For the Week of August 22 - August 26, 1994 ADMINISTRATION Streetlight The request for the installation of the streetlight at the intersection of Airport Drive and County Road J will be fulfilled by the end of August. According to the electrician, NSP and the State, everything is scheduled for completion by 8/31/94. Customer Service Training Georgine Madden, the customer service trainer, spent the morning on Friday, August 19, 1994 talking to employees about their jobs and what services they deliver. She is collecting information to be able to tailor her training to our specific needs. Fire Department On August 10, I attended a budget meeting with the Fire Department and the Cities of Blaine and Spring Lake Park. The Fire Department presented their proposed capital budget. They have projected capital expenditures out to the year 2002. Although these numbers are large, they did a good job of planning for their future needs. 7618 Edgewood Drive The City Attorney called on August 15 to inform us that the abatement proceedings for this property will be held on September 8, 1994 at the Ramsey County Courthouse. A staff member will be present for this. Tim C. Economic Development MNDOT Changes Mounds View Sign • I'm sure you are all aware of the "changing of the sign". We received great coverage from Channel 4, St. Paul Pioneer Press, The Bulletin and The Focus. Several people mentioned something to me at meetings that week. The word is out! Also, I received a call from a resident who lives on Mounds View Drive. She read the article in the St. Paul Pioneer Press and wondered if Mounds View Drive should be spelled with two words rather than one as it states on the street signs. After her call the signs were changed to two words. Silver Lake Point Apartments • I spoke with Jim O'Meara upon his return from vacation regarding MSP's request to change the drop dead date. He found no problem with this and felt comfortable that this is a request from the lender rather than a effort to delay the project. It is in MSP's interest to finish the project as soon as possible to be able to begin collecting the tax increment. Jim has prepared a one page amendment to the development agreement noting the change from December 31, 1995 to June 30, 1996. (attached) He did not change the dates of the EDA note to allow the following. Project Complete December 31, 1995 Property on Tax Rolls 1996 Payment of Tax Increment 1997 or Project Complete 1996 Property of Tax Rolls 1997 No Tax Increment Collected 1997 Payment of Tax Increment 1998 Marketing • The Mounds View Community Profile went to print last week. I should see a proof this week and the final product to be delivered the first week of September. Outreach • I attended the League of Minnesota Cities Economic Development and Workers' Compensation Policy Committee meetings all day on 8/9. There will be two more Economic Development meetings and one more Workers' Compensation meeting. The main focus for the Economic Development Committee is tax increment financing, tax abatement and other financing assistant tools for the attraction and retention of jobs. Workers° Compensation is a very complicated issue and the committee will probably make a broiler plate recommendation that the cost needs to become more competitive without losing the benefits of the workers compensation system. • I also attended the first meeting of the Ramsey County Strategic Planning session for economic development. The committee will meet three times to develop a vision statement and five critical issues. • I attended the Suburban Chamber of Commerce breakfast meeting at Perkins. The big talk that day was the change of Mounds View's sign and yes we were served food in a timely manner. • I attended the North Metro Business Retention and Development monthly work group meeting made up of the economic development directors of each participating city. It is a great forum to exchange ideas and learn what issues are affecting other surrounding cities. Mounds View was included in some of the summary data but with only a handful of companies so it was not effective. Next month's data should be more meaningful. Local Company Meetings 1 . Liberty Check - very happy being in Mounds View. The location and exposure is great for their corporate headquarters. They have expanded across the street with a new division and may expand that facility further. They possibly would like to put a second story on their building. I talked to Paul and sent them the zoning requirements for height of buildings. 2. Garment Graphics - good meeting with Neil Hamlin. They are at capacity in their location and will be expanding in the next two years out of Mounds View due to site restrictions and Ramsey County taxes. They need 12-16 acres which is not available anywhere in Mounds View. They are seriously looking in Blaine. Neil was very complimentary on the Police Department's services and expressed dissatisfaction with the franchise fee process but overall expressed satisfied being in Mounds View. 3. Best Steak House - generally very happy with his business in Mounds View. Would be interested in looking into a liquor license but feels it is too costly. 4. Minnesota Fabrics - not too pleased with Ed Paster. Has been requesting that they change their entry sign for two years. She feels it is out of date. Would like more support from the local schools for buying within the community. 5. Simons Sport Shop - would like to see more commercial development on highway 10 and more stop lights. Feels the City is too restrictive on businesses. 