INTRODUCTION
The Minnesota Government Data. Practices Act (MGDPA) gives members of the public
the right to see and have copies of public data that the City keeps. The law also controls how the
City keeps government data.
The law says that all the data the City has is public (can be seen by anybody) unless there
is a state or federal law that classifies the data as not public.
• Chapter 13 of the Minnesota Statutes, also known as the Minnesota Government
Data Practices Act (MGDPA), is the primary resource the City uses in
determining the public /not public nature of data.
• Unless there is a specific citation from the Data Practices Act or elsewhere in state
or federal law, the City presumes that the data is public.
• The requestor has the right to view all public data the City keeps.
Questions should be directed to the City Clerk's Office at 651- 982 -2406.
I. RESPONSIBLE AUTHORITY
The person who is the responsible authority and data practices compliance official under
the Act for the City of Lino Lakes is Julie Bartell, City Clerk, 600 Town Center Parkway,
Lino Lakes, Minnesota. The data practices compliance official is the city employee to
whom persons may direct questions or concerns regarding problems in obtaining access
to information. The responsible authority has designated certain other city employees to
assist in complying with the Act and these designees are noted on Exhibit 1 attached to
this report.
II. COLLECTION, STORAGE AND DISPOSITION OF GOVERNMENT DATA
A. Collection
Government data means all data created, collected, received, maintained or
disseminated by any state agency, political subdivision or statewide system
regardless of the data's physical form, storage media or conditions of use.
Government data includes all papers, cards, correspondence, discs, maps,
memoranda, microfilms, photographs, recordings, reports, tapes, writings,
computer medium and other data, information or documentary material.
Minnesota Government Data Practices Act
Guidelines & Procedures
- 3 - City of Lino Lakes
The information collected must be accurate, complete, and current for the purpose
for which it was collected. At any time a data subject may contest the accuracy
and completeness of the data.
Minnesota Statute, Chapter 13, "establishes a presumption that government data
are public and are accessible by the public for both inspection and copying unless
there is federal law, a state statute, or a temporary classification of data that
provides that certain data are not public." Minn. Stat., Section 13.01, subd 3.
B. Storage and Disposition
The City has adopted the General Records Retention Schedule for Minnesota
Cities to guide the retention and destruction of its records.
While some records must be kept for a period prescribed by law, a specific
retention period for many government records is not prescribed. Those records
may not be disposed of without the prior consent of the Records Disposition
Panel, a panel of state officials established under Minn. Stat. Section 138.17.
Unauthorized destruction of government records is a misdemeanor. Upon request,
the City Clerk will prepare a specific "Records Retention Schedule" and provide
the necessary forms for the application to dispose of government data not
included in the general retention schedule.
Each City department is responsible for keeping its records in such arrangement
and condition as to make them easily accessible for convenient use.
III. CLASSIFICATION OF GOVERNMENT DATA
A. Data on Individuals
Data on individuals is "all government data in which any individual is or can be
identified as the subject of that data, unless the appearance of the name or other
identifying data can be clearly demonstrated to be only incidental to the data and
the data are not accessed by the name or other identifying data of any individual."
"Individual" is defined as a living human being. There are three types of data on
individuals: public, private, and confidential.
i. Public Data. Public data is data on individuals that is not classified by state
statute, federal law or temporary classification as either private or
confidential. It is accessible to anyone for any reason.
ii. Private Data. Private data is any data on individuals that is not accessible to
the public, but is accessible to the subject of the data. Private data includes
data that is expressly classified as private by state statute, federal law or
temporary classification. In addition to the data subject, private data is also
accessible to the data subject's representative, individuals, entities or persons
given express written permission by the data subject, a minor's parent or
guardian, personnel within the governmental entity whose work assignments
Minnesota Government Data Practices Act
Guidelines & Procedures
- 4 - City of Lino Lakes
reasonably require access or individuals, entities or persons authorized by a
court order.
iii. Confidential Data. Confidential data is data on individuals that is not
accessible to the subject of the data or to the public. It includes data that is
expressly classified as confidential by state statute, federal law or temporary
classification.
B. Summary Data.
Summary data is statistical records and reports derived from data on individuals
but which does not identify an individual by name or any other characteristic that
could uniquely identify an individual. Summary data derived from private or
confidential data is public. The responsible authority or designee will prepare
summary data upon request, and established City charges will apply. The
responsible authority or designee should notify the requesting party about the
estimated costs.
Summary data may be prepared by "blacking out" personal identifiers, cutting out
portions of the records that contain personal identifiers, programming computers
to delete personal identifiers, or other reasonable means.
The responsible authority may ask an outside agency or person to prepare the
summary data if (1) the specific purpose is given in writing, (2) the agency or
person agrees not to disclose the private or confidential data, and (3) the
responsible authority determines that access by this outside agency or person will
not compromise the privacy of the private or confidential data.
C. Data Not on Individuals.
i. Public data not on individuals is data accessible to the public unless
otherwise classified by state or federal law or temporary classification.
H. Nonpublic data not on individuals means data which is not public but is
accessible to the subject of the data, if any. As used here, the "subject of the
data" means an individual, partnership, corporation, etc. Data not on
individuals is nonpublic if so classified by state or federal law or temporary
classification. Nonpublic data is accessible to the subject of the data, if any,
individuals, entities or persons authorized by state or federal law, personnel
within the entity whose work assignments reasonably require access, and
pursuant to a court order. However, nonpublic data may be discussed at a
meeting open to the public to the extent allowed by state statute.
iii. Protected nonpublic data not on individuals means data which is not public
and not accessible to the subject of the data. Data not on individuals is
protected nonpublic if so classified by state or federal law or temporary
Minnesota Government Data Practices Act
Guidelines & Procedures
- 5 - City of Lino Lakes
classification. Protected nonpublic data is accessible to individuals, entities or
persons authorized by state or federal law, personnel within the entity whose
work assignments reasonably require access, and pursuant to a court order.
D. Juvenile Records.
The following applies to private (not confidential) data about people under the age
of 18.
Parental Access. In addition to the people designated in this document
who may have access to private data, a parent may have access to private
information about a juvenile data subject. "Parent" means the parent or guardian
of a juvenile data subject, or individual acting as a parent or guardian in the
absence of a parent or guardian. The parent is presumed to have this right unless
the responsible authority or designee has been given evidence that there is a state
law, court order, or other legally binding document which prohibits this right.
Notice to Juvenile. Before requesting private data from juveniles, city
personnel must notify the juveniles that they may request that the information not
be given to their parent(s).
Denial of Parental Access. The responsible authority or designee may
deny parental access to private data when the juvenile requests this denial and the
responsible authority or designee determines that withholding the data would be
in the best interest of the juvenile. The request from the juvenile must be in
writing stating the reasons for the request. In determining the best interest of the
juvenile, the responsible authority or designee will consider:
• Whether the juvenile is of sufficient age and maturity to explain the
reasons and understand the consequences,
• Whether denying access may protect the juvenile from physical or
emotional harm,
• Whether there are reasonable grounds to support the juvenile's reasons,
and
• Whether the data concerns medical, dental, or other health services
provided under Minnesota Statutes. If so, the data may be released only if
failure to inform the parent would seriously jeopardize the health of the
minor
The responsible authority or designee may also deny parental access without a
request from the juvenile under Minnesota Statutes.

