6.0 Cash Manaaement Procedures:_
Cash management is essential to a good investment program. The City Administrator has
responsibility to organize and establish procedures for effective cash management, based

mature or are purchased.
7. Each month the investment records will be balanced to the financial records.

securities dealer to investors, such as cities, with an agreement to repurchase the
securities at a specified future date. The investor receives a given yield while holding the
security and the repurchase price is guaranteed in advance. The length of the holding
period is tailored to the investor - usually of very short duration. Rates are .related to
Treasury Bills, federal funds, and loans to government security dealers by commercial
banks.

higher than Certificates of Deposit - depending on market supply and demand.
7. Money Market Funds are short term, high quality investments sold by large banks.
These instruments include Treasury Bills and notes, Certificates of Deposits, Commercial
Paper, Banker's Acceptances, and Federal Agency Securities.
8. State of Minnesota & it's Agencies - Bonds that are issued by the State of Minnesota
or any of its agencies. The bonds are backed by the full faith of the State of Minnesota or

Media Relations Office `Vashinaton D.C. Tel. 202.622.4000
For Release: 11/06/01 Release No: IR -2001-106
WASHINGTON —The Internal Revenue Service today announced the optional
standard mileage rates to use for 2002 in computing the deductible costs of operating
an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving expense purposes.
The amounts for the various deductible costs for use of a car will be effective
January 1, 2002, and are as follows:
• The standard mileage rate for the cost of operating a car is 36.5 cents a mile for
all business miles driven. The rate for 2001 was 34.5 cents a mile.
• The standard mileage rate for the use of a car when giving services to a
charitable organization remains at 14 cents a mile.
• The standard mileage rate for use of your car for medical reasons is 13 cents a
mile. The previous rate was 12 cents a mile.
• The standard mileage rate to use when computing deductible moving expenses
is 13 cents a mile. The previous amount was 12 cents a mile.
The primary reason for the mileage rate increases is the rise in gasoline prices
during the past year.
The standard mileage rates for business, medical and moving purposes are
based on an annual study of the fixed and variable costs of operating an automobile.
An independent contractor conducted the study on behalf of the IRS. The charitable
standard mileage rate is provided by law.
Revenue Procedure 2001-54 was released today to formally announce these
standard mileage rates. It contains additional information on these rates and it will
appear in Internal Revenue Bulletin 2001-48, dated November 26, 2001. It will also be
available through the "Advance Notice for Tax Professionals" section of the IRS Web
site at www.irs.gov.

Council Meeting Date: January 8, 2002
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Getschow, City Administrator
Agenda Item: Resolution 01080213: A Resolution Adopting the
2002 Fee Schedule
The City has annually adopted fees for City licenses, permits, and administrative services
at the first meeting of the year. This annual item is presented for approval once again in
resolution form for 2002.
Enclosed for discussion and approval are proposed fees for 2002, along with a resolution
approving those fees.
There are only two fees that have proposed changes for 2002:
1. Service Availability Charge. As is evidenced by the enclosed memo, the Met
Council sets this fee for what the City will pay for service connection charges.
The City's practice is to match the fee charged to resident's/developers with the
Met Council fee.
3. Copies. Staff feels that 10 cents per copy maybe a more appropriate charge than
25 cents per copy. This is mainly due to the fact that the service is mainly used
by city residents producing a relatively low volume of copies.
ENCLOSURES:
1. 2002 Fee Schedule for License, Administrative, and Permit Fees
2. Met Council Memo regarding Service Availability Charges (SAC) Fees
3. Resolution 010802B: A Resolution Establishing 2002 License,
Administrative Services and Permit Fees.

TO: ALL MONTHLY SAC REPORT PREPARERS
SUBJECT: SAC FORDS FOR THE YEAR 2002
Enclosed with this letter is a supply of monthly Service Availability Charge (SAC) reporting forms and
the Procedures Manual which has been completely updated for the year 2002. Here are some key notes
relaters to the SAC program:
1) The base SAC unit rate in effect as of January 1, 2002, will m $1,200.
2) All SAC fees collected by the community in 2002 are to be remitted to the
Metropolitan Council - Envirorunental Services (lviCES) at the 2002 rate regardless of
when the permitting process began. The rate to be charged is the rate in effect at the
time of payment.
3) MCES Form 92D is rewired for reporting all sewer -connected building demolitions
as they occur, to be placed on record as potential SAC units of credit. To be eligible for
future credit all previously unreported 2001 demolitions must be declared on MCES
Form 92D and remitted with your December 2001 monthlyport.
4) Remember that a SAC credit is not used on MCES Form 92A to offset a SAC charge
until there is a new use of the site.
5) In order to simplify the reporting procedure, Forms 92E, 92F, and 92RCR have been
eliminated.
A description of the SAC system and the SAC procedural manual is on our web site at www.metrocouncil
. org/environment/rates&billing/sac.htm. Should you desire any additional forms or assistance concerning
SAC reporting, please contact Sandra Selby at (651) 602-1118. Your continuing cooperation is

Council Meeting Date: January 8, 2002
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Rick Getschow, City Administrator
Agenda Item: 2002 Staff Compensation
Attached is the proposed compensation schedule for 2002 union and non-union staff.
There are two components from the union contract and the personnel policy that dictate
compensation changes. The first component is the market equity adjustment, or "Stanton
analysis". According to city policy, this adjustment is based upon what other seven -
county metro cities with population between 1,500-4,000 pay in comparable positions.
For union employees, the union contract states that Stanton adjustments must be agreed
upon each year with a minimum increase of 3%. There are set minimum percentages for
2001-2003 that have been agreed upon in the new union contract. For the three union
postions, the market analysis did.not yield a result that required an increase greater than
the minimum that is identified in the contract.
The second component of annual staff compensation is the merit adjustment. These are
based on performance evaluations and a formula set in the City's personnel policy and/or
the union contract with union members. This year the inflation figure is 1.5%. A
percentage of that 1.5% inflation figure is applied to evaluations that are: satisfactory
(85%); consistently exceeds requirements (95%), and outstanding (105%). Performance
evaluations were completed before January 4th
