Hakanson Anderson Associates, Inc. has researched the cost to rent equipment for
brush clean-up in Otsego. Morrell Incorporated of Elk River was contacted for price
quotes for equipment. Morrell recently complete the clean-up in Anoka, with
assistance from City crews. The lead contact is:
Larry Morrell at (612) 867-1204
Morrell has a clam -bucket available on Saturdays (6 am to 6 pm). The rate is
$75.00/hour. The clam -bucket may be available on weekdays (day to day availability)
at a rate of $70.00/hour. The rate includes an operator. Morrell indicated they would
not rent the machine without an operator.
End dumps are available at a rate of $54.00/hour weekdays and $60.00/hour
weekends.
Mr. Morrell indicated that they cleaned up Anoka in about a week. This was done
using City front end loaders during the week and the clam -bucket on weekends.
The clam -bucket is currently available on Saturdays. One possibility is to use the clam -
bucket with City trucks on Saturdays to complete the work. At 12 hours a day, this
would mean $900 per Saturday for Morrell's equipment.

The sub -committee of Mayor Fournier and CM Ackerman met Thursday, July 17. The
following are their recommendations:
Brush Clean Up
Hire Morrell Inc. to use the clam -bucket with City trucks and maintenance personnel for
Saturday (at 12 hours a day). Morrell's cost for each Saturday would be $900. Cleanup
of brush would be for the Saturdays of August 2 and August 9 from 6 AM to 6 PM.
Brush clean up will be from the Public ROW ONLY.
Assessment of streets that need brush pick-up will be done by the Public Works
Department on the preceding Friday.
This recommendation is based on:
- helping residents which include some who are not able to transport
their brush to the brush pile located behind City Hall.
- clearing away the ROWs and insuring drainage will not be obstructed
Replacements of homes lost during storm
Follow the City Ordinances.
This recommendation was done based on:
- responsibility to treat all residents the same
- difference in price between the price of a double wide and single wide
is not a substantial difference
(example, per a local dealer, a typically new single wide is approximately
$40,000 which is equivalent to a $48,000 double wide and therefore
approximately $80 more in monthly payments)
- in checking with neighboring communities none of them allow single
wides on private property, except for trailer parks.
- if there were to be any amendments to the Zoning Ordinances, time
would be a factor. The processing of an amendment change involves
several weeks and would delay residents making a decision regarding
their situation.
Because the City is concerned with the residents currently living in campers and tents, we
encourage them to start working with the City ASAP regarding the replacement of their
homes. There is help available through the Red Cross. We understand the Red Cross has
already been through several areas in the City. The Red Cross number is 291-6789.
We have also talked to the MN Housing Agency. There is a MN Mortgage Program and
some of the local lenders are Marquette Bank of Otsego, Liberty Savings Bank in
Monticello, First National of Elk River, Norwest of Elk River and Heigl Mortgage and
Financial Corporation of Elk River. A suggestion is to go to one of these lenders and
discuss your situation with them. Dealerships of Manufactured Homes also offer financing
suggestions and as do the Realtors working with builders. Residents may also call the
Emergency Services of the State of MN at 296-2233.
Civil Defense Director and Emergency Policy
Since the City currently does not have a Civil Defense Director or an Emergency Policy,
consider giving direction to the staff to research, through other cities having such policies,
and to bring this back to the City Council for discussion.

spoke with FMHA to get a better idea of where to send these people who need help. They told me
that their best option is to call the HRA (320-252-0880) first to see if there's any grant or loan money
available through Iliem. If they are unable to get help through the HRA a Fix -Up loan is probably the
most appropriate.
Enclosed is the information about the fix up loan and what lenders deal with these loans. The loan
comes directly from the financial institution and payments are made to the Minnesota Housing Finance
agency. As I wrote on the lender sheet the requirements for this loan are:
Total family Incorne does not exceed $413,000
The borrower must have 113 ownership in property
The borrower rnust have a good credit history
The borrower must meet the ability to pay requirements
The loan has a 2.8% Interest rete depending on income
They may borrow up to $1$,000
They may take up to 15 years to repay the loan
They may also oaq Rural Development at 320-251-8880 to see if their are any loans or grants available.
These are usually for very low Income families.
I also included our St Cloud Housing Brochure that lists the property management companies that may
have housing. Because of the college situation there may be some empty housing in the college area
that people could rent for a month or two.
If there are people who are In need of fumlture you may want to call the local furniture stores to see If
they have any trade-ins they went to give away,,
