Mayor Sipma presiding and led the

City Council in the Pledge of Allegi-

ance. Mayor Sipma described some

of his meetings and activities over

the past month. He also said, there

were numerous meetings, phone

calls, e-mails, and individual contact

concerning City business. Olson

moved Podrygula seconded and

was carried unanimously to approve

the following Mayoral appointments:

Heating and Air Conditioning Board-

Floyd Hanson and Martin Wolf;

MAGIC Fund Committee- Jarid Lun-

deen. The City Manager Report was

delayed due to technical difficulties.

Wolsky mentioned that he wanted to

bring up an issue during the City

Manager Report. He said, the com-

munity is on alert for flooding so he

wants the City to stay in front of how

we anticipate responding to a flood

emergency should one arise. He

emailed the Council a Flood

Management Plan from Fargo’s

website as an example the City of

Minot should follow. He said, Minot

has a very similar plan but he would

like to see more publicity around it

and have it more easily accessible

on the website. The City Attorney

provided a written report. Wolsky

moved Pitner seconded and was

carried unanimously to approve a

subdivision of unplatted portions of

the SE1/4NE1/4SE1/4 of Section

34-155-82W to create outlot plats for

proposed Outlots 22 and 23; adopt

resolution no. 3636 for a CUP for in-

door self-service storage and out-

door storage of RVs, boats, automo-

biles, and related recreational

vehicles/items on property zoned

M1. The City Council held a public

hearing to consider a request to

pass an ordinance to rezone a por-

tion of Outlot 7 in Section 14-155-83

from R3B to C2. Chad Thompson, of

525 Hilltop Street NW, came forward

in favor of the zone change. He

said, they plan to develop the corner

into a commercial property,

multi-tenant building around

6,500-7,000 square feet. Olson

moved Pitner seconded and was

carried unanimously to close the

public hearing and place and pass

ordinance no. 5420 on first reading

to rezone a portion of Outlot 7 in

Section 14-155-83 from R3B to C2;

subdivide Lot 1, Boyce’s Addition,

together with a portion of Outlot 7 in

Section 14-155-83 to create McHen-

ry Addition, Lot 1. The City Council

held a public hearing to consider a

request to pass an ordinance for a

zone change from R1 to MH to lo-

cate a manufactured home on pro-

perty located at 3465 47th Street,

SE. Al Fisher, Gary Kramlich, Willi-

am Erdman, Michael Power, Paul

Wilkins, and Pete Hoffart spoke in

support of the zone change. Mr.

Lang gave a summary of the Plan-

ning Department’s findings. He said,

the current ordinance does not allow

manufactured homes in R1 zoning.

At one time, they were allowed but

currently are not. In 1962, the area

was under the jurisdiction of the

County which permitted manufac-

tured homes in R3, single-family

zoning. In about 1975, it was in-

cluded in the ETA under City jurisd-

iction and was classified

single-family zoning under the City

Code which does not allow

manufactured homes. Several

homes were allowed by Special Use

Permit or after the flood. The recent

addition of a manufactured home

was permitted under Chapter 25 of

the Zoning Ordinance under

non-conforming uses. As long as the

old unit which was a legal

non-conforming use, was moved

out, a new one can replace it. There

is a history of a mixture of uses but

for staff to make a recommendation,

the Comprehensive Plan is usually

used as a reference. This area is not

addressed in the Comprehensive

Plan however so there is no recom-

mendation for a highest and best

use for this area. The neighbors

seem to be supportive; a petition

was included in the Council’s infor-

mation. Mayor Sipma asked about

restrictions for construction in the

newly revised flood plain, to which

Mr. Lang said, if anything is moved

in, it will have to comply with the

new rules whether it is stick built or a

manufactured home. Wolsky asked

about the use of spot zoning and

whether it is an issue in this case.

