CITY MANAGER REPORT
The City Manager listed upcoming meeting dates including, Military Affairs Committee November 7thand Souris River Joint
Board November 7th. He said, City offices will be closed November 11th in observance of Veterans Day. The next City
Council meeting is November 18th, Chamber Board meeting November 19th, ND State Fair Annual meeting November 20th,
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
MAGIC Fund Screening Committee November 22nd, Planning Commission November 25th, offices will be closed November
28th for Thanksgiving, and the downtown tree lighting is November 29th.
He then shared details about the new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that kicked off October 17th. He listed the
objectives of the new system including, increase user access to real-time system data, decreased reliance on staff for financial
data and reports, decrease the number of manual and paper-based processes, improve workflow processes, reduce or
eliminate redundant data entry, and implement a system that provides modern ERP functionality. The intended goals are to
streamline processes and go paperless as much as possible, avoid duplicate entry into multiple systems, ensure that sufficient
and effective training is included as part of the ERP System Implementation, provide a method to track efficiency gains and
ensure appropriate controls are in place as part of the ERP System Implementation. He explained that Phase 1 will include
financials and will take about 12 months before going live. Phase 2 is Human Capital Management and will begin April,
2020 and tentatively go live April 2021. Phase 2A will be ExecuTime Advanced Scheduling and will start May, 2021 and go
live August, 2021 and Phase 3 will include Utility Billing and will start October, 2020 and go live October, 2021. Future
phases will implement new Asset Management and Fleet Management software as well as permitting and land development.
Mr. Barry gave his update on NDR projects. The Environmental Review is done for the Family Homeless Shelter and the
Release of Funds request has been sent to HUD. The City reached agreement on three more zombie homes which means
there are only 14 of the 35 to go. The Gathering Space project doesn’t have much to report. Trinity was sent a letter to gage
their interest but there has been no response yet. Generally, the City will wait about 45 days before the Council should start
looking at next steps. A meeting was held October 24th for Buyout Areas 6 and 6a. There were about 30 in attendance and it
was calm and cordial compared to previous similar meetings. About half of the property owners have finished or scheduled
an intake meeting.
The City Manager continued with construction updates. Phase 1 of Flood Control is about four weeks behind schedule on the
3rd Street project, however, 3rd Street is now open to traffic. The 5th Avenue intersection will open eastbound in a few weeks.
They will continue to work on the pump station through the winter as much as possible. Phases 2/3 of Flood Control is
overall ahead of schedule. Curb and gutter have been placed on 16th Street and once cured it will be fully open for traffic,
which should take place mid-November. The work on Broadway concluded for the year and traffic control has been pulled.
The project spanned 35 of the anticipated 40 blocks of concrete replacement. Final work will be completed in the spring on
next year.
Mr. Barry mentioned the 2020-2024 Capital Improvement Plan and said, staff is compiling the latest list using input from
Council and other departments. Most of the major infrastructure projects have been completed or are in progress but it is
likely there will be some sewer improvements and maintenance projects. He said, the deadline for inclusion of projects is
November 13th, the draft report will be issued to Council January 17th, and the report will be presented during the January 21st
Council meeting.
He then described the recent ICMA Conference he attended in Nashville, TN. There were about 5,500 attendees nationally
and internationally. He said, it was a great opportunity to benchmark other community challenges and initiatives. There were
learning exchanges, roundtable discussions, cutting edge technology, program & project initiatives, professional
development, and municipal performance metrics.
He provided an update on the Buy Local Preference Task Force and the Workforce Recruitment Task Force. The Buy Local
Preference Task Force has made progress on the definition, local purchasing language and bid noticing criteria. He said, he
anticipates two more meetings followed by recommendations to Council. The Workforce Recruitment Task Force has been
studying the issues and trends in the market to find efficiencies. They are focused on streamlining processes, attracting
interest, improving quality candidates and incentivizing employment. He said there will be 2-4 more meetings but in order to
provide a quality report to Council will take until early 2020. He mentioned the Community Engagement Strategy that will be
presented to Council after review by Department Heads.
