DATE 3 FEBRUARY 1998 SUBJECT ORDINANCE 29 -97, REPLACING SECTION 207 OF THE CITY CODE BACKGROUND This ordinance had its first reading in October of 1997. I would like the council to proceed with the second reading on Monday evening. Ordinance 29 -97 would replace Section 207 of the city code, the section dealing with the city's personnel policies. Basic elements of human resource management would remain in the city code. Ordinance 29 -97 is based upon consultation with other municipalities including Minnetonka and Shoreview. The city of Minnetonka's attorney is Desyl Peterson, an "expert" in data practices. The city is in the process of updating many of the benefits we provide to our employees. Having our personnel policy in ordinance form causes those changes to be cumbersome and time consuming, ie. two readings, publication and a 30 day waiting period. The city attorney has been consulted and concurs with this proposal. Any changes and/or enhancements to our personnel policy would still require council approval, would be adopted or changed by resolution, and effective immediately. OPTIONS 1. Approve Ordinance 29 -97 2. Deny Ordinance 29 -97 RECOMMENDATION Option 1 Council Member adoption: introduced the following ordinance and moved its CITY OF LINO LAKES ORDINANCE NO. 29-97 AN ORDINANCE REPEALING SECTION 207 OF THE CITY CODE AND REPLACING IT WITH THE FOLLOWING: 207.01 Appointments.

The provisions of this section requiring indemnification do not apply in cases of intentional tort, malfeasance in office, or willful or wanton negligence. In those cases, the city council may indemnify the officer or employee if it finds such action to be in the public interest. Indemnification under this paragraph is subject to the liability limits imposed by MN Stat. 466.05 and any other relevant statutes. 207.07 Prohibitions.

The data to be provided must only be about finalists for city positions of employment. The city administrator or designee must obtain the consent of the finalists before requesting the data, but an applicant's failure to provide consent may disqualify the applicant from the prospective position.

This greenway project addresses the citizens' desire for water quality, and wildlife protection and enhancement efforts, as well as establishing trails of significance. The concerns of our residents for a sustainable environment in relation to development and growth is of primary importance. Water quality issues in our streams soon become water quality issues in our lakes. The greenway will help to provide the buffering needed to sustain the water and wildlife resources. The Rice Creek Chain of Lakes provide esthetics and leisure to all those who live in the area. This is also an opportunity to provide an opportunity to develop a trail link within the greenway between the Hardwood Creek State Trail in Hugo and the Rice Creek Regional Park Trails in Lino Lakes. This trail would have regional significance. In waiting one year, and due to development, we have lost some significant opportunity to locate this greenway along Clearwater Creek through Centerville. The City of Lino Lakes will act as a cooperating agency for this project by providing planning, engineering, and dollars for land acquisition, and greenway construction. We are hopeful that we receive a favorable review from the LCMR on this proposal. Thank you for this consideration.

Our department strongly urges the LCMR to consider the Clearwater Creek Greenway Corridor Project for funding. This project will provide for at least two goals our department is trying to achieve: 1) Improvement of the Clearwater Creek and adjacent lakes water quality. These improvements will ultimately enhance fish and wildlife habitat at our 2,500 acre Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve, and improve the recreational usefulness of Centerviller Lake for fishing and swimming. 2) Establish a greenway corridor that will connect regional park facilities through a trails network. The Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve would have a connection link to Bald Eagle Regional Park and to the Hardwood Creek State Trail through this project. In addition, the trail would link to the proposed establishment of approximately 6.5 miles of trails in the park reserve ending southernly at the Ramsey County border. This park development is proposed as a part of two bonding bills currently before the legislature. As you are aware, a major goal for the Metropolitan Council Park and Open Space System is the establishment of a regional trail system connecting regional parks throughout the metropolitan area. The Clearwater Creek Trail would represent a major component in that system.