6. Midway Industrial Supply - in Mounds View since 1978. They have room to expand if needed. Was complementary on the City services especially the police dept. Their only concern was the intersection of Hwy 8 and 10. There has been several other meeting which I could not attend but the commission keeps me posted if there is an issue that needs immediate attention. So far I think the program is having a great impact. Retention • I have attached a letter from Minn. Trade & Economic Development regarding the grant application for Wolf & Associates. Needless to say I was not happy to hear that all the funds are exhausted before they were even appropriated. will keep trying to find out what the trick is to getting these funds awareded. Samantha is having a great time in California. We all miss her and can't wait until she is back taking care of the every day activities at City Hall! Cathy ( PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY • PARKS: 1 . Next week is the last week that the summer seasonals will be with us. Back to school they go. We have really appreciated all their hard work in the parks this summer. Thanks to: Bill Urbanski - will put on the dress shirt and tie and resume teaching history at Forest Lake High School. Bill Norman - will return to St. Cloud State University and will studying "hard". Brad Engen - will also return to St. Cloud State University and will also be studying with zest. Mike Quick - will be continuing his computer studies at St. Cloud / Anoka Ramsey wherever he can find the right classes for his major. They are a great crew and we really miss them when they leave. 2. Jim Hess and I attended a meeting at MN DOT regarding a requirement for the pedestrian bridge project - filing a historical preservation inquiry. This is the first of many requirements that we will need to complete with this project. It was fun to hear about all the other projects going on around the state. RECREATION: 1 . Fall recreation programs are in the homes - we have had many registrations by telephone, mail and in-person. Additional advertisements via school flyers will be provided once school is in session. 2. Fall Soccer Leagues have begun. The coaches met for the mandatory coaches clinic last Thursday. We have a huge increase of teams this year - relative to the World Cup Games this summer which sparks youth interest. 3. Adult Fall Softball has also seen an increase in numbers is in the second week of games. 4. The Regional Sr. Center Task Force meets Wednesday evening (August 24) too late for a report for this week's edition of "This Is It". 5. The Parks and Recreation Commission meets Thursday evening, (August 25). 6. I am a member of the Parks, Trails and Open Space team for Ramsey County Strategic Planning - our first meeting was held last Tuesday. One resident from Mounds View has volunteered to be on the committee - her name is Mrs. Moriarity. Approximately 25 people are on the committee with a pretty even split between St. Paul and Suburban representation. GOLF COURSE: 1 . The Golf Course Task Force met at the golf course last Thursday for observation of the work being done and also to decide on a logo for "The Bridges". 2. The review of the Maintenance Building was preformed last week with a small 3 item punch list resulting. The builders did a very good job in the construction of the Maintenance Building. FORESTRY: 1 . Rick took a much needed vacation last week. We have not had a chance to catch up on activities, but I did see the crew out inspecting newly planted trees last Thursday. Some trees have died and need to be replaced. 2. The 40 trees for the golf course will be planted soon (planted by the Tree Trust) as reimbursement for the interceptor project which required removal of trees on the golf course site. The new trees will be on much greater quality and diversity - which is a benefit to the City. 3. Rick met with an official from Washington D.C. who is out inspecting projects completed with the Small Business Tree Grants. Rick gave him a tour of the plantings that have been completed with the grant monies that we received. Mary S. FINANCE • Charles Clysdale, our insurance agent, delivered our insurance policies this week. • Kitty Hickok is busy converting fixed asset data to our new fixed asset software system. • Dorothy Peterson is on vacation this week. She will return August 29. • Don Brager will be on vacation August 29 - September 3. Don POLICE * A couple weeks ago, a burglary occurred in the 5000 block of Bona Road. A neighbor wrote down the license number of the vehicle used. Two suspects were identified, some property was recovered. We are taking the case to the County Attorney for warrants to be issued. * Kathy Bednar is the City's coordinator for the annual United Way Drive. Kathy will be distributing info to the City employees soon. * August is always a busy vacation month. Eight patrol officers have taken time off. Also, the Chief, Pat, Larry and Kathy have taken a few days here and there. * A new feature on your phone ---- if you receive a harassing or obscene call, you hang up and dial *57, the call is automatically traced. A couple of residents have used this feature and as a result, a suspect was identified. * Met with the Association for Nonsmokers-Minnesota. As a result, I will be discussing with Council a tobacco ordinance. This ordinance would license tobacco sellers and provide for periodical compliance checks. Hopefully, I'll have something put together for the October work session. * We have a new Reserve Officer, Jason Meron, (Mounds View resident). Jason started with the Department on August 19, 1994. Tim R. PUBLIC WORKS * The patching contract is