For the Week of July 4-July 8,1994 ADMINISTRATIQN * Included herein are copies of all the Citizen Concern Logs that Joyce Pruitt has completed since she began her duties as the Planning Associate in charge of code enforcement. I have included all forms so that each one of you have an idea of the type of complaints she has received, code violations she is observing and pursuing. Hereafter, I will continue to include the Concern sheets in the black binder entitled, Citizen Concern Log, which is stored on the file cabinet in Michele's office area. I have also copied, for your information, Joyce's memo to Councilmember Blanchard regarding the follow-up to their Friday city-wide review. * On Wednesday, Don Brager and I met with a representative of a managed care organization to discuss possible participation by the City in a Worker's Compensation program. Several cities in the Metro area have entered into contracts with managed care providers as a way of reducing their Worker's Compensation costs. The process is one in which a worker injured on the job is processed through the managed care facility rather than their own personal physician. The goal is to assist the worker to return to full capacity as soon as possible. Utilizing a managed care facility would result in a 5% reduction in the City's Worker's Comp. insurance through the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust. Cost for the service are activated at the time of the employee injury and are billed through our risk management carrier. Since the City's Worker's Comp. experience factor is so low, the savings in the insurance premium may more than offset any possible fees resulting from a W.C. claim. Don and I will continue to explore p this potential cost saving and update you as soon as we have met with other managed care service providers. * The owners of the fourplex on Edgewood were served the Order for Abatement on June 30th. They have until July 20th to complete the abatement orders or the City will proceed in Ramsey County Court to secure authority to complete the work (by contract) and charge the costs against the property taxes. To my knowledge, the owner has not commenced the repairs. Two of the three families remain in the fourplex and do not plan to relocate. * I have included herein a copy of the Supreme Court ruling on the Agunbiade case. * Just a quick note regarding summer vacations: many staff members will be taking much deserved) summer vacations beginning now. There will be times, in the next few months, when staffing levels are very low and remaining staff are trying to do their best to complete their work and cover the duties of the temporary vacant position. We ask for your understanding, patience and support. Samantha Economic Development Attraction: • With a tip from Jerry Johnson of the Police Department, I have contacted a printing company located in Bloomingtone looking to move their operation. spoke with the president of the company and they are looking to purchase a 15,000-20,000 s.f. building. Unfortunately, Mounds View only has lease options in Mounds View Business Park and raw land . The president did mention that if he did not find an existing building that he would consider a build-to-suit. I will be putting a package of information together outlining the benefits of Mounds View and the properties that would be meet his criteria for lease and to build. Thank you Jerry for the information! • A general letter will be sent to Buffets, Inc. regarding opening a store in Mounds View. I read an article in Corporate Report that the soup and salad chain will be opening 50 new stores this year. This is a long shot but still worth pursuing, especially since I love soup and salad! Retention: • Last week I met with Dale Jones the owner of commercially zoned land along highway 10 near TJB Homes and Winniecki Insurance. He is very interested in working with the City to attract a buyer for his property. Mr. Jones has set a meeting with George Winniecki to discuss the option of marketing the properties as a whole. Mr. Jones is currently pursuing an offer for a senior housing project on the land that abuts Mounds View Drive and Silver Lake Road. I will continue to work with Mr. Jones and George Winniecki on options for the property. This may be a good topic to discuss at the first Economic Development Commission meeting! ♦ I received a call from an insurance agent who is working with the Pink Flower Restaurant regarding insurance requirements for a beer and wine license. Pink Flower has not made a decision to pursue a license but is in the process of looking at the costs and benefits. Last week I had a conversation with Ed Paster regarding liquor licenses in Mounds View Square and how the current code restricts issuance of licenses due to its proximity to the Church. Ed has recently spoke with the Church pastor and has assured me that they have no objection to liquor being served at restaurant establishments in the retail complex. Mark Your Calendars: ♦ Multi-Tech began construction and have scheduled a ground breaking ceremony for July 21 , 1994 at 1 :30 p.m. I will work with Scott Wiley regarding the formalities, press release and schedule for the ceremony. Please mark your calendars to attend! I will keep you updated on the specifics. Cathy Streetlight Request A streetlight installation has been requested for the 5200 block of Skiba Drive. 19 people signed the petition, 2 of whom were opposed but are not directly affected property owners. The request meets all of the criteria for installation, including spacing requirements. The requested location for installation is between 5249 and 5255 Skiba Drive. Airport Drive intersection A tentative meeting has been scheduled for 2 p.m., Tuesday, 7/12, with three of the four involved governmental jurisdictions for the installation of lights at the intersection of Airport Drive and Highway 118. 