item number four, proclamations community foundation week. This is a long one. Whereas Hutchinson, Kansas recognizes the importance of our community's philanthropic sector and the critical importance of charitable giving from residents, businesses, and organizations. And whereas more than 790 community foundations across the US, Can I turn that down? Okay, it's fine. It's echoing. Um, sorry, I lost my place. And more than 100 in Kansas catalyze and promote the values and benefits of local philanthropy. And whereas for 36 years, the Hutchinson Community Foundation has made more than $115 million in grants to the community, established $386 funds, and provided tools for Hutchinson residents, businesses, and organizations to create permanent philanthropic resources for the current and future needs of our communities, allowing individuals from all walks of life to exercise generosity and be philanthropist in small, medium, and large ways. And whereas through the power of philanthropy, the community foundation also convenes residents around critical community issues and efforts, strengthens the nonprofits in our region, and works with partners to root and accelerate community wealth through local investments in businesses and projects that align with its mission and long-term community outcomes. And whereas together we can build a stronger Hutchinson, Reno County, and Kansas and improve the future by creating community legacies to benefit all residents. And whereas it is appropriate to set aside a time to recognize the value and impact

of philanthropy and community foundations on a local, regional, and state level for the investment, partnership, and leadership they create across Kansas communities. Now, therefore, I, Stacy Goss, mayor of the city of Hutchinson, Kansas, do hereby proclaim November 12th through 18, 2025 as Community Foundation Week. Would you like to say a few words? Okay. Do you want to take a picture before? After? Okay. [clears throat] And then I sit down.

Great. Perfect. Thank you. Okay. There were a lot of where's in that one, but you covered a lot of ground. [laughter] Thank you. Um, so I'm Carrie Mayor. I'm director of strategy for Hatchinson Community Foundation. Thank you, mayor, for the proclamation. Um, it's exciting to have uh, you know, a week for community foundations. Um, I also want to acknowledge uh, John Richardson as a board member for the community foundation, an incoming board chair, taking his seat in January. So, thank you for your leadership and your service to the community foundation and the community at large. Um, the proclamation covered a lot of ground. Um, but I just want to say I'm thankful for our partnership with the city. um in many many ways over the years, in particular currently on housing, economic development, and community engagement with the Love Where You Live Community Empowerment Initiative. Um we we couldn't do uh what we do without you all as great partners, and we hope you feel the same way about us. Um, we helped donors with their philanthropic goals, uh, through a variety of giving strategies while supporting roughly 75 nonprofits that serve Reno County through grant-making, strategic initiatives, capacity building, and leadership development. In short, we use our social, moral, intellectual, reputational, and financial capital to identify gaps, connect donors, and create solutions to adaptive challenges facing our communities. This is the time of year when we ask for contributions to the fund for Reno County, which is was established in 1990 as a permanent resource to meet our everchanging needs of Reno County. Since 1990, we have awarded $6.3 million in grants to Reno County projects and organizations from that fund. And just over in 2025, we have granted 56 grants totaling more than $510,000 to 48 organizations serving Reno County. Um, all of that is captured in a new grantmaking newsletter featuring the

Hutchinson Municipal Band on the cover um that should be landing in mailboxes soon. We have a goal of uh growing that the fund for county to $20 million by 2030, which would allow us to make $1 million in annually in grants. Um, we want to remind everyone that Giving Tuesday is coming up on December 2nd. That's a great opportunity to remember the organizations that you care about um in Reno County or beyond and consider a gift on Giving Tuesday um including our own fund for Reno County if you're inclined. Um and soon we look forward to coming back to sharing the second year of data from the love where you live resident perceptions perception survey and all of our grant opportunities for 2026. So again, thank you for your partnership um and the proclamation. [applause] Thank you. Next item, please.

Item number five, petitions, remmonstrances, and oral communications from the audience. Is there anyone here in the audience to speak? Seeing none, we will move on to the next item. Item number six, consent agenda. Any remarks or questions from councel? No. No. [clears throat and cough] No. Looking for a motion to approve. I move to approve the consent agenda and authorize the mayor to sign. Thank you. Second. Second. Richardson, yes. Garza, yes. Bass, yes. Mayers, yes. Goss, yes. Next item, please.

