To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7792, Authorizing an On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor
License Refund for MoundsVista, Inc., (formally doing business
as The Mermaid)
Background:
At the February 14, 2011, City Council Meeting, MoundsVista, Inc., transferred all business
licenses to the Mermaid Acquisition Group, Inc., to include the On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor
License. Effective February 15, 2011, The Mermaid Acquisition Group Inc., became owner
and manager of The Mermaid. Recently, the City received a request from Dan Hall (owner of
MoundsVista, Inc. and former owner of The Mermaid), for a prorate share refund of
MoundsVista Inc.’s annual On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License.
Discussion:
According to the City’s liquor code under §502.06, subd 4:
No refund of any fee shall be permitted except as authorized under Minnesota
Statutes 340A.408.
Under Minnesota Statutes §340A.408, subd. 5:
Refunds. A prorate share of an annual license fee for a retail license to sell
intoxicating or 3.2 percent malt liquor, either on-sale or off-sale may be refunded to the
licensee or to the licensee’s estate if:
(1) the business ceases to operate because of destruction or damage;
(2) the licensee dies;
(3) the business ceases to be lawful for a reason other than a license revocation;
or
(4) the licensee ceases to carry on the licensed business under the license.
In order for Mr. Hall to receive a refund, the City Council will need to approve the refund by
Resolution. The City is not obligated to refund the unused portion of the liquor license.
However, if the City Council wishes to refund the unused portion, then this refund may set
precedence for future requests for liquor license and other business license refunds.
Item 07I
May 23, 2011 City Council Meeting
Page 2
Recommendation:
Staff would like direction on how to proceed with this matter. . The City is not obligated to
refund the unused portion of the liquor license. If the City Council wishes to refund the
unused portion of MoundsVista’s liquor license, then the refund amount will be $3,749.96.
This amount covers the unused portion of the liquor license from February 15, 2011, to June
30, 2011.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator and
Nick DeBar, Public Works Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7793, Approving the Hire of Adam Fogerty as
Engineering/GIS Intern in the Public Works Department
Background:
The Engineering/GIS Intern is a temporary, part-time position geared toward current or recent
college students in a related field. This employment arrangement allows Public Works to obtain
skilled help at a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time, regular employee. Current Public
Works Staff have extensive experience and skill in working with AutoCAD and ArcGIS, the
software programs already owned by the City, which will, in turn, allow a current or recent
college student to obtain “real world”, on-the-job experience resulting in a “win-win” situation.
The position is fully funded by the Water and Sanitary Sewer Enterprise Funds and has no
impact on the General Fund. Each internship cycle is typically one to three years, but and
there is no guarantee made or implied for this duration and the position could be eliminated by
the City Council at any time.
Discussion:
The rehiring of the vacant intern position was discussed at the April 11, 2011 City Council
meeting, in which the Council approved advertising for the rehiring process. The advertisement
was posted on Mounds View’s website, the League of Minnesota Cities website, and was also
submitted to the GIS Consortium for distribution. The salary was advertised at $11.75 per hour
without benefits; with an increase to $12.50 per hour after 12 months of continuous
employment and a satisfactory performance evaluation upon Council approval (Bonestroo’s
current standard GIS hourly rate is $83 to $104 plus an additional $22 per hour for GIS
workstation usage).
The City received 22 applications by the April 27, 2011 deadline and four candidates
interviewed on May 11, 2011. The interview panel consisted of Nick DeBar and Jim Hess
(Engineering/IS Technician). It was the consensus of the panel to recommend Adam Fogerty
to the position of Engineering/GIS Intern. Mr. Fogerty is currently in his third year pursuing a
four-year degree in Geography at South Dakota State University in Brookings, South Dakota,
where he has completed GIS coursework and is semi-skilled with ArcGIS. Reference checks
are complete and satisfactory and background checks are underway.
Mr. Fogerty will be instrumental in assisting the engineering staff in Public Works to build the
City’s GIS base maps and drafting of in-house engineering drawings and exhibits. Staff
believes that a qualified intern will easily offset consultant costs associated with the GIS
data/mapping and engineering drafting services. The last intern worked 499.5 hours in 2010
for a total personnel cost of $6,318.13, compared to a comparable time cost of $52,447.50 to
$62,937 to have Bonestroo perform the work. Mr. Fogerty may also perform other common
daily tasks involving file archiving, field surveys/investigations, construction inspection,
assisting citizens with questions, and other various and miscellaneous duties of the
Department.
Resolution 7793 Approving the Hire of Adam Fogerty as Engineering/GIS Intern
Page 2
Work hours for Mr. Fogerty would be flexible, like the previous intern, with up to full-time hours
during summer and holiday/school breaks and part-time employment (up to 15 hours per week)
the remainder of the year. Since he attends college out of state, it is unlikely that Mr. Fogerty
will be working too often outside of summer and school breaks; but the opportunity would be
available if he so chooses. The intern’s salary is funded equally by the Water and Sanitary
Sewer Enterprise Funds (700-4823 and 730-4823) as indicated in the adopted 2011 budget.
No benefits and no employment agreement are associated with this position, so if the Council
does not approve future budget monies for the position, the intern position would be terminated.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council consider adopting Resolution 7793 that will approve the
hire of Adam Fogerty as Engineering/GIS Intern in the Public Works Department. If approved,
Mr. Fogerty’s first day is tentatively planned to be May 26, 2011.
Respectfully submitted,
Desaree Crane

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Heidi Heller, Planning Associate
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7794, Approving a Variance Extension for the
“Longview Estates” Development;
Introduction:
On August 9, 2010, the City Council passed Resolution 7658 that approved a variance to
allow for reduced lot widths in a wetland district. The Planning Commission originally
denied the variance, but the City Council approved the applicant’s appeal. Per city code,
an applicant has one year after the variance or appeal is granted to complete the work or
the approval is void unless an extension has been granted.
Chapter 1125.02: Variances and App eals
Subd. 5. Lapse of Variance or Appeal: Whenever, within one year after granting a
variance or appeal, the work as permitted by the variance or appeal shall not have been
completed, then such variance or appeal shall become null and void unless a petition for
extension of time in which to complete the work has been granted by the Board of
Adjustment and Appeals, such extension shall be requested, in writing, and filed with the
City Administrator at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the original variance or
appeal. There shall be no charge for the filing of such petition. The request for extension
shall state facts, showing a good faith attempt to complete the work permitted in the
variance or appeal.
Discussion:
Eichi, Inc., represented by Paul Harstad, has submitted a letter requesting a one-year
extension of the variance, as allowed per City Code. The housing market continues to be
very slow for home builders, and Mr. Harstad would like to wait another year to complete
the major subdivision of the Longview Estates property.
Recommendations:
Staff requests that the City Council pass Resolution 7794, approving a one-year extension
for the variance that approves reduced lot widths in a wetland district on the Longview
Estates property.
Respectfully submitted,
Heidi Heller
Planning Associate

