## Introduction / Background / Justification / Key / Legal Issues:
Well House #1 is located at 12320 Riley Avenue and was constructed in 1976. The well-house is located
on the same piece of property as the Carl E. Johnson Park. Well House #1 contains wells 2 and 4, which
account for approximately 850 gpm of production when they are both running. Well 4 is the largest
producing well in the City of Becker water distribution system. Due to the production that well 4 can

## 11003, City Council Action From, Rev. 2, 05/09/22
provide, being without well house #1 for a long period of time or during the summer irrigating months
would be a situation city staff want to avoid.
Because the well house and much of the equipment in it are 50 years old, it is time to update the facility
to avoid an unscheduled failure that could cause a water emergency for the City of Becker.
The SLA from SEH would be for design work that outlines the well house update project and would
produce plans and specifications that the city can take out for bids when the timing is right. The project
is anticipated to address aging process, electrical, controls, HVAC, and building systems to improve
reliability, maintainability, safety, and long-term operational performance. Bidding assistance and
project management would be part of a future SLA once the city is ready to move forward with this
project. Timing is critical as the city’s water distribution system cannot function during summer
irrigation months without Well 4/Well House #1.
By doing the design work now, the city will have the flexibility to execute this project as soon as the
timing is right and as this project works in parallel with the Water Treatment Plant project.
## Board Commission / Committee Action:
This project has been discussed with the Public Works Committee and the full Council during an
executive session.
## Budgetary / Fiscal Impact:
The cost for the design work outlined in the SLA will be covered by funds from the Water CIP.
## Action(s) Requested:
1. Motion and second to approve Resolution 26-67, a Resolution authorizing staff to accept and
execute a Supplemental Letter Agreement with SEH for the design work for the Well House #1

## Consent Agenda: Yes No X
## Introduction / Background / Justification / Key / Legal Issues:
The Sherburne County Sheriff’s Office operates an Emergency Response Unit (ERU), which is a team of
deputies that have enhanced training for response to situations that pose a high risk or involve firearms.
Since inception, all members of the ERU have been deputies employed by the Sherburne County
Sheriff’s Office. In late 2025 discussions began with other local municipal police departments about
opening up ERU spots to other agencies. Over the course of this year, I have met with the commander of
the ERU team and representatives from Sherburne County and Big Lake to create a joint powers
agreement (JPA) that would allow for officers from the Becker Police Department to apply to be on the
ERU team.
The JPA establishes guidelines for how the team is organized, selection process, training and uniform
requirements, call out procedures, financial information and liability. Should an officer from the Becker
Police Department apply for a spot on the ERU team they would have to complete the required
selection tests and be approved by the Chief of Police and ERU commander. The officer would be under
the command of the ERU team during training and call outs, but all pay, benefits and insurance would be
provided by the City of Becker. The ERU team operates under a standard operating procedures
document.
This is a benefit to the Becker Police Department as it allows for another specialty position which can be
used for hiring and retention, it builds relationships with the Sheriff’s Office and the ERU team and any
member(s) that are on the ERU team will have advanced training and skills that they can bring back to
the department to share with others or use on calls for service that don’t reach the threshold of an ERU
call out.
## Board Commission / Committee Action:
Police Committee has been involved in the discussion and supports the JPA coming to council.
## Budgetary / Fiscal Impact:
While there is no cost to have an officer on the ERU team, the specialized equipment for each officer will
cost approximately $11,000 and there will be some additional overtime costs depending on callouts.
Should we have an officer selected we would use funds from our “tools and equipment” CIP for all
required equipment and labor costs would come from wages.

