MEDINA CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES OF JUNE 19, 2001
The City Council of Medina, Minnesota met in regular session on June 19, 2001 at 7:30 p.m. in
the City Hall Chambers. Mayor John Ferris presided.
Members present: Ferris, Lane, Smith, Workman, and Zietlow.
Members absent: None.
Also present: Police Chief Ed Belland, Attorney Ron Batty, Public Works Director Jim Dillman,
City Engineer Tom Kellogg, Planning & Zoning Administrator Loren Kohnen, and Administrator
Clerk -Treasurer Paul Robinson.
1. Additions to the Agenda
A. Approval for Hennepin County Fair Signs.
B. Letter regarding Medina Morningside Park.
C. Notice concerning a public hearing for a telecommunication tower in Plymouth.
D. Information request on the second -generation watershed management plans.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve the agenda as amended.
Motion passed unanimously.
2. Approval of the Minutes from June 5, 2001 Regular City Council Meeting
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Carolyn Smith, to approve the minutes as presented.
Motion passed unanimously.
3. Comments from Residents in Attendance on Items Not on the Agenda
Dale Gronberg, who lives on Hackamore Road, said that he had some storm sewer problems
related to the storm sewer that was going across his property, but also draining neighboring
properties and the City street. He said that he has been working with Jim Dillman on this issue
and was bringing this problem to the Council's attention to see if the City is willing to provide
some assistance to correct the problem.
Jim Dillman showed an overhead of the drain tile Mr. Gronberg was talking about. He showed
the area drained by this tile. He said, at this point, there is no City policy on how to handle
these issues. He said in this instance, as with others, this tile drains private property as well as
public property.
Ron Batty said the City should probably avoid getting into private matters, however, in this
instance, if there is both a public and private water issue, there is probably some responsibility
for the City to look into a potential solution.
Phil Zietlow asked what the solution would be.
Jim Dillman said that they would probably put in a 12 inch storm sewer pipe, and move it as
close to the lot line as possible.
There was some discussion about where the water was coming from.
Jim Dillman said that a significant part of the water drains off the northeast corner of the Wild
Meadows subdivision.

Jim Dillman showed overheads of other drain tiles in the City that may or may not need
improvements in the future. He said repairs to these tiles could range between $1,000 worth of
materials plus a days labor in the instance of Dale Gronberg's case, up to $80,000 or more.
Phil Zietlow said that there should be some shared responsibility between the City and the
property owners, since this is not just the City's problem.
Jim Lane asked Mr. Gronberg if he was willing to participate financially in a solution to his
problem.
Dale said that he would be willing to do the restoration work. He said 90 percent of the water
coming to his property is coming from other properties and the City road.
Carolyn Smith said that this property is the low spot in the area and as a part of purchasing a
property that is in the low area, you get the water.
Bruce Workman said he was concerned about setting a precedent with this issue. He said it's
not so bad when you are talking about one of the cheaper solutions, but what happens when we
come across one of the $80,000 ones. He was hoping that a solution to this problem does not
set a larger precedent.
Jim Lane asked if we had drainage easements or if the property owner was willing to give the
City a drainage and utility easement over his property.
Ron Batty thought that ending up with a drainage easement would be a good outcome and help
justify the public purpose of these improvements.
There was some interest in creating a policy before approving this improvement.
Phil Zietlow said that it looks like we are starting the basis for a policy right now. He said there
should be: shared costs between the City and the property owner; that this cost be determined
on a case by case basis; at a minimum the property owner takes care of the restoration work
after the City installs the storm sewer or drain tile; and, the City receives a drainage and utility
easement over the area.
The consensus of the Council was that, for now, this would work as the City's policy.
4. Park Commission Comments
Carolyn Smith said included in the information packet for the last week there was a letter from
Lori Karlik regarding improvements to Medina Morningside Park.
Phil Zietlow said that the Park Commission has looked at all the parks just recently.
Jim Dillman said Theresa Richey is a representative from Medina Morningside on the Park
Commission. He said that the Commission will be looking into replacement of the equipment
over the next year or so. He said that it is probably going to cost between $10,000 and $15,000
and since the Park Commission is a recommending body, this would ultimately be approved by
the City Council.

