Dayrin is purchasing the business from her father, Filemon Sanchez. Dayrin will be the store owner, as well as the main employee. In the application, I observed that Dayrin is married to Joel Segura. The application advised that Joel is not participating in the store business, and is not a co-applicant for the liquor license. I noted on the application that Ramirez Gonzalez disclosed she has been convicted of a traffic violation in/about 2010 and Disturbing the Peace in/about 2012. No other violations were disclosed. Dayrin indicated she has lived in Grand Island for more than ten years, and has been employed at Sanchez Plaza for at least six years. I checked Ramirez Gonzalez through Spillman and NCJIS. I found nothing noteworthy in Spillman records. Through NCJIS records, I located a citation for speeding in 2017 that was not disclosed. Dayrin has a valid Nebraska Drivers License, and no outstanding warrants for her arrest. I also checked through a paid Law Enforcement Only database, which tends to provide mostly personal information and details about any ongoing civil issues. No concerns were located. On July 14th, at 1000, NSP Investigator Jeromy McCoy and I met with Dayrin Ramirez Gonzalez at Sanchez Plaza. Dayrin advised that she has worked at the establishment since at least 2012, mostly in a part time fashion. Dayrin explained that she has been handling the day to day operations, as a manager, since about March of this year, in preparation for the purchase. Inv McCoy had also located the citation from 2017, and asked Dayrin about it. She advised she must have forgotten about it, and acknowledged the incident. McCoy also asked about an NSP contact for no license on person, and Dayrin again said she likely forgot about that incident, and acknowledged the involvement. Daylin said she got into trouble, when she was about 14 or 15 years old, because she was working here at Sanchez Plaza, and sold alcohol to a minor. McCoy indicated that he found that record through the Liquor Commission records, but it was not on Dayrin's criminal history due to her age at that time. Dayrin indicated she has never sold to a minor again, and knows that she would threaten her liquor license should it happen again. Dayrin said she will educate her staff that they must get identification from every customer that purchases alcohol. Ramirez Gonzalez indicated she plans to work 10 hour days, 12 out of 14 days, and will only take off one day a week. She indicated the business will be open from 0800-2000 daily. Dayrin indicated that the business does not sell lottery, although pickle cards are available in the adjoining restaurant area. Ramirez Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 9 / 313 Officer Report for Incident L20071135 Page 5 of 6 07/22/20 Gonzalez said Sanchez Plaza does sell cigarettes, and she demonstration knowledge of tobacco sales procedures, as well as common alcohol violations and wholesale purchase requirements. Dayrin disclosed that while she has never filed for bankruptcy, she is currently in collections for one minor bill, and has less than $100 to pay before that matter is dropped. She indicated that she will be leasing the building and equipment, and received financing through Central Nebraska Credit Union. Dayrin indicated that even though she is purchasing the business from her father, she plans to take it very seriously and will not expect any family favors from Filemon. She also indicated that Filemon will continue to help out at the business periodically, and she can always rely on his experience and knowledge if she encounters any issues. The Grand Island Police Department has no objection to Dayrin Ramirez Gonzalez receiving her Class D liquor license as the new owner, and manager, of Sanchez Plaza.

Staff Contact: Chad Nabity Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 28 / 313 Council Agenda Memo From:Regional Planning Commission Meeting:July 28, 2019 Subject:John Baasch Augers Study (Proposed Area 31) C-17-2020GI Presenter(s):Chad Nabity, AICP, Regional Planning Director Background John Baasch Augers, has commissioned a Blight and Substandard Study for Proposed Redevelopment Area No. 31. The study was prepared by Marvin Planning Associates of David City, Nebraska. This study is approximately 1.69 acres of property between south of South Street between Henry Street and the bike trail in south central Grand Island. (See the attached map) On May 26, 2019, Council referred the attached study to the Planning Commission for its review and recommendation. The study as prepared and submitted indicates that this property could be considered blighted and substandard. The full study is attached for your review and consideration. The decision on whether to declare an area substandard and blighted is entirely within the jurisdiction of the City Council. Discussion The Statutory authority and direction to the Planning Commission is referenced below to explain the Planning Commission purpose in reviewing the study: 18-2109. Redevelopment plan; preparation; requirements; planning commission or board; public hearing; notice; governing body; public hearing; notice. (1) An authority shall not prepare a redevelopment plan for a redevelopment project area unless the governing body of the city in which such area is located has, by resolution adopted after the public hearings required under this section, declared such area to be a substandard and blighted area in need of redevelopment. (2) Prior to making such declaration, the governing body of the city shall conduct or cause to be conducted a study or an analysis on whether the area is substandard and blighted and shall submit the question of whether such area is substandard and blighted to the planning Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 29 / 313 commission or board of the city for its review and recommendation. The planning commission or board shall hold a public hearing on the question after giving notice of the hearing as provided in section 18-2115.01. Such notice shall include a map of sufficient size to show the area to be declared substandard and blighted or information on where to find such map and shall provide information on where to find copies of the substandard and blighted study or analysis conducted pursuant to this subsection. The planning commission or board shall submit its written recommendations to the governing body of the city within thirty days after the public hearing. (3) Upon receipt of the recommendations of the planning commission or board, or if no recommendations are received within thirty days after the public hearing required under subsection (2) of this section, the governing body shall hold a public hearing on the question of whether the area is substandard and blighted after giving notice of the hearing as provided in section 18-2115.01. Such notice shall include a map of sufficient size to show the area to be declared substandard and blighted or information on where to find such map and shall provide information on where to find copies of the substandard and blighted study or analysis conducted pursuant to subsection (2) of this section. At the public hearing, all interested parties shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to express their views respecting the proposed declaration. After such hearing, the governing body of the city may make its declaration. (4) Copies of each substandard and blighted study or analysis conducted pursuant to subsection (2) of this section shall be posted on the city’s public web site or made available for public inspection at a location designated by the city. ~Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska 7-19-18 A flow chart of the blight declaration process is shown in Figure 2. At this time, the Council is only concerned with determining if the property is blighted and substandard. Figure 3 is an overview of the differences between the blight and substandard declaration and the redevelopment plan. If a declaration as blighted and substandard is made by Council then the Community Redevelopment Authority (CRA) can consider appropriate redevelopment plans. The redevelopment plans must also be reviewed by the Planning Commission and approved by Council prior to final approval. The City of Grand Island, as a City of the First Class, is permitted to designate an area of up to 35% of the municipal limits as blighted and substandard. As of May 15, 2020, 22.74% of the City has been declared blighted and substandard. Area 31 would add 1.69 acres to the total of blighted and substandard property and would, if approved, add 0.01% to the total area declared blighted and substandard bringing the total to 22.76%. One other blighted area is outstanding representing a total increase of 0.40% if this were also approved the total would be 23.15%.