## 1. MISSION STATEMENT:
Recognizing that the presence of a highly trained, highly skilled law enforcement tactical unit has
been shown to substantially reduce the risk of injury or loss of life to citizens, police officers and
suspects; and recognizing that a well-managed "team" response to critical incidents usually results
in successful resolution of critical incidents, it is the intent of the Sherburne County Sheriff’s Office
## ERU Multi-Agency Agreement
Page 2 of 14
(SCSO), Big Lake Police Department (BLPD), Becker Police Department (BPD) and all other
parties to this agreement to work together to provide a highly trained and skilled tactical team, as
a resource for those law enforcement agencies who need assistance with critical incidents.
The purpose of this agreement is to establish the governing provisions in the selection, training,
equipping, activating, and use of the Sherburne County Multi Jurisdiction Emergency Response
Unit (ERU).
## 2. DEFINITIONS:
Sherburne County Multi Jurisdiction Emergency Response Unit (ERU): A designated unit of law
enforcement officers and specialized support personnel, including a multi-jurisdictional team,
whose members are specifically recruited, selected, trained, equipped, and assigned to resolve
critical incidents involving a threat to public safety, or otherwise are so hazardous, complex, or
unusual that they may exceed the capabilities of traditional law enforcement first responders or
investigative units.
Party: A government unit (a County or City on behalf of a law enforcement agency) that is a party
to this agreement.
Agency: The law enforcement agency of an individual government unit.
ERU Member: An individual person assigned to the ERU.
## 3. MISSION:
The mission of the ERU is to save human life by supporting the jurisdictions within Sherburne
County with a tactical response to critical incidents, and to aid other agencies outside of Sherburne
County requesting mutual aid assistance from the ERU. Critical incidents include, but are not
limited to, hostage situations, barricade situations, active shooters, hostile event response,
terrorism style attacks, high risk apprehension, high risk warrant service, VIP or personal
protection, and other special assignments or operations.
## 4. COMPOSITION AND STRUCTURE:
## Composition of ERU
The ERU is composed of the following elements:
• Sheriff’s Office Commander of Operations (Administrative oversight)
## • Team Leader
## • Assistant Team Leaders
• Operators (to include Entry Team, Reaction Team, Containment or Perimeter)
• Snipers
## ERU Multi-Agency Agreement
Page 3 of 14
## Structure of ERU
The ranking ERU member is the Commander of Operations, followed by the Team Leader. These
positions constitute the primary leadership positions within the ERU and will be held by SCSO
staff. The Sherburne County Sheriff will appoint the Commander of Operations. The Commander
of Operations will appoint the Team Leader.
All other positions may be held by law enforcement officers employed by parties to this agreement.
Selection will be made according to ERU policy and standard operating procedures (SOP). Final
selection will be approved by the Commander of Operations.
## 5. COMMAND AND CONTROL STRUCTURE:
The ERU is managed by the SCSO. When activated for an operation, the Commander of
Operations, Team Leader, or Assistant Team Leader (when the ranking member is absent) reports
directly to the on-scene supervisor. The Commander of Operations is responsible for deployment
of the ERU and its assets, all tactical decision-making, and the tactical resolution of the incident.
The Commander of Operations or designee will control all aspects of an operation including how
it will be performed. During the incident, the Commander of Operations will maintain open
communication with the scene supervisor of the respective agency where the incident is occurring.
No other person, who is not in a leadership position within the ERU, will attempt to direct,
supervise, or control any element or member of the ERU.
ERU members become subordinate to the Commander of Operations, Team Leader, and Assistant
Team Leaders until the ERU’s ranking member determines that the activation is over. In the
absence of ranking members during operations, the most senior member present will assume
control to ensure continuity of command during operations until relieved by a more ranking ERU
member.
## 6. POLICY & POLICY CONFLICT:
## Policy
ERU members will comply with the provisions of the Sherburne County Sheriff's Office ERU
policy and SOP, as well as their respective agency's policy and procedural manual. The policy and
SOP will be made available to ERU members on at least an annual basis, and it is the responsibility
of the ERU members to familiarize themselves with both. The policy and SOP may be updated or
amended by the Commander of Operations in consultation with the Team Leader.
## Policy Conflict
In the event of a direct conflict, the policies and procedures of the member’s home agency shall
govern. However, the Commander of Operations or designee shall work with the member’s
## ERU Multi-Agency Agreement
Page 4 of 14
governing authority (Chief Law Enforcement Officer, executive management, etc.) to resolve any
known conflicts that exist between policies and procedures.
