Proclamation
Proclaiming February 2025 As Black History Month
In the City of Hastings, Minnesota
WHEREAS, Black History Month is celebrated to raise awareness of African American accomplishments and
contributions to our society, AND
WHEREAS, African Americans are part of Minnesota’s story, from before it was a territory to the present, AND
WHEREAS, the first Minnesota territorial census in 1857 recorded four African American men living in Hastings,
including Robert Burns, a barber, who with Andrew Jackson Overall and J. H. Brooks worked as a committee to draft
a petition to further their rights to vote, which was presented to the legislature of Minnesota in 1865, AND
WHEREAS, both houses of the legislature passed a bill that proposed an amendment to strike “white” from the
suffrage provision. The amendment was adopted in 1868 by a majority of more than 9,000 votes, becoming law in
Minnesota two years before the 15th Amendment passed nationwide, AND
WHEREAS, George Daniels was an enslaved African American man who freed himself during the Civil War by
crossing battle lines to join Union troops. In the process, he and Brevet Brigadier General LeDuc became acquainted
and built a strong, trusting relationship. Daniels moved to Hastings where he lived and worked alongside LeDuc,
married Chloe Hudson, and started a family, AND
WHEREAS, the story of George and Chloe Daniels is not unique and represents other African American families that
found their way to the Hastings area following the Civil War, AND
WHEREAS, In the early 1890’s, the Curry and Wallace families organized other African American community
members to establish Brown’s Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church, which served as the center of religious
and social activities for African Americans, until it was destroyed by arson in 1907, resulting in the eventual exodus
of African Americans from Hastings, AND
WHEREAS, recent Census data show that the number of African American residents in Hastings has increased in the
past decade, Hastings continues to strive for racial equity to provide a healthy community for all, and the City Council
has made diversity, equity, and inclusion an important part of its work, AND
WHEREAS, the importance of observing Black History Month in the City of Hastings is to acknowledge, recognize
and welcome people of African descent and their contributions to the City of Hastings, while simultaneously
recognizing the injustices they have endured, AND
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that I, Mary Fasbender, Mayor of the City of Hastings, Minnesota and
the Hastings City Council hereby proclaim February 2025 as Black History Month in Hastings, Minnesota.

reviewed background on the site and shared the City signed a purchase agreement dated November 20,
2024, with the owner to acquire the property at this location. Wietecha reviewed the plan to assist the two
tenants in the building with relocation services. The grant agreement puts the City in position to get
reimbursed for the purchase price and tenant relocation expenses specific to the site. The City is
concurrently completing a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment for due diligence in advance of closing
on the property, with results expected in early February 2025. Wietecha indicated the MPCA will
reimburse the City for the purchase price of $1,025,000, as documented in the purchase agreement, in
addition to the relocation fees and services estimated at $415,000 subject to reasonable and necessary
expenditures. The total obligation of the Grant Agreement will not exceed $1,440,500, unless amended.

No Council discussion.
Councilmember Leifeld motioned to approve as presented, seconded by Councilmember Pemble.
6 Ayes, 0 Nays.
2024 Community Development Annual Report
Hinzman provided a summary of the 2024 Annual Report highlighting construction, planning,
and economic development activities.
Council expressed appreciation for the depth and breadth of the report to understand the work of
the Community Development department. Council posed questions on how a business opens in the City.
Hinzman indicated there are a few scenarios, sharing he connects the business owner with the Open to
Business program if they need assistance. Hinzman shared the permitted uses within the zoning ordinance
is very generalized and does not regulate the number of a certain type of entity. Council posed questions
regarding the statistical decline in new townhome development. Hinzman indicated he posed similar
questions to land developers and received responses that land prices in Hastings are less expensive than in
other Cities. Hinzman shared most consumers prefer to not have adjoining walls, which has driven growth
in villa homes. Council encouraged connection with the Building Department and Community
Development Department to provide support to new businesses. Council posed questions on the overall
process for block development as the City owns most of Block 28. Hinzman indicated staff is informally
meeting with developers that specialize in mixed use projects. Hinzman shared HEDRA and Council
would review proposals and enter a development agreement to secure the site and provide for the
development to take place.
