an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire, or endanger the public safety.
(5) That the requested variance is the minimum action required to eliminate the practical difficulties. (6) Variances shall be granted for earth sheltered construction as defined
in Minn. Stats. § 216C.06, subd. 14, when in harmony with this chapter. Variances may be approved for the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling. Page 40 of
140 (f) Conditions. The city may attach conditions to the grant of the variance. A condition must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the impact created
by the variance. (g) Procedure. (1) All applications for variances shall be referred to the planning commission for study and recommendation to the city council. (2) Within 60
days, the planning commission shall forward its recommendations to the city council; if no recommendation is transmitted within 60 days after referral of the application for variance
to the planning commission, the city council may take action without further awaiting such recommendation. (3) Variances are granted or denied by motion of the city council. (h)
Termination. The violation of any condition of the variance shall be the basis for the city council, following a hearing, to terminate the variance. If the property is not used or
improvements substantially begun within a period of one year after the decision granting the variance, unless the variance decision provides otherwise, the variance shall be terminated.
Unless the city council specifically approves a different time when action is officially taken on the request, approvals which have been issued under the provisions of this section
shall expire without further action by the planning commission or the city council, unless the applicant commences the authorized use or improvement within one year of the date the
variance is issued; or, unless before the expiration of the one-year period, the applicant shall apply for an extension thereof by completing and submitting a request for extension,
including the renewal fee as established by city council. The request for extension shall state facts showing a good faith attempt to complete or utilize the approval permitted in the
variance. A request for an extension not exceeding one year shall be subject to the review and approval of the zoning administrator. Should a second extension of time, or any extension
of time longer than one year, be requested by the applicant, it shall be presented to the planning commission for a recommendation and to the city council for a decision. (Code 1993,

Sec. 113-83 - Purpose and public policy Conditional uses are those uses authorized by this chapter which require special planning consideration due to traffic circulation and access
needs or impacts, operational characteristics, proximity to other similar uses, impact on neighboring property, etc., and which therefore need special conditions imposed to establish
or control these factors in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare and to assure compliance and harmony with the comprehensive plan of the city. In the enactment of
the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, the city recognizes that there are certain uses that, because of their characteristics, limited number, or unique Page 41 of 140 character,
cannot be classified into any particular district or districts without providing for such districts extensive regulatory provisions herein. It is also recognized that there may be uses
that are not provided for in this chapter. Certain uses, while generally not suitable in a particular zoning district, may, under some circumstances and conditions be suitable. A conditional
use permit shall apply to the use and land and not to a particular person or firm; any change in land ownership, lease, rental, occupancy or similar change shall not affect the permit
or its conditions except as may be specifically authorized and required by the city. Conditional use permits may be issued for any of the following: (1) Any of the uses or purposes
for which such permits are required or permitted by the provisions of this chapter. (2) Public utility or public service uses or public buildings in any district when found to be
necessary for the public health, safety, convenience or welfare. (3) To permit the location of any of the following uses in a district from which they are excluded by the provisions
of this chapter: library, community center, church, hospital, any institution of an educational, philanthropic or charitable nature, cemetery or mausoleum. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(1))
Sec. 113-84 - Application; information required (a) Generally; fee. Any owner of property, or a person holding a contract to purchase property, or an optionee holding an option conditioned
solely on the grant of a conditional use permit; or the duly authorized agent of such applicant, may make application for a conditional use permit; however, any proceedings to classify
certain uses as conforming uses may be initiated either by such application or by the city council or by the city planning commission. The application shall be made on forms prepared
by the zoning administrator, and filed with him or her. The application shall contain the section number of the chapter which permits the issuance of the permit, a brief statement describing
the use and why the applicant feels that it can be permitted, a statement of the ownership interest in the property of the applicant, as well as the additional information required
below. An application for a conditional use permit shall be accompanied by payment of a fee as set from time to time by the city council in addition to the regular building permit fee,
if any. (b) Site plan and graphic or written material; location map, etc. A site plan and supplementary graphic or written material shall be provided with the application, containing
the following information and/or such additional or lesser information as may be required by the zoning administrator: (1) Name, address, and legal description of project/development.
(2) Location map, showing zoning district boundaries including area within one-half mile of the site. (3) Name and mailing address of developer/owner and engineer/architect. (4)
Date of plan preparation. (5) Scale and a north point indicator. Page 42 of 140 (6) Boundary line of property with their dimensions. (7) Location identification and dimensions
of existing and proposed: a. Topographic contours of minimum intervals of two feet. b. Adjacent streets and on-street right-of-way. c. On-site streets and street right-of-way.
d. All utility and utility right-of-way easements. e. Lighting plan, showing the lighting of parking areas, walks, security lights and driveway entrance lights. f. Buildings and
structures including: 1. Elevation drawings of all proposed building and structures with dimensions. 2. Elevation, height above mean sea level of all floors and roofs, when structure
is sited in an area prone to flooding as determined by the city engineer. 3. Gross square footage of existing and proposed buildings and structures. 4. Exterior finish materials.
5. Type of business, proposed number of employees, and times of operations. g. All parking facilities. h. Water bodies and drainage ditches. i. Fences and retaining walls.
j. Landscape plan, showing size and species of each planting. k. On- and off-site traffic flow. l. Parking plan. (8) Site statistics including square footage, percentage of coverage,
dwelling unit density, and percentage of park or open space. (9) Names and addresses of the owners of all property abutting the subject property, as contained in the current real
estate tax rolls, including property located across the street, avenue or alley from the subject property. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(2)) Sec. 113-85 - Hearing; development standards (a)
Public hearing. The planning commission shall hold a public hearing preceded by ten days' published and mailed notice. Mailed notice should be given to property owners within 350 feet
of the property for which the conditional use permit is sought. (b) Review of applicant's plan. The planning commission and/or council shall consider to what extent the applicant's
plan minimizes possible adverse effects of the proposed conditional Page 43 of 140 use, what modifications to the plan and what conditions on approval could further minimize the adverse
effects of the proposed use. (c) General requirements. The following development standards shall be considered general requirements for all conditional use permits except as hereinafter
provided: (1) The land area and setback requirements of the property containing such a use or activity meet the minimums established for the district. (2) When abutting a residential
use, the property shall be screened and landscaped. (3) Where applicable, all city, county, state and federal laws, regulations and ordinances shall be complied with and all necessary
permits secured. (4) Signs shall not adversely impact adjoining or surrounding residential uses. (5) Adequate off-road parking and loading shall be provided. Such parking and loading
shall be screened and landscaped from abutting residential uses. (6) The road serving the use or activity must be of sufficient design to accommodate the proposed use or activity,
and such use or activity shall not generate such additional extra traffic as to create a nuisance or hazard to existing traffic or to surrounding land use. (7) All access roads, driveways,
parking areas, and outside storage, service, or sales areas shall be surfaced or grassed to control dust and drainage. (8) All open and outdoor storage, sales and service areas shall
be screened from view from public streets and from abutting residential uses or districts. (9) All lighting shall be designed to prevent any direct source of light being visible from
adjacent residential areas or from the public streets. (10) The use or activity shall be properly drained to control surface water runoff. (11) The architectural appearance and
functional plan of the building and site shall not be so dissimilar to the existing buildings or area as to cause impairment in property values or constitute a blighting influence.
(12) The proposed water, sewer and other utilities shall be capable of accommodating the proposed use. (13) That the proposed use conforms to the comprehensive municipal plan. Such
a finding shall be based upon the following considerations: a. That certain uses may not be considered appropriate within the interior of residential neighborhoods because of noise,
traffic, or other conditions that would tend to affect adversely the residential character of the neighborhood and possibly reduce property values. These uses are considered appropriate
only on the periphery of residential neighborhoods, or under such conditions as the planning commission may deem proper. The uses may represent "buffer" uses for those areas lying between
single-family dwellings and nonresidential uses. b. That certain uses are considered, as a rule, unsuitable in business districts because of inherent business characteristics (e.g.
traffic, noise, glare), proximity to Page 44 of 140 residential areas, the fact that they tend not to serve nearby residential areas, or may adversely affect nearby permitted business
uses. c. That certain temporary uses that are generally not suitable within a particular zoning district are potentially suitable on a temporary basis. This may be due to the lack
of development on existing property, to a short-term need (such as highway construction), or to a limited degree of adverse effects upon adjacent land use. (d) Exceptions. These standards
shall be strictly applied unless it is found in the particular case that the community safety, health and welfare can as well or better be served by modifying them. Any special requirements
applicable to the particular case that are imposed elsewhere in this chapter shall be met in each case. (e) Recommendations. When applications are reviewed by the planning commission
but acted upon by the city council, the planning commission shall recommend to the city council whatever action it deems advisable, including all recommended conditions on the granting
of the conditional use permit. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(3)) Sec. 113-86 - Action In acting upon applications for conditional use permits, consideration shall be given to the effect of
the proposed use upon the health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience and welfare of the occupants of the surrounding lands, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, including
parking facilities on adjacent sites. When applications are reviewed by the planning commission but acted upon by the city council, the city council may hold whatever public hearings
it deems advisable or may return the application to the planning commission for further consideration. (1) Approval. If it is determined that the general and special requirements
of this chapter will be satisfied by the applicant's plan, the city may grant such permit and may impose conditions relating to the general and special requirements in each case, including
durational conditions. Approval shall be by resolution. (2) Denial. Conditional use permits may be denied by resolution. Such resolution shall state the reasons for denial, but may
incorporate by reference the minutes and recommendations of the planning commission, staff reports, hearing testimony and any other material relevant to the decision. (Code 1993, §
9-15.04(4)) Sec. 113-87 - Violations; termination If compliance with all of the conditions of the conditional use permit has not taken place within the time prescribed by the city,
the permit is deemed terminated, unless the council, in its sole discretion, extends the time for compliance for an additional permit not to exceed one year. Any violation of a continuing
condition shall be grounds for revocation of the conditional use permit, after notice of violation served upon the permit holder in the manner of a civil summons at least ten days prior
to hearing, and upon the council finding at the revocation hearing that the Page 45 of 140 condition violated remains necessary to carry out the purposes of this section and that the
permit holder is unable or unwilling to satisfy the condition. Such finding shall be made by majority vote, upon the preponderance of the evidence presented by the zoning administrator
and anyone appearing on behalf of the permit holder. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(5)) Sec. 113-88 - Performance bond The city may require a performance bond or other security, to guarantee
performance of the conditions in any case where such performance is not otherwise guaranteed. Such security shall be provided prior to the issuance of building permits or initiation
of work on the proposed improvements or development and shall be in an amount 1.25 times the approved estimated costs of labor and materials for the proposed improvements or development.

allow a use: (1) For a temporary period of time until a permanent location is obtained or while the permanent location is under construction. (2) That is presently judged acceptable
by the city council, but that with anticipated development or redevelopment, will not be acceptable in the future or will be replaced in the future by a permitted or conditional use
allowed within the respective district. (3) Which is reflective of anticipated long-range change to an area and which is in compliance with the comprehensive plan provided that said
use maintains harmony and compatibility with surrounding uses and is in keeping with the architectural character and design standards of existing uses and development. (Code 1993,
§ 9-15.08(1); Ord. No. 03-02, § 2, 2-12-2003) Sec. 113-121 - Procedure Interim uses shall be processed according to the standards and procedures for a conditional use permit as established

that screening and landscaping shall not be required unless specifically enumerated as a condition in the permit. (3) The use is allowed as an interim use in the respective zoning
district. (4) The date or event that will terminate the use can be identified with certainty. (5) The use will not impose additional unreasonable costs on the public. (6) The
user agrees to any conditions that the city council deems appropriate for permission of the use. (b) An interim use shall terminate on the happening of any of the following events,
whichever occurs first: (1) The date or event stated in the permit. (2) Upon violation of conditions under which the permit was issued. (3) Upon change in the city's zoning regulations
that render the use nonconforming. (Code 1993, § 9-15.08(3); Ord. No. 03-02, § 2, 2-12-2003) Secs. 113-123 – 113-142 - Reserved ARTICLE III - ZONING DISTRICTS ESTABLISHED; ZONING MAP

district is intended to permit flexibility of site design, the conservation of land and open space through clustering of buildings and activities, and an incentive to developers to
plan creatively by providing density bonuses. This flexibility can be achieved by allowing deviations from standards including setbacks, heights and similar regulations. PUDs are characterized
by central management, integrated planning and architecture, joint or common use of parking, open space and other facilities, and a harmonious selection and efficient distribution of
uses. (Code 1993, § 9-16.01) Page 64 of 140 Sec. 113-200 - Required use PUD zoning is required for all developments having two or more principal uses or structures on a single parcel
of land and may include townhouses, apartment projects involving more than one building, residential subdivisions, multi-use structures such as an apartment building with retail at
ground floor level, commercial developments, mixed residential and commercial developments, and similar projects. (Code 1993, § 9-16.02) Sec. 113-201 - General requirements and standards
(a) Comprehensive plan/Code consistency. A PUD must be consistent with the city comprehensive plan and the intent and purpose of the city Code provisions relative to land use, subdivision
and development. (b) Operating and maintenance requirements for PUD common open space/facilities. Whenever joint common open space or service facilities for individual owners or users
are provided within the PUD, the PUD plan shall provide reasonable assurance of adequate operation and maintenance of such open space and service facilities. (c) Staging of public
and common open space. When a PUD provides for common or public open space, the total area of common or public open space or security in any stage of development, shall, at a minimum,
bear the same relationship to the total open space to be provided in the entire PUD as the stages or units completed or under development bear to the entire PUD. (d) Development stages.
Whenever any PUD is to be developed in stages, no such stage shall, when averaged with all previously completed stages, have a residential density that exceeds 125 percent of the proposed
residential density of the entire PUD. (e) Urban development and availability of public services. All development shall be carefully phased so as to ensure that it will not cause
an unreasonable burden upon the city in providing services and utilities or cause a deleterious impact upon the natural environment. (Code 1993, § 9-16.03) Sec. 113-202 - Permitted
uses and standards The permitted uses, standards, and development plan shall be set forth in the ordinance rezoning the property to PUD. (Code 1993, § 9-16.04) Sec. 113-203 - Procedure

of 140 (Code 1993, § 9-2.07(1); Ord. No. 0-93-07, § 5, 7-28-1993) Sec. 113-244 - Telecommunication towers and antennas (a) Purpose. In order to accommodate the communication needs
of residents and businesses while protecting the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community, the council finds that these regulations are necessary to: (1) Maximize
the use of existing and approved towers and buildings to accommodate new personal wireless service antennas in order to reduce the number of new towers necessary to serve the community;
(2) Ensure antennas and towers are designed, located, and constructed in accordance with all applicable Code requirements to avoid potential damage to adjacent properties from failure
of the antenna and tower through structural standards and setback requirements; (3) Require antennas and tower sites to be secured in order to discourage trespassing and vandalism;
and (4) Require tower equipment to be screened from the view of persons located on properties contiguous to the site and/or to be camouflaged in a manner to compliment existing structures
to minimize adverse visual effects of antennas and towers. (b) Permits. (1) It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to erect, construct, place or reerect, replace,
or make structural repairs to any tower without first making application for and securing a building permit as provided in this chapter, except as provided in subsection (b)(3) of this
section. (2) The applicant shall provide a report from a qualified and licensed professional engineer that demonstrates the tower's compliance with all applicable structural and electrical
standards, including but not limited to the Minnesota State Building Code, and includes the engineer's certification. (3) Permits are not required for: a. Adjustment, repair, or
replacement of existing antennas or the elements of an antenna array affixed to a tower or antenna, provided that adjustment or replacement does not reduce the safety factor. b. Routine
maintenance (e.g., painting) and other nonstructural-related repairs of towers. c. Antennas and/or towers erected temporarily for test purposes, for emergency communication, or for
broadcast remote pick-up operations, provided that all requirements of subsection (b)(5) of this section are met, with the exception of subsection (b)(5)i. of this section (regarding
corrosive material) which is waived. Temporary antennas shall be removed within 72 hours following installation, unless additional time is approved by the building official. Temporary
towers erected for emergency purposes may be exempt from setback requirements of this article as determined by the building official. Page 82 of 140 (4) The fee to be paid is that
prescribed under building permit fees. (5) All antennas and towers erected, constructed, or located within the city, including all necessary wiring, shall comply with the following
requirements: a. All applicable provisions of this chapter. b. Towers and their antennas shall be certified by a qualified and licensed professional engineer to conform to the latest
structural standards and wind loading requirements of the Minnesota State Building Code and the electronics industry association and all other applicable reviewing agencies. c. With
the exception of necessary electric and telephone service and connection lines approved by the city, no part of any antenna or tower nor any lines, cable, equipment, or wires or braces
in connection with either shall at any time extend across or over any part of the right-of-way, public street, highway, sidewalk, or property line. d. Towers and their antennas shall
be designed to conform to accepted electrical engineering methods and practices and to comply with the provisions of the National Electrical Code. e. Antennas which are directly mounted
to the ground, or which are mounted in any other way which would allow an individual to easily make contact with the active element, shall be shielded or fenced to reduce its shock
hazard. f. All towers shall be constructed to conform to the requirements of the occupational safety and health administration. g. All towers shall be reasonably protected against
unauthorized climbing. h. Antennas and towers may only be erected in accordance with applicable zoning restrictions. i. Towers shall be constructed of corrosive resistant metal
material. j. Persons responsible for all communication towers and their antennas shall maintain a general liability insurance policy that provides coverage for any damage to property
or injuries to persons caused by collapse of the tower. Said insurance policy shall provide coverage on an occurrence basis in an amount no less than $1,000,000.00. (c) Inspections;
notice of violations. All towers may be inspected at least once each year by an official of the city to determine compliance with original construction standards. Deviations from original
design for which a permit is obtained constitutes a violation of this section. Notice of violations shall be sent by registered mail to the owner of the property and the owner shall
have 30 days from the date the notification is issued to make repairs. The owner shall notify the city that the repairs have been made, and as soon as possible thereafter, another inspection
shall be made and the owner notified of the results. (d) Height and zoning district restrictions. (1) Tower height determination. The height of towers shall be determined by measuring
the vertical distance from the tower's point of contact with the ground to the highest Page 83 of 140 point of the tower, including all antennas or other attachments. When towers are
mounted upon other structures, the combined height of the structure, the tower, the antenna, and all attachments must meet the height restrictions of this section. (2) Antenna height
determination. Antenna height includes the height of the antenna from the base of the antenna to the peak and all other attachments. (3) Height restrictions per zone. Zoning district
restrictions and maximum heights for towers and antennas are as follows: a. Rooftop antennas ten feet or less in height are a permitted use in all zoning districts except that commercial
antennas are not permitted in an R-1 zone. b. Towers or antennas no more than 110 feet in height are a permitted use in a P-1/R1 zone except on the elementary school property located
at 1393 Garden Avenue. c. Towers or antennas over ten feet in height but no more than 110 feet in height are a conditional use in P-1 and B-2 zones if the property does not abut R-1
zoned property. d. Nonfreestanding towers and nonfreestanding antennas over ten feet in height, which are attached to a structure over 45 feet in height are a conditional use in all
zoning districts under the following conditions: 1. The tower and antennas are located upon structures allowed as principal or conditional uses in the underlying zoning district or
upon public structures. 2. The tower and antennas are limited to a height of 15 feet projecting above the structure. The city may permit antenna heights of up to 25 feet above the
structure if the applicant can demonstrate that, by a combination of tower or antenna design, positioning of the structure or by screening erected or already in place on the structure,
off-site views of the antenna are minimized. (4) Amateur radio antennas. In accordance with the preemption ruling PRB1 of the Federal Communications Commission, towers supporting
amateur radio antennas that comply with all other requirements of this section are exempted from the height limitations of this section, provided that such height is technically necessary
to receive and broadcast amateur radio signals, and does not exceed 70 feet total height. (e) Site location and setbacks. In residential and business districts towers and antennas
must be located in the rear yard. In all districts, towers and antennas shall conform to each of the minimum setback requirements: (1) Towers shall meet the principal structure setbacks
of the underlying zoning district except that towers and antennas must be set back one foot from all property lines for each foot of tower and/or antenna. (2) Towers shall not be
located between a principal structure and a public street. (3) A tower or antenna setback may be reduced through a conditional use permit, at the sole discretion of the city council,
to allow the integration of a tower into an existing or proposed structure such as a church steeple, light pole, public communications tower, power line support device, or similar structure.
The term "integration" may include Page 84 of 140 replacement of an existing structure to include a personal wireless service provider, but does not include replication of a structure.
(4) Only one tower shall exist at any one time on any one parcel, unless additional towers or antennas could be incorporated into existing structures such as a church steeple, light
pole, power line support device, public communications building or other similar structure. (f) Lighting. Towers shall not be illuminated by artificial means and shall not display
strobe lights unless such lighting is specifically required by the Federal Aviation Administration or other federal or state authority for a particular tower. When incorporated into
the approved design of the tower for camouflage purposes, light fixtures used to illuminate ball fields, parking lots, or similar areas may be attached to the tower. (g) Signs and
advertising. No signage, advertising, or identification of any kind intended to be visible from the ground or other structures is permitted, except applicable warning and equipment
information signage required by the manufacturer or by federal, state, or local authorities. (h) Accessory utility buildings. All utility buildings and structures accessory to a tower
shall be architecturally designed to blend in with the surrounding environment and shall meet the minimum setback requirements for accessory structures of the underlying zoning district.
Ground-mounted equipment shall be screened from view by suitable vegetation, except where a design of nonvegetative screening better reflects and complements the architectural character
of the surrounding neighborhood. (i) Design standards. Proposed or modified towers and antennas shall meet the following requirements: (1) Towers and antennas (including antenna
cables) shall be designed to blend into the surrounding environment to the maximum extent possible as determined by the city through the use of building materials, colors, texture,
screening, landscaping, and other camouflaging architectural treatment, except in instances where the color is dictated by federal or state authorities such as the Federal Aviation
Administration; (2) Personal wireless service towers shall be of a monopole design unless the city council determines that an alternative design would better blend in to the surrounding
environment. (j) Collocation requirement. All personal wireless service towers erected, constructed, or located within the city shall comply with the following requirements: (1)
A proposal for a new personal wireless service tower shall not be approved unless the city council finds that the telecommunications equipment planned for the proposed tower cannot
be accommodated on an existing or approved tower or building that is greater than 60 feet in height, within a one-quarter mile search radius for towers less than 110 feet in height
or a one-half mile search radius for towers equal to or greater than 110 feet in height of the proposed tower due to one or more of the following reasons: a. The planned equipment
would exceed the structural capacity of the existing or approved tower or building as documented by a qualified and licensed professional Page 85 of 140 engineer, and the existing or
approved tower cannot be reinforced, modified, or replaced to accommodate planned or equivalent equipment at a reasonable cost. b. Existing or approved towers and buildings within
the search radius cannot accommodate the planned equipment at a height necessary to function reasonably as documented by a qualified radio frequency engineer. c. Other unforeseen
reasons that make it infeasible to locate the planned telecommunications equipment upon an existing or approved tower or building. (2) The applicant must demonstrate that a good faith
effort to collocate on existing towers and structures was made, but an agreement could not be reached. (3) Any proposed personal wireless service tower shall be designed, structurally,
electrically, and in all respects, to accommodate both the applicant's antennas and comparable antennas for at least two additional users if the tower is over 90 feet in height or for
at least one additional user if the tower is over 60 feet in height. Towers must be designed to allow for future rearrangement of antennas upon the tower and to accept antennas mounted
at varying heights. (k) Antennas mounted on roofs, walls, and existing towers. The placement of commercial antennas on roofs, walls, and existing towers may be approved by the city,
with a conditional use permit, provided the antennas meet the requirements of this chapter. In addition to the submittal requirements required elsewhere in this chapter, an application
for a building permit for antennas to be mounted on an existing structure shall be accompanied by the following information: (1) A site plan showing the location of the proposed antennas
on the structure and documenting that the request meets the requirements of this chapter; (2) A building plan showing the construction of the antennas and the proposed method of attaching
them to the existing structure, and documenting that the request meets the requirements of this chapter; (3) Certification by a qualified and licensed professional engineer indicating
the existing structure or tower's ability to support the antennas. (l) Nonconforming existing antennas and towers. Antennas and towers in residential districts and in existence as
of the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived that do not conform or comply with this section are subject to the following provisions: (1) Towers may continue
in use for the purpose used and existing as of the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, but may not be replaced or structurally altered without complying
in all respects with this section. (2) If such towers are subsequently damaged or destroyed due to any reason or cause whatsoever, the tower may be repaired and restored to its former
use, location, and physical dimensions upon obtaining a building permit for the repair or restoration, but without otherwise complying with this chapter, provided, however, that if
the cost of repairing the tower to the former use, physical dimensions, and location would be 50 percent or more of the cost of a new tower of like kind and quality, then the tower
may not be repaired or restored except in full compliance with this section. Page 86 of 140 (m) Abandoned or unused towers or portions of towers. All abandoned or unused towers and
associated facilities shall be removed within 12 months of the cessation of operations at the site unless a time extension is approved by the city. In the event that a tower is not
removed within 12 months of the cessation of operations at a site, the tower and associated facilities may be removed by the city and the costs of removal assessed against the property.
After the facilities are removed, the site shall be restored to its original or an improved state. (n) Interference with public safety telecommunications. No new or existing telecommunications
service shall interfere with public safety telecommunications. (o) Additional submittal requirements. (1) In addition to the information required elsewhere in this chapter for an
application for a building permit for towers and their antennas, applications for conditional use permits for such towers shall include the following supplemental information: a.

