Fire Steering Committee
WS 1
TITLE OF ISSUE:
Fire District Study Update
BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION:
The Fire Steering Committee recently took in a presentation from their consultant, Fitch & Assoc., on the
results of their study of the Fire District operations. Several options for the future structure of the department
are being considered. Among those options are various forms of collaboration with regional partners, such as
the Spring Lake Park/Blaine/Mounds View (SBM), Lino Lakes, and Hugo Fire Departments, respectively.
Staff are engaged in discussions with those agencies to explore shared services ranging from day-time
duty-crew to training, administration, and inspections. The committee has expressed its unified desire to keep
the district in tact and remain open to collaborative efforts that increase our level of service and/or save
substantial costs.

been given in the past but thanked Council Member Montain for his donation(s) back to the City.
Mayor Love stated that as Mayor, he attends numerous meetings, deducts his mileage on his taxes
which he feels is sufficient. Consensus of Council was that the Commission could consider not
providing a stipend, reimburse for mileage or it was the appointed

VIII.OLD BUSINESS
1. Resolution #20-023 - Adopting the Preliminary 2021 General Fund Budget
Administrator Statz explained that every year at the end of September the City was required to
adopt a Preliminary Budget & Levy. He stated that this information is forwarded to the State of
Minnesota for their approval to spend and Anoka County as this is what will be charged through
taxes for property owners within the City. He stated that the City is taxing the same as what we
are budgeting meaning a balanced budget of 2.7 million dollars. He also stated that staff and
Council have developed a balanced budget with a slight increase in the tax levy from last year.
Finance Director DeJong stated that there was a modest increase in levy overall (slightly under
$24,000 or .9%) higher than the property taxes levied in 2020. He pointed out several items that
were discussed in the memorandum presented to Council and stated that it is a responsible budget
in the short term and long term, fully funding operations, with contingencies for Capital Projects
($50,000). He stated that if contingency is not needed, it can be removed from the levy for the
following year. He stated that the City has a strong tax collection rate (99%) over the past three
years and explained that with COVID or economic
able to pay their taxes, the City has sufficient fund balances to cover short-term drops (not
generally over 2%) for the next few years. He stated that it is not just the General Fund but the
Water and Sewer Funds also. He also stated that there are a lot of cash reserves that are invested
over the next five (5) years earning reasonable interest rates that meet cash flow projections which
show the City earning 1% over the next several years. He reported that the State is experiencing
financial challenges and there may be a move to reduce Local Government Aid payments in
December. He stated that if that happens, it is believed that the City is more than sufficiently

Council Meeting Minutes

covered for a decrease of up to 20%. He stated that if it is more than that, Staff would bring it
before Council for addressing the shortfall.
Finance Director DeJong stated that the City has strong cash flow, good investments spread out at
decent rates, is investing responsibly, has reviewed their Enterprise Funds ensuring that there are
ons and ensuring that if funds drop below the
targeted level of Fund Balance, there is a plan for raising them back up with modest changes in
any additional fees. He commended the Council for putting together a very responsible budget
and being very respectful of what is going on by having a Levy increase of less than .9%.
Mayor Love stated that the budget is in very good shape due to planni
over the years and that he is very proud of that fact.
Council Member Koski thanked Finance Director DeJong for the explanation and presentation.
nvestments were guaranteed/variable. Finance Director DeJong
stated that they are fixed rate interest investments and that
commercial banks which are covered by FDIC limits. He also stated that staff does not invest
more than $250,000 in any given CD in case there is a problem with the bank. He stated that the
at different times, allowing the ability to take
advantage of the short-term increases in the market rate(s). He stated that his most recent
investment was at .8% interest which is slightly below the 1% interest used in projected
calculations. He reported that this is variable as several investments exceed the 1% interest rate.
He stated that the City is in good shape. Council Member Koski briefly mentioned an article that
he had read in the League of MN Cities, Minnesota Cities Contents (Sept./Oct. 2020) edition,
Cities Brace for Financial Impact of COVID-19 and stated that it was very interesting in the
environment that we are in and that the City of Centerville is sitting in very good shape. He
recommended the article. He also stated that the City has two (2) levies; one (1) for the General
Fund and one (1) for Debt Services. He noted that the debt service is what the City is paying for
bonds/loans. Finance Director DeJong commented that the debt services is for principle and
interest on funds that the City has borrowed. Council Member Koski stated that $378,189 is paid
yearly. Council Member Koski desired to inform the public that the City has paid/refinanced these
bonds to decrease its outstanding debt over the y
in decreasing its debt.
Council Member Montain stated that through the discussions he was content at where the
Preliminary Budget and Levy are at. Council Member Wilharber stated that he echoed Council
bt levels and complimented Staff, previous
r decreasing these levels and paying cash for
projects. He stated that this was much appreciated as a Council Member and as a resident of the
City. Mayor Love thanked staff for the memorandum and stated that it is really good for the City
to look at the future and its possibilities. He stated that it is good to know that the City is in good
shape and knowing that the City will be able to withstand potential difficult times associated with
COVID or other issues that may impact the City. Mayor Love desired for the public to know that
numerous Work Sessions were held where robust discussions have taken place regarding this item
and that is the reasoning for limited discussion this
place at that level.