Substandard Conditions Existence of conditions which endanger life or property by fire and other causes The properties within this study have existing conditions which can be considered to be dangerous conditions to life or property due to fire or other causes. Along the Ada Street side of Block 2 there is considerable rubble lying in the right-of-way Both properties have considerable debris Substandard Summary Nebraska State Statute requires that “…an area in which there is a predominance of buildings or improvements, whether nonresidential or residential in character, which, by reason of dilapidation, deterioration, age or obsolescence, inadequate provision for ventilation, light, air, sanitation, or open spaces, high density of population and overcrowding, or the existence of conditions which endanger life or property by fire and other causes, or any combination of such factors, is conducive to ill health, transmission of disease, infant mortality, juvenile delinquency, and crime, (which cannot be remedied through construction of prisons), and is detrimental to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare;” This Study Area in Grand Island meets the defintion of Substandard as defined in the Revised Nebraska State Statutes. FINDINGS FOR GRAND ISLAND BLIGHT STUDY AREA #31 Blight Study Area #31 has several items contributing to the Blight and Substandard Conditions. These conditions include: Blighted Conditions under Part A Substantial number of deteriorating structures Deterioration of site or other improvements Dangerous conditions to life or property due to fire or other causes Criteria under Part B of the Blight Definition Stable or decreasing population based upon the last two decennial census Substandard Conditions Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 36 / 313 Dangerous conditions to life or property due to fire or other causes Recommendation Staff recommends considering the following questions as a starting point in the analysis of this Study and in making a determination. The City Council is ultimately responsible for answering the question of whether the property included in the study is blighted and substandard and whether making such a designation is in the best interest of the City. Recommend Questions for City Council Does this property meet the statutory requirements to be considered blighted and substandard? (See the prior statutory references.) Are the blighted and substandard factors distributed throughout the Redevelopment Area, so basically good areas are not arbitrarily found to be substandard and blighted simply because of proximity to areas which are substandard and blighted? Is development of adjacent property necessary to eliminate blighted and substandard conditions in the area? Is public intervention appropriate and/or necessary for the redevelopment of the area? Will a blight declaration increase the likelihood of development/redevelopment in the near future and is that in the best interest of the City? What is the policy of the City toward increasing development and redevelopment in this area of the City? Findings of fact must be based on the study and testimony presented including all written material and staff reports. The recommendation must be based on the declaration, not based on any proposed uses of the site. All of the testimony, a copy of the study and this memo along with any other information presented at the hearing should be entered into the record of the hearing. Planning Commission Recommendation The Regional Planning Commission held a public hearing and took action on the blight and substandard study proposed Area 31 during its meeting on July 1, 2020. This study is approximately 1.69 acres of located south of South Street between Henry Street and the Grand Island Bike Trail. (C-16-2020GI) O’Neill opened the public hearing Nabity explained Keith Marvin of Marvin Planning wrote the Blight Study for four lots owned by John Baasch Augers at the north end of Ada and Henry Streets and south of South Street. The study indicates that the area can be blighted and substandard. Owners are looking into redoing the property adding similar housing. They would like to utilize Tax Increment Financing to clear the property and build new apartment units like those to the south. City Council forwarded the item to Planning commission for review and recommendation. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 37 / 313 O’Neill closed the public hearing A motion was made by Rainforth and second by Ruge to approve of CRA Area #31 located south of South Street between Henry Street and the Grand Island Bike Trail. The motion was carried with seven members voting in favor (O’Neill, Ruge, Monter, Maurer, Allan, Rubio, and Rainforth) with no members voting no. Alternatives It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand. The Council may: 1.Move to approve 2.Refer the issue to a Committee 3.Postpone the issue to future date 4.Take no action on the issue Sample Motion If Council wishes to approve the designation of this property as blighted and substandard, an action required if Tax Increment Financing is to be used for the redevelopment of properties in this area, a motion should be made to approve the Substandard and Blight Designation for Redevelopment Area No. 31 in Grand Island, Hall County, Nebraska finding the information in the study to be factual and supporting such designation. A resolution authorizing the approval of this study has been prepared for Council consideration.