5. Planning Commission Comments
Loren Kohnen said we have the first full-blown application for new construction in the Urban
Commercial area on Tower Drive.
Robinson said that they are also looking to have the lighting ordinance ready for review at the
next Planning Commission meeting.
6. Activation of the Community Service Officer's License
Ed Belland said recently Mike Rouillard was injured in a motorcycle accident and has been out
now for about three weeks. He is still in a wheelchair and is not sure if and when he will be able
to return to work. Knowing this, Belland asked if he could start training Kevin Boecker to
become a Medina Police Officer. He said a couple of months ago the City did authorize a
conditional hiring offer for Kevin once he received his POST license.
Phil Zietlow asked what would happen if Mike comes back to work.
Ed Belland said that then Kevin's placement as a police officer would be put on hold.
Bruce Workman wondered why this needed Council approval at this time. If it is something that
needs to be done, why couldn't it be done just as a departmental matter.
Ed Belland said that since this may affect the budget it was brought to the City Council.
Moved by Bruce Workman, seconded by Jim Lane, to authorize the Police Chief to begin
training the CSO Kevin Boecker once he receives his POST license. Motion passed
unanimously.
7. Reserve Unit
Ed Belland said the reserves would like to be able to solicit donations to acquire some additional
equipment for the Police Department. This equipment would be used by the officers and the
reserves.
Bruce Workman said he is not concerned about setting up the fund for the donation, however,
he was concerned about having reserves solicit funds directly from people. He does not want
people to feel obligated to donate money to this fund.
Carolyn Smith said that $18,000 does not seem like a lot of money and that maybe the City
should consider just financing this directly out of the general fund.
Bruce Workman said that he is not opposed to having a completely voluntary fund. However,
he would approve this based on no one to one solicitation. There could be a letter sent out
asking for broad support, but nothing where it would be solicited directly.
Phil Zietlow thought that this was a great idea.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to set up a Reserve Equipment Fund, with
the stipulation that the reserves or the police officers do not solicit donations on a one to one
basis. Motion passed unanimously.

8. Approval of the Final Plat for the Ducharme Addition
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Bruce Workman, to adopt Resolution 01-33 Approving
the Ducharme Addition final plat. Motion passed unanimously.
9. Lot Combination for the Walters Addition
Loren Kohnen said that all the easements have been provided, that both the staff and the
Planning Commission recommended approval, and because this is a relatively simple plat, they
are asking that the City Council direct the City Attorney to draft both a preliminary and final plat
resolution for approval.
Ron Batty said they have not yet done the title work for this plat. However, he is comfortable
with the Council authorizing preparation of the resolution and that it be brought back to the
Council once the title work has been done satisfactorily.
Moved by Bruce Workman, seconded by Jim Lane, to direct the City Attorney to draft a
preliminary and final plat resolution approving the Walters Addition. Motion passed
unanimously.
10. Conditional Use Permit for JDS Marketing at 815 Tower Drive
Kohnen said that Jeff Deters, JDS Marketing, bought an existing building at 815 Tower Drive.
The building was formally the Cabinet People and they are requesting a conditional use permit
for a wholesale warehouse office.
Kohnen referenced the memos that were provided to the Planning Commission and the minutes
that were attached and included from the Planning Commission as well.
Kohnen said staff recommended approval as did the Planning Commission with the conditions
as provided.
Steve Deters said he would like the City Council to consider waiving the ordinance requirement
for trees. He said the rear of the property is currently wooded. There is a berm there, and he
does not want to pay $500 a tree for six ten to twelve foot evergreen trees along the back of the
property.
There was some discussion about the trees. In the end Council members were not interested in
waiving the landscaping requirements. Landscaping absorbs the sound and noise.
Landscaping of this type provides a year around screen versus the deciduous trees that are
currently there.
Ron Batty said there is one other issue that he would just like to have the City Council consider.
He said this is a stylistic issue concerning the item included in conditional use permits. He said
there has been a long history for the way it has been done, however, he is just going to offer
another way of doing it. He said that often times conditional use permits contain many
conditions, repeating items that are already included in the ordinance. He thought the Council
may want to consider a leaner and meaner type of style of conditional use permit that focused
on the requirements that were in addition to requirements already in the ordinance.