## 7. ACTIVATION PROCEDURE:
The supervisor in charge at the scene of a particular event will assess whether the ERU should
respond. Upon final determination, the Commander of Operations, or available command staff
personnel if the Commander of Operations is unavailable, shall be notified.
If the decision is made to not activate, the Commander of Operations or designee will notify the
requesting individual of the decision.
The Commander of Operations or Team Leader will keep a current list of ERU members in the
Sherburne County Dispatch Center. This list will be updated when changes occur so members,
Chief Law Enforcement Officers, and all other necessary personnel are placed on the call-out list.
Requests for assistance from agencies outside Sherburne County will be sent to the Commander
of Operations or available command staff personnel if the Commander of Operations is
unavailable.
## 8. SELECTION AND RETENTION:
Interested licensed personnel who have at least one year of licensed peace officer experience shall
submit a letter of interest to the ERU Team Leader. The Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the
agency shall approve the letter of interest before it is sent to the ERU Team Leader. Qualifying
applicants will then be invited to participate in the testing process. The order of the test will be
given at the discretion of the Team Leader. The testing process will consist of a handgun
qualification, rifle qualification, fitness test, interview, and evaluation in accordance with ERU
Policy and SOP’s. The Team Leader will present the team's recommendation for new members to
the Commander of Operations or designee of the Sheriff for final approval.
Once accepted and assigned to the ERU, all members (except Commander of Operations),
regardless of rank or position, must maintain acceptable standards of performance. This includes
passing firearms and fitness qualifications per ERU SOP. Continual evaluation of an ERU
member’s performance and efficiency as it relates to the positive operation of the unit shall be
conducted by the Team Leader. Any ERU member not meeting the required standards is subject to
removal from the team.
An ERU member may voluntarily withdraw from the team at any time, for any reason. A member
may be removed from the team, when requested by his/her department’s administration, or when
deemed necessary for the good of the ERU by a consensus of the ERU leadership and approval by
the Sheriff.
## ERU Multi-Agency Agreement
Page 5 of 14
## 9. TRAINING STANDARDS:
The ERU will conduct training an average of one, eight (8) hour day per-month. Two months of
each calendar year will involve a forty (40) hour training event in lieu of the standard eight (8)
hour day. Annual training will total at least 160 hours. All agencies will make every effort to ensure
participation of their ERU members in training and team operations. However, it is recognized that
at times all members may not be able to respond to an operation or training due to manpower issues
within their respective agencies.
The ERU will train on appropriate subjects related to the mission of the team. Training will be
performance oriented and ERU task specific. All training will be documented, and training records
will be maintained on file with the Team Leader. Training records will be available to all parties
of this agreement upon request to the Commander of Operations.
It is the sole responsibility of each agency in the agreement to maintain and document POST
required training for their ERU members. Training records will be available to all agencies for
parties of this Agreement upon request of the Commander of Operations.
Training Attendance Requirements.
In general, attendance will be required by all ERU members to be a member in good standing per
this agreement. Under certain circumstances, ERU members may be excused from training by the
Team Leader. ERU members are required to attend at minimum 80% (128 hrs.) of the annual
training hours. Any member unable to meet minimum training standards is subject to removal from
the ERU.
## 10. DOCUMENTATION:
## Mission Planning:
The ERU will utilize a written planning and risk assessment process for all operations that are
proactive or anticipatory in nature, such as high-risk warrant service.
The Team Leader or Assistant Team Leader will log all events and record them in a call-out
summary for all ERU operations and will also cause all planning or decision-making documents
to be recorded. These documents will be stored in a file maintained by the Commander of
Operations or designee. A radio operations log will be maintained during ERU operations when
applicable or possible.
## Activation:
The Commander of Operations and Team Leader will ensure documentation of all activations and
use of the team. The Commander of Operations or designee will establish and maintain a system
of documentation to include a post-incident report as well as supplemental documentation to
include pre-operation planning (Operation Plan) and scouting, briefings, threat assessments, use
of force reports, supplemental narratives, etc. Documentation will provide details of the operation
to include any use of force, property damage, justification for the use of the ERU and pertinent
## ERU Multi-Agency Agreement

