PERSONAL APPEARANCES Marshal Platz of 406 31st Ave SE came forward regarding the ban on snakes in City limits. He said, he has done a lot of research on laws in different cities and states. He also spoke with Phil Goss, the President of the United States Association of Reptile Keepers, who said, the laws in North Dakota are some of the strictest in the country and there is no need for the City to have a ban in place when the state law already regulates different species. He hoped this information would prompt the Council to forego a committee. The Mayor informed him, the ad hoc committee that will discuss prohibited animals is being appointed tonight and Mr. Platz is one of the members. The committee will address, not only snakes, but several types of animals and will give the public the opportunity to voice their opinions. John Nygard, of 8 23rd St NW, came forward with questions about automation and the new trash cans provided by the City. He said, he has searched the utility bill and the City’s budget and cannot find the total revenue the City is receiving for the trash cans. He calculated, there were about 12,500 cans distributed at an average cost of $16 per can, so it would equate to $2.5 Million and he asked where that money goes. The Public Works Director explained, the budget line item for income includes cans as well as sanitations fees, tire disposal, MSW and inert, landfill fees, and all other income for the enterprise fund. The Mayor suggested, Mr. Nygard meet with Mr. Jonasson and Mr. Lakefield so they can identify the information he is requesting and if he is not satisfied with their response, to contact him. MAYOR’S REPORT The Mayor listed his recent meetings and events including, a meeting with the Committee on Addiction on August 10th and 24th. He attended the ribbon cutting of the Water Treatment Plant Hazard Mitigation with Senator Hoeven and Congressman Cramer. He had the privilege to fly in a B52 with the bomb squadron and said he was impressed by their professionalism. There was a meeting with Senator Hoeven and Mr. Long, the FEMA Administrator about flood mapping. He was interviewed by CNN for a piece on resilience, which should be available in October. He discussed HUD projects with Representative Streyle and met with members Addition Committee and the Bush Foundation to discuss grant possibilities to battle the opioid crisis. The Mayor then presented Maurice Foley with a Proclamation and a Mayor’s coin to thank him for his efforts with water projects and helping to secure funding for flood protection throughout the Souris basin.

The North Dakota League of Cities Annual Conference is being held September 28-30 and he encouraged Council members to register. He spoke about budget communication by saying, this year, staff focused on improved public education and engagement. He emphasized transparency and availability to community leaders, the media and media partners in the hope to educate, inform and remain responsive to public concerns. Mr. Barry gave an update on the Flood Protection project. He said, Phases 1-3 are out for bid and construction may take three years rather than two. The Environmental Impact Statement is headed to Washington D.C. for signing. The comment period closed with only minor comments and did not require any adjustments. The Hazard Mitigation at the Water Treatment plant is complete and a ribbon cutting ceremony was held. The project represents the first floodwalls for the City of Minot. He continued by giving construction updates, starting with the 83 Bypass. He said, the project is adding lanes on the west side and has laid asphalt at the intersection of 21st and the Bypass. A turning lane is being added to the north and traffic signals are being added which are expected to be completed this season. This will complete the first year of the two year project. The Broadway Bridges project is slightly behind schedule due to a supplier delay. The beams and bearings are expected to be set early this month. The structure work is substantially complete and the contractor plans to open the bridge to driving public in late October/early November. The Burdick Expressway reconstruction is progressing on schedule. Thirteenth Street opened in August and 11th Street is now closed. Underground work continues from 13th to 15th Streets. The Downtown Infrastructure project should be completed within 3-4 weeks. The contractor is almost finished pouring new roads and sidewalks. There is the possibility of a ribbon cutting for the entire three year project in late September or early October. The 18th Ave Storm Sewer project is currently 50% complete. It was designed to improve drainage and reduce flooding in the neighborhood and replace antiquated water main. He explained the current status of the Parking structures by saying, Cypress paid the October 2016 rent of $257,500 which was due for both structures. He said, the crane infills were completed on the Central Ramp and the crane removal and infills will begin this month on the Renaissance Ramp. The project closeout activities should be completed for the City’s portion of the project soon, perhaps October. The legal team is evaluating options with Cypress and is continuing conversations to move forward collaboratively. The City Manager then described the progress of the NDR programs underway. He said, the Park South Development Agreement was executed and the developer held a kickoff meeting. The Multi-Family RFP held a pre-proposal meeting and will open bids September 18th. EAPC held two Resilient Neighborhood Design Forums with residents to complete the design book that will contain options for new homes under the buy-in program. The Single-Family RFP was presented during the Committee of the Whole meeting. The NDR Program Manager met with the Downtown Business Association in August regarding the Downtown Gathering Space. They discussed potential properties and the geographical parameters. He said, a more detailed update and proposed plan will be presented at the October Committee of the Whole meeting. The buyouts and acquisitions are continuing with six acquisitions and ten relocations in August. The Center for Technical Education is moving forward to develop a list of possible programs. Page | 8 September 5, 2017 Regular City Council Meeting He described some compliance activities including information on the HUD Audit which took place in June. He said, the audit focused on ensuring compliance with all HUD regulations and a technical assistance visit is scheduled in October to concentrate on the Parking Ramps and 55th Crossing projects. Mr. Barry announced, the Fire Department has improved the ISO rating for the City of Minot. The change in rating means the level of fire protection service has improved and it could result in lower property insurance rates. He added, of over 46,000 fire departments nation-wide, Minot is one of only 1,300 communities with a class 2 ISO rating. He spoke about the summer reading program at the Minot Public Library which had 1,138 participants. He then described a visit from African Delegates who came to North Dakota to learn about methods of procurement of major infrastructure projects. He thanked the