Format. The city is not required to provide information in any specific
format except that if the data is maintained in an electronic format and is
requested in an electronic format, then it must be provided in that medium. This
does not mean that the city will provide the data in an electronic format or
program that is different from what the city has. The city shall provide copies of
public data in electronic form upon request, if the city can reasonably make a
copy of or have a copy made of that format.
C. Fees. Fees may be charged only if the requesting person asks for a copy or in
some cases for electronic transmittal of the data. Fees will be charged according
to the following fee calculation methods with per page cost and basic hourly fee
established annually in the city fee schedule:

itself. The fee may not include time necessary to separate public from non- public
data;
• If electronic data is requested on a CD, DVD or floppy disc, an established City
fee may apply.
• The responsible authority may also charge an additional fee if the copies have
commercial value and are a substantial and discrete portion of a formula,
compilation, program, process, or system developed with significant expenditure
of public funds. This additional fee must relate to the actual development costs of
the information.
V. ACCESS TO DATA ON INDIVIDUALS

•
•
Minnesota Government Data Practices Act - 8 -
Guidelines & Procedures
City of Lino Lakes
All requests to see or copy private or confidential information must be in writing
on a data request form to document who requests and who receives this
information. The responsible authority or designee may waive the use of this
form if there is other documentation of the requesting parry's identity, the
information requested, and the City's response.
C. Identification of Requesting Party. In the case of requests for private or
confidential data, the responsible authority or designee must verify the identity of
the requesting party as a person entitled to access. This can be through personal
knowledge, presentation of written identification, comparison of the data subject's
signature on a consent form with the person's signature in City records, or other
reasonable means.
D. Time Limits.
Requests. Requests will be received and processed only during normal
business hours (Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., excluding
holidays).
Response. The response must be immediate, if possible, or within five
working days if an immediate response is not possible. The City may have an
additional five working days to respond if it notifies the requesting person that it
cannot comply within five days.
E. Fees. Fees may be charged in the same manner as for public information,
however when the subject of the data makes a request for access to data, the data
subject may not be charged for the cost of searching for and retrieving the data. A
data subject can only be charged for the actual cost of copying, certifying and
mailing the data.
VI. DENIAL OF ACCESS.
If the responsible authority or designee determines that the requested data is not
accessible to the requesting party, the responsible authority or designee must inform the
requesting party orally at the time of the request or in writing as soon after that as
possible. The responsible authority or designee must give the specific legal authority,
including statutory section, for withholding the data. The responsible authority or
designee must place an oral denial in writing upon request and include the specific legal
authority for the denial.
VII. COLLECTION OF DATA ON INDIVIDUALS.
The collection and storage of information about individuals will be limited to that
necessary for the administration and management of programs specifically authorized by
the state legislature, city council, or federal government.
-31-
Minnesota Government Data Practices Act
Guidelines & Procedures
- 9 - City of Lino Lakes
When an individual is asked to supply private or confidential information about the
individual, the City employee requesting the information must give the individual a
Tennessen warning. This warning must contain the following:
• the purpose and intended use of the requested data,
• whether the individual may refuse or is legally required to supply the requested
data,
• any known consequences from supplying or refusing to supply the information,
and
• the identity of other persons or entities authorized by state or federal law to
receive the data.
A Tennessen warning is not required when an individual is requested to supply
investigative data to a law enforcement officer.
A Tennessen warning may be on a separate form or may be incorporated into the form
which requests the private or confidential data.
VIII. CHALLENGE TO DATA ACCURACY.
An individual who is the subject of public or private data may contest the accuracy or
completeness of that data maintained by the City. The individual must notify the City's
responsible authority in writing describing the nature of the disagreement. Within 30
days, the responsible authority or designee must respond and either (1) correct the data
found to be inaccurate or incomplete and attempt to notify past recipients of inaccurate or
incomplete data, including recipients named by the individual, or (2) notify the individual
that the authority believes the data to be correct.
An individual who is dissatisfied with the responsible authority's action may appeal to
the Commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Administration, using the contested
case procedures under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 14. The responsible authority will
correct any data if so ordered by the Commissioner.
IX. DATA PROTECTION.
A. Accuracy and Currency of Data All employees will be requested, and given
appropriate forms, to provide updated personal information to the appropriate
supervisor, City Clerk, or Finance Director, which is necessary for tax, insurance,
emergency notification, and other personnel purposes. Other people who provide
private or confidential information will also be encouraged to provide updated
information when appropriate.
Department heads should periodically review forms used to collect data on
individuals to delete items that are not necessary and to clarify items that may be
ambiguous.

closed.
Private and confidential data must be kept only in City offices, except when
necessary for City business.

AGENDA ITEM 2A
STAFF ORIGINATOR AI Rolek
MEETING DATE January 28, 2008
TOPIC Consideration of Resolution 08 -12 Adopting Five -Year
Financial Plan for 2008 — 2012
Simple Majority
VOTE REQUIRED
The Lino Lakes City Charter Section 7.05 requires the annual preparation of a five -year
financial plan. The elements to be included in the plan are a Public Service Program, Revenue
Program, Capital Improvement Program and a Capital Budget. The Charter requires that a
public hearing be held on the plan and that a summary of the approved plan be published.
Staff has prepared a draft Five -Year Financial Plan for the years 2008 -2012. The plan
includes all of the required elements. The Plan first addresses the Public Service Program
and lists anticipated personnel and other resources needed to meet these needs over the
five -year term. Projections of the City's tax capacity and tax levy authority are presented
next, followed by projected revenues (Revenue Program) for the next five years. A detailed
projection of anticipated program expenditures follows. Finally, the Capital Improvement
Plan (CIP) is presented which addresses future needs in the areas of infrastructure
extension and replacement, equipment replacement and park improvements. Project
descriptions, cost estimates, financial resources and cash flow analyses are included within
the CIP, and constitute projected budgets for future capital needs.
The assumptions used in the plan are based upon both historical data and projections of
future growth and needs. In general, an inflation rate of three percent (3 %) was used in
projecting future expenditures. This percentage varies somewhat based upon what is
known about inflation of particular factors, industries, etc. Existing statutes were used to
calculate available taxing capacity and taxing authority. More detailed assumptions and
factors are listed throughout the document.
The plan has been reviewed by the City Council at several work sessions, and a public hearing
was held on January 14, 2008.
Staff recommendation is to approve Resolution 08 -12 adopting the Five -year Financial Plan for
2008 -2012.
1. Adopt Resolution 08-12.
2. Refer to Staff for further review.
3. Deny Resolution 08 -12.

preparation of a five -year financial plan, and,

Jeff Smyser
January 28, 2008
i. Second Reading: Ordinance No. 18 -07
Vacating Portions of Two Drainage and Utility
Easements, Lot 9, Block 1, Oakwood View
(135 Ash Street)
ii. Resolution 08 -01
Approving Summary of Ord. 18 -07 for Publication
ACTION: 4/5 vote on Ordinance 18 -07
4/5 vote on Resolution 08 -01
BACKGROUND
The City Council held a public hearing and approved the first reading of this ordinance
on December 10, 2007. This is the second reading.
Once adopted, all ordinances must be published in the official newspaper. However,
state statute allows the City by a 4/5 vote to publish a summary of an ordinance as long as
the summary clearly informs the public of the intent and effect of the ordinance. This
saves on publication costs. Resolution 08 -01 approves a summary of the ordinance.
The City Charter requires that all ordinances be read in full unless the reading is
dispensed with by unanimous consent of the City Council. Staff recommends dispensing
with the full reading.
ANALYSIS
The site is Lot 9, Block 1 within the Oakwood View plat. Discussion of the enabling
residence in 2004 included a two story duplex structure with a total of 7000 sf. The
current submittal is a one -story structure with a footprint of approximately 6300 sf.
Because the building itself has a larger footprint than originally envisioned, it would
encroach into the drainage and utility easement. The other easement to be vacated is in
the location of the driveway leading to the building. This was a design oversight with the
platting in 2004. The vacation of these portions of the easements will not affect the
drainage.
OPTIONS
1. Dispense with reading the ordinance in full (unanimous vote needed).
2. Approve the second reading of Ordinance No. 18 -07 approving the vacation of
portions of two easements (4/5 vote needed).
3. Approve Resolution 08 -01, approving the publication of a summary of the
ordinance (4/5 vote needed).
4. Return to staff with direction

AGENDA ITEM 6.C.
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Paul Bengtson
CC MEETING DATE: January 28, 2008
TOPIC: Continued Public Hearing
1st Reading of Ordinance 17 -07
Vacating a portion of the drainage and utility easement on
Lot 16 Block 4 of the recorded plat Park Grove
VOTE REQUIRED: 4/5
BACKGROUND
Stephen & Jacklyn Tlachac have requested that the City Council vacate a portion of the drainage
and utility easement on Lot 16 Block 4 of the recorded plat Park Grove. They are requesting that
the 30 foot easement along the south property line be reduced to allow them to make
improvements including a swimming pool and deck.
ANALYSIS
The easements as platted on the Park Grove plat included a thirty foot wide easement on the
south property line of this lot. The City Engineer has determined that only 15 feet of easement
area is necessary for the city to maintain the drainage patterns of the surrounding area in
perpetuity, and no documentation has been found to identify why the easement was platted at 30
feet in width.
The City Engineer has visited the site and met with surrounding property owners in an attempt to
address their concerns about drainage in the area. As a result, it has been identified that there is a
drainage issue in the area that is completely separate from this vacation request. This issue will
be addressed within the 2008 surface water management project, and the necessary
improvements can easily be made and maintained with the reduced easement width.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the l5' Reading of this Ordinance.

