Les Bolstad Golf Course Redevelopment - Introduction from Rachel Development & Preliminary Overview of RFP Submission Concept Plans City Administrator lack Linehan prouided introductory remarks, including a project background and timeline, and outlined the format and expectations for the eaening's meeting. Administrator Linehnn summaized the key milestones leading to the meeting: the City's adoption of the Snelling and Larenteur Corridor Study in Noaember 2024; the Uniaersity of Minnesota's annor.tncement in lune 2025 of its intent to dispose of the Les Bolstad Golf Course; city-hosted open house in September 2025 to gather community feedback; the Uniaersity's release of its RFP in October 2025, with purchnse price as tht primary weighted criterion; RFP responses due in December 2025; the Gty Council's assembly of the CAC in April2026; and the Uniaersity's nnnouncement in lune 2026 thnt Rachel Deuelopment hnd zuon the RFP. Administrator Linehnn explained thnt no questions or comments wouldbe taken from council members, CAC members, or the public duing the presentation, as this zuas the first opportunity for most attendees to aiezu the RFP submission plans. He noted thst the presentation, a uideo recording of the meeting, nnd addihonal information would be published to the city's uebsite on Thursday morning, along zoith an email notification to newsletter sr.tbscribers. Administrator Linehan also clarified thnt this presentation did not constitute an fficial submission to the city and thnt the plans would be subject to modification through the ongoing collaborntiae process. Paul Robinson, Deaelopment Director for Rachel Deoelopment, introducedhimself and his colleagtLes. He described his background, zohich included nine years zoorking for municipalities -including six years as Gty Administrator of Edina-before transitioning to the priaate deuelopment sector wer the past 24 years. He highlighted the Woodland Coae deuelopment in Minnetista as n compnrnble project inaolaing mixed product types, commercial uses, and complex mulh-agency coordination. Daaid Stradtman, Vice President of Deaelopment for Rachel Deaelopment, proaided background on Rachel Deuelopment and its related company, Rachel Contracting, a St. Michael-based specialty contractor zuith expertise in earthwork, utilities, demolition, and enuironmental remediation of golf course properties. Mr . Stradtman noted his 30 years of experience in dnelopment, including work in retail and land acquisition. PauI Heuer, representing Pulte Homes, described his background as a former consulting city engineer and his 24 years of expeience creating residential neighborhoods across the Twin Cities, including seaeral redeuelopment projects and a pior golf course redeaelopment. 15 Stephanie Grffin, Vice President of Land Acquisihon for MI Homes, described her background as a third-generation female deueloper in the Twin Cities market. She noted thnt MI Homes, s national homebuilder based in Columbus, Ohio, had deep local roots throughits predecessor company, Hans Hagen Homes. She highlighted thnt Pulte, MI Homes, and Rachel Deuelopment had preaiously collaborated on projects, including Woodland Coae and a deuelopmentinWaconia. Mr. Robinson presented an oaeruiezo of the approximately 140-acre site, coueing topography, drainage, stormwater manngement, wetlands, andutility infrastructure. He described an eleaation change of approximately 70 feet across the site, with drainage split betueen the Rice Creek Watershed District to the north and the Capitol Regton WatershedDistict to the south. He noted that modern deaelopment standards zuould require dedicnting approximately 7-10 percent of the gross land area to stormzoater trentment, and that existing open uater ruetlsnds would likely be incorporated into the s t ormu ate r management sy s t em. Regarding uetlands, Mr. Robinson indicated that preliminary nnalysis identified approximately 3 acres of uetlands across 10-11 locations, zoith an estimated three- quarters of an acre potentially stfuject to impact and requiring zoetland credit replacement through established mitigation progrnms. He noted that formal zuetland delineation had not yet been completed. On uhlihes, Mr. Robinson identified potential sanitary seLler connection points on Roselawn to the northeast and along Larpenteur to tht south, and noted possible connections in the neighboring cities of Lauderdale and Roseuille pending capacity \ analysis. He stated that the primary zoater source zoas anticipated to be the trunk water main along Larpenteur, per correspondence from St. Paul RegionalWater Sentices, uith pressure and capacity stud:ies to follow. Mr. Robinson also reaiezued the surrounding neighborhood context, noting a general pattern of more suburban character to the north transitioning to greater density approaching Larpenteur to the south, which informed the ouerall organization of the proposed site plan. Mr. Robinson explained thnt the site plan was prepared in response to the Uniaerstty of Minnesota's RFP and zoas intended to establishaalue and demonstrate an implementable concept rather thnn represent a finalized plan. He emphasized that the plan closely follozoed the A$'s uisioning committee goals and guiding principles, as well as the extrapolated land use plan that had grozun out of the 2024 corridor study. He presented the plan in the context of tlrc six uisioning committee goals: Connectiuity: The plan proposes connecting to four or fioe streets in both Lauderdale and Roseaille, all releuant connections wilhin Falcon Heights, and a trails and sidewalk network linking sub-neighborhoods to adjacent parks, Gibbs Farm, the BeII Museum, and othtr amenities. Only one cul-de-sac is included in the entire