Chapter 112 – Tobacco Regulations
Councilmember Leifeld requested that this topic be added to the agenda for this meeting. Upon
Council support to add, Leifeld indicated an interest in a conversation that may be directed to the Public
Safety Committee (Leifeld, Lawrence, Vihrachoff). The conversation was sparked by discussion on social
media, regarding the number of tobacco shops within the City. State law does not limit tobacco licenses
within a municipality.
Council expressed general support of further discussion at the committee. Council clarified they
do not discourage businesses from operating within the City but want to be mindful of Council’s role in
shaping the City. Wietecha provided clarification of the variety of liquor license types as certain types do
not apply to the state law limitations.
Councilmember Leifeld motioned to refer topics for discussion to the Public Safety Committee,
seconded by Councilmember Vihrachoff.
5 Ayes, 1 Nay (Pemble)

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Council Members
From: Cody Mathisen – City Engineer
Date: February 3, 2025
Item: Accept Feasibility & Assessments Report, and Order Public Hearings for Project Scope and for
Assessments – 2025 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements
Council Action Requested:
Enclosed for Council consideration is a resolution accepting the Feasibility & Assessments Report, ordering
public hearings, and declaring the amount to be assessed for the proposed 2025 Neighborhood
Infrastructure Improvements project.
Background Information:
The 2025 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements project includes a variety of improvements on a
total of 7 City Streets. A map of the project identifying streets to be reconstructed or reclaimed is
included in the attached Feasibility & Assessments Report.
A complete reconstruction of the street would include replacement of base material, new pavement,
and new curb and gutter. Also included is sanitary sewer main replacement, replacement of the water
main, replacement of sanitary sewer and water services, pedestrian ramp improvements, and storm
sewer extensions, repairs and replacements. The streets to be reconstructed are:
• 1st Street W– Farm Street to CSAH 42
• Farm Street
• Fraiser Street
• State Street – 1st Street W to 7th Street W
A reclaim would involve grinding up and recycling the existing pavement and gravel of the street to
make a new base, followed by spot replacements of concrete curb and gutter and new pavement. Also
included in the reclaim improvements are rehabilitation of water system valves, localized storm sewer
extensions, repairs and replacements, and pedestrian ramp improvements. The streets to be reclaimed
are:
• 1st Street W – Pleasant Drive to Farm Street
• 1st Place
• Olive Street
• Prairie Street – 2nd Street W to Trunk Highway 55
It is also worth noting that the project is proposing the construction of a new pedestrian sidewalk along
the north side of 1st Street W.
VIII-06
A public hearing on the scope and features for the 2025 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements
project will be held on March 3rd, with an assessment hearing for this project being held on April 7th.
Financial Impact:
The project has a total estimated cost of $4,515,000, including design and other project delivery
overhead costs. The street, storm sewer, and surface restoration costs of the project estimated at
$3,050,000 will be funded through bonded debt and special assessments to the benefitting properties.
The total amount anticipated to be collected by special assessments is $724,213.
Sanitary sewer and water system costs will be funded by separate bonding (Utility Revenue Bonds) in
the estimated amount of $1,465,000 ($520,000 for sanitary sewer and $945,000 for water). Please note
that the sanitary sewer and water system costs are not included in the attached resolution as they are
not included in the special assessments (Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429). The project continues to
track with the City’s approved funding parameters for 2025.
Council Committee Discussion:
Staff met with the Operations Committee on December 9, 2024, to discuss the recommended project
scope and proposed assessment amounts. The Committee was supportive of the project
recommendations and directed Staff to obtain feedback from the residents.
A notice was mailed to each property owner to make them aware of the project website that includes a
presentation and additional resources. The property owners were strongly encouraged to visit and view
the website and to call Engineering Staff to provide their comments and ask questions. An open house
was also conducted at the Hastings YMCA (near the project area) on January 23rd to provide another
way for affected residents to get their questions answered.
