PRESENTATION: Mr. John Zanmiller introduced himself to the Council. He explained that he is a member of the West St. Paul City Council and also represents this area on the St. Paul Regional Water Utility Board. He was appointed two years ago, as one of two suburban representatives on the Board. In January, 2004, it will be Falcon Heights' turn to appoint a representative and he would like Falcon Heights to allow him to continue that representation, instead of taking its position in the Board rotation. Mr. Zanmiller proceeded to give a brief description of the St. Paul Regional Water Utility and answered questions from the City Council. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: The Council minutes dated October 22, 2003 were unanimously approved as presented. PUBLIC HEARINGS: None Scheduled CONSENT AGENDA: Lindstrom moved approval of the Consent Agenda, as outlined below. The motion was unanimously approved. 1.

Proclamation-Ramsey County Library Foundation Day 6. Consideration of 2004 SCORE Contract and Adoption of Resolution 03-22 POLICY AGENDA Stipulation Settlement for Insty-Prints and JEMJAHS -2- Administrator Worthington said that last month the developer of the SE Corner project negotiated a relocation settlement for $25,000 with Insty-Prints regarding the termination of their lease in the Northome Shopping Center. Sherman and Associates has settled Insty- Prints claim, and the Council may now consider the settlement for final approval. JEMJAHS will execute this agreement after the city finalizes it. Talbot moved approval of the stipulation settlement for Insty-Prints and JEMJAHS for payment of $25,000 to Insty-Prints. The motion was unanimously approved. Change in Rec~g Method from Five-Sort to a Two-Sort Administrator Worthington said that earlier this year, the Solid Waste Commission voted unanimously to allow E-Z Recycling to utilize atwo-sort method, rather than the five-sort method required in the current contract. Staff toured the E-Z Recycling plant last week, and is confident that they are capable of making the switch, with little or no increase in the amount of residual material, and thus no negative environmental impact from switching to 2-sort. Under the 2-sort system, corrugated cardboard is still collected separately from the two streams ofNewspaper-Magazines-Mixed Mail-Cereal Boxes and Cans-Glass-Plastic. The city will make sure that people know they must still flatten and bundle corrugated cardboard and put it out separately. (So it is, technically, a third stream, for those who recycle corrugated cardboard.) The Solid Waste Commission would now like to roll out this new method, update the contract, and do resident education about the change in the upcoming newsletter and flyer. Chris Reinhardt at E-Z has offered to distribute tags to residents at the November 21 or December 5 recycling pick-up to instruct them on the new sorting method. Council member Lamb said this will be a simple method for the residents. Most people sort paper, glass and metal. E-Z said their recovery rate is between 95%-98%. E-Z re-sorts everything and the end result at their plant yields 2%-5% of residual non-recyclables. The goal on the East Coast is 21 %. Council member Lindstrom commented that E-Z does not own its own landfill so it is to their benefit to maximize recycling. FALCON HEIGHTS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES _3_ November 12, 2003 Chance in Recyclin~ Method from Five-Sort to a Two-Sort (continued) Council member Lamb said that a lot of it has to do with the residents. If residents don't want to sort into five categories, they can do just as good of a job on a 2-sort. The first sort is paper of all types. The second sort is cans, glass and plastic. The third sort, if needed, is the bundling, separately, of corrugated cardboard. Council member Talbot asked if the new method will cost more. Council member Lamb said no, it is the type of sort that E-Z uses anyway. The major effect will be on what residents have to do. It will be a simpler method. In response to a question from Council member Kuettel regarding bins, Administrator Worthington said that residents can come down to City Hall and get a second bin for free. Or, residents can still use paper bags. Council member Kuettel said that E-Z will continue to pick up clean recycled clothing, batteries and used oil. She asked that she be able to take a peek at the newsletter before it goes it in December. Council member Lindstrom asked what percent of the community recycles and Administrator Worthington said she will get that information for him. Lamb moved that staff and the Solid Waste Commission be authorized to update the recycling contract to require a 2-sort method, and commence with resident education about this change in the upcoming newsletter and city flyer. The motion was unanimously approved. REPORTS FROM COUNCIL MEMBERS: Council members Talbot and Lindstrom thanked the residents who voted for them on November 4. Council member Talbot said that he looks forward to serving the community and working with the other good people on the Council for another four years. INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS: Council member Lamb asked Administrator Worthington for an update on the Farmer's Market. What kind of feedback came to the City and City Hall over the last few months? Administrator Worthington said the Farmer's Market began in late May and continued through October. The City only received one complaint and that was about aback-up beeper that had nothing to do with the Farmer's Market. Early one morning there was a truck and trailer using the Twin Cities Co-op parking lot for offloading purposes. There were no parking problems on Farmer's Market days. If necessary, people utilized City Hall parking lots. People commented on how much they enjoyed the Farmer's Market and want it to come back next year. Many of the vendors thought this was one of the best locations in the Twin Cities. There was a variety of vendors to choose from: Flower, vegetable, meat and cheese and bakery. 