F. Case Counting Methodology
1) When appointed on a child protection case, that appointment shall count as one case
regardless of how many children or files the client has in a single proceeding. This
counts as one case because most often there is not extra work or time required for
each child. However, if hearings are set separately for different files or separate cases
do not track on the same court schedule, with Court approval these may count as
separate cases as more work and time will be required.
2) When a parenVclient has a CHIPS case that subsequently proceeds to a Permanency
case, whether TPR or Transfer of Custody, the Permanency proceeding constitutes a
separate case.
3) If a case is closed and then reopened at a later time by a separate petition because
there is a new child protection issue and counsel is re-appointed to the same client,
that also constitutes a separate case.
G. Based on the basic principle that each person appearing in court has the right to be
represented by counsel, Rule 25.6: Withdrawal or Discharge of Counsel, of the Minnesota
Rules of Juvenile Protection Procedure, will be followed.
3
7. Compensation.

continuing with payment for each month for a total of 12 months.

Barry D Bacheller Rev Liv Tst – Continued
September 9, 2026 Meeting
John Olson submitted an email dated August 17, 2026, providing an update on the Bacheller
project. Olson stated that they have been working through the questions and comments
raised by the Commission at the previous meeting, including revising the site to the
requested 1,340-foot elevation with the goal of reducing the overall volume of earthwork.
Olson further stated that, given the time remaining in the 2026 construction season,
construction in 2026 was becoming unlikely. He requested additional time to address the
Commission’s comments and provide revised plans and information for consideration at the
October meeting. Olson also invited the Commission to provide any additional questions or
feedback that could be considered as they worked through the revisions.
Motion to Table: After consideration and discussion, Trites made a motion, seconded by
Wilson, to table the application as requested in the email dated August 17, 2026.
Motion carried with all members in favor.
October 14, 2026 Meeting
The Conditional Use Permit request was revised from the original application and renotified
to the public to reflect the updated proposal, as described below:
Revised Request:
The modified grading plan results in a significant reduction in the amount of material that will need to
be exported from the site. Through a combination of revising the hill to elevation 1340 and placing
additional fill within the southern portion of the property, the estimated off-site export has been
reduced from approximately 11,060 cubic yards to 3,715 cubic yards, or approximately one-third of
the original proposal.
• Modified grading plan with the hill reduced to approximately Elevation 1340.
• Additional erosion and sediment control measures, including additional silt fence to provide
protection toward North Lida Lake.
• Proposed haul route and temporary traffic control plan.
• Landscape/planting plan to reestablish the existing vegetative buffer/windbreak generally
parallel to the road and provide additional plantings along San Dee Cove.
• Irrigation plan to assist with turf and planting establishments and ongoing watering of the
proposed landscaping.
John Olson of Apex Engineering Group in Detroit Lakes represented the application; and Barry
Bacheller, the applicant, whose address is 42273 Lida View Lane. John Olson thanked the Planning
Commission for the opportunity to revisit the request. He noted that revisions were made in response
to feedback received at the August meeting, including a revised grading plan that reduced the
estimated off-site soil exports by approximately two-thirds, significantly reducing the number of
truckloads and overall project impact. A detailed landscaping plan was also prepared to address
concerns regarding trees and vegetation. The plan includes 29 trees, approximately 73 shrubs, and a
permanent underground irrigation system to support plant growth. The landscaping is intended to
restore the property's natural appearance, provide wind protection, and offer additional screening
near San Dee Cove.
Board Discussion with Applicant:
The Commission asked for clarification on the amount of excavation and off-site soil removal
proposed under the revised grading plan. The applicant explained that the plan includes
approximately 7,000 cubic yards of cut and an estimated 3,715 cubic yards of soil to be
exported off-site, a substantial reduction from the original proposal. The revised grading
elevation of 1340 was based on geotechnical evaluations and test pits that identified native
soil conditions in the bluff area.
Otter Tail County, Planning Commission
October 14, 2026; Page 3
Barry D Bacheller Rev Liv Tst – Continued
The Commission also discussed the proposed landscaping along the San Dee Cove side of
the property, including tree placement, screening, and the potential visual impact on
neighboring properties. The applicant explained that the landscaping plan is conceptual and
that final placement could be adjusted following grading. The plan is intended to establish
vertical plantings and restore a more natural, park-like appearance. The applicant noted that
the hillside would be graded to a 4:1 slope to accommodate tree planting and that the
excavation depth would generally be approximately 13 feet from the top of the bluff area,
varying by location.
Two (2) public comments were received:
1. The Strinden Family expressed support for the Batcheller Trust’s Conditional Use
Permit application. They stated that the Batcheller’s have been excellent neighbors for
25 years and have consistently made improvements to their properties. They
expressed confidence that the project would be completed with consideration for the
land, the lake, and neighboring properties, and encouraged the Commission to
approve the application.
2. Hazel and Maria Retzlaff, on behalf of the Retzlaff Living Trust, strongly oppose the
conditional use permit for the Barry D. Batcheller Revocable Living Trust property near
Lake Lida. They state that the revised excavation plan and proposed elevation of the
southern portion of the property remains concerning. They cite the removal of mature
trees, loss of wildlife habitat, potential impacts on neighboring property values, and
changes to the established character and peaceful setting of San Dee Cove Beach.
They emphasize that their family has owned the neighboring property since 1988 and
believe the proposed land alterations and future construction would negatively affect
the neighborhood and future generations. They request that the Planning Commission
deny the application.
Note: All public comments have been formally filed with Land & Resource Management and
were forwarded to the Planning Commission Board Members for review and consideration.
The audience was polled with no one speaking for or against the Conditional Use Permit
Application.
Board Discussion Following Public Comment:
The Commission acknowledged that the applicant had responded well to concerns raised
during the previous review and had made the expected revisions to the application. However,
members noted that opposition letters had been received from nearby residents and
recognized that the project would substantially change their surroundings and experience.
The Commission encouraged the applicant to consider appropriate screening and
landscaping to help preserve the neighboring residents’ experience.
Motion: After consideration and discussion, Trites made a motion, seconded by Langlie to
recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit with the revised grading plan reducing
the hill to an approximate Elevation of 1340 and off-site soil export to approximately 3,715
cubic yards, along with additional erosion and sediment control measures, a haul route and
temporary traffic control plan, and landscaping and irrigation plans to reestablish vegetation,
provide screening, and protect North Lida Lake and neighboring properties with the following
conditions:
1. A pre-construction meeting shall be held involving Land & Resource Management
staff, Professional Engineer (PE) & Contractor.
2. A Professional Engineer (PE) or their designated representative shall be present
onsite during construction to oversee compliance with the approved plans.
Voting: Motion passed, with all members in favor.
