At 5:31 P.M., Mayor Hawkinson recessed the Regular Meeting and opened the Public Forum.
Betsy Hennen addressed the Council regarding tree selection for the Viking Drive shelter belt on behalf of several
residents. Hennen expressed a preference for a variety of tree species rather than a single species and raised
concerns regarding disease susceptibility, effects on nearby fruit trees, spacing, and mature tree size. Hennen
provided staff with a list of suggested tree species. Torkelson thanked Hennen and her husband for participating in
the June 22 community tree planting event associated with the City's tree planting grant. Staff, Public Works

DISCUSSION ITEMS
Public Hearing to Consider Use of Program Income Funds for Downtown Streetscape Improvement Project
At 5:38 P.M., Mayor Hawkinson temporarily recessed the Regular Meeting and opened the Public Hearing.
Councilmember Ferguson recused herself from the discussion due to a potential business interest.
EDA Director Susie Lang presented information regarding approximately $350,000 in restricted program income
funds originating from the former DEED Small Cities Development Program. The funds have remained largely
unused due to program restrictions. The EDA has been working with DEED to identify an eligible use for the funds,
and DEED indicated that a downtown streetscape improvement project would be an eligible use. The proposed
project would address deteriorated downtown sidewalks and public infrastructure by removing and replacing
decorative pavers and related sidewalk areas in approximately eight downtown blocks. The project is intended to
meet the national objective of eliminating slum and blight and would improve sidewalk safety, accessibility, and

walkability. An environmental review will be required prior to the project. SEH is assisting with the environmental
review, which is estimated at approximately $15,000. The available program income funds are anticipated to cover
the environmental review and project costs. The final project cost is not yet known. If funds remain available, the
application may include other eligible downtown improvements, such as benches, lighting, speakers, or signage.
The project is anticipated to begin in spring 2027. The City and EDA will communicate with downtown businesses
and property owners as the project progresses. Staff explained that the funds are subject to significant federal and
state restrictions and cannot be used for many traditional EDA purposes or direct business assistance. The funds
originated through the Small Cities Development Program, were converted to program income, and have remained
unused since approximately 2014 while the City and EDA worked with DEED to identify an eligible use.
There being no public comments, the Public Hearing was closed and the Regular Meeting reopened at 5:45 P.M.
Parcel 35-00004-00 Discussion / House of Hope
Torkelson provided an update regarding the City-owned parcel currently leased to House of Hope and potential
options for subdivision and/or sale of the property. Staff identified several issues related to subdivision, including
the existing garage being approximately five feet from the side property line where the agricultural zoning district
requires a ten-foot setback, which would result in a nonconforming parcel. Staff also noted that the area commonly
referred to as 26th Street is privately owned and is not an officially dedicated right-of-way, creating access
considerations. Airport clear-zone requirements must also be considered. Torkelson explained that the property was
originally acquired through a 90% State and 10% City funding arrangement. If the property is sold, the proceeds
would be subject to the same funding arrangement, with 10% allocated to the City and 90% to the State. The
Council discussed options including continuing the existing lease, selling the entire approximately seven-acre
parcel, subdividing the property, or selling the buildings and relocating them. The Council also discussed the
importance of maintaining appropriate airport access and easements and the possibility of relocating the garage.
House of Hope representatives discussed issues with windows allowing snow into the building and a storm door
that requires repair. House of Hope requested the ability to make minor repairs to the property. Staff explained that
the current lease places responsibility for doors and windows with the City and noted concerns regarding ongoing
maintenance of the storm door. The City Attorney recommended that the property be inspected for code and safety
issues and that applicable landlord-tenant requirements be reviewed before any changes to maintenance
responsibilities are made.
Motion by Howard, second by Ferguson, to continue the lease with House of Hope for an additional 12 months.
Motion carried.
Application for Exemption from Olivia's Garbage Program
Torkelson presented an application for an exemption from the City's garbage program for a vacant residential
property that is listed for sale. The property is owned by an estate and is currently unoccupied. The City Attorney
explained that the City's ordinance, consistent with state law, provides for an exemption when an environmentally
sound alternative method of garbage disposal is being used. Vacancy alone does not technically meet the exemption
requirements. The Council discussed whether a vacant property could be treated differently while unoccupied and
the potential precedent that could be established for vacant rental properties, seasonal properties, and other similar
situations. The Council also discussed the possibility of using utility changes to identify when properties become
occupied and the need for documentation if an alternative disposal method is claimed.
Motion by Baumgartner, second by Howard, to deny the application for an exemption from the City's garbage
program. Motion carried.
Alley Improvement Project
Torkelson reported that two quotes received for the alley improvement project were higher than the original
estimate and that the project cost, including engineering, would exceed $100,000. Staff recommended declining the
current quotes and postponing the project until 2027, when the City is expected to receive its next annual
installment of Transportation Advancement Account Small Cities Assistance Program funds. Staff indicated that
rebidding the project in spring 2027 may result in more competitive pricing. The Council discussed whether EDA
program income funds could be used for the project. Staff indicated that the funds likely could not be used for the

alley project and would confirm eligibility requirements. The Council also discussed a significant, approximately
eight-inch sunken area between the post office and print shop that may present a safety concern. Public Works will
inspect the area and determine whether a temporary repair is needed before winter.
Council consensus was to pause the project, address any immediate safety concerns, and revisit the project in spring
2027.
Flock Cameras
Councilmember Baumgartner raised concerns regarding the use of Flock cameras, including privacy, data retention,
potential vehicle identification errors, and government surveillance. Torkelson explained that the City does not own
or operate Flock cameras. The camera located within Olivia's municipal boundaries is operated by the Renville
County Sheriff's Office on MnDOT right-of-way with MnDOT permission and is being used as part of a trial
period. The Council discussed the City's limited authority over the camera and the possibility of providing feedback
to the agency responsible for its operation. Sheriff Hable has indicated a willingness to discuss the system with the
Council. The City Attorney explained that the legal treatment of Flock camera data varies depending on how
systems are operated and that restrictions may apply to the collection, retention, and sharing of the data. The City
Attorney recommended hearing directly from the Sheriff's Office before considering any formal action. Mayor
Hawkinson indicated that Councilmembers could advocate individually regarding the issue and suggested that the
Council hear from Sheriff Hable.
No formal action was taken.
Police Department
Torkelson provided an update regarding Police Chief Krumheuer's voluntary request to step down from the Chief
position and return to full-time patrol officer effective January 1, 2027. Chief Krumheuer submitted his written
request on July 9, 2026, and has requested to remain Chief through December 31, 2026, to assist with an orderly
transition and recruitment of a new Chief. Torkelson reviewed the requested terms of the transition, including
waiver of a probationary period, assignment to a primary squad, outside employment consistent with City policy,
and a request for retroactive on-call compensation for January 1 through June 30, 2026. Torkelson explained that a
probationary period would not be necessary for the internal transition and that the requested squad assignment and
outside employment would be addressed consistent with department operations and City policy. The Council
discussed Chief Krumheuer's request for retroactive on-call compensation. Torkelson noted that exempt employees
are expected to work the hours necessary to fulfill their responsibilities and that the Personnel Committee
previously recommended an on-call stipend effective July 6, 2026, in response to staffing shortages and additional
coverage needs. The Council did not approve retroactive compensation for January through June 2026. Chief
Krumheuer discussed the demands of the Chief position and his desire to remain with the Police Department as a
patrol officer. The Council also discussed the duties and expectations that should be clearly defined as part of the
recruitment of a new Chief.
Motion by Ferguson, second by Baumgartner, to adopt Resolution 2026-82, accepting Chief Jason Krumheuer's
voluntary request to step down as Police Chief and reassigning him to a full-time patrol officer position effective
January 1, 2027, with Chief Krumheuer remaining Police Chief through December 31, 2026. Motion carried.
City Administrator Torkelson presented proposals from SCSC and DDA for executive search services for the Police
Chief position. Torkelson recommended SCSC based on its lower cost, estimated 12–14 week search timeline, and
prior experience.
Motion by Ferguson, second by Baumgartner, to accept the SCSC proposal for executive search services. Motion
carried.
REPORTS
Torkelson reported on energy audits conducted through the MMDC Climate Action Plan Grant and Energy Audit
Grant. Audits were completed for the Community Center, Liquor Store, and Library. The reports are included in the
Council packet and will be used to help guide future building improvements and energy-efficiency projects.
CenterPoint has also contacted the City regarding potential energy-saving improvements at the Community Center.

