BURDICK EXPRESSWAY RECONSTRUCTION SELECTION OF PREFERRED ALTERNATIVES (4179)
– APPROVED
Alderman Schuler moved the City Council choose the following options for the Burdick Expressway Reconstruction:
Alternate B: Build Project and Realign the Road at the Oxbow; Option 1: Replace signal at Burdick/9th St; Option 2b:
Remove Traffic Signal and Install a Pedestrian Signal. Motion seconded by Alderman Shomento
Josh Wolsky of 1340 S. Main St, came forward to discuss some concerns over the project. He does not believe there
was proper consideration from the public due to a lack of public notice. He also acknowledged that there was a public
forum but it took place at the same time as a City Council meeting therefore, no members could attend. He stated, he
submitted comments to the Council from the organization, Friends of the Souris, but did not get any response. He
brought up the issues that were discussed at the Public Works and Safety Committee meeting, including potential
stormwater flow, uncertain excavation, and the necessity to purchase a lot owned by MSU. He concluded by saying,
filling in this area of river is the opposite of the vision for greenspace and recreation.
Kelly Burgardt, of 313 9th St SE, also spoke against the project. He stated, it will shift the turning lane of Burdick
closer to his home. He said, when the surveying was done near his house, he was told it would not affect his property.
The City Engineer stated the project is a cooperation between the City and the NDDOT. He explained, the City has a
10% cost share and their opinions will be considered heavily but the Department of Transportation will make the final
call. He responded to each of the concerns by stating, the notification for the project was published in the official
paper as was required. He said, staff has already met with MSU regarding the purchase of the lot in question and if
necessary can be purchased at the appraised price. He also explained by saying, these improvements will correct
issues relating to ADA compliance, narrow lanes and insufficient geometrics for the impending traffic increase. Upon
concerns about stormwater drainage, he explained, staff knows how much water comes in and can calculate what is
necessary to pump out. They are comfortable with the amount of drainage that will be provided and it will be
monitored like any other area. He further explained, it will be a volume for volume replacement. The DOT has done
preliminary geotechnical analysis and took soil borings to ensure the project is technically feasible. Like any other
project, if issues arise later in the process, alternatives will be discussed.
Jarrod Olson, came forward on behalf of the Park District. He expressed concern over the traffic signal at the
intersection of 13th Street. The City Engineer stated, based on numerous traffic calculations, studies do not warrant a
signal at that location but the DOT is open to the concept of a pedestrian flasher.
Others spoke in opposition to the project for reasons regarding drainage and the desire to keep the river as is.
Alderman Hedberg suggested the Council delay the decision until the following month when more research can be
done. The City Engineer explained, they have done as much as they can up to this point. The engineers will need
some direction on which alternatives to pursue further.
Alderman Lehner gave his support for the options chosen and stated, there was some confusion at the Public Works
meeting but as the project was explained during the discussion, he no longer has any concerns.
Whereupon a vote was taken on the motion by Alderman Schuler, seconded by Alderman Shomento and carried by
the following roll call vote: ayes: Berg, Frantsvog, Hedberg, Jantzer, Kossan, Lehner, Olson, Pankow, Podrygula,
Schuler, Shomento; nays: Sipma, Straight
MAYORAL COMMITTEE APPOINTMENT- NUISANCE COMPLAINTS- WEEDS AND DEBRIS –
APPROVED
Alderman Schuler moved the City Council request the Mayor appoint a committee to discuss a systematic organized
mechanism to deal with the issue of weeds and debris on undeveloped property. Motion seconded by Alderman
Podrygula.
Page | 14
September 6, 2016
It was agreed by all that there is an issue with weeds, debris and nuisances around town but it was questioned if a
committee is the best way to find a solution or if City staff should investigate the problem.
Alderman Podrygula further explained the extent of the issue by stating, it is occurring in every part of town. There
are locations with noxious weeds, piles of debris, and construction materials abandoned by developers. Enforcement
mechanisms are beyond the capability of Public Works and there are authority and jurisdictional issues at play.
