14
15 1. Review Regular Agenda of August 9, 2021
16
17 Item 1A, Expenditures—Mayor Rafferty noted Ryland and Thayer escrow accounts and
18 he sees there are charges appearing for some time after actions was taken on those
19 matters. He's suggesting that process be improved to speed that up. City Planner
20 Larsen responded that some staffing situations have resulted in a delay in some cases but
21 they will work to improve that process.
22
23 Item 3A, Communications Specialist Position—Human Resources Manager Sawyer
24 reviewed Ms. Turner's qualifications and experience and noted the recommended salary
25 rate.
26
27 Item 3B, Paid On Call Compensation—Human Resources Manager Sawyer noted that
28 the council discussed this matter in detail at the last work session. This action reflect that
29 discussion. Mayor Rafferty noted that the pre-training pay level is very low and Ms.
30 Sawyer clarified that staff has decided to stop using that level and will start people at the
31 first step.
32
33 Item 6A, Storm Water Utility Ordinance—Community Development Director
34 Grochala explained that the council will receive a presentation from WSB &Associates
35 staff Bob Barth. A public hearing should be opened and closed is appropriate. He noted
36 that cemeteries have been moved to the exempt category per the council's work session
37 direction. Councilmember Stoesz received confirmation that there were no written or
38 emailed comments received.
39
40 Item 6B, Butler Addition—Jessica Eller, Community Development Intern, noted that
41 the council will consider a subdivision request(two single family lots) in this matter.
42
43 Item 6C, 429 Pine St, CUP and Variance Request- City Planner Larsen noted previous
44 council consideration and the applicant request for the council to visit the property. She
1

DRAFT
45 reviewed the history of use at the property. Basically the council is being asked to
46 consider a conditional use permit and a variance. She noted that the Planning and Zoning
47 board approved the CUP request and voted to deny the variance request. City Attorney
48 Squires noted the CUP history of the property; there were ordinances changes along the
49 way, the use became nonconforming and a change in use lost their grandfather rights, and
50 now they are applying for a new CUP.
51
52 Councilmember Lyden remarked that the issue with the use began when the property was
53 inspected after a complaint was received; he asked how many complaints were received?
54 Planner Larsen said complaints are anonymous but she can report that there was one
55 complaint initially and that some people spoke at the Planning and Zoning Board public
56 hearing as well. Councilmember Lyden noted that he has done some research on"animal
57 units" and has seen that the City of Ramsey has no limit on properties over 20 acres. For
58 him, it's a question of reasonable and fair use of one's property.
59
60 Councilmember Ruhland asked if the applicant's attorney is comfortable with the finding
61 that the 1960's CUP is no longer valid and City Attorney Square said not but that he is
62 comfortable with his finding. Councilmember Ruhland asked if it is an assumption that
63 there were no animals present when the property began being used for BMX; Mr. Squire
64 said there are facts and he is comfortable in the finding. Councilmember Ruhland noted
65 that there was some question about the waste management plan since the applicant didn't
66 feel that staff was able to give any direction in that area. Councilmember Ruhland asked
67 about how the acreage was determined; did staff s determination include such things as
68 wetlands and easements? Planner Larsen explained that there was not an official survey
69 so staff utilized Anoka County GIS to find the property lines and determine the size so
70 there was nothing subtracted.
71
72 The meeting was adjourned at 6:25 p.m.
73
74 These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting held on

14 1. (5:00 p.m.) Closed Session—Pending litigation regarding St. Clair Estates
15 (see separate minutes)
16 2. Lyngblomsten Development Update—Community Development Director
17 Grochala updated the council on the status of the development, including assistance that
18 was planned from the City. The development contract needs to be updated since it is two
19 years old and while that is more of an administrative process, the developer is now
20 requesting additional assistance in the amount of$500,000. Staff has looked at the
21 available budget in the tax increment district and feels the City can go up to $400,000
22 without having to modify the district. Anything over that amount would necessitate a
23 modification to the district as it is currently established and a process that would extend a
24 couple of months. Staff has provided the suggestion of$400,000 to the developer and
25 they are still asking if the City would be able to provide the remainder of the requesting
26 assistance ($100,000) in any other way. Mr. Grochala noted that this will be coming to
27 the council (Economic Development Authority) as soon as the council deems possible.
28
29 Councilmember Cavegn asked when the project was supposed to be completed and staff
30 said they were shooting for fall of 2019 for the start, however, the pandemic shut down
31 industry. Councilmember Cavegn asked if there is an additional funding possibility
32 they'd recommend. Mr. Grochala noted that the $400,000 is available through TIF but
33 above that he would probably have to look at roadway funding in conjunction with
34 improvements that will be occurring in the area.
35
36 Councilmember Stoesz remarked that there was discussion about the payback period and
37 wonders where that discussion stands. Community Development Director Grochala
38 updated the council on that schedule. Councilmember Stoesz asked if extending the TIF
39 timeframe would provide the additional funds and Mr. Grochala said yes,but that would
40 push the project ahead another year because an amendment process would be required.
41
42 Councilmember Lyden asked how much assistance was planned and Mr. Grochala said
43 $3.6 million; they are requesting an additional $500,000. When asked about the total
44 valuation at the end, Mr. Grochala suggested $33 million for the building, with land $45

