PETITIONS, REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS a.

REPORT BY BAKER-TILLY ON CITY’S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2013, AND REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROLS.

Renee Meinholz of Baker Tilly addressed the Council at this time. Ms. Meinholz said the Audit went well again this year. There is a section in the audit that addresses the Historical Society not being included in the audit, however, that is for the funds which are under the control of the Historical Society, not the funds of the City. The City-funded accounts were included in the audit. Ms. Meinholz said the City received a clean opinion on the audit, which is the highest form of assurance they can give. Ms. Meinholz said the City uses four categories for detailing general fund balances, including: the non-spendable category, which has approximately $2.5 million (these funds include prepayments, inventory and long-term receivables which include the advances to the T.I.F. Districts); restricted funds are made up of the final Library project funds which have not yet been transferred into a separate account; assigned designated fund balance is approximately $888,000 (these are non-lapsing accounts as well as payment in lieu of tax due from the Utility), and the unassigned fund is approximately $795,000, which is the net working capital. One ratio they look at is the unassigned fund balance to the annual budget, and when you do that calculation it ends up being about 8.6%. Rating agencies typically like to see about two months of expenditures unassigned, which would be 16.7%, but some of the cause is the internal funds of the T.I.F. Districts. The City typically likes between 8-20%, so we are within that. Cm. Hartwick asked when the 8-20% policy was enacted, to which the Acting City Manager indicated he believed it was two years ago. Ms. Meinholz indicated the City’s fund balance increased approximately $799,000 from last year. The debt ratio capacity is the ratio of the general obligation debt outstanding compared to the City’s legal capacity to borrow, which is 5% of the City’s equalized value. The City is at 39% of the legal debt limit, which is at the lower end of Wisconsin municipalities. This percentage has stayed relatively stable over the past five years. Ms. Meinholz also reviewed the analysis of the City’s debt service with the Council. For 2013, the City is close to 14%, which is in line with what the bond rating agencies recommend. The next items reviewed were the general and debt service fund revenues and general and debt service fund expenditures. There was a spike in 2010 in these areas due to the donations and expenses for the Library project. The expenditures have been fairly constant. Ms. Meinholz then reviewed the Report on Internal Control with the Council. The weaknesses listed in the Report are very typical of cities the same size as Fort Atkinson. These weaknesses are looked at by staff to see if there are things that can be done to improve the situation. Many of the items are hard to get rid of unless more staff is hired. Pres. Schultz asked if typically other municipalities

the size of Fort Atkinson meet the requirements, to which Ms. Meinholz indicated they do not. Cm. Kotz asked if there was another City we would look at as a sample as to how we could meet the requirements, to which Ms. Meinholz said she doesn’t have any clients that don’t have the same types of issues; Fort Atkinson has fewer issues than a lot of her clients. Cm. Hartwick asked if having a Mayor form of government would make a difference in this issue, and Ms. Meinholz said it would not. Cwmn. LaMuro said the only way to possibly address this would be to have one specific person being a check person or have an accounting student intern controller. Ms. Meinholz said this would mean extra training as well. Cm. Kotz asked Ms. Meinholz to review the missed statements referred to in her report. This was for the reclassification for some older special assessments that remained on file. The matter has been corrected, but they were required to list them. Cm. Kotz also asked what the $304,000 transfer was for, to which Ms. Meinholz said it was the transfer from the Water Utility to the City for the payment in lieu of taxes. Cm. Lescohier, seconded by Cm. Kotz, moved to accept and file the report by Baker Tilly on the City’s Financial Statements as of December 31, 2013, and report on internal controls. The motion carried on a voice vote. b.

REQUEST TO HOLD HALF MARATHON ON JUNE 21, 2014 AND FOR VARIOUS NO PARKING AREAS AND STREET CLOSURES. The Acting City Manager said this is an annual request, and has been reviewed by the Police Department. The route will be the same as last year. There have been no issues with the event in the past. Cwmn. LaMuro, seconded by Cm. Hartwick, moved to approve the request to hold Half Marathon on June 21, 2014 and for various no parking areas and street closures. The motion carried on a voice vote.

c.

