The City is planning to use bonds to finance 4 projects in 2026 and 2027. Because of the timing of the expenses and projects, it is recommended that the attached reimbursement resolution be approved in order to finance appropriate expenses at the time of issuance, likely in early 2027. The City will recognize savings by combining the projects into one bond future issue by saving issuance costs. The City has the capacity to cash flow the costs until the issuance of the bonds without it impacting its bond rating. The amount shown in the resolution is $8 million, less than the $8.4 million planned in the CIP, as the 2026 Street project costs came in lower than expected. The final bond amounts will be determined at a later date as we learn more about future project costs and available cash. ISSUE BEFORE CITY COUNCIL Should the City Council approve a reimbursement resolution for various Capital Projects to be reimbursed through future bonding? RECOMMENDATION If removed from the consent agenda:Motion to Resolution 2026 -015,a resolution declaring the official intent to reimburse certain capital expenditures from the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds and establishing compliance with reimbursement bond regulations under the Internal Revenue Code.

This information is compiled into an Engineering Design and Construction Standards Manual for use by staff and the development community. The latest version of the Manual is dated January 2022. The standards have been established to set minimum requirements to be met for new public infrastructure projects in the City with the intent of constructing consistent and compatible infrastructure systems throughout the community; to clearly communicate with the development community these minimum expectations and requirements; and to expedite plan design, preparation and City plan review and approvals. To the extent practical these standards also apply to the improvement or reconstruction of existing public infrastructure. The engineering design standards and guidelines have been established to address the most common project elements and are to be used in conjunction with the requirements set forth by applicable codes, laws and ordinances, recognized industry standards, good engineering practice and specific project needs. Omission of reference in these standards and guidelines does not relieve responsibility for compliance with these requirements. In addition, the provisions of these standards and guidelines are not intended to prohibit the use of alternative systems, methods or components. Professional engineering judgement and ingenuity is encouraged to adapt to specific project needs. However, varying from the standards and guidelines will only be permitted with the approval of the City, after performing due diligence to ensure the design is equivalent or superior to the prescribed elements of the guideline. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council approve the Engineering Design Standard Updates and Revisions dated March 2026? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The Engineering Design and Construction Standards Manual is a living document that is reviewed and modified from time to time by City staff to adapt proactively to changing conditions to remain current, address best practices and extract additional economic value and performance as needed. Changes are often based on recommendations from Engineering, Planning, Public Works, the construction observation staff or other City staff, the development community, and other stakeholders. Changes made by the City Engineer are periodically brought forward as revisions to the Engineering Design and Construction Standards Manual to formalize the City’s approval. The notable design standard additions and revisions in this update include the following: 1.Incorporate MnDOT’s 2025 Standard Specifications for Construction and update all existing references. 2.Incorporate private street requirements in the design standards based on the Inwood Townhomes development design. 3.Update the stormwater design standards based to incorporate best practices, access needs, and include requirements for filtration basins previously not included in the standards. 4.Include requested material or product changes from other city departments in the manual including, but not limited to, fire hydrant nozzle changes, watermain service material changes, light fixture product updates, and street sign changes.

