Public Input
Jason Summers, 304 Cedar, expressed his disappointment in the leadership turnout for the Emergency
Services Committee meeting. He stated he would continue to pursue the issue.
Mayor Nelson assured Mr. Summers that leadership in the Ambulance Department has been
brainstorming ideas and is currently looking into the feasibility of these options. All feasible options
will be brought to the Emergency Services Committee; please watch for those to be placed on the
agenda.
General Items
There were none.
Executive Review
• Resolution — YMCA Pool Proposal
The YMCA reprehensive was not able to make tonight's meeting. Kurt Markegard, Public Works
Director, spoke in regards to the contract.
Laurel has used the YMCA's services for approximately 10 years. This contract has gone through
Park Board. Park Board requested that August be prorated due to the short month. The YMCA did
agree to a prorated August. This will save the City $3,000. The payment schedule will be $16,200 on
July 1St, $16,200 on August 1St, and $13,200 on September 1St
The YMCA will be offering swimming lessons again this year the fee schedule is listed in
Attachments A and B. In the past the YMCA has offered lap swimming by request, they need enough
requests to support the required number of lifeguards.
Bill questioned if the $3,000 was in addition to the figures listed in the contract.
Council Workshop Minutes of March 27, 2018
Kurt clarified that the $3,000 is already accounted for in the contract with the $13,200 payment due
on September 1st, which was originally a payment of $16,200.
Iry questioned if the fee schedule per day for the public was included in this proposal.
Mayor Nelson clarified that the fee schedule is not part of this resolution.
Kurt clarified that the pool's schedule of fees was removed from the City's schedule of fees so the
Park Board could discuss and set the fees prior to the pool opening each year. Park Board has
discussed changing the fees to family memberships instead of a paying per day. This topic is not
before Council.
• Resolution —Task Order— East 6th Street Reconstruction
Kurt Markegard, Public Works Director, and Carl Jackson, KLJ, presented this Task Order. This Task
Order is for the designing and bidding phases of the reconstruction of East 6"' Street from lst Avenue
to Wyoming.
East 6th Street was chosen for this project because there were no underlying infrastructure that needed
to be replaced, such as water and sewer, it had a score of 28 out of 100 for its asphalt condition, and is
needed in the future when Montana Avenue, Colorado Avenue, and Pennsylvania Avenue need to be
replaced. When these roads are replaced, the heavy equipment will need to not only enter, but exit the
street without damaging other streets in the process. East 1st Street is capable of this load, but East 60'
Street is not. They may look into creating a Special Improvement District for the sidewalks, gutters,
and driveway approaches. KLJ will look into salvaging as much sidewalk as possible.
There will be a small portion of water main line and fire hydrant replacement on the corner of East 6th
Street and 1st Avenue.
The timing of this project will be crucial, as this street is adjacent to Thompson Park. Thompson Park
is used for the Fourth of July celebrations each year. East 6th Street is also a major throughway for
parents dropping off kids at West and Graff/Middle School. So this project needs to take place after
the Fourth of July but be completed before the start of the school year.
The area has high groundwater and clay soils, so KLJ will need to design around those two known
issues.
Richard Klose questioned how many days this project would take.
Because there are no underground utilities being replaced this project will not take as long, the
contractor should be able to complete the work within the given timeframe.
Bill stated when his street was redone all the sidewalks were replaced, he was not given an option to
keep his sidewalk.
Kurt responded that he was not in charge of that project, but that his goal going forward is only to
replace what is needed. There will be areas of good sidewalk that will need to be taken out to
accommodate of ADA required ramps.
2
Council Workshop Minutes of March 27, 2018
Bill questioned if during the replacement of other streets where ADA ramps installed.
The City is required to meet all current ADA requirements when designing and building a street.
Part of the drainage issue on this street is the water coming from Thompson Park. The good sidewalk
may need to be removed to solve the drainage issue.
Richard Klose questioned if during the design phase if the City will consider changing the parking to
diagonal instead of parallel parking.
Citizens have made statements that there needs to be additional parking at Thompson Park. They have
looked at how many spots they would gain by creating diagonal parking. The code dictates parking
requirements so if the diagonal parking is an option it will need to come before Council for approval.
The downside to diagonal parking is if you are parked next to a large vehicle it can be difficult to see
when backing up. Being located near both a park and school, this may not be the best option.
Mayor Nelson reminded Council that typically a street project is done every two years. They take into
consideration not only the asphalt condition but also the condition of the water and sewer lines
beneath the street. Because the City is looking to replace the SED Basins this year, the Mayor
requested the street selected to be replaced not need any water or sewer improvements. Water and
Sewer improvements are taken out of their respective enterprise funds.
