1. Update on Lino Lakes Activity Center Branding – Regular Agenda Item 5A 16
– Consultants Marc Morgan, Managing Partner of GameDay Sports, and Ryan Delwiche, 17
WSB & Associates, presented four suggestions for branding/logo. Mr. Morgan reviewed 18
discussions to this point and the basis for the proposed branding (blue heron background). 19
20
Logo concepts were presented (slides shown). One logo/brand was recommended and 21
Councilmember Lyden expressed support. The consultants explained uses of a logo and 22
possibilities for a color scheme. 23
24
Councilmember Ruhland asked why the words “Activity Center” are recommended on 25
the logo; other name connections were discussed. Mr. Morgan explained the 26
community connection they are trying to create. The name “Community Center” feels 27
older to him. Councilmember Ruhland noted that it’s important that people understand 28
what the facility offers. 29
30
Councilmember Stoesz asked several questions about the logo specifics. He expressed 31
support for the recommendation. 32
33
Councilmember Cavegn noted that he likes the logo. However, he did do some 34
homework (searched on line) regarding the “rookery” name and got some definitions that 35
he feels are not what the City would want for identification. Mr. Morgan suggested that 36
they haven’t heard the negative definitions mentioned. Mr. Delwiche suggested that 37
there are ways to make sure the rookery facility website shows up first on searches; 38
Councilmember Cavegn noted that is an expensive proposition. The consultants 39
defended the name based on the unique community connection that it makes; people in 40
the community know about the herons. 41
42
Mayor Rafferty noted that there is definitely a story behind the name and that’s a story 43
that needs to be told. 44
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION

45
Councilmember Lyden said he had reservations about the name but when he learned 46
about the focus to the community and the narrower audience, he sees it would work. Mr. 47
Morgan remarked that it’s an opportunity to educate. 48
49
Mayor Rafferty said he can see the logo working well, understanding that there will be 50
people who like or dislike it throughout the process. 51
52
Director DeGardner remarked that if other definitions aren’t lost in the campaign to 53
educate about this facility, then the City isn’t doing the job. Staff is looking for 54
something unique but if the council wants “Lino Lakes Activity Center” that is fine 55
because staff needs to move ahead with the process. 56
57
Councilmember Stoesz asked for clarification of including the word “the” as that could 58
cause confusion when searching or identifying the facility. The consultants said they 59
support the word “the” as it denotes it as a place. 60
61
Mayor Rafferty spoke in favor of “The Rookery” name. He can envision the name in 62
lights and that it would be quite nice. 63
64
There is an item on the agenda for action related to this subject. Councilmember Lyden 65
remarked that it would be great if everyone on the council supports moving forward. 66
67
Based on a council approval, staff would move forward in development of the logo and 68
bring forward more information on logo/branding and other steps moving toward 69
opening. 70
2. Double Garage Interpretation – City Planner Larsen explained that the council 71
requested a discussion of this subject. Ms. Larsen reviewed the history of a building 72
request involving a double garage door. A building permit was denied in that case 73
because it didn’t meet staff’s interpretation of a “double garage”. City code requires a 74
double garage and includes a definition of a garage but no definition of double garage. 75
She explained staff’s developed definition (that would allow for two cars to enter and 76
exit). Staff is interested in understanding the council’s definition. A definition would, of 77
course, apply to all properties in the city and not just the property that brings this question 78
forward. Questions to the council are outlined in the staff report. 79
80
Councilmember Cavegn remarked that, if the council wishes, adding language defining a 81
double garage would be appropriate. However the situation that brings this up should be 82
judged on current language, not what the language becomes. 83
84
Councilmember Lyden said he understands the discussion about impact on 85
neighborhoods. This location is an older neighborhood. The ten foot door doesn’t 86
bother him in this location. He is open to allowing people to use their garage property the 87
way they see fit. 88

Resolution No. 21-139, Approving Summary Publication of Ordinance – Finance Director Lynch 41
reported that the City approves a fee schedule annually. The schedule presented has been reviewed by 42
staff and recommended changes are noted in the ordinance. The council approved the first reading of 43
the Fee Schedule ordinance on November 8th. Staff is recommending approval of the second reading 44
and adoption of the ordinance establishing fees for 2022. 45
Councilmember Cavegn asked for an explanation of the “batch plant” permit. Community 46
Development Director Grochala noted a couple locations in the City – they are basically industrial 47
locations where they make batches of product, such as asphalt. 48
Mayor Rafferty noted the escrow deposit for an interim use. That fee went from $1,000 to $7,500. 49
Community Development Director noted that the change brings that process into the same fee 50
structure as for regular projects. 51
Councilmember Lyden asked about the fees for building permits. Is there a case where an 52
improvement would actually cost less than the permit? Community Development Director Grochala 53
suggested that he couldn’t think of a case where that would occur; there is a minimum for the 54
requirement of a permit. 55
Councilmember Stoesz asked if the filing fee is appropriate for related costs to the City. City Clerk 56
Bartell responded that the cost is appropriate considering the process of receiving an Affidavit of 57
Candidacy is an easy one and the current fee amount is common among cities. 58
Councilmember Stoesz moved to waive the full reading of Ordinance No. 08-21 as presented. 59
Councilmember Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote. 60
Councilmember Stoesz moved to approve the 2nd reading and adoption of Ordinance No. 08-21 as 61
presented. Councilmember Cavegn seconded the motion. Motion carried: Yeas, 5; Nays none. 62
Councilmember Stoesz moved to approve Resolution No. 21-139 as presented. Councilmember 63
Ruhland seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote. 64

recommendation to appointment Ms. Christopherson to the vacated position of Accounting Clerk II. 68
Councilmember Lyden moved to approve the appointment of Katie Sue Christopherson to the 69
position of Accounting Clerk II. Councilmember Ruhland seconded the motion. Motion carried on 70
a voice vote. 71

4A) Consider Resolution No. 21-129 Approving State of Minnesota Joint Powers 73
Agreements with the City of Lino Lakes on Behalf of its City Attorney and Police Department 74

powers agreement with the State of Minnesota that authorizes access to certain state criminal justice 76
networks as appropriate and as needed to provide services. 77
Councilmember Ruhland moved to approve Resolution No. 21-129 as presented. Councilmember 78

PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT REPORT 80
5A) Consider Resolution No. 21-142, Approving the Name and Logo of The Rookery 81
Activity Center – Public Services Director DeGardner reviewed his written report. He showed the 82
proposed logo/brand for the rec center. The council had reviewed the logo proposal at the pre-council 83
work session and approved consideration. Mr. DeGardner reviewed some renderings of the logo as a 84
sign on the facility and on merchandize. 85
Councilmember Ruhland moved to approve Resolution No. 21-142 as presented. Councilmember 86
Lyden seconded the motion. 87
Councilmember Cavegn said he loves the logo but he doesn’t approve of the name “The Rookery”, 88
based on definitions of that word that don’t carry the identity he’d like to promote. 89
Mayor Rafferty remarked that this project, opening the facility, is moving forward as it should 90
Motion carried on a voice vote (Councilmember Cavegn voted no). 91
5B) Consider Resolution No. 21-143, Approving Contract with Endurance Fitness – Public 92
Services Director DeGardner reviewed his written staff report. He noted steps that have brought the 93
council to this point in implementing the rec center hybrid concept that came forward in the feasiblity 94
report. Endurance Fitness is now ready to enter a contract to utilize a portion of The Rookery Activity 95
Center. They will be a great partner. 96
The owner of Endurance Fitness explained that he and his wife feel this is a great opportunity to move 97
into the recreation center facility. He explained how they came to be in their current location (the 98
YMCA turned away from the programming they needed). 99
Mayor Rafferty remarked that the City is looking forward to the partnership; they want success for the 100
business and the members they serve. 101
Administrator Cotton explained that staff will work hard to prepare the fitness space to allow them to 102
move in around February. 103
Councilmember Cavegn noted that he visited the current facility and was impressed with the 104
equipment and programming. 105

completed. The change order is actually a credit. 112
Mayor Rafferty noted that the project went great and the product is wonderful. Even the tower 113
painting has garnered state recognition. 114

NEW BUSINESS 120
8A) Definition of Double Garage – Community Development Director Grochala explained that 121
staff discussed this matter at the council work session. Currently staff’s interpretation is that two 122
cars must be able to enter the garage (independently). The work session direction indicates a 123
different interpretation by the council. To make the council’s direction official, a motion is 124
recommended. 125
Councilmember Cavegn moved to approve the interpretation of a double garage as one with a door 126
that is wide enough to accommodate ingress and egress of a single vehicle. Councilmember Lyden 127
seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote. 128

better fit for the City’s brand and identity. Samples of CivicPlus guided websites were shown. Ms. 28
Schmidt pointed out that CivicPlus can provide better search options and noted that search is a widely 29
utilized element of the website. Ms. Turner added that CivicPlus also better allows for future 30
updating. She presented a slide indicating how the City of Blaine utilizes CivicPlus for their 31
recreation and other programs on a very user friendly platform. 32
Ms. Turner reviewed other features and benefits of CivicPlus: 33
-Cohesive user experience and efficiency for staff;34
- Custom designed site;35
- Email connection with residents (resident opt in);36
-Recreation center subsite;37
-Technical on-line support;38
- Pricing (eligible for ARPA Funding).39
Adminstrator Cotton added that the recreation center was a catalyst for change but it’s a good time to 40
enhance the website overall; this would be a technology improvement that will grow. 41

Councilmember Cavegn agreed that the current website is antiquated. He received information on 42
the cost of the current platform ($1,500 per year). He also asked about integration of current 43
programs and Ms. Turner explained how the financial system could fit in. 44
Director DeGardner added that CivicPlus offers many modules for services (HR, Elections e.g.). 45
The current request is for two. 46
Councilmember Cavegn noted the redesign option every four years and he wonders if CivicPlus will 47
allow intermittent change needs. Ms. Turner responded that the company is good at locking in brand 48
identity and there are many customizable opportunities; the City will have the opportunity to liven it 49
up. 50
The council heard about implementation, driven by the planned opening of the recreation center on 51
April 1. 52
Councilmember Lyden said he recognizes that this is current technology and the website is very 53
important for citizens. He understands the impact and savings part. He is a bit of a technology 54
dinosaur so he wonders how usable this would be for him. Staff responded that the website should 55
be usable on a basic level (not using an app for instance) as well. 56
Councilmember Lyden asked staff to explore the possibility of utilizing some funding from the 57
communications fund. 58
Councilmember Lyden moved to approve Resolution No. 21-140 as presented. Councilmember 59

