12.1.2020 Finance Meeting Minutes

Posted on by

Called To Order

President Carlsrud called the meeting to order at 3:31 PM.

Roll Call

Members present: President Carlsrud, Commissioner Magnuson, Commissioner Bishop, Commissioner Erickson, and Commissioner Gulmon.

Others present: City Administrator Crawford, City Attorney Martineck, Finance Director Richter, Deputy Auditor Klein, Public Works Accountant/Manager Jacobson, City Assessor Hansen, Police Chief Hatcher, Chad Petersen from KLJ, Wade Hesch, Gloria Swart, Clint Klemisch(3:50).

1.  Department Reports:

            Wade Hesch reported water tower inspections took place this last month.  Inside the stand pipe they found caulking debris from the seams.   Those will need to be resealed.  There doesn’t seem to be any leaking right now.  The NW tower west of Dairy Queen is in poor shape inside.  It will need some refurbishing.  That will need to be taken off line for a couple of weeks and probably move those people to the stand pipe.  The Water Plant had its membrane replacement finished and is on track and running fine.  We will have Stew from Water Smith do some test drilling to see if there is a more productive spot for a well.

            Fire Chief Magnuson reported they are not doing any drills due to COVID and they are doing what they can to keep everyone safe while maintaining safe distances when possible.  The FD, Rescue and City Crew worked together to remove a log and some branches from the river.  It has been a nuisance previously and the removal went well.   

            Clint Klemisch reported the Superintendent for the diving team was very concerned with the NW water tower.  They gave a timeframe of 2-3 years before failure so this will need to be put on the hot list.  The inert cell should be wrapped up in about a week.  We have been participating in the waste water COVID testing with the Health Department.   We received the chemical to finish the winterization of fire hydrants this week.

            Police Chief Hatcher stated they are starting to do some work with the policy and procedure manual. Other than that just trying to stay healthy.

            Gloria Swart reported they are still trying to get everybody to comply with the two 32 gallon cans and to encourage recycling so there isn’t as much to haul to Fargo.

2.  Review monthly bills/reports.

Finance Director Richter reported $1.4 million in bills for the month.  Interest payments for bonds. PFP we aren’t having as much this time of year but it is around $70,000.  We also had about $70,000 that we paid to Economic Development that was requested at the last meeting.  Construction projects we had about $260,000 paid out.  The rest is operating expenses we have every month.

3.  Review proposed Public Works Capital and Operating Budgets for FY21.

            Public Works Manager Jacobson explained the breakdown of the capital budget and     summarized the operations budget.

4.  Discuss 2021 Application to Operate Mobile Home Park for

            a. Rockwater LLC

            b. Richard Plecity Trailer Court

            City Administrator Crawford reported Richard Pelcity Trailer Court should only have 3 lots     listed but since their State license shows 5 it will remain at 5.  We’ll be adding a line asking for the State license on our applications. With Rockwater there were concerns with some of the trailer homes in that park and if they are    still suitable and some of the junk that is laying around there.  The trailer that had the fire will be moved within the next couple of weeks.

City Attorney Martineck stated the thought was to create a list of needs in those areas, send it out and see what kind of reaction we get and the steps to take following.

5.  Discuss State Water Commission Agreement for Cost Share Reimbursement for Mill Dam. 

            Chad Petersen from KLJ reported that last spring this was presented to the Commission.  After that meeting the cost share request was submitted to the SWC in April.  That was on the timeline when the requests were being tabled due to the funding at that level.  It has now been brought back forward.  Total estimated cost is $99,500 and this type of project is funded at 75/25%. Local cost share amount would be $74,625.  This is on the meeting tonight for action.

6.  City County Health Cost share

            President Carlsrud stated the CCH put a program together for the mask mandate along with estimated costs and requested the City help with some of the costs.

            Commissioner Gulmon stated some of the requested funds were to assist with the marketing costs before the Governor came out with the state mandate.  Would there be a need for that now?

            City Administrator Crawford also added that Blake Crosby from NDLC was contacted and informed us that no additional funds other than what was already received would be sent to help with the costs.

            Consensus is to help with $1200 for kits.