Baumgartner reported that the Beck's ribbon-cutting event was well attended and included food, ice cream, and
activities. Baumgartner noted that the event was part of Beck's annual technology event and expressed appreciation
to Beck's for hosting the community.
Baumgartner discussed observations of iron chlorosis and declining tree health in the community. Baumgartner
explained that high soil pH can limit iron availability to trees and noted symptoms such as yellowing leaves with
green veins and reduced growth. Baumgartner shared information regarding treatments he has used and encouraged
residents to monitor tree health and consult appropriate resources regarding treatment options.
No additional reports were presented.
NOTICES AND COMMUNICATION
Budget Work Session – September 3, 2026.
No additional notices or communications were reported.

Mayor Hawkinson reported that the Council reviewed City Administrator Elizabeth Torkelson's performance over
the past year, including the 360-degree performance review, and determined that she is meeting or exceeding
expectations.

Memorandum
To: Olivia City Council
From: Elizabeth Torkelson, City Administrator
RE: Transition from Commercial Microsoft 365 to Microsoft 365 GCC

Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City transition from its current commercial Microsoft 365 environment to
Microsoft 365 GCC. This change will provide the City with a more appropriate government-focused
platform, strengthen the City's security and compliance posture, and support the City's transition to
a .gov website and email domain.
Background
The City currently utilizes the commercial version of Microsoft 365 for its email, productivity, and
collaboration needs. Microsoft 365 GCC is designed specifically for government organizations and
provides an environment better suited to the City’s governmental operations, security requirements, and
long-term technology needs.
Why the Change is Needed
One of the primary reasons for making this transition is the City’s ongoing effort to move its website
and online presence to a .gov domain. The federal government has increasingly emphasized the use
of .gov domains by government entities to provide the public with a trusted and recognizable way to
identify official government websites and communications.
Moving to a .gov domain is not simply a website change. It requires the City to review and update its
broader technology and identity infrastructure, including domain ownership, authentication, email,
security, and related Microsoft services.
Benefits to the City
The transition to Microsoft 365 GCC will provide several benefits:

1009 WEST LINCOLN AVE, OLIVIA, MN 56277
T 320-523-2361 U HTTPS://OLIVIA.MN.US/

•

Government-focused environment: GCC is specifically designed for U.S. government
organizations and provides a Microsoft 365 environment tailored to public-sector requirements.

•

Improved security and compliance: GCC provides additional security and compliance
capabilities appropriate for government entities and sensitive municipal information.

•

Support for the .gov transition: The move provides an opportunity to align the City's Microsoft
365 environment, email, domain, and authentication systems as we transition the City's website
to a .gov domain.

•

Long-term technology planning: Moving now will prevent the City from investing further in a
commercial environment that may need to be reconfigured as the City's technology and domain
requirements evolve.

•

Continuity of existing tools: Staff will continue using familiar Microsoft products such as
Outlook, Word, Excel, Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint, minimizing disruption to daily
operations.

•

Better alignment with municipal operations: GCC provides the City with a technology platform
specifically intended for government organizations rather than a general commercial
environment.

Cost and Implementation
The transition will require some staff and vendor support to configure the GCC environment and
migrate or validate existing accounts and data.
Currently our commercial Microsoft 365 licenses are through West Central Technology and we have
included quotes for this project from our provider. There are two quotes because the Police Department
will be transitioned over to a separate tenant for security reasons.
Staff believes completing this transition as part of the City's broader .gov implementation is the most
efficient and responsible approach and will position the City for its future technology and cybersecurity
needs.

RESOLUTION 2026-84
Resolution Approving Transition to Microsoft 365 GCC
WHEREAS, the City of Olivia currently utilizes the commercial version of Microsoft 365 for its email,
productivity, collaboration, and other technology needs; and

Cloud (GCC), which is designed specifically for U.S. government organizations and provides an environment better suited to
the City's governmental operations, security, and compliance needs; and
WHEREAS, the City is also working to transition its official website and related digital services to a .gov
domain, and transitioning to Microsoft 365 GCC will assist the City in aligning its Microsoft 365 environment, domain,
email, authentication, and related technology infrastructure as part of that process; and
WHEREAS, West Central Technology has provided quotes to complete the transition and provide one year of
Microsoft 365 GCC licensing with the total cost of the proposed transition and one year of licensing for all City accounts is
$22,162.10;
WHEREAS, City staff has reviewed the proposed transition and recommends accepting the quotes from West Central
Technology and proceeding with the migration to Microsoft 365 GCC.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Olivia, Minnesota, hereby

Government Community Cloud (GCC). The City Council hereby accepts the quotes from West Central Technology in the
following amounts: $6,634.30 for the Police Department, and $15,527.80 for all other City accounts. The City Administrator
and appropriate City staff are authorized to execute any necessary agreements and take all actions necessary to complete the
transition, including coordinating the migration of City accounts, email, data, and related Microsoft 365 services.

From: Planning & Zoning Administrator
Date: August 25, 2026
Re: Condition Use Permit Request
Application Summary
The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit to establish an outdoor storage facility
within the I-1 Light Manufacturing/Industrial District. The proposed use consists of outdoor storage
spaces for boats, campers, fish houses, trailers, vehicles, and similar equipment within an approximately
180-foot by 120-foot fenced area.
The property was formerly utilized as a feedlot and contained multiple agricultural structures. Several of
the structures had become dilapidated and have since been removed by the applicant. The applicant
proposes to utilize the existing developed portion of the property, including portions of existing concrete
and gravel surfaces, for the storage operation.
Planning Commission Discussion
The Planning Commission reviewed the application at their regular meeting on August 24, 2026.
Discussion generally included the following points:
•

Members agreed the proposed use meets the definition of Open Storage as a Primary Use and is
appropriately reviewed through the Conditional Use Permit process.

•

Members discussed the screening requirements contained in Section 152.384 and generally agreed
that outdoor storage facilities should be screened from surrounding properties.

•

Members discussed the requirement for an 8-foot screening fence and expressed interest in
reviewing potential amendments to the ordinance that would allow 6-foot screening while
maintaining the intent of the ordinance and existing permit requirements.