Mr. Lang replied by saying, spot

zoning is not necessarily illegal but

the argument is that it would be

treating a single parcel differently

than the area around it and is not in

conformance with the Comprehen-

sive Plan. In this case, there is no

Comprehensive Plan and there are

quite a few lots with manufactured

homes. One option that was dis-

cussed with the applicant, was to

talk with others who have manufac-

tured homes and see if they wanted

to be included on the application for

rezoning as well. Since Mr. Wilkins

lives in Bismarck, he decided not to

do it. Wolsky moved Olson second-

ed and was carried unanimously to

close the public hearing and place

and pass ordinance no. 5421 on first

reading to change the zone from R1

to MH to locate a manufactured

home on Eastside Estates, Lot 7,

Block 2. Olson moved Pitner

seconded and was carried unani-

mously to approve the minutes of

the September 16, 2019 regular City

Council meeting and the September

23, 2019 special City Council meet-

ing; approve the bills and transfers

as listed for September in the

amount of $8,035,384.43.

Pitner seconded and after discus-

sion carried unanimously to award

the bid to Butler Machinery in the

amount of $37.09 per edge for cut-

ting edges. Wolsky said he would

like to see a database comparing

the quantities of supplies used for

snow removal on a year to year

basis, including the number of

blades used, tons of sand and salt

used etc. He said it would help to

have a comparison when consider-

ing budgeting each year. The Public

Works Director stated, the informa-

tion was included in the department

report that was presented to the

Council last year but he can send

the information again. Wolsky sug-

gested it be available on the City

website. Podrygula said, he is the

representative on a committee that

is evaluating programs exactly like

Wolsky is requesting, which will

make information easily available to

the public. The program should be

brought before the Council in the

next few months. Wolsky moved, Ol-

son seconded and was carried

unanimously to authorize auction of

property structures at 314 8th Street

NE and 1030 6th Avenue SW ac-

quired through the Involuntary Ac-

quisition program for flood control

projects. Wolsky stated, Straight re-

quested the item be pulled in order

to bring up an issue about demoli-

tion. He raised concerns about a

home that was demolished but the

open basement was left in place.

The City Manager said, it is the at-

tempt of staff to close safety hazards

and he will follow up on the issue to

ensure it does not happen again.

The City Manager presented his re-

port since the network was back on-

line. He began by listing the dates of

upcoming meetings. October 15th is

the Chamber monthly meeting, fol-

lowed by the Chamber Annual Meet-

ing October 16th. The next City

Council meeting is October 21st,

MAGIC Fund meeting October 25th,

and Planning Commission October

28th. There will be a Main Street

Summit in Bismarck October 29th

-31st. He gave construction updates

which have all been affected by the

poor weather. Flood Control project

MI-1 is currently 2-3 weeks behind

but 3rd Street should be open at the

end of the month. The contractor

has begun a series of soil correction

measures to pass required stan-

dards. MI-2/3 is continuing with the

flood walls and pump station and

crews are working on underground

utilities. Due to delays as a result of

the weather, 16th will likely continue

with head-to-head traffic through Oc-

tober. The contractor on the Broad-

way maintenance project has

worked odd hours to try and catch

up after the rain caused delays. The

goal is to reach 20th Avenue but

anything unfinished will pick up in

the spring. Mr. Barry discussed the

Sister City Visit that took place dur-

ing Hostfest. There were several

representatives from Skien and

there were six full days of activities.

He gave an update on the Census

2020 Complete Count Committee;

An update on NDR activities; Up-

dates on various committees in-

cluding the Buy Local Task Force

which has been formed to discuss

buy local preference opportunities,

the Nuisance Properties Task Force,

now called Problem Properties Unit,

is working to identify properties in

the city that are out of compliance

costing the City’s resources, time,

and money. He provided updates

from each of the Performance Im-

provement Teams: The Community

Engagement Focus Group, The Em-

ployee Improvements Team, The Fi-

nance Improvements Team, The

Operational Improvements Team

and The Customer Improvements

Team. Mr. Barry then reviewed Key

Performance Indicators and listed

the goals of the management team.