It drains an approximate 50- square- mile area spanning eleven municipalities, serves as an outlet for White Bear and Bald Eagle Lakes. and discharges to the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes via Peltier Lake. The Greenway Corridor Project is a critical element in achieving many of the District's objectives for this portion of the watershed, including improvement of creek and lake water quality, prevention of flooding and erosion, preservation of wetlands and floodplain, and protection/enhancement of fish and wildlife habitat and recreational opportunities. RCWD will act as a cooperating agency for this project by providing hydrologic engineering support as needed to the involved municipalities. The District also has a Capital Improvement planned for this corridor which will result in controlling peak discharges while increasing the low flow capacity of the creek system in order to recover live storage. We believe that this project fits a number of the LCMR's funding strategies extremely well and are hopeful that 't will receive a favorable review.

This would increase the benefit from $2400 per year of service to $3000 per year of service. The attached documents have been presented to the Fire District Steering Committee and they have approved the increase to be forwarded to the city council for their approval. The actual motion contained a stipulation that the cities contribution would not exceed planned amounts. OPTIONS Approve a motion to increase the firefighter pension to $3000 per year of service with the condition that the cities will not increase their contribution above the planned amounts. Deny the pension increase. RECOMMENDATION Approve the motion. Proposed 1998 Firefighter Pension Increase There is a pension plan for the members of the Centennial Fire District that is funded by monies from the state of Minnesota, the cities, and investment earnings. The money from the state, which is a percentage of fire insurance paid into the state, accounts for about 30 percent of the income. The money from the cities, which is a budget item for the Centennial Fire District, accounts for about 11 percent of the income. The remaining 59 percent are earnings on investments. In 1996, the fund had enough money in the fund to increase the pension amount to $2400 per year of service for the firefighters. At that time, even with the increase, there was some over - funding. At the present time there is sufficient funding to support an increase to $3000 per year of service, still leaving some over - funding. When a pension increase is requested, we always look to see how Centennial Fire compares to the communities around us. There are charts attached that compare pension levels, city contribution, state aid received, and runs per year. The proposed increase would put us fourth in pension level, sixth in city contribution, fourth in state aid received, and second in run volume. There are also projections attached for the years up to 2001. These projections are all very conservative figures. The income is projected low and the obligation is on the high side. These projections show that even with the benefit increase we will not use up the unused amount by the end of the projection period. The earnings on these charts are projected at the rate of 5 percent. A chart is attached to show our investment earnings history over the last five years. It has been an average of 13.1 percent earnings. The state requires the relief association to project the future at a 5 percent earnings rate and include this in an annual funding formula to determine the cities contribution. Using this formula, there would be a required increase in city funding. However, any actual earnings over 6.25 percent would eliminate any increased funding. The members of the department fully understand that the cities are not going to increase the amount of the cities contributions above the planned contributions. If there ended up being a shortfall in the future, the benefits could be effected negatively. The board of directors for the relief association feel that the fund will have sufficient income to support the increase. The request to the steering committee is that you approve the increase with the understanding that the cities contribution will not exceed the planned amounts.