The Main Street Summit took place in Bismarck October 29-31 and was well attended by Minot representatives. He said,
there were nine keynote speakers as well as multiple break-out session. They discussed topics such as, M.S. infrastructure,
workforce trends, youth in government, census best practices, recreation and infrastructure, art and culture, and volunteerism.
He concluded his report by recognizing Fire Captain Austin Burns who was named Instructor of the Year by the North
Dakota Firefighter’s Association.
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
ATTORNEY REPORT
The City Attorney provided a written report.
RECYCLING PRESENTATION
Jason Sorenson, Assistant Public Works Director, presented additional information about recycling options. He gave a brief
recap of the feasibility study and said the results led to a focus on consolidation and transfer. He explained that the City
currently has $766,956 from the Community Facilities Fund and $250,000 in the landfill budget to be used towards capital
costs. He then described how they calculated the monthly cost for residents. Since we can use existing labor and equipment,
the estimated annual cost can be reduced to about $685,000 per year or about $172 per ton. If that amount is distributed
among the 12,700 accounts, it results in about $4.50 per month for each account.
He described the recycling programs in Fargo, Grand Forks, Bismarck and Dickinson by elaborating on the process, bin size,
and the customer rates.
Mr. Sorenson pointed out some considerations if a joint program with Kalix were to take place. He said, it would eliminate
the need for about $2 million in capital expenses and would eliminate shipping fees. It would however require source
separated collection and an independent utility to handle collection. There would be additional trucks and drivers required
and independent routes. There is the possibility of loose garbage at the curb again and the limited recyclable items could lead
to high contamination rates. He explained that nationally, single stream collection is the direction the industry is heading due
mainly because of safety concerns. Refuse and recycling collection is the 5th most deadly job in the U.S.
He then clarified some inaccurate comments made during the previous recycling discussion. He said the market for
recyclables is still in high demand. China has banned imports which accounted for 50% of global demand for paper and
plastic. There is a huge excess of domestic supply and not enough processors. Chinese are investing $500 million dollars in
domestic infrastructure to process locally and ship to China. There is also an additional $3 billion in planned domestic
investments which will increase demand. It will take 2-5 years to see the effects of these investments but recycling prices
have always been cyclical so there’s no cause to worry about rebounding prices.
He also clarified the landfill savings as a result of recycling. He said, assuming 2,000 tons of recycling is collected per year, it
would equate to about 12,000 cubic yards of landfill space. One landfill cell has a capacity of 640,000 cubic yards of waste
so it would take about 53 years to divert the waste equivalent to one MSW cell. If one cell costs about $1.5 million to
construct, it would save about $28,000 per year over 53 years.
At the conclusion of his presentation, Alderman Wolsky asked if the City does any recycling internally. Mr. Sorenson said, it
varies by department but Public Works and City Hall collect paper, plastic bottles and cans and take them to Kalix.
Alderman Straight asked if glass could be recycled, to which Mr. Sorenson responded by saying, glass is too cheap to make
with raw materials so it is not beneficial to collect.
Mayor Sipma asked about the footprint of recycling, specifically, how much diesel fuel it takes per year to haul recycled
materials and if transferring it causes more harm to the environment. Mr. Sorenson said, the EPA has an equivalency
calculator that he would refer to. He added that during conversations with Dem-Con, they said, the savings from natural
resources making it still more beneficial to recycle.
Alderman Podrygula asked if it would be possible to work with Kalix to coordinate single-stream collection. He said, Kalix
has confirmed they are not interested in single stream and that it would require significant capital input.
Mr. Sorenson then clarified that the facility would cost $2 million to construct and $1 million is already in reserves for the
project. It would also cost about $685,000 per year which would be paid by the monthly customer rates.
Upon questioning by Alderman Jantzer, Mr. Sorenson said, the program would be for residential properties only. The City
does not handle collection for any commercial properties.
