funding any necessary reserves for the Series 2026 Bonds, and funding costs of issuance for the Series 2026
Bonds. Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Series 2026 Bonds will be issued on a parity with the

thereof, nor shall the County be subject to any liability thereon. No holder of the Series 2026 Bonds shall ever
have the right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the County to pay the Series 2026 Bonds or the
interest thereon, nor to enforce payment thereof against any property of the County. The Series 2026 Bonds

necessary and appropriate and are permitted or required by this Resolution, and in accordance with the further

Board of Commissioners’ Meeting Minutes April 14, 2026
Page 6 of 22
aforementioned documents shall be exercised or performed by the County or by such members of the Board,
or such officers, board, body, or agency thereof as may be required or authorized by law to exercise such
powers and to perform such duties.
No covenant, stipulation, obligation, or agreement herein contained or contained in the Financing
Documents shall be deemed to be a covenant, stipulation, obligation, or agreement of any member of the
Board, or any officer, agent, or employee of the County in that person’s individual capacity, and neither the
Board nor any officer or employee executing the Series 2026 Bonds shall be liable personally on the Series
2026 Bonds or be subject to any personal liability or accountability by reason of the issuance thereof.
No provision, covenant, or agreement contained in the Financing Documents, the Series 2026 Bonds
or in any other document relating to the Series 2026 Bonds, and no obligation therein or herein imposed upon
the County or the breach thereof, shall constitute or give rise to any pecuniary liability of the County or any
charge upon its general credit or taxing powers. In making the agreements, provisions, covenants, and
representations set forth in such documents, the County has not obligated itself to pay or remit any funds or
revenues, other than funds and revenues derived from the Loan Agreement which are to be applied to the

provisions as are prescribed in the Indenture. The Series 2026 Bonds shall bear interest at a variable rate
established by the terms of the Indenture and the final maturity date of the Series 2026 Bonds shall not be
later than May 1, 2066. The County hereby authorizes the issuance of the Series 2026 Bonds in minimum
denominations as set forth in the Indenture but in no event of not less than $5,000. The County hereby
authorizes the Series 2026 Bonds to be issued as “tax-exempt bonds” the interest on which is excluded from
gross income for federal and State of Minnesota income tax purposes. Any separate series of Series 2026
Bonds may be issued as “taxable bonds” if deemed necessary and appropriate by the County Officials and
bond counsel.
The Series 2026 Bonds, when executed and delivered, shall contain a recital that they are issued
pursuant to the Act, and such recital shall be conclusive evidence of the validity of the Series 2026 Bonds and
the regularity of the issuance thereof, and that all acts, conditions, and things required by the laws of the State
of Minnesota relating to the adoption of this Resolution, to the issuance of the Series 2026 Bonds, and to the
execution of the aforementioned documents to happen, exist, and be performed precedent to the execution
of the aforementioned documents have happened, exist, and have been performed as so required by law
2.4 Execution. The Series 2026 Bonds shall be executed on behalf of the County by the signatures of its
County Officials and shall be sealed with the seal of the County; provided that the seal may be intentionally
omitted as provided by law. In case any officer whose signature shall appear on the Series 2026 Bonds shall
cease to be such officer before the delivery of the Series 2026 Bonds, such signature shall nevertheless be
valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if such officer had remained in office until delivery. In the
event of the absence or disability of any of the County Official such officer(s) of the County as, in the opinion
of the County Attorney, may act in their behalf, shall without further act or authorization of the Board execute
and deliver the Series 2026 Bonds.
The County Officials and other officers, employees, and agents of the County are hereby authorized to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the County, the Financing Documents to which it is a party and such other documents
as are necessary or appropriate in connection with the issuance, sale, and delivery of the Series 2026 Bonds,

inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all
jurisdictions or in all cases because it conflicts with any provisions of any constitution or statute or rule or
public policy, or for any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision
in question inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision
or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative, or unenforceable to any extent whatever. The invalidity of
any one or more phrases, sentences, clauses or paragraphs in this Resolution contained shall not affect the

absence or disability of any of the County Officials, such officer(s) of the County as, in the opinion of the
County Attorney, may act on their behalf, shall without further act or authorization of the Board do all things