deaelopment. Mr. Robinson 16 described a more grid-Iike street pattern along site edges adjacent to existing neighborhoods, transitioning to a more curcilinear interior pattern zohere natural features such as wetlands and greenways require it. Green Space: The plan dedicates approximately 17.2 upland acres (about 12 percent of the site) and roughly 30 total acres (approximately 20 percent) to open space, uhich Mr. Robinson indicated would exceed the open space proportion of the Hillcrest deoelopment. A public trail system would run through all open space areas. A notable feature is a southern greenzuay corridor approximately 1.00 feet wide running east-zoest along the south property line, prouiding a trail connection betueen parks and preseraing mature trees. Mr. Robinson also descibed a " greenway parkzoay" expeience along Coftnan, zoith a seies of open space aiezos and bffirs encountered when traaeling through the site. He acknowledged that while tree presen:ation would be limited gioen the distribution of trees across the golf course, hundreds ofneu trees wouldbe planted thr oughout tht deaelopment. Self-Sustaining: Mr. Robinson expressed confdence that the deuelopment's assessed aalues - anticipated to meet or exceed the current Fnlcon Heights aaerage home aalue range of approximately $385,000-$420,000 -would generate sufficient property tax reaenue to sustain city sercices uithout placing additional burden on existing infrastructure. All ptLblic infrastructure within the dnelopment would be constructed at the deueloper's expense using modern, durable materials. Housing Mix: The plan incorporates ten distinct product types, including rear-load alley single-family homes, S}-foot-zoide uilla-style single-family homes for empty nesters with HOAmaintenance, tuto-story carriage townhomes, three-story urban tozunhomes, mqrket-rate apartments, a combined independent and assisted liaing/memory care senior facility, and a commercial component. All single-family lots are proposed to be smaller thnn 10,000 square feet. Higher density uses are concentrated along Larpenteur, consistent zoith tln uisioning goals. The plan contemplates a range of approximately 1-,400 to L,800 total units depending on density scenario, equating to approximately 1"3- 16 units per ncre across the site. Ms. Grffin presented MI Homes' product offeings, and Mr. Heuer presented Pulte Homes' ffirings, eacLt emphasizing the complementary nah.re of their respectiae home types and the diaersity of buyers eacLtproduct would attract. Mr. Stradtman described Rachel Deaelopment's multifamily component, noting planned market-rate apartments along Larpenteur and a senior liaing complex combining memory care, assisted liaing, and independent liaing in a campus format. He also described a commercial area of approximately 4.75 acres along Larpenteur that could support seruice retail, standalone commercial, or mixed-use deaelopment zoith residential aboue, depending on market conditions and further discussions uith the city and Met CotLncil r egar ding density r e quir ements. Sustainability: Mr. Robinson referenced the significant improaement inhome energy fficiency standards since 2006, noting that aaerage HERS ratings hnd improuedfrom 't7 approximately L00 to the mid-4}s. He noted thnt Pulte and MI Homes ffir solar-rendy options and electic aehicle chnrger options for single-family products. For multifamily buildings, the deuelopment would meet the Enterpise Green Communihes and ASHRAE 700 standards. Heat island mitigation through landscaped parking lot islands zoas also identified as part of the sustainability approach. Commercial: The commercial srea is proposed along Larpenteur, connected to the neighborhood by sidezualk and trail. Mr, Stradtman and Mr. Robinson both acknowledged that commercial uiability zoould need to be assessed through market analysis and that the city and deaeloper shnred an interest in ensuring any commercial uses zoould be successfully occupied. Mr. Robinson noted that the deaelopment team and city staff had not yet fully synchronized their respectiae timelines and process framezoorks, but expressed commitment to working collaboratiaely to align the CAC's community engagement process ruith the deaeloper's project aduancement schedule. Regarding next steps, Mr. Robinson outlined the team's immed:iate piorities, including outreach to stakeholder agencies stLch as the two zoatershed districts, Ramsey County, Met Council, St. Paul RegionalWater Seraices, and neighboing cities; sanitary sewer and water capacity analyses; trffic analysis; geotechnical inaestigations; zuetland delineation; and initial enaironmental contaminant testing appropriate for an older golf course property. 2. Community Engagement Recap / Next Steps Administrator Linehan recapped the 6:30 PM CAC meehng thathad taken plnce prior to the joint session, descibing it as a produchue 4\-minute discussion focused on public participation strategies andhoto the community could proaide meaningful ingtt into the redeaelopment process. He noted thnt rohile specific engagement opportunihes had not been fully formalized, the CAC had identified initial approaches for broader public inaolaement. He confitmed that the presentahon materials and a aideo recording of the eaening's meeting uor.tld be posted to the city's project zoebpage at falconheightsmn.gou by Thursday morning, and that newsletter subscribers would receiae an email notification roith relea ant links. Administrntor Linehnn reiterated that the CAC's next regular meeting zoas scheduled for August 1,9, 2026, at 6:30 PM at Falcon Heights Gty HaIl. At thnt meeting, CAC members zuottld be asked to bring forzoard ideas for community engagement, including methods they had seen work ffictiuely in their respectiae communities. He also ffirmed thnt Rachel Deuelopment would continue to be part of the process, zoith future opportunities for the City Council, CAC, and public to ask questions and prouide feedback on the euolaingplans. D. ADJOURN - Cizalr Anderson expressed appreciation to Rachel Deuelopment for the presentation nnd noted that the CAC looked forward to further engagement. Mayor Gustafson echoed those remarks on behalf of the City Council, stating that the proposal appeared to explain why the Uniuersity of Minnesotahad selected Rachel Deaelopment, and thnt the City looked 't8 forward to tnorking with tht team in the coming months and years. Mayor Gustafson made a motion to adjourn the meeting. Meeting was adjournedby consent at 8:32 PM.

CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS City Council Workshop City Hall 2077 West Larpenteur Avenue MINUTES August 12,2026 6:00 P.M. A. CALL TO ORDER: 6:01P.M. Gustafson called to order B. ROLLCALL:GUSTAFSON-X- MAY-X- MIELKE X MOGEN ea WASSENBERG X STAFF PRESENT: LINEHAN X LANDBERG X POLICY ITEMS: 1,. 2027 Brdget Workshop #1 (6:00 P.M.) a. 2026 2"! Quarter Financial Report and Year-End Estimates Landberg presented the2026 Second Quarter Financial Report covering the period through June 30, 2026.9he reported that overall revenues and expenditures across all fund types are on track and broadly comparable to 2025 percentages-to-budget at the same point in the year. She noted that revenue figures do not uniformly reach 50% at mid-year due to the timing of property tax settlements and other cyclical receipts. General Fund: Revenues and expenditures are on track. General fund expendifures stood at approximately 40% of budget. Council Member Wassenberg asked whether the city produces monthly budget expectations broken down by timing. Landberg confirmed that no formal monthly revenue schedule is prepared, though she monitors individual line items such as charges for services on an ongoing basis. Special Revenue Funds: Performance is similar to2025 percentages. Two notable variances were identified: the Community/Economic Development and Community Inclusion funds each showed expenditures near 97% and96% of budget respectively, attributable solely to allocated audit fees rather than any programmatic spending. Council Member Wassenberg inquired about the Community Inclusion fund's activities Linehan explained that the fund has accumulated a healthy balance through annual general fund transfers of $10,000, butno specific inclusion initiatives were programmed for 2026. 21 Debt Service Funds: All principal and interest payments are current. The 2023 G.O. Improvement Bond, which was retired early in 2025 using surplus assessment revenues from earlier road project funds, carries only audit fees as remaining expenditures. Council Member May sought clarification on the debt service percentages presented. Landberg explained that the 455% expenditure figure shown for the 2023 bond n 2025 reflected the early payoff. Linehan outlined the city's bond history, noting that each bond is tied to a specific road projec! with the exception of the 2025Tax Abatement Bond, which funded the community park. Capital Proiect Funds: These funds are difficult to compare year-over-year given the variable timing of project expenditures. Revenue overages in several capital funds are primarily driven by investment interest income. Linehan noted that the Fairway Commons and UMN Les Bolstad funds were recenfly created and the 2021 Street Project fund is being wound down and will be closed. Enterprise Funds: Minor timing variances exist in both sanitary sewer and storm drainage funds, largely due to a two-month lag in utility revenue receipts and the Metropolitan Council's advance billing for wastewater services. Year-End Proiections: Landberg summarized that across all fund types, revenues are projected to finish over budget, and expenditures under budget. Linehan highlighted two primary revenue outperformers: investment interest on investrnents, projected at approximately $150,000-$180,000 against a $30,000 budget and building permit revenue, projected at approximately $170,000 against a $60,000 budge! largely driven by the Fairway Commons development. On the expenditure side, the NYFS social work program line will come in approximately $20,000 under budget as the program was not launched, and the finance consultant line will be approximately $50,000 under budge! as the city settled on outsoutced payroll at approximately $26,000 rather than drawing on the full $75,000 budgeted. Linehan also noted that the contracted planner line will exceed budget, partially offsetting those savings. He flagged the previously approved $325,000 budget amendment for the transfer to Parks Capital to purchase 1.407 Larpenteur Avenue (the "Get Pressed" property) as the primary anomaly in the 2026 general fund picture. b. 2027 General Fund Preview Linehan presented a preliminary overview of the proposed 2027 General Fund Budget and outlined the budget process timeline. Key upcoming milestones include: a capital and PMP discussion at the next workshop featuring City Engineer Hendrickson's five- year infrastructure plan; a levy discussion workshop on approximately September 9; preliminary levy approval at the September 23 Clty Council meeting; and the Truth in Taxation hearing on December 9. 