Comments
Planner Harrington summarized the 5. Consideration
request by Dynex Industries for a of Resolution
Planned Unit Development Amendment/ No. 411-95
Development Review. He noted that this Regarding PUD
item was discussed at the March 15th Amendment/
Agenda Session. Planner Harrington Development
informed the Planning Commission that Review, Dynex
this request meets all the criteria of Industries,
the Code. However, he noted two 4751 Mustang
outstanding issues that needed to be Circle,
addressed; the storm water drainage Planning Case
control and the issue of fire No. 407-95
suppression devices. Planner Harrington
noted that a copy of the plan had been
given to the City Engineer for his
review. He also reminded the Planning
Commission that the applicant's property
is serviced by a fire hydrant that is
connected to the City's water system but
that a portion of the property is

Regular Meeting Page 2
protected by hydrants located in the
City of New Brighton. He concluded by
saying that agreements need to be made
between the Cities of Mounds View and
New Brighton regarding this issue.
Planner Harrington distributed a copy of
proposed Resolution No. 411-95
recommending approval of the request.
Two contingencies in the proposed
resolution were cited -by Planner
Harrington; 1) a landscape plan and
planting schedule shall be submitted for
review and approval by the City
Forester; and 2) fire suppression
devices shall be provided on the
property per the direction of City
Staff. Planner Harrington clarified
that "fire suppression devices" was
terminology used by the Fire Department.

The applicant, Donald Hoseck, was 6. Consideration
present. of Resolution
No. 412-95
Planner Harrington reviewed the variance Regarding
request by Mr. Hoseck to construct a Variance
concrete driveway one foot from his Request of
property line where a five foot setback Donald Hoseck,
is required by Code. He informed the 7947 Greenfield
Planning Commission that this item was Avenue,
originally going to be discussed at the Planning Case
March agenda session, however, heavy No. 406-95
snow fall prohibited him from taking
measurements at the site.
The Planning Commission inquired as to
the pool of excess water that collects
at his driveway. Mr. Hoseck explained
that the pool will drain to the back of
his property behind the Park. He also
explained that the storm sewer in the
Mounds View Planning Commission April 5, 1995
Regular Meeting Page 3
area doesn't adequately handle the storm
water run off which causes it to pool up
in his driveway. Planner Harrington
informed the Commission that a storm
sewer was located under the City walkway
adjacent to the property. The Planning
Commission was concerned that if any
maintenance or repairs would need to be
made to the storm sewer, who would be
responsible for it. PlannerHarrington
responded by saying it would be the
City's responsibility to make the
repairs but that we would pay for
repairs of asphalt or class 5 gravel
only. He added that asphalt would be
easier to tear up than concrete. It was
concluded by the Planning Commission
that the issue of restoration and
liability of the City for repairs should
be included in the proposed resolution.
The applicant inquired about some
repairs that had been made to the storm
sewer last year. Planner Harrington
stated that he would check with the
Public Works Director regarding this
issue.
Planner Harrington informed the
applicant and the Commission that if
this request was approved, a grading
plan must be submitted to show where the
water is going. The Planning Commission
was concerned as to whether or not the
neighbor's property or the adjacent bike
path would be affected. Planner
Harrington stated that installing
concrete will not affect the neighbor's
property nor did he see a problem with
it affecting the bike path.
Planner Harrington asked the applicant
if he had a problem with his request
being brought back to the Planning
Commission on May 3rd. He indicated
that before the May 3rd meeting he and
Engineering Aide, Jim Hess, would shoot
some elevations.

by the City's Engineering Aide with no 413-95
problems to report. He explained that Regarding Zero
two resolutions have been prepared and Lot Line
cited the contingencies contained in the Subdivision
resolutions. He added that the Park Requests of
Dedication Fee would be approximately Larry Beach,
$100. 00 per property. 7540 and 7550
Silver Lake
The Planning Commission inquired as to Road, Planning
why construction of the twin home had Case Nos. 409-
begun. Planner Harrington explained 95 and 410-95
that the proposal met all building
requirements and the property was zoned
R-2 which is appropriate for a two
family structure. The only reason the
applicant is before the Planning
Commission is because he wants to sell
each side of the home owner occupied,
and therefore, a zero lot line
subdivision is required.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplemen. sheets as i•cessary.)
SUMMARY;
In the 1995 budget, staff requested funds for the purchase of flow
monitoring equipment in the Wastewater Budget . Staff has researched several
manufacture' s products and obtained quotes for this purchase. While staff
was accurate in the amount requested for this purchase ($5, 000) , additional
funds are required for the purchase of computer software to develop graphs
and reports .
Staff has been monitoring the computer lift station reports, noting
increases in pumping hours during rainy periods in areas of the city. In
light of the additional funds being required to purchase flow monitoring
equipment, and the fact that when inspections begin (televising of mains) ,
staff can utilize TV data to help determine areas of high infiltration,
staff requests to purchase inspection data software . This software will not
only help track infiltration, but will compile data related to the entire
condition of the sanitary sewer system. With this software, staff will be
able to merge the data into the GIS program and plot maps and graphs to
indicate areas in need of rehabilitation. Staff considers this purchase a
wiser investment of funds available .
Staff is requesting Council approval the purchase of inspection software
verses flow monitoring equipment for $2 , 400 . The 1995 budget allotment for
the flow monitoring equipment was $5, 000 .