He said they intend to improve

knowledge and understanding of

operational systems and move to

become a more data driven organi-

zation. It will enable the City to make

better decisions and adaptively

manage for results. He then

described how the City is preparing

to handle the upcoming snow in the

forecast for later this week. He ex-

plained the snow plan in detail. The

City Manager then congratulated

staff for winning the APWA Project

of the Year award for the Downtown

Revitalization project. The Library

was awarded the Library

Association’s Library Champion

Award. The Library has also been

celebrating their volunteers who

have served hundreds of hours and

hold remarkable value for the ser-

vice of the Library. There were two

volunteers honored during a

ceremony at the Library. Donald

Tank and Carol Stolt “retired” after

serving thousands of hours over a

couple decades, to the Minot Public

Library. Mr. Barry announced the

Main Street Summit which will take

place October 29-31 in Bismarck

and concluded by reminding the

public that a conversation on recy-

cling will take place at the October

21st City Council meeting. Jantzer

and Straight joined the meeting via

teleconference at 6:48 pm. Pitner

reminded the public that it is fall

clean up week and items should be

placed on the curb and not in the al-

ley. Podrygula moved Pitner

seconded and after discussion was

carried unanimously to grant appro-

val of a lease agreement with the

DBPA for lease of storage space in

the Central Parking Ramp. Po-

drygula said, it is good to see in-

come being generated at the parking

ramps. He also requested an update

in the near future regarding signage

and security issues as well as usage

percentages. The City Manager pro-

vided a brief update by saying, the

temporary roof projects should be

completed by year’s end. The secu-

rity cameras have been identified

and specifications completed and

staff has been directed to review sig-

nage options. Olson moved Po-

drygula seconded and was carried

unanimously to approve the land

rent extension with Laverne Mikkel-

son. Pitner moved Olson seconded

and after discussion was carried to

commence the acquisition process

for Site #1 to locate the Gathering

Space. Pitner said, the Gathering

Space Technical Review Committee

met last week with CDM Smith,

John Zakian and others to discuss

the next steps for the project. They

have reached a road block on Site

#2 relating to the discrepancy in

price between the City and property

owners and the cost reasonableness

calculation. The original offers from

the City were about $890,000 but

the counteroffers totaled $1.78 mil-

lion. It was advised that HUD would

have an issue moving forward with

the site even if the City agreed on

the counteroffers. HUD would prefer

if the City used another, less costly

site for the project, even if agree-

ments were made for Site #2. He

brought up the September 2022

deadline and said they will lose

negotiating power and cut down on

design time if they do not start mov-

ing forward. Straight asked if the

City Assessor knew what the as-

sessed value of Site #1 would be.

Mr. Ternes said, the best estimate at

this point is $830,000. Straight con-

tinued by asking if 10 percent would

be added to the amount as it was in

the previous offers. Mr. Zakian said,

this offer would not factor in the ad-

ditional 10 percent because the pre-

vious offers reflected previous year’s

assessed values. This property

would use a current assessed value

to calculate the offer. Straight asked

if there have been discussions with

Trinity on the feasibility of using this

site in a timely manner since Trinity

is working on constructing the new

hospital. Mr. Zakian said, under

HUD rules, we cannot formally ap-

proach the new property owners un-

til negotiations have officially con-

cluded with the current site. If this is

approved, the next step would be a

formal inquiry to Trinity. Wolsky

asked about the environmental re-

view since, he said, he believes the

site was the location of a former

laundromat and dry cleaner which

may provide complications for en-

vironmental reviews. Mr. Zakian

stated, the first step when initiating

the environmental review will be his-

torical analysis on the uses of the

site. If any issues arise, they will be

caught early on and assess if any

mitigation occurred. If there are any

red flags, it will be dealt with during

the environmental review process.

He wondered if cost reasonableness

would cause the same issue for Site

#1, since Site #3 may be less costly.

Cost reasonableness considers all

aspects, not only acquisition. There

is a potential disparity between the

current assessed value of Site #3

and the estimated value of Site #1,

however there are no relocation

costs and minimal demolition costs.

He said, he is comfortable based on

current analysis that it will be ac-

ceptable to HUD. Wolsky asked if

the total budget would be adequate

to complete the project and how that

issue would be addressed if it is not.