CITY OF LAKE ELMO By: __________________________________ Mayor (Seal) ATTEST: ________________________________ City Clerk STAFF REPORT DATE: March 17,2026 REGULAR TO: Mayor and Councilmembers FROM: Jason Stopa, Community Development Director AGENDA ITEM: Letter of Support for Valley Community Center CORE STRATEGIES: ☒ Vibrant, inclusive, connected community ☒ Responsive, transparent, adaptive governance☐ ☐ Managed Growth ☐ Efficient, reliable, innovative services ☐ Balanced Finances now and future ☐ Resilient Infrastructure BACKGROUND: The Valley Community Center (VCC) is proposing a community center at the Lake Elmo Elementary School site at 11030 Stillwater Blvd N and are applying for grants to purchase the site. Then school board has agreed to sell the site to the VCC. The VCC first presented the project to City staff since 2024. Community services is a permitted use in VMX. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Does the Council want to issue a letter of support for the Valley Community Center? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The VCC will provide a project update. FISCAL IMPACT: None OPTIONS: 1. Approve the letter of support 2. Deny the letter of support 3. Amend the letter of support RECOMMENDATION: Motion to approve the letter of support for the Valley Community Center. ATTACHMENTS: Draft letter of support The mission of the City of Lake Elmo is to provide planned, quality public services consistent with the City’s character in a fiscally responsible manner in partnership with our community. 3880 Laverne Ave N | Lake Elmo | MN 55042 | (651) 747-3900 | lakeelmo.gov Tuesday, March 10, 2026 Dear Board of Directors of a local foundation, On behalf of the Mayor and City Council of the City of Lake Elmo, we are writing to express our awareness of and support for the Valley Community Center Partners’ proposed community center and its application for funding through your Spring 2026 Acquisition Funding request. The City is aware of the proposed community center at 11030 Stillwater Blvd, Lake Elmo, MN 55042 on the corner of Lake Elmo Ave N and Stillwater Blvd, and of the organization’s intentions to develop a community hub that would serve residents throughout the St. Croix Valley. We agree that the site holds signiflcant merit and that the potential future use aligns well with the City of Lake Elmo’s comprehensive planning goals, including thoughtful growth, expanded community amenities, and improved access to shared public resources while retaining the heirloom vibrancy of the Village. We understand that the Valley Community Center Partners’ application to your foundation is expressly for funding to secure the purchase of the approximately 12.86 acres of land ideal for a community center. With the foundation’s support, Valley Community Center Partners would be able to take the critical action necessary toward moving this vision forward. The community hub concept is proven to be a platform for delivering multiple public services more efficiently. A multi-generational public asset that holds the potential of offering community services in one location refiects a thoughtful approach to avoiding duplicative facilities while improving efficiency and accessibility for residents and visitors alike. We appreciate the forward-thinking vision behind this project that will be a catalyst for growth, providing jobs as well as health and wellness opportunities for our community for generations to come. Once land is secured, potential public partners can be more clearly identifled and the capital scope fully deflned, allowing for the design of an asset that appropriately meets the needs of Lake Elmo residents, visitors, and the broader Valley community. The City of Lake Elmo recognizes the potential long-term community value of this initiative and supports Valley Community Center Partners’ efforts to pursue the land acquisition grant. Sincerely, Mayor Cadenhead 1 STAFF REPORT DATE: 3/17/2026 REGULAR TO: City Council FROM: Sophia Jensen, Senior City Planner AGENDA ITEM: Northstar 3rd Addition Final Plat, Final PUD, and Development Agreement REVIEWED BY: Jason Stopa, Community Development Director Jack Griffin, Bolton and Menk Consultant Engineer Nathan Fuerst, Bolton and Menk Consultant Planner CORE STRATEGIES: ☒Vibrant, inclusive, connected community ☒Efficient, reliable, innovative services ☒Responsive, transparent, adaptive governance ☐Balanced Finances now and future ☒Managed Growth ☐Resilient Infrastructure BACKGROUND: On December 20, 2022, the City Council conditionally approved Preliminary Plat and PUD requests by GWSA Land Development (dba Gonyea Custom Homes, hereafter the “Applicant”) for a single family home development consisting of 200 units on 101.39 gross acres northwest of the intersection of Lake Elmo Ave N and Stillwater Blvd N.

No changes have been proposed to the deviations requested by the developer since preliminary plat approval. The submittals have been reviewed against the preliminary plat and zoning standards. The proposed request is generally consistent with the preliminary plat and PUD approvals granted in 2022. Below is a table summarizing flexibilities received; Cells in the ‘As Proposed’ column shaded in blue indicate a deviation requested from City Code: Standards (105.12.790) V-LDR Requirement: (Single-Family Dwelling) As Proposed - Single Style Lots As Proposed - Villa Style Lots Number of Lots 36 69 Minimum Lot Area 9,000 square feet 7,898 sq ft 5,776 sq ft Minimum Lot Width 70 feet 65 feet 51 feet Max Impervious Cover 35% 50% 50% Minimum Setback - Front 25 feet 25 feet 25 feet Minimum Setback - Side 10 feet principal building 5 feet garage or accessory structure 7 feet (15 feet between bldgs.) 7 feet (15 feet between bldgs.) Minimum Setback - Rear 20 feet 20 feet 20 feet Maximum Height 35 feet Reviewed with building permit Reviewed with building permit 3 Environmental and AUAR Review. The entire Village Area was subject to an Alternative Urban Areawide Review (AUAR) when the area was brought into the Municipal Urban Service Area (MUSA). The AUAR was updated in early 2022 as required. No further environmental review is required. The AUAR Fee will be required to be paid prior to release of the final plat. Design Standards. Sample elevations and site plans were submitted and reviewed at the time of preliminary plat approval. The Developer did not seek any flexibility to applicable design standards. Building permits will be reviewed for conformance with site design, bulk standards, exterior materials, and fenestration prior to issuance. Parking and Driveways. No deviations are being granted for parking and driveways associated with the future single-family homes in this development. Conformance will be reviewed at the time of building permit submittal. Parks and Trails. The City Code allows the City to require cash in lieu of land. During its preliminary approvals, the City determined it would take ownership of Outlot A, which is roughly 30 acres. Due to the land in Outlot A being both difficult to access, and to use as parkland, the City determined to provide a credit for that area of 50% of the overall land dedication requirement. The Developer is also proposing trails as part of the development, those areas shall not exceed 25 percent of the total required park dedication. The Developer has paid all required park dedication for the whole development with the 1st addition. This includes the dedication of Outlot A as a City Park and the fee of $218,876 which has been added to the park fund. Signs. The development plans do not include any proposed signage. The Developer has indicated they are planning to seek sign permits for signage after the development has received final approvals. CONSISTENCY WITH PRELIMINARY PLAT: The process for review a of subdivision is established in Title 103 of City Code.

