Mayor Gehrz called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. The minutes of the February 28, 2007 City Council meeting were approved as submitted. Consent Agenda: Mayor Gehrz asked the Council’s approval to add an addendum item, number 4. There were no disapprovals. 1. General Disbursements through 3/22/07: $57,404.29 Payroll through 3/15/07: $15,739.88 2. 2007 Licenses 3. Purchase of Upgraded Video System for Council Chambers 4. Appointment of Paul Faust to the Parks and Recreation Commission Council member Kuettel asked about the expenditure to Ramsey County. Administrator Miller replied the expenditure was paid once, but Roland allocates them to each enterprise fund. Council member Talbot asked about the snowplowing expenditures for 06/07. Administrator Miller said the City was okay on 2006, but the City should hope for light snow in November/December of 2007 because of the expenditures in the earlier part of this year. Policy Agenda: 1. Approval of Joint Grant Application – Non-Motorized Transportation Pilot Program Administrator Miller began the item with an overview of the pilot program. In 2005, he explained, Congress, as part of the six-year federal transportation program, established the Non-Motorized Transportation Pilot Program (NTP). He said the law provides $21.5 million to four communities nationwide to evaluate how investments in planning, infrastructure, and public education can increase rates of bicycling and walking and reduce driving. Four pilot communities were selected, and the Minneapolis area has received $7.3 million. He explained that Lauderdale invited Falcon Heights to the table, and the Cities, together with Roseville, proposed a plan for new pedestrian facilities. He said an off-street pedestrian pathway would be proposed for Fairview, where now is a paved shoulder. Larpenteur and Gortner would also be involved, with a final tie-in to transit to Rosedale. He said there is not a specific way to include Lauderdale, but they are happy with this plan, and that Falcon Heights chances are high. Council member Kuettel asked if there are matching funds. Administrator Miller said there are not, and that if the entire amount of $1.25 million is not awarded for the project, the cities will be required to re-evaluate the plan. He added that the City will find out late in 2007, and will need to spend the funds by the end of 2009. Council member Harris asked about the inter-campus transit way. Administrator Miller explained it is a transit way for buses and pedestrians that connects the two campuses. 2 Mayor Gehrz stated that since Lauderdale is not connected specifically to that City, it is still a benefit to them. Administrator Miller stated the City agreed to write a letter of support for the project. Mayor Gehrz added the Active Living Ramsey County (ALRC) group also met with the Sierra Group in order to make more connections across Hwy 36, especially at Victoria and Dale, but would be interested in expanding their interest west to include Roseville. She stated the two groups would also be writing letters of support. Council member Kuettel said Larpenteur, Hamline, Roselawn, and Snelling – she asked if the City could include in the newsletters how far each street is from the next, in order to get a distance. Mayor Gehrz added that ALRC has also been working hard on publishing an interactive map online to show where the bike paths, sidewalks, etc. are in order to encourage physical activity. Some issues have arisen concerning maintenance, naming, and updating challenges but it is on the horizon. Council member Talbot asked about out-of-pocket expenses if the grant is not awarded. Administrator Miller replied it would be only staff time invested. Council member Lindstrom asked why the path shown on the map ends at the Golf Course on Larpenteur. Administrator Miller stated that it ends in Lauderdale, but will be altered on the map for the grant application. Lindstrom added the cities should ask for a little more money and install a sidewalk through Lauderdale to Minneapolis. Miller replied that when Larpenteur was reconstructed ten years ago, there was a conscious effort on the Lauderdale resident’s part against it. Council member Talbot moved to approve resolution 07-07 Approval of Joint Grant Application – Non-Motorized Transportation Pilot Program. The motion passed unanimously. 