Minutes of the annual meeting of the Common Council of the City of Rochester, Minnesota
held in the Council Chambers, in the City Hall in said City on April 4, 1960.
The invocation was given by Rev. Abner S. Haugen, pastor of the Zumbro Lutheran Church.
President Tingley called.the meeting to order at 2:00 o'clock P. M. the following members
being present: President.Tingley, Aldermen Brooks, Morris, Stadler, Wilkus and Wilson. Absent:
Gifford.
President Tingley then gan the following, address:
"Members of the Council, Guests, Ladies & Gentlemen:
I came here today expecting to do some .talking and I assume many of you came
here to do some listening. Now, if you get thru listening before I get thru talking,
please raise your hand and I'll cut it short.
Your City Council is composed -of seven Rochester citizens, tax -payers, neighbors
of yours. These men have volunteered their..services for the period of time for which
you .have elected them. Six of these aldermen are elected from various segments of
the City. One is selected from the entire City, who serves as President of the
Council.
As President of the Council, I have one vote, the same as each and every ward
alderman. No more -no less.
By majority vote youuhave selected these men to represent and serve you as their
concience dictates.- Your helpful suggestions and constructive criticisms I'm sure
will be welcomed and a great help in their serving you and building an even greater
Rochester.
It is my,belief, the caliber and integrity of the members of this Council to be
exceptionally high,.and I ask your -sincere backing and cooperation. These citizens
will give much of their time in serving you and the city.- without your help and
cooperation -'their job will be quite difficult and their efforts of little value.
At this time I would.like you to meet your new Alderman:
Alderman Stanley J. Brooks, First Ward
Alderman Dr. -Ray Gifford, Jr. Second Ward
Alderman Laurence B. Stadler Fourth Ward
Alderman James R. Wilson Third Ward
,Also may I present those two veterans of many long hours and hectic sessions,
Alderman Stanley Morris Fifth Ward
Alderman Frank J. Wilkus Sixth Ward
It is my hope that this council will become more and more, the policy making -
legislative body of our city government as was intended by our charter, leaving
the executive -branch to the Mayor and many details to our regularly appointed
department heads. It is my belief that our council should be the policy making,
legislative part of our city government and should not be saddled with all the
detail of Tuning a twenty million dollar corporation. However, policies should
be set up and results demanded from the various.department heads. Making sure the
spirit of those policies are followed as well as the letter.
As I forsee the future,..this council should be 'a busy group, as there will be
many problems to be faced and solved. Time does not permit me to go into these
things to any great extent but I might mention two problems which I believe merits
consideration.
Automobile parking is of major importance to the Rochester Business man. Without
adequate convenient parking for the customer the businessman is without doubt fighting
for existence under a terrific hanidicap . Rochester has been operating and main-
taining parking for citizens and outside shoppers in the -downtown area. It is one
of very few cities thruout the United States who do this, our facilities have some-
what fallen behind the demand for parking space, creating parking problems. While
parking problems in one sense are undesirable, on the other hand cities without
parking problems usually are without sufficient business to constitute a progressive
city. But so long as the City is in the automobile parking business, and selling
space at a rate actually below cost, outside capital could not be expected to invest
in proper facilities in competition with the City. A good long look might well be
made at the possibilities of us getting out of the automobile parking business if
some leasing agreement of our present facilities could be worked out in addition to
definite assurance of extended facilities to meet our needs thru private capital.
The parking and traffic committee might well give this some thought.
In our efforts to build a'greater Rochester, planning is not only desirable but an
absolute necessity. Rochester has already spent considerable money in the field of
future planning. Much o� it was a sound investment in the future, and much of it
was in my opinion too futuristic to be of much value. Immddiate needs for this decade
are far more important to us than what might take place,100 years hence. Out Planning
Board has had many 'changes during -its existence. The present membership consists
of well meaning citizens of unimpeachable integrity, who have a definite interest
in our cities welfare. They have and are giving much time to our interests and
deserve the thanks and support of one and all., it is my.understanding that all items