Otter Tail County, Planning Commission
October 14, 2026; Page 4
Kimps Kamp LLC – Conditional Use Application Approved as Requested
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Request: Kimp’s Kamp has been a family-owned and
operated resort for several generations. The proposal is to convert the existing resort
property to a residential CIC. The proposed residential CIC would include 12 existing cabins
and 6 new dwelling units, for a total of 18 dwelling units. On the field side of the property,
north of the existing tree line and with no visibility from the lake, designated non-residential
units are proposed for garages, storage, and boat/trailer parking. These units would be
exclusive to the owners of the residential CIC and would provide accessory storage and
parking for the residential units. The proposal is located at 38267 White Haven Rd., Dent MN
56528, Section 08 of Dead Lake Township, Dead Lake (56-383) NE and Unnamed Lake (56-
1538) NE, Parcel No.’s 14000080072000, 14000990282000, 14000990295000,
14000080067008 & 14000080067004.
Maverick Larson, Compass Consultants & Jack Rosenthal (representing the property
owners) represented the Conditional Use Permit Application. Jack Rosethal explained that
the proposed residential planned development would convert the existing commercial resort,
which dates to the 1940s, into individually owned residential units with designated yard space
and accessory storage areas. Units 1G through 12G would be assigned to their
corresponding cabin/residential unit numbers (1-12), while the two additional non-residential
garage/storage units, 13G and 14G, would be available exclusively for purchase by owners
within the CIC and would not be available to outside parties. The applicant also discussed
the possibility of constructing a boardwalk over the wetland area to provide additional
shoreline access and help reduce congestion along the existing shoreline.
Board Discussion with Applicant:
The Commission discussed the proposed residential units, septic systems, and dock and boat slip
arrangements. The applicant explained that Units 13–18 are currently vacant and could
accommodate residential uses, including campers or park models, with adequate space for garages
and utility connections. The existing unit numbers 1-12 are connected to central sewer systems that
have passed compliance. Unit numbers 13 – 18 have enough space to accommodate a septic
system. The HOA also has the ability to accommodate a new system in the common area due to an
existing system needing to be updated.
The Commission also discussed the existing dock configuration and the number of boat slips
permitted under the Shoreland Management Ordinance. The property currently has approximately 30
boat slips associated with eight docks, although the applicant indicated that all 30 are unlikely to be
used simultaneously. The applicant requested approval for 18 boat slips to provide access for
development owners. The Commission noted that the ordinance would generally allow substantially
fewer slips for a new development and emphasized the need to document the basis for any
allowance above the ordinance calculation. Members also clarified parking and utility locations shown
on the proposed plans.
Three (3) comments were received regarding the Conditional Use Permit Application. All
comments were forwarded to the Board Members and Applicant for their review and
consideration.
1. Jeffery Hoger strongly opposes the proposed conversion of Kimp’s Kamp to a
common interest community, expressing concerns about potential negative impacts on
his neighboring property to the west and the lake’s natural resources.
2. Jeff and Lu Ann Kluch, property owners on Whitehaven Road since 2016 and
longtime Kimp’s Kamp customers, expressed concerns regarding the proposed
Common Interest Community and dock expansion. They state that the proposed 30
boat slips exceed the Shoreland Management Ordinance allowance of one slip per
Tier 1 dwelling unit, which they calculate would permit 11 slips. They question whether
Otter Tail County, Planning Commission
October 14, 2026; Page 5
Kimps Kamp LLC – Continued
30 existing, usable slips were historically present, noting that some were unusable due
to shallow water and that resort-owned watercraft occupied slips that were not
necessarily used by cabin guests. They are also concerned that the proposed long
dock running parallel to the shoreline would significantly alter the natural aesthetics of
Dead Lake, a Natural Environment Lake. They request that the Planning Commission
limit the number of slips to 11 and revise the dock layout to better preserve the lake’s
natural character and shoreline views.
3. Angela and Eric Brandenburg, owners at neighboring Firefly CIC, submitted
questions and concerns regarding the proposed Kimp’s Kamp CIC application. They
requested clarification on the overall project timeline, including when resort operations
will cease, parcel sales will begin, and construction will start and finish. They asked
whether the existing cabins will be demolished, renovated, or sold as-is; whether the
six proposed lots will be developed by Kimp’s Kamp or sold for individual
development; the anticipated size of any new homes and garages; and whether the
new lots will have well and sewer access. They also asked whether all 18 units are
permitted under current regulations or if variances are needed.
Additional concerns included potential lighting impacts and light pollution, as well as
permanent lighting along the shared road. They requested a sound study before
installation of the proposed pickleball court due to its proximity to Firefly, with sound
mitigation measures or removal of the court if noise impacts are identified. Regarding
the proposed 30-slip dock structure, they questioned whether the slips are
grandfathered in, expressed concerns about its marina-like appearance and potential
obstruction of views from cabins 2–8, and suggested reconsidering the dock’s
orientation. They also asked whether the slips would be reserved exclusively for CIC
owners or made available to non-owners. Finally, they requested information on how
to access the Planning Commission meeting proceedings and whether a recording
would be available.
The audience was polled with:
1. Nicole from Firefly Development, commented on the proposed boat slips. She
questioned whether the existing dock configuration could realistically accommodate 30
boats, noting that the stated capacity may not reflect the number of boats that could fit.
She expressed concern that adding or formalizing the proposed boat slip arrangement
could create a marina-like atmosphere and substantially change the character of that
area of the lake.
2. Lois Schindler, a neighboring property owner, asked whether there are restrictions
on how far docks may extend from the shoreline. The Commission clarified that docks
cannot be placed in navigable waters. She also asked whether the wooded areas near
Units 13 and 14 would be preserved or cleared for development. The applicant
responded that preserving the wooded character of the property is a priority and that
the CIC declarations include provisions requiring the protection and maintenance of
trees and their health.
Board Discussion Following Public Comment:
The Commission discussed potential grading in the open field area designated for the G
units. Any proposed earthwork would need to be reviewed to determine whether a separate
permit or additional Conditional Use Permit would be required, including measures to prevent
drainage impacts on neighboring properties.
Otter Tail County, Planning Commission

Kimps Kamp LLC – Continued
The Commission also discussed the need for future oversight of dwelling unit expansions
and changes in dwelling unit types to help preserve the character of the development and
minimize impacts on neighboring properties and the lake. The board discussed the following
four conditions if Approval is recommended to County Board:
1. Centralized Dock System
2. Dwelling unit expansions
3. Dwelling unit types
4. Impervious surface limits
Motion: After consideration and discussion, Wilson made a motion, seconded by Fischer, to
recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit to convert the existing resort property to
a residential Common Interest Community (CIC) consisting of 12 existing dwelling units and
6 new dwelling units, for a total of 18 dwelling units. G-Units 1–14 are proposed for garages,
storage, and boat/trailer parking. G-Units 1–12 shall be exclusive to the owners of residential
Units 1–12 within the CIC and provide accessory storage and parking for those units. G-Units
13 and 14 shall be available for purchase exclusively by owners within the CIC, subject to the
following conditions:
1. Centralized dock system: Boat slips shall be provided through a centralized dock
system, with no more than 18 slips permitted.
2. Dwelling unit expansions: Expansion of any existing dwelling unit shall require
approval from the Board of Adjustment.
3. Dwelling unit types: Changes to dwelling unit types that are acceptable to the office
shall not require an additional Conditional Use Permit.