To date we have connected with approximately 27 out of 98 property owners via these phone calls,
mail-in surveys, online surveys, and the open house which is approximately 28% of properties affected
by the project. There has been general support from the discussions we’ve had during the public
outreach period for the proposed improvements as recommended in the Feasibility & Assessments
Report.
The Council will be provided a fully detailed report and presentation on all design features,
neighborhood feedback, cost and funding mix, project construction timelines, and project
communications in a memo preceding the March 3rd City Council Meeting.

This is a Statement of Special Assessments against your property. The total assessment that is being
applied on your property is: $X,XXX.XX
NO PAYMENT WILL BE ACCEPTED BY THE CITY FOR THESE ASSESSMENTS UNTIL
SEPTEMBER 1, 2025.
If the entire assessment is paid on or before October 31, 2025, it can be paid without interest or a $60.00
per assessment Dakota County Certification Fee. Payments through October 31, 2025 are to be made at
the City Hall, 101 E. 4th Street, Hastings, Minnesota. Make checks payable to the City of Hastings. Office
hours are 8:00 A.M. to 4:30 P.M. Monday through Friday.
If the assessment is not paid on or before October 31, 2025, then a $60.00 per assessment certification
fee will be added to the assessment total and the assessment may be paid in 10 annual installments
with interest at (Rate TBD) per annum. The remaining amount will also then appear on your Dakota
County Property Tax Statement as a Special Assessment, beginning in the Spring of 2026. The first
year’s interest will run from December 1 to December 31, 2025, and for the entirety of each calendar year
thereafter until paid in full. The law provides that unpaid assessments become a lien against the
property.
Please note that the City Council adopted a policy authorizing the deferral of special assessments for
eligible senior citizens, disabled, or military persons that is based on income. If you are a senior citizen,
disabled or a member of the National Guard who has been deployed and the first year’s installment of the
special assessment, either alone or together with the installments of any other special assessments due
against your property totals more than one percent (1%) of your Adjusted Gross Income, then you are
likely eligible for the deferment. The deferment does not forgive the assessments but delays payment,
with interest, until certain events occur, such as when the property is sold. If you believe you may qualify
for a deferral due to your income, an application form is available at the City Clerk’s office or online on the
City’s website. The application does not need to be filed now but will need to be submitted prior to
November 1, 2025.
If you have any questions about your assessment, please contact the Hastings Engineering Department
at (651) 480-2334.
If you intend for the assessment to roll over to the Dakota County Property Tax Statement, please check
with your mortgage company to see if this payment is being held in an escrow account.
PLEASE RETURN THIS STATEMENT WITH YOUR PAYMENT IF YOU ARE PAYING
ALL OR PART OF YOUR ASSESSMENT PRIOR TO OCTOBER 31, 2025

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Council Members
From: Ryan Stempski, P.E. – Public Works Director
Date: February 3, 2025
Item: Accept Proposal and Authorize Work – Conduct Phase II Environmental Assessment of 1292
North Frontage Road
Council Action Requested:
The Council is requested to authorize a contract with WSB for conducting a Phase II Environmental Site
Assessment (ESA) of 1292 North Frontage Road.
Background Information:
To continue with due diligence for the purchase of the Central WTP site (1292 North Frontage Road), the
City Council authorized a Phase I ESA at the January 6th City Council Meeting. The Phase I ESA has been
completed and recommends a Phase II ESA to investigate the identified Recognized Environmental
Conditions (RECs). The Phase II ESA would include the collection of environmental samples for
laboratory analysis in accordance with the anticipated site plan. If contamination is found within the
redevelopment area, a Development Response Action Plan will need to be prepared and approved by
the MPCA Brownfields Program prior to site development. Once authorized, WSB estimates a draft
report to be provided within sixty days.
Financial Impact:
The estimated cost of $19,880 for these services will be fully reimbursed by the MPCA Planning and
Design Grant. The work will be completed on a time and material basis.

