POLICY ON ADMINISTERING CONSTRUCTION CHANGE ORDERS
The City of Brookings regularly awards contracts for various types of construction
projects. Changed conditions, alternate materials, plan changes, omissions,
errors, and owner directed changes, etc. often require change orders to the
construction contract. Policy guidance from the City Council to direct the
administration of such change orders is necessary. The City of Brookings' policy
on administering Construction Change Orders (CCO's) is as follows:
1. The City Manager is hereby authorized to approve CCO's and proceed with
the change in work. A final contract amendment will be submitted to the
Council for official city action in order to adjust the original contract to
match the final project cost. This action is necessary for auditing
purposes.
2. The City Manager may not approve any CCO that changes the Council-
approved scope of the construction project.
3. The City Manager may not approve any ceo that increases any item of
work in the contract by more than $25,000.
4. The City Manager may not approve any CCO that the increases the project
budget.
5. All CCO's that increase project costs must be funded with the project
contingency fund.
6. The City Manager will report CCO's to the City Council in a timely fashion.

EXPLANATION OF CHANGE ORDER-FOR FINAL PAYMENT
SOCCER IRRIGATION PROJECT
To accommodate a change in the type of irrigation pump purchased and to
reconcile actual measured feet of irrigation pipe installed as compared to drawing
estimates, a change order to the base price is needed for final payment on the contract.
Pipe footages were bid based on estimates from the scaled drawing in a lump sum
bid for the total project. In addition, a unit price (per foot) bid was also required for each
pipe size, knowing that field adjustments would likely be needed in the final layout on
site, and the unit price figure would be used to adjust final contract cost.
This turned out to be the case. With the 1.25 thru 2.5 inch size pipe there was a
small increase in length for each field because a field decision was made to extend the
sprinklers a few feet beyond the out-of-bounds end line on each field to be out of the way
of line painting and to keep as many sprinkler heads out of the actual playing field as
possible, for safety concerns. The original drawing and measurements coincided exactly
with field size, hence the sprinkler heads on the line.
The 100 foot increase each in the 4 and 6 inch distribution lines resulted when the
main feeder line was moved about 65 feet from the plan location to the east property line,
to get it out of a main drainage way and more accessible for future maintenance.
The major change in footage concerns the 8 inch feeder line which extends over
to the pump station adjacent to the ponds at the old landfill, a distance of 2,200 lineal
feet, or a little less than one-half mile. Two reasons contributed to the extra 680 feet for
this main line.
When the irrigation plans were drawn last winter, we knew we would be going to
the landfill ponds. However, the irrigation engineer (Rain Bird Irrigation) assumed the
line went east from the south boundary of the southeast field, when, in fact, it needed to
extend 500 feet farther south and then east to the old landfill. This fact wasn't realized
until the contractor laid out his pipe in September and found himself short. The other 180
feet was due to our not being able to make a 45 degree angle as planned at the end of the
nm, heading towards the pond, due to windbreak trees and having to cross the bike trail at
a bad spot. Instead the line was extended east to a point directly north of the pump
station and then turned with a 90 degree angle, resulting in extra feet.
None of these changes were foreseen. However, with the unit prices in place, the
Change Order is a pre-bid definite cost, with no negotiation involved. The changes do
not alter the scope of the project.
The final part of the Change Order involves an increase of $560 for what is
clearly an improved pump from the one specified and bid. Subsequent to opening bids,
the supplier, Rain Bird Equipment, proposed an alternate to the type of pump to be
provided, from a centrifugal (suction) type, to a vertical drive shaft type.
Centrifugal pumps rely on suction and as the lift distance increases (especially
approaching 8-10ft.), the pump efficiency and capacity decreases somewhat. We know
we will experience a water table variation (lowering) of up to 8 and maybe more feet in
extremely dry years, and this could be a concern. Their proposal would substitute what is
called a vertical shaft pump which pushes rather than sucks the water up to the pump. It
is not affected by low water as long as the shaft end is deep enough and still in water.
The other long term beneficial effect is that the pump motor size could be reduced
from 50 horsepower to 40 horsepower and still retain adequate gallons per minute for our
system, thereby resulting in an approximate 20% savings in electrical power.
The small extra cost for this pump is certainly outweighed by the benefits and I
was given permission to allow that change early on, with the assumption it would be part
of the final change order after the pump was actually installed.
These changes put our total contract price at $115,496.40 as compared to
$110,000 bid. Adding the $25,000 irrigation grant credit puts our irrigation distribution
system cost at $140,496.40, well within our budget estimate of $145,400. Formal
approval is requested at this time.

4. Pump station is complete except for lowering pump into place and final
electrical hookup and testing (contractor's responsibility). Our electrical
contractor is just completing electrical service to the main breaker panel in the
pump house (our responsibility). The contractor's pump manufacturer
representative is scheduled to be on site on November 8tl' to install the pump.
By mutual agreement this date is satisfactory, as our service will be completed
by then.
It is my opinion that Smith Pump and Irrigation has fulfilled the terms of the
contract within the allocated time.
FINAL INSPECTION
On November 20, 200 I, a final inspection was held at the site with the following
people present: Don Smith, Allyn Frerichs, Ron Eggen, and Bernie Stewart. The
pump station is complete and all construction equipment has been removed from
the site. Topics discussed included the following:
I. As-built drawing -A full size inigation plan drawing will be provided to the
owner, with all field changes clearly marked and located.
2. Pressure testing and line cleaning -All main lines have been pressure-tested
with compressed air and were found to be satisfactory. Lateral lines were
individually blown out with compressed air with the end-line sprinkler head
removed, to remove filings and foreign material
3. Start -up -By mutual agreement, due to the lateness of the season, it was
decided not to put water in the system, as it would then have to be quickly
blown out again and winterized. Specifications call for one start-up and
one winterization as part of the contract, and these will be spring 2002 and fall
2002.
4. Warranty -_Specifications call for one full year's warranty on materials and
workmanship. Mr. Smith stated the warranty period will begin at start-up,
spring 2002, and he will provide a letter to that effect, which will also describe
work to be preformed next spring at start-up.
5. Final payment and change-order -Final contract payment is due at this time.
No retainage is necessary as all subsequent start-up procedures are covered by
the warranty. A change-order will be processed to cover the change in the
pump from centrifical to vertical shaft and as-built field measurements of line
installed versus estimates on drawings.