in it's third week and the crews are working in the north half of the city. They have removed the driveways at the treatment plants and will repave them along with the walkways in the next couple of weeks. Staff experienced some minor performance inadequacies, but they have been addressed and corrected. * The slurry sealing was completed on selected streets last week. Staff was very impressed with the product and performance of the company. Minor disruptions in traffic occurred, mainly in residential areas where residents were notified that the street would be closed for the day. Staff has not received any comments on this method thus far, so we plan to conduct a random survey of some of the residents. * Tracy is returning to work the 1st of September on a part time basis. Her hours will be from 11 :30 to 3:00. As of October 1, 1994 she will be back to full time. Needless to say, we're all looking forward to having her back. I'm sure she feels the same!!! * Pleasantview Drive construction is progressing at a steady pace. The weather has cooperated appropriately. Curb and gutter should be poured yet this week. Any questions on this project should be directed to Jim Hess, or myself. * Subgrade excavation was performed on the police parking lot last week, and electricity was roughed in for the lights and outlets. As of this writing it is not known when the curb and gutter will be poured, hopefully yet this week. After the concrete work in completed, staff will begin to reconstruct the ballfield to the north of the lot. * The roof work on the treatment plants, well 4, and flashing work has been completed. Tuckpointing continues to progress on the buildings. Mike CiumimminimCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT WOLF AND ASSOCIATES Staff will be meeting with representatives of Wolf and Associates and residents of the Townsedge Terrace Manufactured Home Park this week to discuss the perceived problems the residents are experiencing with excessive noise generated at the Wolf site. Within the past two weeks, a citation for excessive noise has been issued to Wolf and they would like to meet with all parties involved to try and reach an agreement on what noise levels are acceptable to the residents. Staff will keep the Council posted on the results of that meeting. CROUSE CARTAGE COMPANY On August 18, I was made aware of site improvements which were being done at 2169 Mustang Drive. The Crouse Cartage Company, an Iowa-based trucking firm, had purchased the property and begun grading for purposes of expanding the parking area on the site. After checking the address files to determine whether or not a permit had been issued for the work (it had not been), Rick Jarson and I went to the site and informed the on-site construction manager that no permits for the project had been issued and work could not continue until such permits were secured. The on-site manager said that he would have a representative of the company contact City Staff the next day. On Friday the 19th, I received a call from Larry Crouse, President of Crouse Cartage. Mr. Crouse stated that representatives of his company had contacted the Building Inspector and that no permits were necessary for the project. I told Mr. Crouse that I would check with the Building Inspector to see if he had spoken with anyone regarding the project. I checked with Rick Jarson and found out that the only conversations he had with the representatives of Crouse Cartage dealt with interior renovations to the building; Therefore, he did not make them aware of the Planning process. I went on to tell Mr. Crouse that the project was subject to a City review process at both the Planning Commission and City Council levels. I explained the reasons for the review and informed him that City Staff would do everything possible to expedite the process. Needless to say, Mr. Crouse is upset that the process is going to take away valuable building time. However, I feel City Staff was more than reasonable in moving the process ahead by one month - especially since the project was started without any permits and Staff received plans just this past week.

Saarion reported there 21 is no park in that area at this time and that there is a problem in that 22 section with busy roads. Saarion showed overheads which demonstrated 23 some of the problems that the Commission has faced in locating a park in 24 that section. Saarion stated that the Park and Recreation staff was 25 given the direction to look into purchasing land from residents for park 26 land. Saarion stated that there was land available in that section and 27 that an outdoor recreation grant opportunity became available for park 28 acquisition and park development. Saarion stated that this would be an 29 opportunity to obtain the land for a park. Saarion stated that staff had 30 begun working on the grant application. Saarion explained on the on 31 overheads where the park would be located in the section and the layout 32 of the proposed park. 33 34 Saarion stated that she had received phone calls regarding parking on the 35 roads. Saarion stated that she responded to the callers that there would 36 be ample parking except perhaps when there would be a sports event. 37 38 Saarion stated that neighborhood parks are designed specifically for 39 children. Ballfields are small, playground equipment is for three 40 different classifications of age groups and activities hosted there would 41 be for children. The building could be used for evening meetings by 42 groups and organizations and the building would handicapped accessible. 