From YouTube: City Council Meeting - 3/1/21
Description
City of Austin, Minnesota
A
A
All
right
before
we
get
the
roll
call
tom
just
want
to
explain
that
I'm
bummed
out.
I
just
started
my
quarantine
protocol
this
morning.
After
learning
that
I
had
some
close
contact
with
somebody
tested
positive,
so
I'll
be
zooming
in
and
and
council
member
at
large
austin.
If
it
does
get
awkward,
I
would
appreciate
you
maybe
stepping
in
for
me
if
you
could
but
we're
going
to
try
this
remotely.
B
B
A
Thank
you,
mr
dankert,
for
remember
I
am
number
one
looking
for
a
motion
adopting
of
the
agenda
and
the
with
the
additions.
D
A
Thank
you
item
number
three
recognition
awards.
We
have
first
off
of
the
promotion
of
officer
hartman
to
lieutenant,
and
I
really
wish
I
could
be
here
for
that
personally,
but
I'll
have
to
do
it
virtually
because
of
the
colvid
chief
mckeeken.
You
have
some
words
regarding
mr
hartman's
officer,
hartman's
promotion
to
lieutenant.
E
I
do
like
to
start
with
acknowledging
that
this
particular
opening
was
created
when
john
mueller
who's
worked
for
us
from
since
1994
retired
on
friday.
John
did
an
outstanding
job
for
us
and
we're
certainly
going
to
miss
him
as
a
department
as
a
city
in
that
role
as
a
police
officer.
E
It
does,
however,
give
an
opportunity
to
one
of
our
young
leaders
to
take
the
mantle
of
lieutenant.
That
is
the
third
highest
rank
within
our
department,
and
it's
a
good
time
for
for
mike
to
do
that.
Mike's
badge
number
is
103.,
john's
was
73
and
we're
on
badge
133
would
be
the
next
hire.
So
it
sets
up
good.
E
You
know
kind
of
in
his
career
to
go
and
do
this
well
mike
will
fill
john's
role,
we'll
still
wait
and
see
if
we'll
end
up
filling
john's
ultimate
position
at
those
34
officers,
but
mike's
been
with
us
for
quite
some
time.
He
was
our
afternoon
sergeant
for
a
number
of
years.
He
transitioned
he's
been
working
nights.
I
believe
it's
been
two
years
now,
since
he's
been
our
night
sergeant.
E
E
Now
that
he's
a
lieutenant
versus
a
sergeant
he's,
a
member
of
our
cert
team
he's
also
our
use
of
force
instructor
so
again
a
great
opportunity
and
we're
very
happy
to
promote
him
to
the
position
of
lieutenant,
and
we
generally
have
a
family
member
pin
the
bars
on
that
signify.
That
particular
rank
you'll
see
him
on
jeff's
collar
there
who's
one
of
our
other
lieutenants.
F
F
D
F
F
E
A
And
lieutenant
hartman
before
you
walk
away,
please
to
the
podium.
If
you
could
just
want
to
give
you
an
opportunity
to
you
know
tell
tell
maybe
throughout
your
career
how
impactful
the
moore
county
corrections
has
been
for
you
and
how
supportive
they've
been
for
you
lots
of
people
the
opportunity
to
mention
a
few
words
but
kudos
to
you
mike,
really
well
earned
on
the
promotion
and-
and
it's
got
to
be
an
honor
even
doubly
to
see
mckee
can
dress
up
in
a
suit
like
he
does
for
this
occasion.
A
So
but
it's
quite
an
honor
and
again
a
well
deserved
and
it's
it's.
It
means
a
lot,
I'm
sure
to
have
your
dad.
Pin
those
bars
on
you.
So
congrats.
A
And
then,
next
up
on
item
number
three,
we
have
the
austin
positive
action
coalition
bill
spitzer.
I
also
saw
danielle
nesbot
on
the
call
too.
So
these
folks
are
two
actually
very
very
positive
people
in
our
community
and
we
value
them
greatly
bill
danielle.
J
I
And
does
everybody
have
that
on
their
monitors.
I
Perfect
well,
first
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
the
thank
you
for
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
share
our
annual
report.
We
try
to
report
out
to
the
the
council
and
the
other
boards
in
austin
I've
just
kind
of
what
we've
been
doing
for
the
past
year.
I
know
we
didn't
get
an
opportunity
to
do
that
last
year
because
of
the
covid
restrictions,
so
I
will
kind
of
combined
about
18
months
worth
so.
I
appreciate
that
to
give
us
the
opportunity
to
do
that.
I
Just
a
little
brief
overview
of
what
we're
going
to
talk
about
tonight.
I
will
talk
a
little
bit
about
hope.
That's
kind
of
what
our
grant
is
is
mainly
about
is
to
try
and
to
look
at
the
hope
versus
the
concern,
but
we
also
acknowledge
that
there
are
concerns
that
people
may
have
centered
around
some
of
the
activities
that
we
do
and
also
we'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
aipac
austin,
positive
action
coalition.