Kurt stated in the past when creating a Special Improvement District; the City has waited for protest,
he would like to try a different approach this year by sending a letter to property owners who have
been identified as needing sidewalk or driveway approach replacement. There are also two crosswalks
that end in driveway approaches. The City will need to communicate with the school on the locations
of these crosswalks.
Richard Herr questioned if the proper base would be built for this street.
Yes, the street will be built with the proper substructure. The known issues of high water and clay in
the soil will need to be incorporated into the design of this street. When the snow melted recently it
was thought to be a water main break, in actuality it was just melted snow that had nowhere to go.
Drainage of water from the Park is a high priority, KLJ will explore the best options for this water.
Richard Herr questioned the concrete work that was done for the bus loading zone at the school and if
it will be salvaged.
The plan is to save this concrete work and incorporate into the overall street design. That repair was
an emergency repair that the School District paid the difference in cost between asphalt and concrete.
There is a culvert located there, the buses crush it, and water does not flow very well through it
leaving a large puddle for kids to jump over. KLJ will explore the option of a valley drain instead.
Iry questioned if all four corners at the intersection of East 6'" Street and Wyoming Avenue would
need to be replaced with the ADA required ramps.
Yes, all corners will need the required ADA ramps.

Council Workshop Minutes of March 27, 2018
Bill stated that he has watched the past few streets be replaced. They have dug down and established
the proper base so that the road will last many years to come. He stated that he was appreciative of the
program in place to not only replace the streets but to replace them correctly.
When Kurt asked what the number one priority for the City is, KLJ responded that Capital
Improvements Plans were the City's top priority. The City is currently using pavement indexing to
rank the streets in need. The City will look into implementing a program that looks at the City as a
whole, identifies projects that need to be completed, ranks them, and allows for not only Council to
discuss what is coming in the future, but to allow an opportunity for citizens to comment on these
projects as well. It is not in the best interest of the City to replace a street and not look at the
underlying infrastructure. If a water main or sewer line fails, the City will need to tear into the street
to address the problem. This will help plan for funding appropriately, both in our enterprise funds and
via grants.
Mayor Nelson stated that recently they met with Montana Department of Transportation to discuss the
City's urban routes, what the City currently has, what routes to create for the future, funding
opportunities, etc.
There is a TA Grant that the City can apply for, this used to be the CTEP grant. An example of a
CTEP project was on East Maryland Lane between Pennsylvania and Iron Horse Station. There were
no crosswalks or connectivity of the sidewalks. The City will need to identify a project that they can
apply for those funds.
Mayor Nelson stated those grants are at an 87 percent/13 percent match rate. The City would be
responsible for the 13 percent.
Emelie stated that during Public Works Committee there was discussion on what the expectation of
KLJ was. They wanted to see more open communication and reduction in costs. The consideration to
salvage any sidewalks possible is a great example of cost reductions.
Motion — Approve consideration by Staff, an application to annex property constituting less
than one half of a City Block: Lots 1-6, Block 7, Nutting Brother Subdivision
Forrest Sanderson, KLJ-Interim Planner, introduced himself to Council as this is the first meeting he
has not had a prior conflict.
Forrest has prepared a staff report regarding this annexation request. He reviewed the highlights of
this report, report and supporting documents are attached.
The staff s recommendation is to deny this request as it is not in the best interest of the City.
Richard Klose noticed the applicant stated on the application that water service is located in the street
in front of the property and sewer service is located in the alley of the property.
Kurt handed out an aerial view of the property and a diagram of the water and sewer lines near the
property, the handout is attached to these minutes. When the City annexes a property, they also annex
the adjacent right of ways.
11
Council Workshop Minutes of March 27, 2018
Richard Herr reiterated that the City prefers the annexation of a full City Block. He asked if the
applicant could arrange with the property owner to annex a whole City Block while only building on
his half.
Yes, the annexation would include the road of Hazel Avenue and the full block of East 8`i' Street,
giving the logical extension of roads, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, water, sewer, and all other
infrastructure associated with being in the City.
Scot questioned if the applicant would be responsible for the infrastructure improvements or if the
City would be responsible for those improvements.
The policy states that the developer would take on all of the costs associated with the expansion of the
infrastructure system. Sidewalks are typically added after a structure has been completed. This allows
the contractor access to the lot without destroying a good sidewalk during construction. The City
would request a bond of 125 percent of the cost to add the infrastructure that will be held two years.
At the end of the two year period, if the developer has not completed all the necessary infrastructure
improvements, then the City would go in and complete those improvements.
Richard Klose asked about private infrastructure such as natural gas when those would be installed.
All private infrastructure is installed concurrently with City infrastructure.
Mayor Nelson offered the applicant, Darrell Dyer, a chance to address the Council.
Darrel Dyer, the annexation applicant, addressed Council. There are two owners of this property. Mr.