This study has been commissioned by John Baasch Augers in order to analyze the possibility of declaring the area as blighted and substandard. The City of Grand Island, when considering conditions of Blight and Substandard, will be looking at those issues and definitions provided for in the Nebraska Community Redevelopment Law as found in Chapter 18, Section 2104 of the Revised Nebraska State Statutes, as follows: “The governing body of a city, to the greatest extent it deems to be feasible in carrying out the provisions of the Community Development Law, shall afford maximum opportunity, consistent with the sound needs of the city as a whole, to the rehabilitation or redevelopment of the community redevelopment area by private enterprises. The governing body of a city shall give consideration to this objective in exercising its powers under the Community Development Law, including the formulation of a workable program, the approval of community redevelopment plans consistent with the general plan for the development of the city, the exercise of its zoning powers, the enforcement of other laws, codes, and regulations, relating to the use of land and the use and occupancy of buildings and improvements, the disposition of any property acquired, and the providing of necessary public improvements.” The Nebraska Revised Statutes §18-2105 continues by granting authority to the governing body for formulation of a workable program; disaster assistance; effect. The statute reads, “The governing body of a city or an authority at its direction for the purposes of the Community Development Law may formulate for the entire municipality a workable program for utilizing appropriate private and public resources to eliminate or prevent the development or spread of urban blight, to encourage needed urban rehabilitation, to provide for the redevelopment of substandard and blighted areas, or to undertake such of the aforesaid activities or other feasible municipal activities as may be suitably employed to achieve the objectives of such workable program. Such workable program may include, without limitation, provision for the prevention of the spread of blight into areas of the municipality which are free from blight through diligent enforcement of housing, zoning, and occupancy controls and standards; the rehabilitation or conservation of substandard and blighted areas or portions thereof by replanning, removing congestion, providing parks, playgrounds, and other public improvements by encouraging voluntary rehabilitation and by compelling the repair and rehabilitation of deteriorated or deteriorating structures; and the clearance and redevelopment of substandard and blighted areas or portions thereof.” “Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Community Development Law, where the local governing body certifies that an area is in need of redevelopment or rehabilitation as a result of flood, fire, hurricane, earthquake, storm, or other catastrophe respecting which the Governor of the state has certified the need for disaster assistance under federal law, the local governing body may approve a redevelopment plan and a redevelopment project with respect to such area without regard to the provisions of the Community Development Law requiring a general plan for the municipality and notice and public hearing or findings other than herein set forth.” Based on the Nebraska Revised Statutes §18-2103 the following definitions shall apply: “Blighted area means an area (a) which, by reason of the presence of a substantial number of deteriorated or deteriorating structures, existence of defective or inadequate street layout, faulty lot layout in relation to size, adequacy, accessibility, or usefulness, insanitary or unsafe conditions, deterioration of site or other improvements, diversity of ownership, tax or special assessment delinquency exceeding the fair value of the land, defective or unusual conditions of title, improper subdivision or obsolete platting, or the existence of conditions which endanger life or Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 40 / 313 Blight and Substandard Study City of Grand Island, Nebraska • May 2020 Page 2 property by fire and other causes, or any combination of such factors, substantially impairs or arrests the sound growth of the community, retards the provision of housing accommodations, or constitutes an economic or social liability and is detrimental to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare in its present condition and use and (b) in which there is at least one of the following conditions: (i) Unemployment in the designated area is at least one hundred twenty percent of the state or national average; (ii) the average age of the residential or commercial units in the area is at least forty years; (iii) more than half of the plotted and subdivided property in an area is unimproved land that has been within the city for forty years and has remained unimproved during that time; (iv) the per capita income of the area is lower than the average per capita income of the city or village in which the area is designated; or (v) the area has had either stable or decreasing population based on the last two decennial censuses. In no event shall a city of the metropolitan, primary, or first class designate more than thirty-five percent of the city as blighted, a city of the second class shall not designate an area larger than fifty percent of the city as blighted, and a village shall not designate an area larger than one hundred percent of the village as blighted. A redevelopment project involving a formerly used defense site as authorized under section 18-2123.01 shall not count towards the percentage limitations contained in this subdivision;” “Extremely blighted area means a substandard and blighted area in which: (a) The average rate of unemployment in the area during the period covered by the most recent federal decennial census is at least two hundred percent of the average rate of unemployment in the state during the same period; and (b) the average poverty rate in the area exceeds twenty percent for the total federal census tract or tracts or federal census block group or block groups in the area;” “Substandard area means an area in which there is a predominance of buildings or improvements, whether nonresidential or residential in character, which, by reason of dilapidation, deterioration, age or obsolescence, inadequate provision for ventilation, light, air, sanitation, or open spaces, high density of population and overcrowding, or the existence of conditions which endanger life or property by fire and other causes, or any combination of such factors, is conducive to ill health, transmission of disease, infant mortality, juvenile delinquency, and crime, (which cannot be remedied through construction of prisons), and is detrimental to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare; and” “Workforce housing means: (a) Housing that meets the needs of today's working families; (b) Housing that is attractive to new residents considering relocation to a rural community; (c) Owner-occupied housing units that cost not more than two hundred seventy-five thousand dollars to construct or rental housing units that cost not more than two hundred thousand dollars per unit to construct. For purposes of this subdivision (c), housing unit costs shall be updated annually by the Department of Economic Development based upon the most recent increase or decrease in the Producer Price Index for all commodities, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics; (d) Owner-occupied and rental housing units for which the cost to substantially rehabilitate exceeds fifty percent of a unit's assessed value; and (e) Upper-story housing.” This Blight and Substandard Study is being considered a “micro-blight” area under the definition established by the City of Grand Island. The Study is intended to give the Grand Island Community Redevelopment Authority, Hall County Regional Planning Commission and Grand Island City Council the basis for identifying and declaring Blighted and Substandard conditions existing within the City’s jurisdiction and as allowed under Chapter 18. Through this process, the City and property owners will be attempting to address economic and/or social liabilities which are harmful to the well-being of the entire community.