(a) The County proposes to approve a tax abatement in connection with the construction of a single family
home (the "Project"), The County proposes to use the tax abatement for the Project provided for in
Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.1812 through 469.1815 (the "Abatement Law"), from the property
taxes to be levied by the County on Parcel Identification Number 76000990874003 (the "Tax
Abatement Property").
(b) The County proposes to approve a tax abatement on a portion of the County's share of property taxes
on the Tax Abatement Property in the amount of $10,000 for a term of up to five (5) years to finance
a portion of the costs of the Project.
(c) The tax abatement is authorized under the Abatement Law.
2. Findings for the Tax Abatement. The Board hereby makes the following findings:
(a) The tax abatement is the County's share of real estate taxes which relate to the Project being
constructed on the Tax Abatement Property and not the real estate taxes that relate to the value of
the land (the "Abatement").
(b) The Board expects the benefits to the County of the Abatement to be at least equal or exceed the
costs to the County thereof.
(c) Granting the Abatement is in the public interest because it will increase the tax base in County.
(d) The Tax Abatement Property is not located in a tax increment financing district.
(e) In any year, the total amount of property taxes abated by the County by this and other resolutions and
agreements, does not exceed the greater of ten percent (10%) of the net tax capacity of the County
for the taxes payable year to which the abatement applies or $200,000, whichever is greater. The
County may grant other abatements permitted under the Abatement Law after the date of this
resolution, provided that to the extent the total abatements in any year exceed the Abatement Limit

Abatement are as follows:
(f) The Abatement shall be for up to five (5) years anticipated to commence for taxes payable 2026 and

Board of Commissioners Chair
Otter Tail County Adult Mental Health Local Advisory Council (LAC) Annual Summary:
2025–2026
The Adult Mental Health LAC meets monthly on the fourth Wednesday of the month from 11:30
a.m.–1:00 p.m., with hybrid participation available.
Key Activities & Highlights
• Hosted educational presentations, including NAMI’s overview of local support groups.
• Planning a family workshop on June 6, 2026, at LRHC.
• Distributed mental health resource baskets countywide in May and October; staffed
booths at Dandelion Days and BCOW.
• Published a suicide-prevention billboard in collaboration with Otter Tail County Public
Health.
Priority Areas
Public Education Continued strong community engagement. Plans for 2026 include PSAs, media
outreach, and expanding basket locations.
Housing Housing instability remains a major issue due to credit barriers, limited rentals, and
criminal history. Garitz Grove has been a helpful addition. LAC supports more affordable,
integrated housing.
Membership The LAC welcomed three new members representing provider, lived experience,
and family perspectives. Expanded outreach through brochures and community engagement in
Parkers Prairie and New York Mills.
Access to Services Staffing shortages at community mental health providers may decrease
access to needed services. A Place to Belong is relocating in June 2026 but expects to have
limited impact to services. Wellness in the Woods faced funding cuts but was able to maintain
most of their Warmline services through 2025.
Transportation Significant disruptions occurred due to cab service closures and limited
insurance coverage. Ace Taxi reopened but may be cost-prohibitive to individuals with lower
income. The volunteer driver program is still in development.
Pet Board & Care LAC launched a Pet Care application and facilitated the use of donated funds
to support individuals needing temporary pet care during crises.
Mental Health Emergency Department LAC continues to support the development of a
dedicated MHED to reduce ER strain and improve crisis response.
Recommendations to County Commissioners
1. Continue permanent supportive housing in our community.
2. Explore strategies to strengthen mental health staffing and workforce capacity.
3. Improve affordable transportation options for appointments and community integration.
4. Support development of a Mental Health Emergency Department.
Respectfully,
Otter Tail County Adult Local Advisory Council

Agreement may be automatically renewed for an additional one-year period, effective August 1, 2026,
through July 31, 2027, with mutually agreed upon increases.
In accordance with Section 9.1, annual contract increases will be calculated based on the Consumer Price
Index (CPI) for Medical Care Services in U.S. City Average, All Urban Consumers, Not Seasonally Adjusted, as
published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, with a minimum increase of no less than 4.5%.
Wellpath proposes to effectuate the 2026 -2027 renewal period with the contractually allowed minimum
CPI increase of 4.5%, resulting in an increase in base compensation from $688,188.93 to $719,157.43
annually. The table below outlines the monthly and annual costs effective August 1, 2026.

Prepared — Statement of Work (SOW)
1. Purpose of this Statement of Work
This Statement of Work (“SOW”) defines scope, responsibilities, assumptions,
dependencies, deliverables, and acceptance criteria associated with the deployment of
Prepared solutions for MN - Otter Tail County PSAP.
This document’s intent is to reduce ambiguity and prevent delays by explicitly describing
what Prepared will do, what MN - Otter Tail County PSAP must provide, what third parties
may be involved, and how both parties will coordinate to achieve operational readiness and
value.
Prepared may adapt sequencing or execution methods based on evolving product
capabilities or Customer environments. Any adaptation does not expand scope, add
integrations, introduce net-new deliverables, or materially change responsibilities unless
mutually agreed through Change Control.
This SOW includes the core terms below and only those product appendices explicitly
included for the products purchased by the Customer. Product-specific requirements,
dependencies, responsibilities, and acceptance criteria apply only to the included
appendices.
Prepared implementations follow a standardized deployment lifecycle designed to reduce
implementation risk and accelerate operational readiness. This lifecycle begins with a
kickoff webinar and customer-led infrastructure preparation, followed by an activation
session where Prepared systems are enabled. Assistive Call-Taking (ACT) is typically
activated first as the foundational capability. Additional Prepared capabilities may be
implemented in parallel or sequentially depending on customer environment readiness and
operational priorities. Product-specific implementation details are described in the
appendices included in this SOW.

