Mr. Marier thanked her for her deligency and pursuation. Mrs. Langfeld told the Council that there now has been two traffic counts at Lake Drive and Main Street, one in 1984 and one in 1986. These counts indicate that a traffic signal will be needed in two years or less according to County criteria. This has been placed in the County projects program. Mrs. Langfeld noted receipt of the Council resolution requesting Anoka and Ramsey County to upgrade County Road J (Ash Street) She indicated that the County is making every effort to obtain addi- tional highway funds or possibly do some bonding to get projects such as this funded.

COUNCIL MEETING 0 0 2 yA September 8, 1986 Page Two Mayor Benson asked Mrs. Langfeld if the County is anticipating a mill rate increase in 1987. She said at this point they are look- ing at a 5 mill increase but expects this to be reduced because there has been a healthy increase in the County assessed valuation. She noted there has been a dramatic reduction in state and federal funding for the County. Mayor Benson asked if the County is planning any new projects. Mrs. Langfeld explained the situation regarding the solid waste plans for the County and said the PCA is being very uncooperative and ignoring all other experts. This is taking a lot of staff time. There are plans to build a new highway building which will be located in Bun- ker Park near the present site. Mr. Volk told Mrs. Langfeld of the rumor being circulated regarding the County selling lots out of the Chain of Lakes Park. Mrs. Langfeld said there.is no truth to this rumor and Mr. Torkildson has indi- cated he has no idea how this started. She indicated that the County does not have the authority to sell any portions of the property. There was discussion regarding the construction of an interchange at Main Street (County #14) and 35W because of the expected use of the Chain of Lakes Park. Mrs. Langfeld suggested the City contact Sena- "'tor Durenburger who is a member of the Senate Transportation Commi- ttee and enlist his aid on this project. Mr. Marier moved to adopt Resolution #38 -86. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. Mrs. Anderson read the resolu- tion. 1 RESOLUTION #38 - 86 RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE INSTALLATION OF A FREEWAY INTERCHANGE AT THE INTERSECTION OF COUNTY /STATE AID HIGHWAY 14, AND INTERSTATE 35W.

PUBLIC HEARING - RICE LAKE ESTATES AREA ASSESSMENTS - RESOLUTION #39-86 Mr. Stallberg gave the Council and audience a booklet outlining the assessments procedure and explained the background of this project by showing overhead views of the original project and explaining how it has been narrowed down into the present project. The project is almost completed and this hearing is to allocate costs of the improve- ment. The basic assessment consists of the charge for the sewer la- 'terals and connections, sewer main, water mains and laterals and streets, curbs and gutters. Also included is an overall plan for the system that will bring sewer and water down 2nd Avenue to areas north of Lake Drive. There will be area asessments for this area. COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Six IThe proposed assessment rates are: sanitary sewer lateral, $32.41 /foot; sanitary sewer stub, $1,082; trunk charge, $705.00; watermain lateral is $13.80 /foot; connection to water main is $2,453; watermain trunk, $2,196 and street drainage is $41.64 /foot. Mr. Schumacher explained there is Community Development Block Funds available for citizens who qualify as low income. Letters will be sent to these individuals. Arvin Gearman, Rice Lake Estates - Mr. Gearman was concerned how much each parcel is assessed in the entire project. He asked how much Rice Lake Estates is to pay for water and sewer and how much the bal- ance of the area is paying. Is Rice Lake Estates paying their fair share or is Rice Lake Estates paying too much compared to the balance of the area. Mr. Stallberg explained exactly what Rice Lake Estates assessments consisted of and said the oversizing of the lines was spread over the entire project. 006 Allan Ulmer - Ulmers Rice Lake Addition - Mr. Ulmer asked why his area was being assessed when the services will not be brought up to his property. Mr. Stallberg explained that the lines were oversized so that services could be extended to service his plat when it is approved. IMr. Ulmer asked how it could benefit him when the Council turned down his plat and asked who decided where to stop the utilities and assess it against 80 -90 acres and not 500 acres as originally planned. Mr. Schumacher explained how the original projects had included much more land, however these developers dropped out. Mr. Ulmer had sent the City a letter requesting services and based on that letter and the plat that was submitted the area for services was determined. Mr. Ulmer asked how can the City assess his property when the City turned down his project. Mr. Stallberg told Mr. Ulmer he was getting as- sessed for the future benefits for the trunk main and connection charges and well and water supply. Now the services can be extended to his property where formerly it could not be etended. Mr. Ulmer asked if the City had received his letter protesting his assessment. Mayor Benson said yes. Mr. Ulmer asked if he is still being assessed. Mayor Benson said yes. Mr. Ulmer said he would proceed with a lawsuit against the City because the City cannot assess property when they turned down the plat. Mr. Gearman had further questions as to what:made up his assessments and what the assessments are for the other properties. Mr. Schumacher explained he had the Clerk run the assessment schedule for all the property owners except Rice Lake Estates because Mr. Gearman had not asked for Rice Lake Estates. Mrs. Anderson said she would run a copy of Rice Lake Estates for him. 