1. 2022 Budget – Mayor Rafferty noted that staff has done a good job to this point, 14
bringing in a lower than last year 40.107 tax rate. 15
16
Ms. Lynch noted the scheduled public hearing preceding council consideration of passing 17
the 2022 budget on December 13, 2021 during the regular scheduled council meeting. 18
The staff report outlines where the council started and has landed at this point. It also 19
details changes that were made to the budget; biggest factor being due to personnel and 20
insurance assumptions which are now finalized. She reviewed the changes noted in the 21
report. She reviewed the tax capacity numbers that bring the tax rate where it is proposed 22
tonight. Ms. Lynch also pointed out the total levy and her research of other cities 23
indicating that the City is slightly below the average. Staff is prepared to discuss the 24
budget. 25
26
Mayor Rafferty noted the rec center budget and how that appears in the 2022 budget. 27
Ms. Lynch noted the levy is related to the bonds for the facility. The levy disappears in 28
2026 at which time those funds would shift to operating if directed by the council. 29
30
Mayor Rafferty recalled recent work (and a study) on water mains. He is looking for a 31
line item he recalls being under the Water budget for certain flushing activities. Mr. 32
DeGardner said the request was a comprehensive analysis of the entire water system to 33
assist with identifying problems areas and other information; it would be a water flow 34
analysis and other data. Staff is comfortable waiting for a future year discussion. Mayor 35
Rafferty asked if this would help with water conservation and Mr. DeGardner explained 36
what he sees as the goal of a study and that he would see it fitting in further down the 37
line. 38
39
Mayor Rafferty noted Page 10, contractual services for Alexandra House ($500). He has 40
been clear that he supports the cause of their services but he doesn’t feel it belongs in the 41
City budget. Councilmember Stoesz expressed support for the Mayor’s statement. 42
Councilmember Lyden said he supports including the funds in the budget. 43
Councilmember Ruhland said he understands the need and would donate to the 44

organization as an individual but he cannot support taxpayer dollars. Councilmember 45
Cavegn said he supports funds staying in the budget. Councilmember Lyden asked 46
Public Safety Director Swenson to comment on the services provided to the City. 47
Director Swenson explained the role of Alexandra House in the county and more 48
specifically in this City. The council had received a presentation from the executive 49
director at a recent work session. They are a good partner mainly in the area of domestic 50
violence, a situation that does occur in this community. Councilmember Cavegn asked 51
if they are called to assist in domestic violence situations and Director Swenson said it is 52
protocol that officers bring in Alexandra House for their assistance. Councilmember 53
Cavegn asked, if Alexandra House were not providing that service, how would the 54
service be provided in Lino Lakes? Director Swenson said Alexandra House is the 55
provider to this community and while other areas have other options, another would have 56
to be identified for the City. Councilmember Cavegn asked the Finance Director the 57
impact (to a taxpayer in the City) of this funding. It was estimated at about $.50 per 58
resident. Councilmember Lyden noted that he sees this as a very important service. 59
Councilmember Ruhland said he is trying to represent the majority of taxpayers in the 60
City as well as wondering what other service that would be just as important. 61
Councilmember Cavegn noted with that same theory, he would have a hard time 62
supporting funding for Blue Heron Days. Mayor Rafferty remarked that the item will be 63
removed from the budget. 64
65
Mayor Rafferty noted that the Park Board is requesting additional funding to the Parks 66
and Trails funds. There has also been discussion about replacement of vehicles within 67
the Public Safety Department. 68
69
On the vehicle question, the Public Safety Department is requesting three new vehicles. 70
One current vehicle would be rotated to the fire division. The mayor said one vehicle that 71
would be changed out has 15,000 miles on it and that would replace a fire department 72
vehicle with 6,000+. The mayor has asked what it would take to keep that vehicle in 73
place. The mayor also mentioned the option to replace Ford Explorer vehicles with a 74
more expensive Chevrolet Tahoe and possible cost savings there. He would propose 75
taking the savings of $17,000 and moving it to the parks budget. Councilmember 76
Cavegn noted the vehicle discussion and that he is in favor of the purchasing the Tahoe. 77
Councilmember Lyden remarked that the value includes the value when it is sold but the 78
mayor remarked that isn’t the discussion now. Councilmember Ruhland noted that 79
models have changed since the discussion has commenced; he sees that it would be a 80
wash if the vehicles don’t increase in value any differently, i.e. one vehicle would gain 81
value in a greater fashion. Councilmember Stoesz remarked that Explorer’s have worked 82
well in the past so he would support purchasing them. Mayor Rafferty argued for the 83
$17,000 that could be used in another way. Councilmember Lyden noted that the 84
Explorer vehicle has inherent problems that cause mechanical repair cost. When asked 85
to comment, Director Swenson said he has provided information and a recommendation 86
and would welcome a council direction at this point. 87
88
Mayor Rafferty spoke in favor of reallocating savings (by purchase of Explorer instead of 89

Tahoe) to the parks and trails fund, providing funding in an area where it’s been 90
requested by the Park Board. Councilmember Ruhland asked that the matter be tabled 91
and the council concurred. 92
93
Mayor Rafferty asked if the council supports not replacing auto unit 617. Director 94
Swenson asked if the discussion is that the unit would not be replaced and the City would 95
still purchase three additional vehicles; the mayor concurred. It was clarified that that 96
three vehicles would come in and three would go out of the fleet. Director Swenson 97
added that the council direction of the past has been to not move new vehicles into the 98
fire division where they receive less use. Mayor Rafferty remarked that in this case 99
keeping the car in the police division for another year would probably bring the mileage 100
up to about 40,000 and that to him is a better fit for a fire division vehicle. 101
102
The budget discussion will continue at the next work session. 103
104
Mayor Rafferty asked if the purchase of certain vehicles (box loader was mentioned) is 105
authorized. A fleet cat, 350 dump and water and sewer vehicle were mentioned. Ms. 106
Lynch noted the new storm fund and the vehicle that is being purchased for that position. 107
The council concurred with those purchases. 108
109
Mayor Rafferty noted general fund surpluses that occur most years. Looking forward to 110
coming surpluses (possible 2023), he would like the council to consider future use. He’d 111
like to consider 50% to capital equipment, 25% parks and trail and 25% to gaps, etc. at 112
council discretion. Councilmember Lyden suggested that would be a good discussion at 113
a strategic planning session. Director Lynch remarked that it could be put into a formal 114
policy as some other cities do in regard to their reserve funds. Councilmember Ruhland 115
suggested he likes the freedom a yearly consideration offers to the council. 116
117
Councilmember Stoesz asked how The Rookery will show up in the 2023 budget. Ms. 118
Lynch suggested that she expects that function would best be managed by a revenue 119
enterprise fund. 120
121
Ms. Lynch clarified that the council tabled the discussion of the type vehicle (Tahoe or 122
Explorer) and the rotation of vehicle #317 to the fire division. They will be discussed at 123
the December 6th work session. It is understood that Alexandra House will be removed 124
from the final consideration budget. 125
The meeting was adjourned at 8:15 p.m. 126

AGENDA ITEM 1F
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Hannah Lynch , Finance Director
MEETING DATE: December 13, 2021
TOPIC: Accepting the Redistribution of Unrequested American Rescue
Plan Act Funds
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Local governments were required to request American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds by
October 11, 2021. After the deadline passed, the state of Minnesota redistributed remaining
funds amongst eligible local governments who requested ARPA funds. The City of Lino Lakes
was allocated an additional $76,647.12 in the redistribution. Half was distributed on November
22, 2021 and the remaining balance will follow in 2022 unless guidance changes.
BACKGROUND
The City of Lino Lakes received $1,170,283.35 in July and a supplemental distribution of
$38,323.56 in November. With the second payment anticipated in the Summer of 2022, the
City of Lino Lakes total ARPA allocation is expected to be $2,417,213.82.
The League of Minnesota Cities developed a model resolution to accept ARPA funds. There is
not a specific requirement in the law that cities pass a resolution but it is a formal way to
acknowledge that the city will be receiving the funds and grants staff the authority to take the
necessary steps once the process is open through Minnesota Management and Budget.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 21-144.
ATTACHMENTS
Resolution 21-144
CITY OF LINO LAKES
RESOLUTION NO. 21-144
A RESOLUTION TO ACCEPT THE REDISTRIBUTION OF
UNREQUESTED CORONAVIRUS LOCAL FISCAL RECOVERY FUND
ESTABLISHED UNDER THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT
WHEREAS, Congress adopted the American Rescue Plan Act in March 2021 (“ARPA”) which
included $65 billion in recovery funds for cities across the country.
WHEREAS, ARPA funds are intended to provide support to state, local, and tribal governments
in responding to the impact of COVID-19 and in their efforts to contain COVID-19 in their

States and territories which will distribute the funds to nonentitlement units of local government
(NEUs).
WHEREAS, NEUs generally have populations below 50,000.
WHEREAS, The ARPA requires that States and territories allocate funding to NEUs in an
amount that bears the same proportion as the population of the NEU bears to the total population
of all NEUs in the State or territory.
WHEREAS, after the deadline of October 11, 2021, passed for NEUs to request ARPA funds,
nearly $12 million of the $377 million available to Minnesota’s NEUs remained unrequested.
WHEREAS, as allowed by the U.S. Treasury, the State of Minnesota has redistributed these
remaining funds amongst eligible local governments who requested ARPA funds.
WHEREAS, the redistribution amount is approximately $3.47 per capita, capped at 75% of the
most recent budget adopted as of January 27, 2020.
WHEREAS, $76,647.12 has been allocated to the City of Lino Lakes (“City”) pursuant to the
ARPA (Redistribution).
WHEREAS, the Redistribution will be distributed in two tranches with half received in 2021
and the second half in 2022.
WHEREAS, the United States Department of Treasury has adopted guidance regarding the use
of ARPA funds.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

