City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Public Hearing, Resolution 8580, a Resolution to Consider an
Off-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License for Keshav Enterprises,
Inc., Located at 2408 County Road I
Background:
In accordance with Chapter 502 of the Mounds View City Code, a public hearing is required
for all liquor licenses. Keshav Enterprises, Inc., is requesting an Off-Sale Intoxicating Liquor
License located at 2408 County Road I (former SNAP Market).
On March 28, 2016, the City Council considered a liquor license for Keshav Enterprises, Inc.
The City Council denied approval of the license because the property was delinquent in their
property taxes. In accordance with the City’s Liquor Code:
Subd. 2. Places Ineligible for License:
a. No intoxicating liquor or wine license shall be granted for operation on
any premises on which taxes, assessments, utility bills or other financial
claims of the City are delinquent or unpaid. (Amended, Ord. 843, 5-20-10)
Mr. Ankur Chopra of Keshav Enterprises, Inc., will be appearing at this City Council meeting
to answer any questions.
Discussion:
Mr. Ankur Chopra of Keshav Enterprises, Inc., submitted all required city liquor license
application materials and fees. Staff has not received a Certificate of Liability Insurance.
This license would be contingent in receiving this certificate. The following investigations and
inspections have been conducted to determine whether there is cause for the City to deny the
application:
Police Inquiry and Investigations (Mounds View Police Department)
Staff submitted a background check application to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal
Apprehension (BCA) on Ankur Chopra. In addition, the City has submitted a background
check on Keshav Enterprises, Inc., in accordance with the City Liquor Code. All background
checks have been received and are satisfactory.
Applicant owns a liquor store in Brooklyn Park called City Liquors. Staff contacted the City of
Brooklyn Park and there were two violations on record: 2009: Sale to a minor; 2010: Sale of
a minor.
Item 07A
May 23, 2016, City Council Meeting
Page 2
City Billing (Mounds View Finance Department)
This building has no outstanding utility bills.
As of Thursday, May 19, 2016, 2408 County Road I continues to be delinquent in their
property taxes. It appears the owner has made a payment towards the delinquent property
taxes after the March 28th City Council Meeting. However, according to Ramsey County
Property Records, the owner is still delinquent in the amount of $10,162.02 (at the March 28th
City Council Meeting they owed $28,686.28). Attached is the Property Tax Payment
information from the Ramsey County Property Tax Division.
Fire Inspection (Mounds View Fire Marshal)
Before they open, Keshav Enterprises, Inc., would be required to have a fire inspection. This
license will be contingent on a satisfactory fire inspection from the Fire Marshal.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends opening the Public Hearing for comment. If property taxes are not paid in
full before the start of this City Council Meeting, then Staff recommends denial of the liquor
application. The property would ineligible for an Off-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License in
accordance with the Mounds View City Code §502.04, subd 2a. However, if the City Council
wishes to approve this license contingent on payment of property taxes by a certain date,
receipt of a Certificate of Liability Insurance, and a satisfactory fire inspection, then staff
prepared a resolution with these listed contingencies. If approved, this license will expire on
June 30, 2017.
