Agenda Item
Chief's Report/Staffing Projections for 2021
Chief Sturgis provided a department update. He reported staffing schedules and some operations were
affected by the COVID-19 pandemic; patrol officers moved to team schedules for several months in 2020
and administrative staff and investigators have been working remotely since March. The department
continues to host virtual monthly staff meetings and weekly department meetings. Most community
events were cancelled in 2020, but some are anticipated to resume in 2021. Chief Sturgis reported the
department is working with Hennepin County on an embedded social worker program and is exploring a
partnership with Normandale Community College for an internship program.
Chief Sturgis reported the department lost a couple recruits in 2020. There were six early retirements
and another retirement is expected at the end of April 2021. Chief Sturgis stated there are nine

candidates on the eligibility register, four of which started with the department on January 18t". A
background investigation has been completed on the next candidate on the eligibility register and staff
will be reaching out to the remaining candidates on the register to begin additional background
investigations. Depending on the number of viable candidates remaining on the list in the next couple
months, a new officer hiring process may be needed. Chief Sturgis advised the department is also
exploring hiring additional community service officers or resource officers to handle certain types of calls
that patrol officers currently handle.
Commissioner Wold stated based on recent discussions at task force meetings, it does not appear a new
commission will be formed to replace the Civil Service Commission. Commissioner Wold asked Chief
Sturgis what kind of changes he would propose for the Civil Service Commission to allow the hiring
process to be more fluid and expedite making hiring decisions if the Civil Service Commission remains in
place.
Chief Sturgis stated he would like to see a more open process where applications are accepted on an
ongoing basis. He stated two candidates from the last process were high on other department hiring
lists and having an open process and list would allow the department to move quickly in hiring and
compete with other agencies who are interested in hiring the same candidates.
Commissioner Wold requested Chief Sturgis consider changes that could be proposed to the legislature
to revise the state statute pertaining to Civil Service Commissions that would allow the commission to be
more fluid and better able to accommodate department hiring needs.
Council Member Rosenquist informed Commissioner Wold it is important to be realistic about legislative
priorities especially because they can take many years. She stated the City has already identified
priorities and proposed them to our state representatives on issues like police arbitration reform and
were advised that these will likely not gain traction this year given a divided legislature and urgent
measures to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Council Member Rosenquist advised that the Council
has already discussed the Civil Service Commission and members have agreed to eliminate it and move
forward with a new commission. Council Member Rosenquist stated she is excited to work with the task
force to re-imagine community involvement in public safety in a modern way and to replace the current
structure with a new one that will serve the goals identified by the task force members.
Commissioner Kumagai thanked Chief Sturgis for his openness with the commission and stated she
especially appreciates the statistical and demographic data from the officer hiring process that was
provided to commissioners.
Election of Officers
Per state statute, the commissioner in the last year of his/her term is the designated chair of the
commission. Commissioner Kumagai will serve as chair beginning May 1, 2021.

Agenda Item
3. D. 2. Award Contract for 1-394 Inflow and Infiltration Phase 3 City Project#21-24
Prepared By
Jeff Oliver P.E., City Engineer
R.J. Kakach, P.E., Assistant City Engineer
Summary
In 2015, the City of Golden Valley entered an agreement with Short Elliott Hendrickson (SEH), Inc. to
evaluate the capacity of the 1-394 sewershed. Due to redevelopment in the area, it was confirmed that
flow issues were present in the larger diameter sanitary sewer pipes within the 1-394 corridor. Findings
from the study concluded that it was more cost effective to eliminate inflow and infiltration (I&I) by
rehabilitating the existing sanitary sewer mains than to replace and upsize the larger mains.
Phase 1 of the 1-394 Inflow and Infiltration Project occurred in 2017 and included main lining, service
connection lining, and manhole lining. Based on recent televising of the sanitary sewer system, Phase 2
of the project focused more closely on smaller diameter mainline lining of the sanitary sewer in the
neighborhood east of Brookview Community Center. Phase 3 will take the same approach as Phase 2,
lining smaller diameter mainline sanitary sewer pipes in the same area. The City entered into an
agreement with SEH, Inc. on January 5, 2021 for design and construction services on the 1-394 Inflow
and Infiltration Phase 3 City Project#21-24.