1. Recreation Center Update – Public Services Director DeGardner reviewed his 10
written report that included information on the following: 11
- Branding/Marketing concepts; 12
- Proposed membership rates; 13
- Fitness programming; 14
- Aquatics programming; 15
- Ongoing evaluation of existing building. 16
17
Mr. DeGardner also reviewed proposed next steps toward the goal of reopening the 18
center, including staffing needs and additions to City staff. 19
20
Marc Morgan, GameDay Sports, and Ryan DelWiche of WSB & Associates were present 21
to discuss development of marketing plans; both reviewed their background. There has 22
been much research and brainstorming within the marketing team; they are looking at the 23
many benefits the center could bring to the area. The group is announcing a theme that 24
they feel represents the uniqueness of the Lino Lakes’ community and one that can grow 25
into the future – “The Rookery”. The connection is the blue heron community which is 26
unique to this city. They have discussed who they are trying to reach now and in the 27
future and came to believe a key is to reach families, along with seniors and others; that 28
goals aligns with the idea of a rookery that includes young and old. There is also an 29
alignment with the water/land nature of the blue herons – the center offers both aquatic 30
and non-aquatic activities. They also suggested the possibility of membership fees tied 31
to a contribution back to the heron rookery. They also discussed the industrial area 32
adjacent to the interstate and how to tie that into plans; the industrial site (and future 33
residential) could utilize the facility. They would expect that activity rooms within the 34
facility could be named within the rookery theme (and decorating of the facility as well). 35
Other themes they discussed were “The Nest” or “The Link”; they landed on The 36
Rookery as best. 37
38
Mayor Rafferty remarked that he likes the direction. 39
40
Councilmember Lyden explained his perspective. He was hoping for a WOW moment. 41
What he sees in the name is a good intellectual approach but moving toward the feeling 42

end of things, he’s not getting the connection. Mr. Morgan said he could see more 43
connection as they work toward logos and colors. 44
45
Councilmember Stoesz asked if there has been any investigation of the name and possible 46
other meanings. Mr. Morgan said they have done a cursory search. 47
48
Councilmember Ruhland remarked that in his real estate background, he hasn’t typically 49
heard any reference to the rookery in connection with this area. 50
51
Councilmember Cavegn noted his concern that people may not make the connection with 52
the name easily. Mr. Morgan suggested that they are going for the super unique and that 53
means that people have to become familiar with it but it is special enough to merit that; 54
also he suggested that curiosity about the name could be a good thing. 55
56
Mr. Morgan and Mr. DelWiche added that the focus has really been toward the facility 57
serving this community and they feel the community generally has familiarity with the 58
herons. If the goal is to attract outside the community, then it’s a different approach. 59
60
Director DeGardner remarked that he believes that a unique name should be a goal. It’s 61
going to be more defined through website, colors and logos. The group bringing this 62
together feels The Rookery brings the best options for the future. 63
64
Councilmember Ruhland said he likes the name more as he thinks about it. He can see 65
how it can be a unique theme; it ties into the City’s logo as well. 66
67
Councilmember Cavegn added that he sees the benefit of bringing in people from other 68
nearby communities. 69
70
Councilmember Stoesz asked if the name is copyrighted at all or should it be on the 71
City’s behalf. Marketing staff said they would check further based on direction to 72
continue with it. 73
74
Mayor Rafferty remarked that he isn’t disappointed with the work presented but he is 75
wondering if it wouldn’t be appropriate to hear other options at this point. He also asked 76
if there are next step marketing concepts to discuss. 77
78
Director DeGardner remarked that staff has worked hard toward the possibility of 79
opening the center April 1, 2022, if directed by the council. There is timing involved in 80
that goal and based on the strong recommendation of the group bringing this forward, 81
they didn’t feel options were warranted. The mayor thanked staff for that explanation. 82
83
There was general council concurrence to move forward. The council will be receiving 84
more options on logos, color palates, etc. 85

After the marketing consultant presentation, Director DeGardner reviewed information on 87
a proposed membership rate structure. Rates are reduced from current market rates. 88
Councilmember Lyden remarked that the rates look attractive; he wonders if there could 89
be a virtual membership included. Councilmember Stoesz suggested offering a break for 90
auto payment. Councilmember Ruhland commented that with a school partner element, 91
perhaps think about cameras where parents could watch kids’ events; he also wonders 92
about the possibility of twenty-four hour fitness availability. Councilmember Cavegn 93
asked about fees that are more ala carte to allow people to pay for their use. 94
Councilmember Lyden suggested some type of code of conduct that keeps the 95
environment appropriate; Mr. DeGardner noted that the current model requires 96
supervision under 14 years of age. Mr. DeGardner noted that they also plan for a senior 97
center component in the future. 98
99
Director DeGardner touched on plans to partner with a fitness provider (for 100
programming) for five years. They continue to work on a partnership with Centennial 101
School District on an aquatics program. Staff continues to evaluate the condition of the 102
facility as well. Staff is requesting support to proceed with work to open the recreation 103
on a target date of April 1. He noted the staff hiring and organizational changes that 104
would be involved. 105
106
Councilmember Cavegn said he favors opening the facility but has concern about the 107
large financial commitment without more information (on partners for instance). 108
109
Councilmember Ruhland remarked that he heard about the financials from ISG 110
consultants and understands the needs at the onset of the project. 111
112
Administrator Cotton added, regarding the fitness provider, there is a term sheet in place 113
and staff expects to be coming to the council very soon with a memorandum of 114
understanding and details. Staff is working off the analysis and trying to move to what is 115
needed to meet an opening goal. 116
117
Councilmember Cavegn asked about partners for aquatics and recreation. Director 118
DeGardner remarked that those are actually the best revenue producers so the City may be 119
best off keeping them. Councilmember Cavegn remarked that the hybrid plan called for 120
partnerships. Administrator Cotton added running the recreation center was always 121
going to be a City responsibility; partners were planned only for aquatics and fitness. Mr. 122
DeGardner noted that the Centennial aquatics program is actually smaller than 123
anticipated. 124
125
Councilmember Ruhland remarked that the council must have some trust in staff’s work 126
and staff is obviously working very diligently on the project. 127
128
Director DeGardner added that, if the project goes forward, staff is recommending that 129
the council receive updates (and potential requests for action) each meeting (three times 130
per month). 131

132
Councilmember Lyden thanked staff for making a commitment to an opening date and 133
noted that the selection of the right facility director is crucial. He supports moving 134
forward. 135
136
Councilmember Stoesz said he is one hundred percent in favor of moving forward. It’s 137
an opportunity to have the building in place and offer the services; it would cost more to 138
start from the ground up. 139
140
Mr. DeGardner added that another opportunity is the availability of ARP (American 141
Rescue Plan) funds. He remarked that he hopes each councilmember will approach him 142
for additional details to ensure that they are completely comfortable. 143
2. Main & Lake Drive Redevelopment – Community Development Director 144
Grochala introduced Greg Anderson (Anderson Companies). Staff has had ongoing 145
conversations with the Carpenter family and the City has already bought their property at 146
77th; the family also own property at Lake and Main. They are interested in selling and 147
are working with the City on what is allowed/planned; it is guided for multi-148
family/commercial. Another land owner in the area is interested in joining on a 149
development. Staff has subsequently talked with the Anderson Companies about their 150
interest in developing; they want to talk about mutual goals and possible scope. 151
152
Greg Anderson of Anderson Companies, Rod Bader of Bader Development and Mike 153
Waldo of Ron Clark Construction and Design, noted their respective backgrounds and 154
experience in development. Mr. Anderson noted his discussions with property owners 155
and his vision of developing housing and medical. They are interested in hearing the 156
council’s view especially in the area of density. They would like to learn about the 157
council’s goals for the property. 158
Councilmember Lyden asked what the developer sees as a breakdown of use. Mr. 159
Anderson mentioned 300+ housing units (market rate and senior), 20,000-30,000 sf 160
commercial space (medical?) and a home for the current Tavern on Main. 161
The Mayor asked about the designation of the area as “signature gateway” even though 162
it’s not right at the border of the City. Staff explained other gateways that aren’t 163
necessarily at the border. 164
Councilmember Cavegn remarked that, based on the location, he’s favoring what he is 165
hearing. He noted that traffic is already a concern and would be more so with housing 166
development. The developer remarked that there would be growth in traffic control 167
points. 168
Councilmember Stoesz remarked that his goal for the city is to bring in jobs and a 169
medical element would be a good start. A developer remarked that there are 26,000 jobs 170
in senior care that are not filled just in this state and senior care facilities favor adjacent 171
housing to attract workers. 172

Councilmember Ruhland asked about components envisioned and the developer 173
explained that they see the initial stage of about 100+ market rate homes. They are 174
looking at four stories for housing. They are looking forward as they consider possible 175
residents – younger people who want certain amenities – empty nesters who are renting 176
by choice – 30 somethings who come from outstate – and younger people who wish to 177
come back to the community where they grew up. The property is envisioned as 178
intergenerational. The developers also noted that there could be soil challenges where 179
the car lot has existed for many years; fortunately they have experience with super fund 180
sites. 181
Councilmember Lyden asked about having a four story building and how that can be 182
buffered from neighbors. Developer noted that the site provides for good buffering in 183
space and wooded area. 184
Councilmember Stoesz remarked that he’s seen some developments with tunnels to allow 185
access to multiple buildings. The developer noted the walkability of the area and the 186
positive culture that getting out in the neighborhood provides. 187
The developers explained the concept further. They added that they would envision 188
buildings with no more than 160 units. The mayor asked about the combination of 189
residential and retail on the bottom; the developers noted situations where that has not 190
been successful. 191
Councilmember Cavegn asked for public safety comments. Public Safety Director 192
Swenson said he expects there will be a review period for his department with more 193
details. Director Swenson added that there has been good experience with good 194
management so he knows that is key. 195
Community Development Director Grochala spoke on the issue of available utilities, 196
noting that the site has access to trunk lines for water and sewer. He also discussed 197
comprehensive plan guidance in the area of density; it does allow options for the council 198
to consider increases. Mr. Grochala remarked that staff wanted the council to hear about 199
this concept early rather than later; he is hoping to set up a joint meeting of the council 200
and advisory boards to hear about this proposal. 201
Councilmember Lyden remarked that the City is excited about the 49/J development and 202
that is a community gateway project. He hopes this can be the same; he wonders about 203
having a sign or something significant to indicate the gateway. 204
The council concurred with the concept of a joint meeting to review information on this 205
redevelopment idea. 206

224
Councilmember Lyden asked if future upgrades to the interstate could impact this 225
development. Ms. Larsen explained there shouldn’t be any impact due to adequate right 226
of way in place. 227
Mayor Rafferty remarked that this is an extreme change from a previous proposal and he 228
sees an opportunity for some fine homes there. 229
The council concurred that the matter would move to the council agenda. 230
4. Belland Farms-Associate Eye Care Partners Preliminary Plat & Site Plan 231
Review – City Planner Larsen reviewed a PowerPoint presentation that included 232
information on the following: 233
234
- Land use application by Rehbein Properties for two commercial lots; 235
- Aerial site map and site plan map; 236