Respectfully Submitted,

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Brian Erickson, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8537, Awarding Construction Contract for the 2016
Street and Utility Improvement Project – Area I
Background:
The City is in the process of reconstructing 26 miles of City-owned streets and associated
underground utilities as part of the Streets and Utilities Improvement Program (Program). The
next, and final, project area of the Program scheduled for construction is Area I which contains
3.6 miles of streets and is located in the northeast part of the city. The project includes:
• St. Michael Street between Oakwood Drive and County Road I
• St. Stephen Street between Oakwood Drive and County Road I
• Jackson Drive between Hillview Road and County Road I
• Quincy Street between the northern dead end and County Road I
• Interstate I-35W Service Road between Cornell Drive and Pinewood Drive
• Hillview Road between Jackson Drive and Interstate I-35W Service Road
• Oakwood Drive between its westen dead end and Interstate I-35W Service Road
• Terrace Drive between Jackson Drive and Interstate I-35W Service Road
• Pinewood Drive between Jackson Drive and Interstate I-35W Service Road
The City Council has taken the following steps, thus far, specific to Area I of the Street and
Utility Improvement Program:
• 08/24/15 – Authorized engineering design & preparation of bidding documents
(Resolution 8449)
• 11/23/15 – Considered stormwater infiltration basin (SIP) appeals (Resolution 8482)
• 11/23/15 – Approved non-standard street design and parking restrictions for Area I
(Resolution 8483)
• 02/08/16 – Approved the plans and authorized advertisement for bids (Resolution 8514)
Discussion:
The Council approved bidding documents and their advertisement resulted in the City receiving
six (6) bids. They were opened and publicly read aloud on March 15, 2016. The bids were then
tabulated, checked for errors and corrected in accordance with contract requirements by Bolton
& Menk, Inc (BMI). Bid amounts ranged from $4,080,913.79 to $5,203,689.10. The low bid was
submitted by Douglas-Kerr Underground, LLC of Mora, MN. The low bid is $56,186.21 below
the engineer’s estimate and the difference between the two low bids was $163,190.86. BMI has
estimated the total construction cost of Area I at $4,137,100. This cost is split among the State
Aid participating street and stormwater improvements at $670,167 and the non-state aid or local
improvements at $3,466,933.
Both staff and BMI checked with other municipalities and consultants that have worked with
Douglas-Kerr Underground, LLC and they received satisfactory recommendations on their past
performance. BMI has provided a letter recommending that a contract in the amount of
$4,080,913.79 be awarded to Douglas-Kerr Underground, LLC and it is attached to this report.
This amount is the estimated construction cost but actual construction costs may differ due to
quantity variation in the 165 individual unit price bid items. Additionally, unknown conditions
may arise that don’t fit into the bid items. For this reason, a construction contingency of 5% or
$204,000 is recommended to deal with these unknowns in a timely manner and not delay
construction.
BMI has provided a fee estimate to provide engineering services for the construction phase of
the project, which includes administration, engineering, inspection, surveying and closeout of
the project. Compensation will be actual hours worked plus reimbursable expenses for a
maximum estimated fee of $147,200. Should the project extend into 2017 it is likely this fee will
increase to account for additional hours to be worked. Staff will request an additional estimate
and present that to the Council for approval in the event that is required.
Public Works is in the process of seeking fee proposals to provide geotechnical engineering and
material testing during construction. This testing will be required by MnDOT’s State Aid office
for the MSA streets on the project. The testing will include soil, concrete and bituminous testing
and is a normal requirement for street and utility construction to insure quality control. These
proposals will be presented at a future Council meeting but are estimated at approximately
$40,000.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution awarding the construction
contract to Douglas-Kerr Underground, LLC of Mora, MN in the amount of $4,080,913.79 for the
2016 Street and Utility Improvement Project – Area I. In addition, Bolton & Menk, Inc should be
authorized to provide required professional engineering services associated with the
construction phase of the project. If adopted, a neighborhood meeting will be held on April 27
and construction is anticipated to begin in mid-May.

From: Brian Erickson, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8539, Approve Plans and Specifications and Authorize
Advertisement for Bids for CSAH 10 Trail Segments 6 and 11
Background:
The City of Mounds View has been improving and adding to the trail system throughout the city.
As part of the 2016 – 2020 Five Year Financial Plan Mounds View included the construction of
County State Aid Highway 10 (CSAH 10) Trail Segments 6 & 11, City Project No. 2015-C03.
The City Council has taken the following steps, thus far, specific to CSAH 10 Trail Segments 6
& 11:
• 05/26/15 – Authorized engineering design & preparation of bidding documents
(Resolution 8420)
• 11/09/15 – Authorized Bolton & Menk to proceed with the design (Resolution 8477)
Discussion:
Since the authorization of this project on May 26, 2015 Bolton & Menk , Inc. (BMI) has prepared
a design for use in soliciting public bids for constructing trail segments 6 and 11 along CSAH 10.