Mr. Zakian said, the budget was

developed during the application

process and when HUD gave the

City the option to downsize projects

after reducing the grant amount, it

was believed $6 million was suffi-

cient. Until the site is determined

and the design can take place, we

do not know what the actual cost will

be. There will be public input meet-

ings to get a sense of what the com-

munity is looking for and can work

within the available budget. He said,

there are similar sized spaces that

have been built for $6-$8 million and

others that cost $10-$12 million but

it depends what is included. He stat-

ed, he is not uncomfortable with the

amount budgeted at this point. He

then asked if the alternative ap-

proach, which was proposed in Au-

gust, to swap funding sources with

sales tax revenue collected for Flood

Control, has been considered. Sales

tax revenue would not be subject to

the same constraints as HUD fund-

ing and the NDR funds could be

used for acquisitions. Mr. Zakian

stated, a swap could be done but it

could trigger a substantial amend-

ment depending where funds are

moved from and to where. Mayor

Sipma commented that if they

looked at sales tax as a potential

revenue source, it could cause politi-

cal damage. He strongly cautioned

against removing Flood Control

funding, which we do not currently

have enough funding for. He said,

they are working toward a significant

piece of legislation in the upcoming

session regarding a long-term low

interest loan through the Legacy

Fund. If Minot was to divert funding

away from Flood Control it would be

a significant demonstration of our

need for State and Federal funding.

Future allocations from the State

could be affected and it would set a

bad precedence politically. Wolsky

said, he is not supportive of the mo-

tion and he mentioned the opportuni-

ty cost of various sites. He said, in

his opinion, Site #1 is the most

developable property since it is lo-

cated on Broadway. Tying it up as a

non-revenue generating parcel

would be a mistake. He compared it

to a similar parcel on Broadway to

calculate potential revenue to the

City. A similarly sized block is as-

sessed at $6.6 million and returns

approximately $116,000 annually in

tax revenue to the City. Right now,

Site #1 does not contribute any

revenue to the City because it is

parking support for Trinity’s

non-profit mission but in the future,

there is potential for development.

He said, Site #2 can be developed

within the existing buildings, taking

less off of the tax rolls. He em-

phasized the entrepreneurial spirit

flourishing downtown since the revi-

talization project was completed and

discussions about the gathering

space began. He raised concerns

that moving the location will have

unintended consequences and he

suggested they honor the invest-

ments made at Site #2. He proposed

that they reevaluate the project foot-

print to ultimately keep the project at

Site #2 and make it work within HUD

guidelines to honor the public input

that chose the site. Olson said, they

appear to be overthinking this deci-

sion. They put a good effort into Site

#2 and it didn’t work by the timeline

so they need to see if the next site

will work. Site #1 could be a gate-

way to downtown but if it too doesn’t

work, we will move on. Straight

raised concerns about negotiating

with Trinity when there is still a

question of whether or not the site

will pass the cost reasonableness

test. He asked if they could discuss

a substantial amendment to reduce

the size of the gathering space to

1.5 acres before moving forward

with other options. He said, he is not

supportive of Site #1 and said the

public isn’t either. He wants to pro-

tect the City’s image from embar-

rassment in case the project goes

poorly. Mayor Sipma said, the pro-

cess was approved in 2016 and if

not followed, a substantial amend-

ment would be rejected on premise

prior to be submitted because the

adopted process was not completed.

Cost reasonableness can be as-

sessed within the initial discussion

with Trinity determining whether or

not they would consider the acquisi-

tion. He agreed with Olson and said

that too much investment has been

made emotionally but the process

was agreed upon. The issues

brought up will be closely con-

sidered as we move forward. Po-

drygula said, they have made a

good faith effort to make Site #2

work but it simply is not working.

Now they need to follow through on

their commitment and move to Site

#1. The City doesn’t need to be em-

barrassed and if there is egg on

anyone’s face it should be on HUD

and the complexity of the process.

The City is acting on good faith but

working with HUD is challenging.

