For the past three years the Rochester Housing and Revelopment Authority has been engaged in formulating the Rochester Downtown Plan. During this period studies and surveys have been conducted; over a quarter million dollars have;.been expended and the time and effort of many citizens has been spent to insure that the best solution to the downtown problem would be presented. Now that the Plan has been finalized and a public hearing has been scheduled, for the benefit of the entire citizenry, it is our considered opinion that the public hearing should be held in a facility sufficiently large to accommodate all the citizens who wish to attend. Such a place could be the Mayo Civic Auditorium or theatre. It is our recommendation that the agenda for the hearing be arranged so that the Housing and Redevelopment Authority make a presentation of the Plan; that the TCD Committee make a presentation of their study; then an open forum be held for those persons in attendance who wish to be heard, thereby -giving your body as well as those in attendance an oppor- tunity to monitor a chronological sequence which has led to the final recommendation of the Plan. We further recommend that maximum publicity be given the public hearing in order to insure the greatest attendance possible. Respectfully, s/ Dennis R. Peterson Dennis R. Peterson Chairman" Upon inquiry, the Mayo Civic Auditorium Theatre section was found to be available for 7.:30 o'clock P.M. on January 13, 1969, and due publicity was requested for the hearing scheduled on such date for Downtown Rochester Redevelopment Area Project Number Minnesota R-41, that persons interested could go directly to the Mayo Civic Auditorium.

M";, T. M. McDonnell, President of the Park and Recreation Board, presented concern over the intrusion on any park land with the establishment of a downtown one-way street system. He objected to not being notified of.the hearing in September relative to the,one-way street plan, and demanded.that the Board be asked to "sit in" on any decisions involving park property. Mr. Roy Watson, rqpresenting both the American Legion's Soldiers Field Committee and his interest as Manager of the Kahler Motel, opposed the street going through park area, encroaching on picnic area. Secondly, he indicated that onenthoroughfare would eliminate 75% access to the Kahler Hotel. They need access to the hotel and access to the ramp. He felt that a major thoroughfare also should not be made between the two clinic buildings. Mr. Fred Hanna, representing the YWCA & YMCA, appeared relative to the 1-way south on 1st Avenue S.W. They do not object to the 1-way south on 1st Avenue, but are con- cerned about whether traffic going north would be able to do so on Broadway where 1st Avenue would intersect Broadway. If traffic could only go south on Broadway it would cause diffi- culty for patrons leaving the YWCA and YMCA. Mr. Armstrong said that many such problems have been discussed, including a proposal to make a left off 1st Avenue to go north.