2. Resolution of Support for Metro Need LGA Proposal Administrator Miller began the item by stating one of the main areas of debate during this year’s legislative session has been the topic of property tax reform. Metro Cities (formerly the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities) has partnered with Senator Mee Moua (DFL – St. Paul) on a bill that would significantly add money to the Local Government Aid (LGA) program and focus that money towards metropolitan cities who were faced with large LGA cuts during the 2003 budget crisis. The City of Falcon Heights lost approximately $127,000 because of the decrease in LGA between 2002 and 2003 and the bulk has never been restored. Miller added the bill would add $100 million dollars to the overall LGA allotment and would target aid to older and fully developed cities (those with pre-1960s housing and a significant number of rentals). For Falcon Heights, the impact would be extremely large. For example, in 2007 we will receive $228,102 in LGA from the State of Minnesota, a direct benefit to the budget. If this bill were to pass in its current form, our allotment would increase to $559,828. Miller added that $100 million is a little optimistic, but any increase will benefit the City of Falcon Heights. Metro Cities is asking those impacted pass a resolution. Council member Kuettel asked what ANTC stands for. Administrator Miller thought it was “adjusted net tax capacity’ but would double-check. Council member Harris stated she read the summary, along with the bill itself, online. Mayor Gehrz stated that bills like this benefit the cities with smaller tax capacities, and cities like Falcon Heights have to fight for funding through these avenues. 3 Council member Kuettel asked how the percentages would be calculated if the increase would be approved at the legislature. Administrator Miller replied it would be calculated across the board, with all cities taking even hits. He added that likely there would be one omnibus tax bill created, and this would be a rider on that bill. Council member Kuettel pointed out a typo. Council member Harris moved to approve resolution 07-06. The motion passed unanimously. Information/Announcements: Council member Kuettel announced the Food Drive would be April 1 – April 7. City Hall and Falcon Heights Elementary are drop-off sites. The food collected will go to Community Keystone Services on Fairview. Council member Talbot announced the deadline is approaching for the CTV15 mass communications scholarships. Applications are on the web. Mayor Gehrz welcomed a U of M student in the audience. Council member Lindstrom encouraged residents to apply for a Community Garden plot at the park. He added that the City joined Minnesota Green, and each resident who gets a plot will get a packet of seeds. Mayor Gehrz stated 2007 is the first year that the City would not be awarding the Neil Kwong Youth Citizenship Award, due to no nominations. She also stated the Mayor’s Meals on Wheels occurred, and she and Craig Klausing delivered meals in Roseville and Falcon Heights. She also added that residents should donate to the food shelf. Administrator Miller stated the sewer cleaning and televising began. The workshop for April 4 is canceled, and the May workshop may be a joint meeting with Lauderdale. Mayor Gehrz adjourned the meeting at 7:40 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Stacey Kreuser Assistant City Administrator/Deputy Clerk 4 CONSENT F1 4/11/07 ITEM: Disbursements and Payroll SUBMITTED BY: Roland O.

An RFP was sent to six sweeping contractors. Mike McPhillips Inc. was the only bid recieved at $16,250.00 for two sweeps per year, one in the spring and one in the fall. This amount is the same as was budgeted in 2006. • Mike McPhillips Inc. $16,250.00 • Allied Blacktop Co. No Bid • City of Roseville No Bid • Astech Corp. No Bid • Pearson Brothers Inc. No Bid • B.F. Lazon No Bid ACTION REQUESTED Authorize staff to contract with Mike McPhillips Inc. for 2007 street sweeping at a total cost of $16,250.00. 20 21 POLICY G1 4/11/07 ITEM: Amendment #1 to Cooperative Construction Agreement with Capitol Region Watershed District SUBMITTED BY: Justin Miller, City Administrator EXPLANATION: In June 2006, the City of Falcon Heights entered into a cooperative construction agreement with the Capitol Region Watershed District (CRWD). The agreement was based upon a 2001 study which outlined several projects to be jointly funded by CRWD, Ramsey County, and the cities of Falcon Heights, Roseville, and St. Paul. The study determined that the City of Falcon Heights contributed 11.15% of the stormwater to this area, and as such the cooperative agreement called for the city to contribute 11.15% of the costs of the projects. The original agreement called for the City of Falcon Heights to contribute $99,565. The parties agreed to split out the projects into two phases. Phase I included infiltration ditches along Arlington and Nebraska Streets, seven rain gardens, and a pond near Hamline and Midway Parkway. Phase II included an expansion of a pond on Como golf course and an underground storage facility near Arlington and Hamline. Phase I was constructed as part of the Arlington /Pascal RSVP project and was funded 100% by CRWD. Phase II was proposed to be constructed in the fall of 2006. Due to higher than expected bids, roughly half of the project (the underground storage facility and related piping to the golf course pond) has been completed, while the remainder of the project will be completed this year. New bids for the unfinished project were recently opened by CRWD and the new cost allocation requires the city to increase our contribution. The new amount being requested by CRWD is $128,936, which is $29,371 over the original contract. The City of Falcon Heights has limited storm water