ACTION ITEMS<br />
1. The request from Muncheez Pizzeria for a permanent street occupancy permit to place a<br />
street vendor cart at 10 W. College Avenue be approved contingent upon meeting all<br />
Municipal Code requirements.<br />
Director Vandehey gave an update and asked that <strong>the</strong> approval be amended to include 101<br />
W. College Avenue. The business that had a street occupancy permit for this location did not<br />
acquire his CBD vending license, so this location is available.<br />
Paul Vander Linden requested two new addresses in response to <strong>the</strong> locations staff denied.<br />
Alderperson Clemons directed Paul to work with <strong>City</strong> staff on his proposed locations and<br />
<strong>the</strong>n bring <strong>the</strong>m back to Committee for review.<br />
Motion to amend to add 101 W. College Avenue by Konetzke, second by Hill (3/0).<br />
Motion to approve as amended by Konetzke, second by Hill.<br />
Vote on motion. (3/0)<br />
2. The request from David Nelton for a variance to <strong>the</strong> Front Yard Parking Ordinance to widen<br />
his driveway into <strong>the</strong> front yard at 1712 N. Richmond Street.<br />
Director Vandehey stated <strong>the</strong> request is to widen <strong>the</strong> driveway 13 feet. The <strong>ordinance</strong> allows<br />
4 feet into <strong>the</strong> greater front yard.<br />
Alderperson Clemons asked if this will be a safer way to approach Richmond Street?<br />
Director Vandehey stated it would be safer and easier to back out onto Richmond Street.<br />
David Nelton, 1116 S. Irma Street, <strong>Appleton</strong> – stated he owns <strong>the</strong> duplex at 1712 N.<br />
Richmond Street. His reason for this request is to provide a safer way for his tenants to get<br />
onto Richmond Street by providing a turn around pad. He would post <strong>the</strong> area “No Parking”<br />
and would also include in <strong>the</strong>ir lease that <strong>the</strong> area is not for parking vehicles.<br />
Motion to approve by Konetzke, second by Hill.<br />
Alderperson Hill stated 13 feet is not enough room to park a vehicle on. Is this going to be<br />
concrete or asphalt?<br />
Mr. Nelton stated it would be asphalt.<br />
Alderperson Hill asked if tenants did park <strong>the</strong>re and part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> vehicle would be on <strong>the</strong> grass,<br />
is that something we could enforce?<br />
Attorney Totzke responded yes.<br />
Vote on motion. (3/0)<br />
3. Ballard Road from Wisconsin Avenue to Longview Drive be reconstructed with concrete<br />
pavement and curb and gutter to a width <strong>of</strong> 49' from back <strong>of</strong> curb to back <strong>of</strong> curb. The<br />
reconstruction <strong>of</strong> Ballard will include <strong>the</strong> installation <strong>of</strong> new sidewalk along <strong>the</strong> east side <strong>of</strong><br />
Ballard Road between Wisconsin Avenue and Glendale Avenue. The proposed lane<br />
configuration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> reconstructed Ballard Road will consist <strong>of</strong> one (1) northbound lane, one<br />
(1) southbound lane, one (1) shared two-way left turn lane, and five foot on-street bike lanes<br />
on each side <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> proposed Ballard Road. Additionally, a raised median will be constructed<br />
at <strong>the</strong> railroad crossing along Ballard Road.

PAGE 3<br />
Joe Coenen, Echo Service Center, Inc., 1430 N. Ballard Rd., <strong>Appleton</strong> – he is a tenant and<br />
was not aware <strong>of</strong> any work that is going to be done. He asked why sidewalks are only being<br />
installed on <strong>the</strong> east side? He also stated <strong>the</strong> bike lanes are a bad idea. Does not like <strong>the</strong> idea<br />
<strong>of</strong> scaling down to a two lane road.<br />
Alicia Ehlke, 1430 N. Ballard Rd., <strong>Appleton</strong> – concerned about <strong>the</strong> sidewalk going in on <strong>the</strong><br />
east side because <strong>the</strong>re is a lot <strong>of</strong> truck traffic and she is concerned about pedestrian safety.<br />
She is also concerned about Wisconsin Avenue businesses that had to close and would like to<br />
know if access will be allowed.<br />
Tim Ehlke, 1430 N. Ballard Rd., <strong>Appleton</strong> – does not like <strong>the</strong> idea <strong>of</strong> it going to a two lane<br />
road and does not like <strong>the</strong> bike lane idea. He also stated he does not think having sidewalks<br />
on <strong>the</strong> east side where it is mostly industrial is a good idea. Mr. Ehlke asked if this is a<br />
county road?<br />
Tom Leuhring, Valley Transit – concerned with a two lane road and having to stop for riders.<br />
If two lanes, vehicles would have to find a way around <strong>the</strong> bus and also <strong>the</strong> bus <strong>the</strong>n would<br />
have to pull back into traffic.<br />
Jason Brown stated <strong>the</strong> notification letter went out on May 5 th to <strong>the</strong> property owners with<br />
information about <strong>the</strong> May 19 th Public Hearing and also <strong>the</strong> May 24 th and June 7 th meetings<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Municipal Services Committee.<br />
Director Vandehey stated this is a county trunk highway. The proposed agreement is <strong>the</strong><br />
county would pay 60% with <strong>the</strong> city paying <strong>the</strong> 40% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project costs with <strong>the</strong> idea that <strong>the</strong><br />
roadway would be jurisdictionally transferred to <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>. The assessments would <strong>the</strong>n be<br />
based on <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> assessment policy. She fur<strong>the</strong>r stated if <strong>the</strong> assessment is greater than<br />
$1,000 <strong>the</strong>re is a 5-year option for payment.<br />
Director Vandehey stated <strong>the</strong> reason for sidewalks is that we want to make <strong>the</strong> city a<br />
walkable community. We want people to have options to get to work. She fur<strong>the</strong>r stated<br />
<strong>the</strong>re are private signs, private parking lots and private landscaping that have encroached into<br />
<strong>the</strong> road right <strong>of</strong> way that will be removed as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project.<br />
Alderperson Clemons asked if this is approved and we find out later it is not working, is this<br />
easily put back to a four lane road?<br />
Director Vandehey stated <strong>the</strong> width <strong>of</strong> Ballard Road will remain <strong>the</strong> same so it would be a<br />
matter <strong>of</strong> removing pavement markings and removing <strong>the</strong> turn lane.<br />
Director Vandehey stated <strong>the</strong> speed limit is 35 mph. The dual turn lane does allow vehicles to<br />
use this lane to go around o<strong>the</strong>r vehicles, such as buses or slower moving vehicles such as<br />
mopeds.<br />
Director Vandehey stated <strong>the</strong> businesses that closed on Wisconsin Avenue that was <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
choice and some are using this time to do remodeling. There will be some inconvenience to<br />
business owners and property owners but we do try and limit it best that we can.<br />
Motion to approve by Konetzke, second by Hill.<br />

Alderperson Clemons directed staff to schedule a public hearing for July 11 at <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> Plan<br />
Commission for two additional crossings.<br />
Superior Street Crossing Discussion<br />
Alderperson Smith stated he sees Superior Street as a more viable way to provide access to<br />
<strong>the</strong> Central Business District than Oneida Street.<br />
Michael Potter, 520 W Atlantic St., <strong>Appleton</strong> – concerned that <strong>the</strong> traffic counts that were<br />
done on Locust Street were done during construction <strong>of</strong> Memorial Drive and may have been<br />
inflated. He accepted <strong>the</strong> Locust Street closing as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> package that was presented to<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> Plan Commission but if Locust Street becomes a stand alone closure he will not<br />
support it.<br />
Alderperson Wahl stated he received three communications. Two <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m were positive<br />
regarding <strong>the</strong> Superior Street closing and one had concerns with <strong>the</strong> closing. The suggestion<br />
was made to look at converting <strong>Appleton</strong> Street to a two lane road if Superior Street is<br />
closed.<br />
Alderperson Smith asked what is to be gained with <strong>the</strong>se closings? Why are we rushing this?<br />
He would like more information about <strong>the</strong> long term. Is this going to be all or will <strong>the</strong>re be<br />
more closings?<br />
Director Vandehey stated all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> railroad crossings were rated by a point system matrix.<br />
Oneida Street crossing received 5 points and Superior Street received zero points so staff<br />
recommended <strong>the</strong> closing <strong>of</strong> Superior Street.<br />
Alderperson Clemons stated railroad responded in writing that <strong>the</strong>se 3 closures will provide<br />
us with at least one year <strong>of</strong> no more closures.<br />
Alderperson Martin provided pictures showing <strong>the</strong> trestles and proposed pedestrian crossings<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> will gain by <strong>the</strong>se railroad crossings closures.<br />
Director Vandehey stated <strong>the</strong>re is no rush but she would like to get at least two closures<br />
approved so <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> can show good faith to <strong>the</strong> railroad and to eventually bring closure to<br />
this issue.<br />
Director Harkness stated Canadian National will not view Glendale spur removal as a<br />
closure.<br />
Motion to hold Superior Street closure by Alderperson Konetzke.