The design includes the construction of bituminous trail, lighting, and pedestrian ramps on the
east side of CSAH 10 from Red Oak Drive to Groveland Road (segment 6) and the west side of
CSAH 10 from north of Moe’s Sports Bar to Woodale Drive (segment 11). This design has been
reviewed by Ramsey County and at this point it is ready for advertisement.
The total project cost is shown below:
Engineer's
Estimate
Segment 6 138,736.00$
Segment 11 265,399.00$
Add Alt 1 99,393.00$

Total Construction 511,373.00$
Contingency (5%)25,568.65$
Construction Admin (2.5%)12,784.33$
Engineering Fee 122,332.00$
Total Estimate 672,057.98$
TOTAL PROJECT ESTIMATE
As part of the design process staff asked that BMI include two additional alternate bid items.
These are items that may or may not be included at the time of contract award and allow for the
possibility of additional amenities as funding permits. For this project the two alternates are:
1. Install lighting on existing trail from Edgewood Drive north to Long Lake Road.
2. Modify/remove existing trail crossings along Edgewood Drive to prevent possible driver
confusion due to two trail crossings in close proximity.
The next step in the project development of CSAH 10 Trail Segments 6 & 11 is the bid phase.
This involves advertising the project, distributing plans and specifications, answering questions,
and issuing clarifications for bidding requirements, reviewing and tabulating bids received and
making an award recommendation. BMI will provide assistance with this phase of the project.
If the attached resolution is adopted, bidding documents will be finalized and project advertised
in the official City newspaper (Sun Focus) and a regional trade publication for three weeks
before bid opening. A bid opening date of April 25, 2016 is proposed, with Council
consideration of award on May 9, 2016. Construction is anticipated to begin in the late spring ro
summer.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving bidding
documents and authorizing advertisement for bids for the CSAH 10 Trail Segments 6 & 11, City
Project No. 2015-C03. Doing so will allow the project to stay on track for a 2016 construction
schedule.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Brian Erickson, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8540, Approve County Road I Concrete Rehabilitation
Project Cost Share Agreement with Ramsey County
Background:
As part of Ramsey County’s Transportation Improvement Plan, the county has scheduled a
concrete rehabilitation project on County Road I between County State Aid Highway 10 and I-
35W.
Discussion:
This project includes concrete pavement restoration, catch basin repair, pedestrian curb ramp
replacement and the replacement of the temporary traffic signal at County Road I and Quincy
Street. In addition, Ramsey County will convert County Road I from four traffic lanes to three.
This will improve safety for motorists making left turns; provide shoulders for bicycle and
service vehicles and create safer crossings for pedestrians.
Work is anticipated to begin in the summer or fall of 2016 and will take approximately three
(3) weeks to complete. During the construction, County Road I will remain open to traffic;
however, there may be short-term lane closures or detours. Temporary, alternative access
plans for driveways will be established with property owners if necessary as the concrete
cures.
The signal replacement at Quincy Street will remove the cable supported signals and replace
them with a standard signal/overhead cross arm configuration. Two of the four signal legs
associated with this intersection are part of Mounds View’s street network, thus the city is
responsible for the purchase and installation of half of the signals at this intersection. Quincy
Street is part of the Municipal State Aid Street system and this work is eligible for
reimbursement through state aid. The signal replacement cost including engineering and
construction administration is estimated at $175,199.60.
In addition to the signal replacement, there are several panels that will be replaced due to a
water service repair that was performed previously. The patch is currently a temporary
bituminous patch that the county will replace with the project. The estimated cost of this
patch is $9,330.40.
The total estimated cost for the City of Mounds View is $184,529.00. Included in this
estimate are design and construction engineering fees related to this work. It should be
noted that the actual cost to the City will be based on actual bid amounts. Prior to award of
the construction contract, Ramsey County will seek the City’s concurrence. The current
Street Improvement (Fund 485) budget includes an amount of $125,000 for this; however,
there is additional funding in that budget available that can be used for completing this
project.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached Cost Share Agreement with
Ramsey County.
Respectfully Submitted,
Brian L. Erickson, P.E.
Director of Public Works/City Engineer