CERTIFICATION I hereby certify that the above is a correct copy of a resolution duly passed, adopted and approved by the City Council on February 9, 1998. Marilyn G. Anderson, Clerk- Treasurer AGENDA ITEM 8B STAFF ORIGINATOR: David Ahrens, City Engineer /Public Works Director DATE: February 9, 1998 TOPIC: Consideration of Professional Services Agreement with BRW, Inc. BACKGROUND: Staff is requesting Council authorization to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with BRW, Inc. BRW, Inc., is a multi- discipline engineering firm providing civil engineering, environmental engineering, planning, and other professional services. Staff has personal experience with both the municipal and environmental engineering groups and has found them to be exceptional. The City currently has a Professional Services Agreement with three engineering firms (OSM, Inc., SEH, Inc., and TKDA, Inc.) with each providing excellent service to the City. However, at times the amount of work or nature of the work makes the addition of a fourth engineering firm desirable. BRW, Inc., has completed previous work for the City, including wetland delineation reports for the Village site and the Clearwater Creek Business Area and the Street Reconstruction Program Report. The Street Reconstruction Program Report was the basis to selecting the Lakes Addition neighborhood for street reconstruction. In addition, BRW, Inc., is planned to prepare the Inflow and Infiltration Study this year. OPTIONS: 1. Return to staff for additional information. 2. Not enter into the Professional Services Agreement with BRW, Inc. 3. Adopt the following recommended motion: Authorize and direct the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Professional Services Agreement with BRW, Inc. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council adopt the above recommended motion authorizing the City to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with BRW, Inc. M E M O R A N D U M DATE: February 3, 1998 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Mary Kay Wyland RE: R -BR Zoning District/Advertising Signs CC: Brian Wessel Staff has been asked by Mr. Mike Cronin, representing Universal Outdoor Inc., to seek support from the City Council for the attached resolution. This resolution basically outlines the provisions of the existing City Sign Ordinance which allows advertising signs in the R -BR Zoning District by Conditional Use. It also reiterates the purpose of the R -BR Zoning District as a "future" commercial district. The purpose for this resolution is to highlight the provisions of the sign ordinance and conditional uses in the R -BR Zoning District for use by Universal Outdoor Inc., and any other sign company, in their petition to MnDOT for issuance of a permit for an Advertising sign along 35 E in this R -BR Zoning District. Current procedure requires issuance of a MnDOT permit prior to review of a Conditional Use Permit to allow an advertising sign in the R -BR Zoning District. MnDOT has stated that in their opinion, the R -BR Zoning District is an agricultural district and therefore, not appropriate for advertising signs according to the Federal "Highway Beautification" Regulations. Those regulations state that advertising signs are allowed in commercial and industrial zoning districts only. Our City Ordinance, however, prohibits advertising signs in all but the R -BR Zoning District. Additionally, the City's EDAAB, Planning & Zoning Board, and City Council, have all previously determined, via adoption of the existing Sign Ordinance, that advertising signs are allowed in the R -BR Zoning Distrist by conditional use. Requested Action: 1. Place this item on a future (Feb. 23) Council Agenda for action supporting the attached resolution. 2.

Controlling and limiting urban sprawl. b. Conserving land in a viable economic status until such time as the need is present, as defined by the conditions of the trigger mechanism, for commercial or industrial development. c. Reducing the possibility of rural -urban conflict in both the use of the land and in the extension of utilities and other infrastructure items. d. Maintaining acceptable per - captia costs for city services such as snow- plowing, road maintenance, and fire and police protection, and WHEREAS, the benefits to the present and future owners of property in this unique district are the certainty their plans for commercial or industrial development will be permitted as the ultimate development in this district, the public commitment to the owners defining a clear and predictable process for the staging of ultimate development in the district (the Trigger Mechanism), and the City's commitment to permit compatible and economically viable uses within the district until that time the conditions of the Trigger Mechanism are met for the ultimate development of the district, and WHEREAS, as part of the City's comprehensive study and amendment of its sign regulations completed in 1997, the City determined Advertising signs would be a compatible and contributing use in the R -BR districts under the specific restrictions for the location, size and density provided in the regulations, and WHEREAS, landowners seeking to establish advertising signs on their property in the R -BR district have been informed the Minnesota Department of Transportation does not find the R -BR zoning district to be a commercial or industrial zoning district, and therefore has denied the necessary MNDOT permit needed in addition to the City permit for use of property in the R -BR district for advertising signs, frustrating the City's intent to permit advertising signs in this