Adjourn

The meeting was adjourned at ­4:55 PM.

Hello Everyone,

  • Good News:  Last year at this time our snow removal costs were about $60,000 over budget.  Not this year!
  • Pretty Good News:  In the 30-days during Governor Burgum’s Mask Mandate and other guidelines, North Dakota’s COVID numbers have been reduced. Thirty days went pretty fast and results were significant. Congratulations to you all as we are in this together and “thank you”. 
  • The other day I met with Bill Carlblom, Chairman of the Barnes County Commission, Josh Johnson, VCPS Superintendent and Al LaFave, VCSU President.  The monthly scheduled meetings are to share events in each of the areas and offer ideas for where we might partner. 
  • VCSU and VCPS have partnered to provide VCPS Students opportunities to earn dual credits and VCSU Students can student teach and do practicums.  It is a great collaboration benefitting all.  Congratulations and “thank you”.
  • While walking around town this past week, I have noticed more “lights of the season” are decorating homes, trees and shrubs.  Thank you, they are beautiful and help bring us some serenity.
  • Because it is important, I urge you again to please recycle cardboard.  Recycling is free, but cardboard in the garbage costs all of us as we pay for disposal.  Please recycle.  Thank you.

 “We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.”   (Martin Luther King Jr.)                                                   

Blessings, Pray, Be Safe and Be Kind,

Dave

Ordinance

1.  Approve first reading of Ordinance No. 1067, an Ordinance creating and enacting Section 19-01-08 of Valley City Municipal Code re penalty for violation of City emergency orders. (City Attorney Martineck)

City Attorney Martineck stated our emergency declaration ordinance lacks a penalty clause.  This would allow the city to enforce the emergency orders that are in place.  Recommendation violation of any emergency order now or in the future would be an infraction with a maximum penalty of $1,000.

Commissioner Gulmon motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Bishop.  Motion carried.

2.  Approve first reading of Ordinance No. 1068, an Ordinance Amending and Reenacting Sections 8-06-07 and 8-06-12 of the Valley City Municipal Code, related to removal of stumps and renewal of licenses.  (City Attorney Martineck)

City Attorney Martineck stated it was recommended earlier this year that some changes be made to the ORD.  The first change would be when a tree is removed the stump has to be removed within three weeks.  There would be consequences for any licensed tree remover failed to comply.  They could lose their license, suspend or not renew for the following year.

Commissioner Bishop motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Erickson.  Motion carried.

New Business

1.  Approve Small Projects Funding for Oct. 1, 2020-September 30th, 2021- $20,000. (Jennifer Feist)

Jennifer Feist stated we use these dollars to help pay for taxes and special assessments.  The balance is then used for new projects and a little bit of maintenance.

Commissioner Gulmon motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Magnuson.  Motion carried.

2.  Approve Resource Development Specialist – Funding Increase – $4,000.  (Jennifer Feist)

Jennifer Feist stated we typically secure for 3 years at a time.  This is the last year for that time frame and we would like an increase.  We will look at the next three years when we get a little closer to that time.

Commissioner Bishop motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Gulmon.  Motion carried.

3.  Approve R&R Coordinator – Funding Increase – $10,000/year for two years.  (Jennifer Feist)

Jennifer Feist stated this is a recruiting and retention position.  This has been funded internally for the first two and a half years to make sure it is a valuable position and people would use it. It has proven very valuable and companies are wanting and needing.  We have had significant changes with the overhead, specifically we are adding healthcare benefits for this position.

Commissioner Bishop motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Gulmon.  Motion carried.

4.  Consider Accepting Project No. UGP-SU-2-990(057), PCN 22043-CPR-Streetscape Phase I – Central Ave N.  (KLJ)

Chad Petersen from KLJ this project was completed in 2019.  A final review was completed last fall with the NDDOT and city representatives.  All work has been completed and as a final project close out for the NDDOT the city needs to accept the project.

Commissioner Magnuson motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Gulmon.  Motion carried.

5.  Consider Accepting Project No. SU-SS-2-990(053)057, PCN 21095 – Storm Sewer Improvement District No. 50 (KLJ)

Chad Petersen from KLJ stated this project was an NDDOT Urban Roads project finished in 2019.  A final inspection has been completed.  In order to close out the project we need the City to accept it.