Improvements was discussed earlier in the work session. He stated that the contractor, Crawford
Merz, who is completing the Council Chambers and Lobby areas of the City Hall renovation
project had submitted costs associated with the addition of the office area. He stated that Staff has
reviewed the costs and stated that the City would be foregoing most funding for reimbursement of
ciated with COVID-19, (duties that need to be completed due to
COVID-19 and not generally completed by staff: i.e., sanitizing of counters and doors, accounting
and training for COVID-19 expenditures, etc.) He stated that Change Order #1 would utilize a

public providing separation. Administrator Statz shared the existing floor plan and a revised floor
plan for Option #1 showing the removal of the current (2) back offices and relocating them, adding
one (1) additional office, moving the kitchen and A/V room, adding an egress emergency door,
include a conference area which would cost
$150,000. He reported that this is in addition to the lobby and Council renovation.
Mayor Love stated that this was discussed earlier during the Work Session. Council Member
Montain stated that because if involves CARES Act Funding he voiced that he was conservative
on the spending of these funds, he felt that the project would be going forward, but was concerned
if there was a split vote would it affect additional funding in the future. He stated that he was not
against the project or CARES Act Funding. He also stated that the project was viable, well thought
out, looked at thoroughly and done within a budget which he likes. Finance Director DeJong stated
that it does not need to be a unanimous decision. Mayor Love thanked Council Member Montain
for his thoughts, opposition and stated that they are valued. Council Member Wilharber felt that
it was a well laid out plan with the emergency exit, moving of the A/V room, a good proposal and
thanked staff for compiling the information. Mayor Love stated that he again is stating that the
City is eligible to submit staff time for CARES Ac
as these feel more realistic and with this project these are expenditures for real things that would
be benefiting our City and the health of our staff.

Council Meeting Minutes
September 23, 2020
City Administrator Statz stated that the contractor is in the middle of the project to increase the
r Reuse System located at LaMotte Park. He
stated that the system is being expanded to the Hidden Spring Park, Church of St. Genevieve and
to gain additional storm water credits allowing future development
of the downtown area allowing development without the need for construction of storm water
ponds. He also stated that several months ago, it was considered to place a meter on the system
allowing for accurate documentation of gallons pumped. He explained that staff had been
researching meters, vendors and planned on placing a meter on the existing system to ensure
accurate pumping levels along with
once the project was started, discussions took place with the contractor to recommend metering
equipment. He stated that staff felt that a third party vendor was not an appropriate option and that
research would integrate into the existing syst
Administrator Statz stated that there were minor modifications that needed to be made as with any
project once it is started.
Council Member Koski stated that the meter had not been included in the original bid because a
preferred vendor had not been agraced in there to cover this.
Administrator Statz stated that we could have included as an allowance for the item; however staff
overlooked its inclusion. He stated that the research had been completed, paused and then when
this project came forward, it was an oversight. He also stated that the equipment is a bit of a
specialty item, but the contractor is very comfortable with the equipment recommended and slated
for installation. Council Member Koski stated the only reason he brought the item up was there
are surprises and he understands that things come up but would like to limit them and have them
up front if possible. Discussion ensued regarding measuring the amount of water pumped
previously, calculations for the amount of pressure versus run time, metering proposed for
for retracting credits for years, etc. Council
Member Montain asked what if the City is under stating or over stating gallons pumped, if it is in
ated, but what if less th
numbers do not work in its favor. Administrator Statz stated he would rather know now than being
in a dispute over the next development with Rice Creek Watershed District. Council Member
Montain stated that a bigger concern is to do our due diligence, to be the most efficient and
effective that we can and stated that he has appreciation for the project. Council Member
Wilharber stated that the overall project was great, by using water and spraying it out, that the
existing system has been installed for over 10 years, its importance, that the costs associated with
metering and minor modifications were well thought out for having an official record.
Motion by Council Member Wilharber, seconded by Council Member Montain to Approve
the LaMotte Park Irrigation System - Change
as Presented. A roll call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members Koski, Montain,
& Wilharber voted in favor. Motion carried.

