The property owner, Roger Pittelkow, was not in attendance but had earlier in the day submitted his written objection to the assessment and his intent to appeal to district court. Hoyt explained that in 1991 the tree was determined to be on private property and upon the location of the property line on October 16, 1992 staff re- determined that the tree had been on private property because the area of disturbance to remove the trunk and roots (about 6 feet in diameter) was almost entirely on private property. The actual tree trunk (2 3/8 ft. in diameter) would hav been within the disturbed area on private property. Over the years growth roots had encroached into public property.

There being no one in attendance wishing to be heard Baldwin closed the hearing at 7:16 p.m. Gehrz moved adoption of Resolution R -92 -46 which carried unanimously.

Council concurred with the concept after which Gibson Talbot moved approval of Resolution R- 92 -47.

As detailed in the project schedule, the next step in the process is to prepare plans and specifications. This will allow us to hold the Public Hearing after the detailed plans are substantially complete so specific answers can be provided for many of the issues raised during the Informational Hearings. Attached for the City Council's consideration is a draft resolution which accepts the feasibility study and orders the preparation of plans and specifications. As requested by the City Council, we have looked at a 60/40 split of assessments between the City and benefitted properties, as well as comparing the typical assessment amount to the selling price and assessed value of homes in the area. As detailed in the feasibility study, the typical assessment in the Grove Area is $2,810 while the typical assessment in the Falcon Woods Area is $3,750. A reduction in the assessment split between the City and benefitted properties to 60/40 would make these typical assessments $2,250 and $3,000 respectively. We have checked with a local realtor and found that over the past 12 months there have been four home sales in the Grove Area, but only one in the Falcon Woods Area. The average selling price in the Grove Area was $188,750 and the one home sale in the Falcon Woods Area was $121,500. A review of the tax records revealed the average assessed value in the Grove Area is $168,300 and the average in the Falcon Woods Area is $109,700. The following table compares the two assessment scenarios as a percentage of selling price and assessed value for the Grove and Falcon Woods Area. 1959 SLOAN PLACE, SUITE 200, ST.

Petersen, 1730 W. Larpenteur Ave. REVIEWED BY: Susan Hoyt, City Administrator Shirley Chenoweth, City Clerk EXPLANATION /SUMMARY: Mr. Petersen has expressed some concerns regarding the use of Falcon Heights church as a polling place and has suggested the use of Falcon Heights school for that purpose. With the proposed remodeling of the school scheduled for 1993, it does not seem practical to expect use of the school for the 1993 city election. Staff would like direction as to whether or not to pursue possible use of the school for the 1994 elections. ATTACHMENTS: Mr. Petersen's letter dated September 28, 1992 ACTION, REQUESTED: Direct staff to contact school officials to determine if they would consider the city's use of the facility for a polling place for the 1994 elections.

Larpenteur Falcon Heights, Mn 55113 Dear Mayor Baldwin: I request that after the November 3, 1992 election the City of Falcon Heights move its voting location from the Falcon Heights United Church of Christ at 1795 Holton back to the Falcon Heights public school at 1392 Garden Avenue. My reasons for this are: 1) This is a needless entanglement of state and church. When the public school was closed, the Church of Christ generously offered their facility free of charge and they should be thanked for that. However, now that we taxpayers reinvested in the school and it is open and functioning again, it should be used to its fullest potental. 2) The Falcon Heights public school is more in line with the Secretary of State's guidelines: A. Handicap Accessibility: Both are handicap accessible, but Falcon Heights School has more doors without thresholds. The Church of Christ's curb indentation at the street is frequently and inadvertently blocked. B. Parking: The Church of Christ's parking lot is across Garden Ave. so in reality most voters park on the street. The Falcon Heights School has a parking lot around the building, making accessiblity for the elderly and handicapped safer and easier. Mayor Baldwin 1992 S e p tember 28, Page 2 C. Location: Both meet location guildlines. Another fundamental and vital reason for using a public school for voting is that it is a good role model for children. What better way for students to learn about our democratic system than to witness their parents, friends and neighbors in the act of voting. The number of eligible voters participating in elections is pathetic. We have to train the next generation from early childhood. That means voting in public schools should always be a priority. I would like to be notified when this will be on the city council's agenda so I can participate in the discussion. Sincerely Steven D. Petersen telephone: Mayor Baldwin September 28, 1992 Page 2 C.