4. Impervious surface limits: Each unit shall not exceed 25% impervious surface
coverage, except Units 4, 6 and 7, which shall not exceed their existing impervious
surface coverage.
Voting: Motion carried with all members in favor.
Barky’s Resort, Ryan Draeger – Conditional Use Permit Application Approved as
Requested
A Conditional Use Permit Application Request: Convert the existing commercial resort
containing 11 units 5 docks and 12 slips into a residential development with 11 units 5 docks
and 12 slips. The proposal is located at 28484 County Hwy 145, Battle Lake MN 56515,
Section 32 of Amor Township, Otter Tail Lake (56-242) GD, Parcel No. 02000320254905,
02000320254901, 02000320263000 & 02000320254003.
Josh Pfeffer, Meadowland Surveying & Ryan Draeger, Applicant represented the
Conditional Use Permit Application. No additional comments
Board Discussion with Applicant:
The Board discussed whether the proposed conversion would result in changes to the
existing property beyond establishing the CIC ownership structure. Members noted that the
proposal primarily changes the ownership arrangement and discussed whether a centralized
dock system was necessary given the property's existing layout and relatively large lake
setting. The Board also discussed the importance of addressing future dwelling expansions
to ensure continued consideration of impacts on neighboring properties and the lake.
Members agreed that conditions should be evaluated based on the circumstances of each
individual development.
Otter Tail County, Planning Commission

Barky’s Resort, Ryan Draeger – Continued
The audience was polled with no one speaking in favor of or in opposition to the Conditional
Use Permit application.
Board Discussion Following Public Comment:
The Board discussed the conditions of approval, including the number of permitted boat slips
and future dwelling expansions. Members discussed the ordinance requirements for dock
and slip numbers and the need to document the approved allowance for future reference.
The Board agreed to limit the development to 11 boat slips and require any expansion of an
existing dwelling unit to obtain approval from the Board of Adjustment. The Board determined
that no additional impervious surface condition was necessary, as future changes would be
subject to applicable review.
Motion: After consideration and discussion, Trites made a motion, seconded by Fischer, to
recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit to convert the existing commercial resort
to a residential development with 11 units, 5 docks and 11 slips subject to the following
conditions:
1. A dock system consisting of 5 docks, with no more than 11 slips permitted.
2. Expansion of any existing dwelling unit shall require approval from the Board of
Adjustment.
Voting: Motion carried with all members in favor.

SUBJECT: Design Engineering Services Contract with Houston Engineering for CSAH 38 Reconstruction
Recommended Action:
• Approve entering into an agreement with Houston Engineering, Inc. for design services for the
reconstruction of CSAH 38 at a cost not to exceed $414,433.00.
Background Information:
The county is planning to reconstruct CSAH 38 between CSAH 5 and Urbank in 2029. While the county is in
the process of dedicating staff to more in-house design, we are in a transition period and staff is committed
to other design work so would be unable to complete the design themselves in a timely manner.
Proposals were solicited and the county received eight proposals. The proposals were ranked based on
qualifications, project understanding, proposed delivery schedule, past experience with the firm/references
and cost. The cost proposals ranged from $315,717 to $577,530. Houston's overall proposal and level of
effort ranked the highest of the eight proposals.

Dear Selection Committee:
We are very excited about this opportunity to work with the County on this highway reconstruction project, this
scope in particular. This segment, along with the one to the west to TH 78, is in need of work. I recently visited the
corridor, reviewed the adjacent landscape and use, and drove the roadway with a 1-ton pickup and utility trailer to
get an overall impression of the corridor's character, highway use, operation's needs, and safety concerns. I have
a vision that will serve the commuter driver, local user, agricultural economy, recreational community, and
regulatory groups.
Our team continues to grow in skill, experience, capacity, and service quality awareness and we believe our
product is second to none. We have learned and grown through every product we have developed for Otter Tail
County, starting with my first project on CSAH 18 at Crooked Lake, and are very excited to display this
development through the CSAH 38 reconstruction project. The team we have assembled exemplifies this
excitement, progress, and experience. Erik and I have both served as County Engineers and will team up to lead
this project. I will serve as the Project Manager confirming the deliverable's quality, objectives, cost, schedule,
and incremental project accomplishments are consistently in your view and on target. Erik will serve as the
Project Engineer overseeing that the design and contract documents are developed coordinating the interests of
all engineering services (roadway design, survey and right-of-way, environmental, utilities, and public interests).
Serving Otter Tail County has been a significant part of my professional life. I am both personally and
professionally committed to representing the County's leadership in a great light to the community. All
departments and the County Board, although it changes throughout the years, have been great supporters of
Houston Engineering, Inc., which we recognize and will never take it for granted.
Thanks for another great opportunity.
Sincerely,

Project Approach
Project Tasks
Project Management
Jeff Langan, PE I Project Manager
have driven CSAH 38 from TH 78 to
Urbank and understand the corridor's
needs, as well as how local
landowners and regulatory agencies
are likely to respond to our desi n
approach.
Jeff will continue to communicate with Jodi and
Bob in a transparent, consistent, and proactive
manner, keeping project objectives related to
quality, cost, and schedule at the forefront of all
decisions.
Jeff will also coordinate production
communications between HEI and the County.
Weekly internal and biweekly meetings will
maintain project progress and focus.
Public Engagement
Erik Hove will lead the public engagement
efforts under the direction and advisement of
Jeff and the designated County Project
Manager. Individual site visits will be used where
most effective, an approach that proved
successful on the Heart of the Lakes Trail
project. Erik will facilitate all discussions with
identified stakeholders to verify goals and
objectives of the project, minimize impacts and
conflicts, and manage stakeholder input. If
desired, he can use online public engagement
tools such as Social Point to streamline
communication and maximize public input. One
in-person public input meeting using an open
house format will be completed after the 30%
design is complete.
Gaining landowner support, including early
coordination with the US Fish and Wildlife
Service (USFWS), will be critical to the success
of the project. Because right-of-way acquisition
will be required along the entire corridor,
adjacent landowners will be the primary
audience. We will build landowner support
through clear, plain-language communication
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 38 Reconstruction
that facilitates efficient right-of-way acquisition
and permitting.
Topographic Survey
Chad Qualley will lead the collection of drone
LiDAR, aerial imagery, and ground survey data
for all existing ground features, which we have
used with great success on several grading
projects in Otter Tail County. Quality control of
data collection and point file development and it
continues to improve with each project. The
proposed schedule is to collect all data
immediately upon notice to proceed and
before snow cover in 2026, allowing for
preliminary design to begin early on to
potentially accelerate project delivery.
Geotechnical Investigation and Soils
HEI will coordinate with the County to review all
available data to determine the appropriate
scope of soil exploration. The existing roadway
is currently subject to a 7-ton spring load
restriction. For this proposal, it is assumed that
Terracon will complete soil borings at intervals of
approximately 1,000 feet along the project
corridor. Because no significant grade changes
are anticipated, the borings are expected to be
advanced to approximately 8 feet below the
existing pavement surface.
