Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; Staff, has been working on design of the Police. Dept. parking lot in the hopes of developing a plan to fit the new and existing conditions of the buildings, and within a reasonable budget. Jim Hess has designed and redesigned the facility many times and has now produced a plan that has addressed the concerns of the party's involved. Included with this parking lot is an additional site for off street parking on Edgewood Drive, north of the police drive and south of the water treatment plant. With the ever increasing need for parking space at city hall, staff concurred that if feasible, this additional lot should be constructed at the same time. This would alleviate some congestion at city hall during council meetings and softball games. Jim is meeting with Steve Campbell from SEH to discuss any comments or corrections on Wednesday and will have an estimate ready for Tuesday's work session. It is important to proceed with this project ASAP, as it directly effects the reconstruction of the ballfield to the north of the driveway. Funding for this project is suggested to come from account 100-4270-705 , the Silver Lake Woods account.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) ,KUMMARY; Staff is preparing a grant proposal for the acquisition and development of property for a park located in the south western quadrant of the city, Woodale and Pleasant View Dr. This land is owned by Mr. Belisle who is agreeable to selling the land to the City for a park. The land is 3 acres and abuts backlots of homeowners properties on the north and east side of the property. Woodale Dr. is the south border and Pleasant View Dr. street easement is the west border. There are mature trees located on the west border. The land is level and upland and clear, quite conducive to park facility development. The appraisal of the land is $25, 000 per parcel or $50, 000 total. Development plans indicate a paved parking lot which can be duplicated for a basketball court, four square and other court games during the daytime when cars would probably not be parked in the lot. A large multi-age accessible playground structure with additional swings would be located at the park. In addition, a multi-purpose ballfield which would be used for t-ball, 8-ball, and youth softball as well as soccer and perhaps flag football would be developed. Park amenities would include benches, picnic table and grill, park rule signs and park identification sign, trash receptacles and landscaping. Parking would accommodate approximately 14 cars off street. The park is easily accessible to the residents living west of Silver Lake Road and south of Hwy 10 . Residents who live in this quadrant can walk drive or bike to the park without crossing any major roads. The area is located in a residential area. s --.; ;;Ae!,C0-27 Mary Saarion, it c arks, Recreation and Forestry RECOMMENDATION• STAFF REPORT PAGE TWO JULY 5, 1994 The Outdoor Recreation grant is a 50% matching grant. The push is for development of park acquisition proposal to ensure that the land is used for recreational purposes. The grant can be funded over a 3 year period. Therefore, park acquisition can be funded one year and development the next year. This is indicated on the 1995 capital improvement budget proposal and the 1996 Long Term Financial Plan. The grant will require a commitment from the City Council for the 50% matching funds for 1995 acquisition and 1996 development phases. The grant will be indicating $50, 000 for acquisition and $68 , 000 for development for a total project amount of $116, 000 or $58 , 000 match; $25, 000 for 1995 acquisition phase and $34 , 000 for 1996 development phase. A public hearing is required for the grant proposal. Also a letter or resolution from the City Council approving the grant proposal and matching grant funding is required. Staff wishes to discuss this grant proposal with the City Council at the work session to ensure that this is something that the Council wishes staff to pursue. The grant is due August 1, 1994 . a rough concept map is attached as an idea of the proposed park layout. 1 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: 7-5/94 90:00 •1 ~, STAFF REPORT Report Number: s.. AGENDA SESSION DATE July 5, 1995 Report Date: 6/30/94 DISPOSITION Item Description: Discussion Regarding Liquor Licensing Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report J - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplemen sheets as cessary.) SUMMARY; At the June, 1994 Council Worksession, five fee options that were developed with the three proprietors affected by the. City's on-sale with cabaret liquor license were presented to the Council for direction. At that time, Council directed staff to look further at the option that would base the liquor license fee on square footage that is primarily bar area and square footage that is primarily dining area. To determine the closest true cost possible for administering the fee, staff used the average cost of a police call to one of these establishments ($35/hr. x 1. 5 hr = $52 .50) plus the cost to administer the license and other indirect costs such as prosecution services ($2 . 50) for a total average cost per call of .$55. The Police Department provided staff with the number of calls for last year to help determine the total cost per establishment based on calls. Since it is impossible to determine what areas of an establishment drew police calls, for calculation purposes, 75% of the total calls were used for bar area and 25% for dining area. The total cost of servicing each establishment was then divided by the square footage of the bar area and dining area which yielded the multiplier used to determine the fee (multiplier x square ft. ) . The cost per call for the dining areas was reduced by 50% because less liquor is consumed in these areas. Following are the calculations for each establishment. 