5. Mn/DNR Water Appropriation Permit – Residential Irrigation Ban – 253
Community Development Director Grochala recalled information, as included in his staff 254
report, on certain legal actions relating to water use, levels, White Bear Lake and 255
surrounding communities. Regulations of the Minnesota Department of Natural 256
Resources (DNR) are part of the consideration. There was an appeal process undertaken 257
regarding certain orders and, after further court consideration, some requirements were 258
confirmed; an appeal process continues. Director Grochala noted that the City recently 259
received notification that the lake has fallen below the designated mark for instituting 260
certain restrictions/actions. The City has been asked to comply voluntarily and 261
recognizing the time of the year (end of irrigation season), staff feels the City is in good 262
shape in complying. The DNR will be attending a future work session to discuss the 263
matter. He added that there are also implications on new wells. 264
6. Rice Creek Watershed District Appointment – City Administrator Cotton 265
reviewed her written staff report. Staff is seeking council direction on this appointment 266
process. The City and council have received notice of vacancy of a manager position. 267
Individuals can submit their names to Anoka County for consideration. Scott Robinson, 268
Lino Lakes resident, has applied. Ms. Cotton reviewed the statutory process guiding 269
appointments. Some other cities will be nominating individuals and, considering the 270
process, she is recommending that the council approval a resolution joining in submitting 271
a list of nominees, helping to ensure that the City has representative on the board. 272
273
Councilmember Stoesz asked if there is compensation for these positions; Administrator 274
Cotton will provide that information. Councilmember Stoesz asked if it would be 275
appropriate to interview an applicant. Ms. Cotton suggested that the council has not done 276
so in the past and ultimately the appointing authority belongs with the Anoka County 277
Board. 278
279
Mayor Rafferty supported staff’s recommendation with the understanding that the name 280
of Scott Robinson will be included. The council will consider the resolution at the 281
regular meeting. 282
7. 2022 Police Division Staffing – Public Safety Director Swenson explained that 283
there is information he’d like the council to have as well as make a request. There would 284
be a change in the budget related to his recommendation but no change to the preliminary 285
budget amount. 286
287
Director Swenson noted that the police division has been facing vacancies and has been 288
in a continual hiring cycle. The department is authorized at 28 sworn personnel and is 289
currently at 26. One sergeant is currently on light duty, one out on FMLA and three 290
officers are currently in the training program (finishing in December, January and spring). 291
He is proposing to delay the hiring of the 28th officer until July 2022 and using those 292
funds to hire a third Community Service Officer (CSO) and using savings to bring on a 293
retired officer part time to work on background checks. He explained that the CSO 294
program has been a good feeder program to hiring officers but there is some difficulty in 295
aligning openings. Now the department has identified two good candidates for one CSO 296
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
8
opening and they have a strong candidate for police officer currently as CSO. On the 297
possibility of contracting for a background worker, the work needed would be specific to 298
police and fire candidates. He noted the challenge the department has faced in having 299
candidates hire onto other departments mainly because other background processes are 300
faster. The contract for services would pay $35 per hour with no benefits. 301
302
Director Swenson reviewed his request to delay the hiring of the 28th police officer, 303
authorize a third CSO position and allow contracting for background services. 304
305
Mayor Rafferty asked for more information on the contracted position; he asked how 306
much time usually goes into a background check. Director Swenson said the cost varies 307
but typically costs $1,000 to $2,000 per candidate; an investigation of outsourcing 308
indicated a bottom cost of $3,000 per background. Councilmember Cavegn asked if this 309
would be an intermittent position and Director Swenson said yes, it would be as needed. 310
311
The council concurred with the plan as presented. 312
8. Q3 2021 Public Safety Update – Director Swenson reviewed the data presented 313
in his written report. Director Swenson concluded with an update on staffing for both 314
police and fire division and review of event participation. 315
9. Council Updates on Boards/Commissions, City Council 316
Councilmember Cavegn reported on recent work at the Joint Law Enforcement Council. 317
They are looking at needs for protective fencing (in case of unrest situations) and the 318
possibility of sharing those resources (joint collaborative purchase). A subcommittee has 319
been formed to discuss further. 320
321
The meeting was adjourned at 9:55 p.m. 322
323
These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting held on 324

The City’s current legal services contract has been in place for three and a half years. 15
The service provider has proposed an increase to hourly rates for the coming three years. 16
Staff is recommending reengaging the current provider. 17

2. Take 5 Express Car Wash & Oil Change PUD Concept Plan – City Planner 21
Larson reviewed a PowerPoint presentation that included information on the following: 22
23
- Information on land use application for car wash facility at 601 Apollo Drive; 24
- Existing site conditions; 25
- Council ability to allow a different use; 26
- Concept plan view and elements; 27
- Exterior view (preliminary); 28
- EDAC comments; do not support changing the land use due to location; 29
- Planning & Zoning; overall the board was supportive of a car wash in the City but 30
not necessarily at this location; the board vote was three for and three against; 31
- Staff comments; what would lie ahead for the project to continue; 32
- Seeking council input. 33
34
Mayor Rafferty noted that he has touched base with the Planning and Zoning Board. He 35
also likes a car wash but not at this location; basically not this product at this location. 36
37
Councilmember Ruhland said he feels similar. He doesn’t feel this is a good spot, 38
especially with the rooftop restaurant developing nearby. 39
40
Councilmember Cavegn concurred; this is the main corner of the City and this wouldn’t 41
be the use he’d like to see. 42

Councilmember Stoesz remarked that he also doesn’t see this type of development 44
working out at this site. 45
46
Councilmember Lyden said he wants more at this location. 47
48
Mayor Rafferty suggested that there are other areas within the City that he thinks would 49
be more appropriate. 50
51
Jerod Hanaman with Driven Brands, Inc. representing applicant Boing US HOLD CO. 52
Inc. addressed the council. He lives in the metro region. He noted brands they develop 53
and that this is a newer business they are rolling out. They do work to make the 54
architecture work in the area. He realizes this lot was planned to be a bank but there has 55
been no interest in bank development. For the developer, they don’t see another area of 56
the City that would work. They are willing to work on the site plan if that would make it 57
more attractive. Mayor Rafferty noted the mostly Texas location of the developments 58
done by this company. Mr. Hanaman concurred that developments are mostly in the 59
south but the company has plans moving ahead in this region also. 60
61
Councilmember Lyden asked about a location behind Casey’s General Store on Lake 62
Drive. Staff suggested the area south of Sheet Metal Workers Credit Union also as an 63
alternative location. 64
65
Councilmember Stoesz remarked that Kohl’s parking lot seems to be oversized and he 66
wonders if that is an area of possible change. Planner Larsen said if Kohl’s were to come 67
forward, that could be discussed. 68
69
Mayor Rafferty remarked that the council has concurred that it doesn’t appear to be the 70
right site Mr. Hanaman said he will check further but he doesn’t believe there is 71
another site in this City that would work for them. 72
73
3. Economic Development Strategic Plan – Community Development Director 74
Grochala noted that staff is working with the Economic Development Advisory 75
Committee (EDAC) on a five year economic development plan. He reviewed the 76
elements recommended in the plan: 77
78
- Develop balance of Woods Edge property; 79
- Business expansion/retention; 80
- Workforce development; County plays a big role so the City will work with them 81
on setting up a mini-plan; 82
- Identify redevelopment areas and make strategic acquisitions; 83
- Continue development of 35E/Main Street corridor; still working with adjacent 84
communities on tech corridor concept; 85
- updating and expanding City marketing materials. 86

Councilmember Lyden asked if staff is also thinking about water treatment facility land 88
needs and Mr. Grochala concurred that is on the radar. Councilmember Lyden asked if 89
the City tracks vacancies and Mr. Grochala said there is some tracking, especially in the 90
industrial area. 91
92
Councilmember Stoesz asked about use of highway signs to bring people into the City, as 93
is done by an adjacent City. Mr. Grochala remarked that the process is handled by 94
MnDOT and comes with some requirements; the City doesn’t control the signs so 95
businesses must seek those signs themselves. 96
97
Councilmember Cavegn asked if the goals come with any definition of success. What is 98
success and how do we get there? Director Grochala said a work plan would follow the 99
council’s approval of the work plan. Staff would work each goal with appropriate steps. 100
He noted accomplishments since the last plan was adopted (2014). 101
102
Councilmember Stoesz suggested adding language supporting the sale of land that is no 103
longer needed. Mr. Grochala explained that there are really only two pieces of land at 104
this time owned by the City and he doesn’t believe they should be sold. 105
106
Councilmember Ruhland asked about opportunities for the tech corridor? Mr. Grochala 107
remarked that there is a website sponsored by the multi-jurisdictional group that leads the 108
tech corridor effort; there is energy in the data center community and they are working 109
toward that. There have been a lot of looks on the corridor and it is an attractive site so 110
he feels it’s just a matter of time. Mayor Rafferty suggested that the lack of municipal 111
utilities and roadway is an issue so he wonders how staff is working on that; Mr. 112
Grochala explained the current process for a route; there are some pieces in progress and 113
others moving forward. 114
115
The council concurred that they would consider the plan at the next council meeting. 116
117
4. Personnel Policy 8.10 - Professional Appearance Policy Update – Human 118
Resources and Communications Manager Sawyer reviewed her written report. Staff is 119
recommending that the City’s Personnel Policy be amended by deleting the current 120
language relative to “Professional Appearance” and inserting a “Dress for Your Day” 121
dress code. Staff suggests this will be a positive change for employees and improve 122
morale. Staff seeks council direction and approval. 123
124
Councilmember Lyden said he spent some time with staff on his questions about this 125
change and is satisfied at this time. 126
127
City Administrator Cotton gave some examples of what would be allowed and what 128
wouldn’t; staff feels that a policy update is warranted. 129
130
The council concurred on the policy change. Formal council action will follow. 131

5. Flexible Work Arrangement Policy – Human Resources and Communications 133
Manager Sawyer read her written report. Staff is presenting a proposed policy for a 134
flexible work arrangement for the reasons presented. 135
136
Councilmember Lyden noted the no appeal element of the criteria decision; employees 137
understand that? Ms. Sawyer said the process allows for ample discussion but once the 138
decision is made, that would be final; Administrator Cotton added that there would be 139
sound reasoning behind decisions and she will work with employees on flexibility. 140
141
Mayor Rafferty asked if flexibility includes working from home and Ms. Sawyer said yes. 142
Mayor Rafferty noted that many positions in the City wouldn’t qualify so that is a 143
consideration for him. Ms. Sawyer explained that positions are accepted with clear 144
understanding of working conditions; she added that management is ready to do what is 145
necessary to implement a process. Ms. Cotton added that she had questions about the 146
policy but staff has done the background and she supports implementation. Ms. Cotton 147
added that, in her experience, if an employee has performance issues they would probably 148
occur in the office as well as out of the office. Ms. Cotton added that the policy would 149
limit employees to two days per week working out of the office; the goals is to continue 150
accessibility to City staff on a consistent and high level. 151
152
Mayor Rafferty said he understands that the world has changed somewhat but he is still 153
concerned about impacts on lines of communication. 154
155
Councilmember Ruhland said he can see both sides, especially from his own work 156
experience. The checks and balances are an important element. 157
158
Councilmember Stoesz said he well understands a flexible work situation; he is an 159
example and will support the plan. 160
161
Councilmember Cavegn said he sees it’s a part of the workplace today and he works in an 162
environment where it has been successful. 163
164
Administrator Cotton added that the ability to retain and recruit is a concern for her; she 165
sees flexibility is important to employees, prospective and active. Also the size of this 166
organization was a concern but staff is committed to making sure there is no loss of 167
service to our customers. 168
169
Councilmember Stoesz said he is also recommending a policy that guides City services to 170
meet customers where they are at. 171
172
A majority of the council concurred with the policy. 173
174
6. Annual Advisory Board Appointments – Administrator Cotton reviewed the 175
written report presenting information on upcoming openings. She added that Planning 176
and Zoning Board Member Reinert has submitted his resignation, thereby creating 177
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
DRAFT