REQUEST BY MICRO-LIGHT FLYERS TO HOLD LONGEST DAY FLY-IN AT AIRPORT ON JUNE 20 AND 21, 2014. The Acting City Manager said this is also an annual request. The group does have insurance for the event. There have not been any problems with the event in the past. Cm. Kotz, seconded by Cwmn. LaMuro, moved to approve the request by MicroLight Flyers to hold Longest Day Fly-In at the Airport on June 20 and 21, 2014. The motion carried on a voice vote.

RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES a.

RECOMMENDATION FROM ORDINANCE COMMITTEE TO APPROVE MOBILE MERCHANTS ORDINANCE. The proposed Ordinance was displayed on the overhead projector at this time. Jim Goyer, owner of Ace Hardware on Madison Avenue, said we need to remember the matter being discussed is a mobile merchants ordinance, which does not pertain only to food trucks. He said it could be people selling jewelry, flowers, or even rummage sale items. If we allow mobile merchants on City streets and parking lots, it opens it up to a lot of things. His solution would be to let these merchants operate on private property, thereby allowing those property owners to govern what is being sold. Erin Housley had also signed up for public comment, but declined to address the Council as she indicated Mr. Goyer had touched on all her concerns. Pres. Schultz said he is proposing that the mobile merchants be allowed to locate in the City parking lot at the intersection of South Main and South Third Streets. He said the lot is underutilized. He presented a survey of occupancy for this lot. This would also address the concern of jaywalking and aesthetics on the bridge. It was indicated by the City Attorney that this is the second reading of the proposed Ordinance, and the Ordinance may be amended if desired. Cm. Hartwick said he had asked the City Electrician to look into the possibility of getting electrical services for the vendors at the parking lot suggested by Pres. Schultz. He said this would also eliminate the noise issue. He was, however, concerned about the fairness issue. The Acting City Manager said before staff would be looking at a cost estimate for providing the electricity to the vendors at the suggested location, he wanted to make sure that location was where the Council wanted the vendors to go. There will be an initial outlay expense involved with providing electricity, as well as some liability. The Acting City Manager was concerned about what would happen if there were a power outage on weekends or holidays; would they have to call out the City Electrician. This would be an extra expense to the City. There will also be an expense to purchase meters and to do meter readings, billings and collection. Cwmn. LaMuro asked if the electrical meters could be multi-use, such as for outlets for electric car charging stations. The Building Inspector said it could be done, but it would require additional equipment. Cwmn. LaMuro said she had been approached by someone indicating they had guests from out of town and that they were excited to go to the merchants. She

said we do encourage all types of businesses, and we do allow outdoor seating at a number of venues downtown, which impedes onto the sidewalk. Cwmn. LaMuro indicated she has done a lot of research on this matter, and has found that Whitewater charges significantly less than what we are proposing; Watertown doesn’t charge anything; and Jefferson’s charge is approved by their Common Council (no set rate). She said going higher with our fee would perhaps push the merchants out of town. She asked Pres. Schultz why in his proposal he chose to limit the amount of merchants to five, to which Pres. Schultz said it is totally arbitrary, he felt there should be a limit. Pres. Schultz said he had not included the providing of electricity in his proposal for the merchants to locate in the lot at the corner of South Main and South Third Streets because of the matters addressed earlier by the Acting City Manager. He thought it could possibly be investigated at a later time. Cm. Hartwick asked if the fee had been reviewed, to which the Acting City Manager said staff was looking to the Council to suggest a fair fee. The fee was arrived at by doing comparison with other communities, as well as using a cost per square foot comparison using the value provided by the Assessor and comparing it to the estimated size of the vehicles and it came to a little over $500. He said using the assessed value approach is hard to do because the vehicles depreciate in value, whereas real estate typically increases in value. Cm. Hartwick pointed out that a number of concerns were received from existing restaurant owners that the proposed fee is not equitable. Pres. Schultz said he feels $500 per year is a pretty healthy chunk of cash, to which Cm. Hartwick said he disagreed. The Acting City Manager said a fee needs to be arrived at that can be justified. Cwmn. LaMuro said Whitewater’s fee for non-property owners is $5/day, $20/week, $50/month, or $200/year. Cm. Hartwick said he is not looking at what other cities are doing; he is looking at what is fair for our City. Cm. Lescohier said he doesn’t want the Council to forget what started this whole process; it came from the brick and mortar businesses that felt they were competing on an unlevel playing field with the food trucks. This Ordinance has been an attempt to require the food trucks to put some skin in the game, which would be through a fee structure, an appropriate place to operate, to control the noise, and a safer place to operate. He said one of the trucks has already found a location on private property. It feels like we are going out of our way to accommodate one truck. We need an ordinance that works with the food trucks, but is also mindful of our local restaurants, sandwich shops and pubs that help make up the back bone of our tax base. He said the appropriate place for food trucks to operate is on private property. There are ample spots in visible places to accommodate food trucks in town.