Item number seven, ordinances and resolutions. A consider an ordinance authorizing the issuance and delivery of $1,820,000 principal amount of general obligation improvement bond series 2025C of the city of Hutchinson, Kansas and providing for the levy and collection of an annual tax for the purpose of paying the principle of and interest on the bonds as they become due.

Angela Richard, director of finance. We had a bond sale and a temporary note sale this morning. So, to start, we'll go over the bond sale. Um, you have a handout in front of you that shows that we had three bids on the general obligation um bonds. Um, ranging from 3.85% to 3.95%. With all those three bids being so close, it was a very competitive bid, which is good. Um, the 3.85 851 offered us a premium and with that premium we're able to reduce the actual bond size. So that is why um the bond amount went down to 1,820,000. As a reminder, this is to fund the Woody C Avenue C bridge repairs and traffic traffic signal improvements. Um, legal counsel and bond council has reviewed the ordinance and the bids and we recommend approving awarding the bid to the Brownstone Investments and um authorizing the ordinance.

I have a question on is it 1,00 1,820,000 or 1,920,000 is on the 1,820,000 on the Yes. So, because they offer us a premium upfront, we're able to reduce that bond size. And I believe Emma Kate from Coutac Rock is um on the line with us, too. If you have any questions, I just want to make sure it wasn't a typo on what we were provided with. Is not it. That's why the original amount is in brackets because we knew there'd probably be a premium and it the amount would change. Okay. Thank you.

It's very typical. Any additional remarks from council? Give me a second. I have the wrong agenda pulled up. I have the [cough and clears throat] two page instead of the full um like I thought. page 206.

Yeah. Well, I don't have it at all. So, here it is. Okay. You can move on while I find it. There it is. Is there anybody in the audience here to speak on this item?

Seeing none, I'm looking for a motion from council. I'll move to approve an ordinance authorizing the issuance and delivery of 1,820,000 principal amount of general obligation improvement bonds series 2025 C of the city of Hutchson, Kansas and providing for the levy and collection of an annual tax for the purpose of paying the principle of and interest on the bonds as they become due and authorized the mayor to sign. Second. Richardson, yes. Garza, yes. Fast. Yes. Mayers. Yes. Goss. Yes.

Item B, consider a resolution prescribing the form and details of and authorizing the delivery of 1,820,000 principal amount of general obligation bonds series 2025C of the city of Hutchinson, Kansas, previously authorized by an ordinance of the city. So this is the section second action um required to accept the bids for the general obligation bonds and issue them. This uh resolution prescribes the form and details um the details of how they're going to be issued and everything. So this will this is recommended to be approved by council. Again this has been reviewed by legal and bond counsel as well. Any questions or remarks from councel?

No. No. No. Looking for a motion. I move to approve a resolution prescribing the form and details of and authorizing the delivery of 1,820,000 principal amount of general obligation bonds series 20 2025 C of the city of Hutcherson, Kansas. Previously authorized by an ordinance of the city and authorized the mayor to sign. Second. Richardson. Yes. Garza. Yes. Fast. Yes. Mayers. Yes. [clears throat] Yes.

Item C, consider a resolution authorizing the issuance and delivery of 10,960,000 principal amount of general obligation temporary notes series 2025D of the city of Hutchinson, Kansas for the purpose of temporarily financing the cost of certain internal improvements of the city and amending resolution number 2025 R31. No. No, we're not amending that. We took that part off.

Okay. So, we also um had a sale for temporary notes. This is for the water rights that we intend to purchase. Um so, this amount originally was 11,435,000. You'll see in front of you the bids for this. Again, we had three bids ranging from 3.37% to 3.49%. Again, very competitive, very good rates. So, we are happy with those rates. Um, Robert W. Beard Enco um will be awarded that. And because that rate is lower than we expected, um we're able to lower the amount that we are issuing. So it will be the 10,960,000 um instead of the 11,435. So again um legal and bond council has reviewed the documents, they have reviewed the bids and they are recommending approval

and the language in the action item is correct. If it says um an amending resolution, we don't have to do that. They decided we don't have to. Okay. Any remarks or questions from council? No. No. No. Is there anybody in the audience here to speak on this item? Seeing none, I'm looking for a motion to approve. Move to approve. Consider a resolution authorizing the issuance and delivery of $10,960,000 principal amount of general obligation temporary notes series 2025D of the city of Hutcherson, Kansas for the purpose of temporarily financing the cost of certain internal improvements of the city and authorize the mayor to sign.