Jim Lane agreed, as did some other Council members.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001

Phil Zietlow thought it may be a good idea to simplify, however, he thought that in some cases it
clarified requirements that may or may not be in compliance today that need to be in compliance
in the future.
Lenny Leuer, Chairman of the Planning Commission, agreed. He said for some issues where
there was not compliance currently, that would be made to be brought into compliance, those
items would be included as a part of the conditions for the resolution.
There was some additional discussion about whether or not certain conditions needed to be
included within the conditional use permit. In the end, conditions 1-3 were included; lighting
needed to be down cast; that one additional tree needed to be provided into the southwest
corner of the parking lot; and a minimum of six 10 to 12 foot black hill spruce stagger 10 feet on
center needed to be provided on the south side of the lot.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Jim Lane, to authorize the City Attorney to draft a
resolution approving the conditional use permit with the conditions one through three. Motion
passed unanimously.
11. Ordinance Regulating the Rural Commercial Holding Zone
Robinson said this and the other items coming in succession are some of the final last steps in
implementing the Comprehensive Plan. He said that the Rural Commercial Holding Zone is an
area that was formally zoned Rural Commercial. He said the new ordinance combines portions
of the Rural Commercial Ordinance with the portions of the Urban Commercial Ordinance. He
said highlighted in his memo are several of the significant changes or issues that received the
most discussion at the Planning Commission.
The first one was uses that were not brought forward from the Rural Commercial ordinance.
There was some discussion regarding adult establishments. Adult establishments were allowed
in other districts, but were not brought forward to be allowed in this district.
The next item was how existing uses in the Rural Commercial Holding Zone would be treated as
a part of this ordinance.
Robinson went through the list of uses. He said that the impound lot was not necessarily an
allowed use in the old district and is not specifically mentioned in the new district. He said
based on the amount of outside storage, an impound lot would not be an allowed in the Rural
Commercial Holding Zone.
Robinson said agricultural uses were not allowed in the Rural Commercial Ordinance, nor in the
Rural Commercial Holding Zone area. He said that there are quite a number of properties that
do have agricultural use today. The consensus of the Council was to add agricultural land uses
as a permitted use in the Rural Commercial Holding Zone.
Robinson also mentioned that single family homes were not allowed in the Rural Commercial
nor in the Rural Commercial Holding Zones. There was no desire to add those to the Rural
Commercial Holding Zone.
John Ebert addressed the Council regarding the upgrade of County Road 19. He said that the
County's project would impact their property and the Doboszenski's property, and wanted to
make the Council aware of that impact as well as the possible impacts of this ordinance. He
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001
150
said he would recommend the Council hold off adopting this ordinance until something could be
figured out regarding the impact on the septic sites from the County Road 19 project.
There was some discussion regarding this. In the end Council members believed that the CR
19 project would not impact the ordinance and that the CR 19 issue needs to be worked out
between the City and the County outside of this ordinance.
Robinson said another change eliminated several water intensive uses that are allowed in the
Urban Commercial District. The RCH Ordinance also eliminated the size of warehousing space
since warehousing space does not require a lot of water for use and might be one of the uses
chosen to be constructed before sewer service is provided to this area.
Robinson said that commercial recreation was listed in the previous Rural Commercial District,
however, the Planning Commission choose to add the related items allowed in the Rural
Residential Urban Reserve District. These were outdoor recreation, golf courses and driving
ranges. The consensus of the Council was to keep the items as shown in the attached draft of
the RCH ordinance.
Robinson said that the wetland setback was the same as in the Business Park. The consensus
of the Council was to continue that.
The next item concerned the amount of time given to property owners to sanitary sewer, once
provided.
Robinson said that the current language in the ordinance was the Planning Commission's
recommendation. They recommended that properties be required to hook up when there is a
change in use, change in ownership, or it is determined that the septic system is failing.
Robinson said that staff would like to take one more shot at their recommendation, which was to
have it be a set period of time. Staff recommended one year.