45 million, and with all costs $65 million.
46
47 The council discussed options and directed staff to offer the $400,000. Staff will work
48 on a date for an Economic Development Agency(EDA)meeting (August 301h or
49 September 7th)
50 Administrator Cotton noted that the Minnesota Department of Health has been in contact
51 with her about using the former YMCA facility for COVID testing and that type of action
52 could possibly be coordinated together for a special meeting. Councilmember Stoesz
53 added that, should the City enter an agreement for a testing site, he'd like assurance that
54 cleaning will be included.
55 3. Review Regular Council Agenda of August 23, 2021 -
56
57 Item I—Expenditure for newsletter. Mayor Rafferty asked how the new
58 Communications position will impact those costs and Administrator Cotton explained
59 that staff intends that the function of design be brought in house but mailing and printing
60 services will still be outsourced.
61 Item 3A—Mayor Rafferty remarked that there is energy to move ahead but he feels there
62 are questions remaining. It seems to make sense to look to ISG for more information.
63 Item 3B—Administrator Cotton explained that staff is recommending that the current
64 Human Resources Manager be appointed to a new position of Human Resources and
65 Communications Manager based on her new duties. The salary step recommended is the
66 same as where Ms. Sawyer is at on her current wage scale.
67 Mayor Rafferty asked if there is opportunity to downscale the position if perhaps the
68 communications position were to begin reporting to the City Administrator. Ms. Cotton
69 explained how the position and function have been designed to be a part of the Human
70 Resources Manager responsibilities.
71 Item 6A—Storm Water Utility—Second reading on the ordinance.
72 Item 6B—CRJ/CSAH 49 (Hodgson Road) Truck Utility Improvement Project—City
73 Engineer Hankee explained the pending project and how the improvements will impact
74 existing lines.

42 Services Director DeGardner reviewed his written report requesting that the council consider
43 authorize execution of a services contract with ISG Consulting to provide additional service to assist
44 in development of the hybrid-management model for the Recreation and Community Center facility.
45 He reviewed the services provided to date by ISG Consulting. There are efficiencies in continuing
46 to work with ISG.
47 Mayor Rafferty noted that the City has received a feasibility report that was prepared by ISG. He
48 recognizes that there are many things to explore yet; this will allow more info to come forward.
49 Councilmember Stoesz asked if there is a deadline for completing the service contract and Mr.
50 DeGardner remarked that there is not and it is appropriate that the contract can spread forward.

64 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT REPORT
65 6A) Consider 2nd Reading of Ordinance No. 07-21, Establishing a Storm Water Utility—
66 Community Development Director Grochala asked the council to consider approval of the second
67 reading and passage of an ordinance that will establish a City of Lino Lakes storm water utility. This
68 would provide the City with a dedicated funding source for storm water activities. He reviewed past
69 consideration and the public input element. Staff proposes operation of a utility by January 1, 2022.
70 Mayor Rafferty noted that establishment of a storm water utility would bring transparency to how the
71 City funds storm water maintenance activities. I would also augment funding for important work
72 including funds from non-residential properties.
73 Councilmember Cavegn moved to waive the full reading of Ordinance No. 07-21. Councilmember
74 Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote.

78 Councilmember Stoesz remarked that he is voting no because he sees this as a fee that will not show

80 6B) Consider Resolution 21-87, Order Project,Approve the Plans and Specifications and
81 Authorize the Ad for Bid, CRJ/CSAH 49 (Hodgson Road) Trunk Utility Improvements—City
82 Engineer Hankee reviewed her written report outlining a utility improvement project in the Hodgson
83 Road area. She noted how the improvements will provide additional services to current and future
84 development. Staff will hold up on bidding the project until certain development funding issues
85 (Lyngblomsten) are resolved.
86 Councilmember Stoesz asked if the pipe will impact the new trail in the area of Lyngblomsten. Ms.
87 Hankee noted that the side of the street for the trail has not been determined but a trail will still work on
88 top of this piping.
89 Councilmember Cavegn asked what would happen with this project if Lyngblomsten were to be
90 postponed. Ms. Hankee said this would be postponed as well. Community Development Director
91 Grochala added that staff would probably relook and decide what would be feasible.
92 Councilmember Lyden remarked that the council has discussed lift station design in the past; he
93 wonders if there is a point where you have to look at that cost. Ms. Hankee noted the City's standard
94 for that work; there is analysis available when making funding decisions.
95 Councilmember Stoesz moved to approve Resolution No. 21-87 as presented. Councilmember
96 Cavegn seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote.

14 1. 2022 Draft Budget& Tax Levy—Finance Director Lynch noted the budget
15 memorandum included in the packet and highlights noted therein. The only updates to
16 the preliminary budget book relate to the capture value from tax increment in the county
17 valuation numbers and fiscal disparities; they impact the tax rate slightly. Three memos
18 have been provided in response to discussion at the last budget session. She reviewed the
19 memos:
20 - Computer Replacement Memo—a response from Metro INET explaining that the
21 City's computer replacement plan is within their recommendations. Looking at
22 lease options would fall on City staff to investigate and implement. The memo
23 provides information on services as well. Councilmember Stoesz remarked that
24 leasing is a trend that will probably become more reliable in the future.
25 - Car Wash Detail and Large Fleet Washes Memo—providing more information as
26 requested at last session.
27 - Vehicle#617 Memo -providing more information as requested at last session.
28
29 Mayor Rafferty discussed the option of adding a wash bay at the Public Works facility.
30 Public Services Director DeGardner expanded on the idea, noting that staff tried to look
31 at that as a more permanent option as well as options to outsource washing.
32
33 Councilmember Lyden noted that he likes the idea of in-floor heating. He also wonders
34 what$250,000 gets you in the way of how many vehicles could be stored in a heated
35 space? Director DeGardner remarked that staff really looked this from a high level view
36 —how to address concern of vehicle washing—and came up with the estimate for having
37 an in-house washing facility as well as other options.
38
39 Councilmember Cavegn asked how much this would extend the life of vehicles and Mr.
40 DeGardner said significantly, adding that rust is a big problem.
41
42 Mayor Rafferty asked, regarding Vehicle#617, is there a safety issue (doors). Mr.
43 DeGardner pointed out the picture in the budget packet, and added that the vehicle was
44 found without a charge earlier today and that isn't a good condition for public safety