Administrator Statz stated that with the Gove
that restaurant and bar capacity do not exceed 50% capacity. He also stated that many
communities are considering reducing their On-Sale liquor license renewal fees by the same
percentage for 2021.
He stated that the City has three (3) On-Sale liquor licenses with each license being $2,500 for the
year and if the establishment has a Sunday license, an additional $200/year. He reported that these
fees are paid to the City. He explained that if an establishment had a 2 AM liquor license, fees go
directly State. Administrator Statz stated that if Council chose to approve reduced fees for renewal
for 2021, a savings of $1,350 to each licensee would be experienced and a total loss of $4,050 to
the City. He stated that this would be loss of revenue from the General Fund.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Lakso to approve a
reduction for On-Sale liquor license fees by 50%, ($1,350/ea.) for the 2021 Renewal Period.

2. Downtown Street & Utilities Improvements - Turf Restoration
Administrator Statz stated that pavement is down and that the project was moving at a good pace.
He stated that the contractor is backfilling the curb and completing turf restoration. He reported
that the contractor was experiencing difficulty obtaining sod for the project and that the contractor
was concerned about the timeline for placement prior to freezing weather which is unsuitable for
proper growth. He stated that a decision was made to approve hydro-seeding, deviating from the
contract, rather than placing sod so late in the year. Administrator Statz stated that the hydro-
seeding will take longer to establish, but is a heartier product for lack of moisture and maintenance.
He reported that residents would receive a savings on their assessments for the associated
modification. He stated that hydro-seeding would save approximately $15,000. He suggested
that 50% of that should be passed on to those receiving assessments associated with the project.
Administrator Statz stated that business were assessed 50% of the project and residential
properties were assessed 20% of the project costs. He reported that individual property owners
would receive approximately a $200 credit. He also stated that credits would vary based on the
original assessment amount.
Steve King, 1724 Sorel Street, asked what would stop weeds from growing in the backfilled areas
and whether the hydro-seed was mixed with a weed preventative. Administrator Statz stated that
if weeds grow in these areas the contractor will have to address with a weed killer. Council
Member King was concerns for costs of the weed killer. Administrator Statz explained that there
were way of addressing weeds and that it would be
would be addressed throughout the coming spring and summer. Several Council Members felt
that their projects that involved hydro-seeding as restoration went very well and they were happy
with the product. Council Member Koski thanked Council Montain and Wilharber for their
personal experiences and he stated that he found them to be helpful.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Lakso to Approve Credits
for Assessments Associated with the 2020 Downtown Street & Utility Imp. Project for One
Half of the Savings for Switching from Sod to Hydro-Seeding (Approx. $15,000) with

II. ITEMS OF DISCUSSION
2. COVID Mitigation Strategy
Administrator Statz stated that the renovation project at City Hall is moving forward and makes
sense to sketch out a plan for city offices with the surge in cases of COVID. Having a safe work
place for all employees by setting up separate office spaces where employees have social distance,
move the kitchen area back into the back corner and the copier up in the front office by the
Reception area. If staff is not comfortable about working in the offices, they could continue to
work from home and do a rotation basis to serve the public. Administrator Statz also commented
what would be the most effective and safe way for the public to engage in public meetings.
a. City Hall Re-Opening
Council Member Koski stated that he would like to wait until January to have in person Council
meeting. Council Member Wilharber agreed that waiting until January or February to have in