Council Meeting. Notice of the public hearing was published in the Sun Focus.
The components of the Five Year Financial Plan are attached for Council consideration.
There are several components to the Five Year Financial Plan. These are the General
Fund Multi-year Operating Budget, the Vehicle & Equipment Replacement Plan, the
Capital Improvement Program, the Impact on Capital Projects Funds’ Cash Balance, and
Utility Rate Studies. Staff also included the financing plan for the Street and Utility
Improvement Program with acceleration of the last three projects.
This five year plan should be considered a work-in-progress and a guide for Council and
Staff to make longer range decisions. As new information becomes available and
conditions change we can update the components to determine the longer range affect.
General Fund Multi-year Operating Budget:
The multi-year operating budget for the General Fund excludes any consideration of
Local Government Aid for 2012 and beyond. The plan reflects a 2.50% increase in
expenditures for 2012 and a 3% increase in expenditures for the remaining years. A 4%
levy increase is reflected for all years after 2012. The General Fund runs deficits for the
five years under consideration. This indicates that there will be some difficult choices
ahead. When possible staff used known amounts instead of projections. The levy
amount for 2012 reflects no increase but may be adjusted as we develop the 2012
budget and better information becomes available. This version of the budget assumes
that there will be no additions to personnel or other major changes in operating
expenditures and does reflect the reduction of personnel in the Community Development
department.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP):
The Capital Improvement Program has been updated to reflect changes in the project
list and is presented for your consideration. There are a number of projects that were
anticipated to be funded with unobligated tax increment, but will have to have another
funding source and are reflected as unfunded in the CIP.
Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Plan
The schedule has been updated to reflect retirements and new acquisitions. The
current amounts transferred to the Vehicle and Equipment Fund from the
participating funds is sufficient to maintain replacement levels except for the
General Fund. The General Fund amount was reduced to balance the budget in
2010 and 2011 but is systematically increased starting in 2013.
Impact on Capital Projects Funds’ Cash Balances:
This presents the sources and uses and impacts to cash for the Capital Improvement
Program on the four capital projects funds for the five year period of this report, 2012
thru 2016.
Utility Rate Studies
Utility rate studies are included and there are mixed results. The storm water and street
light rates can be maintained at the current level. Future rate increases will depend on
the cost of electricity, additional lights, and future storm water projects that have been
greatly reduced as a result of the use of infiltration basins. The water and sewer rates
should be considered for an increase in 2012. The water rate is proposed to increase
by a dime in 2012, which will add about $8 a year to the average bill based on 20,000
gallons per quarter. The sewer rate is proposed to be increased by 4% in 2012, which
will add $10 a year to the average residential bill. Future increases will need to be
considered until both funds stabilize. The need for an increase is generated by
significant capital expenses during 2011 for the water fund (water tower maintenance
and facility maintenance) and significant increases in disposal charges by Metropolitan
Council Environmental Services.
Five Year Financial Plan Adoption:
The Five Year Plan is a blueprint for future years and is only one possible scenario. It is
intended to be changed as priorities change and more current information becomes
available. Staff welcomes Council comments and direction on any desired changes.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Nick DeBar, Public Works Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7796, Approving a Construction Contract with Muska
Electric Company for the 2011 Electrical Modifications for Well
No. 2 Motor Conversion Project
Background:
Municipal Well No. 2 was constructed in August 1962 and is located within the Public Works
Facility at 2466 Bronson Drive. Well No. 2 was powered by a natural gas engine (all other
wells have electric motors) and is in the process of begin converted to electric motor power.
This conversion was necessary due to the erratic behavior of the 35+ year old used gas
engine that was causing the water distribution system to work under a vulnerable state of
spiked pressure.
A new 200-HP electric motor was installed as part of the well rehabilitation last year. The
remaining work now left to do is associated with electrical modifications to the well house for
accommodating the new motor and associated control system. Upon completion, Well No. 2
will be used interchangeably with Well No. 1, each delivering approximately 10% of the City’s’
water supply. Well No. 2 is currently off-line pending completion of the electrical
modifications.
Discussion:
Last July, the City Council approved the hiring of Bolton & Menk, Inc., an engineering
consulting firm, for engineering analysis and plan and specification preparation for the
electrical modifications (Res. 7644). The work includes the following:
1. Electrical & mechanical demolition, disconnection, and removals;
2. Structural demolition, removal, & disposal; repair concrete floor slab & patch walls;
3. Furnish & install new magnetic flow meter & associated piping modifications;
4. Construct new main electrical service & coordinate with Xcel Energy;
5. Furnish & install switchgear, panel boards, circuit breakers, switches, raceways,
wiring, & all associated work;
6. Furnish & install variable frequency drive & associated work; start-up & training;
7. Furnish & install new SCADA panel & antenna; coordinate with vendor.
Request for quotes were sent to five qualified electrical contractors and three quote proposals
were received on May 19, 2011. The quotes ranged from $55,400 to $72,450 with the low
quote submitted by Muska Electric Company of Roseville, Minnesota. All quotes were below
the engineer’s estimate of $75,000.
Bolton & Menk has submitted an hourly fee estimate not to exceed $5,000 to perform
engineering services associated with the construction phase. Services include reviewing shop
drawings, submittals and O&M manuals; part-time inspection at various stages of the project;
provide technical support; perform final inspection and witness start-up; and other
miscellaneous and related work.
Resolution 7796 Approving Const. Contract for Electrical Modifications for Well No. 2 Motor Conversion
Page 2
When the City hired Bolton & Menk in July 2010, their fee estimate for design was $20,000.
However, the scope of services had expanded to assist the City with work not originally
planned with that fee relating to the furnishing and installation of the new electric motor. They
are requesting an additional $3,500 for the scope creep for a revised approved fee of $23,500.
Additional costs were associated with the following:
1. Additional evaluation for placement of well pump (pumping depth) to meet future
groundwater conditions;
2. Assistance with selection of pump bowl assembly;
3. Hydraulic pumping and power analysis for selection of new electric motor;
4. Analysis to determine load requirements on 150-kW emergency generator from new
electrical demand from Well No. 2; and
5. Coordination for two projects instead of one.
The City will also be responsible for covering the cost for Xcel Energy to install a new main to
the well house. While the actual cost will not be known until Xcel is ready to install the
service, it is estimated to be under $10,000. Additional costs will be associated with the
SCADA system upgrade to remotely monitor and control the well operation and are budgeted
separately.
The 2011 budget includes $75,000 for construction of this project under the Water Enterprise
Fund (700-4823-7050). Tallying up the project costs discussed above, the total costs
