PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE SPECIAL PRESENTATIONS The Lino Lakes Ambassadors provided a report on the parades, events and activities that they had participated in recently and the upcoming events. Mayor Rafferty thanked the Lino Lakes Ambassadors for their work in representing Lino Lakes. PUBLIC COMMENT Mayor Rafferty opened the public comment period. Lajos (John) Miho, 858 Lois Lane, Lino Lakes, stated that his wife was issued a citation for the temporary fence on their property. He requested clarification on the issuance of the citation. RESULT: CARRIED [5-0] MOVER: Lyden SECONDER: Stoesz AYES: Rafferty, Cavegn, Lyden, Ruhland and Stoesz NAYS: None Page 43 of 101 Lino Lakes City Council Minutes Page 2 of 7 Mayor Rafferty stated that he would review the conditions of the citation with staff and follow up with Mr. Miho. Catherine Decker, 614 Pine Street, Lino Lakes, stated that her property is located along the northeast side of the Nature’s Refuge North development. She stated that she believes the City of Lino Lakes, Rice Creek Watershed District and the developer M|I Homes are actively violating drainage and grading laws. She stated that she will pursue legal action if these violations are not immediately corrected. She stated that there is documentation that the grading plan shows the developer has raised the ground elevation higher than the adjoining properties including her property. She stated that the drainage path, which has historically carried water off their land has been cut off. She stated that M|I Homes has built a retaining wall of dirt at the property line, turning neighboring parcels into receiving basins for storm water. There is no functioning swale, no permanent outlet, no drainage easement protecting existing residents. She reviewed city code, watershed district rules, and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency regulations, related to adverse drainage impacts on adjacent properties. Ms. Decker stated that if this project continues without a properly designated perimeter swale along the northeast boundary to a recorded drainage easement protecting affected homeowners, and there isn’t independent verification that runoff will not exceed pre- development levels. She will initiate a civil lawsuit naming M|I Homes, the City of Lino Lakes and any responsible engineers as defendants. She stated that she expects an immediate enforcement of the rules, a stop work order on the northeast section, and full transparency regarding all storm water and grading documents. If that does not happen voluntarily it will happen through the court. Chris Stowe, 426 Pine Street, Lino Lakes, expressed his strong opposition to the City owning and operating a cannabis retail business while also issuing business licenses to private competitors. The City’s role is to regulate businesses, not to compete with private citizens. He stated that by entering the cannabis business the city exposes itself to enormous legal liability when a private customer leaves a city owned dispensary impaired and causes and accident. Mr. Stowe stated that the Minnesota Constitution prohibits public funds from being used privately or for private or proprietary ventures. He stated that any resident of Lino Lakes has a legal standing to challenge this decision in court. If the Council proceeds, it is inviting litigation and public scrutiny, and he will be among those ready to pursue both. The City of Lino Lakes should not be in business. It should be supporting businesses. He urged the Council to immediately withdraw any city involvement in cannabis. Mr. Stowe stated that on another matter he wanted to address the serious drainage problem affecting his neighbors and other nearby properties. He stated that the problem his property is experiencing right now is historically the drainage that flowed south from their properties, and then west through the culvert where the new road is being built and into the ditch south of Andall Street is now flowing north of Andall Street. And the Andal Street pipe is two feet too high. He stated that he has been complaining about that pipe being too high for years now. He said the Page 44 of 101 Lino Lakes City Council Minutes Page 3 of 7 city needs to lower the pipes because the building alternations are flooding him out worse than before.

