Farrel noted that City Ordinance allows for the construction of building projections in the public ROW but requires the applicant to have approval from the City Council. Farrel stated that, in addition to City Council approval, a written agreement is also required. Farrel stated that this agreement is binding on the current owner and his or her successor in interest and requires the owner at his or her expense to remove the same in the event the governing body of the city, in its sole discretion, shall determine that the portion or projection interferes or has come to interfere with the public interest and welfare or the use of the street, sidewalk, or way.

Alderman Hellwege seconded the motion. 5 Motion carried 8 to 0. President Collier-Wise declared the motion adopted. E. Request to abate a portion of special assessments at 23 N. Harvard Street Mike Carlson, Finance Officer, reported as background that the Apostolic Faith Church previously owned the property at 23 North Harvard Street. Mike stated that the City cited the house that was moved to the lot, but never placed on a foundation, as a dangerous structure after repeated attempts to get the property owners to address the situation failed. Mike noted that City crews removed the structure, filled in the basement and cleaned up the lot in February 2013. Mike noted that since then the City has tagged the property numerous times during their ownership for not mowing the grass and weeds, sidewalk snow removal violations, and sidewalk repairs. Mike stated that the City assessed these costs against the property. Mike noted that the property has since reverted to ownership by Clay County due to unpaid taxes. Mike stated that the property was sold at County auction for $1,100 last week to Nick Slattery with AMS Building Systems, but the City special assessments still remain as a lien. Mike noted that the City has abated a portion of special assessments against a few other properties with similar issues in the past when ownership has been or will be transferred to a new owner who will improve the property. Mike stated that the full amount of special assessments has never been forgiven in these cases as there are landfill fees or contractor fees that are out of pocket costs for the City. Mike noted that any funds from the payments of the liens would be used to pay back the special assessment fund or go to the General Fund to pay back costs expended to correct the deficiencies noted above. Mike reported that Mr. Slattery inquired prior to the County sale about the possibility of abating the special assessment. Mike reported that Mr. Slattery was informed that in the past the City Council has reduced the assessments to cover the out of pocket costs paid by the City for landfill fees, fill material, contractor fees for mowing/snow removal and sidewalk repairs. Mike noted that for this property the out of pocket costs are just under $6,500. Mr. Slattery was informed that the City Council might want interest on some of the assessments. Mike stated that the agenda memo includes the listing of the five special assessments against the property with principal of $14,434.63, interest of $6,806.44. Mike stated that the City costs for landfill, fill dirt, moving, snow removal and sidewalk repairs costs were $6,467.61. Mike noted that the last assessment in 2017 was for sidewalk reconstruction and all other property owners assessed had to pay the interest. Mike stated that Mr. Slattery, on behalf of AMS Building Systems, is requesting the abatement of the City special assessments on the property located at 23 N. Harvard over and above $6,500.00. Mike noted that the email from Mr. 6 Slattery with his request is attached along with plans for the home proposed for the lot which are included in the packet. Mike stated that the City Council will need to determine the amount of assessments, if any, they want to abate for this property, and may want to consider other conditions in exchange for reducing the assessments, such as when the payment will be made and by when a building permit will need to be issued. Alderman Willson stated that he felt the interest on the sidewalk reconstruction assessment should be included as all the other properties had to pay this interest thus including $378.63 for a total of $6,846.24. Mr. Slattery stated that he wanted to build a single family home that would fit with the historic neighborhood. Mr. Slattery stated that he would like to get started as soon as possible but would need to have the plans reviewed by the Historic Preservation Commission. Mr. Slattery stated that he felt he could be ready by June 1st. 93-19 Alderman Willson moved approval of accepting a payment of $6,846.24 as full payment of the special assessments certificate numbers 7659, 7830, 7842, 7854 and 7869 for the property at 23 N Harvard with the conditions that the payment be made by June 1, 2019, an application for building permit be made by June 1, 2019, with these conditions being included in an agreement as part of the building permit and the Finance Officer be authorized to notify the County of the satisfaction of the outstanding special assessments. Alderman Ward seconded the motion. Discussion followed. Motion carried 8 to 0. President Collier-Wise declared the motion adopted. F. First reading of Ordinance 1400 to amend Title III Administration, Chapter 34 Taxation, Section 34.24 defining the use of Municipal Gross Receipts Tax (BBB revenue) John Prescott, City Manager, reported that, at the February 4, 2019 noon meeting, the City Council reviewed a proposal to modify the use of Municipal Gross Receipts Tax which has been referred to the Bed, Board and Booze tax. John reported that the proposal was referred to the Policies and Procedures Committee and the Labor and Finance Committee for review and report. John noted that the report from the committees was presented at the March 18th meeting. John noted that the City Attorney recommended that the new language proposed by the committees follow the current City Code language vs having the proposed language preceding the existing language. 7 Alderman Willson thanked both committees for the review of the ordinance language. 94-19 President Collier-Wise read the title to the above mentioned Ordinance and Alderman Willson moved adoption of the following Resolution: BE IT RESOLVED that the minutes of this meeting shall show that the title to proposed Ordinance No. 1400 entitled An Ordinance Amending the Language Governing the Use of Municipal Gross Receipts Tax of the City of Vermillion, South Dakota has been read and the Ordinance has been considered for the first time in its present form as amended to include in the second sentence after Priority “for allocation of revenue” and content at this meeting being a regularly called meeting of the Governing Body of the City on this 1st day of April, 2019 at the Council Chambers in City Hall in the manner prescribed by SDCL 9-19-7 as amended. The motion was seconded by Alderman Holland. Alderman Sorensen reported that at the committee meeting he was concerned about the need to define “priority” and had suggested using “may” instead of “will”. He noted that the VCDC has been given priority in prior years receiving the majority of the BBB revenues noting that the ordinance change is not needed as this has been the practice of the City. Discussion followed noting that the committee also wanted to formalize the City's working relationship with the VCDC by requesting additional information and budget request presentation. After discussion, the question of adoption of the Resolution was put to a vote of the Governing Body and 7 members voted in favor of and 1 members voted in opposition to the motion. President Collier-Wise declared the motion adopted. G. City of Vermillion Solid Waste Department Tractor Lease with C & B Operations, LLC Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that the City was approached by C & B Operations, LLC, formerly Fred Haar, Co, about leasing a tractor for approximately seven months. Jose reported that last year the lease was for $12 per hour for the first 250 hours and this year the lease is being raised to $25 per hour. Jose stated that the City is responsible for insurance and normal maintenance and repair during this lease. Jose noted that the insurance cost is estimated at $200 and maintenance would be required on City vehicles if used. Jose stated that the use of the leased equipment reduces the hours placed on the other vehicles in the City fleet. Discussion followed. 95-19 8 Alderman Sorensen moved approval of the lease agreement with C & B Operations, LLC for a tractor for up to seven months at the lease rate of $25 per hour plus insurance and maintenance and authorized the City Manager to sign the lease documents.

