City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Nick DeBar, Public Works Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7780, Authorizing TKDA to Perform Design Services
and Prepare Contract Documents for the Lambert Park Building
Demolition and Construction
Background:
The current building at Lambert Park was originally built in the late 1970’s or early 1980’s as a
storage garage for various park and public works supplies and equipment. In 1987, the garage
was converted into a warming house. The building has outlived its useful life and is now
dilapidated and deteriorating (squirrels chewed through the rotten soffit material last year and
made a nest inside). In addition, the unit heater used during winter months should not be used
and would most likely be “red-tagged” if inspected by a licensed HVAC contractor. The City
purchased the heater used in 1987 when it was installed as part of the garage conversion.
The replacement of this building has been planned for some time. In addition to being included
on the Capital Improvement Program over the past few years, the Parks and Recreation and
Forestry Commission (Commission) has been discussing this project at most of their monthly
meetings since October 2009. The Commission met with the Council at a joint meeting during
the November 2010 work session at which time the Council gave direction to continue moving
forward with the replacement. Costs are proposed to be funded entirely from the Park
Dedication Fund.
Discussion:
The Commission made a recommendation (6-0) on April 28, 2011 to hire an architectural
consultant to perform professional design services and prepare plans and specifications for use
in obtaining bids and constructing the new building. The proposed building design will mimic the
basic design of the last park building constructed at Groveland Park in 2005, which mimicked
the basic design of the Hillview Park building constructed in 2001. Keeping the overall design
and style similar between these buildings will not only keep design costs down, but will help with
maintenance and repair activities and provide a cohesive feel to the various parks containing
these buildings.
TKDA, an engineering/architectural firm located in St. Paul, designed and prepared plans and
specifications for both buildings at Groveland and Hillview Parks. TKDA has submitted an
hourly rate fee proposal not to exceed $24,200 to perform the professional design services
(architectural and mechanical, electrical, and structural engineering) and plan/specification
preparation. City staff will perform the site/civil design and prepare plans/specifications in-
house for use in bidding and construction. The site/civil portion of the project requires the most
attention since each building location site is different. This will save approximately $7,500 to
$10,000 in consulting fees alone for the design phase of the project. A topographic survey of
the park was performed last year and will be used for site/civil design work.
There are several tweaks to the Groveland plans that are being considered for Lambert Park
including: enlarge covered concrete patio/picnic area and face toward park; extend dormer to
create covered concrete entrance on street side; enlarge windows and install impact resistive
glazing; install steel roof; and modifying several interior finishes. These changes are being
Res. 7770 Authorizing TKDA to Perform Design Services & Prepare Plans for Lambert Park Building
Page 2
considered to enhance the appeal for renting. However, none of these possible tweaks will
change the “bricks and mortar” or interior layout of the Groveland plans. If these changes did,
then the consultant fee would be more due to the increased design effort and redoing of
calculations.
The following is a general scope of services that TKDA will provide:
• Meet with the City to review the Project scope and receive input for minor revisions envisioned
to the Groveland Park shelter plans that will be incorporated into the proposed Lambert Park
shelter.
• Prepare proposed building plan layout.
• Meet with the City to review layouts.
• Prepare final plan layouts incorporating review comments.
• Prepare construction drawings and specifications manual (Contract Documents).
• Send application to Minnesota Department of Labor for Plumbing Review.
• Provide the City with one electronic copy and three hard copy sets of the Contract Documents
for use in obtaining bids for the construction.
Construction is estimated to be upwards of $300,000 and a detailed construction estimate will
be prepared by TKDA as part of their services. A public bid is required since the cost will
exceed $100,000. Bidding is anticipated to occur in June with construction expected to start
sometime in July. A three-month construction schedule is expected, but weather and many
other factors can influence this. The main deadline is to have the building complete by the
beginning of December to use with ice-skating and hockey activities.
The 2011 Budget includes $260,000 for the Lambert Park building construction. There was also
$30,000 budgeted for 2010 for design of the building that was not used. All monies for the
project is proposed to be funded by the Park Dedication Fund (251-4470-7050).
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council consider adopting the attached resolution. Doing so will
authorize moving ahead with the Lambert Park building demolition and construction for 2011.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: James Ericson, City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7778 Approving a Lease Extension with Creative
Kids Academy Operating at the Mounds View Community
Center
Introduction:
It was reported to the Council at the April work session that the lease for Creative Kids
Academy operating at the Mounds View Community Center would be expiring at the
end of July and that a new lease agreement would need to be negotiated. The owner
of the childcare facility expressed concern over the City’s desire to pass on to the owner
the property tax burden associated with the facility along with the cost of the product
associated with the dishwasher. The Council suggested offering a two-year lease
extension without requiring the owner to pay for the taxes or use of the dishwasher.
The owner agreed to this proposal.
Discussion:
As a result of the direction from the City Council and the consent of the business owner,
staff asked Kennedy & Graven to prepare a lease extension agreement document
which has been sent to the business owner for his review and signature. (The
agreement is attached for the Council’s reference.) There are no changes to the lease
agreement with the exception of the expiration date. Thus, all subsequent lease rate
increases (scheduled at the first of the year) would continue as they do now. Approving
the attached Resolution 7778 will lock the owner into two additional years at the
Community Center providing an ongoing revenue stream to the City.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the attached Resolution 7778, a resolution authorizing
an extension of the lease between the City and Creative Kids Academy, a business
providing childcare services at the Mounds View Community Center.
Respectfully submitted,