I
Hopefully,
you've
heard
of
heard
of
that
before
and
maybe
something
that
you
haven't
heard
referred
to
as
the
p
I
grant,
but
that's
basically,
the
funding
behind
apac,
which
is
the
planning
and
implementation
grant
that
we
are
currently
in
we'll
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
surveying
that
we
have
done
and
what
we
plan
to
continue
to
do,
and
also
the
positive
community
norm,
messages
that
maybe
you've
seen
around
the
austin
community
and
we'll
also
talk
about.
I
You
know
what
people
can
do
as
a
community
and
what
businesses
can
do
to
help
our
our
efforts.
So
I
appreciate
that
and
that's
kind
of
what
we'll
we'll
start
out
covering
tonight.
We
want
to
start
out.
First
of
some
of
you
may
have
seen
this
graphic
before,
but
most
of
our
work
is
centered
around.
What's
called
the
science
of
the
positive,
we
start
out
with
the
spirit,
and
that
basically
gives
us
the
initiative
and
the
effort
to
talk
about.
I
You
know
why
we
want
to
do
what
we're
doing
and
then
we
back
that
spirit
up
with
with
science.
That's
where
we
do
the
data
collection
through
a
number
of
different
surveys
and
the
action
part
which
you
know
a
lot
of
times,
is
the
actual
stuff
that
you
see
around
the
community,
whether
it
be
the
billboards
or
or
some
of
the
other
posters
that
may
contain
our
messages
and
then
the
return,
basically,
you
know
was
that
effective.
Was
that
something
that
we
left
people
with
a
positive
attitude
and
positive
results.
I
So
we
base
all
of
our
work
around
the
science
of
the
positive
and,
of
course,
it's
something
that
continues
to
move
over
and
over
again.
So
once
we
reflect
on
that,
we
also
go
back
to
the
spirit.
You
know
why
we're
doing
this,
so
why
are
we
doing
it?
Well,
basically,
it's
for
the
kids.
I
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
our
young
people
that
are
healthy
and
resilient
and
productive
and
also
safe
in
our
community
and
that's
kind
of
the
driving
force
of
our
our
coalition
and
the
driving
force
of
our
efforts
for
some
of
you.
I
know
that
maybe
you're
not
familiar
with
the
p9
grant,
so
we'll
just
briefly
kind
of
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
that.
It
was
a
five-year
effort,
we're
on
4.5
years
right
now,
so
we're
on
the
final
six
months
of
the
five-year
grant.
I
Basically,
nine
other
communities
in
the
state
of
minnesota
also
received
a
similar
grant,
just
like
we
did
in
austin
here,
and
the
gold
colored
ones
are
the
ones
that
are
currently
under
the
p
I
grant
this
year.
The
red
and
the
purple
are.
L
I
Other
communities
that
took
part
in
that
in
the
past
10
years,
so
this
is
the
year
15
that
this
grant
has
been
in
effect
and
has
a
very
good
track
record
of
reducing
underage
consumption
of
alcohol
or
in
our
case
we
also
work
with
marijuana
and
vaping
as
well
as
part
of
our
focus.
And,
of
course,
as
you
can
read
on
the
screen
here,
we
also
try
to
engage
youth
in
a
student
group
at
the
school
as
well.
So
it's
not
just
centered
around
messaging.
I
I
Like
I
said
this,
this
group
is
kind
of
the
think
tank
and
the
steering
group
behind
all
of
our
efforts,
and
it
also
enables
us
to
get
a
little
pulse
of
the
community
now
most
recently.
Of
course,
we
have
been
restricted
to
zoom,
but
we
do
look
forward
to
the
time
when
we
will
be
back
in
person
surveying
all
the
stuff
that
we
do
is
based
on
data
and
I'm
kind
of
a
data
geek.
So
this
is
a
perfect
job.
For
me,
it's
based
on
different
surveys.
I
We
do
not
just
students,
but
we
also
do
parents
and
community
members,
so
we
survey
the
middle
school
students,
the
shelley
students
and
also
the
austin
high
students.
The
last
student
survey
was
done
in
2019
and
we're
set
to
do
another
student
survey
this
year
coming
up
next
month.
We
did
a
parent
survey
in
2020,
where
we
did
phone
interviews
and
we'll
share
just
a
small
little
piece
of
data
tonight
on
what
we
learned
there.
I
So,
starting
out
with
the
positive
committee
norm
student
survey,
as
you
can
see
one
of
the
things
that
is
different
from
the
way
we
report
out
compared
to
maybe
what
you're
more
familiar
with
is
we
try
to
focus
on
the
positive
like
mayor
king
had
said,
we
try
to
look
at
the
students
that
are
not
drinking
in
a
typical
month.
I
For
example,
85
of
our
high
school
students
have
said
that
they
do
not
drink
in
a
typical
month,
which
is
you
know
incredible
early
if
you
start
looking
at
it
from
that
angle,
instead
of
looking
at
the
15
15
percent,
that
said
that
they
do
now
the
one
thing
that
I'll
pay
I
want
you
to
pay
close
attention
to.
Is
we
also
ask
them
what
they
think
their
fellow
students
are
doing?
And
this
is
the
perception
data
right
here.
That's
the
64!
I
So
when
you're,
when
you
ask
them,
if
they
personally
use
alcohol
in
a
typical
month,
85
say
that
they
don't.
But
when
you
ask
them
the
question,
how
many
you
think
of
your
fellow
students
are
using
that
number
drops
to
64.?
