Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to open the public hearing. Motion passed

Robinson said that R.G.S. Partnership was also not listed. Their assessment was for $20,000
for the property referenced by the PIN number 03-118-23 31 0001.
Robinson said that all but one of the property owners had signed a petition and waiver
agreement for their portion of the assessment. Robinson said that the remaining amount to be
assessed was around $25,000, for the two properties owned by William Cavanaugh.
William Cavanaugh asked to address the council. He said that he was confused about the
amount, how it went from $20,000 to $25,000. He showed the council a letter that he received
stating the assessment was for $20,000. He said he wanted his assessment to reflect that
amount and asked to have the assessment split across four properties as referenced by deeds,
but not by actual property identification numbers from the county.
Ron Batty said that on March 15, 1969, Mr. Cavanaugh bought the property with 10 deeds and
with 10 legal descriptions, all filed appropriately to the county. However, neither the city nor the
county have a record of these three properties ever having been subdivided beyond the
properties currently designated by the three PIN numbers.
Mr. Cavanaugh asked why the four separate deeds did not show as four separate properties.
Ron Batty said he did not know what happened, but he said that anybody who wanted to split or
divide property needed to go through the city in order to accomplish that. He said that he did
not know what happened 30 years ago, but currently there are two property tax records and the
city is only able to apportion assessments to existing properties that are referenced by property
I.D.'s through the county.
There was some discussion about the assessments and how they could be spread.
Ron Batty said tonight the issue is whether or not to adopt the assessment roll which would
assess the parcels that currently exist. He said the issue of dividing the properties would be an
issue that would have to be taken care of through the planning commission as a subdivision. He
said at that time, as with several other subdivisions in the city, the assessments can be
apportioned from one parcel to the new parcels.
There was some discussion about how Mr. Cavanaugh's issues could be dealt with.
John Ferris said the petition and waiver agreement was for $20,000. He said if Mr. Cavanaugh
was okay with signing the agreement the city could adopt the role and only assess Mr.
Cavanaugh $20,000.
John Ferris said that he, Mr. Cavanaugh, and the Planning and Zoning Administrator would sit
down on Thursday and work on the issue of the deeds and subdividing his property.
Ron Batty said that tonight the city council would need to adopt the assessment roll in order for
the city clerk be able to certify these assessments to the county.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by John Hamilton, to close the public hearing. Motion
passed unanimously.

Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Phil Zietlow to adopt the assessment roll, changing the
assessments on Bill Cavanaugh's property from $19,468.50 to $15,000.00 on the one property,
and on the other property from $6,489.50 to $5,000.00. Motion passed unanimously.
8. Lake Medina Outlet Control
John Ferris said that included in the council packet was a draft of the water management plan
for Lake Medina. This included maintaining the lake level at 979.5 year round, and lowering the
lake level to 979 in the fall, and raising it back up to 979.5 in the spring.
Reg Pederson said a significant part of the compromise in drafting this management plan was
that the property owners would be allowed to continue to fill down to the 980.5 level even after
the change in the lake level.
There was a question about whether or not this may conflict with the city's current ordinance.
Ron Batty was going to look into that issue.
John Ferris suggested that when this management plan goes to the DNR for approval, that part
of that request include a permit allowing the property owners to fill to the same level as they are
currently allowed to.
Jim Dillman said that this permit request should also allow property owners to fill down to the
980.5 level without mitigation.
Reg Pederson said that would be okay with him, but if it fails, the property owners would not be
in favor of this compromise. He requested that this permit be for an extended period of time.
The consensus of the city council was to add the permit stipulation.
Marc Anderson said that he looked over the agreement and believed that the city council action
did not go far enough. He said their position has been that the agreement should include a
provision giving all property owners a say in the decision whether or not to raise or lower the
lake before any council action is taken.
Phil Zietlow said that was not what he had heard. He said that the city council would be the one
that would need to make that determination.
Marc Anderson said that there should be some consensus on this. They were afraid that the
water could be raised and lowered arbitrarily. He said that would not help foster stability. Marc
Anderson said that three years from now we could be right back where we started. He said that
Lundgren Bros. was also worried that this was a way the city could drop the lake level down
over the next five years. Lundgren does not want the lake level to drop six inches a year until it
is down to the bottom.
Phil Zietlow said that the DNB's position is that the legal level of the lake is actually two feet
lower than its current level. The city does not want to drop it down two feet right now. What the
council is trying to do is to maximize the property values of both the upstream and the
downstream properties and come up with the best compromise.