AGENDA ITEM 6.D.
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Paul Bengtson
CC MEETING DATE: January 28, 2008
TOPIC: Resolution 08 -15
Variance to allow a 429 foot side yard setback for
an existing detached accessory structure (garage)
where 5.0 feet is required.
Kenneth Muehlstedt
2221 Reiling Road
Section 5, Subdivision 2 of the City of Lino Lakes Zoning Ordinance requires that a 5-
foot side setback be provided for all accessory structures in the Rural Executive zoning
district. The property owner was notified that a portion of the structure was encroaching
on the setback. He requested a Variance in 2005, was recommended for denial by staff
and the Planning and Zoning Board, and subsequently withdrew the application before it
went to City Council. He then removed what was thought to be the offending portion of
the structure, the west five feet of the shed addition. In the fall of 2007 the neighboring
property owner again brought up the issue of the setback and it was reviewed by staff It
was at this time that the property owner was informed that the setback of the garage itself
was believed to be deficient and this application came about. The applicant has since
obtained a certificate of survey which depicts a 4.29 foot setback where 5.0 feet is
required, a deviation of 14 %. This is the only request that is being made by the property
owner at this time. The other zoning violations on both this property and the neighboring
property will be corrected when weather permits.
When the building was proposed the city did not require the submission of a survey.
Simple line drawings indicating the required setback are acceptable, as long as the
property owner can demonstrate to the building department that they do know the
location of property lines. This is done by finding property monuments that are placed in
the ground when the subdivision is platted by the developer. The rear property line is
placed on a great slope that makes identifying the position of that pin very difficult. As
such, the property owner believed to be meeting the appropriate setback, and represented
enough evidence to the building official to lead them to believe that as well. Since the
neighboring property at 2215 Reiling Road was vacant at the time, it wasn't until the lot
was developed that anyone noticed the discrepancy.
BACKGROUND
4/21/1987 A building permit was issued for a 26 -foot by 30 -foot (780 square foot) detached
accessory structure (garage) for the subject property.
? / ? ? / ? ? ?? At some point the property owner built a 10 -foot by 30 -foot (300 square foot)
addition to the rear of the garage without obtaining the proper building permits
from the city. (Permit was eventually obtained)
1/24/2003 The city received, as part of a building permit application for the adjacent
property to the west, a certificate of survey from Kurth Surveying, that depicted
the properly permitted structure and the attachment both within the five foot
setback area as required in the R -X (Rural Executive) zoning district.
4/23/2004 The City of Lino Lake's Building Department contacted the resident at 2221
Reiling Road in regards to the certificate of survey submitted for the construction
of a single family dwelling at 2215 Reiling Road. This survey depicted a portion
of the existing detached accessory structure (garage) setback 1.2 feet from the
side property line. The resident was informed that the structure would either
need to be made to meet the 5.0 feet setback, and if it were to remain in any way,
the resident would need to obtain a building permit.
9/17/2004 The City of Lino Lake's Building Department again contacted the resident at
2221 Reiling Road on September 17, 2004 to reiterate the options for the existing
detached accessory structure (garage).
11/24/2004 The Community Development Department received an application for this
Variance request to allow a 1.2 -foot side setback for a detached accessory
structure (garage) where 5.0 feet is the minimum required by the zoning
ordinance.
1/12/2005 The Planning and Zoning Board voted to recommend denial of the Variance request.
3/22/2005 Mr. Muehlstedt had a property sketch completed by Hult & Associates. This
document is attached, and clearly states that the existing property line
monuments do not match the corresponding recorded distances shown on the plat
for the Otter Lake Hills subdivision.
3/24/2005 Mr. Muehlstedt withdrew the Variance request prior to it continuing to City Council.
3/30/2005 Mr. Muehlstedt obtained a demolition permit to remove a portion of the shed
addition to bring it into conformance with the five foot setback requirement, and
obtained a building permit for the addition. Staff and the property owner both
believed that this completed enforcement on the issue and closed the case.
After this was completed the neighboring property owner requested that the city
review the structural integrity of the shed addition. It was determined that the
shed addition was not structurally sound and would need to be corrected.
8/30/2007 Structural repairs proposed by Mr. Muehlstedt were reviewed by both the City's
Building Official and a Structural Engineer and determined to be adequate.
8/31/2007 The neighboring property owner raised the issue of the setback for the original
garage, which was not believed to be encroaching into the setback area and
requested that the city enforce its ordinance.
•
• BACKGROUND (Continued)
•
9/05/2007 The City's Building Official inspected the structural repairs to the shed addition
and determined that they were completed in accordance with the previously
reviewed plans. Therefore the shed addition to the garage meets all of the city's
ordinances and is no longer an issue.
10/01/2007 The Community Development Department informed Mr. Muehlstedt that the
existing garage was believed to be closer than five feet to the property line and
that a Variance would be required to allow it to remain in its current state.
10/17/2007 Mr. Muehlstedt submitted an application for a Variance to allow the existing
structure to remain.
10/17/2007 The neighboring property owner raised the issue that Mr. Muehlstedt's fence was
actually sited over the property line.
10/23/2007 Staff requested that Mr. Muehlstedt obtain an updated survey so that the extent of
the encroachment could be clearly identified.
10/26/2007 The city's Building Official informed the City Council and City Attorney of the
review process of Mr. Muehlstedt's shed addition. This memorandum is
attached, and stafF considers this issue to be closed.
10/29/2007 Kurth Surveying issued an update to the 2004 survey of the neighboring
property. This update is hand written and states that the location of Mr.
Muehlstedt's fence was known to be encroaching when the survey was
completed, but no information as to this fact was shown on the survey at the
time. This survey indicated that the fence encroaches as much as 0.3 feet onto
the neighboring property.
11/14/2007 The neighboring property owner attended the Planning and Zoning Board
meeting to speak at open mike. They expressed concern over the delay in having
the action heard, and over the structural repairs to the shed addition that were
completed by Mr. Muehlstedt. Staff explained that an updated survey would be
the best avenue to define the Variance requests. As of September 5, 2007 the
shed addition was considered to be completely in compliance with the city's
ordinances and is therefore not an issue.
12/10/2007 Mr. Muehlstedt submitted a new certificate of survey which is the basis of this
application and review.
VARIANCE FINDINGS
In considering all requests for Variance or appeal and in taking subsequent action, the
City shall make a finding of fact:
a. That the property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used
under conditions allowed by the official controls.
Reasonable use of the garage, which was permitted, constructed, and
inspected at what was believed to be the appropriate setback; would be
eliminated if the setback was strictly enforced in this case.
b. That the plight of the landowners is due to physical circumstances unique
to his property not created by the landowner.
Due to the topography of the lot, the location of the rear property corner is
extremely difficult to ascertain and verify. At the time of the building permit
for the structure, no survey was required and the property owner believed he
was meeting the setback requirement.
c. That the hardship is not due to economic considerations alone if
reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the ordinance.
The structure was permitted, constructed, and inspected approximately twenty
years ago and was believed to meet all ordinances at the time. Since then
more thorough information has identified that the structure is encroaching
approximately 8.5 inches into the setback. While the structure could be
removed and reconstructed to meet the ordinance, the cost would be extreme
in comparison to the minor nature of the variance being requested.
d. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the applicant any
special privilege that would be denied by this ordinance to other lands,
structures, or buildings in the same district.
A 0.71 foot reduction to the side yard setback is a minor deviation from the
ordinance, and is not dissimilar to previous variances granted to existing
structures that encroached upon setbacks.
e. That the proposed actions will be in keeping with the spirit and intent of
the ordinance.
A 0.71 foot reduction to the side yard setback is a minor deviation and will not
contravene the spirit and intent of the ordinance.
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD
On January 9, 2008 the Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval
of the Variance request based on the certificate of survey and findings of fact presented
by staff
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending adopting Resolution 08 -15, approving the Variance request based

