June 8, 2010
PRESENT: Chairman Kevin Riley, Norm Stanek, Carlos Holcomb
ALSO PRESENT: Mayor John Sund, Ken Witt, Ed Lukasek, Ron Button, Todd Fahning, Reinhart Mueller, Peggy Klein, Police Chief Mike Kass, Karen Edwards
Chairman Kevin Riley called the meeting to order at 6:00 pm.
A motion was made to approve the Consent Agenda which consisted of the May meeting minutes. Motion carried 3-0.
A motion was made by Norm Stanek and seconded by Carlos Holcomb to waive the right of first refusal on the property at 413 Osborne Dr. Motion carried 3-0.
The property, owned by the Christian School, has an offer of $132,500 from Charlie Palmer and the committee requested that Charlie be asked if he would give the City the right of first refusal if he decided to sell the property. His plan for the property at this time is for an adult day care. If this would change in the future to an overnight facility, it would need to be rezoned.
A motion was made by Norm Stanek and seconded by Carlos Holcomb to approve the budget transfer of $33,000 from the City Hall Outlay Fund to the Police Department Outlay Fund. Motion carried 2-1. Kevin Riley voted No.
Chief Kass stated they would like to get a head start on some of the projects needed rather than wait until next year. He stated the estimate is about $50,000 for the exterior work needed. If this amount was transferred now, the 2012 levy will be dropped for the Police Department from the current $20,000 to $25,000. Kevin was not opposed to the project but thought it could wait until next year.
Ken Witt explained the TIF #8 project plan would be on a very strict time frame and was questioning whether Finance would like him to proceed with the project. The committee told Ken to proceed. No action was required at this time.
A motion was made by Kevin Riley and seconded by Norm Stanek to begin demolition of the Downtown Incubator Building in the summer of 2011. Motion carried 3-0.

Since the building does need a new roof although it is only 9 years old, it was decided to not invest anymore funds. Todd Fahning will try heat tape to keep the leaking from going into the Soap Shop side and will not be releasing the property.
A motion was made by Norm Stanek and seconded by Kevin Riley to adjourn. Motion carried 3-0. Meeting adjourned at 7:25 pm.

Chairman Stanek called the meeting to order at 6:00 pm.
A motion was made by Mark Jacobs and seconded by Tom Brown to approve the minutes from the June meeting. Motion carried 6-0. Bob Halverson not yet present.
A motion was made by Kevin Riley and seconded by Mark Jacobs to continue taking down the boards on the outside rink. Motion carried 6-0.
It was decided the boards were not in good enough shape and should be removed plus the rink is used very little for hockey. Brad also stated the West Side Park is flooded for skating.
A motion was made by Mark Jacobs and seconded by Kevin Riley to approve the request from Sarah Johnson, the Golf Course Concessionaire, to terminate her lease at the end of this season and also to start advertising for a new concessionaire. Motion carried 7-0. Bob Halverson, Jr. arrived at 6:15 pm.
Sarah Johnson’s current lease is from 2008-2010 but with this much notice it should not be a problem to honor her request although there are no provisions in the lease to terminate. Her lease is at $24,000 per year. Roger Johnson held the lease for several decades ending in 2001. His last lease rate was $28,000 per year. Dale Clements and Dave Cornell had a 3 year lease from 2002-2004 at $27,000, $30,000 and $33,000 per year. They completed the first two years and it was subleased the third year to Gail Raddatz. Gail then had another 3 year contract from 2005 thru 2007at $26,000, $29,000 and $32,000. Gail did complete her lease and decided not to renew. The Park Board received two bids for 2008 that were both very low and neither one was accepted. At that time another bid was received from Sarah Johnson and Kelly Longmire and a 3 year lease from 2008-2010 was signed for $24,000 and after the first year it was renegotiated to $21,000 with only Sarah Johnson.
A motion was made by Tom Brown and seconded by Kris Brieske to approve the Park & Rec Department monthly report. Motion carried 7-0.
A motion was made by Tom Brown and seconded by Mark Jacobs to approve the Golf Curse Superintendent’s monthly report. Motion carried 7-0.
