Mayor Sullivan clarified that the regular business of the City Council normally takes place at a
regular Council meeting. However, there are times when City business cannot wait and a special
meeting is set. The law requires that the City give 72 hour notice of special meetings. To comply
with this law, additional (special) meetings are posted on the door of City Hall. Public access to
regularly scheduled meetings is available for residents that have cable TV on their street. Any
resident who would like a notice of special meetings should give the City Clerk their name and
address. A notice will be mailed to them when a notice is posted on the door of City Hall.
Mayor Sullivan announced that Fairview Hospital is going to hold a community health clinic in
Lino Lakes. Seventy five to 100 residents will be interviewed about what type of health
programming they feel is needed in the community. Early childhood and senior citizen health
needs will be a focus.
Mayor Sullivan thanked Council Member Neal and Sergeant Bill Hammes for putting together
toys and food for those in need throughout the community. Council Member Neal noted the
Centennial Fire Department and the Lino Lakes Police Department helped distribute the toys and
food. Approximately 150 volunteers helped. One truck load of toys and two (2) tons of food
were distributed.
Council Member Lyden requested the opportunity to speak about the minutes. Mayor Sullivan
suggested a discussion regarding the minutes be held at the next Council work session.
ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT REPORT, DAN TESCH
Consideration of Renewal of Recording Secretary Service Agreement (TimeSavers) for
1999 - Mr. Tesch explained that the City contracted with TimeSavers Off -Site Secretarial, Inc.,
in 1994 to record and transcribe minutes for the Planning and Zoning Board. The purpose for
using an off-site service was to free time for the Planning Coordinator to deal with landowner
requests and work with consultants developing the Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the City.
Beginning in January, 1997, TimeSavers began providing minute transcription for the City

COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
Council and the Charter Commission. Beginning in January, 1998, TimeSavers began providing
minute transcription for the Park Board.
All City staff have expressed their satisfaction with the quality of the minutes. In addition to
providing quality service, minutes are completed in a timely manner so that they can be approved
at the next regular meeting of the Council, Board or Commission.
The Recording Secretarial Service Agreement is exactly the same as the 1998 Agreement with
the exception of the date. Mr. Hawkins has reviewed the Agreement and has provided comment
that the Agreement is proper and can be executed by the Mayor and City Clerk -Treasurer upon
approval by the City Council.
Staff recommended Council approve the Agreement with TimeSavers Off -Site Secretarial, Inc.
Council Member Lyden moved to approve the Agreement with TimeSavers Off -Site Secretarial,
Inc., as presented. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of 1998 Budget Amendments, Daryl Sulander - Mr. Sulander stated the 1998
General Fund Budget was adopted on December 15, 1997, with revenue balanced with
expenditures in the amount of $4,866,100.
• The General Fund operations for 1998 have varied from budgeted estimates due to personnel
restructuring, storm damages and higher than budgeted building/construction activity.
The proposed budget amendment resolution recognizes $463,459 of additional revenue and
$273,018 of additional expenditures during 1998. The balance of $190,441 in additional revenue
will be placed inthe General Fund reserves. The additional revenue will be designed after final
1998 accounting records are available.
Staff recommended Council adopt Resolution No. 98 -167.
Mayor Sullivan questioned whether changes would eliminate overages in the future.
Council Member Neal moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 -167, as presented. Council Member
Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 98 -167 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of City Investment Policy Amendment - Mr. Sulander stated that the City
Investment Policy currently designates the "Finance Director" as the investment officer. As this
position no longer exists, the policy should be updated to reflect the restructuring of the Finance
Department.
•
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
The policy can be amended to empower the investment officer through the assigned job
description, currently the "Financial Analyst" job description, and eliminate the need for future
amendments based on job title changes.
Staff recommended Council adopt Resolution No. 98 - 178.
Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 - 178, as presented. Council
Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 98 - 178 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Depositories for 1999 - Mr. Tesch stated that due to a death in his family he
was unable to prepare this item. He asked that the item be tabled until the next Council meeting.
Council Member Bergeson moved to table Item 3C, Consideration of Depositories for 1999, until
the next regular Council meeting. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried
unanimously.