Alderman Pitner asked if the $4.50 fee would fluctuate over time, to which Mr. Sorenson said, it is possible. Until we see the
volume of materials, it is hard to predict changes. The cost comparisons provided in the feasibility study include labor costs
but we already have labor. He recommended hiring a recycling coordinator but initially will use existing staff.
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
Alderman Olson asked about a timeline for the project. Mr. Sorenson said, hypothetically, if the Council voted to move
forward, an RFQ would be published and awarded this year and design of the transfer facility and construction could take
place in 2020. He said, he would recommend waiting until spring of 2021 before distributing bins.
Alderman Pitner asked if there is existing City property on which to locate the facility. Mr. Sorenson said, the existing
landfill is not ideal and he would need to map out the new quarters of the expansion to find a location.
Mayor Sipma said, there have been 100 or so residents who have weighed in on the topic so he would like the Council to take
the next three weeks to mull over the issue and bring direction for the Council meeting in December. He suggested Council
members bring ideas to the Assistant Public Works Director to conduct more in-depth review before making a proposal to the
Council.
Alderman Podrygula said he is not yet convinced this is the most environmentally beneficial way to spend money. He said he
would like an expert to provide a ranking of methods to effectively protect the environment in order to see if recycling makes
a significant impact or if there are other solutions such as LED lighting and planting trees.
The City Manager responded by saying, they could try and find someone however, the research on sustainable initiatives
depends on the perspective. It is difficult to quantify for example, the impact of low flow toilets to conserve water or a anti-
idling initiative. The measurement of success could be valued by reducing the carbon footprint, impacts to water quality, or
sustainable aquifers.
Alderman Wolsky said they should take their time to make a decision. The program will be user subsidized so they need to
determine whether it is voluntary or involuntary. He also suggested researching the possibility of using MAGIC fund dollars
to invest in a partnership with Kalix or private haulers. He said they should look into involving businesses in the program.
The City Manager said, the more direction the Council can provide to staff the better. Whether it is voluntary or involuntary
will change the equation. They should also decide whether it should include more than just Minot residents and if a surcharge
should be included for non-participation.
Alderman Olson encouraged the public to contact Council members and let them know their opinions and whether they
would like the Council to make the decision or if they would prefer to have the issue on the ballot during the June election.
Alderman Straight said, he supports a voluntary program. The demographic in Minot is made up of young people and he
believes they will drive the program. He said, there are people in the community who want to do this and he would like to
provide an avenue for recycling to take place.

November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
PUBLIC HEARING: ORDINANCE NO. 5425 - REZONE BLAISDELL BIRD ADDIITON, LOTS 23 & 24, BLOCK
13 – FIRST READING – APPROVED
The City Council held a public hearing to consider a request by Rehab Services, Inc., to rezone Blaisdell Bird Addition, Lots
23 & 24, Block 13 from C1 (Neighborhood Commercial District) to R2 (Two-Family Residential District).
Kevin Streitz, of 432 19th St NW, spoke in opposition to the request. He said, he has issues bringing temporary residents to
the neighborhood especially when very few of the neighbors were informed. His residence is just outside of the notification
area. He doesn’t think it is a positive environment to bring around their families and they do not know what type of people
will be using the facility.
Terry Peterson, Assistant Director of Rehab Services, Inc., came forward to explain the request. He said, Rehab Services is a
501c3 that has been serving the Minot Community since 1988 serving people with disabilities. They began offering addiction
treatment services in 1993 with a partnership with North Central Human Service Center. They are currently licensed to
handle addiction treatment services in the city and have a longstanding relationship with North Central Human Service
Center who approached Rehab Services, Inc. to help meet their requirement to provide beds in the community. He said, this
building suited their needs and he thanked the Building Official and Principal Planner for their help to correct some of the
existing code issues. He mentioned that as a non-profit, they laid out the capital to purchase the building and do any
renovations necessary as well as comply with zoning codes. He said, they are installing a privacy fence on the north and west
sides and they are prepared to comply with any requirements set by the City. He explained that this is a transitional facility
for individuals who are at least six weeks sober and in compliance with their treatment program. The facility will be staffed
24/7 and have security cameras. There is also a handbook in which individuals are required to comply.