Brookings Advisory Committee for People who have Disabilities
Recognition of Brookings Nominees for the 2002 "Governor's Awards"
The Governor's Awards are an annual program of the State Division of Rehabilitation Services
that recognizes individuals, employers and agencies for their contributions to the rehabilitation
and employment of persons with disabilities in South Dakota. The Brookings Advisory
Committee for People who have Disabilities actively promotes this award program in the
Brookings area.
This year four award nominations will be submitted. Final selection of these awards will be made
by the Governor's Committee in January, 2002. These nominees will be recognized at the
December 10, 2001 City Council meeting at 5:30p.m. in City Hall.
The Brookings Hy-Vee Food Store has been nominated for the "Outstanding Employer of More
Than 200". This award is given to a private employer who has hired and successfully incorporated
employees with disabilities into their business.
The Outstanding Employee with a Disability award is to recognize exceptional achievement of an
individual with a disability in competitive employment. The following individuals have been
nominated for this award: Emily Bennett, Division of Rehabilitation Services and
Becky Hedlund, Larson Commons, SDSU.
The Governor's Award for Outstanding Public Employer is given to a public employer who has
demonstrated outstanding commitment to improving employment opportunities for people with
disabilities. Dave Purvis, Supervisor of Custodial Staff at SDSU, has been nominated for this
award.

Compensation Fund and the South Dakota Public Assurance Alliance. The purpose of the award
program is to promote loss control and safety awareness and to honor members who work hard in
these areas. Loss control and safety programs save money by protecting our employees and reducing
our exposure to civil liability.
There are three different achievement levels in this award program. An application along with all
documentation was completed and submitted to the award committee. The City met the qualification
requirements for the Gold award level, which is the highest award level presented. The award was
announced at the SDML Annual Conference held in Spearfish in October. Mr. Doug Kirkus, Loss
Control Manager with Risk Services of South Dakota, Inc. will be here on the I Oth to present the
award to the Council.
Action: No action-recognition event.
8. Presentation by Claude McKinney regarding the development of a Centennial Campus.
E-mailed to the Council some time ago:
Brookings Economic Development Corp. (BEDC) and the Ron Reed Economic Development Center (EDC)
have been working to enhance the growth and prosperity of the business community.
The BEDC recently completed a Short Term Economic Development Plan, which identified SDSU
as "our leading resource". It also suggests the identification of businesses that can use the resources available
through the University. Other Objectives of the Plan encourage opportunities to enhance SDSU graduate
retention, capitalize on research and technology and encourage the open dialog with University Departments
on business growth opportunities.
The EDC and the University have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding, which promotes
the utilization of the Business Incubator by SDSU students, professors, alumni and entrepreneurs identified
tlrrough the University to aid in the facilitation of new businesses and job creation. Some of these
entrepreneurial pursuits can expect to succeed through the transfer and commercialization of technologies
created through the University. Tltis will result in increased royalty revenues to the University in addition to
the creation of wealth resulting from the development of new businesses.
What is really happening here is the gradual evolution of partnerships between the University and
the business community. North Carolina State University recognized the value of these partoerships about
sixteen years ago when it created the "Centennial Campus". A recent article entitled Centennial Campus: A
Look at a Progressive National Model, by Jeni Lyttle published in NC State Magazine recites that
"Centennial Campus was fom1ded upon the belief that the best way to transfer technology is to create an
environment that fosters idea sharing and innovation, and promotes reality-based teaching and learning. That
boils down to win-win partnerships with organizations that have direct progranunatic ties to NC State."
According the Article, the Centennial Campus which consists of 1,334 acres adjoining NC State's
main campus is currently "home to some 1,300 corporate and govermnent employees; 1,200 university
faculty, staff members and postdoctoral students; 2,050 university students; 500 middle school students; and
more than 70 diverse organizations" working out of fifteen new buildings which have been built on the
Campus.
Claude McKinney has been instrumental in the development of the Centennial Campus from its
inception. He was appointed to be the coordinator of the project and continued to be highly involved until his
recent retirement. Claude has a working knowledge about every aspect of the Centennial Campus, from the
gronnd up. He has accepted our invitation to come to Brookings and SDSU to share his ideas with us about
where we are and what we might be able to do to replicate the success of t11e Centennial Campus here at
SDSU. He will be asked to specifically address the feasibility of a formal affiliation arrangement between the
University and the Economic Development Center. Such au arrangement couid maximize the opportunity for
Federal financial assistance through t11e LEADERS Act pending in Congress.
Claude will be here between the dates ofDecember 10, 2001 and December 13, 2001. The Conncil
will visit with Claude at its meeting on December 10. Claude will be visiting with a nmnber of people and
gronps in the community.
It is believed that this project can provide a healthy supplement to many of the exciting programs
already envisioned by the University including the Foundation's new Enterprise Institute, The Sun Grant and
Dr. Robert Warren's Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies.
Action: No action~ Informational.
9. Discussion and possible action to terminate Staurolite Alcohol Operating Agreement
with the City of Brookings. At this time I have no information from Brookings Hospitality, L.L.C. I
have enclosed copies of the three letters I have written to Mr. Folkerts of Brookings Hospitality,
L.L.C., the operating agreement, a history of the agreements, and the policy. In researching the
history, I find that the liquor store recovered its unpaid balance from First Edition, but that was prior
to knowing of a bad check that was written and eventually never recovered. This had little to do with
this action, as it was a different owner and operator.
Currently, the present operator (Brookings Hospitality, L.L.C.) owes the City $1,795.09. I know there
is a party working to take over the business, but have little more information.
City Manager Recommendation: No recommendation can be made until further information is
received. Under the current circumstances termination would be recommended, but I assume we will
receive new information.

I appreciated the call two weeks ago. I hope that you are progressing with new plans for
your operation. I am writing to remind you of important issues regarding your operating
agreement with the City. First, you were served with a 90-day notice of termination in
accordance with the agreement. The City Council is scheduled to consider termination on
December 10, 2001. Second, there is still an unpaid balance at the Liquor Store. Third,
the City will need evidence of compliance with Sections XI and XV of the agreement.
These sections relate to payment of all taxes, utilities, salaries, benefits, insurances, and
other expenses.
I want to remind you that the agreement is between Brookings Hospitality, LLC. and the
City of Brookings not between Ken Leisinger and the City. You first need to be in
compliance with the agreement to be able to avoid termination and utilize the operating
agree1nent.
Sincerely,

As discussed, I checked the status of the operating agreement for the location of the Staurolite
Inn. The operating agreement is with Brookings Hospitality, Inc. and the person signing the
agreement was Ken Leisinger. There was no assigmnent of the agreement; the agreement is with
your company and that will be the city's position.
An employee of Mr. Leisinger wrote the bad check to the City ofBrookings for the amount of
$510.95. The total owed to the city at that time was $1395.69. Since then, there have been
charges of$399.40 that are now past due. The total due is $1795.09.
The City, through the State's Attorney, is prosecutiog for the bad check. I suggest that you bring
the account current and if there is any recovery for the bad check it will go to you.
While I will work with your company and hope you find suitable arrangements to fully utilize
the operatiog agreement, I must stress that the City considers its agreement to be with Brookings
Hospitality, Inc. and Brookings Hospitality, Inc. is responsible for meeting the terms of the
agreement.
Please contact me with any questions.