A Redevelopment Plan to be submitted in the future containing, in accordance with the law, definite local objectives regarding appropriate land uses, improved traffic, public transportation, public utilities and other public improvements, and the proposed land uses and building requirements in the redevelopment area and shall include: • The boundaries defining the blighted and substandard areas in question (including existing uses and conditions of the property within the area), and • A list of the conditions present, which qualify the area as blighted and substandard. BLIGHT AND SUBSTANDARD ELIGIBILITY STUDY This study targets a specific area within an established part of the community for evaluation. The area is indicated in Figure 1 of this report. The existing uses in this Micro-blight include residential uses including accessory uses within the corporate limits of Grand Island. Through the redevelopment process the City of Grand Island can guide future development and redevelopment throughout the area. The use of the Community Redevelopment Act by the City of Grand Island is intended to redevelop and improve the area. Using the Community Redevelopment Act, the City of Grand Island can assist in the elimination of negative conditions and implement different programs/projects identified for the City. The following is the description of the designated area within Grand Island. Lots 1 and 2 Block 1, Dawn Subdivision and Lots 1 and 2, Block 2, Dawn Subdivision and the adjacent right-of-way of Ada Street.

EEXXIISSTTIINNGG LLAANNDD UUSSEESS The term “Land Use” refers to the developed uses in place within a building or on a specific parcel of land. The number and type of uses are constantly changing within a community and produce a number of impacts either benefitting or detracting from the community. Existing patterns of land use are often fixed in older communities and neighborhoods, while development in newer areas is often reflective of current development practices. Existing Land Use Analysis within Study Area As part of the planning process, a survey was conducted through both in-field observations, as well as data collection online using the Hall County Assessors website. This survey noted the use of each parcel of land within the study area. These data from the survey are analyzed in the following paragraphs. 1 2 2 2 1 1 Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 42 / 313 Blight and Substandard Study City of Grand Island, Nebraska • May 2020 Page 4 TABLE 1: EXISTING LAND USE, GRAND ISLAND - 2020 Type of Use Acres Percent of Developed land within the Study Area Percent of Study Area Residential 0 0.0% 0.0% Single-family 0 0.0% 0.0% Multi-family 0 0.0% 0.0% Manufactured Housing 0 0.0% 0.0% Commercial 0 0.0% 0.0% Industrial 1.49 88.2% 88.2% Quasi-Public/Public 0 0.0% 0.0% Parks/Recreation 0 0.0% 0.0% Transportation 0.20 11.8% 11.8% Total Developed Land 1.69 100.0% 100.0% Vacant/Agriculture 0.00 0.00% Total Area 1.69 100.0% Source: Marvin Planning Consultants 2020 Table 1 includes the existing land uses for the entire study area.

The Findings Section will review the conditions based upon the statutory definitions. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS There were a number of conditions examined and evaluated in the field and online. There are a number of conditions that will be reviewed in detail, on the following pages, while some of the statutory conditions are not present. Structural Conditions Structural conditions were evaluated, structures were either rated as: Very Good, Good, Fair, Average, or badly worn. The data and rating system comes from the Hall County Assessor’s database and is the same database used to value properties in the area. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 43 / 313 Blight and Substandard Study City of Grand Island, Nebraska • May 2020 Page 5 Legend Normal Condition Below Normal Poor Based upon the data provided to the planning team, the following is the breakdown for structures in the study area: • 0 ( 0.0%) structures rated as very good • 0 ( 0.0%) structures rated as good • 0 ( 0.0%) structure rated as fair • 8 (66.7%) structures rated as average • 4 ( 33.3%) structure rated as badly worn Figure 3: Structural Conditions Source: Hall County Assessor and Marvin Planning Consultants 2020 Note: Lines and Aerial may not match. Based upon these data, an assumption has been made that average condition and less would constitute less than desirable conditions due to age and conditions. It is common for older structures to get more maintenance and upkeep in order to maintain a good or higher condition. Even an average structure will show some signs of deteriorating which in turn can become a dilapidated structure in the future if it is not addressed over time. Overall, 100.0% of the structures in this study area are below normal condition or worse based upon the Hall County Assessor’s data. Due to the stated conditions found in the Hall County Assessor’s data, the condition of the structure is a contributing factor.

