SPECIAL ORDER OF BUSINESS/RECOGNITIONS/PROCLAMATIONS Lauderdale City Council Meeting Minutes, June 24, 2003 Page 2 8. INFORMATIONAL PRESENTATIONS 9. PUBLIC HEARINGS A. Lot Coverage Variance for the construction of a single-family house and attached garage at 1703 Eustis Street. Assistant to the City Administrator Bownik stated that Roland Karjalahti, 1703 Eustis Street, is applying for a 2.5% variance to the lot coverage requirements to go from 30% to 32.5% for the purpose of constructing a house and attached garage. This property is currently a vacant lot that was assigned a separate property identification number (PIN) through Council action in 2002. The lot is 40 feet x 119 feet for a total square footage of 4760. The new house and attached garage is proposed to be 1548 square feet, which is 32.5% of the lot coverage. The site plan shows the structure meeting front, rear, and side yard setback requirements. The front yard setback is being met using the average of the adjacent structures rule because the houses on either side of the property are set back 25 feet from the front property line. Bownik stated that Karjalahti's application addressed that fact that the lots on this block of Eustis Street are only 119 feet deep, compared to 129 feet for the lots directly across the alley on that block of Malvern Street. Most lots in the City have equal depths. Bownik also stated that a lot coverage variance would not be needed if the covered porch proposed for the front of the house was changed to an open deck because only covered structures are considered when calculating lot coverage. Bownik then stated that the Planning Commission did not meet to discuss the variance request but did receive the information packet and have been invited and encouraged to attend the council meeting in order to provide input to the Council. The Mayor opened the public hearing at 7:17 p.m. Roland Karjalahti, 1703 Eustis Street, stated that the main reason for applying for this variance was the lot depth issue. The fact that that the lots on his block of Eustis Street are only 119 feet deep, compared to the depth of 129 feet for the lots directly across the alley and throughout the rest of the City. He also stated that the house that he is constructing is an award-winning design for urban homes on small city lots by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). Lauderdale City Council Meeting Minutes, June 24, 2003 Page 3 The Mayor closed the public hearing at 7:19 p.m. B. Side Setback Variance for the construction of a deck at 1951 Pleasant Street. Assistant to the City Administrator Bownik stated that Daniel Gumnit, 1951 Pleasant Street, is applying for a 2 -foot variance to the side yard setback requirement along the south property line to go from 5 feet to 3 feet for the purpose of reconstructing an existing open deck. The house, which is more than 6 feet from the property line has a 3 -foot -wide open deck on the south side of the house that is currently 3 feet from the property line. Therefore, the deck is proposed to be rebuilt at the current non -conforming setback distance of 3 feet. Bownik also stated that a shed encroaching beyond the north property line in to the adjacent property has been removed. Bownik then stated that the Planning Commission did not meet to discuss the variance request but did receive the information packet and have been invited and encouraged to attend the council meeting in order to provide input to the Council. The Mayor opened the public hearing at 7:22 p.m. Daniel Gumnit, 1951 Pleasant Street, stated that his construction project is not encroaching any further into the side setback area than currently exists. He also stated that his neighbor to the south supports the project. The Mayor closed the public hearing at 7:23 p.m. 10. ACTION A. Lot Coverage Variance for the construction of a single-family house and attached garage at 1703 Eustis Street. Council member Christensen requested clarification on the fact that the new address for this house will be 1703 Eustis Street and not 1701 Eustis Street as stated in the memorandum. Council member Gill -Gerbig stated that she could support this variance due to the small lot depth issue and the fact that this request is for a minimal amount of extra lot coverage. Motion by McCloskey, second by Gill -Gerbig to approve the 2.5% variance to the lot coverage requirements to go from 30% to 32.5% for the purpose of constructing a house and attached garage. This is approved due to the fact that this property has a minimal amount of lot depth as compared to other lots thus creating the need for a lot coverage variance. Roll: Yes: all. Motion carried. Lauderdale City Council Meeting Minutes, June 24, 2003 Page 4 B. Side Setback Variance for the construction of a deck at 1951 Pleasant Street. Council member Gill -Gerbig stated that she supported this variance because it does not propose any further encroachment into the side setback than already exists. Also, the request is minimal and is needed for ingress and egress from the house to the deck. Motion by Christensen, second by Gianetti to approve the 2 -foot variance to the side yard setback requirement along the south property line to go from 5 feet to 3 feet for the purpose of reconstructing an existing open deck. Roll: Yes: all. Motion carried. C. Approval to reschedule the July 22, 2003 City Council meeting to July 29, 2003. Motion by Gill -Gerbig, second by McCloskey to reschedule the July 22, 2003 City Council meeting to July 29, 2003. Roll: Yes: all. Motion carried. 11. REPORTS A. Day in the Park.