The City Council recently adopted the enclosed policy on liquor operating agreements. This policy
applies to the Operating Agreement between the City of Brookings and Brookings Hospitality, LLC. As
you can see, the City does not intend to have operating agreements unused.
I have also enclosed a copy of the Operating Agreement. I want to point your attention to Sections VI
and XV Section VI allows the City to revoke or suspend an operating agreement for late payment for
alcoholic beverages supplied by the Municipal Liquor Store. I understand there are unpaid invoices with
the Liquor Store. Section XV allows the City to demand evidence that salaries, etc. of the business are
paid. There have beeu some indications that there are some outstanding expenses of the business
connected with the on-sale liquor establishment. The City would like evidence of all the expenses paid.
In sunnnary, there are three issues that are important at this time:
1. The unpaid balance with the Liquor Store. This must be paid.
2. Any unpaid employees, employee benefits and any other unpaid bills. I need evidence that
those are paid.
The two issues above are clitical to maintaining the Operating Agreement. The
Operating Agreement is with Brookings Hospitality, LLC and it is responsible for the
agreement and unpaid bills.
3. The unused agreement. I understand that you are attempting to rectifY this situation and I am
certain the Council understands that may take some time.
Tbis Jetter shall serve as the City's notice of its intent to terminate the Operating Agreement with
Brookings Hospitality, LLC, effective ninety (90) days after you receive this notice. The City Council
will meet on December I 0, 2001 to cousider the termination of the agreement. If circumstances change,
please let me know plior to that date.

City Council Policy
Liquor Operating Agreements
Adopted August 13, 2001
The City of Brookings is the holder of State Liquor Licenses for the sale of alcoholic
beverages. The City of Brookings enters into operating agreements with business
owners permitting them to sell alcoholic beverages purchased from the City. The City of
Brookings established a policy for the consideration of additional operating agreements
with the City. The policy establishes the criteria for applying for an available, but un-
issued operating agreement This addition to that policy will clarify the City Council's
policy on the consideration of changes in existing operating agreements.
1. It is not the City's intention to allow operating agreements to be sold.
2. It is not the City's intention to have issued operating agreements be unused by
the manager. Failure to use the agreement will be grounds for termination by the
City. The city manager will report any inactive operating agreements to the City
Council to consider the circumstances and for appropriate action.
3. Operating agreements are not assignable or transferable to another person or
location by the named manager; only the City Council can assign or transfer an
agreement to another person or location.
4. The purchaser of an establishment holding an operating agreement must apply
for an assignment of that operating agreement. It is the City's intent to allow an
assignment of an operating agreement to an applicant that passes the "character
of the applicant" requirement as a new owner of an existing business in the same
location.
5. The owner of an establishment holding an operating agreement must apply for
an assignment of that operating agreement if there is a desire to move the
business to a different location. It is the City's intent to allow an assignment of an
operating agreement to a new location providing the location is suitable, "second
tier criteria" is considered and the business identity is the same as in the initial
application.
6. Unless the circumstances are as described in number 4 and 5 above, it is not the
City's intent to allow the assignment of an operating agreement from one
business to another or one location to another. In these instances, an application
for a new operating agreement is necessary.
Policy Establishing Criteria
For The Issuance Of Additional
On-sale Liquor Licenses
South Dakota Codified Laws (SDCL) limit the maximum number of on-sale liquor
licenses and provides criteria for the issuance of licenses.
Maximum Number of on-sale licenses
SDCL 35-4-11 provides in part: The number of on-sale licenses issued may not
exceed three each for the first one thousand of population or fraction thereof and not
exceed one each of such licenses for each additional one thousand five hundred of
population or fraction thereof. The quotas established in this section do not apply to
malt beverage retailers.
SDCL 35-4-1 defines "population" as the number of inhabitants as determined by
the last preceding federal census. A 1939 Attorney General Opinion states that
"preliminary census bulletins" are official.
Criteria for Issuance of Alcoholic Beverage Licenses
SDCL 35-2-1.2 provides all applications for retail licenses ... shall be submitted to
the governing board of the municipality within which the applicant intends to
operate .... The governing board:
"shall have discretion to approve or disapprove the application depending on
whether it deems the applicant a suitable person to hold such license and whether it
considers the proposed location suitable."
SDCL 35-2-6.2 provides the "character" requirements for alcoholic beverage
licensees:
"Any license under this title ..... must be a person of good moral character, never
convicted of a felony, and, if a corporation, the managing officers thereof must have like
qualifications."
Procedure for issuance of licenses
Procedurally, SDCL 35-2-3 provides that "no license for the on or off-sale at retail
of alcoholic beverages .... shall be granted to an applicant for any such license, except
after public hearing, upon notice." SDCL 35-2-5 provides the procedure for the time
and place of hearing and for publication of notice. If an application for a license is
refused, "no further application may be received from a person until after the expiration
of one year from the date of a refused application."
The City of Brookings is anticipating that the 2000 census will count a population
of at least 17,501 people, allowing one additional On-Sale Liquor License. The
population may increase by 2,731 which would allow two additional On-Sale Liquor
Licenses.
Several business people have expressed a desire to obtain an on-sale license
when it becomes available. With this knowledge, the City Council of the City of
Brookings desires to establish criteria for the issuance of licenses over the current
fourteen issued. Currently, the fourteen license holders are:
ON-SALE

