Councilor absent: Kelly Dolphin. Staff present: Heather Butkowski, City Administrator; Jim Bownik, Assistant to the City Administrator; and Miles Cline, Deputy City Clerk. Approvals Mayor Gaasch asked if there were any additions to the meeting agenda. There being none, Councilor Moffatt moved and seconded by Councilor Grove to approve the agenda. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Gaasch asked if there were any corrections to the minutes of the September 24, 2019 city council meeting. There being none, Councilor Dains moved and seconded by Councilor Grove to approve the minutes of the September 24, 2019 city council meeting. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Gaasch asked if there were any questions on the claims. There being none, Councilor Moffatt moved and seconded by Councilor Dains to approve the claims totaling $116,849.62. Motion carried unanimously. Consent Councilor Dains moved and seconded by Councilor Grove to approve the Consent Agenda thereby approving Resolution No. 100819A, Authorizing Publication of Ordinance No. 19-03 Regarding Front Yard Fences by Title and Summary, the Larpenteur Avenue sidewalk snow removal contract with 8th Day Landscaping, and the 2019 Infrastructure Improvement Project pay request number 5.

LAUDERDALE CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES Lauderdale City Hall 1891 Walnut Street Lauderdale, MN 55113 Page 2 of 3 October 8, 2019 C. City Council Updates Councilor Grove shared that she will be attending a Ramsey County League of Women Voters meeting on October 25. Discussion/Action Items A. Designating Pioneer Press as Official Publication for Legal Notices Butkowski said staff received an email notifying the City that Lillie Suburban Newspaper had gone out of business earlier in the week. Thereafter, staff discussed options for an alternative publication with the city attorney. The only two options were the Pioneer Press and Star Tribune. Based on the number of east metro cities affected by the loss of Lillie Suburban News, the Pioneer Press came up with pricing and a billing method to make for an easy transition to them. As a daily, the Pioneer Press offers the ability to get information out sooner. The downside is that we don't know the number of Lauderdale residents that will see the public notices, much like we aren't positive now. Councilor Moffatt made a motion to appoint the Pioneer Press as Lauderdale's official newspaper for legal publications. This was seconded by Councilor Grove and carried unanimously. B. Resolution Declaring Costs to be Assessed and Ordering Preparation of Proposed Assessment — Resolution 100819B Staff asked the city attorney to prepare the documents necessary to complete the special assessment process now that construction is winding down. In order to complete the special assessment process this year, estimates have been made to derive a final project cost. The cost estimate in the feasibility report was $2,459,830 and the final project cost is expected to be $2,643,000 for a difference of $183,170. As the bids came back over $250,000 higher than anticipated, the difference was expected. The City Council must establish the total amount being assessed for the project. Of the $2,643,000 total project cost (including replacement of the water main), the proposed amount to be assessed is $470,559. Staff and the engineer will finalize the calculations and send notice to affected property owners of their proposed special assessment amount with information about the special assessment hearing scheduled for November 12. Councilor Moffatt made a motion to adopt Resolution No. 100819B A Resolution Declaring Cost to be Assessed and Ordering Preparation of Proposed Assessment. This was seconded by Councilor Dains and carried unanimously. LAUDERDALE CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES Lauderdale City Hall 1891 Walnut Street Lauderdale, MN 55113 Page 3 of 3 October 8, 2019 Set Agenda for Next Meeting Administrator Butkowski stated that the October 22 council meeting may include Metropolitan Council representative Peter Lindstrom, a resolution calling for a hearing on the proposed assessment, the 2020 fund budgets, the September financial report, and the third quarter investment report. Work Session A. Opportunity for the Public to Address the City Council Mayor Gaasch opened the floor to anyone in attendance that wanted to address the Council. There being no parties interested in speaking, Mayor Gaasch closed the floor. B. Community Development Updates Butkowski stated she received a letter from Lauderdale Hollows regarding plans to remove their playground equipment which is on city property. She continued to share that she met with representatives of Master Properties twice last week regarding the redevelopment of Luther Seminary's property in Lauderdale. Finally, discussions are ongoing with St. Paul, Roseville, and Falcon Heights regarding the future of fire services. Adjournment Councilor Moffatt moved and seconded by Councilor Grove to adjourn the meeting at 8:29 p.m. Motion carried unanimously.