Two weeks ago, a memorandum was provided to the City Council with contact information and State Statute language. As you know, the city can not regulate the type of adult foster home at 1889 Eustis. In fact, the State of Minnesota has apparently told Ramsey County that they should not even notify the municipalities about these particular foster homes. Nonetheless, we still have been receiving phone calls questioning the regulations and questioning what the State and the County has told residents and the City regarding the types of adults that will be living in this foster home. We have asked a public health representative(s) from Ramsey County to attend the meeting to update the Council on this foster home and to answer any questions that the Council or residents attending the meeting may have on this issue. I have included in this packet the memorandum that I provided previously in this packet for your review. ENCLOSURES: 1. Contact Information 2. State Statutes Chapter 245A - regarding adult foster care Last week City staff learned that an adult foster care program was moving into the recently sold house at 1889 Eustis Street. After speaking with the foster care manager and program director, a Ramsey County foster care official, the City of Roseville, and the State of Minnesota Dept. of Public Health, the City gained the following information: ➢ The State of MN, statute 245A.11 part II, regulates all aspects of the adult foster care system. The residential programs must have 5 or less individuals in care that are age 55 or over and do not have serious and persistent mental illness or a developmental disability. The home in Lauderdale will consist of 4 individuals age 55 or older with a staff member assisting the individuals. The State of MN contact is Kelly St. Johns at 651-297-7520. ➢ The adult foster care group moving into the City of Lauderdale is currently living in Roseville near County Rd. B and Midlothian Rd. ➢ The City of Roseville has 30-40 similar type homes and rarely has any contact with owners or residents of the home. (Contact—Dawn Munson, 651-415- 2120) ➢ The Ramsey County contact is Linda Messer (651-266-4240) who oversees the adult foster care program and assures the County that the home is in good shape for the occupants and meets all fire and building codes. ➢ Dungarin Minnesota, Inc. based out of St. Paul runs the adult foster care program. The contact for the company is David Watson at 651-699-6050. 1v1111111iJV La L3 W LULL.J GVVG� G`}J['j, j 1 Mihnesota St£itUtes 2002, Table of Chapters_ Table of contents for Chapter 245A 245A.11 Special conditions for residential programs. Subdivision 1. Policy statement. It is the policy of the state that persons shall not be excluded by municipal zoning ordinances or other land use regulations from the benefits of normal residential surroundings. Subd. 2. Permitted single-family residential use. Residential programs with a licensed capacity of six or fewer persons shall be considered a permitted single-family residential use of property for the purposes of zoning and other land use regulations, except that a residential program whose primary purpose is to treat juveniles who have violated criminal statutes relating to sex offenses or have been adjudicated delinquent on the basis of conduct in violation of criminal statutes relating to sex offenses shall not be considered a permitted use. This exception shall not apply to residential programs licensed before July 1, 1995. Programs otherwise allowed under this subdivision shall not be prohibited by operation of restrictive covenants or similar restrictions, regardless of when entered into, which cannot be met because of the nature of the licensed program, including provisions which require the home's occupants be related, and that the home must be occupied by the owner, or similar provisions. Subd. 2a. Adult foster care license capacity. (a) An adult foster care license holder may have a maximum license capacity of five if all persons in care are age 55 or over and do not have a serious and persistent mental illness or a developmental disability. (b) The commissioner may grant variances to paragraph (a) to allow a foster care provider with a licensed capacity of five persons to admit an individual under the age of 55 if the variance complies with section 245A.04, subdivision 9, and approval of the variance is recommended by the county in which the licensed foster care provider is located. (c) The commissioner may grant variances to paragraph (a) to allow the use of a fifth bed for emergency crisis services for a person with serious and persistent mental illness or a developmental disability, regardless of age, if the variance complies with section 245A.04, subdivision 9, and approval of the variance is recommended by the county in which the licensed foster care provider is located. Subd. 2b. Adult foster care; family adult day care. An adult foster care license holder licensed under the conditions in subdivision 2a may also provide family adult day care for adults age 55 or over if no persons in the adult foster or adult family day care program have a serious and persistent mental illness or a developmental disability. The maximum combined capacity for adult foster care and family adult day care is five adults, except that the commissioner may grant a rage i o1 s http://www.revisor,leg.state.mn.us/stats/245A/1 l .html 6/18/2003 i.ia. ui��vLU LJ LUAU L�..J LVVL� L�✓L 1. 