the proposed procedure for this hearing. If any council members have questions prior to the council meeting, please feel free to call me. Very truly yours, FLUEGEL & MOYNIHAN P.A. Shawn M.

Three sites were considered as options: 1. Relocate and expand at the current public works facility on Progress Drive. 2. Purchase the existing UBC building on east 4th street and modify to meet the needs of the parks department and other city departments. 3. Expand at the present park site at 920 west lOth street As this study progressed the option to expand at the existing Parks Garage site was analyzed further. The central location of the site was a primary consideration. The problem was that in order to expand at the existing site the city did not want to disturb the existing neighborhood with more traffic and other concerns such as noise from equipment and employees. An option was to gain an additional access that being to highway 55 through school district property. Staff contacted school district staff about the possibility of gaining access to highway 55 and as part of this discussion asked if the school district would be interested in constructing a joint maintenance facility. The school district was interested in considering this possibility and TKDA was hired to pursue this option. TKDA met with school district and city staff to determine their future needs to determine if it was feasible to expand at the site to meet these needs. While this study was being initiated staff brought this option of a Joint Maintenance Facility to the Joint Powers Committee for their reaction. Council representatives Paul Hicks, Lynn Moratzka, and Ed Riveness informed the joint powers that the city was moving forward to address the need for more space for the parks maintenance department regardless on the school districts involvement but felt that the joint maintenance facility was an option that should be considered. The Joint Powers supported the joint facility and appointed a sub-committee to meet with TKDA and both school and city maintenance staff to determine their space needs and the benefits and problems associated with a joint facility. TKDA, school maintenance staff and the city parks staff presented the following information to the Joint Powers sub-committee on Monday, November 13,2000: PROPOSED JOINT MAINTENANCE FACILITY 1. Equipment storage space would be occupied with 60% city, 40% school district equipment. 2. Full-time stafflocated at the facility 7 city staff,S school district. 3. The intent would be that both groups would use all equipment. 4. Employees would remain separate, but employees could have work assignments that could be performed on both properties. 5. Equipment and supplies could be purchased and used jointly. BENEFITS 1. Elimination of one mower, which would cost $18,000 new. 2. Elimination of a current turf sprayer & Cushman cart, purchased new $24,000. 3. Elimination of welder, floor jack and other small equipment. 4. Efficiencies of all equipment located in one area, savings of time spent transporting equipment. Also, the ability to maintain equipment in one area with all supplies being available. 5. Efficiency of having fuel both gas and diesel for equipment use. 6. The ability to establish maintenance standards equal for athletic associations. 7. The ability to share clerical staff. 8.

Lori contacted Springsted, the City's financial advisor and Springsted provided the attached bonding information (please see bonding info.). Dave Osberg and Wayne Haugen participated in a joint meeting on Tuesday, November 28, 2000 to meet with the following employees: Greg Mcgree, Steve Yanz, Kari Schmitt, Kathy Rink, Joel Whitehurst, Lee Erickson, Kevin Smith, Jim Cernohous, John Stevens, Cory Likes and Marty McNamara. Some of the concerns that were expressed by the employees were the following: Wage difference- City employees make about $2.00 per hour more Number of bosses- if city employees were working on school property the lead worker would be a school district employee. If it were on city property the lead employee would be a city employee. Communications Work Hours Computer and Phone compatibility Equipment repair & maintenance responsibilities Dave and Wayne both thought that the meeting with the employees was beneficial and that both groups were positive with the joint venture. The above information was presented to the full Joint Powers Committee on Tuesday, December 5, 2000. The Joint Powers unanimously recommended the approval of the Joint Maintenance facility and that their recommendation be forwarded to the City Council and School Board for approval. MEMO To: Mayor & Council /:;/41& //l~ d~rn1 Ci u.-) From: 11artyvNIcNamara Subject: Bleachers Vets Park Baseball Field Date: December 27, 2000 The City of Hastings has been approved for a loan through the League of Minnesota Cities to upgrade the bleachers at Veterans Park Baseball field for $100,000. The loan is to be paid back within five years. The NRRC, in the 2001 budget, requested that the council approve $100,000 for bleachers at Vets baseball field, with the intent that the city would participate in the loan program through the League of Minnesota Cities and pay the $100,000 back with 3% interest over five years. At the NRRC meeting that was held on Tuesday, December 19,2000, Mr. Wayne Erickson of the Hastings Hawks, presented a plan to the commission to improve the bleachers, press box, dugouts and to construct a clubhouse underneath the bleachers at the baseball field at Veterans Park. The total estimated cost for these improvements was $270,000. Wayne Erickson informed the commission that if the city provided the $1-00,000, the baseball community could and would raise the remaining $170,000 for the project. The NRRC approved the plan provided that the baseball community raise $170,000. I will keep you informed on the fund raising efforts of the baseball community and if you have any questions please call me. ,A., / "- "x\., '''-, < "<~", ""J "- "-, , b ',,- "'" 1 ',/ · V" o ~ ~ f\ ',,- ',,- ',,- ',,- '''-, 3 0- W :::I! o :J: :E w ~ :E :) - -0 J< "'~ CJ'J o ..J W - U. ..J ..J <C ED ~ CJ'J ~ W t- ~ I ~ a.