C. Subdivision and Lot Information GWSA Land Development, LLC is proposing the 3rd Addition of North Star. The preliminary plat included an amenity lot with a gathering area and pool along with 20 acres of upland open space for a City park next to Sunfish Lake. The approved plan proposed 72 lots 65’ wide and 128 lots 51’ wide. The 3rd Addition Final Plat to be named North Star 3rd Addition, will consist of 34 lots 51’ wide. The proposed development is located on the former Schiltgen Farms property at the corner of Stillwater Boulevard and Lake Elmo Avenue North. The site consists of approximately 101.39 gross acres with wooded slopes, wetlands and Sunfish Lake to the west, Legacy at North Star to the north and Lake Elmo Elementary to the east. The remaining Schiltgen Parcel is south separated by Stillwater Boulevard. There are three access points to the North Star development. The entire development will provide 43.97 acres of open space, 56% of the upland area excluding ROW. North Star will be a mixture of one- and two-story single-family homes on 65’ and 51’ lots. Most of the neighborhood will back up to natural open space or ponds with very few back-to-back lots that will provide a very open feel to the neighborhood. The architecture will be similar to Legacy at North Star. Due to the fact the proposed development falls within the shoreland of Sunfish Lake, it is subject to the City’s Shoreland Regulations. To develop to the existing land use designation and guidance in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan of V-LDR, a PUD is required. V-LDR guidance allows 1.5-3.0 units/acre. We are proposing 2.28 units/acre in the entire development. i. Final Plat Name: North Star 3rd Addition ii. Lot Tab included with plans iii. Open Space dedicated in 1st Addition along Sunfish Lake (Outlot A) = 29.932 acres total , 20.826 acres above OHWL. The overall development will have .851 acres of dedicated trail. iv. 13.486 ac of wetland in the entire development. No wetland in 3rd Addition. v. Dedicated ROW: Stillwater Blvd = 3.38 acres, Lake Elmo Avenue = 2.96 acres, Interior 3rd Addition ROW = 1.47 acres. vi. Lot Legal Descriptions included on Lot Tab with plans D. Issues Addressed since Preliminary Plat All issues that were raised during the preliminary plat have been addressed. The engineering, landscaping, fire, and Washington County comments were addressed. The legal descriptions of the property have been corrected to only include the north Schiltgen Parcel, MNDNR approved the shoreland tiering, all conditions were met for VBWD approval, and all other required permits are in place. E. Density and Open Space Land Areas: Overall Development Area: 101.39 gross acres Wetlands: 13.49 acres Site Area for Density Calculations: 87.90 (101.39 – 13.49) Total Proposed Dwelling Units: 200 Density – (200 / 87.90): 2.28 Shoreland: 53.20 acres Opens Space within Shoreland: 28.38 acres Total Open Space: 43.97 acres F. Infrastructure Improvements The development will have access to Lake Elmo Avenue and Legacy at North Star development. The main access will be via Lake Elmo Avenue with two additional accesses from the north via Legacy at North Star. Two accesses were provided in North Star 1st Addition. Additional right of way was provided on both Lake Elmo Avenue and Stillwater Boulevard for future road improvements. The stormwater was designed to meet the City and Watershed standards. Additional storage was provided for all future County Road improvements and for City regional ponding. The entire development will utilize water reuse. The sanitary sewer is stubbed south of the railroad and will access the entire development. Water will connect in multiple locations. The development will connect the trail from Legacy at North Star along Lake Elmo Avenue to the south and eventually connect to a future trail along the south side of Stillwater Boulevard. North Star 1st Addition brought sewer underneath the railroad and across Stillwater Boulevard. The water connected to the south and the northwest entrance to the site. North Star 2nd Addition provided trail in front of platted lots that will connect to the trail in Legacy at North Star. G. Neighbor Concerns North Star 3rd Addition will be the final phase of the development and should have minimal impact to the neighbors. H. Conflicts With Nearby Land Uses Our proposal is in-line with future guidance for the property. The proposal doesn’t impact any wetlands and the PUD within a Shoreland