So
what
we
call?
That
is
our
perception
gap,
and
if
we,
the
more
that
we
narrow
that
perception
gap
and
bring
it
up
to
reality,
the
less
students
that
are
going
to
be
using
also,
we
had
the
middle
school
data
and
the
combined
data.
I
I
We
also
conducted
a
parent
survey
last
year
and
just
a
little
a
bit
of
information
that
we
gathered
out
of
there.
Remember
that
statistic
that
I
just
shared
with
you
about
the
85
percent
of
the
high
school
students
that
said
that
they
did
not
drink
when
we
asked
those
community
members,
only
34
percent
of
them
guessed
that
that
was
a
the
correct
number.
So
we
still
have
a
little
bit
of
educating
to
do
from
our
community
members
to
let
them
know
what
the
reality
is,
and
sometimes
we
get
that
false
perception
that
everybody.
M
I
I
One
of
the
other
data
pieces
that
I'll
share
with
you
is
that
when
we
asked
them,
you
know
what
do
they
think
that
their
responsibility
was.
81
percent
of
our
citizens
in
austin
had
said
that
it's
part
of
their
responsibility
to
make
sure
that
you
know
our
young
people
are
health
and
that
their
well-being
is
taken
care
of,
so
that
that's
very
good.
That's
a
very,
very
caring
community
that
that
says
things
like
that.
I
So
that's
a
great
statistic
from
our
parent
survey
and
the
one
that
I'm
going
gonna
share
at
the
end.
I
I
They
support
the
coalition's
work
and
the
work
that
we're
doing
so.
That's
a
good
statistic
to
hang
our
hat
on
just
a
couple
of
things
that
we'll
finish
up
with
you
know
one
is
that
it's
it's
an
ecology
that
is
is
not
just
a
coalition.
It's
based
on
a
lot
of
different
things.
I
You,
as
council
members,
you
as
department
heads,
are
very
important
in
the
process
of
eliminating
or
reducing
the
number
of
individuals
that
are
are
consuming
underage
and
the
more
that
we
educate
and
the
more
that
we,
you
know,
increase
that
communication
and
integrate
the
the
way
that
we're
thinking-
and
you
know
just
some
leadership
decisions,
all
those
things
play
into
the
part
of
reducing
that
those
underage
consumptions,
the
more
that
we
can
use
these
positive
committee
norms,
which
is
focusing
on
the
positive
versus
the
negative.
How
do
we
do
that?
We
do
that.
M
I
Number
of
different
ways:
some
of
these
messages
you've
seen
on
billboard,
some
of
them
you
may
seen
on
flyers
or
posters
as
well.
So
that's
one
of
the
ways
that
we
do
this
so
state
fiscal
year
number
four,
the
last
year,
the
the
grant.
These
are
some
of
the
messages
that
we
put
out
there
to
try
to
educate
our
young
people,
try
to
yet
educate
our
community.
Members
of
you
know
what
the
actual
activity
is
that
that
our
young
people
are
doing.
I
I
One
of
the
things
that
we
did
was
thanked
a
lot
of
the
members
of
our
our
community
for
not
providing
alcohol
to
minors,
and
we
did
that
through
an
activity
called
sticker
shock
where
the
young
people,
along
with
the
police
officers
and
other
adults
partnered
up
with
the
liquor
stores
in
austin,
and
place
these
stickers
on
a
number
of
the
products
as
well
to
to
remind
people
not
to
to
serve
to
minors
and
also
to
say.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
for
you
know
supporting
us
in
the
work
that
we
do.
I
I
We
did
some
activities
with
the
pumpkins,
providing
that
that
ray
of
light
for
our
seniors
they
decorated,
pumpkins
and
and
gave
those
to
the
saint
mark's
residents
as
a
way
to
to
give
them
hope
in
the
things
that
we
do
the
group
in
the
center,
that
is
in
front
of
the
high
school.
That
group
went
to
ellis
middle
school
and
talked
to
the
middle
school
students
about
the
importance
of
being
an
upstander
versus
a
bystander
and
then
the
the
canoe
ride.
That
was
very
interesting.
M
M
M
I
The
89
agree
it's
important
to
have
groups
working
together.
This
is
really
important
because
we
did
an
activity
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
called
ripple
mapping,
and
this
is
so
a
lot
of
the
areas
that
we
impacted
over
the
last
five
years.
So
it
was
kind
of
impressive,
because
sometimes
we
just
think
that
it's
just
the
messages
that
we
see
on
the
billboard,
but
there's
a
number
of
different
areas
that
were
impacted
by
the
work
that
the
coalition
did.
I
I
So
you'll
have
an
opportunity
to
actually
see
what
what
our
work
was
all
about,
as
we
bring
to
a
close
one
of
the
things
that
we
talked
about
is
how
the
important
things
that
we
do
for
the
community
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we
have
some
hope,
and
this
was
some
one
of
the
activities
that
we
did
during
the
beginning
of
covet
is
some
of
you
may
have
seen
some
of
these
lawn
signs
around
the
community
and
it
all
brings
back
the
the
why
you
know.
I
Why
do
we
do
this?
It's
pretty
simple.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
our
youth,
like
I
said,
are
healthy,
resilient,
productive
and
safe.