Staff solicited bids for the 1-394 Inflow and Infiltration Phase 3 Project. Bids were opened On April 1,
2021. The following five bids were received:
SJ Louis Construction, Inc. $158,871.00
Visu-Sewer, Inc. $164,203.80
HydroKlean Solutions $175,074.30
Michels Corporation $185,790.00
Insituform Technologies, USA, Inc. $193,475.90
The bids were reviewed and determined to be accurate and in order.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The total cost for SEH to provide design and construction services and for SJ Louis to line sanitary
sewer as part of the 1-394 1&1 Phase 3 project is $199,470. Anticipated funding for the project is
included in the Water and Sewer 2021 CIP Program (W&SS-074) in the amount of$250,000.
City Council Regular Meeting Executive Summary 2
City of Golden Valley
April 20,2021
Staff will work with the contractor to determine a construction schedule for mid to late 2021.
Recommended Action

Golden Valley City Council Meeting
April 20, 2021
Agenda Item
3. G. 2019 and 2020 Fund Balance Assignment
Prepared By
Sue Virnig, Finance Director
Summary
The City of Golden Valley seeks to have a good balance in its General Fund in order to have sufficient
reserves for cash flow, projects, and unexpected shortfalls or emergencies. In December 2011, the City
established a formal policy that states the level of fund balance should be maintained at 60 percent of
adopted expenditures in the General Fund. Adequate reserves indicate fiscal prudence and help the
City maintain a high rating with bond-rating agencies, which prefer to see very strong and healthy
balances.
When the fund balance is greater than 60 percent, it shall be reduced to 60 percent by using the excess
funds for long-term debt reduction specific one-time projects, acquisitions, or transfers to capital funds
to lessen the future impact on the property tax rate. The last few years, Council has had debt reduction
as a financial wellness priority in their Pyramid of Success.
In 2019, General Fund had unassigned fund balance of$1,351,348. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic,
staff recommended early April, 2020 assigning $1,350,000 for any anticipated future needs in 2020.
Due to reductions such as not hiring seasonal employees, delay public works projects, and receiving
CARES Funds for certain expenditures this assignment was not used. Also, cost containment in 2020
lead to an additional amount of$2,100,000.
Staff is recommending the following transfers of unassigned fund balance: transfer$2,350,000 to the
debt service fund to pay off the 2010A PMP Bonds and 2011A PMP Bonds and transfer$1,000,000 to
the building fund for future needs.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The assignment of 2020 fund balance reduces future bonded debt levies needed to make debt service
payments and less debt outstanding of$2,285,000 plus interest for the remaining term on the 2010A
PMP bonds and the 2011A PMP bonds. The $1,100,000 transfer to the building fund will finance future
needs of city buildings.

Agenda Item
3. H. Authorizing the Redemption of the 2010A and 2011A General Obligation Bonds
Prepared By
Sue Virnig, Finance Director
Summary
The Pavement Management Program (PMP) is funded by the proceeds of General Regulation Bonds
and special assessments.The bonds are a 20-year term and the benefitting property owner paying the
special assessment over a 10-year period.
In 2020, unassigned fund balance of$2,350,000 was allocated to pay off the 2010A and 2011A bonds.
This allocation will lower future bonded debt levies and total outstanding debt.
Staff is recommending the 2010A and 2011A bonds to be redeemed. The bonds will be called and
settle on June 1, 2021. The following settlement will be made from the Pavement Management Debt
Service Fund in the amount of$2,316,646.56. This amount is a little under what was presented at the
Council Manager meeting on April 14. The remainder will help fund future debt service payments.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The assignment of 2020 fund balance reduces future bonded debt levies needed to make debt service
payments and less debt outstanding of$2,285,000 plus interest for the remaining term on the 2010A
PMP bonds and the 2011A PMP bonds.

* The City reserves the right, after proposals are opened and prior to award, to increase or reduce the principal
amount of the Bonds or the amount of any maturity or maturities in multiples of$5,000. In the event the
amount of any maturity is modified, the aggregate purchase price will be adjusted to result in the same gross
spread per$1,000 of Bonds as that of the original proposal. Gross spread for this purpose is the differential
between the price paid to the City for the new issue and the prices at which the proposal indicates the securities
will be initially offered to the investingpublic.
Proposals for the Bonds may contain a maturity schedule providing for a combination of serial bonds and
term bonds. All term bonds shall be subject to mandatory sinking fund redemption at a price of par plus
accrued interest to the date of redemption scheduled to conform to the maturity schedule set forth above.