Re: Scope of Work and Cost Estimate – Phase II Environmental Site Assessment
Proposed Hastings Wastewater Treatment Plant #2
1292 North Frontage Road
Hastings, MN 55033
Dear Mr. Stempski:
As requested, outlined below is a scope of work and cost estimate to complete a Phase II
Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) at 1292 North Frontage Road in Hastings, Minnesota
(Site). The Site is currently developed as a commercial building, housing a pizzeria, dance
studio, and an empty office space. WSB completed a Phase I ESA report for the Site dated
January 23, 2025 (2025 Phase I ESA) which identified the following recognized environmental
condition (REC) and one Business Environmental Risk (BER) associated with Site:
• REC-1: Petroleum Leak Site (LS0016266)
• BER-1: Potential for asbestos and regulated materials in structure
WSB understands a new wastewater treatment plant is proposed at the Site which will include
demolition of the existing Site building and construction of a new building that will measure
approximately 110’ x 140’, as well as a stormwater retention pond and the installation of two
underground backwash tanks.
The purpose of the Phase II ESA is to determine if the REC identified in the 2025 Phase I ESA
resulted in soil and/or soil vapor impacts at the Site requiring special management during
redevelopment. Groundwater is anticipated to be at a depth of 35 feet or greater and the
collection of groundwater samples is not included in this investigation. WSB understands the City
of Hastings (City) will use the Phase II ESA report for environmental planning and budgeting
purposes. The following tasks are proposed as part of this scope of work:
SOIL BORINGS
WSB will advance push-probe soil borings at the Site and collect soil and soil vapor samples for
laboratory analysis. The proposed locations are shown on the attached Figure. The soil boring
activities will include:
• Complete private and public utility locates.
• Advance up to eight mechanical push-probe borings to 12 feet below grade for the
collection of soil samples.
• Advance up to one source soil vapor boring to eight feet below grade and up to three
receptor soil vapor borings to a depth of four feet for the collection of soil vapor samples.
• Screen soils using a photoionization detector (PID) equipped with a 10.6 eV lamp.
• Record general soil classifications/observations on a field log.
• Seal borings per Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) requirements.
SOIL, GROUNDWATER, AND SOIL VAPOR SAMPLING
WSB will collect soil and soil vapor samples during the assessment. Up to two soil samples may
be collected from each boring for laboratory analysis. Two samples will be collected from a boring
VIII-07
Mr. Ryan Stempski
January 30, 2025

if there is evidence of contamination. Otherwise only one sample will be collected from that
boring. The samples will be collected in accordance with Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
(MPCA) guidance and analyzed by the laboratory under a 7-10 business day standard turnaround
timeframe. The samples will be analyzed for compounds commonly associated with the RECs
identified in the 2024 Phase I ESA and in general accordance with MPCA Guidance documents.
The soil and soil vapor samples collected from the borings will be submitted to an MDH-certified
analytical laboratory for analysis of the following:
Soil
• Diesel range organics (DRO) by the Wisconsin Modified Method (up to 20 samples)
• Gasoline range organics (GRO) by the Wisconsin Modified Method (up to 20 samples)
• Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by EPA Method 8260D (up to 20 samples)
• Lead by EPA Method 6020B (up to 20 samples)
Soil Vapor
• VOCs by EPA Method TO-15, full scan (up to 4 samples)
• Fixed gases (methane, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) via either EPA Method 3C or ASTM
method D1946
REPORTING
WSB will summarize the results of the Phase II ESA in a final report. The report will include the
following:
• Scope of work
• Sample location map
• Sample methods and procedures
• Results tables and comparison to applicable criteria
• Investigation results
• Recommendations (if requested by the City) and Conclusions
• Boring logs and laboratory analytical reports as attachments
ASSUMPTIONS
The following items are assumed for this scope of work:
• Site access will be facilitated by the City.
• Up to two remote meetings with the City to discuss the work and results are included.
