City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Heidi Heller, Planning Associate
Item Title/Subject: Public Hearing - Resolution 8009, Consideration of an Amendment
to the O’Neil Property Planned Unit Development (PUD) Agreement
to Reduce the County Road 10 Setback Requirement at 2442
County Road 10; Planning Case PA2012-001
Introduction:
Apple Tree Dental has a purchase agreement to buy the currently vacant building at 2442
County Road 10, on the southeast corner of County Road 10 and Long Lake Road. This
property is zoned PUD, and is part of the O’Neil Property Planned Unit Development. Apple
Tree plans to open a comprehensive dental clinic and house their corporate offices in Mounds
View. They will be doing an extensive interior build-out, and need to make two additions to the
exterior of the building. One of the changes to the exterior includes adding a stair tower to the
middle of the northeast wall of the building (the County Road 10 side). This addition would
encroach into the 30 foot setback from County Road 10 that is required in the PUD Agreement.
Apple Tree Dental is requesting an amendment to the PUD Agreement to reduce the setback
requirement to 20 feet.
Discussion:
The O’Neil Property PUD is a large development that includes the 2442 County Road 10 office
building, Wynnsong movie theater, the small retail mall next to the theater, and the office
building at 2408 County Road 10, next to Moe’s Restaurant. It also originally included another
parcel that is now Moe’s parking lot. The City approved the O’Neil Property PUD in 1998, and
since then there have been challenges with determining the right uses, vacancies and
foreclosure. The 2442 County Road 10 property is considered Parcel A in the development,
and there have been other PUD amendments for this parcel. This parcel was originally
designated for a restaurant use. When attracting a restaurant wasn’t successful, the developer
requested an amendment in 2003 to allow office use, and the current office building was
constructed. After construction, the office building remained vacant until 2006 when the
business “Let’s Get Graphic” showed interest, but they needed a large garage. Another PUD
amendment was done to allow accessory buildings, and print production and fabrication
businesses. The attached garage was then constructed on the building and Let’s Get Graphic
moved in. They moved out a few years later, the building went into foreclosure and has been
vacant ever since.
The building at 2442 County Road 10 is setback 30 feet from the northeast property line
(County Road 10 side), which is the required setback per the PUD Agreement. Apple Tree
Dental is proposing to move the existing staircase that is currently in the middle of the building
to the side of the building in a new stair tower that extends out from the side of the building.
The exterior dimensions of the stair tower are 22 feet wide by 10 feet deep. This addition
would then give the building a setback of 20 feet. City staff recommends that the trail be shifted
over a few feet where it runs next to the stair tower to put some space between the building and
the asphalt.
Apple Tree Dental PUD Amendment
Staff Report November 13, 2012
Page 2
Amendment Process:
An amendment to a Planned Unit Development is processed as would an amendment to an
approved Conditional Use Permit, which is to say that the procedural requirements of Section
1125 of the Zoning Code would be followed. Section 1125 requires that the Planning
Commission and City Council review the request, taking into consideration any and all potential
adverse effects of the proposed amendment.
Relationship to the Comprehensive Plan:
Mounds View’s adopted Comprehensive Plan existing and future land use maps identify the
O’Neil Property PUD parcels as Regional Commercial which is defined as being land use
principally for the provision of goods and services with a primary service area of 10 or more miles.
The proposed dental/medical and office use would be consistent with the Comp Plan.
The geographical area involved:
2442 County Road 10 is bordered by County Road 10 and Long Lake Road on two sides. The
Wynnsong movie theater and adjacent retail center borders on the south side, Wildwood Manor
senior housing building is across Long Lake Road to the west, and the now vacant, former
Snyder’s store is across County Road 10.
The character of the surrounding area:
All of the neighboring uses are commercial or multi-family, but no buildings are immediately
adjacent to 2442 County Road 10. This building is somewhat isolated in that the immediate
surrounding areas are mostly wooded. There is a large distance between this building and the
movie theater and retail center, that is wooded and wetland. The Wildwood Manor property
across the street is also heavily treed, giving privacy to their building.
Neighborhood Impact:
The neighborhood should not be impacted by reducing the required setback. The main impact
will be to the trail that runs parallel to County Road 10, right next to the building at 2442 County
Road 10. The new stair tower would be very close (only a couple of feet) away from the trail.
The demonstrated need for such use:
The applicant knows that there is a market for dental clinics in Mounds View and the surrounding
area. Apple Tree Dental also provides unique dental services (mobile dentistry and surgical
options) that are not offered by other dental clinics, and this particular building is a great fit for
them because of the climate-controlled attached garage for their trucks and mobile equipment.
It appears that amending the PUD to reduce the setback from County Road 10 from 30 feet to
20 feet to allow for an addition to the building should have little to no adverse impacts, and
would be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. Staff supports the amendment to reduce
the County Road 10 setback to 20 feet for the property at 2442 County Road 10.