operations. Specialty equipment may be shared by parties as they are able. The ERU recognizes,
however, that the use of special equipment in no way implies or guarantees that injury or death
will not occur during ERU operations and training. Specialty equipment includes but is not limited
to the following: entry firearms, sniper rifles, less lethal devices and chemical munitions,
distraction devices, breaching tools, bunkers, armored vehicles, thermal imagers, night vision
equipment, and lasers devices.
Due to the nature of critical incidents and tactical operations, the ERU may also train with and
utilize other special equipment as authorized by the Commander of Operations or other authority.
This special equipment may include but is not limited to: electronic surveillance equipment,
tactical robots, Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) or drones, All Terrain Vehicles (ATV)
or Off Highway Vehicles (OHV), throw phones and other tactical tools, equipment, and options
available to the team during critical incidents.
The Commander of Operations or designee will ensure that ERU members are properly
familiarized and trained in the use of equipment. The Commander of Operations or designee will
be responsible for establishing the certification standards and criteria for the team.

damage or losses were caused wholly or partially by the negligence of any other party or its
officers, employees, or volunteers.

related to this agreement. Sherburne County will establish the fee and notify each party of the fee
by December 1 of the preceding year. The fee is to be paid in January of each calendar year. If a
party fails to pay the fee by February 1 of the applicable year the unpaid member is subject to

All ERU members are considered on-duty by their respective agencies for all ERU training, actual
operations, or other ERU related functions. ERU member’s wages and benefits, such as insurance,
will be covered by their respective agencies at all times. Appointment of personnel as an ERU
member pursuant to this Agreement shall not obligate any Party to pay any premium pay to its
appointed employees except as provided by the collective bargaining agreement between the Party
and its collective bargaining unit.
Each ERU member’s agency will maintain workers’ compensation insurance or self-insurance
coverage at all times while members are training, taking part in operations, or other ERU related
functions pursuant to this agreement. Each party to this agreement waives the right to sue any other
party to this agreement for workers’ compensation benefits paid to its own employee or volunteer
or their dependents, even if the injuries were caused wholly or partially by the negligence of any
other party or its officers, employees, or volunteers.
Each agency who is a party to this agreement shall provide its own liability insurance for their
ERU member(s) while they are performing all ERU functions in or outside of their jurisdiction,

provided, including salaries, overtime, materials and supplies, to the Commander of Operations.
The Commander of Operations shall submit the invoices to the reimbursing entity. The reimbursing
entity shall reimburse Sherburne County for the actual cost, and Sherburne County shall forward