Fails for lack <strong>of</strong> second.<br />
Director Harkness stated all crossing closures are difficult and have ramifications. There<br />
were a lot <strong>of</strong> meetings and discussions to come up with <strong>the</strong> three that staff is recommending.<br />
Alderperson Hill will support Superior Street closing but not Locust Street because <strong>the</strong>re is a<br />
lot <strong>of</strong> negative neighborhood feedback regarding that closure.<br />
Alderperson Croatt asked if this passes, do <strong>the</strong>se two still close even if package not<br />
approved?<br />
Alderperson Clemons responded yes.<br />
Motion to approve Superior Street closure by Hill, second by Clemons.<br />
Vote on motion. (2/1-Konetzke)<br />
Locust Street Crossing Discussion<br />
Kathy Hartman, 1036 W. Eighth Street, <strong>Appleton</strong> – discussed <strong>the</strong> rules to petition railroad for<br />
closures and read from 195.29 State Statute. She stated some people don’t care about <strong>the</strong><br />
trestles. She stated we are going to lose streets and <strong>the</strong>re will a cost for developing <strong>the</strong><br />
trestles into trails.<br />
Tammy Eastman, 745 W. Lawrence St., <strong>Appleton</strong> – lives on <strong>the</strong> corner <strong>of</strong> Lawrence Street<br />
and Locust Street. She is concerned about cutting <strong>of</strong>f access to businesses.<br />
Alderperson Smith stated Alderperson Spears could not be here but had emailed him with<br />
several questions. Her questions are-is <strong>the</strong>re any o<strong>the</strong>r way to obtain <strong>the</strong> trestles? Does <strong>the</strong><br />
Fox River Navigational Authority have any jurisdiction on what is over <strong>the</strong> river? Does <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> have any rights to <strong>the</strong> trestles if <strong>the</strong>y are considered abandoned property? Can we use<br />
eminent domain to acquire <strong>the</strong>m? Do we know how <strong>the</strong> Town <strong>of</strong> Menasha and <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
Menasha acquired <strong>the</strong>ir train trestles?<br />
Director Harkness stated <strong>the</strong> trestle was donated in Menasha and The Fox River Navigational<br />
Authority has no jurisdiction. She also stated we would not use eminent domain to acquire<br />
<strong>the</strong> trestles.<br />
Motion to hold Locust Street crossing in order to hold a Informal Public Hearing at <strong>the</strong> July<br />

define commercial entertainment as something that is confined to <strong>the</strong> inside <strong>of</strong> a building<br />
we thought that this would allow someone <strong>the</strong> ability to be creative and have some reuse<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> vacant industrial building. It does not waive <strong>the</strong> requirement <strong>of</strong> providing parking<br />
and those kinds <strong>of</strong> things. Those are still required. But at least when you have some<br />
vacant warehousing or industrial type buildings that have been vacant for a number <strong>of</strong><br />
years and we can support someone who proposes a creative/positive use <strong>of</strong> a vacant<br />
building. Those kinds <strong>of</strong> uses typically aren’t impacting o<strong>the</strong>r industrial uses around<br />
<strong>the</strong>m.<br />
Staff thought that this was a good change and we would recommend approval.<br />
J. Dukelow questioned if commercial entertainment would be a non residential use <strong>of</strong><br />
some o<strong>the</strong>r zoning classifications?<br />
B. Roskom stated that yes, some commercial districts.<br />
J. Dukelow questioned if ra<strong>the</strong>r than have someone who owns an M-1 zoned building<br />
that’s vacant has to come in and go through <strong>the</strong> process <strong>of</strong> rezoning do you just want to<br />
add those allowable things to <strong>the</strong> zoning to simplify <strong>the</strong> process?<br />
B. Roskom stated that it simplifies <strong>the</strong> process plus it may be somewhat difficult to<br />
rezone <strong>the</strong> property in <strong>the</strong> middle <strong>of</strong> an industrial area. If <strong>the</strong>re was something that led us<br />
to say that just doesn’t fit <strong>the</strong>re, I don’t think we would have supported it. But we just<br />
couldn’t come up with that negative and it made more sense than rezoning.<br />

Motion to approve by M. Potter, seconded by C. Konetzke.<br />
C. Konetzke brought up when Fratello’s first came in and what that property would have<br />
been zoned. Looking at Riverside Paper, if <strong>the</strong>re is something that is on <strong>the</strong> riverfront<br />
that is a warehouse our commercial type building why wouldn’t we have a restaurant, bar<br />
or dance hall down <strong>the</strong>re in a commercial building? Why does it have to be limited to<br />
what was described as commercial entertainment.<br />
B. Roskom stated that some codes allow all previous district uses within <strong>the</strong> next district.<br />
So you can take an M-1 and say all C-2 uses are permitted in an M-1. It is kind <strong>of</strong> a<br />
pyramid approach. You can pick selective uses if you like. You do have more outside<br />
exposure/uses related to those kinds <strong>of</strong> things than you do commercial entertainment<br />
which is totally confined to <strong>the</strong> inside.

C. Konetzke is not picturing Foremost property being turned into a bar and restaurant <strong>the</strong><br />
way it is. But it is almost like commercial entertainment is too narrowly defined as what<br />
you are classifying as commercial entertainment.<br />
B. Roskom stated that it is narrowly defined and I think intentionally so. In some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
cases <strong>the</strong> uses described really have more affective as a PD overlay or an over all<br />
redevelopment area. This really isn’t what that’s applying to. You brought up Foremost,<br />
RiverHeath and Eagle Flats. Two out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> three we have PDs on which allows that<br />
creativity to take place. It gives you greater ability to see <strong>the</strong> specifics <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> use than<br />
something like this that basically says you can do it as an outright permitted use.<br />
K. Harkness stated that many <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> commercial entertainment uses that we saw that<br />
might be compatible with <strong>the</strong> business park area are those types <strong>of</strong> commercial<br />
entertainment that you are not going to find in strip centers or in buildings in our Central<br />
Business District. They just wouldn’t ever go <strong>the</strong>re for many reasons and <strong>the</strong>y wouldn’t<br />
fit in that type <strong>of</strong> building and wouldn’t be appropriate. That was ano<strong>the</strong>r reason we<br />
came at it from this angle.<br />
M. Potter commented on C. Konetzke question about why not have a restaurant/bar/dance<br />
hall <strong>the</strong>re. Are we opening that commercial entertainment door to possibly using a<br />
special use permit to work into something like that <strong>the</strong>re? Would that be a special use<br />
permitted concept?<br />
B. Roskom stated no. If you were looking at that type <strong>of</strong> mixed use, <strong>the</strong>n you can use <strong>the</strong><br />
PD overlay to try to accomplish that.<br />
P. Stueck questioned if it were possible to build a facility in one <strong>of</strong> our industrial parks<br />
with <strong>the</strong> thought <strong>of</strong> using commercial entertainment as <strong>the</strong> main purpose <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> business?<br />
K. Harkness replied yes.<br />
P. Stueck wanted to make <strong>the</strong> comment that we have had people speak to us in <strong>the</strong> past<br />
and have been disappointed that we were allowing some laxing <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> covenants in <strong>the</strong><br />
industrial park district. His concern is that we are laxing this even more so.<br />
B. Roskom stated that this doesn’t impact <strong>the</strong> covenants <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> industrial parks at all.<br />
They still apply and stand by <strong>the</strong>mselves. If <strong>the</strong>y are more restrictive <strong>the</strong>n you can<br />
enforce <strong>the</strong>m and be more restrictive.<br />

3. Official Map Amendment – Stormwater Pond located at <strong>the</strong> Nor<strong>the</strong>ast corner <strong>of</strong><br />
Kensington Drive and Express Court (Tax Parcel No. 31-4-5568-00).<br />
D. Harp stated that this request was initiated by <strong>the</strong> Public Works Department and is<br />
based on <strong>the</strong> storm water management plans for this area <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> city. Particularly for this<br />
location it is recommended that a pond be constructed on this site to facilitate dry land<br />
access for emergency vehicles during a one hundred year storm event. Although <strong>the</strong><br />
pond is identified in this particular area <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> property it serves notice <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> city’s intent
CITY PLAN COMMISSION<br />
June 6, 2011<br />
PAGE 4<br />
to construct <strong>the</strong> storm water pond and <strong>the</strong>re is flexibility to move that pond on <strong>the</strong><br />
property as <strong>the</strong> property develops in <strong>the</strong> future.<br />
P. Vandehey stated that <strong>the</strong>re is flexibility in moving it on that site. There are two<br />
reasons it is shown <strong>the</strong>re. One reason is that it is <strong>the</strong> most cost effective place to put it<br />
based on <strong>the</strong> existing infrastructure. Second <strong>the</strong>y would not be allowed any driveway<br />
access points in those locations. Since <strong>the</strong>y can’t have driveway access <strong>the</strong>re, <strong>the</strong><br />
driveway access needs to be fur<strong>the</strong>r away. The concept really is once that piece <strong>of</strong><br />
property is developed <strong>the</strong>y’re going to have to meet storm water requirements. So <strong>the</strong><br />
idea is that we would join forces with <strong>the</strong>m. They are going to have to take <strong>the</strong> steps to<br />
meet quality. Our project is for quantity so we can address those two issues toge<strong>the</strong>r.<br />
K. Harkness stated that that parcel is currently for sale.<br />
Mayor Hanna opened <strong>the</strong> Public Hearing.<br />
Mayor Hanna closed <strong>the</strong> Public Hearing.<br />
Motion to approve by M. Potter, seconded by C. Konetzke.<br />
C. Konetzke is glad that P. Vandehey clarified <strong>the</strong> point. He thinks this is located in<br />
absolutely <strong>the</strong> wrong spot. Unless we can get a road, which he knows we can, in 89.83<br />
feet, <strong>the</strong> section that is left <strong>the</strong>re is unusable. It can’t possibly be used for development.<br />
Located <strong>the</strong>re is a massive warehouse in <strong>the</strong> Menards property. At <strong>the</strong> backside are<br />
railroad tracks. He understands that <strong>the</strong> city will end up spending more money, but if that<br />
pond is pushed all <strong>the</strong> way to that back corner at least that land is usable in <strong>the</strong> front. It<br />
is going to bring tax revenue to <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong>.<br />
Menard’s has got a pond <strong>the</strong>re. A joint effort in expanding Menard’s pond or taking over<br />
Menard’s pond from <strong>the</strong>m would open up that entire corridor for development.<br />
P. Vandehey stated that <strong>the</strong> fur<strong>the</strong>r away it gets from this <strong>the</strong> cost significantly goes up.<br />
We are trying to address flooding issues in this area. It does not need to be <strong>the</strong>re. There<br />
are more things that need to be talked about. But right now we need to put that area on<br />
notice that we are trying to address flooding issues in that area and that <strong>the</strong>re needs to be<br />
a pond or underground storage to address <strong>the</strong> flooding in that area.<br />
M. Potter questioned if it would cost additional money to have <strong>the</strong> 89.83 feet at <strong>the</strong> back<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> pond on <strong>the</strong> north side if we had it on Kensington?<br />
P. Vandehey stated it certainly could and <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong>y would have to get access in a different<br />
way. Because <strong>the</strong>y couldn’t get access that close to Kensington.<br />
M. Potter questioned if flooding has been a major problem in this area?<br />
P. Vandehey replied yes.<br />
J. Dukelow questioned if we knew <strong>the</strong> economic impact that it has on <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
parcel?<br />
K. Harkness responded that <strong>the</strong> purchase <strong>of</strong> this property had taken place before any <strong>of</strong><br />
this discussion had occurred. The people that own this now are aware <strong>of</strong> this action and
CITY PLAN COMMISSION<br />