Cm. Lescohier said he is not in favor of Pres. Schultz’s suggested location, as moving the food trucks down a block or two will not alleviate the problem; the municipal lots were not created to accommodate food trucks. He said the lot at the corner of South Main and South Third could be utilized more if there were a business to locate in the former Ravenwood building. A concentrated space for up to five food trucks would cause a greater amount of noise. He agreed with Mr. Goyer in how to define a mobile merchant, that private property owners should be allowed to decide what would be appropriate to be peddled from their property, be it food or trinkets. Cm. Hartwick agreed that he had a concern with the amplification of the sounds of the generators. He went to the American Legion as well as the bike trail, and the generator could be heard in both locations. Cm. Hartwick said pushing the food trucks to be located on private property may push them a little more to find a brick and mortar building for their business. Cwmn. LaMuro moved to accept the Ordinance with the amendments suggested by Pres. Schultz. The motion died for a lack of a second. Cwmn. LaMuro asked if there would still need to be an Ordinance if the food trucks were required to locate on private property. The Acting City Manager indicated there would, as there are a number of items that would still regulate noise, hours of operation and other items. Mobile operations do not fall under the existing zoning code. Cm. Lescohier, seconded by Cm. Hartwick, moved to designate that mobile merchants be allowed to operate on private property only and to direct staff to make the changes to the Ordinance. The City Attorney asked Cm. Lescohier if his motion was just to amend where business can be operated. Cm. Lescohier said that was his intention. Pres. Schultz said the Council operates under Roberts Rules of Order, and according to those Orders, this is a motion to reconsider because this motion was voted down at a previous meeting. His understanding is that the motion has to come from someone that voted against the motion. The City Attorney questioned if this was a motion for reconsideration. Cm. Lescohier said this needs to go to staff at least to work on the language; whether it goes back to the Ordinance Committee or staff takes care of it and brings it back to the Council, it doesn’t make any difference. Pres. Schultz said we are basically asking staff to change the language that goes into the Ordinance. Cm. Hartwick said if there was a motion made to send the matter back to the Ordinance Committee, that could be done. Pres. Schultz agreed, as it was a whole different motion. Cm. Lescohier and Cm. Hartwick rescinded the original motion.

Cm. Lescohier, seconded by Cm. Hartwick, moved to send the Ordinance back to the Ordinance Committee with the direction to have staff redraft the Ordinance that would limit mobile merchants to private property. On call of the roll, the motion carried on a 3-2 vote, with Cwmn. LaMuro and Pres. Schultz voting opposed. Cm. Lescohier said these food trucks are a nice option, and there is nothing that would prevent them from continuing to operate or flourish in our community if they are operating in a private or public parking lot. There are a lot of good visible options for them to go to. Cm. Hartwick said his idea for sending it back to the Committee is to look at whether it be private or public property, and to look at the equity of these and trying to find a mechanism to find a way for it to be equitable. 8.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS a.