Upon completion of the subsurface investigation
and associated laboratory testing, Terracon will
prepare a geotechnical engineering report. The
report will include subgrade preparation
recommendations and a 10-ton bituminous
pavement design. It is assumed that the County
will provide the traffic data required to complete
the pavement design in accordance with State
Aid pavement design guidelines.
Roadway Design and Plans
Roadway Design Approach
Adam Ruud will lead the detailed design efforts
and work closely with other task leads and the
design team to prepare both preliminary and
final construction documents, including Division
S special provisions. All design work will be
completed in accordance with the requirements
5
of the State Aid Manual and Minnesota State Aid
Rules 8820.9920 for rural reconstruction
projects on the state aid system. HEl's
established working relationship with Otter
Tail County provides a strong understanding
of proven design elements used successfully
on past County projects, including sub
cutting poor soils and providing culvert frost
treatments.
We will place quality embankment material
within the top 2 feet of roadway subgrade to
improve long-term pavement performance and
reduce frost-related distress.

Existing Conditions
CSAH 38 is classified as a major collector and a
scenic byway with an existing traffic volume of
approximately 575 annual average daily traffic.
The project corridor is characterized by rolling
terrain, significant horizontal curvature, multiple
depressional wetlands, and public waters
located adjacent to the roadway. The existing
section has minimal to no shoulder width and
non-uniform steep in slopes. Based on the
USGS soil survey, the corridor consists primarily
of American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials A-6, A-7, and some A-8
(muck) soils, which generally provide fair to poor
highway subgrade conditions. These soils
exhibit poor subgrade characteristics and
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 38 Reconstruction
significant frost susceptibility. We will evaluate
embankment material selection, soil blending,
and potential borrow sources with our
geotechnical subconsultant to optimize
performance.
HEI provided planning, environmental review, and
legal surveying and platting services for the 5.5-mile
reconstruction of CSAH 34 from US 10 to CSAH 35,
supporting final design, construction plans, and the
engineer's estimate.
Existing _Roadway Geometry
As part of the preliminary evaluation, the existing
roadway geometry found the following:
• The existing vertical alignments meet or
exceed the requirements for a 45-mph
design speed for stopping sight distance,
with the exception of the intersection of
CSAH 38 and CSAH 87 and the sag curve
immediately west of Urbank. It is anticipated
minor adjustments will be required to correct
the vertical alignment at these locations. Due
to the locations of the existing driveways,
there are also challenging intersection sight
distances throughout the corridor. During the
preliminary layout, the existing profile will be
evaluated based on sight distance standards
for 45 mph and recommended improvements
will be presented for consideration.
• All curves meet a 45-mph design speed;
however, four require 6.0% superelevation.
Preliminary design will evaluate increasing
curve radii to reduce superelevation and
improve driver comfort. Maximum
superelevation rates are most critical within
curves that include intersecting roadways
and driveways, particularly during winter
conditions. We will address these operational
6
concerns through sound design practices
and careful coordination of roadway
geometry. From a preliminary review,
increasing the radii of the first two horizontal
curves west of the intersection with CSAH 87
to approximately 1,000-foot (5.4%
superelevation for 45-mph design speed,
5.9% superelevation for 50 mph) may be
feasible while limiting the shift in the roadway
centerline to approximately
30-foot. Increasing the radii of the first two
horizontal curves east of CSAH 5 will be
more impactful due to the near 90-degree
alignment deflection. Increasing the radii to
1 000 feet at these two locations results in J
nearly a 100-foot shift in the centerline
alignment.
Vertical Profile and Typical Section
It is assumed that the proposed vertical
alignment will generally match existing
conditions, with minor profile adjustments
anticipated to optimize earthwork balance as
well as to correct areas with design speeds less
than 45 mph and insufficient sight distances.
The project includes widening of the existing
roadway to provide 4-foot paved and 1. 5-foot
gravel shoulders, which has potential to impact
adjacent features, including:
• Mailboxes
• Utilities (gas, electric, fiber, and telephone)
• Private fences
A 15-foot clear zone is required along the
corridor based on State Aid standards.
Right-of-Way Considerations in Design
Substantial right-of-way acquisition is anticipated
to achieve a consistent 120-foot right-of-way
width along the corridor. Within Urbank, there
are existing right-of-way encroachments along
the south side of the roadway. Early
coordination with the Otter Tail Power Company
will be essential to avoid delays in right-of-way
acquisition. Additional design consideration will
be required near the residence north of CSAH
38 approximately 1,550 feet west of CSAH 87
due to the proximity of existing structures and
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 38 Reconstruction
potential curve realignment impacts. During
initial project layout, alternatives will be
evaluated to minimize impacts while also
meeting the objectives of the project.
Alternatives may include slight adjustments to
the horizontal alignment to minimize right-of-way
takes from sensitive properties or considerations
for buried pipes to eliminate ditching and needed
right-of-way widths.
Construction Sequencing
There are several private properties and fields
that will require access throughout the duration
of construction, including popular summer
destinations such as Inspiration Peak Camp. We
will develop construction plans that minimize
impacts and maintain access throughout
construction. This will require careful evaluation
of sequencing and potential temporary widening
and graveled areas to maintain local traffic.
Constructible Designs
As the construction industry increasingly relies
on GPS machine control, the importance of
accurate, high-quality surface models has
become critical. Our deliverables will include
detailed surface models and final electronic
design files prepared to the County's
construction staking standards. Early
coordination with County construction staff will
support efficient machine-controlled
construction, improve field accuracy, and reduce
construction staking requirements.
Safety Considerations
Our review of 10 years of crash data identified nine
crashes along the corridor. Five crashes involved
vehicles leaving the roadway, and all three injury
crashes involved roadway departures. Potential
improvements include widened shoulders,
edge-line rumble strips, enhanced curve signing,
and curve realignment where feasible.
Environmental Review and
Permitting
Because no federal funding is anticipated, a
formal CA TEX declaration document is not
expected. However, because right-of-way
7
acquisition may affect federal lands and
wetlands, a formal Environmental
Assessment (EA) may be required to
demonstrate that no significant impacts to
the Waterfowl Production Area will occur. On
past Otter Tail County projects, the local
USFWS refuge manager prepared the EA
internally and issued a Finding of No Significant
Impact. This process will occur concurrently with
right-of-way acquisition and may take six to nine
months. We will support the agency by providing
the information needed to efficiently complete
the determination. HEI will complete a desktop
review to identify required permits and
regulatory requirements. The deliverable will
include a memo identifying environmental
impacts and the measures needed to avoid or
minimize them. These Early coordination
mitigation measures will be incorporated into the
preliminary design and 30% plans for County
review and approval before proceeding with
permit applications and final design.
As part of our cursory review of the project, we
anticipate the following items to be notable:
• Northern Long-Eared Bat-Standard
Avoidance and Minimization Measures
anticipated
• Three areas of Minnesota Biological Survey
Sites of Biodiversity significance
• Five public water basins along the corridor
• No known cultural resources were identified
in the project area
• Project location is not within MS4 boundary
or Watershed District
• No public drainage systems or impaired
waters are present along the project corridor
Stormwater BMPs will be incorporated to
address water quality and we expect only limited
design effort beyond preparing a compliant
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
and meeting permit requirements.