SUMMARY;
At the May Work Session, the Council discussed the possibility of changing
the Agenda Meeting time from 7 : 00 to 6: 00 p.m. as a means of addressing the
lengthy Agenda Work Sessions. Staff was directed to prepare the necessary
documentation for the May 22 meeting.
Attached hereto is Ordinance No. 563 which would amend the City Code and
allow for Agenda Meeting times to be set by Council resolution rather than
ordinance.
Also changed (and only as a discussion point that can remain or be removed)
is the number of Councilmembers required to conduct business at an Agenda ;
Work Session if called to order. The previous ordinance called for all four
Councilmembers to be present. Due to the times that Councilmembers may have
emergencies, be on vacation or unable to attend the meeting, the Council
could call to order at an Agenda Work Session with three members.

Explanation/Summary_(attachsuppleme r, sheets as ecessary.)
SUMMARY;
The need for an equitable means of maintaining and reconstructing the
City' s infrastructure has become a necessity. Streets and sanitary sewer
mains are rapidly aging and are in need of reconstruction and
rehabilitation. The current fund account, Silver Lake Woods Fund, that has
been utilized for several years to perform preventative maintenance of the
streets is rapidly being depleted. In fact in 1996 approximately $112, 000
will remain available for maintenance. After next year these funds will be
extinguished, leaving no funding means for maintenance measures such as
cracksealing, patching, and sealcoating.
Wastewater employees Wally Mortenson and Larry Decheine presented
information to Council regarding to the deteriorating condition of the
City' s sanitary sewer system in March of 1995 . The City can no longer
continue to provide preventative maintenance, to the degree necessary, to
the aging system. Sewer mains will require extensive rehabilitation or '!!
reconstruction in the very near future.Staff and the City Council have been
discussing the need for an equitable means for the reconstruction or
improvement of the City' s infrastructure, for the past year and a half .
While the current charter does provide for assessing public improvements,
no standardized method is addressed.
Staff has reviewed several assessment policies from surrounding
communities, and has formulated a policy for the City of Mounds View. This
policy has been discussed at council work sessions numerous times and
submitted to the city attorney for his comments . Staff has implemented the
attorney' s suggested changes, and presented the document to Council at the
May 1, 1995 work session. At that time, staff was given the direction to
proceed with adoption, and schedule a public hearing.
Should Council have any questions or concerns prior to the public hearing,
that staff may address, please call me .
Michael Ulrich, Director of Public Works
RtECOMMENDATION;
Approve the formal introduction of Ordinance No. 560, adopting a Public
Improvement Policy for the City of Mounds View.
ASSESSMENT POLICY STATEMENT
CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
ASSESSMENT POLICY FOR LOCAL IMPROVEMENTS
SECTION I - GENERAL POLICY STATEMENT
A. PURPOSE
The purpose of this Assessment Policy is to provide a fair and equitable manner of
recovering and distributing the cost of public improvements. While there is no perfect
assessment policy, it is important that assessments be implemented in a reasonable,
consistent and fair manner. There may be exceptions to the Assessment Policy when
unique situations or circumstances exist which may require special consideration and
discretion by the City Council. Therefore, the assessment policy is intended to serve
as a guide for a systematic assessment process in the City of Mounds View.
This policy shall relate only to those public improvements allowable under Chapter 429,
Minnesota Statutes. These public improvements may include the following:
a) Sanitary sewer utility system improvements
b) Water utility system improvements
c) Storm sewer, holding pond and drainage systems
d) Streets, curb and gutters, grading, graveling
e) Pedestrian ways
f) Tree trimming, care and removal
g) Abatement of nuisances
h) Public malls, plazas and courtyards
i) Service charges which are unpaid for the cost of rubbish removal from
sidewalks, weed elimination, and the elimination of public health or safety
hazards, upon,passage of appropriate ordinances
j) Surface water maintenance, ie ditch and pond cleaning
B. PROCEDURE
The procedures used by the City of Mounds View. ("City") for levying special
assessments are those specified by Minnesota Statutes and the City Charter, which
provide that all or a part of the cost of improvements may be assessed against
benefitting properties. The procedures for local improvements are summarized in
Exhibit "A".
While establishing the authority by which communities may proceed to construct public
facility projects, the statutes provide no guide as to how costs are to be apportioned.
Therefore, it is the responsibility of the local legislative body to establish a fair and
reasonable method by which properties will be assessed.
Page 3
2, Property Owner Petition. The City Council may decide, by simple majority,
on an improvement after receiving a petition for said improvement from the
owners of not less than twenty five (25%) of the properties abutting on the
streets named in the petition benefitting from the improvement. In
addition, all owners of real property abutting upon any street named as the
location of any improvement may petition the City Council to construct the
improvement and to assess the entire cost against their property. In the
latter case, the City Council may, without a public hearing, adopt a
resolution determining such fact and ordering the improvement. However,
as'requir-edby the City code, a_public hearing shall be conducted_on such
improvements prior to adoption of a resolution ordering the
improvement. The City Council may decide not to proceed with an
assessment unless it receives an agreement, signed by all affected
property owners, agreeing to the amount of proposed assessments and
waiving their rights to appeal such assessments.
3. Developer Request. A developer who is the owner of all the property
within the proposed subdivision may petition the City Council to construct
the improvement and to assess the entire cost against the developer's
property pursuant to Minnesota Statutes. In such event, the City may,
without a public hearing, adopt a resolution determining such fact and
ordering the improvement. However, a developer's agreement, including
a valid and enforceable waiver of its right to appeal the levy of special