Dangerous conditions to life or property due to fire or other causes The properties within this study have existing conditions which can be considered to be dangerous conditions to life or property due to fire or other causes. • Along the Ada Street side of Block 2 there is considerable rubble lying in the right-of-way • Both properties have considerable debris Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 45 / 313 Blight and Substandard Study City of Grand Island, Nebraska • May 2020 Page 7 Stable or decreasing population based on the last two decennial censuses The Dawn Subdivision was originally platted in 1890. However, the buildings constructed within this study area were constructed around 1985. Therefore, the overall population of this study has been zero and has had no growth during the last two decennial censuses. Blighting Summary These conditions are contributing to the blighted conditions of the study area. Criteria under Part A of the Blight Definition • Substantial number of deteriorating structures o Within the study are 100.0% of the structures were deemed to be in either below normal or poor condition. • Deterioration of site or other improvements o 100% of the road surfaces serving this study area are considered in an average to below average condition. o 100.0% of the curb and gutter are in an average to deteriorating condition o Approximately 50.0% of the sidewalk is in a deteriorating state • Dangerous conditions to life or property due to fire or other causes o All of the lots within the study area contain rubble and/or materials throughout the properties that are dangerous to life or property.

Finance Director Patrick Brown stated the good news was the states sales tax for the month of July was up from what was previously figured by his department. He reported that due to the pandemic and the uncertainty of the City’s revenue sources for the upcoming budget year, certain decisions needed to be made as to the funding of General Fund operations and the use of Cash Reserves. The Budget Policy Review Committee met on July 10, 2020 and agreed on Model 2 of 4 Models. The following assumptions were made for each model: • 15% reduction in Sales Tax Revenue • 2% Property Tax Increase (discussion point) • 3% revenue growth for year 2022 and 2% growth for years 2023-2026 • 3.31% growth in Personnel Services for years 2022-2026 (see historical data) • 0% cost of living adjustment for non-union members in the General Fund for FY2021 • Transfers out of $750k for Economic Development (LB840), Community Development $25k, Transit $220k, and Capital Equipment of $500k Model 2: Use $1,445,883 in cash reserves for the FY2021 budget.

Luchsinger, Utilities Director Stacy Nonhof, Interim City Attorney Meeting Date:July 28, 2020 Subject:Turbine Valve Overhaul – Fall 2020 Presenter(s):Timothy G. Luchsinger, Utilities Director Background An inspection and overhaul of the turbine valves at the Platte Generating Station is performed every 2.5 years. The next overhaul is scheduled for the fall outage in October of this year. During this inspection, the turbine valves are completely disassembled, and all components are cleaned, inspected, repaired or replaced as necessary. Specifications were developed by the plant maintenance staff to include all labor to open, inspect, clean, and close the turbine valves, with the Utilities Department to supply all required parts and materials. The Specifications include time and material rates for additions or reductions in the repair labor amount as the amount of actual work is not known until the valves are disassembled and inspected. Discussion The specification for the Turbine Valve Overhaul – Fall 2020, was advertised and issued for bid in accordance with the City Purchasing Code. Bids were publicly opened on July 7, 2020. The engineer’s estimate for this project was $800,000.00, with the bid results for the valve overhaul as follows: Bidder Bid Price Valve Mapping Total Adjusted Bid Price GE Steam Power, Inc. Windsor, Connecticut $ 221,000.00 $ **$221,000.00 HPI, LLC Houston, Texas $ 161,458.00 $121,731.00 $238,189.00 Mechanical Dynamics & Analysis Latham, New York $ 278,504.00 $ 39,265.00 $317,769.00 S.T.

The bid from *S.T. Cotter was not summed correctly in the bid documents and has been corrected. All other bidders had several exceptions to the work bid. Each exception was reviewed and determined acceptable with the recommended bidder. The bids also included pricing for valve mapping, if mapping were to be required during inspection. When combining the valve mapping with the valve overhaul, the low bidder for the overhaul, HPI would no longer be the low bidder. **GE Steam Power, Inc., the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) stated they will be able to perform the valve overhaul without valve mapping, having all the original design drawings. Valve mapping is not recommended by GE Steam Power. The bid from GE Steam Power, Inc., of Windsor, Connecticut, has exceptions that are acceptable and less than the engineer’s estimate. Alternatives It appears that the Council has the following alternatives concerning the issue at hand. The Council may: 1.Move to approve 2.Refer the issue to a Committee 3.Postpone the issue to future date 4.Take no action on the issue Recommendation City Administration recommends that Council award the Contract for the Turbine Valve Overhaul – Fall 2020 to GE Steam Power, Inc., of Windsor, Connecticut, as the low responsive bidder, with the bid in the amount of $221,000.00. Sample Motion Move to approve the bid in the amount of $221,000.00, from GE Steam Power, Inc., of Windsor, Connecticut, for the Turbine Valve Overhaul – Fall 2020 at Platte Generating Station.