## 14. LIABILITY:
## Municipal Tort Liability
For purposes of determining total liability for damages, the parties are considered a single
governmental unit and the total liability for all parties shall not exceed the limits on governmental
liability for a single governmental unit, subject to the limits of liability under Minnesota Statutes
Chapter 466 and other applicable laws, rules, and regulations, including common law. Under no
circumstances shall a party be required to pay on behalf of itself and other parties, any amounts in
excess of the limits on liability established in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 466 applicable to any
## ERU Multi-Agency Agreement
Page 10 of 14
one party. The statutory limits of liability for some or all of the parties may not be added together
or stacked to increase the maximum amount of liability for any one party pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes §471.59, subd. 1a.
The parties to this agreement agree to defend and indemnify the other parties to the agreement
against claims brought or actions filed by any third person or persons, for injury to, death of, or
damage to the property of any third person or persons, arising from acts of omissions of the
indemnifying party’s officers, employees or volunteers in performance of this agreement,
The intent of this paragraph is to impose on each party a limited duty to defend and indemnify the
other parties for third-party claims arising out of the performance of this agreement, subject to the
limits of liability under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 466. The purpose of creating this duty to
defend and indemnify is to simplify the defense of claims by eliminating conflicts among
defendants, and to permit liability claims against multiple defendants from a single occurrence to
be defended by a single attorney.
No party to this agreement nor any officer of any party shall be liable to any other party or to any
other person for failure of any party to furnish assistance to any other party, or for recalling
assistance, both as described in this agreement.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to provide insurance coverage or indemnification to
an officer, employee, or volunteer of any party for any act or omission for which the officer,
employee or volunteer is guilty of malfeasance in office, willful neglect of duty, or bad faith.
## Charges to the Requesting Party
No charges will be levied by a responding party to this agreement for assistance rendered to a
requesting party under the terms of this agreement unless that assistance continues for a period of
more than 24 hours. If assistance provided under this agreement continues for more than 24 hours,
the responding party may submit to the requesting party an itemized bill for the actual cost of any
assistance provided after the initial 24-hour period, including salaries, overtime, materials and
supplies and other necessary expenses; and the requesting party will reimburse the party providing
the assistance for that amount.
## 15. AGREEMENT:
## Periodic Review:
The Commander of Operations will periodically review and, when necessary, update this
agreement. The Commander of Operations will then cause this agreement to be reviewed and
approved, by signature, by the participating parties.

## Introduction / Background / Justification / Key / Legal Issues:
The Becker Police Department currently has four fully functional patrol rifles with sights that are stored
in the squad cars for use on patrol. The Sergeant squad car and the Chief’s squad car do not currently
have rifles. One of the rifles has an optic that works intermittently and will need repair, and two
additional rifles would need parts and accessories to be ready for patrol.
The current rifles have not met our standards over the years with damaged internal parts, grips
breaking, optics falling off while training etc., and the department needs to add two rifles so that each
squad car has access to one. Due to the issues we have had with the current rifles and optics staff
believes that purchasing six new rifles would better serve the department.
Staff researched common patrol rifle setups and reached out to other agencies to determine what the
best replacement would be. Items considered were build quality, customer service, operator ease of use
and cost. Alex Pro Firearms (APF) was identified as a highly reputable supplier for patrol rifles in
Minnesota. Several agencies recommended them and highlighted their build quality and customer
service. The most common patrol rifle was the Law Enforcement SBR, which is a 5.56 caliber rifle with a
shorter barrel which is beneficial for close quarters work like inside homes and businesses. All of our
current ammunition and extra magazines will work with this rifle. The total cost of the six rifles is $7,200.
The cost of the rifles from APF was in line with other quotes, however the cost for the upfitting of the
rifles with additional equipment was higher than expected. Staff contacted Kieslers Police Supply, who
has supplied our department with firearms in the past to quote out the rifle accessories. Kieslers
provided a much better quote for the accessories and has been a good company to work with for
firearms purchases in the past. Accessories that Kieslers would supply are the red dot optics, sound
suppressor, flashlights and slings. The sound suppressors are a new addition as they have become
common for law enforcement patrol rifles to reduce the risk of noise induced hearing loss in officers.
Kieslers also has a trade-in program which will allow us to trade in our current squad rifles as well as
several very old rifles that have just been stored at the police department and old shotguns that were
converted for bean bag rounds that the department does not use. The cost of all accessories for each
rifle was $6,700.48 and Kieslers offered us $4,270 for trade-in of the old equipment so the cost would be
$2,430.48, bringing the total cost for six new patrol rifles and all accessories to $9,630.48.

positions to 2 full-time coordinators. We would reallocate tasks of the coordinators to support
the additional hours added to the remaining two coordinators. The Position Justification form
attached details on how this restructure would look.
This transition would result in $9,794 savings for the remainder of 2026, and $24,797 savings in
2027.
Two full-time coordinators will have the capacity to work jointly on programming, cover tasks
without gaps, and respond more consistently to operational needs.
This was proposed to and supported by the Personnel Committee on 7/10/26
## Action(s) Requested:
Adopt Resolution 26-68 allowing the Becker Community Center to restructure coordinator roles.