expected to be paid in 2011 is approximately $73,900 ($55,400+$5,000+$3,500+$10,000).
However, Xcel Energy has a rebate program for variable speed drives that would provide a
$8,000 check to the City.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council consider adopting Resolution 7796 approving a
construction contract with Muska Electric Company for $55,400, including a contingency of
5% or $2,800 for unknowns that may be encountered. The resolution would also authorize
Bolton & Menk to perform engineering services associated with the construction phase of the
project for a maximum of $5,000, as well as increasing their design fee by $3,500. Lastly, the
cost for Xcel Energy to bring in a new electrical service would also be approved
(approximately $10,000). If approved, construction is expected to begin by mid-June 2011.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Nick DeBar, Public Works Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7797, Approving the Bidding Documents and
Authorizing Advertisement for Bids for the 2011 Partial Reroofing
of City Hall and Full Reroofing of Well House Nos. 5 and 6 Project
Background:
Public Works has been investigating reoccurring roof issues over the past year, including
having a comprehensive roof management program completed for all City-owned buildings.
This program recommends a partial reroofing of City Hall and a full reroofing of Well House
Nos. 5 and 6 for 2011 construction. In December 2010, the City Council authorized INSPEC,
Inc. to design and prepare bidding documents for reroofing of these facilities (Res. 7713).
Discussion:
INSPEC has designed and prepared preliminary plans and specifications for the 2011
reroofing project. A small portion of the Community Center roof (over the kitchen) was to be
included in the project. However, since the rest (and majority) of the Community Center is
scheduled for a reroofing in 2012, that portion is now planned to be done next year with the
rest of the Community Center. The following is a narrative of the project scope:
Existing System:
The existing roof system on City Hall areas A (1960 original building) and B (1975 addition)
were installed in 1998. Area A consists of a double tee concrete deck; Area B is a steel deck
system; and both areas have two layers of 2" insulation and a ballasted 45-mil EPDM
membrane. Wells #5 and #6 have 3" to 4" of polystyrene insulation and a ballasted 45-mil
EPDM membrane. The existing insulation R-value is approximately 23.
New Roof System:
The new roof system was evaluated to determine the best roof system/long term value for the
facility. The decision was made to design/install a built-up roof system. The existing roof
drains are the original drains at City Hall. They will be replaced with new drains at existing
locations. The height above the deck will accommodate the new tapered insulation sumps to
improve drainage. New overflow scuppers will be installed at existing locations. At Well
House Nos. 5 & 6, new primary scuppers will be installed with new tapered insulation sumps
to improve drainage.
Special Items:
Special items of concern include raising HVAC units, existing gas and electrical lines on roof
deck, and removing any obsolete items and replacing with new deck at existing openings.
Construction Estimate (INSPEC):
INSPEC’s estimated construction costs for the partial reroofing City Hall is $260,000 and
$23,000 for each well house for a total estimate of $306,000.
Funding:
Approving Bid Docs & Authorizing Ad for Bid for 2011 Reroofing of City Hall & Well House Nos. 5 & 6
Page 2
The proposed 2011 budget includes monies to address the roof replacements being
considered. The following is a breakdown of the funding locations:
• $175,000 for City Hall under 280-4180-7050, Special Projects;
• $65,000 for Well No. 5 & 6 under 700-4823-7050, Water Infra & Equip. Maintenance.
Total combined proposed funding amount: $240,000
The discrepancy between the INSPEC combined estimated cost of $306,000 and the
combined fund amount of $240,000 is due to the overly conservative estimate used by
INSPEC, namely for the City Hall roof replacement costs. City staff solicited two roofing
quotes during summer 2010 for City Hall that ranged from $117,000 to $120,000. However,
the real costs will be known upon bidding of the project.
Proposed Project Schedule (2011):
The project requires a public bid process since the total construction costs are expected to
exceed $100,000. The advertisement for bid will need to be posted 21-days in advance of the
bid opening. All qualified roofing contractors are invited to bid. The following is a proposed
schedule based upon a public bid process:
May 23 City Council approves Bid Docs./Authorizes Ad for Bid
June 2 Advertisement for Bid posted
June 15 Pre-Bid meeting with potential bidders
June 22 Bid Opening
June 27 City Council awards construction contract
July 5-18 Construction begins
Late Aug. Construction complete
INSPEC has submitted a fee for $900 to provide assistance during the bidding phase. The
scope of services will include answering bidder’s questions, attending the pre-bid meeting,
issuing any addendums, reviewing the bids received, and recommending a bidder to award
the project.
Recommendation:
City staff recommends that the City Council consider adopting the attached resolution, which
will approve the bidding documents and authorize advertisement for bids. If adopted, INSPEC
will finalize plans and specifications to be readied for distribution to potential bidders. A bid
opening date of June 22, 2011 at 10:00 am will be set. INSPEC will be authorized to perform
bidding services for an amount not to exceed $900. The Council will still need to award the
construction contract to the successful bidder before any construction can take place.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Desaree Crane, Assistant City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7781, Approving a Revision to the 2011 Fee
Schedule by Adding the Alcohol Consumption and Display
Permit Fee
Introduction:
A Consumption and Display Permit may be issued by the Minnesota Department of Public
Safety (with approval by the City Council by Resolution) to allow restaurants or 3.2 Malt
Liquor licensed establishments to permit the consumption and display of intoxicating liquor
on the premises. This permit does not authorize the sale of intoxicating liquor. This allows
restaurants and establishments that hold 3.2 Malt Liquor Licenses to allow customers to
bring in their own intoxicating liquor. In accordance with §502.03, subd. 5 of the City Code
relating to liquor:
Consumption and Display Permits: Consumption and display permits are
issued by the Commissioner and regulated by the provisions of Minnesota
Statutes Section 340A.414. Consumption and display permits issued by the
Commissioner must be approved by the City Council before they are effective.
Discussion:
Although the City Code allows this type of permit, the City has not established a fee in the
2011 Fee Schedule. In accordance with Minnesota Statute §340A.414, subd. 6:
Permit Fees. The annual fee for issuance of a permit under this section is $250.
The governing body of a city of county where is establishment is located may
impose an additional fee of not more than $300.
At the May Work Session it was the consensus of the City Council to impose the maximum
fee of $550, as established by Minnesota Statute. $250 would go directly to the Minnesota
Department of Public Safety (Alcohol Division), and $300 would go directly to the City.
Also at the May Work Session, the City Council was concerned about enforcement issues
with this type of license. According to the Police Chief, establishments that hold this type of
permit are subject to the same penalties as other liquor sales establishments as stated in
Minnesota State Statute §340A,503., subd. 1 (attached). Any business with this permit has
Item 08A
May 23, 2011, City Council Meeting
Page 2
an obligation to ensure no one under 21 is consuming alcohol. The penalty to permit anyone
under 21 to consume alcohol is a misdemeanor.
Recommendation
Staff is recommending adding the Alcohol Consumption and Display Permit License fee to
the 2011 Fee Schedule in the amount of $550.