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: James Ericson, City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Approval of Emergency Interim Ordinance 859, an
Ordinance Establishing a Temporary Licensing and Planning
Moratorium on Tobacco Products Shops
Introduction:
The City’s regulations pertaining to the licensing of tobacco shops and tobacco sales can
be found in Chapter 512 of the City Code. The Chapter was last amended in 2010 to
strengthen the language pertaining to license revocations at the request of the Ramsey
Tobacco Coalition. (Previously, the entire Chapter was rewritten in 2002.) The Ramsey
Tobacco Coalition and the League of MN Cities have prepared a new model tobacco use
and licensing ordinance which the City intends to review for potential adoption, either in
part or in whole. In addition, the zoning requirements pertaining to Tobacco Products
Shops can be found in Title 1100, which will also necessitate review.
Discussion:
In addition to recent changes to state law that may necessitate amending the City Code, as
an off-shoot to the provision in Minnesota Statutes that allows for the “sampling” of tobacco
products in a tobacco shop, there has been a proliferation of businesses called “Hookah
Lounges” where people go to partake in a communal inhalation of filtered tobacco smoke.
Some cities have adopted licensing and zoning ordinances to be more restrictive than the
MN Statutes by prohibiting on-site sampling. Because of the health concerns related to
this type of smoking, licensing and zoning issues, the City Council believes a moratorium
on new tobacco products stores in the City for a 12-month period of time is necessary to
allow sufficient opportunity to review the model ordinance and other communities’
ordinances to determine what amendments may be necessary to the City Code.
Recommendation:
Staff is recommending Council approval of the attached Emergency Interim Ordinance 859
establishing a temporary moratorium on new tobacco products licenses and zoning
approval for a period not to exceed 12 months to give the City sufficient time to review the
current laws, model ordinance language, zoning issues and licensing matters. This
ordinance requires one reading by roll call vote and is effective immediately.

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED:
THE CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW ORDAINS:
SECTION 1. The City of Mounds View Municipal Code Appendix D is hereby amended to
include reference to the following Emergency Interim Ordinance No. 859.
Subdivision 1. Prohibition. To protect the planning process under the
authority of Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.355, subdivision 4, and to protect the
public health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the City of Mounds View, the City
Council of the City of Mounds View hereby adopts an Interim Ordinance which
states that during the effective period of the Ordinance, applications for a tobacco
license or for a building permit or zoning approval for a tobacco products shop will
not be processed or approved by the City and no application for such approvals
shall be received by the City. This Ordinance prohibits the further consideration and
approval by the City of any pending license or zoning application for a tobacco
products shop. For purposes of this Ordinance, “tobacco products shop” is defined
as a retail establishment with an entrance door opening directly to the outside that
derives more than 90 percent of its gross revenue from the sale of loose tobacco,
plants, or herbs and cigars, cigarettes, pipes and other smoking devices for burning
tobacco and related smoking accessories and which the sale of other products is
merely incidental. A “tobacco products shop” does not include a tobacco
department or section of any individual business establishment within any type of
liquor, food or restaurant license.
Subd. 2. Purpose. The purpose of this Ordinance is to temporarily protect the
planning process and the public health, safety and welfare and to allow the City to
conduct studies for the purpose of consideration of possible amendments to the
City’s licensing provisions and official controls to address issues concerning tobacco
products shops and tobacco products sampling.
Subd. 3. Enforcement. The City may enforce this Ordinance by injunction or
any other appropriate civil remedy in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Subd. 4. Separability. Every subdivision, provision or part of this Ordinance is
declared separable from every section, provision or part of this Ordinance. If any
subdivision, provision or part of this Ordinance is adjudged to be invalid by a court
of competent jurisdiction, such judgment shall not invalidate any other section,
provision or part of this Ordinance.
Subd. 5. Duration. This Interim Ordinance shall be in effect until the date of
adoption of any new licensing provisions and official controls pertaining to tobacco
products shops or until May 8, 2012, whichever occurs first.