Consider Resolution No. 25-155, Declaring Intent to Reimburse Certain Expenditures from Bond Proceeds, Public Works Building ii. Consider Resolution No. 25-156, Declaring Intent to Reimburse Certain Expenditures from Bond Proceeds, Otter Lake Road Extension Project VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority ______________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Staff is requesting council approval to declare the City’s intent to reimburse itself from bond proceeds for the proposed 2026 Capital Improvement Projects. BACKGROUND The City is in the process of preparing plans and specifications for the reconstruction of the Public Works Building and the Otter Lake Road Extension project. Both projects are proposed for improvement in 2026. The Public Works Building is proposed to be financed by the issuance of Lease Revenue Bonds. The Otter Lake Road Extension project is proposed to be financed by a combination of General Obligation and Utility Revenue Bonds. The Internal Revenue Code requires cities to declare their intent to reimburse project costs incurred prior to receipt of bond proceeds. Preliminary expenditures such as architectural, engineering, surveying, bond issuance, and similar costs are exempt from this provision. Reimbursement of land and construction costs requires the resolution. The total amount of bonds issued may be less than the authorized limit. Approval of the reimbursement bond resolution does not obligate the City to issue bonds. Page 50 of 101 2 RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending adoption of Resolution No. 25-155 and 25-156.

Reg. § 1.150-2 (the “Reimbursement Regulations”), providing that proceeds of tax-exempt bonds used to reimburse prior expenditures will not be deemed spent unless certain requirements are met; and WHEREAS, the City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota (the “City”) expects to incur certain expenditures with respect to projects that may be financed temporarily from sources other than bonds, and reimbursed from the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds; and WHEREAS, the City has determined to make a declaration of official intent (the “Declaration”) to reimburse certain costs from proceeds of bonds in accordance with the Reimbursement Regulations. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Lino Lakes that based on the following: 1. The City or the Lino Lakes Economic Development Authority (the “Authority”) proposes to issue bonds to finance costs of the public works building project (the “Project”) in the amount of up to $29,500,000. 2. The City reasonably expects to reimburse the expenditures made for certain costs of the Project from proceeds of one or more series of bonds in an estimated principal amount of up to $29,500,000, which may be issued by the City or the Authority. All reimbursed expenditures will be capital expenditures, costs of issuance of the bonds, or other expenditures eligible for reimbursement under Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the Reimbursement Regulations. 3. This Declaration has been made not later than sixty (60) days after payment of any original expenditure to be subject to a reimbursement allocation with respect to the proceeds of bonds, except for the following expenditures: (a) costs of issuance of bonds; (b) costs in an amount not in excess of $100,000 or five percent (5%) of the proceeds of an issue; or (c) “preliminary expenditures” up to an amount not in excess of twenty percent (20%) of the aggregate issue price of the issue or issues that finance or are reasonably expected by the City Page 52 of 101 2 4898-7433-2534.1 to finance the project for which the preliminary expenditures were incurred.

TIME ENDED: 8:04 P.M. LOCATION: Community Room MEMBERS PRESENT: Mayor Rafferty Councilmembers Ruhland (arrived at 6:03 p.m.), Lyden, Stoesz and Cavegn ABSENT: None Staff Members Present: City Administrator Karen Anderson, City Clerk Roberta Colotti, Community Development Director Mike Grochala, City Planner Katie Larsen, Chief of Police Curt Boehme, Fire Chief Dan L’Allier and Public Service Director Rick DeGardner. 1. Call to Order and Roll Call Mayor Rafferty called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. 2. Setting the Agenda: Addition or Deletion of Agenda Items The agenda was adopted as presented. 3. 2026 Public Improvement Project Financing The Community Development Director introduced Jason Aarsvold, Senior Municipal Advisor, with Ehlers. Mr. Aarsvold presented a recommendation for funding the 2026 Improvement Projects, including the Otter Lake Road Extension Project and the Public Works Building Construction. The projects will be funded with a combination of bonds and cash on hand. He reviewed the city’s bonding authority, timeline and process. He reviewed the alternatives to the proposed financing plan. Council Consensus It was the consensus of the City Council to move forward with the financing plan as proposed. 