Thank
you
to
the
mayor.
He
has
been
a
very
supportive
person
on
the
coalition,
as
well
as
the
police
chief
and
the
other
members
of
the
council
that
have
that
have
helped
us
on
behind
the
scenes.
So
we
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
for
doing
that
and
by
if
you.
I
I
So
hopefully
you
had
a
chance
to
see
this.
Hopefully
this
was
in
your
packets,
and
this
is
just
like
a
brief
synopsis
of
what
we
have
done
over
the
last
four
years
to
just
kind
of
give
you
an
idea
of
what
we
do
and
on
the
back
page,
were
some
statistical
numbers.
A
Bill
and
danielle
steve
king
speaking,
I
just
want
to
recognize
the
great
amount
of
work
that
you
folks
have
done,
leading
a
lot
of
volunteers,
certainly
in
the
right
direction.
I
think
our
student
surveys
over
the
years
bear
out
the
great
work
you're
doing
and
again,
the
the
message
of
providing
accurate
information
rather
than
perspective
is
is,
is
very,
very
positive
and
hopeful.
So
I
appreciate
the
work
you've
you've
both
done.
H
H
Do
you
guys
track
like
the
student
surveys
over
time,
where
you're
able
to
show
like
hey
it
was
72
percent
at
the
beginning
of
you
know
our
coalition,
and
now
it's
79
or
whatever.
That
is.
I
We
are
councilman
baskin
and
we're
very
excited
to
see
what
those
numbers
are
going
to
come
back
at
we'll
be
doing
those
comparisons.
After
we
get
that
data
from
this
next
survey.
I
Unfortunately,
they
tell
us
that
we're
going
to
have
to
put
an
asterisk
by
by
our
data
just
because
of
covid19,
but
I
mean
it's
going
to
give
us
a
pretty
good
idea
of
of
where
we're
at.
F
Yeah,
I
guess
councilmember
jeff
austin
here
it
says
it's
a
five-year
initiative
that
funds
this
and
you
said,
you're
on
at
you're,
four
and
a
half
what
happens
at
the
end
of
five
years.
I
Councilman
austin,
thanks
for
catching
that
we
did
have
an
opportunity
to
put
together
a
sustainability
plan.
We
started
that
about
a
year
ago
and
because
of
the
the
efforts
of
the
group,
we
were
able
to
secure
an
additional
five
years
on.
What's
called
a
drug
free
communities,
grant
the
one
major
difference
from
the
drug
free
community
grant
and
the
current
grant
that
we're
under
is
about
a
25
000
marketing
budget.
So
a
lot
of
the
billboards
and
a
lot
of
the
posters
and
things
that
you've
seen
around
the
community.
I
We
have
to
look
for
under
other
funding
sources
now
with
the
new
grant,
because
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
do
a
lot
of
those
efforts
so
we'll
do
it
the
old-fashioned
way,
because
that
works
just
as
well
hand
done
posters
or
whatever,
but
we'll
be
looking
for
other
methods
to
continue
that
marketing
campaign.
But
I
thank
you,
councilman
austin,
for
pointing
that
out
and
reminding
me
to
to
share
that
great
news,
because
we're
you're
stuck
with
us
for
another
five
years.
M
M
The
last
three
couple
month
I
did
internship
at
the
high
school
and
I
did
a
session
on
the
important
of
not
drinking
with
the
high
school
student.
I
was
amazed
with
the
rich
student
and
I
feel
that
when
you
talk
to
student
as
a
young
person,
you
know
someone
who
went
through
something
like
that
with.
M
I
think
that
session
really
brought
a
lot
of
discussion,
and
the
reaction
I
saw
from
the
student
was
really
astonishing
and
I'm
I'm
like
wow,
so
we
need
more
discussion
with
students
and
so
that
they
can
be
part
of
this
and
and
especially
in
the
in
my
community.
M
This
is
something
that
I'm
trying
to
work
with
all
the
parent,
and
you
know
to
be
part
of
this,
because
if
we
start
them
at
early
young
age
to
tell
them
important
this,
this
is
something
that
will
you
know,
prevent
more
damage
when
they're
older.
So
I
really
I'm
amazed
with
this.
Every
time
I
go
to
rochester,
I
see
those
messages
and
you
know
one
day
I
was
driving
with
my
you
know,
niece
and
I'm
like.
Do
you
see
that?
M
I
I
And
partner
with
you
to
work
with
members
of
your
community
as
well
and
reach
out
as
best
that
we
can.
O
Well,
I
love
getting
more
opinions
from
our
members
in
our
community,
so
if
anyone
on
the
council
would
like
to
sit
down
via
zoom
or
by
a
phone,
we're
doing
a
grant
requirement
of
meeting
one-to-one
with
community
members
to
get
your
opinion
about
the
work
that
we've
been
doing,
you
can
be
honest
with
us,
then
you
can.
O
Let
us
know
how
you
feel,
but
I
would
really
really
appreciate
your
input,
so
you
have
our
email
addresses
you
can
reach
out
to
us
and
say
yes,
I'd
like
to
sit
down,
it
usually
takes
about
30
minutes
and
we
actually
have
someone
at
riverland
right
now
doing
as
part
of
her
intern
hours,
and
so
I
could
connect
you
with
her
and
thank
you
for
your
time.