REVIEWED BY: Susan Hoyt, City Administrator EXPLANATION /SUMMARY: Description The senior program provides community -based services to residents in the school district, extensive educational programming as well as social and recreational activities (see Attachment A). The organization is approaching cities in the Roseville School District for $35,000 of the program costs for services like Meals -on- Wheels and the blockworker program. Staff calculated this to be 12% of the total senior program funding base of $302,175. Criteria 1. The project is intergovernmental -with federal, school district and county funding. 2. The organization is requesting $3,255 from Falcon Heights based upon $3.50 x 930, the number of people over 60 years of age in the city. The organization estimates that 260 people are served by the organization. If a donation is based upon the actual service provided it would be 260 persons x $3.50 $910. The letter states that the full cost of the service to Falcon Heights would be at least twice $3,255 or $6,560. However, it appears that the organization is looking for 12 not 100 of its funding base from outside its regular resources.. 12% of the full cost of $6,560 would be $787. 3. This is an on -going program. 4. The city does not provide these services. 5. It meets the general health, safety and welfare requirements of the state statute. Other comments: 1. This is not a budgeted item. 2. The Falconeers provide recreation opportunities, not services. Those consulted are not users of the Roseville program. 3. The city donated $645 to the Lutheran Social Services Share -a -Home program. Saitatt. rg U;s�-- FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR SENIOR PROPOSAL What this means for 1993 budget. 1. This is an unbudgeted item for 1993. 2. The city proposes to raise city property taxes by 3.2%, or $12,104 total dollars in 1993. For comparison, the $3,255 represents 27 of this amount. 3. The request of $3,255 represents 5% of the city's unallocated contingency for 1993, which is designed to cover unanticpated costs throughout the year. CITY OF FALCON HEIGHTS Guidelines for Contributions The following guidelines were adopted by the city council on October 14, 1992 to evaluate eligible requests for funding. Guidelines: 1. Must be an intergovernmental service or project. 2. Contribution to be proportional to population. 3. Must be ongoing or be part of an ongoing effort with established goals and measurable results. 4. Must be something the city cannot accomplish by itself. 5. Must meet the legal requirements of promoting and ensuring the health, safety and welfare of Falcon Heights citizens. Staff will ask: 1. Does the project meet the criteria? 2. Is the city being asked for an ongoing donation? 3. Can the city offer some staff time and /or materials in lieu of a direct financial contribution? Procedures: 1. All persons requesting funds will be told about the criteria. They will also be told that the item is not in the city's budget and that any funds must come from elsewhere in the budget. 2. All requests will be on the council agenda. 3. Staff will inform those who do not meet the guidelines. These will appear on the agenda as administrative denials unless the party requesting the funding asks to be on the regular policy agenda. 4. All requests that meet the guidelines will be placed on the council agenda for consideration with as much information as possible including how many unbudgeted dollars for contributions allocated to date. 111 Roseville Area Senior Program 1910 West County Road B Roseville, MN 55113 Telephone: (612) 633 3997 Serving Arden Hills, Falcon Heights, Lauderdale, Little Canada, Maplewood, Roseville and Shoreview September 17, 1992 Ms. Susan Hoyt City Manager 2077 West Tarpenteur Falcon Heights, MN 55113 Dear Susan, As Executive Director of the North Suburban Senior Council, Inc., co- sponsor of the Roseville Area Senior Program, I am pleased to submit this proposal and information packet for your review and submission to the Falcon Heights City Council. As a designated community focal point, as assigned by the Metropolitan Council Area Agency on Aging, the Roseville Area Senior Program pro- vides a comprehensive range of services and programs for senior citi- l!) zens in this community. The enclosed packet includes detailed informa- tion about each program area, but I do want to point out that the Senior Program provides community -based services to residents in the school district, extensive educational programming as well as social and recreational activities. The Roseville Area Senior Program's mission is to provide quality services and programs to senior citizens. However, as with many organizations, we are faced with increased demand for services and programs while at the same time dealing with reductions from funding sources to meet the needs. As the population continues to "age in place" the demand for services and programs, especially those services which enable more frail seniors to live independently in their homes, will become greater. According to the 1990 census data, there are approximately 930 senior citizens 