4. Out of Project Scope
Prepared is only responsible for performing the professional services described within this
SOW. Any additional professional services that are not defined explicitly by this SOW shall
be done so through a Change Order, that may be subject to additional cost and
consideration to timeline.
The following are considered outside the scope of this project:
● Administration, management, or support of any internal city, county, state, federal, or
agency IT network or infrastructure.
● Changes made by the Customer or the Customer's vendors after any Interfaces have
been accepted.
● Third-party products and services costs related to the vendors or customer's side
of the integration.
● Implementation of new features and/or modules that become available following the
execution of this statement of work, that are not otherwise identified as being
included in scope.
5. Execution Model & Delivery Approach
Implementation Lifecycle
Prepared implementations follow a standardized lifecycle designed to ensure infrastructure
readiness and predictable activation.
The typical sequence is:
1. Contract Execution / Deal Close
The SOW is executed and the implementation process begins.
2. Pre-Kickoff Webinar (Infrastructure Enablement)
Prepared conducts a standardized kickoff webinar introducing technical
requirements, infrastructure preparation tasks, and vendor coordination
requirements.
3. Customer Infrastructure Preparation
The Customer completes infrastructure readiness activities including allowlisting,
vendor coordination, access preparation, and any required procurement tasks.
4. Activation Session
Prepared conducts an activation session where core Prepared platform components
PREPARED 7
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
$ Prepared
are enabled and connectivity is validated.
5. Product Implementation (Work Packages)
After activation, formal implementation activities begin using the Work Packages
described below.
Assistive Call-Taking (ACT) is typically implemented first because it establishes core audio
ingestion infrastructure used by multiple Prepared capabilities. Additional products may
begin in parallel or in sequence depending on customer readiness and operational
priorities.
Prepared implementations follow four standard phases (“Work Packages”):
1. Solution Analysis – confirm requirements and architecture
2. Procurement – acquire required hardware, licenses, and services
3. Installation, Configuration & Testing – deploy and validate the solution
4. Training & Acceptance – train users and transition to sustainment
Prepared implementations are dependency-driven rather than strictly linear. Although Work
Packages are described sequentially for clarity, they are not a strict waterfall sequence.
Many activities can begin in parallel if prerequisites are met. For example, procurement
readiness activities may proceed while Solution Analysis continues, and training planning
may begin before final validation is complete. Prepared implementations begin with a
standardized implementation kickoff webinar and customer-led infrastructure preparation.
Formal implementation activities begin after system activation.
Implementation timelines are most commonly impacted by:
● Customer responsiveness and availability for required working sessions
● Third-party vendor availability (CHMP, CAD vendor, radio provider)
● Security reviews, allowlisting, and access approvals
● Procurement lead times and vendor scheduling windows
Prepared will communicate dependencies and risks early, and will proactively identify items
that commonly delay implementations in public safety environments.
Prepared will submit a single Milestone Completion Report (MCR), attached as Attachment
A, to the Customer at the completion of all work packages included in this Statement of
Work (SoW). The MCR serves as the final deliverable for the SoW.
The Customer will have seven (7) calendar days from receipt of the MCR to review and
approve it. If the Customer reasonably believes that Prepared has not completed the work
PREPARED 8
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
$ Prepared
in substantial conformance with this SoW, the Customer must provide written notice within
seven (7) calendar days of receiving the MCR, describing the specific reasons for rejection.
Prepared will address the identified issues and resubmit the MCR for approval. If Prepared
does not receive either (i) a signed MCR or (ii) written notice of specific reasons for
rejection within seven (7) calendar days of delivery, the MCR will be deemed accepted.
6. Target Timeframes (Calendar Weeks)
Timeframes are ranges (targets), not commitments to start or complete by a specific date.
Work Package Typical Range
Work Package 1
Solution Analysis 1–3 Weeks
Work Package 2
Procurement Readiness & Completion 2–6 Weeks
Work Package 3
Installation, Configuration, Integration & Testing 2–6 Weeks
Work Package 4
Training & Acceptance 1–2 Weeks
These ranges assume Customer dependencies are met within approximately five (5)
business days of request. Work Package timelines begin after the Activation Session, which
occurs after the kickoff webinar and completion of customer infrastructure preparation
activities. Prepared implementations typically activate Assistive Call-Taking (ACT) first,
followed by additional capabilities that may begin in parallel or sequence depending on
environment readiness.
7. Communications, Governance, and Standard Project
Artifacts
Prepared implementations follow the lifecycle described in Section 5 and begin with a
standardized kickoff webinar focused on infrastructure enablement and implementation
preparation. After activation, Prepared may assign a Project Manager or Technical
Implementation Manager to coordinate implementation activities, communications, and
PREPARED 9
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
$ Prepared
delivery tracking.
Prepared will provide structured communications, typically including:
● Implementation kickoff webinar introducing infrastructure enablement requirements
● Documentation and implementation resources provided following the webinar
● Activation session scheduling and coordination once infrastructure preparation is
complete
● Post-activation implementation coordination including working sessions, validation
sessions, and training
● Written updates or action tracking when appropriate
Standard project artifacts Prepared provides:
● Implementation diagram(s) describing system components and data flows
● Network and access requirements summary (ports, allowlisting needs, connectivity
assumptions)
● Customer input checklist (by product and environment)
● Validation and test plan/checklist (by product)
● Training agenda and training materials
● Go-live readiness confirmation (where applicable)
8. Sales-Initiated Procurement Readiness (Critical)
Prepared implementations often involve third-party vendors and Customer-controlled
procurement steps. For certain products—especially Assistive Call-Taking (ACT) and
Assistive Dispatch (AD)—procurement readiness activities should begin during the Sales
process to prevent delays after contracting.
Because Prepared implementations require customer infrastructure setup prior to
activation, vendor coordination and procurement readiness activities may begin during the
Sales process to ensure infrastructure work can proceed immediately following the kickoff
webinar.
● Identify which third parties will be required
● Confirm who owns procurement tasks and what lead times to expect
● Reduce uncertainty regarding licensing paths, approvals, and vendor scheduling
windows
● Allow realistic planning for implementation start and dependency sequencing
Unless explicitly documented, no procurement work is assumed complete at the start of
implementation.

