MEETING ITEMS 1) Call to Order 2) Pledge of Allegiance 3) Approval of Minutes – September 03, 2024 Commissioner Uhlenkamp made a motion to approve the meeting minutes from the September 03, 2024 regular meeting. Commissioner Knowski seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously. AWARDS AND PROCLAMATIONS PUBLIC HEARINGS – 5:30 PM 1) 2025 Final Budget, Salary Plan, Position Authorization President Moe opened the public hearing. David Olson addressed the Commission concerning the Lake Region Public Library’s budget. The Library reduced the mills they were asking for. He suggested the City seek funding reductions in other places or making cuts across the board. Mr. Olson said he has concerns that the mill reduction to the Library beyond what was originally requested is because the City desires not to see a full time children’s librarian employed. President Moe asserted that was certainly not the case. Mr. Olson spoke fondly of the kindness he has been treated by children’s librarians over his lifelong experience. He read a quote from Laura Bush on the positive impacts of libraries on people’s lives. He said he was hoping that the City reconsider their mill reduction to the Library. President Moe said the Commission was not unsupportive of having a full-time children’s librarian but that their were concerns about funding. He added that because valuations increased, so did the value of a mill and that the actual dollars the library are set to receive is not far off from this year’s amount. President Moe said the City made it a priority to reduce mills this year because of increases due to the school district bond referendum passing and ambulance service mill levy establishment. He said the Airport and Jobs Development Authority were both impacted as well. President Moe said every year each department gets looked at in detail and that this is where the funding has broken out to. He said that the Library Director is going a good job and applauded her enthusiasm for the Library. The City Administrator communicated that between the City of Devils Lake and Ramsey County that the library was set to receive $1,000 more than in 2024. President Moe closed the public hearing and asked the City Administrator to give an overview of the 2025 final budget. He said the budget was slightly over a total of $2.076 million for property tax levy, for a total levy of 90.11 mills. He said the budget includes a 4% increase to health insurance rates, a 3% cost of living adjustment, and a slight restructure to the Police Department and shifting a position from the airport to the fire department due to the assumption of the ARFF mission. Commissioner Knowski made a motion to approve the 2025 Final Budget, Salary Plan, and Position Authorization. Commissioner Hach seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously on a roll call vote. BID OPENINGS VISITORS OR DELEGATIONS COMMISSION PORTFOLIOS Commissioner Knowski – The City Engineer said everything was going well in the Utilities Department. Commissioner Hach - The City Engineer said everything was going well in the Sanitation Department and that fall cleanup will begin next week in Zone 1. The City Engineer said curb and gutter was being installed for the stromquist paving project right now. He said that pavement would be put in soon on the West Side project weather contingent. He said the south-side watermain project is pretty much complete. The City Assessor said everything was going well in the Assessing Department. Commissioner Uhlenkamp – The City Engineer reminded everyone that political signs need to be out of City right-of-way. He said this would mean the signs need to be on the property owner’s side of the sidewalk or if there is no sidewalk, five feet from the curb. Commissioner Uhlenkamp asked how the columbarium project was coming along at the Cemetery. The City Engineer said the project is complete. The Fire Chief said everything went well with National Night Out and the Fire Department’s Open House. President Moe – The Police Chief said National Night Out and their Tip-a-Cop event went well. The City Administrator gave notice to the Commission that the public hearing for special assessment lists will be on the October 7th Commission agenda. The City Attorney said everything was going well. President Moe asked about the hazard and proceedings for the distressed church on 2nd Street. The Fire Chief said a letter giving a 30-day notice was provided two weeks ago. He said they have until 30 days from the letter to provide the City with a plan to but the property into compliance. OLD BUSINESS CONSENT AGENDA NEW BUSINESS 1) Resolution Establishing Rates and Fees Effective January 01, 2025 The City Administrator gave an overview of the proposed rates and fees to take effect January 01, 2025. He said that City staff and the Commission will need to have a discussion on how to proceed with the rate and fee structure in the Sanitation Department. He said the absence of a recycling market has resulted in an