SDCL and case law support the premise that the decision to issue an alcoholic
beverage license is discretionary. Therefore, the City of Brookings hereby establishes a
two-tiered process to evaluate on-sale liquor applications. The first tier will assess the
character of the applicant and whether the location is suitable. A person convicted of a
felony is prohibited from applying for a license; therefore, a convicted felon would fail
the character test. In determining suitable location, the Council will involve the
determination of whether the location is suitable, consistent with the procedure
developed through South Dakota Case Law. This includes the manner in which the
business is operated; the extent to which minors frequent or are employed in such place
of business; the adequacy of the police facilities to properly police the proposed
location, and other factors associated with the sale of alcoholic beverages.
The City will check for compliance with the State requirement that the "character
of the applicant" be acceptable. Upon finding evidence that the character of the
applicant is acceptable and the location suitable, the City Council will consider second
tier criteria. This process can include examining the best location for economic and
tourism development, the best ancillary uses (restaurant, etc.) developed with the sale
of liquor, the best location in accordance with the city long-range plan, the size of the
facility, parking facilities, closeness to existing supplementing businesses and activities
deemed important by the City Council.
10. Public hearing and action on liquor and wine alcohol beverage license renewals.
The annual state liquor and wine licenses expire on December 31, 2001. Listed on the enclosed
page are the Brookings establishments requesting renewal of their license. Please note, all are
renewals, no new licenses are being requested at this time. In accordance with state law, all license
renewals must be acted on by the governing body. The City Council will hold a public hearing and
take action on these liquor and wine license renewals on Monday, December 10, 2001 at 5:30p.m. A
legal notice, as required by State law, was published on November 30, 2001.
The period of renewal is fi·om January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2002. The cost of the liquor license
renewal is $1,500 and the wine renewal is $350, both are payable to the City.
All renewal applicants were instructed to complete a new State Alcohol application including
corporate information. All were required to verifY the application information including their
Business Sales Tax Number, number of video lottery machines, if their real estate taxes paid to date
and if they have ever been convicted of a felony. Police Chief Dennis Falken has indicated that he
has no problem with issuing a renewal to any of the establishments.
In accordance with City Ordinance 31-00, the following businesses were also required to remit a
check in the amount of $50 per machine in order to qualiJY for your alcohol beverage license renewal:
Park Place Inc., Lantern Lounge, Pleasant Lounge, Prairie Lanes Inc., Dakota Ram Inc., Brookings
Hospitality LLC, Elks Club, and VFW. All other establishments pay during the malt beverage license
renewal period.
In order for timely processing, all applications must be returned to the Department of Revenue by
December 17, 2001. At which time, the South Dakota Department of Revenue will review the
applications to confirm the following: real estate taxes are paid, the owner has not been convicted of a
felony, alcohol and sales tax licenses are in the same name and if the sales taxes are paid.
There are no unpaid invoices with the liquor store other than that previously reported. Action on the
Brookings Hospitality, L.L.C. will depend on information received prior to or at the meeting.

13. Action on Resolution 62-01, a resolution dissolving the City of Brookings Housing and
Redevelopment Commission for the purpose of electing to participate in the Brookings County
Housing and Redevelopment Commission. For a number of reasons, HUD has detennined that the
current organization of the Brookings HRA is not proper. The Commission operates for both the City
and the County, but are technically two Commissions operating under a joint powers agreement. This
caused jurisdictional problems. As we prepared documents to correct the problems, the Commission,
the county, and I discussed the issue. It is the recommendation of all involved to dissolve the City
HRA and utilize a County HRA to operate for the City and the County (the City is a part of the
County). The County has agreed to appoint three city residents to the Board so that we are
represented. Ifthere ever was a representation problem or the City has a need for its own HRA, we
could always start a City HRA again. This takes care of the issue, is more efficient, and probably
places the HRA in a better position for future grants as it will represent a broader area.
The County Board is going to appoint current members Margo Dempsey (May, 2002), Stephen
Chappell (May, 2004), and Cyndy Boesch (May, 2005) as the city representatives. The County
representatives will be Emil Klavetter (May, 2003) and Scott Hult (May, 2006). Lionel Torgrude was
a member, but a county employee cannot serve. The terms are consistent with these individual's
current terms.
The statute states that we can dissolve an HRA by resolution so this would accomplish that, however
our HRA is established by ordinance. So, the next item on the agenda is the ordinance that will
dissolve the HRA.

POLICIES
Policies should shape the actions of the City into a consistent, workable plan.
They can be community wide in scope, apply to a general area or pertain to a
neighborhood or use.
Community
1. Create suitable transition zones between low density residential areas and intensive
nonresidential uses.
2. Encourage apartment, institutional, office and limited commercial uses with side
street access as alternatives to commercial strip development.
3. Encourage conveniently located neighborhood commercial centers designed in such
a way that will not create land use conflicts.
4. Promote annexation of land contiguous to the City prior to rezoning or development.
5. Prohibit development on land, which is not adjacent to substantially developed land.
6. Maintain an adequate supply of development land within the area of planned
development.
7. Identify land, which is environmentally unsuitable for construction.
8. Continue a comprehensive approach in planning utility and drainage systems.
9. Encourage high-density housing next to arterial streets, major activity centers, and
South Dakota State University.
Image
10. Protect historic dwellings and other architecturally significant buildings from
incompatible development.
11. Allow flexibility in density and land use when subject to detailed project review by the
City.
12. Utilize and preserve natural drainage systems to the greatest extent possible
13. Protect stream corridors, the aquifer and other significant natural areas from
incompatible development.
Downtown
14. Maintain CBD boundaries in order to prevent encroachment of downtown uses into
adjacent neighborhoods and to more fully utilize the existing CBD area.
15.AIIow flexibility and density of land use in the redevelopment of the existing CBD.
16. Protect significant historic and architectural assets in the CBD from destruction and
incompatible development.