district to further the orderly and equitable implementation of the district, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LINO LAKES, the R -BR zoning district is intended to be and is in fact a district for commercial and industrial use, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, in the decision of the City to permit advertising signs in the R -BR district, and solely in the R -BR district, it was our intent to provide this limited viable economic business use compatible with the purpose and intent of the R -BR district and contributing to and supporting the use of the Trigger Mechanism to ensure the benefits of containing and limiting urban sprawl, not requiring extension of utilities or other infrastructure items, and having no impact on the cost of services by the City, and, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the City requests MNDOT approve requested permits for advertising signs in the R -BR district that meet all City and MNDOT standards and regulations. MICHAEL CRONIN & ASSOCIATES September 16, 1997 Mr. Michael Constant Minnesota Department of Transportation 1500 West County B2 Roseville, MN 55113 Dear Mr. Constant, On behalf of Universal Outdoor, Inc. I respectfully request the opportunity to meet with you and your staff to encourage the Department to reconsider its finding the "R -BR' Rural- Business Reserve zoning district in the City of Lino Lakes is not a an area "zoned for business, industrial, or commercial activities" by the City. We request your reconsideration of this finding on two technical points, and one strategic point. 1. Structure of the Lino Lakes zoning code The Lino Lakes zoning code, table of contents, page ii attached, has nineteen distinct zoning districts. Nine of the districts are residential, six, including the R -BR, are business, two are industrial, one permits a planned custom overlay above the underlying district, and one is for public and semi public uses. If the City did not intend for business use to occur in R -BR area, it could have chosen one of its nine residential districts to be applied to this area. This was the choice made along a large part of 35W, and we have no contention this area of the City was ever intended as business area. The City did however make a very different choice for some of the property adjacent to 35E, placing it in the Rural Business Reserve district. We believe the City has carefully and consciously chosen to designate the selected area along 35E as a business, not a residential area, and request MNDOT respect their authority to make this designation. 2. Comprehensive Plan designation Underlying every zoning designation is a Comprehensive Plan designation. The Land Use Plan for the City of Lino Lakes, copy enclosed, designates the area zoned R -BR along 35E as "Business Reserve ". I believe this reinforces the City's intent to have the Mr. Michael Constant September 16, 1997 Page Two R -BR district, which is coterminous with the Business Reserve area designated on the City's Comprehensive Plan, a business area. 3. City Strategy The City has adopted a careful phasing strategy to both ensure the R -BR district is developed for business use, and to ensure the business development, when it occurs, is done in an efficient and prescribed sequence. This two level strategy to ensure a diverse and balanced community at some time in the future places great and continuing restrictions on the present permitted use and marketability, and therefore value, of the properties in the R -BR district. Recognizing the effect of the present restrictions, and the importance the City has assigned to eventual business development of the area in the R -BR district, we believe the City as it recently (July 1997) adopted a comprehensive amendment to its sign regulations identified the R -BR district as the only zoning district in the City where advertising signs would be allowed. The visibility of the advertising signs now will mark this district as a business district, and the income from the signs will provide a slight offset for the restrictions on development imposed by the City's strategy for use of this area. Again, we request the Department respect the municipality's designation of the R -BR district as a business area appropriate for the location of advertising signs. Mike, as always we appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to better understand MNDOT's concerns in this area, and to allow us to expand on our understanding of the situation. I will be calling to arrange a time we can meet to discuss this. Thanks Michael Cronin cc: Mr. Chris McCarver Universal Outdoor, Inc. MN/DOT W.E.

Residents of this district can expect to fully use the land for farming, grazing, animal husbandry, propagation of nursery stock, gardening, and other traditional rural uses. In addition, the district is meant to prevent incursion of those land uses that would adversely affect or diminish the rural character of the land. In particular subdivisions of land for residential purposes as well as commercial and industrial uses without access to suitable infrastructure is not to be permitted. This district is also meant to serve the following functions: - To control and limit urban sprawl. - To conserve land in a viable economic status until such time as the need is present for rezoning to a businessitse district, (Emphasis Added) - To reduce the possibility of rural -urban conflict in both the use of the Iand and in the extension of utilities and other infrastructure items. - To maintain acceptable per- capita costs for city services such as snowplowing, road maintenance, and fire and police protection.