over $100,000 drag on the Sanitation Department’s budget due to the lack of an off-setting revenue source. The City Administrator said it will be likely that an additional adjustment to the Sanitation Department’s rates and fees will be recommended between now and the end of the year to incorporate the added net cost of the recycling program. He said that he would like to go over a proposal with the City Engineer/Public Work’s Director Commissioner Hach made a motion to approve the Resolution Establishing Rates and Fees Effective January 01, 2025. Commissioner Knowski seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously on a roll call vote. 2) Pay Estimate #2 – Mayo Construction – West Side Project Commissioner Uhlenkamp made a motion to approve Pay Estimate #2 to Mayo Construction. Commissioner Knowski seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously on a roll call vote. 3) Declaration of Emergency and Budget Amendment 24-05 – Sanitation Roof Repair The City Administrator said it was budgeted to repair the roof for the Sanitation Department’s building in 2025. He said in seeking preliminary quotes from two vendors, there was a favorable quote and that staff would like to move forward repairing the roof with the selected vendor this fall rather than wait until spring. Commissioner Knowski made a motion to declare an emergency and approve Budget Amendment 24-05. Commissioner Uhlenkamp seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously on a roll call vote. 4) Resolution Authorizing Redemption of Sales Tax Revenue Bond, Series 2015B ($1,280,000 plus Accrued Interest) The City Administrator updated the Commission on the status of the City’s fiscal year audits. He said that the City was expecting to begin their 2022 and 2023 audits at the end of August or beginning of September. He said that staffing changes at the State Auditor’s Office have pushed that timeline back. The City Administrator said that due to the City’s delay in getting financial audits completed, Moody’s will be placing the City’s bond rating up for review with the potential for possible future withdrawal without audited financial statements reported to them in 60-90 days. The City Administrator said the City is seeking proposals from private auditing firms to get the City back on track and on a normal cadence for yearly fiscal year audits and that staff would bring the proposals to the City Commission for their consideration at a special meeting in the near future. He said that after consulting with Northland Securities, the City’s financial advisor, it would be beneficial and strategic to payoff Sales Tax Revenue Bond, Series 2015B. He said this is the only debt on the books that carries a Moody’s rating. The City Administrator said that it would be strategic to eliminate issued debt that carries a bond rating to hedge against the possibility of the City’s rating getting withdrawn due to lack of sufficient information, which could risk a withdrawal of the rating or reduction in the bond rating for that series. The City Administrator said staff would present a proposed budget amendment to the Commission at the next meeting. Commissioner Knowski made a motion to approve the Resolution Authorizing Redemption of Sales Tax Revenue Bond, Series 2015B. Commissioner Hach seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously on a roll call vote. CITIZEN COMMENT INFORMATIONAL ITEMS 1) August 2024 Financial Report The City Administrator said the August sales tax deposit was the highest received from the City since the Tax Commissioner’s Office began distributing funds monthly. LIST OF BILLS Commissioner Hach made a motion to approve the List of Bills. Commissioner Uhlenkamp seconded the motion, and the motion was carried unanimously on a roll call vote. __________________________________ __________________________________ SPENCER HALVORSON JIM MOE CITY ADMINISTRATOR/AUDITOR PRESIDENT OF CITY COMMISSION  MEETING MINUTES OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE, ND SEPTEMBER 23, 2024 The special meeting of the Devils Lake City Commission was held on September 23, 2024 at 12:00pm with the following members present: Commissioners Hach, Pierce, and Uhlenkamp.

Spencer Halvorson City Auditor/Administrator For legals: 09-24-2024 October 1, 2024 Spencer Halvorson City Administrator/Auditor City of Devils Lake 423 6th St NE Devils Lake, ND 58301 VIA EMAIL (SPENCERH@DVLND.COM) ONLY Re: Use of Special Assessments to Recover Unpaid Utility Bills Dear Mr. Halvorson: I write in response to your request for a legal opinion on the ability to recover an unpaid utility bill by certifying the debt against the property by a special assessment pursuant to Section 3.01.020 of the Devils Lake Municipal Code. In my opinion, the use of special assessment to recover unpaid utility bills is appropriate under certain circumstances but, for the reasons set forth herein, those circumstances do not exist given the particular facts presented. Accordingly, I advise the City of Devils