______________________________________________________________________________
SUBJECT: EXPOSURE CONTROL PLAN- BLOODBORNE
PATHOGENS
______________________________________________________________________
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this procedure is to provide information to all Full
employees on how to minimize the risk of exposure to infectious
microorganisms including, but not limited to HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis
C to which, during the course of performing their duties, employees may
be exposed. It is a further purpose of this procedure to provide the
employees information on what steps are to be taken if an employee
believes they have had a significant exposure to such pathogens.
METHODS OF EXPOSURE OR CONTAMINATION:
Microorganisms (pathogens) identified in this procedure are typically
transmitted by contact with body fluids. Medical science, at this time, is
uncertain if other methods of transmission are possible, but this possibility
should not be ignored. Employees are urged to use caution when such
exposure is possible.
In addition to a possible risk of exposure while performing an Emergency
Medical Service (EMS) function, employees are urged to exercise caution
in all situations, which may provide an opportunity for body fluid contact
such as, arrest, i.e. hypodermic needle puncture, bites, etc.
Any cuts, open wounds, or sores that an employee has are potential sites
of infection and should be treated accordingly.
Typically, the spread of communicable disease requires:
A. A source of infection (microorganism);
B. A means of transmission; and
C. A susceptible host (reservoir).
Employees are urged to use safe practices in cases of indirect contact as
well (i.e. clothing items, potentially contaminated linens, potentially
contaminated inanimate objects, droplet contact, and/or airborne contact).
USE OF PROTECTIVE DEVICES:
To minimize the chances of infection, employees are directed to use
personal protective equipment which is provided:
• Disposable gloves
• Infection Control kits(including eyewear & mask protection)
• Hand washing & disinfectant supplies
• Pocket Masks for administering artificial breathing
• N95 masks (issued to police officers and public works employees)
These items are located in the squad room and/or in the squad car first aid
kits.
Face shields and eye protection are recommended when a reasonable
foreseeable potential for an exposure exists to these areas.
Red Biohazard bags are also provided for disposal of gloves and other
contaminated equipment.
SAFETY PROCEDURE GUIDELINES:
Hand washing has been found to be a significant measure for the control
of infection. Hands should be washed immediately after contact with
blood or other body fluids. Hands should also be washed immediately
after removing gloves or other protective gear.
BLOOD, BODY FLUIDS OR UNIVERSAL MOIST BODY SUBSTANCES
(UMBS) AND SECRETION PRECAUTIONS:
Blood, body fluids (UMBS), and secretions of all persons should be
considered to contain potentially infectious agents. The terms body fluids
(UMBS) and secretions include: blood, semen, vaginal secretions,
cerebrospinal, peritoneal and amniotic fluids and drainage from cuts,
sores and scrapes, feces, urine, vomit, respiratory and nasal secretions,
saliva and perspiration. In light of this:
A. Treat all blood, body fluids, and secretions as if they are in fact
contaminated. When in contact with blood or any potentially infectious
material, whether gloves are worn or not, hands should be washed
with soap and running water as soon as feasible. Antiseptic hand
cleansers are available for use as well.
B. Use protective gear when handling potentially contaminated materials.
C. Protect all cuts, sores or open wounds from contamination by contact
with potential sources of infection.
D. Develop the habit of keeping your hands away from your eyes, nose
and mouth in order to minimize the chances of infection.
E. Dispose of blood, body fluids, and secretions properly. Generally,
infectious microorganisms do not survive if out of the host and exposed
to an open environment.
F. Handle sharp items such as needles properly and use protective cases
when appropriate. Contaminated needles and other contaminated
sharps shall not be bent, recapped or removed. Contaminated
reusable sharps shall be placed in appropriate containers and shall be
puncture resistant, leak proof on sides and the bottom and labeled and
color coded appropriately. The sharps container should be able to be
closed after each use. Handle such items with extreme caution.
G. Be acutely aware of cuts or scrapes you may receive while engaged in
handling a situation, which may carry a potential risk of infection.
H. Uniform clothing contaminated with blood or other potentially infectious
material should be removed as soon as possible. It should be placed in
a red biohazard bag and cleaned separately from other clothing items.
Gloves should be worn when handling this type of infected clothing.
PROCEDURE FOR SIGNIFICANT EXPOSURE AND POST EXPOSURE:
If an employee experiences a significant exposure to an infectious
microorganism or experiences a situation or condition such that a
significant exposure is likely to have occurred, the employee is to proceed
as follows:
A. Report to the Shift Supervisor as soon as possible, completing the
required First Report of Injury forms
B. Complete the Exposure Incident Report form, which is available from
the Shift Supervisor.
C. Report to the same hospital as the source patient, with the completed
Exposure Incident form and advise the hospital staff of the exposure or
potential exposure. If the “source patient” is not transported, the
nearest hospital may be used.
D. Request that hospital personnel draw a sample of the employee’s blood
and a sample of the source patient’s blood to test for the presence of
HIV antibodies, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C. The source patient has the
right to refuse testing.
E. Results of the blood tests will be reported by the hospital facility to the
Chief of Police and the employee who reported the exposure.
F. Pre-Test and Post-Test counseling will be provided to employees who
experience a significant exposure upon request.
G. The City of Mounds View will bear all costs associated with blood tests
and pre-test and post-test counseling.
H. The Supervisor will file the First Report of Injury form and one copy of
the Exposure Incident form with the Personnel office as soon as
possible.
i. If the employee elects to go to their personal physician for the
determination of a significant exposure, the exposure incident form
must be presented to and signed by the employee’s personal physician
and returned to the City.
TRAINING
Training will be conducted annually covering bloodborne pathogen
exposure.
HEPATITIS B VACCINATION
The Hepatitis B vaccination series is available to all Mounds View Police
and Public Works Personnel. This vacation is optional and offered at no
cost to the employee. If the employee does not wish to receive this
vaccine, then the employee will be required to sign a waiver of vaccine
form to be placed on file with the Assistant City Administrator.

Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7783, Approving the Bloodborne Pathogen Policy
Background:
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Bloodborne Pathogen regulation protects
employees who work in occupations where they are at risk of exposure to blood or other potentially
infectious materials. All of the requirements of this regulation can be found in Title 29 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (29 CFR 1910.1030). The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen requirements state
what employers must do to protect workers who are occupationally exposed to blood or other
potentially infectious materials. This requires employers to develop written policies to explain how
they will implement the policy, provide training to employees and to protect the health and safety of
their workers. Currently, the Mounds View Police Department does have a policy dealing with
Bloodborne Pathogen. However, under OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen regulation, the City is required
to have a policy that covers all employees. The City Council and Staff reviewed the Bloodborne
Pathogen Policy at the May Work Session, and it was the consensus of the City Council to place this
report under Consent.
Discussion:
The OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Regulation requires employers to:
Establish an exposure control plan. This is a written plan to eliminate or minimize
occupational exposures. The City is required to prepare an exposure determination that
contains a list of classifications in which all employees have occupational exposure and a list
of job classifications in which some workers have occupational exposure, along with a list of
the tasks and procedures performed by those workers that result in their exposure.
Employers must update the plan annually. The City must update the plan annually to
reflect any changes in tasks, procedures and positions that affect occupational exposure, and
also technological changes that eliminate or reduce occupational exposure. The City is also
required to annually document in the plan that they have begun using commercially available
effective safer medical devises designed to eliminate or minimize occupational exposure.
Indentify and use engineering controls. These are devises that isolate to remove the
bloodborne pathogen hazard from the workplace. This includes sharp disposal containers,
and self-sheathing needles. The Safety Committee is conducting an audit to identify the
areas in the City where these disposal containers are required.
Identify and ensure work practice controls. These are practices that reduce the possibility
of exposure by changing the way a task is performed, such as practices for handling and
disposing of contaminated sharps, handling specimens, handling laundry, and cleaning
contaminated surfaces and items.
Item 08B
May 23, 2011 City Council Meeting
Page 2
Provide personal protective equipment (PPS), such as gloves, gowns, eye protection,
and masks. The City is required to clean, repair and replace this equipment as needed.
Maintenance, repair and replacement cannot be at the cost of the employee.
Make available hepatitis B vaccinations to all workers with occupational exposure. This
vaccination must be offered after the employee has received the required bloodborne
pathogens training at no cost to the employee. Currently all Mounds View Police Officers,
Sergeants, PSO, Police Chief and Deputy Chief have been offered this vaccine. However, it
has come to Staff’s attention that the Public Works Department is required to be offered this
vaccine as well under the OSHA regulation. If an employee refuses the vaccine, then the
employee would be required to sign a waiver of vaccination. This vaccine is normally covered
under the employee’s medical plan (i.e. PPO or HSA plan). If a covered employee does not
have a medical plan that covers this vaccine, then the City would be responsible for the cost of
this vaccine in accordance with OSHA Regulation 29 CFR 1910.1030.
Make available post-exposure evaluation and follow-up to any occupational exposed
worker who experiences an exposure incident. An exposure incident is a specific eye,
mouth, other mucous membrane, non-intact skin, or parenteral contract with blood or other
potentially infectious materials. This evaluation must be at no cost to the employee and
includes documenting the route(s) of exposure and the circumstances. The healthcare
professional will provide a limited written opinion to the employer and all diagnoses must
remain confidential.
Use of labels and signs to communicate hazards. Warning labels must be placed on
containers of regulated waste; containers of contaminated reusable sharps, containers of
contaminated reusable sharps, refrigerators and freezers containing blood, to name a few.
Provide information and training to employees. The City must ensure that all City
employees receive regular training that covers all elements of this policy including, but not
limited to: information on bloodborne and diseases, methods used to control occupational
exposure, hepatitis B vaccine, and medical evaluation and post-exposure follow-up
procedures. This training must be completed at initial hire, and then annually thereafter. The
Safety Committee is working with the League of Minnesota Cities to develop a training plan for
this policy.
Maintain worker medical and training records. The City must also maintain medical and
training records.
Recommendation:
Attached are Resolution 7783 and the Bloodborne Pathogen Policy. Staff recommends approval of
this policy. This policy would serve as compliance under the OSHA regulation relating to Bloodborne
Pathogens.
Respectfully submitted,