ADO t 47 t3 1 ity of Lino Lakes Residential Survey uality of Life Rating: A strong ninety -three percent rated the quality of life in Lino Lakes as "excellent" or "good;" only seven percent rated it lower. This rating placed the community within the top quartile across the Metropolitan Area. When asked to recall what factors were most important in their decision to settle in Lino Lakes, twenty-eight percent pointed to the rural nature of the area and its open spaces. Convenient location was mentioned by nineteen percent, while good schools were key to eighteen percent. Thirteen percent viewed the housing stock as key. Strong neighborhood were critical to six percent, and four percent mentioned the peacefulness and quiet of the community. 2 Like Most and Least about the Community: Rural ambience and openness was the most liked feature of the city. At twenty-six percent it far outdistanced all.other responses. Convenient location ranked next highest at seventeen percent. Quiet and peacefulness, followed by good schools, ranked next, at twelve percent and eleven percent, respectively. Strong neighborhoods and "nice people" followed, at eight and seven percent, respectively. Smaller numbers mentioned feeling safe, housing stock, clean environment, parks and recreational opportunities, and small town ambience. Examining things liked least, two factors dominated everything else: high taxes was cited by twenty -three percent, while overpopulation and high growth was posted by twenty-one percent. City government and shopping_ opportunities ranked next, at nine percent and seven percent each. City services were a complaint by five percent. Smaller numbers pointed to crime, traffic congestion, overcrowded schools, poor location, and road conditions. But, it was also noteworthy that thirteen percent reported there was " nothing" they disliked about the community; this "booster" segment was well above the Metropolitan Area norm. The trade -offs between the pace of development, rural ambience and open space, high taxes, and high quality schools comprise the four corners of the "rectangle of controversy." Balancing these concerns will be the chief challenge for decision - makers during the next five years. Most Serious Issue Facing the City: Overpopulation and high growth rate was cited by forty-one percent as the most serious issue facing the City of Lino Lakes today. High taxes followed next at twenty-two percent. Crime and overcrowded schools were pointed to by eight percent and seven percent, respectively. Smaller numbers cited city government, city services, and the condition of roads. While high growth rate frDRL City of Lino Lakes Residential Survey 3 overpopulation was the paramount issue, high taxes were also a key concern about the future. Direction of the Community: A solid seventy -nine percent felt the City of Lino Lakes was generally headed in the right direction; fifteen percent, though, thought it was headed off on the wrong track. Critics pointed to overcrowding and a perceived lack of planning. In comparison with other high growth communities, this rating was exceptionally strong. Ninety -five percent rated the general appearance of their neighborhood as "excellent" or "good," while only five percent saw it as "only fair." Again, this is an exceptionally positive result overall, but the "excellent" rating -- at forty-three percent -- was somewhat lower than the Metropolitan Area norm. Sense of the Community: Seventy -two percent rated the general sense of community among Lino Lakes residents as "very strong" or "somewhat strong." Twenty -four percent saw it as "not too strong" or "not at all strong." This level of perceived strength was above the suburban norm. While forty-one percent felt most closely connected to their school district, a very solid thirty- seven percent indicated their strongest tie was with the City of Lino Lakes. Fifteen percent admitted a stronger tie to another community, while five percent reported developing no ties at all. Recreational Opportunities: Seventy -six percent rated the park and recreational facilities in Lino Lakes as "excellent" or "good." Twenty -one percent, though, saw them as "only fair" or "poor." This rating was ten percent lower than the Metropolitan Area suburban norm. Similarly, on the upkeep and maintenance of Lino Lakes City Parks, seventy -seven percent were positive while eighteen percent were more negative. In assessing recreational facilities they regularly left the community to use, two facilities stood out: trails and parks in other communities and the Shoreview Community Center. Residents were asked to evaluate three potential .recreational offerings which could be developed in the city. In each case, a substantial majority favored the proposal in concept. By a sixty -two percent