A
A
L
This
is
the
asphalt
that
we
use
through
our
maintenance
crews
for
roadway
patching
street
patching
and
those
things
we
have
two
bidders
locally
that
bid
this
type
of
work,
that's
yulin,
brothers,
out
of
albert
lee
or
glenville,
and
also
rochester
sand
and
gravel.
L
They
have
a
plant
near
the
stuartville
exit
at
990.,
so
looking
to
minimize
our
our
travel
time
and
also
maximize
the
the
amount
of
material
that
we
can
purchase
so
doing
that
yulin
brothers
with
a
low
bidder
when
we
incorporate
mileage,
265
320,
so
we'd
recommend
awarding
this
contract
to
yulin
brothers.
G
D
A
Thank
you,
mr
dankert.
I'm
sad
that
I'm
not
here
in
person
there
in
person
to
speak,
to
item
number
six
and
be
able
to
say
the
word
biosolids,
but
I'll
do
it
virtually.
So,
looking
for
item
number
six,
a
resolution
receiving
bids
for
the
removal
of
biosolids
stephen.
L
Yeah
oyer
trucking
has
been
doing
our
biosolids
hauling
at
the
wastewater
treatment
plant
for
the
last
many
years,
and
they
again
were
the
only
bidder
on
this
project.
They
submitted
a
bid
the
same
as
they
had
in
their
previous
two-year
contract
in
the
amount
of
698
400.
Again,
that's
a
that's
a
total
for
two
years:
2021
we
and
2022.
We
do
a
spring
and
a
fall
haul
in
order
to
make
sure
that
our
tanks
are
low
enough
to
to
handle
the
storage
that
they
need
throughout
the
course
of
the
year.
L
L
As
with
all
the
other
industries,
the
same
thing
is
hitting
the
the
sludge
hauling
industry,
where
they're
they're
having
trouble
getting
drivers
so
and-
and
some
of
them
were
looked
at
us
as
actually
a
big
project
and
they
were
sticking
more
with
smaller
type
work
and
then
to
address
your
your
comment
about
why
why
it
jumped
up.
I
think
I
think
we've
been
getting
really
good
prices
in
those
previous
years,
and
this
is
more
matching
the
industry
norm,
these
these
current
prices
that
we've
been
getting
the
last
couple
years.
L
I
think
we
just
benefited
those
previous
years
and
again.
This
is
what
we're
hearing
from
others
that
chose
not
to
bid
or
for
whatever
reason.
But
this
is
what
we're
hearing.
A
A
C
F
A
Thank
you
tom.
I
see
trish
zoomed
in
for
under
petitions
and
requests
for
motion
of
item
number,
seven
approving
the
request
for
donation
of
employee
sick
leave,
trish.
A
You
trish
this
is
very
generous
council.
Any
questions
for
for
trish,
if
not
looking
for
a
motion,
number
seven
approving
a
request
for
the
donation
of
employee,
sick
leave.
A
Thanks
tom
thanks,
I
have
a
number
eight
as
a
resolution
looking
to
accept
the
donations
of
the
city
of
austin,
and
I
don't
have
them
before
me,
but
in
review
I
believe,
they're
all
going
to
the
fire
department,
vicky
spahalski
was
25.
Could
someone
help
me
with
the
other
two
donations
to
the
fire
department?
Other
one
was
the
uniform.
C
A
G
G
We
appreciate
every
donation
we
received.
Casey's
was
doing
a
little
house
cleaning
at.
G
Donated
quite
a
large
number
of
products,
mr
roy
contacted
us
from
l.a
county
fire.
G
His
wife
had
picked
up
that
uniform
and
he
wanted
to
come
home
and
he
sent
it
to
us
paid
for
postage
and
everything
and
sent
us
that
uniform
we're
happy
to
have
it
and
we're
looking
for
a
way
to
display
it
in
the
station.
I'd
like
to
say
thank
you
to
everybody.
A
All
right,
I
appreciate
it
thanks
jim
and
thanks
for
reading
that
off
joyce.
I
do
like
to
honor
those
people
recognize
those
people
that
are
willing
to
donate
to
the
city,
so
looking
forward
to
a
resolution
at
number:
eight
accepting
donations,
the
city
of
austin,
to
move
the
resolution
paul
second,
jason
jason.
Thank
you
tom.
A
Thanks
tom
number
nine's
resolution
approving
the
2020
budget
carryovers
budget
amendment
number
one.
B
B
B
The
2020
budget
lapses
on
december
31st,
so
without
council
authorization
to
do
those
things
they
have
no
authorization
to
do
it.
So
what
budget
adjustment
number
one
does
is
amends
the
budget
in
2021
and
will
include
now
those
items
listed
that
they
would
like
to
pay
for
in
2021
that
they
didn't
get
a
chance
to
in
2020
for
one
reason
or
another,
so
we'd
request
council
approval
for
budget
amendment
number
one.
B
A
Thank
you
tom
also,
yours.
I
am
number
10
resolution
approving
the
budget.
Amendment
number
two
and
I
don't
think
that
has
anything
to
do
with
the
bio
biosolids.
I'm
hoping
not.