22 a a a a Proposed Budget Changes - Revenues: The general fund is proposed to increase by 8.75%. The primary revenue drivers include a1,4% increase in ad valorem tax receipts ($311,000), an8% increase in fiscal disparities distributioru a modest increase in licenses and permits, and a doubling of the fines and forfeits budget from $15,000 to $30,000 in anticipation of continued growth in State Fair parking violation revenue. Linehan noted that the 2026budget included a $49,000 transfer from the ParkMobile Parking Management fund to the general fund, which is not currently reflected in the 2027 proposal. He indicated this figure could be revisited at the September workshop once State Fair parking revenues are better known, and that including it could reduce the levy by approximately 1.5 to 2 percentage points. Proposed Budget Changes - Expenditures: Total expenditures are proposed to increase by approximately 7.96%. The principal expenditure drivers are: Compensation: A total increase of approximately $L03,000, athibutable to grade and step increases, a proposed3% cost-of-living adjustment (consistent with the current metro-area range of 3-4%), additional employees enrolling in the city's health insurance plan, and a more accurate accounting of overtime. Linehan noted that the city has historically budgeted $0 for overtime, which has proved inaccurate as staff tenure increases and comp-time balances grow. Staff additions for 2027 rnclude expanding the administrative intern to a full-year position, adding a $5,000 finance intern line, and restoring a Public Works seasonal part-time position. Public Safety: An increase of $193,176, reflecting St. Anthony Village Police reaching their contracted full complement of 30 officers n2027. Linehan explained that once full staffing is achieved, annual increases are expected to moderate to approximatgly 5% or less, consistent with Lauderdale's historical experience under the same contract. Financial Software: An upgrade from the current desktop-based Tyler Encode system to a cloud-based version at an estimated cost of approximately $19,000, driven in part by the forthcoming end-of-support for the existing server infrastructure. Landberg noted that the cloud-based system would allow remote access for consultants, enable workflow-based budget processes, and facilitate a planned addition of a fixed asset module (estimated at $600/year) to eliminate manual depreciation journal entries. Conferences and Professional Development: A modest budget increase to better reflect actual recent expendifure trends. Levy and Tax Rate: The preliminary levy is proposed to increase from $2,882,408 to $3,234,420, a12.2'1.% increase of $352,012. Debt service levy remains stable at approximately $190,000 annually, with no major bonding anticipated in the next five years. The projected city tax rate would rise from approximately 37% n2026 to approximately 41,.91.% in2027. Council Member May asked for clarification on the tax rate figure 23 Landberg explained that the local tax rate is calculated by dividing the net local levy amount - after subtracting the fiscal disparities distribution - by the net local tax capacity provided by Ramsey County, over which the city has no control. Linehan provided context by noting that Falcon Heights had one of the lowest levy increases in Ramsey County in recent years (3.88% tn 2025), and that the current increase reflects genuine cost pressures that had been partially deferred. For comparison, Saint Anthony's tax rate is approximately 65% and Saint Paul's exceeds 50%. Council Discussion - Levy Reduction Strategies: Linehan presented several levers available to reduce the preliminary levy, including: budgeting a ParkMobile transfer as a recurring revenue item; increasing the interest on investrnents estimate from $50,000 toward the $100,000-$150,000 range that has been consistently achieved; adjusting the Parks Capital transfer; or making modest use of the city's fund balance. He noted the city's fund balance policy requires a minimum of 45% of operating revenues to be held in reserve and that the city currently holds a healthy triple-A-rated balance well above that floor. Council Member Wassenberg advocated for working to reduce the levy increase, suggesting the council consider what an appropriate reserve level is and use surplus beyond that threshold to offset taxes rather than allowing reserves to grow indefinitely. He also suggested consideration of "leveling" increases across years - e.g./ an 8% increase this year and a 6% increase next year - rather than a steep increase followed by a minimal one, to smooth the impact on taxpayers. Council Member May expressed general agreement noting a preference for calculated rather than speculative risk when budgeting aggressive revenue estimates. She raised concerns about the apparent decline in intergovernmental revenue, which Linehan clarified was primarily a timing artifact related to LGA advances and the non-recurrence of one-time grants rather than a structural loss. May also asked about the risk of a state LGA reduction given the current political environmen! Landberg and Linehan acknowledged the uncertainty but noted that2027 LGA is projected to increase slightly and that maintaining LGA levels remains a League of Minnesota Cities legislative priority. Mayor Gustafson emphasized the importance of fiscal transparency, stating that if the city has legitimate expenses, it should raise the revenue to meet them rather than obscuring costs. He recalled that prior to 2017, the city had been artificially suppressing taxes by drawing down reserves to a dangerous level, and that correcting this required significant levy increases that residents ultimately accepted because the rationale was clearly communicated. There was general consensus among the Council to direct staff to explore strategies to reduce the levy below L0% where feasible without operational impact. Linehan committed to returning at the September 9 workshop with multiple levy scenarios - showing trade-offs for each approach - and with updated ParkMobile revenue figures following the State Fair.