person council meeting would be a good idea. We need to keep everyone safe. He mentioned
that we do not know where people have been.
b. In-person Council/Committee Meeting
Mayor Love stated whether in person meetings or broadcasting meeting the technology is in place.
Mayor Love commented on temperature check on employees and committee Member before each
meeting. Administrator Statz stated that would be a good idea but not fail safe being that some
ght direction. Council Member Koski stated that
offsite meeting (via zoom) are easier to attend, especially when you are traveling. Administrator
Statz agreed with Council Member Koski. He stated that zoom meeting works well to observe but
are tricky to participate and ask questions.
Council Member Lakso stated in this format, work
the challenges of more considerations. She commented the state government is looking at opening
up sometime in June or July of 2021. They are not in a rush to open being that the number of cases
are unknown. She commented that maybe we should wait to see what the new council would like
and make a decision at that time or if the plan needs to be modified do so then. We have received
notifications from the police department about the number of sicknesses. Administrator Statz
stated this was a good suggestion and it would be interesting to know how many cases are in our
area. Council Member Lakso stated that the school district is going back to distance learning due
to the number of cases. Council Member Koski stated the work is getting done with Zoom, but
with council.
Council Member Montain stated that everyone needs to be informed. The committees have
liaisons and they report back council. The ad
including businesses and residents. He stated that everyone on council are informed and feels the
line and the newsletter. Council
Member Koski stated we need to continue to strive to keep the community updated. Council
Member Wilharber mentioned keep an ear open to the public as to their concerns. Sometimes they
feel that things are being hid. They will always say that others are doing things differently. Mayor
Love commented last year retreat was nice and would like to do so again but not at this point. He
would like to have another retreat with the department heads and chairs of the each committee bi-
annually and to see where things are going and collaborate and synergy. Council Member
Wilharber mentioned Lino Lakes has individual pictures of their council. Mayor Love stated that
head shot to click on to bring them to their
email/telephone number. We want to hear from the public. It is important to us. Administrator
Statz stated he would like to put together another retreat but as a zoom meeting for the new
Members of council and committee Members to bring them up to speed on things that are
happening in the City.
3. Civil Unrest Preparedness
Administrator Statz commented on what happened in the City of Hugo in regards to the protest
that happened in a residential area. He stated that issue is very broad and wanted it to be brought
up for discussion only. He stated the ordinance attempts to address growing concerns during this

in a business district than a residential district.
If a protest happens at a person home, we need to make sure they are safe and the residents around
them are also safe. We should be prepared for such situations. Mayor Love stated the majority of
council hears our neighbors in Hugo talk about how extensive and bad this was. He is glad that
we are having conversations even though we do not have diverse community like others areas. We
should be prepared. Council agreed with Mayor Love that they should have a plan in case this
happens in Centerville. Council discussion ensued.
Mayor Love adjourned work session at 6:16 and with a 14 minute recess before starting council
meeting.