Second. Richardson, yes. Garza, yes. Fast, yes. Mayors, yes. Cost, yes. Thank you.

Thank you. Item eight, new business. A, consider bid results for 24-10 spyglass hills water main project. [clears throat] Good evening, council. Uh, Justin Kum, construction manager, engineering division. Uh the purpose of this project is uh to install 8 in water mane valves and fire hydrants on Cherry Hills Drive from Spyglass Drive to Jupiter Hills Drive, Fox Fire Street from Spy Glassass Drive to Cherry Hills Drive. So, and then this line would connect to the existing 8-in water mane on Spyglass that also goes south on Jupiter Hills. uh anticipated project uh start date would be in early 2026 uh potentially February if uh what the contractor is telling me stays true and substantial completion on it is set for May 1st. So uh Jo designed this project and uh sealed the project. Um this uh project uh got to us because um on August 6th uh the resolution was approved for the Spy Glass Hills Benefit District and we had two bids that were open November 4th. Uh the low bid was submitted by APAC Kansas in the amount of $330,53.50. Uh the bid is below engineer's estimate which is $348,250. Uh after reviewing the bids, uh everything looked to be in line with market uh prices. Uh no surprises. Uh we believe is very competitive. Um we had only about three contractors interested and we only had two that ended up bidding. Um Apac has done several projects for us recently. Um and some of those have been full waterline projects. So pretty happy with their work over the years. Um, our recommendation is that council approve the low bid and award

the project to APAC Kansas Incorporated in the amount of 330,53.50. I stand for any questions you have. Was the estimate done in-house or was that estimate done by JU? It was done by JO. Okay. And so it was it was actually updated a couple weeks before we let the bid. So it did increase a little bit from when the benefits district was drafted. Uh but I think in the benefits district we set the total price to be 480,000 and so we're actually sitting with these numbers about 45,000 under. So that was some good contingency and some buffer in case things come up. So Okay. And this project originated from a resident petition. Is that right? That is correct. Started last was it last summer? Yes.

Okay. Yep. Um I have two questions about the properties and if you can answer them um that's fine. Maybe Mr. Vgas could chime in. Um, are there any empty lots in this area that are potential sites to build on or are these all It's my understanding that if they're already I don't believe there's any vacant lots, but uh the benefits district as a whole had 100% agreeance and they actually brought to the table how they wanted to split it. So, I I don't believe there's any conflict or any issues with how it's being deviated between the properties. Okay. Okay. It's my understanding. There is there is one lot out there for sale. Okay. And it's not owned by like a neighboring

Yeah, it's owned by like a neighboring, but I think they got that all figured out, too. So, Okay. Um, and are all of the lots that will be new connections within [clears throat] the city limits? I I believe that whole neighborhood is city limits and this project is only putting in Maine and is not doing actual service connections. That would go through the typical process. So, this is just Maine. So, okay. Are can you answer that? Are all of these properties that would be on the new line within the city limits?

Uh, I can certainly say that if they intend to connect to or already connected to the line but are in the city limits but have not been annexed that it would be the intention of the city to annex said properties.

Okay. So, uh, while not related to this, um, the policy, the special assessment policy, staff is working on that and we are adding language um that that just to make it clear that if you want city water that you have to be annexed into the city. Uh and then in uh working with you, mayor, on some language um that say essentially if someone were to owe uh back taxes to the city, um I'll hypothetically say $100,000 is owed to the city and property taxes. Uh under the current policy, um they could still take advantage of the special assessment policy. Uh with the new policy, the language would be that you have to pay up if you want to take advantage of the special assessment policy. So, it's to make the city whole if you want further uh further breaks. So,

thank you. That answers my questions. Any um questions or remarks from council? No. Nope. Is there anybody in the audience here to speak on this item? Seeing none, I'm looking for a motion to approve. I'll move to accept the low bid of Apac Kansas for the 2010 Spyclass Hills Water Man project in the amount of $330,53.50 and authorize staff to issue the notice of award and begin work on drafting the project contracts and authorize the mayor to sign. Second. Richardson, yes. Garza, yes. Bas. Yes. Mayers.