PAGE 5<br />
<strong>the</strong>y also changed <strong>the</strong>ir mind and <strong>the</strong>ir direction on what <strong>the</strong>y had originally thought that<br />
<strong>the</strong>y might build <strong>the</strong>re. There were some changes in <strong>the</strong> economy that precipitated <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
change <strong>of</strong> thought. This parcel is now currently for sale.<br />

3. Approval <strong>of</strong> Minutes:<br />
The Minutes <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Utilities Committee Meeting <strong>of</strong> May 24, 2011 were approved. Motion made<br />
by Alderperson Baranowski, seconded by Alderperson Martin. (4/0)<br />
4. APPEARANCES<br />
a) None<br />
5. ACTION ITEMS<br />
a) Proceed with 5-Year Stormwater Budget assuming rate increases no higher than 24% in 2013<br />
and 18% in 2016.<br />
MOTION: Motion made by Alderperson Jirschele, seconded by Alderperson Hill to approve<br />
proceeding with 5-year Stormwater Budget assuming rate increases no higher than 24%<br />
in 2013 and 18% in 2016. (4/0)<br />
Comments: Director Remiker spoke about <strong>the</strong> efforts <strong>of</strong> staff to minimize rate increases and <strong>the</strong><br />
amount <strong>of</strong> planning and thought that is put into it. She reminded Committee <strong>the</strong>se<br />
projections are made based on <strong>the</strong> average annual residential bill; rate increases will vary<br />
based on class <strong>of</strong> customer and services provided.<br />
Chairperson Jirschele stated that Alderperson Spears spoke to him today regarding this<br />
and she supports going forward with <strong>the</strong> item.
UTILITIES COMMITTEE MEETING<br />

Alderperson Baranowski stated he appreciated <strong>the</strong> projections and what individual<br />
utilities could cost over <strong>the</strong> next five years. Chairperson Jirschele reminded Committee<br />
that this is a forecast only; it has not been approved by anyone.<br />
b) Adopt Alternative 4 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Kensington North Drainage Study prepared by AECOM.<br />
MOTION: Motion made by Alderperson Baranowski, seconded by Alderperson Jirschele to adopt<br />
Alternative 4 <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Kensington North Drainage Study prepared by AECOM. (4/0)<br />
Comments: Stormwater Engineer Sue Olson reviewed <strong>the</strong> figures in <strong>the</strong> agenda packet. The figures<br />
compare 10-year and 100-year storm events for both existing conditions and using<br />
alternative 4.<br />
Alternative 4 includes a one acre pond at <strong>the</strong> nor<strong>the</strong>ast corner <strong>of</strong> Express Court and<br />
Kensington Drive, a one acre pond on <strong>the</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong> Papers property, and increases <strong>the</strong><br />
storm sewer pipe diameter to 48” on Warehouse Road. This alternative will eliminate<br />
<strong>the</strong> problem areas at Menards, <strong>the</strong> Express Court intersection, and Warehouse Road.<br />
There were no cost effective alternatives to address ponding north <strong>of</strong> Newberry Street.<br />
Engineer Olson stated that staff has spoken to <strong>Appleton</strong> Papers regarding existing<br />
conditions and study alternatives. They have indicated <strong>the</strong>y have not experienced<br />
ponding that affected <strong>the</strong>ir buildings or operations. Staff is not recommending <strong>of</strong>ficial<br />
mapping <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> proposed pond on <strong>the</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong> Papers property at this time since<br />
ponding experience does not appear to be significant. <strong>Appleton</strong> Papers is aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
option on <strong>the</strong>ir property so <strong>the</strong> option will remain open to work with <strong>the</strong>m in <strong>the</strong> future<br />
for any redevelopment opportunities or issues in <strong>the</strong> future.<br />
Engineer Olson stated <strong>the</strong> purpose <strong>of</strong> getting Alternative 4 adopted is to put it in <strong>the</strong><br />
books which will allow staff to work closely with a future developer to meet both <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
needs and <strong>the</strong> public needs for reduced ponding.<br />
c) Reaffirm <strong>the</strong> Theodore Street / East High Stormwater Project final design and bidding in 2011.<br />
Review bid prices received in October 2011 for final determination if project is a go.<br />
MOTION: Motion made by Alderperson Baranowski, seconded by Alderperson Hill to reaffirm <strong>the</strong><br />
Theodore Street / East High Stormwater Project final design and bidding in 2011 and to<br />
review bid prices received in October 2011. (4/0)<br />
Comments: Director Vandehey stated bids will be received in October 2011 and Committee can<br />
decide at that time to go ahead with <strong>the</strong> project. She stated that if <strong>the</strong> project is<br />
postponed too long, East High will do <strong>the</strong>ir parking lot and may not allow it to be dug up<br />
or <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> will not be able to afford to dig it up and <strong>the</strong> project won’t be done. The<br />
opportunity to do <strong>the</strong> project is concurrent with <strong>the</strong> parking lot project.<br />
d) Request approval <strong>of</strong> electronic Compliance Maintenance Annual Report (eCMAR) for 2010<br />
(attachment) and request <strong>the</strong> following Resolution by presented to <strong>the</strong> Common Council for<br />
approval:
UTILITIES COMMITTEE MEETING<br />
JUNE 7, 2011<br />
Page 3<br />
RESOLVED, that <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong> inform <strong>the</strong> Department <strong>of</strong> Natural Resources that <strong>the</strong><br />
following actions were taken by <strong>the</strong> Common Council:<br />
1. Review and approval <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Compliance Maintenance Annual Report (CMAR), which is<br />
attached to this Resolution.<br />
2. Set forth <strong>the</strong> following actions to maintain requirements contained in <strong>the</strong> WPDES Permit:<br />
a) Department <strong>of</strong> Utilities continue to evaluate <strong>the</strong> compost demonstration project and fur<strong>the</strong>r<br />
reduce infiltration and inflow from our collection system.<br />
MOTION: Motion made by Alderperson Baranowski, seconded by Alderperson Martin to approve<br />
electronic Compliance Maintenance Annual Report (eCMAR) for 2010 and present <strong>the</strong><br />
Resolution to Council for approval. (4/0)<br />
Comments: Director Shaw reviewed that <strong>the</strong>re is a regulatory requirement to annually assess <strong>the</strong><br />
wastewater treatment facility under NR 208. The report identifies effluent and biosolids<br />
treatment compliance, operator certification, financial reserves, and collection system<br />
maintenance. In total <strong>the</strong> report identifies ten categories that are graded independently.<br />
The 2010 report identified each category with <strong>the</strong> letter grade <strong>of</strong> “A”. The grade point<br />
average (GPA) was also an “A”. This is <strong>the</strong> highest score that <strong>the</strong> facility has received.<br />
Director Shaw explained that <strong>the</strong> credit for <strong>the</strong> score and current state <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> facility and<br />
its ability to function at a high level is a result <strong>of</strong> a number <strong>of</strong> department’s efforts. The<br />
wastewater compliance record is due to <strong>the</strong> work <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> operations and maintenance staff<br />
at <strong>the</strong> wastewater plant. The public works department maintains <strong>the</strong> collection system<br />
which continues to perform capital and maintenance projects in order to have a system<br />
that works reliably. Director Shaw mentioned <strong>the</strong> financial planning and record keeping<br />
components are key to <strong>the</strong> financial health <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> wastewater utility. The resolution will<br />
promote activities that have been identified in previous reports.<br />
6. INFORMATION ITEMS<br />

a. The Operator’s License application <strong>of</strong> Marco Sanchez, 1977 Harrison Street, #12,<br />
Neenah.<br />
Marco Sanchez: Chief Walsh informed <strong>the</strong> committee that <strong>the</strong>y must first deal with Mr.<br />
Sanchez’ felony conviction for bail jumping during <strong>the</strong> time he had his 5 th OWI conviction. Mr.<br />
Sanchez said his OWI convictions were reduced to 4, not 5 as reported. He was not anticipating<br />
being in <strong>the</strong> bar/restaurant business <strong>the</strong> years he had gotten his OWIs. He is now working as a<br />
restaurant manager.<br />
Lutz moved, seconded by Oswald, <strong>the</strong> felony conviction is not deemed to be substantially<br />
related.<br />
Oswald clarified <strong>the</strong> bail jumping was not related to <strong>the</strong> OWI. Discussion was held on <strong>the</strong><br />
conditions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> bail jumping charge.<br />
Voice vote on felony deemed not related. (3-1/Plank) Motion carried.<br />
Lutz moved, seconded by Oswald, <strong>the</strong> Operator’s License application <strong>of</strong> Marco Sanchez, 1977<br />
Harrison Street, #12, Neenah be denied due to <strong>the</strong> applicant’s police record and <strong>the</strong> fact that he<br />