in tAe so-called comprehensive plan does not have unanamious support in the Commission.
I,b lfeve, we as a City would be quite unwise not to make use of the things that are good
antdapply to,our Cfty and our particular needs. I sincerely hope the Planning Commission
will give careful study of these plans, applying common sense standaxk as well as expert
opinions in -their recommendations to this council. In any case, lets not just file it to
gather dust with the Grif-fenhagen and other reports already somewhat out of date.
.And now befora there-i's a show of hands, indicating many of you have reached the end
of. yow listening, I have just a personal word to `the Members of this Council.
A, better than anyone else, know my shortcomings and Railings, and they are many.
It has been my pleasure to serve on this body thru the administrations of three differ-
ent Mayors and eighteen different Aldermen.
If this group runs true to form, there will be, on occasion, differences of opinionr
I.believe this -to be a healthy condition. It denotes, research, information and thinking.
-It is my hope that careful consideration will be given any and all items in question,
evaluating the opinion of.others and respecting their rights to thek opinion. If we will
endeavor to do this.I'm sure -better legislation will result for our city. To you members
of the Common Council, I pledge my endeavor to be fair, impartial, and wherever possible
helpful." ,

Rochester, Minnesota Subject: Rochester Municipal -Airport
Dear Mr. Swenson Our Contract No. 360 - Providing State Aid
in Connection With the Paving Project.
The project was set upon the basis of a total cost of $930,000, of which.$310,000
was encumbered as the state's share of the costa The final estimates Vh ich are
submitted indicate that the actual state share of costs will be $298,300. It'thus
appears evident that this contract could -be reduced by $11,700, so that the decrease
could be encumbered on new work to be accomplished at the Rochester Airport.
To accomplish this, it is necessary that Contract 360 be amended as indicated in
the attached Amendment. The Amendment should be acted upon by the municipality.
The Resolution approving the action should also authorize and direct the Mayor to
execute the agreement with the state. Ten copies should be returned to this office
with copies of the Resolution of the City Council relative to said amendment.
It is my understanding that you contemplated proceedings with the nonfederal work.
You are reminded that plans and specifications should be submitted W this office
for approval prior to calling for bids.
Yours very truly,

Block No. Two (2) of Kutzky's First Addition, to the town, .now City of Rochester,
Olmsted County, Minnesota. The premises are commonly known as 1211 First Street

A letter from the Mayo Association submitting application for approval of a plat and a petitic
for the change of zoning of Homestead Village Addition was read and upon motion by Stadler, second
by Brooks the same was referred to the City Planning and Zoning Commission.
The recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission regarding the reconsideration of
the preliminary plat of Mill Reservation Sub -Division (formerly Thompson's Subdivision) was read.
Upon motion by Brooks, second by Morris, the recommendation was referred to the Planning and Zoning
Committee.
The following recommendation of the City Planning & Zoning Commission was read:
"The Planning and Zoning Commission at a special meeting held March 22, 1960 reviewed
the revised preliminary plat of Rubow's Addition and we find that the p h t is the same
as was approved on April 20, 1959 with the exception that a temporary turn -around will
be provided on the Grindlay Property at this time.- At such time as 16th St. N.W. is
extended to the west to the tope of the hill, the turn around can then be abandoned by
the public. The Krogstad house will have to be moved to comply with the provisions
of the Zoning Ordinance. We recommend that this revised plat dated March 1960 be
granted preliminary approval with the provision that the final plat�be•accompanied
by a satisfactory agreement from Dr. Grindlay for the use of part of his land for
the,temporary turn around and that the Krogstad-house is moved to comply -with the
provisions of Ordinance No. 558 (Zoning Ordinance).
Upon motion by Wilkus, second -by Morris, the recommendation was accepted. All voted in favor t
of.
The following recommendation of the City Planning & Zoning Commission was read:
"The Planning and Zoning Commission at a special meeting held March 22, 1960 reviewed
the proposal to sell Lots 7 & 8 Block 15 Cummings Addition (City Owned Property) and
-we find that:
(1) The lots lie along the south bank of Cascade Creek and east of 8th Ave.
_ N.W. One lot is mostly in Cascade Creek.
(2). The properties are presently vacant.
(3) No city -department is currently charged with maintaining these lots and
keeping them in a presentable condition.
(4) These lots could prove to be an asset to the community in years to come for
possible flood -control projects, maintainence of creek banks, and a park area.
We therefore recommend that these lots should not be sold by the City of Rochester, as
proposed, but retained for the purposes as stated in Item No. 4 above. We futther•feel
that one of the City Departments, probably the Park Department, should be given the
responsibilty-of maintaining these lands in a presentable condition."
Upon motion by Morris, second by Wilson the recommendation was accepted and the Park Department
be notified that they are responsible -to keep these lots up. All voted in favor thereof.
Alderman Stadler was excused•at�5:00 P. M.