Overlay District will guarantee that Sunfish Lake isn’t impacted. All development will be clustered away from the lake with over 50% open space in the Shoreland District. I. Burden on Infrastructure Our proposal is in-line with the future guidance for the property per the Comprehensive Plan. The City has an AUAR in place that would have studied the impacts prior to guiding the property. We are connecting to a new sewer extension that was intended to serve this property. Most of the traffic will enter and exit via County roads. The site is proposing water re-use for irrigation to help ease the burden on the water supply. J. Lakeshore Access The City has been deeded the open space adjacent to Sunfish Lake for park dedication which will provide lake access to the public. K. Parks and Open Space The development will have a 1.35-acre private HOA amenity lot with a gathering space and other amenities for the residents. As part of the preliminary plat approval, the City voted to accept over 20 acres of land adjacent to Sunfish Lake for 50% of the park dedication fee. Park dedication and fees for the entire development were paid in North Star 1st Addition. L. Development Schedule We plan to start infrastructure improvements in the spring of 2026.

Respectfully, February 4, 2023 Ben Hetzel, City Planner City of Lake Elmo 3800 Laverne Avenue North Lake Elmo, MN 55042 Re: DNR Approval of the Preliminary Plat and PUD for Schiltgen South Dear Mr. Hetzel, Thank you for submitting to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) the Preliminary Plat and PUD for Schiltgen South PUD in Lake Elmo. Minnesota’s shoreland management rules provide a comprehensive set of standards to preserve and enhance the quality of surface waters, conserve the economic and natural environmental values of shorelands, and provide for the wise use of water and related land resources. In accordance with Item #9 in the city’s conditions of approval for the Preliminary Plat and PUD, we reviewed the PUD and tiering plan submitted by GWSA Land Development, and determined it is compliant with the requirements in state rules and the city’s shoreland ordinance for residential PUDs in shoreland. • The developer properly conducted a tiering and density evaluation to determine the allowable number of dwelling units in the shoreland district. • The PUD sets aside over 50% of the area within the shoreland district as open space. Per Item #3 in the city’s conditions of approval, the city will be taking ownership of the large Outlot A along Sunfish Lake and will be requiring the developer to obtain permits for any passive recreational features such as walking trails in Outlot A. • Per Item #10 in the city’s conditions of approval, the applicant shall provide for the preservation and maintenance, in perpetuity, of the open space required by the Shoreland Overlay Zone. The easement must prohibit commercial uses, vegetation and topographic alterations other than routine maintenance, construction of additional buildings or storage of vehicles and other materials, and uncontrolled beaching of watercraft. • The plans and resolution do not propose any water-based recreational facilities such as watercraft mooring facilities or docks. DNR’s approval is contingent upon no docking or mooring facilities at this development. Given that the city will be taking ownership over much of the protected open space, DNR wishes to remind the City of Lake Elmo of the need to manage the open space consistent with the terms of the resolution. Will the developer provide any financial contribution to the city to ensure the open space is maintained in perpetuity as required in Condition #10? Thank you for applying the shoreland PUD standards to this development and for working to preserve and enhance surface water quality.

The project shall conform to the VBWD’s stormwater runoff rate and volume control rule throughout construction. 2. Appendix G of the AE2S January 9, 2023, Stormwater Management Plan lists the minimum pervious areas that will be used for irrigation to conform to VBWD rules. These areas shall be recorded at the Washington County Recorder’s office, so they are preserved. Impervious surfaces greater than those listed in Appendix G will be prohibited. 3. The pond liner specification (Sheet GP1) shall be revised to be consistent with the specification in the Minnesota Stormwater Manual: https://stormwater.pca.state.mn.us/index.php?title=Liners_for_stormwater_management. 4.

