Work Session February 7, 2018

Mayor Darrel Olson called the Work Session to order at 6:30 p.m. Council Members Present: Mayor Darrel Olson, and Council Members Quinn Nystrom, Steve Barrows, Todd Holman, and Mark Cross Council Members Absent: None Staff Present: City Administrator Bradley Chapulis, Public Works Director Trevor Walter, Community Development Director Josh Doty, and Assistant City Administrator Kelly Steele

1. 2019 Greenwood Road Improvements Project Scott Hedlund, consulting engineer with SEH, explained this is a follow up to discussion at the November 15, 2017 Cypress Drive open house regarding flooding that occurred in the fall of 2017 on private property adjacent to the Cypress Drive project limits. The study considered four alternatives to reduce flooding in the lowland area. None of the options include a traditional gravity storm sewer connection to the proposed Cypress Drive storm water management system because it is not feasible due to elevation constraints. Hydrocad modeling software was utilized in evaluating existing conditions and proposed alternatives. Soil borings completed in 2016 with the Cypress Drive project indicate the groundwater elevation is approximately 1188 +/- in the area which is the basis of the modeling. Recent survey data collected shows the structures on the problem lots were constructed at elevations of 1189.5 +/-, which is lower than structures on adjacent parcels by approximately 4-6 feet. Alternative one provides the existing lowland area to the north and west of 7980 and 8006 Greenwood Road is proposed to be re-graded into a large pond in order to maximize the available storm water storage in that area. Due to the proximity of this area to groundwater and adjacent lowest structure elevations, in order to be effective, the pond will need to be shallow and have a large footprint. This option requires the purchasing of seven parcels. An enhancement to the proposed pond would be to construct another cell on the east side of Cypress Drive and connect it with an equalizer culvert under the road. This enhancement would require purchasing property from one additional parcel. This alternative also proposes to enlarge a series of existing ditches along Greenwood Road by grading and connecting them with culverts so they function together. The main purpose of the ditches is for conveyance; however, they will provide some infiltration and storage. A proposed storm sewer overflow structure with piped outlet between 7970 and 7980 Greenwood Road would route excess runoff from the ditches to the proposed pond to the north. Also included with alternate one is the construction of a berm along the north sides of the enlarged ditches on the north side of Greenwood Road. Alternative one would require significate property acquisition, clearing and grubbing of the 100-foot-wide buffer area between the residential and commercial properties, wetland mitigation permitting, and private utility relocation/lowering along Greenwood Road.

Alternative two would include a portable pump to pump down the existing low area north of and newly constructed private pond on 7980 and 8006 Greenwood Road via force main to the proposed Cypress Drive storm water pond in the southwest quadrant of the Cypress Drive Industrial Park Road intersection. This is not envisioned to be a traditional permanent lift station. Rather permanent buried infrastructure would be constructed to accommodate connection of a portable pump. Included with alternative two is the proposed enlargement of a series of existing ditches along Greenwood Road by grading.

Alternative two would require property acquisition, clearing and grubbing, private utility relocation/lowering along Greenwood Road, and likely wetland mitigation permitting. Alternative three has two options. Option A would include pouring a concrete retaining wall north of the primary living structures and raising the remainder of the site including garage foundations by four feet. This would be the same elevation as the windows at the front of the buildings. This would require four feet of fill outside of the retaining wall, the addition of steps inside the retaining wall area to the existing doorway, and a sump pump with drain tile. Option B would include raising the entire primary living structure buildings four feet and pouring a new eight-foot-tall concrete foundation wall, in addition to raising the garage foundations four feet. This would require filling around the buildings and raised garages approximately four feet to provide frost protection of the new elevating footings. Demolition and replacement of the interior of the lower living units is also included. Alternative four is for the city to purchase and raise 7980 and 8006 Greenwood Road. This site would be converted back to green space. The lower portions of the lot would supplement storm water storage in the existing low area north of the properties. To defray the costs of this alternative both in the short and long term, it is possible that the City could eventually sell the lots for redevelopment. Any new development would need a property site plan including a storm water plan. Mr. Hedlund summarized the costs for the alternatives to be between $170,164 to $541,825. Funding options could include private property owners bearing 100% of the costs, a combination of the city and property owners sharing the costs, or the city bearing 100% of the costs. If a project were city-lead, levying special assessments to properties within the drainage area boundary may also be an option. Mr. Hedlund recommended the study be reviewed with the property owners of 7980 and 8006 Greenwood Road for their input on the next steps. This project could be constructed independently of the 2018 Cypress Drive project with the exception of the pond expansion to the east side of Cypress Drive. With this enhancement the culvert pipe under Cypress Drive would need to be installed with the 2018 Cypress Drive project to avoid disturbing a new road in the future.

Council Member Nystrom expressed concern that the four-unit building could receive three assessments in the future.

The Council directed Mr. Hedlund to discuss the options with the property owners, including the owners of the four-unit building, and bring their opinion back to a future council work session.

UTILITIES COMMISSION February 8, 2018

The regular meeting of the Baxter Utilities Commission was called to order at 5:30 p.m. by Chairman Rock Yliniemi. MEMBERS PRESENT: Commissioners Dave Franzen, Jack Christofferson, Chairman Rock Yliniemi and Council Liaison Mark Cross. MEMBERS ABSENT: Commissioner Doug Wolf. STAFF PRESENT: Public Works Director/City Engineer Trevor Walter and Administrative Assistant Mary Haugen. OTHERS PRESENT: WSN Consulting Engineer Aric Welch & Tim Ramerth, WSB Consulting Engineers Chuck Rickart, Chris Sonmor & Dave Schultz, SEH Consulting Engineer Scott Hedlund, and Bolton & Menk Consulting Engineer Bryan Drown.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES MOTION by Commissioner Christofferson, seconded by Commissioner Franzen to approve the Utilities Commission minutes of January 3, 2018. Motion carried unanimously. CAMPING WORLD STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN Public Works Director/City Engineer Walter reviewed the Camping World Stormwater Management Plan and had no concerns with the water, sanitary sewer or stormwater layout.