assessments, shall be negotiated and executed prior to said
authorization. It may also be advisable to conduct public hearings on the
improvement to avoid misunderstanding by the petitioners and to also
inform the general public about the nature of the project.
E. PROJECT COSTS
Project costs shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
1. Construction costs (day labor or contractual).
2. Engineering and consulting fees.
3. Administrative fees.
4. Right-of-Way acquisition/condemnation costs.
5. Legal fees.
6. Capitalized interest.
7. Financing costs.
Page 5
SECTION II - METHODS OF ASSESSMENT
The nature of an improvement determines the method of assessment. The objective is
to choose an assessment method which will arrive at a reasonable, fair and equitable
assessment which will be uniform upon the same class of property within the assessed
area. The most frequently recognized assessment methods are: the unit assessment,
the front footage assessment and the area assessment. Depending upon the individual
project, any one or a combination of these methods may be utilized to arrive at an
appropriat_e__cost_ distribution. City staff will consider all methods___and weigh_ their
applicability to the project and present a recommendation to the City Council in the form
of a mock assessment roll (or rolls). A description of each assessment and its
corresponding policy application is presented. A separate section (Section Ill) will
identify the appropriate matchup of method with a specific type of project and analyze
why each is generally used.
The purpose of assessment formulas is to allocate assessed costs among benefitted
properties without an actual determination, on a property-by-property basis, of special
benefits received. However, the formula should result in a allocation of assessments
which is reasonably related to the benefit received. Any one predetermined formula will
not be appropriate in all cases because of circumstances unique to the relationship
between the specific project and the specific properties benefitted. When considering
an assessment method or formula for any given project, it may be necessary to
combine assessment methods or to modify the methods described below. Therefore,
the following description of methods of assessments should be regarded as guidelines,
which may not be appropriate in all cases.
Page 7
c. Front Footage Assessment. The actual physical dimensions of a parcel
abutting an improvement (ie., street, sewer, water, etc.) will generally not
be construed as the frontage utilized to calculate the assessment for a
particular parcel. Rather, an "adjusted front footage" will be determined.
The purpose of this method is to equalize assessment calculations for lots
of similar size. Individual parcels by their very nature differ considerably
in shape and area. The following procedures will apply when calculating
adjusted front footage. The selection of the appropriate procedures will
be determined by the specific configuration of the parcel. All
measurements_will be_scaled_from available plat_and section_maps_and will
be rounded down to the nearest 1/2 foot dimension with any excess
fraction deleted. Categorical type descriptions are as follows:
1. Standard Lots
2. Rectangular Variation Lots
3. Triangular Lots
4. Cul-de-sac Lots
5. Curved Lots
6. Irregularly Shaped Lots
7. Corner Lots
8. Flag Lots
9. Double Frontage Lots
The ultimate objective of these procedures is to arrive at a fair and
equitable distribution of cost whereby consideration is given to lot size and
parcels are comparably assessed.
Page 9
F. Sanitary Sewer and Water Trunk Improvements. Trunk sewer and water mains
are usually designed to carry larger volumes of flow than are necessary within an
immediate property area in order to serve additional properties beyond the area
of their immediate placement. Therefore, 100 percent (100%) of the cost of trunk
improvements will be assessed on a unit basis to all properties within a district
deemed to be benefitted from the trunk improvements.
G. Sewer and Water Services. Individual sewer and water services benefit only the
properties they serve and 100 percent (100%) of their cost shall be assessed to
the property for which they are installed.
H. Drainage Improvements. Storm drainage and ponding/basin systems are usually
constructed to serve a specific drainage or "watershed" district. The cost of
drainage improvements shall be two-thirds (2/3) assessed. The remaining cost
will be paid for by the Storm Water Surface Utility and/or by an ad valorem tax
basis to the properties within the district as provided by Minnesota Statutes.
Storm sewer reconstruction normally takes place together with street
reconstruction projects and the costs shall be assessed in accordance with the
assessment policies related to street improvements. Site specific improvements
would be assessed at a two-thirds (2/3) rate, to the benefitting properties.
•
Special Conditions. Special consideration shall be given to the "age" of a street
or utility system when determining the proportion of cost to be assessed to
benefitted properties. If it is necessary to reconstruct or resurface a street or
perform major repair/replacement work on sewer and water utilities, before a
reasonable amount of time (10 to 12 years for resurfacing, 12 to 17 years for
partial reconstruction and 17 to 25 years for total reconstruction) the assessment
shall be calculated on a pro-rata basis. The remaining cost shall be recovered
by means of the general ad valorem property tax paid by the entire community
or by other funds that may become available to the City for infrastructure
cost recovery.
4. Cul-de-Sac Lots. The adjusted front footage for those lots that exist on cul-
de-sacs will be calculated at the midsection of the lot at the most
reasonably defined and determinable position. This line will be computed
by connecting the midpoints of the two side lot lines. Or, if the lots are
similar in nature and configuration, a common lot width, such as the
standard set back of 30' may be assigned based upon an evaluation of
typical lots within the subdivision.

5. Curved Lots. In certain situations such as those where lots are located
along meandering trail system streets, read patterns create curvilineal
frontages. In such instances, the adjusted front footage will be the width
of the lot measured at the midpoint of the shortest side lot line.

6. Irregularly Shaped Lots. In many cases, unplatted parcels that are legally
described by a metes and bounds description are irregular and odd
shaped. The adjusted front footage will be calculated by measuring the
lot width at the 30 foot building setback line.