43 Saarion explained that the grant is a 50/50 matching grant phased over 44 three years. Saarion stated that the grant is situated for cities such 45 as the City of Mounds View. Saarion stated that this would be a unique 46 park to Mounds View and this park would be the first park completed in 47 one project. All other parks have been completed in bits and pieces. 48 49 Saarion stated that the area of the southwest section has a remarkably 50 reduced number of participants in recreational activities. Saarion 51 stated that there are no ballfields in that area and that the closest 52 playground equipment is Woodcrest or Sunnyside School but this is 53 difficult for some residents because of the busy roads that have to be 54 crossed to arrive at these destinations. U . APPROVED 9' 1 Mounds View City Council Page Nine 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 5 6 Saarion reported the costs of the park over the next three years. 7 Saarion stated that the Park and Recreation Commissioners are in the 8 audience to answer questions, if necessary. 9 10 Mayor Linke stated that this park development is dependent upon the 11 receipt of the grant. 12 13 Councilmember Trude stated that when she campaigned in that area it was 14 stated to her by many people that they felt they were in a neglected part 15 of the City because they didn't have the services that residents had in 16 the other part of the City. Trude stated that neighborhood parks bring 17 people together and cars are rarely there. Trude states that she sees 18 bikes and strollers, she sees no problems with noise and that it is an 19 attraction to the neighborhood. Trude stated that she took a survey of 20 the parking near Groveland Park when a game was being played and there 21 was a car for each person on both teams, about 25 total. Trude stated 22 that there is more than enough room for parking in that area. Trude 23 stated that for six to eight weeks in the summer there may be a parking 24 problem or cars parking on the street. Trude stated the City had 25 received petitions to use park buildings this year. Trude stated that 26 parks increase the values of homes in the area. 27 28 Councilmember Wuori stated that the Planning Commission has identified 29 the southwest corner of the City as lacking in parks and in their five 30 year use plan it was identified that the southwest corner of the City is 31 lacking. 32 33 Councilmember Trude stated that if it wasn't developed as a park land it 34 could be developed as approximately 20 homes. Trude stated that there 35 will be about 17 homes in a area of a cul-de-sac off Spring Lake Road and 36 residents are somewhat upset because it is all wild land now. Trude 37 stated that lots in the City are priced at about $25, 000 at this time. 38 39 Steve Larson, 2917 County Road H, stated that he disagreed about the way 40 the Planning Commission looked at this property. Larson indicated that 41 there are parks located a relatively short distance from where this park 42 is proposed. Mr. Larson identified those parks by presenting them on an 43 overhead. Mr. Larson stated that there are only about 65 homes to be 44 serviced by this park and half of those homes are lived in by retired 45 people. Mr. Larson stated that the area adjacent to the proposed park 46 could be a good place for a predator type of person because of the tall 47 grasses and trees. Mr. Larson stated that there is also an apartment 48 complex nearby and those persons are not fully employed and there is 49 already a problem in that area with vandalism. 50 51 Mr. Larson stated that he would be concerned about the safety of his 52 children. Mr. Larson stated that also the money shouldn't be spent on a 53 park. Mr. Larson also asked how many requests from residents in that 54 area who wanted a park in that area. UNAPPROVED 1 Mounds View City Council Page Ten 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 Councilmember Trude stated that when she campaigned that area many of 5 the residents in that area had brought it to her attention. 6 7 Mr. Larson stated that he has a petition that contains 50 names that 8 are opposed to this park development. 9 10 Mr. Larson asked what time of day are the City parks used. 11 12 Mayor Linke stated that there are people playing tennis at 10: 00 p.m. and 13 as early in the morning as 7 : 00 a.m. Linke stated that he sees children 14 and parents in the park from 10: 00 a.m. until 7: 00 or 8: 00 p.m. Linke 15 stated that the park would be used by mothers and children without having 16 to cross a busy street. 17 18 Mr. Larson stated that he checked to see if the parks were used at 2 : 00 19 p.m. in the afternoon and they weren't being used and he felt that the 20 tax dollars should not be used to pay for a park whether it is a grant or 21 not because it all comes out of the taxpayer's pockets. Mr. Larson 22 stated he can't afford the City's expenditures anymore. Mr. Larson 23 stated that he would like to see his property value down and he doesn't 24 want to pay any more money in taxes. 25 26 Cindy Blood, 7034 Pleasantview Drive, stated that the field for Onan 27 and Medtronic is right behind her house. Ms. Blood does not want the 28 park because she has five children and does home day care and does not 29 believe that parks are safe places. Ms. Blood stated that her children 30 are not involved in the parks programs. Blood is concerned about 31 undesirable people congregating in the park and states that she 32 already feels that there are problems in that area. Blood stated that 33 there are very few children in that area. 34 35 Councilmember Wuori stated that Mr. Larson stated there are parks 36 close in proximity and Mounds View children could go to those parks 37 but the park in Mounds View would draw undesirable children. Wuori 38 found this very confusing. 