There was some additional discussion about the lake level and the anxieties of the Foxberry
Farms Homeowners Association.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
238
The city council's position is if the residents of the city do not believe that the city council is
making the appropriate decision, the place to change that is to run for the city council or to vote
for city council members that back their opinions, but that the city cannot abdicate its
responsibility for regulating the city's waterways.
Phil Zietlow said that public hearings are opportunities for everyone to voice their opinion. He
said that he definitely listens to what people are saying.
There was some additional discussion about the agreement. The city council wanted to make
clear that they were not trying to take an all or nothing position. However, the city council
believed that it would be within its jurisdiction to lower the lake level two feet, by removing the
artificial structure used to raise the lake.
The consensus of the council was to strike a compromise between upstream owners and the
current owners on Lake Medina, by lowering the lake level in the spring and raising it in the
summer with the hope that this will alleviate some of the problems of the upstream owners while
maintaining sufficient open water for the property owners in Foxberry Farms.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve the water management plan,
changing the lake level to 979.5 and the 100 year flood elevation floodplain to 981.76, with the
stipulation that a permit be requested at the same time as the water management plan allowing
the affected property owners to fill down to the 980.5 level without mitigation. Motion passed
unanimously.
9. County Road(CR) 101 Watermain Public Hearing
Moved by John Hamilton, seconded by John Ferris to open the public hearing. Motion passed
unanimously.
Glenn Cook said this project involved the installation of a water main which was extended from
south of Highway 55 and up CR 101 to the Cherry Hill Development. This looped the water
system in this area and also provided city water to both commercial and residential properties
along CR 101. He said this was initiated by the development of a Holiday station on the corner
of TH55 and CR101. He said the total cost of this project was $142,007. Of that amount the city
was assessing $46,980 and taking the remainder out of the trunk water fund.
Joe Berthiaume asked why there was such a large discrepancy between the cost per foot
proposed at the initial public hearing and the current cost per foot.
Glenn Cook said the assessment at the original public hearing included frontage on both sides
of their parcels. Cook said this included the eastern and southern boundary of Mr. Berthiaume's
property versus just the eastern boundary as is currently being used. Cook said this increased
the cost per foot, however, the original amount of the assessment, around $50,000, has
remained approximately the same.
Joe Francis asked why the other properties had assessments that were much lower than his
and Mr. Berthiaume's. He said that the city reduced the assessments on the other properties by
the amount that it would have cost the city to purchase a utility easement over their property.
He said the city would have had to pay around $11,000 for those easements.
Joe Francis asked how they determined the residential rate versus the commercial rate.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
239
Glenn Cook said that typically the residential rate is 50% of the commercial rate.
There was some discussion about the added costs that were involved in the construction of the
Holiday station because of requests by the city.
Joe Francis said that he originally agreed to an assessment of around $22,000. He would like
to have the assessment reflect that original estimate or at least be close to that.
The council agreed to a reduction in the assessed amounts. Joe Berthiaume would owe
$16,147 and Joe Francis would owe $21,823.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by John Hamilton, to close the public hearing. Motion
passed unanimously.
Moved by John Hamilton, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve the assessment roll with the
new figures for Joe Berthiaume and Joe Francis of $16,147, and $21,823 respectively. Motion
passed unanimously.
10. Subdivision Ordinance Concerning Soils
Phil Zietlow said a couple of meetings ago we had talked about getting started changing the soil
requirements in the subdivision ordinance. He asked Loren Kohnen where that was at.
Loren Kohnen said that they are waiting for the city clerk to create some maps so that they can
start making the calculations. He said they will try to get this issue on the December planning
commission agenda.
11. Police Vehicle
Ed Belland said that the Jeep is the lowest cost utility vehicle on the state contract. He said
there was some safety concerns with the passenger side air bag on the newer Jeeps. However,
he located a used Jeep that did not have a passenger side air bag that could work as a police
utility vehicle. He said that Jeeps were smaller in size than some of the other vehicles.
Belland said this utility vehicle would be used for emergency responses. He said the Jeep
would work for this purpose. However, if cost were not an issue, a Tahoe would be his choice.
He said that all departments with Tahoes are very satisfied with their performance and that
those with jeeps have some second thoughts as to whether or not they are the best vehicle
based on the size and some of the safety concerns.
John Hamilton asked how much the used Jeep would cost.
Ed Belland said around $17,000.
John Ferris said that he was not as sold on Jeeps. He was concerned about their repair record.
Phil Zietlow asked for clarification on the use of the vehicle. He was under the understanding
that it would be used only as an inclement weather vehicle and that the vehicle would cost
around $.25 a mile to use and maintain.