8.2 No Procurement Assumed
Even if procurement readiness begins during Sales, no procurement activity is considered
complete unless explicitly confirmed in writing and reflected in the SOW / implementation
plan. This avoids situations where both parties believe procurement is “in progress” but it is
not scheduled, ordered, or approved. Prepared implementations require coordination with
Customer-controlled systems and third-party vendors (such as call handling equipment
providers, CAD vendors, radio vendors, or system integrators). The Customer is responsible
for initiating and coordinating these vendors, including scheduling, approvals, and
configuration work required within the Customer’s environment. Prepared will provide
documentation and technical guidance but does not control vendor timelines, vendor
resource availability, or vendor configuration activities.

Implementation timelines are dependent on Customer and vendor readiness.
9. Operational Data, Integrations, and Customer-Provided
Inputs
Prepared solutions may require Customer-provided data, interfaces, vendor coordination,
and system access. Product-specific operational inputs, dependencies, and configuration
requirements are described in the applicable appendices included in this SOW.
10. Security, Access, and Compliance (Global)
The Customer is responsible for all Customer-side security activities required to support
implementation, including network access, allowlisting, credential provisioning, and site
access. Prepared will provide required documentation describing connectivity needs.
Where CJIS or similar compliance requirements apply, the Customer coordinates:
● background checks (if required)
● escort/badging requirements
● access approvals and site access procedures
Prepared will support security review processes by providing documentation and
participating in technical review sessions as needed.
11. Customer Environment Summary
Prepared implementations depend on accurate understanding of Customer systems. The
Customer will provide environment information during Solution Analysis and update it if
material changes occur.

12.3 Audio Collection Infrastructure
Certain Prepared products rely on audio and metadata feeds collected from the Customer's
call handling or radio systems.
Prepared may deploy an Audio Collector device that passively captures mirrored traffic
from Customer systems.
The Audio Collector:
● listens to mirrored audio traffic
● collects associated signaling or metadata
● securely transmits data to the Prepared platform
The device does not sit in the call path and does not modify Customer systems.
Products that rely on these feeds will specify their required inputs within the applicable
product appendices.