1 1 variance for a family adult day care provider to admit up to seven individuals for day care services, if all of the following requirements are met: (1) the variance complies with section 245A.04, subdivision 9; (2) a second caregiver is present whenever six or more clients are being served; and (3) the variance is recommended by the county social service agency in the county where the provider is located. A separate license is not required to provide family adult day care under this subdivision. Adult foster care homes providing services to five adults under this section shall not be subject to licensure by the commissioner of health under the provisions of chapter 144, 144A, 157, or any other law requiring facility licensure by the commissioner of health. Subd. 3. Permitted multifamily residential use. Unless otherwise provided in any town, municipal, or county zoning regulation, a licensed residential program with a licensed capacity of seven to 16 persons shall be considered a permitted multifamily residential use of property for the purposes of zoning and other land use regulations. A town, municipal, or county zoning authority may require a conditional use or special use permit to assure proper maintenance and operation of a residential program. Conditions imposed on the residential program must not be more restrictive than those imposed on other conditional uses or special uses of residential property in the same zones, unless the additional conditions are necessary to protect the health and safety of the persons being served by the program. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to exclude or prohibit residential programs from single-family zones if otherwise permitted by local zoning regulations. Subd. 4. Location of residential programs. In determining whether to grant a license, the commissioner shall specifically consider the population, size, land use plan, availability of community services, and the number and size of existing licensed residential programs in the town, municipality, or county in which the applicant seeks to operate a residential program. The commissioner shall not grant an initial license to any residential program if the residential program will be within 1,320 feet of an existing residential program unless one of the following conditions apply: (1) the existing residential program is located in a hospital licensed by the commissioner of health; (2) the town, municipality, or county zoning authority grants the residential program a conditional use or special use permit; (3) the program serves six or fewer persons and is not located in a city of the first class; or (4) the program is foster care. Subd. 5. Overconcentration and dispersal. (a) Before January 1, 1985, each county having two or more group residential programs within 1,320 feet of each other shall submit to the department of human services a plan to promote dispersal of group residential programs. In formulating its plan, the county shall solicit the participation of affected persons, programs, municipalities having highly concentrated residential program populations, and advocacy groups. For the purposes of this subdivision, "highly concentrated" means having a population in residential programs serving seven or more persons that exceeds one-half of one percent of the population 1 CLT L Vi J http://www.revisor.leg.state.mn,us/stats/245A/1 l .html 6/18/2003 -1- - — - Z pf1- pf a recognized planning district or other administrative subdivision. (b) Within 45 days after the county submits the plan, the commissioner shall certify whether the plan fulfills the purposes and requirements of this subdivision including the following requirements: (1) a new program serving seven or more persons must not be located in any recognized planning district or other administrative subdivision where the population in residential programs is highly concentrated; (2) the county plan must promote dispersal of highly concentrated residential program populations; (3) the county plan shall promote the development of residential programs in areas that are not highly concentrated; (4) no person in a residential program shall be displaced as a result of this