Lake to abstain from the use of a special assessment to recover the unpaid utility bill in this particular instance. My understanding of this issue is derived from your August 22, 2024 email which contains numerous email exchanges between yourself and Tim Gleason. I understand that Tim Gleason, or his company, purchased a certain property in December 2023 which property is located within the City of Devils Lake. I understand that the previous owner of that property has an unpaid utility bill from the City of Devils Lake in the approximate amount of $1,000 and that the basis for the unpaid utility bill is the City’s provision of a roll off dumpster to the previous owner. In my opinion, the current property owner is not liable for the unpaid utility debt because the current owner did not contract with the City of Devils Lake to receive the service of the City’s provision of a roll off dumpster. In addition, the City’s provision of a roll off dumpster to the previous owner did not directly benefit the property in the same manner as providing water, sewer, and on-site garbage collection services. I find no nexus between the current property owner and the provision of a roll off dumpster to the previous owner, which past service gave rise to the unpaid utility bill. In my opinion, the use of a special assessment to recover an unpaid utility bill would be contrary to the legislative intent of Section 3.01.020 of the Devils Lake Municipal Code due to the lack of a nexus between the current property owner, the real property itself, and the services provided by the City which services are the basis for the unpaid utility bill. Jason P. Sayler 509 5th St. NE, Suite 1, P.O. Box 838, Devils Lake, ND 58301 P: 701.662.4077 F: 701.662.7537 jasonsayler@traynorlaw.com www.traynorlaw.com Dedicated. Trusted. Reliable. The City’s ability to use a special assessment to recover an unpaid utility bill is provided in Section 3.01.020 of the Devils Lake Municipal Code. Section 3.01.020 is only one section within a larger group of ordinances comprising Chapter 3.01 of the Municipal Code, which Chapter pertains to utility bills issued by the City for services provided by it. Section 3.01.020 cannot be read in isolation and, instead, must be harmonized with other ordinances pertaining to utility bills. See, e.g. Rojas v. Workforce Safety and Ins., et at., 2006 ND 221, 723 N.W.2d 403. In Rojas, the court summarized the rules of statutory interpretation by stating: [t]he primary objective in interpreting a statute is to determine the Legislature’s intent. To determine the Legislature’s intent we compare every section of the statute as a part of the whole, and give meaning, if possible, to every word, phrase, and sentence. “[W]e interpret statutes in context and in relation to others on the same subject to give meaning to each without rendering one or the other useless.” Whenever possible, we harmonize statutes to avoid conflict between them. Only when conflicting statutes cannot be harmonized and are irreconcilable will the special provision prevail and be construed as an exception to the general provision. Rojas, 2006 ND 221 at ¶ 13 (internal citations omitted); see also State of North Dakota, et al. v. North Dakota Ins. Reserve Fund, 2012 ND 216, ¶ 12, 822 N.W.2d 38 (stating: “[w]hen statutes relate to the same subject matter, we make every effort to harmonize and give meaningful effect to each statute. Only when the conflict between the two provisions is irreconcilable should resort be made to the ‘particular controls general’ rule of statutory construction [set forth in N.D.C.C. § 1-02-07].” (internal citations omitted).1 The ability to use special assessments to recover unpaid utility bills, as provided for in Section 3.01.020, must be read in conjunction with other ordinances within Chapter 3.01 of the Municipal Code in order to give meaning to each ordinance. A review of Chapter 3.01 demonstrates a recurring theme in which the utility bill is sent to, or assessed against, the individual customer. Section 3.01.010 states that a utility bill shall be sent to each customer. See Code § 3.01.010(A). Section 3.01.050 repeatedly states that the owner of the real property shall be responsible for the payment of charges while allowing such owner to request the city auditor bill his tenant as the responsible billing party. See Code §§ 3.01.050(A) and 3.01.050(C). Section 3.01.070 provides a billing method in which notice is sent to the renter and owner of the account. See Code § 3.01.070(B). Section 3.01.020, providing for the use of special assessments to recover unpaid utility bills, is one of the few ordinances within Chapter 3.01 that does not identify an individual as the proper billing party; yet the remainder of Chapter 3.01 of the Municipal Code demonstrates that utility bills are charged against either the customer or the owner of the real property benefited by the utility service. 