to thirty-two percent judgment, residents favored the construction of an outdoor athletics complex. By a sixty -four percent to twenty -nine percent verdict, residents supported the n'DRL Executive Summary Communication. Community. Balance. In late 1994, the Lino Lakes City Council asked citizens to participate in 20/20 Vision - a series of work groups designed to consider the City's future, and make recommendations to Council and City Staff about how to make that future happen. The visioning process began in January 1995. Two hundred fifty citizens participated in Community Forums and identified major areas of concern for the community, as they envisioned Lino Lakes in the year 2020. Five Advisory Groups made up of 50 citizens were formed around these issues. Balanced growth, which became Growth Planning, was far and away the primary concern of the community. It became the responsibility of this Advisory Group to define "balance ", and advise the City on how to reach it. Additional Advisory Groups for Environment, Commercial Development, Parks, and Education rounded out the priorities identified by citizens. These groups met from mid -March through the beginning of June. They clarified the purpose of their groups, and then got down to business. Group members worked on a consensus basis -- "I can live with that," finding the common ground amid the diversity of personal opinions and interests. By using a consensus approach, they were able to represent the desires of a broad spectrum of the community. This document is the result of those weeks of study. It is written with "one voice" - the collaborative voice of the community. The citizens are speaking to the City Government, not to department heads, individual employees or Advisory Boards. They are asking for a shift in the direction for the City. I This visioning process is only one piece of a complete planning process. That process begins with a vision. The vision is reviewed by City Staff, and becomes the basis of individual department plans, budgets, and individual work plans. With a periodic review, plans can be 1 updated so that the focus is still on the goal even when external factors change the path the City will take. This vision and individual recommendations are intended to be that flexible. A steering committee, the "Citizens' Advisory Group ", has been formed to maintain the communication and understanding between citizens and city government. This group will meet periodically to review the implementation of these recommendations, and continue to work with City Council and City Staff to ensure a common understanding of these recommendations and the ability of the City to implement them. As one of the citizens stated, "Careful planning can produce the kind of city we as citizens desire ". The first step in careful planning, according to Carl Neu, is to "picture the future that you want and then decide how to get there ". With this document, the City of Lino Lakes is well on track to `getting there'. 111 III. Growth Plan Vision: We envision a growth plan with a flexible, planned rate of growth. The plan will control the type and quality of growth in a manner that will ultimately provide the benefits of suburban development (available commercial services, broadened tax base, city services) and yet still preserve the character of Lino Lakes (environment, open spaces, rural ambiance). This growth plan will carefully consider the balance of costs, infrastructure and benefits. A. Plan Recommendation 1: Review and revise City planning documents so that they benefit the whole of the community and address a healthy mix of residential /commercial/industrial development and environmental preservation. 1) Growth and development decisions should consider the needs of the entire community and attempt to distribute equally throughout the city the benefits and burdens of future growth decisions. 2) Growth and development decisions should create a broadened tax base that supports the infrastructure needs while minimizing additional burden on residential taxpayers. Examples of "infrastructure ": Road construction, maintenance and reconstruction; schools with appropriate funding so as to eliminate overcrowding by new residential developments; park and trail development; appropriately funded police and fire services; and avoided loss of unique environmental assets. 3) Growth and development decisions should strive to reach and maintain an appropriate balance of commercial, industrial and residential development. The desired balance should be identified in the City's ing documents by t in b romotion or restriction) one type of development to another. Rationale: Careful planning can lessen potential conflicts and concerns about the impact of one type of development on another and on the environment.