Ron Batty said that it is fairly typical that Cities would require hooking up within one year.
Bruce Workman said that he was not necessarily concerned about the time, but that they are
assessed for the cost of the sewer when it was provided. The discussion amongst the Council
was that, in essence, most would then hook up. They agreed with staff to go one year or when
the septic system failed, change of ownership, or change in use, whichever occurred first.
The last item was that there was a section added for minor changes for conditional use.
Robinson said this was the first attempt at drafting a section allowing some conditional use
permits to be taken care of administratively. Since conditional uses are considered a more
intensive use, some of the thresholds allowing administrative action was lessened. At this time
the Council thought that it was a good start to leave it as drafted.
Moved by. Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve the Ordinance #337 RCH as
presented.
Jim Lane wanted to make sure there are no uses becoming non -conforming because of the
RCH Ordinance.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001
151
Robinson said Doboszenski's Restaurant and Catering Business, Big Woods Saloon, and
Mother's Motors Impound Lot were non -conforming under the current Rural Commercial
Ordinance and remain non -conforming in the RCH Ordinance. Motion passed unanimously.
12. Rural Residential Urban Reserve Ordinance
Robinson said included in the memo was a summary of the major changes. He said that some
of the uses from the Rural Residential District were not carried forward into the Urban
Residential District, such as churches and others. The consensus agreed with the Planning
Commission's modifications. The Commission also recommended that accessory uses should
be attached to a principal structure. For example, a barn, by itself, would not be allowed on a
40 acre parcel without a principal structure. He said another item not carried forward into the
Rural Residential Zone was the two homes would not be allowed on one 40-acre parcel. They
would have to subdivide in order to have two homes.
Non-commercial parks was taken out of the definition for recreation golf courses and driving
ranges, clarified the definition. The Commission changed the setbacks back to the same
setbacks that are in the Rural Residential District. Another issue concerned the calculation for
acres used for the ghost plat.
Robinson said that the ghost plat or overlay plat was required to be three units per acre so the
amount of acreages used would determine how many lots would be shown on the ghost plat.
The Commission added a definition for buildable area that included; open water, wetlands, right
of ways, and easements. In the drafts you have before you, easements were not included.
Robinson said that he forgot to include the rationale for not including that. Robinson said that if
the purpose is to come up with the least amount of acres possible, then you would want to
include easements. However, from sort of a logical standpoint, easements probably would not
be subtracted from the lot area that would be calculated from a practical matter.
In the end, the City Council decided to add in easements to that definition and also to change
the term ghost plat to overlay plat as defined in our ordinance.
Robinson said finally some additional setback restrictions for feed lots, animal raising from
wetlands and shoreland areas were added. The consensus of the Council was to approve that
change as well.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve the Rural Residential Urban
Reserve Ordinance #338. Motion passed unanimously.
Ron Batty said that in addition to the adoption of the two ordinances, two resolutions approving
publication of the Rural Commercial Holding Zone and Rural Residential Urban Reserve
ordinances by title and summary was included for Council approval.
Moved by Bruce Workman, seconded by Carolyn Smith, to pass Resolutions 01-34 & 01-35
authorizing publication by title and summary. Motion passed unanimously.
14. Rural Commercial Holding Zone
Robinson said that most of the discussion concerning this was already held during the
discussion on the ordinance.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Bruce Workman, to approve Ordinance #339 rezoning
the RCH as presented. Motion passed unanimously.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001
152
15. Rural Residential Urban Reserve
Robinson said, likewise, most of the discussion on this has already been taken care of as a part
of the ordinance.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve Ordinance #340 the rezoning
as presented. Motion passed unanimously.
16. Public/Semi-Public
Robinson said that there are a couple of issues wrapped up within this rezoning. He said for the
most, the majority of discussion about the rezoning had no direct impact on any changes,
however, there were two changes recommended by the Planning Commission. First was a
change from multi -family residential to public/semi public on the Rolling Green Country Club.