Hydrology and Hydraulic Modeling
Erik Jones will lead the hydraulic analysis for all
centerline culverts larger than 24 inches. The
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 38 Reconstruction
deliverable will include a drainage memo
documenting existing and proposed drainage
features and the contributing drainage area for
each structure. Culvert sizing will be based on
hydraulic performance and acceptable head loss
through the highway, consistent with CSAH
design standards. Hydrology will be developed
using regression equations, and hydraulic
analysis will be completed with HY-8 or
HydroCAD modeling software. Because all
structures are less than 48 inches in diameter,
individual hydraulic reports are not expected to
be needed.
Utility Coordination
Erik will lead utility coordination efforts, with
production support from Josiah Erickson. HEI
will submit the Gopher One Call ticket for both a
field locate and mapped location documentation.
HEI will review the utility information provided,
coordinate with utility companies to verify the
accuracy of survey data and base maps and
request additional information as needed to
resolve data gaps. After the 30% construction
plans are complete, HEI will hold a virtual utility
identification meeting to confirm that utility
ownership and location is shown correctly on the
plan sheets.
Utility conflicts will be identified during 60% plan
development, and coordination meetings will be
conducted to verify conflicts and communicate
relocation or protection-in-place requirements.
Two utility design meetings are anticipated: one
virtual meeting and one on-site meeting. During
the on-site utility meeting, HEI will be
prepared to stake proposed design features
and proposed right-of-way limits to help
utility companies develop relocation plan
strategies. Relocation plans will occur during
the development of 90% plans and completion
of right-of-way acquisition. Utility companies will
prepare and submit final relocation plans to the
County for review and approval.
8
Right-of-Way
This right-of-way scope will consist of preparing
a right-of-way plat for approximately 5 miles of
CSAH 38 in Otter Tail County. It is understood
that this project is anticipated to impact
approximately 42 existing parcels (including
several trusts), and that the surveyor will obtain
their own access permissions from landowners.
HEI has extensive experience working with
Otter Tail County staff on recent corridor
projects involving right-of-way platting and
acquisitions, including several segments of
the Heart of the Lakes and Glacial Edge trail
systems, spanning more than 30 linear miles
of right-of-way work.
Upon notice to proceed, HEI will compile survey,
ownership, and title information, obtain property
access permissions, and coordinate preliminary
legal and vesting reports. All available
information, including but not limited to corner
records, subdivision plats, Certificates of Survey,
highway easements, highway plats, and General
Land Office survey data, will be compiled for use
throughout the course of the project.
Simultaneously with the initial research, we will
begin the process of acquiring landowner
permissions to access impacted properties as
needed. A spreadsheet will be created to
compile landowner information and track the
status of access permission for all parcels along
the project corridor. We will work with N.F. Field
Abstract Company, LLC (N.F. Field) to have
preliminary legal and vesting reports prepared
for impacted parcels, to ensure we have
accurate ownership information for each parcel.
The initial field work will involve searching for
and obtaining accurate data for existing Public
Land Survey System (PLSS) monumentation,
existing highway alignment and right-of-way
monumentation, existing parcel monumentation,
and any other items related to boundary
evidence available to be collected. Once this
initial field survey is completed, theoretical
positions for monuments that were not found as
part of the initial search will be computed, and
Design Engineering Services for CSAH 38 Reconstruction
an additional field search will be completed if
deemed necessary.
Once initial field work is completed, a master
boundary drawing for the project footprint and
surrounding area will be prepared in Civil 3D.
This drawing will provide the basis for
identification of right-of-way needs and platting
as the project progresses. The drawing will
include PLSS section linework, existing highway
alignment and right-of-way linework, and
existing boundary linework for parcels within the
project footprint. Following determination of
right-of-way acquisition needs, linework for the
acquisition limits will be added to the master
boundary drawing, and a preliminary plat will be
prepared clearly showing the extents of existing
highway right-of-way and the limits of the
proposed new acquisition parcels. Any possible
turnback parcels identified during the process
will also be shown on the preliminary
right-of-way plat. As part of this project,
Certificates of Location of Government Corner
will be prepared as needed and filed with the
County Recorder's Office.
Following negotiations between Otter Tail
County and impacted landowners, a final
right-of-way plat will be prepared reflecting any
changes that may have become needed
throughout the negotiation process. Prior to the
right-of-way plat being finalized, N.F. Field will
provide updates, as applicable, to previously
provided legal and vesting reports, to show
current ownership contact information at the
time of plat filing. Following plat finalization,
monumentation will be set for highway
alignment, right-of-way, and abutting parcel
boundaries at an appropriate time to verify
monument preservation following construction.
All right-of-way platting work will be conducted in
accordance with Otter Tail County Highway
Platting Procedures, dated August 14, 2026. We
have incorporated costs for mylars in our
proposal, as required in past projects.

ATTACHMENT B
OUSTON
General Terms and Conditions
engineering, inc.
1. STANDARD OF CARE
Houston shall perform its Services in a manner consistent with that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the same
profession currently practicing under similar circumstances in the region where the Project is located.
2. PAYMENT TERMS
Invoices will be submitted periodically (customarily on a monthly basis) and are due and payable upon receipt. Client agrees to pay a service
charge on all accounts 30 days or more past due at a rate equal to one percent (1%) each month but in no event shall such service charge
exceed the maximum amount allowed by law. Acceptance of any payment from Client without accrued service charges shall not be deemed to
be a waiver of such service charges by Houston. In the event Client is past due with respect to any invoice Houston may, after giving seven (7)
days written notice to Client, suspend all services without liability until Client has paid in full all amounts owing Houston on account of services
rendered and expenses incurred, including service charges on past due invoices. Payment of invoices is not subject to discount or offset by
Client.
3. CHANGES OR DELAYS
If the Project requires conceptual or process development services, such services often are not fully definable in the initial planning. If, as the
Project progresses, facts develop that in Houston's judgment dictate a change in the Services to be performed, Houston shall inform Client of
such changes and the parties shall negotiate, in good faith, with respect to any change in scope and adjustment to the time of performance and
compensation and modify the Agreement accordingly. Houston may also proceed with additional services specifically requested in writing by the
Client, including electronic communications, without a written modification to the Agreement. Client shall compensate Houston for the additional
services in an amount equal to the cumulative hours worked multiplied by the billing rates specified in the Agreement, or based on Houston's
standard billing rates if billing rates are not specified in the Agreement; plus reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection with providing the
additional services. In the event the parties are unable to reach an agreement, either party may terminate this Agreement without liability by giving
fourteen (14) days written notice to the other party. In the event of termination, the final invoice will include all Services and expenses associated
with the Project up to the effective date of termination and will also include equitable adjustment to reimburse Houston for any termination
settlement costs incurred relating to commitments that had become firm before termination plus a 10 percent markup on those settlement costs.