The Council consented to the addition. Council Member Mielke motioned to approve the agenda as amended, to add Policy Item H5; Approved 4-0 PRESENTATION 1. Metropolitan Council Member Peter Lindstrom, District L0 Lindstrom, who also serves as District 10 representative on the Metropolitan Council and works at the University of Minnesota with the Clean Energy Resource Teams, provided a broad update on Met Council activities. He was accompanied by Abi Phillips, the newly promoted Met Council sector representative working closely with city staff. Wastewater. Lindstrom noted that2026 marks the 100th anniversary of the Mississippi River being declared biologically dead, with a1926 survey finding only three fish between Saint Paul and Red Wing. He highlighted the Met Council's role in treating approximately 650 million gallons of wastewater daily across nine plants, with 600 miles of interceptor sewers. Falcon Heights contributes approximately 213 million gallons per year, for which the city is billed roughly $61,000 per month ($741,,000 annually) at the wholesale rate. He noted the Met Council's wastewater rates are approximately 35 percent below the national average. Significant ongoing challenges include aging infrastrucfure, reduced groundwater recharge, increased water demand from data centers, and persistent contaminants such as PFAS, nitrogery phosphorus, and chlorides.

Lindstrom highlighted upcoming H Line Bus Rapid Transit service along Como Avenue, with stops planned at Como and Snelling and Como and Hamline, with construction beginning n2028 and service commencingin2D29. He also noted that Route 51 along Larpenteur now runs every 30 minutes with new Saturday and Sunday service added. For the State Fair, Met Council will operate six express routes, and suburban transit providers will offer eight additional routes. Last year, approximately 390,000 rides were provided on Met Council express routes alone. Council Member May asked about coordination between BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) planning and existing bicycle infrastrucfure along Como Avenue. Lindstrom confirmed the H Line would not negatively impact existing bike infrastructure. Council Member Wassenberg asked about the H Line's full route Lindstrom confirmed itwould run from downtown Minneapolis to Sun Ray Shopping Center in Maplewood, intersecting with the existing A Line and the planned G Line on Rice Street. htlpLCouncil Member Wotea that a stop on Route 61 at Arona had previously been proposed for removal, and credited Lindstrom with advocating to retain it given its proximity to senior housing. Community Development and Grants. Lindstrom announced that the full Metropolitan Council had voted, approximately 90 minutes before the meeting, to approve two grants for Falcon Heights: a $100,000 small area planning grant for Les Bolstad master planning, and a $63L,000 grant for Fairway Commons for environmental cleanup and construction. He noted the city had also received a $40,000 planning grant to help with comprehensive plan consultant costs. Lindstrom encouraged the Council to look at community tree grants, recently opened to cities for ash tree removal and replacement on public boulevards and in parks. Phillips confirmed these grants opened on Tuesday Linehan noted that the city also has an active transportation grant application still under review at the Met Council, seeking approximately $50,000 for a citywide bike plan. Lindstrom encouraged Council members to consider applying to serve on Met Council advisory committees, including the Transportation Advisory Board, which makes recommendations on allocating approximately $225 million in federal transportation funds every other year. Council Member May asked whether pedestrian and bicycle projects are eligible for that regional solicitation funding. Lindstrom confirmed they are, and also noted that a portion of a regional sales tax dedicated to transit is available for active transportation through a parallel grant process. 28 G.