and appeals. (Code 1993, § 9-15.02) State Law reference – Board of adjustments and appeals, Minn. Stats. § 462.354, subd. 2. Sec. 113-62 - Variances (a) Definitions. The following
words, terms and phrases, when used in this division, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this section, except where the context clearly indicates a different meaning: Page
39 of 140 Practical difficulties means the same as that term defined in Minn. Stats. § 462.357, as may be amended, meaning that the property owner proposes to use the property in a
reasonable manner not permitted by this chapter, the plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner, and a variance, if granted,
shall not alter the character of the locality. Economic considerations alone shall not constitute practical difficulties. Practical difficulties include but are not limited to inadequate
access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. Variance means a modification of or variation from the provisions of this chapter consistent with the state enabling statute for
municipalities, as applied to a specific property and granted pursuant to the standards and procedures of this chapter. (b) Purpose. The purpose of this division is to provide the
procedure and criteria for variances. (c) Application. (1) Any owner of property or a person holding a contract to purchase property, or an optionee holding an option conditioned
solely on the grant of a variance, or the duly authorized agent of such appellant, may make application for a variance. The application shall be made on forms prepared by the zoning
administrator. (2) The application shall contain the legal description of the property, the zoning district in which it is located, a brief statement of the reasons the variance is
requested, a statement of the ownership interest therein of the applicant and the names and addresses of the owners of all abutting property as listed on the current real estate tax
rolls. The application shall be verified. (d) Use variances prohibited. Variances may not be approved for a use that is not allowed in the zoning district where the property is located.
(e) Review criteria. The city council shall not approve any variance request unless they find that failure to grant the variance will result in practical difficulties on the applicant,
and, as may be applicable, all of the following criteria have been met: (1) The variance would be in harmony with the general purposes and intent of this chapter. (2) The variance
would be consistent with the comprehensive plan. (3) That, there are practical difficulties in complying with this chapter. (4) That the granting of the variance will not impair
an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, or substantially increase the congestion of the public streets, or increase the danger of fire, or endanger the public safety.
(5) That the requested variance is the minimum action required to eliminate the practical difficulties. (6) Variances shall be granted for earth sheltered construction as defined
in Minn. Stats. § 216C.06, subd. 14, when in harmony with this chapter. Variances may be approved for the temporary use of a one-family dwelling as a two-family dwelling. Page 40 of
140 (f) Conditions. The city may attach conditions to the grant of the variance. A condition must be directly related to and must bear a rough proportionality to the impact created
by the variance. (g) Procedure. (1) All applications for variances shall be referred to the planning commission for study and recommendation to the city council. (2) Within 60
days, the planning commission shall forward its recommendations to the city council; if no recommendation is transmitted within 60 days after referral of the application for variance
to the planning commission, the city council may take action without further awaiting such recommendation. (3) Variances are granted or denied by motion of the city council. (h)
Termination. The violation of any condition of the variance shall be the basis for the city council, following a hearing, to terminate the variance. If the property is not used or
improvements substantially begun within a period of one year after the decision granting the variance, unless the variance decision provides otherwise, the variance shall be terminated.
Unless the city council specifically approves a different time when action is officially taken on the request, approvals which have been issued under the provisions of this section
shall expire without further action by the planning commission or the city council, unless the applicant commences the authorized use or improvement within one year of the date the
variance is issued; or, unless before the expiration of the one-year period, the applicant shall apply for an extension thereof by completing and submitting a request for extension,
including the renewal fee as established by city council. The request for extension shall state facts showing a good faith attempt to complete or utilize the approval permitted in the
variance. A request for an extension not exceeding one year shall be subject to the review and approval of the zoning administrator. Should a second extension of time, or any extension
of time longer than one year, be requested by the applicant, it shall be presented to the planning commission for a recommendation and to the city council for a decision. (Code 1993,
§ 9-15.03; Ord. No. 11-01, § 1, 7-13-2011) State Law reference – Variances, Minn. Stats. § 462.357, subd. 6(2). Secs. 113-63 – 113-82 - Reserved DIVISION 3 - CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS2
Sec. 113-83 - Purpose and public policy Conditional uses are those uses authorized by this chapter which require special planning consideration due to traffic circulation and access
needs or impacts, operational characteristics, proximity to other similar uses, impact on neighboring property, etc., and which therefore need special conditions imposed to establish
or control these factors in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare and to assure compliance and harmony with the comprehensive plan of the city. In the enactment of
the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, the city recognizes that there are certain uses that, because of their characteristics, limited number, or unique Page 41 of 140 character,
cannot be classified into any particular district or districts without providing for such districts extensive regulatory provisions herein. It is also recognized that there may be uses
that are not provided for in this chapter. Certain uses, while generally not suitable in a particular zoning district, may, under some circumstances and conditions be suitable. A conditional
use permit shall apply to the use and land and not to a particular person or firm; any change in land ownership, lease, rental, occupancy or similar change shall not affect the permit
or its conditions except as may be specifically authorized and required by the city. Conditional use permits may be issued for any of the following: (1) Any of the uses or purposes
for which such permits are required or permitted by the provisions of this chapter. (2) Public utility or public service uses or public buildings in any district when found to be
necessary for the public health, safety, convenience or welfare. (3) To permit the location of any of the following uses in a district from which they are excluded by the provisions
of this chapter: library, community center, church, hospital, any institution of an educational, philanthropic or charitable nature, cemetery or mausoleum. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(1))
Sec. 113-84 - Application; information required (a) Generally; fee. Any owner of property, or a person holding a contract to purchase property, or an optionee holding an option conditioned
solely on the grant of a conditional use permit; or the duly authorized agent of such applicant, may make application for a conditional use permit; however, any proceedings to classify
certain uses as conforming uses may be initiated either by such application or by the city council or by the city planning commission. The application shall be made on forms prepared
by the zoning administrator, and filed with him or her. The application shall contain the section number of the chapter which permits the issuance of the permit, a brief statement describing
the use and why the applicant feels that it can be permitted, a statement of the ownership interest in the property of the applicant, as well as the additional information required
below. An application for a conditional use permit shall be accompanied by payment of a fee as set from time to time by the city council in addition to the regular building permit fee,
if any. (b) Site plan and graphic or written material; location map, etc. A site plan and supplementary graphic or written material shall be provided with the application, containing
the following information and/or such additional or lesser information as may be required by the zoning administrator: (1) Name, address, and legal description of project/development.
(2) Location map, showing zoning district boundaries including area within one-half mile of the site. (3) Name and mailing address of developer/owner and engineer/architect. (4)
Date of plan preparation. (5) Scale and a north point indicator. Page 42 of 140 (6) Boundary line of property with their dimensions. (7) Location identification and dimensions
of existing and proposed: a. Topographic contours of minimum intervals of two feet. b. Adjacent streets and on-street right-of-way. c. On-site streets and street right-of-way.
d. All utility and utility right-of-way easements. e. Lighting plan, showing the lighting of parking areas, walks, security lights and driveway entrance lights. f. Buildings and
structures including: 1. Elevation drawings of all proposed building and structures with dimensions. 2. Elevation, height above mean sea level of all floors and roofs, when structure
is sited in an area prone to flooding as determined by the city engineer. 3. Gross square footage of existing and proposed buildings and structures. 4. Exterior finish materials.
5. Type of business, proposed number of employees, and times of operations. g. All parking facilities. h. Water bodies and drainage ditches. i. Fences and retaining walls.
j. Landscape plan, showing size and species of each planting. k. On- and off-site traffic flow. l. Parking plan. (8) Site statistics including square footage, percentage of coverage,
dwelling unit density, and percentage of park or open space. (9) Names and addresses of the owners of all property abutting the subject property, as contained in the current real
estate tax rolls, including property located across the street, avenue or alley from the subject property. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(2)) Sec. 113-85 - Hearing; development standards (a)
Public hearing. The planning commission shall hold a public hearing preceded by ten days' published and mailed notice. Mailed notice should be given to property owners within 350 feet
of the property for which the conditional use permit is sought. (b) Review of applicant's plan. The planning commission and/or council shall consider to what extent the applicant's
plan minimizes possible adverse effects of the proposed conditional Page 43 of 140 use, what modifications to the plan and what conditions on approval could further minimize the adverse
effects of the proposed use. (c) General requirements. The following development standards shall be considered general requirements for all conditional use permits except as hereinafter
provided: (1) The land area and setback requirements of the property containing such a use or activity meet the minimums established for the district. (2) When abutting a residential
use, the property shall be screened and landscaped. (3) Where applicable, all city, county, state and federal laws, regulations and ordinances shall be complied with and all necessary
permits secured. (4) Signs shall not adversely impact adjoining or surrounding residential uses. (5) Adequate off-road parking and loading shall be provided. Such parking and loading
shall be screened and landscaped from abutting residential uses. (6) The road serving the use or activity must be of sufficient design to accommodate the proposed use or activity,
and such use or activity shall not generate such additional extra traffic as to create a nuisance or hazard to existing traffic or to surrounding land use. (7) All access roads, driveways,
parking areas, and outside storage, service, or sales areas shall be surfaced or grassed to control dust and drainage. (8) All open and outdoor storage, sales and service areas shall
be screened from view from public streets and from abutting residential uses or districts. (9) All lighting shall be designed to prevent any direct source of light being visible from
adjacent residential areas or from the public streets. (10) The use or activity shall be properly drained to control surface water runoff. (11) The architectural appearance and
functional plan of the building and site shall not be so dissimilar to the existing buildings or area as to cause impairment in property values or constitute a blighting influence.
(12) The proposed water, sewer and other utilities shall be capable of accommodating the proposed use. (13) That the proposed use conforms to the comprehensive municipal plan. Such
a finding shall be based upon the following considerations: a. That certain uses may not be considered appropriate within the interior of residential neighborhoods because of noise,
traffic, or other conditions that would tend to affect adversely the residential character of the neighborhood and possibly reduce property values. These uses are considered appropriate
only on the periphery of residential neighborhoods, or under such conditions as the planning commission may deem proper. The uses may represent "buffer" uses for those areas lying between
single-family dwellings and nonresidential uses. b. That certain uses are considered, as a rule, unsuitable in business districts because of inherent business characteristics (e.g.
traffic, noise, glare), proximity to Page 44 of 140 residential areas, the fact that they tend not to serve nearby residential areas, or may adversely affect nearby permitted business
uses. c. That certain temporary uses that are generally not suitable within a particular zoning district are potentially suitable on a temporary basis. This may be due to the lack
of development on existing property, to a short-term need (such as highway construction), or to a limited degree of adverse effects upon adjacent land use. (d) Exceptions. These standards
shall be strictly applied unless it is found in the particular case that the community safety, health and welfare can as well or better be served by modifying them. Any special requirements
applicable to the particular case that are imposed elsewhere in this chapter shall be met in each case. (e) Recommendations. When applications are reviewed by the planning commission
but acted upon by the city council, the planning commission shall recommend to the city council whatever action it deems advisable, including all recommended conditions on the granting
of the conditional use permit. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(3)) Sec. 113-86 - Action In acting upon applications for conditional use permits, consideration shall be given to the effect of
the proposed use upon the health, safety, morals, comfort, convenience and welfare of the occupants of the surrounding lands, existing and anticipated traffic conditions, including
parking facilities on adjacent sites. When applications are reviewed by the planning commission but acted upon by the city council, the city council may hold whatever public hearings
it deems advisable or may return the application to the planning commission for further consideration. (1) Approval. If it is determined that the general and special requirements
of this chapter will be satisfied by the applicant's plan, the city may grant such permit and may impose conditions relating to the general and special requirements in each case, including
durational conditions. Approval shall be by resolution. (2) Denial. Conditional use permits may be denied by resolution. Such resolution shall state the reasons for denial, but may
incorporate by reference the minutes and recommendations of the planning commission, staff reports, hearing testimony and any other material relevant to the decision. (Code 1993, §
9-15.04(4)) Sec. 113-87 - Violations; termination If compliance with all of the conditions of the conditional use permit has not taken place within the time prescribed by the city,
the permit is deemed terminated, unless the council, in its sole discretion, extends the time for compliance for an additional permit not to exceed one year. Any violation of a continuing
condition shall be grounds for revocation of the conditional use permit, after notice of violation served upon the permit holder in the manner of a civil summons at least ten days prior
to hearing, and upon the council finding at the revocation hearing that the Page 45 of 140 condition violated remains necessary to carry out the purposes of this section and that the
permit holder is unable or unwilling to satisfy the condition. Such finding shall be made by majority vote, upon the preponderance of the evidence presented by the zoning administrator
and anyone appearing on behalf of the permit holder. (Code 1993, § 9-15.04(5)) Sec. 113-88 - Performance bond The city may require a performance bond or other security, to guarantee
performance of the conditions in any case where such performance is not otherwise guaranteed. Such security shall be provided prior to the issuance of building permits or initiation
of work on the proposed improvements or development and shall be in an amount 1.25 times the approved estimated costs of labor and materials for the proposed improvements or development.

allow a use: (1) For a temporary period of time until a permanent location is obtained or while the permanent location is under construction. (2) That is presently judged acceptable
by the city council, but that with anticipated development or redevelopment, will not be acceptable in the future or will be replaced in the future by a permitted or conditional use
allowed within the respective district. (3) Which is reflective of anticipated long-range change to an area and which is in compliance with the comprehensive plan provided that said
use maintains harmony and compatibility with surrounding uses and is in keeping with the architectural character and design standards of existing uses and development. (Code 1993,

with the following: Page 46 of 140 (1) Meet the standards of a conditional use permit set forth in section 113-85 of this chapter, except that screening and landscaping shall not
be required unless specifically enumerated as a condition in the permit. (2) Conform to the applicable general performance standards of article VI, division 3 of this chapter, except
that screening and landscaping shall not be required unless specifically enumerated as a condition in the permit. (3) The use is allowed as an interim use in the respective zoning
district. (4) The date or event that will terminate the use can be identified with certainty. (5) The use will not impose additional unreasonable costs on the public. (6) The
user agrees to any conditions that the city council deems appropriate for permission of the use. (b) An interim use shall terminate on the happening of any of the following events,
whichever occurs first: (1) The date or event stated in the permit. (2) Upon violation of conditions under which the permit was issued. (3) Upon change in the city's zoning regulations
that render the use nonconforming. (Code 1993, § 9-15.08(3); Ord. No. 03-02, § 2, 2-12-2003) Secs. 113-123 – 113-142 - Reserved ARTICLE III - ZONING DISTRICTS ESTABLISHED; ZONING MAP

district is intended to permit flexibility of site design, the conservation of land and open space through clustering of buildings and activities, and an incentive to developers to
plan creatively by providing density bonuses. This flexibility can be achieved by allowing deviations from standards including setbacks, heights and similar regulations. PUDs are characterized
by central management, integrated planning and architecture, joint or common use of parking, open space and other facilities, and a harmonious selection and efficient distribution of
uses. (Code 1993, § 9-16.01) Page 64 of 140 Sec. 113-200 - Required use PUD zoning is required for all developments having two or more principal uses or structures on a single parcel
of land and may include townhouses, apartment projects involving more than one building, residential subdivisions, multi-use structures such as an apartment building with retail at
ground floor level, commercial developments, mixed residential and commercial developments, and similar projects. (Code 1993, § 9-16.02) Sec. 113-201 - General requirements and standards
(a) Comprehensive plan/Code consistency. A PUD must be consistent with the city comprehensive plan and the intent and purpose of the city Code provisions relative to land use, subdivision
and development. (b) Operating and maintenance requirements for PUD common open space/facilities. Whenever joint common open space or service facilities for individual owners or users
are provided within the PUD, the PUD plan shall provide reasonable assurance of adequate operation and maintenance of such open space and service facilities. (c) Staging of public
and common open space. When a PUD provides for common or public open space, the total area of common or public open space or security in any stage of development, shall, at a minimum,
bear the same relationship to the total open space to be provided in the entire PUD as the stages or units completed or under development bear to the entire PUD. (d) Development stages.
Whenever any PUD is to be developed in stages, no such stage shall, when averaged with all previously completed stages, have a residential density that exceeds 125 percent of the proposed
residential density of the entire PUD. (e) Urban development and availability of public services. All development shall be carefully phased so as to ensure that it will not cause
an unreasonable burden upon the city in providing services and utilities or cause a deleterious impact upon the natural environment. (Code 1993, § 9-16.03) Sec. 113-202 - Permitted
uses and standards The permitted uses, standards, and development plan shall be set forth in the ordinance rezoning the property to PUD. (Code 1993, § 9-16.04) Sec. 113-203 - Procedure
for processing a planned unit development (a) Approval process. Planned unit developments may be permitted in the legislative discretion of the city council. The application and hearing
process for planned unit developments will be as required for other zoning chapter amendments. Page 65 of 140 (b) Preapplication conference. Before filing an application for PUD,
the applicant of the proposed PUD shall arrange for and attend a conference with the city administrator. The primary purpose of the conference shall be to provide the applicant with

Code provisions as they apply to single family dwelling buildings. (7) Sewer and water? (8) Addressing? Commented [HBL2]: PW & St. Paul Water Commented [HBL3]: Ramsey County Emergency
Services / GIS Page 76 of 140 (9) A detached accessory dwelling unit may be located above a detached garage or within a separate accessory building meeting the standards for accessory
buildings established in this section. (10) Home occupations meeting the definitions and requirements of section 113-391 are permitted in accessory dwelling units. (11) Dimensional
standards for all accessory dwelling units shall conform to the following guidelines: a. The maximum height of an accessory dwelling unit shall meet the requirements as set forth in
section 113-240(f). b. An accessory dwelling unit shall include at least 300 square feet of living area, up to a maximum of 1000 square feet of living area, but in no case shall an
accessory dwelling unit exceed 75% of the principal dwelling’s four-season living area (exclusive of the accessory dwelling unit). For the purposes of this provision, “living area”
shall include kitchen areas, bathrooms, living rooms, bedrooms (including the closet with defines the bedroom), and other rooms, and shall exclude utility rooms, hallways, entryways,
storage areas, and garages. c. An accessory dwelling unit shall include a maximum of one bedroom. d. All accessory dwelling units shall meet the standards for principal buildings;
notwithstanding this requirement, detached accessory dwelling units shall not be located closer to the front property line than the principal building. (12) The entryway to a detached
accessory dwelling unit shall be connected to a street frontage with a paved walkway. (13) For attached accessory dwelling units, the appearance or character of the principal building
shall not be significantly altered so that its appearance is no longer than of a one-family dwelling. (14) For detached accessory dwelling units, the following design standards shall
be met: a. The exterior finish material shall match in type, size, and placement of the exterior finish of the principal dwelling unit or garage, if built in conjunction with a garage.
b. The roof pitch shall match the predominant roof pitch of the principal dwelling unit. c. Trim and projecting eaves shall match the trim and projecting eaves used on the principal
dwelling unit or garage, if built in conjunction with a garage. d. Windows shall match those in the principal dwelling unit in proportion (relationship of width to height) and orientation
(horizontal or vertical). (15) A lifetime, non-transferable accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit shall be required from the zoning administrator to allow an accessory dwelling
unit to be rented. For the purposes of this provision, a “rented” accessory dwelling unit is one that is being occupied by a person or persons other than the family occupying the principal
dwelling unit. Each property owner seeking to rent an accessory dwelling unknit, or occupy an accessory dwelling unit while renting the principal dwelling unit, shall apply for a new
accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit according to the procedure established herein. In addition to receiving an accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit, the property shall be in
compliance with the city’s rental housing requirements in chapter 105, article IV. Commented [HBL4]: Thoughts on this? Page 77 of 140 a. The owner of the property on which an accessory
dwelling unit is proposed shall file a permit application by paying the fee set forth in the city fee schedule and submitting a completed application form and supporting documents as
set forth on the application form. The zoning administrator will review the application to determine whether the application is complete and the subject property is eligible to receive
the required accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit. b. Upon determination that a complete application has been submitted and that the property owner is eligible to receive the requested
accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit, property owners within a radius of 100 feet shall be notified in writing by the zoning administrator of the application. Notified property
owners shall have seven days from date of the letter in which to share comments or concerns about the application before the zoning administrator issues the permit. c. The city may
impose conditions on the issuance of an accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit. Such conditions must be directly related to, and must bear a rough proportionality to, impacts created
by the accessory dwelling unit. d. If a permitted accessory dwelling unit or the property for which the accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit has been issued should fail to meet
the requirements of the permit, and/or if a property for which an accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit has been issued should become ineligible for such permit, the issued permit
may be revoked upon determination by the zoning administrator that the noncompliance and/or ineligibility issue(s) cannot be or have not been resolved. If an accessory dwelling unit
occupancy permit is revoked, occupation of the accessory dwelling unit by a person or persons other than the family occupying the principal dwelling unit shall cease within 60 days
of the date of the revocation. e. Determinations pertaining to the continuing compliance and/or eligibility of an accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit or the property for which
an accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit has been issued may be reviewed, upon written request from the property owner, by the city council. The city council shall act on a timely
written request. A decision by the city council affirming the determination will be in writing and supported by written findings establishing the reasonableness of the decision. f.
An accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit shall expire upon transfer of the property to a new owner. Continued use of a rented accessory dwelling unit on a property which has been
transferred to a new owner shall require the new owner to apply for a new accessory dwelling unit occupancy permit. (Code 1993, § 9-2.04; Ord. No. 0-89-12, 7-26-1989; Ord. No. 0-89-16,

of 140 (Code 1993, § 9-2.07(1); Ord. No. 0-93-07, § 5, 7-28-1993) Sec. 113-244 - Telecommunication towers and antennas (a) Purpose. In order to accommodate the communication needs
of residents and businesses while protecting the public health, safety, and general welfare of the community, the council finds that these regulations are necessary to: (1) Maximize
the use of existing and approved towers and buildings to accommodate new personal wireless service antennas in order to reduce the number of new towers necessary to serve the community;
(2) Ensure antennas and towers are designed, located, and constructed in accordance with all applicable Code requirements to avoid potential damage to adjacent properties from failure
of the antenna and tower through structural standards and setback requirements; (3) Require antennas and tower sites to be secured in order to discourage trespassing and vandalism;
and (4) Require tower equipment to be screened from the view of persons located on properties contiguous to the site and/or to be camouflaged in a manner to compliment existing structures
to minimize adverse visual effects of antennas and towers. (b) Permits. (1) It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation to erect, construct, place or reerect, replace,
or make structural repairs to any tower without first making application for and securing a building permit as provided in this chapter, except as provided in subsection (b)(3) of this
section. (2) The applicant shall provide a report from a qualified and licensed professional engineer that demonstrates the tower's compliance with all applicable structural and electrical
standards, including but not limited to the Minnesota State Building Code, and includes the engineer's certification. (3) Permits are not required for: a. Adjustment, repair, or
replacement of existing antennas or the elements of an antenna array affixed to a tower or antenna, provided that adjustment or replacement does not reduce the safety factor. b. Routine
maintenance (e.g., painting) and other nonstructural-related repairs of towers. c. Antennas and/or towers erected temporarily for test purposes, for emergency communication, or for
broadcast remote pick-up operations, provided that all requirements of subsection (b)(5) of this section are met, with the exception of subsection (b)(5)i. of this section (regarding
corrosive material) which is waived. Temporary antennas shall be removed within 72 hours following installation, unless additional time is approved by the building official. Temporary
towers erected for emergency purposes may be exempt from setback requirements of this article as determined by the building official. Page 82 of 140 (4) The fee to be paid is that
prescribed under building permit fees. (5) All antennas and towers erected, constructed, or located within the city, including all necessary wiring, shall comply with the following
requirements: a. All applicable provisions of this chapter. b. Towers and their antennas shall be certified by a qualified and licensed professional engineer to conform to the latest
structural standards and wind loading requirements of the Minnesota State Building Code and the electronics industry association and all other applicable reviewing agencies. c. With
the exception of necessary electric and telephone service and connection lines approved by the city, no part of any antenna or tower nor any lines, cable, equipment, or wires or braces
in connection with either shall at any time extend across or over any part of the right-of-way, public street, highway, sidewalk, or property line. d. Towers and their antennas shall
be designed to conform to accepted electrical engineering methods and practices and to comply with the provisions of the National Electrical Code. e. Antennas which are directly mounted
to the ground, or which are mounted in any other way which would allow an individual to easily make contact with the active element, shall be shielded or fenced to reduce its shock
hazard. f. All towers shall be constructed to conform to the requirements of the occupational safety and health administration. g. All towers shall be reasonably protected against
unauthorized climbing. h. Antennas and towers may only be erected in accordance with applicable zoning restrictions. i. Towers shall be constructed of corrosive resistant metal
material. j. Persons responsible for all communication towers and their antennas shall maintain a general liability insurance policy that provides coverage for any damage to property
or injuries to persons caused by collapse of the tower. Said insurance policy shall provide coverage on an occurrence basis in an amount no less than $1,000,000.00. (c) Inspections;
notice of violations. All towers may be inspected at least once each year by an official of the city to determine compliance with original construction standards. Deviations from original
design for which a permit is obtained constitutes a violation of this section. Notice of violations shall be sent by registered mail to the owner of the property and the owner shall
have 30 days from the date the notification is issued to make repairs. The owner shall notify the city that the repairs have been made, and as soon as possible thereafter, another inspection
shall be made and the owner notified of the results. (d) Height and zoning district restrictions. (1) Tower height determination. The height of towers shall be determined by measuring
the vertical distance from the tower's point of contact with the ground to the highest Page 83 of 140 point of the tower, including all antennas or other attachments. When towers are
mounted upon other structures, the combined height of the structure, the tower, the antenna, and all attachments must meet the height restrictions of this section. (2) Antenna height
determination. Antenna height includes the height of the antenna from the base of the antenna to the peak and all other attachments. (3) Height restrictions per zone. Zoning district
restrictions and maximum heights for towers and antennas are as follows: a. Rooftop antennas ten feet or less in height are a permitted use in all zoning districts except that commercial
antennas are not permitted in an R-1 zone. b. Towers or antennas no more than 110 feet in height are a permitted use in a P-1/R1 zone except on the elementary school property located
at 1393 Garden Avenue. c. Towers or antennas over ten feet in height but no more than 110 feet in height are a conditional use in P-1 and B-2 zones if the property does not abut R-1
zoned property. d. Nonfreestanding towers and nonfreestanding antennas over ten feet in height, which are attached to a structure over 45 feet in height are a conditional use in all
zoning districts under the following conditions: 1. The tower and antennas are located upon structures allowed as principal or conditional uses in the underlying zoning district or
upon public structures. 2. The tower and antennas are limited to a height of 15 feet projecting above the structure. The city may permit antenna heights of up to 25 feet above the
structure if the applicant can demonstrate that, by a combination of tower or antenna design, positioning of the structure or by screening erected or already in place on the structure,
off-site views of the antenna are minimized. (4) Amateur radio antennas. In accordance with the preemption ruling PRB1 of the Federal Communications Commission, towers supporting
amateur radio antennas that comply with all other requirements of this section are exempted from the height limitations of this section, provided that such height is technically necessary
to receive and broadcast amateur radio signals, and does not exceed 70 feet total height. (e) Site location and setbacks. In residential and business districts towers and antennas
must be located in the rear yard. In all districts, towers and antennas shall conform to each of the minimum setback requirements: (1) Towers shall meet the principal structure setbacks
of the underlying zoning district except that towers and antennas must be set back one foot from all property lines for each foot of tower and/or antenna. (2) Towers shall not be
located between a principal structure and a public street. (3) A tower or antenna setback may be reduced through a conditional use permit, at the sole discretion of the city council,
to allow the integration of a tower into an existing or proposed structure such as a church steeple, light pole, public communications tower, power line support device, or similar structure.
The term "integration" may include Page 84 of 140 replacement of an existing structure to include a personal wireless service provider, but does not include replication of a structure.
(4) Only one tower shall exist at any one time on any one parcel, unless additional towers or antennas could be incorporated into existing structures such as a church steeple, light
pole, power line support device, public communications building or other similar structure. (f) Lighting. Towers shall not be illuminated by artificial means and shall not display
strobe lights unless such lighting is specifically required by the Federal Aviation Administration or other federal or state authority for a particular tower. When incorporated into
the approved design of the tower for camouflage purposes, light fixtures used to illuminate ball fields, parking lots, or similar areas may be attached to the tower. (g) Signs and
advertising. No signage, advertising, or identification of any kind intended to be visible from the ground or other structures is permitted, except applicable warning and equipment
information signage required by the manufacturer or by federal, state, or local authorities. (h) Accessory utility buildings. All utility buildings and structures accessory to a tower
shall be architecturally designed to blend in with the surrounding environment and shall meet the minimum setback requirements for accessory structures of the underlying zoning district.
Ground-mounted equipment shall be screened from view by suitable vegetation, except where a design of nonvegetative screening better reflects and complements the architectural character
of the surrounding neighborhood. (i) Design standards. Proposed or modified towers and antennas shall meet the following requirements: (1) Towers and antennas (including antenna
cables) shall be designed to blend into the surrounding environment to the maximum extent possible as determined by the city through the use of building materials, colors, texture,
screening, landscaping, and other camouflaging architectural treatment, except in instances where the color is dictated by federal or state authorities such as the Federal Aviation
Administration; (2) Personal wireless service towers shall be of a monopole design unless the city council determines that an alternative design would better blend in to the surrounding
environment. (j) Collocation requirement. All personal wireless service towers erected, constructed, or located within the city shall comply with the following requirements: (1)
A proposal for a new personal wireless service tower shall not be approved unless the city council finds that the telecommunications equipment planned for the proposed tower cannot
be accommodated on an existing or approved tower or building that is greater than 60 feet in height, within a one-quarter mile search radius for towers less than 110 feet in height
or a one-half mile search radius for towers equal to or greater than 110 feet in height of the proposed tower due to one or more of the following reasons: a. The planned equipment
would exceed the structural capacity of the existing or approved tower or building as documented by a qualified and licensed professional Page 85 of 140 engineer, and the existing or
approved tower cannot be reinforced, modified, or replaced to accommodate planned or equivalent equipment at a reasonable cost. b. Existing or approved towers and buildings within
the search radius cannot accommodate the planned equipment at a height necessary to function reasonably as documented by a qualified radio frequency engineer. c. Other unforeseen
reasons that make it infeasible to locate the planned telecommunications equipment upon an existing or approved tower or building. (2) The applicant must demonstrate that a good faith
effort to collocate on existing towers and structures was made, but an agreement could not be reached. (3) Any proposed personal wireless service tower shall be designed, structurally,
electrically, and in all respects, to accommodate both the applicant's antennas and comparable antennas for at least two additional users if the tower is over 90 feet in height or for
at least one additional user if the tower is over 60 feet in height. Towers must be designed to allow for future rearrangement of antennas upon the tower and to accept antennas mounted
at varying heights. (k) Antennas mounted on roofs, walls, and existing towers. The placement of commercial antennas on roofs, walls, and existing towers may be approved by the city,
with a conditional use permit, provided the antennas meet the requirements of this chapter. In addition to the submittal requirements required elsewhere in this chapter, an application
for a building permit for antennas to be mounted on an existing structure shall be accompanied by the following information: (1) A site plan showing the location of the proposed antennas
on the structure and documenting that the request meets the requirements of this chapter; (2) A building plan showing the construction of the antennas and the proposed method of attaching
them to the existing structure, and documenting that the request meets the requirements of this chapter; (3) Certification by a qualified and licensed professional engineer indicating
the existing structure or tower's ability to support the antennas. (l) Nonconforming existing antennas and towers. Antennas and towers in residential districts and in existence as
of the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived that do not conform or comply with this section are subject to the following provisions: (1) Towers may continue
in use for the purpose used and existing as of the effective date of the ordinance from which this chapter is derived, but may not be replaced or structurally altered without complying
in all respects with this section. (2) If such towers are subsequently damaged or destroyed due to any reason or cause whatsoever, the tower may be repaired and restored to its former
use, location, and physical dimensions upon obtaining a building permit for the repair or restoration, but without otherwise complying with this chapter, provided, however, that if
the cost of repairing the tower to the former use, physical dimensions, and location would be 50 percent or more of the cost of a new tower of like kind and quality, then the tower
may not be repaired or restored except in full compliance with this section. Page 86 of 140 (m) Abandoned or unused towers or portions of towers. All abandoned or unused towers and
associated facilities shall be removed within 12 months of the cessation of operations at the site unless a time extension is approved by the city. In the event that a tower is not
removed within 12 months of the cessation of operations at a site, the tower and associated facilities may be removed by the city and the costs of removal assessed against the property.
After the facilities are removed, the site shall be restored to its original or an improved state. (n) Interference with public safety telecommunications. No new or existing telecommunications
service shall interfere with public safety telecommunications. (o) Additional submittal requirements. (1) In addition to the information required elsewhere in this chapter for an
application for a building permit for towers and their antennas, applications for conditional use permits for such towers shall include the following supplemental information: a.
A report from a qualified and licensed professional engineer which does the following: 1. Describes the tower height and design including a cross section and elevation; 2. Documents
the height above grade for all potential mounting positions for collocated antennas and the minimum separation distances between antennas; 3. Describes the tower's capacity, including
the number and type of antennas that it can accommodate; and b. For all personal wireless service towers, a letter of intent committing the tower owner and his or her successors to
allow the shared use of the tower if an additional user agrees in writing to meet reasonable terms and conditions for shared use, so long as there is no negative structural impact upon
the tower and there is no disruption to the service provided. (2) Before the issuance of a building permit, the following supplemental information shall be submitted: a. Confirmation
that the proposed tower complies with the requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and any appropriate state review authority or that
the tower is exempt from those regulations; and b. A report from a qualified and licensed professional engineer that demonstrates the tower's compliance with the applicable structural
and electrical, but not radio frequency, standards. (p) Exemptions. The following antennas are exempt from the requirements under this section except as otherwise provided in this
subsection: (1) Satellite earth station antennas no more than ten feet in height that are two meters or less in diameter and located or proposed to be located in a business district;

Hi Rob,
Could you help me think through wording for describing the ParkMobile/pay for parking program to our residents? We have been using the term permit parking, which implies only people
with permits can park on the streets during the fair. We would get strong push back against that.
We're not replacing meters, which is how you would describe using Park Mobile in a commercial area.
We're essentially selling parking on our residential streets without the meters.
Promoting benefits is not hard to describe - raise revenue/add a revenue stream/pay for street improvements.
I'm just tripping over good verbiage to describe the program.

Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution.
Check out some of the public engagement materials linked here for some language on how various cities have described their programs to residents: https://parkingreform.org/playbook/pbd/resources.html
.
That page also has links to ordinances too.
Because ParkMobile is highly customizable. Let's try laying out exactly what you want. Answer these questions, like an FAQ.
Is the program full time, year round?
Is the program like a paid permit in a residential area?
Do residents have to pay?
How will people know when the program is in effect?
ParkMobile eliminates the need for meters. It also allows for resident discounts. Residents all have driveways, right? So the main people to pay would be visitors, correct?
Let's set up a time to chat after you answer that FAQ and look over the links I sent.
Best,
Rob

get there early (and a moped/motorcycle that can fit), and they likely park all day every day.
It would take some work to figure out, but having a program where streets that have paid parking options are exempted from assessments would be an interesting policy to explore.

Because ParkMobile is highly customizable. Let's try laying out exactly what you want. Answer these questions, like an FAQ.
Is the program full time, year round?
Is the program like a paid permit in a residential area?
Do residents have to pay?
How will people know when the program is in effect?
ParkMobile eliminates the need for meters. It also allows for resident discounts. Residents all have driveways, right? So the main people to pay would be visitors, correct?
Let's set up a time to chat after you answer that FAQ and look over the links I sent.

Hi Rob,
Could you help me think through wording for describing the ParkMobile/pay for parking program to our residents? We have been using the term permit parking, which implies only people
with permits can park on the streets during the fair. We would get strong push back against that.
We're not replacing meters, which is how you would describe using Park Mobile in a commercial area.
We're essentially selling parking on our residential streets without the meters.
Promoting benefits is not hard to describe - raise revenue/add a revenue stream/pay for street improvements.
I'm just tripping over good verbiage to describe the program.

I just think we need a better term that permit parking, an easy way to name it/describe it. Pay for parking versus permit parking? Metered parking? (although there won't be meters people
know that term.

After some searching, a common way to describe it was pay-by-smartphone parking or mobile paid parking app as language. The tough part is most cities that I found implementing it went
from meters -> mobile parking or for paying in parking lots/ramps.
I looked more at the other cities in MN, and Wayzata uses it for boat parking: https://wayzatamn.portal.civicclerk.com/event/1479/files/report/7076
One thing we'd want to be cognizant on is security. As I was searching for other cities branding efforts, I found a few security related articles: https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/personal-info
-accessed-during-hack-of-mpls-parking-app/
https://www.stcloudlive.com/news/local/st-cloud-officials-warn-of-parkmobile-scam
https://natlawreview.com/article/parkmobile-can-t-escape-data-breach-class-action
It sounds like they fixed the 2021 breach and the 2024 issue was users paying the wrong website. Still, good questions to ask if we go the RFP route. Flowbird seems to be the major competitor
that could be compared. We don't have to go for an RFP, and could use a governmental purchasing cooperative like Omnia Partners, which the city is a part of: https://www.omniapartners.com/suppliers/

Hello Robert,
Happy New Year!
Just wanted to give you an update.
I've been nagging our city administrator and reminding him that you said implementing Park Mobile will take 6 months.
The State Fair Task Force is meeting on Jan. The city administrator is going to present/share information on using Park Mobile.
What is the best term to use when we describe/promote this, get task force and city council members support? Paid on-street parking? Pay for street parking?
Could you please reply all? I don't check council email at work or on my phone, and will be going straight from work to a meeting with the city administrator.
Thanks!

Hi Rob,
Thank you for sharing, it's a really helpful presentation.
The meeting for next week looks to be on Wednesday, Jan 15th at 7PM here at City Hall (2077 Larpenteur Ave W). Would it be possible for you to attend and provide a 10-15 minute presentation
on the proposal? You likely can present the "what" much more eloquently than we can. We could try Zoom as well, but to be honest it's 50/50 if we can get Zoom running correctly during
the meeting, so in-person is definitely best.
Let me know your thoughts.
Jack

Hi Rob,
Could you help me think through wording for describing the ParkMobile/pay for parking program to our residents? We have been using the term permit parking, which implies only people
with permits can park on the streets during the fair. We would get strong push back against that.
We're not replacing meters, which is how you would describe using Park Mobile in a commercial area.
We're essentially selling parking on our residential streets without the meters.
Promoting benefits is not hard to describe - raise revenue/add a revenue stream/pay for street improvements.
I'm just tripping over good verbiage to describe the program.

Hi Rob,
Thank you for sharing, it's a really helpful presentation.
The meeting for next week looks to be on Wednesday, Jan 15th at 7PM here at City Hall (2077 Larpenteur Ave W). Would it be possible for you to attend and provide a 10-15 minute presentation
on the proposal? You likely can present the "what" much more eloquently than we can. We could try Zoom as well, but to be honest it's 50/50 if we can get Zoom running correctly during
the meeting, so in-person is definitely best.
Let me know your thoughts.

Subject: Re: Falcon Heights ParkMobile Short Proposal
Hi Rob,
Thank you for sharing, it's a really helpful presentation.
The meeting for next week looks to be on Wednesday, Jan 15th at 7PM here at City Hall (2077 Larpenteur Ave W<https://www.google.com/maps/search/2077+Larpenteur+Ave+W?entry=gmail&source=g>).
Would it be possible for you to attend and provide a 10-15 minute presentation on the proposal? You likely can present the "what" much more eloquently than we can. We could try Zoom
as well, but to be honest it's 50/50 if we can get Zoom running correctly during the meeting, so in-person is definitely best.
Let me know your thoughts.
Jack

Hey Jack and Paula,

Because ParkMobile is highly customizable. Let's try laying out exactly what you want. Answer these questions, like an FAQ.
Is the program full time, year round?
Is the program like a paid permit in a residential area?
Do residents have to pay?
How will people know when the program is in effect?
ParkMobile eliminates the need for meters. It also allows for resident discounts. Residents all have driveways, right? So the main people to pay would be visitors, correct?
Let's set up a time to chat after you answer that FAQ and look over the links I sent.
Best,

Hi Rob,
Could you help me think through wording for describing the ParkMobile/pay for parking program to our residents? We have been using the term permit parking, which implies only people
with permits can park on the streets during the fair. We would get strong push back against that.
We're not replacing meters, which is how you would describe using Park Mobile in a commercial area.
We're essentially selling parking on our residential streets without the meters.
Promoting benefits is not hard to describe - raise revenue/add a revenue stream/pay for street improvements.
I'm just tripping over good verbiage to describe the program.

Here's an idea I'd like to propose -
Robert, you mentioned a six months lead time. The second biggest event at the fairgrounds is the Back to 50s Car show June 20 - 22. Would it be at all possible to test Park Mobile that
weekend? Less busy than the State Fair, but lots of parking in our Northome neighborhood and some in our Northeast neighborhood.
Robert, here's a link to our city map for State Fair parking:

Hello,
Attached is a draft of an FAQ, anticipating questions State Fair Task members and residents may ask.
Paula Mielke
Falcon Heights City Council
1/12/25 Draft of FAQ
Why do we want to charge fair goers to work to park in our city?Our city incurs a lot of expenses preparing for the fair and receives little reimbursement. By charging a parking fee,
we will recoup expenses we incur for public works time and our own signage. Revenue beyond that could be used to fund a special project. Perhaps our city could move away from property
owners bearing the cost of major street repairs.
How will people know they need to pay for parking?There will be a lot of signage at entrance areas to the city and on the streets. Park Mobile provides the signs.
Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate?Recommend daily, easier to enforce.
How will the city know whether a person has paid?Backend data provided by the app and accessible by police, city staff.
Will the police issue parking tickets? Fair goers who didn’t pay can be ticketed. Enforcing is not a good use of police officers’ time – we need officers to focus on traffic. Cadets
could possibly be enforcers. Or we can hire enforcers – they do not need to be officers. Park Mobile also can provide this service.
How much will it cost our city to implement?No capitol expense – Park Mobile provides all the signage. There is a minimal fee for each transaction.
Why Park Mobile?We explored temporary parking meters, but this is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities and events
in the metro area work with Park Mobile.
Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will this be handled if we switch to paid parking?
We want to be a welcoming city. If we charge for parking on our streets, doesn’t that convey we’re not welcoming?Just a gentle reminder - the State Fair charges fair goers to park in
the lots on the fairgrounds. Ideally, the fair would begin using Park Mobile as well so fairgoers will know when these lots are full in advance.
It’s very unusual for an event of this magnitude to be held in a residential area. We get a lot of wear and tear on our streets. Revenue from State Fair parking can help cover maintenance
of our neighborhood streets, and ideally, will help our city move away from assessing property owners for major street maintenance.
Why not limit paid parking to neighborhoods closest to the fairgrounds? We know that there will be a ripple effect – fair goers will look for free parking in adjacent neighborhoods or
other areas within the city. Charging for parking throughout will help balance the volume of parked vehicles throughout the city.
Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair?Yes, the pay for street parking areas will be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency
vehicles can get through or neighborhoods.
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds?Yes, there is a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates.Will the program full time, year-round?We’re focusing on
parking during the State Fair and other events at the fairgrounds that generate in high volume of traffic and parking in neighborhoods, such as the Back to 50’s car show.
How will this impact St. Paul?More people would look for free parking spots within St. Paul. They may want to pay for street parking as well.
How will this impact business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots?It most likely won’t impact the businesses that sell parking at all. When people couldn’t find free
parking, they paid for parking.
How do we determine what to charge?At a minimum, we want to recoup the expenses the city incurs as a result of the fair.
Will people who have parked on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger?The city will conduct a public relations campaign to get the word out. We realize
that won’t reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual.
What is the projected revenue?$100,000 to $200,000
How will this affect State Fair employees who park in our neighborhoods?It’s not our city’s role to provide parking for fair employees.
Does Park Mobile provide training for enforcers?Our residents may be interested in being enforcers, earning a little money when trapped (!) at home by the fair. Is training provided?

Hi Hannah,
If you are feeling well enough and are back in on Tuesday, could you help me with taking our State Fair Parking Map and adding green lines for everywhere that is a city-owned street
with available parking?
If we can't get it ready by afternoon the original map will work, but a map showing where people could park (and where we could do Park Mobile) would help
Thank you!

Generate Revenue Through E-meter Parking During State Fair
The Falcon Heights State Fair Task Force and City Council are exploring charging Minnesota State Fair attendees a parking fee when they park on our neighborhood streets.
We estimate that in just the two neighborhoods east of Snelling, there are roughly 800 to 1,000 parking spots. The State Fair raised its daily parking fee to $25. If we charge $25 per
day for parking over the 12 days of the fair, we could potentially raise $240,000. The task force and city council would need to determine how that money would be used but one idea
is to move away from assessing homeowners for street repairs.
Park Mobile, the largest e-meter company in the U.S., made a presentation to the task force. When a fair goer parks, they would pay the parking fee using the Park Mobile app, website
or simply call Park Mobile to enter their vehicle license plate number. The city would pay a low transaction fee. Parking would continue to be on one side of streets only so emergency
vehicles can get through. Parking enforcers would be hired to monitor parking and check that the vehicle owner had paid the parking fee.
If we implement this program, it will require a lot of advance communication and signage. Fortunately, Park Mobile provides signage at no charge.
The task force and council have many decisions to make. Should we roll out e-meter parking in only a few neighborhoods? Should the rate vary by distance to the fair? Should Falcon Heights
residents receive a discount? How will this affect areas where there is permit parking only?
Task force and council members would like residents’ input. There will be a presentation on e-meter parking and a public hearing at the City Council meeting at 7 p.m., Wed., March 26.

2/10/25 Updated Draft of FAQ
Why do we want to charge fair goers to park in our city neighborhoods?Our city has very few means for generating revenue. By charging a parking fee during the 12 days of the State Fair,
we can raise and earmark revenue for a special fund. Perhaps our city could move away from property owners bearing the cost of major street repairs.
What is the projected revenue?$100,000 to $200,000 per State Fair.
How will fair goers know they need to pay for parking?A lot of advance communication and signage will be required. Park Mobile provides the signs at no charge.
Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate?We recommend a daily rate, which is easier to enforce, and fair goers can enjoy their day at the fair without worrying that the e-meter has expired.
We propose charging the same daily parking rate as the State Fair ($25).
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds? Or for residents?There are a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates. There could be a discounted rate for residents,
but the overall goal is to generate a new revenue source for the city.
How will the city know whether a person has paid?Park Mobile generates that data and makes it accessible to police and parking enforcers.
Will the police issue parking tickets? Fair goers who don’t pay can be ticketed. We propose having e-meter enforcers so police can focus on traffic and patrolling neighborhoods.
How much will it cost our city to implement?There is a minimal processing fee for each transaction, and there is no capital expense. Park Mobile provides all the signage at no cost.
Why Park Mobile?We explored temporary parking meters, but this is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across
Minnesota work with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website or simply call Park Mobile.
Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will this be handled if we switch to paid parking?
The Task Force, council and city staff are considering options. The goal is to be equitable across all neighborhoods.
We want to be a welcoming city. If we charge for parking on our streets, doesn’t that convey we’re not welcoming?Our residential neighborhoods are being used as free public parking during
the fair. People are accustomed to paying for event parking, and we’re confident they will quickly adapt.
Why not limit paid parking to neighborhoods closest to the fairgrounds? We know that there will be a ripple effect – fair goers will look for free parking in adjacent neighborhoods or

why Falcon Heights has chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t

Hi Paula,
Nice work on these, thank you. I had just a minor change in the article to provide more flexibility in what the benefit may be. For the FAQs, mainly just minor additions. I do recommend
we strike the State Fair employees parking, as I think it's implied and feels a bit targeted. The MN State Fair would contend their employees park on-site-- they don't hire or control
the vendors' employees parking. I know we'd disagree, but this will make it feel less targeted towards the Fair and more targeted towards attendees.
I'll send these over to Mona and copy you, letting her know we are still doing some edits internally as well.
Jack

Subject: State Fair Task Force - 2/19/25 Draft Agenda & E-Meter Article / FAQ for Spring 2025 Newsletter
Hi Mona,
Happy Wednesday!
Attached is the draft agenda for next week, as well as some drafts of articles we are going to publish in the upcoming Spring 2025 Newsletter that is mailed to residents. Give them a
look, and let me know your thoughts. Paula wrote the original articles and I made some minor tweaks, but they are still in draft form.
For the agenda, it's fairly light outside of the E-Meter/Park Mobile discussion and potential recommendation to City Council. I do think there needs to be more discussion on the nitty
gritty details we avoided last meeting, like where it should be instituted, how to handle permits for residents, etc.
We also have some updates on legislation our D66 Sen. Clare Oumou Verbeten has been working on. Happy to add other items the task force may want to discuss as well.

Hi Jack,
I hope you are surviving the cold but enjoying what snow we have!
I am attaching the notes from the January SFTF meeting.
Could I ask/beg you to make the correction in the minutes regarding the survey response - 61% of respondents did not see regular patrols. And please correct this in previous meeting
minutes back to the survey report. While it may seem a minor point, we want to be able to justify the need for better policing outside the SF. So, we don't want anyone to use this
incorrect statistic and make the argument that patrolling is already adequate.
Thank you for all of your work on the behalf of all of us in FH, I do appreciate it and understand that you have a million things pulling at your attention.

Item E-Meters Proposal Description Following the presentation from Park Mobile in January, the City Council discussed the item at their February workshop and generally supported further
exploring the proposal. The City Council plans to hold a public meeting and public hearing opportunity on the proposal at the March 26th, 2025 City Council meeting at 7PM. Before the
public hearing and community meeting, it would be beneficial for the Task Force to discuss some of the logistical questions and provide a direction on the topic. Namely: • Where streets/neighborhood
s should e-meters cover? • How should we handle parking permits/comp tickets for residents living on an e-meter street? • How should we approach areas that are currently State Fair Permit
Parking Only? While these questions do not need to be answered in one night, it would be beneficial to think on these topics and present a recommendation to the City Council for their
decision late March. Budget Impact Conservative estimates on the budget impact would be approximately $100,000 to $200,000 annually in net new revenue. Attachment(s) • Spring 2025 Newsletter
Article on E-Meters • E-Meter FAQs Action(s) Requested Staff recommends the task force discuss e-meters and bring questions or thoughts on the concept. Meeting Date February 19, 2025
Agenda Item E1 Attachment N/A Submitted By Jack Linehan, City Administrator State Fair Task Force Exploring E-Meter Parking for State Fair Events The Falcon Heights State Fair Task
Force and City Council are exploring charging Minnesota State Fair attendees a parking fee when they park on our neighborhood streets. It is estimated that in just the two neighborhoods
east of Snelling, there are roughly 800 to 1,000 parking spots. The State Fair raised its daily parking fee to $25. Charging $25 per day for parking over the 12 days of the fair could
potentially raise $240,000. The task force and city council would need to determine how that money would be used but one idea is to dedicate the money towards city streets, reducing
the costs residents pay for assessments and property taxes for street improvements. Park Mobile, the largest e-meter company in the U.S., made a presentation to the task force. When
a fairgoer parks, they would pay the parking fee using the Park Mobile app, website or simply call Park Mobile to enter their vehicle license plate number. The city would pay a low
transaction fee. Parking would continue to be on one side of the street only so emergency vehicles can get through. Parking enforcers would be hired to monitor parking and check that
the vehicle owner had paid the parking fee. If the program gets implemented, it will require a lot of advanced communication and signage. Fortunately, Park Mobile provides signage at
no charge. The task force and council have many decisions to make. Should we roll out e-meter parking in only a few neighborhoods? Should the rate vary by distance to the fair? Should
Falcon Heights residents receive a discount? How will this affect areas where there is permit parking only? The Task force and council members would like residents’ input. There will
be a presentation on emeter parking and a public hearing at the City Council meeting at 7 p.m., Wed., March 26. (include QR code to connect readers with Park Mobile presentation)
E-Meter Parking Revenue During State Fair Events - FAQ Why do we want to charge fair goers to park in our city neighborhoods? Our city has very few means for generating revenue. By
charging a parking fee during the 12 days of the State Fair, we can raise and earmark revenue for a special fund. Perhaps our city could move away from property owners bearing the cost
of major street repairs. What is the projected revenue? Conservative estimates are $100,000 to $200,000 net per State Fair. How will fair goers know they need to pay for parking? A
lot of advance communication and signage will be required. Park Mobile provides the signs at no charge. Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate? We recommend a daily rate, which is
easier to enforce, and fair goers can enjoy their day at the fair without worrying that the e-meter has expired. We propose charging the same daily parking rate as the State Fair ($25).
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds? Or for residents? There are a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates. There could be a discounted rate for residents,
but the overall goal is to generate a new revenue source for the city and improve parking enforcement in the neighborhoods. Will residents need to pay to park? The State Fair Task Force
is still discussing ways to ensure the program is equitable for residents while still meeting needs for financing enforcement and road repairs. This may be form of a complimentary parking
permit (or multiple passes) for residents living on a street with e-meters on their street, or reduced rates for residents purchasing a full 12 day parking permit. How will the city
know whether a person has paid? Park Mobile generates that data and makes it accessible to police and parking enforcers. Will the police issue parking tickets? Fair goers who don’t
pay can be ticketed. We propose having e-meter enforcers so police can focus on traffic and patrolling neighborhoods. How much will it cost our city to implement? There is a minimal
processing fee for each transaction, and there is no capital expense. Park Mobile provides all the signage at no cost. Why Park Mobile? We explored temporary parking meters, but this
is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across Minnesota work with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota
users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website or simply call Park Mobile. Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will
this be handled if we switch to paid parking? The Task Force, council and city staff are considering options. The goal is to be equitable across all neighborhoods. We want to be a welcoming
city. If we charge for parking on our streets, doesn’t that convey we’re not welcoming? Our residential neighborhoods are being used as free public parking during the fair. People are
accustomed to paying for event parking, and we’re confident they will quickly adapt. Why not limit paid parking to neighborhoods closest to the fairgrounds? We know that there will
be a ripple effect – fair goers will look for free parking in adjacent neighborhoods or other areas within the city. Charging for parking throughout can help balance the volume of parked
vehicles throughout the city, or in some instances, serve as a deterrent. Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair? Yes, the pay for street parking areas would
be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency vehicles can get through our neighborhoods. Will the program be full time, year-round? We’re focusing
on parking during the State Fair and other events at the fairgrounds that generate high volume of traffic and parking in neighborhoods, such as the Back to ‘50s car show. How will this
impact neighboring cities? More people may look for free parking spots beyond Falcon Heights. Neighboring cities may want to charge for street parking as well. How will this impact
business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots? We already compete with business properties that sell parking by providing free parking. Will people who have parked
on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger? The city will conduct a communications campaign to get the word out and explain why Falcon Heights has
chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual. REQUEST FOR

is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across Minnesota work with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota
users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website or simply call Park Mobile. Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will
this be handled if we switch to paid parking? The Task Force, council and city staff are considering options. The goal is to be equitable across all neighborhoods. We want to be a welcoming
city. If we charge for parking on our streets, doesn’t that convey we’re not welcoming? Our residential neighborhoods are being used as free public parking during the fair. People are
accustomed to paying for event parking, and we’re confident they will quickly adapt. Why not limit paid parking to neighborhoods closest to the fairgrounds? We know that there will
be a ripple effect – fair goers will look for free parking in adjacent neighborhoods or other areas within the city. Charging for parking throughout can help balance the volume of parked
vehicles throughout the city, or in some instances, serve as a deterrent. Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair? Yes, the pay for street parking areas would
be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency vehicles can get through our neighborhoods. Will the program be full time, year-round? We’re focusing
on parking during the State Fair and other events at the fairgrounds that generate high volume of traffic and parking in neighborhoods, such as the Back to ‘50s car show. How will this
impact neighboring cities? More people may look for free parking spots beyond Falcon Heights. Neighboring cities may want to charge for street parking as well. How will this impact
business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots? We already compete with business properties that sell parking by providing free parking. Will people who have parked
on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger? The city will conduct a communications campaign to get the word out and explain why Falcon Heights has
chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual. REQUEST FOR

Hi Bob,
No worries and thanks for reaching out.
There won't be any striping (or stripping for that matter-- I always have to double check the spelling on that one! 🙂 ), and all signage will be temporary. Essentially each block that
currently has free State Fair Parking would be designated with a zone # (i.e. 1400 Idaho is Zone 53898) and if there is space available, someone could park and pay via phone to input
the zone. It is like parking meters, but in a way it is more similar to buying a permit. We've got more detail in our proposal here starting on Page 8: https://www.falconheights.org/home/showpublish
eddocument/5632/638726290475670000. Additionally, this video does a good job showing how it can work, but ours will be a bit different in that it won't be hourly parking but rather daily

It really won't be super different than it is now, but rather than free parking if someone can find a space, they will need to pay if a space is available. If they park illegally, they
will be ticketed as before, but now we'll have a revenue source to add additional enforcement employees in the neighborhood to free up the police to focus on more serious issues.
Feel free to give me a call sometime if you have more questions!

Hi Robert,
I need your help answering questions.
The thinking is to roll out the e-meter in the Northome and Northeast neighborhoods, the two neighborhoods east of the State Fair.
The task force proposes that residents who live in these neighborhoods may apply for a code. What is the best way to process that request? Do residents come to city hall and request
a code and show proof of residency? Could they apply for a code online?
A council member wants to send a letter to each resident in these neighbors that includes a code they can use.
Our city administrator is proposing residents get one code for free, and then have the option to buy a code that is good for 12-days.
A council describes this as a perk for residents. I view it as loss of revenue of $600 per household.
We definitely need a Park Mobile rep at our March 26 council meeting.
Paula Mielke
Falcon Heights City Council
20250308095934,Paula Mielke paula.mielke@falconheights.org,Rob Stephens rob.stephens@easypark.net_23.eml
Robert,
Could you please review the attached to clarify/correct any info and to answer some questions?
Thank you for your patience.
Paula Mielke
Falcon Heights City Council
Parking Areas
Recommended area for e-meter parking are Northome and Northeast neighborhoods. Best way to describe this to residents: Streets where parking is currently allowed between Snelling and
Hamline, Hoyt and Roselawn.
Inventory of Parking Spaces
We have an inventory of approximately 900 parking spaces. We need to think through how to manage that inventory. How many codes should be given to residents or made available to purchase?
If too many given or sold to residents, is the program even viable? How many codes/spaces can we make available to residents and still have enough inventory to gather data on the program’s
success? And how are we measuring success? Generating revenue needs to be one of the goals to make the program worth implementing.
Parking Fee
Task force recommends charging $25 per space, same as State Fair parking fee. That amount covers fees. Processing and transaction fees per sold space is roughly $5. Net revenue per parking
space is roughly $20.
Issuing Codes
Residents who reside on streets currently permit parking only would receive a code. The code is good for 1 license plate over 12 days. ROBERT – does resident enter code each day? Should
these codes be tied to Zone?
Codes are easier for staff to issue, also easier to have one system and eliminates need to create permits or hang tags. There would be separate code for residents in permit parking only
areas.
Task force recommends offering each resident in Northome and Northeast the opportunity to get one code for free that is good for 1 license plate over 12 days. These codes would be set
up under reservation system to avoid the $1 per day charge to city. Again, weight this decision on number of households and inventory of parking spaces.
The best way to issue codes is in person at city hall so staff confirm can residency and issue code number. Resident can leave with the code or staff can sign up the person on the spot
and resident doesn’t even need to use app/website or make a phone call. Once a code is assigned to a license plate, it’s removed from the list. ROBERT – can more than one employee be
signing up/assigning codes at a time? We have a summer event in July. Could we table at the event and sign up residents there?
Recommendation is to begin issuing codes in July, offer some Saturday hours for residents for residents who can’t stop by during business hours. Last day for issuing codes to residents
is day before State Fair begins.
The task force also recommends offering residents in the area – both in permit parking and on permit parking areas – the opportunity to purchase one additional code that is good for
1 license plate over 12 days. What should be the cost of that second code? How many extra codes should be available to purchase? This decision needs to be based on inventory plus revenue
goals.
Questions for Robert:
What are the reasons to not mail a code to each resident? (Need talking points/explanation).
A council member proposed mailing codes to residents. If city does that, how do we know if resident decides to use the code?
Can a reservation be cancelled? Should we gently ask residents if plans change and they decide to leave town for the duration of fair to cancel reservation to free up a code?
Letter Explaining Program
A letter can be mailed to residents in the parking zones to explain how the program works, how to get a code, etc. Volunteers can help stuff letters.
Zones
SAVPD prefers that their officers issue parking tickets. The e-meter program generates a list of license plates for people who paid to park. It’s best to have divide neighborhoods small
zones, which results in a shorter list of license plates for officers to skim on their phones to check if the parked cars are in compliance.
Checking for compliance/enforcement
Park Mobile recommends officers check each zone 1 to 2 times per hour to monitor for compliance. Number of foot cadets is based on how long it takes to walk through the neighborhoods.
Proposed time for monitoring is 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., divided into three 4-hour shifts (8 to noon, noon to 4, 4 to 8). Officers would work 2 shifts, shifts staggered. Staggered shifts means
officers will have a window to stop at city hall to use a restroom/eat/fill a water bottle. And this is getting way too deep into the weeds but addresses a council member concern.
Fair Ambassadors
If officers are monitoring compliance, are fair ambassadors needed? If task force feels they are needed, what is the role of ambassadors? Could ambassadors be volunteers? And could volunteers/task
force members write the volunteer job description, recruit, train and schedule volunteers? Would there be any need for staff involvement other than getting word out to residents on
city social media platforms and in newsletter? And order t-shirts, which could be a city expense.