A. Discussion with Representative Tom Tillberry 36
B. Discussion with Senator Pam Wolf 37
38
Representative Tom Tillberry introduced himself to the Council and thanked them for their time 39
this evening. He reported on recent events taking place at the House of Representatives. 40
41
Representative Tillberry explained that the House majority has shifted this year, which would 42
change the dynamic of both the House and the Senate. At this time, the governor’s budget bill 43
was incomplete and actions were slightly delayed for this year. The legislative session was due 44
Mounds View City Council April 11, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 2
to wrap up May 23rd and all parties involved would be working diligently to close the gaps in the 1
State’s deficit. 2
3
4
Senator Pam Wolf introduced herself to the Council, thanked them for their time, and stated she 5
appreciated the invitation to speak this evening. It was noted that all Omnibus bills went through 6
the Senate. Senator Wolf explained LGA would be holding for Mounds View at the same level 7
as 2010 and after 2011, LGA levels would be unknown. 8
9
Council Member Gunn questioned what was proposed within the Education Bill. Senator Wolf 10
indicated cuts were proposed, with the goal being to move toward reforms that would emphasize 11
proficiency in the learners. The State would like to see children become proficient readers by 12
Grade Three. Funding for Special Education would be difficult in the short term but better in the 13
long term. 14
15
Council Member Mueller asked if the State was investigating how to reduce unfunded mandates, 16
to reduce the burden being passed along to municipalities. Representative Tillberry indicated a 17
reduction bill was being discussed but there has not been support to date. 18
19
Council Member Mueller requested additional information from the Transportation Committee 20
and the proposed light rail system in St. Paul. Senator Wolf stated the Omnibus bill prioritized 21
the bussing systems and would work towards greater efficiencies before raising fares. The light 22
rail connection between Minneapolis and St. Paul had not been greatly discussed. The focus at 23
this time was the Central Corridor. 24
25
Council Member Stigney questioned how the State was breaking down the budget reductions 26
based on the three R’s. Senator Wolf indicated the primary goal of the Senate at this time was 27
for the State to live within its means without raising taxes. There has been discussion on 28
increased sales taxes, but no determination has been made to date. 29
30
Representative Tillberry further reviewed how he would continue to work on LGA to create a 31
more fair system. 32
33
Dan Mueller, 8343 Groveland Road, commented on the sacrifices that would be made to 34
education. He recognized the sacrifices that were also being made by residents throughout the 35
State with lost jobs, decreased wages and high gas prices. Mr. Mueller stated the residents are 36
running out of wealth. 37
38
Mayor Flaherty thanked the representatives for presenting the Council and residents with 39
valuable information this evening. He encouraged Senator Wolf and Representative Tillberry to 40
continue to work towards reform that benefits their constituents. He noted the unfunded 41
mandates that trickle down to the cities have greatly stressed municipalities given the fact LGA 42
has been cut. He suggested the House and Senate work together and find common ground for the 43
benefit of the State and its residents. 44
45
Mounds View City Council April 11, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 3
C. Discussion with Ramsey County Sheriff Matt Bostrom 1
2
Ramsey County Sheriff Matt Bostrom introduced himself to the Council and thanked them for 3
their time this evening. He commented on his first 100 days of service and how he has worked to 4
encourage collaboration between law enforcement agencies for the betterment of Ramsey County 5
residents. 6
7
Sheriff Bostrom indicated the City of Mounds View was served well by Police Chief Kinney. He 8
was pleased to serve the community and proud to work with the men and women in Ramsey 9
County. 10
11
Council Member Mueller thanked the Sheriff for inviting all Boy Scouts in the County to an 12
event in March, which was very well attended and a great way to provide outreach and positive 13
leadership to the youth in the area. Sheriff Bostrom agreed this was a great event and stated he 14
would continue to encourage his deputies to come alongside youth through positive interactions. 15
16
Mayor Flaherty thanked Sheriff Bostrom for attending this evening’s meeting and welcomed him 17
to the community. He was pleased that his deputies were engaged in the community. 18
19
7. COUNCIL BUSINESS 20
A. Resolution 7768, Adopting a Calendar for the Preparation of the 2012 21
Budget. 22
23
Finance Director Beer indicated the 2012 budget calendar was about to commence. He noted the 24
City was mandated to publish a schedule to meet the Charter requirement. Public meeting dates 25
were noted within this calendar. The dates were reviewed in detail and the information has been 26
posted on the City’s website. Staff requested the Council approve the 2012 budget calendar. 27
28
MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Hull. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7768, Adopting 29
a Calendar for the Preparation of the 2012 Budget. 30
31
Council Member Stigney noted the long term stability of the budget should also be reviewed 32
through the budgeting process. Finance Director Beer noted the five year Financial Plan would 33
be discussed through the budget process. 34
35
Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. 36
37
B. Resolution 7767, Approving the Hire of Andrew Olson to the Position of 38
Police Officer. 39
40
Police Chief Kinney requested the Council approve the hire of Andrew Olson to the position of 41
Police Officer. He noted this was a replacement position for a vacancy the department has had 42
for a year and a half. The Police Civil Service Commission did certify an active eligibility list in 43
mid-February. From that list, the top candidate was Andrew Olson. Police Chief Kinney felt Mr. 44
Olson would be a great fit with the Police Department. He stressed the importance of public 45
Mounds View City Council April 11, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 4
safety given the current budget constraints and encouraged the Council to approve the new hire to 1
allow the department to maintain its proper staffing level. 2
3
MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Gunn. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7767, 4
Approving the Hire of Andrew Olson to the Position of Police Officer to the Mounds View 5
Police Department. 6
7
Council Member Stigney noted Andrew Olson appeared to be a great candidate for the Police 8
Officer position. However, he encouraged each department head within the City to further 9
evaluate the structure of their department to create greater staffing efficiencies rather than just 10
rehiring open positions. This would greatly assist given the current budget constraints. 11
12
Ayes – 4 Nays – 1 (Stigney) Motion carried. 13
14
C. Resolution 7770, Authorizing the Advertisement for the Engineering/GIS 15
Intern. 16
17
Public Works Director DeBar stated in June of 2006 the Public Works Department hired an 18
engineering intern in lieu of a seasonal position. This hire was in response to the upcoming City 19
capital improvement projects. The position was adjusted last February to include GIS duties to 20
greater assist the City on a part-time basis. He explained the intern was a cost effective way for 21
the City to complete GIS tasks without needing to hire an outside consultant. 22
23
Public Works Director DeBar noted the position was fully funded by the Water and Sanitary 24
Sewer Enterprise Fund. He understood there were no guarantees the position would continue 25
beyond the 1-3 year term. He explained the current intern, Kevin Cook, has resigned his 26
position. Staff requested the Council authorize advertisement for another engineering/GIS intern. 27
The position would greatly assist the Public Works Department with the unfunded mandate for a 28
traffic sign inventory, evaluation and plan. 29
30
Mayor Flaherty questioned when the GIS mapping for the City would be complete. Public 31
Works Director DeBar explained this was an ongoing process that allowed the maps to be stored 32
in electronic databases for the City. 33
34
Mayor Flaherty suggested the City collaborate with the City of New Brighton on the sign 35
inventory as they had purchased a new piece of equipment to create signs. 36
37
Council Member Mueller indicated the previous intern did great work on behalf of the City. She 38
questioned if the unfunded mandate allowed the intern to be paid through the Water and Sanitary 39
Sewer Enterprise Fund. Public Works Director DeBar explained this was the case. 40
41
Council Member Mueller asked if the intern was affordable given the fact the City would be 42
refurbishing the water tower and completing Area D this summer. Public Works Director DeBar 43
indicated this was not a new position, but rather filling a current vacancy and was budgeted for 44
2011. 45