Ed Belland said that the vehicle needs to be driven in order to keep it in good shape.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
240
Phil Zietlow agreed that the Crown Victorias are very bad in winter weather and that having the
four-wheel drive is appropriate for the department in order to respond in times of inclement
weather.
John Hamilton said that if the city were to purchase a Tahoe or any vehicle he would like it to be
used instead of sitting waiting for the occasional inclement weather event.
There was some additional discussion about the pros and cons between a Jeep and a Tahoe.
John Hamilton said that a Jeep wor'<s fine for the police department in Corcoran. He said if the
police department were to spend mere money to purchase a Tahoe only to be used once in a
while it does not seem to make as rnuch sense as using it as a primary patrol vehicle.
John Ferris said he thought that a Jeep sounded like it would not be big enough or reliable
enough. He said he would recommend that the police department purchase a Tahoe.
Jim Johnson asked how much the Tahoe would cost.
Ed Belland said that it would cost $27,600 plus tax and delivery.
There was some discussion about how exactly the vehicle would be used.
Ed Belland said he would put it to the best possible use.
Ann Thies asked how many times a week the CSO would typically use the vehicle.
Ed Belland said several times a week.
Phil Zietlow asked if the Tahoe would be acceptable as a chase vehicle.
Ed Belland said that yes, the police version is made to be able to handle high speed chases.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconder' by John Ferris, to approve the purchase of a Tahoe for
$27, 650.00 plus tax and delivery. Four ayes were heard, one reluctant aye followed. Motion
passed.
11. Bowhunting Ordinance
Ed Belland said that the ordinance should have read that there is a 100-foot limit to the property
line unless the hunter is in a stand six feet above the ground.
Phil Zietlow said he thought it was going to be 100 feet from the property line and six feet above
the ground at all times.
Dan Strand said that he was not sure that requiring six feet above the ground was a reasonable
request. He asked when was the last time there was an incident where somebody was hurt by
a bowhunter.
Phil Zietlow said that this was not necessarily a response from an incident, but it was from a
resident who had a complaint about a hunter who was hunting along the property line. He said
the resident was concerned aboLt letting his kids play in the back yard as well as letting his pets
run around in his yard with a hunger right on his property line.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
241
Phil Zietlow said that it was more an issue of perception than an actual incident that caused the
city council to consider this ordinance.
There was some discussion about the distance that an arrow could travel and some of the other
issues concerning hunting with bows.
Ed Belland said that he would work on this ordinance and bring it back to the city council at a
future meeting.
12. Lot Subdivision Proposal by Gary Boster
Loren Kohnen said that Mr. Boster was requesting a seven -lot subdivision with two outlots. He
said that Outlot A was zoned multi residential, and Outlot B was in the rural residential zoning.
He said the property was located east of Pinto Drive and approximately 150 feet south of Hamel
Road. This request includes lot sizes that are approximately 12,400 square feet. Kohnen said
that sewer serves the lots on the south, and that water service will be provided on the north.
He said townhomes are a permitted use in the multiple residential zone. He said that staff
recommended approval of the seven lot subdivision with the two outlots on which Mr. Boster
wishes to construct zero lot line townhomes with the following conditions:
A. Association rules and other convenants to be reviewed by city staff.
B. Drainage and utility easements to be provided.
C. Easement over the northern city water line to be provided by the city, plus an access
easement.
D. Ownership of Outlot B to be determined and approved by the city.
E. Cul-de-sacs to be provided on the south end of Pinto and at the east end of access
road.
F. City attorney to review and approve of access easements for all property owners over
adjoining properties for access for their parcel.
G. Additional fire hydrant to be provided on lot line between lots 2 and 3.
H. All roads, streets, this to include Pinto Drive south of Hamel Road, be maintained by the
association.
I. Plat review by Elm Creek Watershed District.
J. Construction of streets to be approved by city engineer.
K. Park dedication fee to be paid when plat is approved.
L. Stop signs installed at Hamel Road.
Phil Zietlow asked how the fire department felt about the cul-de-sac and the access road.
Loren Kohnen said that this would have to be approved by the fire chief.
Jim Johnson asked what these townhomes would sell for.
Mr. Boster said they would range between $150,000 and $200,000.
Phil Zietlow said that one of the outlots was fairly large. He thought the outlots should be
attached to some property so that they would not go into tax forfeiture. He was concerned that
somebody should be responsible for the outlots.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
242
Ron Batty said he could work with staff to come up with a solution for designating ownership of
the outlots.