60 years of age and older living in Falcon Heights. Approx- imately 260 seniors from Falcon Heights either participate in the programs or utilize the services offered through the Roseville Area Senior Program. It is with a spirit of cooperation and collaboration that the North Suburban Senior Countil Board of Directors submits this proposal re- questing the City of Falcon Heights to consider providing financial support for the Roseville Area Senior Program. We anticipate our total funding needs to be in the range of $35,000 for this fiscal year. Specifically we are requesting $3.50 per individual over the age of North Suburban Senior Council, Inc. and Roseville Area Schools, Community Education page two 60 in the City of Falcon Heights, i.e. $3.50 x 930 $3,255. This dollar amount represents less than half the actual cost to serve the seniors in your community. The requested funds would be utilized to subsidize the transportation and the Meals -on- Wheels programs; for the Blockworker Project, which is an outreach program to identify isolated older adults in neighbor- hoods; and to meet program budget needs. The accompanying packet provides information about the budgeting situ- ation of the Roseville Area Senior Program. The Senior Program is co-sponsored by the School District 623 and the non profit organization the North Suburban Senior Council. The NSSC budget is completely sep- arate from the District and they are never combined except to show total resources for the Roseville Area Senior Program. Currently, there are several resources that comprise the total funding base of the Senior Program: NSSC 148,525 49% District 623 100,150 33% Ramsey Cty. 27,000 9% Federal 26,500 9% 302,175 Thank you for your serious consideration of our proposal. Should you have any further questions, please call me at 633 -3997. Sincerely, ((Q 7 443 e LeBarron Executive Director North Suburban Senior Council, Inc. cc: Al Nelson, President North Suburban Senior Council ROSEVILLE AREA SENIOR PROGRAM Historical Background The North Suburban Senior Council, Inc., (NSSC) was incorporated in August 1975 as a tax exempt, non profit organization as recognized by the 501(c)(3) code of the Internal Revenue Service. The NSSC was begun by the grassroots efforts of local older residents who shared concern about the lack of services and programs for older persons in the north suburban area of Ramsey County. Through the formation of a partnership with the Roseville Area School District (ISD 623), the NSSC began to secure financial and voluntary resources to implement a home delivered meals service and towards development of other services for older residents primarily living within the school district boundaries. The ultimate goal was to establish an umbrella agency for all senior citizen programs or services and to develop a community senior center. The NSSC began to mobilize community leaders and soon developed a network of churches, civic organizations, local clubs, and agencies to provide input, volunteer assistance and financial ssupport. With the assistance of the Roseville Area School Disstrict, the NSSC lobbied for funding from Ramsey County to implement services. Ramsey County funds were secured in 1975 and the Roseville Area Schools soon hired a Senior Citizens Coordinator /Executive Director to work with the NSSC. Today, the Roseville Area Senior Program, co- sponsored by the NSSC and ISD 623, is one of the largest community senior centers in the metropolitan area and provides a comprehensive range of services and program activities for adults aged 55 years and older CURRENT SITUATION The Roseville Area Senior Program has been designated the Focal Point of Senior Services for this community by the Metropolitan Council. Focal Points must provide a minimum range of services and are identified as lead agencies in the role of coordinating senior services. SENIOR PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION NSSC provides financial and volunteer support, community leadership and direction in the planning and implementation of programs and services. The NSSC Board of Directors is comprised of six elected officers and six elected Board members plus chairs of the standing committees. The Board of Directors is elected annually by the "Full Council" a 60- member group made up of representatives from churches, civic organizations, senior clubs, municipalities, and agencies with services for seniors. The Full Council meets a minimum of six times a year as a means of communicating concerns and educating leaders about senior services and resources. A tremendous support to the program comes from active volunteers who provide a variety of assistance. 965 volunteers contribute over 20,000 hours annually. Currently about 5,000 individuals participate in either the programs or services offered through the Senior Program. Over 12,000 adults, 55 years and over, reside in the school district community, representing over 25% of the total community. EDUCATIONAL. SOCIAL AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES The Senior Citizens Program operates a drop -in center which is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. 