39 40 Councilmember Trude stated that most children that use the parks use 41 them with their parents. 42 43 Corrine Diamond, Woodale Drive, stated that there is a train crossing 44 very close to the park area and to bring children into the park area, the 45 railroad would be a concern. Ms. Diamond asked how the area behind Onans 46 would be patrolled. Ms. Diamond asked if Mounds View was paying $25, 000 47 for each of the lots. 48 49 Mayor Linke stated that the price was arrived at by appraisals and that 50 is where the number came from for the land. 51 52 Councilmember Trude stated lot prices would be higher with water and 53 sewer hook-ups. 54 LINN:1:90WD 1 Mounds View City Council Page Eleven 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 Joan Sundwall, 6942 Pleasantview Drive, stated she does want a park 5 there. Sundwall stated that she used to walk to Woodcrest Park and 6 stated that Woodcrest is a long walk. Ms. Sundwall did day care and took 7 walks to the park and had to go across Silver Lake Road and down Silver 8 Lake Road. The walk was dangerous. Ms. Sundwall stated that she is not 9 overly concerned with traffic and she does believe that a park is needed 10 in this area. 11 12 Doug Blood, 7034 Pleasantview Drive, stated that the west side of the 13 park is all wooded and it would be a good place for a predator to hide. 14 If Onan would let the land be landscaped it would probably be all right. 15 He visits Sunnyside which is three minutes away. Opposed to park. 16 17 Jerry Blanski, 2933 Woodale Drive, stated his concerns about the safety 18 of the children, way to remote of an area for young children. Blanski 19 sited an experience his child had regarding a predator. Woodale Drive is 20 a dead end street. Blanski stated Woodale is a quiet street and a park 21 would create more traffic. Blanski has a park 3/10 of a mile from his 22 house, another 6/10 of a mile from his house and this one would be 2/10 23 of a mile from his house. Received notice one week ago. Saarion gave a 24 very good presentation but has had time to prepare her presentation, 25 however, the residents only had one week to make notes and counteract 26 this action. Blanski stated that a park is not needed in this area. 27 Blanski stated that the City has not made an adequate way for residents 28 to get to Silver View Park from Woodale. Has the City tried to build up 29 Woodcrest Park? Mr. Blanski took pictures of Woodcrest Park and said it 30 is a worthless park and stated that there is a drain pipe full of water. 31 32 Mayor Linke stated that is a Ramsey County ditch problem. 33 34 Blanski stated that when the City can show him that the City can 35 develop a park different than Woodcrest Park he may consider a park. 36 37 Mayor Linke invited Blanski to look at the other 38 neighborhood parks. 39 40 Judy Herbst, used to live across from a park, which was the park in 41 Fridley. Herbst stated she moved away from Fridley to get away from 42 the park activity and that is why she moved to Woodale. Herbst stated 43 her opposition to having a park in that area because of the quietness 44 of the neighborhood and the City should improve the existing parks or 45 build a bridge over Silver Lake Road for access to the other parks. 46 47 Brian Amundson, 3048 Woodale Drive, stated he is active in the community 48 and is interested in holding down costs. Mr. Amundson stated that most 49 people in attendance are not interested in a park in this area. 50 Amundson stated that he is concerned for the safety of the children and 51 costs to the City and was frustrated with the process that was used. 52 Amundson heard that the grant is in the process and possibly already 53 obtained. Amundson spoke to the owner of the property and he has been 54 maintained this property and has asked the City for a permit to do clean UNAPPROVET 1 Mounds View City Council Page Twelve 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 5 fill and has been frustrated with the type of fill that has been brought 6 into the property. The owner was not told how much he was going to be 7 paid for his property. Amundson stated that he looked at the sixteen 8 other parks and he stated that these parks have through streets next to 9 them where this park would not. Amundson stated that the Plan presented 10 to the community in Focus 2000 was accessibility to the parks and it was 11 the recommendation of the Focus 2000 to provide integrated access to the 12 parks. Knollwood Park could be made into a nature park with walkways 13 through it. Amundson asked that the City seriously consider whether or 14 not they are helping the community by adding this park and address the 15 situation of access to the parks. 16 17 Saarion stated that Mr. Belisle was approached when she heard that there 18 was a possibility that he may be interested in selling. Mr. Belisle was 19 asked if he would consider selling the property for park property and his 20 answer was yes, he would consider that. Saarion approached him again and 21 let him know that a grant was being prepared and the selling price would 22 be very much in the ball park. Appraisals were done by a professional 23 agency and they took several similar type lots in the Mounds View area 24 and outlining area. There are federal and state regulations regarding 25 those appraisals to be met. 26 27 Marlene Hanson, 3025 Woodale Drive, 38 year homeowner directly next 28 to Belisles and proposed park. Community in which they live are older 29 people and their children are raised. These people have mowed the lot 30 and they have a large garden. A fence would separate the homeowner's 31 land from the proposed park. In five years the park will be expanded and 32 that is not what the property owners want. Hanson stated that the park 33 is not needed and the neighborhood doesn't need the crime element. Hanson 34 stated that she had spoken with Mayor Linke and didn't feel that proper 35 notification was given. Ms. Hanson did not know until last Wednesday 36 what he would be paid for the lots and he is not happy with the price. 