B
Now
these
are
all
donations
from
to
incorporate
a
the
acquisition
of
the
new
microphones
within
the
city
council
chambers
to
be
funded
from
the
cable
access
peg
fee.
The
hormel
foundation
grants
that
were
approved
for
2021,
the
city
of
austin's,
grow
austin
program
for
the
new
tech
project
and
an
internal
budget
balance
for
the
property
and
liability
insurance
fund.
B
So
what
this
does
is
will
again
amend
the
budget
for
2021
to
allow
those
things
to
be
put
in
the
budget
and
then
expended
from
the
budget,
as
listed
so
I'd
recommend
to
request
approval
of
that
budget.
Resolute
budget
amendment.
A
Thank
you,
tom.
Moving
on
to
resolution
for
item
number
11
approving
a
consulting
services
with
whks
for
phase
four
of
the
ini
program,
stephen
yeah.
L
L
We
started
in
the
southeast
quadrant
and
then
move
to
what
we
call
the
inner
southwest
and
then
in
2020
we
completed
a
majority
of
the
outer
southwest,
but
things
that
we
are
doing
as
part
of
the
project
is
we're
looking
to
reduce
clear
water
from
getting
into
the
sanitary
sewer
system
that
involves
sanitary,
sewer,
televising
manhole
inspections,
sump,
pump
inspections,
smoke,
testing,
dye
testing,
a
lot
of
different
parts
of
this
program
are
involved,
and
I'm
in
we
received
a
proposal
from
whks
in
the
amount
of
137
thousand
dollars
to
continue
this
work
in
the
northeast
quadrant
this
year,
excluding
some
pumps
in
2020.
L
We
were
not
able
to
do
sump
pumps
in
the
outer
southwest
area
due
to
the
pandemic,
so
we
put
that
on
hold
we're
going
to
start
that
up
again
this
summer
likely
around
july
1st.
So
it's
our
goal
to
get
the
southwest
quadrant
sump
pumps
finished
up
in
2020,
along
with
all
the
other
work,
except
some
pumps
in
the
northeast
quadrant
to
kind
of
keep
the
program
moving
and
in
future
years
we
will
look
to
catch
up
on
those
sump
pump
inspections
in
the
northerly
sectors.
A
L
Well,
the
the
sump
pump
inspection
is
the
one
that
we're
really
that's.
Where
we're
seeing
the
numbers
and
we're
seeing
the
positive
results,
I
have
a
chart
on
that
and
I'll
I'll
email
that
out
to
the
council.
So
you
know
I
don't
want
to.
I
don't
want
to
throw
out
a
bad
number
I'll
I'll
get
that
emailed
out
to
everyone
where
we're
at
so
far.
A
Anybody
else
want
to
play
stump.
The
engineer
feel
free.
D
Stephen,
this
is
mike
just
a
quick
because
I'm
sort
of
new
to
this-
and
I
know
you
guys-
have
been
doing
this
for
a
few
years.
Can
you
give
me
a
20
second
recap
on
what
the
process
is
and
how
folks
get
notified
and
how
they
set
up
those
inspection
times.
L
Yeah
there
are
mailers
that
go
out.
We,
we
research,
property
owner,
addresses
and
also
rental
owner
addresses
if
it's
a
rental
property,
it
goes
to
both
the
renter
and
the
homeowner
in
our.
We
have
in
our
ordinance
that
they
have
a
certain
amount
of
time
to
respond
to
that
notice.
For
the
inspection
we
actually
give
them
double
the
amount
of
time.
I
think
we
send
out
about
four
notices
to
them
before
we
would
actually
give
them
a
citation
so
the
process
we
we
give
them
a
letter.
A
L
Yeah
yeah
and
we
bring
forward
another
proposal
with
whks
because
four
years
ago,
when
we
started
that
ini
program,
we
solicited
proposals
from
multiple
contract
consultants
and
whks
came
back
with
a
a
great
amount
of
experience
in
the
collection
system
side
of
of
sanitary
sewers.
L
L
We've
got
some
maps
included
in
your
backup
material
to
show
where
that
siphon
is
located
going
underneath
the
cedar
river,
just
south
of
I
believe,
dressner
park
and
again,
as
the
mayor
mentioned
as
well.
This
siphon
has
been
in
place
since
1921,
so
100
years
of
of
use-
and
it's
been
siphons-
actually
work
very
well
when
they're
built
and
constructed
right
and
for
something
to
be
in
place
for
100
years.
You
know
it
was
constructed
well
back
in
the
days,
but
we
wanna,
the
concrete
is,
is
starting
to
deteriorate.
A
L
My
last
item
for
you
tonight
is
this
hangar
lease
agreement.
I
wanted
to
give
you
just
a
little
background
of
where
we
get
funding
at
for
operations
and
maintenance
of
the
austin
municipal
airport.
We
have
12
private
hangars
located
out
at
the
airport.
All
of
them
have
have
different
ranges
of
lease
agreements.
L
We
also
get
state
aid
maintenance
funds
for
the
airport,
as
well
as
some
property
rentals
for
some
farmland
that
the
city
owns
around
the
airport.
So
those
are
three
revenue
sources
and
we
generate
about
ninety
thousand
dollars
of
revenue
for
from
those
different
lease
and
and
state
aid
dollars,
but
that
doesn't
cover
our
full
operation
and
maintenance
cost.