4:00 p.m. This lounge area features refreshments, comfortable seating, two pool tables, television, current magazines, daily newspapers, and various puzzles and card games. A library section contains a collection of over 300 books as well as a traveling collection of 50 books from the Ramsey County Library. An average of about 200 adults, 55 years and over, visit the center daily. Many of the center's programs provide a combination of educational /social- recreational components. Programs are planned in conjunction with Community Education's Adult Enrichment and Roseville Parks and Recreation Department. The following educational programs are offered during an average month: Continental Breakfast Programs (twice a month agency services, informational programs, travelogues), Men's Discussion Group (weekly), Book Club, Religious Study (twice a month), Newcomer's Orientation, Driver's Refresher Courses, Har Mar Chalk Talks, Women's Breakfast Group, Men's Breakfast Group, Travel Club, and "Great Decisions" (foreign affairs lectures by local professors this has been an intergenerational experience including social studies students from the high school), Market Place Morning Talks, Play Reading Group, Senior Friends (an intergenerational program), blood pressure testing, health screening, flu immunization clinics. Social- recreational programs include: 50 member chorus "North Suburban Senior Chorus monthly dances, weekly square dances and lessons, current movies, 1/2 day trips, "New Attitudes" (singles group), 500 cards, bridge, chess club, miniatures club, table games, etc. Special events drawing large crowds are held throughout the year (i.e. ice cream social, holiday parties). Horseshoe courts are available near the back of the building. Many older adults utilize swimming and exercise programs offered through the adult enrichment and aquatics programs. A large boutique made up of over 100 consignors is open featuring hand crafted items. INFORMATION /OUTREACH SERVICES Information /Referral: Approximately 1,000 telephone requests for information are handled every month. The Senior Program is one of four sites in Ramsey County to have a Computerized Senior Resource File. This information system is part of the "First Call for Help" network which enables us to answer and direct callers to appropriate senior services and information. Data is updated by "First Call for Help" and includes information on senior services and resources throughout Ramsey, Dakota and Washington counties. This project is funded through the Older Americans Act Title III grant through the Minnesota Board on Aging and the Metropolitan Council. A resource library is located in the office offering a large selection of information on housing, health education, community services, medical insurance coverage, consumer protection, employment opportunities and financial planning. Golden Retriever Newsletter: The Golden Retriever, a newsletter 20 pages in length, is read by approximately 3,000 people each month. The Golden Retriever provides current information on center activities and services, community resources, health education, current legislation, and issues affecting older adults as well as a broad range of community activities offered through local municipalities, churches and senior clubs. The cost of an annual subscription is $5.00; however, free subscriptions are available to those who cannot afford to pay. Blockworker Outreach Project: The Blockworker Project, based on the "neighbor- helping- neighbor" concept, utilizes volunteers to visit older residents on their block at least once a month and provide free written information on community resources, activities and services. Approximately 530 older adults in Falcon Heights, Roseville, Lauderdale and Little Canada are visited each month with the help of 50 volunteers. The Community Services Coordinator coordinates the project by recruiting and training volunteers, canvassing and surveying new blocks, developing a monthly bulletin that is distributed to all residents and plans monthly meetings which provide ongoing support and training for volunteers. Fairview Friends: Fairview Friends are trained peer counselors available to visit older adults in their home on a one -to -one basis addressing challenges and losses which accompany aging. The Fairview Friends also host the information desk in the Senior Center, greeting participants and introducing newcomers to center activities and other seniors. Support Groups: A seven -week Grief and Loss Group is offered twice a year for those who have experienced a recent death of a significant person. A Caregiver Support Group meets every other week. This group offers emotional support and information about resources and services which can assist the caregiver. TRANSPORTATION SERVICES Transportation services are available to those 60 years and over who have no means of transportation. A number of riders have physical limitations, but those who don't drive and /or have no access to public transportation are eligible for service. The Roseville Area Senior Program is a member of the