The use of a pavement marking contractor has allowed the Streets Division to re-organize its labor force to focus on the storm sewer cleaning program. Another benefit of utilizing contractor services is the reduction in traffic disruption accomplished by work being conducted only during off-peak hours (night) and completed faster using specialized equipment. In March of 2020 the City of Grand Island City Council authorized the award of a pavement marking maintenance contract to Straight-Line Striping, Inc. of Grand Island, NE. The renewable contract was written as a three year agreement, which includes the original term plus two opportunities to renew for additional one-year periods. The contract, which includes labor, materials, and traffic control, is structured as a unit price contract which enables the Streets Division to utilize as few or as many of the bid services as necessary. Discussion The 2020 striping work was estimated in the amount of $111,621.25, however this estimate is based on prior years since the contract is awarded in the winter. Prior to the work, roadways are driven at night to determine if the striping is bright enough. Quantities are impacted by wear and tear from vehicles; snow plowing, asphalt overlay project, other construction and maintenance activities. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 271 / 313 Per the spring, night-time inspection there were several stretches of roadway that were added to the striping list that were not included in the original quantities. Capital Ave between Webb Rd and Locust St was added to the re-striping list this season. This is the first time it required re-striping since the widening project in 2016/17. Several of the overlay and chip seal roads from last year required restriping which is not typically planned the following year. This was the first year that the center turn lane arrows on East Hwy 30 between Public Safety Dr and Shady Bend Rd required painting. The known areas left to paint were under construction during the initial round of striping include the following: Husker Hwy from Hwy 30 to east of North Rd (City’s overlay project) Engleman Rd from Hwy 30 to Husker Hwy (City’s overlay project) Schimmer Dr from North Rd to Blaine St (City’s overlay project; County section included per interlocal agreement) Blaine St from Hwy 34 to Schimmer Dr (City’s overlay project; County section included per interlocal agreement) Eddy St from 1st to Anna (Streets Division asphalt & concrete maintenance) Webb Rd from College to 16th (water main project) State St from Lawrence Ln to Sheridan Ave (water main project) Public Works Administration is requesting an additional $15,000 for a total of $126,621.25 to ensure all areas requiring striping are completed. Per the summary of the original bids submitted on February 12, 2020, below, the total contract with change order is well below the next lowest bidder’s price.

INTRODUCTION: The fiscal policies outlined in this document and the supplements are intended to be: 1. Fully consistent with the Mission and Purpose Statement for the City Of Grand Island. “Enhance the quality of life in the Grand Island Community, to recognize the vitality and diversity of our neighborhoods, and to promote development by providing effective and responsive services through vision, respect and courtesy.” 2. Enhance quality of life for Grand Island citizens by providing needed services while limiting growth in government budget and size. 3. Make City government clearly and directly accountable to its citizens. Fiscal Policies are used here to mean the combined policies of Grand Island City government with respect to taxes and other fiscal resources, spending and debt management used in support of the City's public services program. The budget process is the major vehicle for determining and implementing the relevant policies. Fiscal policy applies management principles to social and economic data in meeting budgetary objectives. Its purpose is to provide guidance for good public practice in the planning and financing of public expenditures. Fiscal policy which is both realistic and consistent provides useful guidance for the long-term programming of services and facilities. It provides a set of assumptions under which budget and tax decisions should be made. While established for the best management of governmental resources, fiscal policy also helps set the parameters for governments' role in the broader economy of the community. Policy formulation is the dual responsibility of the City Administrator and Finance Director, who develops policy recommendations, Mayor, and the City Council, who reviews the recommendations and establishes policy through the adoption of appropriate Ordinances and Resolutions. The current fiscal policy is presented on the following pages under six broad policy headings: General Financial Objectives, Accounting, Auditing, and Financial Reporting Policies, Fund Balances, Investment Policies, Capital Improvement Policies, Debt management Policies, and Communication and Disclosure Policies. II. GENERAL FINANCIAL OBJECTIVES The City of Grand Island’s general financial goals are stated as follows: 1) To maintain an adequate financial base for purposes of sustaining a prescribed level of services as determined by the State, Mayor, and City Council. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 280 / 313 2 2) To adhere to accounting and management practices as set by the Government Finance Officers' Association (GFOA), statements issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) guidelines. 3) To respond to local and regional economic conditions, to adjust to changes in the service requirements of our community, and to respond to changes in State and Federal priorities and funding. 4) To maintain appropriate amount of cash reserves by ensuring that the City is in a position to respond to changes in the economy or new service challenges without an undue amount of financial stress. 5) To promote fiscal conservation and to obtain the highest credit rating possible by insuring that the City is at all times in a solid financial condition. This can be defined as: a. Cash Solvency - the ability to pay current bills in a timely fashion. b. Budgetary Solvency - the ability to balance the budget. c. Long-run Solvency - the ability to pay future costs. d. Service Level Solvency - the ability to provide needed and desired services. 6) To assure taxpayers that City government is well managed by using prudent financial management practices and maintaining a sound fiscal condition. III. ACCOUNTING, AUDITING AND FINANCIAL REPORTING The goals of the Finance Department are fully consistent with the following stated budget and accounting policies of the Grand Island City government. That is, to provide the best financial data possible to allow Administrative and the general citizenry an understanding of the complete financial circumstances surrounding public decision-making so the financial consequences of those decisions can be properly assessed and the rational allocation of City resources be enhanced. A. Accounting and Reporting Capabilities: The City of Grand Island's governmental accounting system must make it possible:  to present fairly and with full disclosure the financial position and results of financial operations of the funds and account groups of the city in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as defined by the GASB, and  To determine and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal and contractual requirements. B. Fund Accounting: The accounting system shall be organized and operated on a fund basis. A fund is defined as a fiscal and accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources, together with all related liabilities and residual balances, and changes therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations or restrictions. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 281 / 313 3 C. Fixed Assets and Long-Term Liabilities: Fixed assets shall be accounted for at cost or, if the cost is not practicably determinable, at estimated cost. Donated fixed assets shall be recorded at their estimated fair market value at the time received. Depreciation of general fixed assets shall be recorded in the accounts of individual funds. D. Basis of Accounting The basis of accounting will be determined to most efficiently measure financial position and operating results. E.