Chandra Zimmer: Chief Walsh advised <strong>the</strong> Committee that Ms. Zimmer only reported 2 <strong>of</strong> her<br />
12 convictions and stated her police record is <strong>of</strong> concern.<br />
Lutz moved, seconded by Oswald, <strong>the</strong> Operator’s License application <strong>of</strong> Chandra M. Zimmer,<br />
1624 Shangri-La-Road, Neenah be denied due to <strong>the</strong> applicant’s conviction for serving an<br />
intoxicated person.<br />
Ms. Zimmer explained <strong>the</strong> details surrounding <strong>the</strong> charge <strong>of</strong> sale to an intoxicated person.<br />
Oswald stated her police record indicates a past pattern <strong>of</strong> failure to abide by <strong>the</strong> law.<br />

convictions on her license application<br />
Oswald moved, seconded by Smith, <strong>the</strong> Operator’s License application <strong>of</strong> Julie A. Carle, 208<br />

e. The Operator’s License application <strong>of</strong> Courtney M. Ohlfs, 2521 Honeylou Court, #2.<br />
Courtney Ohlfs: Chief Walsh advised <strong>the</strong> Committee that Courtney failed to list her conviction<br />
on her application form. Ms. Ohlfs sated she did not know <strong>the</strong> merchandise she was asked to<br />
keep was stolen. The <strong>municipal</strong> judge in Kaukauna said this would not affect her ability to get a<br />
job. Smith questioned where she is working. Ms. Ohlfs stated she is working at Mobil. Oswald<br />
stated he does not understand why a judge would say that to her. Ms. Ohlfs stated she was never<br />
arrested for this charge. She just paid a fine and did not have to go to court. She looked up on<br />
CCAP and did not find her name.<br />
Oswald moved to deny <strong>the</strong> license. No second received for <strong>the</strong> motion.<br />
Smith moved, seconded by Lutz, <strong>the</strong> Operator’s License application <strong>of</strong> Courtney M. Ohlfs, 2521<br />
Honeylou Court, #2 be granted.<br />
Lutz stated he would like to hold true to his belief about not completing <strong>the</strong> application form, but<br />
he does feel Ms. Ohlfs has explained why she did not put it down. Oswald does not feel he has<br />
received a complete story on this. Not revealing <strong>the</strong> information is a reason to deny. Smith<br />
stated because she is not on CCAP, he understands why she did not think she had to put <strong>the</strong><br />
information on her application. Voice vote. (2-2/Plank, Oswald). Since <strong>the</strong>re is a tie vote, <strong>the</strong><br />
item will be reported out as a denial.<br />

The meeting was called to order by Chairperson Croatt at 6:30 PM.<br />
ACTION:<br />
a. Request from <strong>Appleton</strong> Area Jaycees to charge for parking during <strong>the</strong> Civic<br />
Celebration on July 3, 2011.<br />
Lecker stated <strong>the</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong> Area Jaycees are requesting to charge for parking at <strong>Appleton</strong><br />
Memorial Park for <strong>the</strong> Civic Celebration on July 3, 2011. Similar to 2010, <strong>the</strong> JC’s are<br />
requesting <strong>the</strong> parking lot near <strong>the</strong> Gardens <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fox Cities and also <strong>the</strong> parking lot on <strong>the</strong><br />
west <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> ball diamond complex. The JC’s will be sharing <strong>the</strong> parking proceeds with <strong>the</strong><br />
Gardens <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fox Cities who will be providing <strong>the</strong> volunteers to collect <strong>the</strong> parking fees.<br />
Paul Schmerse, <strong>Appleton</strong> Area Jaycees, stated <strong>the</strong> parking situation went very well in 2010<br />
with only a few individuals who did not support <strong>the</strong> parking fee. The revenue from <strong>the</strong><br />
parking fees is needed to support <strong>the</strong> Civic Celebration since corporate sponsorships are<br />
down and <strong>the</strong> JC’s do not receive any financial support from <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>.<br />
Croatt stated he was opposed to this request in 2010 and will continue to oppose this idea<br />
because he does not feel it is appropriate to charge <strong>the</strong> public to come to <strong>the</strong> fireworks<br />
celebration. Croatt stated he appreciated <strong>the</strong> work <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> JC’s to organize this event, but<br />
cannot support charging a parking fee in a public park.<br />
Oswald stated he reluctantly supported this last year, but has recently changed his mind. He<br />
questioned Schmerse why <strong>the</strong> additional parking lot was needed to provide <strong>the</strong> same<br />
experience for <strong>the</strong> community. Schmerse stated sponsorships are down and funds are needed<br />
to support this program. The total cost <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> program to <strong>the</strong> JC’s is approximately $43,000<br />
and <strong>the</strong> JC’s receive no financial support from <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>. Oswald noted <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> does provide<br />
all <strong>the</strong> police protection during <strong>the</strong> event. Schmerse recognized this support, but noted many<br />
communities provide funds for <strong>the</strong> fireworks program.
Oswald questioned if o<strong>the</strong>r lots were available in <strong>the</strong> park that were free. Lecker stated <strong>the</strong>re<br />
are three o<strong>the</strong>r lots in <strong>the</strong> park that are available for <strong>the</strong> public.<br />
Oswald questioned why <strong>the</strong> report provided by Schmerse to Alderperson Smith after <strong>the</strong><br />
2010 event was not shared with <strong>the</strong> Committee. Lecker stated he was not aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> report<br />
until last week when he began to work with Schmerse on this issue. Oswald stated he<br />
disagreed with <strong>the</strong> statement in <strong>the</strong> report that noted <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> would step forward to support<br />
<strong>the</strong> fireworks if <strong>the</strong>re were not enough corporate sponsorships. He stated <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> would help<br />
find a way to continue <strong>the</strong> fireworks, but not necessarily fund <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
Croatt also stated it would be difficult for <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> to support <strong>the</strong> fireworks financially with<br />
<strong>the</strong> current budget challenges. He questioned <strong>the</strong> section <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> report that requested <strong>the</strong><br />
Parks and Recreation Department to assist with set up for event. Schmerse stated <strong>the</strong> JC’s<br />
would welcome any assistance from <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> when setting up <strong>the</strong> event, including mowing<br />
trails for <strong>the</strong> fireworks displays, installing fencing, etc. Lecker stated he would work with <strong>the</strong><br />
Facilities and Grounds Department, but noted <strong>the</strong> Grounds staff has seen a number <strong>of</strong> staff<br />
reductions in <strong>the</strong> past year and assisting will be difficult without compromising some o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
activities. Schmerse would also like to see a staff member available during <strong>the</strong> event to assist<br />
with issues that arise during <strong>the</strong> day.<br />
Martin stated he would ask <strong>the</strong> Committee to support this request. The JC’s have been a<br />
strong partner with <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> to bring this event to <strong>the</strong> community. Martin also noted <strong>the</strong><br />
number <strong>of</strong> parking stalls that are being requested is a very small amount compared to all <strong>the</strong><br />
parking that is used for this event. He felt without this support from <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>, it is possible<br />
<strong>the</strong> JC’s may not be able to continue this event for <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>.<br />
Croatt questioned <strong>the</strong> expected revenue from <strong>the</strong> parking lots. Schmerse stated <strong>the</strong> JC’s<br />
revenues would be about $1494. Croatt questioned <strong>the</strong> cost <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> overall program.<br />
Schmerse stated <strong>the</strong> 2010 event cost about $43,000. Croatt questioned <strong>the</strong> ability <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
community to cover <strong>the</strong> $1494 so parking could remain free.<br />
Oswald questioned <strong>the</strong> total number <strong>of</strong> parking stalls in <strong>the</strong> two parking lots. Schmerse stated<br />
<strong>the</strong>re are 125 parking stalls in <strong>the</strong> Gardens <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> FC lot and 185 stalls in <strong>the</strong> west ball<br />
diamond lot. He also noted <strong>the</strong> parking revenues would be shared with <strong>the</strong> Gardens <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
FC.<br />
Oswald questioned if volunteers could help support this event and o<strong>the</strong>r park activities and<br />
functions. Schmerse stated <strong>the</strong>re are many volunteers who currently support <strong>the</strong> event, but<br />
<strong>the</strong> parking fees are needed to support costs like insurance, fireworks, etc.<br />
Metille stated it has been his experience living in larger cities that charging for parking is<br />
very common, so this concept <strong>of</strong> free parking for a large, community event is somewhat<br />
foreign to him. He feels this request is a good way for <strong>the</strong> JC’s to help <strong>of</strong>fset some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
program costs.
Oswald stated that with <strong>the</strong> large number <strong>of</strong> parking spots available outside <strong>the</strong> park and <strong>the</strong><br />
small number <strong>of</strong> complaints received in 2010, he could support this request. Schmerse stated<br />
<strong>the</strong> volunteers collecting <strong>the</strong> parking fees in 2010 were very reputable communities and felt<br />
<strong>the</strong>ir feedback was very solid.<br />
Wahl questioned if <strong>the</strong> request from <strong>the</strong> JC’s was for 2011 only. Lecker stated <strong>the</strong> request<br />
was for 2011. Wahl questioned if <strong>the</strong> request could be granted for multiple years. Croatt<br />
stated <strong>the</strong> action item is listed for 2011 only and he also stated it may be beneficial to see<br />
how 2011 goes and <strong>the</strong>n address future years later. Croatt suggested this action item be<br />
brought back to <strong>the</strong> Committee much sooner for next year. Schmerse stated it was his<br />
understanding from o<strong>the</strong>r city staff that charging for parking was not an issue. Lecker stated<br />
<strong>the</strong> issue was brought to this committee when he became aware <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> request. He will work<br />
with <strong>the</strong> JC’s to get this request on <strong>the</strong> Parks and Recreation Committee agenda as soon as<br />
possible for 2012.<br />
Oswald questioned <strong>the</strong> outreach efforts in 2010 to inform <strong>the</strong> public <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> parking fees.<br />
Schmerse did not remember <strong>the</strong> specific advertising <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> parking fee, but if this is<br />
approved, <strong>the</strong>y would include <strong>the</strong> parking lot fees in <strong>the</strong>ir advertising, website, etc.<br />
INFORMATIONAL:<br />
Motion was made by Oswald, seconded by Mettille to allow <strong>the</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong> Area<br />
Jaycees to charge for parking during <strong>the</strong> Civic Celebration on July 3, 2011.<br />