In order to designate term bonds, the proposal must specify "Years of Term Maturities" in the spaces
provided on the proposal form.
BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM
The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of Bonds made to
the public. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form and one Bond, representing the aggregate
principal amount of the Bonds maturing in each year, will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as
nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"),New York,New York, which will act as securities
depository for the Bonds. Individual purchases of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of$5,000
or any multiple thereof of a single maturity through book entries made on the books and records of DTC
and its participants. Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as registered
owner of the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments to participants of DTC will be the
responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by participants will
be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of beneficial owners. The lowest bidder(the
"Purchaser"), as a condition of delivery of the Bonds,will be required to deposit the Bonds with DTC.
REGISTRAR
The City will name the registrar which shall be subject to applicable regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The City will pay for the services of the registrar.
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The City may elect on February 1, 2030, and on any day thereafter, to redeem Bonds due on or after
February 1, 2031. Redemption may be in whole or in part and if in part at the option of the City and in
such manner as the City shall determine. If less than all Bonds of a maturity are called for redemption,the
City will notify DTC of the particular amount of such maturity to be redeemed. DTC will determine by lot
the amount of each participant's interest in such maturity to be redeemed and each participant will then
select by lot the beneficial ownership interests in such maturity to be redeemed. All redemptions shall be
at a price of par plus accrued interest.
SECURITY AND PURPOSE
A-2
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which the City will pledge its full faith and credit and
power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes. In addition,the City will pledge special assessments from
benefited properties for repayment of a portion of the Bonds. The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to
finance the City's 2021 Pavement Management Program.
BANK QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS
The City will designate the Bonds as qualified tax-exempt obligations for purposes of Section 265(b)(3)of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
BIDDING PARAMETERS
Proposals shall be for not less than $3,561,740 plus accrued interest, if any, on the total principal amount
of the Bonds. No proposal can be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals on the
Sale Date unless the meeting of the City scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or
continued to another date without award of the Bonds having been made. Rates shall be in integral multiples
of 1/100 or 1/8 of 1%. The initial price to the public for each maturity as stated on the proposal must be
98.0%or greater. Bonds of the same maturity shall bear a single rate from the date of the Bonds to the date
of maturity. No conditional proposals will be accepted.
ESTABLISHMENT OF ISSUE PRICE
In order to provide the City with information necessary for compliance with Section 148 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively,
the "Code"), the Purchaser will be required to assist the City in establishing the issue price of the Bonds
and shall complete,execute,and deliver to the City prior to the closing date,a written certification in a form
acceptable to the Purchaser, the City, and Bond Counsel (the "Issue Price Certificate") containing the
following for each maturity of the Bonds (and, if different interest rates apply within a maturity, to each
separate CUSIP number within that maturity): (1) the interest rate; (ii) the reasonably expected initial
offering price to the "public" (as said term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.148-1(f) (the
"Regulation")) or the sale price; and (iii) pricing wires or equivalent communications supporting such
offering or sale price. Any action to be taken or documentation to be received by the City pursuant hereto
may be taken or received on behalf of the City by Baker Tilly MA.
The City intends that the sale of the Bonds pursuant to this Terms of Proposal shall constitute a"competitive
sale" as defined in the Regulation based on the following:
(1) the City shall cause this Terms of Proposal to be disseminated to potential bidders
in a manner that is reasonably designed to reach potential bidders;
(ii) all bidders shall have an equal opportunity to submit a bid;
(iii) the City reasonably expects that it will receive bids from at least three bidders that
have established industry reputations for underwriting municipal bonds such as the Bonds;
and
(iv) the City anticipates awarding the sale of the Bonds to the bidder who provides a
proposal with the lowest true interest cost, as set forth in this Terms of Proposal (See
"AWARD"herein).
Any bid submitted pursuant to this Terms of Proposal shall be considered a firm offer for the purchase of
the Bonds, as specified in the proposal. The Purchaser shall constitute an "underwriter" as said term is
defined in the Regulation. By submitting its proposal, the Purchaser confirms that it shall require any
agreement among underwriters,a selling group agreement,or other agreement to which it is a party relating
to the initial sale of the Bonds,to include provisions requiring compliance with the provisions of the Code
and the Regulation regarding the initial sale of the Bonds.