45 vehicles. Mr. DeGardner reviewed what would be covered by the estimate. Director
46 Swenson added that this vehicle is a 2013 model and it is indicative of aged fleet
47 vehicles. He noted the importance of having public safety vehicles that are reliable.
48
49 Councilmember Cavegn noted his opinion regarding the following budget matters:
50 - Aesthetics is not a concern;
51 - Additional training for Fire Department(training is good; is additional needed?)
52 - MNSPECT inspections services (needs refresher); Mr. Grochala said that is
53 contract inspection services for summer;
54 - Woodridge Estate lights—postpone for this year;
55 - Salt spreader—do without this year;
56 - Lois Lane trail—get by without for a year or two;
57 - Hockey rink—delay;
58 - Resurfacing basketball courts—not sure about funding that work;
59 - Flushing(Director Lynch explained that it was within the water fund and it is
60 being taken out anyway).
61
62 Administrator Cotton noted pull back discussed at the last meeting on the trail and hockey
63 rink as well as basketball courts and Birch Park lighting; seems like the council wanted
64 more discussion.
65
66 Councilmember Stoesz asked if there is any improvement possible on contracted street
67 lighting. Director DeGardner said the City is locked in with Xcel and Connexus on those.
68 When Councilmember Stoesz asked about upgrade, Mr. DeGardner explained that
69 upgrades are being accomplished by Xcel/Connexus on their schedule and any
70 acceleration would mean the City would have to fund the work. Councilmember Stoesz
71 asked if there will be any revenue from small cell; Mr. DeGardner indicated that is a few
72 years out. When asked about additional water tower revenue (new tower), Mr.
73 DeGardner indicated that unfortunately there is no expectation.
74
75 Councilmember Lyden said it's hard to go about the budget this way; he would do better
76 with a different perspective. He'd like to start with priorities first; a lens through which
77 the council can look at the community with a mission statement and core values. He
78 suggests they begin with whether or not there will be a tax rate increase and how much;
79 and then have staff bring back options.
80
81 The mayor pointed out that staff has brought forward a budget and the elected officials
82 are responsible for deciding what's funded.
83
84 Mayor Rafferty offered his opinion on the following line items:
85 - Woodbridge lights (no problem delaying);
86 - Lois Lane (agree to delay);
87 - Sunrise Park hockey rink(walked it and doesn't see problems);
88 - Basketball courts (visited and saw variety of decay);
89 - Hockey lights—he likes the ability for users to manage rather than paid staff,
2
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
90 - Duty crew—concern about having a revolving door;
91
92 He asked if the Public Safety Department has come up with the plan for half the units for
93 a duty crew?
94
95 Public Safety Director Swenson concurred that there is turnover risk with park time staff
96 (Fire duty crew)but they are trying to keep costs down. The number of part time staff
97 proposed is based on the research they've done and based on the lowest possible cost.
98 Mayor Rafferty asked if there is a way to be transitional while still meeting the goals;
99 there is something that needs to be accomplished and he's committed to it. Public Safety
100 Director Swenson explained the need in the police division to have resources; the time to
101 respond to low level calls is growing. When the mayor asked about adding fire personnel
102 through police hiring, Director Swenson explained the history of bringing forward the
103 duty crew idea after much work by the department and with the idea that there could be a
104 situation where public safety is under resourced.
105
106 Councilmember Lyden noted that the Public Safety Director is consistently giving the
107 council the information needed to understand how to provide adequate public safety
108 services.
109
110 Councilmember Cavegn asked if the council will decide on a tax rate that is acceptable.
111
112 The mayor remarked that he is not comfortable with the current number.
113
114 Councilmember Lyden said he'd be happy with a flat tax rate but he isn't sure it's
115 realistic; he'd like to see what a flat tax would look like.
116
117 Councilmember Stoesz noted that he's been looking at basically the same budget for all
118 the years he's served on the council. He struggles with what to cut and has great respect
119 for public safety.
120
121 Administrator Cotton remarked that there have been a few cuts noted and she has
122 quantified that to a reduction $106,500 and that would result in a tax rate of 41.966 ($157
123 tax increase to $300,000 home with $96 of that being valuation increase). She added that
124 staff has reviewed how American Rescue Act funds could impact the budget and have not
125 found additional areas (beyond negative impacts of COVID)but some of the surplus
126 funds that will be available in the City budget are probably related to CARES funds.
127
128 The council received an update on the Watermark development and when that tax
129 valuation will be included on the City's tax rolls.
130
131 Mayor Rafferty asked what it would take to get down to last year's rate (40.109) or 41.0.
132 Roughly$350,000 to get to 41.0.
133

CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
134 Councilmember Cavegn noted that Blue Heron activities and a coordinator to run them
135 are not currently included in the budget and he feels that is needed.
136
137 Mayor Rafferty noted interest in getting the dump truck purchase back into the budget
138 ($250,000). Also getting something going to look at public works facility(planning
139 discussion). Those would be one-time costs so maybe an appropriate use for surplus. Is
140 there a way for staff to come back with cuts that total $350,000?
141
142 The council discussed the rec center and staffing and the possibility of having staff do
143 City work as well. Director DeGardner remarked that it really depends on what duties are
144 assigned for one area and if there is room to expand responsibilities. Administrator
145 Cotton suggested that ultimately the structure of how a facility is operated will determine
146 staffing.
147
148 Councilmember Lyden noted that he likes the idea of asking staff to come back with
149 options to reach a determined rate.
150
151 Director DeGardner noted that it was helpful for him to look at Page 10 and 11 of the
152 budget information—it shows what is added; if you were to delete every single one of
153 those it would equate to savings of just over$267,000.
154
155 Councilmember Lyden noted surplus funds and wonders about how those could best be
156 utilized.
157
158 Mayor Rafferty remarked that in some ways it comes down to personnel and isn't it better
159 to not increase in that area rather than cut; and in the area of upgrading vehicles, he
160 doesn't think there is a taxpayer value there. Councilmember Lyden argued for the value
161 of quality vehicles.
162
163 Councilmember Stoesz asked about the impact of dipping below the reserve policy level.
164 Ms. Cotton explained that the greatest implication would probably be to the bond rating
165 agencies and it would be difficult to make the argument that it's all pandemic related.
166
167 Mayor Rafferty reviewed those things that had been discussed for removal and suggested
168 they could go to surplus (except Woodbridge, Lois Lane, hockey rinks) and he'd like to
169 go back to the Ford Explorer vehicles. He believes that the City should stay away from
170 using one time funds for personnel. He'd like to see what staff can come up with for the
171 rest(to reach a tax rate of 41.0).
172
173 Dorothy Rademacher(audience), Quad Chamber, noted her involvement in the
174 community. She supports public safety and addressing staffing needs in that area. From
175 observing the conversation tonight, she cannot determine if the goal of the council is to
176 hold the tax rate firm, increase it or decrease it. She suggests that the budget should be
177 looked at like a business whereby you must deal with realities. Ms. Rademacher added,
4
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
178 regarding Blue Heron activities, that she is currently looking at the four days of activities
179 to determine what was profitable and paid the expenses.
180
181 The council had provided information on possible budget reductions for staff to work
182 with and identification of some items to be funded by surplus.
183
184 The mayor said he would prefer to remove Alexandra House funding; Councilmembers
185 Cavegn and Lyden disagreed. Councilmember Stoesz said he supports that program but
186 doesn't believe City funding is appropriate.
187
188 Administrator Cotton noted an increase of$71,000 to the Pavement Management Fund
189 and a $30,000 (back to budget level) increase to the Parks and Trails Fund. Mayor
190 Rafferty remarked that he would like to see those line items funded and is comfortable
191 utilizing surplus funds. Councilmember Cavegn noted that he'd prefer to not utilize
192 surplus funds for those expenses because he considers them ongoing.
193
194 Administrator Cotton noted capital expenses and that many cities utilize their surplus
195 dollars to pay for capital expenses because they are near onetime expenses. She asked if
196 the council is comfortable with that concept.
197
198 Mayor Rafferty asked about adding some funding to move forward and get more
199 information on public works facility needs and possible planning. Administrator Cotton
200 noted that a traditional source of funding for that type of look would be the Closed Bond
201 Fund. Director DeGardner remarked that there has been a lot of time and money spent on
202 options and concepts and the next step would be looking at financing that would be
203 available. As far as the concepts that have been presented, Mr. DeGardner added that
204 things have changed that would impact planning. Considering that as part of a full view
205 of future needs will be a future work session discussion.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM 1G
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Lisa Hogstad-Osterhues, Deputy City Clerk
MEETING DATE: September 13, 2021
TOPIC: Consider Approval of Resolution No. 21-89, Application
for Temporary On-Sale Liquor License and Exempt
Gambling Permit for and for Lino Lakes Lions Club
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
The Lino Lakes Lions Club is planning its annual fundraising"prime rib dinner"to be held on
Saturday, October 9, 2021 at St. Joseph Catholic Church, 171 Elm Street.
BACKGROUND
The Lions Club is requesting approval of a 1 to 4 Day Temporary On-Sale Liquor License,
which is necessary to allow the group to mix and dispense liquor that will be served as part of the
dinner.
In addition, they are requesting approval of a LG220 Exempt Gambling Permit for a raffle. Non-
profit organizations are allowed, under the State Gambling Statutes, to apply for an exemption
from a gambling license if they conduct five (5) or fewer gambling occasions per calendar year.
The Lino Lakes Lions Club conducts five (5) or less per calendar and, therefore, remains exempt
from requiring a gambling license.
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 349, Section 349.166, Subd. 2 does, however, require that the non-
profit organizations applying for the exemption permit, notify the city that they are applying for
the exemption and receive local approval.
Staff has determined that the Lino Lakes Lions Club is eligible for the licenses under city
regulations. The Public Safety Department has conducted the required background check on the
applicant has found no reason to deny.
A copy of the application and a copy of the certificate of liquor liability insurance are on file in
the city clerk's office.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Resolution No. 21-89, approving a 1 to 4 Day Temporary On-Sale liquor license and
Adopt a motion approving the application for exemption of the Gambling Permit with no waiting
period.