Consideration of Legal Newspaper for 1999 - Mr. Tesch referred to a request from the Quad
Community Press to be the official newspaper for the City of Lino Lakes, along with a rate
quote. The purpose of an official newspaper is to provide a reliable location for publishing legal
notices, as well as to keep as many citizens appraised of City activities as possible - i.e. widest
circulation.
Staff recommended Council designate the Quad Press as the City's official newspaper.
Mr. Tesch was asked if the City advertised for bids. He explained that the City has not advertise
in the past. Newspapers in the area send the City a request to be appointed the legal newspaper
accompanied by an explanation of their rates and areas of coverage. Mr. Sullivan noted a posted
bidding process is not required.
Council Member Lyden stated that whether it is the law or not, it is the best practice to notify all
papers about the bidding process. He suggested this issue be further discussed.
Mr. John Bartunek, Director of Press Publications and a four (4) year resident of Lino Lakes,
thanked the City for its past business. He stated the Press focuses on coverage and on
circulation.
Mr. Bartunek was told that there have been numerous complaints about circulation of the Quad
Press. Delivery of the paper is very erratic. Mr. Bartunek said he would investigate the problem
after this meeting.
Council Member Neal moved to designate the Quad Press as the City's official newspaper.
Council Member Dahl seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.

Consideration of 1999 Pay Program and Adjustment for Non -Union Employees - Mr. Tesch
presented a copy of both the 1998 Pay Program and the Proposed 1999 Pay Program.. He
explained that each year the Council is asked to consider adjustments to the City's Pay Program.
The adjustments include adoption of the Hay Study Job Value Points as the backbone of the Pay
Program, range and point adjustments to certain positions during this summer's restructuring and
the addition of new employees to the program. Those changes can be tracked in the Pay Program
and have been made in consultation with our labor relations consultants (LRA).
Adoption of this year's program includes a staff recommendation to adjust non-union salaries by
3% consistent with other employee group increases. This Program also maintains the City's pay
equity compliance, per State Statute.
Staff recommended adoption of the 1999 Pay Program.
Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt the 1999 Pay Program and non-union employee
adjustments, as presented. Council Member Dahl seconded the motion. Motion carried
unanimously.
PUBLIC SERVICES REPORT, RICK DEGARDNER (No Report)
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT REPORT, BRIAN WESSEL
Consideration of Livable Communities Participation/Goals, Brian Wessel - Mr. Smyser
stated that at the last work session, the Council directed staff to confer with the Metropolitan
Council staff on the proposed Livable Community goals. Staff presented the goals the City
Council felt comfortable with. Met Council staff is also comfortable with the more realistic goals
proposed by the City Council. This includes an 85/15% owner/rental mix and a 65%
affordability goal for owner -occupied housing. Life cycle goals include a total of 508 units with
268 of them identified as rental. The rental goals are compatible with what is proposed for the
Town Center. Thirty-two of all new rental units would be "affordable" to meet the goal by the
year 2010. Mr. Smyser stated previously the goals were 68% affordability and life cycle
owner/rental mix was 75/25%.
Mr. Smyser noted that the goals apply only to new units constructed in the future. That is, the
existing housing units are not to be included in the calculations for comparing progress to the
long-term goals.
Mr. Smyser referred to a memo that gives additional background on the Livable Communities
program, including a breakdown of what the goals mean in terms of actual housing units.
Staff is recommending adoption of two (2) resolutions by the Council. The first is a resolution
electing to continue participation in the Livable Communities Program. The second resolution
will adopt the goals proposed by the City Council. Continued participation in the Livable
Communities program allows the City to continue several important planning and economic
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
development projects. A letter from the Metropolitan Council states that the City will have the
opportunity to adjust the goals as time goes on and better data is available.
Council Member Lyden excused himself at 7:25 p.m.
Mr. Smyser recapped and summarize the program. The Livable Communities Act was passed by
the Minnesota Legislature in 1995. The law provides funding to promote the purposes of the act,
which includes cleaning up polluted land, creating examples of compact, efficient development,
and providing diverse housing options.
The Act describes how these funds are to be managed by the Metropolitan Council. In order to
be eligible for funding, a city must participate in the Livable Communities Program and must
confirm participation annually. The City also must agree to work toward promoting a greater
variety of housing. To provide some sort of indication of progress, the City is required to set
long-range goals including housing affordability, life cycle housing, and development density.