This set of laws, commonly referred to as SCORE, is a part of Minnesota's Waste Management Act. The SCORE legislation has provided counties with a funding source to develop effective waste reduction, recycling and solid waste management programs. SCORE funding grants are automatically provided to municipalities in Ramsey County on an annual basis with submittal of a grant application. Last year, Lauderdale received $5,742 to help cover expenses related to the City's recycling program such as administration, promotion, equipment, and collection. We do not know what Lauderdale is eligible for this year because the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency does not provide counties with their allocations until November. However, Ramsey County requires the grant application to be submitted by the end of October. A resolution is required as part of the grant application. Adopting the attached resolution means the city accepts the funding. A grant agreement should be ready for signing in November. OPTIONS: • Adopt the prepared resolution as part of the consent agenda. • Remove from the consent agenda for discussion and action. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: By approving the consent agenda, the Council is adopting the attached resolution. COUNCIL ACTION: RESOLUTION NO. 102219C CITY OF LAUDERDALE COUNTY OF RAMSEY STATE OF MINNESOTA A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING 2020 SCORE FUNDING FROM RAMSEY COUNTY FOR THE LAUDERDALE RECYCLING PROGRAM WHEREAS, SCORE Funding Grants are available to municipalities in Ramsey County for reimbursement of expenses related to administration, promotion, and collection of, recycling materials; and, WHEREAS, the City of Lauderdale has a comprehensive curbside residential recycling program currently in use; and, WHEREAS, these funds will provide Lauderdale with a method of paying for some incurred costs related to the administration of this program and collection of materials, thus aiding in keeping the cost to the residents low; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Lauderdale City Council does hereby authorize staff to submit an application to the St. Paul - Ramsey County Department of Public Health - Environmental Health Section for allocation of 2020 SCORE Funding Grant Monies. I CERTIFY THAT the above resolution was adopted by the City Council of the City of Lauderdale on this 22nd day of October, 2019.

The concerns have been varied including: a breeding ground for mosquitos, housing rodents, and aesthetically unappealing. In discussing the matter with the city's legal council, they advised that the City Council can abate the nui- sance if in violation of: Title 4, Chapter 6: Public Nuisance Whoever by his or her act or failure to perform a legal duty intentionally does any of the fol- lowing is guilty of maintaining a public nuisance, which is a misdemeanor: A. Maintains or permits a condition which unreasonably annoys, injures or endangers the safety, health, morals, comfort or repose of any considerable number of members of the public... The owner of the property received the attached letters concerning this meeting. Additional- ly, neighbors around the property were notified of tonight's hearing on the matter. Also in- cluded are photos and aerials of the tarps. Some have better resolution than others. The aer- ial taken by Ramsey County in 2015 shows the tarps. Their previous aerial taken in 2011 did not show the presence of tarps. The purpose of this meeting is to determine if a nuisance exists by taking comment from the owner of the property and members of the public. If the Council determines that a nuisance exists, it can direct staff to abate the nuisance by removing and disposing of the tarps. OPTIONS: Determine whether the issues at 1937 Pleasant Street are a nuisance that requires abatement.

Maintains or permits a condition which unreasonably annoys, injures or endangers the safety, health, morals, comfort or repose of any considerable number of members of the public;... From our conversations, I understand the tarps in your yard are intended to eradicate weeds in advance of planting new grass. The tarps have been there for multiple growing seasons during which you have made no effort to remove them to plant grass. As such, this letter is notice that you have one week from the date of this letter, October 9, 2019, to remove the tarps from all locations in your yard. Failure to do so will result in a letter notifying you of the date and time the City Council will consider abatement of the violations. As the property owner, you are liable for all costs of removal and will be billed for the cost of the service plus an administrative fee. Unpaid abatement charges will be assessed to the property. I sincerely hope you remove the tarps yourself so the abatement process is unnecessary. I know from previous conversations that your intention is to plant a low -mow grass. Fall is a great time to start grass; there is still time to get that going this year. Please call me if you have any questions - 651.792.7657.

The City Administrator or other designated person shall keep a record showing the cost of removal adjacent to each separate lot and parcel. Notwithstanding any provisions of this section to the contrary, upon removal of all snow, ice, dirt and rubbish by the City, the City Administrator shall prepare and send a bill to the property owner of the abutting property for the cost of the removal services.