2.
Administrator Statz stated as the renovation is taking place is was noted that our fire alarm system
is very outdated but do not necessarily have code violation. He stated that the smoke detectors in
City Hall are approximately 30 years old and need to be replaced. Co-Fire Chief Kathy Peil did a
full inspection and gave recommendations. We ran this by our engineer and architect and they
came up with a set of modest improvements where we would reuse some of our current equipment
of these items have been moved for example the exit signs and lights. This was bided out in 2
ty Hall side and the other was the Fire Department. He felt staff
would like to recommend to do all at once. Administrator Statz gave a little bit of history of the
building when it was built. They had a monitoring
there is a junction box that has an alarm monitoring system. As of now, if they were a fire, no one
rd
would know because this was not hooked up. The system would allow to have a 3 party
monitoring the alarms and would notify if they went off.
Council Member Koski stated that he does not understand why these change orders come up as
they should be a part of the original bid and not tag on afterward. He believes fire safety is
Page 5 of 11
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
October 28, 2020
important. How did this get over looked? He stated that $15,000 was high but also stated that he
does not know a lot about fire alarm systems. He questioned does this really cost this much and
we were able to use any of our old system. If we are going to have a monitoring system is there
going to be a fee tied to that se paying for monitoring service
in the past but never using it. Administrator Statz explain the monitoring fees is approximately $20
to $30 a month. He also stated that some of the equipment is being reused as mentioned before.
He said that most of the wiring for this had been reused. As for the cost, the contractor went out
and received 2 bids and they were within $5 of each other. Administrator Statz is confident that
the price is where it should be. He stated this is in a fire suppression system
ponents: emergency lights, auditable & visible
alarm, smoke detectors/CO2 detectors and exit signage. This is for the whole building not just City
Hall. Council Member Koski asked how many smoke & CO2 detector is being added.
Administrator Statz stated that they are adding 4 or 5 more. One in each office.
Council Member Montain stated that he is all for the project but questioned about the water
monitored in there? Administrator Statz stated that was a good questions
and he believes that they did cover that area and was not sure about the chemical room. He will
follow up with that next time.
Council Member Lakso stated with fire safety we pay now or pay later. We rather pay now. She
is for the project.
Council Member Wilharber is for the project.
Mayor Love stated Administrais the wrong way but his very
disappointed we did not have a more robust system in place previously. He stated that public safety
at City Hall is very important. He also stated that it was hard to hear that we do not have this
system currently. He thanked Administrator Statz for mentioning that there was a secondary bid.
He stated City Hall is our responsibility but wto the fire station for
this upgrade. Administrator Statz mentioned that in our GPA for the fire department there is a
threshold of over $5,000 each city is responsible for their portion. Each City owns their own
building. The fire service does not own the building so it becomes the City responsibility.
Maintenance things he would put on the fire budget.
Council Member Koski asked is there anything that needs to be reviewed that we should add to
this before we continue the project. Administrator Statz stated that we are going to be getting new
furniture but this was accounted for in the budget.
Council Member Wilharber asked what about a security system. Administrator Statz explained we
ont and that door being that they are the 2 places
where there is access into the building. In the future, he would like to look at installing a camera
system.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Wilharber to Approve the
Replacement as Presented. A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members
Koski, Lakso, Montain & Wilharber voted in favor. Motion carried.

3. Re: Outside Storage in the Industrial
District (I-1)
Administrator Statz stated that there have been a number of ordinances that we are looking at. One
is the outdoor storage. It lacks specifics regarding outdoor storage. Outdoor storage is allowed in
to how much outdoor storage or whether or not
you need a principal structure. There are side references to this. It talks about setbacks to principal
structure and how. It talks about outdoor storage and the screening you need. This is not as explicit
as we would like it. You cannot just have outdoor storage on your property. You would need a
principal structure before you are allowed that. They would like to make a couple of quick changes
to the industrial code to protect the City from the giant parking lot of junk or even not junk and/or
a little tiny building or no building at all. Administrator Statz stated they checked around our
neighboring towns and Lino Lakes has 2.5:1 standard. For example: our commercial district has a
outdoor storage which is pretty common in commercial districts. In an industrial district you would
expect more outdoor storage per square foot of building and so Lino Lakes has 2.5:1standard. We
felt that this was fair and it was the higher of any of the other communities. He thought Hugo had
a 1:1. He stated in the packet he used Ruffridge Johnson as an example site and you can see what
their outdoor storage looks like to date. We do have a definition in their CUP that defines outdoor
storage and what is not. He stated that 2.5:1 is pretty restrictive but is similar to Lino Lakes and
general cities. Two main things that we want to make clear: Outdoor storage is an accessory use
only and making sure we have a limitation on the outdoor storage at 2.5:1 so we have some
substantial investment in the property in terms of building so that it provides some taxable value.
They will come back to council in the future with more details on this ordinance. Finally, they are
not looking to do a second reading on this ordinance, but looking for this ordinance to pass tonight,
then published to make sure we are protected.
Council Member Koski stated that Planning and Zoning had a good discussion on all of these
public hearings and ordinance revisions. He stated this particular ordinance we are doing the right
thing in cleaning things up and being more specific. We want to be business friendly and
accommodating. The reality is we have a limited number of commercial spaces in town.
Council Member Montain asked how many current commercial businesses do not have a CUP that
would not comply. Administrator Statz stated it would be substantial for ex
probably 10:1, Sheehy Construction would be grandfathered in. If
they were to sell to a manufacturing, this would go away. Council Member Montain stated that
Mortenson public areas are very clean, well-kept and shielded. Administrator Statz stated the CUP
will transfer as long as the use stays the same.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Lakso to Approve
Code Regarding: Outside Storage in the
Industrial District (I-1). A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members
Koski, Lakso & Wilharber Yay & Montain Nay, 4 to 1 voted in favor. Motion carried.
4. City Code Regarding: Main Street
st
Commercial District (B-2); Table 156-A-1 Table of Allowed Uses (1 Reading)
Page 7 of 11
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
October 28, 2020
Administrator Statz stated that the Planning & Zoning Commission recommended that a change
be made regarding the Main Street Business District
Nursing Homes and Special Care Facilities. He stated that what the Commission desired to do
remove these uses from the table. He stated that some areas of the Commercial District set back
from Main Street that could allow for the previously stated uses. Administrator Statz stated that
the reason for this modification was that prime real estate exists along Main Street which should
be more retail intensive. Administrator Statz stated that commercial land is becoming more sought
after and there are very few parcels for those types of businesses. He stated that Centerville is very
retail poor compared to other cities and the Code amendment will ensure this type of development.
Council Member Koski agreed with Administrator Statz regarding the limited amount commercial
properties available. He stated that the types of uses would fit better not along Main Street. He
Mayor Love stated that he does not desire to discourage building but would prefer to have a
strategic plan for particular types of businesses going forward. He stated that rules and regulations
need to be in place. He also asked if Council needed to take action this evening on the proposed
amendment. Attorney Glaser stated that Council did not, but that the law is not stringent or are
there penalties if you decide to take action this evening. He stated that action upon a second
meeting would be advisable. Council Member Koski stated that no individuals were at the public
hearing to provide input even though there was an opportunity to residents to provide input.
Council Member Montain stated that best practice would be to have a second reading. Council
Members Lakso and Council Member Wilharber concurred.
Steve King, 1724 Sorel Street, stated that for profit and non-profit businesses could change this
mid-stream. Mr. King asked if zoning could be changed as a matter of fact and how are taxes
affected. State that the City should take into account reasoning when rezoning property and
district along with their locations. Attorney Glaser stated that many cities have difficulty with