b. Update on Resolution #13-R-10/Spears – “Resolved, <strong>the</strong> removal <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> tennis courts at<br />
Kiwanis and Summit Parks be delayed until June 1, 2011, to allow citizens to raise <strong>the</strong><br />
funds necessary to replace and/or refurbish <strong>the</strong>m.” approved by <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> Council on<br />
June 16, 2010. (Attachment B)<br />
Lecker reported he received an email from <strong>the</strong> M.A.T.C.H. group this week indicating a<br />
meeting has been scheduled for next week. There are still a couple items in <strong>the</strong> MOU to be<br />
resolved.<br />
Croatt questioned if <strong>the</strong> project would disappear if <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> and M.A.T.C.H. could not agree<br />
on a MOU. Lecker stated both groups are attempting to present a MOU to <strong>the</strong> Committee<br />
that is mutually agreed upon, but if <strong>the</strong> Department and M.A.T.C.H. cannot come to an<br />
understanding, <strong>the</strong> MOU would be brought to <strong>the</strong> Committee for input and direction.<br />
Croatt expressed concern about <strong>the</strong> June 1, 2011 deadline in <strong>the</strong> resolution. Doucette<br />
suggested <strong>the</strong> resolution be brought back as an action item and <strong>the</strong> Committee could <strong>the</strong>n
make adjustments that would reflect <strong>the</strong> current status <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project. Croatt asked that <strong>the</strong><br />
resolution be added to <strong>the</strong> next meeting agenda as an action item.<br />
c. Pillars <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Community Project. (Attachment C)<br />
Lecker stated <strong>the</strong> Pillars <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Community beautification <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Jones Park project was<br />
presented to <strong>the</strong> Committee and Council in 2004 and <strong>the</strong> MOU was signed in September<br />
2005. Due to a number <strong>of</strong> issues, <strong>the</strong> project never got <strong>of</strong>f <strong>the</strong> ground. The primary contact<br />
for <strong>the</strong> project, Alex Camacho, contacted <strong>the</strong> Department several weeks ago and expressed<br />
an interest in getting this project going again. Lecker stated that due to <strong>the</strong> time delay and<br />
changes to <strong>the</strong> Committee and Council, it would be beneficial to bring this project back to <strong>the</strong><br />
Committee.<br />
Camacho stated he had been involved with similar projects in <strong>the</strong> past. He stated he had<br />
worked with <strong>the</strong> Valley New School to develop <strong>the</strong> project, including <strong>the</strong> identification <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
community “pillars” that would be recognized on <strong>the</strong> bridge pillars. Camacho stated he had<br />
contacted <strong>the</strong> state <strong>of</strong> Wisconsin bridge inspector and received clearance to use <strong>the</strong> pillars for<br />
this beautification project. The project would include <strong>the</strong> 8 pillars under <strong>the</strong> Oneida Street<br />
Bridge and <strong>the</strong> concrete embankments. The materials would be vandal-resistant and low<br />
maintain. The MOU included an endowment fund <strong>of</strong> $5000 to assist with <strong>the</strong> long term care<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project. Camacho stated <strong>the</strong> challenge was finding <strong>the</strong> right not-for-pr<strong>of</strong>it organization<br />
to partnership with so donations to <strong>the</strong> project could be tax deductible. He noted he recently<br />
met with <strong>the</strong> director <strong>of</strong> Arts Wisconsin in Madison who <strong>of</strong>fered to serve as <strong>the</strong> fiscal agent<br />
for this project. Camacho stated <strong>the</strong> project would not require any <strong>City</strong> support.<br />
Croatt questioned Doucette about <strong>the</strong> status <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> MOU since it has been 6 years since it was<br />
approved by Council. Doucette stated <strong>the</strong>re is no clause in <strong>the</strong> MOU that causes it to expire;<br />
however, it is <strong>the</strong> opinion <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Attorney’s <strong>of</strong>fice that since <strong>the</strong>re was no action taken on <strong>the</strong><br />
MOU that it is no longer a valid agreement. Doucette suggested <strong>the</strong> MOU be brought back<br />
to <strong>the</strong> Committee as an action item again after it has been updated and revised. Croatt stated<br />
<strong>the</strong>re appears to be components <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project that have changed since <strong>the</strong> original MOU was<br />
adopted that would need to be revised before moving forward.<br />
Oswald stated <strong>the</strong>re were many projects and programs that had been approved prior to his<br />
election to <strong>the</strong> Council that had a longer shelf life than this project and questioned why it was<br />
felt this MOU was no longer valid. Doucette stated <strong>the</strong>re has been no action taken on this<br />
MOU and <strong>the</strong>re are some components <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> MOU that are not current, including <strong>the</strong> mailing<br />
address <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> “Pillars <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Community” organization, <strong>the</strong> cost <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project, <strong>the</strong> funding<br />
agent, etc. She stated it would be beneficial for all parties to revise <strong>the</strong> MOU and bring it<br />
back to <strong>the</strong> Committee and Council.<br />
Oswald questioned if <strong>the</strong>re was discussion at <strong>the</strong> time <strong>the</strong> MOU was approved on <strong>the</strong> types <strong>of</strong><br />
surfacing and materials used. Lecker noted <strong>the</strong> MOU requires <strong>the</strong> project to prepare a<br />
detailed report on <strong>the</strong> project, including types <strong>of</strong> materials, long-term maintenance needs, etc.<br />
to be presented to <strong>the</strong> Committee and Council for <strong>the</strong>ir approval before <strong>the</strong> project can begin.<br />
The MOU is a starting point for <strong>the</strong> project, but <strong>the</strong> Committee and Council will have ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
opportunity to approve <strong>the</strong> details <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> project before any work begins.
Croatt questioned Camacho’s understanding <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> process. Camacho stated he worked with<br />
<strong>the</strong> Valley New School 6 years ago to develop a list <strong>of</strong> “pillars” and some members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
Council stated it was necessary to give <strong>the</strong> group some “artistic liberties” to make <strong>the</strong> project<br />
happen.<br />
Croatt felt it was important to get <strong>the</strong> Police Department’s perspective on this project since it<br />
could give some members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> community <strong>the</strong> impression that graffiti was acceptable in<br />
this location.<br />
Lecker stated he would work with Camacho to revised <strong>the</strong> MOU and bring it back to <strong>the</strong><br />
Committee for review.<br />
d. Reid Golf Course Participation Report for April 2011. (Attachment D)<br />
Lecker noted <strong>the</strong> rounds for <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> May 2011 are down significantly from 2010 due to<br />
<strong>the</strong> wet and cold spring. He also distributed a financial statement that showed both <strong>the</strong><br />
revenues and expenses. Revenues are down about $50,000 and expenses are down about<br />
$30,000.<br />
Croatt questioned what was being done to address <strong>the</strong> revenue shortfall. Lecker stated <strong>the</strong><br />
Fore! Reservation system was installed at <strong>the</strong> golf course this week and should be operational<br />
shortly. The system will allow golfers to register for tee times electronically. The system<br />
will also allow <strong>the</strong> staff to market specials, programs, activities, etc. to <strong>the</strong> golfers whose<br />
contact information is in <strong>the</strong> system. A seasonal position has also been assigned to work on a<br />
limited basis with <strong>the</strong> clubhouse manager to develop golf specials, events, etc. to promote <strong>the</strong><br />
golf course and hopefully address <strong>the</strong> impact <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> slow spring.<br />
e. <strong>City</strong> Center Studio Use and Program Review.<br />
Lecker introduced Yvonne Monfils, Program Supervisor with <strong>the</strong> Parks and Recreation<br />
Department. Monfils provided a report on <strong>the</strong> studios and programs on <strong>the</strong> second floor <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> Center. The report noted <strong>the</strong> current program use <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> studios continues to grow<br />
and <strong>the</strong> current studio space is no longer sufficient to meet <strong>the</strong> growing program needs.<br />
Monfils also noted <strong>the</strong> current lease for <strong>the</strong> studios is scheduled to expire at <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> 2011<br />
and <strong>the</strong> floors in <strong>the</strong> studios need to be replaced, so <strong>the</strong> Department has been negotiating with<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> Center on a lease agreement for <strong>the</strong> current space and also consideration for<br />
additional space.<br />
Lecker stated <strong>the</strong> Department will continue to work with <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> Center on negotiations for<br />
studio space and will bring an agreement back to <strong>the</strong> Committee for review and approval.<br />
The Department will also provide background information on <strong>the</strong> budget impact, including<br />
revenues and expenditures, opportunities for use <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> space by o<strong>the</strong>r community groups<br />
and/or organizations, cost comparisons, etc.<br />
f. Presentation <strong>of</strong> 2011 Summer Playground Programs<br />
Lecker introduced Niki Wendt, Program Supervisor with <strong>the</strong> Parks and Recreation<br />
Department. Wendt provided <strong>the</strong> Committee with information about <strong>the</strong> summer playground
programs that she supervises for <strong>the</strong> Department. The programs include <strong>the</strong> summer<br />
playground program, Playground Fair, Children’s Week activities, and <strong>the</strong> “On <strong>the</strong> Hill”<br />
program. The presentation included a brief report on staff orientation, program attendance,<br />
and community benefits. The Committee thanked Wendt for her presentation.<br />
g. Director’s Report.<br />
Lecker distributed a report that showed program registrations through <strong>the</strong> end <strong>of</strong> May are<br />
slightly ahead <strong>of</strong> 2010. Walk-in registrations are lower than 2010, but online registrations<br />
are higher, indicating more people are taking advantage <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> online registration capabilities.<br />
Lecker stated <strong>the</strong> Department will continue to track this information and will report back at<br />
future meetings.<br />
Lecker also reported a meeting was scheduled for May 31 to discuss <strong>the</strong> future <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> skate<br />
park project in <strong>Appleton</strong>. The only attendees were Alderperson Croatt and Martin. The<br />
invitation had been sent to those previously involved in <strong>the</strong> project. Lecker stated he would<br />
schedule ano<strong>the</strong>r meeting to determine what kind <strong>of</strong> support is available in <strong>the</strong> community to<br />
develop a skate park. There does not appear to be any question that a skate park is a need in<br />
<strong>the</strong> community, but Lecker noted it is important to convene a group <strong>of</strong> individuals who are<br />
interested in working with <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> to develop a skate park. Both Metille and Wahl stated<br />
<strong>the</strong>y have constituents interested in <strong>the</strong> meeting and would request that future meeting<br />
notices be sent to <strong>the</strong>m so <strong>the</strong>y can pass <strong>the</strong> information along to <strong>the</strong>ir constituents.<br />
ADJOURNMENT.<br />
Motion was made by Oswald, seconded by Mettille to adjourn. (4/0).<br />

