October 3, 2022 Council Workshop Memorandum To: Mounds View City Council From: Administrator Zikmund Date: September 28, 2022 Re: October 3, 2022 Workshop Background: We have a full agenda for our workshop meeting with this memo providing some additional information, guidance for the council to consider on each item, and a proposed schedule to help guide the management of our time. Additionally, I took the Public Comment off the agenda given our full agenda. Certainly if council feels strongly about allowing a measure of time to some public comment that is council’s prerogative. We could also allow it at the end of the meeting. 1. Storm Water Pond Assessment Update: Stantec will be on hand to give us an update on the field work they have been conducting over the past few months. The final report will be done later this year and we will schedule more time at one of the workshops in early 2023. Staff felt it was important to provide an update at this time given the substantive work done to date and Stantec’s ability to share highlights. 2. Community Center Expansion Exploration: Per council discussion and consensus to move forward with the continued exploration of expansion, staff sought out and met with three architectural firms. 13 were contacted. All three will have twenty minutes, including leaving time for council to ask questions. The scope of the work is very limited, concept drawings/renderings and determining accurate costs. Needs and space limitations define the majority of the project; 3 gyms, locker rooms, and updating/upgrading the reception/common areas. Council will be asked to make a decision at the October 10, 2022 council meeting. 20 minutes is scheduled after the 3 presentation for council consensus but more discussion could occur at the October 10, 2022 meeting. 3. Other fund budgets: Council is familiar with other funds, utility, enterprise, etc. – Director Beer’s memo provides complete information. 4. Update of Sign Ordinance: Mayor Mueller asked that the item be put on a workshop agenda for discussion – specific to campaign signs. This is an ordinance change and the timelines in statute to adopt or amend an ordinance would takes us past the current election. Thus, council can begin the discussion and continue as council and time permits.