Ramsey County Coordinated Transportation Project which is funded through the Metropolitan Council and administered through the American Red Cross. The transportation services are coordinated by the Community Services Coordinator which includes recruiting, training and evaluating volunteer drivers, coordinating maintenance of van with driver, and coordinating with Red Cross. The transportation service consists of two components: Volunteer Transportation: Sixteen volunteers who utilize their own vehicles are available to provide transportation primarily for medical appointments throughout most of the metropolitan area. Volunteers are provided mileage reimbursement and older adults utilizing this service are requested to make a donation to the program according to their ability to pay. Van "Senior Shuttle Transportation: The lift- equipped, 10 -16 passenger van is operated Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. to provide grocery shopping, rides to and from the Senior Center, local therapy rides (i.e. swimming at Presbyterian Homes) and other requests as schedule permits. This service is available to all residents in the school district and the entire city of Roseville. A suggested donation of 75 cents per one -way trip is requested. No service is denied because of inability to pay. The van is operated by a paid driver who is employed by Good Neighbor Foundation. Good Neighbor funds van operations. A special certificate through the Minnesota Department of Transportation is held for the van which requires specific standards and rules of compliance. The program was awarded a new 10 -16 passenger, lift- equipped bus through the Urban Mass Transportaton Administration Section 16(b)(2) Grant Program in June 1991. The North Suburban Kiwanis also provided the additional matching funds for the new "Senior Shuttle Last year 7,000 one -way trips, totaling over 16,000 miles driven, were provided to about 210 older adults. SENIOR DINING Senior Dining is a nutrition program available to all persons age 60 or older and their spouses regardless of residence. Ramsey Action Program (RAP) sponsors Senior Dining in cooperation with Roseville Area Schools' Food Service Department. Senior Dining is funded with state and federal funds and client contributions. Approximately 33,000 meals were served in 1991 to about 1,500 registered diners. The average daily attendance is 135. On special occasions a maximum of 225 meals are served. An average of 45 volunteers assist the site manager each month with registering new diners, reservations, check -ins, setting and cleaning tables, etc. The meal cost is $4.05 Diners are asked to contribute according to ability to pay. Suggested donation is $1.75. A sliding scale according to income is available. ID MEALS ON WHEELS The meals on wheels service is available to all school district residents 60 years and over who are unable to prepare their own meals. Those under 60 who are certified disabled are also eligible for service. Referrals are received from hospitals, health professionals, nursing homes, family members and, occasionally, older adults themselves.

RAMSEY COUNTY SOLID WASTE DIVISION PRESENTATION: Cathi Lyman Onkka, Dan Donkers and Adelle Edwards were present to discuss commercial recycling. The county counts on three areas of revenue: taxation of property, SCORE funds and a Metro Council grant. They are funded through 1993. They would like to target small businesses with technical information. Ramsey County is the most densely populated county and 50% 60% of all refuse generated is from businesses. The county has mailed the Resourceful Waste Management guide to all businesses (list purchased from USWest), they have posters to be used at worksites, have placed ads (since January) in the business sections of newspapers and there is a video available through the office of Waste Management. Other items in progress are the development of a case study of Ramsey County businesses, working with advisory committees, building associations and building owners throughout the county. John Hustad asked if businesses are expected to implement recycling programs for the good of society or for economical reasons. Lyman Onkka explained that recycling costs money but the county's approach, in working with a business, is the reduction of refuse in the first place. The commission would like the county to approach Falcon Heights businesses directly. Lyman -Onkka has our survey. Shirley Chenoweth will provide the county with zoning ordinances and will receive timely reports from the county and relay them to the commission. Following a discussion regarding the advantages /disadvantages of integrated hauling, the following resolution was drafted recommending remaining with sole source recycling: A RESOLUTION REQUESTING PROPOSALS BE REQUESTED FOR SOLE SOURCE RECYCLING WHEREAS, the current recycling contract is due to expire in March of 1993; and WHEREAS, the Solid Waste Commission has met with all interested haulers to discuss their interest and capabilities in meeting the recycling needs of Falcon Heights; and WHEREAS, the Solid Waste Commission has held several meetings to review and evaluate recycling options; and WHEREAS, the Solid Waste Commission concludes that the current recycling program best meets the recycling needs of Falcon Heights; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that Falcon Heights Solid Waste Commission recommends that the city solicit proposals for sole source recycling. The commission is developing a request for proposal (RFP) for the Falcon Heights city council's consideration. Other items of discussion were: 1. The MPCA has granted Ramsey County a waiver from the ban on residential tree and shrub waste until August 1, 1993. Commercial recycling report from Waste Management questioned the negative tonnage on the report. 