open space for students. In addition, Medary and Hillcrest have the ability to expand if
warranted by increased enrollments or services. Central, on the other hand, has limited
expansion capabilities due to its design and location.
Current education and population issues will likely impact the operation of the
Brookings School District during the planning period. Statewide, enrollment figures
currently decrease from 1500 to 1800 students per year. Decreased enrollments
translate into less funding to schools based on a per student, state aid formula. This
usually causes personnel and program reductions and delays improvements. For
Brookings, it may even cause the closing of one elementary school or create serious
discussions regarding consolidation or shared services with adjoining school districts. It
is unclear over the long term how the anticipated population growth of Brookings will
offset the expected loss of students and the declining rural population.
Parks, Trails and Open Spaces
Parks, trails and open spaces are an important part of a healthy community. A
park may offer a wide range of activities for all ages or cater to a specific age group or
particular activity. Parks are a common place to hold community events and are major
destination points for visitors and tourists. Trails and linear parks have sprung up
everywhere largely due to the rail abandonment process that has occurred throughout
the country and a growing desire of urbanites for convenient recreation areas. Open
space preservation has become a popular component of urban planning due to an
increased environmental awareness within our society. It has been shown to enhance
the value of a development by preserving environmentally sensitive lands and
protecting natural resources. Parks, trails and open spaces are amenities that reflect a
community's values. Therefore, it is important to provide ample opportunities for all
citizens to participate in outdoor activities and enjoy the beauty of the natural
surroundings.
Brookings has 18 established park locations throughout the city. They are
categorized as a community, neighborhood, playground or special use park. Service
area, function, and size are characteristics that are commonly used to define the type of
park. Community parks are generally 15 acres or larger and provide a wide range of
activities and facilities. They usually serve several neighborhoods or an entire city.
Neighborhood parks range from 5 to 15 acres and are designed for playgrounds,
ballfields and courts. These parks serve adjoining residential areas. Playgrounds are
smaller versions of neighborhood parks. The typical activities are primarily youth
oriented and open space is limited. They are generally up to 5 acres in size. The last
category is a special use park. These parks focus on one major activity and vary
greatly in size. Edgebrook Golf Course is a special use park.
The current park system has approximately 420 acres of managed parkland.
This includes the community, neighborhood and playground parks that are maintained
regularly. It also includes the special use parks except for Northbrook Park. The
National Recreation and Park Association has recommended guidelines for the amount
and type of parks a community should have based on its population. Nationally, a
C:\comp-plan\vision2020.doc 28
recognized standard for parks ranges from 7 to 10 acres per 1,000 population.
Brookings has 8.8 acres/1 ,000. The special use parks vary widely from city to city and,
therefore, are not included in the standards. The final component of the park system is
the future park areas. The city has identified ten more park sites that will add another
220 acres in the future. This includes 135 acres that will enlarge Southbrook Park. The
remaining 85 acres will provide recreation opportunities for some developing residential
neighborhoods and future, fringe areas.
The current trail system contains a 6.25 mile continuous loop through the south
part of Brookings and about 1.5 miles of additional trail that winds through several
neighborhood and playground parks. The trail has an all weather bituminous surface
and provides recreational opportunities for walkers, joggers, bicyclists, rollerbladers and
other recreationists.
Open spaces in Brookings have been, historically, temporary in nature. They
exist only until a business, industry or subdivision expands. This is due to the fact that
the land poses minor developmental barriers and the perception that the land is too
economically valuable to leave undeveloped. Recently, the growth of the city has
extended south into areas that have limited potential for development due to lowlands,
and major drainageways. The City of Brookings has taken the first step in preserving
open space by purchasing tracts of land along Medary Avenue South. These lands will
be used as stormwater detention facilities and reserved wetland areas.
Developing new parks, trails and open spaces to meet the recreational and
leisure time needs of the community's residents will be a challenge. Development of
new park facilities must be coordinated with new residential growth so residents will
have convenient access to a neighborhood or playground park. Attention must also be
given to the changing demands for recreation. Modifying or introducing new activities
into existing parks should be explored on a continuing basis.
Designing and extending the trail system should be considered on a community-
wide level. Linking new trails to the existing system requires careful consideration of
adjacent residential developments. Balancing the privacy needs of abutting property
owners with the growing demand for this type of recreation is important. It may be
necessary in some areas to obtain additional right-of-way in order to install sidewalks
and trails side by side. It is also critical to explore extending the trail system into the
northern part of the city or creating an independent loop in combination with SDSU. A
perimeter greenbelt established along the floodplain fringe is another option that would
serve recreational needs and signify the edge of future urban development.
The continued growth of our park system could be enhanced with the
development of a parkland dedication ordinance. The key issues in such an ordinance
include the location, quality and amount of land and proper use of fees in lieu of actual
land dedication. This ordinance would compliment or be included in the subdivision
ordinance. A well-drafted ordinance could benefit the community, neighborhood
residents and the developer.

XIII. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Vision 2020 established a set of goals, objectives and policies for the
community that will guide the city's decision making process regarding future
development patterns. Following the plan will be important if we endeavor to

developments
22. Review the issues directly related to planning that are contained in the
Historic Preservation Plan.
23. Continue to incorporate design features into streets that result in attractive
view corridors
24. Limit urban expansion into Brookings County until a reduction in the large
amount of vacant land occurs within the city
25. Maintain large-lot zoning in the Agricultural District
26. Support the revitalization efforts in the Central Business District
27.Adhere to the annexation guidelines set out in the plan
28. Encourage the development of a unified Capital Improvements Program that

Enclosed are the completed Project Estimate and Final Change Order for your signature. As all
work under this contract is complete, the remaining question pertains to the issue of liquidated
damages. Under the contract, the completion date was September 17, 2001. Liquidated damages
specified in this contract are $500 per day. Final inspection and acceptance was November I,
2001. Therefore, completion of the grading contract was 44 days past the contract completion
date.
Although we realize that the City Council will make the final decision relative to the assessment
of liquidated damages, we would like to provide some background for their decision. Under the
contract, liquidated damages in the amount of $22,000 could be assessed. The contract amount of
$159,207.20 was $30,904.30 under the next bidder, and $196,440.90 under the Engineer's
estimate for the project.
The Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department issued a contract for irrigation with a start date of
September 17, 2001. From the time the irrigation contractor began work, to the completion of the
grading work, it is our estimation that the irrigation contractor was delayed a total of three days.
To our lmowledge, with the exception of the grading, irrigation was the only work to be
performed on the soccer complex tbis year. Aside from the delay to the completion of the
irrigation, no other actual damage to the City is !mown.
From our perspective, the one issue that could be cause for time extension is the variance in the
available topsoil. Soil profiles were provided by the owner and included in the plans for the
contractor's information. On construction, it was discovered that topsoil depths were over-
reported by as much as 50%. Tins caused the contractor to handle much of the topsoil at least
twice, since topsoil had to be stockpiled for later use. Tins situation was not anticipated and
Page2of2
Letter to G. Jongeling
November 9, 2001
despite the vatiation from planned construction, there is no request for additional compensation
from the contractor.
Also, at the request of Mr. Frerichs, additional work was performed by the contractor on the
tournament field. Tiris work involved redisttibution of topsoil from one half of the field to the
other half and then placement of more suitable topsoil on top 4" to 6" to achieve the final grade.
Tiris work was performed by the contractor without request for additional compensation or
contract time.
ill general, we believe all involved would agree that the contractor has been nothing but
cooperative throughout the entire project. Any and all reasonable requests were honored without
dissent. The contractor was genuinely interested in providing the owner with the final product
desired, whether he bid it or not. Tiris type of attitude and cooperation is unusual in this business
and from our perspective, although frustratingly slow at times, the final product was worth the
wait.
Based on the above information and consultation with the imgation contractor and Mr. Frerichs
about project timelines, we recommend that the City Council assess three (3) days of liquidated
damages equivalent to $1500. Tiris amount accounts for the irtigation contractor's time lost.
Having saved almost $31,000 from the second bidder, the issue of liquidated damages assessment
should not cause any issue with any of the other bidders. The City of Brookings was the recipient
of first rate quality work at a bargain basement price and we therefore recommend that liquidated
damages be limited to three days.