RECOMMENDATION FROM LICENSE COMMITTEE TO APPROVE REQUEST FROM PADDY COUGHLIN’S IRISH PUB FOR A PREMISE DESCRIPTION CHANGE TO ADD OUTDOOR SEATING FOR THE CURRENT PERIOD ENDING JUNE 30, 2014. The Acting City Manager indicated the request as submitted meets all Ordinance requirements pertaining to the service of alcohol beverages in an outdoor area. The area will be delineated by barricades and will maintain a five-foot unobstructed sidewalk space. The required hours of operation will also be met. It was indicated this will be seasonal use only and the fencing will be removed during the winter months. A $1,000,000 liability insurance policy will also be provided, listing the City as an additional insured. Erin Housley said the outdoor seating area will not have food service, and the patrons will be facing the street. There will be an awning installed, and the project will be constructed in such a way as to match the existing front façade of the building. Ms. Housley also indicated there will be no smoking allowed in this area. Brandon Housley indicated their fencing will be mounted into the sidewalk.

Cm. Kotz, seconded by Cm. Lescohier, moved to approve the recommendation from the License Committee to approve the request from Paddy Coughlin’s Irish Pub for a premise description change to add outdoor seating for the current period ending June 30, 2014. The motion carried on a voice vote. 10.

NEW BUSINESS a.

REVIEW AND APPROVE BID FOR CURB, GUTTER AND SIDEWALK PROJECTS IN CONJUNCTION WITH STREET PROGRAM. The following bid was received for curb, gutter and sidewalk projects in conjunction with the street program: J.W. Schultz Construction, Inc.

$53,123

The City Engineer said the curb, gutter and sidewalk projects that are going to be replaced in conjunction with the street program were originally going to be done by the Department of Public Works’ crews. However, since that Department is short-staffed and have other jobs required to be completed, it was decided it would be best to bid out the project. Four local contractors were notified of this project, as well as placing an ad in the paper. Cm. Hartwick asked if it would be possible to hire additional short-term employees and keep the work with the Department of Public Works. The City Engineer said the Street Program budget is separate from the Public Works budgets, so that would require a transfer of funds. Cm. Lescohier, seconded by Cm. Kotz, moved to approve the bid from J.W. Schultz Construction, Inc. for curb, gutter and sidewalk projects in conjunction with the street program at a cost not to exceed $53,123. On call of the roll, the motion carried unanimously. b.

REVIEW REQUEST TO CREATE TAX INCREMENTAL FINANCING DISTRICT AT 311 WILSON AVENUE. The Acting City Manager said Don Bladorn of 1246 Janette Street purchased the former On Cor Frozen Foods (Redi-Serv) property located at 311 Wilson Avenue. He is now requesting the City create a TIF District to fund the demolition of the facility. The demolition is estimated to cost $75,000. He said Mr. Bladorn has indicated he would like to build three single-family houses or townhouses on the property after demolition over the next several years. He estimated a minimum of $600,000 of taxable property when fully completed. The property is currently assessed at $169,400. The Acting City Manager indicated he had contacted the City’s financial advisor to put together a TIF proforma. That resulted in a cost recovery period of

approximately 12 years. Mr. Bladorn has indicated he would not be willing to do a “pay as you go” TIF District. He would like the City to up-front the expenses. The Acting City Manager informed Mr. Bladorn that the City is not in a financial position to take on the risk of directly incurring the expense of demolishing the facility and then waiting for an indefinite period of time to be reimbursed through increment on planned development. Mr. Bladorn’s proposal to the City was stated in an email from him as follows: “That the City of Fort Atkinson institute a TIF district for the depressed property at 311 Wilson Ave and provide $75,000 in funds for the demolition of the existing factory and parking lot. In return, Statcert Inc (owner of 311 Wilson Ave property) agrees to build (or insure that a third party or parties build) a minimum of $600,000 of taxable residential property on the existing 311 Wilson Ave property and that construction be completed within six years of receipt of the demolition funds. Don Bladorn, 1246 Janette Street, then addressed the Council indicating he had previously requested the City assist with special assessing area property owners for the demolition of 311 Wilson Avenue. The only real use of the building in its present state would be for cold storage. The neighbors and himself would prefer the building be demolished. Mr. Bladorn said he paid $150,000 for the property and with the price of the demolition, it would push his cost up to $225,000 for a property that would have an estimated value of $50,000 - $80,000. It doesn’t make economic sense for him to do the demolition, but it does make economic sense for the City to assist with the demolition of the building in order to clean up an eye sore in the neighborhood. Mr. Bladorn said he had notified property owners within a two block radius to seek assistance in the demolition costs as well. Cm. Hartwick asked how he came up with the two block radius, to which Mr. Bladorn said those are the people most directly impacted by the eye sore as they have to continually drive by the property. He said he had received commitments of approximately $12,000 from the neighboring property owners. Cwmn. LaMuro asked Mr. Bladorn why he purchased the property. He said because it was the right thing to do to get rid of the eye sore in the neighborhood. He bought it to have it demolished and turn it into residential property, which is what is called for in the City’s long-range plan. Cm. Hartwick asked Mr. Bladorn why he wasn’t interested in the “pay as you go” proposal, to which he said at his age, he did not want to tie up his funds. Mr. Bladorn said he has heard from one neighbor that he may be interested in purchasing a portion of the property. He said his preference is to demolish the building and put in housing units. Mr. Bladorn said another alternative would be to give the property to a religious organization.