Staff Report November 13, 2012

Planning Commission Action:
On Wednesday, November 7, 2012, the Planning Commission reviewed the request by Apple
Tree Dental, and voted unanimously 6-0 (Schiltgen absent) to recommend approval of the PUD
Amendment.
Recommendation:
The City Council should take one of the following actions related to the PUD Amendment
request:
1. Approve the PUD Amendment as requested. Resolution 8009 is attached for your
consideration if you should choose this option.
2. Deny the request. To consider this option, the Council will need to direct staff to prepare a
resolution with findings of fact to support the denial.
3. Table action on the request. This option would be appropriate if the City Council should
need additional information or more input before a decision can be made.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8016, Approving a Contract with Ramsey County
for Election Services
Background
On August 8, 2011, the Mounds View City Council approved a one-year contract with
Ramsey County for election services. This contact authorized Ramsey County to assume
primary management and oversight of election activities for the City during the 2012 Primary
and General Elections. This one-year contract was proposed as an introductory
arrangement to be followed by a four-year contract assuming both parties wish to continue.
Discussion
Attached is an election contract between Ramsey County and the City of Mounds View for
election services from 2013 to 2016. Staff did speak to a couple of election judges to
inquire if there were any operational issues related to the 2012 Primary and General
Elections. The issues expressed dealt with communication between Ramsey County and
election judges and election supply issues. Staff believes these issues are minor and could
be addressed and corrected by communicating these issues to Ramsey County.
The current ballot counting machines will need to be upgraded or replaced in the near future.
Ramsey County can no longer get replacement parts with the current machines. According
to number 6 of the 2013-2016 contract agreement, the cost of upgrading or replacing the
voting systems is not included in the agreement and a separate agreement will be submitted
by Ramsey County for approval by the City. Staff will keep the City Council updated when
Ramsey County starts to process of bidding for new election equipment.
The cost of election services through Ramsey County for regular elections for the 2013-2014
calendar years will be $36,500. Ramsey County will provide the cost for the 2015-2016
calendar years to the City no later than April 1, 2014. According to the 2013-2016 contract
agreement, Ramsey County will base the cost for the 2015-2016 budget periods on the
actual cost for the previous similar election years, adjusted as necessary to account for the
following factors:
1. Estimated voter turnout.
2. Labor contracts and agreements for non-represented employees approved
by the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners.
3. Changes in the Consumer Price Index for the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro
area, as determined by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for the previous
two-year period.
4. Changes in State, Federal, or City legal requirements, as applicable.
5. Other factors having a significant impact on election costs.
Item 07C
TUESDAY, November 13, 2012
Page 2
This contract agreement may be terminated by any party by written notice no later than June
1st of any year, effective on January 1st of the following year. If the City did not agree with
the costs provided by Ramsey County for the 2015-2016 years, then City could make the
decision to terminate the contract agreement as long as the City gives proper written notice.
Recommendation
Staff prepared Resolution 8016 which approves a four-year contract with Ramsey County for
election services. Subsequent to the City approval, County staff will present the same
contract to the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners for their authorization. Staff
recommends approval of Resolution 8016.