3. Signed Developers Agreement before a building permit is issued. Motion carried unanimously. WSB PROPOSAL FOR BIOLOGICAL FILTRATION WATER TREATMENT PLANT PILOT STUDY WSB Senior Project Manager Dave Schultz gave a brief introduction of himself and his past work history. Mr. Schultz formerly worked for the MN Department of Health as a regional supervisor for 35 years and started with WSB back in September of 2017. Mr. Schultz is very familiar with the City of Baxter’s water system as he was the MN Department of Health as a Regional Supervisor overseeing the Baxter Plant since the plant was built in 2007. The MN Department of Health considers biological filtration to be an efficient and effective treatment method for treating ammonia and other contaminants in public drinking water supplies. Ammonia is known to cause nitrification, taste and other issues and may be a root cause of lead and copper corrosion. Biological filtration creates the right robust environment to grow “good bugs” to destroy unwanted contaminants, such as ammonia, iron and manganese. Goals for this pilot study includes:

• Removal of ammonia, iron and manganese below secondary standards. Saving the city money in chemical and power costs. Estimated savings in chlorine reduction of 75% alone.

• Increased plant capacity through longer filter run times and increased flow. Using existing treatment plant infrastructure with minor engineered modifications.

• Increased water quality in distribution. With consistent removal rates and lowering the DBP formation potential with lower chlorine feed rates.

• Baxter’s treatment plant is setup well to be converted to a biological plant with minimal changes.

Mr. Schultz explained that WSB will assist the City and complete the study at no cost to the City except for City staff time to run the pilot plant, lab supplies and conduct daily testing. WSB owns a skid mounted biological filtration water treatment pilot plant that will be set up and installed inside the water treatment plant by WSB staff. WSB will train City staff to operate the pilot plant for the duration of the study. Public Works Director/City Engineer Walter stated city costs will be the lab supply costs and 40 – 60 hours of staff time for the 6 – 8 week study if the study goes longer the City staff hours will increase accordingly. MOTION by Commissioner Franzen, seconded by Commissioner Christofferson to recommend City Council approve the WSB Proposal for Biological Filtration Water Treatment Plant Pilot Study and dedicate 40 – 60 staff hours and lab supplies towards the pilot study. Motion carried unanimously. 2018 NORTH WATER TOWER REHABILITATION PROJECT MONTHLY UPDATE Chairman Yliniemi inquired if there were any questions or concerns with the 2018 North Water Tower Rehabilitation Project Monthly Update Memo.

January 26, 2018 City of Baxter Attn: Mr. Trevor Walter 13190 Memorywood Dr. P.O. Box 2626 Baxter, MN 56425 Re: Stormwater Management and Utilities for Camping World (Former

Gander Mountain Property, Baxter, MN Dear Mr. Walter, This impetus of letter is to provide the City of Baxter staff documentation regarding the proposed site improvements for the Gander Mountain property located just north of Excelsior Road along Edgewood Drive. The intent is to provide the City with sufficient information to illustrate the overall proposed development will comply with city code. A PUD amendment has been requested to provide for Camping World to develop on Lot 1, Block 1 Third Addition to Baxter Wal-mart Subdivision. Our findings have been summarized as follows: The property currently consists of large amount of existing impervious surface area along with existing wetlands, stormwater treatment area and lawn and greenspace areas. The proposed improvements will consist of a single user for the existing building that will be renovated to meet their needs. The City will require the 2 existing catch basins be rehabilitated at the intersection of Edgewood Drive and the private road access between Taco Bell and Caribou. These requirements have been incorporated into the construction plans. The wetland boundary of the westerly wetland has been revisited and Crow Wing County was on site for verification of the boundary and the wetland typing of a Type 2 wetland. Wetland impacts have been proposed of a total of 136 sq. ft., which falls under the WCA deminimus of 10,000 sq. ft. and the non-reporting requirement of 400 sq. ft. for the Corps of Engineers. This PUD was previously approved for Camping World, with the intent of utilizing Lot 2, Block 1 as a portion of the Camping World property. This has since been modified, and the intent is to leave Lot 2, Block 1 as was approved with the Third Addition to Baxter Wal-mart subdivision plat. A 100-year stormwater plan was developed with the PUD approvals for Camping World. This plan has been modified to accommodate the most recent changes as outlined herein. A portion of the property is connected to City maintained stormwater drainage system and a portion of the property was replatted as part of the Third Addition to Baxter Wal-mart Subdivision. Stormwater management requires the proposed redevelopment to retain runoff from the 100-year 24-hour storm event on site for the areas replatted as the Third Addition and the new impervious surfaces and the remainder of the property shall be designed to retain runoff from the 5-year 24-hour storm event. As the property currently exists, the majority of the bituminous pavement on the east side of the current Gander

Mountain building drain to the city stormwater system without water quality treatment. As a water quality trade off, a dry detention pond was created on the west side of the existing store to deal with the runoff for the 100-year event for the two lots that were created. The remainder of the site drains to a wet retention pond that was created as part of the original Walmart construction. The soils in the vicinity of proposed improvements have been mapped as Barber-Urban Land Complex and Lougee-Barber-Guida complex, which exhibit characteristics of hydrologic group “A” soils. The proposed plat is approximately 20.4 acres in size and the new impervious coverage that will be created as part of this project is approximately 90,869 square feet. The site was analyzed from a composite standpoint, as stormwater management improvements were made at various strategic locations to provide adequate stormwater treatment. The existing wet retention pond will be increased on the south side of the building, which will provide additional water quality treatment to the drainage area that is contributing to this system. An infiltration basin will be constructed on the north end of the property and will provide water quality treatment for the site in excess of the 1” of runoff from the new impervious surfaces. This infiltration basin will be connected to the dry detention basin that will be enlarged as part of this project. The runoff storage volume needed for the overall development is 167,417 cubic feet. The runoff volume that has been provided is 173,849 cubic feet. Atlas 14 rainfall frequency data was utilized for determining the 100-year and 5-year 24-hour runoff volumes that would be needed We are available for presenting this information at the next available utility and planning commission meetings. Please don’t hesitate to call with any questions or concerns regarding this letter or any information included herein. Sincerely, WIDSETH SMITH NOLTING Timothy T.