RE: Variance Application
To whom it may concern:
In 1984 the City of Lino Lakes through TKDA & Associates (TKDA) contracted out
the installation of Reiling Road to Northern Asphalt. Northern Asphalt sub-
contracted the removal of trees and the grading of the road to Dell Contracting; while
bulldozing the road, Dell Contracting removed all the front survey pins up and down
Reiling Road. I informed John Davidson of TKDA that the survey pins had been
removed and Mr. Davidson sent out a survey crew to replace the pins. At the time,
Reiling Road dead -ended at my property and only my survey pins were replaced.
In 1987 I applied for a permit to build a 26 x 30 garage; I based the placement of the
garage on TKDA's survey which at the time was well within the five -foot setback. In
1992 Reiling Road was extended west beyond my property. In 2002, Sally
Bachmeier and Lloyd Chalupsky purchased lot 10 adjacent to the west of my
property. Ms. Bachmeier and Mr. Chalupsky informed me that the northwest corner
of my garage was 6 to 8 inches off the setback; they said they didn't have a problem
with it but wanted me to be aware of it. There have been numerous disagreements
between us which resulted in Ms. Bachmeier and Mr. Chalupsky bringing legal
action against me and in turn the courts found that "the Plaintiffs' testimony lacking
in credibility ". After losing two trials and an appeal, the setback and other issues
became a problem to Ms. Bachmeier and Mr. Chalupsky.
A permit was issued for my garage and was inspected and approved by the City of
Lino Lakes building official Mr. Pete Kluegel; Mr. Kluegel based his inspections on
the same survey done by TKDA. A recent survey done by Hult & Associates (see -
attached survey) states "the plat of Otter Lake Hills does not meet the standards set
by Minnesota Statue 505 ... ". I am asking for a variance on a very small portion of
my garage that was constructed over 20 years ago (see enclosed digital
photographs).
Also enclosed you will find photos of my driveway which has also been questioned
as to the setback requirements. See enclosed survey that shows the driveway
setback at 7'1 "; the radius on the west side is closer to the property line but is in the
15' right of way.

COUNCIL MEETING DATE:

VOTE REQUIRED:
James E. Studenski, City Engineer
January 28, 2008
Resolution No. 08 -13, Concurring with the
Minnesota Department of Transportation proposal
to construct noise walls along the north side of 3 5W
between Sunset Road and Savannah Court
Simple Majority
BACKGROUND:
In July 2007 the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) contacted the City
regarding the Metro Division Highway Traffic Noise Abatement Study. MNDOT
analysis of the results of this study ranked the area north of 35W from Sunset Road to
Savannah Court, as shown on the attached map as having a high priority for noise wall
construction. The study took into account the residential density of the area, proximity to
35W and the noise impact based on readings taken in the area. This item was discussed
at the October 1, 2007 City Council Work Session meeting.
On October 29, 2007 a neighborhood meeting was held with residents from 50 properties
on the north side of 35W between Sunset Road and Savannah Court in attendance. All
the residents in attendance expressed support for the construction of a noise wall except
for Pomp's Tire, a commercial business located on Apollo Court.
The noise wall will be approximately 2,320 feet long, 20 feet high and will be made up of
large concrete posts and wood planking. To minimize tree pruning, tree removal, tree
replacement and the impact of wall construction on adjacent properties, the wall
alignment will vary form 10 to 20 feet from the right -of -way line of 35W. Noise wall
planking will be placed on the residential side of the wall when it is 10 feet from the
right -of -way line and will be placed on the 35W side in all other locations. Also attached
are the MNDOT preliminary plans for the noise wall.
MNDOT has estimated the wall cost to be approximately $835,000, which will be 100%
percent funded by the MNDOT noise abatement program. Any costs for additional noise
wall aesthetics or additional plantings will be the responsibility of the City. MNDOT and
the City have completed the preliminary phase of the noise wall design; the next step will
be a resolution authorizing MNDOT to complete plans and specifications and construct
the noise wall. The project schedule will depend on MNDOT funding with the contract
to be tentatively awarded in the either the fall of 2009 or the fall of 2010.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the approval of Resolution No. 08 -13, Concurring with the Minnesota
Department of Transportation proposal to construct noise walls along the north side of
3 5W between Sunset Road and Savannah Court.
Council Member introduced the following resolution and
moved its adoption:
CITY OF LINO LAKES
RESOLUTION NO. 08 -13
CONCURRING WITH THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION PROPOSAL TO CONSTRUCT A NOISE WALL ALONG
THE NORTH SIDE OF 35W FROM SUNSET ROAD TO SAVANNAH COURT
WHEREAS, the Minnesota Department of Transportation ( MNDOT) plans to construct a
noise wall from Sunset Road to Savannah Court as shown on the attached preliminary
plans; and
WHEREAS, in order for MNDOT to proceed with the preparation of plans, concurrence
is needed from the Lino Lakes City Council; and
WHEREAS, the majority of the property owners adjacent to the proposed noise wall
project are aware of and support the project;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA:
The City Council of the City of Lino Lakes herby concurs with the Minnesota
Department of Transportation proposal to construct a noise wall on the north
side of 35W from Sunset Road to Savannah Court.

17 Hartford Group — Economic Development Coordinator Divine introduced Frank Janes
18 and Patrick Sarver of the Hartford Group. They will discuss a proposal for a senior
19 housing project for the Legacy at Woods Edge Project. Their proposal would require
20 some adjustments to the original master plan and they want to discuss them with the
21 council. An amendment to that land use plan would be required. Graphics were
411 22 distributed.
23
24 Mr. Janes noted that they have been working with staff on elements of the Legacy at
25 Woods Edge project that they believe could move forward. He remarked that the current
26 housing market makes this a challenging time. They are proposing a couple of projects
27 they think can move forward — a senior project and a multifamily project. He noted that
28 he would review the overall project to bring the council up to date. The graphics
29 reviewed were master plan site layout, southwest development conceptual layout and
30 conceptual layout site plan.
31
32 Mr, Janes noted that original plans had the senior site in a certain area and they are
33 proposing to move it adjacent to the park. They are trying to get a viable senior project
34 and the original location would be problematic with its commercial element in today's
35 market. Closer to the park would be preferable. They propose a building with a north
36 side portion with four stories, a middle portion with a two story center concept and then a
37 south portion tapering down to Three stories, similar to a project in Maplewood. They are
38 looking at 140 -160 units comprised of independent senior housing units (age restricted
39 senior apartment with no services — 40 units) along with the addition of independent
40 senior units with some limited services. Another component would be assisted living and
41 some "care suites ". This would provide a continuum of care similar to other projects they
42 have done. There would be a combination of 1 -2 bedroom units in the independent, and
43 the independent and assisted with services would be mostly 1 bedroom. Care suites
. 44 would be more segregated to provide for more care. Community space is included — card
45 rooms, salon, movie room, often a chapel, etc. Underground parking is included for