## Type of Request: New Position
If “Other” please specify:
## Rationale for Request: Other
If “Other” please specify:
Restructuring Dept. – Eliminating one position
and consolidating duties.
## Job Title:
## Program Coordinator
## Job Grade / Step: B22 Step 4-5
Type of benefits:
## Full Time, PERA Eligible
Is funding budgeted for this position?
There are currently 3 coordinator roles at the BCC. The cost of the one being eliminated
will be reallocated to the increase in hours for the two that are taking on additional hours
to bring them from part-time to full-time. Partial benefits packages have already been
budgeted for two out of the three program coordinators.
## Business Perspective
Describe the specific need and/or business impact for this requested position.
Currently there are 3 part-time program coordinators at the BCC. One for aquatics,
one for Adventure Zone, and one for Fitness/Special Events. The Adventure Zone
coordinator role is vacant due to a resignation. I would like to reallocate job duties of
the Adventure Zone program coordinator to the other two part time coordinators to
create two full time positions.
The needs of the facility do not warrant filling 3 part-time coordinators (approx. 90hrs
week of work total). Reallocating the job duties to 2 full time coordinators (approx.
80hrs week of work total) will be sufficient to complete the duties of those 3 BCC
departments.
Creating 2 full-time roles also positions the BCC to offer more attractive positions in
the hiring process in the future.
13020, POSITION JUSTIFICATION / SUPPORT FORM, REV. 0, 04/16/2019 2 | Page
There is some seasonal workflow between the busy times of Aquatics and Adventure
Zone that make this transition very reasonable to accomplish. The pool is the slowest
during the summer when AZ is the busiest due to the students being here all day. In
the fall-spring the pool activity picks up but AZ students go back to school and are
only here before and after school hours.
## Staffing Perspective
Describe how the addition of this position will strengthen and/or benefit the department
and City of Becker.
The main benefits of eliminating one coordinator position and creating two full-time
positions with the remaining part time coordinators is efficiency. Both Coordinators will
collaborate on programming and be able to cover tasks effectively. Reallocating job
duties this way is a better use of staffing time
## Customer Perspective
Describe how functions/tasks/projects will be accomplished if the requested position is
not recommended or funded to include a reallocation of work and by whom. Please
provide names and titles of employees, if known.
We will not be adding a position. We will be reducing a position and reallocating tasks.
From my experience the aquatics position does not require a 30hr/wk part time role to
complete necessary tasks. I would be reducing the time needed to complete aquatics
related tasks and consolidating that with the Adventure Zone coordinator role to create
a full-time position.
I would also be moving the Fitness/Special Events Coordinator into a full-time role to
offer additional coverage and support in Adventure Zone as needed. The increase in
hours would also allow for more youth programming opportunities to match our
membership demographics of 33% of members aged 0-18.
We would also focus on hiring a few leads who are highly qualified for their role so that
they can work more independently in ratio with the AZ students without as much
coordinator support and intervention. Allowing the Coordinator more time for
administrative tasks. This would mean we would be paying those leads at a higher step
on the Lead pay scale due to their qualifications.
If the restructuring is not approved, we will end up hiring for a new Adventure Zone
coordinator and maintaining the model of 3 part-time coordinators. We have struggled to
hire and have had turnover due to these positions being part-time and not benefit
eligible. We may continue to have that challenge.
## Analytical Support
List metrics/statistics that support the recommendation and funding of this position; i.e.,
workload, customer response time, customer satisfaction surveys, etc.
The chart below shows how this change will financially affect the current 2026 budget.
This is based on wages/benefit cost for the remaining 5 months of the year. This shows
that by cutting the AZ Coordinator’s wages, and reallocating that toward an increase in
hours and benefits towards the other two coordinators we will see net savings of $9794.
13020, POSITION JUSTIFICATION / SUPPORT FORM, REV. 0, 04/16/2019 3 | Page
The below 2027 budget projections show that we can anticipate an overall budget
savings of $24,797 by moving from 3 part time coordinators to 2 full time coordinators
with benefits.
## Improvements for Future
Describe how you will readily support the business need via an action plan, key
performance indicators, etc. Please provide prior year’s organizational chart and your
future organizational chart.
My career background includes approximately 10 years of overseeing childcare
programs amongst other recreational programming. Including running Adventure Zone
myself in college. My educational background includes extensive child development
courses, education administration, and Community Education programming. Supporting
the Coordinator overseeing Adventure Zone will be something that I can confidently do
with past procedures, documents, problem solving, and connections. Due to my career
and educational background, I can support and guide this transition towards long term
success and development.
It is my plan to continue month leadership team meetings with the BCC leadership team
to collaborate and meet membership needs. Our regular meetings will also be a chance
to share challenges and work towards a solution as a team.
I also would like to give both full-time coordinators more opportunities for professional
development and growth through their respective organizations.

