City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender and City Council
From: John Hinzman, Community Development Director
Lonnie Johnson, Building Official
Date: June 3, 2024
Item: 1st Reading: Amend City Code Chapter 34.03 – Fee Schedule – Building Department
Fees
Council Action Requested:
Consider 1st Reading of an amendment to Hastings City Code Chapter 34.03 – Fee Schedule to
modify certain Building Department fees. Upon consideration of 1st reading, 2nd reading, and
final adoption would be scheduled for the June 17th City Council Meeting. A simple majority is
necessary for action.
Purpose of Changes
The proposed amendment is presented to accomplish the following:
• Reduce duplicative permits for a single property by combining separate permits into an
all-inclusive permit for ease of tracking and monitoring.
• Ensure fees adequately cover the cost of staff review. Most fees have not been increased
since 2015.
Summary of Fee Changes
• Minimum Building Permit Fee - Increased from $50 to $100 – This is a “catch all” for
any inspection that does not have a specific permit fee in the code.
• Basement Finish\Remodel – Created an all-inclusive permit combining separate
building, plumbing, mechanical . Permit based on valuation of work. Existing fee is
approximately $325 regardless of size or extent of improvements. New fee would be
approximately $500 - $700 depending on size. A single bedroom would be as low as
$100 with new calculation.
• Decks – Fee to be based on a square foot calculation of the project with a minimum $100
fee. Currently charge a flat fee of $100. The fee for smaller decks is not expected to
change. Larger decks may increase to $166.
• Schedule A – General Construction Permit Fees – New title for fees listed under
“Building Permits”. Project valuations under $25,000 have been streamlined into two
categories with a minimum $100 permit fee (up from $50 for projects under $2,000)
• Schedule B - Building Valuation Worksheet – The amendment includes a building
valuation worksheet for larger permits for various types of work based on valuations for
different types of work. The valuations more closely reflect that of the real market.
VIII-06
• Mechanical Single Family Residential – The all-inclusive permits will include a flat
rate fee for the mechanical portion instead of separate fees for each appliance or ducts.
Plumbing will be similar.
• Mobile Home Installations – Combines separate gas line, water, and sewer connection
permits into an all-inclusive $350 permit. Current combined fees of separate permits are
$250 to $300.
• Establish a Re-Inspection Fee – Staff may assess if work to be inspected requires an
additional scheduled inspection. The $75 fee is an increase to the typical $50 fee.
• Inspection Fees Outside of Normal Business Hours – The existing $200 minimum fee
would continue. Inspections over two hours would increase to $75 per hour from $50 per
hour.
• Pergolas – Eliminated review fee; very uncommon.
• Sewer and Water Connection Inspect Combined – The separate inspection fees have
been combined into a singular inspection. No change in fees.
• Fire Sprinkler and Alarm – Establishing a $50 administrative fee for processing Fire
Department Permits.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers
From: Ryan Stempski, Public Works Director/City Engineer
Date: June 3, 2024
Item: Sewer Lining Agreements
Council Action Requested:
Approve Sewer Lining Agreements
Background Information:
The City received a private Inflow and Infiltration Grant from MCES to line certain private sewer
services. Based on financial eligibility, some owners may be entitled to have the grant cover
100% of the costs and others will qualify for 50% of the costs. There are 9 properties owners
currently in the project, all of whom have agreed to the cost-sharing for lining their sewers.
Instead of bringing these agreements to the Council one-by-one, we are requesting the Council
approve entering into the agreements with the property owners in the project and authorize the
Mayor and Clerk to execute them as the signed agreements are received by the property owners.
The agreement allows the City access to the property for purposes of performing the project,
identifies the cost-allocation for the respective property owner, states that the owner is
responsible for any future maintenance or replacement of the sewer line following the warranty
period, and gives the City the authority to assess the costs against the property as a special
assessment if the owner fails to pay.
A Model Agreement is attached that shows the terms and conditions, but with the details for each
property left blank. This information has been completed and submitted to each owner. The
Council’s approval to authorize signing these agreements as they are executed by the owners
would save time. If any property owners wish to change any terms of the Agreement, either they
will be removed from the project or the agreement will be brought back to the Council separately.