3 FALCON HEIGHTS CITY COUNCIL MINUTES -4- November 12, 2003 INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS (continued) Administrator Worthington said that traffic was manageable. Only occasionally did people find it difficult to make a left turn at Larpenteur. Overall, she would give it high marks. It was quite popular. Council member Kuettel said that she thought it was really successful. Council member Lindstrom said that he talked to a resident who was initially very skeptical. Now that resident feels positive about it. Parking is not a problem and it is a great addition to the City. Council member Kuettel mentioned that from November to April, the City sponsors the Playroom at the United Church of Christ Nursery, Wednesdays and Friday mornings, from 9:30 AM-12 noon. The fees are $2/visit for achild/adult and the family rate is $3/visit. There are also multi-visit punch card rates. There will be an open house at the Playroom on Saturday, November 22, from 10 AM-1 PM. The City also sponsors Saturday morning open gyms at the Falcon Heights Elementary School, at no cost to the participants. Basketballs and other equipment are provided, or participants can bring their own. Clean, dry footwear is recommended for admittance to the gyms. Council member Kuettel reminded the cable audience that the City needs people for its commissions: Planning, Parks, Solid Waste, Neighborhood and Human Rights. Check the City's web site for more information. Council member Talbot said that because of the incredible volunteerism in Falcon Heights, it is one of the best-run cities in the state. Administrator Worthington said that street sweeping began this week, but because of the snow showers on Wednesday, the sweepers had to stop around noon that day. She asked residents to not rake their leaves into the street because they will go into the storm sewers and cause problems downstream. The street sweeping should be done by Friday, weather permitting. If residents have questions, feel free to call City Hall at 651-644-5050. The regular City Council meeting was adjourned at 7:45 PM. Respectfully submitted, Mary Shea Kodluboy Deputy Clerk r~ 4 PUBLIC HEARING F1 11/26/03 ITEM: Consider the Vacation of Street Easements and an Alley SUBMITTED BY: Heather Worthington, City Administrator REVIEWED BY: Matthew Foli, City Attorney EXPLANATION: Summary: The City proceeded with a condemnation of the frontage road adjacent to the new Dino's parcel in late August. The city has agreed to vacate the easements on those parcels, and convey the land to the two adjacent landowners, Dino Adamidis and Steve Wellington, for use as parking. The City will retain an access easement across the alley right-of--way, and across the parking lot for purposes of access for residents adjacent to the new Dino's parcel. The access on the site will not change from its current configuration, and will still allow residents and patrons of the shopping center access to their homes via the alley, and the parking lot for the Falcon Crossing Center via the alley and parking lot, as well as access for public safety vehicles.

Reasons for replacing this structure: • Parts made from treated lumber, which contains toxic chemicals • Tires hold water, which can become a breeding ground for mosquitoes • Slide is damaged • Replacing splintered lumber creates a liability • Surface and edging is not ADA compliant • This small play structure is geared towards children 2-5. Community Park currently lacks play equipment that encourages creative play. Staff provided the Park Commission diagrams of different types of play structures that stimulate creative play. After reviewing these structures the Park Commission preferred the "Schooner" (see attached illustration) model manufactured by Play World Systems and distributed by Midwest Playscapes of Chaska, MN. The total cost to install this structure, including ADA compliant curbing and surface is $21,500. The Lauderdale/Falcon Heights Lions Club has donated $3,000 toward the purchase of this playground. There was $6,000 budgeted for rubber ADA surfacing at the Grove Park in 2003. By using ADA compliant engineered wood fiber the City saved $5,000. Staff recommends using $3,500 of this money to help pay for the surface, curbing and installation of the new play structure at Community Park. On November 10, 2003 the Park Commission voted unanimously to recommend to the City Council the purchase and installation of the "Schooner" play structure, at a total cost of $21,500. ATTACHMENTS: • Illustration of new play structure • Pictures of old structure • Price quote from Midwest Playscapes, 500 N. Pine Street, Chaska, MN 55318 • Specification for ADA compliant engineered wood fiber /S • n LJ POLICY x2 11/26/03 Purchase of New Playground Equipment for Community Park (continued) ACTION REQUESTED: • Authorize the purchase and installation of a new play structure for Community Park, at a total cost of $21,500. l6 ~_ This play system meets or exceeds the requirements for access under the Accessibility Guidelines for Play Areas developed by the Federal Access Board when installed over accessible surfacing.