• Groundwater is not encountered during boring advancement at the Site. If groundwater is
encountered, WSB will contact the City to discuss the collection and analyses of
groundwater samples.
• The soil and soil vapor borings will be completed at exterior locations.
• The estimated cost includes up to eight borings, 16 soil samples and four vapor samples
for the proposed analyses.
• The estimated cost does not include EDGE/EQuIS data submittals to the MPCA. This
may be required if the Site is enrolled into the MPCA Brownfield Program and can be
done at that time.
• We understand the proposed new building footprint totals approximately 15,400 square
feet. If the building plans change at the time of the investigation, the number and
locations of soil vapor borings may need to be revised.
• The City will provide WSB with electronic building/construction plans prior to drilling to
ensure the soil and soil vapor borings target the proposed building footprint and
excavation areas.
• WSB will contract an analytical testing firm for soil and soil vapor analysis.
• WSB will contract an environmental drilling firm to complete the soil and soil vapor
borings and the field investigation work will be completed in two days.
VIII-07

• Laboratory samples will be analyzed under a standard 7-10 business-day turnaround
timeframe.
• The Phase II ESA will be limited to the scoped boring locations and the magnitude and
extent of contamination (if discovered) may not be defined.
• A final report will be delivered within two weeks of receiving laboratory analytical results.
• The City will provide one round of review/comment of the report.
ESTIMATED COST
The estimated cost to perform the above-described Phase II ESA is $19,880. The work will be
completed on a time and materials basis in accordance with the attached 2025 Rate Schedule.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender and City Council Members
From: David Wilske, Chief of Police
Date: February 3rd, 2025
Item: Gores Pool #3 Wildlife Management Area
Council Action Requested:
Request Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) provide 200 foot buffer for three affected
addresses in the City of Hastings.
Background Information:
The City of Hastings entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the DNR in 2008. This
MOU allowed for hunting within city limits for small game, Wild Turkey, and archery hunting for deer.
The 2008 MOU agreed that a 200-foot buffer would be instituted for two properties during a special
deer management hunt. The DNR has never instituted a special deer hunt for this area. The two
addresses identified in the 2008 agreement were: 1621 4th St. East and 2900 4th St. East. An additional
home was built after the original MOU and this address is 2925 4th St. East. All three of these homes are
next to Gores Pool #3 hunting lands and have legitimate safety concerns.
The Hastings City Council requested the Public Safety Advisory Commission review this issue and provide
recommendations. The Public Safety Advisory Commission completed their review and made a motion
to approve the Hastings City Council requesting a 200-foot buffer from the DNR of the three affected
properties. The motion passed and a memo is included from the Public Safety Advisory Commission
Board Chair.

To : Chief Wilske
Hastings Police Chief
From: Theresa Auge`
Chair of the Public Safety Advisory Commission
Subject: Gores Pool #3
On January 16, the PSAC reviewed a presentation of Gores Pool #3. (The Hastings City Council
received the same presentation.) It was at the request of the City Council to review this topic, and if
appropriate make a recommendation to the council.
The commission discussed the property owners’ concerns, the Memo of Understanding between
the DNR and the City of Hastings. We reviewed the geographic map. Our discussion supported the
idea that we, PSAC, make a recommendation to City Council to pursue the 200’ foot buffer between
the property line and the approved hunting land mentioned in the original MOU. Increase signage
concerning the properties: 1621 4th Street East, 2925 4th Street East, and 2900 4th Street East. The
following action was taken.
A motion was made by Commissioner Sherry and second by Commissioner Braun to encourage
the City Council to request the 200’ buffer for these three properties located within Gores Pool #3.
The motion passed unanimously.

City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers
From: City Administrator Dan Wietecha
Date: February 3, 2025
Item: PFAS Update
Council Action Requested:
Informational memo, no action requested at this time.
Background Information
Hastings has PFAS contamination in all six of our municipal wells (specifically PFOA in all six
wells and PFOS in two wells). We’ve also now found PFOA levels over the EPA’s limit in the
future Well No. 9 site. 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 Nitrate removal.