There was some additional discussion about whether or not to combine the outlot with one
property or extend the five properties into the outlot and eliminate the outlot all togeather.
There was some discussion about the road.
John Ferris asked if the 24-foot wide road would be okay.
Jim Dillman said that the 24-foot wide road would work, but they are proposing that it be
maintained by the homeowners association.
Phil Zietlow asked why there was a cul-de-sac added. He thought that there was some
opposition to cul de sacs.
Loren Kohnen said that cul-de-sacs were there for emergency purposes, as well as a place to
put snow.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Ann Thies, to approve the preliminary plat, with staff
clarifying the ownership of the road and the division and ownership of the outlot. Motion
passed unanimously.
13. Vacancy on the Planning Commission
At the beginning of the year when Carolyn Smith becomes a council member there will be an
additional vacancy on the planning commission. Ann Thies said that she would recommend
leaving the planning commission at seven members.
Phil Zietlow said that we had discussed the issue of seven versus nine several times. He said
he was in favor of maintaining the planning commission at nine.
Carolyn Smith said she believed seven worked well. She said there has been a problem with
members strolling in late, or not coming at all. She said that it would not be a problem if there
were nine members who showed up and did their homework. She believed that seven
members would work better.
Phil Zietlow said if you look at the diversity of the city, Independence Beach, Medina
Morningside, Hamel area, the rural area, he thought that more people better represented the
diversity of the city.
Carolyn Smith thought the city council could consider creating districts for planning
commissioners and better enforce the ordinance that requires dismissal of a planning
commissioner who missed three meetings.
Ann Thies said that now is a good time to try keeping the planning commission at seven
planning commissioners. She said the council can always add more commissioners later.
John Hamilton said that he was for seven.
John Ferris said that he does not mind the larger size, however, he was willing to try seven to
see how it goes.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
243
Loren Kohnen said that right now, before the comprehensive plan is completed, it would be
helpful to keep the seven people who have been working on the comprehensive plan consistent
before adding additional people.
Ron Batty said the city council can leave the membership at nine, however, fail to appoint two
additional members when appointments are typically made at the end of February.
14. Holiday Station Lighting
Loren Kohnen said that over the past few years, all lighting in the city has been required to be
downcast and meet the requirements of .4 candlepower at the lot line between commercial and
residential districts.
Loren Kohnen said he recently wrote a letter asking Holiday to shade the lighting underneath
the canopy. They did this. However, the problem now is with the fascia lighting. He said he
wrote a letter requesting that Holiday bring these lights into compliance within 30 days. He said
if that condition was not met they would have to turn the lights off, or he would pull their
conditional use permit.
Loren Kohnen said that the current state of the lighting at the Holiday station is not fair to the
residential properties in the area.
Ann Thies asked why this was happening.
Loren Kohnen said he did not realize that the fascia would be backlit.
Joe Francis said that they built the station and the lighting according to the plans. He said that
they followed the recommendation of Holiday Corporate. He said that pendaflex lighting is by
far the most attractive and customers appreciate a well -lit store. He said they have tried a
number of solutions. They bought shields and the shields melted. They tried to shroud the
lights, but that also did not work.
Greg Ebert said they were concerned that using the covers over the lighting would void the UBC
rating and put their insurance in jeopardy. He said that as a part of the CUP it says that the
lighting fixtures must be reviewed and approved by staff. He said that the lighting fixtures were
a part of the plan, and were reviewed and approved. He said that this should have been dealt
with before the station was built, rather than after they spent $96,000 for the pendaflex lighting.
He said that he purchased a light meter and tested lighting all over the city including their
station. Ebert said that at the worse spot Holiday gives off 2.4 candle power. He said they laid
the meter flat on the ground and it still read .9. He said the ordinance's .4 requirement was too
restrictive. He said that the green light given off by the traffic signal registered a .6 and would
not be in compliance based on the ordinance.
There was some discussion about the potential solutions.
Carolyn Smith of the planning commission said when this proposal was brought to the planning
commission there was no mention of fascia lighting. She said they added the typical conditions
including the requirement that all lighting be downcast. Unfortunately the fascia lighting was not
brought up or the planning commission would have definitely told them that it would was not
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
244
acceptable. She said it was unfortunate that they spent $100,00 on lighting. However, she did
not believe the fascia was going to be lit.
Greg Ebert said that it was unfortunate that we have gotten to this point. Especially since the
lighting was a part of the plan since the beginning.