Subject: Re: Do you have a few minutes to review?
Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution.
1) The code for the reservation goes into effect once they initiate the parking session. They will only have to initiate the session one time, on the day they purchase the reservation
w/ the code.
2) Residents w/ codes will do reservations where they pay once, all others will do same-day parking where they have to pay each day.
3) The code can be used one time, attached to a single plate. They can cancel, but that won't free up the code for re-use.
4) You want to limit the codes available because the point is to have inventory for visitor parking. Most residents have a driveway, and the public streets require public funds. A visitor
user fee is better (more equitable, etc) than resident taxes/fees as a funding source. If you give all residents a code, then you won't be able to raise revenue to save residents money
and fund crucial public services.
5) You need to operate from a single list of codes so that you can make sure only one code is distributed at a time. It would be easier if there was only one staffer at a time handling
the distribution of the codes so that you don't hand out multiples.
6) You can table at events to sign up residents, as long as you have a way to keep track of the code list.
7) The codes are attached to the special reservation rate. You are using single use codes so that people can't share them.
I think that answers the questions.
Let me know if you have more.

Thanks Georgiana, I'll use the non-annotated version for the packet. From my individual conversations with Council, everyone sounds like they are in a good place with the recommendations
and that there is understanding that both staff and the SFTF can build out solutions to one-off problems or staffing plans over time.
Additionally, attached are the updated FAQs integrating the latest language from the presentation/recent meetings, as well as a draft message we hope to go out today regarding the public
hearing. If anyone has changes, please let me know. Note: links in the message are not live yet, so you will get an error until we have the page up.

Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution.
Hi Jack,
Here's the edited presentation as a PP and a .pdf. I believe I've incorporated all the changes requested.
I ask that you communicate clearly to the Council that the presentation incorporates all the points of agreement from the joint meeting and that were listed in our March 19 meeting packet.
This is a complex effort and we are putting it together for the first time. My feeling is that some tensions that have arisen recently are due to miscommunication and misunderstanding,
not ill-intent, but I do also ask that all Council respect the SFTF efforts.
There are issues that were not resolved at the joint workshop and that have been raised since the joint workshop. In an effort to improve communication between the SFTF, Council and
staff, I have annotated the presentation in the comments section of many of the slides. I suggest that all of you on this email comment on these issues and that the final annotated
version be provided to the Council (only) before the public hearing Council meeting next Wednesday. It's a work in progress.
Thanks,
Georgiana
E-Meter FAQs
Why do we want Fair goers to pay for parking?
To help cover costs of hosting the Fair.
To generate new revenue that will be used to benefit all Falcon Heights residents.
Does e-meter parking mean that we are not a welcoming city?
We still welcome them, charging for parking should not change our attitude toward visitors.
Parking Ambassadors will roam the affected areas and aid Fair-goers.
We hope to improve Fair-goers experience – more porta-potties!
What areas will have e-meter parking and why?
Northome and Northeast quadrants, exclusive of major streets.
On one side of the street, without fire hydrants, where State Fair parking is currently allowed.
These large, contiguous areas are highly impacted by State Fair parking and have more that 800 parking places available.
What is the projected revenue?
Conservative estimates are $100,000 to $200,000 net per State Fair.
How will fair goers know they need to pay for parking?
ParkMobile provides many signs which will be installed throughout designated Parking Zone areas.
We will communicate extensively through a variety of media.
Parking Ambassadors can help.
Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate?
The proposal is a daily rate that expires at 11:59 p.m. each day of the State Fair, which is easier to enforce, and fair goers can enjoy their day at the fair without worrying that the
e-meter has expired. We propose charging the same daily parking rate as the State Fair ($25).
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds? Or for residents?
There are a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates. There could be a discounted rate for residents, but the overall goal is to generate a new revenue source for the city
and improve parking enforcement in the neighborhoods.
Will residents need to pay to park?
All households on a street with e-meters would be eligible to obtain one free resident pass, good for one vehicle to park for up-to all 12 days of the State Fair. These passes would
be available at City Hall, and are registered to the license plate of the vehicle.
How will the city know whether a person has paid?
Park Mobile generates that data and makes it accessible to police and Parking Ambassadors.
How will parking violations be handled?
Law enforcement will ticket cars parked in violation of code or that have failed to pay. Parking fines double during the State Fair.
Vehicles that cause safety hazards will be ticketed and towed.
How much will it cost our city to implement?
There is a processing fee of about 20% for each transaction, and there is no capital expense. Park Mobile provides all the signage at no cost.
Why Park Mobile?
We explored temporary parking meters, but this is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across Minnesota work
with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website, pay by text, or simply call Park Mobile.
Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will this be handled if we switch to paid parking?
No proposed changes to State Fair Parking Permits issued in 2024.
Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair?
Yes, the e-meter parking zones would be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency vehicles can get through our neighborhoods.
Will the program be full time, year-round?The proposal at this time is just for during the Minnesota State Fair. In the future, it may be expanded to other major events that bring visitors
to our streets, such as car shows.
How will this impact neighboring cities?
More people may look for free parking spots beyond Falcon Heights. Neighboring cities may want to charge for street parking as well.
How will this impact business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots?
We already compete with business properties that sell parking by providing free parking.
Will people who have parked on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger?
The city will conduct a communications campaign to get the word out and explain why Falcon Heights has chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t
reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual.
The Falcon Heights City Council will host a public hearing on Wednesday, March 26th at 7PM in the Council Chambers of City Hall (2077 Larpenteur Ave W.) to consider an ordinance change
allowing the use of e-meters on certain city streets during the Minnesota State Fair.
The plan as proposed by the State Fair Task Force would be:
Implementation of e-meter parking zones during the Minnesota State Fair on certain streets in the Northeast Quadrant neighborhood (Snelling to Hamline, Roselawn to Larpenteur), and Northome
neighborhood (Snelling to Hamline, Larpenteur to Hoyt). The e-meters will be on the non-hydrant sides of streets where there is currently no State Fair parking restrictions, as identified
on the map.
The City would contract with ParkMobile, the largest parking management vendor in Minnesota, to collect revenue without the need for physical meters or payment kiosks in the neighborhoods.
ParkMobile would supply the City of Falcon Heights signage that city crews would install on e-metered streets.
Visitors would be charged $25 per day to park on these streets, using ParkMobile’s app, pay-by-text, or pay-by-phone options.
The City of Falcon Heights would net approximately $20 per parking visit, with a revenue estimate of $100,000 to $200,000 annually. These funds would be invested in City infrastructure
projects to lower the property tax burden on residents.
Residents living on streets with e-meter parking will have the opportunity to get a resident pass, good for one vehicle to park on the street for all 12 days of the Fair.
The City would hire Parking Ambassadors to ensure compliance with parking restrictions, as well as serve as a resource to visitors looking for information. The Parking Ambassadors would
report vehicles parked without paying their meter to law enforcement, who would issue tickets to illegally parked vehicles.
More details on the proposal, including frequently asked questions and additional information, is available at
http://www.falconheights.org/e-meterparkingwww.falconheights.org/e-meterparking.
Parties interested in voicing their opinion on the proposal may attend the public hearing, or submit written testimony by mail to City Hall prior to the public hearing, or email to
mailto:mail@falconheights.orgmail@falconheights.org.

City Council and State Fair Task Force,
First, I want to thank everyone for engaged participation in our public hearing last night. For task force members that weren't able to attend, the ordinance adopting e-meters and resolution
supporting contracting with Park Mobile were both approved unanimously after lengthy dialogue. We had great turnout with 80+ attendees, 34 speakers at public comment, 18 written comments
prior to 4:30PM and another few submitted online during the meeting and in to this morning. I believe I can speak for the group when I say how refreshing it was that no matter the personal
stance of the speakers, most everyone in the audience clapped for the courage of their neighbors to share their voice. I've been through my fair share of public hearings working for
three different cities, and I can't say I've ever seen such civility despite disagreements. If you want to watch, video of the meeting is here and the topic starts at about 22:30: https://webstreami
ng.ctv15.org/viewer.php?streamid=7693
As a note, the local news stations are picking up on the story and I'd expect more to follow. KSTP did an interview here at City Hall that will air tonight at either 5PM or 6PM, and
Channel 9 has been out interviewing people walking in the neighborhoods. I provided talking points to both journalists, and they seem to have a good grasp on what has occurred to date
and what is still left to be formally adopted.
Feel free to reach out with questions or if you are contacted for comment.

Hi Alice,
My apologies, I missed that email in the string of emails going but see it now. I'm so sorry to hear about your health challenges and schedule conflicts.
Could you submit a formal resignation that we can include in our April 9th city council packet for adoption? It doesn't have to be anything lengthy, and if you prefer I can use your
email from 3/20 as the official resignation letter.
Take care!
Jack

Could you submit a formal resignation that we can include in our April 9th city council packet for adoption? It doesn't have to be anything lengthy, and if you prefer I can use your
email from 3/20 as the official resignation letter.
Take care!
Jack

City Council and State Fair Task Force,
First, I want to thank everyone for engaged participation in our public hearing last night. For task force members that weren't able to attend, the ordinance adopting e-meters and resolution
supporting contracting with Park Mobile were both approved unanimously after lengthy dialogue. We had great turnout with 80+ attendees, 34 speakers at public comment, 18 written comments
prior to 4:30PM and another few submitted online during the meeting and in to this morning. I believe I can speak for the group when I say how refreshing it was that no matter the personal
stance of the speakers, most everyone in the audience clapped for the courage of their neighbors to share their voice. I've been through my fair share of public hearings working for
three different cities, and I can't say I've ever seen such civility despite disagreements. If you want to watch, video of the meeting is here and the topic starts at about 22:30: https://webstreami

As a note, the local news stations are picking up on the story and I'd expect more to follow. KSTP did an interview here at City Hall that will air tonight at either 5PM or 6PM, and
Channel 9 has been out interviewing people walking in the neighborhoods. I provided talking points to both journalists, and they seem to have a good grasp on what has occurred to date
and what is still left to be formally adopted.

Hi Jack
I agree with you here but sorry to say, we need some damage control. Please send an additional email correcting the Fox 9 story.
Fox9 put out a story that we had already decided on one pass per household. I ran into some folks in my neighborhood and they felt betrayed- that their efforts were worthless.
Just then, a Fox9 guy pulled up and wanted to talk. We showed him the issue and he did seem to understand. I asked him to have Fox9 issue a correction.
Please send out a correction to FH. It might help to simply explain the difference between the contract and the details- eg - the contract is with PM but does not specify how we use
the 862 spots.

Hi Georgiana,
I spoke to the Fox9 reporter Robert Olson as well and they are working on a correction to the first story. The first story came out from their news desk editor, who got the story from
watching the meeting but without interviewing us. The 5PM video report clarified, and I'm working with them to fix the editor's report.

E-Meter Proposal Public Hearing Recap & Updated FAQ
The Falcon Heights City Council hosted a public hearing on Wednesday, March 26th at 7PM. Over 80 residents attended the public hearing, with 34 residents providing public comment and
over 20 residents submitting written comments. The Falcon Heights City Council was extremely appreciative of the civility in which neighbors supported each other as they heard differing
opinions on the topic. The full
https://webstreaming.ctv15.org/viewer.php?streamid=7693video from the public hearing is available here starting at the 22:30 minute mark.
Following the public hearing and lengthy discussion, the City Council took the following actions:
Approved an ordinance that modifies city code to allow for e-meters.
Authorized approving a contract with ParkMobile to be the vendor to provide e-meters.
The City Council and the State Fair Task Force will use the testimony from residents on the impacts the original proposal could have on their households to build a plan that addresses
the needs and concerns of residents. The following items have not been voted on, and need future action and further consideration:
How many resident passes each household will get, and who is eligible for the passes.
Whether resident passes are tied to a license plate, or whether they are e-passes or physical passes.
Which streets or neighborhoods are designated for e-meter parking, and when the e-meters would be in effect.
The amount visitors pay to use the e-meters.
These items will all require future action by the City Council as the plan is continued to be built out.
An updated FAQ and additional information is available here:
https://www.falconheights.org/residents/parking/state-fair-parkinghttps://www.falconheights.org/residents/parking/state-fair-parking
E-Meter FAQs (UPDATED 3/27/25)
What action did the City Council take at the March 26th City Council meeting?
Following the public hearing, the City Council unanimously approved two motions at the March 26th City Council meeting:
Approved Ordinance 25-01 which modifies Chapter 46 of City Code to include Sec 46-29 Establishment of Parking Zones using electronic payment systems (e-meters).
Approved Resolution 25-25 which authorizes the ParkMobile to serve as the vendor for e-meter parking.
Did resident testimony during the public hearing make any impact on the proposal?
Yes, City Council Members commented during discussion that resident concerns need to be further evaluated in the next steps, which will include:
Amending the Administrative Manual Section on Parking (better known as the State Fair Guidelines—no lawn parking/vendors allowed, no hydrant side parking, etc.) to clarify:
How many resident passes each impacted household would be eligible for, and who would be eligible.
How passes will be distributed, and in what format they will be (i.e. e-passes, hang tags or other).
Whether passes are tied to a license plate or are in another format.
Adopting an annual resolution specifying where e-meter parking will be implemented, and during which times it is in effect.
Amending the fee schedule to set the rate for visitors parking.
Adjusting the annual budget to reflect the projected revenues and expenses for the program.
Did City Council approve authorizing one pass per household?
This has not been voted on yet. City Council will continue to review the testimony provided and work with the State Fair Task Force to consider modifications of the plan as originally
presented.
When is the next discussion on e-meters?
City Council will discuss the feedback from the public hearing as well as the next steps at their workshop meeting on Wednesday, April 2nd at 6:30 p.m. This will be a live streamed meeting
available
https://webstreaming.ctv15.org/typeview.php?regionid=97&typeid=1here.
Why do we want Fair goers to pay for parking?
To help cover costs of hosting the Fair.
To generate new revenue that will be used to benefit all Falcon Heights residents.
Does e-meter parking mean that we are not a welcoming city?
We still welcome them, charging for parking should not change our attitude toward visitors.
Parking Ambassadors will roam the affected areas and aid Fair-goers.
We hope to improve Fair-goers experience – more porta-potties!
What areas will have e-meter parking and why?
This has not been voted on yet. The proposal includes the Northome and Northeast quadrants, exclusive of major streets.
On one side of the street, without fire hydrants, where State Fair parking is currently allowed.
These large, contiguous areas are highly impacted by State Fair parking and have more than 800 parking places available.
What is the projected revenue?
Conservative estimates are $100,000 to $200,000 net per State Fair.
How will fair goers know they need to pay for parking?
ParkMobile provides many signs which will be installed throughout designated Parking Zone areas.
We will communicate extensively through a variety of media.
Parking Ambassadors can help.
Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate?
The proposal is a daily rate that expires at 11:59 p.m. each day of the State Fair, which is easier to enforce, and fair goers can enjoy their day at the fair without worrying that the
e-meter has expired.
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds? Or for residents?
There are a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates. There could be a discounted rate for residents, but the overall goal is to generate a new revenue source for the city
and improve parking enforcement in the neighborhoods.
Will residents need to pay to park?
All households on a street with e-meters would be eligible to obtain one free resident pass, good for one vehicle to park for up-to all 12 days of the State Fair. These passes would
be available at City Hall, and are registered to the license plate of the vehicle.
How will the city know whether a person has paid?
Park Mobile generates that data and makes it accessible to police and Parking Ambassadors.
How will parking violations be handled?
Law enforcement will ticket cars parked in violation of code or that have failed to pay. Parking fines double during the State Fair.
Vehicles that cause safety hazards will be ticketed and towed.
How much will it cost our city to implement?
There is a processing fee of about 20% for each transaction, and there is no capital expense. Park Mobile provides all the signage at no cost.
Why Park Mobile?
We explored temporary parking meters, but this is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across Minnesota work
with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website, pay by text, or simply call Park Mobile.
Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will this be handled if we switch to paid parking?
No proposed changes to State Fair Parking Permits issued in 2024.
Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair?
Yes, the e-meter parking zones would be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency vehicles can get through our neighborhoods.
Will the program be full time, year-round?
The proposal at this time is just for during the Minnesota State Fair. In the future, it may be expanded to other major events that bring visitors to our streets, such as car shows.
Will e-meter signs be up all year long?
Staff’s plan is to install signs prior to the Minnesota State Fair and remove them following the 12 days each year. While this does create additional work for staff, we feel it is important
not to confuse motorists and add additional signage in the neighborhoods when not in use.
How will this impact neighboring cities?
More people may look for free parking spots beyond Falcon Heights. Neighboring cities may want to charge for street parking as well.
How will this impact business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots?
We already compete with business properties that sell parking by providing free parking.
Will people who have parked on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger?
The city will conduct a communications campaign to get the word out and explain why Falcon Heights has chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t
reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual.

What action did the City Council take at the March 26th City Council meeting?
Following the public hearing, the City Council unanimously approved two motions at the March 26th City Council meeting:
Approved Ordinance 25-01 which modifies Chapter 46 of City Code to include Sec 46-29 Establishment of Parking Zones using electronic payment systems (e-meters).
Approved Resolution 25-25 which authorizes the ParkMobile to serve as the vendor for e-meter parking.
Did resident testimony during the public hearing make any impact on the proposal?
Yes, City Council Members commented during discussion that resident concerns need to be further evaluated in the next steps, which will include:
Amending the Administrative Manual Section on Parking (better known as the State Fair Guidelines—no lawn parking/vendors allowed, no hydrant side parking, etc.) to clarify:
How many resident passes each impacted household would be eligible for, and who would be eligible.
How passes will be distributed, and in what format they will be (i.e. e-passes, hang tags or other).
Whether passes are tied to a license plate or are in another format.
Adopting an annual resolution specifying where e-meter parking will be implemented, and during which times it is in effect.
Amending the fee schedule to set the rate for visitors parking.
Adjusting the annual budget to reflect the projected revenues and expenses for the program.
Did City Council approve authorizing one pass per household?
This has not been voted on yet. City Council will continue to review the testimony provided and work with the State Fair Task Force to consider modifications of the plan as originally
presented.
When is the next discussion on e-meters?
City Council will discuss the feedback from the public hearing as well as the next steps at their workshop meeting on Wednesday, April 2nd at 6:30 p.m. This will be a live streamed meeting
available
https://webstreaming.ctv15.org/typeview.php?regionid=97&typeid=1here.
Why do we want Fair goers to pay for parking?
To help cover costs of hosting the Fair.
To generate new revenue that will be used to benefit all Falcon Heights residents.
Does e-meter parking mean that we are not a welcoming city?
We still welcome them, charging for parking should not change our attitude toward visitors.
Parking Ambassadors will roam the affected areas and aid Fair-goers.
We hope to improve Fair-goers experience – more porta-potties!
What areas will have e-meter parking and why?
This has not been voted on yet. The proposal includes the Northome and Northeast quadrants, exclusive of major streets.
On one side of the street, without fire hydrants, where State Fair parking is currently allowed.
These large, contiguous areas are highly impacted by State Fair parking and have more than 800 parking places available.
What is the projected revenue?
Conservative estimates are $100,000 to $200,000 net per State Fair.
How will fair goers know they need to pay for parking?
ParkMobile provides many signs which will be installed throughout designated Parking Zone areas.
We will communicate extensively through a variety of media.
Parking Ambassadors can help.
Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate?
The proposal is a daily rate that expires at 11:59 p.m. each day of the State Fair, which is easier to enforce, and fair goers can enjoy their day at the fair without worrying that the
e-meter has expired.
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds? Or for residents?
There are a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates. There could be a discounted rate for residents, but the overall goal is to generate a new revenue source for the city
and improve parking enforcement in the neighborhoods.
Will residents need to pay to park?
All households on a street with e-meters would be eligible to obtain one free resident pass, good for one vehicle to park for up-to all 12 days of the State Fair. These passes would
be available at City Hall, and are registered to the license plate of the vehicle.
How will the city know whether a person has paid?
Park Mobile generates that data and makes it accessible to police and Parking Ambassadors.
How will parking violations be handled?
Law enforcement will ticket cars parked in violation of code or that have failed to pay. Parking fines double during the State Fair.
Vehicles that cause safety hazards will be ticketed and towed.
How much will it cost our city to implement?
There is a processing fee of about 20% for each transaction, and there is no capital expense. Park Mobile provides all the signage at no cost.
Why Park Mobile?
We explored temporary parking meters, but this is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across Minnesota work
with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website, pay by text, or simply call Park Mobile.
Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will this be handled if we switch to paid parking?
No proposed changes to State Fair Parking Permits issued in 2024.
Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair?
Yes, the e-meter parking zones would be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency vehicles can get through our neighborhoods.
Will the program be full time, year-round?
The proposal at this time is just for during the Minnesota State Fair. In the future, it may be expanded to other major events that bring visitors to our streets, such as car shows.
Will e-meter signs be up all year long?
Staff’s plan is to install signs prior to the Minnesota State Fair and remove them following the 12 days each year. While this does create additional work for staff, we feel it is important
not to confuse motorists and add additional signage in the neighborhoods when not in use.
How will this impact neighboring cities?
More people may look for free parking spots beyond Falcon Heights. Neighboring cities may want to charge for street parking as well.
How will this impact business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots?
We already compete with business properties that sell parking by providing free parking.
Will people who have parked on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger?
The city will conduct a communications campaign to get the word out and explain why Falcon Heights has chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t
reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual.

Thanks. Sending out an email to FH would help also. That way, you could emphasize how we _were_ listening so no way did the contract specify this feature.

Hi Georgiana,
I spoke to the Fox9 reporter Robert Olson as well and they are working on a correction to the first story. The first story came out from their news desk editor, who got the story from
watching the meeting but without interviewing us. The 5PM video report clarified, and I'm working with them to fix the editor's report.

Hi Jack
I agree with you here but sorry to say, we need some damage control. Please send an additional email correcting the Fox 9 story.
Fox9 put out a story that we had already decided on one pass per household. I ran into some folks in my neighborhood and they felt betrayed- that their efforts were worthless.
Just then, a Fox9 guy pulled up and wanted to talk. We showed him the issue and he did seem to understand. I asked him to have Fox9 issue a correction.
Please send out a correction to FH. It might help to simply explain the difference between the contract and the details- eg - the contract is with PM but does not specify how we use
the 862 spots.

City Council and State Fair Task Force,
First, I want to thank everyone for engaged participation in our public hearing last night. For task force members that weren't able to attend, the ordinance adopting e-meters and resolution
supporting contracting with Park Mobile were both approved unanimously after lengthy dialogue. We had great turnout with 80+ attendees, 34 speakers at public comment, 18 written comments
prior to 4:30PM and another few submitted online during the meeting and in to this morning. I believe I can speak for the group when I say how refreshing it was that no matter the personal
stance of the speakers, most everyone in the audience clapped for the courage of their neighbors to share their voice. I've been through my fair share of public hearings working for
three different cities, and I can't say I've ever seen such civility despite disagreements. If you want to watch, video of the meeting is here and the topic starts at about 22:30: https://webstreami
ng.ctv15.org/viewer.php?streamid=7693
As a note, the local news stations are picking up on the story and I'd expect more to follow. KSTP did an interview here at City Hall that will air tonight at either 5PM or 6PM, and
Channel 9 has been out interviewing people walking in the neighborhoods. I provided talking points to both journalists, and they seem to have a good grasp on what has occurred to date
and what is still left to be formally adopted.
Feel free to reach out with questions or if you are contacted for comment.

Thank you everyone for great feedback. Attached is a version of the email that incorporates feedback from the responses I've received, which shortens the message and addresses concerns
to more specifically reference the media's incorrect reporting on whether the Task Force plan was adopted. I also modified the FAQ slightly with feedback that should incorporate everyone's

E-Meter Proposal Public Hearing Recap & Updated FAQ The Falcon Heights City Council hosted a public hearing on Wed., March 26, on a proposed change to an ordinance that would allow the
use of e-meters on certain streets during the Minnesota State Fair. During the meeting, our State Fair Task Force shared a proposal to help residents understand how e-meter parking
could be implemented in the city during the Fair. Unfortunately, some media incorrectly reported that the Task Force proposal was voted on and approved by the council. That’s not true.
The council voted to approve an ordinance to modify city code to allow for e-meters. Adopting the ordinance was an important step to continue the discussion of e-meter parking. The
council also voted to authorize a contract with ParkMobile to be a vendor to provide emeters. More than 80 residents attended the public hearing. Thirty-four residents provided public
comment at the meeting and more than 20 submitted written comment. The City Council and State Fair Task Force value the input from residents and will use that to develop a formal plan
that will be voted on by the City Council at a future meeting. The full video from the public hearing is available here starting at the 22:30 minute mark. An updated FAQ and additional
information is available here: https://www.falconheights.org/residents/parking/state-fair-parking

Hi All,
Unfortunately I'm running in to technical difficulties in having the email go out. I've been trying since 10:30, but I can't figure out where it's going wrong.
I'll circle up with Elke in the morning, who is much better with the backend of the website than I, and see if the two of us can get something out at a more reasonable hour.
In the interim, the page on e-meters has been updated to include the updated version of the message: https://www.falconheights.org/residents/parking/state-fair-parking
If you have other changes, feel free to send and we can try to incorporate before it gets sent in the morning.
Thank you everyone for the feedback.

