"The Honorable Mayor and City Council
City Hall
Rochester, Minnesota
Gentlemen:
In 1955 Fullerton Lumber Company and the City of Rochester entered into an agreement
whereby Fullerton agreed to purchase certainbonds in the amount of $41,250.00 to
induce the City to install a trunk line sanitary sewer in Northwest Rochester. On
May 24, 1956 Fullerton assigned their interest in this agreement to Builders land
Company.
At the present time there is $9,000.00 remaining in the escrow account of which,
because of recent annexations, we are now entitled to $1,750.89 leaving a balance of
$7,249.11.
We are at this time requesting that the City of Rochester take the necessary steps
to authorize the release of the agreement and that the escrow agent be directed to
pay out the remaining funds to Builders Land Company.
Originally these bonds were for a 30 year redemption period. Becuase of the rapid
expanion of the City 82% of the bonds have been redeemed in a ten year period. It
appears reasonable that the balance will be redeemed within the next few years and
therefore to eliminate escrow fees and carrying charges and to put this money to
more usefull purposes we are making this request. . .
At your convenience we will be pleased to meet with the proper city officials to
discuss and clarify any questions regarding this matter.
Yours truly,
BUIIDERS IAND COMPANY
/s Stanley Guth,,President"

an outline of the method with the recommended local facotrs+which was attached -was read. Upon

of vacation at twenty years service provided that not over two weeks of the
vacation be taken during the busy season of the department. We believe this
change to be the most appropriate means of longevity service reward and recognition
for employees at this time. Also, if adopted, the vacation benefit would then be
standardized frith that of the Utility Department. Although a number of requests
for other changes in fringe benefits were studied, this is the only change
recommended for 1965.
2. Recommend a special adjustment -of $240 per year in the base salary of the Street
and Alley superintendent position as compensation for the extra time demands of
the job beyond eight hours per day. Further, recommend the attached memo be made
a part of the conditions of employment for this position.
3. Recommend reassignment of the position of Assistant Poundmaster into the next
higher bracket of trades and labor jobs with -the pay to be the same as that of
a truck driver (equipment operator #1). Wa recommend this adjustment because
of -the extra time demands of the job beyond forty hours per week and because of
the requirement of the job that the employee furnish a private automobile with.
which to perform his patrol duties.
4. Recommend adoption og a coffee break policy for outside employees of the City
Engineer's Office similar to that now used by most City departments. Such a policy
would require that employees desiring coffee or food during rest periods carry such
with them when working outside, taking rest periods'at the job site, and that travel
to restaurants for this purpose be eliminated.
5. Recommend delay in setting the salaries for the positions of Associate Planner and
Women's Program Leader (Recreation Department) to permit a further review of'prop-
osed 1965 rates, following additional recuitment efforts. The City has been un-
successful in filling vacancies in these two positions since early 1964.
6. We.feel that rates for most part time jobs carrying specific hourly rates are still
appropriate and can remain the same for 1965.
7. We.have not submitted recommendations on salaries for positions in the Assessor's
Office pending more definite Council action on a possible transfer of this function
to the County. _
8. Several additional recommendations of minor significance may be submitted at the
January 5th Council meeting."
Mr. David Leonard,.a Member of the said Committee, was present and reviewed -all of -the recor)nend-
ations made. Copies of these were presented to each of the aldermen for study before the meeting
on January 4, 1965 when salaries -would be set.

for the area described, from R-2 to R-4, as it .would be (under the proposed City Zoning Ordinance)
along the"'entire7east side of the area described below: .The area of change involved is within
these lines:: Fifth Avenue S.W. on the west, Seventh St. S.W.. on the South, the east -west alley
of approximately the west one-half block (surrounded by 4th St. S.W.. on the North, 5th St. S.W..
on the south, Fifth Ave. S.W. on the west, and the north -south alley of this block on the east) as
the north line; and east line consisting of present R-2 and R-4 boundry line, being mostly the -
north -south alley which lies approximately one half block east of Fifth Ave. S.W.• In fact, 2
lots of the above described area facing 6th St. S.W.. are now designated as R-4 in the proposed ordin-
ance. It is our .contention that moving the R-4 line approximately one-half block west as detailed
above, will concide with the best use of the area from a long-range viewpoint, and is the fairest
to the greatest number of property owners in the area."

Commission. All voted.in favor thereof.