The goals relate to new housing units to be built in the city.
As a result of Lino Lakes previous participation in the Livable Communities program, the City
received a $220,000 grant for The Village. This funding, and future potential funding through
this and other programs, is contingent upon continued participation in the program. In addition,
continued participation in the Livable Communities Program allows the City to continue current
planning efforts in The Village and the larger Town Center area. Mr. Smyser explained this is a
major economic development initiative in the City.
Staff recommended adoption of Resolution No. 98 - 174 and Resolution No. 98 - 175.
Mr. Smyser was asked about the goals in the draft Comprehensive Plan which were prepared a
year ago. He explained that those goals will be updated and included in the Plan with a cover
letter. The new goals are based on market conditions and are more realistic.
It was noted that the 2010 population projection is based on 2.3 units per acre. Mr. Smyser
explained that this does not include acres that are put into permanent preservation. Only acres
that can be developed are counted.
Council Member Neal explained his concern regarding low income rental units. He was told the
rental goals are 32 new affordable units by the year 2010. However, affordability does not mean
low income.
Council Member Neal stated he wanted the goals to be outlined in the Comprehensive Plan.
He asked about if the Tagg property was proposed for townhouses and apartments. He was told
that approximate area is planned for higher density housing as part of the Comprehensive Plan.
Council Member Neal stated he needed several things documented and in writing this evening.
Ms. Wyland and Mr. Wessel reviewed his questions and Mr. Smyser documented the
information.

COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
Density was discussed. Ms. Wyland defined high, medium and low density as follows: high
density is nine (9) or more units per acre, medium density is four (4) to eight (8) units per acre
and low density is one (1) to four (4) units per acre. Although nine (9) units per acre is average
for high density, the Lino Lakes goal is 10-12 units per acre which will limit the size of the units.
There are no apartment designations in the Comprehensive Plan. The only designation is
high/medium/low density. There is no designation for income related to high/medium/low
density housing. In the Livable Communities Program, 15% of renter mix is to be obtained by
2010, which for Lino Lakes would be 268 units. It is expected that most of these units will be in
the Town Center.
Mr. Wessel referred to a map and located the proposed higher density area within the Town
Center in two (2) other areas of the City. The high density area on the west side of the City is the
Tagg property. It was noted that 600 units are estimated for high density. Each area designated
for high density will have approximately 200 units.
Council Member Bergeson complimented staff for the working with the Metropolitan Council.
He noted that initially, the goals were higher. Because staff negotiated with the Met Council, the
goals are far more reasonable. Although no one can predict how the goals will compare to actual
construction, it is important that the Comprehensive Plan does not conflict with these goals. The
market will determine what gets built.
1111 Mayor Sullivan added that the goals are for 2010. Some areas will not be developed until 2020.
Council Member Neal moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 - 174, as presented. Council Member
Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried with Council Member Dahl voting no.
Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 - 175, as presented. Council
Member Neal seconded the motion.
Mayor Sullivan summarized as follows: a Livable Communities grant is paying for community
development research in the Town Center. It is very important that the Town Center be put
together well. This area proposed for commercial development has been indicated as very
important to citizens through the 20/20 Vision project. Participation in the Livable Communities
program helps the City prepare for that development. It is also a high priority within the City to
maintain open space. The grant will fund a group that is dedicated to preserving open space and
to work with developers planning new developments. To qualify for the grant, the City has to
identify goals and commit to participating in the program. To meet the goals, the City must
build 508 attached units of which 268 are rental units, and 32 are affordable units. The goals are
in alignment with the 20/20 Vision project and the Comprehensive Plan. The grant will also help
fund development of new trails.
Council Member Bergeson stated the amount of the grant for the Town Center is $220,000. It
• will enable the City to involve world class planners in the planning process. The Town Center
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
will end up as a first class center. The City has no other funds to provide this planning effort. It is
important for the community, therefore, the City must participate in the program.
Motion carried with Council Member Dahl voting no.