Craig Allen, GWSA Land Development, LLC VBWD Permit #2023-01: Schiltgen South January 30, 2023 Page 2 9. The VBWD recognizes that the proposed development’s management of stormwater runoff for volume and rate control includes an assumption that 5.4 acres of new impervious surface area will be created with a reconstructed Stillwater Boulevard (CSAH 14)-Lake Elmo Avenue (CSAH 17) intersection adjacent to the site. The VBWD will allow the excess capacity to be used for the future intersection reconstruction project, as approved by Washington County, the City of Lake Elmo, and VBWD. 10. The applicant must obtain any necessary approvals from other persons and/or entities with ownership interests in the property affected by the proposed project. It is the applicant’s burden to obtain any and all necessary permissions or ownership rights to property not owned by the applicant, including prescriptive easements. The applicant must obtain any necessary permits. 11. This permit is not transferable. 12. The applicant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the VBWD for any and all future liability, causes of action, or claims relating to or arising out of the District’s grant of this permit. Such claims include, but are not limited to, onsite flooding and flooding to neighboring properties. 13. This permit is subject to obtaining all other permits required by governmental agencies having jurisdiction (including an NPDES permit). 14. The VBWD Engineer and Inspector shall be notified at least 3 days prior to commencement of work. 15. Erosion controls shall be installed prior to the commencement of grading operations and must be maintained throughout the construction period until turf is established. Additional erosion controls may be required, as directed by the VBWD Inspector or VBWD Engineer. 16. All disturbed areas shall be vegetated within 7 days of final grading. 17. The applicant is responsible for removal of all temporary erosion-control measures, including silt fence, upon establishment of permanent vegetation at the project site, as determined by the VBWD Engineer and/or Inspector. 18. Valley Branch Watershed District shall be granted drainage easements that cover land adjacent to stormwater management facilities, wetlands, lakes, and lowlands up to their 100- year flood elevations and all ditches, storm sewers, and maintenance access to the stormwater management facilities. Valley Branch Watershed District shall also be granted drainage easements that cover all land used for stormwater management to meet the District’s rules; this includes land irrigated by stormwater, unless the VBWD Attorney approves another mechanism (e.g., Declaration of Covenants) for preserving land irrigated by stormwater. If the VBWD Attorney approves a mechanism other than drainage easements for preserving land irrigated by stormwater, the Managers shall approve of the mechanism prior to execution. 19. The required drainage easements and access easements shall be recorded with the Washington County Recorder’s Office. Craig Allen, GWSA Land Development, LLC VBWD Permit #2023-01: Schiltgen South January 30, 2023 Page 3 20. The minimum floor elevations for all buildable lots in the development shall be recorded in a Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions or on the final plat. 21. Return or allowed expiration of any remaining surety and permit closeout is dependent on the permit holder providing proof that all required documents have been recorded (including but not limited to easements) and providing as-built drawings that show that the project was constructed as approved by the Managers and in conformance with the VBWD Rules and Regulations. 22. This permit becomes invalid if (1) the work is not initiated within 1 year of permit issuance, (2) work is idle for 12 consecutive months, or (3) work is not completed within 3 years of the permit issuance date.

H. The action or inaction of the City shall not constitute a waiver or amendment to the provisions of this Agreement. To be binding, amendments or waivers shall be in writing, signed by the parties and approved by written resolution of the City Council. The City's failure to promptly take legal action to enforce this Agreement shall not be a waiver or release. I. This Agreement shall run with the land and will be recorded against the title to the Property at the Developer’s expense. The Developer covenants with the City, its successors and assigns, that the Developer has fee title to the Property being final platted and has obtained consents to this Agreement, in the form attached hereto, from all parties who have an interest in the Property, including, but not limited to, the fee owner and the mortgagees; that there are no unrecorded interests in the Property being final platted; and that the Developer will indemnify, defend, and hold the City harmless for any breach of the foregoing covenants.