Health (1st Reading)
Administrator Statz stated that the existing code does not technically address mowing of the grass
in your yard and addresses the length of weeds not grass. He stated that it is very difficult to
enforce the code if it is not clear. He stated that existing code had been utilized for undeveloped
lots (Pheasant Marsh) control weeds and mowing of the boulevard. He reported that the Planning
was added to the existing code it would be
sufficient.
Council Member Koski stated that there was discussion at the Commission level regarding
prairie/decorative/ornamental grass and natural yards as there is one (1) in town on Old Mill Road
with others having areas of these types of grass. Discussion ensued that the code is not for
individuals that have gone out of town for a short period of time but more for foreclosure situations,
or unkept yard, vacant lots, etc. Discussion also included the City mowing its property to a length
short enough to require less cuttings decreasing costs associated with mowing services and
assisting with its budget.
Mr. Steve King, 1724 Sorel Street, commented that natural prairie grass or prairie restoration
should be clarified so that there is no misunderstanding as to what is allowed or not. Administrator
Statz stated that there was discussion at the Planning & Zoning Commission regarding the
exclusion of rain gardens and pollinator friendly areas and that he would have to revisit that.
Mayor Love stated that this is the beauty of first and second reads as it allows for after thoughts or
modifications.

TITLE OF ISSUE:
Utility Billing Refund - 7026 Centerville Road - Great Lakes Mgmt. (Chauncey Barett - Anoka County HRA)
BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION:
At the end of December, staff encountered an error on the above stated account. This account is unique because
it is a multi-family residence with one (1) water meter requiring a unique rate code in our utility billing system.
In late 2017 (Nov./Dec.) the billing was modified to reflect our new rate tier(s) from a single-family residence
multiplied by the number of apartments (16). During this entry, a decimal placement error was made. Upon
researching the account, the error has been carried forward to date and a credit should be issued in the amount
of $10,033.32 for overcharges. The error has been corrected to ensure accurate billing going forward. Staff has
reviewed other accounts and found their billing structure to be accurate.
COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING:
Water Fund - 601 ($10,033.32)
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
Motion to Issue Payment in the Amount of $10,033.32 to Great Lakes Management (Chauncey Barett-Anoka
County HRA) for overcharges on Account #01-00004396-00-1.