46 residents and some employees. They would like the council comments on this project in
47 particular.
48
49 Mr. Janes explained the second project they are looking at. In between the townhome
50 piece and Lakewood Apartments, they are tentatively proposing a four- story/two story
51 market rate apartment project. This would provide an architectural component to frame
52 the roundabout. This would be limited to about 72 units due to the amount of site parking
53 feasibility.
54
55 A council member asked about how the commercial to residential ratio changes from
56 with this proposed senior component.
57
58 Mr. Janes responded that he believes there is some reduction in the commercial space and
59 he explained where some commercial would be lost. The retail market is very tight — the
60 current Lakewood building calls for 14,000 square feet of retail and currently there are no
61 tenants. The retail with the senior component will not be started. It is hoped that
62 bringing in the people with the senior project and possibly the additional rental project
63 will help in preparing the area for retail. From a master planning viewpoint, simplifying
64 the commercial plans seems to make the area more attractive to development market. It
65 would make the commercial more visible from the freeway ramp also.
66
67 The council requested that specifics on any net change should be provided as they are
68 available.
69
70 On the question of managing the senior housing, the developers explained that they
71 would move forward with development of the senior element upon city approval of the
72 plans and then work on management plans with owners and operators who specialize in
73 the area. It would be an owner and operator with experience in the field. The senior
74 housing market is good now and, based on demographics, should continue to be good.
75 The Hartford Group is experienced in the area of senior housing in general and looks
76 forward to presenting a strong proposal for financing.
77
78 The council believes that senior housing will be welcomed in the area. Even the new
79 YMCA has attracted a lot of seniors.
80
81 A council member expressed support for the senior project. One area that seems to be
82 lacking however is an opportunity for a senior living in the community to sell a house but
83 not go into rental. Concern was expressed about the addition of the apartment building
84 and how that affects the ratio of apartments and townhomes. All rental as an end product
85 is not acceptable.
86
87 Mr. Janes explained that the ratio was 60/40 — the senior and Lakewood project would
88 pretty much meet that 40 % so the addition of the apartment element would raise the
89 level. The apartments could be built with the idea that they could be a future
90 condominium conversion project. A change in the ratio is really necessary since the
91 condominium and townhouse market is completely flat.

92
93 Economic Development Coordinator Divine explained that the original development
94 agreement called for 450 homes with the 60/40 homeowner /rental but this would
95 basically reverse that to 40/60.
96
97 The two projects are brought forward separately. The senior project the developers are
98 confident they can do. They plan to ask for plan changes to facilitate development of the
99 rental building in the future. If they are asked to retain a condominium/townhome
100 project, they are doubtful that is something that could be brought forward within the next
101 24 months.
102
103 When a council member pondered the possibility of delaying the development, the
104 developers explained that it would not be wise because holding costs will remain and
105 escalate. They would like to move forward with a viable plan.
106
107 One council member expressed concern that the change in plans means the city isn't
108 getting what it was originally promised. If mixed use is not viable but was presented as a
109 selling point for the development, was it ever a good idea? Also it is disappointing to see
110 the increase in rental — that was not the original vision. There could be a shift in the
111 market sooner than later and a decision to change may be premature.
112
113 The Hartford Group representatives stated that they will be in a position to attract the
114 retail when the market makes that possible. The inclusion of retail was a part of the
115 original development plans dating back before Hartford's involvement but they still carry
116 the vision. Success for that mixed use can be created by bringing people into the area.
117
118 Another council member noted the importance of retaining a project even with some
119 changes. The senior component that is being requested is welcome.
120
121 A council member questioned how much parking is truly needed for senior housing since
122 cars become less used with a senior lifestyle. Staff explained that they do recognize that
123 nuance and generally would require less parking for senior housing. The developer has
124 experience from previous projects and feels comfortable they will be able to work with
125 city staff to get an appropriate parking ratio.
126 Community Development Director Grochala reviewed the proposed modifications in
127 detail. Staff will be working with the developers on technical issues brought about by
128 changes; staff is supportive of the senior housing component but not supportive of
129 changing some of the original plans, including all of the townhome portion. Overall it is
130 necessary to recognize and confront the market situation.
131 One council member expressed support for the inclusion of life cycle housing; it is an
132 important and growing area of the housing market.
133 The developer is hoping for a January 2008 submission requesting formal city approval
134 of the plans for the senior element.

CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION November 5, 2007
DRAFT
136 Zoning Ord. Amendment — Unsewered Residential Lot Requirement — Community
137 Development Director Grochala reviewed the proposed ordinance. The council had
138 directed staff to modify the amendment so that it would apply only to reverse mortgages,
139 however, the city attorney ruled against that suggestion. Staff has added some new
140 language that has been reviewed by the City Attorney including language that requires
141 that a structure remain on the lot to be divided. Also the city needs to receive written
142 verification of the requirements from the mortgage company. A recorded covenant must
143 be recorded restricting the owner from selling the portions separately, except in the event
144 that there is a foreclosure situation.
145 It was recommended that the proposed process should be checked with the financiers to
146 ensure this will accomplish what the city wants.
147 The council concurred that the process (referral of the ordinance to Planning and Zoning)
148 should continue.
149 2008 Budget — Finance Director Rolek noted that the council has had continuing
150 discussion about whether or not to include a change to in -house engineering services in
151 the 2008 budget. The council has not indicated a need for any additional information but
152 that their discussion of the issue would continue.
153 Since the council has a difference of opinion regarding moving on a change to in -house
154 engineering staff, a council member suggested that the decision be delayed (no in -house
155 services in 2008) but with a direction to include in the goals for 2008 a thorough analysis
156 for a discussion about inclusion in the 2009 budget.
157 Director Rolek explained that the impact to the 2008 budget of retaining the contracted
158 engineering services is negative $85,500. It is proposed that be covered by general fund
159 reserve.
160 One council member recalled (in writing) information distributed in 2003 that indicated a
161 higher amount that included an additional support position. Also the TKDA contract was
162 shown with a not -to- exceed amount.
163 Director Grochala recalled that the 2003 figures considered the community development
164 budget only and didn't take into consideration storm water, sewer and water costs that are
165 charged out. There was no pavement management or as extensive a surface water
166 management program in 2003. The support staff position has already been added so that
167 is no longer a part.
168 When asked if it would be possible for TKDA to offer a not -to- exceed cost for the 2008
169 funding year, staff indicated that would be a difficult proposal since the costs are mostly
170 reactive, dependent on work that comes forward.
171 City Engineer Studenski announced that it could be possible to get a not -to- exceed but
172 the specifics would have to be designated.
173 It was recommended by a council member that if funding for a support staff person is
174 included in one scenario, it should be included in both so that the numbers are true.
175 There was general concurrence with putting off the decision for change but also general
176 concern about the use of general fund reserve (savings) to cover the $85,500 budget
177 deficit. Could the proposed budget be further reduced to cover the deficit?