The City Administrator and the Finance Director shall exercise supervision and control of all budgeted expenditures within these limits, holding expenses below appropriations or allowing over-runs in individual line-items providing that at no time shall the net expenditures exceed the total appropriation for that fund as originally authorized or amended by the Mayor and City Council. No appropriations measure shall be submitted to or adopted by the Mayor and City Council in which estimated total expenditures, including an accrued deficit, exceed estimated total revenues, including an available surplus. There are five appropriation types unless regulated otherwise by other statutes; Personnel costs which include all employee compensation and benefit related expenses; Operating expenses which are all expenses that are required for operations; capital expenditures for assets falling within the Capitalization threshold; Debt Service which includes all debt related payments; and fund transfers.

All appropriations are annual as authorized by the General Appropriations Act and the unexpended portion shall lapse at year end. Budgeting comparisons shall be presented in the financial statements as required by GASB and all budgetary procedures shall conform to existing State Law. The budget shall provide for adequate maintenance of the capital plant and equipment, and for their orderly replacement. The budget shall provide for adequate funding of the City's retirement programs. The operating budget shall describe the major program goals to be achieved, and the services and programs to be delivered for the level of funding provided. IV. FUND BALANCE The establishment and maintenance of adequate cash balances and reserves allows the City financial flexibility and security and is recognized as an important factor considered by bond rating agencies and the underwriting community when reviewing City debt issuance. Along with maintaining the City's credit worthiness, such cash balances and reserves provide the means to handle economic uncertainties, local disasters and other unanticipated financial hardships, as well as, to meet cash flow requirements. In addition to the designations noted below, fund balance levels will be sufficient to meet funding requirements for projects approved in prior years that are carried forward into the new year; debt service reserve requirements; and other reserves or designations required by contractual obligations or generally accepted accounting principles. • General Fund - The City shall strive to maintain the fund balance at no less than 30% of the proposed operating (personnel and operating expenditures combined) budget expenditures for the General Fund. • Capital Project Funds - There is no minimum fund balance requirement for the Capital Project Funds. • Debt Service Funds - The City shall maintain sufficient reserves in its debt service funds which shall equal or exceed the reserve fund balance of twelve (12) months of debt service or as required by bond ordinances. • Enterprise Funds - The City shall strive to maintain the fund balance at no less than 30% Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 283 / 313 5 of the proposed operating budget expenditures for the Enterprise Funds.

Should such use reduce the balance below the appropriate level set as the objective for that fund as indicated above, restoration recommendations will accompany the decision to utilize said fund balance. V. PURCHASING POLICIES: The City Council establishes purchasing policies as detailed in the City Code. Through the Procurement Code, the City of Grand Island is protected by various safeguards. The Code sets requirements at certain cost levels for bidder security, payment and performance bonding. Ethics for City officials and employees are also clearly established to prevent the acceptance of gratuities and kickbacks, as well as, preventing any City official or employee financial gains from a procurement contract. The competitive bidding procedure for larger purchases defines any exceptions outlined by the Code and gives basic instructions to user departments for day to day purchasing. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 284 / 313 6 V. REVENUE AND INVESTMENT POLICIES: Administration of Revenue and Investment Policies is the responsibility of the City Treasurer (Finance Director). The two main objectives of the Finance Director in the role of City Treasurer are the custodian of all City funds and the collector of receipts. The goals and objectives of the Treasurer's Office include:  To guarantee the safety of City funds by adhering to statutory requirements regarding bonding and placement of funds and maintaining a system of controls to monitor such activities.  To maximize earnings on temporarily available funds by seeking the best available combination of safety, interest rates, and lengths of short term investments.  To conform to the guidelines and objectives as detailed in the Investment Policy document as approved by council. A. REVENUE POLICIES: When exercising the City's tariff and taxing powers, the City will comply with the following principles: 1) Stability - A diversified and stable revenue system shall be maintained to ensure fiscal health and absorb short run fluctuations in any one revenue source. Ongoing operating costs should be supported by ongoing, stable revenue sources. 2) Sufficiency - Fees should cover the full cost of issuance, administration and enforcement. 3) Efficiency - A fee should be levied in a way which can be easily and inexpensively administered by the City and complied with by the taxpayer. A minimum of the revenue raised through a fee or tax should be consumed in the process of raising it. 4) Simplicity - Charges and levies should be readily understood by the taxpayer and the official. The amount of the charge or levy should be easily computed and verified. 5) Equitability - No arbitrary distinctions should be made among taxpayers or classes of taxpayers. However, distinctions will be made when the City believes that such distinctions are appropriate and will not have a disproportionate impact on taxpayers or a class of taxpayers. 6) Growth - Fees, charges or levies should not be excessive, so as to either discourage reasonable economic growth or to place the City of Grand Island in a position of comparative disadvantage with other communities. Revenues from growth or development should be targeted to costs related to development or invested in improvements that will benefit future residents or make future services provision more efficient. 7) Reliability and Continuity - Fluctuating federal and state grants should not be used to fund ongoing programs. Grant applications to fund new service programs with State or Federal funds shall be reviewed by the City, with significant consideration given to whether locally generated funds will be required to support these programs when original funding is Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 285 / 313 7 no longer available. A minimum of locally generated revenues will be used to replace funding for activities which are or have traditionally been the responsibilities of the Federal and State governments. 8) Full Cost Recovery - Where the City of Grand Island provides services on behalf of other governmental jurisdictions, the City shall establish and maintain agreements and contracts with those jurisdiction - including the Federal Government, the State of Nebraska, Hall County, joint agencies, other counties and incorporated cities, and taxing districts - to strive to ensure the City of Grand Island is reimbursed for the full cost of those services. 9) Maximization - In order to maximize revenues, the City shall, to the fullest extent possible: a. Aggressively collect revenues. b. Establish all fees and use charges at levels related to recovery of full costs incurred in providing the related services. c. Review fees and user charges annually so as to provide for changes in rates to keep pace with changes in the costs of providing services. d. Charge fees for all services that benefit limited interests within the community, except for human needs services to persons with limited ability to pay. e. Make revenue projections for five years and revise annually. B. INVESTMENT POLICIES: Consistent with the Treasurers' Office stated goals and objectives, the City operates under the following general investment policies: 1) The City analyzes the cash flow of all funds on a regular basis to ensure maximum cash availability. 2) Market conditions and investment securities are reviewed on a regular basis to determine the maximum yield to be obtained. 3) The City will invest as much of its idle cash as possible on a continuous basis. These investments shall be in quality issues and in compliance with Council Resolutions and State Statutes regarding investment requirements. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 286 / 313 8 VI. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT POLICIES: A. General 1) A Fixed Asset Inventory of the City's physical assets and their conditions shall be developed and maintained. 2) The Department Directors, in conjunction with the City Administrator, shall develop a multi-year plan for capital improvements and update it annually.