Yes. Yes. [clears throat] Item 8B, annexation of land adjoining the city prairie partners property.

Paul Brown, city attorney. This a petition and consent for annexation has been submitted to the city by AV-PL Properties LLC. Mr. McHune is present in the audience. This is the Prairieland Partners facility at K61 and US Highway 50. They are seeking to expand their facility and they need to include some additional acreage uh within their their project. And it didn't make it into the agenda packet, but it did provide you a copy of the survey so you could have an idea of what's being included. It's just a little less than uh 7 acres. uh and it would allow them to complete their project and I think they have uh uh maybe a desire to issue bonds in the future for for the project. So that's the the purpose of this. It's not a burden to the city in any way. Um the uh and I I'll tell you also by looking at the tract we looked at originally said why don't you just put the whole tract in there? Well, if you look at the map, Cow Creek waves back and forth on the eastern side of that property and so it can't really be developed u unless you want to canoe. Um so, uh this will help them out a great deal. Uh and we are uh certainly uh positive about the expansion of this facility. Prairie Land Partners has been a business in Hutchinson for a long long time and we would ask the council to approve the annexation ordinance.

Is this the um same company that was at the Chamber of Breakfast last week? Mhm. It's a partnership with uh I believe the college and the Yeah, that's really exciting. Dealership there. Um, do we know if they're pursuing IRBs or the NRP for those improvements? Randy found them out. I just answered a couple questions. Uh, yeah.

Going to put a a little over 60,000 square foot addition on to the east side. Believe it or not, anything that we wanted to add on to was in the country. So, the property line was right up next to it. So, we needed to get that inside the city limits. uh going to like I said 60,000 square ft² shop going to have about 20 service bays in comm community in conjunction with the HCC they're going to have two classrooms two offices and four dedicated bays that they use whenever they're in session it'll be in the south excuse me the north northwest corner of the addition they'll have their own entrance and everything there'll be sign on says community college so anxious to uh expand in for sure.

Yeah, it was exciting news for us the other morning at the at the farm breakfast that the chamber put on. And again, partnership is good with the college and and it's and and just to be clear, it's completely separate from the dealership. Although it's connected, it's separate. Isn't that what you got from that? It is inside the footprint of the building. Yeah. But it is divided. There is a wall that separates it. Yeah. their own their own entrance, restrooms, break room, offices, and there is a wall separating their shop from the rest of the shop. Yeah. So, and so did you say you're adding 20 bays? Yes. Wow. Okay. And then two of those are for the college. Four. Four are for the college. Thank you.

Okay. Awesome. I didn't realize it was that much. Um yeah, that that's really exciting. Um, I think the the thing that I really enjoyed at the um, Chamber of Breakfast was when Deborah Tupel stated that Reno County has like a 1.4 billion dollar um, a industry. Um, I didn't realize that that and that's absolutely amazing. And you guys will be primed to graduate John Deere certified um, right out of technicians right out of here. So, there's two ways to get technicians. You either grow them or steal them. and we found that it's easier to grow them. Yeah, that's awesome. [clears throat] I I love that you guys are helping to invest in

in the a world and in the the future of our our students here. So, um council, any additional remarks or questions, council? Thank you, sir. Um, I move to approve an ordinance annexing certain land within the limits and boundaries of the city of Hutchinson, a track generally east and north of the intersection of US Highway 61 and US Highway 50, and authorize the mayor to sign. I'll second. Thank you. Richardson, yes. Garza, yes. Bass, yes. Mayor, yes. Goss, yes. Item number nine, report of city officials. Craig, do you want to go first? I went first last time. [laughter] Scott, do you want to go first? No, Garza can go first.