Public Works Director, City Engineer and Finance Director for helping during the Representative’s visit to City Hall. Upon questioning by Alderman Straight regarding the Resilient Neighborhood Design program, Mr. Barry stated, it was created through the NDR program but if the need exists, it may continue. Alderman Straight also asked about the payment from Cypress for the rent of the Parking Ramps. The City Manager explained, the City will be more aggressive about pursuing payment but there is a four-month period built into the contract to cure any late payments. CITY ATTORNEY’S REPORT The City Attorney submitted a written report and stated, there was an addition to the report requesting the appointment of the Ward County State’s Attorney’s Office to prosecute two cases in Municipal Court due to conflicts. Alderman Wolsky asked about the NAWS ruling and the expectation of an appeal. Dan Jonasson replied by saying, October 7th is the deadline to file for an appeal and he expects they will. Afterwards, the City will wait for the Judge’s action. APPOINTMENT OF WARD COUNTY STATE’S ATTORNEY TO PROSECUTE MUNICIPAL COURT CASES – APPROVED Alderman Olson moved the City Council approve the appointment of the Ward County State’s Attorney, or her designee, to prosecute the municipal court cases MI-2017-TR-3676 and MI-2017-CR-1362, on behalf of the City of Minot and authorize the Mayor to sign the appointment form in each case. Motion seconded by Alderman Straight and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Barney, Olson, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none. SKYSKOPES AMENDED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT – APPROVED Alderman Straight moved the City Council approve the SkySkopes amended development agreement to include an amended equipment list and include the RX55 and an updated security agreement. Motion seconded by Alderman Sipma. Stefanie Hoffart came forward to thank the Council for the opportunity to amend the contract and introduced Matt Dunleavy for further information. Matt Dunleavy, CEO of SkySkopes, mentioned, he wanted to bring some of the pilots from the company but they are currently deployed to Houston helping with disaster relief of hurricane Harvey. He then announced, they have successfully raised the funding required by the Magic Fund contract. He explained the reasoning for the equipment amendment by saying, they are changing the sensors that were originally applied for because the new ones will be more cost effective and produce better data. He added, they are furthering their commitment to Minot by bringing additional aircraft to the Magic City. They believe the FX20, which has been added to the equipment list, will bring better value to the oil and gas industry Minot is so well known for. He concluded by saying the amended equipment list will be good for Minot, for SkySkopes and will create jobs to diversify the economy. Page | 9 September 5, 2017 Regular City Council Meeting Alderman Wolsky asked about the status of their Minot office and local jobs, to which Mr. Dunleavy replied by saying, the CFO has moved to Minot and the company has identified positions for Minot residents including pilots, business developers and data handlers. Upon questioning by Alderman Straight, Mr. Dunleavy described the sensors by saying they last as long as any other sensors, which is 18 months, but the ones they are requesting have a less fine point cloud, better for use in surveying and vegetation management. He also said, the original sensors they listed were recalled by the company. Alderman Wolsky asked Ms. Hoffart about the time frame included in the agreement regarding the delivery of jobs. She read the agreement which states, July 1, 2018; three full time employees, July 1, 2019; seven full time employees, July 1, 2020; fifteen full time employees. She also said additional investments are required, including $300,000 by July 1, 2018, $300,000 by July 1, 2019, and $500,000 by July 1, 2020.

Page | 13 September 5, 2017 Regular City Council Meeting Alderman Wolsky restated the concerns about the local source funding, mentioned during the Committee of the Whole meeting. He asked the City Attorney about her review of the agreement. The City Attorney stated, the sub agreement he referenced, states “The City shall, commit its one-half cent sales tax to local cost share for the entire basin wide project, and such funds shall be made available to reimburse the Joint Board for the local cost share for construction and implementation of the entire basin wide Project, including the percentage of cost share necessary to match funds provided by the State Water Commission, and all other local costs not provided by state or federal funding for construction and implementation of the Project, pursuant, however to the financial limitations specified in the following sentence of this subsection a. The proceeds of this one-half cent sales tax shall constitute the City’s sole and only financial obligation under the terms and provisions of this sub-agreement.” Which was signed in January 2014, so from that day forward the first penny of the one half cent sales tax goes toward the basin wide project. Mr. Lakefield said, after researching the item, identified funding that was earmarked for this type of project and does not appear to have been expended. Some of the money dates back to 2006 and rules on how this funding is accounted for have changed since then so it will require additional research. It appears there is approximately $2 Million allocated in 2006 and an additional $2.5 Million budgeted out of second penny sales tax in 2013 that was not expended. It appears this funding is available if the funds identified for the project are not utilized. Alderman Wolsky stated, he appreciates the clarification and brought the issue to the Council’s attention to ensure that we aren’t overstepping the bounds of allocating the one half cent. Whereupon a vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Olson seconded by Alderman Straight and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Barney, Olson, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none. BID APPROVAL P3135.2C SWIF ACTION C LEVEE REPAIR, BANK STABILIZATION – APPROVED Alderman Wolsky moved the City Council award the bid to Park Construction in the amount of $966,077.80 for the SWIF Action C Levee Repair and bank stabilization. Motion seconded by Alderman Straight. Alderman Sipma asked the Public Works Director if he is concerned the bids from the other companies were much higher than the low bidder. Mr. Jonasson responded by saying, Park is a fairly large company and has done work on flood protection in other cities. There was a wide range of bids which represents the bidding environment. Upon further questioning he said, the project was brought forward in a short time frame so it can begin as soon as possible. The trees on the levees will be removed and taken to the landfill for mulch. Whereupon a vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Wolsky, seconded by Alderman Straight and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Barney, Olson, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none.