D. Resolution 7771, Awarding a Construction Contract with Northwest Asphalt, 9
Inc. and Authorizing Bonestroo to Provide Engineering Services for the 10
Construction Phase of the 2011 Street and Utility Improvement Project – 11
Area D. 12
13
Public Works Director DeBar stated on February 28th the Council approved the plans and 14
specifications for Area D and authorized advertisement of bids. The City received eight bids for 15
the project with the lowest bid being received by Northwest Asphalt from Shakopee. He 16
explained this was the same vendor used for Areas B and C and completed great work on behalf 17
of the City. He indicated that Bonestroo would complete the staking for the project to eliminate 18
any conflict of interest. 19
20
Public Works Director DeBar indicated the bidding environment was still favorable and the City 21
was fortunate to complete work for this improvement project. MnDOT has approved the City’s 22
street improvement plans and State funding was available. He then reviewed a letter from the 23
vendor along with a proposal from Bonestroo for engineering services for this project. He 24
anticipated a neighborhood meeting would be held in early May. Staff recommended the Council 25
award the construction contract to Northwest Asphalt and authorize Bonestroo to provide 26
engineering services for the Construction Phase of the 2011 Street and Utility Improvement 27
Project for Area D. 28
29
Council Member Mueller questioned what percentage of project costs is Bonestroo’s fee (for 30
construction service). Public Works Director DeBar estimated 11% to 12% of the total 31
construction costs. Fees were lower than in the past as the City has assumed and clarified a 32
portion of the tasks. 33
34
Mayor Flaherty requested that Bonestroo provide a better bid for staking as their bid was quite 35
high in relation to the bids received. Joe Rhein, Bonestroo, explained the price included 36
surveying and staking for the entire project based on City standards. He added that the City 37
would see savings overall due to the efficiencies provided by Bonestroo in completing these 38
services through a reduction in inspection services. 39
40
Council Member Mueller noted the bid being approved this evening was for bid base one without 41
the alternate. Mr. Rhein indicated this was correct. 42
43
MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Hull. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7771, 44
Awarding a Construction Contract with Northwest Asphalt, Inc. and Authorizing Bonestroo to 45
Mounds View City Council April 11, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 6
Provide Engineering Services for the Construction Phase of the 2011 Street and Utility 1
Improvement Project – Area D. 2
3
Council Member Mueller asked how many contractors bid last year for Areas B and C. Public 4
Works Director DeBar noted Areas B and C had 15 bids and some contractors may have gone 5
out of business or did not have the bonding capacity for the Area D project. 6
7
Mayor Flaherty questioned how many subcontractors were anticipated for this project. Public 8
Works Director DeBar indicated very few were used by this vendor. He explained only the 9
concrete work and landscaping would be subbed out. The City had a great working relationship 10
with Northwest Asphalt. 11
12
Ayes – 5 Nays – 0 Motion carried. 13
14
Public Works Director DeBar asked if the Council would like Staff to advertise for bids for 15
engineering services. 16
17
Council Member Gunn felt the current provider understood the City’s overall project and 18
guidelines well and did not feel it was necessary at this time. She felt it would be a mistake to 19
change vendors at this time because she saw the entire street improvement project as a single 20
issue, not individual projects. 21
22
Council Member Mueller agreed with this comment. She did not want to see the timeliness of 23
the future projects to be jeopardized. 24
25
Council Member Hull questioned if Bonestroo’s rates were competitive. Public Works Director 26
DeBar indicated Bonestroo’s rates were competitive. For this reason, Council Member Hull 27
requested the City keep the current engineering services provider. 28
29
Council Member Stigney felt the City should not be making a decision on the issue this evening. 30
31
Mayor Flaherty stated the City would be doing its due diligence if it were to seek alternate bids. 32
He favored receiving a recommendation from the Street and Utility Commission as well. 33
34
Public Works Director DeBar commented he this issue was brought up last year to the Street and 35
Utilities Committee and a consensus was not reached. He indicated that most of the Committee 36
members were fine with City staff making the decision of which consultants to recommend 37
hiring. 38
39
Finance Director Beer explained there would be an expense and Staff time needed to create an 40
RFP. He did feel there was time to stay on schedule for Area E if solicitations were sought 41
soon. 42
43
Mounds View City Council April 11, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 7
Public Works Director DeBar noted there would be a lag if a new provider were brought on. The 1
new provider would have a learning curve as instruction would be needed on how the street 2
improvement program operates. 3
4
Mayor Flaherty did not have a clear definition on what engineering services should be for capital 5
improvement projects. He stated this was the residents’ money and he wanted to be sure the City 6
was expending it wisely. 7
8
Council Member Hull recommended the Council remain loyal to a vendor that has provided great 9
service to the City. 10
11
Mayor Flaherty suggested staff request the consulting engineer percentages being charged to 12
neighboring communities for their street improvement projects. 13
14
Council Member Mueller did not feel it was necessary for Staff to draft an RFP at this time. 15
Based on her research of engineering fees, approximately initially 18 months ago she felt the 16
City was receiving a great value from Bonestroo and a change in engineering provider’s mid-17
project would set the City back. 18
19