Jose reported that construction of sidewalks through, and around, the park started last year with the construction of a sidewalk from the pool north towards East Clark Street and east towards the parking lot. Jose reported that the 2019 phase of the project will construct a sidewalk on the south side of East Clark Street from North Plum Street to Prentis Avenue.

John reported that the current multiplier of 128% of the winter water usage is sufficient to meet the 2019 wastewater budget and the debt service requirements. John reported that the wastewater multiplier will remain the same and the only change a customer would experience is if there average winter water consumption was higher or lower than the previous year.

John reported that the City was contacted by Verizon about applying for a conditional use permit for a telecommunications tower on the west side of Market Street between the parking lot and the National Guard building.

President Collier-Wise reported that the Council meeting will be moved to the large conference room for presentation on New Business Item H Presentation of the Highway 50 Storm Drainage Study followed by the Executive Session and adjourn. H. Presentation of the Highway 50 storm drainage study Jose Dominguez, City Engineer, reported that South Dakota Highway 50 (SD Hwy 50) runs east to west along the north border of the City. Jose noted that, in addition to moving traffic, the highway ditches also move large amounts of storm water west to the Vermillion River. Jose noted that the ditches also carry a large amount of storm water generated within the City. Jose reported that, due to the topography of the area, the ditches along SD Hwy 50 tend to be flat and, as such, they are typically full of water and vegetation. Jose stated that this negatively affects the City’s storm drainage because there is not as much room in the ditches for the City’s storm water. Jose stated that, in 2017, the City Council approved a contract with S.E.H. to complete a conceptual study of possible improvements along the south ditch of SD Hwy 50. Jose noted that these improvements are meant to improve the drainage along the ditch for both the City and State. Jose reviewed the 16 options as contained in the study for the SD Hwy 50 drainage as well as drainage issues for the city storm drainage system that drain into the SD Hwy 50 ditch. Jose answered questions of the City Council on the storm drainage study. Jose reported that the SD Hwy 50 drainage study has been provided to the SD Department of Transportation as they are in the planning process for improvements to SD Hwy 50 and that we would like to work together to include the ditch drainage improvements into the road improvements being planned. Jose noted that no action is needed and that he would provide any information from the state when it is available. 13 Executive Session – Real Estate Matters 100-19 Alderman Ward moved to go into Executive Session at 8:28 p.m. for real state matters.