13
14 1. 2022 Draft Budget& Tax Levy—Finance Director Lynch provided a general
15 overview. The first two pages of the budget book provide summary and comparison
16 information to the 2021 budget. As the council makes decisions on the budget, these
17 summaries can change. She noted that with the current numbers, the tax rate would rise
18 from 40.10 to 42.06. Changes were made at the last meeting to the Capital Equipment
19 Replacement Fund(a reduction and a transfer from reserves—total funding of$250,000);
20 the single axle dump truck purchase is shown in the budget but not funded currently.
21 Regarding the fleet, staff is providing some comparison data for the Ford Explorer and
22 the Chevy Tahoe as requested by the council. The proposed budget also moves $295,000
23 into the storm water utility fund with its own budget, assuming passage of the storm
24 water utility fee. She also noted the adjustments proposed at the department level. Ms.
25 Lynch pointed out the Enterprise Funds (water and sewer), including some increases
26 based on proposed rate changes (2.5% increase). Also provided are comparisons to tax
27 rates in other cities of comparable size, etc. The council discussed the impact on cities of
28 Local Government Aid(LGA) and Fiscal Disparities. The valuation numbers from
29 Anoka County should be clear in late August/early September. The council reviewed the
30 personnel changes proposed. In regard to American Rescue Act funds, staff indicated
31 that it would be best to assume that those funds are not available to augment the budget
32 unless staff has specified so.
33
34 Questions from the council:
35
36 - City marketing—the mayor asked if that item is related to the duties of the new
37 communications position; Administrator Cotton explained the line item represents
38 a contribution to the Lino Lakes Ambassador's program, employee appreciation
39 and recognition, plaques and awards, and food for special meeting situations;
40 - Subscriptions—Councilmember Cavegn asked about the jump in the budget and
41 Ms. Cotton explained that has to do with her assuming the position of
42 Administrator and her involvement in more organizations as well as presuming
43 the communications person will want to be involved in some organizations;
1
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
44 - Advertising, Printing and Publishing—Ms. Cotton pointed out that staff has found
45 that advertising on social media has been the most effective tool in recruiting for
46 positions and moving toward that effort is reflected in the proposed budget;
47 - Contracted Services—Councilmember Stoesz remarked that the total of
48 contracted services throughout the budget totals $684,000 and he wonders if those
49 contracts are reviewed/renegotiated regularly; Ms. Cotton reviewed a few
50 contracts to explain how they vary in how they can be renegotiated or if it's
51 appropriate; she considers it staff s responsibility to stay on top of the contracts
52 they manage and make sure the City continues to get the best for the money;
53 - Elections—when the mayor questioned the reduction, Ms. Lynch explained that
54 the base budget is 2020 and in 2022 there will be two fewer elections;
55 - Cable TV—Ms. Cotton noted the service of a video tech is now provided through
56 NorthMetro TV rather than as a City function;
57 - Charter Commission—the council was informed that the budget has been
58 developed based on staffs best estimate of the levy(state law authorizes a
59 percentage); the commission's costs have been low the last few years and the
60 remaining budget returns to the general fund surplus;
61 - Finance Department—credit card fees for the new credit card system are included
62 but as an estimate because staff doesn't know how much that new service will be
63 utilized;
64 - County Assessor Contract—cost has been reduced based on county staff
65 innovations in the assessment process; Councilmember Stoesz remarked that the
66 City may reach a point where it isn't cost efficient to outsource the services and
67 he hopes staff will monitor for that;
68 - Criminal Attorney—the contract is five years (at a static cost); new contract brings
69 an increase but the fees are set again for five years;
70 - WSB Retainer—Mr. Grochala noted that some funding will be coming from the
71 storm water utility; there will be additional billings for specific work;
72 - Anoka County Aerial Photography—Mr. Grochala explained that new flyover
73 photos are created every couple years by the county; there is a charge to
74 developers (per property) devoted to this cost;
75 - Police Services—The mayor would like to remove the line item for Alexandra
76 House (he supports their work but feels it is a service not appropriate for city
77 funding); Director Swenson noted that Alexandra House would like to come
78 before the council to speak on the services they provide (he noted that other
79 Anoka County cities are providing funding to them) (later in the meeting a
80 majority of councilmembers requested to hear from Alexandra House);
81 - Small Tools—the specifications provided for replacement computers would be for
82 new units; staff indicated that the units are about four years old so replacement is
83 recommended; Councilmember Cavegn noted his experience indicates that
84 computers do not need to be replaced after just four years; Councilmember Stoesz
85 remarked that a lease agreement is another option;
86 - Zoom Fees—Administrator Cotton is keeping an eye on user fees; the Public
87 Safety division continues to utilize Zoom for some functions;
2
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
88 - Fire Department—the mayor noted the proactive approach of moving to part time
89 duty crews and suggested that the City start with a two position base rather than
90 four; Director Swenson explained OSHA regulations that require a certain level of
91 staffing in order to perform certain functions; the mayor challenged Director
92 Swenson to work on possibilities, taking into consideration current cross trained
93 staff. Mayor Rafferty suggested that new police officers could perhaps be
94 required to be cross trained for a minimum of five years; he suggests management
95 staff work on ideas in that area; the council received an update on how the cross
96 trained concept has worked and concerns about services going forward;
97 - Adding Computers to E 11 and E 12 (vehicles)—Director Swenson explained the
98 benefit of having computers added;
99 - Building Inspections—a part time building inspector would change to full time,
100 taking on the half time duties that are currently covered by the fire inspector; the
101 average wait time for inspection has been brought down to within a week(from
102 12 working days); moving to some Zoom inspections has been a mixed bag;
103 - Woodridge Estates lighting - 15 lights and electrical line need to be replaced; staff
104 is proposing to spread the significant budget cost over four years;
105 - Salt Spreader—Director DeGardner noted that the City currently has one but it
106 would improve services to add another unit;
107 - Vehicle Washing—The mayor asked for a run down on what vehicles are washed
108 and also how that is accomplished; Director DeGardner explained that even the
109 large vehicles are power washed in house; the mayor asked staff to investigate the
110 best process for vehicle washing going forward;
111 - Civic Grounds Maintenance—Councilmember Cavegn said he is not in favor of
112 spending additional funds to add to current landscaping around City Hall because
113 he feels it is adequate now; Director DeGardner noted that they have ongoing
114 maintenance needs, i.e. replace winter kill and pay for mulch, and that is the bulk
115 of the budget request;
116 - Parks Maintenance Position—Director DeGardner explained that the current
117 staffing level goes back to 1997 but many responsibilities and park properties
118 have been added since then; Councilmember Stoesz asked for a comparison with
119 other cities and park service workers (withdrew his request later); Administrator
120 Cotton added that there have been increased phone calls, etc. indicating that
121 additional service to the parks is needed;
122 - Lois Lane—Director DeGardner explained this is a"next phase" for improving
123 the trail; long term expectation is lengthening; Mr. DeGardner noted also that the
124 other park project included in the budget is replacement of one of the Sunrise Park
125 hockey rinks; Mayor Rafferty suggested that this could be an item held for a year
126 or so;
127 - Resurfacing Basketball Courts—Mayor Rafferty asked about holding off for this
128 year and Mr. DeGardner said it's a need for regular maintenance issue but it
129 probably wouldn't be drastic if not done next year(to be discussed further);
130 - Park Lighting for Rinks—Mayor Rafferty asked about the status of having all self-
131 operating lighting and Director DeGardner updated the council and noted that the
3
CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
132 Birch park lighting is currently manual so is a needed update (council directed
133 pull it off for more discussion);
134 -
135 The council discussed capital equipment; there are more expenditures listed than
136 budgeted funds:
137 - Tahoe versus Ford— Public Safety has prepared information indicating the value
138 in resale, savings in service and preference of drivers; the resale history is based
139 on data received from an auction house; Mayor Rafferty pointed out that
140 consideration should include the higher up-front cost of the Tahoe;
141 - Vehicle Rotation—Mayor Rafferty noted a rotation for a vehicle with 10,000
142 miles (#617) and he'd like more staff research on not rotating for another year(by
143 getting repair work done); he's not concerned about rust if it isn't a safety issue;
144 - Bobcat and Ford F350 with Dump box—Mayor feels those are important
145 purchases and he'd also like to find a way to get the dump truck;
146
147 The council discussed the Enterprise Funds:
148 - Water Fund—Ms. Lynch noted that the projections assume a rate increase (four
149 percent); expenditures include a new employee (50 percent) as anticipated in rate
150 study; Councilmember Stoesz asked why the water sales are so much higher than
151 in 2019 and Ms. Cotton explained that water use is cyclical relating to rainfall,
152 temperature,prison usage and other variables; Councilmember Stoesz asked for
153 an update at some point on progress toward fixed meter reading;
154 - Unidirectional Flushing(Water Fund)—Councilmember Cavegn suggested that be
155 removed from the budget; Staff will provide additional information;
156 - Mailed Consumer Confidence Report(Water Fund)—Councilmember Cavegn
157 asked if it has to be mailed out; Director DeGardner explained that there are
158 requirements to provide information to the public and the City has chosen to mail;
159 it's possible there will be information that needs to go out regarding water
160 treatment so this funding could go for either that or a CCR and he feels both are
161 important efforts;
162 - Sewer Fund—There is a ten percent increase in street maintenance; the FTE and
163 vehicle for the new position is fifty percent charged to this fund;
164 - Storm Water(new enterprise fund) - first year for this enterprise so budget is
165 predicted.
166
167 Park Board Chair Pat Huelman announced that he is attending to let the council know that
168 the Park Board takes it role in park improvement planning very seriously and supports a
169 continuing budget for those efforts and to the Parks and Trails Fund.
170
171 2. Set Meeting Date for Next Budget Work Session—The council will meet at a
172 special budget session on August 23rd, following the regular City Council meeting.