The general plan is to build one WTP per year for three years. The central WTP is expected to
bid in May 2025, start construction in August 2025, and substantial completion in December
2026. The eastern WTP would bid in January 2026, and substantial completion October 2027.
Finally, the western WTP would bid January 2027, and substantial completion October 2028.
These dates are approximate, but the point is that one WTP per year leaves little room for
compliance with the EPA deadline of April 2029.
The current construction cost estimate is $68.9M with expectation to trend higher. Without
financial assistance, water rates would need to double in three years and triple in five years. The
City has been exploring and pursuing multiple opportunities to offset this “budget buster”
expense.
Key Updates
State Capital Budget: The City 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 indicated support
X-E-01
and introduced SF 3161 and HF 3115. The legislative session ended May 20, 2024, without
passage of a bonding bill.
In October 2024, we met with Sen. Pappas, Chair of the Senate Capital Investment Committee,
to provide an update on our project and funding needs. The City Council approved a resolution
of support on the December 2, 2024, a new state application has been submitted, and new bills
will be needed once the new legislative session opens January 14, 2025.
Clean and safe drinking water was identified as the City Council’s number one legislative
priority during its workshop on November 16, 2024. With recent approval of a $3M Emerging
Contaminants Grant, we have been able to reduce the amount of this bonding request to $16.6M
for the eastern WTP. We plan to include the interconnect of the Minnesota Veterans Home with
this phase of the project.
In January 2025, both Sen. Seeberger and Rep. Dippel have indicated strong support for our
project. Sen. Seeberger is reported preparing two bills: one seeking $16.6M in the capital budget
and the other $16.6M as a general cash appropriation to fully fund the eastern WTP. Rep. Dippel
is reported preparing three bills: one seeking to designate Hastings as eligible for funding
through the East Metro’s 2018 3M Settlement and the other two seeking to fully fund the
remaining $45.7M costs for all three WTP’s, one through the capital budget and the other as a
general cash appropriation. I have not seen the actual language in these bills, so details may
differ from what I have here.
It is vitally important to have support from both of our legislators and that they work together.
Congressionally Directed Spending / Community Project Funding: In April 2024, 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.
All three advanced our request to their respective Appropriations Committees; however, it was
not approved through the Senate Appropriations Committee. As it worked through “mark up” by
the Appropriations Committees, it is now proposed at a little over $1M. This is a first step and
not a final decision. Senator Smith’s office said that they hope that by March 14, 2025, Congress
will have agreed to a full-year budget for FY25 that includes CDS projects. Awards are not final
until Congress passes and the President signs a full-year budget.
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 and to
recognize new EPA regulations of MCLs for PFAS, which will result in our ranking at or near
the top of the list. Additionally, we submitted the first two phases of the project for the Intended
Use Plan (IUP) in June 2024. Although the Drinking Water Revolving Fund is not our preferred
funding source, its application is the venue for the Emerging Contaminants Grant.
X-E-01
The Public Facilities Authority has listed the eastern WTP is ranked 2nd and central WTP appears
ranked tied at 13th on the PPL and both projects are in the “fundable – emerging contaminants”
category. Both projects are scheduled to receive $3M Emerging Contaminants Grant ($6M total).
Although this is a state program, I believe the funds may have originated as federal assistance. If
so, these may be impacted by recent intentions to freeze federal grants.
Water Rates: With budget planning for 2025 (including workshops on June 3, June 17, and
September 3, 2024), we discussed potential water rate increases, phasing, and timing. During the
preliminary budget planning, we anticipated a 37.3% increase in water rates for 2025.
During our October 21, 2024, meeting, following Co-Trustee approval of 3M Settlement Funds
for Well #5, the City Council supported a two-step water rate increase in 2025, with a 10%
increase effective January 1, 2025, and a second increase to be determined effective July 1, 2025.