We
have
about
111
thousand
dollars
of
costs
out
at
the
airport
for
electricity,
heating
maintenance,
all
of
those
things.
L
So
there
is
a
portion
of
tax
levy,
typically
about
twenty
one
thousand
dollars
a
year.
That
is
also
goes
toward
the
waste
the
airport.
So
as
we
develop
these
different
lease
agreements,
we
want
to
take
that
into
consideration
that
the
airport
is
not
self-sustaining.
L
So,
looking
looking
at
this
new
agreement
with
hormel,
they
built
their
hangar
20
years
ago.
Back
in
2001,
so
we
have
had
two
10-year
agreements
with
them,
so
the
lease
agreement,
language,
is
very
standard
to
the
way
it
has
been
previously
with
a
few
modifications,
as
I
have
shown
there
on
the
memo
one,
we
made
some
adjustments
to
their
parking
and
road
square
footage
to
better
quantify
that
with
our
new
aerial
photography,
we
were
able
to
do
that.
L
We
applied
a
three
percent
increase
to
the
to
the
previous
rent
amounts
and
calculated
new
square
footage
rates
for
them,
and
then
we
also
just
revised
the
leasi
as
they've
gone
through
some
different
management
there
at
hormel
getting
that
updated.
So
this
will
result
in
about
a
two
thousand
dollar
per
year,
increase
to
what
our
current
revenue
is
and
hormel
has
re
reviewed
this
and
they
are
in
agreement
with
the
documents,
and
we
would
recommend
approving
this
lease
agreement.
A
new
10-year
lease
agreement,
hormel
foods,
corporate
services,
llc.
A
Excellent.
Thank
you,

Thank
you
tom.
I
I'm
wondering
if
you
got
paid
by
the
amount
of
roll
calls
you
did
this
year,
would
that
be
a
better
pay.
K

For
everything
you
do
with

I

consolidation
for
hal
henderson
holly.
Q
Let
me
get
myself
lined
up
here.
All
right
we
have.
Let's
see
this
is
a
located
in
the
westridge
estates
subdivision.
This
subdivision
has
existed
for
some
time.
Q
These
parcels
are
located
between
24th
and
25th
street
southwest
the
owner
of
the
subdivision,
and
the
parcels
in
question
has
someone
who's
interested
in
buying
three
lots
in
order
to
build
a
residential
home
there,
so
the
proposed
subdivision
has
been
reviewed
by
city
staff
and
utilities.
Just
noting
that
there
are
some
existing
easements
that
should
remain.
The
buyer
and
seller
are
aware
of
those
easements
and
have
no
concerns
about
that.
Any
questions
about
the
combining
of
these
three
lots.
Q
It's
just
south
of
oakland
avenue
west
between
24th
street
and
25th
street.
There's
there's
an
aerial
there.
I
mean
it's
zoomed
in
so
it's
kind
of
hard
to
tell,
but
there's
apartments
directly
to
the
west.
D
A
It
thank
you
any
other
questions
for
holly.
If
not

for

J
Good
evening,
mayor
and
council
man,
the
pandemic
has
caused
financial
strains
for
many
many
businesses
across
the
state,
and
here
in
maui,
county
and
austin
as
well.
One
of
those
businesses
impacted
has
been
the
austin
bruins
craig
and
I
had
some
conversations
with
bruins
ownership
after
they
sought
some
forbearance
after
ice
rent,
which
has
been
mounting
since
the
start
of
the
pandemic.
J
After
many
weeks
of
limited
use
and
attendance,
they've
gone
from
no
attendance
to
150
to
250,
now,
that's
still
very
lacking
for
that
facility,
and
a
number
of
weeks
of
no
ice
use,
we're
delighted
to
say
that
the
bruins
are
still
operating
out
of
riverside
arena,
and
we
certainly
hope
for
that
to
continue.
That
being
said,
being
said,
after
some
negotiating
we're
recommending
a
forbearance
of
approximately
55
of
what
has
accrued
by
a
lease
and
influencing
the
bruins,
the
remaining
17
296
dollars.
A
A
B
A
A
P
N
Tracy
have
any
comments.
No,
I
just
want
to
give
a
shout
out
to
craig.
He
connected
me
with
the
departments
these
last
two
weeks
and
I
really
enjoyed
visiting
the
different
departments
and
learning
a
little
bit
more
about
the
city.
A
Right,
I
I
think
that
was
excellent,
that
you
chose
to
to
pursue
that
and
really
kind
of
make
make
your
honorary
council
membership
here
even
more
valuable,
so
appreciate
you
visiting
with
those
department,
heads
and
them
taking
the
time
to
visit
with
you.
K
Thank
you
mayor.
The
only
item
that
I
have
on
a
mention
and
give
some
recognition
senator
dornick
had
is
a
co-author
of
senate
file,
752
and
rep
or
senator
abele.
Is
the
chief
author
of
that,
but
senator
dornick
agreed
to
co-author
that
in
part
our
request
locally,
I
was
able
to
testify
on
behalf
of
that
legislation
to
help
him
through
his
presentation.