A salesman for the company stopped by while I was out and spoke to my elderly and confused father. They
ended up calling me and offering service. I told them I was busy. They said if I wanted a service that day they
would give me a $99 treatment. They told me later that they did not do the interior since we were currently
moving and that they would return. And they would contact me in the future for quarterly services. We began
having a big problem with bites to the kids so I called them to have the interior sprayed. They charged me $149
for the treatment. It was supposed to be free since they did not complete the first treatment. In addition they said
if I have them come quarterly they will return for free in between if there is a problem. When I contacted them
they refused to reverse the charge, less than thirty days from the original incomplete service. I told them I would
not have them back out and they have since called and emailed me to let me know there is a cancellation fee.

We request the customer calls or emails us to discuss these concerns further, please just ask for *****
The allegation that services were sold to her father who is unable to understand the agreement is extremely
serious and we would like to investigate this further. We have a service agreement with *** *******, not her
father. We need clarification on if this is a situation where her father signed up on her behalf, the signed service
agreement has been attached for review.
Interior services and reservices between regular maintenance services are always free. The only services
scheduled for this customer's home were regular maintenance services, on the schedule shown in the signed
agreement. The first two services are spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart to break down pest breeding cycles, then
proceed on a quarterly maintenance schedule.
The customer received a discount in exchange for agreeing to a year's worth of maintenance service. This
agreement is contingent on the customer reimbursing us for this discount if they do not follow through with the
year's worth of maintenance services. This is the "cancellation" fee the customer is referring to, and was waived
by us prior to the submission of this complaint.
It is always our goal to part ways on good terms, we urge the customer to call or email us to discuss their
concerns with our manager,

I am rejecting this response because: I was not home so they have no contract with me. I agreed to the initial
service only, no commitment. They were pushy to perform the initial service. I called to complete the first
service not to request a second. They ask for me to contact them but I did so immediately upon seeing the
charge and they had no interest in resolving this until I filed with the BBB.

On Saturday August 13th an unsolicited girl on a Segway came up to my house offering professional
extermination services for$99.00. She said it was a deal because they were in our neighborhood. I agreed to the
service and signed the form on her IPAD. I explained we have a issue with bugs in kitchen and I'd been
spraying and spraying but they continue to come back. She said the service was familiar with this type of
situation, and said they would spray in baseboards because that is where they hide. The "service" came today. It
was one girl with a bottle of spray. It was obvious she did not know what she was doing. She sprayed a few
times around the refrigerator and I had to tell her where to spray and to spray the baseboards. I then pulled up
the fraudulent agreement-it is not $99.00, is a year contract they're trying to hook me into. I called, text, and
emailed the company saying I wanted to cancel.

We apologize that you have had a bad experience, and want more details on what happened. We've been trying
to contact you regarding your concerns unsuccessfully- it looks like we have had the wrong email on file
*************************** and haven't been able to reach via call. Dale will be reaching out to go over
the situation shortly. It does look like you were billed incorrectly, so the charge from 8/16/21 has been reversed
and should reflect on your account in 3-5 business days.

A sales person came to our house when I was at work told my husband who has early dementia that his wife
sent him. told my husband that I wanted service and had him get his debit card to pay for the first service. I have
5 dogs and would never spray pesticides around them. I called right away and they said they would cancel and
not take money from his account but they did. I am going to call them again tomorrow but from reading the
reviews I doubt we will have much luck. Basically they scammed a senior with a medical issue
Response

We take an accusation like this very seriously. When reviewing this person's account- it appears they had never
been charged for a service.

A salesman came to my door offering me services for$90. I was under the impression this was a one time
service. After signing the paper contract, I found out through reading the fine print on the website that this was a
recurring charge, not a one time thing. When I tried to cancel, I was informed that since it was past 24hrs of me
signing, and I would be breaking the contract. I feel as though I was scammed.
Response

We'd really appreciate a call or email from this customer so we can get more feedback and investigate his
concerns further, our goal is always to part ways on good terms -just call and ask for ****.
There was a$210.00 discount given to the customer on their initial flushout service in exchange for signing up
for a year's worth of service, the customer requested to cancel about 3 weeks after this service was performed.
Her original complaint from July 2020 is that she thought the quarterly service would be cheaper, not that she
believed it was a one-time only service. No service was priced at $90 like mentioned, the first service was $29,
and subsequent services were $119. Our agreement is that this discount be returned to us if the service
subscription is cancelled before a year's worth of services are performed.
We take several steps to prevent misunderstandings regarding our service agreement, including:
We've verified that the agreement cannot be presented to a customer in a way that does not disclose cost, or that
it is a 12 month agreement.
(For example, the agreement cannot be zoomed in on an iPad to show only the signature line, and directly above
the signature line we've noted in bold"This agreement is for an initial period of 12 months.")
We send the customer copies of their agreement for review before starting services
We emailed a copy of this customer's agreement to the email address provided, ********************, a day
before services began
We texted a link to this consumer's agreement to the number she provided, ***

I had Joshuas pest service since mid 2020 but recently attempted to cancel service due to sale of property. I
contacted Joshua's on at least four occasions to cancel service and was always told that only a supervisor could
cancel but that none was available and they would call me. No calls were ever returned. I then sent multiple
inquiries via email also with no response and finally deleted my payment info and disallowed any further
charges. Joshuas however continues to send me bills and refuses to cancel and close my account.