Robinson provided some background and history on this issue and said the Planning
Commission approved this change, but not by a unanimous vote
Robinson said when staff was working with the Planning Commission to update the
Comprehensive Plan a number of areas in the City where the zoning did not match the current
use were identified for changes in zoning. Robinson said he contacted the country club as a
part of this process and asked them if they had any plans on developing that property or if they
would mind if it were rezoned to public/semi public. They said they did not mind and had no
plans besides its current use. From that point there were a number of public hearings and
information meetings regarding the adoption of the comprehensive plan and this change. The
City never received any complaints.
Robinson said later we found out that Mr. Hendry had an option to purchase this property and
that changing the zoning of this property would be a dramatic change. Robinson said some
Planning Commissioners believed that there was a need in the City for some additional multi-
family residential areas and that this would not be a bad location. Other Planning
Commissioners that believed that this change had gone through a very long process and that
this would not be a good location for multi -family residential.
Robinson said that Mr. Hendry is here this evening and he can represent himself.
Bruce Hendry spoke. He gave some background to his ownership of the country club. He said
he helped the country club out back in 1982 when they ran into some financial problems. He
said at that point he received a 50 year option to develop a portion of the country club. He
explained some of the details of that option. In the end he said that he counted on the zoning of
this property for a long time. That is how the value of his option was determined. He said it has
been zoned MR for at least 19 years. He thought that it was a good property since it already
had access to City water, sewer, and gas. He also stated that the country club has the written
letters of support for keeping this property within the Multi -Family Residential Zoning District.
Hendry said that the value of his land as zoned MR has been appraised at around $1,046,000.
The value of his land with public/semi public is valued at $37,000.
Bruce Workman was concerned that the City would be getting into a negotiation process
between the country club and the property owner. He wanted to make sure that the decision
being made here was the best for the City.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001
153
Carolyn Smith said that staff would probably never had suggested a change on this property
had they talked to Bruce Hendry or had the country club told them that they would have
opposed that change.
Bruce Workman said that he never really thought of it as a multi -family residential area, that it
has always been a golf course and he thought that it probably always would be a golf course,
and that is probably the same opinion that the people who live across from it in Cherry Hill.
Phil Zietlow said that there are very few areas in the City zoned for multi -family residential. He
could see that there was some rationale for keeping it multi -family residential.
After some discussion the consensus of the Council was to leave this area out of this particular
rezoning action.
Moved by John Ferris, seconded by Bruce Workman, to approve Ordinance #341
Public/Semipublic Zoning, without including the property owned by Rolling Green. Motion
passed unanimously.
There was some discussion about what the next steps would be for this property.
Robinson said that they would have to notify for a hearing for the Planning Commission for a
Comprehensive Plan amendment to change this property from public/semipublic back to Multi -
Family Residential; that staff would try to bring that to the Planning Commission in August.
17. Rezoning for the Urban Residential Area
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow to approve Ordinance #342 the rezoning of
the Urban Residential area as presented. Motion passed unanimously.
18. Rezoning of the Urban Commercial Area
Moved by Bruce Workman, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve Ordinance #343 rezoning the
Urban Commercial area. Motion passed unanimously.
19. Modification to the Administrative Section of the City's Ordinance Regarding
Essential Services
Ron Batty said staff was directed to work on this definition to clarify it a little further to make sure
that it would be interpreted correctly and not allow personal wireless services to be consider an
essential service.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Jim Lane, to approve Ordinance # 344 amending the
administrative section of the City's zoning ordinance. Motion passed unanimously.
20. Ordinance to Remove the Moratorium from the Areas Being Rezoned
Moved by Bruce Workman, seconded by Carolyn Smith, to approve Ordinance #345 removing
the moratorium from the areas rezoned. Motion passed unanimously.
21. Issue from a Letter Received from the City of Plymouth Regarding a Monopole
Telecommunication Tower
Robinson asked if the City Council wanted to express an opinion on this matter.
After some discussion, the Council decided to adopt a resolution opposing the pole since it was
not consistent with the Uptown Hamel Zoning District and not allowed in the Uptown Hamel
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001
154
Zoning District. Additionally, Medina has been vigilant about not allowing telecommunications
towers to impact residential property, and the height of this tower seems inordinate.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Bruce Workman, to pass Resolution 01-36 opposing
the approval of the Conditional Use Permit and Variance by the City of Plymouth. Motion
passed unanimously.