Source of funding shall be determined by looking to the ultimate beneficiary of each capital improvement. C. Prioritization of Capital Projects - Capital improvement needs are to be identified, categorized and prioritized as follows: 1) First Priority: Essential Basic Services. 2) Second Priority: Essential Maintenance of Effort Services. 3) Third Priority: Essential Quality of Life Services. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 287 / 313 9 4) Fourth Priority: Desirable Basic Services. 5) Fifth Priority: Desirable Maintenance of Effort Services 6) Sixth Priority: Desirable Quality of Life Services. VII. DEBT MANAGEMENT POLICIES: A. The following debt management policies shall be used to provide the general framework for planning and reviewing debt proposals. The City recognizes that there are no absolute rules or easy formulas that can substitute for a thorough review of all information affecting the City ‘s debt position. Debt decisions should be the result of deliberate consideration of all factors involved including but not limited to life expectancy of capital improvement and/or expansion. B. The City of Grand Island will use debt financing when it is appropriate. It shall be judged appropriate only when the following conditions exist: 1) When non-continuous capital improvements are desired. 2) When it can be determined that future citizen's will receive a benefit from the improvement and/or expansion. C. The City may use short-term borrowing (Notes) to finance operating needs as a bridge between maturity dates of long term investments, but reasonable forecasting should minimize this need. However, interim financing in anticipation of a definite fixed source of revenue such as property taxes, an authorized but unsold bond issue, or a grant is acceptable. Such tax, bond or grant anticipation notes and warrants shall not: 1) Have maturities greater than 2 1/2 years; 2) Be rolled over for a period greater than one year; or 3) Be issued solely on the expectation that interest rates will decline from current levels. D. Uses of Debt Financing: 1) Bond proceeds shall be limited to financing the costs of planning, design, land acquisition, buildings, permanent structures, attached fixtures or equipment, and infrastructures 2) Non-capital furnishings and supplies shall not be financed from bond proceeds. 3) Refunding bond issues designed to restructure currently outstanding debt is an acceptable use of bond proceeds. E. Taxpayer Equity - A significant proportion of the City's property tax payers and citizens should benefit from projects financed by limited general obligation bonds. This principle of taxpayer equity shall be a primary consideration in determining the type of projects selected for financing. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 288 / 313 10 F. When the City of Grand Island utilizes long-term debt financing it shall ensure that the debt is soundly financed by forecasting, conservatively but accurately, all revenue sources that will be utilized to pay the debt. VIII. COMMUNICATION AND DISCLOSURE POLICIES: The City of Grand Island's primary financial reporting objectives are keyed to open communication and full disclosure. A. Financial reporting shall assist in fulfilling the City's duty to be publicly accountable and enable users to assess that accountability. B. Financial reporting shall assist users in evaluating the operating results of the City of Grand Island for the year. C. Financial reporting shall assist users in assessing the level of services that can be provided by the City and its ability to meet its obligations as they become due. D. These primary objectives are divided further into six basic objectives; financial reporting shall: 1) Provide information to determine whether current-year revenues were sufficient to pay for current-year services. 2) Demonstrate whether resources were obtained and used in accordance with the City's legally adopted budget; it shall also demonstrate compliance with other finance-related legal or contractual requirements. 3) Provide information to assist users in assessing the service efforts, costs and accomplishments of the City of Grand Island. 4) Provide information about sources and uses of financial resources and how the City financed its activities and met its cash requirements. 5) Provide information necessary to determine whether the City's financial position improved or deteriorated as a result of the year's operations. 6) Disclose legal or contractual restrictions on resources and risks of potential loss of resources. E. The City of Grand Island shall maintain good communications with bond rating agencies to inform them about the City's financial condition. Each bond prospectus shall follow the Governmental Finance Officers Association disclosure guidelines. F. These objectives are not considered to be static. Revisions are to be expected as needs change or as requirements for additional financial reporting information emerges. Grand Island Council Session - 7/28/2020 Page 289 / 313 11 IX.