On an average residence using 15,000 gallons per quarter, the January increase would be about
$4 per quarter. City Council approved the January increase on December 16, 2024.
Additional increases are expected to coincide with construction of each of the three WTPs. In
total, rates would double in three years and triple in five years without financial assistance.
3M Settlement: The 2018 Settlement Agreement provides grant money for drinking water
projects “in the East Metropolitan Area.” It is not limited to any specifically named cities or
townships and does not require a direction connection to one of the 3M disposal sites. Similarly,
Minnesota’s Conceptual Drinking Water Supply Plan does not require a direct connection to one
of the disposal sites. However, the State’s Co-Trustees (MPCA and DNR) have stated that a
direct connection should be required and has previously excluded Hastings from funding under
the Settlement Agreement.
Although we disagree with the Co-Trustees’ interpretation, we value our relationship with them
and have endeavored to not have this disagreement come between our mutual efforts. The
MPCA has been helpful in conducting Phase I and II environmental site assessments, requesting
3M to conduct additional investigation of its disposal site and hydraulic modeling in the Hastings
area, and has awarded a planning and design grant for Hastings to begin design engineering for
the treatment plants.
Additionally, the 2007 Consent Order does require a direct connection to one of the East Metro
disposal sites. This is extra important since the Co-Trustees have acknowledged that the
Settlement Funds will run out as they cover currently proposed East Metro projects, so they will
be transitioning to the Consent Order in the next couple years.
To date, the environmental studies have resulted in several lines of evidence of a connection of
Well #5 to the 3M Cottage Grove site, specifically: updated Minnesota Geological Survey
X-E-01
mapping of a fault in the bedrock, presence of HQ115/TFSI in Well #5, and additional water
composition and PFOA chemical analyses.
In October 2024, the Co-Trustees agreed that there is a connection between Well #5 and the 3M
Cottage Grove site and that the costs associated with Well #5 (to be treated with the central
WTP) would be eligible for funding under the 2018 Settlement Agreement. We estimate the
costs associated with Well #5 to be $14.5M, but that amount has not yet been reviewed or
approved by the Co-Trustees. In November 2024, we submitted our first application for
Settlement funds to cover the cost of land purchase and business relocation necessary for the
central WTP. The City Council approved the grant agreement at its January 21 meeting.
In the meantime, the environmental investigations will continue as planned by the MPCA to
determine connection and eligibility for the City’s other wells.
Central Water Treatment Plant: During our October 21, 2024, meeting, the City Council
agreed to flip the sequence of the construction schedule: proceed with the central WTP in 2025
and delay the eastern WTP until 2026.
Proceeding with the WTP that has significant outside funding has two major advantages. 1) It
would mean a smaller water rate increase for our residents and businesses. 2) It gives us
additional time to seek state bonding, grants, and/or direct connection to 3M Cottage Grove
before proceeding with the other WTPs.
At our November 18, 2024, meeting, the City Council approved a purchase agreement for 1292
North Frontage Road as the site for the central WTP. This location is in a non-residential area, is
located next door to the existing nitrates treatment facility and ground storage reservoir, and has
lower incremental costs than other sites. Additionally, timing and ability to proceed without
delay were important considerations. Pending environmental review, we hope to close on the
purchase early in 2025. A Phase II environmental assessment is recommended for approval
during the City Council’s February 3 meeting. After the 3M Settlement grant agreement is
approved, SRF Consulting will assist with business relocation analysis for the two businesses
currently at this location.
We have begun Geotechnical Investigation and Topographic Survey to design the new site
location for the central WTP with the WSB team that conducted the work on eastern WTP site
already. WSB has been cost effective and efficient with the work due to their expertise,
understanding of scope, close coordination with the City, flexibility on direction, and
responsiveness to listen and meet the City’s needs. Continuing with the team that has developed
the water system modeling, WTP Siting Study, and treatment plant design specific to Hastings
eliminates re-work and a learning curve that would add more expense and time to the project.
At present, we anticipate final design could be completed and ready to bid by May 2025.