37 Hanson stated that the proposed park is a bad place for a park and that 38 she feels Mounds View will take the rest of the land behind their homes. 39 40 Ms. Hanson stated that she drove to Groveland Park and spoke to a lady 41 who did day care and had lived there a long time and that the lady stated 42 that the park used to be a little park and with it expanded to the larger 43 park there is noise at night, vandalism, nothing but a headache. 44 45 Mayor Linke stated that he was not sure what lady was talking about, but 46 did recall that the baseball field was reversed and that the kiddy park 47 was moved down 65 feet. Mayor Linke asked if her property was on the 48 proposed park land. Ms. Hanson stated that her garden is on the property 49 line and people in that area don't have little kids and don't want a park 50 in that area. Ms. Hanson stated that she hopes the Council will consider 51 the signatures on the petition. 52 53 Mayor Linke asked if he could send in the documentation for the grant and 54 if an agreement with Mr. Belisle were reached, then a commitment was 1 Mounds View City Council Page Thirteen 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 made. If Mr. Belisle decides at any time before an agreement were 5 reached, it's a moot point. At the present time the City has a willing 6 seller and a willing buyer at this time. 7 8 Ms. Hanson stated that the Council does not have any right putting a park 9 in an area where the residents don't want one. 10 11 Mayor Linke stated he is 110% in wanting to have a park in that area. 12 Mayor Linke stated that the City's philosophy is not to expand the park 13 but to build small neighborhood parks. 14 15 Ms. Hanson stated that Silver View Park is beautiful but it is not 16 accessible. 17 18 Ms. Hanson asked the Council to consider their feelings. Ms. Hanson 19 asked for a show of hands of those who disagreed with a park being put in 20 at that location. 21 22 Councilmember Trude asked the size of Hanson's lot. Mr. Belisle owns the 23 park directly west of Ms. Hanson's property. 24 25 Mayor Linke stated that Mr. Belisle's property is between Hanson's land 26 and the park. 27 28 Roy Smith, 3016 Woodale Drive, stated that once his family and 29 surrounding families are raised and there was no park and now they want 30 to put a park in. 31 32 Mayor Linke explained that the property was not available at that time. 33 34 Mr. Smith stated he is opposed to the park because of noise. 35 36 Mayor Linke stated that he lives near a big park in the City and does 37 not see the noise problem. 38 39 Mr. Smith stated he now can't retire there because of the park. 40 41 Mayor Linke asked if Mr. Smith wanted a park when he was raising his kids 42 but Mr. Smith stated he had a big yard and didn't need a park. 43 44 Mr. Larson stated again that the residents were opposed to the park. 45 46 Mayor Linke stated that the Council is looking at the first step which 47 is getting the grant. 48 49 Mr. Larson stated that it is almost like the budget hearing where this 50 is a done deal. Mr. Larson stated it can be stopped now and what 51 the people are saying is that we appreciate your telling us about 52 the park but we don't want the park. Mr. Larson stated that the park 53 is not needed. 54 UNAPPROVED 1 Mounds View City Council Page Fourteen 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 5 Gene Erickson, 2948 Woodale Drive, stated that his concerns are that 6 the Council should be responsible and good stewards of City taxpayer's 7 tax dollars and wondered if that was a good use. Has attended budget 8 hearings and now talking about $25, 000 or $50, 000 and the other grant 9 money is coming out of the other pocket. Facility not needed and area 10 doesn't want it. 11 12 Diamond has a fifth grader and has never had a problem accessing any 13 of the parks. What happened to ice skating park at Woodcrest? Diamond 14 stated that he is involved in T-ball and baseball and has no problem 15 going to the other parks. 16 17 Amundson stated he has been involved in scouting for 8 years and has 18 never had den leaders state that they needed access for a place to hold 19 their meetings. Not interested in 40 additional parking spaces across 20 from his driveway which is a dead end and has had to call the police to 21 have them patrol that area and he stated that he told Councilmember Trude 22 about lighting and about access to other parks. Asked that something be 23 done about pathways and sidewalks to the other parks. 24 25 Councilmember Trude asked how other park land became available in the 26 City. 27 28 Saarion reported that many of the parks were acquired through tax 29 forfeiture and the only park purchased outright was Silver View Park. 30 31 Saarion gave the background on how the other parks in Mounds View were 32 acquired. Many corrections had to be made before projects were completed 33 in these parks . 34 35 Councilmember Trude stated that two parcels from Mr. Belisle would border 36 the park and one homeowner on County Road H2 . 