Memo to: Breezy Point Mayor and City Council From: Patrick Wussow, City Administrator/Clerk Date: February 6, 2020 Re: Liability Limits Each year with the renewal of the city insurance, LMCIT, asks the city to review whether or not we want to waive municipal tort liability limits. This decision is an annual election made by the city council. The city has not waived the monetary tort limits in the past. The city has liability coverage in the amount of $2,000,000. This is the standard amount provided by LMCIT. The city can carry additional excess liability coverage without waiving the statutory tort limits. As you may recall we had additional coverage beyond this for paramedic coverage as well. This additional coverage is now limited to the contract alone. The State of Minnesota has established tort limits for cities. Currently the limit established as a single claimant is $500,000. The total tort liability with multiple claimants for a single occurrence is $1,500,000. The league increased its minimum liability coverage for cities to $2,000,000. The minimum was increased in part to protect cities and also to provide additional coverage for those claims that are not covered by the statutory tort limit. If the city does not waive the statutory limit we have coverage up to that amount for a claim that is not subject to the tort limits. Assuming the council wants to maintain the current status, a motion that the city does not waive the monetary limits on municipal tort liability would be required. Given the city has never waived statutory tort limits this option is the council’s likely choice. If the council chooses to waive the limits the motion should include what amount of additional coverage should be purchased. Excess coverage can be purchased in increments of $1,000,000 up to $5,000,000. Underwriting would need to determine our additional costs. As a third option if the council wants to carry additional excess liability coverage without waiving the statutory tort limits a motion in that regard would need to define the amount of additional coverage. Excess coverage would come at an additional cost. Costs are determined by underwriting based on various factors. If the council wants to maintain past practices a motion to not waive statutory tort limits would be appreciated.
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS SUPERVISOR JOE ZIERDEN
MEETING OF: MARCH 2, 2020
SUBJECT: 2020 CHIP SEALING
BACKGROUND:
The following roads: Pawnee Circle, Aztec Circle, Pima Circle, Navaho Trail, and Zuni Circle were
identified for chip sealing in 2020. These roads were paved a couple years ago and are the last
of the qualified roads to be chip sealed for the first time. For 2020 $60,000 was budgeted for
chip sealing, the estimated cost for these roads is around $34,000.00, and finalized costs will be
realized after the county puts chip sealing out to bid. I have attached the 2020 chip sealing
contract proposal with Crow Wing County to request authorization to sign the agreement.
RQUESTED ACTION:
A motion to sign the 2020 chip seal agreement with Crow Wing County would be appreciated.

TO: The City of Breezy Point Mayor and City Council FROM: Patrick Wussow, City Administrator/Clerk DATE: February 25, 2020 RE: Legislative Policy Every year I attempt to visit our state Legislators at the Capital during the legislative session. This year I am planning to attend the March 19th Legislative day at the capital for MN cities. Meetings have already been set up with Representative Heintzman and Senator Ruud. Several other communities from Crow Wing County will be attending including Nisswa and Pequot Lakes. There may be more including Brainerd, Baxter, Jenkins, and Crosby. Our legislators have always been open and listened to our information. This visit I was hoping the City Council would authorize the attached letter or some revision of the attached letter. I have identified four bullet points, but I typically like to keep the bullet points to three. I would ask that the City Council prioritize their top three issues. Additionally, maybe I didn’t include an important issue that you would like included. That should be discussed prior to identifying your top three list. Included with this cover memo is a letter and attachments. Two of the attachments will be included with the letter to provide relative background information. The additional information provided is for City Council member to have specific to our Representative and Senator and bills they have authored in 2020. Please review my attached letter and share your thoughts and comments at the meeting.

Re: City of Breezy Point Legislative Action Issues
Senator Ruud:
At the March 2nd Breezy point City Council meeting, the City Council identified the
following issues as important to the City of Breezy Point. Please keep these issues and
the City Council concerns in mind while constructing legislation.
1. The City Council requests that mandates and associated costs be fully funded
so the City does not have to raise property taxes. Examples include: recent
Presidential Primary, Duty disability funding for Police and Fire 1997
legislation amended by 2003 legislation.
2. Appropriate Transportation funding – The Transportation Finance Advisory
Committee (TFAC) has identified unmet needs of at least $2.5 Billion per year
for the next twenty years. Local example: Bushman Road need of repair, this
is a potential project for Road of Regional Significance. Four gravel pits use
Bushman Road as a primary road (map identifies location, three outside of
the City of Breezy Point)
3. The Breezy Point City Council supports Bonding to address Minnesota
Workforce Housing Crisis. MN National Association of Housing and
Redevelopment Officials (MNNAHRO) seeks $200 million in housing
infrastructure bonds (HIB).
4. The Breezy Point City Council is opposed to legalizing the sale of Marijuana.
They specifically site two reports from the MN Police Chiefs Association –
Drug Policy Source Book and Marijuana Legalization the issues.
You have a long positive history with the City and know that we have a lot going for our
community. If the City of Breezy Point or I can ever assist you, please let me know.
My direct dial number is 218-656-1318, cell 218-829-3448, or by email at

TO: City of Breezy Point Mayor and City Council FROM: Patrick Wussow, City Administrator/Clerk DATE: February 25, 2020 RE: Sales of Golf Cart Permits on Saturday May 2, 2020 during the Breezy
Point Aviation Days at the Airport Cliff Muller has authorized the City of Breezy Point to set up a “booth” during Breezy Point Aviation Days, to sell city golf cart permits. In 2019 the city issued 488 golf cart permits. Typically, we will issue golf cart permits into October of each year. One of the common comments we hear at City Hall is that some residents only come up on weekends when City Hall is not open. With that in mind, we have been considering options like visiting the camp grounds and local businesses during the weekends. Most of those ideas seems to only address a select group. By offering golf cart permits for sale during Aviation Days we hope that the community as a whole will benefit. There is the potential of drawing additional visitors to aviation days just for the purposes of obtaining a golf cart permit. Staff intends to create a flyer to post on the City’s website, City and Police Facebook pages, and hard copies for local businesses and at the campgrounds. To obtain the required golf cart permit, residents will still be required to provide the following:
1. Completed 2020 golf cart permit application (required every year) 2. Proof of Insurance for specific golf cart. (with current dates) 3. $10.00 (ten dollars) check or cash. Credit cards will not be accepted.
No action is necessary.
City of Breezy Point Staff Report TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: Kevin Merschman
DATE: February 25, 2020
MEETING DATE: March 2, 2020
SUBJECT: Renew Police Paramedic agreement
AGENDA ITEM:
Background: The city entered into an agreement with North Memorial whereby North provides medical
direction, equipment and medications that allow the certified officers of the police department to
provide advanced medical services to pre-hospital patients. Our current agreement has expired and it
took some time to get NMAS attorneys to sign off on the new agreement. Because of the issues with
having a two- year agreement they have changed the contract to an auto renewal so that we will no
longer need to go through this process. There are no other changes to the contract.
Requested Action:
Approve the agreement between the City and North Memorial for the continuation of the Police
Paramedic Program with auto renewal.