This letter is in regards to the request for contract extension and
penalty clause. I believe there should be no penalty enforced for three
reasons.
1) Extra work on the tournament field.
2) Material to be used for the south road. Suitable material was not
found in the west end of the borrow area, requiring extra work
outside the borrow area to find suitable material.
3) The biggest issue was the depth of the black dirt.

dirt that was not planned. Had this not been done,

POLICY ON ADMINISTERING CONSTRUCTION CHANGE ORDERS
The City of Brookings regularly awards contracts for various types of construction
projects. Changed conditions, alternate materials, plan changes, omissions, errors, owner
directed changes, etc. often require change orders to the construction contract. Policy
guidance from the City Council to direct the administration of such change orders is
necessary. The City of Brookings' policy on administering Construction Change Orders
(CCO's) is as follows:
1. The City Manager is hereby authorized to approve CCO's and proceed with the
change in work. A final contract amendment will be submitted to the Council for
official city action in order to adjust the original contract to match the final project
cost. This action is necessary for auditing purposes.
2. The City Manager may not approve any CCO that changes the Council-approved
scope of the construction project.
3. The City Manager may not approve any CCO that increases any item of work in
the contract by more than $25,000.
4. The City Manager may not approve any CCO that increases the project budget.
5. All CCO's that increase project costs must be funded with the project contingency
fund.
6. The City Manager will report CCO's to the City Council in a timely fashion.
9.7.7 The cost of testing services related to remedial operations performed to correct deficiencies in the Work shall
be borne by the Contractor.
9.7.8 If. during the course of the performance of any testing, inspection, control, balancing, adjusting, or similar
work by the Contractor or an agent of the Contractor, it is the opinion of the NE that the Contractor or said agent has
failed to perform such work in a satisfactory manner, the Contractor shall, at his own expense, retain the services of a
service organization which is satisfactory to the NE for the performance of such work.
9.8 Litigation/Arbitration.
9.8.1 Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all claims, counter-claims, disputes or other matters
in questions between the Owner and the Contractor arising out of, or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof,
will be decided by arbitration if the parties mutually agree, or in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State of
South Dakota. Notice of a request for arbitration shall be sent in writing to the other party to this Agreement within a
reasonable time after the claim, dispute or other matter in question has arisen. In no event shall a request for
arbitration be made after the applicable statute of limitations for such claim under South Dakota Law has run. If the
party receiving the notice of request does not agree to arbitration in writing within ten (1 0) calendar days, it will be
deemed that the parties do not mutually agree to arbitrate the matter. A request to arbitrate shall not be deemed a
condition precedent to the institution of legal proceedings. If the parties agree to arbitrate, the provisions of SDCL
Chapter 21-25A shall apply.
9.8.2 The Contractor shall carry on the Work and maintain its progress during any dispute or arbitration or litigation
proceedings, and the Owner shall continue to make payments to the Contractor to the extent required by the Contract
Documents and South Dakota Law.
10.1 Definitions.
Article 1 o
TIME
1 0.1.1 The Contract Time is the period of time allotted in the Construction Contract for Substantial Completion of the
Work as defined in Sub-Article 1 0.1.3, including authorized adjustments thereto.
10.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Notice to Proceed.
10.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion of the Work is the date certified by the NE when construction is
sufficiently completed in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy and utilize the
Project for the use for which it is intended, and such Work is fully completed in accordance with the Contract
Documents except for minor items, adjustments or corrections which have no material effect upon the utilization,
function or intrinsic values of the entire Project, including all of its mechanical, electrical and other systems and
facilities.
1 0.1.4 The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically
designated.
10.2 Progress and Completion.
1 0.2.1 All time limits stated in the Contract Documents, including the Construction Completion Schedule, are of the
essence of the Contract.
10.2.2 The Contractor shall begin the Work on the date of commencement as defined in Sub-Article 10.1.2. He
shall carry the Work forward expeditiously with adequate lorces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the
Contract Time.
10.3 Delays and Extensions of Time.
10.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the progress of the Work by any act or neglect of the Owner or the
NE, or by any employee of either, or by changes in the Construction Completion Schedule required by the Owner, or
by any separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes not
caused by the labor practices of the Contractor or any Subcontractor in contravention of applicable labor practices,
fire, unusual delay in transportation, severe and unusual weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable, unavoidable
casualties, or any other causes beyond the Contractor's control and not occurring due to the fault or neglect of the
Contractor, any Subcontractor or any other person for whose acts the Contractor is responsible, then the Contract
Page 40
~~~~~~~~~~--~--
Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as the Owner shall determine, or the Owner may
elect to require the Contractor to accelerate the Work, in which case the Contract Sum shall be increased by a
Change Order in the amount of the direct cost to the Contractor (exclusive of overhead and profit of necessary over-
time labor).
1 0.3.2 Any claim for extension of time shall be made in writing to the Owner with a copy to AlE not more than ten
(10) days after the commencement of the delay; otherwise it shall be waived. In the case of continuing delay only one
claim is necessary. The Contractor shall provide an estimate of the probable effect on such delay on the progress of
the Work.
1 0.3.2.1 Such claims shall set forth in detail the nature of the circumstances which form the basis for each
such claim, the date upon which each such alleged cause of delay began, or began to affect the timely
prosecution of the Work, and ended, or ceased to have an adverse effect upon the timely prosecution of the
Work, and the number of days extension of time requested as a consequence of each such alleged cause of
delay. The Contractor shall provide such supporting documentation as the Owner may require, including,
where appropriate, a revised Construction Completion Schedule indicating all of the activities affected by the 1 D.
circumstances which form the basis for the claim.
1 0.3.2.2 The Contractor shall not be entitled to a separate extension of time as a consequence of each one
of a number of causes of delay which may have a concurrent or interrelated effect on the progress of the
Work.
1 0.3.2.3 The Owner shall have the right to defer his decision or decisions with reference to any claim or
claims for an extension of time made pursuant to the provisions of this Article until the facts or circumstances
which form the basis for such claim or claims may be fully assessed to the Owner's reasonable satisfaction.
1 0.3.2.4 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sub-Article 1 0.3.2, claims for an extension of time arising out of
authorized changes in the Work shall be made in writing prior to or concurrent with the submission of the
Contractor's proposal pursuant to such change. No extension of time arising out of changes in the Work will
be granted subsequent to the date upon which the Contractor is authorized to proceed with such change or
changes in the Work unless specific provisions governing a subsequent determination of an extension of
time have been incorporated in such authorization to proceed with such change or changes in the Work. No
claim for damages or separate compensation for delay arising from such change in the Work shall be
recognized or be deemed valid, it being understood that any additional cost to the Contractor arising from
such change shall be included in the amended Contract Sum set forth in such Change Order.
1 0.3.3 If no agreement is made stating the dates upon which interpretations as provided in Sub-Article 4.13 shall be
furnished, then no claim for delay shall be allowed on account of failure to furnish such interpretations until fifteen (15)
days after written request is made for them, and not then unless such claim is reasonable.
~~~~~~~~~~~-----------~ 1 0.3.4 Should the Contractor fail to substantially complete the Work within the time agreed upon in the Contract
Oocuments, or within such extra time as may have been allowed by increases in the contract or by formally approved
extensions granted by the Owner, the Contractor and the Contractor's surety shall be liable for and shall pay the
Owner the sums hereinafter stipulated as liquidated damages for each calendar day of delay until the Work is
substantially complete: $500.00.
This sum shall be considered and treated not as a penalty but as liquidated damages due the Owner from the
Contractor by reason of inconvenience to the public, added cost of engineering and supervision, and other items
which have caused an expenditure of public funds resulting from the Contractors failure to complete the work within
the time specified in the contract. In addition to liquidated damages, if any delay on the part of the Contractor, any
Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts
any of them may be liable results in any claim by third parties against the Owner or the AlE arising out of such delay,
the contractor shall pay, satisfy, and discharge all losses, damages and expenses arising out of such claims, including
attorneys' fees, and shall ·Indemnify and hold harmless the Owner and the AlE and their agents and employees from
and against all costs, fees, losses, damages, and expenses arising out of such claims enforced against the Owner or
the AlE. L--------------:----:----:-----------=-=\ __
1 0.3.5 No extension of time will be granted to the Contractor for any delay other than those described in Sub-Article
10.3.1.
1 0.3.5.1 Should the Contractor fail, refuse or neglect to supply a sufficiency of workmen or to deliver the
materials with such promptness as to prevent delay in the progress of the Work, or fail in any material
respect diligently to commence and prosecute the Work and to proceed in accordance with the approved
construction schedule, or if the different parts thereof are not commenced, prosecuted, finished, delivered or
installed in such manner as will insure substantial completion in accordance with the approved Construction