On May 9, 2011, the City Council adopted Emergency Interim Ordinance 859
that establishes a licensing and planning moratorium on tobacco products
shops in the City of Mounds View for a period of time not to exceed one year.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Heidi Steinmetz, Economic Development Specialist
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7777 Approving Installation of Signage at the
Mounds View Community Center
Background
On April 25, 2011, City Administrator Jim Ericson discussed with the City Council the
possibility of adding signage to the Mounds View Community Center. Mr. Ericson reported
that City staff had received three quotes, which are attached to this report, from sign
vendors to create and install lettering just under the uppermost roofline of the southern face
of the Mounds View Community Center. An image of what the lettering would look like is
shown below.
Discussion
As shown on the images on the next page, the existing monument sign located at the
entrance of the Community Center parking lot is difficult to see from Edgewood Drive. This
is because the sign was installed before the realignment of Edgewood Drive.
May 9, 2011 City Council Meeting
Item 7C
Resolution 7777
City staff received two quotes in 2009 to remove and reconstruct a new monument sign for
the Community Center and the quotes were too substantial ($7,200 and $10,100 plus
permit fees). That is why staff determined that the best “bang for our buck” would be to
install very large lettering directly onto the Community Center building because it would be
more visible than a monument sign. Plus, the cost of lettering for the building is a small
fraction ($1,860 + permit fees) of the cost to relocate the monument sign.
Funding
Funding for the lettering would come from the undesignated Bethlehem Baptist Church
donation received by the Mounds View Economic Development Authority (EDA) on January
28, 2011 in the amount of $2,871.50. Staff is recommending the lowest quote received,
which is $1,860 + permit fees to install 18-inch painted plastic lettering. The plastic letters
have a lifetime guarantee.
Lighting
The proposed lettering will not be visible at night. If the City Council wishes, lighting for the
sign may be installed at a later date. One option would be for City staff to obtain quotes for
lighting to be paid for from the EDA’s remaining Bethlehem Baptist donation funds from
January 2011. The remaining funds would be just under $1,000 after the purchase and
installation of the lettering.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council consider approving the attached City Council Resolution
7777 Authorizing the Purchase and Installation of Signage for the Mounds View Community
Center. The funds donated by Bethlehem Baptist Church on January 28, 2011 would be
used to make this purchase from JDI Signs and Graphics in the amount of $1,860 plus
permit fees.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7779, Authorizing the Purchase of Gift Certificates
for the June 8, 2011, Employee Appreciation Day
Introduction:
As stated in Resolution 5617, the City will provide eligible employees gift certificates for a
Five-Year Employment Milestone. In the past, the City has also provided a luncheon to
appreciate the hard work and dedication of city employees. These gift certificates have been
awarded to the eligible employees during the annual employee appreciation luncheon.
Discussion:
One of the clauses in Resolution 5617 is that the City would provide to employees “gift
certificates in the amount of $5 per year of service at five-year increments.” Currently there
are 11 city employees that fall under these criteria. Both the Employee Lunch and Gift
Certificates are currently budgeted for 2011 (Budget # 100-4100-1600). The employees
below qualify under the criteria set in Resolution 5617:
Employee Name Department Years of
Service as of
2011
Gift Certificate
Amount
Juell, Tracy Public Works 20 years $100
Czarnecki, Keith MVPD 15 years $75
Ericson, James Administration 15 years $75
Menard, Steven MVPD 15 years $75
Meyer, Darrell MVPD 15 years $75
Keckeisen, Kasey MVPD 10 years $50
Leitch, Kirk MVPD 10 years $50