•

Members generally supported continued screening requirements for outdoor storage facilities while
providing additional flexibility regarding fence height.

Findings of Fact
1. Public Health, Safety, and General Welfare

Staff finds the proposed outdoor storage facility is not expected to be detrimental to public health,
safety, or general welfare. The applicant proposes a fenced and gated facility with keypad access,
security cameras, and site lighting. The facility is intended for the storage of boats, campers, fish houses,
trailers, vehicles, and similar equipment. No hazardous materials, salvage operations, or waste disposal
activities will be allowed.
2. Appearance and Orderly Development
Staff finds the proposal will improve the appearance of the property compared to previous conditions.
The applicant has removed several dilapidated structures associated with the former feedlot operation
and has rehabilitated and painted the remaining structures. The proposed storage area will be
concentrated within a defined area of the site rather than dispersed throughout the property.
3. Impact on Adjacent Property
Staff finds the proposed use is not expected to be substantially injurious to surrounding properties or
unreasonably interfere with the enjoyment of neighboring land uses. The property is located within the I1 Light Manufacturing/Industrial District and the proposed use is a relatively low-intensity storage
operation. Rural residential properties are located south of the site across Fairview Avenue; therefore,
lighting, screening, and site appearance should be considered as part of permit approval.
4. Development of Surrounding Property
Staff finds the proposal should not impede the orderly development of surrounding property. The use is
permitted within the district through the Conditional Use Permit process and represents a lower-intensity
use than many industrial uses allowed within the district. The proposal utilizes an existing developed
area of the property and leaves substantial portions of the site undeveloped.
5. Water and Sewer Facilities
Staff finds water supply and sanitary sewer facilities are not required for the proposed use. No office,
restroom, or occupied commercial structure is proposed as part of the storage facility.
6. Access, Parking, Loading, and Drainage
Staff finds adequate access and circulation are available. The property is served by an existing driveway
from Fairview Avenue. The applicant proposes to utilize existing concrete and gravel areas for
circulation and maneuvering. A large gravel area will accommodate customer waiting, turning
movements, loading, and unloading activities. Existing drainage patterns are expected to remain
substantially unchanged.
7. Traffic and Access Management
Staff finds adequate ingress and egress are provided to minimize traffic congestion. The existing
driveway is approximately 70 feet in width and is capable of accommodating vehicles towing trailers,
boats, campers, and similar equipment. While access will be available 24 hours per day, traffic volumes
are expected to be low and dispersed throughout the day.
8. Comprehensive Plan Consistency
21009 WEST LINCOLN AVE, OLIVIA, MN 56277
T 320-523-2361 U HTTPS://OLIVIA.MN.US/

Staff finds the proposal is generally consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The proposal supports:
•

Goal 1 by reinvesting in a previously developed property.

•

Goal 2 by supporting business development on industrially zoned land.

•

Goal 3 by providing a low-intensity industrial use that is compatible with surrounding industrial,
agricultural, and rural residential land uses.

9. Compliance with Other Applicable Regulations
Staff finds the proposal qualifies as Open Storage as a Primary Use pursuant to §152.383(C). Staff
further notes that open storage screening requirements contained within §152.384 should be considered
by the City Council as part of permit approval. The Planning Commission discussed whether the current
eight-foot screening requirement remains appropriate and expressed support for considering future
amendments to provide flexibility in screening standards while maintaining compatibility with
surrounding properties.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the Conditional Use Permit subject to the following conditions:
1. The facility shall be operated as an outdoor storage facility. Storage of junk, salvage materials,
dismantled vehicles, hazardous materials, or similar nuisance materials shall be prohibited.
2. Any outdoor lighting shall be directed downward and designed to minimize light spillover onto
neighboring properties.
3. The outdoor storage area shall be limited to the proposed fenced area depicted on the site plan.
Expansion of the storage area shall require amendment of the Conditional Use Permit and
approval by the City.
4. The applicant shall comply with the open storage screening requirements of Section 152.384, as
amended, within 365 days of approval of the Conditional Use Permit.

CITY OF OLIVIA
RESOLUTION 2026-88
A RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR OPEN STORAGE AS A
PRIMARY USE ON PROPERTY LOCATED WITHIN THE I-1 LIGHT
MANUFACTURING/INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT
WHEREAS, Keith and Kimberly Mages are the owners of the property located at 2102 Fairview
Ave., Olivia, Minnesota, legally described in Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS, the property is located within the I-1 Light Manufacturing/Industrial District; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to City Code § 152.383(C), Open Storage as a Primary Use may be
allowed as a Conditional Use upon review of the Planning Commission and approval by the City Council;
and
WHEREAS, Keith and Kimberly Mages submitted an application on August 24, 2026, for a
Conditional Use Permit to operate an outdoor storage facility for boats, campers, fish houses, trailers,
vehicles, and similar equipment; and
WHEREAS, notice of a public hearing was provided in accordance with Minnesota Statutes §
462.357 and applicable City Code requirements, and the City Council conducted a public hearing on
September 8, 2026, regarding the proposed Conditional Use Permit; and
FINDINGS OF FACT
Whether the establishment, maintenance or operation will be detrimental to or endanger the public
health, safety or general welfare and is contrary to established standards, regulations or ordinances
of other governmental agencies.
The City Council finds that the proposed outdoor storage facility will not be detrimental to or endanger
the public health, safety, or general welfare. The proposed facility will be gated, secured, monitored by
cameras, and limited to storage uses. Storage of hazardous materials, salvage materials, junk, dismantled
vehicles, and similar nuisance materials will be prohibited.

Whether each structure or improvement is so designed and constructed that it is unsightly,
undesirable, or obnoxious in appearance to the extent that it will hinder the orderly and
harmonious development of the city and of the district wherein proposed.
The City Council finds that the proposal improves the appearance of the property through the removal of
multiple dilapidated structures associated with the former feedlot operation. The storage area will be
concentrated within a defined area of the property, and the remaining structures have been rehabilitated
and painted.
Whether the use will not be substantially injurious to the permitted uses nor unduly restrict the
enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity nor substantially diminish and impair
property values within the area.
The City Council finds that the proposed use is a relatively low-intensity storage use and is not expected
to be substantially injurious to nearby properties. The facility is located within an industrial district and
will generate limited traffic, noise, and activity. Nearby residential properties located south of Fairview
Avenue were considered as part of this review.
Whether the establishment of the use will not impede the orderly and normal development and
improvement of the surrounding property for uses permitted in the zoning district.
The City Council finds that the proposed use will not impede the orderly development of surrounding
property. The use is specifically contemplated as a Conditional Use within the I-1 District and utilizes an
existing developed area of the property.
That adequate water supply and sewage disposal facilities are provided and in accordance with
applicable standards.
The City Council finds that water supply and sanitary sewer facilities are not necessary to serve the
proposed outdoor storage use as proposed, as no occupied structures, office space, or restroom facilities
are proposed.
Whether adequate access roads, on-site parking, on-site loading and unloading berths and drainage
have been or will be provided.
The City Council finds that adequate access, maneuvering space, loading and unloading areas, and
drainage exist or will be provided as necessary to serve the proposed use in compliance with applicable
City requirements. The site contains existing gravel and concrete areas suitable for vehicle circulation and
storage operations.
Whether adequate measures have been taken to provide ingress and egress so as to minimize traffic
congestion on public roads.
The City Council finds that adequate ingress and egress are available through the existing driveway
connection to Fairview Avenue. Traffic associated with the use is expected to be limited and dispersed.
Whether the use will not be in major conflict with the Comprehensive Plan.