 January 29, 2018 Trevor Walter, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer City of Baxter 13190 Memorywood Drive Baxter, MN 56425 RE: Proposal for Biological Filtration Water Treatment Pilot Study Dear Mr. Walter, WSB & Associates, Inc. (WSB) is pleased to submit this proposal to provide professional engineering services for completing a Biological Filtration Water Treatment Pilot Study for the City of Baxter. We understand that the City is exploring options to address water quality concerns primarily caused by elevated levels of natural ammonia in its water supply source. The Minnesota Department of Health considers biological filtration to be an efficient and effective treatment method for treating ammonia and other contaminants in public drinking water supplies. Ammonia is known to cause nitrification and taste and order issues, and it may be a root cause of lead and copper corrosion. Ammonia can also consume large amounts of chlorine for treatment when breakpoint chlorination is done by the water utility. A biological filtration pilot study could be completed to determine if the natural ammonia in the City’s water supply source could be treated with a combination of biological and conventional filtration in a full-scale application. The purpose of the pilot study is to provide the City with information for deciding to pursue additional study for potential improvements to its water treatment plant. WSB will perform the following scope of services to assist the City in completing a biological filtration water treatment pilot study. WSB owns a skid-mounted biological filtration water treatment pilot plant that will be mobilized and installed inside the City’s water treatment plant by WSB staff. The equipment will be set-up and calibrated by WSB staff. WSB staff will also train City staff to operate the pilot plant for the duration of the study. In addition to treating ammonia, the pilot plant will also be used to treat iron and manganese in the water without the use of chlorine. Pilot Testing Processes WSB will prepare a pilot protocol and submit it to the Minnesota Department of Health for their review and approval. The pilot study will be conducted to assess the efficiency and reliability of the treatment processes tested and to select the process determined best suited for the treatment of the water supply. Pilot Duration The estimated time frame for the study is 8 to 16 weeks depending on the amount of time it requires the filters to become fully acclimated for biological treatment of ammonia, iron, and manganese.

Trevor Walter January 29, 2018 Page 2 Equipment WSB will set-up and loan the following skid-mounted pilot equipment to the City: Biological contact aerator column with gravel and air diffuser Biological filter column with silica sand covered by anthracite media Manganese filter column with greensand covered by anthracite One air compressor for supplying air to the contact aerator column An orthophosphate feed system if needed to provide a nutrient for the biological process A sodium permanganate feed system for oxidizing manganese prior to the greensand filter Miscellaneous components including a skid support, booster pump, valves, piping, tubing,

sample taps, and appurtenances as necessary for operation of the pilot equipment. The City will order and purchase orthophosphate and sodium permanganate from its local chemical supplier and provide the necessary storage and containment for these chemicals. Manpower and Field Testing Prior to the start-up of the testing period, WSB staff will be on site for one to two days to set-up and start-up the equipment and train City staff to operate and monitor the pilot plant for the duration of the pilot study. WSB staff will be available to answer questions and assist City staff as needed by phone. City staff will operate and monitor the pilot equipment and conduct all water sampling and field testing as needed for the duration of the pilot study. WSB will visit the plant every two to four weeks to observe and monitor the pilot study equipment. Daily on-site monitoring will be provided by City staff to read and record the pilot plant flow rate (gpm) and air flow rate (SCFM). City staff will also need to monitor the operation of the chemical feed systems daily. We estimate that these tasks will require approximately 20 to 30 minutes per day by City staff. Weekly on-site field sampling and analysis will be provided by City staff for the following water quality parameters. We estimate that the following on-site analysis will require approximately 1.5 to 2 hours per week by City staff. The City will provide all water quality analysis equipment and reagents that are required to test each of these parameters.

Sampling Point Weekly Field Sampling and On-Site Analysis Required

Raw water at pilot plant entry point Iron, manganese, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, temperature, pH and flow rate (gpm)

Biological contactor aerator column effluent Iron, manganese, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, dissolved oxygen, and air flow rate (SCFM)

Biological filter column effluent Iron, manganese, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, dissolved oxygen, air flow rate (SCFM), and pH

Manganese filter column effluent Iron, manganese, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, dissolved oxygen, and air flow rate (SCFM)

Sampling and analysis by an independent laboratory will be coordinated and provided by the City at bi-monthly (every-other week) intervals for the following water quality parameters. We estimate that the following sampling will require approximately 1 hour every-other week by City staff. The City will pay for the shipping costs for the water sample bottles and all water quality analysis to be provided by the independent laboratory.

We estimate that this task will require about 20 to 30 minutes every 4 to 7 days. Equipment Take-Down and Removal Upon completion of the pilot study, WSB staff will disassemble and remove the pilot study equipment from the City’s water treatment plant and return the equipment to WSB. Pilot Report Upon completion of the pilot study and receipt of City’s on-site water quality analysis data and the independent laboratory’s water quality reports, WSB will provide a comprehensive pilot study report with a summary of the test results and recommendations. The report will be prepared by a WSB water process engineer. Additional Notes:

1. A ¾-inch hose bib connection and hose will need to be installed in the plant influent water line by City staff to supply water for the pilot plant. A hose will also be required between the pilot plant discharge connection and the nearest floor drain.

2. 115V power will be required for the pilot plant 3. WSB is not responsible for the handling and disposal of the chemicals, wastes, or water

produced or used during the pilot study. It is anticipated that the wastes and water produced by the pilot plant can be discharged to the City’s sanitary sewer system with no additional treatment.

Terms WSB will assist the City and complete the proposed services at no cost to the City. We appreciate this opportunity to be of service to the City of Baxter. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or if you need additional information. Sincerely, Respectfully Submitted, WSB & Associates, Inc.

January 31, 2018 Mayor and City Council City of Baxter P.O. Box 2626 Baxter, MN 56425 RE: Agreement for Professional Engineering Services Water Treatment Plant Generator Baxter, MN Dear Mayor and City Council: In response to staff request, we are pleased to submit a proposal to assist the City with the installation of a backup electric generator at the Water Treatment Plant. The backup generator will provide redundancy in the system and keep the plant and maintenance facility running during times when electric service is disrupted. In June of 2016, we worked with Randy Praught of Holden Electric and representatives of Ziegler Power Systems (Caterpiller) and Pioneer Critical Power, Inc. (Generac) to develop cost estimates for electrical generator options (see attached memo). It is our understanding the City has selected Option C – 500 kW Diesel Generator without a walk-in enclosure. The estimated 752 amp output of a 500kW electrical generator will meet the estimated current demand of 500 amps but will not meet the estimated future demand of 760 amps. To meet future demands, it will be necessary to utilize a Modular Power System (MPS) which will allow the City to install another generator in parallel. Our proposed scope of services is as follows: Design Services WSN will prepare design drawings and contract documents suitable for competitive bidding that meet City requirements. Items included in our proposed scope of services are as follows:

• Preliminary design meeting • Site visit to confirm existing conditions • Electrical design of the new generator system • Preparation of project plans, including the following:

o Title sheet o Site Plan o Power Plans

• WSN quality control review and plan modifications • City review submittals • Final plan preparation • Preparation of contract documents and specifications • Preparation of Engineer’s Estimate of Probable Construction Cost • Project design status reports • Final plan review with City staff, Utilities Commission and City Council

Water Treatment Plant Generator January 31, 2018 Page 2

N:\Marketing Dept\Proposals\00 Baxter Proposals\Baxter - 2018 Water Treatment Plant Generator.doc

Advertising/Bidding/Award Services WSN will assist the City in advertising, bidding and awarding the project. Items included in our proposed scope of services are as follows:

• Assist City with advertising construction documents for public bidding. Advertisement fees are not included in this proposal and we assume the City will be responsible for and coordinate payment of fees with each advertisement service provider.

