PERSONAL APPEARANCES
Mindy Weisse, of 18 25th Street NW, approached the Council for a status update on the pedestrian crossing on 3rd Street SE.
She said, her daughter was hit by a car at the crossing and wants to know what is being done to prevent it from happening
again.
Lance Meyer, City Engineer, gave a presentation on the 3rd Street SE Pedestrian Crossing. He listed the current concerns
with the intersection, including; it is a four lane minor arterial, 30 mph speed limit, old traffic signal at 3rd St/Burdick
Expressway, aging pedestrian signal at 3rd Ave with limited capability/in-effectiveness of constant flashers, there are
Page | 5
November 5, 2018 Regular City Council Meeting
approximately 8,400 Average Daily Traffic (ADT), very wide intersection: 57 feet wide edge to edge, parking on north and
south sides of the pedestrian crosswalk and non-compliance with no parking, and it has a medium quality piano bar
crosswalk. He then described some potential solutions such as a Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) which averages
a 23-48% reduction in accidents, Road Diet, which averages a 20-50% reduction in accidents, and 3 Second Pedestrian Lead
Phasing, which averages a 59% reduction in accidents and is scheduled to be added at the new Burdick/3rd Street signal after
2020.
The City Engineer continued by describing the current intersection layout and how each of the solutions could be
implemented. He mentioned the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) that the City could apply for. He said, a
successful application could result in a 90% Federal Grant 10% local cost share for funding for a Rectangular Rapid Flashing
Beacon. Staff could prepare the environmental document and NDDOT would bid the project. It could be done in 2019 and
the estimated cost is $27,000 meaning the City/County share would be $2,700. He described other enhancements that can be
done to improve striping and rearrange parking spaces to improve sight lines. He also discussed the Urban Grant Program
project that is scheduled to take place in 2022. It will rehabilitate 3rd Street NE and SE in the same manner as the downtown
improvement project by replacing concrete panels, ornamental street lighting, curb & gutter and sidewalks. A road diet could
also reduce the street from four lanes to three lanes while remaining well within the needed capacity. Bump outs similar to
those in downtown would also be added which further reduces the number of pedestrian accidents by narrowing the travel
distance between sidewalks.
The Council thanked Mr. Meyer for his presentation and authorized staff to proceed with the grant process to make the
improvements.
Mayor Sipma also related the incident to the need for local municipalities to have the ability to adjust fines. He said, the fine
for disregarding a pedestrian is just $50 and two points on a license. Legislators are considering assessing the issue.
Paul Engeldinger, of 9420 Project Road S, also came forward regarding the pedestrian crosswalk. He said, the presentation
from the City Engineer covered most of his concerns but he commented that the crossing needs something to grab drivers’
attention. He suggested adding a crossing sign in the middle of the road where drivers would see it. He also said, the
overheard lights only flash during business hours but that should be extended. The Mayor thanked him for his comments.
The City Engineer then introduced new staff members, Emily Huettl, Assistant City Engineer and Stephen Joersz, Traffic
Engineer.

CITY MANAGER’S REPORT
The City Manager listed upcoming meetings including: Western Dakota Energy Association Annual Meeting November 7-8,
MADC Board Meeting November 8th, Legislative Forum November 13th, NDLC City Manager Forum November 14th,
Broadway Bridge ribbon cutting November 15th, Chamber Board Meeting November 20th, Library Merger Committee
meeting November 29th and Minot Fire Department Graduation Ceremony November 30th. He also announced that City
offices will be closed November 12th and 22nd for holidays.
Mr. Barry then gave a quick update about the Governor’s visit to Minot. Governor Burgum met with City staff and the
Mayor and discussed coordinating with the State on important issues. The City Manager said, Minot has a similar vision as
the Governor for downtown and one of the issues they focused on was employment challenges for Minot and the rest of
North Dakota. He said, the Governor gave some serious input on a few things and seemed receptive. He also emphasized
keeping the youth engaged in planning and decision making.
The City Manager then brought up the City Council Retreat. He listed the topics that were discussed and the issues they
didn’t get to during the meeting. He then said, staff is proposing a change to the City Council schedule that is different than
what was discussed at the Council Retreat. He is recommending the Council meetings for 2019 be held on the first and third
Page | 7
November 5, 2018 Regular City Council Meeting
Monday of each month at 5:30 pm, eliminating the Committee of the Whole meetings. The ordinance revisions necessary to
make the change can be brought to the December 3rd Council meeting and will require a special meeting in December for
second reading. The Council directed staff to move forward with the changes to hold meetings on the first and third Monday.
Next, the City Manager discussed the Legislative Forum that will take place November 13th at 8:30 am. The Council decided
on six local topics to be proactive in supporting, three local topics the City will prepare to defend, and ten topics that will be
closely monitored during the legislative session. Information is being prepared on the issues to provide legislators with
simple notes on the City’s position.
He informed the Council that the North Dakota League of Cities is holding a legislative workshop December 5th which is
open to all elected and appointed city and park district officials.
Mr. Barry said, the city of Minot hosted a conference for the Economic Development Association of North Dakota. There
were three days of meetings and tours around the city.
He announced that Election Day is November 6th and polls are located in the Armory at the Auditorium. The City is also
providing free transit throughout the day to help promote voting and give residents the opportunity to try out the city’s public
transportation. He mentioned, there is a new transit ticketing machine located at the Auditorium. The new technology is the
first in the state and will make transportation more convenient for riders.
The City Manager shared some statistics regarding the NDR program by stating, Minot ranks second in progress among NDR
grant recipients. So far, we have spent 21.65% of our funds, which must be expended by September 30, 2022. He explained
that acquisitions and affordable housing, which are our two largest activities, have been progressing well which is why we
are among the leaders. There has also been considerable legwork done in the other activities but the money hasn’t been spent
on them yet, which is why it does not factor into our progress. He then expanded on the progress of NDR projects by saying,
approval was granted from SHPO to move forward with the gathering space without any historical restrictions. The
environmental review was also completed so the City is ready to begin negotiating with property owners.
He gave construction updates on the Broadway Bridge and the U.S. 83 Bypass. He said, the two year project replacing the
Broadway Bridge is nearly complete. Crews are finishing grinding the concrete, placing lights and putting up traffic signals
before the ribbon cutting ceremony, November 15th. The City has been working with the NDDOT on the U.S. 83 Bypass
which remains on schedule for the two year project. The project is helping to alleviate the traffic burden from town and
serves as a major route for over 10,000 vehicles daily. Mr. Barry said, they are encouraging legislators and the Governor to
restore funding to continue the widening the Bypass from 4th to Hwy 83. He explained that it is a major corridor for missile
movement from the Air Force Base and we were relying on the improvements when we selected the location for Fire Station
#5.
The City Manager concluded his report by introducing Maci, the Police Department’s new K-9.