The City Council finds that the proposal supports Comprehensive Plan goals related to business
development, reinvestment in underutilized property, and productive use of industrially zoned land. The
proposal reuses a previously developed site and returns the property to productive use.
Whether the use will conform to all other applicable regulations as required in this chapter.
The City Council finds that the proposed use qualifies as Open Storage as a Primary Use pursuant to §
152.383(C) and will conform to applicable zoning and development regulations subject to the conditions
contained herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Olivia, Minnesota,
hereby approves and authorizes issuance of a Conditional Use Permit for Open Storage as a Primary Use
for the property legally described in Exhibit A, subject to the following conditions:
1. The facility shall be operated as an outdoor storage facility for boats, campers, fish houses,
trailers, vehicles, and similar recreational or personal property. Storage of junk, salvage materials,
dismantled or inoperable vehicles, hazardous materials, or similar nuisance materials shall be
prohibited.
2. The outdoor storage area shall be limited to the approved fenced area depicted on the site plan.
Expansion of the outdoor storage area beyond the approved fenced area shall require prior
approval of an amendment to this Conditional Use Permit by the City Council.
3. The facility shall be developed and operated substantially in accordance with the approved
application materials, site plan, and conditions of this Conditional Use Permit.
4. Any outdoor lighting shall be directed downward and designed to minimize light spillover onto
neighboring properties.
5. All required permits and approvals, including any applicable fence permits, sign permits, building
permits, or other required permits, shall be obtained prior to construction, installation, or
expansion of applicable site improvements.
6. The applicant shall bring the property into compliance with the screening requirements of City
Code § 152.384 within one (1) year following approval of this Conditional Use Permit, unless an
extension is approved by the City Council.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Olivia, Minnesota, this 8th day of September, 2026.

§ 93.05 IMPOUNDING.

(A) Running at large. Any dog, cat, non-domestic animal kept under § 93.03, or farm animal kept
under § 93.04, running at large, is hereby declared a public nuisance. Any Animal Control Officer or
police officer may impound any such animal and shall give notice of the impounding to the owner of
animal, if known. The Animal Control Officer or police officer shall not enter the property of the owner
of an animal found running at large unless the officer has first obtained the permission of the owner to do
so or has obtained a warrant issued by a court of competent jurisdiction to search for and seize the animal.
In case the owner is unknown, the officer shall post notice at the city office that if the dog, cat, or other
animal is not claimed within the time specified in division (C) of this section, it will be sold or otherwise
disposed of. Except as otherwise provided in this section, it shall be unlawful to kill, destroy, or otherwise

animal may be released at the end of the time if healthy and free from symptoms of rabies, and by the
payment of all costs by the owner. However, if the owner of the animal shall elect immediately upon
receipt of notice of need for the confinement by the officer to voluntarily and immediately confine the
animal for the required period of time in a veterinary hospital of the owner's choosing, not outside of the
county in which this city is located, and provide immediate proof of confinement in the manner as may be
required, the owner may do so. If, however, the animal has been inoculated with a live modified rabies
vaccine and the owner has proof of the vaccination by a certificate from a licensed veterinarian, the owner
may confine the dog, cat, or other animal to the owner's property.
(C) Reclaiming. For the purposes of this section, regular business day means a day when the facility
holding the animal is open to the public for at least four consecutive hours between 8:00 a.m. and 7:00
p.m. All animals conveyed to the pound shall be kept, with humane treatment and sufficient food and
water for their comfort, at least five regular business days, unless the animal is a dangerous animal as
defined under §§ 93.11 or 93.12, in which case it shall be kept for seven regular business days or the
times specified in §§ 93.11 or 93.12, as applicable, and except if the animal is a cruelly-treated animal in
which case it shall be kept for ten regular business days, unless sooner reclaimed by their owners or
keepers as provided by this section. An animal may be reclaimed earlier by its owner or keeper as provided
in this section. To reclaim an animal, the owner or keeper must meet the following requirements, unless
otherwise provided by this code or City Council resolution:
(1) Payment of the release fee, as established in the fine and fee schedule, and receipt of a
Written Release from the police;

to enforce this section may dispose of the unclaimed animal in a manner permitted by law. Any money
collected under this section shall be payable to the City Clerk.
Penalty, see § 93.99
§ 93.06 [Reserved.]
§ 93.07 NUISANCES.

(A) Habitual barking. It shall be unlawful for any person to keep or harbor a dog which habitually
barks or cries. Habitual barking shall be defined as barking for repeated intervals of at least five minutes
with less than one minute of interruption. The barking must also be audible off of the owner's or caretaker's
premises.
(B) Damage to property. It shall be unlawful for any person's dog or other animal to damage any
lawn, garden, or other property, whether or not the owner has knowledge of the damage.

animal shall be responsible for cleaning up any feces of the animal and disposing of the feces in a sanitary
manner whether on their own property, on the property of others or on public property.
(D) Warrant required. The Animal Control Officer or police officer shall not enter the property of
the owner of an animal described in this section unless the officer has first obtained the permission of the
owner to do so or has obtained a warrant issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, to search for and
seize the animal.
§ 93.08 SEIZURE OF ANIMALS.
Unless any police officer or Animal Control Officer is witnessing an attack by an animal upon a
person or another animal, the Animal Control Officer or police officer shall not enter the property of the
owner of an animal described in this section unless the officer has first obtained the permission of the
owner to do so or has obtained a warrant issued by a court of competent jurisdiction to search for and seize
the animal. Any police officer or Animal Control Officer with consent to enter or a warrant may enter and
seize the animal, provided the following circumstances exist:

(A) There is an identified complainant other than the police officer or Animal Control Officer

making a contemporaneous complaint about the animal;

(B) The officer reasonably believes that the animal meets the barking dog criteria set out in §
93.07(A); has been subjected to cruelty or torture as set out in M.S. § 343.20, subd. 3; or meets the criteria
for an at large animal set out in § 93.02 or § 93.05(A);
(C) The officer can demonstrate that there has been at least one previous complaint of a barking dog;
inhumane treatment of the animal; noncompliance with requirements associated with a previous
designation of the dog as potentially dangerous or dangerous; or proof that the animal at this address was
at large on a prior date.
If personal contact with the owner of the animal is not possible, then written notice of the seizure
must be left in a conspicuous place.
Notwithstanding the above, any police officer or Animal Control Officer witnessing an attack by an
animal upon a person or another animal may take whatever means the officer deems appropriate to bring
the attack to an end and prevent further injury to the victim.
§ 93.09 ANIMALS PRESENTING A DANGER TO HEALTH AND SAFETY OF CITY.
If, in the reasonable belief of the Animal Control Officer or police officer, an animal presents an
immediate danger to the health and safety of any person, or the animal is threatening imminent harm to
any person, or the animal is in the process of attacking any person, the person in harm’s way or the officer
may destroy the animal in a proper and humane manner whether or not the animal is on the property of its
owner. Otherwise, the person or officer may apprehend the animal and deliver it to the pound for
confinement under § 93.05. If the animal is destroyed, the owner or keeper of the animal destroyed shall
be liable to the city for the cost of maintaining and disposing of the animal, plus the costs of any
veterinarian examination. If the animal is found not to be a danger to the health and safety of the city, it
may be released to the owner or keeper in accordance with § 93.05(C).

of a dangerous dog if the owner presents sufficient evidence that:
(a)

There is a proper enclosure;

(b) Written proof that there is a surety bond by a surety company authorized to conduct

business in Minnesota in the sum of at least $300,000, payable to any person injured by a dangerous dog,

property, an owner of a dangerous or potentially dangerous dog must keep it in a proper enclosure. Inside
a residential home, there must be a secured area maintained where the dog will stay when persons other
than family members are present. If the dog is outside the proper enclosure, the dog must be muzzled and
restrained by a substantial chain or leash no longer than four feet and under the physical restraint of an
adult. The muzzle must be made in a manner that will prevent the dog from biting any person or animal
but that will not cause injury to the dog or interfere with its vision or respiration.