Improvement Bond Series 2021.A Debt Service Fund Gustafson motioned to approve the consent agenda; Approved 4-0 H POLICY ITEMS: 1. Approval of Ordinance 26-09 Amending Chapter 46 of City Code Concerning Noise Issues from Traffic and Vehicles Linehan summarized the background, explaining that a recent incident involving a car alarm sounding for multiple days in a residential neighborhood exposed a gap in city code. The existing 48-hour parking rule was the only applicable mechanism at the time. Staff reviewed practices in other cities and drafted language adding a vehicle alarm violation to Chapter 46. Following Council direction at the July workshop, the proposed time limit was set at two hours-reduced from the originally proposed four hours-after which the vehicle may be declared a public nuisance and the city may authorize law enforcement or a contractor to remove and impound it. Council Member Wassenberg characterized the ordinance as a straighfforward and sensible patch to city code. Council Member Mielke moved approval of Ordinance 2609 and Summary Ordinance 26-09 Amending Chapter 46 of the Falcon Heights City Code Conceming Noise Issues from Traffic and Vehicles; The motion carried 4-0. 29 2. Approval of Ordinanc e 26-10 Amending Chapter 22 of Cily Code Concerning Unnecessary Noise Linehan explained that the city has lacked a comprehensive noise ordinance, historically relying on MPCA (Minnesota Pollution Control Agency) guidance and code provisions scattered across several sections covering refuse haulers, barking dogs, and home occupations. The new ordinance formally establishes prohibited noise categories and hourly restrictions. For most activities, permitted hours are7:OO AM to 9:00 PM on weekdays and 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM on weekends and holidays. Refuse hauling hours mirror existing licensing language, extending to 10:00 PM on weekdays. Radios, music devices, and similar equipment are permitted until 10:00 PM. The proposed ordinance also contained a Section (c) on noise impact statements, which would allow the Council to require noise impact studies for certain zoning changes or permit applications. Linehan recommended striking this section, noting that the city currently lacks the zoning mechanism to implement or enforce it, and that Council Member Mogen had also expressed a preference to refer it to the Planning Commission for further development before inclusion. Linehan suggested the Council could strike Section (c), approve the ordinance as amended, and have the Planning Commission bring back a more fully developed provision at a later date. Council Member Wassenberg agreed, noting the section would be effectively inoperative until the Planning Commission completed the necessary supporting framework, and that it may need to read differently once that work is done. Council Member Mielke moved approval of Ordinance 2G10 andSummary Ordinance 26-10 Amending Chapter 22 of lhe Falcon Heights City Code Concerning Unnecessary Noise, as Amended to Strike Section (c); The motion carried 4-0. 3. Approval of Ordinance26-11, Amending the2026 Fee Schedule Ordinance to Modify Parking Fines and to Establish a Commercial Parking Lot License Fee Linehan summarized the three main components of the ordinance: (1) establishing a $35 commercial parking lot license fee; (2) formally codifying the administrative citation escalation schedule ($35.00 if paid within'J,4 days; $85.00 if paid within 15-59 days; turned over to collections after 60 days with a30% increase for collection costs); and (3) clarifying the city's two credit card processing systems-Payroc (3.50%, minimum $2.00, for permits within iWorQ) and AllPaid (2.95%, minimum $3.99, for all other transactions). Council Member May raised a drafting concem with the fee schedule language, noting the phrase "current amount" in the collections tier was unclear and should be replaced with "$85.00" for transparency. Council Member Wassenberg agreed. The Council also identified that the word "keys" on page 64 of the packet had been inadvertently struck through and should be restored, as staff had decided to defer a broader update to the rental fee section. 30 Council Member May moved to amend the fee schedule to replace "current amount" with "$85.00*" (retaining the T2 convenience fee asterisk) in the administrative citation collections row, and to restore the inadvertently struck word "keys" on page 64. The amendment carried 4-0. Mayor Gustafson moved approval of Ordinance 26- 11 and Summary Ordinance 26-1'1,, Amending the 2026Fee Schedule, as Amended; The motion carried 4-0. 4. Approval of Resolution26-TL Authorizing the Request for General Fund Budget Amendment - Administrative Expenditures (112) - 60520 Part-Time Employees Linehan explained that the city budgeted $5,000 for an administrative intern in 2026.Due to a vacancy in the Administrative and Communications Coordinator position, the intern's tenure was extended, resulting in approximately $11,000 in year-to-date expenditures, offset by savings from the vacancy. With a current and upcoming planned staff leave, the city needs continued coverage. Linehan requested authorization to increase the part-time line to $20,000, allowing the city to hire a fall semester intern (September-December). He noted that staffing agency alternatives cost $50-60 per hour with no ability to select personnel, whereas the intern program consistently attracts strong candidates. Council Member Wassenberg expressed support, noting the program is economical and provides valuable career development opportunities for students interested in municipal government. Council Member Wassenberg moved approval of Resolution 26-7L, Authorizing the General Fund Budget Amendment for Administrative Expenditures (112); The motion carried 4-0. 