another vacancy on that board. The Environmental Board appointments were handled 178
recently and the council agreed they would be reaffirming those appointments also. 179
180
Councilmember Ruhland said he would be okay reappointing incumbents and 181
interviewing only new applicants. 182
183
Councilmember Lyden and Cavegn concurred. 184
185
The council will set up an interview process – including the Park Board applicant. 186
187
The council will be available on December 13th and December 20th beginning at 5:00 188
p.m. Staff will check with applicants on their availability. 189
190
7. 2021 Budget Discussion – Public Safety Capital Equipment – Finance Director 191
Lynch noted that based on the council’s previous discussion, staff is planning to remove 192
funding for Alexandra House from the budget. The discussion of moving a public safety 193
vehicle from police to fire was tabled by the council. 194
195
Mayor Rafferty noted his recommendation to not move Vehicle 317 to Fire, thereby 196
having Fire continue to utilize Vehicle 617. Also he prefers that the budget include 197
purchase of Explorers rather than Tahoes. 198
199
Councilmember Ruhland said he visited with four police officers at his house 200
(specifically to look at their vehicles). He saw an officer riding (training) with another 201
officer and him being a larger person did not fit well in the Ford; to him, that represents a 202
need for the larger vehicle to accommodate officers. He has also done research on the 203
vehicles and sees the Tahoe has superior carriage space and that works well for cross 204
trained officers now and fire personnel when those vehicles get handed down. Safety 205
concerns also come into play; he saw a situation where a vehicle has a spare tire removed 206
and that could have an impact in a rear end collision situation. Councilmember Ruhland 207
added that he has seen that getting out of a window in an emergency situation could be an 208
issue in the Ford also. He sees the percentage savings as very small in consideration of 209
the size of the City’s budget and especially with the rationale he’s presented. 210
211
Councilmember Stoesz said he thinks it’s good to have a mix; there are some Tahoe 212
vehicles currently in the fleet. Councilmember Ruhland suggested that a mix isn’t ideal 213
when equipment may be located in different places in different vehicles. 214
Councilmember Stoesz remarked that differences will occur no matter but he likes the 215
idea of comparing vehicles and a mix allows for that; he supports the savings. 216
217
Mayor Rafferty asked for comments on holding Vehicle 317 in the police division. 218
Councilmember Ruhland said he doesn’t like the idea of moving the car with more miles 219
because there is an inherent cost to equip the vehicle for Fire. Mayor Rafferty said the 220
vehicle currently has 15,000 miles on it. Director Swenson remarked that there is a 221
chance that the vehicle wouldn’t be replaced until the end of the next year (due to 222
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
DRAFT
6
availability issues) so it may have more like 30,000 or 35,000 miles on it when it was 223
rotated. Mayor Rafferty remarked that there are other needs and this would provide some 224
funds; also probably ninety percent of the public safety vehicles used in the county are 225
Fords so he raises that in light of the safety questions noted. 226
227
Councilmember Lyden and Cavegn announced that they support the staff 228
recommendation and purchasing the Tahoe’s. 229
230
Finance Director Lynch said staff will bring forward a budget with Alexandra House 231
removed and no other changes. 232
233
Mayor Rafferty asked if staff could provide options to provide additional parks and trails 234
funding. Administration Cotton suggested that the council could seek more of a plan 235
from the Park Board for coming years so the council could see what is to be accomplished 236
and then consider surplus funding in 2022. Public Services Director DeGardner said it’s 237
a bit of a chicken and egg situation - the Park Board did put together a plan in the past 238
few years and, at some level, needs to understand the funding to make decisions about 239
what they would recommend. Councilmember Cavegn suggested a planning session of 240
the council to decide where they are interested in going. Councilmember Lyden 241
suggested the Park Board could also identify priorities without consideration of funding. 242
Administrator Cotton noted that staff time availability for additional projects must be a 243
consideration also. 244
245
Councilmember Stoesz asked if park amenities have been categorized and analyzed based 246
on people that could use them (based on location). Director DeGardner explained that the 247
planning process is based on that consideration and is based on regional and local uses. 248
249
Councilmember Lyden said he’d like the council to talk more about the Alexandra House 250
donation in an overall discussion. 251
252
Administrator Cotton remarked that there will be a point when the budget surplus is clear 253
and that could be a good time for the council to discuss use of those funds, including 254
possible parks and trails funding. 255
256
7. Council Updates on Boards/Commissions, City Council 257
258
VLAWMO – Mayor Rafferty noted a recent tour that was very informative; also work 259
that Community Development Director Grochala plans for the group. 260
261
North Metro – Councilmember Stoesz noted that the Board has had far fewer meetings in 262
the past year (COVID related) and so now has decided to meet quarterly rather than 263
monthly. 264

Councilmember Lyden asked staff if this large project is on schedule. Director DeGardner said he’s 35
not exactly certain as yet; while that’s certainly the goal, the availability of necessary product will be 36
key to staying on schedule. He updated the council on progress and promised to keep the council 37
up to date. Mr. DeGardner noted that the City is now looking at not hiring a general contractor but 38
rather handling that work in house; they would utilize WSB construction management services on 39
an as needed basis. 40

Mayor Rafferty asked about the pool area specifically. Director DeGardner reported that staff is still 42

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM 1J
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Meg Sawyer, Human Resources and Communications Manager
MEETING DATE: December 13, 2021
TOPIC: Personnel Policy Update
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting a Personnel Policy update to section 8.10 Professional Appearance. The
current policy encourages a “business casual” attire. Staff is requesting a dress code change
to “dress for your day.” We believe the change in dress code will improve employee morale
and job satisfaction, which in turn will increase productivity.
BACKGROUND
The City of Lino Lakes Dress for Your Day policy will allow for non-uniformed employees
to use their best judgment when deciding what to wear to work every day, with some basic
guidelines. The idea is that each employee should consider what their workday looks like and
dress accordingly.
For example, employees are allowed to wear casual clothing on workdays when they do not
have council meetings, work sessions, conferences, or meetings with residents or other
outside third parties. Employees are still expected to wear clothing appropriate for an office
environment, and traditional business attire is always acceptable.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of Personnel Policy modification of section 8.10 -
Professional Appearance.
ATTACHMENTS
Personnel Policy 8.10 - Professional Appearance
Personnel Policy
8.10 Professional Appearance
Personal appearance should be appropriate to the nature of the work and contacts with other
people and should present a positive image to the public. Clothing, jewelry, or other items that
could present a safety hazard are not acceptable in the workplace. Dress needs vary by function.
Employees who spend a portion of the day in the field need to dress in a professional manner
appropriate to their jobs.
Dress for Your Day
The City of Lino Lakes Dress for Your Day policy allows for non-uniformed employees to use
their best judgment when deciding what to wear to work every day, with some basic guidelines.
The idea is that each employee should consider what their workday looks like and dress
accordingly.
For example, employees are allowed to wear casual clothing on workdays when they do not have
council meetings, work sessions, conferences, or meetings with residents or other outside third
parties. Employees are still expected to wear clothing appropriate for an office environment, and
traditional business attire is always acceptable.
There may be days when special visitors are expected at city facilities and all staff may be
required to forgo Dress for Your Day and required to wear business casual attire. These days will
be announced in advance so employees can plan accordingly.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM 1K
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Meg Sawyer, Human Resources and Communications Manager
MEETING DATE: December 13, 2021
TOPIC: Flexible Work Arrangement Policy
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
In an effort to create a work environment that helps the City of Lino Lakes attract the best
talent and improve employee retention, staff is requesting Council approval on the newly
created Flexible Work Arrangement policy.
BACKGROUND
The City’s goal is to maintain or improve employee productivity while providing employees
scheduling options that encourage a productive, healthy and safe workplace; and helps
employees effectively integrate and manage their work and personal life responsibilities, and
can enhance their overall well-being and improve job satisfaction.
By allowing employees to have a better work-life balance, we are encouraging them to
become more fulfilled in their personal lives, as well as having them hold their work in much
higher regard. An increase in employee happiness, engagement, and morale means
employees that are more productive.
Flexible work arrangements will be offered to designated employees as determined by the
City Administrator. Flexible work arrangements are not appropriate for all employees or
positions and no employee is entitled or guaranteed the opportunity for a flexible work
arrangement.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of the Flexible Work Arrangement Policy.