It
was
laid
over
for
possible
inclusion
in
their
housing
bill,
but
we
appreciate
the
work
senator
dornick's
doing
on
our
behalf.
R
R
To
know
what's
going
on
kind
of
at
the
library
I
know
tonight,
we
have
a
concert
via
facebook
live
at
seven
o'clock.
Most
of
us
probably
will
still
be
here
so
we'll
miss
it,
but
just
so
you
know
that
at
the
aplmn.org
website
is
where
all
of
our
activities
are
advertised,
and
we
have
quite
a
few
things
that
we
have
been
able
to
collaborate
with
and
share
out
in
southeastern
minnesota,
and
this
invoke
concert
is
one
of
them.
R
This
is
a
quartet
that
is
explained
as
being
not
classical,
but
not
not
classical,
so
we're
hoping
it'll
be
a
good
show
tonight.
Also
the
social
book
social
justice
book
club
coming
up
march
18th
we're
doing
a
book
called
gender.
Your
guide,
if
you've
ever
wondered
about
the
when
people
sign
off
on
their
emails
and
it
they
have
their
pronouns
there,
that's
a
little
bit
about
what
this
is
about.
R
So
we
have
a
good
group,
that's
going
to
gather,
I
think,
on
march,
18th
about
10
people
signed
up
so
far
for
that
book
and
we'll
be
doing
a
different
book
every
month.
We
are
doing
this
in
conjunction
with
the
human
rights
commission,
and
we've
also
got
riverland
on
board
to
help
advertise
for
us
and
do
some
hosting
later
on
in
the
year
and
then
last
but
not
least,
for
those
of
you
bakers
out
there.
R
So,
even
though
we
aren't
as
able
to
do
as
many
things
in
person
right
now
we're
still
trying
to
get
as
many
virtual
things
going
on
at
the
library
until
we
can
get
everybody
together
outside,
hopefully
this
spring
and
fall.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you,
julie.
Any
other
comments
from
department
heads,
if
not
we'll
go
with
the
we'll
go
around
the
horn
with
council
start
with
joyce.
C
Oh
boy,
I
have
a
couple
of
things.
I
I
just
want
to
say:
congratulations
to
the
now
lieutenant
hartman
and
also
wish
lieutenant
mueller,
a
wonderful
retirement
and,
let's
see
julie,
I
just
I
don't
know
if
you're
stealing
yeah,
she
is
julie.
I
think
you
know
I'm
on
the
library
board
and
you
have
just
done
a
great
job
with
thinking
outside
the
box
with
everything.
So
I'm
hearing
a
lot
about
that
out
in
the
community.
I
think
that's
wonderful
and
is.
M
C
I
I've
had
a
couple:
people
contact
me
wondering
why
they
have
to
have
reservations
to
cross-country
ski
because
they
get
a
lot
of
out
of
town
guests
and
may
you
know
decide
they
want
to
do
that
and
then
they
get
there
and
can't
so.
J
J
Typically,
if
you,
if
you
reserve
with
him
in
advance,
you'll,
be
able
to
make
some
spacing
in
terms
of
you'll
know
the
day
of
the
day
before,
I
would
have
to
chat
with
luke
to
see
exactly
how
far
in
advance
they
want.
That
reservation.
A
Thank
you,
joyce.
Let's
go
mike
osman.
F
C
K
A
M
Thank
you
mayor
and
one
comment
that
I
want
to
make.
I
mean
too,
I
think
the
last
weekend
it'd
been
amazing
with
the
work
that
our
austin
alamo
accounting,
ceo.
I
have
been
doing
with
the
drive
through
tv
movie
and
had
opportunity
to
visit
with
them
last
week
and
talk
to
them
about.
M
You
know
the
work
that
city
council
are
doing
in
the
community
and
the
work
that
we
are
doing
so
and
they're
very,
very
happy
to
hear
from
me
and
the
question
they
asked
me
they're
like
what
can
we
do
to
come
and
see
one
day
how
the
city
council
works
so
and
then
I
told
them,
I
will
take
it
back
to
the
council
and
ask
the
mayor.
So
if
you
guys
want
to
come
as
a
group
and
just
sit
down
and
observe
the
meeting
one
of
the
meeting,
that
would
be
amazing.
M
A
H
Only
thing
I
have
is
had
the
opportunity
to
be
interviewed
by
somebody
from
the:
u
of
m
humphrey
school
today
on
a
project
they're,
doing
on
how
rural
communities
are
dealing
with
diversity
and
they
were
blown
away
just
by
just
the
amount
of
work
that
austin's
done.
You
know
now,
as
well
as
over
the
last
20
years.
A
Thank
you
that's
great
to
hear
mr
baskin
thanks
for
representing
us,
mr
fischer
speaking
of
pronouns.
I
don't
know
if
you
guys
have
noticed
paul
he
it's
council,
member
fisher,
it
he
writes
it
below
it.
A
A
For
your
thanks
for
your
kind
words
paul,
I
I
really
have
nothing.
I
I
have
nothing
further,
we'll
just
take
a
five
minute
break
after
we
adjourn
this
for
the
the
work
session
and
I
hope
you
guys
thoroughly
enjoy
your
grinders.
A
So
with
that
I'll,
take
a
motion
to
adjourn
until
march
15th,
so
moved
austin.