4's 0.41,011)( Tim Cruikshank, Asst. to City Admin.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; John Purves, representing Wolf and Associates, has made application for a Development Review to allow the construction of a 9,566 square foot addition to their existing facility, at 4860 Mustang Circle. Staff has reviewed the request and found that, as proposed, the development meets all requirements of the Municipal Code as it relates to setbacks, parking, land use, etc. Provision for the handling of storm water runoff on the site was addressed in 1991 when a similar proposal was approved by both the Planning Commission and the City Council. In addition to the facility expansion, the applicant is also requesting that the easement for the former water tower site immediately adjacent to the subject property be vacated so that it can be utilized for storage area. Staff has had preliminary discussions with the Director of Public Works regarding possibly vacating the easement. I will forward his recommendation on Tuesday evening. The Mounds View Planning Commission has completed their preliminary review of this item and has directed Staff to prepare a resolution of favorable recommendation to be formally acted upon at their July 6, 1994 meeting. I have included all materials received as part of this submittal for your review. Staff only received one site plan - it will be available Tuesday. / ( aui Harrington, Communi Development Coordinator RECOMMENDATION; 5229 `'5220 `- tiry • , sz 1 5220 Cr 5210 5215 5210 "VI' ryryh '5200 5209 5200 ti E _ o o.4- 0° dikihn - N N N N N N N N N N 1 N On tio` nMN ti <,..,,,r, Z 4 �Grillik° .4 6' • R�oE W RICE..- CREEK 11 0 M a, n hr> M NNN N N N RD H 0111:41# . . — in Q 4 w V -' w ''i by. z 5� TOWNS EDGE TERRACE 111T _ • ..,.......,... q 94 7.

The company designs, engineers and manufactures bulk material handling systems, large conveyor systems, for industries such as pulp and paper, resource recovery, power generation and mining. Presently, the company does about 25% of its fabrication at the Mounds View facility. The remainder of the fabrication is subcontracted to fab shops throughout the metro area and the United States. A primary objective of the expansion is to increase the level of in-house fabrication to 50%. Two years ago, a 50 foot expansion of the facility was approved by the city. Because of economic constraints, Wolf and Associates put that expansion program on hold. We now seek to move ahead with this objective. At issue in this proposal are noise considerations as they may affect the residents in the neighboring trailer court. Currently, Wolf does receive complaints of noise, especially during its second shift, because of the proximity of this residential area to an industrial zoned facility. Although noise from the facility has been found not to violate city statutes, Wolf does seek to be a good neighbor and is interested in helping to alleviate this problem. The expansion proposed takes the noise issue into consideration by pushing the building out 100 feet rather than 50 feet. This would accommodate a truck drive through lane inside the building and eliminate doors on the north side of the building. The solid wall of the building adjacent to the trailer court would then serve as a noise barrier between production and the residential area. In addition, loading trucks inside the building rather than outside would help to reduce noise significantly. Such a building design would necessitate truck travel on the Fast side of our building. Currently this area is used for parking and steel storage. To make this design feasible, Wolf seeks to acquire the parcel of land on which the city water tower formerly stood. This would give us additional space for inventory and vehicle storage and accommodate truck traffic and additional parking requirements for the expanded facility. Wolf has discussed obtaining the water tower plot of land in the past. In those discussions the City has also expressed interest in obtaining an easement on the west end of the property to establish an emergency access to the trailer home park. We feel both of these objectives could be accommodated in conjunction with the building expansion. The expansion under consideration would create new jobs and promote economic development in the City of Mounds View. Accordingly, the project meets the guidelines for an economic development grant through the State of Minnesota. Wolf and Associates has retained the services of a consultant specializing in this area to work with state and local officials for the purpose of writing the grant request and obtaining the funds. The effect of these efforts would be the establishment of a permanent revolving economic development fund for the City of Mounds View. The fund would enable Mounds View to help other local businesses expand in the future. REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: 9.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; Ken Sjodin, representing Citywide Developers, has made application for a Major Subdivision of the property indicated on the attached map. The proposal calls for 17 single family lots to be located northeast of the Spring Lake Road/Highway 10 intersection. The proposed development would be partially serviced by a cul-de-sac to be constructed at the expense of the applicant. Staff has reviewed the proposal and found that it meets the general intent of the Municipal Code. Two items do need to be addressed: 1) The size of a proposed lot on the corner of Spring Lake Road and Highway 10; and, 2) The possible need for storm water control ponding to service the development. Updates on both of these issues will be provided on Tuesday evening. The Mounds View Planning Commission has reviewed this item and is scheduled to take formal action on the request at their July 6, 1994 meeting.

REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: DUNES MY STAFF REPORT Report Number: 94-1230WS AGENDA SESSION DATE July 5, 1994 Report Date: 6-30-94 DISPOSITION Item Description: Discussion of Request for Extension of Conditional Use Permit, Church Upon the Rock Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report -410, - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) [IMMARY; Church Upon the Rock, 7901 Red Oak Drive, has made application for an extension of a Conditional Use Permit to allow for the continued use of a temporary accessory structure on residentially zoned property. The applicant was originally granted a Conditional Use Permit for the accessory structure by the City Council. Passed in 1988, City Council Resolution No. 2320 contained a "sunset" clause which effectively revoked the permit after a five year period. Last year (1993), the City Council granted a one-year extension to the C.U.P. The attached letter more fully explains the applicants current request. For review: In 1988, the Planning Commission and the City Council gave approval for the location of a temporary accessory building at 7901 Red Oak Drive (Resolution No. 2320). At the time of approval, both the Commission and the Council had concerns about the available off-street parking area on the site, the lack of an improved surface for those existing parking facilities and, the proposed use for the accessory building. In order to somewhat address those concerns, the approval for the temporary structure included the aforementioned sunset clause. The specific language of the Resolution stipulated that the temporary structure he removed after a five year period and replaced with a permanent building. Additionally, at the end of this five year period, the site (i.e. parking facilities and surface) were required to be upgraded to meet current City codes. The concern with the use of the building was addressed in a separate resolution. In September of 1993, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 4409 which, in part, extended the Conditional Use Permit to July 1, 1994. At this time, the applicant is requesting that an additional extension of two (2) years be granted to allow more time for the Church to assess its needs and options in relation to the site. The Mounds View Planning Commission has reviewed the request and is tentatively scheduled to take formal action on the request at their July 6, 1994 meeting. I have provided all other materials received as a part of this request in addition to all documents referenced in this memorandum. f e Poul Harrin ton Community D elopment Coordinator RECOMMWN1 ATION: Staff seeks Council direction on this matter.

Dear Commissioners: Church Upon the Rock respectfully requests a two-year extension of City of Mounds View Resolution No. 4409 granting a special use permit for a temporary accessory structure at 7901 Red Oak Drive. The accessory structure is being used by Church Upon the Rock and Northside Christian School for classrooms and is essential to both. This requested extension is necessary because our plan to relocate to the Rice Creek Center in New Brighton failed to be approved by the City of New Brighton and has forced us to sell that property and look for a new location. We are presently negotiating a purchase agreement with a buyer on the New Brighton property which includes the acquisition of land in the City of Blaine. However, this will require a new building plan and all the subsequent approvals by the City of Blaine as well as time for construction. • Therefore, we request this two-year extension of Resolution No. 4409 to give us the time we need to work through this relocation process. Thank you for your consideration of this matter. Sincerely, AJim410, \ejti Gordon Steck Senior Pastor GS/nm Jesus said,"Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine,and acts upon them,may be compared to a wise man,who built his house upon the rock.And the rain descended,and the floods came,and the winds blevg and burst against that house;and yet it did not fall,for it had been founded upon the rock."