A-3
If all of the requirements of a"competitive sale" are not satisfied, the City shall advise the Purchaser of
such fact prior to the time of award of the sale of the Bonds to the Purchaser. In such event,any proposal
submitted will not be subject to cancellation or withdrawal. Within twenty-four(24)hours of the notice
of award of the sale of the Bonds, the Purchaser shall advise the City and Baker Tilly MA if 10% of any
maturity of the Bonds (and, if different interest rates apply within a maturity, to each separate CUSIP
number within that maturity)has been sold to the public and the price at which it was sold. The City will
treat such sale price as the "issue price" for such maturity, applied on a maturity-by-maturity basis. The
City will not require the Purchaser to comply with that portion of the Regulation commonly described as
the "hold-the-offering-price" requirement for the remaining maturities, but the Purchaser may elect such
option. If the Purchaser exercises such option, the City will apply the initial offering price to the public
provided in the proposal as the issue price for such maturities. If the Purchaser does not exercise that option,
it shall thereafter promptly provide the City and Baker Tilly MA the prices at which 10%of such maturities
are sold to the public;provided such determination shall be made and the City and Baker Tilly MA notified
of such prices whether or not the closing date has occurred,until the 10%test has been satisfied as to each
maturity of the Bonds or until all of the Bonds of a maturity have been sold.
GOOD FAITH DEPOSIT
To have its proposal considered for award,the Purchaser is required to submit a good faith deposit via wire
transfer to the City in the amount of$36,050(the "Deposit")no later than 1:00 P.M., Central Time on the
Sale Date. The Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the timely delivery of its Deposit, and neither the
City nor Baker Tilly MA have any liability for delays in the receipt of the Deposit. If the Deposit is not
received by the specified time,the City may, at its sole discretion,reject the proposal of the lowest bidder,
direct the second lowest bidder to submit a Deposit, and thereafter award the sale to such bidder.
A Deposit will be considered timely delivered to the City upon submission of a federal wire reference
number by the specified time. Wire transfer instructions will be available from Baker Tilly MA following
the receipt and tabulation of proposals. The successful bidder must send an e-mail including the following
information: (1) the federal reference number and time released; (ii) the amount of the wire transfer; and
(iii)the issue to which it applies.
Once an award has been made,the Deposit received from the Purchaser will be retained by the City and no
interest will accrue to the Purchaser. The amount of the Deposit will be deducted at settlement from the
purchase price. In the event the Purchaser fails to comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be
retained by the City.
AWARD
The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true interest cost
(TIC) basis calculated on the proposal prior to any adjustment made by the City. The City's computation
of the interest rate of each proposal,in accordance with customary practice,will be controlling.
The City will reserve the right to: (1)waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of matters
relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (n)reject all proposals without cause, and
(iii)reject any proposal that the City determines to have failed to comply with the terms herein.
A-4
BOND INSURANCE AT PURCHASER'S OPTION
The City has not applied for or pre-approved a commitment for any policy of municipal bond insurance
with respect to the Bonds. If the Bonds qualify for municipal bond insurance and a bidder desires to
purchase a policy,such indication,the maturities to be insured,and the name of the desired insurer must be
set forth on the bidder's proposal. The City specifically reserves the right to reject any bid specifying
municipal bond insurance, even though such bid may result in the lowest TIC to the City. All costs
associated with the issuance and administration of such policy and associated ratings and expenses (other
than any independent rating requested by the City) shall be paid by the successful bidder. Failure of the
municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after the award of the Bonds shall not constitute cause for failure
or refusal by the successful bidder to accept delivery of the Bonds.
CUSIP NUMBERS
If the Bonds qualify for the assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the Bonds;
however, neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto will
constitute cause for failure or refusal by the Purchaser to accept delivery of the Bonds. Baker Tilly MA
will apply for CUSIP numbers pursuant to Rule G-34 implemented by the Municipal Securities Rulemaking
Board. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers shall be
paid by the Purchaser.