Why do we want Fair goers to pay for parking?
“Free Parking” is not really ‘free’.
To help cover costs of hosting the Fairt hat are currently, and historically, not recognized by the governing body of State Fair.
Any new revenue will be used to benefit all Falcon Heights residents.
Does e-meter parking mean that we are not a welcoming city?
We will continue to welcome fair-goers, charging for parking should not change our attitude toward visitors.
Parking Ambassadors will roam the affected areas and aid Fair-goers while they navigate our neighborhoods.
We hope to improve Fair-goers experience – more porta-potties, trash cans and services!
What areas will have e-meter parking and why?
This has not been voted on yet. The proposal includes the Northome and Northeast quadrants, exclusive of major streets.
On one side of the street, without fire hydrants, where State Fair parking is currently allowed.
These large, contiguous areas are currently highly impacted by State Fair parking and have more than 800 parking places available.
What is the projected revenue?
Conservative estimates are $100,000 to $200,000 net per State Fair.
How will fair goers know they need to pay for parking?
ParkMobile provides many temporary signs which will be installed throughout designated Parking Zone areas.
We will communicate extensively through a variety of media.
Parking Ambassadors can directly help via personal interaction with visitors.
Will we charge a daily rate? Hourly rate?
The proposal is a daily rate that expires at 11:59 p.m. each day of the State Fair, which is easier to enforce, and fair goers can enjoy their day at the fair without worrying that the
e-meter has expired.
Could rates vary, based on proximity to the fairgrounds? Or for residents?
There are a lot of options via Park Mobile to set different rates. There could be a discounted rate for residents, but the overall goal is to generate a new revenue source for the city
and improve parking rule compliance in our neighborhoods.
Will residents need to pay to park? (edited before my typing okay)
All households on a street with e-meters would be eligible to obtain one free resident pass, good for one vehicle to park for up-to all 12 days of the State Fair. These passes would
be available at City Hall, and are registered to the license plate of the vehicle.
How will the city know whether a person has paid?
Park Mobile generates that data and makes it accessible to police and Parking Ambassadors.
Cyber security and MN Data Practice protocols will be fully accounted for.
How will parking violations be handled?
Law enforcement will ticket cars parked in violation of code or that have failed to pay. Current policy that parking fines double during the State Fair will continue.
Vehicles that cause safety hazards will be ticketed and towed, in accordance with historical policy and practice.
How much will it cost our city to implement?
There is a processing fee of about 20% for each transaction, and there is no capital expense. Park Mobile provides all the signage at no cost.
All administrative and staffing costs will be covered by revenues. At this exploration stage the numbers are being calculated along with the policy considerations and will be discussed
as much transparency as possible.
Why Park Mobile?
We explored temporary parking meters, but this is a much easier option. Many people are familiar with using apps to pay for parking in city lots. Several cities across Minnesota work
with Park Mobile, and there are 1.5 million Minnesota users. People who don’t want to install an app can pay via the Park Mobile website, pay by text, or simply call Park Mobile.
Some of our streets are permit parking only during the fair. How will this be handled if we switch to paid parking?
No proposed changes to State Fair Parking Permits issued in 2024.
Will streets continue be parking on one-side only during the fair?
Yes, the e-meter parking zones would be where we currently allow parking during the fair. We need to ensure emergency vehicles can get through our neighborhoods.
Will the program be full time, year-round?
The proposal at this time is just for during the 2025 Minnesota State Fair. In the future, it may be expanded to other major events that bring visitors to our streets, such as car shows.
This is an event specific proposal - NOT year-round.
Will e-meter signs be up all year long?
No. Staff’s plan is to install signs prior to the Minnesota State Fair and remove them following the 12 days each year. While this does create additional work for staff, we feel it is
important not to confuse motorists and add additional signage in the neighborhoods when not in use.
How will this impact neighboring cities?
More people may look for free parking spots beyond Falcon Heights. Neighboring cities may choose to charge for street parking as well to cover their costs incurred due to the State Fair.
How will this impact business properties in our city that sell parking in their lots?
We already compete with business properties that sell parking by providing free parking.
The city collecting parking revenue will likely have no adverse impact on our business parking revenues.
Will people who have parked on our streets for years when attending the fair be angry? Take out that anger?
We trust not. Paying for event parking in residential areas near large regional attractions is not unusual in communities throughout Minnesota and the nation.
The city will conduct a communications campaign to get the word out and explain why Falcon Heights has chosen to charge for parking on our neighborhood streets. We realize that won’t
reach everyone. There will be a lot of signage. Paying for event parking isn’t unusual.

Public Comment and Next Steps Description The City Council hosted a public hearing on Weds, March 26th that was well attended and provided insight in to community needs regarding the
proposal for e-meter parking. The City Council is asked to review the public comment and provide direction on how to approach the next steps that would be required. Those may include:

many resident passes each impacted household would be eligible for, and who would be eligible. How passes will be distributed, and in what format they will be (i.e. e-passes, hang
tags, or other). Whether passes are tied to a license plate or are in another format. 2. Adopting an annual resolution specifying where e-meter parking will be implemented, and during
which times it is in effect. 3. Amending the fee schedule to set the rate for visitor parking. 4. Adjusting the annual budget to reflect the projected revenues and expenses for the
program. Following direction from City Council, staff will work with the State Fair Task Force to discuss updates to the proposal for their April 16th meeting. Budget Impact N/A Attachment(s)

staff has developed an updated section of the City of Falcon Heights Administrative Manual outlining formal policies and procedures related to city commissions. This new section, Administrative

which times it is in effect. 3. Amending the fee schedule to set the rate for visitor parking. 4. Adjusting the annual budget to reflect the projected revenues and expenses for the

staff has developed an updated section of the City of Falcon Heights Administrative Manual outlining formal policies and procedures related to city commissions. This new section, Administrative

Hi Eric,
Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.
Scenarios
Passes limited to 400 passes, tied to license tags, residents must obtain passes in person.
Projected net Revenue: $258,392
Pro’s:
Maximum revenue
Residents do not need to utilize PM app
Cons:
Counter to Resident feedback saying one pass was not enough
Counter to Resident feedback saying pass should not be tied to individual vehicles
Possibility of competition among residents for limited passes
Possibility of lines at city hall of residents worried that they might not receive one of the limited passes
Possibility of lines at city hall near end of pass acquisition period
Staff time to process passes in person.
Resident time and inconvenience to visit city hall.
Residents complaints to have to pay for parking $25 per use for each vehicle for those for whom passes aren’t available.
Passes limited to one for each household, tied to license tags, residents must obtain passes in person. Assume 80% acquisition rate
Projected net revenue: $254,124 (1.7% decrease)
Pros:
Each household is guaranteed a pass if they want one.
Residents do not need to utilize PM app
Cons:
Counter to Resident feedback saying one pass was not enough
Counter to Resident feedback saying pass should not be tied to individual vehicles
Staff time to process passes in person.
Possibility of lines at city hall near end of pass acquisition period
Resident time and inconvenience to visit city hall.
May cause some residents to have to pay for parking during the fair.
Resident complaints about having to pay for parking $25 per use beyond second vehicle.
Resident frustration and complaints
Passes limited to two per household. Tied to license tags, residents must obtain passes in person. First is free, second is $25. Assume 80% acquisition rate for first pass, 30% acquisition
rate for second pass
Projected revenue $244,351 (5.4% decrease)
Pros:
Each household is guaranteed up to two passes if they want them.
Residents do not need to utilize PM app
Cons:
Counter to Resident feedback saying pass should not be tied to individual vehicles
Staff time to process passes in person.
Possibility of lines at city hall near end of pass acquisition period
Resident time and inconvenience to visit city hall.
Resident complaints about having to pay for parking $25 per use beyond second vehicle.
Resident complaints about having to pay for parking that used to be free.
Mail out a code to each household with option to come in to city hall to obtain one more additional code for free. Passes not tied to license tag. Assume 100% acquisition rate of first
pass, 40% acquisition rate for second pass.
Projected Revenue: $234,577 (9.3% decrease)
Pros:
Each household is guaranteed up to two passes if they want them.
Residents don’t have to move their car onto the street to allow a guest to park.
Cons:
Staff time to process passes in person (though reduced compared to options above)
Resident time and inconvenience to visit city hall. (though reduced compared to options above)
Resident complaints about having to pay for parking $25 per use beyond second vehicle.
Resident complaints about having to pay for parking that used to be free.
All residents will need to utilize the PM app or otherwise register in the system each time they park.
Possibility of electronic fraud by selling of codes.
Mail a hangtag to each household with option to call city hall or fill out an electronic form to obtain up to two more hangtags to be mailed to residence. Assume 100% acquisition rate
of first pass, 80% acquisition rate for second pass and third pass combined.
Projected Revenue: $221,546 (14.3% decrease)
Pros:
Each household is guaranteed up to three passes if they want them.
Resident costs for parking their own cars or guest’s cars should be very rare.
Residents don’t have to move their car onto the street to allow a guest to park.
No residents required to make a trip to city hall to acquire passes.
No residents required to use the PM app.
Staff can process pass requests in batches with maximum efficiency.
Staff will not need to use the PM app to process passes nor incur the $1 per pass PM fee.
Ambassadors will not have to check license tags of residents or their guests, increasing enforcement speed/efficiency by 20%.
Cons:
Possibility of fraud by selling of hangtags. Could be reduced by residence specific ID written on tags (Ex: CA1446A)
Revenue assumptions for all scenarios:
Current (non-fair time) parking usage by residents is accounted for.
Average 80% space utilization
Utilized spaces will be used twice per day.
Average pass will be used 3 times for residents’ guests.
City receives $20.20 per Park Mobile purchase
Important notes:
The model over estimates the cost of providing additional passes. The revenue calculations above assume that more passes issued, equals more usage of passes always at the same frequency
per pass. This is probably not accurate since second and third passes in a household will not be utilized as much as the first pass.
All revenue is net revenue after costs.
All scenarios use same project costs though these costs are lower for scenarios farther down the list.
Additional passes and uses of passes by residents and their guests should not be considered a cost, as it is currently the right of residents to park on the street as much as they want
for free, and we should strive to preserve this right.

Hi Jim and Eric,
Nice work on this!
I think the best course of action would be to request we go over the ppt at the workshop, and I could bring it up and you could present. It's a great presentation but without context
it likely will cause even more confusion in the media, as all eyes are on scanning our packets without talking to us.
Additionally, there isn't consensus yet on direction of how to proceed and whether this is council or SFTF, so your first order of business would be to convince a third member you want
to talk more about specifics Wednesday, as I've gotten a request in the opposite to not talk about this, so as I seek direction I'm at 2-1 and need to talk to the other two council
members before I do add it.
For the presentation itself, there are a few suggestions I'd make just in regards to how to Park Mobile digital passes would work. They wouldn't need to be entered daily as it would
be a "permit" that's good for 12 days once the code is activated. If we activated the code at City Hall they'd never even know what their code is, whereas if we send it it would be
like receiving a gift card confirmation code that they would enter and have their vehicle good. The alternative is we could send 12 daily passes, which could be used for friends/family
as one time use, but those still cost $1 per code so something to consider. This may be what it's referring to and if so that makes sense, I'd just clarify it a bit.
Jack

Hi Eric,
Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,

Dear Members of the City Council and City Administrator:
I regret that I was not able to attend the Public Hearing on 3/26 regarding the pay-for parking proposal for Falcon Heights. I wish to submit my comments now, and I hope they will be
added to the accumulating number of comments from residents who oppose this proposal.
I have lived at 1784 Simpson Street for 34 years. In our household we are fans of the Fair, and enjoy welcoming visitors to grab a free parking spot on our street and nearby streets.
We have never once had our driveway blocked, and see just a small increase in trash on the street--primarily cigarette butts. For us, it's fun to see how many cars are parked on our
neighboring streets each day of the Fair, and thereby guess what the attendance might be.
I watched the entire hearing on video, so I won't belabor the excellent arguments made by my fellow residents. After hearing their comments, and the clarifying statements from council
members, I feel I have a good perspective about where this proposal is headed, so I do want to make a few points:
1. My main objection to this proposal is the cost of social disapproval to our city. Given the strong reaction on social media to erroneous media reports that the plan to charge for
parking was already approved, I think anyone can agree that this is not going to be a popular move. I understand that the City wishes to be compensated for the cost of hosting the Fair
(more on that below), but this move is using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Charging for parking will disgruntle our visitors. We can't be welcoming and have our hand out for a $25
parking fee at the same time. I'm firmly in the camp of other Falcon Heights residents who think this proposal is greedy and will change the mood of the neighborhoods that are used
to having Fair visitors park on their streets.
2. The Council seems to have already decided. After watching the meeting, I see why several media outlets reported that the proposal for pay parking will go forward. I didn't get a sense
from any member of the council that they were concerned about opposition to charging for parking. They seemed more concerned about the logistics of free permits for residents and placement
of signage. Did you not hear the gracious comments from people who don't want to add to the cost of Fair attendance for those who really count on a FREE place to park?
What I saw in the hearing was an example of confirmation bias. I think members of the council dismissed the comments in opposition, and only focussed on those who praised them for coming
up with another revenue stream.
3. The financials of this proposal are really "squishy," especially given the potential social cost. Based on what Mr. Linehan said about costs of hosting the Fair, it seems the city
really is looking for a small amount of money to cover soft costs, such as more trash barrels, some additional sanitation service, and porta-potties. I agree that the Fair should subsidize
these needs. I understand they are unlikely to do that. But it seems we don't really need to come up with $100,000-$200,000 every year to cover the soft costs. The hard costs Mr. Linehan
mentioned seem to already be budgeted for. If we foresee a need to cover these in the future with new revenue, then I would like to hear a better needs-based argument about this.
Mr. Linehan stated that projected net revenue from the pay parking is difficult to pinpoint, given that it is unknown how many times a spot will turn over in a day. This is fair. But,
in light of this, I would urge an even more conservative estimate of net revenue. At one point Mr. Linehan stated that revenue could be as low as $75,000-$100,000. In my opinion, such
a small amount is not worth the effort and guaranteed social disapproval.
If you vary the rates based on the distance of the parking spot from the Fair, this is going to decrease the potential revenue even more.
4. If you vote to approve this, do not do a three-year contract for a service with so many unknowns.
5. Parking Ambassadors. I am not at all reassured that Parking Ambassadors will make this a better experience for Fair visitors by "helping them" with their parking. First, who would
want to do this job? Ambassadors is a cute name, but really they are Parking Enforcement Assistants. They will be welcoming people into our neighborhoods by "helping" them figure out
how to use the Park Mobile App so they can pay $25 for what used to be a fee parking spot. And then they can "help" them by telling them it's about a mile walk to the Fair gates.
Finding anyone who has the customer service skills to make people feel welcome in these circumstances is going to be a challenge. It's unlikely that a short-term worker who has no affinity
for our city will represent us well.
6. You Can't Have it Both Ways. I feel that those who are in support of this proposal think it will solve traffic and safety issues. If the parking rate is a deterrent to visitors,
then it might actually do that. But if people don't park, then the city doesn't get the expected revenue, so you lose your main goal for the effort.
If you want safety and less traffic, move to permit only parking during the Fair. Give permits to residents and keep everyone else out. No more trash, no more need for porta-potties,
no more extra wear and tear on the streets. I would honestly rather see that than an ill-conceived money grab. (But still, let the people park for FREE!)
7. Messaging. Finally, I would like to say it was really disappointing that the City lost control of the messaging following the 3/26 hearing. Making big changes like pay for parking
requires very controlled communication. The fact that several media outlets reported that pay parking WILL HAPPEN is evidence that communication is not being well-managed. Now whether
you do or do not vote to have pay parking, you have to fix the garbled messaging that already reached the public.
I understand there are many challenges to your jobs as elected officials. I appreciate your service, and the time commitment of the State Fair Task Force. I strongly believe you should
not underestimate the impact this decision will have on the character of our city and its neighborhoods. I don't believe this is a "let's give it a whirl and see how it goes" kind of
decision. Please do not discount those who oppose this idea.
Respectfully,
Laurie Frattallone

Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.

Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that

I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.

Hi Jack, Did you get a chance to check on how many of the parking spots are located just in northome, and similarly, how many of the eligible households are in northome? I wanted to
run a northome only scenario to get a better idea of the absolute bottom of reasonable revenue expectations. (Since we can pretty well assume that nh will be parked up, but we are
less sure about the % utilization of spots north of larpenteur)

Subject: Re: scenarios.
Hi Jack, Did you get a chance to check on how many of the parking spots are located just in northome, and similarly, how many of the eligible households are in northome? I wanted to
run a northome only scenario to get a better idea of the absolute bottom of reasonable revenue expectations. (Since we can pretty well assume that nh will be parked up, but we are
less sure about the % utilization of spots north of larpenteur)
Thanks,
Jim

That sounds good. I'll make some tweaks and send you a new version.

Hi Jim and Eric,
Nice work on this!
I think the best course of action would be to request we go over the ppt at the workshop, and I could bring it up and you could present. It's a great presentation but without context
it likely will cause even more confusion in the media, as all eyes are on scanning our packets without talking to us.
Additionally, there isn't consensus yet on direction of how to proceed and whether this is council or SFTF, so your first order of business would be to convince a third member you want
to talk more about specifics Wednesday, as I've gotten a request in the opposite to not talk about this, so as I seek direction I'm at 2-1 and need to talk to the other two council
members before I do add it.
For the presentation itself, there are a few suggestions I'd make just in regards to how to Park Mobile digital passes would work. They wouldn't need to be entered daily as it would
be a "permit" that's good for 12 days once the code is activated. If we activated the code at City Hall they'd never even know what their code is, whereas if we send it it would be
like receiving a gift card confirmation code that they would enter and have their vehicle good. The alternative is we could send 12 daily passes, which could be used for friends/family
as one time use, but those still cost $1 per code so something to consider. This may be what it's referring to and if so that makes sense, I'd just clarify it a bit.
Jack

Hi Eric,
Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.

Hi Jim,
The attached spreadsheets have the total of Northome eligible addresses (217 living on a e-meter street), and the other spreadsheet has space counts for Northome as a tab (297).

Hi Jack, Did you get a chance to check on how many of the parking spots are located just in northome, and similarly, how many of the eligible households are in northome? I wanted to
run a northome only scenario to get a better idea of the absolute bottom of reasonable revenue expectations. (Since we can pretty well assume that nh will be parked up, but we are
less sure about the % utilization of spots north of larpenteur)
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim and Eric,
Nice work on this!
I think the best course of action would be to request we go over the ppt at the workshop, and I could bring it up and you could present. It's a great presentation but without context
it likely will cause even more confusion in the media, as all eyes are on scanning our packets without talking to us.
Additionally, there isn't consensus yet on direction of how to proceed and whether this is council or SFTF, so your first order of business would be to convince a third member you want
to talk more about specifics Wednesday, as I've gotten a request in the opposite to not talk about this, so as I seek direction I'm at 2-1 and need to talk to the other two council
members before I do add it.
For the presentation itself, there are a few suggestions I'd make just in regards to how to Park Mobile digital passes would work. They wouldn't need to be entered daily as it would
be a "permit" that's good for 12 days once the code is activated. If we activated the code at City Hall they'd never even know what their code is, whereas if we send it it would be
like receiving a gift card confirmation code that they would enter and have their vehicle good. The alternative is we could send 12 daily passes, which could be used for friends/family
as one time use, but those still cost $1 per code so something to consider. This may be what it's referring to and if so that makes sense, I'd just clarify it a bit.
Jack

Hi Eric,
Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,

P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.

Hi Jim,
The attached spreadsheets have the total of Northome eligible addresses (217 living on a e-meter street), and the other spreadsheet has space counts for Northome as a tab (297).

Hi Jack, Did you get a chance to check on how many of the parking spots are located just in northome, and similarly, how many of the eligible households are in northome? I wanted to
run a northome only scenario to get a better idea of the absolute bottom of reasonable revenue expectations. (Since we can pretty well assume that nh will be parked up, but we are
less sure about the % utilization of spots north of larpenteur)

Hi Jim and Eric,
Nice work on this!
I think the best course of action would be to request we go over the ppt at the workshop, and I could bring it up and you could present. It's a great presentation but without context
it likely will cause even more confusion in the media, as all eyes are on scanning our packets without talking to us.
Additionally, there isn't consensus yet on direction of how to proceed and whether this is council or SFTF, so your first order of business would be to convince a third member you want
to talk more about specifics Wednesday, as I've gotten a request in the opposite to not talk about this, so as I seek direction I'm at 2-1 and need to talk to the other two council
members before I do add it.
For the presentation itself, there are a few suggestions I'd make just in regards to how to Park Mobile digital passes would work. They wouldn't need to be entered daily as it would
be a "permit" that's good for 12 days once the code is activated. If we activated the code at City Hall they'd never even know what their code is, whereas if we send it it would be
like receiving a gift card confirmation code that they would enter and have their vehicle good. The alternative is we could send 12 daily passes, which could be used for friends/family
as one time use, but those still cost $1 per code so something to consider. This may be what it's referring to and if so that makes sense, I'd just clarify it a bit.
Jack

Hi Eric,
Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has

Thanks for your comments Laurie!
I'm fairly firm in my position that this is worth trying but will be the first to admit that the first proposal had as many shortcomings as the communication around it.
I think we can get it right, and resident feedback is a big part of how we get there.
Kindly,
Eric

Subject: Fwd: Stair Fair Parking Proposal
You don't often get email from lfrattallone@comcast.net. Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification>
Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution.
Dear Members of the City Council and City Administrator:
I regret that I was not able to attend the Public Hearing on 3/26 regarding the pay-for parking proposal for Falcon Heights. I wish to submit my comments now, and I hope they will be
added to the accumulating number of comments from residents who oppose this proposal.
I have lived at 1784 Simpson Street for 34 years. In our household we are fans of the Fair, and enjoy welcoming visitors to grab a free parking spot on our street and nearby streets.
We have never once had our driveway blocked, and see just a small increase in trash on the street--primarily cigarette butts. For us, it's fun to see how many cars are parked on our
neighboring streets each day of the Fair, and thereby guess what the attendance might be.
I watched the entire hearing on video, so I won't belabor the excellent arguments made by my fellow residents. After hearing their comments, and the clarifying statements from council
members, I feel I have a good perspective about where this proposal is headed, so I do want to make a few points:
1. My main objection to this proposal is the cost of social disapproval to our city. Given the strong reaction on social media to erroneous media reports that the plan to charge for
parking was already approved, I think anyone can agree that this is not going to be a popular move. I understand that the City wishes to be compensated for the cost of hosting the Fair
(more on that below), but this move is using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Charging for parking will disgruntle our visitors. We can't be welcoming and have our hand out for a $25
parking fee at the same time. I'm firmly in the camp of other Falcon Heights residents who think this proposal is greedy and will change the mood of the neighborhoods that are used
to having Fair visitors park on their streets.
2. The Council seems to have already decided. After watching the meeting, I see why several media outlets reported that the proposal for pay parking will go forward. I didn't get a sense
from any member of the council that they were concerned about opposition to charging for parking. They seemed more concerned about the logistics of free permits for residents and placement
of signage. Did you not hear the gracious comments from people who don't want to add to the cost of Fair attendance for those who really count on a FREE place to park?
What I saw in the hearing was an example of confirmation bias. I think members of the council dismissed the comments in opposition, and only focussed on those who praised them for coming
up with another revenue stream.
3. The financials of this proposal are really "squishy," especially given the potential social cost. Based on what Mr. Linehan said about costs of hosting the Fair, it seems the city
really is looking for a small amount of money to cover soft costs, such as more trash barrels, some additional sanitation service, and porta-potties. I agree that the Fair should subsidize
these needs. I understand they are unlikely to do that. But it seems we don't really need to come up with $100,000-$200,000 every year to cover the soft costs. The hard costs Mr. Linehan
mentioned seem to already be budgeted for. If we foresee a need to cover these in the future with new revenue, then I would like to hear a better needs-based argument about this.
Mr. Linehan stated that projected net revenue from the pay parking is difficult to pinpoint, given that it is unknown how many times a spot will turn over in a day. This is fair. But,
in light of this, I would urge an even more conservative estimate of net revenue. At one point Mr. Linehan stated that revenue could be as low as $75,000-$100,000. In my opinion, such
a small amount is not worth the effort and guaranteed social disapproval.
If you vary the rates based on the distance of the parking spot from the Fair, this is going to decrease the potential revenue even more.
4. If you vote to approve this, do not do a three-year contract for a service with so many unknowns.
5. Parking Ambassadors. I am not at all reassured that Parking Ambassadors will make this a better experience for Fair visitors by "helping them" with their parking. First, who would
want to do this job? Ambassadors is a cute name, but really they are Parking Enforcement Assistants. They will be welcoming people into our neighborhoods by "helping" them figure out
how to use the Park Mobile App so they can pay $25 for what used to be a fee parking spot. And then they can "help" them by telling them it's about a mile walk to the Fair gates.
Finding anyone who has the customer service skills to make people feel welcome in these circumstances is going to be a challenge. It's unlikely that a short-term worker who has no affinity
for our city will represent us well.
6. You Can't Have it Both Ways. I feel that those who are in support of this proposal think it will solve traffic and safety issues. If the parking rate is a deterrent to visitors,
then it might actually do that. But if people don't park, then the city doesn't get the expected revenue, so you lose your main goal for the effort.
If you want safety and less traffic, move to permit only parking during the Fair. Give permits to residents and keep everyone else out. No more trash, no more need for porta-potties,
no more extra wear and tear on the streets. I would honestly rather see that than an ill-conceived money grab. (But still, let the people park for FREE!)
7. Messaging. Finally, I would like to say it was really disappointing that the City lost control of the messaging following the 3/26 hearing. Making big changes like pay for parking
requires very controlled communication. The fact that several media outlets reported that pay parking WILL HAPPEN is evidence that communication is not being well-managed. Now whether
you do or do not vote to have pay parking, you have to fix the garbled messaging that already reached the public.
I understand there are many challenges to your jobs as elected officials. I appreciate your service, and the time commitment of the State Fair Task Force. I strongly believe you should
not underestimate the impact this decision will have on the character of our city and its neighborhoods. I don't believe this is a "let's give it a whirl and see how it goes" kind of
decision. Please do not discount those who oppose this idea.
Respectfully,
Laurie Frattallone

Hi Jim and Eric,
Nice work on this!
I think the best course of action would be to request we go over the ppt at the workshop, and I could bring it up and you could present. It's a great presentation but without context
it likely will cause even more confusion in the media, as all eyes are on scanning our packets without talking to us.
Additionally, there isn't consensus yet on direction of how to proceed and whether this is council or SFTF, so your first order of business would be to convince a third member you want
to talk more about specifics Wednesday, as I've gotten a request in the opposite to not talk about this, so as I seek direction I'm at 2-1 and need to talk to the other two council
members before I do add it.
For the presentation itself, there are a few suggestions I'd make just in regards to how to Park Mobile digital passes would work. They wouldn't need to be entered daily as it would
be a "permit" that's good for 12 days once the code is activated. If we activated the code at City Hall they'd never even know what their code is, whereas if we send it it would be
like receiving a gift card confirmation code that they would enter and have their vehicle good. The alternative is we could send 12 daily passes, which could be used for friends/family
as one time use, but those still cost $1 per code so something to consider. This may be what it's referring to and if so that makes sense, I'd just clarify it a bit.

Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that

I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.
20250401163715,James Wassenberg james.wassenberg@falconheights.org,Jack Linehan jack.linehan@falconheights.org_96.eml
Thanks Jack.
Depending on assumptions about how much residents will use passes, it looks like Northome alone is about $85K-$95K of net revenue.
Eric, I don't think you need to add that to the preso as I don't want to get people any more fired up than they might be already. I'm not pushing for this to be Northome only operation.
It was just something I wanted to know in case we get into a discussion about how utlized northeast quadarant may or may not be.

Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.

Here's the latest iteration... I added a feedback summary slide, clarified that scenario 4 would be 12 daily codes, and tried to also clarify that scenarios 1-3 would require no codes.
If Jim crunches any new numbers I can update the presentation!

Hi Jim,
The attached spreadsheets have the total of Northome eligible addresses (217 living on a e-meter street), and the other spreadsheet has space counts for Northome as a tab (297).

Hi Jack, Did you get a chance to check on how many of the parking spots are located just in northome, and similarly, how many of the eligible households are in northome? I wanted to
run a northome only scenario to get a better idea of the absolute bottom of reasonable revenue expectations. (Since we can pretty well assume that nh will be parked up, but we are
less sure about the % utilization of spots north of larpenteur)

Hi Jim and Eric,
Nice work on this!
I think the best course of action would be to request we go over the ppt at the workshop, and I could bring it up and you could present. It's a great presentation but without context
it likely will cause even more confusion in the media, as all eyes are on scanning our packets without talking to us.
Additionally, there isn't consensus yet on direction of how to proceed and whether this is council or SFTF, so your first order of business would be to convince a third member you want
to talk more about specifics Wednesday, as I've gotten a request in the opposite to not talk about this, so as I seek direction I'm at 2-1 and need to talk to the other two council
members before I do add it.
For the presentation itself, there are a few suggestions I'd make just in regards to how to Park Mobile digital passes would work. They wouldn't need to be entered daily as it would
be a "permit" that's good for 12 days once the code is activated. If we activated the code at City Hall they'd never even know what their code is, whereas if we send it it would be
like receiving a gift card confirmation code that they would enter and have their vehicle good. The alternative is we could send 12 daily passes, which could be used for friends/family
as one time use, but those still cost $1 per code so something to consider. This may be what it's referring to and if so that makes sense, I'd just clarify it a bit.

So let's plan on it!