Tom Swetland, 1232 Janette Street, then addressed the Council. Mr. Swetland indicated he is in favor of Mr. Bladorn’s request. His rationale is that the property is blighted. There was a commercial baking operation looking into purchasing the property, but there was such a great amount of capital expenditure needed that it broke the deal. Mr. Swetland said that less than a year ago, the Planning Commission, as is outlined in future planning that this become residential property, proposed to the City Council to consider the cheesecake company purchasing this property with a number of conditions. One important condition was that in five years, there would be a sunset clause that would be put in place; the business would cease to exist; the building would be demolished; and it would be turned into residential. He said that sets a precedent on what should take place with it now. Mr. Swetland said we should also remember that part of the proposal from the City to the commercial baking operation was the fact that at the end of five years, that 2.5 acres of which the purchase price for the property was $160,000, would be traded even for Lot 10 in the Klement Business Park for $320,000. That sets a precedent relative to moving forward to get the five year sunset clause and get them to the “promise land” of where they want to be. Mr. Swetland said the proposed commercial baking operation did not have the financing to go forward with their project. They also found more expenses to improve the building. Mr. Swetland reiterated that the Planning Commission indicated their desire for this to become residential. Pres. Schultz asked Mr. Swetland what he meant by his comment that “the work needed on the building, killed the deal”. He said it was the amount of capital work needed for the cheesecake factory to bring the building up to Code. Pres. Schultz said he thought what killed the deal was that the Council did not give them the variance to cook there. Mr. Bladorn said he thought they were going to purchase the building even if they couldn’t cook there, but they couldn’t get the financing. Cwmn. LaMuro said she felt it would be setting a bad precedent for community members to recommend where we put a TIF District; that’s not appropriate. The City needs to make that assessment on their own. Pres. Schultz said he is concerned with a TIF District being created and the City paying for the demolition with the possibility of the improvements not being made on the property, then the taxpayers end up holding the bag. Mr. Bladorn indicated he would be willing to sign a legally binding document stating he would be putting up $600,000 worth of improvements. The Acting City Manager said there would certainly be a Developer’s Agreement for this project, but sometimes they are not followed and it falls through, leaving

the City to pay for what’s left. Mr. Bladorn suggested it could be part of the Developer’s Agreement that if it is not followed, would it be possible that the City could become owners after that. The City Attorney said that would probably require a mortgage or other documentation, and he wondered if the City really wants to own that property, and wants to get into that business. Cm. Hartwick applauded Mr. Bladorn for his willingness to improve the neighborhood, but the City has no money to take on this project at this time. Cm. Lescohier said it is in the City’s long-term plan to get this to a zoning designation consistent with the neighborhood. However, the City does not have the appetite for the risk associated with the project. Cm. Hartwick, seconded by Cwmn. LaMuro, moved to reject the request to create a tax incremental financing district at 311 Wilson Avenue. The motion carried on a voice vote. 11.