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Seven Dave Germer - Lots 10 & 11, Golden's Rice Lake Terrace asked what if any benefit will his property receive for this assessment. Mr. Stallberg explained how the utilities are projected to be brought up 2nd Avenue and if his lots are developable the lots will be bene- fited. Mr. Germer explained he was told that the back of his lots are wetlands and not developable. Mr. Stallberg said if they are not developable, there is no benefit and they cannot be assessed. Mr. Stallberg will check the buildability of these two lots. Mr. Ulmer said if the Council could prove a benefit to him he would accept the assessments. Mr. Marier explained again how Mr. Ulmer's subdivision was included in the assessment area and why his proposal was denied until Mr. Ulmer provides the proper easements. Mr. Gearman said he still did not understand his assessment figures. He said he was curious as to how the assessments were spread to the various parcels. Originally the pipes were going to be oversized for future expansion to the north and when those lands were developed the southern developers were going to be reimbursed. Mr. Schumacher explained the project was reduced to serve only the area outlined to- night. Mr. Marier asked Mr. Gearman if his question was how much the pipes were oversized for that area along 2nd Avenue and who is paying for that. Mr. Gearman said, yes. Mr. Marier asked that Mr. Gearman be given the dollar figure for the oversizing and what the end result will be. Mr. Stallberg explained to Mr. Ulmer his assessment consisted of watermain, trunk and sewer and the reason for the assessment is that these services will eventually be extended into his property. Mr. Ulmer commented that his property has not been approved, how can the utilities be extended to service it. Mayor Benson said his property was rezoned and this was at his request. Darrell Shaw, 6800 Lake Drive - Mr. Shaw asked if there are new ad- ditions to these utility lines will the original users be reimbursed. Mayor Benson said no. Mr. Marier moved to close the public hearing at 8:09 P.M. Mr. Boh- janen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Marier moved to adopt Resolution #39 -86 to authorize and certify assessments for the Rice Lake Estates area to the County and answer all the questions before the Council tonight. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Stallberg noted that there is a street assessment on lots 14 & 15 owned by Frank Sazenski (Frankies -on- the -Lake) and Northern Instru- ments. There should not be street assessments and he will revise the assessment. 007 1 1 CITY OF LINO LAKES oo; Resolution No. 39 - 86 WHEREAS, pursuant to propert notice duly given as required by law, the Council has met and heard and passed upon all object- ions to the proposed assessment for the improvement of the Rice Lake Estates Area starting at North Road and Lake Drive, then south on Trunk Highway #49 into Rice Lake Estates and north on Highway #49 to 2nd Avenue, then north on 2nd Avenue to include Ulmer's Rice Lake 4th Addition, NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA: 1.

Anderson, Clerk- Treasurer enson, Mayor - 01 010 COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Eight ICONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION #36 - 86, REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT FOR NON - ALLOCATED SAC COLLECTION. RESOLUTION #36 - 86 Mr. Schumacher explained that presently the City is requiring the payment of SAC for every new building permit issued in the City in- cluding permits that are issued outside of the Urban Service Dis- trict Area. Metro Waste Control Commission (MWCC) has been study- ing their policy on the SAC fees for hooking up to the Metro Sewer (SAC) and considering the possibility of rebating to the City all SAC collected outside of the Urban Service District. Resolution #36 -86 is requesting that MWCC seriously consider reim- bursing Lino Lakes for all the SAC it has collected through the years where there is not likely to be sewer in the near future or possibly never. If the MWCC does adopt this policy Lino Lakes should receive close to $400,000 in rebates. The Council would have to formulate a policy as to where these funds would go and if the City should re- quest the entire rebate because there are some areas that will even- tually get sewer. This resolution will let MWCC know that Lino Lakes is interested in the rebate program. Mr. Schumacher noted that SAC will be increased in the next few years Ifrom the present $475.00 to over $1,100.00. There was concern that citizens who have already paid SAC not be charged again when they do receive sewer. Mr. Schumacher said the City has kept record of the payments. Mr. Hawkins explained that if the City does collect the SAC for areas not designated for sewer service, these fees will have to be escrowed and then the City will have to pay the balance if the SAC rates have increased. He explained how a City in Anoka County is handling the situation. Mr. Marier moved to adopt Resolution #36 -86 with the reservation that the City protect those who have paid all the SAC charges and any ad- ditional charges assessed to the property be paid by the City and the City Council will designate the use of the funds that are set aside. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. CITY OF LINO LAKES RESOLUTION #36 - 86 RESOLUTION REQUESTING REIMBURSEMENT OF SEWER AVAILIBILITY CHARGES (SAC) COLLECTED BY THE METROPOLITAN WASTE CONTROL COMMISSION FORM AREAS WHICH WILL NOT RECEIVE SERVICE AVAILIBILITY IN THE PLANNED FUTURE. WHEREAS: The Metropolitan Waste Control Commission is in the pro- cess of evaluating its future fund rates and service availibility charge collection policy, and 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1.98€ Page Nine WHEREAS: In its study, it is considering potential refunds to cities which have paid SAC fees for areas which will not receive service in the near future, and WHEREAS: A large portion of the City contain areas for which SAC charges were collected but remain outside of our Urban Service District, and are therefore unable to receive service, and WHEREAS: In a comparative ratio of SAC fees collected to service hookups in the metropolitan area, the City of Lino Lakes has paid more SAC fees and received one of the fewest number of hookups, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Lino Lakes City Council hereby requests reimbursement of SAC fees collected by the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission since 1973 for areas which will not receive service availibility and therefore receive no benefit. In addition the City Council requests that the Metropolitan Waste Control Comm- ission act on this request in an expiditious manner. Adopted by the City Council of Lino Lakes the 8th day of September, 1986. Benjamin G. Benson, Mayor Marilyn G. Anderson, Clerk - Treasurer CONSIDERATION OF AWARDING BIDS FOR BLACK DUCK LOTS Mr. Schumacher explained the lots on Black Duck were offered for bid last winter and the bid was awarded to Roger Nelson. Mr. Nelson has not closed on the lots and has been stalling for several reasons and in June he was;tdldto complete the closing within 10 days. Mr. Nelson did not close and the lots were rebid. Mr. Ed Vaughan, 104 Wildwood Avenue, White Bear Lake bid $15,750.00 for all lots and Regency Homes, Inc., 3825 - 85th Avenue North, Brooklyn Park bid $17,000.00. Mr. Bisel felt Mr. Nelson had an obligation to the City to honor his bid and Mr. Hawkins felt the City had good basis for a lawsuit. Mr. Marier moved to have Mr. Hawkins begin a suit against Mr. Nelson to either close on the lots or recover damages. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion declared passed. 011 1 COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Ten CONSIDERATION OF A PROPOSAL FOR AMBULANCE SERVICE FROM HEALTH CENTRAL Mr. Gary Michurski representing Emergency Medical Services (Health Central presented a proposal to the City Council regarding establish- ing an Advance Life Support (paramedic) Ambulance Service in the Centennial fire district. Mr.Michurski said he would prefer placing the ambulance in the Circle Pines fire barn as this site would offer the most flexibility and keep response time to a minimum in the area they serve. However, the ambulance could be placed in the Lino Lakes fire hall if so desired by the Council. He further described the service which could begin in late November. This would be a twenty four hour service, seven days a week. Mr. Michurski was asked why he was making this proposal now, after District Memorial Hospital (DMH) has already made their proposal. Mr. Michurski said he was suprised to hear of DMH's proposal since_ his firm has already been servicing this area for some time and felt there must be some concerns. Mr. Barry Mattson of DMH asked if this proposed base would be ded- icated to Lino Lakes. Mr. Michurski explained that during peak times the vehicle may be moved to cover in other areas. There are presently six crews working during the day operating from Mercy and Unity Hospitals, New Brighton, Blaine, Shoreview and Roseville. Presently, three crews are working at night. IMr. Mattson asked if the Lino Lakes base unit would be used to tran- sfer patients. Mr. Michurski said if there was to be a number of patient transfers, another crew would be added. Mr. Marier moved to table this item until the fire district can give their recommendations, so the Council can have an opportunity to read the material presented to them tonight and to have both service providers give the Council information regarding where the vehicle will be located, what would be the responsibility for storage and the cost of storing the vehicle. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimiously. CONSIDERATION OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN CIRCLE PINES PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION AND LINO LAKES CONCERNING RICE LAKE ESTATES IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Schumacher explained he had received a proposed agreement from Circle Pines which includes several dollar figures that Lino Lakes is supposed to commit to as a guarantee to Circle Pines. This is beyond what the Lino Lakes City Council has Agreed to previously and Mr. Schumacher is recommending that the agreement be amended. Mr. Hawkins has submitted a letter of review of the proposed agree- ment and also recommends amendments. IMr. Marier moved that since the Lino Lakes City Council has already approved a motion to support Lino Lake's responsibility to the pro- ject (dollars) and have indicated that Lino Lakes could be responsible for some reasonable interest payments, to tell the negotiating comm- ittee that no further direction is needed than what has already been committed to. Inform the committee that this Council has already taken action on a proposed agreement and have asked for a document COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Eleven that indicates this City supports the expenditures for the construct- ion in Rice Lake Estates and that this City would honor this if the project defaulted. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Mr. Bisel was concerned and said he would not support anymore motions on this issue. Mr. Marier noted that there are rules of the Public Utility Commission that must be followed imthis matter. Mr. Bohjanen was concerned because he felt the Council had not received all the facts from the Circle Pines Utility Commission. Voting on the motion, motion carried with Mr. Bohjanen voting, no. BILL - BETZLER- REPAIR OF ASH STREET. Mr. Betzler representing John Bloomquist told the Council that Mr. Bloomquist is now selling lots in the Arbor Lakes Addition just off of Ash Street (County Road J). There is approximately seven tenths of that street that is in need of extensive repair and he would like to request that this street be considered when preparing the budget requests for street repair this fall. Mr. Betzler is aware that this street is a county and city boundary street and that jurisdict- ion has not been established. He is also aware of the manner in which the eastern portion of this street was repaired some time ago. Mr. Marier told Mr. Betzler that when the first section was repaired this Council also said they would not be responsible for further re- pair. Mayor Benson noted the Ramsey County Regional Park on the south side of the street and asked that Mr. Betzler contact Mr. Kluegel and Mr. Volk to determine what the park plans for the future entrances to the park so that possibly some financial aid could be obtained in that area. He also said he would like to hear from White Bear Township and Anoka County as to there responsibility in this area. ENGINEER'S REPORT - RON STALLBERG A. Consideration of 4th Avenue Bids - Mr. Stallberg told the Council that bids had been received and Forest Lake Contracting is the low bidder. He asked that the Council award the bid after the State Aid division approves the plans. Mr. Hawkins noted that the quick take of the needed easements will not be finalized until after September 25th. Mr. Marier said there may be a question concerning the LeBlond ease- ment for the westerly drainage pipe. Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Stallberg were asked to resolve this situation. 013 B. West Shadow Lake Drive (7th Avenue) Update - Mr. Stallberg told the Council that the preliminary surveys and the reports of the soils crew are nearly completed. Mr. Marier had a question regarding the engineering cost estimate and Mr. Stallber outlined the manner in which the estimate was determined. Mr. Stallberg will have cost estimates COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Twelve Ifor either a box culvert or circular pipe and for the roadway with or without curb and gutter. C. Feasibility Report North Road, Resolution #37 -86 - Mr. Stallberg outlined his procedure in determining the basis for the feasibility; esentially the same as for Rice Lake Estates and Mr. Volk's figures regarding municipal water installation were used as the basis for the feasibility of that utility.

ATTORNEY'S REPORT - BILL HAWKINS Mr. Hawkins did not have a report. CONSIDERATION OF 4TH AVENUE EMINENT DOMAIN APPRAISAL PAYMENTS Mr. Hawkins explained the City will be taking possession of the par- cels taken by eminent domain on September 25, 1986. However, the state law mandates that the City pay for these parcels according to the appraisal prepared by the City appraiser prior to that date. He is requesting authorization to make the payments to the landowners. There is a possibility that some landowners will not accept the amounts set by the appraiser and further court hearings will be neces- sary to complete the litigations. Mr. Marier moved to authorize the payments as requested by Mr. Haw- kins. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Marier told the Council he had received questions regarding the method used by the appriaser to determine payment and also questions about the ability of each individual parcel to be divided after further easements are taken. CONSIDERATION OF AWARDING SEAL COATING BIDS FOR 1986 ROAD PAVING Mr. Volk advertised for bids for the 1986 seal coat program and had received one bid. He felt this was not a competitive bid and recom- mended that it not be accepted and the 1986 seal coat program to be added to the 1987 program. Mr. Volk was asked why the bid was advertised so late in the year. Mr. Volk explained that the flooding problems and the bad weather during the overlay program has delayed all other projects. 015 COUNCIL MEETING September 8, 1986 Page Fourteen There was discussion regarding whether or not the roads intended to be seal coated would break up worse without the seal coat. Mr. Volk said this would be a possibility. After further discussion Mr. Marier moved to direct Mr. Volk to resubmit for bids for seal coating to be completed this season. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Volk was asked to follow up with various contractors in this business. OLD BUSINESS A.
