Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of
Red Lake Falls, Red Lake County, Minnesota was duly held in the Council Chambers of said
City on the 25th day of September, 2017.

Members Present: Allen Bertilrud, Kevin Brevik, Sara Kenfield, Justin Carriere, Neil Knaack,
Cheryl Matzke

The meeting was called to order at 6:07 p.m.

The addition of 6.08 Norskie Hockey Game Liquor Sales was added to the Agenda.
Knaack moved, seconded by Brevik, to approve the Consent Agenda with a change to the
minutes, page 2, second paragraph removing the word ‘decks’ replacing it with ‘snowblower
attachment’.

Approval of the September 11, 2017 City Council Meeting Minutes
Approval of the Bills and Disbursements
On vote being taken, the motion was unanimously passed.

NEW BUSINESS
Representatives from Enbridge Energy made a presentation to the council about their
proposed replacement pipeline and deactivation of the existing pipeline. Currently they are in
the pre-construction phase of the “Line 3 Replacement Project” with construction slated to
begin in 2018-2019 pending regulatory approval. The replacement line route crosses Red
Lake County on the east side. After replacement, the existing line will be deactivated. The
Enbridge representatives provided the council with a draft resolution in support of the project.
No action was taken at this time.

The City of Red Lake Falls Safety Program, written with Barb Schmitz, is now complete. The
Safety Binder is kept in the city offices. The council would like their names added to the
‘Chain of Command Call List’ and the city employees and council should review and sign the
Safety Program. Approval of the Safety Program was tabled until everyone has a chance to
look over the binder.

The bids were received for the Sportsman’s Park campground project and they came in much
higher than the engineer anticipated. Barry Glienke does not recommend awarding the
project at this time. We have 45 days to reject the bids.

Knaack moved, seconded by Carriere, to approve the purchase of a new 2016 120 hp John
Deere tractor for $64,000 with trade-in and the Kubota 37 hp snowblower for $35,339 for 0%
financing for 3 years.
On vote being taken, the motion was unanimously passed.

Brevik moved, seconded by Kenfield, to approve Resolution #09-04-2017 – Adoption of the
2018 Proposed Budget. For: Brevik, Knaack, Carriere, Kenfield, Matzke, and Bertilrud.
Absent: None. Against: None. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY

Kenfield moved, seconded by Brevik, to allow liquor sales at the arena during the Norskie
Hockey game on October 27, 2017 contingent on the seller meeting all requirements and
providing a certificate of insurance.
On vote being taken, the motion was unanimously passed.

Brevik moved, seconded by Knaack, to approve the $1,000 expenditure and the go-ahead for
John Wynne to write the grant for Residential and Business Rehabilitation dollars.
On vote being taken, the motion was unanimously passed.

Knaack moved, seconded by Matzke, to authorize Administrator Schmitz to spend up to
$2,500 to enter into a housing study.
On vote being taken, the motion was unanimously passed.

The meeting adjourned at 7:40 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