• Reproduction and distribution of contract documents to prospective bidders • Reply to bidder questions and inquiries • Prepare and distribute necessary addenda • Attend and assist with bid opening procedures • Prepare a tabulation of bids received • Review apparent low bid for compliance with contract documents • Make recommendation to the City for award of the contract

WSN proposes to perform the services described above on an hourly basis, in accordance with the attached fee schedule, for the Not To Exceed amount of $13,750. We propose to have the design completed within 60 days following receipt of the notice to proceed. If you agree with our proposed scope of services, please sign and return one copy of this letter to us as our authorization to proceed. Please note, we have assumed 3 hours of startup assistance. Additional construction related services such as site visits during or post construction are not included in this proposal. If requested, we can supply those services under a separate agreement based on estimated hours after the project is bid and the contactor is known or these additional services can be billed on an hourly basis in accordance with the attached fee schedule. We realize this is an important project to the City and for that reason, we welcome the opportunity to sit down with you and your staff to go over this proposal and review the approach and work tasks we have listed. If necessary, we will revise the proposal to better conform to the needs of the City for this project. We thank you for giving us the opportunity to submit this proposal and look forward to working with City staff to make this proposed project a reality. Sincerely, Aric Welch, P.E. Proposed by Widseth Smith Nolting Aric Welch, Vice President

General Provisions of Professional Services Agreement These General Provisions are intended to be used in conjunction with a letter-type Agreement or a Request for Services between Widseth Smith Nolting, a Minnesota Corporation, hereinafter referred to as WSN, and a CLIENT, wherein the CLIENT engages WSN to provide certain Architectural, and/or Engineering services on a Project. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” refers to (1) the WSN Proposal Letter which becomes the Letter Agreement upon its acceptance by the Client, (2) these General Provisions and (3) any attached Exhibits, as if they were part of one and the same document. With respect to the order of precedence, any attached Exhibits shall govern over these General Provisions, and the Letter Agreement shall govern over any attached Exhibits and these General Provisions. These documents supersede all prior communications and constitute the entire Agreement between the parties. Amendments to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both CLIENT and WSN. ARTICLE 1. PERIOD OF SERVICE The term of this Agreement for the performance of services hereunder shall be as set forth in the Letter Agreement. In this regard, any lump sum or estimated maximum payment amounts set forth in the Letter Agreement have been established in anticipation of an orderly and continuous progress of the Project in accordance with the schedule set forth in the Letter Agreement or any Exhibits attached thereto. WSN shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment to its fee should there be an interruption of services, or amendment to the schedule. ARTICLE 2. SCOPE OF SERVICES The scope of services covered by this Agreement shall be as set forth in the Letter Agreement or a Request for Services. Such scope of services shall be adequately described in order that both the CLIENT and WSN have an understanding of the expected work to be performed. If WSN is of the opinion that any work they have been directed to perform is beyond the Scope of this Agreement, or that the level of effort required significantly exceeds that estimated due to changed conditions and thereby constitutes extra work, they shall notify the CLIENT of that fact. Extra work, additional compensation for same, and extension of time for completion shall be covered by a revision to the Letter Agreement or Request for Services and entered into by both parties. ARTICLE 3. COMPENSATION TO WSN A. Compensation to WSN for services described in this Agreement shall be on a Lump Sum

basis, Percentage of Construction, and/or Hourly Rate basis as designated in the Letter Agreement and as hereinafter described.

1. A Lump Sum method of payment for WSN’s services shall apply to all or parts of a work

scope where WSN’s tasks can be readily defined and/or where the level of effort required to accomplish such tasks can be estimated with a reasonable degree of accuracy. The CLIENT shall make monthly payments to WSN within 30 days of date of invoice based on an estimated percentage of completion of WSN’s services.

2. A Percentage of Construction or an Hourly Rate method of payment of WSN’s services

shall apply to all or parts of a work scope where WSN’s tasks cannot be readily defined and/or where the level of effort required to accomplish such tasks cannot be estimated with any reasonable degree of accuracy. Under an Hourly Rate method of payment, WSN shall be paid for the actual hours worked on the Project by WSN technical personnel times an hourly billing rate established for each employee. Hourly billing rates shall include compensation for all salary costs, payroll burden, general, and administrative overhead and professional fee. In a Percentage of Construction method of payment, final compensation will be based on actual bids if the project is bid and WSN’s estimate to the CLIENT if the project is not bid. A rate schedule shall be furnished by WSN to CLIENT upon which to base periodic payments to WSN.

3. In addition to the foregoing, WSN shall be reimbursed for items and services as set forth

in the Letter Agreement or Fee Schedule and the following Direct Expenses when incurred in the performance of the work:

(a) Travel and subsistence. (b) Specialized computer services or programs. (c) Outside professional and technical services with cost defined as the amount billed

WSN. (d) Identifiable reproduction and reprographic costs. (e) Other expenses for items such as permit application fees, license fees, or other

additional items and services whether or not specifically identified in the Letter Agreement or Fee Schedule.

4. The CLIENT shall make monthly payments to WSN within 30 days of date of invoice

based on computations made in accordance with the above charges for services provided and expenses incurred to date, accompanied by supporting evidence as available.