Okay, I got I've been going. We got time. You're trying to get out of here before 5. Oh man, I thought I was going to be God. Anyway, as you can tell, the city of Hutch is working really, really hard. We're doing a lot of things that's going on like this. So, I just want to tell the audience and people listening or on TV that we're doing a great job. I think we're doing a great job. and um just keep us in mind and back us. We have to have your backing if we're going to get Hush to go. So remember to help help us out and back us and listen. That's all I got. Thank you, John.

Um yeah, I I would like to um I would ask the council put on the agenda a discussion item for the second meeting in December. I would like to discuss compensation for Hutchinson City Council for future councils, not for the current council. Wait a minute. For people that run for city council in the future to try to get people that can to run and take time off of work because [clears throat] people don't run. A lot of people don't run because they can't afford to take time off work. I would like to consider that and discuss it at the next at the second uh city council meeting in December, December 16th.

Mhm. Um what say you Paul? Is this binding action for future council? Can we have that discussion? I mean how does you can have the discussion at the second meeting in December. Uh the thing that you're probably going to run into is that you've already done the budget for next year, right? I'm talking for future elected officials. Yeah. [snorts] So you may want to consider that for future budgets, right? Okay.

You could approve it as as a part of the overall budget, right? I feel like the only way we can legitimately legitimately have this discussion if it's not if it's not for any of us on city council or anyone that's been voted in, sorry, but for possible to to try to encourage people to run for city council in the future. And if if not, I think we need to work with other uh small towns and communities in rural areas to try to petition our state senators and US senators to try to find some type of IRS tax deduction, something to try to help encourage to run for boards and committees in rural America because you look at the last election, a lot of them were left empty. Yeah.

You're going to give away your whole argument and not have anything to say on December 16. vet it, discuss it. And and just just to give you kudos, you had that idea 3 years ago, 3 or four years ago when you and I were seated and you know, I took that idea to Senator Moran and he kind of went, hm. So may I don't know what the next step is. I mean, we we I've planted the seed and I think it's it's an interesting idea that maybe we just get a tax deduction at the very least. Um but great thinking outside the box. But at the very minimum we can at least talk about it.

Yeah, we will on December 16th. Sounds good. I appreciate it. That's all I have. Anything else you want to talk about at a future meeting? Yeah. Uh anything I have to talk about will be at meetings after January where I [laughter] come up and tell you all what you're doing wrong. Great. I can't wait. It'll be awesome. I'll be limited to five minutes so I'll be quick. You will. [laughter] Yes. Unlike now when you still have I'm good. Okay. Um Greg,

um thanks to city staff as usual for for listening to me and helping me with uh a couple issues that citizens have brought to my attention. Thank you always for your hard work. It is appreciated by myself. Um we'll continue to keep moving forward. Thank you. Um, so I want to I I want to comment on I feel like a comm as a community council, um, city staff, everybody that I think is uh involved with everything in Hutchinson, we are all trying to move this in a positive direction. Um, I I get disheartened sometimes when I read things online that we're up here just not trying thinking about the community and not trying to take Hutchinson in a positive direction. And I appreciate Mr. Richardson's comment the other night on a new um business venture that's coming to town and sometimes we don't always get what we want but it's always moving Hutchinson in a positive direction and so I just want to make everyone aware that we are up here trying to do the best for Hutchinson as we can and it's not an easy job. We're not going to make everybody happy but um we're up here in the best interest of our community. So if you have any questions you can always feel free to contact us. So that's all I have.

Awesome. Um, I do want to say congratulations to Mr. Truman on winning his election. Um, it's exciting to have you up here um, in January. We will miss you so much, John. Come back and visit anytime. Um, Mr. I guess I was under the impression that we had a housing um, something from Miss Paxton. It was on the consent agenda.