section until a relocation plan has been implemented that provides for an acceptable alternative placement; (5) if the plan provides for the relocation of residential programs, the relocation must be completed by January 1, 1990. If the commissioner certifies that the plan does not do so, the commissioner shall state the reasons, and the county has 30 days OR to submit a plan amended to comply with the requirements of the commissioner. (c) After July 1, 1985, the commissioner may reduce grants under section 245.73 to a county required to have an approved plan under paragraph (a) if the county does not have a plan approved by the commissioner or if the county acts in disregard of its approved plan. The county board has the right to be provided with advance notice and to appeal the commissioner's decision. If the county requests a hearing within 30 days of the notification of intent to reduce grants, the commissioner shall not certify any reduction in grants until a hearing is conducted and a decision made in accordance with the contested case provisions of chapter 14. Subd. 5a. Integration of residential programs. The commissioner of human services shall seek input from counties and municipalities on methods for integrating all residential programs into the community. Subd. 6. Hospitals; exemption. Residential programs located in hospitals shall be exempt from the provisions of this section.

Subdivision 1. Application for licensure. (a) An individual, corporation, partnership, voluntary association, other organization or controlling individual that is subject to licensure under section 245A.03 must apply for a license. The application must be made on the forms and in the manner prescribed by the commissioner. The commissioner shall provide the applicant with instruction in completing the application and provide information about the rules and requirements of other state agencies that affect the applicant. The commissioner shall act on the application within 90 working days after a complete application and any required reports have been received from other state agencies or departments, counties, municipalities, or other political subdivisions. (b) An application for licensure must specify one or more controlling individuals as an agent who is responsible for dealing with the commissioner of human services on all matters provided for in this chapter and on whom service of all notices and orders must be made. The agent must be authorized to accept service on behalf of all of the controlling individuals of the program. Service on the agent is service on all of the controlling individuals of the program. It is not a defense to any action arising under this chapter that service was not made on each controlling individual of the program. The designation of one or more controlling individuals as agents under this paragraph does not affect the legal responsibility of any other controlling individual under this chapter. Subd. 2. Notification of affected municipality. The commissioner must not issue a license without giving 30 calendar days' written notice to the affected municipality or other political subdivision unless the program is considered a permitted single-family residential use under sections 245A.11 and 245A.14. The notification must be given before the first issuance of a license and annually after that time if annual notification is requested in writing by the affected municipality or other political subdivision.

Lauderdale City Council Memorandum Council Meeting Date: July 8, 2003 To: Mayor and City Council From: Rick Getschow, City Administrator Agenda Item: Ramsey County- Metropolitan Public Safety Communication System (800 MHz). BACKGROUND: Ramsey County is moving into its next phase of implementation regarding the required Metropolitan Public Safety Communication System (800 MHz). As part of the County moving into this phase of the project, resolutions of support are being requested from each municipality to apply for state-wide or federal funding. The main user of this system would be the Police Department. The Saint Anthony Police Department has already implemented this radio communications system because they are partially in Hennepin County, where the system is already running. The other main user of the system is the Fire Department. The City of Falcon Heights has indicated that they support this initiative. Therefore, there are not any issues or concerns with Lauderdale as it relates to the system at the current time. The Ramsey County background material is included in the packet and does note that the City is not bound in any way by passing this resolution. It basically assists the County in receiving further grant funding. Ail, Eel COW112M 1. June 27, 2003 Ramsey County Letter with Attachments regarding Public Safety Communications/800 MHz 2.