The Public Works Director stated, staff has attempted to contact the developers and have made little headway. They
were told a contractor was hired to maintain an area around Ballantyne Lake but so far nothing has been done. When
asked what would be needed to accomplish a solution, Mr. Jonasson said, there is an ordinance but it does not address
properties of this magnitude. The City does not have the equipment to mow or spray for weeds nor the manpower to
complete it.
Upon the suggestion to contract the work and assess the costs, the City Attorney stated, that can be done but the City
would be responsible for payment up front and would not be guaranteed the owner will pay the bill.
Several residents of the northwest area of town described the experiences they had with the weeds throughout the
summer. Foxtails have affected homes, pets and the health of residents.
Lauren Tiffany of 900 25 ½ Ave NW, stated, she contacted one of the developers who own one of the properties. She
said they told her the land was given to the City in an easement. The City Engineer responded by saying, once the
development is complete, the lake will be deeded to the City, but the developer has been told it needs to be cleaned up.
The Mayor offered his opinion that after hearing discussion, recommends a committee be appointed.
Whereupon a vote was taken on the motion by Alderman Schuler, seconded by Alderman Podrygula and carried by
the following roll call vote: ayes: Berg, Frantsvog, Hedberg, Jantzer, Kossan, Lehner, Olson, Pankow, Podrygula,
Schuler, Shomento, Sipma, Straight; nays: none.

SPECIAL ASSESSMENT COMMISSION REPORT- PAVING DISTRICT 485 – APPROVED
Alderman Olson moved the City Council approve the assessment of Paving District 485.
Motion seconded by Alderman Kossan and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Berg, Frantsvog, Hedberg,
Jantzer, Kossan, Lehner, Olson, Pankow, Podrygula, Schuler, Shomento, Sipma, Straight; nays: none.
SPECIAL ASSESSMENT COMMISSION REPORT- PAVING DISTRICT 493 – SENT TO SPECIAL
ASSESSMENT COMMISSION
Alderman Olson moved the City Council approve the assessment of Paving District 493. Motion seconded by
Alderman Lehner.
Chris Strange, the Manager of the Minot Country Club came forward to appeal the assessment of the property. He
said, the Country Club received a disproportionate amount of the assessment because it was based on square footage,
opposed to frontage. He also stated, the golf course is a seasonal business and the street value assessed to them is not
the primary route for traffic. He suggested the assessment include some other properties that were not part the district
but will also benefit from the roads.
Mark Hildahl, President of Golf Minot, Inc. stated, it is an unfair assessment for one street when other residential
properties were only assessed $3,000-$5,000.
Peter Hankla, the attorney for the Minot County Club, stated, the Country Club was added to the paving district
because of the benefit from the road system specifically for truck traffic. He said however, because there is no
signage and it is not the most direct route, deliveries do not use that road. He suggested the Council consider
modifying the assessment formula.
Denise Martin of 1620 35th Ave SE, said she also attended the Special Assessment Commission meeting and urged the
Council to reconsider the assessment for her home. She cannot access her house from that street and does not get any
benefit from its construction.
The interim City Manager explained, according to the ND Century Code, Council cannot change the total value of the
assessment nor can they remap the properties included. They would only be able to allocate the values differently
among the other properties. Upon questioning as to whether or not the item can be tabled until a later date, Ms.
Hemphill explained, the assessments need to be certified by November 1 st or else the City will have to carry the cost.
Alderman Frantsvog commented, the Country Club was added to the paving district at the request of the other
property owners. He added, the assessment can be reviewed and approved in time for the deadline.
Ms. Hemphill stated, notification letters must be sent to all of the properties and staff will schedule another meeting.
Alderman Sipma asked why the new townhomes were not included to which the City Engineer explained, the paving
district was first approved in 2014 and at that time, the area had not been annexed into the City.
Alderman Shomento moved the City Council send the report back to the Special Assessment Commission for further
review. Motion seconded by Alderman Frantsvog and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Berg, Frantsvog,
Hedberg, Jantzer, Kossan, Lehner, Olson, Pankow, Podrygula, Shomento, Sipma, Straight; nays: Schuler.