37 38 Mayor Linke stated that there is part of a ditch that is also park 39 land. Saarion explained that Knollwood Park is undevelopable land. 40 Saarion explained that the southern part of the City has no ballfields 41 for use and that Mounds View does not get permission to use other 42 community athletic facilities for youth. Saarion stated that the parks 43 are used in the summer from 9: 00 a.m. until 3 : 30 from June to July with 44 tennis lessons and baseball leagues, rollerblade leagues, volleyball 45 leagues and other programs developed for children, 100 children 46 bussed to Lakeside Park for safety camp, 60 teams of youth 8 ball, T ball 47 and softball, skating programs in the winter and building requests can't 48 be handled. 49 50 Requests for use never quit and people are turned down on a daily 51 basis. This use does not count the people that just drop by and daycare 52 providers that have outings. Parks are used in Mounds View. Saarion 53 stated that one thing that showed in all surveys done, is that Mounds 54 View's park use is higher than in an average suburban community. 4k twi APPRITED 4 . 1 Mounds View City Council Page Fifteen 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 5 6 Two scout groups housed out of Pinewood couldn't find a date or time 7 to use buildings. Requests coming in already for use of space at 8 Random. 9 10 Gary Mann, 3009 Woodale Drive, stated major concern is in very secluded 11 dead end area and the concern is traffic in the neighborhood. Mr. Mann 12 asked about the area west of the proposed property if it is considered by 13 the federal government as one of the hazardous waste sites is the pole 14 yard and developing land for kids to use and abutting it to a hazardous 15 waste area. Mr. Mann recalled that it is one of the top ten hazardous 16 waste areas. Mann stated that a park is not good useage for this type of 17 land. 18 19 Mayor Linke stated that the land in question is not part of that area. 20 The land affected is in Fridley and is a distance from that site. 21 22 Mr. Mann the playground will not be built on the land but right up to it 23 and it should be a concern that area residents were told not to use the 24 wells because of the contamination from that yard. 25 26 Councilmember Trude asked if a structure were to be built would there 27 be soil borings. Mayor Linke said soil borings would be done. 28 29 Mr. Mann stated that the property is virtually enclosed by woods. 30 Mr. Mann stated that there has never been a comment by anyone who 31 said that it should be rethought out. Would like to hear the 32 Council say it would rethink this situation. 33 34 Mayor Linke stated that there is a time constraint to work with 35 regarding the grant. 36 37 Doris Olson, 7200 Knollwood, stated that she has the only through 38 yard from Knollwood to Woodale to H. Ms. Olson is opposed to the 39 development of a park in that area. Ms. Olson stated that everyone in 40 the Woodale area of the proposed park is retired. There are 41 approximately five children who would be using the park from that area. 42 43 Larry Beach, 6951 Knollwood Drive, parked cars near Onan and Medtronic 44 and the people who park on the street will park in the park and walk 45 to work. 46 47 Pete Hansen, 7075 Knollwood, stated his concern is that of traffic flow 48 on Knollwood and Pleasantview and if he could get to the park on the 49 other side of Silver Lake Road he would use that park. People that live 50 near the proposed park would have to deal with people coming in to use 51 the park. 52 53 54 UNAPPROVED 1 Mounds View City Council Page Sixteen 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 Jerry Blanski talked to a person directly across from Woodcrest Park 5 and wondered why Woodcrest Park was not developed and brought up to 6 par. Volleyball park not used. The residents were told that there was no 7 money to do so. Is there grant money available to do so? 8 9 Trude stated the grant applied for is a park development grant. 10 11 Dan Lindberg, 7188 Knollwood stated he was concerned about safety. 12 Lindberg stated that last year he kicked out a squatter who had set up 13 camp in his backyard. 14 15 Mayor Linke closed the public hearing. 16 17 MOTION/SECOND: Wuori/Blanchard to Adopt Resolution No. 4600 Approving 18 the Outdoor Recreation Grant Proposal for Park Acquisition and 19 Development 20 21 Councilmember Trude stated this had to be discussed and was totally 22 shocked about the number of people against a park. Trude stated that 23 a City could control a park but not another's private property. 24 Trude stated that one-third of the owners of the property in the area 25 are in attendance and are opposed to the park. Trude stated that she 26 visits the parks to meet other families. Trude stated if the neighbor- 27 hood doesn't want it the money shouldn't be spent there. The Council 28 needs to discuss and deliberate on this item. 29 30 Councilmember Blanchard stated that these people in the area are opposed 31 to the park development and is wondering about the future of the park 32 in the City. There is no park in the southwest section. This item 33 has come up quickly as there are time constraints on the grant and if 34 the grant is not received the park development is a moot point and if 35 it is passed up at this time is the Council doing what is right for 36 the entire City of Mounds View. 37 38 Councilmember Wuori stated that the City Council is responsible for 39 serving the broad community. Children need something to do and 40 should be given good opportunities. Wuori stated that the Council 41 has the opportunity to share funding to provide something for the 42 community but it is hard to be told to be good stewards and not 43 provide something good for the community. 