The City may initiate such action, including legal or administrative action, as is necessary for the City to secure performance of any provision of this Agreement or recover any amounts due under this Agreement from the Developer, or immediately draw on the Security, as set forth in this Agreement. 32. ENFORCEMENT BY CITY; DAMAGES. The Developer acknowledges the right of 23 LA515\163\1077757.v2 the City to enforce the terms of this Agreement against the Developer, by action for specific performance or damages, or both, or by any other legally authorized means. In the event of a default by the Developer as to construction or repair of any of the Subdivision Improvements or any other work or undertaking required by this Agreement, the City may, at its option, perform the work and the Developer shall promptly reimburse the City for any expense incurred by the City. This Agreement is a license for the City to act, and it shall not be necessary for the City to seek an order from any court for permission to enter the Subdivision for such purposes. If the City does such work, the City may, in addition to its other remedies, levy special assessments against the land within the Subdivision to recover the costs thereof. For this purpose, the Developer, for itself and its successors and assigns, expressly waives any and all procedural and substantive objections to the special assessments, including, but not limited to, hearing requirements, and any claim that the assessments exceed the benefit to the land so assessed. The Developer, for itself and its successors and assigns, also waives any appeal rights otherwise available pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 429.081. The Developer also acknowledges that its failure to perform any or all of the Developer’s obligations under this Agreement may result in substantial damages to the City; that in the event of default by the Developer, the City may commence legal action to recover all damages, losses and expenses sustained by the City; and that such expenses may include, but are not limited to, the reasonable fees of legal counsel employed with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement. 33.

During the warranty period, the Developer agrees to repair or replace any Subdivision Improvement, or any portion or element thereof, which shows signs of failure, normal wear and tear excepted. If the Developer fails to repair or replace a defective Subdivision Improvement during the warranty period, the City may repair or replace the defective 24 LA515\163\1077757.v2 portion and may use the Security to reimburse itself for such costs. The Developer agrees to reimburse the City fully for the cost of all Subdivision Improvement repair or replacement if the cost thereof exceeds the remaining amount of the Security. Such reimbursement must be made within forty-five (45) days of the date upon which the City notifies the Developer of the cost due under this paragraph. The Developer hereby agrees to permit the City to specially assess any unreimbursed costs against any lots in the Subdivision which have not been sold to home buyers if the Developer fails to make required payments to the City.

SUMMARY OF SECURITY REQUIREMENTS. To guarantee compliance with the terms of this Agreement, payment of special assessments, payment of the costs of all public Subdivision Improvements, and construction of all public Subdivision Improvements, the 25 LA515\163\1077757.v2 Developer shall furnish the City with an irrevocable letter of credit or a cash escrow or a combination of a cash escrow and letter of credit (the “Security") in the amount of $1,242,000. The bank originating the letter of credit shall be determined by the City to be solvent and creditworthy. The letter of credit shall substantially be in the form attached to this Agreement and must be approved by the City. The amount of the Security was calculated as itemized on Exhibit B. If at any time the City reasonably determines that the bank issuing the letter of credit no longer satisfies the City’s requirements regarding solvency and creditworthiness, the City shall notify the Developer, and the Developer shall provide to the City within forty-five (45) days a substitute for the letter of credit from another bank meeting the City’s requirements. If the Developer fails to provide the City within forty-five (45) days with a substitute letter of credit from an issuing bank satisfactory to the City, the City may draw under the existing letter of credit. This breakdown is for historical reference; it is not a restriction on the use of the Security. The City may draw down the Security, without notice, for any violation of the terms of this Agreement or if the Security is allowed to lapse prior to the end of the required term. If the required public Subdivision Improvements are not completed at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Security, the City may also draw it down. If the Security is drawn down, the proceeds shall be used by the City to cure the default. 35. REDUCTION OF SECURITY.

Plans and Specifications were approved, and an Advertisement for Bids was Ordered at the January 20, 2026 meeting. The project was advertised on QuestCDN.com and in the Stillwater Gazette in accordance with the Minnesota Competitive Bidding requirements. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council Accept Bids and Award a Construction Contract for the CSAH 14 Watermain Improvements? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The CSAH 14 Watermain Improvement project includes the replacement of approximately 1,700 LF of watermain. The watermain will be installed using directional drilling to minimize roadway impacts and closures with full excavations required at hydrants and tie-in locations at each intersection. A 14-inch HDPE pipe will be installed (equivalent 12-inch watermain) to replace the existing 6-inch watermain to complete a trunk network loop in support of the recent expansion of the Old Village area. The alignment and depth of the new watermain have been coordinated with Washington County to avoid conflicts with future Stillwater Boulevard reconstruction projects. The watermain will run beneath the existing CSAH 14 eastbound drive lane. There are no plans for Stillwater Boulevard reconstruction in the County’s five-year CIP. Construction of the improvements will require a lane closure to westbound traffic on Stillwater Boulevard from Layton Avenue to Lake Elmo Avenue. 39th Street will be utilized to move westbound traffic back to CSAH 14 during construction as a coordinated plan with Washington County to work with the closure of Lake Elmo Avenue at TH 36. Contractor bids were received and opened electronically on March 5, 2026. The City received eight bids for this project, with Miller Excavating, Inc. providing the lowest bid in the amount of $687,206.54.