Resolutions No. 98 - 174 and No. 98 - 175 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Site Plan Review for Addition to Club House, Chomonix Golf Course, 646
Sandpiper Drive, Mary Kay Wyland - Ms. Wyland stated that Anoka County is requesting a
site plan review to allow the construction of a 40 foot by 45 foot banquet room addition to the
west side of the existing Chomonix Golf Course club house and a 15 foot by 38 foot
office/mechanical room on the east side of the club house. The existing building is
approximately 45 feet by 75 feet. The banquet room will be designed to accommodate post -
tournament events during playing season and ski related events and community uses during the
off-season. No cooking facilities are planned at this time, however, serving space for foods that
are pre -prepared will be provided. There was some discussion concerning the provision of a full
restaurant but County staff determined that was not possible at this time. The banquet facility
will not be rented to the public during the golf season. This facility will only be available during
the winter months.
The property is Zoned Public/Semi-Public (PSP) and a golf course is listed as a permitted use.
According to the City's Zoning Ordinance "...all site and building plans for multiple family,
commercial, industrial or public/semi-public uses shall require review by the Planning and
Zoning Board and approval by the City Council".
Staff has determined that the site plan review meets the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
The proposed addition will be aesthetically compatible with the existing buildings on the golf
course. The proposed expansion will match the existing architectural design of the present club
house. No additional parking space will be required nor will the existing parking area be
disturbed with the planned expansion. Parking space requirements including handicapped
parking already meet the Zoning Ordinance. The City Engineer has reviewed the development
proposal and has indicated no objections to the request. The County has indicated that existing
plantings will be moved and replaced following construction. Staff has requested that a landscape
plan be prepared. It will be reviewed and approved by the City Forester.
Ms. Wyland stated there are numerous different locations for a septic system repair or relocation.
The applicant has indicated lighting will be minimal and similar to lighting used in the past. The
lighting plan will be subject to approval by staff.
The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval with six (6) votes for approval and one
abstained.
Council Member Neal moved to approve the Chomonix Golf Course, 646 Sandpiper Drive, Site
Plan Review, based on the following conditions:
8
•
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21,1998
1. Proper building permits are obtained prior to construction and construction meet all
requirements of the Uniform Building Code.
2. Drainage and utility plans are subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer.
3. Existing plantings are replaced and/or a landscaping plan is provided subject to the
review and approval of the City Forester.

Council Member Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of Site Plan Review, Addition to Existing Facility, Construction Laborers
Training Facility, 2350 Main Street, Mary Kay Wyland - Ms. Wyland stated the Construction
Laborers Education, Apprenticeship & Training fund of Minnesota and North Dakota would like
to add an 18,000 +/- square foot addition to their existing building at 2350 Main Street. The
addition would include a training bay, three (3) classrooms, welding storage, bathrooms, a lunch
• room area and district offices. The original facility was approved by the City in the fall of 1993.
The property is Zoned Light Industrial (LI), and indicated as commercial/industrial on the land
use map (both current and proposed). The parcel of property is approximately 20 acres in size
and will be served by City utilities in the spring of 1999. That schedule coincides with the
Training Center's construction plans and their need to connect to public utilities as the facility
will require sprinkling.
•
The proposed construction is intended to match the existing building with rock faced concrete
block and metal roofing. The parking area will be expanded to provide an additional 47 spaces
for a total of 109. The Zoning Ordinance provides for one space per classroom and one space per
seven (7) students. There are a total of five (5) classrooms and five (5) offices. The parking area
provided is adequate for the facility. Lighting will be subject to review by the CPTED Officer.
The proposed addition is planned for the south/east side of the existing facility, therefore,
additional landscaping is not required at this time. RCWD permits are in process. Detailed
drainage and utility plans have not been submitted. Staff would require this detail prior to
issuance of any building permits. Compliance to the conditions of approval will be monitored
and documented by the Building Inspections Department.
The Planning and Zoning Board unanimously recommended approval of this site plan review.
Mr. Fred Chase, a representative from Laborers Training Center was present to answer questions
from the City Council.
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21,1998
Council Member Neal complimented the Unions for the school. He has heard that the training
center is exceptional. Everyone connected with the facility is enthusiastic about it. He stated his
support of the addition.
Mr. Wessel added the Economic Development Department is very appreciative of the school.
The school has been a good neighbor and very easy to work with.
Council Member Neal moved to approve Site Plan Review, 2350 Main Street, Laborers Training
Center, based on the following conditions:
1. Proper building permits be obtained prior to construction. This will include review by
both the building official and the Fire Chief for compliance with State Code.