MN State Fair E-Meter Parking Options Core Principle: Parking policies must enhance residents' safety, preserve neighborhood character, and maintain affordable living for our community.
Slides by Eric Meyer Modeling by James Wassenberg State Fair E-Meters4 What we heard& Benefits Generates revenue for city services and potential tax reduction May reduce traffic congestion
from drivers seeking free parking Funds amenities like portable toilets and trash management Distributes fair costs to visitors, not just residents Concerns May portray city negatively
as unwelcoming or greedy Limits residents' ability to offer free parking to family and friends Pricing ($25) seems high and higher further north Financial projections may not justify
social costs Scenario Comparison Scenario Advantages Challenges 1 - Vehicle Specific Passes Highest Revenue? "Set and forget", after registration no action necessary Nontransferable,
difficult for ambassadors to search for specific exempt license plates 2 - Daily Codes Flexible for multiple vehicles Requires daily app usage (tech barrier), printing/mailing costs,
potential for resale 3 - Hangtags Simple, convenient, transferability to family and guests, lower staff time requirement Lowest revenue, printing/mailing costs for hangtags, potential
for resale Hangtag Resident Pass Details Two hangtag resident passes are mailed to each affected household in Northome and Northeast Quadrant, with the option for two more free resident
pass hangtags mailed upon request via call to city hall or submission to an online form. Pros Simple system requiring no technical knowledge, providing the most resident-friendly experience.
Easy transferability between vehicles. In line with common resident feedback Allows efficient batch processing by staff. Cons Extra design, printing, and mailing costs for hangtags
Potential for reselling hangtags Lowest revenue Projected Revenue ~$147,000 Neighborhood Profit Margin Utilization Profit Northome ($25) $17.90 100% $84,000 South of Garden ($20) $14.36
70% $42,000 North of Garden ($15) $10.77 40% $21,000 Additional Assumptions: Each pass is used on average three times, and each spot turns over about 3 times per day. Implementation
Considerations Fraud Prevention Hangtags can include varying paper color, diagonal stripes, and year marking. Annual design changes discourage reuse of expired tags. Tech Accessibility
Scenario 1 and 5 avoid app barriers for non-tech savvy residents. Scenario 2 requires digital literacy and smartphone access. Enforcement Visual hangtags allow faster enforcement compared
to license plate verification.

Received, thank you. I updated slide 5 to say scenarios 1 &3 rather than 1&5 as that got updated in this version.
I'll have copies printed for you if the Chair (Randy) allows a presentation without majority objection, and can present on the big screen as well for audience if that's the direction.

Hi Eric,
Here is a writeup of the scenarios we discussed this morning.
Jack, Eric was going to put these into a powerpoint format to make them more digestible.
Paula heard that we were working on these and wanted me to forward them to her, but I said I couldn't since that would be three CMs and therefor a quorum violation, but I suggested that
we could provide them to you and that you could send them out to the full council as a workshop packet addendum prior to the workshop. Do you think you could do that when Eric sends
you the powerpoint?
I think the last of the scenarios makes things super easy on staff and our residents, while reasonably preserving net revenue. ($221K)
Thanks,
Jim
P.S. I also tried a Northome-only scenario using hangtags. I couldn't find the info on eligible households or number of parking spots in northome, but when I assume that Northome has
half of both, the net revenue is $147K. We need more exact data to be sure. I'm not sure I would be in favor of that approach, but residents did ask about whether we had considered
a slow roll out, so it would answer that concern to at least show that we looked at it.
20250405155423,Laurie Frattallone lfrattallone@comcast.net,Eric Meyer eric.meyer@falconheights.org_101.eml
You don't often get email from lfrattallone@comcast.net. Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification>
Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution.
Dear Eric:
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I particularly appreciate it because it was the only reply I received, and I sent my comments to all council members and the city administrator.
But I understand there are probably many messages directed at city officials on this topic.
I watched the workshop session on 4/2. I truly appreciate the work you and council member Wassenberg have done to create a financial model for this proposal.
I noted that most of the meeting time on 4/2 was taken up by discussion of managing the logistics of permitting, parking rates, signage, etc. The discussion was ongoing when I stopped
watching at about 8:10, but from 6:30 to 8:10, I would estimate 10 to 15 minutes were spent on the "why" of the proposal. I appreciate that Mayor Gustafson started the meeting with
this topic, but very few on the council offered their thoughts one way or another. Gustafson identified public safety as the major why. But I say again, will charging for parking solve
the public safety issue? The council has not backed up the need for a public safety solution with data, that I know of. I think those of us who live in the Northeast Quadrant have a
very different experience from those who live in Northhome. I think many of us who oppose this pay for parking idea would like to see numbers of police calls, illegal parking calls,
and other resident complaints associated with the fair. Perhaps that would inspire more empathy and understanding.
But even given a need-based argument backed with data, I still don't see how pay parking would solve or even decrease public safety issues UNLESS the cost of parking is a deterrent.
If people are not deterred you will still deal with the traffic, trash, and unwanted behavior. The very long workshop discussion on numbers of permits per household, creating fraud-proof
permits, distributing permits, organizing enforcement, the role of the ambassadors, the need for a PR contract to manage messaging, etc. signals to me this is not worth all the bureaucracy
and headaches the council is creating. I do NOT agree with Mayor Gustafson when he stated that even if we break even, it will still be a victory. NO it will not! The city will have
spent any money generated by pay parking to administer pay parking and permits for residents, but will likely still have all of the public safety issues they claim they are trying to
solve, and an angry bunch of visitors on top of that.
Again, I don't think it is worth the experiment. And I certainly don't think it is worth a three year contract with Park Mobile. If the REAL reason the council and task force want to
charge for parking is to keep visitors out of Falcon Heights during the Fair, then please make the busiest streets with the most traffic issues permit parking only. Give residents there
a generous number of permits. Leave the less-trafficked areas as free street parking. Forget about trying to make money from pay parking. It's not worth it.
Thank you again for taking the time to listen to your constituents.
Sincerely,
Laurie Frattallone

Thanks for your comments Laurie!
I'm fairly firm in my position that this is worth trying but will be the first to admit that the first proposal had as many shortcomings as the communication around it.
I think we can get it right, and resident feedback is a big part of how we get there.
Kindly,

Dear Members of the City Council and City Administrator:
I regret that I was not able to attend the Public Hearing on 3/26 regarding the pay-for parking proposal for Falcon Heights. I wish to submit my comments now, and I hope they will be
added to the accumulating number of comments from residents who oppose this proposal.
I have lived at 1784 Simpson Street for 34 years. In our household we are fans of the Fair, and enjoy welcoming visitors to grab a free parking spot on our street and nearby streets.
We have never once had our driveway blocked, and see just a small increase in trash on the street--primarily cigarette butts. For us, it's fun to see how many cars are parked on our
neighboring streets each day of the Fair, and thereby guess what the attendance might be.
I watched the entire hearing on video, so I won't belabor the excellent arguments made by my fellow residents. After hearing their comments, and the clarifying statements from council
members, I feel I have a good perspective about where this proposal is headed, so I do want to make a few points:
1. My main objection to this proposal is the cost of social disapproval to our city. Given the strong reaction on social media to erroneous media reports that the plan to charge for
parking was already approved, I think anyone can agree that this is not going to be a popular move. I understand that the City wishes to be compensated for the cost of hosting the Fair
(more on that below), but this move is using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Charging for parking will disgruntle our visitors. We can't be welcoming and have our hand out for a $25
parking fee at the same time. I'm firmly in the camp of other Falcon Heights residents who think this proposal is greedy and will change the mood of the neighborhoods that are used
to having Fair visitors park on their streets.
2. The Council seems to have already decided. After watching the meeting, I see why several media outlets reported that the proposal for pay parking will go forward. I didn't get a sense
from any member of the council that they were concerned about opposition to charging for parking. They seemed more concerned about the logistics of free permits for residents and placement
of signage. Did you not hear the gracious comments from people who don't want to add to the cost of Fair attendance for those who really count on a FREE place to park?
What I saw in the hearing was an example of confirmation bias. I think members of the council dismissed the comments in opposition, and only focussed on those who praised them for coming
up with another revenue stream.
3. The financials of this proposal are really "squishy," especially given the potential social cost. Based on what Mr. Linehan said about costs of hosting the Fair, it seems the city
really is looking for a small amount of money to cover soft costs, such as more trash barrels, some additional sanitation service, and porta-potties. I agree that the Fair should subsidize
these needs. I understand they are unlikely to do that. But it seems we don't really need to come up with $100,000-$200,000 every year to cover the soft costs. The hard costs Mr. Linehan
mentioned seem to already be budgeted for. If we foresee a need to cover these in the future with new revenue, then I would like to hear a better needs-based argument about this.
Mr. Linehan stated that projected net revenue from the pay parking is difficult to pinpoint, given that it is unknown how many times a spot will turn over in a day. This is fair. But,
in light of this, I would urge an even more conservative estimate of net revenue. At one point Mr. Linehan stated that revenue could be as low as $75,000-$100,000. In my opinion, such
a small amount is not worth the effort and guaranteed social disapproval.
If you vary the rates based on the distance of the parking spot from the Fair, this is going to decrease the potential revenue even more.
4. If you vote to approve this, do not do a three-year contract for a service with so many unknowns.
5. Parking Ambassadors. I am not at all reassured that Parking Ambassadors will make this a better experience for Fair visitors by "helping them" with their parking. First, who would
want to do this job? Ambassadors is a cute name, but really they are Parking Enforcement Assistants. They will be welcoming people into our neighborhoods by "helping" them figure out
how to use the Park Mobile App so they can pay $25 for what used to be a fee parking spot. And then they can "help" them by telling them it's about a mile walk to the Fair gates.
Finding anyone who has the customer service skills to make people feel welcome in these circumstances is going to be a challenge. It's unlikely that a short-term worker who has no affinity
for our city will represent us well.
6. You Can't Have it Both Ways. I feel that those who are in support of this proposal think it will solve traffic and safety issues. If the parking rate is a deterrent to visitors,
then it might actually do that. But if people don't park, then the city doesn't get the expected revenue, so you lose your main goal for the effort.
If you want safety and less traffic, move to permit only parking during the Fair. Give permits to residents and keep everyone else out. No more trash, no more need for porta-potties,
no more extra wear and tear on the streets. I would honestly rather see that than an ill-conceived money grab. (But still, let the people park for FREE!)
7. Messaging. Finally, I would like to say it was really disappointing that the City lost control of the messaging following the 3/26 hearing. Making big changes like pay for parking
requires very controlled communication. The fact that several media outlets reported that pay parking WILL HAPPEN is evidence that communication is not being well-managed. Now whether
you do or do not vote to have pay parking, you have to fix the garbled messaging that already reached the public.
I understand there are many challenges to your jobs as elected officials. I appreciate your service, and the time commitment of the State Fair Task Force. I strongly believe you should
not underestimate the impact this decision will have on the character of our city and its neighborhoods. I don't believe this is a "let's give it a whirl and see how it goes" kind of
decision. Please do not discount those who oppose this idea.
Respectfully,
Laurie Frattallone

Hi Jack,
Somehow I'm feeling the need to talk to you every week these days. I'm wondering if you have any time in your schedule tomorrow to meet.
I'd like to talk to you about some facilitiation I'd like to do to help identify youth commissioners. We could just do it as a call if you like, but I am free to come in.
On a separate note, I saw the parking petition site you sent. Thanks. My wife pointed it out to me too. I think it is further evidence that we need to get our ducks in a row as soon
as possible, and then over communicate. I have to say, I can see why people would sign it. If everything that it says were true (which... not even close), I'd probably sign it myself.
That said, I took the time to write up some clarifications and corrections for my own thought process. I've attached them in case you might find them useful.
Best,
Jim
Dear Neighbor,
We're reaching out to ask for your support in opposing the proposed E-meter Parking (ParkMobile) system and the associated parking charges for the Fair. This proposal will place unnecessary
burdens on our community, and it’s important that we take action to ensure our concerns are heard.
This is important because the
https://kstp.com/kstp-news/top-news/e-meter-parking-planned-for-falcon-heights-neighborhoods-during-state-fair/proposed EParking system and associated parking charges unfairly burden
residents, particularly those who rely on street parking for caregiving, daily needs, and essential services. This will not be the case. Parking will be free for up to 4 cars at a
time for residents and their visitors/guests. It also excludes low- and middle-income individuals, as well as those with mobility or health issues, from accessing the Fair. Those with
mobility issues would likely have difficulty walking from the neighborhoods to the fair. Dropoff, or the available free park and rides are a better option than even the current free
parking for low income individuals or those with mobility issues. Additionally, the plan lacks financial transparency, risks to the city and community have not been fully addressed,
and public engagement has been minimal. Addressed below. The installation of permanent parking posts could negatively impact property values and the aesthetics of our neighborhoods.
Signing the petition helps ensure that the Fair remains accessible, fair, and considerate of all residents' needs.
\We, the undersigned residents and concerned individuals, oppose the proposed E-meter Parking (ParkMobile) system and associated parking charges for the Fair. We believe this proposal
unfairly burdens residents and fails to consider the full impact on our community.
1. Unclear Purpose and Financial JustificationThe proposed revenue from parking charges ($100,000–$240,000) lacks sufficient backing and clarity. The city has not provided enough evidence
that this system will effectively meet financial needs. We call for full transparency and clearer financial justification. <This can be provided. Financial have been refined and have
been done extensively. All reasonable scenarios have resulted in net financial benefits sufficient to offset the financial costs to Falcon Heights of hosting the fair.
2. Financial Burden on ResidentsThe $25 daily parking charge (totaling $300) for 12 days is a significant financial strain for those who rely on street parking for caregiving, essential
services, and daily needs. We oppose this charge, which unfairly impacts residents. (Even with an option of more than one pass per household, as is now being discussed as an option
- residents would still have to apply if more than one is needed) <The plan for resident passes has been refined based on resident feedback from the public hearing. The current plan
is that any resident living on a affected street could park up to four vehicles on the street at once at no cost. Passes could be shared with visitors, guests, caregivers, and service
providers at the resident’s discretion
3. Inaccessibility for Low-Income ResidentsCharging $25 a day for parking places an undue burden on low- and middle-income Fair goers, . Free park and rides have been and will continue
to be the best transportation option for low and middle income fair goers. and alternatives like buses or rideshares aren’t viable for everyone, especially those with mobility, health,
<Parking and walking hundreds of yards from the fair entrance has never been the best option for those with mobility or health issues. Wheelchair accessible buses and a park and ride
lot reserved for persons with handicap stickers are located at Oscar Johnson. All other park and rides are also serviced by handicap accessible buses. This has been and continues to
be the best transport option for those with mobility or health issues See https://www.mnstatefair.org/guides/accessibility/ . or financial challenges As a community committed to being
welcoming and inclusive, we cannot support a proposal that disproportionately excludes vulnerable individuals. True inclusivity means ensuring all residents, regardless of income, can
participate in the Fair.
4. Risks to the City and CommunityThere are risks to the city if parking spaces are not filled or if issues arise with the ParkMobile system. These risks have not been fully addressed,
and we believe they need careful consideration before proceeding. It is not clear what risks are being referred to. Falcon Heights will not accept a contract that poses undue financial
or legal risks to the community. <May also want to address what happens if the Park Mobile App experiences an outage.
5. Lack of Transparency and Public EngagementThe public engagement process has been insufficient, with limited communication and a lack of meaningful dialogue. Despite task force meetings
being held since September 2024, residents were largely unaware of the proposal until the Spring 2025 Newsletter, and the public hearing did not provide enough opportunity for constructive
input. The parking proposal first came before the city council on February 5th 2025 during a televised workshop. The public hearing during which 34 residents chose to speak, was held
on March 26th. We demand more transparent processes and genuine community involvement. <Additional communications will continue to from the city to keep residents informed as more details
become solidified.
6. Possible Negative Impact on Property Values and AestheticsPermanent parking posts in residential lawns could negatively affect property values and the aesthetic integrity of our neighborhoods.
The introduction of ParkMobile in residential areas sets an undesirable precedent for future commercialization. Not sure what this means. At the public hearing on Wed March 26th, we
were told they are “trying” to make the signs temporary, but the posts might have to be permanent. The preference by all is for the signs to be temporary. <The city is exploring options
to place temporary, yet highly visible and robust signage. The signs certainly can be temporary, the challenge is to make the signposts also temporary.
Could now list other benefits from the proposal
Ability of police to focus on public safety rather than identifying parking issues
Improved identification and removal of hazardous parking situations (wrong side parking, parking over or too near sidewalks, driveways, alleyways and corners.)
Likely reduced and calmer car traffic as fairgoers won’t be desperately searching for prized, free parking spots
Improved safety and fair experience due to the presence and assistance of Falcon Heights Ambassadors in the neighborhoods.

CALL TO ORDER: 6:33 PM B. ROLL CALL: GUSTAFSON_X_ LEEHY___ Eric Meyer arrived at 7:24 PM. MIELKE_X_ WASSENBERG_X_ STAFF PRESENT: LINEHAN_X_ JOHNSON_X_ C. POLICY
ITEMS: 1. Continuation or Recap of the 2025 Council Goal Setting Session Wassenberg expressed support for organizing topics into groups, suggesting that each group could be discussed
during a dedicated workshop. Mielke emphasized the importance of prioritization in the process. Linehan outlined the next steps, which include a consultant review and presenting a rough
draft at the April workshop. Following that, specific goals will be prioritized and assigned timelines. 2. State Fair Task Force (SFTF) Recommendation on E-Meter Street Parking Linehan
summarizes that the SFTF and the City Council met in February to discuss the implementation of E-Meters. The current proposal focuses on the Northome and Northeast Quadrant Neighborhoods—areas
with existing free, one-sided street parking. Streets with existing permit-only or no-parking designations would remain unchanged. A map of the proposed areas was shared. Hamline Ave.
and Larpenteur are excluded due to them being county-owned roads. Falcon Woods would remain a free, unrestricted parking area except for its existing permit zone. Other residential
permit parking areas are only applicable during the workweek and are open on the weekends. The Task Force and ParkMobile recommend issuing one complimentary 12-day pass per household
through the ParkMobile app, valid across all parking zones. Residents would register a vehicle (tied to a license plate) to claim their pass. The thought is to allow residents to purchase
extra passes, potentially at a discounted rate. A one-day parking pass would be $25. Police and parking ambassadors would enforce compliance using license plate recognition. Non-registered
vehicles may be ticketed. There was discussion about the logistics of distributing codes: • Wassenberg suggested mailing the codes proactively to all eligible addresses. • Linehan
noted that requiring residents to pick up codes would reduce misuse but increase staff workload. Mailing codes could be easier and promote higher utilization. Currently, they get an
individualized letter with permits. Could use the 36 same idea and the city generates codes. Residents will sign-up through the app which will require them to fill in their license
and registration. • Gustafson emphasized that requiring residents to come to City Hall for a basic pass could create complications and long lines before the fair. Instead, only require
inperson visits for additional passes and make available to request online as well. Mielke explains the logic behind the program. People can’t use ParkMobile to find open spaces. People
will still drive around to look for parking spots. The fair charges for parking, so why shouldn’t Falcon Heights. Other cities can add a sales tax to increase revenue, but Falcon Heights
doesn’t have a large commercial base. Wassenberg adds this would also encourage the use of park and rides. Mielke points out the complimentary resident pass would not guarantee a spot
on the street; it will also not be tied to a zone and makes parking for residents available in all zones. Linehan adds the paid parking for fairgoers is only valid for one day. There
was also a discussion about zone management and enforcement: • Wassenberg wonders how zones should be set up, and what kind of technology is needed to read plates for compliance.
• Linehan explains ParkMobile suggests 1 zone per block. Keep in mind the more zones, the more codes need to be generated, making it more cumbersome. ParkMobile can supply plate-reading
technology for the ambassadors. • Mielke wants to use ParkMobile’s expertise on determining zones and pricing. • Gustafson notes data from the pilot year could help refine zones and
enforcement in the future. • Meyer wonders if ambassadors are paid positions. • Linehan explains ambassadors will be city employees, and would support enforcement and assist fairgoers,
modeled after the St. Paul ambassador program. They can be an extension of SAPD. They will verify vehicles through the app, help guide visitors, and report violations to police. •
Meyer suggests scheduling ambassadors in shifts, having a supervisor and designated break areas (potentially coordinated with churches or local businesses). • Gustafson notes pairing
them up for safety and ending shifts at 8 PM. The council continues to discuss details for the ambassadors, what kind of information is needed from Park Mobile before the public hearing,
and having a rep available. They also discuss creating a FAQ. The council and Linehan discuss revenue, costs, and future planning: • A flat $25 daily parking fee is proposed, with
no added service fees. ParkMobile takes ~20% to cover marketing and administrative costs. • Proceeds will go toward administrative overhead and the city’s capital improvement fund,
ultimately helping to reduce the tax burden. • Examples of capital uses include roads, sewer upgrades, and parks. • Tickets for violations will be $100 and processed through the court
system. • Vehicles will only be towed if they create a safety hazard or remain unmoved for over 48 hours. • The Council will need to adopt an annual ordinance establishing State Fair
parking dates. 37 The Council stresses the need to keep the program simple and minimally disruptive in its first year. If successful, it may expand in the future. The emphasis remains
on balancing revenue generation with convenience for residents and operational efficiency for staff. 3. Release of Request for Proposal (RFP) for Classification and Compensation Study
Consultant Linehan proposes releasing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a classification and compensation study and asked the Council for clarification on the desired scope. He emphasized
the importance of fair and equitable compensation, noting that the city is currently the only one in the area without an established classification and compensation system. Without
pay ranges, it's difficult to complete the required pay equity reports for the state. The proposed study would evaluate positions—not individuals—and recommend a point system or scale
based on job descriptions. Key questions for the RFP scope: • Should the study be limited to full-time employees only, or should it also include part-time, seasonal staff, council members,
and commissioners? • Should the consultant also analyze the city’s benefits package? Including this would increase both the cost and complexity of the study. Council Discussion: •
Meyer asks how much has been budgeted for the study. • Mielke suggests that the benefits analysis could be postponed until next year and that the city might gather benefit comparison
data from other cities in the meantime. • Linehan responds that data from the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) could help benchmark benefits. • Gustafson points out that compensation
includes both salary and benefits, and external insight could be valuable. • Wassenberg questions whether analyzing benefits was worth the additional cost, noting not all employees
fully utilize them. • Gustafson responds that the rising cost of benefits makes them a critical part of total compensation and worth examining. • Mielke proposes asking for both options
in the RFP, itemized separately, so the Council can decide based on cost. Linehan adds that excluding benefits would simplify the study, but notes it’s still important to understand
what benefit offerings could make the city a more competitive and attractive employer. However, benefits analysis can become complex and time intensive. While pay equity remains the
top priority, implementation could be costly depending on the findings. The council agrees that classification and compensation data is important. 4. Future Agenda Topics Linehan
explains the goal-setting session will determine a number of future workshop 38 topics. There is also a public hearing scheduled for license revocation for a Falcon Heights business
depending on communication received from the MN Department of Revenue. Mielke inquires about the upcoming community meeting regarding Dino’s. Linehan explains that the meeting is
intended for immediate neighbors to provide feedback on a potential drive-through proposal at the business’s current location. Before moving forward with a formal application, the business
is seeking preliminary input to gauge neighborhood sentiment. The process would involve a traffic study and the combination of adjacent lots, but the business owner wants to hear from
neighbors first before committing to those expenses. The meeting will take place at City Hall. Linehan emphasizes that this is an informational meeting—residents will not vote, and
the final decision rests with the business owner based on feasibility and community input. Gustafson notes that the proposal would likely require a variance or Planned Unit Development
(PUD). Mielke expresses some concern, referencing the denial of Buhl’s Caribou Coffee drive-through in the past. D. ADJOURNMENT: 9:02 PM DISCLAIMER: City Council Workshops are held
monthly as an opportunity for Council Members to discuss policy topics in greater detail prior to a formal meeting where a public hearing may be held and/or action may be taken. Members
of the public that would like to make a comment or ask questions about an item on the agenda for an upcoming workshop should send them to mail@falconheights.org prior to the meeting.

explains Consent Agenda Item 2 and provides an updated quote with pricing from Cedar Forest. Some items were removed, and updated pricing was provided today. This brought the total
cost down from $350,000 to $313,000. Consent Agenda Item 8 is part of the 2025 PMP project in the Falcon Woods neighborhood; there is some tree removal needed for stormwater improvements.
The reason for a last-minute addition is the need to comply with environmental regulations, requiring trees to be removed sooner than anticipated. Public Works and Engineering will
work with the residents in the neighborhood on the coordination. The trees are located in the stormwater easement. Mielke wonders how many trees will need to be removed. Linehan is
unsure, but the tree’s location determines the removal. Gustafson thanks Jared for his time on the Environment Commission. Mayor Gustafson motions to approve the consent agenda;
Approved 4-0 H: POLICY ITEMS: I. INFORMATION/ANNOUNCEMENTS: Leehy notes that on Monday, March 17, the Community Engagement Commission will have its first meeting of the year.
There are two vacancies on the commission, and she recommends that residents apply. Mielke explains that the Climate Action Team met last week, and other Falcon Heights organizations
were brought in to help with the goal setting. She also attended the swearing in of the new Ramsey County Commissioner, for District 3. Gustafson explains that some council members
and Administrator Linehan attended LMC’s Day at the Hill and met with Representative Leigh Finke to discuss local priorities. They also met Senator Clare Oumou-Verbeten to discuss regional
priorities with Roseville and Lauderdale. 42 Linehan notes that on March 1, the SAPD officially transitioned to be the police agency for Falcon Heights. They had a Coffee with a Cop
at Amber Union this morning. The AARP Tax Appointments at City Hall are fully booked. Public Works has American Environmental going around the city to clean and televise the main sewer,
all the systems are cleared this year. Upper Cut is also going around trimming and removing boulevard trees. Currently, the City is working on getting a tree replacement program up
and running, but there is not a one-for-one replacement. The council points out hearing positive stories since the police transition. J. COMMUNITY FORUM: Please limit comments to