7. Corner Lots
a) On a corner lot, 100 percent (100%) of the adjusted front footage
of the short side will be assessed and 35 percent (35%) of the adjusted
front footage of the long side will be assessed for improvements benefitting
the respective sides. The length of the property sides and not the
orientation of the principal building shall determine adjusted front footage
in this case. A series of lots (two or more) under common ownership shall
be considered as one parcel or lot for determining which is the short or
long side of a property. However, this shall only apply to series of lots on
which only one principal building is situated.

9. Double Frontage Lots. If a parcel, other than a corner lot, comprises
frontage on two streets and is eligible for subdivision, then an adjusted
front footage assessment will be charged along each street. For double
frontage lots lacking the necessary depth for subdivision, only a single
adjusted front footage will be computed.

4. Prepayment. The property owner may at any time prior to November 15
of the initial year, prepay the balance of the assessment with interest
accrued to December 31 of that year. The property owner may also
choose to pay the remaining assessment balance at any time, with the
exception of the current year's installment of principal and interest.
D. Appeals Procedures. No appeal may be taken as to the amount of any
assessment adopted unless a written objection signed by the affected property
owner is filed with the City Clerk's- office prior-to-the assessment hearing
presented to the presiding officer at the hearing. The property owner may appeal
an assessment to District Court by serving notice of the appeal upon the Mayor
or City Clerk within thirty (30) days after the adoption of the assessment and filing
such notice with the District Court within ten (10) days after service of the appeal
upon the Mayor or City Clerk.
E. Reapportionment Upon Land Division. When a tract of land against which a
special assessment has been levied is subsequently divided or subdivided by plat
or otherwise, the City Council may, on application of the owner of any part of the
tract or on its own motion, equitably apportion among the various lots or parcels
in the tract all the installments of the assessment against the tract remaining
unpaid and not then due if it determines that such apportionment will not
materially impair collection of the unpaid balance of the original assessment
against the tract. The apportionment shall be done on the same basis as the
original assessment unless another method of apportioning can be done with the
owner's acceptance and if the apportionment will not materially impair collection
of the unpaid balance of the assessment against the tract of land. In any case,
the City Council may require furnishing of a satisfactory surety bond in certain
cases as specified in Minnesota Statutes Section 429.071, Subd. 3. Notice of the
apportionment and of the right to appeal shall be mailed to or personally serviced
upon all owners of any part of the tract.
F. Senior Citizen Deferral. Chapter 202.13 of the Mounds View City Code allows the
City Council, at its discretion, to defer the payment of any special assessment for
local improvements constructed by the City when it determines by a three-fifths
(3/5) vote that the property being assessed is homestead property and that one
or more of the owners of the property is sixty-five (65) years of age or over and
that the payment of the assessment would be a hardship for the owner thereof.
The interest for senior citizen deferral shall be at the same rate that the City sets
for other property owners for the improvement.
Page 18
3. County land is subject to assessment and shall be assessed in the same
manner as if it were privately owned, subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 435.19, subd. 1, as long as the assessments do not exceed the
special benefits conferred.
D. Municipal Property Assessments. City owner property is divided into three
classifications for the purpose of determining assessment participation. They are:
1. Public Facility Land
2. Public Right-of-Way
3. Park Land
Public facility property is defined as land utilized for public buildings such as city
halls, fire halls, libraries, maintenance garages, municipal parking lots, etc. Public
facility property within a project area will participate in the total assessable cost
of an improvement and will be treated in the same manner as any other
benefitted parcel.
Public right-of-way property consisting of all City acquired easements, subject to
fee title, for the specific purpose of utility placement or street construction will be
assessed and treated in the same manner as any other benefitted parcel.
Park land assessment eligibility is further categorized according to the following
descriptions:
1. "Community Parks" are characterized by a higher degree of intense public
use and are relatively large in area size. They are normally associated with
athletic events and sporting activities, ie, softball, football, baseball, hockey,
etc. Park lands of this nature will be subject to assessments. Because
community parks provide citywide benefit, the cost of these assessment
shall be recovered by a special levy upon the ad valorem taxes.
2. "Neighborhood Parks" accommodate open space objectives within
residential development and are passive in use as indicated by such
features as playground structures. Because neighborhood parks are
commonly used by the immediate residents of the area, such park land will
not be assessed if it comprises less than 25 percent of the aggregate
project area. Larger parks representing an area greater than 25 percent of
the aggregate project area shall participate in the assessment process in
the same manner as community parks.
Page 20
Residential streets will be designed and constructed for nine (9) ton and
thirty two (32) feet wide. (This thirty two (32) feet, as all streets, is a face
of curb to face of curb measurement.)
Page 22
OVERSIZING A pipe which is designed and constructed larger and/or
deeper than necessary to serve a specific project area.
PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT A project undertaken by the City under the authority
granted in MSA 429.021 for the purpose of installation
of improvements such as street, curb and gutter,
sewer, water, etc. A public hearing shall be conducted
to determine the necessity and common good of the
project as it affects the community. Upon
authorization, the City will proceed with construction
and administration of the project.
TOWNHOUSE Single family attached units in structures housing three
(3) or more contiguous dwelling units, sharing a
common wall, each having separate individual front and
rear entrances; the structure is that of a row-type house
as distinguished from multiple-dwelling apartment
buildings.
UTILITY IMPROVEMENT A defined area within which all properties are deemed
AREA to have been served by an important project and are
considered to receive the benefit.
Page 24
7. After work is completed and receiving Engineer's recommendation for final
acceptance, the following Resolution is adopted.:
Adopt Resolution "Accepting Work".
8. Assessment Proceedings:
Adopt Resolution "Declaring Cost to be Assessed and Ordering Preparation of
Proposed Assessment".
Adopt Resolution for "Hearing on Proposed Assessment" (need not publish
resolution - but must publish and mail hearing notice).
9. After hearing and adopting assessment, adopt the following Resolution:
Adopt Resolution "Adopting Assessment". (Need not be published.)
Page 26
EXHIBIT "C"
LIFE CYCLE FOR IMPROVEMENTS
The following public improvements may be financed by the City to serve existing
developed areas. The life cycle for improvements for assessment purposes is:
A. Trunk sanitary - 30 years
B. Lateral sanitary sewers - 30 years
C. Storm sewers - 30 years
D. Bituminous street with concrete curb and gutter - 25 years
E. Sidewalks - 20 years
F. Watermain trunk lines - 40 years
G. Watermain lateral lines - 40 years
H. Drainage ditch cleaning - 10 years (City jurisdiction)