Who's responsible? Done Date Current Commercial and Industrial (C &I) development should continue at an accelerated rate, until city is at an acceptable level of C & I City Council, City Administrator, Planning Division, Community Development Department Now and ongoing development. The City should identify land that has high potential for zoning or rezoning to Commercial and Industrial sites, and catalog in planning documents. This is important for two reasons. First, it may provide additional C & I development areas. Second, knowledge of where business development will occur lessens the potential for an unsuitable mix of residential and business properties. LEAD: Community Development Department ALSO: City Administrator, Planning Division, City Council ' 1996 Establish commercial and residential, and enforce industrial, "buffering standards ". Encourage collaborative design efforts with adjoining properties. LEAD: Planning Division ALSO: Community Development Department Now and ongoing Promote the use of innovative designs utilizing PDO/PUD projects for open space buffers. LEAD: Planning Division ALSO: Community Development Department Now and ongoing B. Plan Recommendation 2: City staff should review and revise zoning ordinances in order to encourage a housing stock that is sufficiently diverse to allow people to reside in the city as their economic and family status changes throughout their lifetimes. These additional housing types will improve the quality of life and give everyone an opportunity to join our community. The City should also establish and monitor quality architectural standards for development. These standards should foster and maintain the quality, fit and ambiance of the city identity. Rationale: As we look toward bringing affordable housing and other types of development into the community, maintaining the quality of housing stock is especially important. Growth Planning Advisory Group Page 5 FISCAL ANALYSIS Table E illustrates the average tax rates for County, City, school and special tax districts within a sample of communities. Average tax rates are provided by the League of Minnesota Cities because the Cities may overlap several school districts. Lino Lakes' current local tax rate can be attributed to a number of factors. These factors include the City's reliance on property tax for local revenues and the low percentage of intergovernmental aid received by the City in comparison with adjacent and similar communities. Lino Lakes' local tax rate is also affected by the City's current tax base composition which is predominantly homesteaded residential properties, versus apartments or commercial and industrial developments.

Metropolitan Airports Com- bas unveiled a 64.5 million to bring public sewer and yll ter to the Lake Elmo Airport some day, and that's causing more Consternation than any noise from the 66511 takeoffs and landings $ "W.'vta made a conscious -deci- sion in Lake Elmo to develop our . w a way that doesn't ieq • sewers," City Coan- +=Member Lee Hunt got :A y o contend that sew- eat will bring ®wanted urban - type development and rob their community of 6,200 residents of iti.rural dmraeter. "• Gary Schmidt, manager of the sir "reliever" airports in the Twin Cities area, said the airport com- mission's goal is to see to it that public utilities come to all of the airports sooner or later. Schmidt, however, said the com- mission won't rim roughshod over L' 1 . community wishes. "We'll work cooperatively with Lake Elmo, he said. "But it should be clear that we want the sewers because they are good for the environment. They reduce the risk of contamination of private wells from individual on -site sep- tic tank sewage treatment sys- tems." ' : : Lake Elmo is expected to be the last of the airports to get sewers because the closest metro sewer trunk line is more than two miles away. "It might take 10 or 20 years before the trunk line comes close enough to make hookup to the air- -port th �ra:4 it best to pput t people on notice 0. - t we want the sewers some day." The airport at St. Paul Down- town Airport (Holman Field) al- ready has sewers. The Crystal Air- port also is partly served by sewers, with more to come next year. Also targeted for sewers in the next three or four years are Anoka County - Blaine Airport, Flying Cloud Airport in Eden Prairie and Air Lake Airport in Lakeville. Council Member Hunt, mean- while, said he will try to organize opposition to sewers in Lake Elmo and surrounding West Lakeland and Baytown townships. "The airports commission hasn't been paying attention to communi- ty sentiment," he said. "Lake El- mo won't ever elect a city council that supports sewering of the com- munity because it's bound to lead to urban- density development. We want to preserve the rural charac- ter." To that end, Lake Elmo now requires cluster housing in almost one -third of the community. That means homes in new subdivisions mast be clustered on half or less of the tract, so the remainder of The land can be left as permanent 'open ""Thoseecclustered homes," Hunt said, "can still be served by indi • vidual on -cite septic tanks sewage treatment systems and private wells or communal disposal sys- • tams that don't require chemical treatment." But that Isn't stopping some in Lake Elmo from fearing that pub - lie sewers might be foisted on the community some day. "Unfortunately." Hunt said, "the Metro Council has proposed weav- ing some urban reserves from the Stillwater area all the way to Woodbury - That