4. Lino Lakes Dealership and Offices – Motor Vehicle Sales Lot Conditional Use Permit The City Planner presented the land use application for Lino Lakes Dealership and Offices. The proposed development is a motor vehicle sales lot and office building. The property address is 7920 Lake Drive. The applicant Tyler Heubsch (DBA Dealer Units) has submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit for Motor Vehicle Sales Lot and a Site Improvement Performance Agreement. Page 56 of 101 Page 2 of 5 The City Council did not favor the use at this location given the surrounding land uses, traffic flow, and location on the corner of Lake Drive and Kelly Street. The City Planner reported that this item will be brought forward for formal action at the November 10, 2025 City Council meeting. 5. ATV / Golf Carts on Public Streets The Chief of Police reported that City Code Chapter 807, Subd. 03 regulates the operation of ATVs and snowmobiles. Current city code allows snowmobiles to operate on city streets at speeds under 15 mph, while ATVs are prohibited from operating on any city street. The ordinance does not address the use of golf carts; and since their use is not explicitly permitted, it is prohibited by default. The Chief of Police reported that Minnesota Statute 169.045 authorizes the governing body of any city to permit, by ordinance, the operation of motorized golf carts, all- terrain vehicles, utility task vehicles, or mini trucks on designated roadways under its jurisdiction. The statute requires that the city ordinance: • Designate the specific roadways where operation is allowed. • Limit hours of operation unless the vehicle is equipped with original headlights taillights, and rear-facing brake lights. • Prohibit operation during inclement weather. • Require the display of a slow-moving vehicle emblem. Authorization to operate a motorized golf cart, all-terrain vehicle, utility task vehicles, or mini truck must be granted through a permit process. Minnesota Statute establishes that the permits may not exceed three years. If the city proceeds, it would need to adopt a permit fee schedule and collect sufficient information to determine permit eligibility. Permit fees in other communities range from no fee to $30. The permit would require at the minimum: • Name and address of the applicant • Model name, make, and year and number of the vehicle • Driver's license information • Insurance and registration in compliance with the provisions of Minn. Statutes Police staff reviewed ordinances from 20 neighboring and similarly sized communities to determine how common it is to allow golf cart and ATV use. The review also identified common restrictions used to address potential issues. The survey showed that nine (9) communities do not allow golf cart or ATV use, nine (9) communities allow golf cart use and seven (7) of those cities also allow ATVs. Two (2) communities allow ATVs but not golf carts. Page 57 of 101 Page 3 of 5 Council Consensus It was the consensus of the City Council to direct staff to prepare further information and recommendations related to an ordinance amendment to allow golf cart use on certain streets with conditions. (Mayor Rafferty and Council Member Cavegn were opposed.) Councilmember Lyden stated that he would like the city to review regulations related to e-bikes as well. 6. Amendment to Endurance Fitness, Professional Management Services and Fitness Center Agreement The Public Services Director reported that the Professional Management Services and Fitness Center Agreement between Endurance Fitness and the City of Lino Lakes was prepared by ISG prior to the opening of The Rookery Activity Center in May, 2022. The current contract ends December 31, 2026. Negotiations will begin after the first of the year for a new contract. The Public Services Director stated that all sections of the current agreement have worked well for both entities with the exception of the revenue sharing formula. He reviewed the requested amendments to the current contract. Council Consensus It was the consensus of the City Council to authorize staff to proceed with the addendums to the Professional Management Services and Fitness Center Agreement for the current contract with Endurance Fitness as outlined in the staff report. 7. Metropolitan Council 2050 System Statement The Community Development Director stated that Minn. Stat. 473.145 requires the Metropolitan Council (Met Council) to adopt a comprehensive development guide for the metropolitan area. Minn. Stat. 473.175 requires the Met Council to review local government comprehensive plans to determine compatibility with this regional development guide. These plans are developed and updated every 10 years. The Community Development Director reported that in early 2025, the Met Council adopted Imagine 2050 as the comprehensive regional development guide. It establishes the regional vision for the seven-county metropolitan area for the next 25 years. The guide includes 5 policy plans: 1. 2050 Land Use Plan 2. 