PRODUCT APPENDICES
This SOW uses a modular structure consisting of a Core Implementation Framework
(Sections 1–16) and Product Appendices.
Only appendices corresponding to products purchased by the Customer apply to this
deployment.
APPENDIX A — Assistive Call-Taking (ACT)
This appendix applies only if the Customer has purchased the product described below
A1. Overview (ACT)
Assistive Call-Taking (ACT) provides transcription and operational context for call handling
workflows. ACT processes call audio and associated metadata to generate real-time
transcription and contextual insights that support call taker operations. ACT is typically the
first Prepared capability implemented because it establishes the audio ingestion
infrastructure used by several other Prepared capabilities.
ACT commonly relies on Customer call handling architecture and may require coordinated
work with the CHMP to enable mirrored audio feeds and supporting metadata interfaces.
ACT may rely on audio and signaling data captured through the Audio Collection
Infrastructure described in Section 12.3.
The goal of this appendix is to document the detailed execution plan for ACT so that
Customer, Prepared, and any involved vendors have aligned expectations.
A2. Assumptions & Dependencies (ACT)
ACT implementation assumes:
1. Customer will provide accurate description of their call handling topology
(standalone, main+backup, hosted, number of sites).
2. Customer will coordinate CHMP participation for any required configuration or
validation steps needed to provide mirrored audio and metadata feeds, including
any applicable CDR or ANI/ALI interfaces.
PREPARED 21
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
$ Prepared
3. Customer will provide network access and allowlisting needed for Prepared
infrastructure to communicate with Prepared cloud services.
4. Customer will provide onsite support for installation activities where applicable
(power, cabling, network drop, access to comms/network rooms as required).
Because call handling environments vary widely, final interface configuration details
(mirrored traffic configuration, interface ports, and site-specific setup) are validated during
implementation rather than assumed at contracting.
A3. Required Data Inputs (ACT)
ACT relies on the following Customer-provided data inputs:
● Call Handling Audio — mirrored call audio from the Customer call handling
environment.
● Call Detail Records (CDR) — call event records providing timestamps, identifiers,
and call handling metadata.
● ANI / ALI Metadata — Automatic Number Identification and Automatic Location
Identification information associated with incoming calls where available.
These inputs may be captured through the Audio Collection Infrastructure described in
Section 12.3 or through other supported interfaces depending on Customer architecture.
A4. Customer Responsibilities Checklist (ACT)
Customer will:
● Confirm call handling topology and sites in scope.
● Coordinate CHMP participation to enable mirrored audio feeds and any applicable

APPENDIX D — Automated Non-Emergency Triage
(ANET)
This appendix applies only if the Customer has purchased the product described below.
D1. Overview (ANET)
Automated Non-Emergency Triage (ANET) supports handling of non-emergency calls using
Prepared-configured intent workflows aligned to Customer SOPs.
ANET enables callers to interact with automated intent workflows that route, respond, or
escalate calls according to Customer-defined operational policies.
ANET uses a Test Center and Production Center model to ensure changes are validated
prior to live operation. This structure allows workflows to be tested and confirmed before
promotion to operational use.

surveys, environmental permitting, and wetland delineation while coordinating with regulatory agencies and preparing pennit
applications. The designs addressed site-specific challenges, including flooding concerns for Bridge No. 91554 and structural
deficiencies for Bridge No. 91961, proposing cost-effective solutions such as precast box culverts or single-span concrete
bridges. CH 143 and Moccasin Road are nearing completion. CSAH 51's preliminary design is ongoing.

Project Description: To address waterway requirements for the replacement structure, HEI analyzed the hydrologic and
hydraulic (H&H) characteristics of the existing bridge and completed a hydraulic data report, risk assessment, and preliminary
design. HEI designed a three-span reinforced concrete bridge with approach roadway connections. Tying into the existing
approach roadway geometrics while meeting State Aid standards was challenging due to horizontal curvature immediately west
of the structure and the TH 27 crossing immediately east. The 146-foot concrete slab bridge was designed for flood conditions
and overtopping. HEI also assisted the County in obtaining required permits, including a Minnesota Department of Natural
Resources Public Water Work Pennit, a US Anny Corps of Engineers pennit, and a Bois de Sioux Watershed District pennit.