means bringing In sewer some day, to allow for ur- ban densities. Rest assured, most Lake Elmo residents world say, 'We don't ever want sewers. " 1 MINNEAPOLIS JOINT PUBLIC INFORMATION COMMITTEE December 24, 1997 Dear News Director or Managing Editor: Access to a crime scene or a disaster area, in addition to information from a key spokesperson, is critical to news organizations regardless of market size. In an effort to improve communication and cooperation among public information officers, a group of public information professionals has been meeting the past several years to discuss those issues. The group, the Minneapolis Joint Public Information Committee, represents county, local and state law enforcement agencies, hospitals and volunteer organizations, in addition to municipal and county government officials. One of the top priorities of the group is to develop policies and guidelines for working with the media in the event of a multi jurisdictional critical incident or disaster. The group also calls upon media professionals to provide input into developing these guidelines. We know serving the public is a high priority for you; it's our priority too. Individually, our agencies have enjoyed a good working relationship and spirit of cooperation in the past. We also rely on your efforts to share important information to your readers, listeners and viewers, especially when information critical to public safety must be disseminated. Recent group discussions have centered around the need for media credentials at public safety or critical incident scenes. We believe that better identification of news reporters and photojournalists would improve your news gathering capability by expediting access to the designated public information officer, and the scene itself. The media is generally provided priority access to areas not open to the general public; therefore, it is important to ensure that only credentialed media are provided access into those areas. Emergency personnel must also be able to quickly identify media representatives in the event that the safety of responders and/or news media may become an issue in a potentially hazardous situation such as a chemical spill. Visible media credentials would help accomplish that goal. As a result, we are asking for your cooperation regarding efforts to improve the identification of news reporters, photojournalists and technicians. This request is that all media professionals display a picture ID at any crime scene, emergency scene or public safety incident. The ID should be issued by the media organization and include the person's name. The photo ID should be worn on the outside of clothing and not be kept in a pocket, wallet or purse. Beginning immediately, personnel from several county, state and municipal public safety agencies will ask the professional media to display these credentials. Access to certain areas, such as a command center or priority access area, may be denied to those who are not wearing a photo ID. We urge media organizations to cooperate with public safety personnel in implementing these procedures. This request is designed to balance your need for information with our need to maintain the integrity of our emergency response efforts. This effort should work to the mutual benefit and safety of everyone concerned. Page Two December 24, 1997 Thank you again for your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to working with you.

At this time, we are asking the City Council to approve the moderate growth directive. This option projects a 2020 population of 20,500. OPTIONS: 1. Motion to adopt Moderate Growth Option fdl- use in completing the City's Comprehensive Land Use Plan. 2. Return to Comprehensive Plan Task Force for further consideration. 3. Other option as suggested by Council. RECOMMENDATION: Option 1 M E M O R A N D U M DATE: January 12, 1998 TO: Comprehensive Plan Task Force FROM: Brian Wessel /Mary Kay Wyland RE: Moderate Growth Scenario The Comprehensive Plan Task Force voted in favor of the moderate growth scenario at their November 20, 1997 meeting. Eight task force members were present at that meeting with two members voting against the moderate growth scenario the total committee consists of 14 members). Following is an excerpt from the September 1997 Lino Lakes Growth Scenario report prepared by Northwest Associated Consultants. This report identifies the moderate growth scenario as follows: The moderate growth scenario represents the mid point between limited growth and high growth scenarios. The moderate growth projection is for 147 dwelling units per year (the low growth scenario estimates a growth rate of 79 units per year while the high growth (Met Council) estimates 214 dwelling units per year). The moderate growth scenario is projecting a 2020 population of 20,500 with approximately 7,513 to 7,900 households. This number is variable as we do not know what the average household size will be in the year 2020 and can only speculate at 2.7 persons per household. Attached for your information is a map indicating the buildable area associated with the moderate growth scenario. POPULATION ESTIMATES: The 1994 population estimate for the City of Lino Lakes from the Mn Dept. of Trade and Economic Development is 12,266. The Metropolitan Council April 1996 estimate is 13,756 and City Staff population estimate for December 1996 is 14,324. A more accurate estimate will be available upon completion of the year 2000 Census conducted by the US Bureau of the Census.