Alderman Pitner asked about the number of transitional facilities they operate in Minot, to which Mr. Peterson responded by
saying, this will be the third. Two of them are intensive facilities for those undergoing court ordered or voluntary treatment.
They also continue support in the home or with AA and NA programs. He added that individuals who complete an intensive
treatment program nearly doubles the success rates over incarceration and doubles again if they complete a transitional
program.
Alderman Olson moved the City Council close the public hearing and place and pass ordinance no. 5425 on first reading to
rezone the above property from C1 (Neighborhood Commercial District) to R2 (Two-Family Residential District). Motion
seconded by Alderman Pitner.
Alderman Podrygula expressed concerns about the way the proposal has been handled. He said, facilities and programs like
this are essential but the first thing that should be done is consultations with neighbors so they understand how the facility
operates.
Mayor Sipma suggested there be conversations with State lawmakers to adjust the minimum requirements. He also connected
the facility to the work done with the Mayor’s Committee on Addiction. He mentioned that he feels more comfortable living
near a property such as this one rather than some of the others in the neighborhood. It is a beneficial addition to the
community.
Alderman Wolsky stated, he lives near a similar property and assured the residents near this property, they have been
excellent neighbors. He said, however, he does not support rezoning this parcel as an R2 zone and would prefer it remain C1.
He understands the need for this facility in the community but he does not support the land development practice. He would
prefer this use be accomplished through a conditional use permit.
A vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Olson, seconded by Alderman Pitner and carried by the following roll
call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight; nays: Wolsky.
RESOLUTION NO. 3638 - BLAISDELL BIRD ADDITION, LOTS 23 & 24, BLOCK 13- AMEND THE FUTURE
LAND USE MAP – APPROVED
Alderman Jantzer moved the City Council adopt resolution no. 3638 to amend the future land use map to acknowledge the
change in zone on Blaisdell Bird Addition, Lots 23 & 24, Block 13.
Motion seconded by Alderman Olson and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula,
Sipma, Straight; nays: Wolsky.
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
RESOLUTION NO. 3639 - BLAISDELL BIRD ADDITION LOT 23 & 24, BLOCK 13- CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT – APPROVED
Alderman Pitner moved the City Council adopt resolution no. 3639 for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to operate a Group
Home providing support services and housing for individuals through a contract with North Central Human Services Center
on a short-term basis, including the additional condition requested by staff stating, the NFPA 13D fire suppression system be
installed within 60 days. Motion seconded by Alderman Wolsky.
Upon questioning by Alderman Straight, the City Attorney stated, annual review of the Conditional Use Permit is not
required. There is a provision that states, if no substantial construction relating to the CUP approval takes place within one
year then it is void, as well as if the activity for which the CUP was approved does not take place within six months, the CUP
is void. If the conditions outlined in the permit are not met, the CUP could come back to City Council for revocation.
Alderman Straight raised concerns about installing a costly fire suppression system after the property is purchased.
Alderman Podrygula mentioned the fire safety concerns and said as long as it is adequate by Fire Department standards, then
he is comfortable with it. He commented on the incomplete application which did not include full plans for the property and
only outlined a sketch. He emphasized the need for City staff to have detailed plans before issuing a permit. He said he would
not have supported the CUP without the modifications on fire suppression.
Whereupon a vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Pitner, seconded by Alderman Wolsky and carried by the
following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none.
APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES – APPROVED
Alderman Jantzer moved the City Council approve the minutes of the October 21, 2019 regular City Council meeting.
Motion seconded by Alderman Pitner and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula,
Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none.

$5,224,902.51.

3RD STREET SE AND BURDICK EXPRESSWAY HSIP REJECT BID (4426) – FAILED
Alderman Olson moved the City Council reject the bids for the 3rd Street SE and Burdick Expressway HSIP and authorize
Engineering to reexamine the project. Motion seconded by Alderman Wolsky.