Project Approach
We understand that Otter Tail County (OTC) is
seeking an experienced consultant with
demonstrated success delivering State Aid
bridge projects in environmentally sensitive,
operationally diverse, and constrained settings.
HEI brings this experience along with detailed
knowledge of the hydrology and hydraulics
(H&H) at Bridge 56519 from recent work on the
Otter Tail Lake Dam Modification project,
completed 2024. Similarly, HEI is currently
working with OTC on Bridge 93368 replacement
project on CSAH 51, separating Little Pine Lake
from Mud Lake. These projects reflect many of
the same public interest, hydraulic,
environmental, permitting, navigability,
pedestrian safety, right-of-way, and
constructability challenges anticipated for the
proposed CSAH 1 crossing.
Bridge 56519 is over the Dead River on CSAH
1, separating Walker Lake and Otter Tail Lake. It
is a 93-foot, three-span, timber slab bridge with
a 20-degree skew that is in poor condition,
considered to be structurally deficient. It lies on
a small tangent section of CSAH 1 between two
horizontal curves. This segment functions as a
major collector and has a projected average
daily traffic exceeding 1,500 vehicles.
Project Challenges
HEI understands that achieving project
objectives requires addressing site-specific
geometric and safety constraints, along with
diverse operational needs that will significantly
influence bridge layout. roadway alignment,
profile design, and pedestrian accessibility and
navigability. Addressing these constraints
requires close coordination across our
multidisciplinary team, including structural,
roadway, trails, H&H, and environmental.
Proximity of Adjacent Lake Properties
Developed lake properties are located
immediately adjacent to the bridge and roadway
approaches, resulting in limited right-of-way
flexibility and restricted grading limits. We will
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 1 (Remove Existing Bridge 56519)
carefully consider impacts to private access,
drainage patterns, and property use when
making design decisions related to roadway
profile, bridge approaches, and construction
staging. Minimizing or mitigating permanent
impacts and clearly defining construction limits
will be critical to reducing disruption to adjacent
property owners.
Roadway Geometry Constraints
The project appears to meet the definition of a
Suburban roadway as defined in State Aid Rules
8820.0200, Subpart 37 . Due to physical
constraints at the project site, we recommend
that the following "Suburban" roadway design
criteria be applied to minimize impacts.
Clear Zone: State Aid Rules 8820.9920,
footnote (d), allows the clear zone width to be
reduced to 1 O feet for suburban roadways with
posted speed limits of 45 mph or less. Because
of the site constraints, a 10-foot clear zone is
recommended as the design criterion for this
project to minimize project impacts.
Design Speed: State Aid Rules 8820.9920,
footnote (e), allows the minimum design speed
in suburban areas to match the existing legal
posted speed when that speed is 30 mph or
greater. The current posted speed limit within
the project limits is 30 mph; therefore, a design
speed of 30 mph is recommended to minimize
project impacts.
Superelevation: The existing horizontal curves
on each side of the bridge would require
superelevation to meet rural design standards.
Providing superelevation would necessitate
placing transitions on the bridge and would
result in substantial impacts on adjacent
properties and increase construction costs of the
bridge. Instead, it is recommended that the
project follow the Low-Speed Suburban facility
criteria outlined in the MnDOT Facility Design
Guide, Section 5C.3.3. Under this guidance,
superelevation is generally discouraged at
low-speed suburban facilities. With a proposed
design speed of 30 mph, it is recommended that
6
no superelevation be provided. This approach is
consistent with existing conditions and is
considered appropriate for the site given its
suburban nature.
Vertical Profile: The bridge is constrained by
existing roadway grades and adjacent property
elevations. Changes to the vertical profile are
limited by the need to avoid adverse impacts to
private driveways, drainage, and private access.
Additionally, a retaining wall exists on the
southwest corner of the bridge that will need to
be considered with the proposed profile. As a
result, the bridge superstructure type, depth,
low-chord elevation, approach grades, and
roadway profile must be carefully balanced with
navigability and hydraulic requirements. This is
done through a collaborative and iterative
process between our experienced structural,
roadway, hydraulic, and environmental leads.
Pedestrian Safety and Accessibility
The existing bridge includes sidewalks on both
sides and is recognized as a high demand
pedestrian facility. We understand there is a
desire to improve this on the proposed structure
with a safe, comfortable, and accessible
long-term pedestrian services as a primary
project objective. We will address sidewalk
continuity, ADA and accessibility, buffer zones,
transitions to the approaching roadway, and
railing and barrier needs while maximizing safety
for all users.
Meandering River Geometry and
Navigability
The Dead River approaches the bridge with a
meandering alignment and variable channel
width, influencing flow patterns, channel stability,
and scour potential. This condition requires
thoughtful coordination between hydraulic
analysis and bridge layout to ensure the
structure accommodates natural flow behavior
while minimizing impacts to the channel.
Significant recreational boat traffic occurs
between Walker Lake and Otter Tail Lake.
Navigability will be critical to public acceptability
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 1 (Remove Existing Bridge 56519)
of the replacement structure. The bridge span
will be developed to promote a healthy channel
cross section, navigability, and economical
bridge type and layout.
Project Tasks
Project Management and Planning
HEI will begin with a kick-off meeting with
County representatives. The goals and
objectives, scope of services, schedule,
deliverables, fees, stakeholder identification,
available data, proposed design concepts, and
state aid standards will be confirmed at this
meeting. We will provide written monthly
summaries and invoices to OTC throughout the
design and construction phases. We will
manage the schedule while ensuring the budget
is conducted appropriately and included in
project update summaries. Project team
meetings will be scheduled for 60% and 90%
reviews with additional coordination meetings as
needed.
Topographic Survey and
Right-of-Way
An accurate topographic survey is critical to a
successful project. To avoid excessive
construction cost overruns, we are aware of site
data sensitivity and will use the necessary tools
and practices to collect accurate information.
Once design progresses and final project limits
are set, we will develop right-of-way exhibits to
facilitate OTC acquisition of permanent and/or
temporary right-of-way. We assume OTC will
provide existing right-of-way limits alignments to
prepare right-of-way exhibits.
Geotechnical Investigation and
Regulated Waste
Geotechnical and regulated waste assessment
services will be provided by HEl's
subconsultants selected for this project. To
provide OTC with an economical and financially
responsible team, we have solicited quotes from
several firms. We propose Terracon to complete
the geotechnical investigation and foundations
7
report. Building Systems, Inc. will complete the
regulated waste assessment and report. Both
firms have a long history working with HEI on
similar successful MnDOT State Aid bridge
projects.
Hydrologic and Hydraulic Design
Our hydraulic analysis and reports are formatted
to satisfy MnDOT State Aid data requirements.
Our local H&H knowledge of the Otter Tail Lake
and outlet characteristics will provide you with
immediate insight into a replacement strategy for
this complicated bridge opening. Through our
initial H&H investigation, our models suggest an
upstream 50-year water level elevation of
approximately 1323.90 and a 100-year elevation
of 1324.10.
Concurrently with our modeling efforts, we will
engage with the Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources (DNR) to ensure that
modeling efforts reflect permitting requirements.
Based on our understanding and discussions
with Ryan Bjerke, DNR Area Hydrologist,
navigability between the lakes is a known public
interest. This will be taken into account when
considering bridge low member elevations
(50-year elevation plus 3 feet). We understand
there are navigational depth concerns at the
existing crossing. We suspect this is due to the
near shore sand drift of Otter Tail Lake system
and will be investigating early in the design
process for potential mitigations.
Bridge Design
Due to the existing bridge opening and
navigability needs at the crossing, we do not
anticipate multiples lines of box culverts as a
practical replacement alternative. As discussed
above, the low member elevation required for
navigational clearance (approx. 1326.90) is
anticipated to be the controlling factor for the
bridge type and roadway profile. The existing
profile suggests the bridge deck is at
approximately 1331.00, resulting in an existing
low member of 1329.50. It there is a desire to
keep the bridge low member elevation near
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 1 (Remove Existing Bridge 56519)
existing and no vertical profile impacts, a
three-span reinforced concrete slab bridge
with integral abutments and pile bent piers
with up to a 20-degree skew is the
recommended structure type. Concrete slab
bridges are the preferred solution for vertically
constrained areas by eliminating the need for
deep beams or girders and providing a shallow
profile. If it is acceptable by stakeholders to
lower the lower member to the required
navigability low member elevation, we would
propose looking into two additional
alternatives:
• Lower profile with a 3-span slab span bridge
resulting in improving some of the existing
approach grade issues to adjacent
properties.
• Keep profile near existing and utilize a single
span prestressed beam bridge, eliminating
the need for pier substructures within the
channel and minimize dewatering costs.
One additional alternative to consider would be:
• Precast Arch Structure: A large precast arch
structure constructed to match the channel
width limits of 40 to 50 feet and provides
similar low member clearances to existing.
The locations of the headwalls with
pedestrian railing would be placed outside of
the clear zone, eliminating the need for
guardrail or pedestrian barriers and allowing
a consistent comfortable facility for
pedestrian users. This would allow for
normal roadway section above, and allow for
approach grades to be lowered by reducing
the limits of a vertical crest curve at the
shortened span structure.
For bridge deck alternatives, we anticipate a
bridge length of approximately 80 to 100 feet, a
40-foot clear width (12-foot lane and 8-foot
shoulder), and additional sidewalks and/or
shared-use paths on each edge of the deck.
Due to the low design speed, it is anticipated the
pedestrian facilities could be on a raised curb
section of the deck without requiring a
separation barrier from the shoulder. The
8
outside edge of the pedestrian facilities can be a
full height pedestrian railing or a combination of
concrete parapet barriers and partial height
railings. The final bridge length will be
determined based on the channel bottom width
and navigability requirements in conjunction with
the channel slope recommendations provided by
the geotechnical engineer.
Roadway Design
Minimal approach grading is anticipated, and the
proposed horizontal alignment will match the
existing roadway. Modifications to the vertical
profile are expected to be minimal, with
approach grading largely limited to excavation
required for bridge approach panel construction
and the limits of the existing pedestrian facilities.
Because the design speed is less than 40 mph,
guardrail is not anticipated to be required per
State Aid Rules 8820.9920, footnote (d). The
project will utilize the minimum roadway design
standards necessary to satisfy State Aid
requirements while minimizing impacts to the
highly constrained project site. Construction
access and staging areas will be considered
during design to ensure the project is feasible.
Maintaining safe and reliable access to nearby
residents during construction and minimizing
detour impacts will be a key consideration
throughout the design process.
Utility Coordination
A Gopher State One Call (GSOC) will be made
to validate utility owner and location present. A
field meeting as well as two virtual meetings are
assumed to ensure utility ownership and
location. Any potential utility conflicts will be
identified and coordinated by HEI during the
design.
Environmental Review and
Regulatory
A DNR Public Water Work Permit obtained
through the MN permitting and reporting system
(MPARS) will be required for work in Public
Waters in the Dead River. Involving the DNR
early in the design process will help streamline
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 1 (Remove Existing Bridge 56519)
the application process. Wetland delineation
fieldwork should occur in October 2026 by OTC.
HEI will calculate impacts, prepare the joint
notification form, and submit the application on
behalf of OTC for wetland impacts and local
government unit and technical evaluation panel
(TEP) review for approval of Local Road
Wetland Banking credits.
Permitting for a similar-sized structure
replacement will likely be covered under a
nationwide or general permit, and an individual
US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) Sections
401 and 404 permit is not anticipated. No
watershed permit application, cultural review, or
noise analysis is anticipated. A threatened and
endangered species review will likely be
required in accordance with DNR and USAGE
permit conditions. Some tree removal is
anticipated; appropriate plan exhibits and project
provisions will be included to address Northern
Long-Eared Bat considerations.
Bridge and Roadway Plan
Preparation
Bridge and roadway 60%, 90%, and 95% plans
will be developed in accordance with County,
County State Aid Standards, and MN Rules
Table 8820.9920. The preparation, submittal,
review, and approved final certified package will
be prepared as we have historically completed
bridge projects through Nathan Gannon and Jeff
Buschette, MnDOT District 4 State Office, as
well as the State Aid Bridge Office and Dave
Conkel's team. A summary of required sheets
and deliverables identified in Section VI of the
Request for Proposals (RFP) will be provided.
Notable deliverables include Special Provisions
(Divisions S, SB, and ST), bridge load rating,
State Aid bridge plan revisions checklist,
engineering estimate, and RTVision OneOffice
bid item list consistent with the TRNS*PORT
item list.