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY: Attached please find the Ramsey County Work Plan for the Maplewood and Mounds View Yard Waste Site Searches. Maplewood has one site and has asked Ramsey County to find an additional site for their community. ' Zak Hansen and I have been in communication on a weekly basis regarding the alternative site search for Mounds View. He is still working with TCCAP and MnDot for potential sites. One of the approaches that was briefly discussed during the early stages of trying to find a workable solution to the City's on-going costs for hauling brush and other materials off the Ardan site was the possibility of leasing the land to the County for a noaninal amount and allowing the County to assume all responsibility for operating and maintaining the site. While the City could certainly impose very definite, but reasonable, restrictions on the operations and maintenance requirements, it would alleviate the on-going costs the City is experiencing and continue to provide a service to the community while, at the same time, allowing the City time to develop a planned approach to the development of Ardan Park. From very preliminary discussions with Zak Hansen, it appears that the County would be receptive to this concept. The wood Chipper has arrived. Councilmember Quick has requested that the Council discuss and develop a policy on its use. Staff is seeking direction in the concept of leasing Ardan Park to the County fo a time period as yet undefined.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) ,SUMMARY; As requested, the following is an—overview of the job responsibilities of the Planning Associate, Joyce Pruitt and a brief update on her current activities. The primary responsibility of Joyce's position (75% - 80%) will be to enforce Zoning, Sign, Parking, Nuisance, etc. Codes which have been adopted by the City Council and are part of the Municipal Code. Examples of the positions' duties would include: assuring all land use regulations are being met, control of the location of off-street parking and ensure that improved surfaces are being used for such, regulation of home occupations and items for sale within residential and other districts (i.e. cars for sale, equipment for sale) , general enforcement of Nuisance Ordinance (garbage, debris, weeds or other rank growth, etc. ) . The position is responsible for responding to citizen complaints and proactively correcting violations which are observed during the course of regular "patrolling" . Additional, but less emphasized, responsibilities of the position would be to keep abreast of planning issues within the City so that in the event the Community Development Coordinator is unavailable to the public, Planning Commission or City Council, this position could fill in as Staff liaison to those groups. Also, it is anticipated that Joyce will assist the Community Development Coordinator to some degree on planning related studies and projects. Currently, Joyce has been involved in both reactive and proactive enforcement of the City Codes, as well as providing the Community Development Coordinator with suggestions on wording for the revised Nuisance Code. Also, Joyce has met with representatives of the City of Apple Valley to discuss the merits of a computer software package which provides for the documentation and follow-up of code enforcement issues. Staff hopes to utilize some of the ideas being used in Apple Valley to develop a tracking system for Mounds View.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; Councilmember Quick requested that an item be placed on the Work Session Agenda which would address the concern of traffic sign violations (cars running or rolling through them) . The on-going issue of speeding in the City and the occasional public comment that people are "doing this" or "that" and people's dissatisfaction with what they think should be done or not being done prompted a discussion of Council expectations of the Police Department. At the FOCUS 2000 Forums and subsequent Issue Project Team discussions, few, if any, public safety issues were addressed to any significant degree. At the April Council/Staff Strategic Planning Session, once again, the role of the Police Department was not discussed in any detail. Other departments were provided with clear expectations, goals and direction by the Council as to what activities, programs and services that were to be accomplished within a set timeframe. The social fabric of all communities is changing at a rapid and often alarming rate. The role of Police Departments is changing even in small suburban communities. In order for a Department to remain successful, it must have the support of the governing body and a clear understanding of that body' s expectations, reflecting the overall community standards, values and perceptions. The City's Police Department deserves no less that to receive a specific time set aside for a thorough discussion of Council appreciation of their activities, expectations for performance, and suggestion for Department activities/programs, services. . l Sama ha Ordunio, City Administrator RECOMMENDATION; STAFF REPORT PAGE TWO JULY 6, 1994 In the context of a discussion regarding enforcement of traffic laws, it may be beneficial to address the current and future role of the Police Department in such areas as: * Code Enforcement * Coordination of activities with other Departments * New programs, services, activities * Communication - is the Council receiving enough information from the Department, too much, too litlle, what information is desired? Below are suggested questions Council may wish to consider prior to the Work Session. * What are the general and specific expectations of the Council for the Department? * What does the Council feel are the areas where the Department is performing at or above expectations? * What current activities/programs/services does the Council want continued, expanded, or decreased, if any? * What new programs/activities/programs would the Council like to see initiated by the Department? * What specific accomplishments does the Council wish to see occur in the short term (1994/95) and long term (end of the decade) ? * In what areas does the Council wish to see improvement? * Is there a need for additional community input (i. e. , a survey) to determine community expectations? Other Departments had the benefit of FOCUS 2000 input in shaping their goals and objectives. REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: 7.