5 Year Goal Plan Work on the 5 year goal plan is underway and is scheduled for printing and delivery by the end of July. Tim C. • PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY PARKS: * The sprinkling system at Silver View Park has been repaired. A concrete floor has been poured in the manhole which houses the electrical panel and the pumps. A sump pump was installed last summer and the final touches have been completed on this system. It looks like the grass is responding to the water. * Mowing, brush removal at Silver View Park and chemical week control has been going on all week. * Steve and Jeff have been tying down the backstops at various park softball/baseball fields. * There is a shortage of woodchips around town - we are waiting for a delivery so that we can pursue the woodchipping of the path near the Scotland Green area and the disc golf areas at Silver View Park. RECREATION: * Sixty six children signed up for the trip to Sports Spree on Friday, July 8. We changed the trip from Cedar Lake Farm to Sports Spree because of the weather predictions for Friday. The children all love Sports Spree (our foul weather alternate trip). * The second session of swimming has commenced. Last week the pool was closed for one day due to chemical imbalance. This makes for a hectic day in the office trying to notify everyone of the cancellation. * Mary was off last week on a trip to Wisconsin Dells, Sharie is off a few days this week spending "quality time" with son #2, Chad, who is in the Midwest while on tour of the nation with the Madison Scouts, a prestigious drum & bugle corps. * Festival plans are set. A big centerfold publicity page was in the New Brighton Bulletin this week. It's a great piece! * Be sure to reserve your tickets for "Oliver". * Lakeside Park had another bout of Swimmer's Itch - it is the worst year that can remember for this problem. Other lakes are having problems too, large lakes that you won't think would have the problem ie. Lake Bemidji. It is unfortunate since the summer has been so hot and everyone is anxious to be swimming. Lakeside is such a nice beach! This is the 3-4 time that the beach is being treated this year alone. Each treatment is approximately $200 - we budget for 2 treatments each year. As you can tell, we are over budget already in the number of treatments and the summer is only 1/2 through. FORESTRY: * Rick has indicated that it is a very bad year in the City of Mounds View for Dutch Elm disease. He is unsure of the reason why it is so prevalent this summer. * Rick has continued to work on the Long Lake Road tree replacement project funded with State Aid monies. * The trees being planted as part of the Small Business Grant have been planted at Greenfield, Lambert, Silver View and City Hall. As we receive the final billing we will reconcile the City's responsibilities for the grant match and then with the remaining monies will purchase trees to plant at Oakwood Park near the bleacher areas and City Hall ballfield bleacher areas. * At this time last week their was a concern regarding the dryness of the turf, trees and bushes. However, weekend rains have provided relief. Hopefully intermittent rains will continue to provide the water needed. Mary S. FINANCE . Kitty Hickok will be on vacation next week; July 11-15. Don Brager will be taking a mini vacation; Friday July 8 & Monday July 11 . . Samantha & I met with Kelly Solheid of Corvel Corporation and learned about their managed care plan, CorCare, for workers compensation injuries. It appears to be a good plan with a large providers network. The Cities of Cottage Grove and Woodbury are presently clients. Samantha & I will talk to those Cities about their experiences with managed care and talk to another managed care provider. . Work continues on the 1995 Budget. Department Heads will be prioritizing items within their budgets and will meet next Tuesday to come up with recommended budget reductions. Don POLICE 1 . Bob Nelson leaves tomorrow for Orlando Fla. He is taking his family . Bob will be attending the DARE Conference. 2. Usually, the Fourth of July is somewhat quiet. Not this year, We made six arrest for domestic assault,three for theft from vehicle, one for terroristic threats. Throw in a couple of DUI's and we were busy. 3. Dave Brick attended a training meeting. He will be checking with the County Attorney for a legal update seminar. 4. I'm happy to report that all of computers survived the lightning storms of the past week. Tim R. PUBLIC WORKS Last week on Thursday staff was filling a swimming pool on Silver Lake Road, when a bus ran over the fire hose, causing a split in the hydrant lead from the water main. This type of break happens when, in effect water is shut off and turned on very fast. The pressure that was produced by the stoppage of flow by the bus tires, and the sudden release of flow exceeded the capacity of the pipe. As a result, the city had to repair the hydrant lead, which involved closure of a major street in town for one day, lost labor on pending projects, and repair of the street. For this reason the Public Works staff will no longer fill swimming pools. The past policy was, a fee of $ 25 plus the amount of water used, would be charged to the resident, and the city would fill the pool. Earlier in the spring staff filled a pool and • it took 2.5 hours just to fill the pool. We will request that residents fill their pools earlier in the spring, so they are ready for use in the summer months. This will be posted in the following news letters. If anyone receives any questions or has comments on this matter, please direct them to me. On Tuesday, July 5, 1994 staff repaired a water service on Spring Lake Road. This leak appeared