This customer's account with us was cancelled on 4/10/2021. We left the customer several voicemails and
apologize for the game of phone tag, we certainly do not want her to think her request was ignored.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: The account is still active on the web portal and I received a bill as
recently as May 1 st so I am not confident that the account is actually closed. Pardon my skepticism but after
repeated calls to the contact center and commitments for a supervisor to call me back, I've received no call
backs and continued to have bills arrive. Attached is the copy of the email from Joshua's on May 1 st asking for
payment so if the account was closed on April 21 st, why are billing requests continuing? Additionally, I am
also including a screen shot of the account details which show my email and phone number are both accurate
and up to date in Joshua's system. If repeated attempts to contact me have been made, then Im at a loss as to
why no voicemail was ever left.
Bottom line... I need some evidence of account closure to be confident that at some point I wont be dealing with
derogatory reports to my credit.

Attached are screenshots from our customer service system showing the account is frozen, the balance is $0,
and a few shots of outbound call attempts from our phone system. Please let me know if this suffices and if
there is anything else we can provide to you that would put you at ease that your account with us has been
permanently closed and you owe no balance.

I had a year contract of termite treatment with Josuha's pest control. I paid $160 for installment the bait and I
was heard they would come and check every 3-6months but nobody visited the site for a year. I did not want to
renew my contract due to the quality of service and the teller said they will take termite treatment bait out from
my house. I already paid for that a year ago. I want them to refund $160 if they take termite treatment bait out
or leave the termite treatment bait.
Response
04/29/2021
It is standard and effective to check Sentricon bait stations annually, it is a best practice to disturb the stations
minimally so that the pests are not deterred from feeding. We reviewed this with the customer at the time he
agreed to the service and are attaching a copy of his signed service agreement.
The disputed $160 charge from July 2020 was not actually for the customer's termite service, he had another
subscription for general pests, we are attaching a copy of this service agreement also.

I added the wrong receipt. That was mosquito control and I cancelled right after a month later because
the service was not effective. Termite control was $300 and I paid in full last year for 2 year contract. You
guys pulled out termite stations I installed before you guys started. You need to put it back. I paid it.

AGENDA ITEM 6A
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Katie Larsen, City Planner
MEETING DATE: September 13, 2021
TOPIC: Consider 15t Reading of Ordinance No. 09-21 Interim
Ordinance Creating a Moratorium for Mini Self-Storage
Facilities
VOTE REQUIRED: 315
INTRODUCTION
At the October 9, 2019 Planning & Zoning Board meeting, staff and the Board discussed the
potential need for additional regulations related to mini self-storage facilities. Staff has
recently received inquiries from developers wanting to construct more mini self-storage
facilities. Since the City is currently updating its zoning ordinance, staff recommends a one (1)
year moratorium on mini self-storage facilities to allow time to review and possibly amend the
ordinance.
BACKGROUND
Mini self-storage facilities are only allowed in the City's industrial zoning districts with a
conditional use permit. The following conditions apply:
1. No single building shall be greater than one hundred fifty(150) feet in length.
2. If an"on-premises" caretaker dwelling unit is provided on site, construction of said
dwelling unit shall conform to all design standard regulations for multiple family
dwelling units of the Minnesota State Building Code 8-5.
3. No retailing, wholesaling, manufacturing, repair, or other such activity other than
storage is to occur within the mini self-storage facility.
There are currently no regulations regarding the number or types of buildings allowed on site or
building design standards. In October 2019, the Board and staff discussed the interest in
indoor, climate controlled self-storage facilities that are housed in one building as shown
below.
1
fi• t
•G 1
As we work through the zoning ordinance updates, staff will present additional information for
consideration regarding individual mini self-storage facilities, indoor climate controlled single
buildings, design standards, location, etc.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the interim ordinance creating a 1 year moratorium for mini self-
storage facilities.
The Planning &Zoning Board held a public hearing on September 8, 2021. Board members
expressed concerns regarding the length of the moratorium. Staff explained the 1 year was a
maximum timeframe and the ordinance amendment could occur sooner than that. There were
no public comments. The Board recommended the interim ordinance creating a 1 year
moratorium for mini self-storage facilities with a 5-1 vote.

ORDINANCE NO. 09-21
INTERIM ORDINANCE CREATING A MORATORIUM FOR MINI
SELF-STORAGE FACILITIES WITHIN THE
CITY OF LINO LAKES
The City Council of Lino Lakes ordains:
Section 1. Purpose and Intent. The purpose and intent of this Ordinance is to
exercise the City's authority under Minnesota Statutes 462.355, Subd. 4 by the creation
of an interim ordinance which has the effect of creating a moratorium on all mini self-
storage facilities in Lino Lakes.
Section 2. Preliminary Findings: The City Council hereby makes the
following preliminary findings to serve as the basis for the necessary study to be made
during the moratorium, which serve as the reasons why it is in the public interest for the
City to declare a moratorium by virtue of this Ordinance:
1) City staff has determined that current regulations do not adequately address and
regulate mini and self-storage uses, particularly given the increase in the
prevalence of this type of use in metro area suburban communities.
2) A moratorium will provide sufficient time for the City to review the City's
Zoning Ordinance, and study alternative regulations that might be adopted to
adequately address the uses within the moratorium enacted by this ordinance.
3) A moratorium will also ensure that ordinance changes will not need to be
expedited and that all issues related to mini and self-storage uses can be
completely examined.
Section 3. Moratorium: Until the Planning &Zoning Board and City Council
complete studies related to the aforementioned findings, the City shall not accept or
continue to process any land use applications for mini self-storage facilities. The study
period will last no longer than one (1) year from the effective date of this Ordinance,
unless further extended by the City in accordance with Minnesota Statutes 462.355,
Subd. 4.
Section 4. Effective Date: This Ordinance is effective upon publication of the
Ordinance in accordance with the City Charter.