5. Hollywood Court Petition Linehan summarized a petition received the previous day from most residents of Hollywood Cour! requesting two things: (1) Council approval of a resident placard they had designed for display in vehicle dashboards, and (2) that the city communicate the placard's existence and purpose to Minnesota State Fair security personnel. Linehan explained that Hollywood Court residents and Amber Union residents both face access challenges during the State Fair because the Larpenteur entrance is now closed due to Fairway Commons constructiory leaving the Snelling and Hoyt entrance- staffed by rotating State Fair security officers - as their sole access point. The existing resident window stickers have proven difficult to present convincingly. Linehan proposed extending the placard approach to Amber Union residents as well, printing approximately 250 for distribution through the building's management, and presenting the information at the city's next scheduled meeting with State Fair police. Linehan also noted that there is value in the city formally endorsing the placard rather than having residents create unofficial signage. 31 Council members acknowledged the limited scope of the solution-the placard would assist residents in getting past security barricades but would not serve as a parking pass-and expressed sympathy for the affected residents. Council Member May noted it at least alleviates part of a significant inconvenience Council Member Mielke moved to Authorize the Creation and Distribution of Placards for Amber Union and Hollywood Court Residents to Display in Their Vehicles and to Direct Staff to Communicate the Details to State Fair Policing; The motion carried 4-0. I: INFORMATION / ANNOUNCEMENTS: Mielke recognized election volunteers on primary election day and encouraged residents to vote in person. Wassenberg reported on the Northeast Youth and Family Services annual board-staff picnic, noting that NYFS is expanding services to include psychological evaluations for adulg in addition to children. May reported that neighborhood block parties were well-attended. She noted that the Environment Commission met on Monday, where Chair Adam Keester prepared a comparison of the Bolstad development plan against the city's Climate Action Plan goals, identifying priorities and deficiencies. She also celebrated that a water line has been installed at the Community Garden, a welcome development given the hot, dry weather. Mayor Gustafson noted that he and Council Member Mogen attended five block parties. He reported that the Parks and Recreation Commission met and worked on the park rental agreemen! streamlining earlier draft language. The Commission will meet on Wednesday, September 2nd (moved from Labor Day) to continue work on a vision statement for parks within the Bolstad development. A soft launch of the new Community Park is planned for fall, with Fall Fest currently scheduled at the elementary school in October, though a possible merge with the park opening event is under consideration. Linehan provided the following staff updates: . State Fair parking permits have been mailed to all relevant zones, and digital pass requests and variance applications are being processed. . T2Systems adminishative citation infrastructure is being set up; scanners are delayed in customs in Quebec.. The State Fair resource guide has been mailed to residents. . Monument sign lighting repairs are underway at City Hall and the Snelling-Larpenteur location.. Boulevard trees were recently planted using a Releaf grant. . Community Park update: playground equipment delivery is expected nextweek; splash pad activation is pending vendor coordination; the contractor will retum to regrade the entire site and seed after August 15th (the watershed-required seeding date); bathrooms will open with the building, which is anticipated by late September to early October. 32 J: COMMUNITY FORUM: No members of the public came forward. The Community Forum was closed. Please limit comments to 3 minutes per person. Items brought before the Council will be referred for consideration. Council may ask questions for clarifcntion, but no council action or discussion will be held on these items. K: ADJOURNMENT: 8:39 P.M.

Pricing came in around $48,000 at the time, but it was not bid using prevailing wage requirements. The City had bid it as an alternate in the event we did not get the Outdoor Recreation DNR grant, so that we could have pricing and an option if we wanted to move forward with a quote. As we did get the grant, it was required that we rebid the work using the MN DNR format. WSB released an RFP on behalf of the City and accepted proposals for playground fencing from qualified providers through August 20,2026. Four vendors submitted quotes during this time for consideration. Of the four quotes received, Century Fence submitted the lowest base bid of $48,600. In addition, the safety fencing was part of the City's requested expenses to be covered as part of the MN DNR Outdoor Recreation grant and will be part of the reimbursable fees totaling $350,000. Budget Impact Funds are budgeted in the2026 capital budget for the playground upgrade. Attachment(s). Memo from WSB Project Manager Bob Slipka on Process . Four bids received . Resolunon26-72 Action(s) Requested Staff recommends that City Council accept the project bid from Century Fence not to exceed $48,600 for the fencing materials and installation around the new playground at Community Park, and authorize the City Administrator to execute the necessary purchase agreements.