to be a water main break at first, but after excavation was discovered to be a service leak. Letters were sent to 35 residents in the city who participated in the lead and copper testing last year, to request them to participate again this year. Since the city passed for two consecutive testing periods, our number of test sites was reduced from 60 to 35. If anyone did not receive a letter this year that did in previous years, this is the reason. If anyone should receive any questions from residents on this matter, please forward them to me. Larry has returned all rested from his vacation. Bill Hanson is on vacation for two weeks, and Wally leaves on monday for part of his vacation. An inventory of street patching was completed this week, data will be tabulated and advertisement will be sent out by the first part of next week. It will take 10 days to advertise, then staff will review the bids, check insurance and bid bonds and then award the bid. Staff expects to request council approval of the bid at the July 25, 1994 regular council meeting. The Public Works Dept. has a new temporary secretary on board, her name is Vanessa Smith. We are all happy to have her with us. I think she has probably met many of you, if not please introduce yourself the next time you see her. She even likes it here!!! Mike COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT WOLF AND ASSOCIATES Staff contacted John Purves of Wolf and Associates and scheduled a meeting with representatives of the Townsedge Manufactured Home Park to discuss the issue of locating an emergency access to the Park through the Wolf property. Mr. Purves said that Wolf and Associates is very willing to work with both the City and Townsedge to make sure that a second access is provided. Additionally, Staff informed Mr. Purves that the use of the former water tower site adjacent to the Wolf property was discussed by the Council. Staff will be conferring with the City Attorney on the possibilities of leasing a portion of the site to Wolf. MWCC BLAINE INTERCEPTOR The Metropolitan Waste Control Commission has begun dewatering in the area North of Hillview Road and West of Quincy Street in anticipation of beginning work on that stretch of the Blaine Interceptor.

(attach supplement sheets as necessary.) T TIN1TM Ally; The electrical circuit boxes are located on telephone poles outdoors at . Hillview and Lambert Parks.. Both electrical boxes hold circuit breakers that service the outdoor rink lights and the indoor park building lights and heaters. The boxes hold enough power to electrocute a person should the electrical boxes be vandalized or misused. For safety reasons, the electrical boxes need to be brought inside the park buildings so that the electrical circuit breakers can be secured and so that the box can be locked inside the park buildings for added security. Other repairs and electrical additions need to be made at Lambert Park to re-route conduit that is located on the outside of the building and change the electrical lines from the far .park pole. In addition, the electrical , power and box for the pitching machine at Hillview Park will be improved for safety. Lots of little details such as putting new electrical boxes and mounts in the buildings, new wiring, trenching, (going under concrete pads) , etc. are included in this project. Bacon Electric has been working on the project with Steve Dazenski. The updated cost is $5, 955 . It is requested that contingency funds be transferred to the Parks Maintenance and Repair Program to provide for the immediate repair of the electrical systems at Lambert and Hillview Parks to provide a more secure electrical system. Mary Saario , I ' red • Parks, Recreation and Forestry RECOMMENDATION: To approve the transfer of $5,955 in contingency funds to Parks Maintenance and Repair Program (100-4360-160- 000 for the provision of a more secure placement of the electrical circuit boxes inside the buildings at both Lambert and Hillview Parks and to perform repairs to the circuit breaker electrical boxes.

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 p eliminary 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 thot 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. Mr. Mike Ulrich June 6, 1994 Page 4 Method of Compensation For completion of the ordinance and permit program for the City of Mounds View as identified in the Scope of Work, we propose you compensate us on a hourly basis plus reimbursable expenses as outline in our Letter of Agreement dated June 10, 1991. We will complete the project in four separate phases. We will begin each phase upon written or verbal authorization from the City. We agree that the cost for Tasks 1, 2 and 3 will not exceed the amount given in Table 1 below without a Supplemental Agreement to adjust the scope of work and/or cost. Task 4 is a preliminary cost estimate which will need to be adjusted based on the permit program the City wishes to develop. The total project cost is estimated to be 58,300. Table 1. Summary of Project Costs Task Cost Task 1 - Final Ordinances S 300 Task 2 - LWMP amendments 51,900 Task 3 - Permit Program: 53,100 Task 4 - Permit Forms and Information Package 53,000 Total Project Costs $8,300 Client Responsibilities To complete the above referenced document, the City will need to: 4. For Task 1: Provide SEH with a schedule which outlines when the ordinances will be introduced by the Council to the public. Submit the ordinance revisions to the Council for adoption in the existing City code. Review the ordinance revisions with the City Attorney. For Task 2: Review the changes to the LWIVIP (Step 2 in the amendment process outlined in the LWMP, Staff Review of the Amendment). Determine where the official copies of the LWMP are located. Mr. Mike UIrich June 6, 1994 Page Determine