From: Heidi Heller, Planning Associate
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8010, Reapproving the Final Plat and
Developers Agreement for the “Coventry Senior Living”
Development; Planning Case MU2010-001
Introduction:
On March 28, 2011, the City Council passed Resolution 7757, which approved the final
plat and developer’s agreement for the Coventry Senior Living development. Per City
Code, an applicant has 6 months to record the plat with Ramsey County, and if the
recording does not happen within this timeframe, the plat approval is void. The code
also states that the plat can be reapproved and the applicant given up to another 6
months. Coventry Senior Living is now starting on the project and will be closing on the
properties soon, and then will record the final plat and developer’s agreement. Their
current final plat and developers agreement approval expires on November 14, 2012,
and they need a little more time.
Chapter 1202.07: Final Plat Approval Procedure
Subd. 4. Recording of Final Plat: If the final plat is approved, the subdivider shall, within
six months, record it with the County Register of Deeds or Registrar of Titles and,
within ten (10) days of recording, furnish the City with a reproducible copy of the
final plat showing evidence of the recording; otherwise, the approval of the final plat
shall be void, and the Clerk-Administrator shall so notify the County Register of
Deeds or Registrar of Titles.
Subd. 5. Re-Approval: In the event the plat is not recordable as approved or the
subdivider fails to record within the time prescribed herein, the Council may
re-approve the final plat upon payment of the plat reapproval fee as specified in
Appendix E and the following terms and conditions: a) that the subdivider proves to
the satisfaction of the Council that the delay was caused by conditions beyond the
control of the subdivider, and b) that the extension of time requested has or will
have no adverse effect on the City or property owners of the City, and c) that the
Council shall set the time limit of the extension requested but in no event shall it
exceed six months. (1988 Code §42.05; 1993 Code).

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Mark Beer, Finance Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8008 Electing to Retain the Statutory
Tort Limit on Liability for the 2013 Insurance
Policies
Minnesota Statutes 466.04 provides a limit on municipal tort liability claims. The
attached statute is for the Council’s reference. Cities have the option of waving
this limit if they purchase insurance policies with larger maximum coverage. There
is no reason why the City of Mounds View should waive the statutory limit on tort
liability.
Cities obtaining liability coverage from the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance
Trust must decide whether or not to waive the statutory tort limit. The decision
must be made by the City Council before the effective date of the coverage. The
attached resolution declares that the City of Mounds View does not waive the
statutory limit on tort liability.
Respectfully Submitted,
Mark Beer, Finance Director
RESOLUTION NO. 8008
CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
COUNTY OF RAMSEY

policies to cover the period of January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013; and
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statute 466.04 requires that the City Council elect to not
waive the monetary limits on municipal tort liability prior to the effective date of the
coverage; and
WHEREAS, Waiving the statutory tort limit on liability claims is not in the best
interest of the City of Mounds View.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Mounds