Flexible Work Arrangement Policy
City of Lino Lakes
Flexible Work Arrangement Policy
Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for a flexible work arrangement at the City of
Lino Lakes. This policy governs work-life opportunities for the staff at the City of Lino Lakes.
Flexible work arrangements may be offered to designated employees as determined by the City
Administrator. Flexible work arrangements are not appropriate for all employees or positions and
no employee is entitled or guaranteed the opportunity for a flexible work arrangement. It is a
management option, rather than a universal employee benefit.
Goal
The City’s goal is to maintain or improve employee productivity while providing employees
scheduling options that encourage a productive, healthy and safe workplace; and helps employees
effectively integrate and manage their work and personal life responsibilities, and can enhance
their overall well-being and improve job satisfaction.
A flexible work arrangement is a business and workplace strategy, not an employee benefit or
employee right, and approval or denial is at the sole discretion of the City Administrator. The City
seeks to effectively address the personal needs of employees and the needs of their respective
departments and strives to provide for a responsibly managed workplace through careful selection,
preparation, and accountability of supervisors, managers and leaders.
Criteria
The City supports a flexible work arrangement when it is reasonable and practical to do so and
where operational needs will not be adversely affected. The City has sole discretion to determine
which positions are appropriate for a flexible work arrangement. The City reserves the right to
identify positions where work cannot be performed on a flexible basis and exempt those positions
from being eligible for a flexible work arrangement.
Several criteria will be considered when determining whether an individual employee will be
successful in their job in a flexible work arrangement including, but not limited to:
The ability for the employee’s work to be performed remotely or in a flexible schedule
The employee’s job knowledge and demonstrated dependability
The ability to establish clear objectives and work independently
The City Administrator and department directors will be responsible for identifying all roles
within the City where work can be performed on a remote or flexible basis either continuously or
with intermittent rotation into the workplace.
The City will consider requests to work a flextime schedule or telework on a case-by-case basis
considering the following non-exclusive factors: tenure, position, performance, manager support,
customer service needs, departmental/City needs, budget impact, access to support staff, and
administrative burden. Not all positions may be suitable for teleworking and/or flextime
scheduling. The City reserves the right to grant or deny requests in its sole discretion.
A flexible work arrangement does not change the terms and conditions of employment with the
City. This program does not create a contract of employment and does not alter the employee’s
status. The terms and conditions of employment are governed by applicable rules, laws, City
policies and practices.
The employee’s duties, obligations, and responsibilities with the City remain unchanged. In a
flexible work arrangement, the employee is expected to maintain the same level of performance,
responsiveness and customer service whether they are teleworking or working on-site.
This program may be revoked or changed at any time at the City’s sole discretion based on
operational needs, position requirements, employee work performance, or other factors.
The City Administrator or department director may discontinue the approved flexible work
arrangement in accordance with this policy at any time. Discontinuance, change or denial of a
flexible work arrangement is not subject to appeal.
Types of Flexible Work Arrangements - Flextime
Flextime is an arrangement in which an individual’s total number of hours worked over the course
of a workweek (non-exempt employees) or a two-week pay period (exempt employees) does not
change, but there is flexibility in an individual’s scheduled starting and ending times;
Starting/ending times may vary by day (example: Mon start at 7:30am, Tues-Friday start at
8:00am).
Process for Requesting Flextime
An employee must complete a flexible work arrangement request form and submit the form to
their department director. The department director will meet with the employee to discuss the
flexible work arrangement request and approve or deny the request. The department director will
then route the approval form to the City Administrator who has the final approval. Once
completely approved, the form is returned to Human Resources to be placed in the employees
personnel file.
Types of Flexible Work Arrangements – Teleworking
Teleworking is a regular, routine arrangement that allows the employee to perform a portion of
their job outside of the City office. This type of arrangement specifies the number of hours to be
worked outside of the office and the specific days on which the work will occur. Employees must
be self-disciplined, self-motivated, and comfortable working away from the office and without
direct oversight. Positions suited for teleworking are those that can be performed successfully with
minimal supervision and limited face-to-face contact. Teleworking is limited to a maximum of
two days per week, depending on position. A reoccurring teleworking schedule cannot be changed
due to holidays, weather, conferences, required meetings, etc.
Teleworking Work Hours
Core Work Hours are defined as the hours between 8:00am - 4:30pm.
All employees who are teleworking are expected to be available and working during the
core business hours.
Most employees will maintain a typical 8:00am - 4:30pm schedule. However due to
individual circumstances, certain employees may maintain a different 8 hours work
schedule with approval from their department director and the City Administrator.
Any changes to the individual teleworking schedule must be communicated to all City
employees.
All employees are required to be logged on and active on Cisco Jabber during core
business hours.
Teleworking Guidelines
Each Department Director must ensure complete departmental coverage at all times.
Work expectations will be established prior to authorizing the flexible work arrangement
status for an employee.
Employees must adhere to core business hours and will not be allowed to randomly, on
any given day, decide what time they will start or end their work day.
PTO/Sick/Vacation leave will be charged for any actual hours scheduled but not worked
on a workday.
Modified work schedules that result in additional overtime liability will not be allowed.
The employee work location is assumed to be their principal residence/home.
Workers compensation is not available for accidents occurred while teleworking in
employee’s principal residence/home.
All City of Lino Lakes’ policies, procedures, city rules, administrative directives, etc. are
still in effect while teleworking. (i.e. drug and alcohol policy). In addition, the City dress
code policy will be enforced for video conference meetings (cameras are required to be
on).
Teleworking and Childcare
The focus of a telework arrangement remains on job performance and meeting City needs. A
flexible work arrangement is not a substitute for dependent or childcare. Time spent working
cannot also be used for the care of dependents. Employees must report any work/child care
scheduling conflicts to their director so schedule adjustments can be considered.
Teleworking Equipment and Work Environment
The employee is responsible for providing a telework environment that is safe and as conducive to
productivity. The employee agrees to provide a secure location for City-owned equipment and
materials, and will use such equipment for City business purposes only. The employee agrees to
maintain a safe, secure and ergonomical work environment.
The employee may be required to provide personal furniture, phone, equipment, desktop or laptop
computer, scanner, printer, and software, as well as internet connectivity. These expenses will not
be reimbursed by the City. When city equipment is supplied, it must be used in an order to
maintain compliance with data practices laws.
The cost associated with the initial and ongoing setup of the telework area at the employee’s home
is the sole responsibility of the employee. This includes payment of the teleworking employee’s
utilities (heat, electricity, etc.), internet, phone, printer, ink, and other expenses and supplies.
Office supplies may be provided by the City and should be obtained in-office. Unused supplies
should be returned to the City.
The City of Lino Lakes assumes no responsibility for any use, wear and tear, loss, or maintenance
of employee-owned devices or systems.
Teleworking Security
Work done at the telework site is considered official City business. All City records, papers, and
correspondence must be safeguarded and protected from unauthorized use or disclosure.
Employees are expected to ensure the protection of information and to adhere to data privacy and
records retention laws. Employees must take care to ensure private and/or confidential data is not
accessible and that proper methods are used to transmit any private/confidential data
electronically.
Employees are required to comply with all data security standards established by the City. When
allowed to telework, the employee must use an internet connection that is secure and locked to the
public. The method of connecting to the City’s network infrastructure must use the IT approved
method of remote access and authentication. No telework will be done on a non-password
protected Wi-Fi, or in any public place, or on a public Wi-Fi connection.
If the employee has access to confidential information or related infrastructure, then they also need
to ensure that their telework environment complies with security rules related to maintaining the
confidentiality of such information.
At no time may a computer that is connected remotely to the City network be left unattended
without locking the screen. The employee must alert the IT staff if they believe their connection
has been compromised in any way.
Employee Responsibilities during Teleworking
Employees agree to be available during core business hours and fully accessible.
Employees are responsible for providing a work area suitable to completing the work
assigned. The area should be ergonomically appropriate, safe, and free from distraction.
Employees agree to be responsive to Jabber, emails, telephone calls, voicemails, and text
messages in the same manner they are when physically in the workplace. This includes
participating in meetings via video, telephone or teleconference.
Employees agree to either forward calls from their work phone to a cell/home phone or
access voicemails through Outlook email during the hours of teleworking and must
respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Note: All phone calls on a teleworker’s personal phone are subject to the FOIA (Freedom
of Information Act) rules and procedures.
If any assignments or meetings take place that require the employee’s physical presence in
the office or other location, the employee is required to report to work or to said location
and cannot be reimbursed for travel related expenses to the office.
If an employee is required to step away from their work during the course of the workday
and this absence would normally result in the employee using PTO/Vacation/Sick leave,
the employee will need to notify supervisor and use leave for those hours.
Hourly (non-exempt) employees are expected to accurately track all of their work hours in
Employee Self Service. Failure to comply with time reporting and work schedule
procedures could result in a flexible work arrangement privileges being revoked or reduced
and could result in discipline.
Hourly (non-exempt) employees are not permitted to work unauthorized overtime under
any circumstances, unless they have received prior written approval from their department
director and City Administrator.
Employees are responsible for reading and understanding this policy.
If an employee has any questions regarding this policy or any questions regarding flextime or
teleworking that are not addressed in this policy, please contact Human Resources.

AGENDA ITEM 2A (i)
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Hannah Lynch , Finance Director
MEETING DATE: December 13, 2021
TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 21-145, Adopting the Final 2021 Tax
Levy, Collectible in 2022
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
BACKGROUND
Minnesota State Statutes require the City of Lino Lakes to adopt and certify a final 2021 tax levy,
collectible in 2022 on or before December 28, 2021.
The total levy includes both an operating levy and debt service levy. The operating levy provides
resources for general city operations, Blue Heron Days, equipment replacement, street maintenance,
and park and trail improvements. The debt levy provides resources for the payment of interest and
repayment of principal on bond issues. The debt levy also includes voter-approved levies of
$178,794 to service debt for the Birch/Ware and Lake/Main intersection signalization projects and
$216,497 to service debt for the Shenandoah Street Reconstruction project.
The total proposed tax levy for 2021/22 is $11,819,287 which is $49,757 or 0.42% lower than the
preliminary levy adopted in September. The proposed levy represents an increase of $677,472, or
6.08% over the 2020/21 tax levy. The tax rate is estimated to decrease for 2022 from 40.109% to
40.088%.
A public hearing was held on the tax levy this evening. Tax levy information was presented and
discussed during the public hearing and public testimony was received.
The City Council needs to take final action on the tax levy at this time.

BACKGROUND
The City has been allocated $2,417,213.82 of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. The
funds have been accepted and are planned to be used in a manner consistent with guidance
adopted by the United States Department of Treasury.
Under current guidance the city is able to calculate lost revenue at four points in time:
December 31, 2020; December 31, 2021; December 31, 2022; and December 31, 2023. As of
December 31, 2020, the City of Lino Lakes has calculated $1,458,716.00 of lost revenue.
The City intends to use the lost revenue funds for the provision of government services to re-
open the Rookery Activity Center and, if needed, other pay-go spending for capital
improvements and purchases.
The City is re-opening the vacated YMCA with the goal of creating a community space which
promotes physical health and mental well-being. Re-opening costs consist of creating a
sustainable recreation center and setting up for a new management model. Physical adaptions
for COVID-19 will be considered throughout the project as well as the long-term success of
promoting a healthy community.
The Remaining ARPA funds of $958,497.82 are planned to be used to make necessary
investments in water, sewer, or broadband infrastructure. The specific project(s) have not been
identified at this time.
This ARPA Spending Plan is intended to represent the City’s current plan for the funds and can
be amended, if needed, in the future.

Preparing for Emerald Ash Borer Grant Contract with Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
BACKGROUND
Emerald ash borer (EAB), a non-native, invasive beetle that kills ash trees, was first confirmed in
Lino Lakes in 2017. Since then, the rates of infestation and tree mortality have increased rapidly
throughout the city.
Our response to EAB includes removals of boulevard ash trees, replacement of these trees with a
diverse mix of species, and insecticide injections that allow us to stagger removals over time.
We currently remove and replace approximately 30 boulevard ash trees per year. It will take
approximately 10 years to complete removals and replacements at this rate.
The State of Minnesota has made grant funds available for the removal and replacement of ash
trees on public land through the 2021 Preparing for EAB Grant. Staff submitted a grant proposal
for this program that has been approved for funding. To accept these funds, the city must enter
into a contract with the state, ensuring work is completed as described in the plan.
The plan includes 91 boulevard ash tree removals; 31 removals performed by Parks staff, and 60
removals performed by a contractor. Parks staff will be planting 91 bare root trees as
replacements. The grant funds will cover the 60 contracted removals and stump grinding, the 91
bare root replacement trees, and planting supplies. The 25% match required from the city will be
provided through staff time spent on removals, planting, watering, pruning, training, outreach,
and inspections. Estimated project costs are included below:
Description Grant Funded City Match
Contracted removals $25,109.50
Staff removals $10,755.50
Trees $6,825.00
Planting materials $976.36
Maintenance, inspections $6,082.44
Total: $32,910.86 $16,837.94
Project Total: $49,748.80

Project Overview
Emerald ash borer was first confirmed in Lino Lakes in 2017. Since then, the rates of infestation and tree
mortality have increased rapidly throughout the City. Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Park, a county park that our
City completely surrounds, has a large number of ash trees, many of which are currently infested. The
Department of Agriculture holds field sessions at Wargo Nature Center because there are plenty of infested
trees there to use as examples.
Our Parks crew has been aggressively removing ash trees from boulevards, parks, and natural areas since 2010.
We currently have 287 boulevard ash trees remaining. Resources allow us to treat 100 trees per year to allow
for staggered removals over time. Budget allows for removal and replacement of 30 boulevard ash trees per
year, along with additional removals and replacements of hazard trees of other species. At this rate, it will take
10 years to remove and replace all boulevard ash in the City. 2024 will be the first year that we can dependably
treat half of our remaining boulevard trees, so for the next three years, trees will be on a 3 year treatment cycle,
leaving trees less protected against ash borer damage.
While removals in parks and natural areas are ongoing, our inventory of these areas is far from complete. The
sooner we can complete removals and replacements of boulevard trees, the sooner we can focus our efforts
entirely on parks, trails, and natural areas.
• The plan we are submitting will allow for three years worth of removals and replacements in one year,
which will bring our number of remaining boulevard ash below 200 so we can continue to remove them
safely.
• The plan involves contracted removal of 60 trees that are large enough to be beyond the scope of what
can be safely handled with our aerial truck, which has a 30 foot reach.