22. Signage for the Hennepin County Fair
Loren Kohnen said that the Hennepin County Fair asked for an additional sign this year at the
intersection of County Road 19 and 55. He thought that this sign would be better placed on the
other side of the road in Corcoran where the event is being held. The City Council agreed.
23. Watershed Plans
Carolyn Smith said the Watershed sent an information request to the member cities. Robinson
said that he did receive that. It was not due until the 29th. Carolyn Smith said also she would
like this added to the next Council agenda some questions that the Watershed would like to ask
the City Council's.
24. Highway 55 and Willow Signal Assessment
Robinson said that the City Council held an assessment hearing two meetings ago. At that
hearing, the Council wanted staff to consider some additional modifications based on some of
the comments at the meeting. Robinson said that staff put together a memo regarding this
change. Robinson reviewed briefly the history of this signal. He said that between 1998 and
2000, there were a number of neighborhood meetings with business and property owners
regarding the possible signal. He said on December 15, 1998, the Council took their first official
action authorizing staff to submit a signal justification report. That was about two and half years
ago. After that, there were a number of meetings regarding the Chippewa Road Improvement.
That improvement was delayed based upon the desire to have the signal in place before the
improvement happened.
About a year and a half ago in November of 1999, the Council passed a resolution supporting
the realignment of the 55. Then Robinson said that about six months ago, the City Council
approved a feasibility report and three months ago, held an improvement hearing and in May an
assessment hearing.
Robinson said that staff researched a number of alternatives. However, staff is coming back to
the Council at this point with basically the original proposal for the primary and secondary
assessment areas with a little bit more sophisticated analysis for why those areas make sense.
Robinson showed an overhead of the area and Robinson said that any of the properties that
were greater than 3/4 of a mile away from the signal were placed in the secondary assessment
zone, or if you had to travel more than 3/4 of a mile to get to the primary access for the property
or there was no direct access available to the signal from the property. He said that was the
rationale that was used to determine the secondary district.
The consensus of the Council was that was a worthwhile consideration.
Robinson said that the next issue was whether or not the City would like to contribute additional
dollars. Robinson said that there was a spreadsheet attached showing what an additional
$100,000 contribution would do.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
June 19, 2001
155
The consensus of the Council was not to add any additional dollars to the contribution.
The last issue was reduction for access closures.
Robinson said that there was some mention at the meeting that the Council may want to
consider giving some credit to those who were having some accesses closed. After some
discussion, the Council decided not to provide any additional reduction in the assessment for
those with access closures.
Ron Batty said that the City will need to acquire these access closures or deeds to these access
closures in order to receive the $500,000 funding from MnDOT.
There was some additional discussion by the Council.
Jim Lane said that he would like included in the deferment that any homeowner occupied
properties be allowed to defer the assessment until such time as they change the use.
There was some discussion about how the overall cost of the project was reduced.
Tom Kellogg said they did not need to extend the road project to the railroad tracks. This
reduced the cost of the railroad track crossing. He said there were some areas where additional
pavement was also not needed based on soil borings they conducted. He said this enableed
them to keep the assessment the same for those in the primary area and reduce it for those in
the secondary area.
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to set an assessment hearing for the
second meeting in July with the primary and secondary area as presented with the deferment
schedule as determined for the last assessment hearing with the addition that those
homesteaded homeowner occupied properties be allowed to defer the assessment until there is
a change in use. Motion passed unanimously.
25. League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust
Staff was directed to go ahead and increase the insurance coverage to $1,000,000 for the
single incident liability if it did not cost the City any money. If it did cost money, then they
wanted to bring that issue back to the City Council.
26. Disposing of Furniture
Moved by Carolyn Smith, seconded by Bruce Workman to approve the disposition of the surplus
furniture. Motion passed unanimously.
There was some question about how this was going to be done.
Robinson said that they would advertise and have a silent auction.
27. Approval of the Liquor Licenses
Moved by Jim Lane, seconded by Bruce Workman, to approve the liquor licenses including a
license ownership transfer for Big Woods Saloon. Motion passed unanimously.