(F) Notification requirements to city.
(1) Relocation or death. The owner of a dog that has been declared dangerous or potentially
dangerous must notify the City Clerk in writing if the dog is to be relocated from its current address or if
the dog has died. The notification must be given in writing within 30 days of the relocation or death. The
notification must include the current owner's name and address, and the new owner's name and the
relocation address. If the relocation address is outside of the city, the city may notify the local law
enforcement agency of the transfer of the dog into its jurisdiction.
(2) Renter's obligations. A person who owns or possess a dangerous or potentially dangerous
dog and who will rent property from another where the dog will reside must disclose to the property owner
prior to entering the lease agreement and at the time of any lease renewal periods that the person owns or
possesses a dangerous or potentially dangerous dog that will reside at the property. A dog owner, who is
currently renting property, must notify the property owner within 14 days of city notification if the owned
dog is newly declared as dangerous or potentially dangerous and the owner keeps the dog on the property.

(3) Transfer of ownership into the city. No dog that has been previously determined to be
dangerous or potentially dangerous by another jurisdiction shall be kept, owned or harbored in the city
unless the dog's owner complies with the requirements of this section prior to bringing the dog into the
city. Dogs in violation of this division are subject to impoundment and destruction.
(G) Seizure. Animal control may immediately seize any dangerous or potentially dangerous dog if:
(1) After 14 days after the owner has notice that the dog is declared dangerous or potentially
dangerous, the dog is not validly registered and no appeal has been filed;
(2) After 14 days after the owner has notice that the dog is dangerous, the owner does not
secure the proper liability insurance or surety coverage as required or such required insurance is cancelled;
(3) The dog is not maintained in a proper enclosure;
93.11(E);

(4) The dog is outside the proper enclosure and not under proper restraint, as required by §

(5) After 30 days after the owner has notice that the dog is dangerous, the dog is not sterilized,
as required by § 93.11(D)(1)(e); or
(6) The dog's microchip has been removed.
(H) Reclamation. A dog seized under § 93.11(G) may be reclaimed by the owner of the dog upon
payment of maintenance costs, and presenting proof to animal control that the requirements of this section
have been met. If within seven days, a dog is not either reclaimed under this division or the owner has not
posted the required security, the City may dispose of the dog pursuant to this section and after proper
notice and hearing, and the owner will be liable to the city for maintenance costs. A person claiming an
interest in a seized dog may prevent disposition of the dog by posting a security in an amount sufficient to
provide for the dog's maintenance costs. As noted above, the security must be posted with the city within
seven days of the seizure inclusive of the date seized.
(I) Subsequent offenses: seizure. If a person has been convicted of violating a provision of this
section, and the person is charged with a subsequent violation relating to the same dog, the dog may be
seized. If the owner is convicted of the crime for which the dog was seized, the court may order that the
dog be destroyed in a proper and humane manner and the owner pay the maintenance costs. If the owner
is not convicted and the dog is not reclaimed by the owner within seven days after the owner has been
notified that the dog may be reclaimed, the dog may be disposed of in manner permitted by law.
(J) Notice, hearings.
(1) Notice. After a dog has been declared dangerous or potentially dangerous or has been seized
for destruction, the city shall give notice by delivering or mailing it to the owner of the dog, or by posting
a copy of it at the place where the dog is kept, or by delivering it to a person residing on the property, and
telephoning, if possible. The notice shall include:
(a) A description of the seized dog; the authority for and purpose of the declaration and
seizure; the time, place, and circumstances under which the dog was declared; and the telephone number
and contact person where the dog is kept, if known to the City;

(b) A statement that the owner of the dog may request a hearing concerning the declaration

and that failure to do so within 14 days of the date of the notice will terminate the owner's right to a hearing;

(c) A statement that if an appeal request is made within 14 days of the notice, the owner
must immediately comply with the requirements of M.S. § 347.52, paragraphs (a) and (c) regarding proper
enclosures and notification to the city upon transfer or death of the dog, until such time as the hearing
officer issues an opinion;
(d) A statement that if the hearing officer affirms the dangerous dog declaration, the owner
will have 14 days from receipt of that decision to comply with all other requirements of M.S. § 347.51,
347.515, and 347.52;
(e)

A form to request a hearing; and

(f) A statement that if the dog has been seized, all maintenance costs of the care, keeping,
and disposition of the dog pending the outcome of the hearing are the responsibility of the owner, unless a
court or hearing officer finds that the seizure or impoundment was not reasonably justified by law.
(2) Right to hearing.
(a) After a dog has been declared dangerous, potentially dangerous or has been seized for
destruction, the owner may appeal in writing to the city within 14 days after notice of the declaration or
seizure. Failure to do so within 14 days of the date of the notice will terminate the owner's right to a hearing.
The owner must, prior to the hearing, pay a fee for an appeal hearing as established in the fine and fee
schedule.

decision shall be delivered to the dog's owner by hand delivery or registered mail as soon as practical and
a copy shall be provided to the city. The decision of the hearing officer is final.
(d) The hearing officer is authorized to order the destruction of the dog upon a finding that
the dog has been declared dangerous, the owner’s right to appeal hereunder has been exhausted or expired,
and the owner has failed to comply with the provisions of M.S. §§ 347.50 through 347.565 and the

(K) Destruction of certain dogs. The Police Chief and/or hearing officer are authorized to order the
destruction or other disposition of any dog, after proper notice and, if requested, hearing, is given pursuant

(3) If any member of a household is prohibited from owning a dog in § 93.11(M)(1) or (2),
unless specifically approved with or without restrictions by the city, no person in the household is
permitted to own a dog.
(N) Dog ownership prohibition review. Beginning three years after a conviction under §
93.11(M)(1) that prohibits a person from owning a dog, and annually thereafter, the person may request
in writing to the Police Chief that the city review the prohibition. The city may consider such facts as the
seriousness of the violation or violations that led to the prohibition, any criminal convictions, or other
facts that the city deems appropriate. The city may rescind the prohibition entirely or rescind it with
limitations. The city also may establish conditions a person must meet before the prohibition is rescinded,
including, but not limited to, successfully completing dog training or dog handling courses. If the city
rescinds a person's prohibition and the person subsequently fails to comply with any limitations imposed
by the city or the person is convicted of any animal violation involving unprovoked bites or dog attacks,

the city may permanently prohibit the person from owning a dog in this state.
§ 93.12 DANGEROUS ANIMALS (EXCLUDING DOGS).