## Introduction / Background / Justification / Key / Legal Issues:
City staff have been working for many years trying to increase the municipal water supply for the city. In
2019, the city purchased land east of town for this purpose. In 2020/2021, the city installed two wells,
wells 7&8. All indications led the staff to think we accomplished the goal. Unfortunately, the iron
present was higher than all initial indications and manganese is also present. The water still met MDH
standards, so we started to pump the wells and add them to the supply lines, CO2 was also present. This
causes the water to appear cloudy and results in an orange appearance. The result is we have not been
able to use the wells.
We worked with our engineers for potential remedies, ultimately landing on the need for a water
treatment plant if we are to bring these wells into service. While the engineers worked on plant
concepts and sizing, staff continued to explore other options for wells. To date, we have spent several
years and financial resources trying to find other suitable options for water within the area. We continue
to come up empty. Low production, similar poor water quality has brought us to the point we are at.
Continuing to push this out will result in the costs continuing to increase. A water treatment plant comes
at a significant cost, but it is the remaining option that will give us real results. The water staff has been
looking for potential additional well sites, and since 2004 we have not added to our water supply while
the continued need and usage increases. Currently, we cannot take a well offline in the summer months
due to demand.
By adding the plant, and treating the wells 7&8, it will give the city some much needed water security
and would allow for future growth. We would recommend we size the plant for growth, being able to
add an additional well or two into the plant.
## Board Commission / Committee Action:
This has been reviewed several times with the Public Works Committee and at Exec Sessions, most
recently at the July PWC meeting with the recommendation given to bring this to the full council for
consideration.

## Budgetary / Fiscal Impact:
The cost of the design phase engineering is set at a cost not to exceed $942,500. This covers preliminary
and final design and includes taking the project through the bidding process. This is proposed to span
into March of 2027 for a proposed bid opening timeframe. We do have some funds available from the
PFAS settlement as well as sufficient reserves in the water fund to fully cover these initial costs.
Staff will work with the Finance Team and likely sessions with the Budget and Finance Committee to
work through the full cost of construction, construction engineering services and getting the Water
Treatment Plant to start up. Information will be shared with everyone at future Exec Sessions in
preparation for the project to be bid and ultimately awarded.
The sources of funds include several options such as rate increases, Water Access Charges, low interest
loans, bonding for the project and potentially internal borrowing from other city reserve funds. The
exact finance plan will be worked on through the rest of this year, with a recommendation provided to
the council in advance of March, 2027. If you vote to move forward with this first phase, we would start
the research into the best funding options for the city both short and long term while getting the design
work completed.
## Action(s) Requested:
1. A motion and second to adopt Resolution 26-66, A Resolution approving a Supplemental Letter
Agreement with SEH for designing a Water Treatment Plant would be appreciated.