Comprehensive Plan

Zoning
The property is currently zoned R-1 Low Density Residence. A request to rezone the property to
C-4 Regional Shopping Center has been submitted with this application. Retail and service
establishment are a permitted use within the C-4 Zoning District.
Difference between the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning
The Comprehensive Plan serves as a guiding document for future land use for the next 20 years
and includes a Future Land Use Map identifying desired land uses. The Zoning Ordinance is the
legal mechanism for regulating land use and includes the zoning map which identifies zoning
districts and permitted uses. The Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan is used to guide
decisions on rezonings.
Existing Condition
The existing site sits approximately 15-25 feet below the elevation of surrounding properties and
contains a stormwater basin. Existing stormwater flow and future stormwater needs established
through development would both need to be accommodated as part of the future site plan
application. Trees buffer the site to the west and south.

Item: Ordinance Amendment #2024-16– Amend Ordinances: 155 & 91 Keeping of
Chickens in Residential Areas
Planning Commission Action Requested
Hold a public hearing and review the attached amendment proposal to Hastings City Zoning
Code 155 and Animal Code 91, to allow ducks, quail, and additional chickens and make a
recommendation to the City Council.
History
The City of Hastings has allowed the keeping of four chickens since the summer of 2021 on
residential properties. There are currently nine chicken license holders and there has only
been one complaint. Some chickens had gotten out of their yard. The owner was contacted
by code enforcement.
A request has been made to increase the number of chickens from four to six and to allow
ducks and quail. Alternative poultry for backyard chicken flocks are sought for a variety of
reasons. The number one reason is due to chicken egg allergies. Although, cross-reactivity is
common with quail eggs (69%) and duck eggs (66%).1
Research - Ducks
Ducks are starting to be allowed in some cities that have allowed chickens. In most of those
instances, the allowable number of ducks is lower than the number of allowable chickens.
The cities allowing ducks indicated that it was a recent change and there have been few to
no license applications to report on.
Duck facts:
- They are relatively quiet including the drakes (males).
- Messier than chickens, as their excrement is much wetter than chickens.
- Need more space than chickens.
o They nest and lay on the floor rather than a perch.
o They can be larger than chickens.
Planning Commission Memorandum
X-C-02
o More area is needed for waste to dry.
o They don’t require a pond but need bathing water deep enough to submerge
their head.
- Mixing chickens and ducks in the same coop is debatable. It is often done
successfully. The two have different needs but can adapt. They generally wouldn’t
choose to live together, certainly not in the wild.
Research – Quail
Few cities allow quail specifically by name. Some allow them because they are not
specifically prohibited. Most cities that allow quail, do it by allowing poultry in general.
Those cities often subtract out poultry that are not allowed (turkey, guineafowl, etc). Often
those cities have limited numbers of poultry regardless of type. This is very limiting for Quail
since they are substantially smaller than the other poultry.
Quail facts:
- Quail are quiet. Male calls are low and sound like a songbird.
- They and their eggs are small (3-4 = a chicken egg)
- They need to be housed on their own, not as part of a mixed flock.
- They need a fully enclosed house and cage because of their flighty nature.
- Typical housing resembles a raised cage or hutch with a wire floor and an enclosure
with sand or wood shaving/ straw litter. Sometimes people build a netted aviary.
- Total space required is 1.5 square feet each.
Feedback from other cities
Staff reached out to many of the cities allowing ducks or quail. The response was uniformly
that there have not been any issues, but that they have few to no license holders other than
for chickens. Most of the allowances were new and there were only a small number of or
no citizens that had ducks or quail. Some cities require applicants to choose chickens or
ducks, but most don’t address cohabitation. Typically, cities only allow one coop.
The city of Cottage Grove Code Enforcement Officer said there aren’t any licensed ducks
yet. Based on her experience growing up with chickens and ducks, she believes they should
not cohabitate and too many ducks will cause an odor issue.
A city of Minneapolis animal control service representative said with a tier I permit, they
allow up to 6 fowl including chickens and ducks. He said they have not had any issues that
couldn’t be rectified.