Completion Schedule, or if the Contractor shall fail in the performance of any of his obligations under this
Contract in any material respect, the Owner shall have the right to direct the Contractor, upon three (3) days
notice at the Contractor's cost and expense, to furnish such additional labor and to expedite deliveries of
materials (or the Owner may furnish such labor and expedite such deliveries at the cost of the Contractor),
which labor or expediting shall, in the Owner's opinion, be sufficient to speed up and complete the Work in
accordance with the Construction Completion Schedule.
1 0.3.5.2 If such additional labor shall not be available, the Owner shall have the right to direct the Contractor
at the latter's own cost and expense, to work overtime to such an extent as will be sufficient, in the Owner's
opinion, to speed up and complete the Work as herein provided.
1 0.3.6 The Contractor's right to make a claim or claims for an extension of time, as provided in Sub-Article 1 0.3.1,
shall not preclude the Contractor's right to make a claim for delay damages arising out of the Owner's significant
interference, by action or inaction, with the Contractor's Work.
10.4 Beneficial Occupancy.
1 0.4.1 The Owner shall have the privilege of Beneficial Occupancy and the use and benefit of designated areas,
subdivisions or portions of the Project prior to completion and acceptance of the entire Project, provided that such
Beneficial Occupancy shall not unduly interfere with the Contractor's operations nor unduly delay him in completing the
entire Work. Such occupancy and use shall be further subject to the provisions set forth herein and the provisions of
SDCL § 5-18-13.
1 0.4.2 In the event that the Owner desires to exercise the privilege of Beneficial Occupancy, he shall give
reasonable notice to the AlE and the Contractor. If the AlE determines that such proposed occupancy is reasonable
and proper, the Contractor shall cooperate with the Owner in providing services and facilities reasonably required for
the health, safety and comfort of the occupants and other parties lawfully present and/or entering or leaving the
premises. Mutually acceptable arrangements shall be made between the Owner and the Contractor with regard to
procedures, terms and conditions governing the operation and maintenance of such se!Vices and facilities as may be
utilized for the benefit of the Owner. The Owner will assume proportionate and reasonable responsibility for operation
of systems, equipment and/or utilities required to provide such services, in part or in total, including proportionate and
reasonable expenses of operation incidental thereto. No such Beneficial Occupancy shall accelerate the
commencement of any warranty period on any system but only on the particular components being utilized.
10.4.3 The Owner's Beneficial Occupancy or use of such designated areas, subdivisions, or portion of the Work
shall not constitute acceptance of systems, materials, or elements of the Work which are not in accordance with the
requirements of the Contract Documents; nor relieve the Contractor from his obligations to complete the Work; nor for
responsibility for loss or damage due to or arising out of defects in, or malfunctioning of, systems, materials,
equipment, or elements of the Work; nor from other unfulfilled obligations or responsibilities of the Contractor under
the Contract. If, however, damage results solely from any act of the Owner, the Owner will assume its proportionate
responsibility for such damage.
Article 11
PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION
11.1 Contract Sum: The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement for Construction.
11.2 Schedule of Values: Before the first Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to the Owner and AlE a
schedule of values allocated to the various portions of the Work, prepared in such form and supported by such data to
substantiate its accuracy as the Owner and AlE may require. The format and number of copies of such Applications for
Payment shall be as directed by the Owner and the AlE. This schedule, unless objected to by the Owner, shall be used as a
basis for the Contractor's Applications for Payment.
11.3 Monthly Application for Payment.
11.3.1 No later than the fifth (5th) day of each month the Contractor shall submit to the AlE his monthly itemized
application for Payment. The Contractor shall not submit more than one pay application per month. The monthly
Application for Payment shall be supported by such data substantiating the Contractors right to partial payment as the
Owner or AlE may require; including but not limited to City of Brookings Voucher, receipts, releases and waivers of
liens.
11.3.1.1 In applying for payment, the Contractor shall submit his monthly payment estimate based upon the
approved schedule of work for the project, itemized in such form and supported by such evidence as will
show his right to the payment claimed. Claims made on account of materials delivered and suitably stored at

17. Estimate for consulting services. I have enclosed an estimate from Bernard Morris for
providing assistance with the EIS. I also enclosed my letter to him and my request. As you can see,
he estimates $13,000 for the entire scope of services. He estimates that items #1 & #2 of my request
would be in the $5,000 range. Item #3 requires travel and more time, so that makes up the balance. If
he uses less time, the cost would be less. He has reviewed the EIS in preparing this estimate. At this
time, I recommend we employ Mr. Morris for items #1 and #2 of my request. Obviously, at the end
of item# I we will be moving into #2, but we can discontinue services at any time. As you recall, we
approved the budget adjustment to allow payment for this work ($15,000). The EIS encourages the
DM&E and communities without agreement to negotiate. Despite the fact that the STB has not ruled
on the application, we need a review of the plan and a report to determine our next step.
Action: Motion to approve an agreement with Bernard Morris based on the estimate and
request of the city manager-Roll Call
Options:
1. Approve.
2. Deny, with other direction.
City Manager Recommendation: Approve.