Commissioner Gulmon motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Bishop.  Motion carried.

6.  Approve City Engineer Selection Committee Final Report.  (City Administrator Crawford)

The City created a description of the proposed project and prepared a formal invitation to the firms that submitted.  The City determined that three were entitled to interviews based on the qualifications.  The firms were all asked the same questions and ranked based on the responses.  KLJ/Moore Partnership was ranked number one.  From here if approved the City commences with negotiations.  If we are unable to come to an agreeable contract we would move to the second party. 

Commissioner Erickson commented that he feels KLJ should be taken out of it for number 9 (regarding the willingness to forego submitting RFP/Q’s for City projects).  He feels there will be conflict of interest if they are the City Engineer and doing the projects.

Commissioner Magnuson stated he is finding it difficult to spend the money on any firm to hire as a consultant to tell us what needs to be done.  There is a way to request RFP/Q’s the same way we are doing on 6th street.

Commissioner Bishop questioned if the building inspecting fees were passed on to the person building.

City Attorney Martineck stated the City recently passed a resolution allowing those fees to be passed on to the builder for commercial projects.  On residential we still see the costs.

Commissioner Gulmon motioned to approve, seconded by President Carlsrud.

Roll Call: Magnuson-aye          Bishop-nay      Gulmon-aye     Erickson-nay    Carlsrud-aye

Motioned carried.

Next steps will be to assemble a negotiation and set up a meeting with KLJ and Moore reps.

7.  Discuss Mask Plan Emergency Order.  (President Carlsrud)

President Carlsrud stated one of the discussions was going to be to address the penalty but that was already done so this can be a discussion for anything related to the mask mandate.

City Administrator Crawford commented on the committee that was formed for the large group events stating the committee is fine but the final decision should still be brought in front of the Commission.

President Carlsrud requested City Administrator Crawford develop a form based on the questions they have seen come through and see where it goes from there.

City Administrator Crawford also mentioned with the mandate that we can be stricter but not more lenient so with the Governors changes to the emergency we need to decide what we want to do.

Commissioner Gulmon motioned to follow the Governor’s order.

City Attorney Martineck stated he would draft an amendment to the emergency order.

Commissioner Erickson motioned to abide by the Commissioner’s orders and amend the agenda, seconded by Commissioner Bishop.  Motion carried.

President Carlsrud stated in a previous discussion it was mentioned partnering with City County Health on sharing expenses on the campaign for the masking but since that time we have the Governor’s order.  That has changed some of the necessity for the marketing.

Commissioner Bishop questioned if the Governor was going to help with the funding to advertise.

Finance Director Richter stated she was not aware of any additional funding being available.

President Carlsrud stated he support collaborating with the CCH but feels the numbers need to be reevaluated due to the recent changes.

8.  Discuss Liquor Licenses.  (Commissioner Magnuson)

Commissioner Magnuson stated he was asked due to the recent deduction in capacity and earlier closings if the City would be willing to waive the liquor license for the remainder of the year.

Commissioner Magnuson motioned to forgo the second half of the liquor licenses for bars and restaurants excluding off sales, Commissioner Gulmon seconded.

President Carlsrud asked if there was any thought regarding as previously mentioned waiving a portion.

Commissioner Magnuson amended his original motion to reflect waiving half of the second installment, seconded by Commissioner Gulmon.

Motion passed.

9.  Approve Preliminary Engineering Reimbursement Agreement with NDDOT (Project No. NHU-2-094(175)928, West I-94 Business Loop hill slide).  (City Administrator Crawford)

City Administrator Crawford stated the cost will be about $1 million broken down as $809,300 federal, $90,700 state and our local share would be $100,000.  We have to sign the agreement going forward stating we will take care of our local share.  If we backed out of the agreement we would be responsible for the DOT share along with our portion.

Commissioner Bishop motioned to approve, seconded by Commissioner Magnuson.  Motion carried.