Hermann, Zone Manager of Peoples Natural Gas, Division of Northern Natural Gas Company, introduced Mr. Bob Rush and Mr. Mark Peterson, also representing Peoples Natural Gas. Mr. Rush presented a report giving an exact breakdown of expenses and proposed cost projected. They were asking about 6•per cent annual increase in rates, although they felt it was not a sufficient amount. The average cost to a Rochester rdsident would be about $8.00 annually, which he pointed out was quite conservative. Peoples Natural Gas proposed to increase salaries 9-10%, add four or five more employees, two of which should be home economists. They -have beenc:,operating about two or three people short. They do not -give cost of living adjustments, only merit increases. They propose to make additions to the plant costing between $200,000 to $300,000. Mr. Ehrick noted their requested increase is based in part on increases in demand and commodity charges. Projected costs for future years appeared to the Council to be based on increases in the price it will pay to its supplier, Northern Natural Gas, although the boosts haven't as yet been approved by the Federal Power Commission. In the past, they have utilized valley gas from taconite plants. Computer billing has enabled them to collect about 8 more days revenue or•.3% return'. Upon motion by Perry, second by Ellison, and all present voting in favor, the Council will take the request under advisement and bring back a recommendation tonight for action. The recommendation submitted by the Sanitary Land Fill Site Selection Committee, Mark R. Gray, Co-chairman, and Tom 0. Moore, as follows was read: "January 6, 1969 Honorable Mayor & Common Council City of Rochester, Minnesota , RE: Report of Sanitary Land Fill Site Selection Committee Gentlemen: On December 16, 1968, the Common Council appointed a technical committee • Record of Official- Proceedings of the Common Council F9 v of the City of Rochester, Minn., January 6, 1969 composed of staff people of the City of Rochester and Olmsted County.. This committee was charged by the Council with the responsibility of evaluating potential sanitary land fill sites and make a recommenda- tion to you by January 6, 1969. Inzorder to guide our deliberations of potential sites, the committee developed a list of criteria that we felt should be satisfied in order to have an acceptable site. The committee also advertised in Rochester Post -Bulletin to find property owners who had farms they were willing to sell for use as a possible sanitary land fill site. As a result of these ads we did receive five (5) inquiries. We have inspected in the field nine (9) potential sites that meet all or some of the criteria developed and we do have what may be two or three likely alternate sites that would serve the City's purpose for a sanitary land fill area. The committee has also had four meetings to evaluate the information gathered during this period..L As you know, we had a very limited time, in which to do our work. We feel we are close to being able to make a specific recommendation, but this would take additional time. If the Council insists on a site recommendation on this date, we would have to make it on the basis of hastily gathered and partially complete data. However, if the Council wants a factual and complete investigation and report, it will require more time and expense to survey and evaluate the various proposed sites. If you wish the committee to continue its study and make a positive recommendation, we feel we would need at least two (2) months time to evaluate the possible sites we now have under consideration other than on site soil cover. At the end of that time we would be able to recommend two or three sites that would warrant soil borings to deter- mine depth of soil cover. Based on these facts and conditions the committee respectfully requests that it be given an additional sixty (60) days in order to submit a progress report, less information on soil borings. Respectfully submitted, Sanitary Land Fill Site Selection Committee sl Mark Gray, Co-chairman sl Tom 0. Moore" The City's option to buy the 252-acre John Locoschonas farm will expire on January 21st. Mark Gray informed the Council that 39 letters have been sent out to 13 townships as well as County Commissioners and City Aldermen and has received no reply. Upon motion by Folkert, second by Postier, and all present voting in favor, recommendation made that the committee be granted an additional 60 days to report on a new City landfill location. Upon motion by Ellison, second by Perry, and all present voting in favor, the meeting was adjourned until 7:30 o'clock P.M. President DeVries called the meeting to order at 7:30 o'clock P.M., the following members being present: President DeVries, Aldermen Ellison, Folkert, Larson, Perry, and Postier. Absent: Alderman Brunnette. President DeVries stated this as being the time and place set for hearings on the following: Hearing on the approval of the final plat of Thomas Second Subdivision.

President DeVries declared the hearing officially closed. A motion was then made by Larson, second by Ellison, and all -present voting in favor, instructing the City Attorney•to prepare an ordinance making the proposed zone change. - Motion by Folkert, second by Ellison,;.and a:11 present voting in favor thereof, except Postier who voted "nay" as follows: We reaffirm our position that the best traffic solution for the downtown area is a 2-way pair of streets designated as lst Avenue NW -SW • and lst:Ave. SW -SE. We further declare that 1st Avenue West should be constructed with or without Urban Renewal and that we should proceed with construction on 1st Avenue East with Urban Renewal. If Urban Renewal does not become a reality, we should proceed only if it is economically feasible to do so on a local cost basis. Iri doing a feasibility study, three things should be considered. 1. It should be noted we may have to construct 1st'Avenue East at a later date rather than at an earlier one on account of cost of land acquisition. 2. In the study, the Council should consider Broadway as an alternative to 1st Avenue East. 3. In addition to analyzing the cost of land acquisition and construction of each, the effects of traffic in the core area should be considered. Mr. Rush from Peoples Natural Gas was present at the evening meeting. Mr. Ehrick, City Attorney, suggested that Peoples Natural Gas be requested to provide further information on the calculation of the contract demand;.expenses as set forth not only in the 1968 accounting, but to explain the variations as they appear through the years 1961-67; that they be furnished further their cost value plant less depreciation and furnish infor- mation as to the propane plant today as compared to 1961 and what effect is being given to the peak shaving capacity of that plant. Upon motion by Perry, second by Postier, and all present voting in favor except Ellison who voted "nay", the request of Peoples Natural Gas for rate increase was denied on the basis of an incomplete report to substantiate a rate increase at this time. The recommendation of the Public Works Committee returned re. advertising for bids for furnishing one sidewalk snow plow for the Street & Alley Department. Mr. Armstrong stated that to wait for a recommendation from Finance Commitee would make it too late, and even though it was not budgeted for the year 1969, the bids would be referred to the Finance Commiteee before purchase could be made.