SETTLEMENT
On or about June 3, 2021,the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the Purchaser through DTC in New
York, New York. Delivery will be subject to receipt by the Purchaser of an approving legal opinion of
Kennedy & Graven, Chartered of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and of customary closing papers, including a
no-litigation certificate. On the date of settlement, payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal, or
equivalent, funds that shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than 12:00 Noon,
Central Time. Unless compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds has been made impossible by
action of the City,or its agents,the Purchaser shall be liable to the City for any loss suffered by the City by
reason of the Purchaser's non-compliance with said terms for payment.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
In accordance with SEC Rule 15c2-12(b)(5),the City will undertake, pursuant to the resolution awarding
sale of the Bonds,to provide annual reports and notices of certain events. A description of this undertaking
is set forth in the Official Statement. The Purchaser's obligation to purchase the Bonds will be conditioned
upon receiving evidence of this undertaking at or prior to delivery of the Bonds.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The City has authorized the preparation of a Preliminary Official Statement containing pertinent
information relative to the Bonds, and said Preliminary Official Statement has been deemed final by the
City as of the date thereof within the meaning of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
For an electronic copy of the Preliminary Official Statement or for any additional information prior to sale,
any prospective purchaser is referred to the Municipal Advisor to the City,Baker Tilly Municipal Advisors,
LLC, by telephone (651)223-3000, or by email bondservicegbakertilly.com. The Preliminary Official

A Final Official Statement(as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12)will be prepared,specifying the maturity
dates, principal amounts, and interest rates of the Bonds, together with any other information required by
law. By awarding the Bonds to the Purchaser,the City agrees that,no more than seven business days after
the date of such award,it shall provide to the Purchaser an electronic copy of the Final Official Statement.
The City designates the Purchaser as its agent for purposes of distributing the Final Official Statement to
A-5
each syndicate member, if applicable. The Purchaser agrees that if its proposal is accepted by the City,

Code to correct confusing and/or conflicting language, create consistency with approval procedures,
remove and replace antiquated language, and create a new section to allow for, regulate, and detail
licensing requirements in regard to the sale of consumer fireworks in the City. The proposed changes
to address these matters are located in Sections 18-1, 20-24, and creating new Sections 16-500
through 16-514 of the City Code.
Recommended Action
Motion to adopt Second Consideration of Ordinance No. 709—Amendment to City Code Sections 18-1,

April 20, 2021
Agenda Item
6. B. Second Consideration of Ordinance No. 710, Amending City Code Section 2-43, Relating to Salary
Adjustments of Mayor and Council Members
Prepared By
Theresa Schyma, City Clerk
Summary
As per City Code, Council salaries are reviewed every two years preceding the city election. Staff has
provided the percentage increase representing the average salary or wage increase for the City non-
union employees for the previous two years at 4%total; 3% in 2020 and 1% in 2021. The increase
would begin January 1, 2022, and has been reflected in the 2021-2022 Biennial Budget. The salary
increase is reflected below:
Current Salary New Salary
Mayor $13,530 $14,071
Council Members $10,126 $10,531
The first reading of the proposed ordinance occurred at the April 6 City Council meeting. At that
meeting, the Council reviewed and commented on new language in the ordinance to make future
adjustments automatic based on the formula already being utilized to determine proposed increases
for Council. Language was also added to the proposed ordinance to include the option for a waiver to
give future Councils some flexibility.
As evidenced in the attached salary survey, current wages for Council Members are similar to those of
other comparable cities in the metro area and the proposed numbers referenced above would stay in
that range as well. Planned Council salary increases ensure pay equity for all prospective Council
Members and eliminates the Council Members having to advocate for their own pay. Basically, the new
language takes a more administrative approach to Council wage adjustments in order to keep salaries
current and in line with the important and time-consuming work that is part of the job of being a
Council Member.
Financial Or Budget Considerations
The proposed increase would begin January 1, 2022, and has been reflected in the 2021-2022 Biennial
Budget. All subsequent automatic adjustments would be factored into future budget planning.

Agenda Item
6. C. First Consideration of Ordinance No. 711, Amending City Code Chapter 8, Relating to Emergency
Management
Prepared By
Maria Cisneros, City Attorney
Summary
The events of this past year have caused staff to research various methods to address emergency
situations in the most efficient and judicious manner possible. Currently, the City Manager manages
regulatory changes required to address day-to-day issues related to existing local emergencies through
Emergency Administrative Actions. This process was created at the beginning of the COVID-19
pandemic because City Code does not contain an emergency management process. Staff would like to
establish a new process for emergency management through the proposed ordinance. This ordinance
would prepare the City to adequately deal with potential emergencies, it would ensure the City
complies with provisions of Minn. Stat. § 12.25, which requires all cities to establish a local
organization for emergency management, and would give the Mayor the ability to create emergency
regulations when required.