10.  Approve Tobacco Permit for Loves Travel Stop & Country Stores, Inc.  (Finance Director Richter)

Finance Director Richter stated we are allowed to have 14 tobacco licenses in town, Love’s would be the 14th due to Shopko closing.  They have submitted the application but no payment.

Commissioner Magnuson motioned to approve pending payment, seconded by Commissioner Gulmon.  Motion carried.

City Administrator’s Report

City Administrator Crawford stated evaluations will be completed on the anniversary dates of the employees.

Tina is working on a recycling campaign.

December 15th the metal recycling bin will be moved across from the City Dump.

City Updates & Commission Reports

Public Works Manager Gary Jacobson sated he will be setting up meeting with the portfolio holders for the Public Works budget so that can be on the Finance agenda.

Police Chief Hatcher stated Brandi has been out and about, there have been a lot of vehicles out on the street and she is working on getting them cleaned up.  Several of the big projects we have had are getting cleaned u, some of the other properties are coming up on their 30 days so we will be counting on the city crew to help with those if needed.  If you see junk piling up on the street or properties give the Police Department a call.

Commissioner Gulmon thanked Theresa and staff at City County Health for providing the assistant to the community and council for us.  Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.

Commissioner Erickson commented for everyone to be safe and wear your mask.

Commissioner Bishop wishing everybody a happy and blessed Thanksgiving and stated to be safe. 

Commissioner Magnuson stated to have blessed Thanksgiving and wear your mask.  We still have some beautiful days so get out and walk.

Hi Everyone,

  • Heartfelt:  A “Blue Christmas Tree” in Veterans Park on Main Street is decorated with blue lights in remembrance of community members who died this past year.  Those who carry grief with them in this season are invited to visit the tree, be sad, be grateful be prayerful, and remember those you loved.  Sponsors are: The Barnes County Ministerial Association, Oliver-Nathan Funeral Chapel, and Lerud-Schuldt-Mathias Funeral Home.  Thank you all.
  • There seems to be more walkers and joggers out around town enjoying the nice weather.  Please remember to face traffic when running or walking, wear bright colors and reflective gear for protection from distracted drivers.
  • Thank you to all you motorists who have been stopping for pedestrians at intersections. 
  • COVID is really raising havoc around our country and our county.  Our positive cases per10K are about 100.  This is pretty high so please protect yourself and others.       Mask-UP in respect for those you are near.
  • That we are a relatively small community in a smaller county in a smaller state, we need to work together for success.   So, kudos to Valley City Public Works and NDDOT as the two partnered to clean the ditch plugged by erosion from Exit 290 south towards the Landfill.  Great job everyone & thank you.
  • Religious Faiths recognize a number of holidays this time of the year.  Some traditions include illuminated decorations.  Light can help our behavioral health too so if you have a little urge to display some holiday lighting, please do.  You may help someone feel better, maybe you as well.
  • PLEASE RECYCLE CARDBOARD:  Cardboard thrown in the garbage costs ALL CITIZENS as we must pay for landfill disposal.  Please recycle all you can, especially cardboard.  Thank you.

“It’s not the load that breaks you down, it’s the way you carry it.”                               (Lou Holtz)                                                   

Blessings, Pray and Be Safe,

Dave

Hello Folks,

  • Act of Valor:  Our Police and Fire Departments were called to the scene where there was a person in the river.  A number of citizens and a police officer utilized a rescue disc to help the person from the icy water.  Thank you everyone and watch for details.
  • We have 143 active cases as of today’s report, slightly fewer than last week at this time.  Keep up your good work, *masking up works!  Thank you.
  • I hope you were able to be uptown Saturday to “Shop Small”.   Small shops have so many unique items, it is just fun to shop them.  Go downtown and look through our local stores.  “Shop Local”.
  • Our weather is cooling some though there is no snow or ice so it is still fun to get out and enjoy some fresh air and exercise.  With the wonderful cold weather clothing available, being outside can be comfortable. 
  • Please Recycle:  Cardboard thrown in the garbage costs ALL CITIZENS money as landfill disposal costs us.  Please recycle all you can, especially cardboard.  Thank you.
  • Our City County Health Department has Mask-UP Kits with signage available for use in your building(s).  Please call CCHD at 845-8518.