Alderman Podrygula asked how much delay it would cause if the project was deferred. The City Engineer explained, because
this is a DOT project, they are coming up against overhead expenses they cannot get around because there are a lot of record
keeping and requirements to report to the DOT. On a City job, we hold contractors to the same construction standards but the
amount of overhead required is much less. During the second round of bids there was an improvement in the numbers but
that is as low as it is going to get. Federal funds can be allocated to the project up to a certain amount, so if we moved
forward, the project could start next spring but the City’s cost share would go from about $8,000 up to $65,000. If we broke
the project incrementally into pieces there might be a cost savings to the City. The pedestrian signal across from the Zoo
could be done cheaper on its own rather than be included in this project. The crosswalk at 3rd Street started as a pedestrian
signal improvement project but turned into an ADA improvement project which requires reconstructing sidewalks. We could
include the pedestrian improvement project inside the reconstruction or major rehab of 3rd Street which will take place in the
next few years. The overhead cost would then be spread over other items. He said, the decision lies in how quickly we want
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
the improvements done. We could delay them a few years and package it into another DOT project. If we believe the need is
there, we can accept the bid and find additional funding.
Mr. Meyer responded to further questioning by saying, the pedestrian signal at the Zoo is a very doable project in 2020. If we
want to move forward with 3rd Street improvements, the best course of action would be to award the bid at the additional
cost. If we bid the project locally, we would forego the Federal cost share. We could not award one phase of the project
without the other.
Alderman Jantzer emphasized the need for pedestrian improvements on 3rd Street and said he does not want it to be delayed.
Alderman Pitner agreed with the safety concerns and asked if there would be cost implications of a delay for example, due to
inflation.
Mr. Meyer said, it depends on the scope of the project but typically they estimate 2%-3% inflation.
Mayor Sipma pointed out the possibility that when 3rd Street is reconstructed in a few years, they may have to replace some
of the work done during this project. Mr. Meyer said, the poles are in decent shape and could likely be saved but there is a
risk of having to replace some components.
Alderman Wolsky asked if there are any other tactics that could be used to enhance pedestrian safety in the event this project
is delayed. Mr. Meyer said enhanced striping, as well as enhanced parking restrictions could improve safety but the County
would see some operational challenges during that time.
Mayor Sipma commented that since a new State law was passed, the Council could double the fine for a failure to yield.
Alderman Wolsky said, that would be little consolation if someone was hit.
Upon questioning by Alderman Pitner, Mr. Meyer said the pedestrian actuated rectangular rapid flashing beacon is far and
away a better system than the current crossing. Simply installing the equipment doesn’t help unless the buttons are installed
and the buttons require the ADA improvements.
Whereupon a vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Olson, seconded by Alderman Wolsky and failed by the
following roll call vote: ayes: Olson, Sipma, Wolsky; nays: Jantzer, Pitner, Podrygula, Straight.
AWARD OF BID- 3RD STREET SE AND BURDICK EXPRESSWAY HSIP (4426) – APPROVED
Alderman Podrygula moved the City Council award the bid to Strata in the amount of $161,370.65 to move forward with the
3rd Street and Burdick Expressway Improvements project next year. Motion seconded by Alderman Pitner.
Upon questioning by Mayor Sipma regarding a funding mechanism to complete the project, the Finance Director said, we
could take the funding from general fund reserves, from sales tax reserves or there is some money set aside in special
projects. It would require a budget amendment be approved at the next Council meeting.
Alderman Jantzer said sometimes they have to accept that they need to spend the money. They have attempted to bid the
project twice and he believes staff has worked to save money.
Whereupon a vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Podrygula, seconded by Alderman Pitner and carried by the
following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula, Straight; nays: Sipma, Wolsky.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY HYDRAULIC IMPROVEMENTS - FINAL PAYMENT (PROJECT
NUMBER 4202) – APPROVED
Alderman Jantzer moved the City Council approve the final payment amount of $355,397.32 to Wagner Construction, Inc.
for WWTF Hydraulic Improvements project. Motion seconded by Alderman Wolsky.