B. The CLIENT will pay the balance stated on the invoice unless CLIENT notifies WSN in writing of the particular item that is alleged to be incorrect within 15 days from the date of invoice, in which case, only the disputed item will remain undue until resolved by the parties. All accounts unpaid after 30 days from the date of original invoice shall be subject to a service charge of 1 % per month, or the maximum amount authorized by law, whichever is less. WSN shall be entitled to recover all reasonable costs and disbursements, including reasonable attorneys fees, incurred in connection with collecting amount owed by CLIENT. In addition, WSN may, after giving seven days written notice to the CLIENT, suspend services and withhold deliverables under this Agreement until WSN has been paid in full for all amounts then due for services, expenses and charges. CLIENT agrees that WSN shall not be responsible for any claim for delay or other consequential damages arising from suspension of services hereunder. Upon payment in full by Client and WSN’s resumption of services, the time for performance of WSN’s services shall be equitably adjusted to account for the period of suspension and other reasonable time necessary to resume performance. ARTICLE 4. ABANDONMENT, CHANGE OF PLAN AND TERMINATION Either Party has the right to terminate this Agreement upon seven days written notice. In addition, the CLIENT may at any time, reduce the scope of this Agreement. Such reduction in scope shall be set forth in a written notice from the CLIENT to WSN. In the event of unresolved dispute over change in scope or changed conditions, this Agreement may also be terminated upon seven days written notice as provided above. In the event of termination, and upon payment in full for all work performed and expenses incurred to the date of termination, documents that are identified as deliverables under the Letter Agreement whether finished or unfinished shall be made available by WSN to the CLIENT pursuant to Article 5, and there shall be no further payment obligation of the CLIENT to WSN under this Agreement except for payment of an amount for WSN’s anticipated profit on the value of the services not performed by WSN and computed in accordance with the provisions of Article 3 and the Letter Agreement. In the event of a reduction in scope of the Project work, WSN shall be paid for the work performed and expenses incurred on the Project work thus reduced and for any completed and abandoned work, for which payment has not been made, computed in accordance with the provisions of Article 3 and the Letter Agreement. ARTICLE 5. DISPOSITION OF PLANS, REPORTS AND OTHER DATA All reports, plans, specifications, field data and notes and other documents, including all documents on electronic media, prepared by WSN or its consultants are Instruments of Service and shall remain the property of WSN or its consultants, respectively. WSN and its subconsultants retain all common law, statutory and other reserved rights, including, without limitation, copyright. WSN and its subconsultants maintain the right to determine if production will be made, and allowable format for production, of any electronic media or data to CLIENT or any third-party. Upon payment in full of monies due pursuant to the Agreement, WSN shall make hard copies available to the CLIENT, of all documents that are identified as deliverables under the Letter Agreement. If the documents have not been finished (including, but not limited to, completion of final quality control), then WSN shall have no liability for any claims expenses or damages that may arise out of items that could have been corrected during completion/quality control. Any Instruments of Service provided are not intended or represented to be suitable for reuse by the CLIENT or others on extensions of the Project or any other project. Any modification or reuse without written verification or adaptation by WSN for the specific purpose intended will be at CLIENT’s sole risk and without liability or legal exposure to WSN. CLIENT shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless WSN from any and all suits or claims of third parties arising out of use of unfinished documents, or modification or reuse of finished documents, which is not specifically verified, adapted, or authorized in writing by WSN. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Should WSN choose to deliver to CLIENT documents in electronic form, CLIENT acknowledges that differences may exist between any electronic files delivered and the printed hard-copy. Copies of documents that may be relied upon by CLIENT are limited to the printed hard-copies that are signed and/or sealed by WSN. Files in electronic form are only for convenience of CLIENT. Any conclusion or information obtained or derived from such electronic documents will be at user’s sole risk. CLIENT acknowledges that the useful life of some forms of electronic media may be limited because of deterioration of the media or obsolescence of the computer hardware and/or software systems. Therefore, WSN makes no representation that such media will be fully usable beyond 30 days from date of delivery to CLIENT. ARTICLE 6. CLIENT’S ACCEPTANCE BY PURCHASE ORDER OR OTHER MEANS In lieu of or in addition to signing the acceptance blank on the Letter Agreement, the CLIENT may accept this Agreement by permitting WSN to commence work on the project or by issuing a purchase order signed by a duly authorized representative. Such purchase order shall incorporate by reference the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and those contained in the CLIENT’s purchase order, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern.

8. Initiate action, where appropriate, to identify and investigate the nature and extent of

asbestos and/or pollution in the Project and to abate and/or remove the same as may be required by federal, state or local statute, ordinance, code, rule, or regulation now existing or hereinafter enacted or amended. For purposes of this Agreement, “pollution” and “pollutant” shall mean any solid, liquid, gaseous or thermal irritant or contaminant, including smoke, vapor, soot, alkalis, chemicals and hazardous or toxic waste. Hazardous or toxic waste means any substance, waste pollutant or contaminant now or hereafter included within such terms under any federal, state or local statute, ordinance, code, rule or regulation now existing or hereinafter enacted or amended. Waste further includes materials to be recycled, reconditioned or reclaimed.

If WSN encounters, or reasonably suspects that it has encountered, asbestos or

pollution in the Project, WSN shall cease activity on the Project and promptly notify the CLIENT, who shall proceed as set forth above. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Letter Agreement, the services to be provided by WSN do not include identification of asbestos or pollution, and WSN has no duty to identify or attempt to identify the same within the area of the Project.

With respect to the foregoing, CLIENT acknowledges and agrees that WSN is not a

user, handler, generator, operator, treater, storer, transporter or disposer of asbestos or pollution which may be encountered by WSN on the Project. It is further understood and agreed that services WSN will undertake for CLIENT may be uninsurable obligations involving the presence or potential presence of asbestos or pollution. Therefore, CLIENT agrees, except (1) such liability as may arise out of WSN’s sole negligence in the performance of services under this Agreement or (2) to the extent of insurance coverage available for the claim, to hold harmless, indemnify and defend WSN and WSN’s officers, subcontractor(s), employees and agents from and against any and all claims, lawsuits, damages, liability and costs, including, but not limited to, costs of defense, arising out of or in any way connected with the presence, discharge, release, or escape of asbestos or pollution. This indemnification is intended to apply only to existing conditions and not to conditions caused or created by WSN. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

services as may be required for the Project, such legal services as CLIENT may require or WSN may reasonably request with regard to legal issues pertaining to the Project including any that may be raised by Contractor(s), such auditing service as CLIENT may require to ascertain how or for what purpose any Contractor has used the moneys paid under the construction contract, and such inspection services as CLIENT may require to ascertain that Contractor(s) are complying with any law, rule, regulation, ordinance, code or order applicable to their furnishing and performing the work.

10. Provide “record” drawings and specifications for all existing physical features, structures, equipment, utilities, or facilities which are pertinent to the Project, to the extent available.

11. Provide other services, materials, or data as may be set forth in the Letter

Agreement or any Exhibits attached hereto.

B. WSN may use any CLIENT provided information in performing its services. WSN shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy and completeness of information furnished by the CLIENT. If WSN finds that any information furnished by the CLIENT is in error or is inadequate for its purpose, WSN shall endeavor to notify the CLIENT. However, WSN shall not be held responsible for any errors or omissions that may arise as a result of erroneous or incomplete information provided by CLIENT.