2. Drainage and utility plans shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer.
3. Permits are obtained from the Rice Creek Watershed District prior to issuance of any
building permits.
4. The parking area shall be paved and concrete curb and gutter provided as required by
City Code.
5. Final building plans, including lighting, are subject to the review and recommendation
of the CPTED Officer.
Council Member Dahl seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Consideration of Resolution No. 98 -177, Awarding Telephone and Voice/Data Cabling
Bids for Civic Complex, Brian Wessel - The City has advertised for bids on the voice and the
data cabling, RF distribution and the telephone system for the Civic Complex. The plans and
specifications for the phone system require Mitel phones to be compatible with the Centennial
School District system. Bids were opened on Monday, December 14, 1998, at 9:00 a.m., at City
Hall. Four (4) bids for voice and data cabling and RF distribution, and one bid for Mitel
telephones were received. The bids were examined and tabulated. CableOptics was the lowest
responsible bidder at $30,203.41 for voice and data cabling and Mitel was the lone bidder for the
Mitel phone system at $60,142.00.
A memorandum from AmeriCom, Inc., the second lowest bidder for the cabling contract was
received. They stated, in their opinion, CableOptics, Inc., did not comply with the bidding
instructions for the project. Specifically, they believe CableOptics did not comply with the
instruction stating "Bidder must have three (3) years of experience installing structured cabling
systems with two (2) hundred or more CAT3/CAT5 locations". Mr. Barry Sullivan, acting as the
City Attorney, explained that the City is responsible to determine the lowest responsible bidder.
The City must look beyond the name of the company. The three (3) year requirement refers to
the employees doing the work for more than three (3) years. The same would apply in a situation
of a bid being received from an incompetent company with a good name. The City has the
10
•

•
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
authority and obligation to look beyond the three (3) year requirement. In addition, CableOptics
provided a list of references and letters of recommendations. The references were contacted and a
good report was received. Staff and Mr. Sullivan agreed that CableOptics meets the bidding
requirement.
Staff recommended Council adopt Resolution No. 98 -177.
Council Member Neal moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 - 177, as presented. Council Member
Dahl seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mayor Sullivan voting no.
Resolution No. 98 -177 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Livable Communities Contract with Brauer & Associates, Mary Alice
Divine - The Town Center is in the process of being "replanned" using Livable Communities
Demonstration Account funds. A proposal from Brauer and Associates has been requested to
provide a detailed natural resources inventory and assistance in park, trail and open space
planning for The Village and the shopping center site.
This planning effort must be completed if the Town Center is to become a working model of the
process for conservation development. The contract with Brauer and Associates calls for natural
resource mapping to be integrated into the Master Plan for the Town Center that has been
prepared by Calthorpe Associates for the Town Center. Additional services may be included as
budget allows to obtain Brauer's input in stormwater treatment and project implementation.
Currently, Brauer and Associates are developing a Natural Resources Inventory and Management
Plan for the entire City. This Plan includes a natural resources map which will used as a base for
the entire City. The new contract will include a more detailed map of the Town Center and
shopping center area. The Comprehensive Plan has been developed to ensure responsible
development and prevent destruction of natural resources. It has been demonstrated through a
model housing development that development can occur using natural resources conservation.
The new contract with Brauer and Associates will provide further assurances that the City is
complying with the provisions of the Comprehensive Plan.
Staff recommended approval of the contract with Brauer and Associates.
Council Member Bergeson moved to approve the contract with Brauer and Associates for a
natural resources inventory for the Town Center, as presented, subject to review by the City
Attorney. Council Member Neal seconded the motion.
Motion carried with Council Member Dahl voting no.
Consideration of Final Plat, Holly Estates, Mary Kay Wyland - Upon adoption of the agenda,
this item was deleted.
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
Consideration of Resolution No. 98 - 179, Assessment Policy Amendment - Mr. Powell stated
the current Public Improvement Financing Policy was adopted on June 11, 1990. Section 5.1 of
the Policy includes what is commonly referred to as the "Bisel Amendment" which states the
following:
"When a sewer and water main is constructed adjacent to existing developed residential
lots (with a home, well, and septic system) and the lot cannot be subdivided into smaller
parcels, the front footage and area charges shall be based on the minimum front footage
of each zoning district the mains are to serve."