ORDINANCE NO. 711
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY CODE
AMENDING CHAPTER 8 OF THE CITY CODE RELATED TO
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
The City Council of the City of Golden Valley hereby ordains as follows:
Section 1. City Code Chapter 8 is renamed "Emergency Management and
Services".
Section 2. City Code Chapter 8, Article I, is repealed, replaced, renamed, and
shall read as follows:
ARTICLE I. — EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
Sec. 8-1. — Policy and Purpose.
The City Council determines that the city of Golden Valley should be prepared to
adequately deal with potential emergencies and disasters of major size and
destruction resulting from natural or man-made causes. In addition, the City
should generally provide for the common defense, preserve the lives and
property of the people of the City, and protect the public peace, health, safety,
and general welfare. To accomplish these goals, the City Council determines
that it is appropriate and necessary to:
(a) establish a city emergency management organization responsible for
planning and preparation for emergency government operations in time of
disasters;
(b) provide for the exercise of necessary powers during emergencies and
disasters;
(c) provide for the rendering of mutual aid between this city and other political
subdivisions of this state and of other states with respect to the carrying
out of emergency preparedness functions; and
(d) comply with provisions of Minn. Stat. chapter 12, § 12.25, which requires
each political subdivision of Minnesota to establish a local organization for
emergency management.
Sec. 8-2. — Definitions.
Except as otherwise defined herein, or where the context clearly indicates a
contrary intent, the words and terms defined in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 12,
shall be applicable to this Chapter.
Sec. 8-3. — Establishment of Emergency Management Organization.
The City Council shall designate a department to be the emergency management
organization for the City. The Mayor shall appoint the emergency management
director, who will have responsibility for the organization, administration and
operation of the emergency management organization, subject to the direction
and control of the City Manager.
Sec. 8-4. — Powers and Duties of the Director.
(a) The director, with the consent of the City Manager, may represent the City
at regional or state conferences for emergency management. The director
shall recommend to the City Council proposed mutual aid agreements with
other political subdivisions for reciprocal assistance in an emergency too
great to be handled unassisted. These agreements will be consistent with
the state comprehensive emergency plan.
(b) The director shall make studies and surveys of the personnel, industries,
resources and facilities of the City as deemed necessary to determine
their adequacy for emergency management and to plan for their most
efficient use in time of an emergency or disaster.
(c) The director shall prepare a comprehensive emergency plan for the
emergency preparedness of the City and will present this plan to the City
Council for approval. When the Council has approved the plan, it will be
the duty of all departments and all emergency preparedness forces of the
City to perform the duties and functions assigned by the approved
plan. The plan may be modified in the same manner. The director will
coordinate the emergency management activities of the City so that they
are fully integrated with the emergency plan of the federal government and
the state and correlated with emergency plans of other political
subdivisions within the state.
(d) In accordance with the state and county emergency plan, the director will
institute and conduct training programs, public information programs,
practice warning alerts, and emergency exercises as appropriate to
ensure prompt and effective operation of the city emergency plan when a
disaster occurs.
(e) The director will use the personnel, services, equipment, supplies and
facilities of existing departments and agencies of the City to the maximum
extent practicable. The officers and personnel of those departments and
agencies will, to the maximum extent practicable, cooperate with and
extend services and facilities to the director. The director will include the
head of each department in the planning and programming of emergency
activities that will involve the use of that department's resources.
(f) The director will, in cooperation with other departments and agencies
affected, assist in the organizing, recruiting and training of emergency
management personnel that may be required to carry out the emergency
plans of the city and state. If personnel are recruited to augment a regular
department for emergencies, they will be assigned to, and under the
administration and control of, that department.
(g) Consistent with state law, the director will coordinate the activity of
emergency management services and assist in establishing and
conducting training programs as appropriate to ensure emergency
operational capability.
(h) The director will carry out all lawful orders and regulations issued
regarding emergency management. The director, with the consent of the
City Manager, may issue directives to effectuate these orders and
regulations.
(i) The director shall act as advisor and coordinator to the City Manager and
be responsible for emergency operations during an emergency, unless
those duties are otherwise assigned. The director shall ensure
coordination among the operating departments, non-governmental groups,
and other governmental agencies.