Office of the County Manager Paul L. Kirkwold, County Manager Mk250 Court House 15 West Kellogg Boulevard RAMSEY COUNTY St. Paul, MN 55102-1614 June 27, 2003 Mayor Jeffrey Dains Rick Getschow, City Administrator City of Lauderdale 1891 Walnut Street Lauderdale, MN 55113 SUBJECT: Public Safety Communications/800 MHz Tel: 651-266-8000 Fax: 651-266-8039 e-mail: www.co.ramsey.mn.us I am writing to you about the Metropolitan Radio Board's Metropolitan Public Safety Communication System (800 MHz) and several funding possibilities currently available that can assist us with our participation in this communication system. As you know, the Metropolitan Public Safety Communication System and the Radio Board were initiated in State law with a charge to develop a seamless communication system among all participating agencies/local units of government — an interoperable system. Phase 1. is nearly now Phase 2 (development and funding) is beginning. ova have been cola uy offir.lals ;rom the Radio Board that developing a Ramsey County subsystem is a priority for them during 'Phase 2. The remainder of this letter outlines steps and timeframes developed by the Radio Board and the State Department of Public Safety governing applications for participation in Phase 2. The Radio Board and related 800 MHz funding programs give counties a critical role in planning and developing the statewide system. Under Minnesota law, counties are required to develop county -wide 800 MHz technical and financial plans, and counties must approve all plans and grant applications prepared by any entity located within it. Attachment 1 is material provided by the Radio Board that further explains background and the current situation. It is Ramsey County's intent to work closely with municipalities within the County to design a system that reflects our community/county-wide needs, and to aggressively seek non -local property tax funds for the project. We realize that securing these types of funds is critical because they reduce the amount of local funds needed to build a system, making it possible for us to proceed with this mutually beneficial and important program. The Metropolitan Radio Board and Minnesota Department of Public Safety's Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services have just announced financial incentives to local government participation in the Public Safety Communication system. Initial applications are due July 24, 2003. (See Attachment 1 for specifics on this timeframe.) At this time, Ramsey County is requesting support from the City of Lauderdale to assist us in responding to these recently -announced funding opportunities for Phase 2 development Minnesota's First Home Rule County printed on recycled paper with a minimum of 10% post -consumer content June 27, 2003 Page 2 (Attachment 2). We have been told by Radio Board officials that highest priority will be given to applicants whose jurisdictions have an updated County plan, and resolutions indicatinq the intention to move toward full 800 MHz system participation. (The Ramsey County 800 MHz plan has recently been updated, and the County Board has also passed resolutions to move forward. Copies of these resolutions are included as Attachment 3.) Ramsey County would like to be able to show broad-based support to the Radio Board and Department of Public Safety for full participation from units of local government within the County. A resolution from you will show this support. Attachment 4 is a draft resolution stating willingness to plan for a system, intention to participate in the 800 MHz system, and interest in sharing in any state or federal financial incentives. We have been told by the Radio Board and the State Department of Public Safety that your elected officials passing this resolution by July 24, 2003, will give greater weight to our grant applications. This resolution will not bind your government to anv action or expense, nor does it predetermine any major governance changes. It indicates your interest in planning to join the 800 MHz system and sharing grant proceeds we can secure for development of this system. We are excited about the opportunities available to us as Phase 2 of this communication system is developed. To that end, we are proposing that the Ramsey County League of Local Governments sponsor an informational meeting and discussion with representatives from the Radio Board and jurisdictions that are currently using the system. This meeting is scheduled for Thursday, July 31, from 4:00 — 6:00 p.m., at a location yet to be determined. Your participation will enable us to develop a county -wide planning process we would like to begin in late summer of 2003. Thank you for your attention to the request in this letter and your participation in this vital project. Please contact me at any time to discuss this letter, its contents, or the 800 MHz project. In my absence, you may contact Terry Speiker, at 266-8012, or Connie Catlin, at 266-8011, from the County Manager's Office. They are also working on this project and would be able to answer your questions. Sincerely, A� /��&tl-34 Paul L.