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Thomas Kinney, Chief of Police
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8011, Authorization to Advertise and Create an
Eligibility List to Initiate the Police Officer Hiring Process
Background:
The Mounds View Police Civil service eligibility list for Police Officer is no longer current,
and the police department needs to prepare by creating a new eligibility list for possible
vacancies in the position of police officer. The purpose of this staff report is to seek
approval to create an active Civil Service eligibility list for police officer and seek approval
to begin the process to hire a police officer to fill the future vacancy.
Discussion:
The police officer position is an essential public safety position within the city, and ideally,
having a replacement officer in place, ready to hire, at the time of retirement of the current
officer is critical to maintaining uninterrupted continuity of policing services in the city.
Delaying the replacement of this patrol officer position will result in a reduction of police
service, and could result in additional expenses in terms of overtime cost to backfill the
vacancy.
The cost of advertising and holding a written exam is minimal, as the expense of the written
exam administered is passed on to the applicant in the form of a test fee payable upon the
examination date.
The process of hiring a police officer is anticipated to take approximately three months, so
in order to have an eligibility list for hire at the time of retirement the process will need to be
started as soon as practical.
The Mounds View Police Civil Service Commission has approved the process for hiring a
police officer for the current opening. The commission also approved the dissolution of the
old eligibility list and favors the establishment of a new eligibility list by advertising and
moving forward with the hiring process. This begins with advertising to fill the positions.
Minnesota rules, 6700.0700 set legal requirements for selection standards for peace
officers, and The State of Minnesota Peace Officer Standards and Training Board
regulates the procedures for hiring a peace officer. The required hiring process has
several steps including:
1. Advertisement of positions
2. Police Civil Service Testing (written exam)
3. Interviews of Top Scoring Applicants
4. Scoring of written tests and interviews
5. Test of physical strength and agility to measure job related skills
6. Final selection of candidates
7. Applicants must submit to a thorough background investigation including searches by
local, state, and federal agencies and confirmation of required training and licensing
examinations.
8. Psychological Examination of selected candidates
9. Medical examination by a licensed physician
10. Candidate fingerprints to be sent to the BCA and FBI for clearance.
11. Certification of top three candidates by the Civil Service Commission
12. Final appointment
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval be granted to advertise for a police officer position to create
a current eligibility list to initiate the hiring process.
Respectfully Submitted,

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Thomas Kinney, Chief of Police
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 8019 for Authorization to Dispose of Property at
Auction
Discussion:
The police department has several items no longer in use due to equipment upgrades
occurring this year with the purchase of new digital cameras. As a result, the older
cameras and photo printers are no longer needed.
Rather than simply disposing of these items, this property can be placed up for auction
to potentially generate revenue for the city. Presently, six older digital cameras, 3 photo
printers and other miscellaneous supply items are available to contribute to an
upcoming auction at the Minnesota Department of Administration’s Surplus Services
auction.
Recommendation:
Staff requests approval to dispose of city property consisting of cameras, printers and
other supply equipment at an upcoming state auction.

5. PUBLIC INPUT 28
29
Becky Ness, 6942 Pleasant View Drive, addressed an ongoing issue at her property. She 30
commented she received a bill for using 1,000,000 gallons of water at her home. She requested 31
that the outstanding balance of $918.48 be removed from her bill. She indicated she had not 32
received information on why this usage was charged to her property and requested further 33
information from the City at this time. 34
35
Finance Director Beer stated back in 2003, the Ness’ meter reader stopped working sometime in 36
the 2nd quarter. He commented City policy is to send out a letter explaining the need to replace 37
the meter reader. This letter was sent four times to the Ness family without a response. In 2008, 38
based on Council direction the Ness family was sent a fifth letter and the City was then allowed 39
to change out a meter reader. The new meter reader provided a reading of water used and a bill 40
of $1,400 for water usage. The Ness’ came in to request a test of the meter and the test came 41
back positive, that it was working correctly. He stated this was not an isolated case, as other 42
residents have had large water bills due to leaks within the home. 43
44
Mounds View City Council October 8, 2012
Regular Meeting Page 2
Finance Director Beer reported the Ness family had been making payments on the bill, up until 1
February of 2011. After that time, little progress has been made to pay off the bill. Staff was 2
recommending the outstanding bill be sent to Ramsey County for certification as a special 3
assessment against the Ness family. 4
5
Mayor Flaherty questioned the typical quarterly bill for the Ness family. Ms. Ness estimated this 6
to be $120. Finance Director Beer stated this was the estimate; however, the bill has gone as 7
high as $150. 8
9
Mayor Flaherty indicated the $1,400 bill did cover approximately four years of usage based on 10
the current bills. 11
12
Ms. Ness explained that for the four years the meter reader was not working, she continued to 13
pay the estimate for her water usage. She did not stop paying the City all together. 14
15
Dick Comben, father of Ms. Ness, did not understand how the new reader was able to read the 16
usage over four years. Finance Director Beer explained the City had the last reading and the new 17
reading and 1,000,000 gallons went through the meter. This number provided for the $1,400 bill. 18
19
Ms. Ness disputed that she used 1,000,000 gallons of water over a five year time period. 20
21
Council Member Mueller asked if Staff had an average quarterly use for water usage for Ms. 22
Ness. Finance Director Beer stated he did have that on the property, except for 2003 through 23
2008. 24
25
Council Member Mueller suggested the average for Ms. Ness be used to resolve this situation. 26
She stated the average use of 54,000 gallons per quarter would not equal 1,000,000 gallons of 27
water for the five years. 28
29
City Administrator Ericson commented the property could have had a leaking pipe or a toilet that 30
ran during the time in question. A running toilet can waste two gallons of water running every 31
minute, or 30,000 gallons per week, or 100,000. 32
33
Council Member Mueller explained she had a similar situation at her home when her meter 34
reader failed. She questioned why communication was not made on the Ness’ part. Ms. Ness 35
explained her husband had left several messages with Public Works staff on two occasions. 36
37
Mayor Flaherty requested Staff provide the Council with Ms. Ness’ usage before and after the 38
new meter reader before a decision is made on this issue. The information would come before 39
the Council again on October 22nd. 40