Resolution Submitted By Erik HenrickserL City Engineer Item Approve Agreement for Curb Repair at1,446Iowa Avenue W Description Staff has idenffied a localized drainage issue along the curb line abutting1,446 Iowa Avenue W. A street tree has heaved a portion of the existing curb, creating an obstruction that prevents water from draining along the curb line and creates ahazard to the roadway, particularly in winter during fueezing conditions. The condition is particularly noticeable following the City's 2025 Pavement Management Project, which re-established the crown of the roadway. As part of the 2l2lPavement Management Project, curb was replaced upstream of the current drainage issue. Staff reviewed both existing survey taken before the project and conducted post-construction survey which verified that the 2025 project did not change the slope, grade, or flow lines in the area of the current issue. Staff believes the drainage condition is instead related to the existing tree-heaved curb coupled with the re-established crown of the roadway. Prior to the2025 project, drainage likely flowed around the irregular curb line and into the roadway before continuing downstream to the catch basin at the intersection of Iowa Avenue W and Pascal Street. With the roadway crown re-established during the2025 project, the heaved curb now creates a more significant impediment to drainage. The proposed repair consists of removing the heaved portion of curb and tying the new curb into the existing curb to establish positive drainage, which would be roughly 100lineal feet of curb rehabilitation. The work will also require limited pavement removal and restoration, as well as traffic control. The City requested quotes from qualified contractors to complete the repair. The following quotes were received: City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota 54 North Valley, Inc. submitted the lowest quote of $24,958.95. Staff recommend entering into an agreement with North Valley,Inc. to complete the work. Construction is anticipated to occur in late September. Budget Impact The proposed repair will be funded through Capital Improvement Fund 419, Sufficient funds are available from the 2025 Road Project budget to complete the work. The agreement with North Valley, Inc. will be for fi24,958.95, consistent with the contractor's submitted quote.

Description The City approved a contract with Visu-Sewer,Inc. on April 22,2026, for the 2026Sarutary Sewer Lining Project in the amount of $230,560.00. The project originally included approximately 5,400lineal feet of sanitary sewer lining along Fairview Ave, Roselawn Ave, Garden Ave, Larpenteur Ave, and Maple Knoll Dr. The City budgeted $400,000 for sanitary sewer lining lr.2026. Due to the favorable bid received from Visu-Sewer, staff worked with the contractor to determine whether additional sanitary sewer rehabilitation could be completed as part of the 2026 project. Through this process, the City and Visu- Sewer agreed to pricing that allows the remaining sanitary sewer lining needs in Falcon Heights to be completed as part of the current project. Change Order #1 is attached which shows quantities, unit pricing, and total cost. The additional work will increase the total project from approximately 5,400 lineal feet to approximately 10,400lineal feet of sanitary sewer lining. This will complete all currently identified sanitary sewer lining needs within the City, eliminating the need for the sanitary sewer lining project previously anticipated for 2027. Staff will continue to monitor the condition of the sanitary sewer system and recommend additional rehabilitation projects as needed. The negotiated pricing provides additional value to the City. The unit price for 8" CIPP lining remains unchanged from the original bid. The additional18" CIPP lining price was reduced from $209.15 per lineal foot to $130.00 per lineal foot, and t}:re21" CIPP lining was negotiated at $202.00 per lineal foot. The negotiated 21" was not originally bid, however the quoted price remains below the original18" CIPP unit price. Change Order #1 is in the amount of $213,982.30, increasing the total contract amount from $230,560.00 to $444,542.30. \Atrhile the revised contract amount exceeds the $400,000 budget bv $44,542.30, the additional work can be City of Falcon Heights, Minnesota 72 completed under the existing project without separately incurring many of the costs associated with a future project including mobilization, traffic control, and other appurtenant work. AdditionalTy, staff anticipates particular items in the original award will not be needed in this year's project (allowances, transition liners, and short liners) reducing the overall cost of the project. Completing the additional lining as part of the 2026 project is therefore expected to provide long-term cost savings to the City and completes the planned lining efforts in Falcon Heights for the foreseeable future. Construction is scheduled to begin in September following the State Fair, with completion remaining scheduled for October 16,2026. Budget Impact The original contract amount of $230,560.00 was substantially below the $400,000 budgeted for the 2026 sanltary sewer lining project. Change Order #1 will increase the contract amount to $444,542.30, which is$44,542.30 above the 2026 project budget. The additional work will complete the City's currently identified sanitary sewer lining needs and eliminate the need for a separate 202T linrngproject. Staff anticipates that completing the work under the current contract will result in long-term cost savings by avoiding a separate mobilization, traffic control, and other project-related costs. AdditionalTy, staff anticipates particular items in the original award will not be needed in this year's project (allowances, transition liners, and short liners) reducing the overall cost of the proiect.