Cotter owns the City Block in question, while his ex-wife owns the rest. The road Hazel Avenue
separates these owners. If Mr. Dyer annexed the whole block into the City he would be responsible
for all the improvements on Hazel Avenue; the ex-wife does not want to participate in the expansion
of City services. Therefore, Mr. Dyer's solution to this problem was to annex the half of the block that
would not cause any infrastructure improvements on Hazel Avenue, while he and the property owners
worked out the details to annex the rest of the property into the City.
Emelie gave clarification that motions are given in the affirmative. The motion is to approve
consideration by staff The consideration by staff is to deny this request. The vote will be yes or no to
accept Forrest's recommendation to the Council.
• Motion to allow Council Member Mountsier to be absent from the City of Laurel for more
than ten days (LMC 2.12.060)
There was no discussion.
• Council Discussion
o Update on 2011 Yellowstone River flooding event
Kurt Markegard, Public Works Director, gave an update on the wetland surveying that was requested
this past fall. The weather has finally cooperated, and Great West is out surveying the wetlands to
ensure no wetlands were gained or lost during the construction of the new intake.
Still working with Wilson Brothers to detennine a good time to remove the rock weir. The river
looked like it would be low enough to start the weir removal, but in the few days it took to get the
5
Council Workshop Minutes of March 27, 2018
required permits the water levels rose, and it is no longer safe to remove the weir. When the water
levels fall to a safe level to remove the weir, the contractor will begin work.
Over the winter the new intake was only using one line. With the ice off the river they shut down the
2003 intake, there was a noticeable drop in flow from the new intake. The sensors for the flow rate are
located above the reservoir where both intakes feed into. There is no way to tell what percentage of
water was coming from the new intake and what was coming from the old intake. With the increase in
water level, there was also an increase in turbidities in the river. From the surface you can see
approximately 3 inches into the water, the intake is located 4 feet under water. Staff cannot visualize
the intake until the water level lowers. Great West is looking into the feasibility of using cameras to
look at the intake and make sure there is no obstruction. The 2003 intake is back online in conjunction
with the new intake. There was no slush ice coming into the plant this year as the pipeline is 3 miles
long and the heat from the ground warmed the water up, so there was no slush.
Emelie questioned if they knew if the new intake had ever run at 100 percent capacity.
Kurt responded he was unsure. Out of all the alternatives, this was the best option for the City.
Mayor Nelson assured Council that they would find what the issues are and resolve it.
o Update from staff on electrical work needed in Horseshoe Club building
Kurt Markegard, Public Works Director, stated Park Board recommended a lease for the Horseshoe
Club building in Riverside Park. Upon further inspection by staff, some electrical concerns were
noted. Ace Electric came in and gave an estimate to bring all electrical issues up to code. The question
now is who will pay for these repairs. Some are located in the building and some outside the building.
Mayor Nelson stated that the City does not own the building and therefore should not be responsible
for the cost to bring the building to code.
Scot questioned what the cost would be to fix just the outside issues.
Kurt did not know the cost of just the outside work but would ask the contractor to split the bid and
return to the next Workshop.
Mayor Nelson stated in other leases in Riverside Park it has stated that minor repairs outside of the
building would be taken care of by the City. This is a Council decision and will be brought forward
via resolution.
Iry questioned if the Horseshoe Club does not see power outside the building can the outlet and light
just be removed.
Mayor Nelson suggested the review of the Riverside Park Master Plan and see if the light was
included in those plans, prior to making a decision.
Other Items
Mayor Nelson stated every year he would attend the Elected Officials Boot Camp and Workshop
sessions. This year these are located in Billings. All information will be sent out to Council Members,
if anyone is interested in attending, please contact the Administrative Assistant.

Richard Herr questioned if Public Works knew of a few large potholes by the Lutheran Church and
Catholic Church.
Kurt Markegard, Public Works Director, stated they are aware of the issue on W. 2nd Street. This will
need to be dug and repaired. The asphalt plants are not operating now; the City is doing what they can
right now until those plants open in April.
Scot asked for an update on the sidewalk program.
Scot asked for the City to look at the viability of the Sheriff s community service program.
Mayor Nelson stated that the Council had discussed this program last year and ran into obstacles on
who would staff and supervise the work being completed.
Emelie gave a reminder of the next Public Works Committee meeting on April 16th at 6 p. in. in
Council Chambers.
Emelie clarified that the start time for Budget/Finance should be 5:00 p.m., not 5:30 p.m.
Emelie asked for an update on when the no parking sign will be placed at the High School.
Kurt stated the sign is in his office, and he will get someone out there to place the sign. The curb was
painted last fall.

NOTE: This meeting is open to the public. This meeting is for information and discussion of the Council for the
listed workshop agenda items.