THANK YOU! NATE STANLEY, CITY ENGINEER MARCH 17, 2026 STAFF REPORT DATE: March 17, 2026 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Nina Kraemer, Finance Coordinator REVIEWED BY: Clarissa Hadler, Finance Director AGENDA ITEM: Utility Financial Management Plan Updates CORE STRATEGIES: ☐ Vibrant, inclusive, connected community ☐ Efficient, reliable, innovative services ☐ Responsive, transparent, adaptive governance ☒ Balanced Finances now and future ☐ Managed Growth ☒ Resilient Infrastructure BACKGROUND: In 2025, the Finance Department completed a comprehensive utility study that informed updated utility rates and revised assumptions from the original long-range plan prepared by Northland Securities, Inc. Based on this analysis, sewer and water rates each increased by 20% over 2024, stormwater rates remained unchanged, and new Multi-Family Residential water, sewer, and stormwater rates were implemented. The same increase percentages for each of the funds was also recommended for 2026, but that has since been revised. Previous rate adjustments occurred in 2016, 2020, and 2023 following the City’s engagement with Northland Securities, Inc. to prepare a long‑range financial management plan for the water, sewer, and stormwater funds. Those increases averaged approximately 3% in each of those years and were heavily subsidized by development revenues. Updated assumptions—including the 2026–2035 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and the City Council’s directive to review stormwater fees—required adjustments to the 2025 utility study for 2026 rates. ISSUE BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL: 1) Does the Council support the modified plan and rate adjustment for 2026? REVIEW: The financial management plan is a key tool used to set rates and plan for future operations and capital investments in the utility funds. The plan incorporates capital improvement projects from the 10‑year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), projected growth in customers and operations, financing strategies, and fund balance policies to determine the rates needed to sustain each utility fund. Assumptions have been updated from last year’s plan to reflect the 2026–2035 CIP, actual 2025 customer counts and usage changes, MPCA grant information, and updates to the development activity table. One of the more significant updates to the Northland Securities model for 2025 and future years was the change in the number of new MPCA‑funded connections and irrigation customers. The MPCA has halted funding on water extensions paid via the 3M settlement funds, in favor of funding more treatment plants. This change significantly decreased revenues including connection fees and ongoing service charges, in both the water and sewer fund. These revised assumptions demonstrate how heavily the City’s utility operations rely on development-driven revenues. The City received a one‑year MPCA grant (via the 3M Settlement) reimbursing treatment plant O&M through December 31, 2026 for Well 2’s temporary plant (completed in 2025). Staff will pursue new grants and extensions for the new treatment plants, but future funding is not guaranteed. The utility model therefore assumes no O&M reimbursement after 2026. As finance staff evaluated the updated model, we also revisited the long-term financial goals for each utility fund. • Revenue Sufficiency – The level of revenue required to support projected operating costs, capital improvements, and debt service obligations, while maintaining adequate reserves for future capital needs of the Utility Funds. • Debt Load – Limit new borrowing and gradually reduce total debt over time to improve financial stability. • Expense Recovery – This ensures that all costs — including non-cash items like depreciation — are fully recovered through rates. The idea is that rates should reflect the true cost of providing service. Proposed 2026 Rate Adjustments The proposed increase for 2026 differs slightly from the plan presented in 2025. The updated 2026 proposal maintains the 20% increase in Water rates, lowers the Sewer rate increase to 15%, and introduces an 8% increase for the Stormwater rate, as shown in the table below. Service 2025 Plan 2026 Proposal Change Notes Water +20% +20% Unchanged Sewer +20% +15% Reduced from 20% Stormwater 0% +8% New increase Overall bill % change ~13% ~14% Note: “Overall bill % change” based on typical single-family usage of 6000 gallons per quarter. The reduced Sewer rate increase is intended to lessen the financial impact on residents and keep the overall change to a standard utility bill at or below a 15% increase. While this lower Sewer rate does slightly affect the fund’s cash balance and delays full expense recovery, the impact is manageable. Debt Per on-going conversations regarding the city’s current overall debt load, we also wanted to avoid issuing new debt unless necessary or beneficial. In the current model, we’ve planned for no new debt for capital projects in the Water Fund or Sewer Fund and should be able to pay cash for most capital projects, and as such, the Water Fund could be debt free after 2045. After the workshop