Thank you for your letter ofNovember 27, 2001 regarding my possible assistance to
Brookings and an estimate of my charges for same, now that the Surfuce Transportation Board
has issued its :final EIS on the DM&E project.
I have reviewed your outline of what work might be entailed (Final EIS attached to your
letter). I have also reviewed a substantial portion of the STB's final EIS to determine "how big a
hill we have to climb" and the chance of obtaining mitigation beyond the general provisions ofthe
STB's final EIS as they apply to Brookings.
Parts 1 and 2 of the Final Environmental Impact Statement attached to your letter will not
be a problem. Part 3 may be very difficnlt in view ofDM&E's "hard" position taken prior to the
:final EIS. Leverage will have to be obtained. However, there is some room nnder the final EIS
for further negotiation.
My estimate of cost for the work is $13,000.
You may contact me at 217/566-3725 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

PS I have fuxed you a copy of this letter to meet the December 5 deadline. A hard copy is in

605/692-6281
The City Council is interested in obtaining a proposal and estimate for your assistance with
the Final Environmental Impact Statement. I have provided an outline of the City's needs
at this time. Based on this outline, would you please provide an estimate of the cost of
assistance? As you can see, I have broken the work into three sections, not knowing the
extent of work needed at this time.
The first section is a review of the FEIS with special attention to the mitigation plan and its
effectiveness on the negative impacts. This review would be the beginning of formulating
an alternative plan, if necessary. I would anticipate a written report that could be
provided to the Council prior to you being available at a Council meeting over the
telephone.
The second section would be the provision of an alternate mitigation plan, if necessary.
This plan also could be provided to the Council prior to a meeting in which you would be
available over the telephone.
The third section is the use of the Proposed Plan in negotiating a Community Partnership
Agreement with the DM&E. This would involve travel to Brookings, a meeting with the
Council, Negotiations, and a final meeting with the Council.
I have not provided you with a copy of the EIS as I do not have a hard copy yet. It is
available over the Internet at the STB website and I think you could base an estimate of
costs by reviewing it there. I will forward you a copy as soon as possible. I hope to have
an estimate from you prior to December 5t11.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions or comments. Thank you.
Sincerely,

Appendix A-Official Salary Schedule
The new City of Brookings Pay Plan will be implemented on December 31,
2001 with new pay rates assigned January 1. 2002. Using the new 2001 Pay
Plan, employees will be placed on the step in their new assigned pay range
that is above their current salary. For example, if an employee is currently at
Step Fin the 2001 salary schedule, and the closest step in the new range
above the current salary is at Step C, the employee would be placed at Step
C in the new range. If the 2001 wage rate of a position is in excess of the new
assigned grade, the wage of the employee within the position will be frozen
until that rate falls within the new assigned pay grade as adjusted in
accordance with Article 69.
If an employee was at Step Fin the 2001 Salary Schedule and, when placed
in the new Pay Plan schedule, the employee is not at Step F. movement
through the steps in the assigned grade will occur on January 1 ''of each year
beginning in 2003.
If an employee was not at Step F in the 2001 Salary Schedule, and not placed
at Step F in the new Pay Plan, movement through the steps will occur on their
anniversary date as per normal pay progression.

The City Council of the City of Brookings
Report of the City Manager-December 6, 2001
Major Topics
1. DM&E. Bernie Morris' estimate is on the agenda.
2. Youth Council. The last meeting was cancelled because of weather at this time we plan
on a meeting on December 13.
Possible/Pending Council Action
1. Bunker Gear. I plan to advertise for bids so that they can be opened on the 1 ih for
your action on the 17tl'. I will offer some methods of payment at that meeting.
2. Labor Negotiations. We have a session scheduled for Monday the 1oth.
3. Taxi Subsidy. I have enclosed information on the taxi service. Other cities do a variety
of things to support transportation, but typically in the area of public transit or a taxi
service. This will be on the December 17, 2001 agenda.
4. Health Insurance. New rates will be recommended at the Council Meeting on the 1 ih.
I anticipate the cost to be less than budgeted.
5. 2002 Budget Amendment. The Council approved the budget with an increase in the
liquor override that would have raised $24,500. $15,000 of this was committed to use in
the general fund. The Council then disapproved the ordinance that would have increased
the override. It was suggested that a budget amendment be brought to the Council before
the beginning of the year. I suggest that this not be done at least until labor negotiations
are completed and the health insurance rates are established. These are two major costs
that I would like to know prior to making any adjustments. As with any budget, as the
year progresses revenues and expenditures are monitored and adjustments are made. I may
not see a need for any Council adjustments until later in the year.
6. Annual Audit. I received the completed audit report this week. It is enclosed for your
review. I plan to have Dick Ellis present at the Council meeting on December 17, 2001 to
answer any questions.
Projects
1. Outcomes. Even though you have not completed the Outcomes I am moving forward
with the projects such as an analysis of the Enterprise Funds, Advisory Committee reports
for review by Council, Personnel Policy review, and others. I would like to schedule
another session for Outcomes.
2. Paperless Agenda and Package. We are nearing the time to implement the paperless
Council package for the public and the Council. There are real benefits to the paperless
format. The public will be able to view the agenda supporting documents on the Internet.
We will be able to make the package available to you over the city's website in a secure
fashion, e-mail it, or provide it on a disk. We will also be able to project the supporting
documents on a screen at the Council meeting so that the public and Council can view the
supporting information. Lastly, if you desire to pick and choose which documents you
want to print form the file you could.
At this time I am wondering about the value oflaptops for Council members. Would
Council members really go paperless by bringing a laptop to the meeting and viewing it
instead of paper? Or, will we reach the maximum benefit to everyone by having the
package in electronic format for now?
Other
Personnel
I. Finance Manager. The process of interviewing seven finalists was conducted on
Friday, November 30 and Tuesday, December 4, 200 I. The process included 1h hour with
the finance staff, \12 hour with representatives of the management team, and 1 hour with the
Human Resources Director and myself. (Typically, I would have had a person from
outside the organization assist in the interviews, but my choices became unavailable). The
final choice was clear to everyone-Rita Thompson of Detroit Lakes, MN. She was the
Becker County Treasurer -small world. Anyway, I am familiar with her work and
professionalism. She will be an excellent addition to the team. The salary change
approved by the Council was necessary and appreciated. The average last salary of the
three top choices was over $50,000.