To The City Of Laurel,
I am requesting that six lots which are described by a legal description as follows:
Nutting Brothers Subdivision, S10 To2 R24 E Blk 7 Lot 1-6.
The current plat map as it now sits recorded does not need to be changed. The only
improvements required is the addition of a sidewalk along Juniper and Roosevelt ie 8th
street that joins against the property line. The current use is Vacant land. Under the
zoning that Noel Eaton had designated the minimum square footage per lot was 6000 and
the current lots at at 50x140 or 7000. So my intention of bringing the lots into the city
without any changes should fit nicely.
I have also submitted the letter from the current owner Jim Cotter to allow for the
approval process. Once this has been approved my intent is to close on the land, clean it
up, and build 6 individual homes.
I paid 1,450 in fees on 12/22. So hopefully this process can be expedited.
Best

Re: Annexation Request, Darrell Dyer
Office of the Director of Public
Works
On December 22, 2017, an annexation request for Lots 1 — 6, Block 7, Nutting Brothers
Subdivision was submitted to Noel Eaton with the City of Laurel. A portion of this request was
an initial zoning assignment of Residential Limited Multi -Family (RLMF) and a conceptual Multi -
Family development plan. The request to annex half a block was not presented to the City Council
for consideration as required by City Council Resolution R08-22 and the City approved Request
for Annexation and Plan of Annexation Application form.
The property owner is James M. Cotter and the petitioner is Darrell Dyer. The application
materials contain an approval letter from the owner that has not been notarized, a series of potential
site development plans, application fees, a street view picture of the property in question, tax and
property information. These documents are hereby attached to and made part of this report by
reference.
The Planner, accepted the application and began processing the request including scheduling the
matter for public hearing by the City -County Planning Board and sending certified notices to
surrounding property owners. The petitioner/owner did not submit all of the additional
information in time for the February 1, 2018, City -County Planning Board meeting and the hearing
was canceled. In the interim the City Planner has resigned her position with the City with the
matter pending.
ANALYSIS OF REQUEST
City Council Resolution #R08-22 (March 4, 2008) and the aforementioned Application Form
establishes the criteria and requirements for the annexation of property. Given that we are dealing
with %2 of a Block the analysis will be limited to only those items of initial relevance.
Dyer Annexation
Standard:
1. Only parcels of land adjacent to the City of Laurel will be considered for annexation. If
the parcel to be annexed is smaller that one city block in size (2.06 acres), the city council
must approve consideration of the request; the applicant must make a separate written
request to the city council stating their wish to annex a parcel of land less than onecity
block in size. Once the council approves the request, the applicant can apply for
annexation.
Findings:
A. The property requested for consideration is adjacent to the existing Laurel city limits;
B. The property requested for consideration is t/2 block in size (E%2 Block 7);
C. The property owner (James Cotter) owns all of Block 7 and the E``/2 of Block 6;
D. All of the James Cotter ownership is adjacent to the current Laurel city limits;
E. Piecemeal annexation and is not in the best interest of the City of Laurel and appears to be
inconsistent with your 2013 Growth Policy. (Infrastructure, Land Use, and Transportation
Sections). These sections encourage comprehensive `big picture' looks at development,
growth and the extension of public infrastructure.
MOVING FORWARD
The application does not adequately address the following items as required by Council
Policy:
a. An extension of City Streets, Water, Sewer, Sidewalks, Storm Water, Curb and
Gutter and how the developer/owner intends to pay for these infrastructure
extensions;
b. An executed waiver of the right to protest the creation of SID's;
c. Adequate discussion of the suitability of the proposed zoning for the property to be
annexed;
d. A notarized signature from the record property owner authorizing the annexation
and requested initial zoning;
e. Adequate discussion of the subdivision process to create lots that conform to the
minimum district requirements and use limitations imposed by the Laurel Zoning
Regulations.
2. The application did include a fee for the consideration of annexation and zoning.
a. The fee is adequate for the application as presented but depending upon the decision
of the Council to proceed may not be adequate if a larger area is required to be
annexed.
b. Should the request to proceed with %2 Block annexation be disapproved by the
Council, the fees should be returned, and the applicant required to start over with a
new annexation request.
4
Dyer Annexation
RECOMMENDATION:
The request to proceed with annexation of Lots 1— 6, Block 7, Nutting Brothers Subdivision should
be DENIED for the following reasons:
1. The property owner (James Cotter) owns at least one full City Block and the request for
annexation can easily be amended to comply with the City's desire to conduct annexation,
zoning, and extension of public infrastructure on a comprehensive basis.
2. The requested annexation is not consistent with the 2013 Laurel Growth Policy.
3. Authorize the return the Application Fees paid by the applicant.