Pitner reminded what process has

taken place; they identified sites,

gathered input from the public,

negotiated on the preferred site, and

then move on to the next site and

the next site and if necessary, come

back to the table. At no point in the

process does it say to change the

rules if we don’t like the answer. He

agreed that Site #1 could be a gate-

way to downtown. It is next to a

parking ramp that will one day have

retail and commercial space. He en-

couraged the Council to follow

through with the process they

agreed to. A vote was taken on the

above motion by Pitner, seconded

by Olson and carried by the follow-

ing roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Ol-

son, Pitner, Podrygula, Sipma; nays:

Straight, Wolsky. Wolsky brought up

issues regarding construction nui-

sances, specifically construction

noise. He said, he received three

complaints this summer from ci-

tizens whose lives were disrupted

due to construction noise at unrea-

sonable hours. He said, he under-

stands the construction season is

short but believes the City can tight-

en the ordinance, which currently

has an exception for construction, to

prohibit construction during certain

hours. He mentioned a heated con-

frontation that took place at City Hall

with a citizen upset by construction

noise throughout the night. Podrygu-

la said, he appreciated the survey of

other cities that was conducted to

see how they operate. He also

brought up the fine of only $150 for

violating the noise ordinance and

said it is not a deterrence. He raised

the suggestion that if the City En-

gineer grants permits, maybe he

could set up limits for construction

activities administratively rather than

by ordinance. He also mentioned

generators causing issues and

asked if they could be hooked up to

an electric line to run power instead.

He stated, the short construction

season is not an excuse to drive

people crazy. Mayor Sipma ques-

tioned how much of a concern it

should raise since it was only three

complaints. Sometimes construction

needs to take place outside regular

hours to avoid other disruptions to

citizens. There are also instances of

loud snow removal that needs to

take place during early morning

hours but it needs to be done by cer-

tain times. In the instance of Flood

Control, the project needs to move

forward as fast as we can and he

mentioned that it is not as disruptive

as the 2011 flood was. He said that

reasonable processes can be re-

viewed but he is not comfortable

with a blanket policy to control all

construction. He also emphasized

the need to be business friendly for

private construction taking place

within the city. Wolsky said, running

a generator 24/7 is not reasonable

and he would like to see specifica-

tions included in residential projects

that include temporary electricity

service. There can be more con-

straints added. Wolsky moved Po-

drygula seconded and was carried

to direct staff to look into potential

remedies or ordinance changes and

bring proposals back to City Council

early next year. Podrygula com-

mented that just because people

don’t complain does not mean it isn’t

an issue. He would like to be

respectful of the people who live

here. Wolsky explained that a con-

stituent brought him an article from

the Wall Street Journal describing

historically low bond rates, and he

asked if it is something the City

should consider. The Finance Direc-

tor stated, the City continues to

monitor markets but at this time is

not issuing any new debt. The City

recently retired some higher interest

debt that was callable and able to be

retired early. There are additional

complications that come into play if

they decide to issue new debt before

they anticipate the need to use it. He

mentioned Flood Control as the next

major factor to go to the market but

there is a delay until the next phase.

If the City borrowed money in antici-

pation of that need, there are poten-

tial arbitrage issues to consider. He

then said, the article mentions a rate

of 3.3% but doesn’t say if those

bond issues sold at face value or at

a discount or what the rating was for

the issuing agency. There is not

enough information to make an ac-

curate comparison. Mr. Lakefield

further stated, he reached out to the

City’s advisor who said, a 20-year

term is about the maximum we

would see in the marketplace. The

cost of carrying the debt, for exam-

ple using $100 million financed at

3.3% for 50 years, as described in

the article, would carry an additional

$90 million in interest if compared to

the potential Legacy Fund loan

which is being discussed at a rate of

1.5% for 45 years. Wolsky com-

mented that he would rather see the

Legacy Fund used as well, especial-

ly to put North Dakota dollars back

into North Dakota. He then asked

about refinancing any existing debt.

Mr. Lakefield explained that the City

has already retired some bond is-

sues early with some of our higher

rate debt. The next callable issue is

several years away. Most of the

City’s debt is in the higher 2% or low

3% range. They would have to

analyze what is left on the term of

those bonds, the delta in the interest

rates, and the issuance cost to refi-

nance. He said, right now, we don’t

have that option for any of our

current debt. There being no further

business, Pitner moved Wolsky

seconded and was carried to ad-

journ the meeting at 7:58 pm