Council would like to proceed with the testing. 2
3
Mayor Flaherty was in favor of proceeding with the testing as the City needed to know if lead 4
paint was an issue prior to repainting the signals. He questioned how the $450 expense could be 5
funded. Finance Director Beer indicated the Council could use either the Special Project Fund or 6
the Street Improvement Fund. 7
8
Council Member Stigney asked if the Council had allocated $25,000 for repainting these signals. 9
Finance Director Beer indicated none of the funds in the Special Project Fund had been allocated 10
at this time. 11
12
Council Member Stigney questioned if the City would have to take immediate action if lead 13
based paint were found on the signals. City Attorney Riggs stated this was not the case. The 14
information would simply assist the Council to take the proper action when funds allowed for the 15
signals to be repainted. 16
17
MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Mueller. To Approve using $450 (not to exceed $450) from the 18
Special Projects Fund to complete a lead based paint assessment on the five County-owned 19
signals on the County Road 10 corridor. 20

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Mark Beer, Finance Director
Item Title/Subject: Financial Report for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2012
Attached is the September 30, 2012 Summary Revenue and Expense Report. I have also
attached our current investment inventory and pooled cash report.
FINANCIAL REPORTS
General Fund:
The City received Local Government Aid of $116,039 in July and should receive the 2nd
half distribution in December. The second half tax settlement will be paid in 2 payments,
one during the third week of November and the second during 1st week of December. This
will amount to about 48% of our tax revenues for the year. Interest revenue and transfers
in and out are recorded at the end of the year. Franchise taxes will end the year below
projections due to lower commodity prices and lower economic activity. Permit revenues
are similar to 2011 and Fines and Forfeitures are up by $10,386 over 2011. A larger
percentage of the City’s revenues are received in the second half of the year as taxes are
collected in the fourth quarter and aids and credits are received in the 2nd half of the year.
Most operating department expenditures are below budget expectations. The Council
made a number of choices early in the year that deferred spending to adjust for the
expected lower revenues and staff has been very mindful of the difficult revenue shortfalls.
The Fire department budget is paid over 8 months so the only expenditure remaining is
dispatching charges from Anoka County for the year and personnel costs for the fire
marshal. Park Maintenance and Vehicle and Equipment maintenance are slightly above
budget due to unplanned repairs and supply costs.
Other Funds:
Community Center operations show a year-to-date deficit of $160,950. A transfer of
$175,000 from the General Fund is budgeted for 2012. Recreation profit from the YMCA
will be received in the 4th quarter and a contract management payment to the YMCA will
be made in the 4th quarter. Banquet Center revenues are $71,500 thru the 3rd quarter of
2012 compared with $61,938 for the same period in 2011. Expenditures are up for the
banquet center due to continued repairs and carpet cleaning. Community Center
operations may need to use fund balance even when the General Fund transfer is
included.
The four utility funds are operating under budget. Water fund revenue is up with a dry
summer. The rate study in the five year financial plan indicates the need for a dime
increase in water rates for 2013 or about $8 annually. The Sanitary Sewer proposed
increase for 2013 is 4% or about $10 annually. The Street Light fund will have a proposed
$.25 per quarter increase or $1 annually. The Storm Water fund indicates no increase for
2013.
Investments:
The City will continue to experience lower investment income as a result of lower rates
most likely through 2014 and into 2015. Investment income for 2012 is $325,174
compared with $354,366 for the same period in 2011. Our portfolio for September 30,
2012 was 28,533,657 compared with $28,964,199 for 2011. I have attached the
September 30th investment statements and pooled cash report for you review.