44 45 Councilmember Trude stated her concern for the homeowners of the 46 park land who would be impacted and those persons haven't spoke 47 for or against the park. 48 49 Mayor Linke stated that he normally looks for the NIMBY syndrome, 50 and a lot of what he has heard, is not in my backyard and it is okay to 51 have the park elsewhere but not by my property. Linke stated that he 52 normally takes the NIMBY situation and looks at what is going on for the 53 betterment of the entire community, however, this time he stated that he 54 will vote for the NIMBY'S and let them face the consequences. UNAPPROVED 1 Mounds View City Council Page Seventeen 2 Regular Meeting July 25, 1994 3 4 - 5 Linke stated he will go with what is being said realizing that 6 neighborhoods turnover and persons may buy a particular home because 7 there is a park nearby, but in this area there will be no park. 8 9 Councilmember Trude stated that in her area people take pride in the 10 parks and make them beautiful. People adopt the parks and call them 11 neighborhood parks and identify their neighborhoods with a park. In 12 Minneapolis people are drawn into the community by the parks situation. 13 Trude stated that this property could be made into a housing development 14 and this vacant land cannot be controlled if it isn't owned by you. 15 16 Councilmember Blanchard stated that she believes that this is an 17 opportunity that shouldn't be passed up for the entire community. 18 19 Councilmember Trude stated that she needs more discussion. 20 21 Councilmember Wuori stated that Trude reminded her well with 22 her comments on the problems that we are seeing today with the 23 kids. Mr. Frits made comments that there are a lot of good kids out 24 there and there are a lot of troubled kids out thee and putting in a park 25 and providing services to show them how to get along, act with others, 26 and provide programs for the future of the children in the community. 27 28 Councilmember Trude stated it is a neighborhood park and if the neighbor- 29 hood is not going to support it why put it in. Trude stated there is 30 a lot of turnover in that area. Most kids are in day care and the day 31 care kids are using the parks and the children that are home alone after 32 school. 33 34 Mayor Linke will vote against this resolution because of the NIMBY 35 situation but hopes that the resolution does pass. 36 37 Councilmember Trude stated that she concurs with Mayor Linke's 38 comments. 39 40 VOTE: 2 ayes 2 nays Motion Failed 41 42 Mayor Linke stated that he hopes those in that area will not use 43 the other parks. 44 45 46 COUNCIL BUSINESS: 47 48 There were no Consent Agenda items brought forward. 49 50 A.

MEMO TO: SAMANTHA ORDUNO, CITY ADMINISTRATOR (1°4 /24 FROM: MARY SAARION DATE: AUGUST 26, 1994 #nn ,14 SUBJECT: CABLE TV GRANT I received this information regarding a grant opportunity for Cable TV equipment sponsored by the Cable TV Commission from Jerry Skelly Sr. at the RSC meeting Wednesday, August 24 . Because this grant application requires a resolution from the City Council, we need to request the City Council to adopt the resolution that I have prepared during the August 29th City Council meeting. Jerry Skelly Jr. will work on the grant guts during the time between now and the due date - September 9, 1994. Jerry will be researching equipment for information communication to the public via Cable TV - interactive menu information system. I will be on vacation August 29 and ask that you present this to the City Council. It was not put on the Council agenda because Michelle recommended that you review the resolution first and if agreeable can present it as an agenda addition. Hope your vacation was a good one. I am without a babysitter this week (Stephanie left for college and my kids begin school Thursday) and therefore am spending a few days with them. I can be reached at home, 786-4438 and can come to the office - but , will have to drag the kids. Isn't that a threat!

STTMMARY; Two invoices have been received from the Ramsey County Department of Public Works, for the City's share of engineering and construction on the Long Lake Road project, totaling $832,894.56. Those invoices are for approximately 98% of the work. The majority of the work is reimbursable from the City's MSA construction allotment. There are some costs which are not reimbursable from MSA. At the time the contracts were let, the City had agreed to pay $35,569.31 for wider sidewalks from the Silver Lake Woods Project Fund and $75,884.00 for some local watermain and sewer work from the Water Improvements Fund,the Water Utility Fund, and the Sewer Utility Fund. Steve Campbell of SEH believes that the County erroneously charged the City$5,003.68 for construction engineering of the local utility portion of the project. SEH performed the construction engineering on that project and believes that the City should not pay the County for that. Payment of $827,890.88 to Ramsey County is recommended from the following funds: Amount invoiced $832,894.56 disputed engineering costs (5,003.68) Amount due $827,890.88 Funds charged to: Silver Lake Woods 33,718.94 Water Projects 56,646.00 Water Utility 5,700.00 Sewer Utility 200.00 MSA Construction 731,625.94 Total $827,890.88 RECOMMENDATION: Authorize payment to Ramsey County in the amount of$827,890.88 for the City's portion of the cost of the reconstruction of Long Lake Road.