_X___Prather_X__ Porter___ STAFF PRESENT: LINEHAN_X__ JOHNSON_X_ C. POLICY ITEMS: 1. Continuation of Discussion on E-Meter Parking Gustafson explains that the
Council discussed this item at their latest Council Workshop and that they went through several questions. Both groups differed on how the free parking codes/passes will be disbursed
to residents, and how many. Wassenberg advocated for a non-complicated method with the least amount of impact on residents and staff time, and the Council agreed. This item needs to
be revisited, as the State Fair Task Force (SFTF) did not fully agree with this method. McGarthwaite explains mailing a pass/code to every resident will not work, because not every
resident always receives mail. Providing a free code to everyone can also lead to abuse, decreased value, and the codes still need to be registered and activated with ParkMobile.
Gustafson and Leehy wonder what the SFTF’s goal of the e-meter parking program is. Mielke comments that the idea is to create a new revenue stream for Falcon Heights, to help cover
expenses generated by the State Fair. If it is not generating revenue, it’s not a worthwhile project to further explore. McGarthwaite adds it’s also a quality-of-life issue and she
believes people who need to pay will take better care. It can also push parkers to Park & Rides and says all of the traffic also already impacts the quality of life of residents. Residents
will need to pay for a second “residential permit;” worries about depleting the process. Leehy appreciates the process that has been thought out. 45 Allard believes the quality of
life will always be questionable around fair time, but at least there will be a revenue stream. Leehy wonders if the SFTF looked at other vendors as well. McGarthwaite notes this
is the only vendor that was approached. ParkMobile has the largest number of users in Minnesota, and people are familiar with it. May emphasizes the importance of finding a balance
between maximizing revenue and not creating a hassle for residents. Limiting the number of permits issued to residents avoids taking up all the spots. Davis wants to ensure the council
is accepting of the offer made by SFTF to have e-meter parking during the State Fair and other major events. She wants the SFTF to work through the details. May adds this will benefit
all residents of Falcon Heights. Northome and NE Quadrant have the highest density of parkers during the fair and so it makes sense to test the program there first. Following the pilot
year, they can discuss the experience and potentially expand to other areas or add entities. Davis is fearful that giving too much parking away would take away the revenue. Leehy
notes there is no opposition, but she wants to ensure all the details are worked through before presenting it to residents. Gustafson agrees. The council wants to think of concepts
and ideas further downstream, so they are trying to gather as much information as they can and to consider all impacts before presenting it to residents. Gustafson reiterates that the
council is favorable to exploring the concept. Mielke adds that the point is to ease parking stress for the neighborhoods. Gustafson sees the concept as a positive, but there are also
logistical issues that need to be worked out. Linehan points out that the city would hire staff to work as parking ambassadors, as the St. Anthony Police Department (SAPD) prefers
it not be officers who use the app. They will be notified by parking ambassadors that utilize the ParkMobile app of any parking violations. SAPD does not have the capacity to utilize
the app, but they will be responsible for ticket enforcement. McGarthwaite moves on to other areas they discussed, which were communications and staffing. Yes, it will be complicated
for staff and residents, but the SFTF believes it will be first-year pains. Linehan has provided communication plans. Leehy previously resided in Northome and did not feel like it
was an inconvenience to acquire a parking permit/pass. There should be a specific timeframe, so it doesn’t happen last minute. Meyer believes people who are in need of parking passes
will come into City Hall. He supports a mailing to make residents aware and offering an online application as well. He believes the price point for a second permit needs to be determined
and agrees there should not be a third permit for residents. Council and SFTF agree that there should be a State Fair guide again. Gustafson asks ParkMobile about the enforcement
of visitors who did not pay for parking. 46 Rob Stephens is the Regional Sales Manager for ParkMobile. He is familiar with smaller city parking regulations. There can be one 12-day
code for residents that only needs to be entered once. Whereas visitors have to pay every single time they park. Regarding enforcement, there is a ParkMobile tool to check parking payments.
It allows someone to check a plate against payment. Various integrations are possible. There is no extra cost for the enforcement. ParkMobile is the largest e-meter parking company
in the US. He lists other places where ParkMobile is active. Because of the familiarity, it is a good emeter parking program to use, because most people will already have the app on
their phone. This makes it as easy as possible to ensure compliance. He likes the idea of having ambassadors to increase visibility on the street, which will also drive compliance.
Allard wonders how the pre-payment process works. Stephens explains the code is valid for one license plate for 12 days. Stephens believed the one-time code would be most efficient
for residents. Residents need to come to City Hall to acquire the code. Having as much inventory on the street for visitors is important. May notes from a resident's standpoint, the
parking will be the same with or without emeter parking. Gustafson adds that a communication method between SAPD and ambassadors needs to be determined. Mielke suggests offering
resident codes as early as possible, having a deadline the day before the fair, and making Saturdays available as well for residents to acquire a reservation. When residents come in,
staff can apply the code to their license plate. They would never have to enter the code themselves. Leehy suggests making the parking ambassador program available to teenagers and
seniors of Falcon Heights and have them pair up. Prather adds teenagers are able to help users with the app. Stephens explains there is also an account management team that can help
with whatever process is decided. Gustafson wonders how the zones should be determined. Stephens notes having different zones is easier, as for enforcement would utilize a list to
cross-reference. Linehan explains the process will be similar for staff for mailing them all out or having residents come in for a back-end perspective. Residents should be able to
park in all zones, as parking will still be first come, first served. Stephens points out it should be looked at it by zone and not by plate. The search function of the app does not
allow searching by plate. Davis wonders what is easier for the city, to purchase codes in bulk or to purchase them one at a time as residents come in. Stephens explains it’s easier
to acquire them all at once. 47 Gustafson wants to ensure that everyone is prepared to answer questions from the public for the March 26 public hearing. All residents will be notified
and will have to come into City Hall for one complimentary pass, and number two can be acquired for a certain dollar amount. But the second parking spot will need to be determined based
on inventory. McGarthwaite adds ParkMobile will provide signage for visitors to acquire day passes. May says a lot of progress has been made and summarizes the decisions that have
been made: - Affected residents have the option to come into City Hall to get a resident pass. - Visitors will have to purchase parking through ParkMobile. - Training will be provided
by ParkMobile. - Ambassadors will be hired to check plates for compliance and they will inform SAPD of parking infraction; SAPD will do ticketing - Signs will be provided by ParkMobile
and additional communications will be done as well. Meyer adds if there is a hard cap on the number of resident passes that are available, it would help determine the amount of second
passes that can be offered. Allard notes it would be hard to determine how many people would need a pass. It is important to note that they are limited. Davis says to make the second
pass first come, first served. The Council and SFTF agree that this program does not rely on getting funding from the federal or state level. McGarthwaite adds it might not feel
welcoming, but people are not parking here to visit Falcon Heights, they are here to park their car to attend the State Fair. Leehy agrees that we can still be welcoming but can have
perimeters. Davis wonders how staff will keep track of residents’ questions at the public hearing. Linehan thanks SFTF for their perspective, and answers staff will keep track. He
highlights the importance of pushing details out to residents with communications. Gustafson points to the list of available parking spots and states that if everyone wants a resident
pass, parking may be a challenge. Leehy raises concerns about apartment dwellers and their access to parking. Linehan seeks clarification on eligibility in the two designated neighborhoods—specifi
cally, whether residents must live directly on the street or if living on an adjacent street within the zone also qualifies. Removing eligibility for those who live within the area but
not directly on the street could reduce the number of available spaces. It's important to consider both who is impacted and who should be eligible. May notes the affected street. Leehy
adds that apartment dwellers park on city streets in these neighborhoods. Prather wonders about the timeline. Will the contract be multi-year? Linehan explains the proposal is a 3-year
agreement as ParkMobile does have capital investments. If, after the first year, too many free passes were given out, the program could be rolled back. There are no significant contract
costs other than user fees. ParkMobile takes a portion 48 from each day pass. If revenue goals are not reached after the first year, the city can determine not to proceed. Prather suggests
pre-calculating the number of residents. Stephens notes that they are confident in the success of their program, and the city will not incur contractual costs if it does not work out
after one year. The more inventory that is available for visitors, the more revenue it will generate. Residents are aware of the fair and will support the program. Prather points
out that parking spots can be double or triple-booked. Paulus believes it is not welcoming and isn’t sure how e-meter parking would address the quality-of-life issues. While the revenue
is a perk, she believes having the ambassador presence is helpful; fund a positive presence and help alleviate other issues. Charging for parking perpetuates the parking lot image of
Falcon Heights. Mielke suggests doing some audits of current parking on the streets. D. ADJOURNMENT: 9:11 PM Councilmember Meyer motions to adjourn; Approved 4-0 McGarthwaite

of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ Item Approval of Change Order with American Environmental and Budget Amendment for Sewer System Maintenance Description The
City’s entire sanitary sewer system was cleaned and televised this year as part of our sanitary sewer maintenance schedule by American Environmental LLC. The City’s sanitary sewer
cleaning program is on a three-year rotating cleaning schedule where year 1 is east of Snelling, year 2 is west of Snelling, and year three is the entire city, which is this year. The
City competitively bid the contract in a 2014 RFP, selecting American Environmental as the winner. Root intrusion is a common and unknown variable in determining cost. There was a
significant amount of root infiltration that required cutting this year, increasing the cost beyond the budgeted amount and contract amounts. Additionally, the lift station located
at Larpenteur Avenue and Coffman St. adopted a bi-annual cleaning of the pumps, floats, and wet well last year that was not monetarily added into the 2025 budget. Budget Impact

ITEM FOR DISCUSSION City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________
Item Approval of Transfer of $100,000 from Fund 426 to Fund 313 Description The debt on the 2021 G.O. Improvement Bonds in Debt Service Fund 313 shows a negative balance of
approximately $73,000 due to timing issues of when debt levy and assessment payments are received. On the other hand, the 2021 street project capital Fund 426 maintains a positive
balance of over $236,000 due to street expenditures being less than originally estimated. A transfer of funds from Fund 426 in the amount of $100,000 is recommended to clear up this
negative balance in Fund 313 before the City would go out for a bond review. The bond debt levy and assessment payments are not received until July and December. Fifty percent to be
received in July and fifty percent to be received in December. It is estimated that a July debt levy payment of $40,000 and a July assessment payment of $13,000 would not be enough
to remove the negative fund balance. Staff recommends a $100,000 transfer of funds from Fund 426 2021 Street Improvements to Fund 313 2021 G.O. Improvement Debt Service Fund. That
would leave approximately $136,000 balance within the 2021 Street project Fund 426 to fund the estimated 2025 budgeted $120,000 repair expenditures on the 2021 streets. Staff also
recommends amending the associated budgets for these funds. Fund 426: dr cr 426-4426-97000

RECOMMENDATIONS .................................................................................................8 73 4 I. INTRODUCTION The City of Falcon Heights implemented a pavement
management program in 2001 to assist in maintaining and monitoring the performance of the paved street network. This 13- mile long system is one of the City’s largest investments that
would have a significant dollar value if it were to be replaced today. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requires government agencies to report and account for their
infrastructure assets. In June 1999, GASB issued Statement 34 “Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis – for State and Local Governments.” Statement
34 establishes new requirements for the annual financial reports of state and local governments. As part of this new Statement, Governments will report all capital assets, including
infrastructure, in the government-wide statement of net assets and will report depreciation expense. If an agency is managing its infrastructure assets in an asset management system
that has certain characteristics and the government agency can document that the assets are being preserved at or above a condition level established and disclosed by the Modified Approach
for Reporting Infrastructure Assets. The qualifying agency is allowed to make disclosures about the infrastructure assets in required supplementary information that includes the physical
condition of the assets and amounts spent to maintain and preserve them over time. The City of Falcon Heights’ asset management program for its street network is based on the Modified
Approach for Reporting Infrastructure Assets. The software program ICON, which is developed and supported by Goodpointe Technology as a tool for pavement management, was used to inventory
and rate the quality of the pavement on all sections of streets and alleys within the City in 2023. This system uses field surveys to identify distresses and rate the current condition.
Both systems use the segment and distress information to determine the current Pavement Condition Index (PCI) for each segment. The software provides the City with the ability to
determine future needs based on current and past maintenance strategies, and prioritize the appropriate rehabilitation at optimum times. Also, ICON has a Geographic Information System
(GIS) interface to enable easy development of maps showing the results of the analysis. II. FIELD SURVEY OF PAVEMENTS The first step to set up a pavement management program is to
assess the current condition of all pavements to be evaluated by the program. To accomplish this, each street and alley was broken out into segments, intersection to intersection,
and a field survey and evaluation completed for each. There were a total of 152 street and alley segments within the City that were evaluated and will be included in the pavement management
plan’s ICON software database. 74 5 The Army Corps of Engineers’ “Pavement Distress Identification Guide for Asphalt Surfaced Roads and Parking Lots” was used as a basis for the
field survey of the segments. This manual shows types of distress and how to evaluate them. The manual was used as a reference to evaluate the different pavement distresses along
each surveyed segment. Each field survey consisted of evaluating random sample units along each segment. The randomness of the samples helps to ensure a non-partial look at each of
the segments and to better determine an overall PCI rating. Completing a rating over a small isolated distressed area rather than rating the general condition of the entire street
will give the appearance of a street that may need to be reconstructed when in reality it only needs minor spot repairs. The streets were evaluated for the distresses as shown on the
sample Rating Form in the Appendix. III. ICON SOFTWARE When all field surveys were completed, the segment distress information was entered into the ICON software. The information
entered into the software included a general description of each segment with a to-and-from location, length, and width of segment, last known construction date (as available), and
field survey information, including date of inspection and the type and amount of distresses found. A generic date of January 1, 1980, was used for segments where accurate dates were
not available. As future reconstruction projects are completed, these dates will be updated. The ICON software used the survey data and created a database for each segment. This
database was then used by ICON to rate the condition of the pavement and predict future pavement deterioration. These results were used to determine a pavement management plan and
schedule. IV. ICON RESULTS ICON used the information gathered in the field to calculate a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating for each pavement segment. A PCI rating of 100 would
be indicative of a newly constructed street with no distresses, while a rating of 0 would show a completely failed street. Segments then can be grouped into like categories of PCI
ratings to help determine a schedule of maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction. The PCI groups chosen for the City of Falcon heights are as follows: 100 to 66 Adequate;
65 to 36 Marginal; 35 to 0 Poor. This initial PCI rating was based off of a standard Asphalt Pavement Deterioration Curve within the model. (This deterioration curve was created
using test data and does not take into account local deterioration factors. A deterioration model specific to the City’s pavement can be developed as future field surveys are taken.
The software then can take into account the amount of deterioration during a specific period between field surveys. Field surveys should be taken once every three years for accurate
modeling of the PCI 75 6 projections. Deterioration models specific to Falcon Heights will be completed in future phases of this pavement management program. The City’s streets
were last rated in 2022. A weighted average PCI rating for the City’s overall system at that time was calculated to be 69, based on a section’s area and PCI rating. This average accurately
shows the City’s aggressive pavement rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts in the recent past. See Table 1: Street Segments in Alphabetical Order for current PCI ratings. V. PAVEMENT
MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES The PCI rating information generated by the ICON software can be used to determine maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction action necessary for each street
segment. There are several types of street rehabilitation measures that can be used to maintain or restore the condition of the pavement. Below is a brief description of each of these
measures: Localized stopgap (safety), which might be applied to severe localized rutting, potholes, etc.; Localized preventive, which would be used to repair high severity fatigue
cracking, cracking in small quantities, curb and gutter repairs and regular catch basin maintenance; Global preventative maintenance strategies that include crack seal; Pavement
rehabilitation is used when the street is at an established critical rating or above. This might include applying overlays, milling and overlaying, or other surface reconstruction;
Major reconstruction (below the critical rating), which would include cold in place recycling and reconstruction. The street segments in the Adequate PCI category would only require
localized repairs and global preventative maintenance. Street segments in the Marginal category would possibly require repairs and pavement rehabilitation. The street segments in
the Poor category would require reconstruction. The overall goal of this program is to maintain the City’s pavement infrastructure to a high level of service. To maintain this high
level of service within the system, we recommend the following: Maintain a Citywide average PCI rating of 75 or above. Replace curb and gutter that becomes cracked, settled or
holds water. Inspect and repair catch basins and manholes on an annual basis. Schedule mill and overlay for any street section that falls below a PCI rating of 65. Schedule major
rehabilitation or reconstruction for any street section that falls below a PCI rating of 35. 76 7 This can be done through the efforts discussed above. The City currently follows
a systematic and crack sealing and curb and gutter replacement program that is a global preventative strategy for the entire pavement system. Along with crack sealing, the City’s regular
stopgap and localized preventative efforts should also be continued. The goals for the City of Falcon Heights’ pavement management program are based on a review of local pavement
management practices by surrounding cities. Below is a brief summary of pavement management programs being used by other local government agencies. Table Pavement Management Programs

years in order to more accurately project the future PCI ratings and to help properly budget for future major reconstruction projects. Preventative Maintenance: Concrete curb and
gutter are an integral part of the City’s pavement system. Cracked and settled concrete curb and gutter can provide a pathway for water to enter the pavement base materials. The City
repairs and replaces cracked and settled concrete curb and gutter on an annual basis. This program appears to have been working well and should be continued. While the City’s storm
sewer system is not technically a part of the pavement system, lack of catch basin maintenance can result in pavement base materials washing into the storm sewer system, leaving a void
under the pavement, boulevard and sidewalk. These voids result in a sinkhole when the pavement collapses. An inspection and annual maintenance program has been implemented to prevent
future sinkhole failures. This should be performed as needed on all street segments within the Adequate category. Crack seal: City staff reevaluated the City’s crack sealing and
seal coating plan in 2016. Changes to the plan the removal of seal coating until the issue of delamination is better studied. The policy is to crack seal all mill and overlay roads
within 10 years of their construction. Also this work should be performed as needed on all street segments within the Adequate and Marginal categories. Street segments recommended
for major maintenance in the 5 year CIP are not included in the crack sealing projects. Mill and Overlay: There are several maintenance practices that involve milling. An edge
mill typically consists of grinding the old bituminous surface along the outer 8 feet of the street. This helps establish a uniform cross-section, especially in instances where the
crown in the street is relatively flat. A full width mill, or resurfacing, is necessary when the upper surface layer of a pavement has deteriorated considerably. Significant surface
pavement distresses and more extensive “thermal” cracking need to be removed and/or repaired with a full width and uniform depth milling process. Both edge mills and full-width mills
are typically 1.5 to 2 inches thick, but can vary on a project by project basis. Milling creates an even surface to ensure a uniform overall thickness for the new overlay. An asphalt
overlay of 1.5 to 2 inches over the entire pavement width forms a 78 9 smooth crown, renews the street surface, restores structural capacity and proper drainage, and extends the life
cycle of the original pavement up to 15 years. A full depth mill can be used on a street that has already been reconstructed with a good base section, but the pavement has deteriorated
to a point where seal coating or a standard mill and overlay is not effective. A pavement section with significant cracking will end up reflecting through the new pavement. The full
depth of the pavement is ground up and removed. This process may also involve some subgrade soil corrections and some removal of aggregate base, if it has been contaminated or is sub-standard.
The street is paved with the same thickness of new asphalt. This can extend the life cycle of the original pavement between 15 and 20 years. Pavement can also be reclaimed, where
approximately 8 to 10 inches of the existing asphalt and base are ground up in place. This forms a new more stable base without adding new material. The road is then paved with new
asphalt. This is only recommended where there is not sufficient existing road base to provide the needed pavement structure. When there is curb and gutter on the road, material would
need to be removed to ensure that the road elevation is consistent with the gutter once the new pavement thickness is added. This can extend the life cycle of the original pavement
up to 20 years. Mill and overlay is recommended for street segments in the Marginal Category. We have put together a Capital Improvement Program map showing the projects recommended
in the next 5 years. This program consists of Crack Seal and mill and overlay projects. These costs include engineering at 15% of the estimated construction cost. 5-Year Capital

BLANK PAGE 83 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION (RCA) City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota
__________________________ Item Approval of Final Community Park Plans and Authorize Release of Bids Description Overview Staff and project manager WSB are requesting
that the City Council approve the final plans for Community Park and authorize the release of bids for park construction. Bids will be handled by WSB and will be due on May 21st, at
which point final pricing will be determined. WSB will then package the bids for approval at a following City Council meeting to begin demolition of current park amenities and construction
of the new park, which remains on track for substantial completion in late 2025. Background At the February 12th City Council meeting, the City Council authorized the approval of the
50% plan set for Community Park. Since that approval, staff and our consultant, WSB, have been working to finalize plans for bid. The site plans as presented were developed using
the core principles of: A) Keep costs low while improving park amenities. B) Protect and preserve healthy trees whenever possible, and replace if not C) Preserve and leave alone features
that work well, such as the tennis courts, community garden, ball fields and other areas, while improving areas in need of repair. This includes removing the existing condemned park
building, replacing the non-ADA compliant playground, and adding a small splashpad to improve park amenities. The final plans accomplish these goals. In regards to tree preservation,
the plans minimize the removal of trees, and propose the planting of new trees to replace them. The proposed trees in the plans are placeholders, as the Environment Commission has requested
a chance to review the plans. At the March 12th meeting, the City approved the purchase of a pre-fabricated park restroom and shelter building with Cedar Forest Products. Separate
of this request will be a request to approve releasing a bid for a contractor to build and install the Meeting Date April 23, 2025 Agenda Item H1 Attachment(s) See below Submitted By
Jack Linehan, City Administrator 84 shelter/restroom structure. Additionally, the splash pad and playground will be contracted separately. Next Steps Following approval of plans by
the City Council and authorization of the release of bids, WSB will solicit bids following state procurement policies and bid the contract. Once a low bidder is determined, a proposed
contract will be brought to the City Council for final approval. The order for the restroom/shelter building has been placed, so most of the work will include demolition and sitework
to prepare for the installation of the building, playground, splash pad, stormwater basin, and parking lot resurfacing. Budget Impact The total amount budgeted for this project was
$3.5 million in the 2025 Annual Budget. It was estimated that $2 million would come from cash-on-hand, and the City would bond for the additional $1.5 million needed to fund this project.
The current final estimate is that the total project will come in near $2.47 million. The City has a grant application in for $350 thousand in support from the Minnesota Department
of Natural Resources (DNR), which would help offset some of the proposed indirect costs to install rubber surfacing of the playground, add shade structures and build ornamental fencing.
As this grant award will not be determined until July, and contracts related to the playground cannot begin until after grant agreements are completed in early Fall. To accommodate
this timeline, all work relating to the playground is being bid as bid alternates, with the goal that we can award these after we know the status of the DNR grant. Attachment(s) •

CALL TO ORDER: 6:33 PM B. ROLL CALL: GUSTAFSON_X_ LEEHY___ Eric Meyer arrived at 7:24 PM. MIELKE_X_ WASSENBERG_X_ STAFF PRESENT: LINEHAN_X_ JOHNSON_X_ C. POLICY
ITEMS: 1. Continuation or Recap of the 2025 Council Goal Setting Session Wassenberg expressed support for organizing topics into groups, suggesting that each group could be discussed
during a dedicated workshop. Mielke emphasized the importance of prioritization in the process. Linehan outlined the next steps, which include a consultant review and presenting a rough
draft at the April workshop. Following that, specific goals will be prioritized and assigned timelines. 2. State Fair Task Force (SFTF) Recommendation on E-Meter Street Parking Linehan
summarizes that the SFTF and the City Council met in February to discuss the implementation of E-Meters. The current proposal focuses on the Northome and Northeast Quadrant Neighborhoods—areas
with existing free, one-sided street parking. Streets with existing permit-only or no-parking designations would remain unchanged. A map of the proposed areas was shared. Hamline Ave.
and Larpenteur are excluded due to them being county-owned roads. Falcon Woods would remain a free, unrestricted parking area except for its existing permit zone. Other residential
permit parking areas are only applicable during the workweek and are open on the weekends. The Task Force and ParkMobile recommend issuing one complimentary 12-day pass per household
through the ParkMobile app, valid across all parking zones. Residents would register a vehicle (tied to a license plate) to claim their pass. The thought is to allow residents to purchase
extra passes, potentially at a discounted rate. A one-day parking pass would be $25. Police and parking ambassadors would enforce compliance using license plate recognition. Non-registered
vehicles may be ticketed. There was discussion about the logistics of distributing codes: • Wassenberg suggested mailing the codes proactively to all eligible addresses. • Linehan
noted that requiring residents to pick up codes would reduce misuse but increase staff workload. Mailing codes could be easier and promote higher utilization. Currently, they get an
individualized letter with permits. Could use the 36 same idea and the city generates codes. Residents will sign-up through the app which will require them to fill in their license
and registration. • Gustafson emphasized that requiring residents to come to City Hall for a basic pass could create complications and long lines before the fair. Instead, only require
inperson visits for additional passes and make available to request online as well. Mielke explains the logic behind the program. People can’t use ParkMobile to find open spaces. People
will still drive around to look for parking spots. The fair charges for parking, so why shouldn’t Falcon Heights. Other cities can add a sales tax to increase revenue, but Falcon Heights
doesn’t have a large commercial base. Wassenberg adds this would also encourage the use of park and rides. Mielke points out the complimentary resident pass would not guarantee a spot
on the street; it will also not be tied to a zone and makes parking for residents available in all zones. Linehan adds the paid parking for fairgoers is only valid for one day. There
was also a discussion about zone management and enforcement: • Wassenberg wonders how zones should be set up, and what kind of technology is needed to read plates for compliance.
• Linehan explains ParkMobile suggests 1 zone per block. Keep in mind the more zones, the more codes need to be generated, making it more cumbersome. ParkMobile can supply plate-reading
technology for the ambassadors. • Mielke wants to use ParkMobile’s expertise on determining zones and pricing. • Gustafson notes data from the pilot year could help refine zones and
enforcement in the future. • Meyer wonders if ambassadors are paid positions. • Linehan explains ambassadors will be city employees, and would support enforcement and assist fairgoers,
modeled after the St. Paul ambassador program. They can be an extension of SAPD. They will verify vehicles through the app, help guide visitors, and report violations to police. •
Meyer suggests scheduling ambassadors in shifts, having a supervisor and designated break areas (potentially coordinated with churches or local businesses). • Gustafson notes pairing
them up for safety and ending shifts at 8 PM. The council continues to discuss details for the ambassadors, what kind of information is needed from Park Mobile before the public hearing,
and having a rep available. They also discuss creating a FAQ. The council and Linehan discuss revenue, costs, and future planning: • A flat $25 daily parking fee is proposed, with
no added service fees. ParkMobile takes ~20% to cover marketing and administrative costs. • Proceeds will go toward administrative overhead and the city’s capital improvement fund,
ultimately helping to reduce the tax burden. • Examples of capital uses include roads, sewer upgrades, and parks. • Tickets for violations will be $100 and processed through the court
system. • Vehicles will only be towed if they create a safety hazard or remain unmoved for over 48 hours. • The Council will need to adopt an annual ordinance establishing State Fair
parking dates. 37 The Council stresses the need to keep the program simple and minimally disruptive in its first year. If successful, it may expand in the future. The emphasis remains
on balancing revenue generation with convenience for residents and operational efficiency for staff. 3. Release of Request for Proposal (RFP) for Classification and Compensation Study
Consultant Linehan proposes releasing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a classification and compensation study and asked the Council for clarification on the desired scope. He emphasized
the importance of fair and equitable compensation, noting that the city is currently the only one in the area without an established classification and compensation system. Without
pay ranges, it's difficult to complete the required pay equity reports for the state. The proposed study would evaluate positions—not individuals—and recommend a point system or scale
based on job descriptions. Key questions for the RFP scope: • Should the study be limited to full-time employees only, or should it also include part-time, seasonal staff, council members,
and commissioners? • Should the consultant also analyze the city’s benefits package? Including this would increase both the cost and complexity of the study. Council Discussion: •
Meyer asks how much has been budgeted for the study. • Mielke suggests that the benefits analysis could be postponed until next year and that the city might gather benefit comparison
data from other cities in the meantime. • Linehan responds that data from the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) could help benchmark benefits. • Gustafson points out that compensation
includes both salary and benefits, and external insight could be valuable. • Wassenberg questions whether analyzing benefits was worth the additional cost, noting not all employees
fully utilize them. • Gustafson responds that the rising cost of benefits makes them a critical part of total compensation and worth examining. • Mielke proposes asking for both options
in the RFP, itemized separately, so the Council can decide based on cost. Linehan adds that excluding benefits would simplify the study, but notes it’s still important to understand
what benefit offerings could make the city a more competitive and attractive employer. However, benefits analysis can become complex and time intensive. While pay equity remains the
top priority, implementation could be costly depending on the findings. The council agrees that classification and compensation data is important. 4. Future Agenda Topics Linehan
explains the goal-setting session will determine a number of future workshop 38 topics. There is also a public hearing scheduled for license revocation for a Falcon Heights business
depending on communication received from the MN Department of Revenue. Mielke inquires about the upcoming community meeting regarding Dino’s. Linehan explains that the meeting is
intended for immediate neighbors to provide feedback on a potential drive-through proposal at the business’s current location. Before moving forward with a formal application, the business
is seeking preliminary input to gauge neighborhood sentiment. The process would involve a traffic study and the combination of adjacent lots, but the business owner wants to hear from
neighbors first before committing to those expenses. The meeting will take place at City Hall. Linehan emphasizes that this is an informational meeting—residents will not vote, and
the final decision rests with the business owner based on feasibility and community input. Gustafson notes that the proposal would likely require a variance or Planned Unit Development
(PUD). Mielke expresses some concern, referencing the denial of Buhl’s Caribou Coffee drive-through in the past. D. ADJOURNMENT: 9:02 PM DISCLAIMER: City Council Workshops are held
monthly as an opportunity for Council Members to discuss policy topics in greater detail prior to a formal meeting where a public hearing may be held and/or action may be taken. Members
of the public that would like to make a comment or ask questions about an item on the agenda for an upcoming workshop should send them to mail@falconheights.org prior to the meeting.
Alternatively, time is regularly allotted for public comment during Regular City Council Meetings (typically 2nd and 4th Wednesdays) during the Community Forum. _______________________________

explains Consent Agenda Item 2 and provides an updated quote with pricing from Cedar Forest. Some items were removed, and updated pricing was provided today. This brought the total
cost down from $350,000 to $313,000. Consent Agenda Item 8 is part of the 2025 PMP project in the Falcon Woods neighborhood; there is some tree removal needed for stormwater improvements.
The reason for a last-minute addition is the need to comply with environmental regulations, requiring trees to be removed sooner than anticipated. Public Works and Engineering will
work with the residents in the neighborhood on the coordination. The trees are located in the stormwater easement. Mielke wonders how many trees will need to be removed. Linehan is
unsure, but the tree’s location determines the removal. Gustafson thanks Jared for his time on the Environment Commission. Mayor Gustafson motions to approve the consent agenda;
Approved 4-0 H: POLICY ITEMS: I. INFORMATION/ANNOUNCEMENTS: Leehy notes that on Monday, March 17, the Community Engagement Commission will have its first meeting of the year.
There are two vacancies on the commission, and she recommends that residents apply. Mielke explains that the Climate Action Team met last week, and other Falcon Heights organizations
were brought in to help with the goal setting. She also attended the swearing in of the new Ramsey County Commissioner, for District 3. Gustafson explains that some council members
and Administrator Linehan attended LMC’s Day at the Hill and met with Representative Leigh Finke to discuss local priorities. They also met Senator Clare Oumou-Verbeten to discuss regional
priorities with Roseville and Lauderdale. 42 Linehan notes that on March 1, the SAPD officially transitioned to be the police agency for Falcon Heights. They had a Coffee with a Cop
at Amber Union this morning. The AARP Tax Appointments at City Hall are fully booked. Public Works has American Environmental going around the city to clean and televise the main sewer,
all the systems are cleared this year. Upper Cut is also going around trimming and removing boulevard trees. Currently, the City is working on getting a tree replacement program up
and running, but there is not a one-for-one replacement. The council points out hearing positive stories since the police transition. J. COMMUNITY FORUM: Please limit comments to
3 minutes per person. Items brought before the Council will be referred for consideration. Council may ask questions for clarification, but no council action or discussion will be