Under the proposal, the rules would be amended to state that councilmembers will refrain from making negative personal comments, such as comments questioning the motives or ability of other elected officials, staff or persons appearing before the council. The proposal contemplates that if a councilmember violates the rule, the presiding officer will have the ability to limit further comments of the councilmember until a later time when the presiding officer again recognizes that councilmember's right to address the body. A second violation during the same meeting would result in suspension of the councilmember's opportunity to participate in further debate on that item, and a third violation during the same meeting would result in the member being asked to remove himself/herself from the meeting room. The city council clearly has the authority to adopt rules of order that prohibit council members from making negative personal comments about other members. However, the proposed remedies for violation of the rule exceed the council's authority, and I therefore recommend that the proposed ordinance be revised. It is a well-established principle that members of an elected body should refrain from making negative personal comments about other members. It is also an established principle that an elected official must not be precluded from participating in matters pertaining to the governmental body, unless the member has a conflict of interest. In addition, elected officials maintain the same First Amendment rights as other members of the public. In Kucinich v. Forbes, 432 F.Supp. 1101 (N.D. Ohio 1977), the court was asked to address the question of whether a councilmember could be suspended from JJT71463 MU125-11 f Mayor Jerry Linke and City Concilmembers June 9, 1994 Page 2 participation on a matter before the city council for violating a council rule that prohibited impugning the motive of another councilmember's argument or vote. The court concluded that because the councilmember's statements were protected by the First Amendment, the council could not prohibit him from participating in the debate, discussion and vote on the matter. As proposed, the remedies for violation of the no-negative-comments rule would conflict with the principles established in the Kucinich decision. Therefore, if the council wishes to amend its rules of order, I recommend that the penalties be revised. Examples of permissible penalties range from the chair declaring the councilmember out of order to, in extreme situations, official reprimand by the city council. I would be happy to answer any further questions you may have on this matter. Sincerely, esW. Thomson JJT:jes cc: Samantha Orduno JJT71463 MU125-11 !

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; Staff discussed at previous work sessions the possibility of the City of Mounds View assuming the permitting authority of it's wetland issues, and the process that must take place prior to it. Staff spoke with Rocky Keene. ( SEH Consultant ) and requested that he develop a schedule for assuming this authority and fees related. He recommended that this item be further discussed again at a work session, to provide staff and council with the pros and cons of permitting in-house. Should council decide that the City of Mounds View will assume authority once a permitting policy is in place, a resolution stating that should be adopted and sent to the Rice Creek Watershed District. /'_ / / e:/// /, Michael Ulrich, Public Works Director RECOMMENDATION; Amy/Mr SWEN 3535 VADNAIS CENTER DRIVE,200 SEH CENTER.ST PAUL.MN 55110 612 490-2000 800 325-2055 ARCHITECTURE • ENGINEERING • ENVIRONMENTAL • TRANSPORTATION June 6, 1994 RE: Mounds View, Minnesota Miscellaneous Water Resources Services Implementation of LWMP SEH No. A-MOUND9402.00 Mr. Mike Ulrich Director of Public Works City of Mounds View 2401 Highway 10 Mounds View, MN 55112 Dear Mike: Implementation of the Local Water Management Plan (LWMP) requires approval of ordinances to adopt the LWMP as the water resources "law" in the City. Once the ordinances have been approved by City Council, a permitting program can be established which allows the City to have control over all drainage and wetland issues in the City except county ditches. This letter agreement outlines the tasks and cost required to have the City take over permitting authority from Rice Creek Watershed District. This cost was not included in the scope of work for completion of the LWMP. Background Ordinances adopting the LWMP will provide the City with the necessary legal authority to manage their water resources. Adoption of the LWMP through ordinances will also allow the City to permit water resource related projects and meet the requirements proposed by agencies such as the Metropolitan Council. The LWMP was completed at the end of 1991 and submitted to the City Council for preliminary approval. After receiving preliminary approval, the plan was sent to RCWD for review. RCWD approved the plan on January 7, 1992. One of the conditions of their approval was that the City complete ordinances which adopt the LWMP as the guideline document for water resources management in the City. Upon formal adoption of the ordinances, the City will have to determine if they wish to be the permit authority for water resources related projects and administer the requirements of the Wetland Conservation Act of 1991. The LWMP contains a brief explanation of the permit programs the City will need to develop. The following tasks are required to implement the Local Water Management Plan: 1. Submit ordinance revisions to City Council so they can begin the process of incorporating them into the City code.