Knitter, Benjamin MVPD 5 years $25
Springer, Mary Administration 5 years $25
Item 08A
City Council – Consent Agenda
May 9, 2011
Page 2
The City has $800 in the budget for gift certificates, and an additional $800 for the employee
luncheon. The Employee Appreciation Day is scheduled for Wednesday, June 8, 2011. Due
to the colder than normal weather conditions, the Employee Appreciation Luncheon will be
held at the Mounds View Banquet Center from 1130am to 130pm instead of City Hall Park.
Recommendation:
At the May 2, 2011, Work Session it was the consensus of the City Council to proceed with
the Employee Appreciation Luncheon and Employee Milestone Gift Certificates. Staff
recommends approval of Resolution 7779, Authorizing the Purchase of Employee Gift
Certificates for the June 8, 2011, Employee Appreciation Day.

Crime Prevention/Dare
Winter was another busy quarter for the Crime Prevention Unit. Officer Keckeisen
continued to teach the DARE program to over 100 5th graders at Pinewood Elementary
School. This program remains a popular and well received curriculum.
All regular duties continue to be performed by the crime prevention officer. These include
monthly alarm report monitoring, property manager coalition meeting attendance, weekly
distribution of the crime summary reports with prevention tips and school crossing presence
at all three area schools, both in the morning and afternoon hours. This particular detail,
with assistance from other available patrol officers, is highly appreciated by school staff and
families.
Quarterly Predatory Offender checks continued this quarter. Officer Keckeisen contacted
several offenders to confirm that their registration information is current and correct, and to
provide recent photos to the B.C.A. All predatory offenders in Mounds View are currently in
compliance with their registration.
Officer Keckeisen updated the multi-media presentation on the proactive programs provided
by the Mounds View Police Department that was scheduled to be presented at the
upcoming Mounds View Town Hall Meeting.
To help reduce criminal activity, and address specific concerns of citizens, extra patrol and
visual police presence was focused on several specific areas throughout Mounds View.

following classifications:
• Warrant arrest
• Order for Protection Violation

• Disorderly Conduct
• Court Order Violation
• Suspicious Person
• Possession of drug paraphernalia and sale of simulated controlled substance

A total of 6 juveniles were petitioned to court during this quarter, while only 2 were
referred to court during this same period in 2010. Speculation on this rise in incidents
has focused on a struggling economy as potentially raising stress levels in family homes
resulting in an increase in activity.
To provide a more detailed description of what the school resource officer does, the
following information offers this insight:
The SRO assisted with students researching the harmful effects of inhalant abuse,
attended administration meetings with the deans, transported suspended students home
or to Oak Grove High School, investigated theft of property, used the school security
cameras to assist the school with investigating incidents, deescalated students in crisis,
counseled students about stealing school property, intervened when students were
bullying or harassing each other, assisted parents with custody disputes, provided
security and supervision at the school sponsored dances, counseled students about
cyber bullying, participated in a focus group for boys dealing with anger, assisted school
officials with locker searches, assisted social services with investigating abuse and
neglect of students, investigated tips about students using drugs in the community,
fielded questions from citizens about restraining orders, responded to misbehavior on the
buses, assisted the school with updating their crisis and evacuation procedures,
improved visitor check-in security, gave a presentation to a class about becoming a
police officer, assisted investigators with cases involving students, counseled students
about the use of airsoft guns, and counseled students about tobacco.
SRO Knitter has also completed on-line emergency management courses related to
school security and safety matters.

On March 11th, the police department assisted investigators from the Blaine Police
Department and the FBI in the execution of a search warrant in the 2300 Block of
Groberg St. This led to the arrest of a 31 year old male for a bank robbery in Blaine and
an armed robbery of the Mounds View SuperAmerica Station. This investigation had a
successful outcome due to the excellent collaborative work by members of all three
agencies!
In other departmental news, Sgt Ben Zender was recently profiled in a Metropolitan State
University newsletter. The publication highlighted Sgt Zender’s recent graduation with a
Bachelor’s Degree as well as receiving the outstanding student award in the School of
Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice. Sgt Zender has achieved a black belt in the
martial arts, instructed firearms safety classes for youth and participated in various fund
raising efforts. Sgt Zender is also a devoted family man, staying busy raising three young
children.
In February, members of the police department participated in the Cystic Fibrosis