ACTION ITEMS<br />
a) Request to approve 2011-2012 AFSCME Waste Water Union contract with a 0%<br />
increase for 2011 and 1.5% increase for 2012. (ATTACHMENT)<br />
Staff Representative Scoon addressed <strong>the</strong> committee and stated that <strong>the</strong> last few months<br />
<strong>the</strong>re has been a lot <strong>of</strong> focus on Madison and <strong>the</strong> BRB. She is requesting that <strong>the</strong><br />
committee divorce <strong>the</strong>mselves from what has been happening at <strong>the</strong> State. The union<br />
made concessions that go beyond <strong>the</strong> Valley Transit settlement. It is unknown at this<br />
time, whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong> BRB will become law. If <strong>the</strong> Council values <strong>the</strong>ir employees, <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong>y<br />
should walk <strong>the</strong> talk and support <strong>the</strong> employees by approving this contract. AFSCME<br />
President Terry McKee also addressed <strong>the</strong> committee and stated that he is <strong>the</strong> president <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> local for Waste Water, Water and CBM and has been with <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> for 33 years. He<br />
indicated that this was <strong>the</strong> most difficult bargain he has been through. He feels <strong>the</strong> union<br />
addressed <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s financial issues and made concessions on overtime, etc… and feels<br />
this is an acceptable settlement for <strong>the</strong> Union. Committee <strong>the</strong>n went into Closed session<br />
and reconvened for fur<strong>the</strong>r discussion on <strong>the</strong> Tentative Agreement. Director Neisen<br />
handed out <strong>the</strong> contract costing sheet and walked through <strong>the</strong> document with <strong>the</strong><br />
committee.<br />
Motion to approve Jirschele/Hill
Approved 5-0<br />
b) #9-R-11/Clemons-“Resolved, that <strong>the</strong> Human Resources Committee review and<br />
recommend to full Council a complete succession plan as it relates to <strong>the</strong> “temporary” fill<br />
in for Department Head and Management level positions. The committee should also<br />
define “temporary”.<br />
In addition, <strong>the</strong> committee should review and recommend compensation levels and <strong>the</strong><br />
policy defining how <strong>the</strong>se positions are filled.”<br />
Chairperson Konetzke asks Alderperson Clemons if he would like to discuss his<br />
resolution. Alderperson Clemons feels it’s self-explanatory. He has worked for large<br />
and small employers that operate under what <strong>the</strong>y call <strong>the</strong> “Hit by a bus” <strong>the</strong>ory. In o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
words, <strong>the</strong>y have a succession plan in place and when someone leaves, <strong>the</strong>re is a plan as<br />
to who steps in. He was also surprised that <strong>the</strong> Mayor hadn’t discussed interim pay<br />
before appointing someone. If <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> has gaps in <strong>the</strong>ir succession plans, <strong>the</strong>y should<br />
formalize <strong>the</strong>m…it can happen to anyone at anytime. Wants to know what <strong>the</strong> plan looks<br />
like. <strong>City</strong> should plan, and anticipate ra<strong>the</strong>r than react. Also questions why Chief was<br />
out and someone else was taking his position at APD…doesn’t make sense to him.<br />
Agrees that some positions, Council has no say over such as Police and Fire. Council<br />
should have a copy <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> succession plans. Chairperson Konetzke asks committee what<br />
o<strong>the</strong>r information would <strong>the</strong>y want to see to help make a decision on this item.<br />
Alderperson Stueck would like to see a flowchart showing both long-term and short-term<br />
process. Chairperson Konetzke asked if a hiring timeline might be helpful. Alderperson<br />
Jirschele said a if this/<strong>the</strong>n that flowchart would be helpful. Director Neisen handed out<br />
<strong>the</strong> Recruitment and Selection Policy and pointed to a couple <strong>of</strong> sections that deal with<br />
Temporary and Interim appointments. She also handed out a copy <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Salary<br />
Administration Policy for some guidelines on pay adjustments. Alderperson Clemons<br />
asked that Director Neisen bring forward copies <strong>of</strong> all existing succession plans for all<br />
management level positions and to bring forward some recommendations on factors that<br />
go into establishing interim pay. Director Neisen will compile information and bring it<br />
back in one month to committee. She also indicated that you can’t prepare for every<br />
contingency and how can Council tell <strong>the</strong> Mayor who to appoint? Item will come back to<br />
Committee on July 11.<br />
Motion to hold for one month Stueck/Jirschele<br />

INFORMATION ITEMS<br />
a) Recruitment Status Report (Attachment)<br />
Director Neisen indicated <strong>the</strong>y have a full report. First page is positions that are being<br />
worked on and <strong>the</strong> second page is positions that are being held for various reasons such<br />
as reviewing o<strong>the</strong>r alternatives, or reviewing for budget, trying to look at o<strong>the</strong>r ways <strong>of</strong><br />
getting <strong>the</strong> work done, etc…<br />
b) BRB/Transition Team update (Attachments).<br />
Director Neisen said she attached a copy <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> first two communications that were sent<br />
to <strong>City</strong> employees so that Committee and Council could see <strong>the</strong> kinds <strong>of</strong> communications<br />
<strong>the</strong>y have been putting out to employees and so <strong>the</strong>y could see <strong>the</strong> kinds <strong>of</strong> questions<br />
employees have with <strong>the</strong> uncertainty at <strong>the</strong> State. While her <strong>of</strong>fice does not always have<br />
answers for employees, <strong>the</strong>y are trying to share what <strong>the</strong>y know to keep employees<br />
informed. She also indicated that <strong>the</strong> Supreme Court was hearing oral arguments on <strong>the</strong><br />
BRB but <strong>the</strong>y did not have any idea <strong>of</strong> timeline for a decision. Still a lot <strong>of</strong> unknowns at<br />
this time. Attorney Totzke said no o<strong>the</strong>r legal updates on <strong>the</strong> BRB. Director Neisen gave<br />
a brief update on Transition Team work and that <strong>the</strong>y were meeting again later in <strong>the</strong><br />
week to try and finalize some decisions pending <strong>the</strong> BRB passage.<br />
c) Negotiation update<br />
AFSCME WW contract before <strong>the</strong>m tonight. She will be mediating with AFSCME-<br />
Water tomorrow. They have a tentative agreement on Master items with Teamsters and<br />
are continuing to meet on <strong>the</strong> supplemental agreements for Teamsters.<br />
d) Meeting minutes issue city-wide<br />
Director Neisen indicated that on average, those departments that responded, have<br />
indicated for every one hour committee meeting, two hours is spent on meeting minutes.<br />
At an average clerical hourly rate <strong>of</strong> $20.49 at time and one half ($30.74), two hours<br />
costs <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> $61.48 per committee meeting. She multiplied <strong>the</strong> $61.48 by 11 standing<br />
committees-she used Library Board, S&L, Finance, HR, Community & Economic<br />
Development, Fox Cities Transit Commission, Utilities, Municipal Services, Board <strong>of</strong><br />
PW, P&R and <strong>City</strong> Plan-which resulted in an average cost <strong>of</strong> staff time just for minutes<br />
<strong>of</strong> approximately $1350/month. Committee agrees that minutes are important but feels<br />
<strong>the</strong>y need to be balanced with staff time. The Committee would like to have staff pursue<br />
audio/video recording options. Attorney Totzke indicated that she was on <strong>the</strong> Committee<br />
<strong>the</strong> Mayor put toge<strong>the</strong>r to look at recordings and she indicated that <strong>the</strong> indexing <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
audio and video is what gets pricey. Committee would like staff to look at options with<br />
and without indexing. Director Neisen indicated that she has spoken with Interim<br />
Director Walsh and <strong>the</strong>y will look at after TS is able to get through some higher priority<br />
items.<br />