JANICE RETTMAN Count_c Commissioner District 3 ®~ ,(d ~ 200 J November 17, 2003 Dear Mayor and City Council Members, For several months the Ramsey County Housing and Redevelopment Authority has been discussing a possible HRA levy with the 18 suburban municipalities within the County. The latest proposal, distributed to you on October 6`'', included a levy of $805,800 to be redistributed based on population with each municipality determining how their funds are to be used in accordance with state law. This could include support for projects within the community, pooling resources with other communities for joint projects or purchasing services from the Housing Resource Center. • On Tuesday, December 2 beginning at 9:00 A.M. the Ramsey County HRA will again discuss the levy and.provide an opportunity for input from each of the municipalities. At this time the Board will likely make a decision on whether or not to adopt the levy. While this is not a public hearing, community representatives are encouraged to attend and provide comment on the levy. Some communities have already sent letters which will be included as part of the information packet for each commissioner. County staff will also be present to identify how the levy might impact typical properties in a community. If you wish to comment on the levy but cannot attend you may write a letter which will be forwarded to each of the Corrunissioners. Letters should be addressed to: Commissioner Janice Rettman, Chair Ramsey County HRA 220 City Ha1UCourt House 15 West Kellogg Boulevard Saint Paul, MN 55102 On behalf of the other Commissioners I want to thank you for your continued .participation in this discussion Respectful) , .% .~ 'Janice Rettman, Chair Ramsey County HRA CC: Ramsey County HRA Commissioners CITY H.ALLICOURT HOUSE SUITE 220 SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55102 Minnesota's First Home Rule County printed on recycled paper ,~Q:c~ b i~ty~~"~~p 'JY 651,266-8360 MINNE SOTA ~ REVENUE ~®~ ~ ~.

Platzek Falcon Heights Prosecuting Attorneys SUBJECT: October 8, 2003, Falcon Heights City Council Meeting Presentation Update • DATE: November 18,.2003 Thank you for the opportunity to speak to the Falcon Heights City Council on October 8, 2003, regarding Minnesota's DWI laws. This memorandum is a follow-up to that presentation. Between January 1, 2003, and October 31, 2003 our office has prosecuted over 500 misdemeanor crimes, as well as hundreds of petty misdemeanor offenses, for the City of Falcon Heights. During that time, we also prosecuted 42 gross misdemeanor cases, which are initiated when a formal complaint is issued by our office. 180 cases were scheduled for a pretrial conference or omnibus hearing, and 49 cases were scheduled for a jury trial. Additionally, 46 misdemeanor and petty misdemeanor cases were scheduled for a court trial. As stated during the presentation, almost 1/3 of the gross misdemeanor cases prosecuted by our office are Second- or Third-Degree DWIs. The remaining gross misdemeanor cases comprise charges such as Driving After Cancellation as Inimical to Public Safety, Giving a False Name to Police, Furnishing Alcohol to a Minor, Obstructing Legal Process with Force, and Interference with a 911 Emergency Call. A majority of misdemeanor cases in Falcon Heights are license and insurance offenses, such as Driving After License Revocation or Suspension, and Operating an Uninsured Motor Vehicle. Other common misdemeanor offenses include Domestic Assault, Fourth-Degree DWI, Failure to • Transfer Motor Vehicle Title, and both Falcon Heights and University of Minnesota ordinance violations. Petty misdemeanors prosecuted by our office are violations such as Speeding, Failure • to Obey a Traffic Control Device, Parking violations, and Possession of a Small Amount of Marijuana. Included with this memo are three attachments. Attachment 1 is the 2003 DWI Charging and Sentencing Table. Attachment 2 is the 2003 Domestic Violence-Related Offenses Enhancement Chart. Attachment 3 is flowchart illustrating the how criminal cases move through the Minnesota court system. Again, it was a pleasure to speak with you and the City Council.