(A) Attack by an animal. It shall be unlawful for any person's animal to inflict or attempt to inflict
bodily injury to any person or other animal whether or not the owner is present. This section shall not

(b) Engaged in any attack on any person under circumstances which would indicate
danger to personal safety;
(c) Exhibited unusually aggressive behavior, such as an attack on another animal;
(d) Bitten one or more persons on two or more occasions; or

(c) Has engaged in unprovoked attacks causing injury or otherwise threatening the safety
of humans or domestic animals.
(3) PROPER ENCLOSURE. Securely confined indoors or in a securely locked pen or
structure suitable to prevent the animal from escaping and to provide protection for the animal from the
elements. A proper enclosure does not include a porch, patio, or any part of a house, garage, or other
structure that would allow the animal to exit of its own volition, or any house or structure in which
windows are open or in which door or window screens are the only barriers which prevent the animal from
exiting. The enclosure shall not allow the egress of the animal in any manner without human assistance.
A pen or kennel shall meet the following minimum specifications:
(a) Have a minimum overall floor size of 32 square feet.

(b) Sidewalls shall have a minimum height of five feet and be constructed of 11-gauge or
heavier wire. Openings in the wire shall not exceed two inches, support posts shall be 1¼-inch or larger
steel pipe buried in the ground 18 inches or more. When a concrete floor is not provided, the sidewalls
shall be buried a minimum of 18 inches in the ground.

of the same gauge wire or heavier as the sidewalls and shall also have no openings in the wire greater than
two inches.

(d) An entrance/exit gate shall be provided and be constructed of the same material as the
sidewalls and shall also have no openings in the wire greater than two inches. The gate shall be equipped
with a device capable of being locked and shall be locked at all times when the animal is in the pen or
kennel.
(4) UNPROVOKED. The condition in which the animal is not purposely excited, stimulated,
agitated or disturbed.
(D) Designation as potentially dangerous animal. A police officer, community service officer,
Animal Control Officer or other authorized city employee may designate any animal as a potentially
dangerous animal upon receiving evidence that the potentially dangerous animal has, when unprovoked,
then bitten, attacked, or threatened the safety of a person or a domestic animal as stated in division (C)(2).
When an animal is declared potentially dangerous, the Animal Control Officer shall cause one owner of
the potentially dangerous animal to be notified in writing that the animal is potentially dangerous.
(E) Designation as dangerous animal. A police officer, community service officer, Animal Control
Officer or other authorized city employee shall have the authority to designate any animal as a dangerous
animal upon receiving evidence of the following:
(1) That the animal has, when unprovoked, bitten, attacked, or threatened the safety of a person
or domestic animal as stated in division (C)(1).
(2) That the animal has been declared potentially dangerous and the animal has then bitten,

attacked, or threatened the safety of a person or domestic animal as stated in division (C)(1).

(F) Authority to order destruction. The Animal Control Officer, upon a finding that an animal is
dangerous hereunder, is authorized to order, as part of the disposition of the case, that the animal be
destroyed based on a written order containing one or more of the following findings of fact:
(1) The animal is dangerous as demonstrated by a vicious attack, an unprovoked attack, an
attack without warning or multiple attacks; or
(2) The owner of the animal has demonstrated an inability or unwillingness to control the
animal in order to prevent injury to persons or other animals.
(G) Procedure. The Animal Control Officer, after a determination that an animal is dangerous, may
proceed in the following manner: The Animal Control Officer shall cause one owner of the animal to be
notified in writing or in person that the animal is dangerous and may order the animal seized or make
orders as deemed proper. This owner shall be notified as to dates, times, places and parties bitten, and
shall be given 14 days to appeal this order by requesting a hearing before the City Council for a review of
this determination.

(1) If no appeal is filed, the Animal Control Officer shall obtain an order or warrant authorizing

the seizure and the destruction of the animal from a court of competent jurisdiction, unless the animal is
already in custody or the owner consents to the seizure and destruction of the animal.

(2) If an owner requests a hearing for determination as to the dangerous nature of the animal,

the hearing shall be held before the City Council, which shall set a date for hearing not more than three
weeks after demand for the hearing. The records of the Animal Control Officer or City Clerk’s office shall
be admissible for consideration without further foundation. After considering all evidence pertaining to
the temperament of the animal, the City Council shall make an order as it deems proper. The City Council
may order that the Animal Control Officer take the animal into custody for destruction, if the animal is
not currently in custody. If the animal is ordered into custody for destruction, the owner shall immediately
make the animal available to the Animal Control Officer. If the owner does not immediately make the
animal available, the Animal Control Officer shall obtain an order or warrant authorizing the seizure and
the destruction of the animal from a court of competent jurisdiction.

(3) No person shall harbor an animal after it has been found to be dangerous and ordered into

custody for destruction.

(H) Stopping an attack. If any police officer or Animal Control Officer is witness to an attack by an
animal upon a person or another animal, the officer may take whatever means the officer deems
appropriate to bring the attack to an end and prevent further injury to the victim.
(I) Notification of new address. The owner of an animal which has been identified as dangerous or
potentially dangerous shall notify the Animal Control Officer in writing if the animal is to be relocated
from its current address or given or sold to another person. The notification shall be given in writing at
least 14 days prior to the relocation or transfer of ownership. The notification shall include the current
owner's name and address, the relocation address, and the name of the new owner, if any.
(J) Dangerous animal requirements.
(1) Requirements. If the City Council does not order the destruction of an animal that has been
declared dangerous, the City Council may, as an alternative, order any or all of the following:
(a) That the owner provide and maintain a proper enclosure for the dangerous animal as
specified in § 93.12(C)(3);
(b) Post the front and the rear of the premises with clearly visible warning signs, including
a warning symbol to inform children, that there is a dangerous animal on the property;
of $300,000;

(c) Provide and show proof annually of public liability insurance in the minimum amount

(d) If the animal is outside the proper enclosure, the animal must be muzzled (if physically
possible depending on the type of animal) and restrained by a substantial chain or leash (not to exceed six
feet in length) and under the physical restraint of a person 16 years of age or older. The muzzle must be
of a design as to prevent the animal from biting any person or animal, but will not cause injury to the
animal or interfere with its vision or respiration;
(e) The animal shall have a microchip implant meeting the specifications of and in

accordance with the procedures for microchip implants for dogs provided by M.S. § 347.515, as it may be
amended from time to time;