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has maintained the current discount rate at
0% to .25%. They have indicated that they will keep rates low into 2014. Credit continues
to be tight and is still a concern for small businesses. There is some concern that the
economy might double-dip but that has abated somewhat recently. The Federal Reserve
is currently buying approximately 40 billion in government bonds and mortgages per month
indefinitely as part of the latest quantitative easing program.
State unemployment as of September 30th was 5.8% state-wide compared to national
unemployment of 7.8%. Ramsey County unemployment stands at 6.5%. Economists see
the national number declining slightly in 2013 and into 2014. The State number has been
about 2% below the national rate. The job market is a lagging indicator of an economic
recovery so will be one of the last things to show improvement.
Finance Department Operations – 4th quarter:
Finance staff will be busy during the fourth quarter finalizing the 2013 budget which will
culminate with a truth-in-taxation hearing and adoption of the 2013 budget and tax levy in
December. Delinquent utility bills, administrative offense fines, diseased tree charges and
unpaid property charges were presented to the Council for certification and will be sent to
the County at the end of November. Staff is currently working on our insurance policy
renewal and we will begin preparations for the annual financial audit.
Respectfully Submitted,

School Resource Officer
Beginning this year, Edgewood Middle School became a STEAM magnet school which
means they will be trying to better prepare students in the areas of science, technology,
engineering, arts, and math. As a result, the school underwent some renovations and
revamped its class period schedule to allow for a STEAM class once a week where
students participate in a project orientated class of their choice. One other significant
change at Edgewood is that the school is now involved as part of an integration school
district which means that students from surrounding school districts will be attending
Edgewood in an attempt to desegregate the learning environment and provide cross-
cultural learning opportunities for students.
The SRO began the school year by attending Edgewood Middle School’s all staff
meeting where he assisted with training staff on school crisis procedures and security
measures. The SRO was introduced to the parents of 6th graders at a parent orientation
and answered any questions they had about his role. The SRO began performing his
various duties and functions at the school including:
• developing positive relationships with students and staff
• assisting with traffic flow in front of the school
• maintaining the school’s 2-way radios
• assisting with fire, severe weather, and lockdown drills
• counseling students about bullying, drug use and harassment outside of school
• transporting truant students to class
• using the school camera system to assist the deans with locating incidents of
bullying or harassment
• deescalating out-of-control students
• receiving tips from students and staff regarding issues in the community
• acting as a resource for students with questions about the law
The SRO received a tip from a citizen regarding drug activity in a neighborhood. The
SRO passed the tip on to patrol officers who were able to make an arrest based on the
tip. The SRO attended the first school dance of the year. He also received a tip
regarding a fight between two 8th graders and managed to intervene and prevent it
before it could take place. The school nurse responded to several injury incidents in the
school and the SRO assisted the nurse with first aid. The Mounds View PD donated
several unclaimed BMX bikes to the school which will be used by a class to repair and
restore them.
In September, the SRO attended a presentation titled “Strategies for the Recorded
Interview” which was instructed by a retired St Paul Homicide Investigator. At that
presentation, the SRO learned ways to enhance his interviewing methods.
During the month of September 2012, the SRO made 2 case reports: 1 assault report
and 1 theft report. From those cases, 1 juvenile was referred to the Northwest Youth
and Family Services Diversion Program.