4. Cul-de-Sac Lots. The adjusted front footage for those lots that exist on cul-
de-sacs will be calculated at the midsection of the lot at the most
reasonably defined and determinable position. This line will be computed
by connecting the midpoints of the two side lot lines. Or, if the lots are
similar in nature and configuration, a common lot width, such as the
standard set back of 30' may be assigned based upon an evaluation of
typical lots within the subdivision.

improved traffic frontage and greater visibility along business district
and industrial park intersections. The adjusted front footage shall be the
entire frontage measured along the setback line comprising the building
envelope.
Adj. Front Footage
EXAMPLES
Lot A-280'
Lot B-390'
8. Flag Lots. Properties which utilize a narrow private easement or
maintain ownership of access to their property exceeding a minimum
length of 125 feet, thereby having a small frontage on a street, will be
assigned an adjusted front footage of 75 feet. This dimension is consistent
with the subdivision ordinance which prescribes such length as the
minimum lot frontage along a public roadway. The adjusted front footage
for flag lots whose driveway access is under 125 feet will be measured at
the building setback line from the access terminus.

For the Week of May 15, 1995 - May 19, 1995
ADMINISTRATION
Special Reminder: Councilmember Blanchard will not be in attendance at the May 22
Council meeting. She will be out of town.
Cruikshank who?
Well, today is Tim Cruikshank's last day with the City of Mounds View. He will take
the reins of the City of Lauderdale on Monday. I don't know if he has heard yet, but a
few minor events have taken place in Lauderdale since he accepted the job:
* Jesse Ventura has moved to Lauderdale...
* The Sioux Tribe has decided that they really don't want the TCCAP
site, but want Lauderdale instead
* Roseville needs portions of Lauderdale for the Rosedale
expansion (it will be called, of course, Lauderdale)....
* The Mayor of Lauderdale has announced that the City is in
financial crisis and that the new Administrator has agreed to
work for free for the first year.... What a guy you are, Tim!
* Lauderdale passed a new ordinance Tuesday night outlawing little
red Volkswagen's with loud mufflers
* Another ordinance passed by the Lauderdale Council: The
Administrator is expected to wear presentable ties...and they
must match the sports coat and pants
We all wish Tim the best of luck in his new position.
Tim Cruikshank has left the City.
Legislative Session
The Legislature is slated to adjourn on Monday after what has been a rather
uneventful session. Many of the more controversial issues have been discussed, but
not acted upon. Some have had action, but await the Governor's veto - Orfield's bill.
We all now await the final action which will determine if we will be under a levy freeze
for 1996 and levy limits in 1997. Also in question is the level of LGA/HACA that will be
granted cities in the next biennium.
AMM has provided all member cities with a Legislative Tracking Report which I have
included herein for your information.
—I-have invited Senator Novak to the June Work Session to provide the Council with a
Legislative Update.
Tim Cruikshank has left the City.
Peddlers Beware of Mounds View's Finest!
As we all know, the City has had an on-going problem with peddlers and transient
merchants. Their presence in the community disturbs many residents and their failure
to comply with City policies is a constant irritant to staff who, especially in Spring,
Summer and Fall, spend an inordinate amount of time dealing with their presence.
But, thanks to the cooperation of our police officers and their support staff, we are
making a dent. On Tuesday, Officer Mike Kampa was called to the Tom Thumb store
on a complaint that men in a brown van were selling electronic equipment. Not only
did the men not have a permit but there was a warrant for one of the men.
In his accompanying report, Sergeant Jerry Johnson noted that the company,
Thunder Electronics out of Spring Lake Park, had been tagged last year for selling
without a permit.
Thanks to Officer Kampa's quick involvement and subsequent action, the message
will soon be clear that if you want to peddle in Mounds View, you had best abide by
the City's permit regulations!
We certainly could not regulate these peddlers and transient merchants without the
cooperation of the Mounds View Police Department. Thanks to the P.D. staff and a
special thanks to Officer Mike Kampa!
Tim Cruikshank has left the City.
D.A.R.E. Graduation
Pinewood's DARE graduation took place on Tuesday night. The event was organized
by Officer Tom Baumgart and included participation by the Mayor, Councilmember
Trude, Sergeant Jerry Johnson and Officer Roger Koopmeiner (or "Koopie" as he is
affectionately known). Officer Baumgart had arranged for the Wyatt Brothers DARE
cement truck and MTC DARE Bus to be at the school for display and tours.
Comments from people who were in attendance said that they were impressed with
the level of knowledge the students displayed, the involvement of the community and
the dedication that the Police Department has provided, first with "Officer Bob" and
now with Officer Baumgart. In the words of one participant, "This was a really big
deal!"
Outstanding job, Officer Baumgart!
Tim Cruikshank has left the City.
Fire Training Facility
Monday, City Administrators/Managers and Fire Chiefs from B/SLP/MV, Fridley and
Brooklyn Center met to discuss the Fire Training Facility's fire tower. The Facility,
located behind Columbia Arena in Fridley, is nearing completion except for the fire
training tower. The tower is expected to cost more than $75,000.
Several years ago, each department contributed to the construction of the training
facility (B/SLP/MV contributed $20,000 that had been designated from the fire bond
proceeds).
The Fire Chiefs are asking that each city (B/SLP/MV are considered one city)
contribute $25,000 toward the construction of the tower. Mounds View's share of the
$25,000 would be approximately $5,150.
The Chiefs have been asked to finalize construction costs and send them to the five
cities as soon as possible. The expenditure would be a 1996 expenditure.
Tim Cruikshank has left the City.
Community Connections Committee
The Committee met last Wednesday (May 10) and discussed the demographics of
the City. Julie Trude compiled notes on the meeting and I have included them herein.
The next meeting of the "3C Group" is Thursday, May 18.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND AND SEE YOU MONDAY!