(f) All animals deemed dangerous under this section shall be registered with the city
within 14 days after the date the animal was so deemed.
(g) If the animal is a cat or ferret, it must be up to date with rabies vaccination.
(2) Seizure. In the same manner for seizing dangerous dogs authorized by M.S. § 347.54, as it
may be amended from time to time, the Animal Control Officer shall immediately seize any dangerous
animal if the owner does not meet each of the above requirements within 14 days after the date notice is
sent to the owner that the animal is dangerous. Seizure may be appealed to district court by serving a
summons and petition upon the city and filing it with the district court.
(3) Reclaiming animals. A dangerous animal seized under § 93.12(J)(2) may be reclaimed by
the owner of the animal upon payment of impounding and boarding fees and presenting proof to animal
control that each of the requirements under § 93.12(J)(1), is fulfilled. An animal not reclaimed under this
section within 14 days may be disposed of as provided under § 93.12(F), and the owner is liable to the city
for costs incurred in confining and impounding the animal.
(K) Subsequent offenses. If an owner of an animal has subsequently violated the provisions under §
93.12 with the same animal, the animal must be seized by animal control. The owner may request a hearing
as defined in § 93.12(G). If the owner is found to have violated the provisions for which the animal was
seized, the Animal Control Officer shall order the animal destroyed in a proper and humane manner and
the owner shall pay the costs of confining the animal. If the person is found not to have violated the
provisions for which the animal was seized, the owner may reclaim the animal under the provisions of §
93.12(J)(3). If the animal is not yet reclaimed by the owner within 14 days after the date the owner is
notified that the animal may be reclaimed, the animal may be disposed of as provided under § 93.12(F)
and the owner is liable to the animal control for the costs incurred in confining, impounding and disposing
of the animal.
§ 93.13 [Reserved.]
§ 93.14 INTERFERENCE WITH OFFICERS.
No person shall in any manner molest, hinder, or interfere with any person authorized by the City
Council to capture dogs, cats, or other animals and convey them to the pound while engaged in that
operation. Nor shall any unauthorized person break open the pound, or attempt to do so, or take or attempt
to take from any agent any animal taken up by him or her in compliance with this chapter, or in any other
manner interfere with or hinder the officer in the discharge of his or her duties under this chapter.
§ 93.15 FEEDING STRAY CATS AND DOGS.
(A) Definitions.
(1) FEED or FEEDING means the placing of dog or cat food, or similar food products or
consumable materials attractive to dogs and cats, which may result in dogs or cats

congregating thereon on a regular basis, placed on the ground, in an obviously intended feeder,
or in a feeder at a height accessible to cats and dogs.
(2) STRAY means a domestic or feral dog or cat running at large and unaccompanied or controlled
by an owner.
(B) Policy and purpose. High populations of stray dogs and cats pose a hazard to human health and
safety, as such animals provide a fruitful breeding ground for infectious disease, including but not
limited to rabies and distemper, and may otherwise bite or attack humans and domestic animals.
In addition, food provided for stray animals is often attractive to wild animals such as raccoons
and rodents and may create nuisance conditions such as a rat harborage or other wild animal
infestation.
(C) No person shall feed or allow the feeding of any stray cat or dog within the city.
(D) Exceptions. Veterinarians and persons who, acting within the scope of their employment with any
governmental entity, non-profit, or humane society, have custody of or manage stray dogs and
cats are not subject to the prohibitions of this section.
§ 93.99 PENALTY.

(A) Separate offenses. Each day a violation of this chapter is committed or permitted to continue
shall constitute a separate offense and shall be punishable under this section.
(B) Misdemeanor. Violation of this chapter by any person, whether owner, caretaker, or person in
possession of an animal, shall constitute a misdemeanor punishable as provided in § 10.99.
SECTION 3. EFFECTIVE DATE.
This ordinance shall take effect and be in full force following its passage and publication in accordance
with Minnesota law.
Passed and adopted by the City Council of the City of Olivia this 21st day of September, 2026.

Small-Intermediate Airport Hangar Fees
The University of Minnesota Air Technical Assistance Program (AirTAP) conducted a rates and
charges survey in 2023. In gathering informa�on for a poten�al update of the hangar fees for
the Olivia Regional Airport, I have conducted brief interviews with similarly sized, rural
Minnesota airports using the informa�on from this survey. The annual opera�ons and based
aircra� numbers have changed slightly since 2023; however, no changes have been made that
significantly impacted the size of the airport or the number of aircra� based there. According to
the aforemen�oned survey:

Open Gym visitors were most engaged with program ac�vi�es from late May to mid-July. Past
that, many of the visitors who atended Open Gym were recurring visitors who had already
par�cipated in those ac�vi�es. When this occurred, I pivoted the schedule away from the
planned ac�vi�es towards those that I knew would most interest the visitors.
Almost all of the 105 unique visitors first arrived in May or June.
Wednesday was the least busy day of the week for both Cornland and Open Gym.
Open Gym and Cornland had nearly iden�cal sta�s�cs in atendance, except for Fridays, where
Cornland had nearly twice the atendance as Open Gym.
Nearly all Open Gym visitors were in the 6-18 age range
Slime making was the most popular scheduled ac�vity
Average arrival �me was 10:09 AM, Average exit �me was 11:43 AM

Research Update:

Olivia, MN GO Debt Rating Affirmed At 'A+'; Outlook
Stable
August 18, 2026

Overview

Primary Contact

• S&P Global Ratings affirmed its ‘A+’ long-term rating on the City of Olivia, Minnesota’s general
obligation (GO) debt outstanding.

San Francisco

• The outlook is stable.

Virginia A Murillo

Rationale

Secondary Contact

The city’s credit profile is supported by stable operations and sufficient reserves for the rating
level. We expect reserves to remain at similar levels over the two-year outlook, as there are no
material plans to draw upon them. The fiscal 2026 budget (year-end Dec 31) is structured with a
planned $58,000 use of the general fund balance (negative 2% of operations) for capital.
Management noted the 2026 budget is on track, with no major deviations to date. The fiscal 2027
budget is under development, and the city has reported no major anticipated pressures or
budget gaps. We expect stable financial performance in the outlook given management’s diligent
monitoring. Budgetary stability is further bolstered by reliance on state aid and property tax
revenue, which was composed of 44% and 46% of revenue, respectively, in fiscal 2025. Like state
peers, the city can effectively match revenues and expenditures because property taxes are not
subject to levy limits. While the unassigned fund balance is slightly below the formal policy
requirement of 40% of upcoming operating expenditures, the city maintains additional reserves
in its liquor fund that brings available reserves to$1.37 million, or 56% of revenue in 2025.

The city has a high debt burden relative to its tax base. However, support from utility revenue,
special assessments, and sales tax revenue provides additional support for debt repayment, and
we calculate net direct debt per capita at $3,931. In 2027, the city plans to issue about $1.0
million-$1.2 million in new debt for a wastewater project, though we do not believe this will
materially weaken its debt profile. Economic growth prospects are limited as the local economy
remains heavily concentrated in the volatile agricultural sector and the city has experienced a 4%
population loss in the past 10 years.
Although Olivia is more exposed to drought risks compared with state and national peers when
considering S&P Global Ratings’ physical risk dataset, we believe the city has partially mitigated
risks through comprehensive mitigation practices in collaboration with Renville County.

Olivia, MN GO Debt Rating Affirmed At 'A+'; Outlook Stable

Security: The bonds are secured by the city's unlimited-tax GO pledge. Olivia also pledges water,
sewer, and storm sewer revenues from its utilities although our rating reflects the city's GO
pledge because we lack the necessary information to assess the credit quality of the utility
pledge.

Outlook
The stable outlook reflects our view that Olivia will maintain a structurally balanced budget, and
maintain reserves at historically similar levels.

Downside scenario
We could lower the rating if the city’s debt burden grows further and pressures operations, or if
financial performance deteriorates, leading to a material decrease in reserves to levels that are
no longer comparable with those of peers.

Upside scenario
We could raise the rating if Olivia’s economic base expands and diversifies, all other factors
remaining equal or improved.