ARTICLE 8. OPINIONS OF COST Opinions of probable project cost, construction cost, financial evaluations, feasibility studies, economic analyses of alternate solutions and utilitarian considerations of operations and maintenance costs provided for in the Letter Agreement or any Exhibits attached hereto are to be made on the basis of WSN’s experience and qualifications and represent WSN’s judgment as an experienced design professional. It is recognized, however, that WSN does not have control over the cost of labor, material, equipment or services furnished by others or over market conditions or contractors’ methods of determining their prices, and that any evaluation of any facility to be constructed, or acquired, or work to be performed on the basis of WSN’s cost opinions must, of necessity, be speculative until completion of construction or acquisition. Accordingly, WSN does not guarantee that proposals, bids or actual costs will not substantially vary from opinions, evaluations or studies submitted by WSN to CLIENT hereunder. ARTICLE 9. CONSTRUCTION PHASE SERVICES CLIENT acknowledges that it is customary for the architect or engineer who is responsible for the preparation and furnishing of Drawings and Specifications and other construction-related documents to be employed to provide professional services during the Bidding and Construction Phases of the Project, (1) to interpret and clarify the documentation so furnished and to modify the same as circumstances revealed during bidding and construction may dictate, (2) in connection with acceptance of substitute or equal items of materials and equipment proposed by bidders and Contractor(s), (3) in connection with approval of shop drawings and sample submittals, and (4) as a result of and in response to WSN’s detecting in advance of performance of affected work inconsistencies or irregularities in such documentation. CLIENT agrees that if WSN is not employed to provide such professional services during the Bidding (if the work is put out for bids) and the Construction Phases of the Project, WSN will not be responsible for, and CLIENT shall indemnify and hold WSN, its officers, consultant(s), subcontractor(s), employees and agents harmless from, all claims, damages, losses and expenses including attorneys’ fees arising out of, or resulting from, any interpretation, clarification, substitution acceptance, shop drawing or sample approval or modification of such documentation issued or carried out by CLIENT or others. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to release WSN, its officers, consultant(s), subcontractor(s), employees and agents from liability for failure to perform in accordance with professional standards any duty or responsibility which WSN has undertaken or assumed under this Agreement. ARTICLE 10. REVIEW OF SHOP DRAWINGS AND SUBMITTALS WSN may review and approve or take other appropriate action on the contractor's submittals or shop drawings for the limited purpose of checking for general conformance with information given and design concept expressed in the Contract Documents. Review and/or approval of submittals is not conducted for the purpose of determining accuracy and completeness of other details or for substantiating instructions for installation or performance of equipment or systems, all of which remain the exclusive responsibility of the contractor. WSN's review and/or approval shall not constitute approval of safety precautions, or any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures. WSN's approval of a specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component. WSN's review and/or approval shall not relieve contractor for any deviations from the requirements of the contract documents nor from the responsibility for errors or omissions on items such as sizes, dimensions, quantities, colors, or locations. Contractor shall remain solely responsible for compliance with any manufacturer requirements and recommendations. ARTICLE 11. REVIEW OF PAY APPLICATIONS If included in the scope of services, any review or certification of any pay applications, or certificates of completion shall be based upon WSN's observation of the Work and on the data comprising the contractor's application for payment, and shall indicate that to the best of WSN's knowledge, information and belief, the quantity and quality of the Work is in general conformance with the Contract Documents. The issuance of a certificate for payment or substantial completion is not a representation that WSN has made exhaustive or continuous inspections, reviewed construction means and methods, verified any back-up data provided by the contractor, or ascertained how or for what purpose the contractor has used money previously paid by CLIENT.

ARTICLE 12. REQUESTS FOR INFORMATION (RFI) If included in the scope of services, WSN will provide, with reasonable promptness, written responses to requests from any contractor for clarification, interpretation or information on the requirements of the Contract Documents. If Contractor’s RFI’s are, in WSN’s professional opinion, for information readily apparent from reasonable observation of field conditions or review of the Contract Documents, or are reasonably inferable therefrom, WSN shall be entitled to compensation for Additional Services for WSN’s time in responding to such requests. CLIENT may wish to make the Contractor responsible to the CLIENT for all such charges for additional services as described in this article. ARTICLE 13. CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION If included in the scope of services, WSN will make site visits as specified in the scope of services in order to observe the progress of the Work completed. Such site visits and observations are not intended to be an exhaustive check or detailed inspection, but rather are to allow WSN to become generally familiar with the Work. WSN shall keep CLIENT informed about the progress of the Work and shall advise the CLIENT about observed deficiencies in the Work. WSN shall not supervise, direct or have control over any Contractor’s work, nor have any responsibility for the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures selected by the Contractor nor for the Contractor’s safety precautions or programs in connection with the Work. These rights and responsibilities are solely those of the Contractor. WSN shall not be responsible for any acts or omissions of any Contractor and shall not be responsible for any Contractor’s failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents or any applicable laws, codes, regulations, or industry standards. If construction observation services are not included in the scope of services, CLIENT assumes all responsibility for interpretation of the Contract Documents and for construction observation, and the CLIENT waives any claims against WSN that are connected with the performance of such services. ARTICLE 14. BETTERMENT If, due to WSN’s negligence, a required item or component of the Project is omitted from the construction documents, WSN shall not be responsible for paying the cost required to add such item or component to the extent that such item or component would have been required and included in the original construction documents. In no event, will WSN be responsible for any cost or expense that provides betterment or upgrades or enhances the value of the Project. ARTICLE 15. CERTIFICATIONS, GUARANTEES AND WARRANTIES WSN shall not be required to sign any documents, no matter by who requested, that would result in WSN having to certify, guarantee or warrant the existence of conditions whose existence WSN cannot ascertain. CLIENT agrees not to make resolution of any dispute with WSN or payment of any amount due to WSN in any way contingent upon WSN signing such certification. ARTICLE 16. CONTINGENCY FUND CLIENT and WSN agree that certain increased costs and changes may be required because of possible omissions, ambiguities or inconsistencies in the plans and specifications prepared by WSN, and therefore, that the final construction cost of the Project may exceed the bids, contract amount or estimated construction cost. CLIENT agrees to set aside a reserve in the amount of 5% of the Project construct costs as a contingency to be used, as required, to pay for any such increased costs and changes. CLIENT further agrees to make no claim by way of direct or third-party action against WSN with respect to any increased costs within the contingency because of such changes or because of any claims made by any Contractor relating to such changes. ARTICLE 17. INSURANCE WSN shall procure and maintain insurance for protection from claims against it under workers’ compensation acts, claims for damages because of bodily injury including personal injury, sickness or disease or death of any and all employees or of any person other than such employees, and from claims against it for damages because of injury to or destruction of property including loss of use resulting therefrom. Also, WSN shall procure and maintain professional liability insurance for protection from claims arising out of performance of professional services caused by any negligent act, error, or omission for which WSN is legally liable. Certificates of insurance will be provided to the CLIENT upon request. ARTICLE 18. ASSIGNMENT Neither Party to this Agreement shall transfer, sublet or assign any rights or duties under or interest in this Agreement, including but not limited to monies that are due or monies that may be due, without the prior written consent of the other party. Subcontracting to subconsultants, normally contemplated by WSN as a generally accepted business practice, shall not be considered an assignment for purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 19. NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create a contractual relationship or a cause of action by a third-party against either WSN or CLIENT. WSN’s services pursuant to this Agreement are being performed solely for the CLIENT’s benefit, and no other party or entity shall have any claim against WSN because of this Agreement. ARTICLE 20. CORPORATE PROTECTION It is intended by the parties to this Agreement that WSN’s services in connection with the Project shall not subject WSN’s individual employees, officers or directors to any personal legal exposure for the risks associated with this Project. Therefore, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, CLIENT agrees that as the CLIENT’s sole and exclusive remedy, any claim, demand or suit shall be directed and/or asserted only against WSN, a Minnesota corporation, and not against any of WSN’s individual employees, officers or directors. ARTICLE 21. CONTROLLING LAW This Agreement is to be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota. ARTICLE 22. ASSIGNMENT OF RISK In recognition of the relative risks and benefits of the project to both the CLIENT and WSN, the risks have been allocated such that the CLIENT agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to limit the liability of WSN, employees of WSN and sub-consultants, to the CLIENT and to all construction contractors, subcontractors, agents and assigns on the project for any and all claims, losses, costs, damages of any nature whatsoever or claims expenses from any cause or causes, so that total aggregate liability of WSN, employees of WSN and sub-consultants, to all those named shall not exceed $1,000,000 on this project. Such claims and causes include, but are not limited to negligence, professional errors or omissions, strict liability, breach of contract or warranty. ARTICLE 23. NON-DISCRIMINATION WSN will comply with the provisions of applicable federal, state and local statutes, ordinances and regulations pertaining to human rights and non-discrimination. ARTICLE 24. SEVERABILITY Any provision or portion thereof in this Agreement which is held to be void or unenforceable under any law shall be deemed stricken and all remaining provisions shall continue to be valid and binding between CLIENT and WSN. All limits of liability and indemnities contained in the Agreement shall survive the completion or termination of the Agreement.