For the Week of June 27 - July 1 , 1994 ADMINISTRATION Well, DRAFT NO. 1 of the 1995 Budget will be delivered to Council on Friday. It is the result of more hours of work by staff than any other single document in recent history. Amidst all the stressful hours, Don Brager managed to lighten our day with the Top Ten Reasons Why the City is Changing to Program Budgeting. I have included it herein for your enjoyment. Hill and Multi-Tech The Agreements on both developments have been executed. The park dedication fees from Everest for the Hill project has been received. Unfortunately, all is not complete. It seems that part of the Outlots which are included in the Hill project are encumbered in a 1988 Development Agreement in which the City provided over $8 million in TIF. Everest sent a letter to Jim Thomson last week requesting that the City release the properties from the previous development commitment. I forwarded a copy to Jim O'Meara who has some questions regarding the inclusion of the land in a previous grant of TIF. As of this writing, Jim had not received the Release form from Tim Nelson, so he is "sitting" on this issue. The bottom line may be that TIF assistance was given for a portion of the property Everest wants to include in the Hill project. If the release is granted, it may mean that the project is receiving TIF funds twice on the same land. I should have more information for you on Wednesday. Multi-Tech has begun construction on their addition! REMINDER THE WORK SESSION IS ON TUESDAY, 7:00 PM AND THE BUDGET WORK SESSION IS ON WEDNESDAY, 6:00 P.M. Mayor's Schedule Mayor Linke will not be in attendance at the Tuesday Work Session due to a prior commitment in Mankato. He has requested that the Council consider tabling several of the Work Session Agenda items to the following night's Budget Work Session. The items requested for tabling have been noted as such in the Agenda. Senior Housing Project Good news from Bob Thistle, Springsted! Preliminary analysis of the profit margins for the senior center project appear to be well within acceptable margins for this type of development. Bob will be forwarding a letter to me next week, but he feels confident that the project would meet the "but for" test for the amount of increment granted. Samantha Economic Development Economic Development Commission: I have received 10 applications for EDC participation. Eight of the applications are from residents and two from businesses. I am still working on more business participation and will have a good mix for the EDA to review at the work session. I am anxious to establish the members and would like to have the first EDC meeting sometime in July. Retention: Grant Application: I spoke to the Department of Trade & Economic Development(DTED) regarding the status the application for an economic recovery grant. Unfortunately, the funds have already been allocated to existing applications and all new applications will be put into a tickler file to be reviewed upon available dollars. Funds would become available if current applications that are being review are not approved. This news is disheartening since Mounds View's application was submitted even before the funds were appropriated. We had thought we were ahead of the game. As you will recall, this grant would assist Wolf & Associates with their expansion and start a revolving loan fund for the City. Since our situation is time sensitive, waiting for the grant funds to maybe become available is not an option. I spoke to John Purves with Wolf & Associates and they will be reviewing their options. I will keep you posted on the progress. Cathy Proactive Streetlight Plan Five of the ten proactive streetlight installations for this year will take place in the next month. The five locations are: 2149 Hillview Road, 2201 Hillview Road, 7501 Bronson Drive, 2101 Hillview Road and 7618 Edgewood Drive. All of the affected property owners have been informed and there has been no opposition to the locations. NSP will next schedule the work with their crew members and they hope to complete the five installations by the end of July. Code Enforcement On Friday, 7/1, Councilmember Blanchard, Joyce Pruitt, and I will scour the east side of the City (east of Long Lake Road) recording code violations. After this last outing, Joyce will have seen almost every street and home in the City. New Legislation On Tuesday of this week, Don Brager, Cathy Bennett and I attended a seminar hosted by Briggs and Morgan. The seminar covered several new laws that affect local governments enacted during the 1994 Legislative Session. Some of the topics include ethics in government, annexation, Tax Increment Financing, the 1994 Omnibus Tax Bill and financing development