Konetzke, Alderperson Martin<br />
MEMBERS EXCUSED: None<br />
OTHERS PRESENT: <strong>City</strong> Assessor DeAnn Brosman, Director <strong>of</strong> Facilities, Grounds &<br />

General Manager Deborah Wetter<br />
Chair Baranowski called <strong>the</strong> meeting to order at 5:01 p.m.<br />
Motion to approve <strong>the</strong> minutes <strong>of</strong> May 25, 2011 by Croatt, second by Konetzke. (5/0)<br />
Baranowski introduced Hea<strong>the</strong>r Acker from Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, LLP to present <strong>the</strong><br />
2010 Comprehensive Annual Finance Report.<br />
Ms. Acker thanked <strong>the</strong> Committee for <strong>the</strong>ir time. She stated her main message was that it was a<br />
very successful audit with very good results. She is happy to report that this independent<br />
auditors report is an ‘unqualified’ or ‘clean’ report, which is <strong>the</strong> highest level <strong>of</strong> assurance that<br />
her company can provide on <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s financial statement. She pointed out a new standard that<br />
required <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> to pick up intangible assets, computer s<strong>of</strong>tware, etc. as capital assets. This new<br />
standard was successfully implemented by <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> and reflected in <strong>the</strong> report. She suggested if<br />
<strong>the</strong> Committee did not want to read <strong>the</strong> entire report, <strong>the</strong>y should concentrate on <strong>the</strong><br />
Management’s Discussion and Analysis section, which summarizes <strong>the</strong> high level transactions <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> during 2010. This piece is written by <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s management. She also discussed <strong>the</strong><br />
trends in <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s finances and noted <strong>the</strong>re is a lot <strong>of</strong> stability. She pointed out <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> is<br />
above <strong>the</strong> GFOA recommended minimum on <strong>the</strong> level <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> general fund balance as a<br />
percentage <strong>of</strong> expenditures. The <strong>City</strong> is also a notch ahead <strong>of</strong> similar-sized communities.<br />
Director Remiker added that when looking at <strong>the</strong> GFOA minimum you have to take into<br />
consideration that that is a national recommendations and when you look at <strong>the</strong> State <strong>of</strong><br />
Wisconsin, you have to take into consideration <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> receives 90% or so <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> state aids in<br />
<strong>the</strong> middle <strong>of</strong> November. She pointed out <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> operates an entire year before <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> gets<br />
funding. Intergovernmental revenue makes up about 35% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> general fund. She feels it is<br />
more applicable to compare <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> to <strong>the</strong> median <strong>of</strong> what is being seen in this area.<br />
Ms. Acker stated <strong>the</strong>y have clients that range from very low percentages, below <strong>the</strong> GFOA<br />
recommended minimums to some that actually have a whole year <strong>of</strong> fund balance on hand.
Finance Committee<br />
Minutes <strong>of</strong> June 8, 2011<br />
Page | 2<br />
What is important is <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> is adhering to a range and a policy that <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> wants to be at,<br />
establishing working capital accordingly and monitoring <strong>the</strong> results throughout <strong>the</strong> year.<br />
Ms. Acker discussed <strong>the</strong> Outstanding General Obligation Debt next. Set by State Statutes, <strong>the</strong><br />
debt capacity is limited to 5% <strong>of</strong> total equalized value. The <strong>City</strong> is currently at 16% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> state<br />
debt policy, which is a very healthy number. Baranowski asked if <strong>the</strong> comparison was State <strong>of</strong><br />
Wisconsin only, and Ms. Acker confirmed yes. Ms. Acker said our trends are very good and<br />
stable numbers, what you want to see.<br />
Ms. Acker moved on to <strong>the</strong> analysis <strong>of</strong> how much is spent on debt service compared to operating<br />
budget <strong>of</strong> all governmental funds. The <strong>City</strong> is below <strong>the</strong> maximum <strong>of</strong> (20% ) <strong>of</strong> where you<br />
would want to be. Ms. Acker stated she is seeing <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> as being better than average in those<br />
numbers.<br />
In summary, Ms. Acker stated <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> is really very stable, and had good results. She said once<br />
again this year <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> was successful in achieving no material weaknesses or significant<br />
deficiencies in internal control as part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> audit. She said this is a very commendable result<br />
and she only issues three <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>se on average in a year to her clients and its very rare. Ms. Acker<br />
also commended Director Remiker and her staff as being very prepared and having everything<br />
asked for. This makes <strong>the</strong> process run very smoothly.<br />
Martin commented that credit goes to Director Remiker and her team and it shows that <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong><br />
is keeping <strong>the</strong> ship steady in this very difficult time.<br />
Baranowski stated it is always a pleasure when every year you see favorable information. He<br />
stated a lot <strong>of</strong> credit goes to Finance, but department heads as well and understanding <strong>the</strong><br />
budgetary process and <strong>the</strong> strong financial concerns <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong>. A lot <strong>of</strong> credit also<br />
goes to <strong>the</strong> current Council and past Councils for taking on <strong>the</strong> recommendations that may have<br />
been put forth by staff and sticking tight to <strong>the</strong>m. He stated it doesn’t get any easier, but yet<br />
sticking to <strong>the</strong> guns proves a very successful audit, even with all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> changes in regulations,<br />
etc. This is a big credit to <strong>the</strong> Finance staff.<br />
ACTION<br />
a. Request to deny Claim for Recovery <strong>of</strong> Unlawful Taxes for <strong>the</strong> property <strong>of</strong><br />
LaManz Hair Design and Body Centre, 10 East College Avenue, for $714.00<br />
(ATTACHMENT)<br />
Dannecker moved, seconded by Konetzke to approve <strong>the</strong> denial.<br />
Baranowski stated <strong>the</strong> property owner appears to have been well informed by <strong>the</strong><br />
communications with staff. He asked for any suggestions as to why <strong>the</strong> owner may not have<br />
wanted to appear.<br />
Brosman answered that she believes <strong>the</strong> owner is aware he doesn’t qualify for a refund.

Motion to approve by Martin, seconded by Konetzke to approve and record <strong>the</strong> park and rec<br />
donations by Goodwill for Miracle League fields.<br />
Remiker stated that on <strong>the</strong> amended agenda <strong>the</strong>re is also ano<strong>the</strong>r item; <strong>the</strong> neighborhood<br />
stabilization program. As far as <strong>the</strong> Miracle League, Remiker went on to say that even though<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> didn’t receive cash in, we still have to record this in <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s financials as a donation<br />
and <strong>the</strong> value <strong>of</strong> everything received. As far as <strong>the</strong> Neighborhood Stabilization Program, <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>City</strong> was able to receive an additional $35,000 as pass through funds to <strong>the</strong> Housing Partnership.<br />
She said this is a great opportunity to receive some more money related to some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> housing<br />
foreclosures and dealing with that in our community.<br />
Baranowski asked about any state implications with <strong>the</strong> pass through funds in terms <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>’s<br />
spending restraints.<br />
Remiker responded it could, depending on how it is handled, but at this time she had no<br />
concerns.<br />

