From: Caleb Peterson, Public Works Director

Date: October 3, 2023
ITEM DESCRIPTION: —
Disposal of Surplus Equipment Unit 233
Proposetl Action
Staff recommends the City Council move to authorize the sale of Public Works Unit 233, a 1997 Chevy
K1500 half ton pick—uptruck.
Background/Overview
Because of past vehicle purchases, it has been determined that this vehicle is no longer needed and is in
such condition that it is not economically feasible to upgrade it to a usable standard.
Unit 233 originated in the engineering department when purchased. Over the past 26 years it has served
all departments within Public Works and has seen it all, from inspection work on street and utility
projects, hydrant ?ushing, and most recently watering Cloquet Avenue ?owers. Based on the age and
future maintenance, staff recommends sale through the online auction service Minn Bid.
Policy Objectives
To dispose of surplus equipment in accordance with State Statue.
Financial/Budget/Grant Considerations
It has been determined that it is no longer ?nancially feasible to maintain these items in inventory or they
are no longer needed by the city. This surplus equipment does have some salvage value and the money
from the sale would be returned to the appropriate department fund accounts.

The Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College was established in Cloquet, MN in 1987. The mission of
the college is to provide higher education opportunities for its communities in a welcoming, culturally
diverse environment.
The Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College Foundation was created in 1995 by the College Board of
Directors to raise funds from corporations, individuals and other private resources to support the
diverse needs of the college. Through its activities, the Foundation works to increase access to
educational opportunities, improve the quality of life of students, and create an environment that will
assist in building a stronger and richer community for the future.
The Foundation's FoodforThought is a food and wine tasting fundraising event that benefits student
scholarships and student needs. The after~work affair celebrates several area food vendors from our
local community region, while providing our community withan opportunity to help deserving students
further their education. Our inaugural Food for Thought tasting event was held in January 2014.
The eleventh annual FaodforThought will be held January 18, 2024. Please find the attached application
for the Temporary On-Sale Liquor License with the accompanying required certificates for our
January 18, 2024 event. Also enclosed is the State of Minnesota Application and required documents.
One of our goals is to keep expenses at a minimum. That said, we request your consideration to waive
the $50.00 application fee. As in the past, we also request the use of students enrolled in our
Community Peace Officer program (formerly known as our Law Enforcement program) to provide the
necessary police presence required. This is an excellent way for our students to be involved in this
community-wide event.
Please don't hesitate to contact me, my Executive Assistant Stephanie Untiedt steghanie.untiedt@fd|tcc.edu
or Foundation Board President, Kate Mason kate@northwoodscu.org with any questions you may have.

Tim Peterson
City Administrator
Cloquet, Minnesota
Mr. Peterson,
Included is a resolution passed by the Cloquet Area Fire District Board of Directors on 9-20-2023 relating to
public safety aid that I ask you present to the Cloquet City Council. In 2023, the City of Cloquet will be
receiving $556,397 in one-time public safety aid from the State of Minnesota to be utilized for police, ?re,
rescue and associated expenses relating to public safety. The Cloquet Area Fire District is of?cially requesting
a portion of that aid to be expended for speci?c projects relating to the health and safety of our staff, and to
enhance emergency response within the City of Cloquet and our service area.
There are two systems we need to fund that will greatly impact the health, safety and capability of our
emergency response organization. These systems are commonplace in modern ?re stations a11dtheir purchase
and installation has been delayed due to many years of funding challenges. A vehicle exhaust system and
station alerting system will signi?cantly improve our ability to safely and ef?ciently answer over 3,300 calls for
service each year, with many of those occurring in the City of Cloquet. The total cost of these systems is
estimated at $165,000. We ask that you strongly consider contributing $165,000 of the public safety aid
Cloquet will receive from the State of Minnesota to the Cloquet Area Fire District so that we can purchase and
install these important systems in our primary ?re station at 508 Cloquet Avenue at the earliest opportunity.
As pait of my research into the legality of this use of public safety aid, I spoke with Kristie Strum of the MN
Department of Revenue who con?rmed that this was not a prohibited use of funds and therefore a legitimate
expense for the City of Cloquet in regards to the one-time public safety aid.
Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss further, I appreciate your consideration of my request.