the Council work session at which the information will be provided to the Council. For Task 3: Review the preliminary permit program developed by SEH. Meet with SEH to determine what type of permit program the City wishes to develop. Determine the staff time and cost to administer the permit program. Prepare a staff report on the feasibility of the City being the LGU arrd permittee for water resources projects within the;City. For Task 4: Review the final permit package to be given to individuals with project that require permitting. Schedule We will complete Task 1 based on a schedule developed by the City. Task 2 will begin as soon as you authorize us to begin. The review of the plan should take two weeks. If this letter agreement is approved by June 3, 1994 the revision will be ready for the June 20, 1994 work session. We should be able to assist the City in preparation of a report to be on the feasibility of being the permitting authority by the end of June. As soon as we receive your authorization to proceed, we will begin the project. If you have any questions or wish to make modifications to the agreement, please call me at 490-2026. Sincerely, Short Elliott Hendrickson Inc. // Z.-("" / Rocky J. Keehn, P.E. Project Manager, Water Resources Department tlo c: Samatha Orduno, City of Mounds View Steve Campbell, SEH Mark Lobermeier, SEH The electrical circuit boxes are located on telephone poles outdoors at Hillview and Lambert Parks. Both electrical boxes hold circuit breakers that service the outdoor rink lights and the indoor park building lights and heaters. The boxes hold enough power to electrocute a person should the electrical boxes be vandalized or misused. For safety reasons, the electrical boxes need to be brought inside the park buildings so that the electrical circuit breakers can be secured and so that the box can be locked inside the park buildings for added security. Other repairs need to be made at Lambert Park to re-route conduit that is located on the outside of the building. Bacon Electric has been working on the estimate for this project with Steve Dazenski. The estimated cost is $ It is requested that contingency funds be transferred to the Parks Maintenance and Repair Program to provide for the immediate repair of the electrical systems at Lambert and Hillview Parks to provide a more secure electrical system. Recommendation: To approve the transfer of $ in contingency funds to Parks Maintenance and Repair Program (100- 4360-160-000 for the provision of a more secure placement of the electrical circuit boxes inside the buildings at both Lambert and Hillview Parks and to perform repairs to the circuit breaker electrical boxes. 1 tvrtr 1 "THIS IS IT" PARKS, RECREATION & FORESTRY WEEK OF JULY 5TH, 1994 PARKS: * The sprinkling system at Silver View Park has been repaired. A concrete floor has been poured in the manhole which houses the electrical panel and the pumps. A sump pump was installed last summer and the final touches have been completed on this system. It looks like the grass is responding to the water. * Mowing, brush removal at Silver View Park and chemical week control has been going on all week. * Steve and Jeff have been tying down the backstops at various park softball/baseball fields. * There is a shortage of woodchips around town - we are waiting for a delivery so that we can pursue the woodchipping of the path near the Scotland Green area and the disc golf areas at Silver View Park. RECREATION: * Sixty six children signed up for the trip to Sports Spree on Friday, July 8 . We changed the trip from Cedar Lake Farm to Sports Spree because of the weather predictions for Friday. The children all love Sports Spree (our foul weather alternate trip) . * The second session of swimming has commenced. Last week the pool was closed for one day due to chemical imbalance. This makes for a hectic day in the office trying to notify everyone of the cancellation. * Mary was off last week on a trip to Wisconsin Dells, Sharie is off a few days this week spending "quality time" with son #2, Chad, who is in the Midwest while on tour of the nation with the Madison Scouts, a prestigious drum & bugle corps. * Festival plans are set. A big centerfold publicity page was in the New Brighton Bulletin this week. It' s a great piece! * Be sure to reserve your tickets for "Oliver" . * Lakeside Park had another bout of Swimmer' s Itch - it is the worst year that I can remember for this problem. Other lakes are having problems too, large lakes that you won't think would have the problem ie. Lake Bemidji. It is unfortunate since the summer has been so hot and everyone is anxious to be swimming. Lakeside is such a nice beach! This is the 3-4 time that the beach is being treated this year alone. Each treatment is approximately $200 - we budget for 2 treatments each year. As you can tell, we are over budget already in the number of treatments and the summer is only 1/2 through. FORESTRY: * Rick has indicated that it is a very bad year in the City of Mounds View for Dutch Elm disease. He is unsure of the reason why it is so prevalent this summer. * Rick has continued to work on the Long Lake Road tree replacement project funded with State Aid monies. * The trees being planted as part of the Small Business Grant have been planted at Greenfield, Lambert, Silver View and City Hall. As we receive the final billing we will reconcile the City's responsibilities for the grant match and then with the remaining monies will purchase trees to plant at Oakwood Park near the bleacher areas and City Hall ballfield bleacher areas. * At this time last week their was a concern regarding the dryness of the turf, trees and bushes. However, weekend rains have provided relief. Hopefully intermittent rains will continue to provide the water needed.