Alderman Wolsky asked how we would evaluate the success of this project to which Mr. Jonasson replied by saying, the
project upsized the piping from the aeration ponds to the lagoons. In the past, we were limited by the 24” pipe and would
occasionally need to bypass the aeration ponds. The upsized 36” pipe gives capacity for proper treatment so we can already
see the results.
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting

APPROVED

$51,875.00 for the Wastewater Hydraulic Improvements project and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement. Motion
seconded by Alderman Jantzer.
Upon questioning by Alderman Jantzer about the project’s delay, Mr. Jonasson said, it was supposed to be completed in
January but actually finished in September. The contractor was charged liquidated damages in excess of the engineering fees.
Whereupon a vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Olson, seconded by Alderman Jantzer and carried by the
following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none.
MREFPP PHASE BU-1 – BURLINGTON LEVEE PROJECT – APPROVED
Alderman Wolsky moved the City Council approve plans and specifications and recommend approval to SRJB for bidding of
the levee project in Burlington, Phase BU-1 of the MREFPP. Motion seconded by Alderman Straight.
Alderman Wolsky commented on the City’s commitment to the basin-wide project. He said, this is a significant improvement
for the residents of Burlington.
Alderman Straight mentioned the Souris River Joint Board meeting scheduled for Thursday and invited the public to attend.
Mayor Sipma said, the basin-wide commitment will ensure successful partnerships with communities upstream and
downstream.
Motion seconded by Alderman Pitner and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula,
Sipma, Straight, Wolsky; nays: none.

PERSONAL APPEARANCES
None
ORDINANCE NO. 5427- AMENDMENT TO CMCO SECTION 5-8; LICENSEE TO CLOSE AT CERTAIN TIMES
– FIRST READING – APPROVED
November 4, 2019 Regular City Council Meeting
Alderman Wolsky moved the City Council place and pass ordinance no. 5427 on first reading amending Section 5-8 of the
City of Minot Code of Ordinances to allow on-sale of alcohol on Thanksgiving Day. Motion seconded by Alderman Straight.
Alderman Wolsky invited Jon Lakoduk to comment on the proposed motion since he requested Council take the issue under
consideration.
Jon Lakoduk, owner of Saul’s and The Tap Room, said the request is an attempt to align the City’s code with State law with
the exception of the 2:00 am closing time.
Alderman Pitner said, he placed the item on the agenda in order to shore up the ordinance and allow license owners to decide
if they want to serve on certain holidays.
The City Attorney clarified, the only change included in this draft of the ordinance is the authorization to serve on
Thanksgiving. Easter is still prohibited in this amendment.
Alderman Wolsky asked if additional changes could be made to the ordinance before the second reading, to which the City
Attorney replied by saying, yes. Alderman Wolsky then said, he will support the ordinance on first reading but would like to
discuss the 2:00 am closing time before the second reading.
Alderman Podrygula requested the Police Chief be prepared for that discussion at the next meeting.
Alderman Jantzer reminded the Council that it was not long ago that a committee composed of Council members and bar
owners discussed these issues. He said, it is unproductive to keep going back to the same issues looking for a different result.
Alderman Olson requested the notes from those meetings be available for review before the next meeting.
Mayor Sipma said, the committee met in 2016 and was split on the 2:00 am closing time. It was the license holders who
ultimately opposed the change.
A vote was taken on the above motion by Alderman Wolsky, seconded by Alderman Straight, to place and pass ordinance no.
5427 on first reading and carried by the following roll call vote: ayes: Jantzer, Olson, Pitner, Podrygula, Sipma, Straight,
Wolsky; nays: none.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, Alderman Jantzer moved the City Council meeting be adjourned. Motion seconded by
Alderman Pitner and carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 7:57 pm.