3. June residential recycling report can weights be given in pounds rather than tons? 4. Reviewed membership roster McCleery moved, seconded by Hustad, that the meeting be adjourned at 9:00 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Laura Kuettel Michael Haglund MINUTES PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION MEETING November 9, 1992, 7:00 p.m. Members present: Carol Huso, Lloyd Jacobson, Morris Nicholson, Steve Schugel, Jyneen Thatcher, Carol Weisberg, Carol Kreigler, Park and Rec. Director, Sue Gehrz, Council Liason. Members absent: Linda McLoon, Dave Wickhem. 1. Minutes from previous meeting were approved. Carol K. gave update on Harold Jensen's position, that he appears willing to serve on the Grove Park task force, but not necessarily on the Commission. She will contact him again to ask about getting a representative from 1666 Coffman. 2. Grove Park Improvement Planning. Carol W. reported on her progress with the survey, and that she has received 2 volunteers so far for the task force. After reviewing the survey draft, we all agreed that it was a great job. We discussed some additions and subtractions of questions, especially on how detailed or generic the questions should be. A request had been submitted for a specific game a chess game with 3' high pieces. It was generally felt we should keep this level of survey broader, with a question asking about provision for other games (including horseshoes, bocce and chess). A question was raised regarding the legality of campfire pits in the park; Carol K. will research that. Carol W. will revise the survey and provide mailing labels as available. The survey will be mailed by the City, with return envelopes provided. We will attempt to deliver the surveys to 1666 Coffman without the need for postage. Sue informed us of street improvement planning going on at this time for the Grove. It includes provision for a bike path on the east side of Coffman, as part of the county trails network. It is not known at this time if an offstreet path or bicycle lane is favored. Several commissioners voiced a preference for an offstreet sidewalk, for better access to the park from the neighborhood and for the residents of 1666 to the park and neighborhood. The subject of maintenance (shoveling) of this sidew was brought up and discussed briefly. Jyneen requested that the Parks Commission be kept informed of this improvement planning, as it relates to Grove Park. 3. Falcon Heights School Improvement Planning. Carol K. presented an update. An architect has been selected Cunningham, who did the study. The target date for construction has been pushed back, to allow more time for planning the "Educational Blueprint" for the school. We have been asked to slow down our planning to accommodate their planning process. City Council will be discussing the nature of this cooperative venture at their workshop Thursday evening. Roseville will be contributing approximately $250,000 to each Roseville school for improvements, and the Commission briefly discussed the implications of comparisons between the finished school projects. Carol K. raised the question of how hard we should push for ties to the new gym, and therefore how far should the survey be circulated. After discussion of problems or concerns with gym usage adult groups, payment for F.H. Park use, preference given to Roseville Schools events it was decided that surveying the homes in Falcon Heights and within the F.H.School area would probably give an adequate sampling of city opinion on gymnasium access. Jyneen forewarned us that a tendency for schools to implement an environmental studies program may result in a request for participation, if that is part of the school's educational blueprint. 4. Ice rink update. Carol K. is optimistic for good ice this year, and hopes to have rinks open before Christmas. An experienced ice superintendent has been hired and there has been good response to ads for flooding personnel. 5. Sign landscaping. Morris reported that Andy Malzer, an Eagle Scout candidate, has expressed an interest in working on the landscaping around the Community Park sign, with Jyneen as professional advisor. As other scouts have expressed similar interests, Morris requested that the project be granted to Andy, as the first candidate. Motion seconded by Carol W. 6. Meeting adjourned at 8:50. Submitted by Jyneen Thatcher, in the absence of official secretary.