DRAFT
178 Finance Director Rolek indicated that the reserve is put forward as a possibility mainly
179 because the budget is pretty much bare bones already.
180 In looking at the 2008 budget further, a council member recognized that the changes in
181 valuations and base budget and how the city will address and meet those challenges
182 should be a part of strategic planning in the coming year.
183 Finance Director Rolek indicated that he will proceed with the budget amendment
184 previously proposed by staff if the council did not wish to approve the in -house
185 engineering proposal.
186 The council concurred that deleting the second clean-up day should be revisited in time to
187 possibly add the fall event next year.
188 2008 -2012 Five -Year Plan - Finance Director Rolek reviewed the plan, as presented. He
189 noted that the plan is truly a compilation of city department directors presenting their
190 forecasts with consideration of city goals and obligation for services considered.
191 The plan anticipates an overall increase in expenditures of 45.72% over five years.
192 Anticipated growth in the tax base related to real estate value has been revised downward
193 reflective of that market. The net overall growth in tax base included in plan is 25.29 %.
194 Therefore the plan does forecast a tax rate increase. There is a general inflation factor
195 included but also specific consideration given in some areas such as energy and insurance
196 costs. Anticipated increased staffing needs, including police that will hopefully be
197 covered by grant funds, are included. The plan is considered a guideline and it does not
198 constitute authorization for future spending.
199 The cost drivers are personnel and capital costs.
200 One council member noted the change in the personnel requirements of the previous plan
201 (last year's approval) versus this plan. He'd like more time to review the details.
202 Director Rolek noted that the growth rate is really the driving factor since the previous
203 plan estimated a growth trend. The personnel costs are really not that much different.
204 The council has a resolution in place requiring a public hearing and approval of a plan in
205 December.
206 A council member suggested that more time for analysis is needed. The tax rate increase
207 will certainly be an item of discussion.
208 A member suggested that the name of the document be changed from a "plan" to a
209 "guideline ". It was clarified that the City Charter calls for the plan by name.
210 Another member suggested that "tackling" the assumptions and how the council will deal
211 with them should be a certain item on the first strategic planning session in 2008.
212 It may be appropriate for the council to consider a different schedule of consideration
213 since the circumstances that determine plan details have changes quite drastically.
214 The estimate of valuation is a big factor; can that information be gained any sooner in the
215 regular process?
216 Director Rolek indicated that that receipt of that information is completely reliant upon
217 when it is available from the County.
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION November 5, 2007
DRAFT
218 The council concurred that taking the time to look at the plan properly is more important
219 than meeting an arbitrary deadline established by a council resolution. A special meeting
220 will probably be required and it may not be approved by the end of the year.
221 Director Rolek suggested that council could bring back questions to the next pre - council
222 meeting work session just for staff to receive them and use them to set up a larger
223 discussion.
224 It was suggested that the large increase in personnel in one year should be a matter of
225 review.
226 2008 Fee Schedule — City Clerk Bartell explained that, for efficiency and clarity, the city
227 chooses to consolidate city fees into one ordinance that is adopted on an annual basis.
228 The city's current fee schedule has been reviewed by staff and recommendations
229 submitted for updating. Changes recommended by staff include an increase in the city's
230 tobacco license fee, clarification of the city's policy and fees regarding provision of
231 public data, creation of fees associated with the city's new rental housing licensing
232 regulations, and general updates to building fees. The fee schedule, in ordinance form,
233 will be presented for first reading at the November 13 city council meeting.
234 Compensation System Audit RFP — Director Tesch noted that the draft RFP requested
235 by the council is presented for review.
236 When asked how many RFP's would be sent out, Director Tesch noted four
237 organizations.
238 Regarding pay for performance, that should be a component of the regular compensation
239 system.
240 Without major changes, this could be sent out this week. The allowed time for response
241 is 30 days.
242 The council authorized staff to issue the RFP.
243 Minnesota Gang Strike Force — Public Safety Director/Police Chief Pecchia offered a
244 verbal explanation of the task force options that the department has considered.
245 The city is eligible to participate in this strike force in the metropolitan component.
246 There is a $50,000 grant offer per year (starting in 2008) to get a handle on a gang
247 presence or activity in the community and to serve the county as a whole. While there
248 may not be recognized gang activities in the city but there is some presence and this
249 would be a way to be proactive on gang related activities.
250 The city must provide the time of an officer (paid by grant funds) and the department
251 would absorb any other related costs in their 2008 budget.
252 The Chief supports accepting the $50,000 grant and even though there is some cost to the
253 of absorbed in the 2008 budget.
254 The council authorized that the necessary paperwork be placed on a future council
255 agenda.

256 Rice Creek Watershed District Appointment — Administrator Heitke noted that this is
257 a reminder to the council that the city may chose to participate in this process. The
258 hydrological area that has an open position does contain a portion of Lino Lakes.
259 It may be good in the future to discuss with and submit a list in conjunction with other
260 cities in the district.
261 When a board representative who does live in Lino Lakes is considered for
262 reappointment, the council would like to hear from them.
263 West Oaks Sewer and Watermain Extension Petition - Engineer Studenski explained
264 that the city has received a petition from residents of the West Oaks Subdivision to
265 pursue the extension of sewer and water services. This is not an area scheduled for the
266 requested improvements or street reconstruction. Study of this request means that a
267 feasibility study would need to be prepared and since that involves a cost to the city, staff
268 requests council direction on how to proceed.
269 The council was concerned that these will be expensive improvements. Is there a way to
270 pass on the cost of the feasibility study? Also, the petition only requires fifty percent;
271 what do the rest of the residents think?
272 Getting feedback from all the residents could be an option. The engineer could send a
273 letter providing cost estimate information and other details and asking if residents would
274 be interested in paying for the feasibility study.
275 What does the submission of a petition require from the city? The city is only required
276 to accept the petition.
277 One council member suggested that there could be a meeting held at city hall providing
278 more details but the city engineer replied that there would no doubt be a low turn out so
279 that's not the best way to reach the most property owners. The suggestion was then to
280 offer the opportunity of a meeting in the previously mentioned letter.
281 The council will receive a draft letter at the December work session and can then await
282 feedback. The need for neighborhood meetings can be determined.
283 Communication Policy (Reinert, Bergeson agenda request) — The question relates to
284 establishing a policy regarding communication expectations.
285 Ideas for requests going in: shouldn't sit idle for many days (response within 24 hours
286 during the week - even a response about when a full response will be available);
287 courteous communication should be the key.
288 One suggestion is that a standardized form could be forwarded through the city clerk.
289 The city clerk could be responsible for forwarding the request to appropriate staff with an
290 estimate for response time. A copy to other council members should be a part of the
291 process.
292 One concern of the past has been excessive data requests that take huge amounts of time
293 and resources. All requests could be tracked and reported on a regular basis.
294 A council member commented that it would be a waste of time to track requests since
295 provision of public data isn't a option but a legal responsibility.
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION November 5, 2007
DRAFT
296 It was suggested that the clerk conduit could be a back up when timely responses aren't
297 received.
298 Perhaps just the addition of a standardized form would be all that is needed.
299 The council concurred that an acknowledgement to a request is always needed. Also a
300 point of closure is important that is agreed upon and understood by staff and council.
301 Every council member doesn't need to a part of each request until the end. The final
302 product should be provided to all council members.
303 Staff will come back in December with a policy proposal.
304 2008 City Council Meeting Schedule
305 Council may want to reserve it's "off Mondays" for special work sessions.
306 The schedule for budget discussions should be moved up to allow more time.
307 Review of November 13 regular meeting agenda
308 There were no changes to the council agenda.
309 The meeting was adjoumed at 9:30 p.m.
310
311 These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting

101 continuing multi jurisdictional training. Joint power agreements are already in place to back up
102 emergency plans.