Policies and Procedures 6.4 Aid & Grants to Local Units of Government 5/15/03 5/28/03 TVMB Approval - Signature: 6/6/03 1. Purpose or Objective The purpose of this standard is to define a set of rules and procedures. for carrying out the intent of the statutes governing the Metropolitan Radio Board insofar as they affect the Board's powers to provide aid to local units of government and to provide a portion of the financing of the capital costs for local units of government opting to participate in the Second Phase. 2. Background: The 2002 Minnesota Legislature amended the statutes relating to the Metropolitan Radio Board, allowing the Board to use its general fund money to provide "aid to local units of government for sites and equipment in support of mutual aid and emergency medical communications services." The 2003 legislature further amended the law and defined the Second Phase of the regional system as "the Metropolitan Radio Board providing assistance to local government units building subsystems in the metropolitan area that did not build their own subsystems in,the first phase." A third new provision increased the revenue bonding authority of the Board by an additional $12 million, using a 1.5 -cent per month increase in the'amount of the 9-1-1 surcharge on telephone wire and wireless lines effective July 1, 2004 as the revenue source for the new bonds. Further, the statute restricted the Board's ability to provide funding for the Second Phase by stating that "The proceeds of bonds issued under this paragraph must be used to pay up to 30 percent of the cost to a local of unit of building a subsystem and may not be used to finance portable or subscriber radio sets." These statutory changes were contained in the Anti -terrorism legislation and were passed in response to the attacks on the Pentagon and the World Trade Center of September 11, 2001, as part of an effort to improve Minnesota's ability to respond to a potential attack here. The original law passed in 1995 provides that a design plan for subsequent phases of the system be drafted and adopted by the Board. In keeping with that requirement, the Board has hired 6.4 Aid & Grants to Local Units of Govt. 1 Section # U INTERIM L TTERINI Vegemast Engineering, Inc. to update the original plan, and to provide detailed design specifications for those jurisdictions within the Metropolitan Area that did not opt to participate in the fast phase. Under the provision allowing the Board to assist local units of government, the Board is underwriting the cost of these design plans. 3. Operational Content: The original law creating the Board and the region -wide system required that each county must complete a planning process on whether and how it would participate in the regional system. The plan and any updates or amendments to the plan will serve as the basis for participation. 4. Protocol/ Standard: 1. Local units of government within the metropolitan area are eligible for aid ii a. The governing body of the local unit approves, by resolution, a request for participation in the regional system or requests assistance for constructing capital facilities that the Board determines may be used at some future time as part of the regional system or a local subsystem of the regional system. b. Funding for the local entity's share of the costs is identified. c. A technical plan for implantation is consistent with the plan developed and approved by the county within which the entity is located and is approved by the governing body of the county. 2. Local units of government are eligible for up to a thirty percent reimbursement from the capital bond fund of the Board for the following classes of expenditures and follow the process and procedure outlined in paragraph 5 of this set of standards. Reimbursable capital costs are generally limited to the following: material and personnel costs involved in civil design and construction at sites, such as site preparation, shelters, towers, roads, easements, and associated elements, including warranties; project management, design, construction and installation of microwave antennas and microwave radio equipment including training and warranties; project management, computer software, engineering, design "and installation of equipment racks; radio, computer, and other associated equipment permanently mounted or housed in racks and/or in shelters, including training and warranties; antennas and cables; fixed or mobile network monitoring equipment; personnel and material costs of installation of equipment at the dispatch center or control center for the subsystem commonly known as the central electronics bank, equipment designed to facilitate in -building coverage, and associated civil construction at the control center. Not eligible are the costs of portable or mobile radio sets for use on. the system nor are the costs of dispatch consoles, except upgrades or purchases that are required to interface with the new 800 -MHz system. 