Grant for Legislatively-named Municipality FY19: Updated November 2018 8
• Our Parks crew will be supplementing this contracted work with 31 removals of slightly smaller trees.
This crew will also be planting and maintaining all 91 replacement trees.
Timeline
• All 91 tree removals, stump grinding, and turf restoration will occur between October 1, 2021 and April
30th, 2022.
• Bare root trees will be ordered by January 1st, 2022.
• Trees will be delivered in Spring of 2022. Utility locates and planting locations will be determined a
week prior to delivery date. Trees will be kept moist and shaded, then installed, mulched, and watered
within two weeks of delivery.
• Residents will be encouraged in the informational letter to provide 20 gallons of water for every week in
which at least an inch of rain does not fall. This watering will be supplemented by our Parks crew with
a water tanker truck, which will run the route weekly throughout the growing season.
• Deer and rodent guards will be installed by August 1st of 2022 and removed by June 1st of 2023.
• Pruning will be performed at installation (only dead branches), at year 3, and every 5 years from that
point on (as needed and as dictated by resources). Pruning techniques employed by our crew follow the
Gilman method and ISA recommendations.
• Inspections for tree health, proper mulching, and pruning needs will be performed once at installation,
again by August 1st, and annually in Spring thereafter until final report submittal in 2024.
Project Budget Explanation
Our project involves 91 boulevard tree removals and replacements. A contractor will be performing 60 of the
removals and stump grinding. Parks staff will be removing 31 trees, grinding stumps and restoring turf. They
will also be planting all 91 bare root trees and performing maintenance thereafter.
• Our request is strictly for funds related to contracted removals, replacement trees, and planting
materials. We are asking for $32,910.86 to cover these three items.
• In turn, our in-kind match will be in labor, equipment use, and other staff time related to inspections and
maintenance of the trees. These efforts are valued at $16,837.94. Explanations of this amount is given
on the budget form, as well as an excel spreadsheet "Bonding Grant Plan" that will be included with our
submitted application materials.
• The price of 1.25-2" inch caliper bare root trees was approximated to $75.00 to allow for flexibility in
acquiring these trees and an acknowledgment that availability may force us to make minor changes in
size or species.
Project Impacts on Priority Landscapes and Populations
While Lino Lakes does not have notable disparities in health and environmental quality for diverse populations,
nor does the MPCA environmental justice interactive map identify any areas of concern related to income level
or ethnic background, there is still an exceptional need in our community for trees to replace the heavy losses
that EAB is currently inflicting. There is a strong level of support and commitment in Lino Lakes for ensuring
that our urban forest is managed with care for generations to follow, as evinced by 30 years of acknowledgment
as a Tree City USA.
• With the high level of growth that is expected to continue, our efforts to increase canopy cover and
maintain a resilient assemblage of species and plant communities remains a focal point of our
environmental efforts. These efforts will benefit all members of our community into the future.

Tree Planting
Grant funds will not fund the purchase of trees that are over-represented in your community. Any genera that
comprise 10% or more of the community forest make-up will not be funded. Numbers derived from the
Minnesota Department of Natural Resources 2010 Rapid Assessment will be used unless an updated inventory
is provided. For Lino Lakes this means grant funds cannot be spent on purchasing:
• Acer (maple): 25.9%
• Picea (spruce): 18.8%
All trees planted with grant funds are expected to be maintained based on the City of Lino Lakes’s Three Year
Tree Maintenance Plan submitted as Exhibit C. Trees that do not survive will need to be replaced prior to grant
close-out utilizing the warranty the city has with the nursery that stock was purchased from, or at the expense of
the City of Lino Lakes.

Bare root
The City will be responsible for installation and maintenance of these 91 trees. Our crew will plant,
mulch, and prune these trees. The City Parks crew has an extensive background in maintaining
boulevard trees.
Training will not be needed for the Parks crew, as they have extensive experience working with planting
and maintaining boulevard trees. We will review planting, mulching, and watering practices just prior to
planting. Homeowners will have limited roles in tree maintenance, but they will receive instructions
regarding leaving mulch in place and about how frequently to water the trees.
I will be present at the first several plantings to refresh the crew on techniques. Inspections will follow
after all trees are planted, again by August 1st, and annually in spring thereafter. The "How to Plant
Trees" brochure will be provided to all staff involved in the project.
Trees will be kept moist until planting, then watered thoroughly directly after planting. All residents receive a
letter encouraging them to leave the mulch in place as installed and to provide 20 gallons of water per week
on weeks that don't receive an inch or more of rain. The efforts of the homeowners will be supplemented by
Parks crew members running a weekly route with a water tanker trunk, checking soil moisture and watering
accordingly. Extra care will be given during the hotter periods of the summer.

3.Mulching Trees
Will you mulch your trees and if so, how will you maintain mulch?
4.Staking and Tying Trees
Explain if staking is necessary due to mowing, vandalism, or wind conditions, and describe plans for
inspection and removal.
5.Checking Tree Health
The grantee will check trees every 6 – 12 months to identify and address problems. Describe inspection
process and follow-up.
6.Tree Protection
Young trees in busy urban areas may be easily damaged by human activity, animals, and equipment.
Describe how planted trees will be protected.
7.Pruning
Newly planted trees should need little pruning, if they were properly cared for in the nursery. In the first
year after planting, remove only dead or broken branches. In later years, weakly attached limbs can be
removed, and corrective pruning can be done if needed. Describe your pruning maintenance cycle.
8.Tree Warranty
Tree planting should include a warranty from the nursery for replacement (due to poor condition or
mortality). The grantee should be prepared to fully replace all trees that are in poor condition or die
prior to inspection at the end of the project grant agreement, unless loss was due to natural disaster.
Describe your tree warranty or how trees will be replaced.
We will be applying roughly 0.25 cubic yards of mulch to each tree. Mulch will be 3-4 inches deep and
approximately 2.5 foot radius around each tree. Care will be taken to ensure that no mulch is touching
the trunk, and that mulch is level to avoid creating mulch volcanoes. Additionally, we distribute proper
mulching advice in our city newsletter and in a letter that all homeowners will receive to explain care of
the new boulevard trees. We will also post mulching advice on our facebook page closer to planting time.
Staking has not been required for most boulevard trees in the City. In the rare cases that wind makes
staking necessary, we use a three-point method with nylon straps and slack rope that will only become
taut with wind. These stakes are removed within one year to encourage proper root anchoring from the
tree itself. In cases of heavier leaning, we re-dig to make adjustments to soil levels to reposition the tree.
The inspection process will include visits to each tree by the Environmental Coordinator (ISA arborist
#4755-A). Any corrective actions needed will be noted during an inspection at installation, again by
August 1st, and annually in spring thereafter. Corrective actions will be performed by the Parks crew.
Deer/rodent guards will be installed by August 1st and removed by June 1st each year.
We will prune once at installation to remove dead or broken branches. Trees will be pruned in year 3 for
structure correction, removal of codominant stems, and removal of any dead branches. Trees will be
pruned every five years after that as needed and as resources allow. Pruning will follow the Gilman
method and ISA recommendations.
We will request a one-year warranty be included in the bare root stock that we purchase. The City
replaces all trees that die outside of the warranty period on any project. We will include any trees that die
outside of the warranty period in the planting that occurs the next spring.

Properties that would otherwise be deemed premature under the Development
Agreement or City Code is contingent upon Developer executing this Occupancy
Agreement and abiding by its terms.
3. Limited Occupancy and Use. Developer agrees that the model homes and any
other structures built on the Subject Properties with City approval shall not be
occupied for residential purposes, or for any other purposes, until all
improvements required under the Development Agreement are installed and the
appropriate certificate of occupancy is issued.
4. Restrictions on Conveyance. Developer shall not convey the home or Subject
Property to another person or entity while the Subject Property is subject to this
Occupancy Agreement, except as otherwise approved in writing by the City.
Regardless of City approval, this Occupancy Agreement shall be effective against

Plans and Specs, 2022 East Shadow Lake Drive Utility Project
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting Council authorization to prepare plans and specifications for the 2022 East
Shadow Lake Drive Utility Project.
BACKGROUND
Through routine maintenance and pipe investigation, staff has identified sewer mains that have
settled and are sagging along East Shadow Lake Drive and Lantern Lane. This has led to water
infiltration and impacts to sewer flows. The project will include replacement of sagging sanitary
pipes, manholes, water system replacement, roadway reconstruction and restoration of adjacent
property. The project will result in reduced inflow and infiltration of ground water in the
sanitary sewer system.
WSB & Associates has submitted a proposal to complete the plans and specifications, and provide
bid documents for the 2022 East Shadow Lake Drive Utility Project in the amount of $22,500.00.
The estimated total project cost is $510,000. The project is funded through the City’s Sewer
Operating Fund.

STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala, Community Development
MEETING DATE: December 13, 2021
TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 21-158, Approving Economic
Development Strategic Plan, Michael Grochala
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting City Council approval of the Economic Development Strategic Plan.
BACKGROUND
As part of the City’s economic development efforts, EDAC is responsible for the preparation of
a 5-year Economic Development Strategic Plan. The plan was last updated in 2014. Over the
past 11 months, staff and EDAC committee members have been working on updating this plan.
From our past discussion and review of the 2014 Strategic Plan, staff and the EDAC has
assembled a draft 5-year plan for the City Council’s review and consideration. The document
is intended to be a guide to help prioritize the City’s economic development efforts.
The Plan identifies six main priorities which include:
Priority 1: Develop Balance of Woods Edge Property
Summary: The site is located at Interstate 35W and Lake Drive. The City
retains approximately 9 acres of property. The area is guided and zoned for a
mix of commercial and high-density residential uses intended to serve as the
City’s “Town Center”. The transition of the YMCA to a City facility provides
an opportunity to revisit the vision for the area and create an identity for future
development. The EDAC recognizes the private market will prescribe the
ultimate development scenario; however, there are key elements which are
within the City’s sphere of influence. Lino Lakes ability to be flexible both on
land sale pricing and type of development, plus the potential to assist with
financing gaps will ultimately assist in the facilitation of a development plan that
meets the city’s goals.
Priority 2: Business Retention and Expansion Program
Summary: Retention and expansion of key businesses is an important strategy
in promoting continued economic growth. It is an avenue by which
communities promote reinvestment and facilitate employment growth. By
establishing a formal Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) Program, Lino
Lakes can enhance its relationship with key existing businesses. The BRE
program is an avenue to gather information about local business activity,
anticipate changes in a company’s status, and work to retain the businesses that
provide the greatest positive economic impact. The EDAC identified business
retention as a high priority for the City’s economic development efforts.
Priority 3: Workforce Development Plan
Summary: Access to labor pools and a skilled workforce is critical to retention
of existing businesses and facilitating new opportunities. Linking local
businesses with workforce development resources is an important role for City
Economic Development efforts.
Priority 4: Identification of Potential Redevelopment Areas and Strategic Acquisitions
Summary: Reinvesting in underutilized property is a valuable tool for City
economic development efforts. The City should also be ready to act when
property becomes available to meet long term development and infrastructure
needs.
Priority 5: Continue to Promote Development of the I-35E/Main Street Corridor
Summary: Development in this area will be predominantly market driven. The
construction of the Watermark housing development creates additional
commercial opportunities. Industrial development interest is increasing, but will
be dependent on the availability of public infrastructure to serve the sites and
active landowner participation. Infrastructure improvements and “readiness”
will be a driving factor in attracting new development. The City’s partnership
with the Minnesota Technology Corridor provides regional exposure to the
locational benefits of the area.
Priority 6: Updating and Expanding the City Marketing Materials
Summary: The development and updating of the marketing materials for the
community to be able to readily react to opportunities for new projects and the
expansion of existing businesses.
EDAC RECOMMENDATION
The EDAC recommended approval of the Strategic Plan.

2Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
The Lino Lakes Economic Development Advisory
Committee (EDAC) assists community leaders and staff
in the continued development and growth of the City.
As part of this assistance, the EDAC develops a strategic
plan to identify priorities for the community and the
EDAC over the course of the next 5 years.
The EDAC last completed a strategic plan in 2014 to
provide focus on the economic development priorities
that will provide the greatest value to the community
as it continues to grow and develop. The development
of these goals and focuses in 2014 provided the basis
for the plan but didn’t prevent the city from actively
working on and responding to project requests from the
state, GREATERMSP and other partners. The updated
strategic plan will continue to build upon this flexibility
in the plan to react to the conditions and opportunities
facing the community.

Strategic Plan
3Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
Economic development does not operate in a vacuum and touches several different
areas in a community outside of traditionally recognized job and tax base development.
These areas can include the development of housing opportunities, workforce
development (development of people with the skills for new positions), infrastructure
planning, and quality of life issues. The understanding of the complexity of economic
development results in the creation of the 3 Ps of economic development. These
tenants of economic development are:
The successful implementation of these principles will result in the
community gaining the most covenanted of the “Ps” of a new project.
As the EDAC is currently in the process of updating its strategic plan for the next 5
years, the areas that have been identified as the focuses and goals fit within the Ps
of economic development. This preparation includes the development of programs
and focuses to allow for the city to be successful in the attraction and retention of
businesses to the community. In addition, the priorities will also include how the
community can improve the quality of life for the residents of Lino Lakes. With the final
priority being the development of new and updated marketing materials or the process
of telling our story.
As the EDAC knows, over 85% of business growth is from currently existing businesses
in the community. The active retention of those businesses is facilitated by the
development of relationships with the company, the ability to understand their needs,
and how the city can assist in meeting those needs therefore helping the company
to grow and prosper. This methodology is used to also advance the other priorities
identified with the development of strong relationships with the affected parties and
property owners.

Demographics
The development of these relationships often starts with the understanding of the communities’
demographics and how they affect the potential projects and the businesses in the community.
This information provides the basis for the objectives that the community will begin to work
towards solving in the future. The demographics of Lino Lakes has seen significant change in
several demographic areas over the last few years.
POPULATION
The population for Lino Lakes has grown steadily
since 2010, resulting in a 10% increase in the
population. This continued steady growth will
help the community as local companies grow and
new companies join the community accessing
new employees. It will also affect the need for
additional housing and may drive the value of
existing housing higher, causing additional strain
on housing affordability in the community.
5Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
EDUCATION
The City also has a well-educated workforce,
with more than 77% of the workforce having
some college experience. This includes 48%
with a bachelors or higher degree. Technical
Colleges or 2 year degrees are included in the
some college number of residents at 29%. This
high level of education compared to the states
overall education level of 32% with some college
and 37% with a bachelors degree or higher.
INCOME
This higher level of education also provides the additional support of the higher median income for the City. Lino Lakes
currently has a median household income of $115,519 compared to Minnesota’s median household income of $69,559.
The City is also significantly above the MSA which is at $83,904. In addition to the higher household income, the City
also has a significantly higher per capita income for the community. In 2021, Lino Lakes has a per capita income of
$43,617 compared to the states per capita income of $36,727 and the MSA’s of $42,459. The lower separation of the
per capita income level reflects the younger age in the community, resulting in families with children still living with
their parents.
This higher median income also has the advantage of the City having a wealth index of 190 compared to the MSA’s
index of 127 indicating that the city has significantly above average wealth (an index of 100 would indicate average
wealth). The wealth index is based upon the entire wealth of a household including material possessions and
resources.
MEDIAN AGE
In addition to the continuing growth of the population of the community, the median age also affects many aspects
of the economic wellbeing of the City. Lino Lakes currently has a median age of 38 years old compared to the states
median age of 39 years and is in-line with the Minneapolis/St. Paul MSA’s of 37.9 years. The younger median age of the
population provides the future opportunity for continued growth of the median income as these residents reach their
maximum earning years. The lower median age also provides the potential opportunity for future workforce growth as
they graduate and become members of the workforce. This opportunity also allows for the development of long-term
relationships with the community and businesses as they continue to age.
6Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
AFFORDABILITY
When looking at the affordability of housing, the City has a housing affordability index of 185 compared to the MSA
rating of 146. The housing affordability index is based on the level of the median income of an area to qualify for a
mortgage on a home at the median home price. An index of 100 means that households with a median income will not
be a cost burden for housing costs.
Housing
While population growth and a higher per capita income are a positive for the community, they
can present several challenges for the City. One of these challenges is the availability and cost
of new housing for new residents and residents looking to move up in the type of housing. This
housing market activity can cause an increase in the selling price and value of homes resulting in
homes being less affordable for new and younger families.
The aging of the housing stock will also present opportunities for the community as those moving into those units
begin to update and replace systems (e.g., furnaces, air conditioning, and appliances) increasing the need for
additional services. Areas with housing stock that has outlived its useful life span may provide the opportunity for
redevelopment as the city continues to grow and develop.
MEDIAN HOME VALUE
The City currently has a median home value
of $333,076 compared to the Minneapolis/St.
Paul MSA value of $297,739. While this higher
value has advantages for the City and current
homeowners, it may prevent new families from
owning a home.
AGE OF HOUSING STOCK
Lino Lakes is a young community that has seen
significant growth over the last 20 years. The City
is now seeing an aging of the current housing
stock with a majority of the housing being
constructed prior to 2000. Over 73% of the
current housing stock is 20 years old or older.
7Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
Goals
The EDAC has recognized these demographic changes in the community and incorporated them
in the updated goals and focuses of the EDAC over the next 5 years. The updated plan has also
incorporated the goals from the recently completed 2040 Comprehensive Plan as the basis for
the areas of focus of the plan:
Expand and diversify the City’s tax base by encouraging commercial and industrial
development in the Planned Residential/ Commercial, Office Residential, Signature
Gateway and Town Center Areas to lessen the tax burden on residential properties.
Work with developers to identify innovative strategies for attracting entry level
and smaller entrepreneurial businesses to Lino Lakes.
Attract and encourage new light industrial, high tech, business and professional
services enterprises and maintain and expand existing businesses in Lino Lakes.
Promote efficient, planned commercial and industrial expansion within the City’s
growth areas, accessible to public infrastructure and transportation.
Promote Lino Lakes’ location within the metropolitan region as an
advantage in doing business.
8Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
PRIORITY 1:
Develop Balance of Woods Edge Property
The site is located at Interstate 35W and Lake Drive. The City retains approximately 9 acres of property. The area is
guided and zoned for a mix of commercial and high-density residential uses intended to serve as the City’s “Town
Center”. The transition of the YMCA to a City facility provides an opportunity to revisit the vision for the area and create
an identity for future development.
Priorities
Using those goals as a template, the EDAC has developed the following list of priorities to
focus on for the implementation of the goals from the comprehensive plan.
PRIORITY 2:
Business Retention and Expansion Program
Retention and expansion of key businesses is an important strategy in promoting continued economic growth. It is
an avenue by which communities promote reinvestment and facilitate employment growth. By establishing a formal
Business Retention and Expansion (BRE) Program, Lino Lakes can enhance its relationship with key existing businesses.
The BRE is an avenue to gather information about local business activity, anticipate changes in a company’s status, and
work to retain the businesses that provide the greatest positive economic impact.
EDAC identified business retention as a high priority for the City’s economic development efforts.
EDAC recognizes that the private market will prescribe
the ultimate development scenario; however, there
are key elements which are within the City’s sphere
of influence. Lino Lakes ability to be flexible both on
land sale pricing and type of development, plus the
potential to assist with financing gaps will ultimately
assist in the facilitation of a development plan that
meets the city’s goals.
PRIORITY 3:
Workforce Development Plan
Access to labor pools and a skilled workforce is critical to retention of existing businesses and facilitating new
opportunities. Linking local businesses with workforce development resources is an important role for City
Economic Development efforts.
9Lino Lakes Economic Development Strategic Plan
PRIORITY 4:
Identification of potential redevelopment areas and strategic acquisitions
Reinvesting in underutilized property is a valuable tool for City economic development efforts. The City should also be
ready to act when property becomes available to meet long term development and infrastructure needs.

PRIORITY 5:
Continue to promote development of the I-35E/Main Street Corridor
PRIORITY 6:
Updating and Expanding the City Marketing Materials
The development and updating of the marketing materials for the community to be able to readily react to
opportunities for new projects and the expansion of existing businesses.
The development and adoption of a strategic plan requires that the EDAC also develop and implement a process for
completing the priorities and the regular review of those priorities to adjust as required by the economic environment
and conditions. This allows for the EDAC to be successful in their goals for the continued development and growth of
the community.
The development of this process and tracking system is most easily completed by the creation of a matrix with the
goals listed and the steps for the completion of those goals listed and assigned. This allows for the EDAC to readily
track their progress and what changes need to be made based on economic conditions.
In addition to allowing the EDAC to track their progress, it also allows for the EDAC to show progress and communicate
successes for the community.
Development in this area will be predominantly
market driven. The construction of the Watermark
housing development creates additional commercial
opportunities. Industrial development interest is
increasing but will be dependent on the availability
of public infrastructure to serve the sites and active
landowner participation. Infrastructure improvements
and “readiness” will be a driving factor in attracting new
development. The City’s partnership with the Minnesota
Technology Corridor provides regional exposure to the
locational benefits of the area.