AGENDA ITEM 6B
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Diane Hankee, City Engineer
MEETING DATE: September 13,2021
TOPIC: Resolution No. 21-97, Accepting Quotes and Awarding a
Construction Contract, 2021 Water Service Condition Review
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting authorization to accept quotes and award the construction contract for the
2021 Water Service Condition Review.
BACKGROUND
In preparation for the City's annual mill and overlay road improvement project, a review and
maintenance of the water system is performed on streets where public utilities exist. In the past
several years, more water service saddles needed to be replaced than initially anticipated. Due
to the similar age of the infrastructure within the proposed 2022 street project, staff is proposing
to investigate the condition and type of the water services. This will allow staff to properly plan
for water service repair quantities and determine the type of pavement restoration to be used for
the 2022 project.
The 2021 Water Service Condition Review includes replacing eight(8) service saddles on
Hawthorn Road,West Shadow Lake Drive(south of Birch Street), River Birch Place, and
Ironwood Circle. Public Works staff and engineering staff reviewed record drawings and
locations of services to determine which would be best to replace as part of this project. The
selected services were chosen to minimize impacts to driveways and concrete curb and gutter. A
map of selected services is attached.
Quotes for the project were received in September, 2021 as follows:

AGENDA ITEM 6C
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala
MEETING DATE: September 13, 2021
TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 21-98 Approving Participation in the
Local Housing Incentives Account Program under the
Metropolitan Livable Communities Act
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting City Council consideration to participate in the Livable Communities Act
Local Housing Incentives Account Program.
BACKGROUND
The Livable Communities Act(LCA)was adopted by the Minnesota Legislature in 1995. The
Metropolitan Council administers the Livable Communities program. The LCA provides
funding for communities to invest in local economic revitalization, work force housing
initiatives, and development or redevelopment that connects different land uses and
transportation. The program is a voluntary, incentive-based approach to help communities
grow and redevelop, and to address the region's affordable and lifecycle housing needs.
The City has participated in this program since 1996 and has benefited from four grants totaling
$1,645,000 in funding for past projects. Reenrollment is now necessary for participation in the
program from 2021 through 2030. Participation has three primary requirements:
1. Establish a Housing Action Plan
2. Spend an affordable and life-cycle housing opportunity amount(ALHOA)
3. Adopt Affordable and life-cycle housing goals
Additionally, the community must adopt its 2040 Comprehensive Plan Update to participate.
The Metropolitan Council authorized the City to put the plan into effect in October of 2020.
The plan was accepted by the Metropolitan Council in November of 2020.
Housing Action Plan
The City's housing element of the 2040 Plan serves as the Housing Action Plan for purposes of
the LCA participation.
Spend ALOHA Amount
The City's ALHOA for 2021 is $75,979. This is the amount of your City budget that must be
spent on affordable or life-cycle housing opportunities to participate in the LCA programs. At
least 85% (64,582) must be spent on activities that help to create, sustain, preserve, or advance
affordable and/or life-cycle housing opportunities. Examples include direct housing expenses,
debt service on affordable housing projects, and staff time administering programs that create
affordable housing. The City has previously met this requirement through Tax Increment
Financing payments for the Willow Ponds Senior rentals and the Legacy at Woods Edge
projects. TIF currently proposed for the Lyngblomsten project would be an eligible
expenditure.
Adopt Affordable and Life Cycle Housing Goals
The 2040 Comprehensive Plan has land guided at densities that can accommodate our
affordable housing need allocation of 515 units between 2021 and 2030. The forecasted
growth between 2020 and 2030 is 1,700 new households. The affordable allocation amounts to
approximately 30% of new household growth. As shown in Table 4-10 of the 2040
Comprehensive Plan, approximately 50% of the City's existing households units were
affordable (2017).

The LCA program establishes a goal range of 283 —515 for affordable units and a goal of 790
for Life-cycle units.
Affordable is defined as housing that is affordable to low and moderate income families
making no more than 80% of the area median income (AMI). In 2020, the area median income
(AMI) for a household of four is $103,400. An affordable home price for a family of four with
a household income of 80% AMI ($78,500) is $293,500. Examples of both rental costs and
home price at various income levels are attached.
"Lifecycle"refers to housing, other than single family detached, which meets the needs of the
community in all age ranges. This can include twin homes, townhomes, or multi-family for
example.
EDAC reviewed the program at their October 1, 2020 regular meeting and recommended the
City pursue reenrollment. The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed the program at their
October 14, 2020 regular meeting and recommended approval.
As noted the program is voluntary. Failure to meet goals and spending requirements will only
result in being ineligible for grant opportunities.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 21-98.

For owner-occupied housing,the income limit includes principal,interest,property taxes and home insurance.
Assumptions include:

00 Interest rate of 3.000%*
00 A 29%housing debt-to-household income ratio
w A 3.5%down payment

2021 Home Ownership
Applying an interest rate of 3.000%on a 30-year fixed-rate home loan for 2021 and other standard mortgage
assumptions listed above to the 80%of AMI amount for a family of four($79,900),yields an affordable purchase
price of$316,000.With ongoing increases in HUD income limits and the recent decline in mortgage interest rates,
the affordable purchase price has increased from the 2020 limit of$213,500 and the 2019 limit of$254,500.
*This is the interest rate offered in April 2021 by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency to first-time
homebuyers with no origination fee.In previous years,this number was raised slightly to reflect likely increases in
interest rates over the course of the year. This year,in a time of uncertain economic recovery,we have chosen to
make no modifications to the interest rate currently offered.