3. In -building coverage, or any other enhancements, will not be eligible for matching funds for any entity that is a subscriber of a county subsystem unless it is an independent PSAP and recognized and approved as such in the county plan. The Board will consider funding in -building 6.4 Aid & Grants to Local Units of Govt. 2 Section 4 INTERLNI INTERL I coverage and other enhancements for dependent subscribers of the county subsystem only if the application comes from the county. In such a circumstance, the project must be approved by the county as part of its plan and it will count against the county's reimbursement entitlement. S. Procedure: 1.. The first step for a local unit of government or other eligible agency in applying for grant funds from the Radio Board under the provisions outlined above is to pass enabling authorization in the form of a resolution by the governing body of the local unit or other eligible agency. If the unit is an entity other than a county, the authorization must be ratified by the governing body of the county. 2. A copy of the resolution(s) should be forwarded to the Board, together with a letter requesting participation and generally outlining the plan, its estimated cost and a projected timetable. The resolution(s) should include a request for financial assistance and should provide detail as to the overall plan to finance the project. The Board is authorized to provide up to 30 percent of eligible capital costs. Documents should be forwarded to the Metropolitan Radio Board c/o: Executive Director Metropolitan Radio Board Metropolitan Counties Government Center 2099 University Avenue St. Paul, MN 55104 3. A hearing will be scheduled with the Board's Technical Operations Committee (TOC), at which time a technical review of the local unit's preliminary plans shall be conducted. The TOC shall determine whether the request is consistent with the approved county plan as established under the 1995 law and as subsequently updated or amended. It shall also determine whether the request is consistent with the detailed system design, including authorized changes. The TOC shall make a recommendation to the full Board. 4. The Board will act on the application at its next regular meeting. If the Board approves of the plan,, the local unit may proceed with implementation. If the Board does not approve, it shall provide the reasons for denial in writing, together with a list of changes it requires. 5. When detailed design plans are complete, a copy of the design plan, including any changes in cost estimates and construction schedules must be submitted to the Board for TOC and staff review. The Board shall approve a total amount of the project that is eligible for payment by the Board and shall identify a funding source within in the Five Year Capital Improvements Plan. This amount shall not exceed 25 percent of the approved plan cost. The Board is limited by law to a 30 percent reimbursement. Subject to the availability of the funds, additional amounts up to a total of 30 percent may be made available at a later date. 6.4 Aid & Grants to Local Units of Govt. 3 - Section # INI TERLVI LNi TER NI 6. During construction, the local unit, the Board and, if applicable, MnDOT shall negotiate a cooperative agreement. The agreement must contain a provision that the funds expended by the Board shall be used only for capital costs related to participation in the region -wide 800 MHz system. The agreement also must include a provision allowing for complete- disclosure and audit of the financial records of the local unit associated with the Second Phase construction. 7. As capital expenditures are incurred, copies of invoices should be submitted to the Board at least quarterly. If the invoices and supporting documentation are consistent with the approved plans, the Board shall reimburse the local unit as specified in paragraph 5 above within 90 days of submittal and approval of the Metropolitan Radio Board. 6. Manat emeni The Executive Director of the Board is responsible for managing this procedure. 6.4 Aid & Grants to Local Units of Govt. 4 Section # STEPS FOR PARTICIPATION Counties 1.

METROPOLITAN RADIO BOARD INFORMATIONAL MEETING FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 2003 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1. What is the definition of participation? Participation in the system can take place on several levels. Full participation generally refers to those governmental entities that have invested in the additional infrastructure required to provide full coverage in their geographical areas, have installed dispatching equipment that operates solely on the regional system, and have a plan to migrate all or most subscriber radio users to the system. Partial participation refers to entities that continue to maintain and use legacy equipment (VHF, UHF, conventional analog 800MHz), but have installed and use, or plan to use, some 800 MHz subscribers for specific purposes. An example might be an entity that equips some squad cars with system -compatible radios to make interoperations with fully participating agencies easier. Subscriber -only participants include those who have made no infrastructure investment, but use radios that are on the system and are satisfied with the coverage available on the existing backbone. An example would be the St. Paul School District. What is important in the context of receiving homeland security grants is that the first priority for receiving funds will be given to those entities and agencies that are committed to becoming full participants as defined above. 