CITY OF LINO LAKES
MINUTES
: January 7, 2008
. 5:30 p.m.
. 9:45 p.m.
: Councilmember Gallup,
Reinert, Stoltz and Mayor Bergeson
: Councilmember O'Donnell
Staff members present: City Administrator, Gordon Heitke; Community Development
Director, Mike Grochala; Chief of Police, Dave Pecchia (part); City Engineer, Jim
Studenski; Administration Director, Dan Tesch (part); Finance Director, Al Rolek; City
Planner, Jeff Smyser; and City Clerk, Julie Bartell
Eagle Brook Traffic Control Lighting — Administrator Heitke explained that the Police
Department and Eagle Brook Church have been working together on ways to provide
temporary lighting to increase visibility and safety of officers performing traffic control
duties for church services. The current lighting situation has been of concern to some
neighbors and one neighbor wishes to address the process for communicating changes in
operation that are initiated by the City.
Chief Pecchia confirmed that the Police Department is experimenting with lighting at
Eagle Brook entrance /exits to enhance public safety. The church has provided some
mobile lighting units that are currently being utilized. The lights have improved safety
conditions, however, Ms. Barbara Bor, an area resident has voiced concern. The
department offered to work with her on specifics to minimize the intrusion. Eagle Brook
has also made a suggestion of providing lighting that can be easily switched on or off as
needed to address the safety issue for the officers and be less intrusive to the
neighborhood. The use of reflective clothing for the officers is also being explored. The
department has also been working with MnDOT to try and gain some lighting
improvements at the intersection of Highway 35E and Main St.
A question was asked as to why proper lighting wasn't included when the project (church
facility) was approved. Community Development Director Grochala explained that
lighting was required in the original plans approved by staff. It has been determined that
some enhancement is needed because of the need to have officers directing traffic in dark
areas.
When the council asked for a timeline for solving the problem, Police Chief Pecchia
suggested that the police will report back at the next work session but will in the mean
time work with the neighbors to assist with their concerns.
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION January 7, 2008
DRAFT
45 Barbara Bor, 7707 — 20th Av N, noted that she was surprised when the temporary lights
46 rather suddenly appeared. Historically, the process for development of the church was
47 specific. Staff felt that the lighting included in the project was adequate and the church
48 project proceeded on that basis. The first season it was clear that visibility was a problem
49 and she communicated with the police department on the matter. She was told they were
50 exploring the use of flashlights or vests. She sees this as an issue that doesn't lie with the
51 church. The lighting issue was raised during discussion of the conditional use permit for
52 the property and the chief had ample opportunity to address concerns then. She is hopeful
53 that this matter can be solved with effective communication and without a "rally" of the
54 neighbors required. She did not receive the level of communication on this issue that she
55 would hope for. This is the first she's heard that the church may have an alternative.
56
57 Scott Anderson, Eagle Brook Church, noted that the church believed that they were to
58 respond to the Chief of Police when the lighting concern arose. They have followed that
59 process. It is expensive to try different methods but they are committed to finding a
60 proper solution. He wants to maintain good communication with all the neighbors
61 including Ms. Bor. He is confident that the parties involved are all committed to finding
62 that solution without the necessity of council involvement.
63
64 There was a suggestion that temporary directional signaling at the intersections may be a
65 better solution. That could take the officer out of the equation. The chief responded that
66 a signal approach has been reviewed but due in part to cost considerations it hasn't been
67 viewed as a viable approach. The signal approach could also result in an access problem
68 for some Centerville residents.
69
70 Mr. Anderson explained that the church is now considering replacement of one element
71 of the permanent lighting already in place to make those fixtures more focused on the
72 problems areas. There is no question that the portable lighting is very bright.
73
74 Ms. Bor invited council members to visit her home during Saturday evening services.
75 That would give the best perspective of the impact of this lighting.
76
77 The council concurred that portable lighting will continue to be utilized. The Police
78 Department will meet with affected neighbors, at the neighbor's convenience, to make
79 that lighting as minimally intrusive as possible.
80
81 Main Street Village Update (Azure Properties, SE1 /4 of 35E Interchange)
82 (Requested by Reinert, O'Donnell) - Community Development Director Grochala
83 explained that this project, proposed for the SE quadrant of the Main Street and Highway
84 35E interchange, is scheduled for review by the Planning and Zoning Board on January 9.
85 Historically, discussion of development of the site has been at different stages for
86 probably the past 9 years. Current discussion revolves around a formal application for
87 development that was received in May 2007. That application, and another received in
88 July of 2007, was found by city staff to be incomplete. As a courtesy, the plans were
89 preliminarily reviewed by appropriate boards. At this time a complete but changed
2

90 application is in place. The matter has been tabled by the Planning and Zoning Board
91 pending resolution of outstanding site development issues. The council is receiving the
92 Planning and Zoning Board staff report; staff is not currently recommending approval of
93 the request. However, more information has been submitted by the applicant That
94 additional information is being reviewed by staff and a supplemental report will be
95 provided for the Planning and Zoning Board meeting.
96
97 Tom Schulte and Dick Schrier, Azure Properties. They have tried to communicate with
98 elected and appointed officials. They would like to move forward with their development
99 proposal for Main Street Village as quickly as possible. They continue to be asked for
100 more information and have worked diligently to respond. They are close to providing
101 everything requested (a checklist of items) but are still getting a negative staff
102 recommendation_ Perhaps addition of conditions would be a better approach. They need
103 some type of approval to keep their end of the project on track.
104
105 When questioned if the "checklist" is complete, it was unclear if all required information
106 has been submitted. It is clear that parking questions remain and parking has proven to be
107 an important development consideration.
108
109 Council Member Reinert noted that he requested this item be added to the agenda. His
110 first discussion about this property was eight years ago and it seems that there is a
111 problem with continuing issues. He asked that staff explain what are the biggest issues
112 now?
113
114 Community Development Director Grochala explained that it is possibly a matter of
115 many smaller issues including storm water management, parking, landscaping, site access
116 issues, etc. Some of these matters may have been addressed adequately with the latest
117 submissions. Staff must ensure that all necessary questions are answered and that a solid
118 proposal is presented to the council.
119
120 Mr. Schrier stated that this has been an unusually difficult and expensive process for the
121 developer; they are asking for approval of a basic footprint. A big part of the problem is
122 that the city is requiring a plan for a larger site than what they actually want to develop.
123
124 Staff is committed to reviewing the information submitted to this point. When plans are
125 changed, however, that can slow the process overall. The Planning and Zoning Board
126 will make a recommendation based on the information staff can provide.
127
128 A council member commented that it isn't appropriate for the council to do the work of
129 the advisory boards, where the project still stands. The question of the extent of the
130 questions unanswered cannot truly be answered. Getting the project through the process
131 appropriately is the priority but staff should move the process as best they are able.
132
133 Mr. Shutte suggested that they believe they are within three or four remaining issues and
134 it is their hope that they could get a conditional approval.

136 Staff added that there is a statutory deadline (March 1) for agency action.
137
138 West Oaks Survey — City Engineer Studensld recalled that the city received a petition
139 requesting extension of sanitary sewer and water from some residents of the West Oak
140 subdivision. As a result the city sent a questionnaire to the residents outlining process
141 and related costs. Engineer Studenski distributed written information with the most
142 recent results of the resident survey. For the 85 properties who received surveys, 40
143 questionnaires were returned. Those responding in opposition to the project were in the
144 range of 70 %. Staff is recommending that the results of the survey be provided to the
145 residents along with a statement that there will be no further action taken due to lack of
146 interest.
147
148 The council concurred with the staff recommendation.
149
150 Traffic Noise Abatement Study - 35W Noise Wall — City Engineer Studenski updated
151 the council on the proposed 35W (Sunset Road to Savannah Court) noisewall project.
152 The area was ranked high under MnDOT noise abatement standards and, with local
153 support, wall could be erected with full funding from the state. A neighborhood meeting
154 on the project was held and area residents have voiced impressive support for the wall.
155 He reviewed how the wall would be placed and constructed. Construction would most
156 like occur in 2009 but MnDOT requests a resolution now indicating the city's position on
157 the wall.
158
159 The council requested that staff prepare a resolution in support of the noise wall project.
160
161 Advisory Board Appointment Process - Administration Director Tesch explained that
162 the deadline for receipt of applications was extended in the hopes of receiving more
163 applications. He reviewed the openings and requests for reappointment.
164
165 There was council concensus on reappointment of Vern Reinert to the Circle Pines Gas
166 Utility.
167
168 The new deadline is January 14, 2008. Interview dates will be conveyed to the council
169 when established.
170
171 Director Tesch also noted that the council will be considering their annual
172 appointments /designations at the January 14, 2008 council meeting. The council made
173 the following recommendations:
174 Acting Mayor — Gallup
175 North Metro Telecommunications Commission — Stoltz