4. PAYMENT
Where the method of payment under the Agreement is based upon cost reimbursement (e.g., hourly rate, time and materials, direct personnel
expense, per diem, etc.), the following shall apply: (a) the minimum time segment for charging work is one-quarter hour; (b) labor (hours worked)
and expenses will be charged at rates commensurate with the attached fee schedule or, if none is attached, with Houston's current fee schedule
(at the time of the work); (c) when applicable, rental charges will be applied to cover the cost of pilot-scale facilities or equipment, apparatus,
instrumentation, or other technical machinery. When such charges are applicable, Client will be advised at the start of an assignment, task, or
phase; and (d) invoices based upon cost reimbursement will be submitted showing labor (hours worked) and total expense. If requested by Client,
Houston shall provide supporting documentation at Client's cost, including labor and copying costs.
5. TERMINATION
Either party may terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, by giving thirty (30) days written notice to the other party if the other party fails to
fulfill its obligations under this Agreement through no fault of the terminating party. In such event, and subject to the limitations set forth in this
Agreement, the non-defaulting party may pursue its rights and remedies as contemplated by this Agreement and as allowed by law.
6. BETTERMENT
If any item or component of the Services or an amended Task Order is required due to omission from the original documents or Task Order
provided to Houston, Houston's liability shall be limited to the reasonable costs of correction of the omission, less the cost to Client if the omitted
item or component had been initially included in the original documents or Services documents. All costs of errors, omissions or other changes
that result in betterment shall be borne by Client and shall not be a basis of a claim against Houston. In no event will Houston be responsible for
that portion of any cost or expense that provides betterment or upgrades or enhances the value of the Services.
7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
In no event shall Houston be liable for punitive, special, incidental, indirect, consequential, or lost profit damages of any kind or nature, regardless
of the form of action to which such damages are sought. Houston's maximum cumulative liability with respect to all claims and liabilities under
this Agreement, whether or not insured, shall not exceed the greater of $50,000 or the total compensation received by Houston under this
Agreement, whether such claim is based on negligence, breach of contract, or any other theory. The disclaimers and limitations of liability set
forth in this Agreement shall apply regardless of any other contrary provision set forth and regardless of the form of action, whether in contract,
tort or otherwise. Each provision of this Agreement which provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranty or condition or exclusion of
damages is severable and independent of any other provision and is to be enforced as such. Client hereby releases Houston from any and all
liability over and above the limitations set forth in this paragraph.
8. INSURANCE
Houston shall obtain and maintain during the term of this Agreement, at its own expense, workers' compensation insurance and commercial
general liability insurance in amounts determined by Houston and will, upon request, furnish insurance certificates to Client. The existence of any
such insurance shall not increase Houston's liability as limited by paragraph 6 above.
9. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES
Client shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Houston all documents and information known by Client that relate to the identity, location, quantity,
nature, or characteristics of any asbestos, pollutant, or hazardous substance, however defined ("Hazardous Substances") at, on or under the
Project site. Houston is not, and has no responsibility as a handler, generator, operator, treater, storer, transporter, or disposer of Hazardous
Substances found or identified at the Project. Client agrees to bring no claim for fault, negligence, breach of contract, indemnity, or other action
against Houston, its principals, employees, agents, and consultants, if such claim in any way would relate to Hazardous Substances in connection
with the Project. If Hazardous Substances are identified or located at the Project site, Houston may suspend all Services without liability until
remediation of the Hazardous Substances is complete. Houston reserves the right to adjust the attached Fee Schedule or any rate schedule of
General Terms and Conditions -Form Version 9/30/24
Houston's subconsultants for specialized fees or services related to remediation of Hazardous Substances as agreed in writing between Houston
and Client. Client further agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Houston, its principals, employees,
agents, and consultants and subconsultants from and against all fees, costs, claims, damages, losses, and expenses, direct or indirect, or
consequential damages, including but not limited to fees and charges for third-party remediation specialists, experts, attorneys, and court and
arbitration costs, arising out of or resulting from the performance of Houston's Services hereunder, or claims brought against Houston by third
parties arising from Houston's Services or the services of others and/or work in any way associated with Hazardous Substance activities. This
indemnification shall survive termination of this Agreement.
10. INDEMNIFICATION
Client shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Houston, together with its officers, directors, shareholder, agents, consultants and employees
from and against any and all claims, costs, losses and damages, including attorneys' fees and other costs of litigation or dispute resolution arising
directly or indirectly from Client's breach of this Agreement or Client's fault, negligent acts or omissions or intentional misconduct in connection
with this Agreement or the Project. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Houston shall indemnify and hold harmless Client,
together with its officers, directors, and employees from and against any and all, costs, losses and damages, including reasonable attorneys' fees
and other costs of litigation or dispute resolution to the extent caused by Houston's fault, negligent acts or omissions in connection with this
Agreement or the Project. The indemnification obligations set forth in this paragraph shall survive termination of this Agreement.
11. WARRANTY
Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, Houston has not made and does not make any warranties or representations
whatsoever, express or implied, as to Services performed or products provided including, without limitation, any warranty or
representation as to: (a) the merchantability or fitness or suitability of the Services or products for a particular use or purpose whether
or not disclosed to Houston; and (b) delivery of the Services and products free of the rightful claim of any person by way of infringement
(including, but not limited to, patent or copyright infringement) or the like. Houston does not warrant and will not be liable for any design,
material or construction criteria furnished or specified by Client and incorporated into the Services provided hereunder.
12. CONTRACTOR MEANS AND METHODS
Houston has no control over, supervision of, or responsibility for construction of the Project or at the Project site. Client is solely responsible for
retaining a qualified contractor or contractors licensed in the jurisdiction of the project (separately or collectively, the "Contractor") to implement
the construction of the Project ("Work"). Contractor shall coordinate, control, supervise, and direct all portions of the Work and shall be solely
responsible for, and have control over, construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, procedures, safety, and security. Houston shall
not be responsible for and shall bear no liability for Contractor's failure to perform the Work in accordance with the requirements of the Project

Houston, and Houston's subconsultants, officers, directors, shareholder, agents, consultants, and employees from and against claims, damages,
losses, and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys' fees and costs, arising out of or resulting from performance of the Work. Contractor
shall provide insurance and name Client, Houston, and Houston's subconsultants as additional insureds on Contractor's commercial general
liability insurance policies on a primary and non-contributory basis. The amount of coverage available to the additional insureds shall be the
amount of coverage required in the Client-Contractor agreement.
13. PROJECT SITE
Client shall furnish such reports, data, studies, plans, specifications, documents, and other information regarding surface and subsurface site
conditions required by Houston for proper performance of its Services. Houston shall be entitled to rely upon Client provided documents and
information in performing the Services required under this Agreement. Houston assumes no responsibility or liability for the accuracy or
completeness of any such documents or information. Houston will not direct, supervise, or control the Work, means or methods of Contractor or
its/their subcontractors in connection with the Project. Houston's Services will not include a review or evaluation of the Contractor's or
subcontractor's safety measures. The presence of Houston, its employees, agents, or subcontractors on a site shall not imply that Houston
controls the operations of others, nor shall it be construed to be an acceptance by Houston of any responsibility for jobsite safety.