ARTICLE 25. PRE-LIEN NOTICE Pursuant to the Agreement WSN will be performing services in connection with improvements of real property and may contract with subconsultants or subcontractors as appropriate to furnish labor, skill and/or materials in the performance of the work. Accordingly, CLIENT is entitled under Minnesota law to the following Notice:

(a) Any person or company supplying labor or materials for this improvement to your property may file a lien against your property if that person or company is not paid for its contributions.

(b) Under Minnesota law, you have the right to pay persons who supplied labor or materials for this improvement directly and deduct this amount from our contract price, or withhold the amounts due from us until 120 days after completion of the improvement unless we give you a lien waiver signed by persons who supplied any labor or materials for the improvement and who gave you timely notice.

J:\0102B-City of Baxter\0102B0000-City Engineering\0102B0000.076-Water Treatment Plant Generator\Correspondence\Generator 06-29-30.docx

MEMO Date: June 29, 2016 To: Kevin Cassady, Trevor Walter From: Mark Hallan Cc: Aric Welch, Jim Szustek Project Name: Water Treatment Plant Electrical Generator Project No.: 0102B0000.076 Subject: Electric Generator Budget Costs Widseth Smith Nolting worked with Randy Praught of Holden Electric and representatives from Ziegler Power Systems (Cat) and Pioneer Critical Power Inc. (Generac) to develop budget figures for electrical generator installation at the water treatment plant. Specification Section 16200 – Standby Power Generation System from the original water treatment plant project in 2006, as provided by the City, was used as the start/base to develop project cost estimates for budgeting purposes. The original generator sizing was based on the initial water plant plus expansion in the future with additional wells, filters and high service pump(s). Note this specification section called for a “walk-in” type enclosure. Both Cat and Generac representatives suggested this feature not be included due to cost. All cost estimates provided below do not include a “walk-in” type enclosure. On Friday June 24th a measure of the amp draw from the existing 480 volt, 3 phase service from the Crow Wing Power 750 kVA electrical transformer was completed. The measurement was taken when the water plant was backwashing one of the four filters with two well pumps in operation supplying 1,400 gpm to the other three filters. In addition, two of the high service pumps were placed in operation sending water into the distribution system and filling of the water towers. This scenario was run to simulate the electrical demand an electrical generator would need to meet during a prolonged power outage that required backwashing of the filters while supplying water to the system. The average amp draw measured by Holden Electric during this operational scenario was 332 amps. Typical maintenance facility and water plant ancillary power demand (lighting, controls, HVAC, etc.) is included in the 332-amp measurement. Allowing for a possible peak operational demand (aeration blower, compressor, third high service pump (or well pump), and winter operation of heating systems, the total draw is estimated at 500 amps. Planned future expansion includes an additional 125 HP high service pump and two 40 hp well pumps. The estimated amp draw of these items is 260 amps which brings the total estimated future load to 760 amps. Option A – 1,000 kW Diesel Generator: $456,000

This option is for a 1,000 kW diesel generator per the original specification, except as noted above. The out of a 1,000 kW generator is estimated at 1,500 amps. The equipment cost estimate of $223,000 is the weighted average between the budget figures provided by Cat and Generac. This option is being presented for comparison purposes only and is not recommended based on the required future electrical demands outlined above.

Option B – 750 kW Diesel Generator: $378,000

A 750 kW diesel generator has an output of 1,130 amps. This option will meet current and anticipated future demands. The electrical generator estimated cost is $170,000.

98

Page 99: BAXTER CITY COUNCIL AGENDA - · PDF fileMayor Darrel Olson and Council Members Quinn Nystrom, Steve Barrows, Todd Holman, and Mark Cross were present. City Administrator Bradley Chapulis,

Option C – 500 kW Diesel Generator: $285,000

A 500 kW electrical generator has an estimated output of 752 amps, which would meet the estimated current 500-amp maximum operational demand for both facilities. This option will not meet the future anticipated demand of 760 amps as outlined above. The electrical generator cost is $85,000. An MPS system can be added for an additional $13,000 which is included in the $285,00 estimated cost. This would allow the City to add parallel generator in the future as demand requires. For example, a 250 kW generator could be added to bring the total output up to 1,125 amps, which would meet anticipated future demands. The estimated cost to add a 250 kw diesel generator is $130,000 bringing the total future cost of this option to $415,000.