projects. The ethics in government amendment changed the law to prohibit a lobbyist or a principal from giving a gift to an official. An official is defined as a public official, an employee of the legislature or a local official of a metropolitan government unit. A local official is defined as an elected or appointed official of a county or city or of an agency, authority or instrumentality of a county or city. A gift includes money, real or personal property, a service, a loan, forbearance or forgiveness of indebtedness or a promise of future employment. An interested person is defined as a person or representative of a person or association that has a direct financial interest in a decision that the local official is authorized to make. Some exceptions to the law are political contributions, services of insignificant monetary value, services to assist an official in their duties including providing advice, consultant, information and communication with legislation and services to constituents, a trinket or memento of insignificant value, informational material of unexceptional value, food or beverage given at a reception meal or meeting away from the recipients place of work by an organization before whom the recipient appears to make a speech or answer questions, if the gift is given because of the recipients membership in a group, a majority of whose members are not local officials and an equivalent gift is given to other members of the group. Violations to this law are misdemeanors. LMC Committee Appointment Last week I learned I was appointed to the League of Minnesota Cities Improving City Service Delivery Committee and to its Government Innovation and Cooperation Sub- Committee. Our committee is charged with the responsibility of developing policy to be enacted at the federal and state level that would first be proposed to the League membership. I will keep you posted on the specific issues that are discussed. Tim C. • PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY PARKS: * Steve and Jeff spent a long time this week fixing the sprinkling system at Silver View Park. * Jeff did rough cut mowing at Woodcrest, Silver View Park and Greenfield. * Mowing, trim work and trash removal is an on-going task for the seasonals. * Lambert Park playground was hit with graffiti on the new playground equipment - found Thursday morning. RECREATION: * There is a bad rumor going around town that an 8 year old brought a 9 mil. automatic pistol to Hillview Park playground. Such bad rumors devastate the reputation of the programs. No weapons are at the playcenters, the children are behaving very appropriately and the activities have been great fun! * Over 77 children are taking a trip with playcenters to French Regional Park in Plymouth. The Butterflies also went on a trip this week to Children's Museum. * Sharie is attending lots of planning meetings for the Festival. * The theater activities plugging right along, rehearsals, set building, costuming, lighting plans, etc. CABLE TV: * Jerry is doing shooting this week for the July "View From the Mound". * Jerry will also begin to shoot youth athletic games. FORESTRY: * The crew continues to trim bushes and tend trees at the various parks, visiting one park each week. GOLF COURSE: * The Golf Course Task Force meets Thursday evening to try to come up with a name for the course. * The building foundation for the clubhouse is set. The maintenance building is enclosed, with windows. * The bridges have been set, the boardwalk is ready to be installed. * Three vehicles have been ordered for golf course operations. * Many small tools, first aid kit and other supplies are being purchased on a regular basis, ready for action. * Chad, summer seasonal, is getting the place "spiffy". Mary S. • FINANCE • Samantha and I will be looking into managed care for workers compensation. Under managed care the City would designate a state-certified managed care plan, and would require that employees receive medical treatment for job-related injuries through that designated plan. The managed care provider has a medical team that has experience and expertise in treating workers comp injuries and has treatment procedures that are designed to rehabilitate the injured employee and to get the employee back to work as quickly and efficiently as possible. The LMCIT will give cities that choose managed care a 5% credit on their workers comp premium. More importantly, managed care has the potential to enable the City to maintain its excellent claims experience and thus maintain our favorable experience modifier. • Work is progressing, although slower than Jerry Skelly would like, on the installation of the Council Chambers audiovisual equipment. All of the parts