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Cathy has been out of the office all this week attending the National Development
Council Economic Development Certification Course, Part II.
Michele
LAUDERDALE
Once again thanks for the past four years. It has been a wonderful experience and
opportunity for me. It has really been a pleasure working with each of you. Take
care and stay in touch.
NEW MICROFILM MACHINE
My last project was the lease of the new microfilm machine. It has arrived and staff
have been trained on how to operate it.
Tim C.
POLICE
* Three juveniles and two adults were arrested for theft from auto and
possession of a stolen vehicle. The vehicle theft and some of the
theft from auto happened in New Brighton, the rest and arrest occurred
in Mounds View.
Tim Ramacher has left the State.
* More graffiti has shown up in the City. The top man has been working
on this and has a list of 4 juvenile males for the patrol to watch for.
Good work Chief!!
Tim Ramacher has left the State.
* Tom Baumgart held his first D.A.R.E. graduation Tuesday night and from
what I've heard it went very well. The guest speaker was our very
own Mayor Linke.
Tim Ramacher has left the State.
* Officers Dave Anderson, Roger Koopmeiners and Bob Nelson received
letters of commendation from our department. All three of them
worked on a case involving a house burglary, and a group of juvenile
males that went to our Western Bank to cash in some stolen change
from that house. Officer Anderson warned the bank that if anybody
came in cashing any large amount of change, they should call our
department. The burglars came into cash the change and the bank
notified us would led to the arrests. We also sent a thank you
letter to the bank and to the employees that assisted.

FINANCE
Don Brager is out of the country.
This week has been pretty routine here in the "Finance World of Mounds View". Some
money came in and some money went out. We communicated with auditors, citizens,
vendors, and fellow employees; likewise they communicated with us.
Don is out of the country.
Dorothy is collecting money from the 1st quarter utility billing and handling any
disputed bills. In order to keep postage rates as low as possible for the city, she is
also working with the Post Office so that she will be prepared for the new courier
route/bar coding system that the Post Office may be coming out with this year. On
April 18th, Dorothy attended a Twin Cities Automation Fair to learn more about this
system. As for now, Mounds View was congratulated for using the most economical
method available, Carrier Routes, in mailing meter reading cards and utility bills. But
more important is the fact that Dorothy has reached the "Rule of 90". Simply put; that
means Dorothy can now retire with full benefits. Since we love her, Kitty and I are
doing everything in our power to make work at City Hall too good to give up. SO...BE
EXTRA NICE TO DOROTHY.
Brager is out of the country.
Kitty has been working on fixed assets this week. Wednesday and Thursday she
attended a payroll seminar in Brooklyn Park. Kitty has been involved in planning the
farewell for Tim Cruikshank and is now working on the committee planning a summer
get together for city hall staff. Kitty is also very involved with the committee working to
get the most out of the City Hall computer network and Twin City FREENET.
Don is out of the country.
Mary prepared accounts payable this week. She cleaned up a lot of loose ends so
that when the audit is completely finished she can devote her time to pushing out
1994 & 1995 financial reports for the department heads.
In case you didn't know yet; Don Brager is out of the country.
CONGRATULATIONS AND OUR BEST WISHES TO TIM. WE WILL MISS YOU.

( PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY
PARKS:
* I met with Zack Hansen, Fawzi and members of Ramsey County Master
Gardeners at Ardan Park to discuss landscaping schemes for the compost
facility of Ardan Park. This is a 1995 goal of the Parks and Recreation
Commission, to plan a co-existing park design for both passive park use and
composting services. The compost facility currently is unsightly and detracts
from the beauty of the park. Therefore, Ramsey County has agreed to pursue
landscaping designs which will screen the compost facility to enhance the park
aesthetics.
* Rick Wriskey, Steve Dazenski, Mary Johnson and I met with Gene Wagner,
President of the Silver Lake Woods Homeowners Association regarding the
screening of softballs from field number 2. I have received calls from Emmett
Johnson again regarding homerun softballs extending past the outfield fence,
rolling past the berm to their homes. Because their request for extended
fencing or netting or instant landscaping has not come to fruition, there is
inadequate resources for successful conclusion to this problem. One thing that
we can do and have done is placement of snow fencing on top of the berm in
hopes of snagging long hit balls that end up on the berm. However, the
homeowners do no like the appearance of this temporary fencing. The
Association continues to ask me why fencing cannot be installed and my reply
continues to be "no funding". They continually ask me to keep fighting for this
cause. I have informed them that it is beyond my authority, since it is a capital
budget item that requires Council approval. I am afraid that we are at a stand
still in the situation.
As you recall, Mr. Johnson filed a claim with the Cities' insurance carrier. The
claim was denied because it was determined that the City had done everything
possible to responsibly deal with the situation including installation of the
temporary fencing, informing users of rules of hitting, scheduling long ball
hitting leagues elsewhere, hiring a homerun ball catcher. (You each received a
copy of this letter from our insurance trust regarding this claim.)
* Lambert Park was hit with graffiti last week. It is unfortunate because as you
recall, Lambert Park building is block, and graffiti is very difficult to remove
from concrete block. Other areas of the community were hit as well including
Pinewood School basketball goal. The Parks crew is trying to keep up with
mowing and field work until the seasonals are on board - hoping that at least
two seasonals-will begin Monday, May 22 which will allow time to be spent on
the graffiti at Lambert Park.
* Two groups of Irondale High School provided community service projects in
the park. One work/study group helped pick up litter at Silver View Park.
Another group of physically and mentally challenged students worked at
Greenfield Park for a morning. Luckily the days were sunny and warm and I
think the students had a good time working together while benefitting the
community. Steve Dazenski is great at preparing work and tools and supplies
for these groups. It takes time and organization to organize student groups,
but I think that it is a very good cooperative benefit for both schools and parks.
* Best Locks are contracted to re-key the park buildings. Hopefully the work will
be completed by the end of next week. New keys will need to be distributed
to park building users. The benefit will be much more secure buildings, using
keys that cannot be copied.
RECREATION:
* Mary has been busy the past couple weekends conducting Coaches Clinics.
The program is approximately 3 hours in duration and provides volunteer
coaches with information and goals and objectives of the program. In addition,
rules, regulations, equipment, first aid supplies, schedules, parent manuals,
team shirts and picture package information is distributed. THE SUMMER
YOUTH ATHLETIC PROGRAMS HAVE BEGUN!
* Last weekend the High School Fastpitch Softball team hosted a tournament at
Silver View Park.
* Not only has Mary prepared the manuals for all the City sponsored youth
athletic teams, but he also printed 70 copies of MVAA's manuals.
* I mailed a copy of the final document prepared by Jim Thomson for the MVAA
Ground Lease Agreement. In addition, I reviewed the document and prepared
a list of items that MVAA should discuss at the May Board Meeting - outlining
the requirements that the Ground Lease Agreement requires of the MVAA ie.
designated contact person, etc. Steve Dazenski met with Ernie Lepore
regarding the location of the building.
CABLE TV
* Jerry has been busy completing the DARE video.
GOLF COURSE
* Bridgco has been contacted for a cost of installing hand railing to the
boardwalk as suggested by Berkley Risk Services, Inc. It was their
recommendation that the City comply with ADA regulations requiring a 42"
handrail. This ads a cost of approximately $8,000 to the boardwalk. However,
to stay in compliance with safety and ADA regulations it is important that we
install this railing. The railing will be completed the first part of June, at which
time the boardwalk will also be leveled as originally intended.
* The warmer weather has been good for the newly seeded grass. This year's
Spring weather has set us back approximately 3 weeks. We had such a great
Fall, 1994 growing season, but this Spring weather could have been better -
warm weather is preferable.
* Advertisements continue to be placed in various newspapers and publications.
The Clubhouse is receiving many calls for tee times. The Practice Range
attendance is relative to the weather, busy in good weather, not busy on cold
and rainy days.
* Hennepin County Parks staff is visiting the golf course, interested in the
specifications for the maintenance building and clubhouse - finding both
buildings to be excellent especially in relationship to the costs. They want to
"borrow" some ideas for their two new buildings that they are adding at
Hennepin County Regional Parks system. This is quite a compliment since
Hennepin County Regional Parks system is renowned for excellence in parks
facilities.
Mary S.
PUBLIC WORKS
* Staff has completed the road ratings for the year. Now all of this data must be
entered into the pavement management program. After this step, staff will
begin to format the ratings to determine the level of maintenance each rated
step will receive. Staff is scheduled to begin crack sealing later this month.
* We have been experiencing several electrical problems with the motor control
panel at well number five. This control panel and the starters are in excess of
twenty years old. Staff has been robbing the starter contacts, and a few other
parts from well four, since it is rarely used. New starter contacts for this wells 5
and 6 cost over $3,000. Electrical service calls are adding up rapidly. Staff has
been consulting with Bacon Electric to determine the cost of changing this
motor controls to Soft Motor Controls. Not only will these controls save electric
costs, but will reduce pump and motor wear. Staff will report to council with it's
findings.
* Staff attended a Rice Creek Watershed meeting last week. Items discussed
were increased flows throughout the lower portion of the district, and ditch
maintenance.
* A representative from NSP and staff surveyed the air conditioning units in all
the City's building to see if all of some of them qualify for energy savings
switches. When installed these devices will cycle the compressor every 15
minutes during peak energy demand periods. This is another method of saving
energy dollars and is free of cost. It appears now, that Random Park, Public
Works, and the Golf Course are the only buildings that can participate. The
units at City Hall are too large. The limit is 7 ton units.
* The security system was installed at the Public Works Facility last week. Staff
still has to change the outside lock, but otherwise the system is running fine.