K-9 (Canine) Unit
Officer Nick Erickson and Niko have been working with our patrol division and have
assisted with many different calls during the past few months. Between July 01st, 2012
and September 30th, 2012, the K-9 team has participated in 21 deployments. These
deployments consisted of building searches, crowd control for a large fight, tracking
burglary suspects, alarms, warrant arrests, public demonstrations at the Festival in the
Park, and National Night Out.
The K-9 team conducts daily trainings that include other Mounds View Officers so all
are accustomed to working with a K-9 team. If you would like more information about
the K-9 unit or would like to make a donation to help cover the cost of training and care,
please contact the police department at 763-717-4070.

Toward Zero Deaths (TZD)
During the third quarter, efforts by officers of The Mounds View Police Department
produced the following results during the noted scheduled events:
1. The seven days of speed occurred during the weekends in July resulting in 68
speeding citations.
2. A DWI saturation over the Labor Day period produced 6 DWI arrests.
3. Eight different high visibility events throughout areas in Ramsey County resulted
in 9 DWI arrests of motorists.
September 30, 2012 officially ended the fiscal grant year for the 2011-12 traffic safety
initiative grant period. The final statistics for the 2011-12 grant period in Ramsey County
by all participating agencies are as follows:
• Total hours worked: 8293
• Total Traffic Stops: 15,789
• Citations Issued: 10,916
• DWI arrests: 533
The new 2012-13 grant period awards $41,546.00 to the Mounds View Police
Department, which is a 5% increase over this past year. Due to the increased funds, 5
additional DWI saturations will be scheduled throughout the county and 3 additional
speed enforcement periods in November, March and June. These continued strong
efforts by officers are making the roads safer for every motorist!

Crime Prevention/DARE
In addition to the regular duties of monitoring predatory offenders, tracking false alarm
reports, attending property manager’s coalition meetings and assisting with school
safety at our area schools, Officer Keckeisen was involved in other specialized
activities:
• Organizing and coordinating our National Night Out party registrations, with a
record number of 35 parties.
• Coordinated a round of tobacco compliance checks, resulting in 4 businesses
failing the checks with the employees being cited for selling tobacco to a minor.
• Offering situational awareness training to fire corps members of the SBM Fire
Department.
• Conducting defensive tactics training to officers in the police department
• Continuing to serve as our department representative on the Ramsey County
Sheriff’s Dept SWAT Team.
News from the Department
The department remained busy this summer with the annual National Night Out event
held on August 7, 2012. An all time high number of 35 parties were registered
throughout the city. Officers made efforts to visit each party. K-9 Officer Erickson and
Niko were in high demand and made stops at several parties during the evening.
Once again this event proved to be a huge success and strengthened relationships with
members of the community and the police department!

Department News Continued
On August 18, 2012, the annual Festival in the Park celebration took place. The police
department provided a high visibility presence ranging from the parade, foot patrols in
the park, traffic control and the popular K-9 demonstration captured in some photos
below.

On September 22, 2012, officers assisted with traffic safety and control efforts for the
5K run near the Mermaid, sponsored by the Irondale Youth Hockey Association.
The police department was awarded an auto theft prevention grant from the Minnesota
State Department of Commerce. The funds will soon be used to acquire an automated
license plate recognition/reader (ALPR) system. The goal of this program is to aid in the
reduction of auto thefts by improving the response to these crimes and increasing the
prosecution of the offenders. Once installed on a squad car, a series of cameras are
able to capture license plates and process the results at a rate of up to 1800 plates per
minute. The collected data is compared to a database of stolen and wanted vehicles.
This technology provides a high speed and efficient process to locate stolen vehicles
and wanted persons without having the officer manually enter in the license plate
information. Fewer distractions for the officer will result in an increase in safety while
driving. The department will receive one unit as a result of our grant application and a
second unit as a result of collaboration with the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Department on
a grant their agency submitted.