14. CONFIDENTIALITY
Houston shall maintain as confidential and not disclose to others without Client's prior consent all information obtained from Client that was not
otherwise previously known to Houston or in the public domain and is expressly designated by Client in writing to be "CONFIDENTIAL." The
provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to information in whatever form that (a) is published or comes into the public domain through no fault
of Houston, (b) is furnished by or obtained from a third party who is under no obligation to keep the information confidential, or (c) is required to
be disclosed by law on order of a court, administrative agency, or other authority with proper jurisdiction. Client agrees that Houston may use and
publish Client's name and a general description of Houston's services with respect to the Project in describing Houston's experience and
qualifications to other clients or potential clients.
15. RE-USE OF DOCUMENTS
All documents, including drawings and specifications, prepared or furnished by Houston (and Houston's affiliates, agents, subsidiaries,
independent professional associates, consultants, and subcontractors) pursuant to this Agreement are instruments of service in respect of the
Project, and Houston shall retain ownership thereof, whether or not the Project is completed. Client may make and retain copies for information
and reference in connection with the Project; however, such documents are not intended or represented to be suitable for re-use by Client or
others on extensions of the Project or on any other project. Any re-use without written verification or adaptation by Houston for the specific
purpose intended will be at Client's sole risk and without liability to Houston or Houston's affiliates, agents, subsidiaries, independent professional
associates, consultants, and subcontractors with respect to any and all costs, expenses, fees, losses, claims, demands, liabilities, suits, actions,
and damages whatsoever arising out of or resulting therefrom. Any such verification or adaptation will entitle Houston to further compensation at
rates to be agreed upon by Client and Houston. Client shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Houston, together with its officers, directors,
shareholder, agents, consultants and employees from and against any and all claims, costs, losses, and damages, including attorneys' fees and
other costs of litigation or dispute resolution arising directly or indirectly from Client's re-use of all information, documents, drawings, specifications
prepared as part of the Project.
16. REMEDIES
Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, in the event any party is in default of this Agreement, the non-defaulting party shall be entitled
to pursue all rights and remedies available to it under this Agreement or as allowed by law.
General Terms and Conditions -Form Version 9/30/24 2
17. PROPRIETARY DATA
The technical and pricing information in connection with the Services provided by Houston is confidential and proprietary and is not to be disclosed
or otherwise made available to third parties by Client without the express written consent of Houston.
18. GOVERNING LAW
The validity, construction and performance of this Agreement and all disputes between the parties arising out of or related to this Agreement
shall be governed by the laws, without regard to the law as to choice or conflict of law, of the State of Minnesota. Client consents to jurisdiction
as to all issues concerning or relating to this Agreement or the Project with the federal or state district courts designated for Otter Tail County,
Minnesota.
19. DATA PRACTICES ACT REQUESTS
Houston considers certain information developed during the execution of services as "not public" and "protected" from public disclosure under
the various local, state, and federal data practices laws. Client shall reimburse Houston for any and all costs and expenses, including attorneys'
fees associated with any requests for release of information under any such laws.
20. FORCE MAJEURE
Houston shall not be liable for any loss, damage or delay resulting out of its failure to perform hereunder due to, without limitation, causes beyond
its reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of God, acts of nature or the Client, acts of civil or military authority, terrorists threats or
attacks, fires, strikes, floods, epidemics, pandemics, quarantine restrictions, war, riots, delays in transportation, transportation embargos,
extraordinary weather conditions or other natural catastrophe or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of Houston, if such could have
not been overcome by the exercise of reasonable efforts by Houston (each, an "Event of Force Majeure). Any delay due to an Event of a Force
Majeure shall not be deemed to be a breach of or failure to perform this Agreement or any part hereof; provided, however, Houston shall provide
reasonable notice to the Client of any Event of Force Majeure which notice shall provide the particulars of the cause of the event of Force Majeure
in writing. In the event of any such delay, Houston's performance date(s) will be extended for that length of time as may be reasonably necessary
to compensate for the delay.
21. WAIVER OF JURY
In the interest of expediting any disputes that might arise between Houston and Client, Client hereby waives its rights to a trial by jury of any
dispute or claim concerning this Agreement, the Services, the Project and any other documents or agreements contemplated by or executed in
connection with this Agreement.
22. BUSINESS ENTITY
Client acknowledges that Houston is a business corporation and agrees that any claim made by Client arising out of any act or omission of any
shareholder, director, officer, or employee of Houston in the execution or performance of this Agreement shall be made solely against Houston

Board of Commissioners
Jodi Teich, County Engineer

HIGHWA'l
505 South Court Street, Suite •
Fergus Falls, MN 5653'.
SUBJECT: Request for Commuting with County Vehicles -2026/2027 Snow and Ice Season
Recommended Action:
• Authorize Use of County Vehicles for Commuting for Certain Employees for the 2026/2027 Snow
and Ice Season
Background Information:
In accordance with the Otter Tail County Personnel Rules, Section 450.15.J.(2) it is requested that the
following Highway Department employees be authorized to use a County vehicle for commuting for the
remainder of 2026 and through the 2026/2027 snow and ice season: Bruce Haugrud and Jeff Arndt. These
employees are acting group leaders and assist the maintenance superintendent and east and west side
group leaders in evaluating road conditions before and after work hours to help determine when to call plow
operators in.
Employees will be taxed on the amount equal to personal miles driven multiplied by the current Federal
standard mileage rate, in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service's Publication 15-8, Employer's Tax
Guide to Fringe Benefits, Section 3. Fringe Benefit Valuation Rules, Cent-Per-Mile Rule. Staff will not count
normal commute time as paid work hours.
We believe the miles traveled and overall time needed to conduct County business will be minimized by
allowing these employees to keep the County vehicles at their homes.
The county board authorized the maintenance superintendent and group leaders to use a county vehicle for
commuting year-round at its August 11, 2026 meeting.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of Commissioners
FROM: Jodi Teich, County Engineer
DATE: October 22, 2026
SUBJECT: Out of State Travel Request
Recommended Action:
• Approve out of state travel for County Engineer to travel to 1) Washington, DC from February 17 –
21, 2027 to attend the NACE Legislative Fly In; and 2) Cleveland, Ohio from April 3 - 8, 2027 to
attend the National Association of County Engineers (NACE) Annual Conference
Background Information:
The NACE Legislative Fly In annually takes place just ahead of the National Association of Counties
Legislative Conference in Washington, DC. As a member of NACE’s executive committee, all travel costs
are covered for me. The only cost to the county is my time. The Fly In provides an opportunity to meet with
leadership and staff from the USDOT/FHWA, the Army Corps of Engineers, EPA and FEMA, as well as
members and staff from Otter Tail County’s congressional delegation. There will be opportunities to discuss
not only NACE legislative priorities, but also priorities specific to Otter Tail County.