2. Do all radio communications need to be on the 800 MHz system for full participation (meaning Police, Fire, and Public Works) or can just one be on? Just one can be on. But if only one comes on, it must be a public safety, first response agency, such as police, fire or EMS. Priority will generally be given to agencies that plan to eventually migrate all public safety agencies to the system, as fostering interoperability—not only between geographically separated cities and counties—but between different agencies within the same city or county, is a key requirement for receiving homeland security grants. 3. What if a county cannot afford to migrate all operations onto the 800 MHz system—can it just center on population centers and still be considered full participants? If a county plans to use the system for only one agency—for example, the Sheriff's Department—it would seem to make most sense to equip every squad car used within the county, as dual dispatching and dual radio systems within one agency would be expensive and cumbersome. Each application will be considered on an ad hoc basis, and the county's approved plan for migration to the system will be considered in making funding decisions. 4. Does the equipment list need to be an exact shopping list? What if we decide to change the radio we would like to buy while waiting for the funds to arrive? The preliminary plan and equipment list that is needed by July 24th does not have to be an exact "shopping list." It should be a free form document that specifies to the extent possible a technical plan for the entity to participate in the regional system and a list of equipment and other resources needed to complete the plan. It must also include an estimated budget with as much specificity as possible If specific makes and models of equipment are known, together with costs, please include them. A final, detailed shopping list will be needed by September 15th in order to qualify for federal COPS and Homeland Security grants. 5. How will the Metropolitan Radio Board and the Department of Public Safety prioritize who is to receive portions of the $7.5 million? Will one agency get all the funds or will the funds be portioned out piecemeal? No one agency will receive all the funds. If there are several qualifying agencies, the Board and DPS will try to be as fair as possible in assisting as many as possible. The first priority for awarding dollars will go to agencies or entities whose governing body has passed a resolution affirming a decision to fully participate in the system, has submitted an approved technical plan and budget, and is ready to build. To the extent dollars are still available after fulfilling needs under priority one, the second priority will go to those entities that have indicated a desire to fully participate, have prepared a preliminary plan and estimate, but have not yet made an irrevocable decision. If the final decision is negative, the grant commitment will be withdrawn The third priority will go to entities that desire to participate, but not fully. It should be understood that the overriding objective for the use of these funds is to get as many entities within the metropolitan area as possible to fully participate. 6. Will the out -state funds ($6 million) be transferred to the metro area if they do not all get used? Possibly. That decision is up to the Commissioner of Public Safety and the Review Committee he has established. The answer may be known after the Statewide Planning Committee meets on July 9, 2003. Fiscal Year 2003 Authorized Equipment List* Not all of the listed equipment would qualify as 800 MHz Equipment 4. Interoperable Communications Equipment — Equipment and systems providing connectivity and electrical interoperability between local and interagency organizations to coordinate CBRNE response operations: • Land Mobile, Two -Way In -Suit Communications (secure, hands-free, fully duplex, optional), including air -to -ground capability (as required) • Antenna systems • Personnel Alert Safety System (PASS) - (location and physiological monitoring systems optional) • Personnel Accountability Systems • Individual/portable radios, software radios, portable repeaters, radio interconnect systems, satellite phones, batteries, chargers and battery conditioning systems- Computer systems designated for use in an integrated system to assist with detection and communication efforts (must be linked with integrated software packages designed specifically for chemical and/or biological agent detection and communication purposes) • Portable Meteorological Station (monitors temperature, wind speed, wind direction and barometric pressure at a minimum) • Computer aided dispatch system • Commercially available crisis management software • Mobile Display Terminals Note: In an effort to improve public safety interoperability, all new or upgraded radio systems and new radio equipment should be compatible with a suite of standards called ANSI/TIA EIA -102 Phase I (Project 25). These standards have been developed to allow for backward compatibility with existing digital and analog systems and provide for interoperability in future systems. The FCC has chosen the Project 25 suite of standards for voice and low -moderate speed data interoperability in the new nationwide 700 MHZ frequency band and the Integrated Wireless Network (IWN) of the U.S. Justice and Treasury Departments has chosen the Project 25 suite of standards for their new radio equipment. In an effort to realize improved interoperability, all radios purchased under this grant should be APCO 25 compliant.