have arrived and nearly all that can be installed are. The presenters table is not finished. When it arrives Jerry will be able to complete installation of the controls which will be on the table. Don POLICE * Dave Anderson is having surgery (minor) this week. He will be back to work the 11th of July. * As you know, two new squads were recently put into service. The Problem--- They have not been converted to propane. We are having problems getting the electronic parts necessary for the conversion. Obviously, we are paying more for fuel than we want to. * The woman that is missing from New Brighton is a former Mounds View resident. We didn't have much information to help in their investigation. * Today is Bob Nelson's last day working in the office. He will begin working the squad tomorrow. Tim R. /t,_ PUBLIC WORKS Rocky Keene will be in attendance at the July 5, 1994 council work session to brief council on the steps required to prepare a permitting policy for surface water issues. Gary and Cheryl have been surveying the city to develop this year's patching contract. Results from last year's contract were very positive and affordable. Staff has many projects scheduled, and maintenance tasks remaining during the summer months, therefore rendering patching as the most attractive project for contract labor. The roofs at the treatment plants are near completion, with the tuckpointing still continuing. We are still holding out on the final payment to the contractor for the plant revisions. He still has a couple of very small items to correct before receiving over $ 13,000. I would think that would be quite an incentive! Radios were installed in the remaining staff cars last week and decals were applied this week. They look pretty good. Crowbar is finishing up his vacation this week, and Larry just started. By the looks of the vacation schedule it looks like that could be the pattern the rest of the summer. The valley gutter was poured at the intersection of Hillview and Edgewood Ct. yesterday, and have of the rip rap was secured. It doesn't appear that all items on the punch list will be completed by the deadline, although the major ones are receiving the required attention. Jim Hess has a final plan of the Police parking lot that all parties feel comfortable with and has submitted it to SEH for any comments or changes. This item is on the agenda for the July 5, 1994 council work session. I think that all of the staff is ready for this project to be complete. The reconstruction of the ballfield north of the driveway is being held up until the final grade is established on the parking lot. Mike ( COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT TREE TRIMMING BUSINESS AT 8142 RED OAK DRIVE Staff received a call from the neighbor of 8142 Red Oak drive regarding the tree trimming operation which is taking place there. It seems the noise has become unbearable and the resident would like something done. The Municipal Code does not allow home occupations which, among other things, are visible from public streets (which this one is), provides for outside storage of materials or equipment (which this one does) or, violates any provision of the Mounds View Nuisance Ordinance (ditto). Staff has spoken with this particular property owner in the past and somewhat addressed the issues of the neighbor, however, other arrangements may have to be made for the operation of the business. Staff expects that both parties involved will be speaking to the Council - so I just wanted to let you know the situation. OFFICE BUILDING ON HIGHWAY 10 Just an update to the information I gave you last week: A survey crew was out to the site (south of the Wash Me Car Wash on 10) this week and Staff has received numerous calls for zoning information, water and sewer locates, building permit fees, etc. I suspect that the project is being given some very serious consideration by the property owner. I will keep you posted. Paul H. st. t TOP TEN REASONS WHY THE CITY IS CHANGING TO PROGRAM BUDGETING 10. It provides job security for the Finance Department because they are the only ones who can understand it. 9. It will drive the Department Heads crazy. 8. If it's more complicated, it must be better. 7. Some guy wrote a book about it, so it must be the thing to do. 6. Citizens think all government workers are crooks and mistakenly believe program budgeting will make them more accountable. 5. Citizens can't understand present budget, so maybe they'll understand a different type of budget. 4. The Council is just beginning to understand the present budget, so we better change. 3. Other Cities are doing it. 2. If you can't dazzle them with your brilliance, baffle them with B.S. 1. The City Administrator. said so.