The NACE annual conference provides educational opportunities for county road officials and industry
representatives. As the North Central Regional Vice President I am a member of NACE’s executive
committee, as well as an active participant on the Safety & Technology and Legislative committees. My
position on the executive committee requires that I be at meetings that take place the two days before the
start of the conference. This year’s conference will include sessions on road safety planning, leadership
development, pavement preservation, emergency preparedness and structures. All of these sessions will
provide insight for the many initiatives currently being pursued by Otter Tail County. The estimated cost for
attendance at the annual conference is $2900. The annual conference is the one NACE event that the
county will be asked to fund for the county engineer.

OTTER TAIL COUNTY CHILDREN’S MENTAL HEALTH
What youth, educators, and school-based mental health providers are telling us — and where the system needs to go next
THE CENTRAL MESSAGE
Mental health is foundational to learning, development, and long-term wellbeing. Otter Tail County has strong people and promising
programs, but access, prevention, family engagement, and youth trust remain gaps.
WHAT IS WORKING
• School-based mental health and community partnerships improve
access and support relationships.
• Trusted adults and smaller caseloads help build connection and trust.
• Youth show empathy, peer support, and willingness to help one
another.
• Mental-health infrastructure and interagency collaboration are
expanding.
WHERE GAPS REMAIN
• Rising anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm reports, and
increasingly complex early-childhood needs.
• Too few providers, long waits, cost and transportation barriers, and
limited school-day capacity.
• Family engagement, stigma, cultural barriers, and limited
mental-health knowledge.
• Bullying/social-media pressures and concerns about confidentiality
and trust.
• Systems can be reactive rather than ongoing and preventative.
YOUTH SAY THEY NEED
To feel seen, heard & valued Fast, trustworthy access to help
Ongoing prevention—not crisis-only Family education & support
Practical coping & self-advocacy skills Time for connection at school
Youth-centered community spaces & voice
8 PRIORITIES FOR DECISION MAKERS
1. Expand school-based therapists & dedicated counselors
2. Strengthen parent coaching and family therapy
3. Expand early-childhood mental health & early prevention
4. Fund continuous, preventative and peer/youth-led supports
5. Reduce transportation, cost and wait-time barriers
6. Increase school-day mental-health capacity & staff training
7. Formalize youth voice and co-design
8. Strengthen bullying response & digital wellbeing education
“Connection before content.”

health providers/school counselors.
Otter Tail County Children’s Mental Health Local Advisory Committee | FY 2027
OTTER TAIL COUNTY CHILDREN’S MENTAL HEALTH
FY 2027 Report to County Commissioners — Two-Page Summary
Prepared by the Children’s Mental Health Local Advisory Committee (CMH LAC)
Purpose & Sources
The CMH LAC report synthesizes quantitative data from the most recent Minnesota Student Survey,
qualitative feedback from two youth listening sessions, and input from frontline school-based
mental health providers and school counselors. Across these sources, one message is consistent:
mental health is foundational to learning, development, and long-term wellbeing, while current
systems remain somewhat reactive, fragmented, and under-resourced.
What Is Working
• School-based mental health and partnerships: co-located professionals improve access;
school/community collaboration and programs such as BARR and MTSS support relationships,
attendance, and wraparound services.
• Dedicated, caring adults: teachers, counselors, and support staff are highly valued. Trusted adult
relationships are a critical protective factor; smaller caseload models allow time to build trust.
• Youth strengths and peer support: youth show empathy, acceptance of differences, and
willingness to support peers. Peer networks are often the first line of support.
• Growing infrastructure: insurance coverage, crisis response, CTSS, early childhood mental health
and behavioral supports, and interagency collaboration have expanded.
Key Challenges & System Gaps
• Family engagement and capacity: stigma, limited mental-health knowledge, cultural barriers,
work/family demands, and reluctance to engage can limit follow-through and the impact of
school-based services.
• Rising and increasingly complex needs: reported self-harm, anxiety, depression, trauma, and
early-childhood dysregulation/referrals are increasing; some youth feel adults do not understand
or take their experiences seriously.
• Substance use as coping: youth may use vaping, marijuana, or alcohol to cope with anxiety,
stress, sleep, or emotions.
• Bullying and social media: in-person and online conflict can spill into school; students report
concerns about follow-through, while schools cannot address every issue originating outside
school.
• Access and capacity: too few therapists and school counselors, long waits, cost, transportation,
stigma, limited awareness of resources, and limited school-day time for services.
• Trust and confidentiality: fear of information being shared, stigma, peer judgment, and visibility of
seeking help can discourage students from accessing adults.
• Reactive rather than preventative: responses can be crisis-driven, short-term, or inconsistent.
Youth described a sense that something tragic has to happen before mental health is discussed.
• Youth-centered design and generational disconnect: students want to be treated as people first,
with their experiences and perspectives incorporated into decisions.
Otter Tail County Children’s Mental Health Local Advisory Committee | FY 2027
• Rural inequities: transportation, limited local services, and a lack of youth-centered community
spaces can create additional barriers; quieter or high-functioning students may be overlooked.
What Youth Say They Need
• To feel seen, heard, and valued through authentic listening, follow-up, and real relationships.
• Faster, more accessible, trustworthy mental-health support—including dedicated staff, private
ways to seek help, and less stigma.
• Ongoing programming rather than crisis-only responses: regular groups/safe spaces, peer
connection, and prevention beginning at younger ages.
• Family education and support so parents can understand mental health, communicate
effectively, and support youth at home.
• Practical coping and self-advocacy skills, including emotional regulation and real-life strategies.
• Balanced school environments with time for connection and recognition that mental health
affects learning.
• Youth-centered community opportunities and meaningful participation in decision-making.
Priorities for County & Community Decision Makers
• 1. Invest in the workforce: expand school-based therapists and counselors in dedicated mental-
health roles; reduce caseloads to allow relationship-building.
• 2. Strengthen family-focused services: expand parent coaching and family therapy and provide
education that reduces stigma and improves engagement.
• 3. Prioritize early intervention: expand early-childhood mental health services and begin mental-
health education in elementary school.
• 4. Shift toward prevention: fund continuous programming, peer groups, and youth-led initiatives—
not only crisis response.
• 5. Reduce access barriers: address transportation, cost, wait times, and flexibility for school-day
service delivery.
• 6. Strengthen school-based systems: increase time for mental-health support, reduce
administrative burden on counselors, and train all staff in mental-health awareness and
response.
• 7. Elevate youth voice: formalize youth advisory input, co-design programs with students, and
regularly gather and act on feedback.
• 8. Address bullying and digital wellbeing: strengthen accountability, educate about digital
wellbeing, and ensure consistent follow-through on reports.
The Direction Forward
PREVENTION • RELATIONSHIPS • YOUTH VOICE
“Connection before content.”
Otter Tail County has a strong foundation of committed professionals and promising programs. The
report calls for continued evolution toward prevention, stronger relationships, accessible supports,
and youth-centered systems that respond to the growing complexity of children’s and adolescents’
mental health needs.