storage facilities within our boundaries, so we must rely on ponds and underground storage facilities such as these to treat and hold our storm water. While increasing the contract amount is not ideal, the watershed district has taken steps to minimize the increase to its partner communities, such as re-bidding the project when original bids came in extremely high and limiting our contribution to engineering costs to 10% (normal engineering costs are in the 15-18% range). REQUESTED ACTION: Staff recommends that the city council approve the attached Amendment #1 to the Cooperative Construction Agreement between the City of Falcon Heights and Capitol Region Watershed District. Funding for this project will come from the stormwater utility fund. 22 Region Watershed District 1410 Energy Park Dr., Suite 4 St. Paul, MN 55108 Phone: (651) 644-8888 Fax: (651) 644-8894 www.capitolregionwd.org Project Update Arlington Pascal Stormwater Improvement Project February 22, 2007 Phase I was awarded to Danner, Inc. by St. Paul in 2005 as a component of the City's Residential Street Improvement Program and was completed in 2006. Phase I involved constructing seven boulevard rain gardens, a rain garden in Como Park along Hamline Avenue and eight infiltration trenches. These practices, costing approximately $332,000, are being paid 100% by the CRWD. In the spring of 2006 the boulevard infiltration trenches were redesigned to be under Arlington and Nebraska Avenues. Because of this change, the infiltration trenches could be larger in size and the number of trenches was reduced from 42 to 8. This change will make maintenance and monitoring less costly and reduced potential damage to trees and sidewalks when they were to be located in the boulevards. The Phase II work includes an underground stormwater BMP at the southeast intersection of Arlington and Hamline Avenues and the improvements to the Como Park Golf Course Pond. The underground stormwater BMP was completed in October of2006 by Nadeau Excavating of Hampton, MN at a cost of$465,840. The low bidder for the Como Park Golf Course Pond did not enter into a contract and the project was put on hold. Because of the specific August /September time frame allowed for grading work in the gol f course fairways, the project had to be rescheduled for August/September 2007. However, the outlet pipe could be done in the winter of 200612007. Subsequently the District separated the Como Golf Course Pond construction into two different projects. The first project was the horizontal directional drilling of the 640 feet, 24" diameter outlet pipe. Bids were let this fall and the project was awarded to Frontier Pipeline of Somerset, WI for $458,634. Work is scheduled to begin in February and completed in March, 2007. Bids for the Como Golf Course Pond Construction are due on March 16th• This final stage of the project is estimated to cost $545,000. The construction time for that project is August 14th through September 28th• Phase II work is to be paid for by the mutually agreed upon cost-share formula from the Como Subwatershed 7 analysis by the Capitol Region Watershed District, the City of Saint Paul, the City of Falcon Heights, the City of Roseville and Ramsey County. The Capitol Region Watershed District was successful in obtaining two state grants, one for the Arlington Hamline Underground BMP of $75,000 and one for the Como Golf Course Pond for $54,150. These two grants were applied to the total project costs reducing the amount of the local share to $1,574,891. W:\06 Projects\Como Lake Projects\Como Subwatershed Intercom.

IV. Shall be replaced with the following: Falcon Heights will compensate Capitol Region Watershed District for 11.15% of the storm water improvements actual construction costs as estimated in Exhibit “B”, the estimated cost to Falcon Height being $ 128,936. Falcon Heights will not pay any cost for engineering including the preparation of plans and specifications. It is understood that the estimated cost will be adjusted when actual costs are determined, and that Falcon Heights will compensate Capitol Region Watershed District for Falcon Heights’s share of actual costs attributable to the storm water improvement work to be performed under this Agreement but not to exceed $128,936 without the prior written approval of the Falcon Heights City Council. All records and costs pertaining to the work to be performed under this Agreement shall be kept by Capitol Region Watershed District and Falcon Heights in accordance with the established record keeping and accounting procedures developed by each party. Upon completion of the work, Capitol Region Watershed District will submit a payment request for construction costs to Falcon Heights, payable in full within sixty (60) days of the billing date. In addition, it is also understood that Falcon Heights will be billed for construction observation, inspection, surveying and administration, not to exceed 10% of the amount the Falcon Heights is obligated to pay for project construction. All other sections of the agreement remain unchanged and in full force.