Oakdale 6 Poultry 4 SF/ bird coop, 10 or 16 SF run
Baudette 12 birds total, 6 may be chickens coop/ run area 10 SF per chickens and
2 SF for quail
Staff recommendation
There have not been ongoing issues with the four chickens currently allowed in Hastings.
While allowing up to four chickens is the most common among other cities, many have
increased their allowance to six or more. Current regulations require four square feet per
chicken for coop sizing and eight square feet for the run. This is on the higher end for
chickens, but on the low end for duck coops and very low for duck runs. A higher ratio is
more critical in this climate where they will be coop bound more often. Staff is proposing to
allow less ducks than chickens due to a higher likelihood of smells and their need for more
space. Staff is also proposing to not allow for keeping of both chickens and ducks at one
property. Two separate coops facilities will clutter yards and be esthetically detracting.
Forcing animals from different orders to live together doesn’t seem ethical, even if it works.
Staff is also proposing to not allow duck ponds or kiddie pools for duck features. Swimming
water is not necessary and raises concerns as stagnant water that would breed mosquitos,
smells, and bacteria. Quail hutches are small and can be easily screened making them very
compatible on a residential lot, even in addition to chickens or ducks.
The attached ordinance amendment proposal includes changes to the existing keeping of
chickens regulations, which were adopted in 2021. Below is a summary of substantive
changes.
X-C-02
1. Allow up to 6 female chickens (from 4)(no ducks).
2. Allow up to 3 female ducks (no chickens).
a. No ponds or kiddie pools allowed.
b. Coop minimum of 5 square feet per duck and runs of 15 square feet per duck
(slightly more than for chickens 4 & 8 SF).
3. Allow up to 10 quail. 1.5 square feet each.
a. Quail hutch/ cages must be screened and meet property line setbacks
4. The use of keeping chickens is currently listed in the R-1 district, which automatically
caries over as allowable in the other residential districts (R-1L, R-2, R-3). It is also
listed individually under each of those districts. These redundant listings are
proposed for deletion. This proposed change only serves to clean up the ordinance.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers
From: City Administrator Dan Wietecha
Date: June 3, 2024
Item: PFAS Update
Council Action Requested:
Informational memo, no action requested at this time.
Background Information
Hastings has PFAS contamination all six of our municipal wells (specifically PFOA in all six
wells and PFOS in two wells). The City has completed a Feasibility Study to consider
alternatives to mitigate the PFAS. The study recommended construction of three decentralized
water treatment plants for PFAS and Nitrates. The construction cost estimate is $68.9M, and the
City has been exploring and pursuing multiple opportunities to offset this “budget buster”
expense.
Key Updates
State Capital Budget: The City has submitted PFAS Treatment & Raw Water Lines for
consideration in the State’s 2024 Capital Budget due to the budget-busting expense, the fact that
the treatment is to remove contamination/pollution caused by others, and the suddenness of new
regulations preventing financial planning. Sen. Seeberger and Rep. Hudella have indicated
support and introduced SF 3161 and HF 3115.
The legislative session ended May 20 without passage of a bonding bill. We will need to weigh
options either to proceed at ratepayers expense without state assistance or to delay the project in
hopes of other funds coming through. In either case, we will continue to seek assistance (several
exampled are listed below) as well as renew our State Capital Budget Request for next session.
Congressionally Directed Spending: On April 26 and 29, we submitted requests of Senator
Klobuchar, Senator Smith, and Representative Craig for $10.3M (50%) of the first phase of the
project. This amount is higher than typically funded.
X-E-01
Conversations with staff for Senator Klobuchar and Congresswoman Craig have been
supportive. A decision on Congressionally Directed Spending (also known as Community
Project Funding) could occur between summer and October.
PPL/IUP: In 2023, the City submitted the project for the State’s Drinking Water Revolving
Fund Project Priority List (PPL). On May 1, 2024, we re-submitted to correct errors which will
result in our ranking at or near the top of the list. Additionally, we will submit the first two
phases of the project for the Intended Use Plan (IUP) in early June. Although the Drinking Water
Revolving Fund is not our preferred funding source, it has the possibility of a $3M Emerging
Contaminants Grant for each phase.
Water Rates: As we begin budget planning for 2025 (including a workshop on June 3), we will
need to discuss potential water rate increases, phasing, and timing.

Item: Tennis Sanitation Contract
Council Action Requested:
Approve Second Extension to City of Hastings Residential Solid Waste and Recycling Collection
Contract with Tennis Sanitation, LLC.
Background Information:
In a series of contracts since January 2013, the City of Hastings has contracted with Tennis
Sanitation for exclusive residential solid waste collection. The current contract was the result of a
bidding process during 2018. The base three-year contract ran from January 2019 through December
2021; it includes a provision to renew it for up to two, 3-year extensions through December 2027. In
2021, the City Council approved the first extension running January 2022 through December 2024.
The Utilities Committee of Council (Lawrence*, Leifeld, and Vihrachoff) met April 29 to consider
the second extension running January 2025 through December 2027. They recommended the
extension, specifically noting that Tennis is a local company, has demonstrated exceptional customer
service and responsiveness, and their current 2024 rates are still lower than the two competitor
proposals we received in 2018.
Financial Impact:
Not applicable.
Committee Discussion:
Utilities Committee met 4/29/24 and recommended approval.