_X___Prather_X__ Porter___ STAFF PRESENT: LINEHAN_X__ JOHNSON_X_ C. POLICY ITEMS: 1. Continuation of Discussion on E-Meter Parking Gustafson explains that the
Council discussed this item at their latest Council Workshop and that they went through several questions. Both groups differed on how the free parking codes/passes will be disbursed
to residents, and how many. Wassenberg advocated for a non-complicated method with the least amount of impact on residents and staff time, and the Council agreed. This item needs to
be revisited, as the State Fair Task Force (SFTF) did not fully agree with this method. McGarthwaite explains mailing a pass/code to every resident will not work, because not every
resident always receives mail. Providing a free code to everyone can also lead to abuse, decreased value, and the codes still need to be registered and activated with ParkMobile.
Gustafson and Leehy wonder what the SFTF’s goal of the e-meter parking program is. Mielke comments that the idea is to create a new revenue stream for Falcon Heights, to help cover
expenses generated by the State Fair. If it is not generating revenue, it’s not a worthwhile project to further explore. McGarthwaite adds it’s also a quality-of-life issue and she
believes people who need to pay will take better care. It can also push parkers to Park & Rides and says all of the traffic also already impacts the quality of life of residents. Residents
will need to pay for a second “residential permit;” worries about depleting the process. Leehy appreciates the process that has been thought out. 45 Allard believes the quality of
life will always be questionable around fair time, but at least there will be a revenue stream. Leehy wonders if the SFTF looked at other vendors as well. McGarthwaite notes this
is the only vendor that was approached. ParkMobile has the largest number of users in Minnesota, and people are familiar with it. May emphasizes the importance of finding a balance
between maximizing revenue and not creating a hassle for residents. Limiting the number of permits issued to residents avoids taking up all the spots. Davis wants to ensure the council
is accepting of the offer made by SFTF to have e-meter parking during the State Fair and other major events. She wants the SFTF to work through the details. May adds this will benefit
all residents of Falcon Heights. Northome and NE Quadrant have the highest density of parkers during the fair and so it makes sense to test the program there first. Following the pilot
year, they can discuss the experience and potentially expand to other areas or add entities. Davis is fearful that giving too much parking away would take away the revenue. Leehy
notes there is no opposition, but she wants to ensure all the details are worked through before presenting it to residents. Gustafson agrees. The council wants to think of concepts
and ideas further downstream, so they are trying to gather as much information as they can and to consider all impacts before presenting it to residents. Gustafson reiterates that the
council is favorable to exploring the concept. Mielke adds that the point is to ease parking stress for the neighborhoods. Gustafson sees the concept as a positive, but there are also
logistical issues that need to be worked out. Linehan points out that the city would hire staff to work as parking ambassadors, as the St. Anthony Police Department (SAPD) prefers
it not be officers who use the app. They will be notified by parking ambassadors that utilize the ParkMobile app of any parking violations. SAPD does not have the capacity to utilize
the app, but they will be responsible for ticket enforcement. McGarthwaite moves on to other areas they discussed, which were communications and staffing. Yes, it will be complicated
for staff and residents, but the SFTF believes it will be first-year pains. Linehan has provided communication plans. Leehy previously resided in Northome and did not feel like it
was an inconvenience to acquire a parking permit/pass. There should be a specific timeframe, so it doesn’t happen last minute. Meyer believes people who are in need of parking passes
will come into City Hall. He supports a mailing to make residents aware and offering an online application as well. He believes the price point for a second permit needs to be determined
and agrees there should not be a third permit for residents. Council and SFTF agree that there should be a State Fair guide again. Gustafson asks ParkMobile about the enforcement
of visitors who did not pay for parking. 46 Rob Stephens is the Regional Sales Manager for ParkMobile. He is familiar with smaller city parking regulations. There can be one 12-day
code for residents that only needs to be entered once. Whereas visitors have to pay every single time they park. Regarding enforcement, there is a ParkMobile tool to check parking payments.
It allows someone to check a plate against payment. Various integrations are possible. There is no extra cost for the enforcement. ParkMobile is the largest e-meter parking company
in the US. He lists other places where ParkMobile is active. Because of the familiarity, it is a good emeter parking program to use, because most people will already have the app on
their phone. This makes it as easy as possible to ensure compliance. He likes the idea of having ambassadors to increase visibility on the street, which will also drive compliance.
Allard wonders how the pre-payment process works. Stephens explains the code is valid for one license plate for 12 days. Stephens believed the one-time code would be most efficient
for residents. Residents need to come to City Hall to acquire the code. Having as much inventory on the street for visitors is important. May notes from a resident's standpoint, the
parking will be the same with or without emeter parking. Gustafson adds that a communication method between SAPD and ambassadors needs to be determined. Mielke suggests offering
resident codes as early as possible, having a deadline the day before the fair, and making Saturdays available as well for residents to acquire a reservation. When residents come in,
staff can apply the code to their license plate. They would never have to enter the code themselves. Leehy suggests making the parking ambassador program available to teenagers and
seniors of Falcon Heights and have them pair up. Prather adds teenagers are able to help users with the app. Stephens explains there is also an account management team that can help
with whatever process is decided. Gustafson wonders how the zones should be determined. Stephens notes having different zones is easier, as for enforcement would utilize a list to
cross-reference. Linehan explains the process will be similar for staff for mailing them all out or having residents come in for a back-end perspective. Residents should be able to
park in all zones, as parking will still be first come, first served. Stephens points out it should be looked at it by zone and not by plate. The search function of the app does not
allow searching by plate. Davis wonders what is easier for the city, to purchase codes in bulk or to purchase them one at a time as residents come in. Stephens explains it’s easier
to acquire them all at once. 47 Gustafson wants to ensure that everyone is prepared to answer questions from the public for the March 26 public hearing. All residents will be notified
and will have to come into City Hall for one complimentary pass, and number two can be acquired for a certain dollar amount. But the second parking spot will need to be determined based
on inventory. McGarthwaite adds ParkMobile will provide signage for visitors to acquire day passes. May says a lot of progress has been made and summarizes the decisions that have
been made: - Affected residents have the option to come into City Hall to get a resident pass. - Visitors will have to purchase parking through ParkMobile. - Training will be provided
by ParkMobile. - Ambassadors will be hired to check plates for compliance and they will inform SAPD of parking infraction; SAPD will do ticketing - Signs will be provided by ParkMobile
and additional communications will be done as well. Meyer adds if there is a hard cap on the number of resident passes that are available, it would help determine the amount of second
passes that can be offered. Allard notes it would be hard to determine how many people would need a pass. It is important to note that they are limited. Davis says to make the second
pass first come, first served. The Council and SFTF agree that this program does not rely on getting funding from the federal or state level. McGarthwaite adds it might not feel
welcoming, but people are not parking here to visit Falcon Heights, they are here to park their car to attend the State Fair. Leehy agrees that we can still be welcoming but can have
perimeters. Davis wonders how staff will keep track of residents’ questions at the public hearing. Linehan thanks SFTF for their perspective, and answers staff will keep track. He
highlights the importance of pushing details out to residents with communications. Gustafson points to the list of available parking spots and states that if everyone wants a resident
pass, parking may be a challenge. Leehy raises concerns about apartment dwellers and their access to parking. Linehan seeks clarification on eligibility in the two designated neighborhoods—specifi
cally, whether residents must live directly on the street or if living on an adjacent street within the zone also qualifies. Removing eligibility for those who live within the area but
not directly on the street could reduce the number of available spaces. It's important to consider both who is impacted and who should be eligible. May notes the affected street. Leehy
adds that apartment dwellers park on city streets in these neighborhoods. Prather wonders about the timeline. Will the contract be multi-year? Linehan explains the proposal is a 3-year
agreement as ParkMobile does have capital investments. If, after the first year, too many free passes were given out, the program could be rolled back. There are no significant contract
costs other than user fees. ParkMobile takes a portion 48 from each day pass. If revenue goals are not reached after the first year, the city can determine not to proceed. Prather suggests
pre-calculating the number of residents. Stephens notes that they are confident in the success of their program, and the city will not incur contractual costs if it does not work out
after one year. The more inventory that is available for visitors, the more revenue it will generate. Residents are aware of the fair and will support the program. Prather points
out that parking spots can be double or triple-booked. Paulus believes it is not welcoming and isn’t sure how e-meter parking would address the quality-of-life issues. While the revenue
is a perk, she believes having the ambassador presence is helpful; fund a positive presence and help alleviate other issues. Charging for parking perpetuates the parking lot image of
Falcon Heights. Mielke suggests doing some audits of current parking on the streets. D. ADJOURNMENT: 9:11 PM Councilmember Meyer motions to adjourn; Approved 4-0 McGarthwaite

of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________ Item Approval of Change Order with American Environmental and Budget Amendment for Sewer System Maintenance Description The
City’s entire sanitary sewer system was cleaned and televised this year as part of our sanitary sewer maintenance schedule by American Environmental LLC. The City’s sanitary sewer
cleaning program is on a three-year rotating cleaning schedule where year 1 is east of Snelling, year 2 is west of Snelling, and year three is the entire city, which is this year. The
City competitively bid the contract in a 2014 RFP, selecting American Environmental as the winner. Root intrusion is a common and unknown variable in determining cost. There was a
significant amount of root infiltration that required cutting this year, increasing the cost beyond the budgeted amount and contract amounts. Additionally, the lift station located
at Larpenteur Avenue and Coffman St. adopted a bi-annual cleaning of the pumps, floats, and wet well last year that was not monetarily added into the 2025 budget. Budget Impact

ITEM FOR DISCUSSION City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota __________________________
Item Approval of Transfer of $100,000 from Fund 426 to Fund 313 Description The debt on the 2021 G.O. Improvement Bonds in Debt Service Fund 313 shows a negative balance of
approximately $73,000 due to timing issues of when debt levy and assessment payments are received. On the other hand, the 2021 street project capital Fund 426 maintains a positive
balance of over $236,000 due to street expenditures being less than originally estimated. A transfer of funds from Fund 426 in the amount of $100,000 is recommended to clear up this
negative balance in Fund 313 before the City would go out for a bond review. The bond debt levy and assessment payments are not received until July and December. Fifty percent to be
received in July and fifty percent to be received in December. It is estimated that a July debt levy payment of $40,000 and a July assessment payment of $13,000 would not be enough
to remove the negative fund balance. Staff recommends a $100,000 transfer of funds from Fund 426 2021 Street Improvements to Fund 313 2021 G.O. Improvement Debt Service Fund. That
would leave approximately $136,000 balance within the 2021 Street project Fund 426 to fund the estimated 2025 budgeted $120,000 repair expenditures on the 2021 streets. Staff also
recommends amending the associated budgets for these funds. Fund 426: dr cr 426-4426-97000

RECOMMENDATIONS .................................................................................................8 73 4 I. INTRODUCTION The City of Falcon Heights implemented a pavement
management program in 2001 to assist in maintaining and monitoring the performance of the paved street network. This 13- mile long system is one of the City’s largest investments that
would have a significant dollar value if it were to be replaced today. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requires government agencies to report and account for their
infrastructure assets. In June 1999, GASB issued Statement 34 “Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis – for State and Local Governments.” Statement
34 establishes new requirements for the annual financial reports of state and local governments. As part of this new Statement, Governments will report all capital assets, including
infrastructure, in the government-wide statement of net assets and will report depreciation expense. If an agency is managing its infrastructure assets in an asset management system
that has certain characteristics and the government agency can document that the assets are being preserved at or above a condition level established and disclosed by the Modified Approach
for Reporting Infrastructure Assets. The qualifying agency is allowed to make disclosures about the infrastructure assets in required supplementary information that includes the physical
condition of the assets and amounts spent to maintain and preserve them over time. The City of Falcon Heights’ asset management program for its street network is based on the Modified
Approach for Reporting Infrastructure Assets. The software program ICON, which is developed and supported by Goodpointe Technology as a tool for pavement management, was used to inventory
and rate the quality of the pavement on all sections of streets and alleys within the City in 2023. This system uses field surveys to identify distresses and rate the current condition.
Both systems use the segment and distress information to determine the current Pavement Condition Index (PCI) for each segment. The software provides the City with the ability to
determine future needs based on current and past maintenance strategies, and prioritize the appropriate rehabilitation at optimum times. Also, ICON has a Geographic Information System
(GIS) interface to enable easy development of maps showing the results of the analysis. II. FIELD SURVEY OF PAVEMENTS The first step to set up a pavement management program is to
assess the current condition of all pavements to be evaluated by the program. To accomplish this, each street and alley was broken out into segments, intersection to intersection,
and a field survey and evaluation completed for each. There were a total of 152 street and alley segments within the City that were evaluated and will be included in the pavement management
plan’s ICON software database. 74 5 The Army Corps of Engineers’ “Pavement Distress Identification Guide for Asphalt Surfaced Roads and Parking Lots” was used as a basis for the
field survey of the segments. This manual shows types of distress and how to evaluate them. The manual was used as a reference to evaluate the different pavement distresses along
each surveyed segment. Each field survey consisted of evaluating random sample units along each segment. The randomness of the samples helps to ensure a non-partial look at each of
the segments and to better determine an overall PCI rating. Completing a rating over a small isolated distressed area rather than rating the general condition of the entire street
will give the appearance of a street that may need to be reconstructed when in reality it only needs minor spot repairs. The streets were evaluated for the distresses as shown on the
sample Rating Form in the Appendix. III. ICON SOFTWARE When all field surveys were completed, the segment distress information was entered into the ICON software. The information
entered into the software included a general description of each segment with a to-and-from location, length, and width of segment, last known construction date (as available), and
field survey information, including date of inspection and the type and amount of distresses found. A generic date of January 1, 1980, was used for segments where accurate dates were
not available. As future reconstruction projects are completed, these dates will be updated. The ICON software used the survey data and created a database for each segment. This
database was then used by ICON to rate the condition of the pavement and predict future pavement deterioration. These results were used to determine a pavement management plan and
schedule. IV. ICON RESULTS ICON used the information gathered in the field to calculate a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating for each pavement segment. A PCI rating of 100 would
be indicative of a newly constructed street with no distresses, while a rating of 0 would show a completely failed street. Segments then can be grouped into like categories of PCI
ratings to help determine a schedule of maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction. The PCI groups chosen for the City of Falcon heights are as follows: 100 to 66 Adequate;
65 to 36 Marginal; 35 to 0 Poor. This initial PCI rating was based off of a standard Asphalt Pavement Deterioration Curve within the model. (This deterioration curve was created
using test data and does not take into account local deterioration factors. A deterioration model specific to the City’s pavement can be developed as future field surveys are taken.
The software then can take into account the amount of deterioration during a specific period between field surveys. Field surveys should be taken once every three years for accurate
modeling of the PCI 75 6 projections. Deterioration models specific to Falcon Heights will be completed in future phases of this pavement management program. The City’s streets
were last rated in 2022. A weighted average PCI rating for the City’s overall system at that time was calculated to be 69, based on a section’s area and PCI rating. This average accurately
shows the City’s aggressive pavement rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts in the recent past. See Table 1: Street Segments in Alphabetical Order for current PCI ratings. V. PAVEMENT
MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES The PCI rating information generated by the ICON software can be used to determine maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction action necessary for each street
segment. There are several types of street rehabilitation measures that can be used to maintain or restore the condition of the pavement. Below is a brief description of each of these
measures: Localized stopgap (safety), which might be applied to severe localized rutting, potholes, etc.; Localized preventive, which would be used to repair high severity fatigue
cracking, cracking in small quantities, curb and gutter repairs and regular catch basin maintenance; Global preventative maintenance strategies that include crack seal; Pavement
rehabilitation is used when the street is at an established critical rating or above. This might include applying overlays, milling and overlaying, or other surface reconstruction;
Major reconstruction (below the critical rating), which would include cold in place recycling and reconstruction. The street segments in the Adequate PCI category would only require
localized repairs and global preventative maintenance. Street segments in the Marginal category would possibly require repairs and pavement rehabilitation. The street segments in
the Poor category would require reconstruction. The overall goal of this program is to maintain the City’s pavement infrastructure to a high level of service. To maintain this high
level of service within the system, we recommend the following: Maintain a Citywide average PCI rating of 75 or above. Replace curb and gutter that becomes cracked, settled or
holds water. Inspect and repair catch basins and manholes on an annual basis. Schedule mill and overlay for any street section that falls below a PCI rating of 65. Schedule major
rehabilitation or reconstruction for any street section that falls below a PCI rating of 35. 76 7 This can be done through the efforts discussed above. The City currently follows
a systematic and crack sealing and curb and gutter replacement program that is a global preventative strategy for the entire pavement system. Along with crack sealing, the City’s regular
stopgap and localized preventative efforts should also be continued. The goals for the City of Falcon Heights’ pavement management program are based on a review of local pavement
management practices by surrounding cities. Below is a brief summary of pavement management programs being used by other local government agencies. Table Pavement Management Programs

years in order to more accurately project the future PCI ratings and to help properly budget for future major reconstruction projects. Preventative Maintenance: Concrete curb and
gutter are an integral part of the City’s pavement system. Cracked and settled concrete curb and gutter can provide a pathway for water to enter the pavement base materials. The City
repairs and replaces cracked and settled concrete curb and gutter on an annual basis. This program appears to have been working well and should be continued. While the City’s storm
sewer system is not technically a part of the pavement system, lack of catch basin maintenance can result in pavement base materials washing into the storm sewer system, leaving a void
under the pavement, boulevard and sidewalk. These voids result in a sinkhole when the pavement collapses. An inspection and annual maintenance program has been implemented to prevent
future sinkhole failures. This should be performed as needed on all street segments within the Adequate category. Crack seal: City staff reevaluated the City’s crack sealing and
seal coating plan in 2016. Changes to the plan the removal of seal coating until the issue of delamination is better studied. The policy is to crack seal all mill and overlay roads
within 10 years of their construction. Also this work should be performed as needed on all street segments within the Adequate and Marginal categories. Street segments recommended
for major maintenance in the 5 year CIP are not included in the crack sealing projects. Mill and Overlay: There are several maintenance practices that involve milling. An edge
mill typically consists of grinding the old bituminous surface along the outer 8 feet of the street. This helps establish a uniform cross-section, especially in instances where the
crown in the street is relatively flat. A full width mill, or resurfacing, is necessary when the upper surface layer of a pavement has deteriorated considerably. Significant surface
pavement distresses and more extensive “thermal” cracking need to be removed and/or repaired with a full width and uniform depth milling process. Both edge mills and full-width mills
are typically 1.5 to 2 inches thick, but can vary on a project by project basis. Milling creates an even surface to ensure a uniform overall thickness for the new overlay. An asphalt
overlay of 1.5 to 2 inches over the entire pavement width forms a 78 9 smooth crown, renews the street surface, restores structural capacity and proper drainage, and extends the life
cycle of the original pavement up to 15 years. A full depth mill can be used on a street that has already been reconstructed with a good base section, but the pavement has deteriorated
to a point where seal coating or a standard mill and overlay is not effective. A pavement section with significant cracking will end up reflecting through the new pavement. The full
depth of the pavement is ground up and removed. This process may also involve some subgrade soil corrections and some removal of aggregate base, if it has been contaminated or is sub-standard.
The street is paved with the same thickness of new asphalt. This can extend the life cycle of the original pavement between 15 and 20 years. Pavement can also be reclaimed, where
approximately 8 to 10 inches of the existing asphalt and base are ground up in place. This forms a new more stable base without adding new material. The road is then paved with new
asphalt. This is only recommended where there is not sufficient existing road base to provide the needed pavement structure. When there is curb and gutter on the road, material would
need to be removed to ensure that the road elevation is consistent with the gutter once the new pavement thickness is added. This can extend the life cycle of the original pavement
up to 20 years. Mill and overlay is recommended for street segments in the Marginal Category. We have put together a Capital Improvement Program map showing the projects recommended
in the next 5 years. This program consists of Crack Seal and mill and overlay projects. These costs include engineering at 15% of the estimated construction cost. 5-Year Capital

BLANK PAGE 83 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION (RCA) City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota
__________________________ Item Approval of Final Community Park Plans and Authorize Release of Bids Description Overview Staff and project manager WSB are requesting
that the City Council approve the final plans for Community Park and authorize the release of bids for park construction. Bids will be handled by WSB and will be due on May 21st, at
which point final pricing will be determined. WSB will then package the bids for approval at a following City Council meeting to begin demolition of current park amenities and construction
of the new park, which remains on track for substantial completion in late 2025. Background At the February 12th City Council meeting, the City Council authorized the approval of the
50% plan set for Community Park. Since that approval, staff and our consultant, WSB, have been working to finalize plans for bid. The site plans as presented were developed using
the core principles of: A) Keep costs low while improving park amenities. B) Protect and preserve healthy trees whenever possible, and replace if not C) Preserve and leave alone features
that work well, such as the tennis courts, community garden, ball fields and other areas, while improving areas in need of repair. This includes removing the existing condemned park
building, replacing the non-ADA compliant playground, and adding a small splashpad to improve park amenities. The final plans accomplish these goals. In regards to tree preservation,
the plans minimize the removal of trees, and propose the planting of new trees to replace them. The proposed trees in the plans are placeholders, as the Environment Commission has requested
a chance to review the plans. At the March 12th meeting, the City approved the purchase of a pre-fabricated park restroom and shelter building with Cedar Forest Products. Separate
of this request will be a request to approve releasing a bid for a contractor to build and install the Meeting Date April 23, 2025 Agenda Item H1 Attachment(s) See below Submitted By
Jack Linehan, City Administrator 84 shelter/restroom structure. Additionally, the splash pad and playground will be contracted separately. Next Steps Following approval of plans by
the City Council and authorization of the release of bids, WSB will solicit bids following state procurement policies and bid the contract. Once a low bidder is determined, a proposed
contract will be brought to the City Council for final approval. The order for the restroom/shelter building has been placed, so most of the work will include demolition and sitework
to prepare for the installation of the building, playground, splash pad, stormwater basin, and parking lot resurfacing. Budget Impact The total amount budgeted for this project was
$3.5 million in the 2025 Annual Budget. It was estimated that $2 million would come from cash-on-hand, and the City would bond for the additional $1.5 million needed to fund this project.
The current final estimate is that the total project will come in near $2.47 million. The City has a grant application in for $350 thousand in support from the Minnesota Department
of Natural Resources (DNR), which would help offset some of the proposed indirect costs to install rubber surfacing of the playground, add shade structures and build ornamental fencing.
As this grant award will not be determined until July, and contracts related to the playground cannot begin until after grant agreements are completed in early Fall. To accommodate
this timeline, all work relating to the playground is being bid as bid alternates, with the goal that we can award these after we know the status of the DNR grant. Attachment(s) •

Not moved. Minutes not available to approve.
NEW BUSINESS –
Park Mobile Parking Program
Update from Work Group on Models/Budget Estimates
Per Member May: Prather, May and Wassenberg comprised Subgroup
Subgroup doesn’t make decisions, only attempted a budget. Strong desire to meet all expenses
Falcon Heights Fair impact is hard to determine, although $80,000 is the approximate cost
All Events- Approximate Historical Costs
O.T. Police: $35,000
O.T. Public Works: $5,000 < (Signs, Porta Potties, etc.)
O.T. Staff: $42,000
Handout –(Included) shows Potential Budget for Park Mobile Program
Incorporates Park mobile costs
Range is $100,000-$250,000 of Revenue
Discussion to keep revenue numbers very conservative and overestimate costs to reduce chance of failure with the program
Will be sent to May 7th (6:30pm) Council Workshop
Change the name of the program to avoid the verbiage “E-Meter”, which is a term utilized for a Church of Scientology device
Direction from City Council:
Explore recommendations for increasing the number of passes to be provided to residents.
Motion 1: Recommendation that Falcon Heights City Hall mail the 1st (gratis) pass to impacted residents with immediate option of 2nd (gratis) pass upon request. Additional option to
apply in person for a 3rd/4th pass if there is a hardship. APPROVED 9-0
Falcon Heights City Hall plans to be open during the Fair so that residents may acquire tags mid-Fair, if needed
Determine Format for Passes (Digital, Hangtag, etc.)
Recommend using Hangtag Format to reduce costs and alleviate some resident concerns
Revisit Pricing Discussion- Fixed Rate Citywide or Zone-by-Zone Rate
Councilmember Meyer made a request as a resident that the farther portions of Falcon Heights should be considered for a lower rate
Discussion resulted in a motion to “keep it simple” for this cycle and readdress next year
Motion 2: Recommendation that the fee be a fixed $25 for all zones in Northome and NE. APPROVED 9-0
Request for Consideration- No Parking on North/South Streets in Northome for Alleyway Access
Motion 3: Recommend that Falcon Heights City Council change the “Albert/Pascal/Arona area from Hoyt to Larpenteur to Permit only area during the Fair.
Permitting these approximately 75 spots will offer a benefit to residents and potential improves alley awareness in the area

Hi
Here is a summary that was made from the last meeting.
It was a group project.
Thanks
Mona
Recommendations from the State Fair Task Force based on discussion at April 16 meeting
Key assumptions:
Safety for visitors and residents alike
Recommendations based in part on feedback of residents
In this initial roll-out, keep it simple and easy to understand for all involved
Cover expenses incurred by the City during the State Fair
Consistency with permit parking areas in other neighborhoods.
Recommendation
Discussion Points
Format for resident permit/parking pass, number of hang tags per household on impacted streets, distribution process
Recommendation to provide one (1) hang-tag pass to be mailed to all households on impacted streets, with information on how to obtain a second one through online form , mailing back
a form, or other mechanisms determined by staff. Residents can then request a 3rd and/or 4th pass by completing a hardship waiver form in-person at City Hall, reviewed by staff. Approved
9-0
The rationale is that hang tags allow residents to move parking permit among vehicles and will be easy for Parking Ambassadors to spot. SFTF also discussed having a unique identifier
number on each tag, and re-using hang tags in the future using a dated sticker.
Our approach here is to "under promise/over deliver" by keeping the process as simple as possible while engaging residents in thinking about how many hang tags they need. <
The process for requesting additional passes is similar that currently used for parking permits in other parts of FH.
Pricing for those using Park Mobile
Motion to make $25 the cost city-wide. Approved 9-0
The rationale was to keep the program simpler in this first year to make communication of price clear to visitors, then gather data on use and visitor responses during the State Fair
2025. Because the implications for income associated with differential pricing across areas of FH are not easy to predict, the desire for simplicity was the primary motivation for
a single pricing system.
North/South Streets in Northome (Arona, Pascal and Albert)
Motion to make Albert, Pascal and parts of Arona in the Northome neighborhood State Fair Parking by Resident Permit Only (to address alleyway access concerns). Approved 9-0.
▪ Hang-tag permits would apply. Staff would still mark alleyways distances to avoid obstructions.
In response to residents’ concerns about the safety of exiting driveways and alleys on N/S streets in Northome during the State Fair, Georgiana and Mona recommended eliminating visitor
parking on the west side of Pascal and Albert streets where it is currently allowed. The SFTF suggested thatand have the west side of these N/S streets be used for resident permit parking
only (hangtags).
Arona:
There are stretches on the east side of Arona, both south and north of Larpenteur, that are already permit parking only during the State Fair. In addition parking is currently allowed
on the west side of Arona south of Larpenteur. These spots could be retained for residents in the townhomes and apartments. <
* FH Staff could contact apartment and townhome managers to discuss the best way to identify residents/households that may need parking on Arona.
We also noted residents' concerns about speeding, blowing stop signs, etc. on these streets. These concerns will not necessarily be resolved by resident-only parking. We request that
the Council and Jack discuss such issues with SAPD.

Thank you Mona, this is super helpful to have come from the SFTF directly for the Council's workshop next week.
I'll format it a bit and include as an attachment for the workshop.