In other words, if a property owner wants to connect to City utilities and has a large lot which
cannot be subdivided, the assessment computation is to be based on a typical residential lot size.
This reduces the assessment cost to the property owner as the lot front footage and area are used
as a basis for determining the assessment. This policy has worked well for those property
owners whose lots cannot be subdivided. Some property owners with larger parcels have also
indicated a desire to connect to City utilities but could not afford the assessment as their lots
could at some time be subdivided. To address this concern, staff is proposing the following
paragraph be added to Section 5.1 of the Public Improvement Financing Policy:
"When a sewer and water main is constructed adjacent to existing developed residential
lots (with a home, well, and septic system) and the lot can be subdivided into smaller
parcels, an assessment for the front footage and area charges based on the minimum front
footage of each zoning district the mains are to serve shall be due upon connection to the
mains. The assessment for the remainder of the property will be deferred until such time
as the property is subdivided."
This change would allow these property owners to connect to utilities, if desired, for a more
reasonable cost, but would still allow the City to recover assessments on the remainder of the
property when it is subdivided.
Mr. Paul Montain, Charter Commission Chairman, was notified of this proposed amendment to
the Assessment Policy. Mr. Powell indicated that he had spoken with Mr. Montain and he had no
objection to the amendment. Mr. Montain will bring the issue to the next Charter Commission
meeting.
Staff recommended Council adopt Resolution No. 98 - 179.
Council Member Neal moved to approve Resolution No. 98 - 179, as presented. Council
Member Dahl seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 98 - 179 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Modification of an Assessment Agreement for F & G, Inc. - In 1997, the
EDA entered into a development agreement for financial assistance with F & G, Inc. regarding a
project within TIF District No. 1-7 in the Apollo Business Park. The agreement called for the
12
•
•
COUNCIL MINUTES December 21, 1998
construction of two (2) buildings in 1997 and a third in 1998. The original assessment
agreement, which sets the minimum market value for the project, included the first two (2)
buildings. The third building is now complete and a modified assessment agreement must be
completed to reflect the increase in value. This modified agreement should be completed before
January 2, 1999, for taxes payable in 2000.
Staff recommended Council adopt Resolution No. 98 - 180.
Council Member Neal moved to adopt Resolution No. 98 -180, as presented. Council Member
Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
PUBLIC SAFETY REPORT, DAVID PECCHIA
Consideration of County Wide Police Records System Joint Powers Agreement - Mr.
Pecchia stated that Law Enforcement agencies of Anoka County are pooling resources to provide
a County -wide Records System.
The Anoka County Attorney's Office has completed the necessary paperwork, including the
Joint Powers Agreement and the Records Management Agreement. Mr. Pecchia provided cost
estimates for the entire system and indicated the approximate cost for the City of Lino Lakes
would be $14,342 to be paid in four (4) year increments. There will be additional costs for
equipment and maintenance. He noted the current records system is outdated and will not be
supported beginning January 1, 1999. The cost of transferring current records to the new system
are being explored. All existing records will be transferred. Certain personnel in the Police
Department will try to convert current data.
Council Member Dahl moved to approve the County Wide Police Records System Joint Powers
Agreement, as presented. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried
unanimously.
Update, 1998 Storms Funding - Mr. Pecchia stated the damage costs incurred for the storms on
May 15 and June 26, 1998, will total $423,604. The administrative costs allowed by FEMA total
$9,472, for a grand total of $433.076.
The Federal Disaster Grant Funding will reimburse the City $327,175. State matching funds will
reimburse the City $63,540 later in 1999, after the Legislature appropriates the funding. The
remaining costs of $42,361 are left for the City to cover from local resources.
The storm costs have been or will be paid by the City from reserve balances. Requests for
reimbursement have been filed with the State and Federal agencies to recover their pro -rata share
based on the disaster aid grants. Through November 30, 1998, the City has paid for storm costs
of $237,037 and been reimbursed $183,025 by FEMA.
• The City will join other communities in asking the Legislature to cover the local share of the
storm costs.

known as the Reiling development and the adjacent abandoned road right-of-ways, the City has