at the 60%, 90%, and 95% phases, as well as
prepare the project bid proposal and initiate the
project through RTVision. f\dditional services
can be viewed on the cost proposal on page ii.
Stakeholder Engagement
Due to the high use of this crossing, stakeholder
identification and subsequent public
engagement is highly critical in developing a
predictable path to common project objectives
that makes sense. We propose a task to identify
all potential stakeholders such as DNR, Lake
Associations, East Otter Tail Soil and Water
Conservation District, among others. After the
stakeholder identification process, we will
develop an engagement plan and participate in
an early kick-off meeting to discuss their
thoughts on the waterway opening and value,
and a subsequent public engagement meeting
at the mid 60-90% plan completion stage.
Conceptual Analysis
For a highly constrained project like this, the
most important phase of design can often be
the early conceptual level studies (15%) and
bridge TSL analysis. We view this as a critical
investment and a key component of responsible
project delivery. As stated in the bridge design
approach, we have identified several structure
types and subsequent profiles that may be
possible if vetted and approved by stakeholders.
These early decisions have the greatest
influence on cost, permitting,
constructability, and long-term performance,
allowing risks and constraints to be
identified and addressed before they result
in redesign or added expense. By resolving
key issues early, our team helps provide OTC
with predictable outcomes, reduced project risk,
and confident stewardship of public funds.