Phil Zietlow said that it explicitly states on the conditional use permit that all lighting be
downcast. He said the fascia lighting is definitely not downcast.
Loren Kohnen said that on the plans it said that the fascia was made to receive backlit lighting.
However, he did not realize that they would actually be installed.
Joe Francis said the biggest problem with the lighting is that there is a residential property
across the road.
Loren Kohnen said that recently the city required an industrial property abutting a residential
zone to plant 60 and 70 spruce trees to protect one house.
Carolyn Smith said that residents have made it clear to the planning commission that they do
not want the Trunk Highway 55 corridor to be lit up like Las Vegas.
Greg Ebert said that either the ordinance is too restrictive, or there is a significant non-
compliance issue with lighting in the city.
John Ferris said that there was some discussion about other lighting in the city and that some
are in compliance and others are not.
Greg Ebert said that on the east side of the building the light reading is .9. He said that they
could live with 1 candle power. With that type of requirement they could bring their station into
compliance. But with .4 requirement he does not believe that it would be possible to pump gas.
Julius and Nancy Dorweiler of 5022 County Road 101, said that they were the victims here. He
said that Joe Francis brought the canopy lights into his home. He said that the canopy lights
are not the problem. He said that the fascia lights are the problem. He said the ordinance
states that .4 candlepower is the requirement, and curre ntly the station is at 2.3 at the bottom of
his driveway and .9 at the top of his driveway.
Mr. Dorweiler said you could stand in his front yard at night and read the paper. He said that
this is light pollution. He said that he does not have anything personally against Joe Francis.
He thinks Joe has been very cooperative and he has even offered to put shades in his house.
Mr. Dorweiler said that he could afford shades. However, he did not like shades and he did not
want to have shades. Mr. Dorweiler said that he did not create the problem. He said that the
lighting is in violation of the city ordinances and is illegal.
Greg Ebert said the lighting is brighter than they had expected and they are willing to make it
better and will get as close as they can. However, they believe the ordinance may be too
restrictive. Greg Ebert listed off other properties that have one candlepower at their property
line which would exceed the ordinance requirement. He also said that there are a number of
residential properties who would also exceed the .4 requirement.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
November 17, 1998
245
Phil Zietlow said that right now the issue is not other properties but your property. He said that
we will treat one property at a time. He said that one alternative is for you to turn off your lights
until you get them fixed.
There was some additional discussion about the problems with the light casting onto the
residential properties nearby.
Joe Francis said that if he were to turn off his facade lighting, people would think he was closed.
He said the Holiday Station logo is lit by the backlighting. He said this would be the same thing
as shutting him down for business.
Ann Thies said that she does not like bright lighting and would like this issue to be resolved.
John Ferris said that however we deal with this issue, we need to enforce this ordinance
likewise for all properties.
Phil Zietlow said that he was fine with that.
Greg Ebert said that in the future it would be helpful if the city required a lighting plan, that way
the city up front, as well as the business owners would know the rules of the game.
Phil Zietlow said that in the conditional use permit it clearly identifies that light is not to leave the
property and that it be downcast.
Phil Zietlow said that if the lighting were required to be turned off right now, he believed that the
owners would more than likely come up with a creative solution to fix it sooner than if the lighting
were allowed to stay on. He said that it was a good thing he was not living next door.
Greg Ebert said that Thorpe and Transtech are at 1 and not at .4.
John Hamilton said that the Holiday Station is several times as bright as that.
There was some discussion about whether the .4 requirement may be too restrictive. The city
council directed city staff to purchase a light meter to test the lighting in the area to determine an
appropriate candle power requirement.
The consensus of the council was to review the .4 requirement at the next meeting and that the
Holiday Station, at a minimum, bring their lighting to within one candle power within the next 30
days, or their lights would be required to be shut off.
The Holiday Station issue would be reviewed at the second meeting in December.
15. 1999 Budget
Paul Robinson said there were a few issues still outstanding in the 1999 budget. One was the
approval of the auditors' contract. He said this increased is more than normal this year because
of added audit requirements they are required to fulfill. He said another issue was a request
from the Hamel Fire Department for a 5% increase, and the council's charitable contributions.
Robinson said that last year the city had those requesting contributions make presentations. He
said that there were no significant increases in any of the contributions requested this year, and
asked if the city council if he should schedule any presentations.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes

The consensus of the council was not require formal presentations this year.
Moved by Ann Thies, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve the auditors' contract for 1999.
Motion passed unanimously.
The council would like to have the Hamel Fire Department make a presentation on their request
for a 5% increase in 1999.