181 Regarding city depositories, there was some interest in keeping that an open process for
182 financial institutions. Also, there was interest in having staff make a recommendation
183 for the additions to the labor services and fiscal agent categories. Staff will return with
184 options in the future.
185
186 Compensation Audit RFP's — Administration Director Tesch reported on the results of
187 the RFP that was sent to several companies for the services of a personnel related audit.
188 One proposal was received, from Springsted, Inc. They have prepared a list of audit
189 categories each with a price tag attached. This would be for audit services only. Director
190 Tesch recommended that the council could use the list, at a minimum, to develop a
191 compensation philosophy. A review of how the city has used market based information
192 and updating pay equity status would also be recommended.
193
194 The council reviewed the various components of the proposal, considering whether or not
195 the city should proceed with any or all of them.
196
197 Support was expressed by one council member for most of the elements. There would
198 not seem to be as much cost value in looking at position descriptions because they are
199 reported to be up to date.
200
201 Director Tesch explained that the job descriptions are used in the performance evaluation
202 system in place. That may be a consideration in that area.
203
204 It was expressed by one council member that the current performance review system isn't
205 appropriate. The process that is done internally isn't as familiar to the council as the
206 element that they actually participate in so more information to the council on that
207 process may be appropriate. Pay for performance continues to be a goal.
208
209 The matter will continue to be discussed by the council.
210
211 Director Tesch suggested that if the council is interested in the entire audit, it may be
212 appropriate to look at phasing the elements within and past this year.
213
214 The council concurred that absent Council Member O'Donnell should have an
215 opportunity to review the proposal.
216
217 Administrator Heitke asked how the equity question fits into the need for negotiations
218 under way and Director Tesch indicated that it is not urgent but he will review the
219 situation.
220
221 Snowmobile /ATV Ordinance - Police Chief Pecchia reported that, as directed, the
222 police department conferred with the city attorney on the possibility of amending the new
223 Snowmobile /ATV ordinance to allow for exemptions based on concerns from residents.
224 The city attorney is recommending against exemptions as it would hinder enforcement

DRAFT
225 activities and would be counter to the intent of the regulations. One of the requests
226 related to use of a county road and that would not require an exemption since the city
227 ordinance doesn't apply to county roads.
228
229 Police Department Administrative Staffing — Chief Pecchia explained that with the
230 opening of the Office Manager position within the police department, he see an
231 opportunity to make some positive staffing changes. The department currently has a 3/4
232 time volunteer coordinator and that person has worked to coordinate many hours of
233 volunteer services from the community. The department would like to continue to
234 enhance volunteer activities, a practice that can free officers for more direct service duty
235 and less time on such things as paperwork The department is proposing that the
236 volunteer coordinator position be advanced to a command position and that all volunteer
237 administration duties be moved to that area. The chief is also interested in enhancing
238 one clerical position to a technical level to handle some of the duties of the former office
239 manager position. He would also like to add two additional community service officers
240 — college students who are working on degrees in the area of law enforcement; a program
241 that also serves as an area of recruitment for the department. Staff anticipates thiq overall
242 change will be a budget reduction. The proposal is being presented in theory to the
243 council; human resource staff would be responsible for actual position establishment, etc.
244 The department needs to position itself for growth in the future and to deliver the highest
245 level of services for the least cost. The volunteer coordinator position is currently filled
246 by Karen Anderson, an active member of the community and experienced coordinator.
247
248 A council member requested that the proposal be put into writing (Chief Pecchia's
249 presentation was oral).
250
251 A council member noted experience in volunteer coordination and lauded the benefit of
252 having a good program in place.
253
254 Administrator Heitke noted that this would be a departure from the norm, with movement
255 of a civilian position into the command side of the department. There should perhaps be
256 a review of what that change looks like. The council will be anticipating a new job
257 description that they can review.
258
259 Chief Pecchia explained that if neither he nor the department captain were available, this
260 position would be third in line for a communications role but not operational. The goal is
261 for that situation to never occur since the chief and captain do not schedule time away at
262 the same time. He does not anticipate a problem with authority since the department
263 members are well accustomed to working hand in hand with the volunteer elements
264 already included in the department.
265
266 The council will receive a written proposal including a projected budget impact.
267
268 Process, Timeline for Reviewing Substitute Charter Amendment — City Clerk Bartell
269 gave a brief history of the amendment process to date. The council received a report from

CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION January 7, 2008
DRAFT
270 The Citizens Task Force To Review Charter Provisions Pertaining to Local
271 Improvements and, as a result, conveyed a charter amendment proposal to the Charter
272 Commission. The Charter Commission elected to draft a substitute amendment which
273 the council has officially received. The council currently has two charter amendments
274 before them and the state statutes establish options for action. The council may send one
275 of the amendments to a ballot (special or general election). The council could also
276 consider approving an amendment by unanimous affirmative vote (this option would
277 apply to the substitute amendment only). Key days for placement on the ballot were
278 reviewed.
279
280 Administrator Heitke reviewed a proposed general schedule that would allow the council
281 to review the substitute charter amendment, with adequate time to pursue all options
282 including the lengthiest option of proposing a new amendment that would again require
283 charter commission review.
284
285 Community Development Director Grochala explained that the major difference with the
286 charter proposal is that the process for neighborhood involvement is cumbersome. A
287 feasibility study is done proposing possible improvements, elements are broken down
288 including assessments, residents get that information and make choices for
289 improvements, and whatever projects get the most votes would dictate what would be
290 done. There are concerns about how design can be accomplished, how you can separate
291 elements, etc.
292
293 Administrator Heitke is recommending a technical review of the charter commission
294 proposal.
295
296 The council concurred with the proposal to proceed with a technical review and will
297 expect a report on the February work session agenda.
298
299 Professional Services RFP's — Administrator Heitke noted the council hag discussed
300 seeking proposals for on going professional services, including legal services. The matter
301 was purposefully held off for various noted reasons including projects underway and the
302 need for continuity. He is proposing now, however, that an RFP process could now
303 begin. He is not recommending looking at an RFP for all services at one time because it
304 can be a time consuming process for both staff and council.
305
306 There was discussion about legal services, past and present.
307
308 The council concurred on releasing an RFP for legal services. As noted in the previous
309 discussion regarding annual appointments that include designation of certain service
310 providers, it was confirmed that staff under direction to provide options to look at options
311 for labor and fiscal services.
312
313 Data Request Policy — City Clerk Bartell explained that the council has discussed the
314 establishment of a formal communication policy as it relates to data requests from council

DRAFT
315 members. As a part of reviewing that process, it became evident that including an update
316 of the city's guidelines and procedures for all data practices would be an appropriate
317 addition to the scope of the project. The city has been operating under basic data
318 practices but a formal document would bring procedures and guidelines into one
319 document and formalize our compliance with legal requirements. The City of Lino Lakes
320 Guidelines and Procedures for the Minnesota Government Data Practice Act was
321 reviewed. The council was alerted to those areas concerning response time and fees.
322
323 Administrator Heitke reviewed Section X of the document regarding communication with
324 council members. The language puts into place a formal procedure for responding to data
325 requests from council members.
326
327 The council will consider formal adoption of the document when requested by staff.
328
329 Minutes of Nov. 5, 2007 work session — City Clerk Bartell noted that these minutes were
330 held from approval due to concern about missing discussion. The minutes were revised

332
333 The minutes will be added to the January 14, 2008 council agenda for consideration of

69 When asked how the sealcoating and overlay projects are selected, Finance Director Rolek
70 explained that the city currently has $385,000 earmarked for those improvements, to be
71 increased by 5% per year. The sealcoating is a revolving process, taking an area of streets and
72 redoing them every 5 -6 years.
73
74 City Engineer Studenski explained that the City's Pavement Management Plan rates the city's
75 streets. Rating for sealcoating is included. When a roadway reaches an age when sealcoating is
76 no longer feasible, overlay is recommended. The usable life of the street is extended
77 substantially by the program.
78
79 When asked to explain the status of the bond rating, Finance Director Rolek noted that the City
80 has been fortunate to be upgraded several times over the past few years. The current Moody's
81 rating is AA3. The ratings are based on the city' credit worthiness and an upgrade improves the
82 cities finance cost situation.
83
84 When asked how the town square development appears in the Five Year Plan, Finance Director
85 Rolek explained that the Town Center project has slowed as have construction projects
86 nationwide. Staff continues to look to tax increment from the development to help finance
87 certain projects including the Lake Drive/I35 Interchange project as well as the city's
88 contribution to the YMCA project. Once those obligations are met, the value of the increment
89 will benefit the city's general fund.