MEMORANDUM

To: Otter Tail County Board of Commissioners
Cc: Nick Leonard, Deputy Administrator
Chris McConn, P.E., Solid Waste Director
Brooks Andersen, Recycling Manager
From: Scott Bjerke, Assistant Director
RE: Purchase Single Sort Recycling Carts for residents in NE Quadrant
I. BACKGROUND
In 2025, Otter Tail County received a grant from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
(MPCA) to implement single sort recycling for high population areas in the northeast
quadrant of the County. The County is purchasing recycling carts and distributing them at
no charge to residents within the service area. Included in the grant are funds to purchase
recycling carts.
II. ANALYSIS
We have been in communication with Rehrig Pacific Company who specialize in waste and
recycling carts. Rehrig is also a member of Sourcewell’s Cooperative Purchasing Program
which allow us to secure a lower price on the carts. We have received a quote of $65 per
cart which includes the following:
a. A QR code on each cart outlining acceptable/unacceptable items to place in carts.
b. Reflective County logo to help haulers (and plow truck drivers) to identify carts in
adverse weather conditions.
c. Rehrig will assemble and deliver carts to each resident.
d. Department staff will also prepare informational materials about the program that
will be attached to the recycling carts at delivery.
III. CONCLUSION
The Solid Waste Department respectfully requests your authorization to purchase 6,192
carts at the quoted price of $405,323.04.

Re: Calendar year 2025 financial reporting
Dear Commissioner Lahman:
It is my pleasure to commend you and your staff for perfect performance in meeting the Department of
Human Services (DHS) financial reporting requirements for calendar year 2025. All key quarterly fiscal
reports for programs your county participates in were submitted to our Financial Operations Division on
or before the report deadlines in perfect order. This effort required submission of 32 major reports
covering the four calendar quarters of 2025. These reports are:
Local Collaborative Time Study (LCTS)* Income Maintenance Expense
MFIP Consolidated Fund Social Service Fund
Client Statistics Title IV-E
SEAGR BRASS-Based Grant Fiscal Report
*If your county participates in a local collaborative, submission of this report my require the collection
of multiple local partner reports for consolidated submission to DHS.
I know this accomplishment requires planning, an efficient operation, and teamwork within your county
Human Service Department. The result is timely revenue for your county and compliance with federal
reporting for us at the State. Please congratulate your management and staff on this superb effort.
Sincerely,
Shireen Gandhi
Commissioner