The ratings appearing below the new issues represent an aggregation of debt issues (ASID) associated with related maturities. The maturities similarly reflect our
opinion about the creditworthiness of the U.S. Public Finance obligor's legal pledge for payment of the financial obligation. Nevertheless, these maturities may have
different credit ratings than the rating presented next to the ASID depending on whether or not additional legal pledge(s) support the specific maturity's payment
obligation, such as credit enhancement, as a result of defeasance, or other factors.

Certain terms used in this report, particularly certain adjectives used to express our view on rating relevant factors, have specific meanings ascribed to them in
our criteria, and should therefore be read in conjunction with such criteria. Please see Ratings Criteria at
https://disclosure.spglobal.com/ratings/en/regulatory/ratings-criteria for further information. A description of each of S&P Global Ratings' rating categories is
contained in "S&P Global Ratings Definitions" at https://disclosure.spglobal.com/ratings/en/regulatory/article/-/view/sourceId/504352. Complete ratings
information is available to RatingsDirect subscribers at www.capitaliq.com. All ratings referenced herein can be found on S&P Global Ratings' public website at

This letter constitutes S&P Global Ratings' permission for you to disseminate the above-assigned

permission for such dissemination (other than to professional advisors bound by appropriate
confidentiality arrangements or to allow the Issuer to comply with its regulatory obligations) will
become effective only after we have released the ratings on standardandpoors.com. Any
dissemination on any Website by you or your agents shall include the full analysis for the rating,
including any updates, where applicable. Any such dissemination shall not be done in a manner
that would serve as a substitute for any products and services containing S&P Global Ratings'
intellectual property for which a fee is charged.
To maintain the rating, S&P Global Ratings must receive all relevant financial and other
information, including notice of material changes to financial and other information provided to
us and in relevant documents, as soon as such information is available. Relevant financial and
other information includes, but is not limited to, information about direct bank loans and debt and
debt-like instruments issued to, or entered into with, financial institutions, insurance companies
and/or other entities, whether or not disclosure of such information would be required under S.E.
C. Rule 15c2-12. You understand that S&P Global Ratings relies on you and your agents and
advisors for the accuracy, timeliness and completeness of the information submitted in
connection with the rating and the continued flow of material information as part of the

S&P Global Ratings
Terms and Conditions Applicable To Public Finance Credit Ratings
General. The credit ratings and other views of S&P Global Ratings are statements of opinion and
not statements of fact. Credit ratings and other views of S&P Global Ratings are not
recommendations to purchase, hold, or sell any securities and do not comment on market price,
marketability, investor preference or suitability of any security. While S&P Global Ratings bases
its credit ratings and other views on information provided by issuers and their agents and
advisors, and other information from sources it believes to be reliable, S&P Global Ratings does
not perform an audit, and undertakes no duty of due diligence or independent verification, of any
information it receives. Such information and S&P Global Ratings' opinions should not be relied
upon in making any investment decision. S&P Global Ratings does not act as a "fiduciary" or an
investment advisor. S&P Global Ratings neither recommends nor will recommend how an issuer
can or should achieve a particular credit rating outcome nor provides or will provide consulting,
advisory, financial or structuring advice. Unless otherwise indicated, the term "issuer" means
both the issuer and the obligor if the obligor is not the issuer.
All Credit Rating Actions in S&P Global Ratings' Sole Discretion. S&P Global Ratings may
assign, raise, lower, suspend, place on CreditWatch, or withdraw a credit rating, and assign or
revise an Outlook, at any time, in S&P Global Ratings' sole discretion. S&P Global Ratings may
take any of the foregoing actions notwithstanding any request for a confidential or private credit
rating or a withdrawal of a credit rating, or termination of a credit rating engagement. S&P
Global Ratings will not convert a public credit rating to a confidential or private credit rating, or a
private credit rating to a confidential credit rating.
Publication. S&P Global Ratings reserves the right to use, publish, disseminate, or license others
to use, publish or disseminate a credit rating and any related analytical reports, including the
rationale for the credit rating, unless the issuer specifically requests in connection with the initial
credit rating that the credit rating be assigned and maintained on a confidential or private basis.
If, however, a confidential or private credit rating or the existence of a confidential or private
credit rating subsequently becomes public through disclosure other than by an act of S&P Global
Ratings or its affiliates, S&P Global Ratings reserves the right to treat the credit rating as a public
credit rating, including, without limitation, publishing the credit rating and any related analytical
reports. Any analytical reports published by S&P Global Ratings are not issued by or on behalf of
the issuer or at the issuer's request. S&P Global Ratings reserves the right to use, publish,
disseminate or license others to use, publish or disseminate analytical reports with respect to
public credit ratings that have been withdrawn, regardless of the reason for such withdrawal. S&P
Global Ratings may publish explanations of S&P Global Ratings' credit ratings criteria from time
to time and S&P Global Ratings may modify or refine its credit ratings criteria at any time as
S&P Global Ratings deems appropriate.
Reliance on Information. S&P Global Ratings relies on issuers and their agents and advisors for
the accuracy and completeness of the information submitted in connection with credit ratings and
the surveillance of credit ratings including, without limitation, information on material changes to
information previously provided by issuers, their agents or advisors. Credit ratings, and the
maintenance of credit ratings, may be affected by S&P Global Ratings' opinion of the information
received from issuers, their agents or advisors.
Confidential Information. S&P Global Ratings has established policies and procedures to
maintain the confidentiality of certain non-public information received from issuers, their agents
or advisors. For these purposes, "Confidential Information" shall mean verbal or written

PF Ratings U.S. (4/28/16)

information that the issuer or its agents or advisors have provided to S&P Global Ratings and, in
a specific and particularized manner, have marked or otherwise indicated in writing (either prior
to or promptly following such disclosure) that such information is "Confidential."
S&P Global Ratings Not an Expert, Underwriter or Seller under Securities Laws. S&P Global
Ratings has not consented to and will not consent to being named an "expert" or any similar
designation under any applicable securities laws or other regulatory guidance, rules or
recommendations, including without limitation, Section 7 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933.
S&P Global Ratings has not performed and will not perform the role or tasks associated with an
"underwriter" or "seller" under the United States federal securities laws or other regulatory
guidance, rules or recommendations in connection with a credit rating engagement.
Disclaimer of Liability. S&P Global Ratings does not and cannot guarantee the accuracy,
completeness, or timeliness of the information relied on in connection with a credit rating or the
results obtained from the use of such information. S&P GLOBAL RATINGS GIVES NO
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
OR USE. S&P Global Ratings, its affiliates or third party providers, or any of their officers,
directors, shareholders, employees or agents shall not be liable to any person for any
inaccuracies, errors, or omissions, in each case regardless of cause, actions, damages
(consequential, special, indirect, incidental, punitive, compensatory, exemplary or otherwise),
claims, liabilities, costs, expenses, legal fees or losses (including, without limitation, lost income
or lost profits and opportunity costs) in any way arising out of or relating to a credit rating or the
related analytic services even if advised of the possibility of such damages or other amounts.
No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in any credit rating engagement, or a credit rating when
issued, is intended or should be construed as creating any rights on behalf of any third parties,
including, without limitation, any recipient of a credit rating. No person is intended as a third
party beneficiary of any credit rating engagement or of a credit rating when issued.