meeting on March 10th, we did update the Stormwater Fund to include an issuance of bonds for our larger Lion’s Park drainage improvement project in 2028. There could be an additional opportunity to issue up to $3 million in debt for projects to manage cash flow or take advantage of low interest rates. Stormwater Fund In an effort to begin addressing depreciation expenses in the Stormwater Fund, we are proposing an 8% rate increase in 2026. This increase will generate a modest revenue boost and represents the first step toward sustainably funding long‑term infrastructure replacement and maintenance needs. We do recognize that any rate increase has an impact on customers, but this proposal reflects a balanced approach to maintaining service levels while planning responsibly for future costs and is essential to avoiding larger increases in the future. The Stormwater rates will likely change as staff and engineering start further review of the ordinance, components and projects. See Appendix F for Stormwater Fund reports and charts. Proposed Fees and Quarterly Bills Appendix A shows the Proposed Rates for 2026 under this model. Tables in the attachments show an illustration of a low, middle, and high quarterly bill in both Residential and Commercial. A low-volume user will see a change in their quarterly bill of around $24, or $8 per month. Comparisons of Other Cities Appendix B shows the comparisons of fees to other cities. These were the same cities selected in the Northland comparison in 2023 and in our utility study in 2025. All but three of those comparable cities have or are planning water treatment plant(s). The charts show 2026 fees, with Lake Elmo 2026 (with an overall increase of ~15%) ranking is 8th highest in the group, up from the Lake Elmo 2025 ranking of 10th. We do have 2026 fee data for all the cities as of the writing of this report. Development / Connection Charges The Water and Sewer Availability and Connection Charges (WAC, WCC, SAC, SCC) have not been adjusted since 2013, remaining at $3,000 for availability and $1,000 for connection charges for each fund. Staff did not increase these charges for this model; however, they plan to review these fees in the future. This approach is reasonable given the rising construction costs observed in recent years. These connection fees vary widely from city to city, both in their rates and in how they are applied, and it would require a significant amount of staff time to provide a thorough analysis of these differences. Multi-Family Rates A multi-family rate was adopted for all of the funds last year. Water – A per unit base rate was added, which aligns with many other cities’ practices, and acknowledges the large draw of these facilities on the water system. And a single tier usage rate was adopted in conjunction the base unit, which acknowledges that the higher-gallon usage on those meters is due to the multiple units and is generally basic residential utilization like cooking, bathing, and laundry. Sewer – A per unit base fee and a single tier usage fee were adopted that align with regular residential and commercial rates. Stormwater –Multi-Family Stormwater fees are treated like Commercial, as the stormwater run-off will be similar to commercial with a lower number of permeable surfaces on each property. Future Model Improvements / Challenges • Improved Depreciation Modeling – current model is a flat 40-year depreciation for future assets, and a more accurate depiction would consider individual assets at estimated useful life. A review of all of the current fixed assets and their depreciation schedules is taking place now that we have software that can track our fixed assets more appropriately. • Engineering will be completing a review of Stormwater so those fees may change in the future as we use their updates in this model. • Break Capital and Operations into separate funds for reporting to better visualize the impacts of these revenue and expense types. Summary Attached are tables and charts in Appendices C through F that show the more detailed financial projections for each of the funds. To reiterate an earlier point, these models are based on assumptions. Both the assumptions and real‑world conditions—such as development activity, water usage, interest rates, and construction costs—can shift results from year to year. This model also assumes no outside funding for O&M for the new treatment plants beyond 2026. If that funding continues in future years, the model will need to be updated. We use our best estimates to project how these funds will perform and what adjustments may be necessary to support long‑term financial sustainability. Additionally, rate decisions are set annually. While we are modeling an overall 14% increase for 2026, the actual rates for years beyond 2026 will generally be set in future budget cycles unless the Council determines it is in the City’s best interest to set them earlier. Based on the above, our recommended utility fund fee schedule for 2026 is shown in Appendix A. We are happy to discuss alternatives to these recommendations with Council, as well as provide alternative scenarios if requested ahead of time.