1 Although the cited authority addresses the interpretation of State statutory law, the principles of statutory interpretation apply equally to municipal ordinances. See GO Comm v. City of Minot, 2005 ND 136, 701 N.W.2d 865 (municipal ordinances are interpreted in the same manner as are statutes). Jason P. Sayler jasonsayler@traynorlaw.com www.traynorlaw.com Page | 2 Chapter 3.01 establishes a nexus between the utility services giving rise to the bill, the real property where such services are received, and either the owner or occupant of the real property receiving such services. North Dakota law regarding the interpretation of statute requires Section 3.01.020 of the Municipal Code be read in conjunction with the entirety of Chapter 3.01 of the Municipal Code in order to give meaning to the language contained within Section 3.01.020. Section 3.01.020 is properly reconciled with Chapter 3.01 by requiring the aforementioned nexus between the utility services, the real property, and the owner or occupant of the real property. In this particular instance, it is my opinion that it would be inappropriate to recover the utility bill by means of special assessment against the real property because there is no nexus between the services provided, the real property, and the current owner or occupant. The previous real property owner is the proper billing party in this instance and the City has a remedy against the previous owner to collect the unpaid utility bill. See Code § 3.01.010(C) (providing: “[i]f the utility bill, together with a penalty is not paid, the City may maintain an action for the collection of such charges.”). State law does allow for an unpaid utility bill to be assessed against the premises under N.D.C.C. § 40-05-01.1. However, the ability to use the special assessment procedure under N.D.C.C. § 40- 05-01.1 is only available when a municipality performs work deemed necessary for the general welfare, public health, fire protection, or public safety. Section 40-05-01.1, N.D.C.C., applies when either the City steps in to perform necessary work because an owner or occupant refuses to do so himself or when a municipality establishes a system of water, sewer, and garbage collection systems to provide for the general welfare of its citizens. In my opinion, the City’s provision of a roll off dumpster upon the request of the previous owner does not fall within the provisions of N.D.C.C. § 40-05-01.1 for reason that the roll off dumpster was provided to the previous owner at his request and not because of the previous owner’s failure to comply with work deemed necessary for the general welfare and because the provision of the roll off dumpster to the previous owner does not fall within the municipality’s regular system of providing water, sewer, and garbage collection services. You also provided me with portions of the minutes from Devils Lake City Commission meetings that occurred on October 21, 2002, and October 6, 2003. The portions of those City Commission meeting minutes indicate a similar issue occurred at that time. Namely, the City Commission meeting minutes indicate the City Commission considered whether an unpaid utility bill should be certified as a special assessment requiring payment by the current real property owner despite the fact that the unpaid utility bill in question was incurred by the previous owner of the real property. The minutes demonstrate the City Commission did not certify the unpaid utility bill as a special assessment and instead the City apparently reached a settlement agreement with the current real property owner, which agreement provided for the real property owner’s repayment of the past due utility bill in monthly installments in exchange for the City’s agreement to allow the real property owner to use the City landfill to dispose of waste resulting from the demolition of a certain portion of the real property. I do not view the City Commission’s actions in October of 2022 and October of 2003 as approving the use of a special assessment to recover unpaid utility bills because, according to the minutes, the utility bill was never reduced to a special assessment. Jason P. Sayler jasonsayler@traynorlaw.com www.traynorlaw.com Page | 3 In the present matter, there is no nexus between the current real property owner, the real property itself, and the past services provided by the City which services are the basis for the unpaid utility bill. The use of special assessment to recover the unpaid utility bill is inappropriate in this instance because of the absence of any connection between the past services and the current ownership of the land. Accordingly, I advise the City of Devils Lake to abstain from the use of a special assessment to recover the unpaid utility bill in this particular instance. This letter is based upon my review of North Dakota law and relevant portions of the Devils Lake Municipal Code. I believe this letter is responsive to your inquiry. If you have any questions, or if you wish to discuss this matter further, please contact me. Thank you. Respectfully yours, Jason P. Sayler JPS/pdd Jason P.