2050 Transportation Policy Plan 3. 2050 Water Resources Policy Plan 4. 2050 Regional Parks Policy Plan 5. 2050 Housing Plan Page 58 of 101 Page 4 of 5 The Community Development Director reported that on September 25, 2025, the Met Council issued the 2025 System Statement for Lino Lakes. The system statement explains the implications of the policy plans for each individual community. Pursuant to Minn. State 473.864, subd. 2, within three years after receiving a system statement Lino Lakes is required to review its comprehensive plan to ensure continued conformity with metropolitan system plans and amend if necessary. The Community Development Director stated that the amendment/update of the city’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan is due by December 31, 2028. The Community Development Director stated that a representative of the Met Council has been invited to attend the December 1, 2025 Council Work Session. 8. 2026 Fee Schedule The City Clerk provided additional information on filing fees as requested by the City Council in review of the 2026 Fee Schedule. Council Consensus It was the consensus of the City Council to include a filing fee of $40 in the draft ordinance amendment for formal action later this month. The City Clerk stated that this item would be re-presented for first reading at the November 10th meeting and second reading at the November 24th meeting. 9. Administration Update The City Administrator reviewed the 2025 Strategic Plan and provided an overview of the strategic planning sessions with staff and council members. The City Administrator presented the eight core strategies that were identified to guide the organization and community into the future. These strategies form the foundation of our Strategic Plan. From those core strategies, the City Administrator shared several short-term priorities that will be the focus in the coming year. Council and staff also developed a mission statement that reflects the purpose and values behind the core strategies. Quarterly progress reports to the City Council are planned. The first report will be presented after the end of the 4th Quarter of 2025. The City Administrator reported that the 2025 City Survey has gone out to households and the results will be reviewed against the Strategic Plan. The results are anticipated to be returned in December. Once results are available, staff will review alignment with our strategies and goals and hold another strategic planning session to incorporate feedback. The survey includes primarily standard questions as prepared by the survey firm and a number of custom questions based on the strategic plan initiatives. Page 59 of 101 Page 5 of 5 10.

BACKGROUND The City Council provided first reading of Ordinance No. 19-25 at the October 27th meeting. At that time, the City Council provided direction to review the fees further. Because the fees are proposed to be changed from the time of the first reading, it is advised by the City Attorney that the updated fee schedule be presented for another first reading. As a result, the first reading is scheduled for November 10th and the second reading/adoption is scheduled for November 24th. Fees are consolidated into one schedule, which has been codified by ordinance, to be reviewed and adopted on an annual basis to provide for an efficient and timely method of reviewing and adjusting the various fees charged by the city. Staff has reviewed the fees in place to ensure their ongoing equity and cost recovery ability. The City Council conducted a public hearing on the utility rates on October 27th in accordance with City Charter Section 11.06 Notice of Public Hearing. This hearing meets the intent of the City Charter and no changes are proposed to the draft utility rates from those published in the notice. No changes to the liquor license fees are proposed and, as a result, notice has not been provided to current license holders or published regarding any amendment to the liquor license fees. Attached is the draft of Ordinance No. 19-25, Amending City Code Chapter 218, Fee Schedule with the proposed fee amendments provided for the consideration of the City Council.

BACKGROUND Ramsey County is currently reconstructing Ash Street and the I-35E Interchange, between Centerville Road and Otter Lake Road. The City acted in January of 2025 to transfer jurisdiction of the roadway to Ramsey County. Ramsey County is now proposing to convert the roadway to a County State Aid Highway. This will allow Ramsey County to use state aid proceeds for the existing interchange project. The designation does not change the function of the road and/or have any impacts to the City. Since the roadway is located within both Anoka and Ramsey County , Anoka County also must designate the portion of roadway as a County State Aid Highway. To do so the City must concur with this proposed designation. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending approval of Resolution No. 25-158. ATTACHMENTS 1. Resolution No. 25-158 2.