(j) The director shall prepare and submit reports on emergency preparedness
activities as may be requested by the City Council.
Sec. 8-5. — Cooperation of City Officials, Departments.
Every officer and agency of the City shall cooperate with federal and state
authorities and with authorized agencies engaged in emergency measures to
the fullest possible extent consistent with the performance of their other duties.
The provisions of this chapter and of all regulations made hereunder shall be
subject to all applicable and controlling provisions of federal and state laws and
of regulations and orders issued thereunder, and shall be deemed to be
suspended and inoperative so far as there is any conflict therewith.
Sec. 8-6. — Declaration of Emergency.
(a) A local emergency may be declared only by written order or proclamation
of the Mayor or their legal successor. It shall not be continued for a
period in excess of three (3) days except by or with the consent of the
City Council. Any order or proclamation declaring, continuing, or
terminating a local emergency shall be given prompt and general
publicity and shall be filed promptly by the City Clerk.
(b) A declaration of a local emergency may invoke necessary portions of
the response and recovery aspects of applicable disaster plans, and
may authorize assistance under those plans.
(c) During any such emergency the mayor shall have the further authority
to impose curfew hours on public streets or other public places.
(d) Any declaration or emergency may be limited by the Mayor so as to
initiate only the curfew provisions of this chapter and such portions of
the emergency management plan which are deemed necessary to meet
the particular emergency.
Sec. 8-7. — Emergency Regulations.
(a) Whenever necessary to prepare for or manage an emergency for which
adequate regulations have not been adopted by the governor or the City
Council, the Mayor, by order or proclamation, may promulgate
regulations, consistent with applicable federal or state law or regulation,
governing the conduct of persons and the use of property during
emergencies; the repair, maintenance, and safeguarding of essential
public services; emergency health, fire, and safety regulation drills, or
practice periods required for preliminary training; and all other matters that
are reasonable necessary to protect public safety, health, and welfare in
declared emergencies. The Council may by emergency resolution adopt
regulations governing the same matters. The City Council may, by
resolution, modify or terminate any such regulations at any time. If not
sooner terminated, every such regulation shall expire at the end of the
emergency to which it relates.
(b) Every proclamation, order, or resolution of emergency regulations shall
be in writing and signed by the Mayor, shall be dated, shall refer to the
particular emergency to which it pertains, if so limited, and shall be
posted on the City website and filed in the office of the City Clerk, where
a copy shall be kept posted and available for public inspection during
business hours. Thereupon, the regulations shall take effect immediately
or at such later time as may be specified in the proclamation, order, or
resolution. By like proclamation, order or resolution, the Mayor or Council
may modify or terminate any such regulations.
Sec. 8-8. — Suspension of Inconsistent Rules.
Any ordinance, rule or regulation inconsistent with any emergency regulation
promulgated by the Mayor shall be suspended during the period of time and to
the extent that such conflict exists.
Sec. 8-9. — Municipal Emergency Powers.
During a declared emergency, the City may enter into contracts and incur
obligations necessary to combat the disaster by protecting the health and safety
of persons and property and providing emergency assistance to the victims of the
disaster. The City may do so without compliance with the time-consuming
procedures and formalities prescribed by law for the performance of public work,
rental or purchase of supplies, materials, and equipment and the appropriation
and expenditure of public funds.
Sec. 8-10. — Location of City Council Meetings
When an emergency or disaster makes it imprudent or impossible to conduct the
affairs of the City at its regular locations, the City Council may meet at any place,
inside or outside the City limits. A temporary disaster meeting location for the City
Council may continue until a new location is established or until the emergency
or disaster is terminated and the City Council is able to return to its normal
location.
Sec. 8-11. — Enforcement Authority
(a) The members of the City fire department, police department, other law
enforcement agencies having jurisdiction in the City, and other people
authorized by the Mayor, City Council, or Emergency Management
Director are authorized and directed to enforce this section and the orders
and regulations made pursuant to this section.
(b) During the period of a declared emergency, a person authorized under
this section may enter onto private property if the person has reasonable
grounds to believe that there is an immediate need for assistance for the
protection of life or property, and that entering onto the private land will
allow the person to take steps to alleviate or minimize immediate danger
to lives or property.
Sec. 8-12 — 8-20. — Reserved.
Section 3. This ordinance shall take effect from and after its passage and publication
as required by law.
Adopted by the City Council this 4th day of May, 2021.