It was the consent agenda. Okay. Thank you. Um I thought she had had a presentation and a special item that got moved. Okay. Um yeah, a couple of things that um I want to bring up about the special assessment like we talked about and if you could uh Miss Briggs add that to wherever it makes sense here in the next couple of meetings. Um the goal of that so council knows like he said is so that when we're awarding any type of contract to whether it's a nuisance abatement company or an IRB or anything like that that we've done our due diligence as a city to understand do they have current code violations? Do they have current taxes that are due? are they are they um you know good partners not only in that did they like win the being the lowest bid but are they also um good in the community. So um I think that's important to um we're expected at least socially to always be up on our taxes and I think we should carry that through with everybody that we contract with. Um, I did have a request that I sent off to um the streets department about adding a stop sign at um Waldron where it um where Waldron jogs north and then the hospital has that um southernmost um driveway that comes out that does not traffic coming out of the hospital does not stop. Um, but every other driveway coming out of the clinic or coming out of the hospital does stop. Um, and so as we drive more traffic to that corner, whether through the YMCA or the hotel, the convention center, the restaurant, all of the above, um, I don't think it's very clearly marked that traffic doesn't

stop. And it is a state law that you stop when coming out of a driveway. Um, but yeah, I just want to make that more visible for our especially for our visitors. um it doesn't seem like stopping traffic coming out of coming out of the hospital um would be a big deal. So um Cecil is looking at that as well as an additional crosswalk signal at HMS7. I'm still waiting on an answer um about that, but there is a place where as you cross Maple, you cannot see um the pedestrian traffic signal um for the crosswalk, which is a safety concern. um that does not match up with MUTCD.

Engineering did review that in the past. Um I did ask what the findings were. They have to dig through their files. So as soon as they find that, I'll pass it forward. Yeah, that'd be awesome. Um and I think there was something else either about a stop sign or something, but um I'd have to dig emails. Do we have any stop signs left for Waldron? Yeah, I think you just plant little seeds. I've used them all up. I thought we'd used all the stop signs we could possibly use on Waldron. They still have all the flags on those, too. And they've been up there for a while. I feel like I don't know if they should take the flags down, but we could put roundabouts instead. Like [laughter] we have enough We do have people at the press here that could put that in the paper that you said.

Yes, we have plenty of time. We're done early. So, this is what you get, folks. Yep. Um I think that is all that I have. Um, I do look forward to the inoperable vehicle discussion that will be um after January um so that John can't get his opinion. Better make sure my truck starts up and runs. Um Mr. Vas, any remarks? I don't have anything. Thank you. Next item, please. Item number 10, future agenda items, inoperable vehicle discussion. Item number 11, [clears throat] executive session. Are we having a session? Yes. Uh 20 minutes.

Um I move to uh move to go into recess into executive session pursuant to confidential data relating to financial affairs or trade secrets of corporations, partnerships, trust, and individual proprietorships. Uh exception KSA 754319B4 in order to discuss financial affairs of a private sector entity. the open meeting to resume in city council chambers at um 4:55 p.m. Second. Richardson, yes. Garza, yes. Bass, yes. Mayers, yes. Scott, yes.

I was waiting for someone to say no because it says motion [laughter] passed unanimously. Heat. Heat.

[music] [music]

Hey. Hey. Hey. So, where do your tax dollars really go? Let's break it down with a single dollar. First, here's the truth. The city of Hutchinson only gets about 25 [music] cents of every property tax dollar you pay. sales tax. We get just 1.4% of purchases made in the city. So, no, we're not swimming in cash. But here's how we stretch [music] every dollar we do get. 44 cents goes to public safety, police, fire, and emergency services. That's nearly half of your dollar keeping [music] HUD safe. 15 cents for parks and facilities, mowed grass, sports facilities, pools and splash pads, walking trails, and clean public restrooms. 15 cents covers capital improvements and bond payments, [music] roads, major repairs, and the debt we've taken on to build what matters. 10 cents goes to public works and engineering,

water, sewer, storm drains, and street maintenance. 9 cents runs the core admin team, [music] IT, finance, HR, the city attorney, keeping everything moving behind the scenes. 5 cents for economic development, bringing new jobs and opportunities. One 12 cents for code enforcement, making sure buildings are safe. 1 cent for [music] planning and development guiding future growth. And just onetenth of a cent for arts and culture. Yep. One10th. We listen to residents. We crunch the numbers. And we focus on real needs, not fluff. We treat every scent like it counts because it does. That's the city of Hutch budget in action. Smart, transparent, focused on what matters. Heat. Heat. Hey.