COMMUNITY

TOWNSEDGE TERRACE STORM SHELTER
Within the past year, Townsedge Terrace Manufactured Home Park was given City
approval to construct a storm shelter on their property. At the time the site plan for
the structure was reviewed, Staff located all utility services located on the property to
ensure that the proposed shelter would not impact those in any way. During that
review, no easements or utility services were discovered in the area of the structure.
Recently, a resident of Old Highway 8 contacted the City to inform us that their
service crossed the Townsedge property in the exact location where the storm shelter
is to be constructed. Upon researching the residents claim, Staff discovered that an
easement which should have been obtained at the time of installation of the water
main at Townsedge Terrace (approximately 1967) was never obtained.
Staff contacted the City Attorney and was advised that because the service has been
in place for almost 30 years, the resident has certain rights to its continued use and
maintenance. Therefore, Staff will be working with the Townsedge management to
come up with an alternative site for the shelter. If an alternative cannot be found, an
agreement regarding the relocation of the service will need to be signed by
Townsedge Terrace prior to issuance of a building permit. This agreement will hold
the City harmless from any claims resulting from the relocation of the service and the
construction of the shelter.
Staff will keep you posted on this issue.

RE: Bridges Technology Center
Dear Samantha & Cathy:
On behalf of Larry Lindberg, Steve Peterson, and Joe Wentzel I would like to thank you for
your time and the information you shared with us at our recent meeting. I would like to
clarify our discussion to this point to make sure that I understand actions needed for the
successful completion of the Bridges Technology Center.
Proposed Project:
Bridges Technology Center will be a 31,000 SF industrial building located on Lot 3,
Block 1, North Star Industrial Park. The building will be of quality materials
consistent with the City's desires for projects adjacent to the Municipal Golf Course.
The primary tenant will be Midwest IV, an industry leader in Home Care
Pharmaceutical delivery. As you are aware there will likely be a second tenant as
well that is very technical in nature. The owner of the real estate will be the
company representatives Mr. Lindberg, Mr. Peterson, and Mr. Wentzel.
The building is currently being designed and we should have the preliminary
schematic available soon.
Tax Increment Assistance (TIF):
The City policy has been to provide TIF on a pay-as-you-go basis. There is an
agreement in place through the current property owner regarding City assistance for
extending utilities. It is the developers responsibility to provide a pro forma analysis
relating to meeting the "but for" test. This analysis must show the gap for which tax
increment is being requested.

COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS
MINUTES OF MAY 10, 1995
The meeting was called to order by Julie Trude at 5:30 p.m. at the Mounds View
City Hall. In attendance were: Louise & Jim Paron representing seniors, Gary
Quick and Dan Nelson of the Mounds View Economic Development Commission,
Harold Kurtz of District 621 School Board, Penny Howard of Edgewood Middle
School, Donna Nelson of Pinewood School, Kim Goodsell of the ECFE program,
Nick Tomali of Community Education and Julie Trude of the Mounds View City
Council.
Harold Kurtz reported that the School Board had recently discussed the Community
Connections meetings. The School Board expressed interest and support for this
project which could result in facilities that could provide double use--school and
community use. There was no discussion of details. However, there was only
interest in working with the Edgewood site.
There was a general discussion of the Edgewood site and the advantages it would
offer to the community over the current Ralph Reader site for ECFE and community
education, food shelf and other programs. The needs lists were discussed and a
request was made that the large sheets drawn up at the previous meeting be typed
and distributed at the next meeting.
Nick Tomali arrived and explained the demographic maps he had obtained. These
were circulated for review. The maps showed location of school age and preschool
children fairly equally dispersed throughout nearly every Mounds View neighbor-
hood. Tomali noted there were fewer seniors than in New Brighton and no
clustering of seniors. Additional maps were reviewed.
Tomali explained that he thought the district should have about four locations for
providing early education, special education, WIC and county social services. It
would be logical to pair Sunnyside & Pinewood attendance areas for these services
in any facility built at Edgewood.

From:Julie Trude To:City of Mounds View 5116195 at 15:52:12
Donna Nelson noted that there is a need by families in crisis for services to be
available for their preschool as well as school-age children. It would be helpful for
these families to have services close to where they live. She suggested kindergarten
overflow space at an Edgewood site for the two elementary schools might meet the
needs of certain families who would also draw on other programs available at the
site for their preschoolers.
Activity needs of local students was discussed. Penny Howard noted that many
Edgewood students arrive before school and stay hours after even when they are not
involved in activities. Donna Nelson noted that the same occurs at Pinewood and
in the summer many children continue to come to school because it is a pleasant and
safe place. However, there is no one responsible for all of these children who come
to Pinewood during these non-school times.
The next meeting was set for Thursday May 18, 7 p.m. at Edgewood School. Nick
Tomali will arrange for John Ostlund to discuss physical space needs of programs
and possible expansion space at Edgewood. The committee will prioritize a list of
wants and needs for this space. Nick Tomali will present an early education
concept paper.
The meeting was adjourned at 6:35 p. m.