b. Legal Updates<br />
Walsh said we have tried to keep everyone apprised <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fox River, because that has <strong>the</strong><br />
potential to have a huge impact depending on how <strong>the</strong> courts rule. What kind <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r matters<br />
does <strong>the</strong> Committee want to be apprised <strong>of</strong>.<br />
Baranowski stated mostly bigger issues have been talked about and at one point received a report<br />
from Risk in terms <strong>of</strong> claims that were filed and how <strong>the</strong>y were solved but that was mostly from<br />
a monetary aspect.<br />
Walsh responded he would anticipate continuing that.<br />
c. Downtown Trolley Contract<br />
Wetter stated this was an FYI item. Baranowski stated he thinks this is something that<br />
everybody looks forward to and is a good service.<br />
d. Maintenance Update – Park Facilities<br />
Gazza stated he brought this forward to make <strong>the</strong> Committee aware <strong>of</strong> some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> deferred<br />
maintenance. He said <strong>the</strong> job <strong>of</strong> his department is to predict and minimize expenses and proactive<br />
maintenance is one way to minimize expenses. He stated <strong>the</strong>re is a need for some catch<br />
up in some areas and some deferred maintenance. He asked what is <strong>the</strong> best way to fund this.<br />
Baranowski asked if all <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> items brought forth are related to park facilities and Gazza<br />
confirmed yes.<br />
Baranowski asked Lecker how <strong>the</strong>se things were handled in <strong>the</strong> past, was it more maintenance or<br />
more ad hoc maintenance.<br />
Lecker responded that in <strong>the</strong> past <strong>the</strong>y had a budget to work within and tried to work in <strong>the</strong><br />
budget as best as <strong>the</strong>y could, understanding that in <strong>the</strong> last number <strong>of</strong> years, <strong>the</strong> maintenance<br />
budgets have continued to go down. They had less resources to do things. He said every year<br />
you looked at what had to be done and you set your priorities based on <strong>the</strong> resources that you had<br />
available, understanding that things come up throughout <strong>the</strong> year.<br />
Baranowski stated he asked <strong>the</strong> question because when Gazza came on board with <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>, he<br />
prioritized and did an assessment <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> assets. He added Gazza came forward with a list <strong>of</strong><br />
items that needed to be done. He wondered if taking <strong>the</strong> same type <strong>of</strong> approach into <strong>the</strong> budget<br />
process would be a good way to get <strong>the</strong>se things done.<br />
Gazza responded that this idea is what he and Remiker discussed.
Finance Committee<br />
Minutes <strong>of</strong> June 8, 2011<br />
Page | 5<br />
Gazza said his staff would chip away at <strong>the</strong> highest priority items and keep <strong>the</strong> Committee<br />
informed as to what <strong>the</strong>y are getting done with <strong>the</strong>ir quarterly reports.<br />
Baranowski stated at budget time this committee discusses park and rec and it’s always about<br />
cutting programs, but said people will not sign up for programs if <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> has facilities that are<br />
below an adequate standard.<br />
e. Budget Instructions<br />
Remiker said this was basically a disclosure <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> instruction sheets that go out to <strong>the</strong><br />
department heads and <strong>the</strong>ir budget staff as <strong>the</strong>y are putting budgets toge<strong>the</strong>r. This year, a little<br />
bit unusual, Finance is not having staff work so specifically on personnel at this point in time.<br />
She said in <strong>the</strong> past <strong>the</strong>y have put out payroll projections but had to change <strong>the</strong>m because <strong>the</strong>y<br />
didn’t have <strong>the</strong> WRS rates, didn’t know health insurance rates, etc.<br />
Baranowski asked if <strong>the</strong>re were any o<strong>the</strong>r major changes in <strong>the</strong> budget process.<br />
Remiker replied <strong>the</strong>re are some processes staff is going through looking for potential reductions<br />
or changes in service to <strong>the</strong> budget. She went on to say that <strong>the</strong> Committee has already seen<br />
some <strong>of</strong> that such as <strong>the</strong> yard waste site. She stated <strong>the</strong>y will see some more coming. Staff is<br />
working through that process a little bit different than last year. She stated she is a little<br />
concerned, taking a look at that list and based on where <strong>the</strong> State budget is at right now that we<br />
will o<strong>the</strong>r areas or look at service reductions not being considered at this point to balance <strong>the</strong><br />
budget.<br />
Remiker said if you are not going to consider tax increases, you’re limited without going to<br />
referendum, that <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> has some work cut out for us.<br />
Baranowski questioned if Remiker was still going to look at doing some educational sessions<br />
depending on what <strong>the</strong> state outcome is. He said he knows it was a lot <strong>of</strong> work last year, but<br />
feels it was really informative, not only for council for most importantly for <strong>the</strong> employees as<br />
well as to why some o<strong>the</strong>r proposals were being set forth.<br />
Remiker stated right now <strong>the</strong>re are three educational sessions set up next week that is mainly for<br />
supervisory staff. They will get some feedback from those sessions. After her conference call<br />
today, she noted <strong>the</strong> word is <strong>the</strong> State fully expects to have a budget within a week or two. Some<br />
changes have been made, but it remains to be seen what <strong>the</strong> outcome <strong>of</strong> those will be. She stated<br />
<strong>the</strong>y still have to fund how <strong>the</strong> changes are going to occur. Some changes have been made to<br />
shared revenues, unfortunately that is very little relief to <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>. From a WRS perspective, it is<br />
predicted at this point with some certainty that management sworn staff at police and fire will<br />
also be exempt from WRS, which was not <strong>the</strong> case originally.

Remiker stated <strong>the</strong> recycling looks like it is being put back in for next year’s budget. She feels<br />
she will know where we stand from a State budget standpoint within two weeks and that will<br />
clearly delineate <strong>the</strong> work for <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>.<br />
Baranowski recognized Jirschele in <strong>the</strong> audience. He asked if Remiker had a working<br />
presumption how extensive <strong>the</strong> gap is going to be.<br />
Remiker responded she did not feel comfortable yet making that prediction and is still working<br />
on <strong>the</strong> financial analysis <strong>of</strong> this. At this point in time, departments are still analyzing some <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong> ideas that came up. She said it is going to be prioritization and choices moving forward.<br />
f. Discussion on 2010 year-end undesignated fund balance ($486,439.93).<br />
Remiker explained she wants to get some sort <strong>of</strong> direction on this item. She stated policy says<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> should use 75% for <strong>the</strong> reduction <strong>of</strong> long term debt (that is ei<strong>the</strong>r pay <strong>of</strong>f some<br />
outstanding debt or use to fund <strong>the</strong> capital program for 2011). 25% is subject to Finance<br />
Committee recommendation. She said <strong>the</strong> Committee has some options and did provide some<br />
things for <strong>the</strong> Committee to be cautious <strong>of</strong>. She also stated right now <strong>the</strong> estimate is about a<br />
$1.8 million shortfall. She believes 2012 and 2013 will still be very difficult years for <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong>.<br />
If she were to make a recommendation today, it would be to put all <strong>the</strong> money aside to deal with<br />
some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> anticipated short falls for <strong>the</strong> future. She stated it’s tough for <strong>the</strong> Council to make<br />
decisions now for example related to <strong>the</strong> railroad crossings, what is going to happen in<br />
November? She said debt is at a manageable level and some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> larger CIP projects are not<br />
going to happen in 2011. She did not put this on as an action item because she is looking for<br />
some input from <strong>the</strong> Committee.<br />
Remiker asked <strong>the</strong> committee to not lose sight <strong>of</strong> some <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> really good things that have<br />
occurred in our community. We tend to forget about <strong>the</strong>m and focus on <strong>the</strong> negatives. Foremost<br />
Farms was a huge deal in this community and rarely mentioned. She asked if <strong>the</strong>y knew how<br />
much time was spent on that deal and how much additional stimulus loan funding industry in our<br />
community was able to take advantage <strong>of</strong>. She reminded many affordable living jobs were<br />
created from this expansion.<br />
Jirschele talked about tactical efforts and asked if <strong>the</strong>re is an overall strategy on where to cut<br />
costs. Remiker stated we go back to our mission statement, our strategic objectives that have<br />
guided us this far. We need to take a look at things and Council will have to make some tough<br />
choices. There are going to be some that aren’t happy no matter what choice is made.<br />
Konetzke said he was going to try to find a way to not pay down debt with it and to reserve <strong>the</strong><br />
dollars, he’s glad Remiker brought that forward. He would be in favor <strong>of</strong> seeing <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> hold all<br />
dollars for carry over for budget purposes.

Remiker said staff is in <strong>the</strong> information ga<strong>the</strong>ring stage right now on many o<strong>the</strong>r items. Some<br />
things are not ready to be disclosed yet. There’s a lot to put toge<strong>the</strong>r and people are working<br />
really hard to get to Council as quickly as possible.<br />
Remiker stated <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> has a contingency fund, but this is on top <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> funds set aside for state<br />
budget situation. She would never make a recommendation to use <strong>the</strong> contingency fund to<br />
balance <strong>the</strong> budget.<br />
Baranowski stated his concern about not paying <strong>of</strong>f debt is how would Moody’s look at that and<br />
impact on our rating.<br />
Remiker stated <strong>the</strong>y have to continually monitor <strong>the</strong> situation as far as what’s being borrowed<br />
and what’s being paid <strong>of</strong>f, but at this time, it would have no impact on our rating.<br />
Baranowski stated he doesn’t want to micro-manage, but wants to be educated. He needs<br />
guidance from Remiker, because <strong>the</strong>y (Council) are not <strong>the</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essionals.<br />
Remiker stated in order to put this on as an action item, she wanted some in put on what to focus<br />
her time on as its limited and didn’t want to waste hours on something not interested in. She said<br />
<strong>the</strong>re are a lot <strong>of</strong> options and a lot <strong>of</strong> needs, but <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> has to be conservative in looking at it<br />
and planning for future with <strong>the</strong> many unknowns balanced with citizens expectations.<br />
Baranowski stated he doesn’t believe opening this up for anything o<strong>the</strong>r than what was discussed<br />
tonight. What’s <strong>the</strong> best thing for <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Appleton</strong>? He said bring that to Committee and<br />
move forward.<br />
Baranowski asked Remiker if she felt she got <strong>the</strong> direction she was looking for and she did<br />
respond yes.<br />
Baranowski stated this was a good debate for <strong>the</strong> Committee and <strong>the</strong> members <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Council<br />
that in are attendance. This is <strong>the</strong> type <strong>of</strong> debate <strong>the</strong>y should have and he appreciated everyone’s<br />
participation.<br />
With no fur<strong>the</strong>r business, Konetzke moved, seconded by Croatt that <strong>the</strong> meeting adjourn.<br />