The City has agreed to construct a metal hangar type building on Area A. for the use of Gopher, together
with grading and outside mechanical, electrical and utility installations required to develop the
hangar and site as a fixed base operator area. Gopher has agreed to construct a second hangar thereon
and to lease the site and buildings for a term of twenty years, commencing whtn the leased premises
are substantially -completed and ready for occupancy, or thirty days before the new airport is oepen to
public use, whichever is later. As to Area B, the lessors reserve the right to terminate the lease,
upon payment of certain agreed portions of the cost of improvements made by Gopher in the event of
termination before ten years. As rent for the land, Gopher has agreed to pay for Area A the sum of
$5,300 per year, of which the sum of $2,650 annually is to be paid by the City, under agreement -i th
the Airport Company; and for Area B the sum of $1,484 per year, all of which -is to be paid to the City.
As rent for the building and improvements to be made by the City on the leased premises, Gopher has
agreed to pay annually that sum of money required to pay in twenty equal annual installments the entire
cost of such building, and improvements, with interest thereon computed at a rate of 27. per annum higher
than the average annual net interest rate at which the bonds financing the project are sold by the City.
6. The total cost of the building and all improvements to be constructed by the City and leased
to Gopher Aviation, Inc., inaccordance with the approved plans and specifications, including the
construction cost under contracts heretofore advertised and awarded and secured by performance bonds
in the manner required by law, and the cost of planting, engineering, supervisory and all other services
necessary for the completion of said building and improvements, is estimated to be $375,000, which
sum is to be raised by the issuance of the bonds herein authorized and, upon delivery of said bonds,
shall be credited to a separate and special construction account on the City's books and records and used
for no other purpose. Of said cost, the sum of $325,000 is estimated to represent the cost of the I •
building and closely related improvements covered by building rental rather than ground rental, as
• Record of Official Proceedings of the Common .Council
of the City of Rochester, Minn., April 4, 1960
described in paragraph 5 (c). The average annual net interest cost to the City on the bonds herein
authorized is approximately 3.47% per annum. The annual amount required to amortize $325,000 over
i twanyy years at 5.45% per annum is approximately and not less than $26,600. This amount plus additional
ground rentals.payable to the City under said lease will assure total rentals of $30,734 annually. In �I
addition to said rentals the City will lease adjoining hangar strips to individuals upon terms esti-
mated to produce additional revenues of not less than $2,600 annually, and Gopher Aviation, Inc. is
i required under said agreement to pay additional rentals for the land and buildings, commencing January !j
1, 1970, in the amount of 27. of its applicable gross receipts in excess of $1,000,000 in each year. All j
rentals and other income described in this paragraph 6, from time to time received by the City from the
leasing or operation of said hangar structure and its appurtenant facilities, have been and arehereby
pledged and appropriated for the payment of the bonds herein authorized and interest thereon. The i
aggregate of said rentals and income is estimated to be sufficient to produce sums not less than 5%
i in excess of the annual amounts of principal and interest to become due on said bonds. I
7. There is hereby created and shall be maintained by the City Treasurer on the official
books and records of the City, within the Sinking Fund provided by the City Charter, a separate and
special account to be designated as the "Municipal Airport Bond Account", the moneys in which shall.
�� be used solely for the payment of the principal of and interest on the bonds herein described, and on
• 1 any additional general obligation,Municipal Airport Bonds hereafter issued under the authority cited
I; in paragraphl, and directed by the Common Council to be paid from such account. If at any time the
I' moneys is said account should be insufficient to pay all principal and interest due on such bonds,
the City Treasurer shall nevertheless pay the same from any moneys on hand in other funds of the City
j and available for such purpose, and the moneys so used shall be resotred to the appropriate funds
j from the moneys next received by the City from the rentals and income of said leased premises, which j