Community Development Director. 12
13
Council Member Stigney expressed concern with the payment of floating holidays to Mr. 14
Roberts, which went against the regulations within the Personnel Manual. He indicated he would 15
not support the Resolution for that reason. He commended Mr. Roberts on his service and 16
dedication to the community. 17
18
Mayor Flaherty stated the policy was changed minutes before the termination of Mr. Roberts. 19
City Administrator Ericson further explained that the timing of the layoff of Mr. Roberts was 20
such that he was not afforded the opportunity to use the personal floating holiday. He noted this 21
was a special case and would not be the practice going forward. 22
23
Council Member Stigney stated that Mr. Roberts has 3 months in which to use his two floating 24
holidays. 25
26
Mayor Flaherty understood that the Council voted on the Personnel Manual but felt the severance 27
payment should be approved as submitted. 28

proper fund balances to account for this. 42

the first quarter and would pick up in the second and third quarters. It was reported the three of 1
the four TIF district funds were doing well. 2

Finance Director Beer indicated Area D and the water tower rehabilitation were major projects 4
the City would fund in 2011. He noted that the economy was still slow and investments were 5
earning an extremely low rate at this time. The State’s unemployment rate is at 6.6% at this time 6
which indicated the State was struggling and having a hard time recovering from the downturn. 7
8
Finance Director Beer stated the City was waiting to hear from the State on the market value 9
homestead credits and LGA. At this time, the City has been told to not anticipate more than 10
received in 2010. He indicated the City just completed its annual audit and it will be reviewed in 11
detail at a meeting in May. The information was available on the City’s website. 12

Director Beer stated the fund transfer would be replaced with revenues as the year progressed. 15
He reported that the community center had a deficit of only $20,000 in 2010. 16

City’s water tower. Finance Director Beer stated AT&T was looking to locate at this site along 19
with a wireless provider. 20
21

renovations this summer and all MetroComm antennas were going to removed, which would free 24
up space. 25

explained the City had a cash balance of $915,000 in park dedication funds. 28

building to help distinguish between city hall and the community center. He reviewed the 33
renderings and quotes with the Council. JDI Signs submitted a low bid for the 24” sign at 34
$1,860. He requested feedback from the Council on this issue noting it would be paid for by 35
funds undesignated, donated from Bethlehem Baptist church. 36
37
Council Member Gunn agreed with the recommendation of Staff and suggested Council proceed 38
with the sign. 39
40
Council Member Mueller also agreed, stating this would assist with visually labeling the building 41
in the community. 42
43
Mounds View City Council April 25, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 7
Council Member Hull supported the signage as well, and asked if the City’s logo could be 1
incorporated into the signages. City Administrator Ericson stated this would customize the sign 2
and increase the expense. 3
4
Council Member Stigney questioned the location of the signage and if it could be seen from the 5
highway. He did not feel enough options were explored to approve the expenditure at this time. 6
7
Mayor Flaherty asked if the sign would be illuminated. City Administrator Ericson noted Staff 8
was not proposing to light the sign. He felt it would be visible through surrounding lights. He 9
indicated staff could come back to Council with additional options for the Bethlehem Baptist 10
Church undesignated funds. 11
12
Mayor Flaherty indicated he would support the sign as it would assist the general public in 13
identifying and accessing the community center. 14
15
Council Member Stigney expressed concern about the placement of the sign. Mayor Flaherty 16
suggested the placement be determined at a later date. 17
18
Mayor Flaherty suggested Staff draft a Resolution and present this to Council in two weeks. 19
20
City Administrator Ericson again discussed the Town Hall meeting stating he received a great 21
deal of positive feedback from the public. He proposed next year’s meeting begin at 7:00 p.m. 22
and those interested in arriving early could speak with Staff. This would reduce confusion on the 23
start time. The Council was in favor with this recommendation. 24
25
City Administrator Ericson reviewed the process of getting items on the agenda. The Council 26
felt there was no need to change the current policy. 27

30
Mayor Flaherty requested the Mounds View Lions be invited to the June work session meeting. 31
32
Council Member Mueller questioned if the joint meeting between Mounds View, Spring Lake 33
Park and Blaine had been scheduled. City Administrator Ericson indicated the joint meeting 34
would be held on May 25 th. 35
36
City Administrator Ericson noted Police Chief Kinney presented the Council with information on 37
the Cops Grant to assist with community oriented policing. He noted this grant process was 38
highly competitive and would cover the expense of a new officer for three years, with the City 39
paying for the fourth year. Direction from Council on the opportunity was needed at this time. 40
41
Council Member Hull was not in favor of the grant opportunity. He proposed this grant be 42
sought when the City was facing a potential retirement. 43
44
Council Member Stigney agreed. 45
Mounds View City Council April 25, 2011
Regular Meeting Page 8

Council Member Mueller encouraged Staff to apply for the grant as it would provide the City 2
with a great community oriented policing opportunity. The funds could possibly be used for a K-3
9 unit. 4
5
Council Member Gunn did not feel the grant opportunity was a priority at this time. 6
7
Mayor Flaherty commented that the Police Department was fully staffed and without a pending 8
retirement, the City could not support an additional officer. 9
10
City Administrator Ericson noted the City’s Spring Clean Up day was scheduled for Saturday, 11
May 7 th from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the public works building. It was noted that computers, 12
monitors and hard drives could be dropped off free of charge. 13
14
City Administrator Ericson explained he met with the owner from Creative Kids Academy and 15
passed along the Council’s offer, regarding a two year lease extension. The owner was agreeable 16
to the lease extension and this would come before the Council on May 9th. 17
18
Mayor Flaherty commented on Mary Tatarek’s retirement party noting it was very well attended 19
by past and present City officials. He thanked Mary for her 31 years of service to the City of 20
Mounds View and noted she would be greatly missed by all. 21