In summary, a 1,000 kW generator is not required based on future anticipated demands. A 750 kW generator will meet current and future demands and should be considered if the City plans to expand the water treatment plant in the next 10 to 15 years. If water plant expansion is not anticipated within the next 15 years plus, the 500 kW generator should be considered. If the City plans on expanding the plant in the near future, the 500 kW generator option with the future addition of a 250 kW generator is not attractive because the total cost exceeds the 750 kW generator option and the City would have the hassle and expense of maintaining two generators. The City should also be aware that larger generators (750 Kw verses 500 Kw) have increased yearly operational and maintenance costs.

Acting Chair Lund asked CD Director Doty for the staff report. CD Director Doty stated the applicant is requesting approval of a Rezoning/PUD (Planned Unit Development) General Plan and Final Plan to allow Gander Outdoors, Camping World and Overton’s, and a multi-tenant retail development for property located at 14275, 14203, and 14199 Edgewood Drive. CD Director Doty gave the history of the different PUD approvals in the past on the site. He stated that the current PUD approval included two lots to allow one multi-tenant retail building along Edgewood Drive and to allow Gander Outdoors, Camping World and Overton’s with recreational vehicle parking out to Edgewood drive. The applicants are proposing a new PUD that allows Gander Outdoors, Camping World and Overton’s with recreational vehicle parking in front of the Gander building and allow two multi-tenant retail buildings along Edgewood Drive. CD Director Doty noted that the original plat that is currently recorded serves this development plan. CD Director Doty reviewed the current site plan with the Commission pointing out the locations of the new building, signage and RV locations. CD Director Doty explained the proposed sidewalk connectivity to the Commission. He stated the development would be part of connectivity from Clearwater Rd. to Excelsior Rd and from the Gander building to Edgewood Drive. CD Director Doty submitted two letters from a Rick Mileski requesting sidewalk connections to his property to the north. CD Director Doty stated that the pine tree screening and parking requirements are similar to the last PUD. He indicated that screening has been added west of the existing loading area, due to recent tree removal to allow ponding expansion. He explained that the fencing has been modified to a black decorative vinyl fence without decorative columns for the east enclosure and the east side of the north enclosure. The fencing for the remining sides of the north enclosure would be black coated chain link. CD Director Doty informed the Commission that there will be a paved 20-foot fire lane in the rear of the former Gander Mountain building where currently there is just gravel. CD Director Doty stated the Utility Commission reviewed the application on February 8, 2018 and recommend approval subject to the following conditions:

1. A signed Developer’s Agreement is required due to the Section 6 stormwater design and fire

hydrant relocation. 2. Complete a 100-year stormwater design on any new impervious surfaces and a 5-year

stormwater design on any existing impervious surfaces. 3. Submit a City approved and executed Stormwater Facilities Maintenance Agreement. 4. Catch basins on the north and south side of the private drive entrance at the intersection of

Design Road and Edgewood Drive must be rehabilitated to City standards. 5. Pave the fire lane 20-feet wide on the west side of the building to meet the City of Baxter’s

MS4 Standards. 6. Provide the Fire Department with permanent access through all recreational vehicle gate

enclosures. 7. Submit the most current MnDOT ADA Design Plates (current date is February 2017).

CD Director Doty stated the applicant received architectural approval for the Gander Outdoors building on October 3, 2017. The architectural plan for the northeast multi-tenant building would meet the requirements of the zoning ordinance and can be approved administratively.

CD Director Doty stated staff is recommending approval of the rezoning and PUD General and Final Plan. Commissioner Hiltner asked about the RV parking, who is requesting the fencing the owners or the City. CD Director Doty stated the applicant is requesting it for security. However, staff has also asked for a decorative appearance. Commissioner Hiltner asked about the curbing and the potential for turning radius. CD Director Doty stated there is a turning radius plan submitted by the project engineer showing how 40-foot long RV’s can make the corners. Commissioner Hiltner asked about the two different signs in the packet. Staff said that was a mistake and that the applicant is requesting approval of a 30-foot high sign, not 40 feet. Acting Chair Lund opened the public hearing. Mr. Tom Ryan of Oppidan Investments (applicant), approached and clarified that the sign height being requested is 30 feet. He also stated the current Gander sign will be retrofitted by Gander Outdoors or replaced by them. Acting Chair Lund asked Mr. Ryan about Commissioner Hiltner’s question regarding the turning radius, if it is adequate. Mr. Ryan stated that their engineer did the turning radius study and the tenant is comfortable with the study. Commissioner Hiltner asked about the gate width, Mr. Ryan was not sure, however CD Director Doty did a quick measurement and the gates are roughly 36 feet wide. Mr. Richard Mileski, Baxter Edgewood Properties, LLC stated that he owns the two buildings to the north of this development. Mr. Mileski stated that for years, the guests from Super 8 have been crossing the parking lots from the hotel to Cub Foods and the surrounding restaurants, especially in the summer. He indicated that some even stop at his exterior furniture and eat their lunch/dinner. Mr. Mileski stated that with the new development, sidewalk connectivity should be installed from his east building as well. Mr. Mileski stated that the last time, connectivity was approved from the front by the council. This current plan is not showing the sidewalk in the front of the second building. He stated that his building to the east has a long term, handicap/wheel chair bound person and it would be nice to give access to all of the buildings to the south. It would also bring people off the frontage road. He would like to see it added as it would be a plus for both developers. Acting Chair Lund then closed the public hearing. Commissioner Carleton asked who would be the responsibility to pay for the sidewalk. CD Director Doty stated that if it is a condition of approval than the developer is responsible to pay the costs. He added that a developer and a neighboring property owner can make other private arrangements for who pays for the improvements. However, if it is a condition of approval by the City, then it is the developer’s responsibility.

Acting Chair Lund asked if the second building would come back to the Commission. CD Director Doty stated if the plan is built as currently shown, then no, it would not come back to this Commission. He added this would be the time to address the matter. Acting Chair Lund asked if there would be ADA pedestrian connections from the Gander building moving east to the two new buildings. CD Director Doty indicated yes. He said so there would be ADA connectivity to all buildings. However, it should be noted that is not a direct route from the east buildings to the neighboring property to the north. Commissioner Hiltner confirmed there is lighting throughout the development, CD Director Doty confirmed there is lighting proposed throughout the development. Motion by Commissioner Hiltner, second by Commissioner Carleton to recommend the City Council approve Rezoning/PUD General Plan and PUD Final Plan to allow the existing multi-tenant retail building to be occupied by Gander Outdoors, Camping World and Overton’s and to allow a three tenant retail building on the vacant northeast lot and to allow related site improvements to complete development of the PUD for properties located at 14275, 14203 and 14199 Edgewood Drive.as presented by staff in the draft resolution.