## Introduction / Background / Justification / Key / Legal Issues:
As staff has worked through the Edgewood Street Improvements and introduced the LuAnn Drive utility
and road extension, looping the watermain at the north end of LuAnn Drive, on the north side of
Edgewood Street was neglected. I had removed any plans for putting a sanitary line in the project to
serve future development on the farmland north of Edgewood, but the watermain should have been put
in place. With LuAnn Drive being held until next year, this work should be done now so we do not need
to excavate Edgewood Street next year. This will allow LuAnn Drive to be served from both ends, looping
the water lines for the best service for the future residents.
## Board Commission / Committee Action:
This has not been discussed with the Public Works Committee.
## Budgetary / Fiscal Impact:
The cost of the change order is $25,430 and would likely be funded by Water CIP, there is a chance we
would fund it from Streets CIP, but in either case there are sufficient funds to cover the cost.

## CITY OF BECKER
## BUDGET WORKSHOP – SPECIAL SESSION
## JULY 14, 2026
The City of Becker held a special session as a budget workshop on July 14, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.
Mayor Kolbinger and council members Rick Hendrickson, Robin Dingmann, and Becky
Olmscheid were present. Council member Mike Doering was absent. Also present were Greg
Lerud, Phil Knutson, Jacob Sanders, Mark Ebensteiner, Lorrie Franz, Chris Lindbloom,
Shannon Mortenson.
The workshop began at 5:01 PM. Finance Director Mark Ebensteiner provided an introduction
on what would be discussed this evening. The funds to focus on are all for Capital Improvement
Planning for Police, Admin, IT, Public Works, RR Spur and Parks & Trails. There are
spreadsheets that accompany the discussion.
Chief Lindbloom explained the capital purchases forecasted for the police department. Vehicle
replacement is detailed along with body cameras and tasers. Equipment and tools are an
annual allocation of $15,000. Digital equipment is scheduled for 2028.
Mark Ebensteiner reviewed the administration capital improvements. The only major item for
2027 is council chambers refresh and new flooring that was not replaced with the remodel.
Updating the bathrooms is also being considered. There was discussion on when the carpet
was installed in council chambers and the consensus was likely it is original to the building.
Ebensteiner also went through the IT capital plan. There is a very detailed spreadsheet listing all
desktops, laptops, monitors, etc. but a synopsis of replacement was provided this evening. This
is the first year of having a separate Capital Improvement Plan for IT but is necessary to keep
equipment updated.
Phil Knutson went over the Public Works capital planning. Staff have been very thorough
considering equipment replacement and when. Some vehicles have been pushed out for a few
years as they have low miles and are in good condition. They also have looked at attachments
and being sure they purchase the equipment that can be utilized and do not purchase new
ones. The streets office building will have the last phase completed in 2027. Knutson briefly
touched on the railroad spur maintenance. There are annual inspections conducted and that
provides the framework for major repairs. There will be sections to be repaired and ties to
replace in upcoming years. Knutson also explained the parks and trail capital improvements.
Each year the park equipment is inspected to ensure it is safe. When park equipment is
replaced, pieces that are still functional get moved to another park. Snuffy’s Landing is a perfect
example of this. In 2027, it is proposed to put concrete on the outdoor hockey rink and establish
four pickleball courts for summer use. Other cities are doing this concept, and it is viable. There
will be a purchase of a new mower but that may also be configured into Pebble Creek’s
purchases. There are also funds allocated for trail upkeep and laser grade infields at BAC.
Lorrie Franz concluded the discussions with a timeline for the remaining Capital Improvement
Plans and General Budget review. The workshop ended at 6:26 PM.
