City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Mark Beer, Finance Director
Item Title/Subject: First Reading and Introduction of Ordinance 824, Adopting a
Five Year Financial Plan for 2010 thru 2014
Introduction:
The City Charter, Chapter 7.05, requires that a five year financial plan be prepared
annually. It must be presented at a public hearing and adopted by ordinance.
The components of the Five Year Financial Plan are attached for first reading and
introduction of ordinance number 824. There are several components to the Five Year
Financial Plan: the General Fund Multi-year Operating Budget, the Vehicle & Equipment
Replacement Plan, the Capital Improvement Program, the Impact on Capital Projects
Funds’ Cash Balance, and Utility Rate Studies.
This five year plan should be considered a work-in-progress and a guide for Council and
Staff to make longer range decisions. As new information becomes available and
conditions change we can update the components to determine the long range affect.
General Fund Multi-year Operating Budget:
The multi-year operating budget for the General Fund includes a reduction of Local
Government Aid for 2009 of $147,000 and $340,000 for 2010. The Legislature has
restricted levy increases thru 2011. The 2010 levy restriction limits levy increases to
approximately .84% with a number of exceptions including an allowance to levy for
unalloted Local Government Aid. This would allow the City to levy above the state levy
restriction as a result of unalloted funds in 2008 and 2009 of $295,000. The City’s charter
does not allow this exception but does allow increases related to capital expenditures and
debt service. The City was prevented from increasing our levy for the Street and Utility
Improvement Program in 2009 as a result of the state levy restrictions, because of the
unallotment exception the City will be able to levy for the Street and Utility Improvement
Program. It will not be the $400,000 that was anticipated in the financing program but
could be in the $250,000 range.
When possible staff used known amounts instead of projections. The 2010 levy reflects a
2.5% increase over the previous year’s levy which would be within the City charter
restriction. The levy amount may be adjusted as we develop the 2010 budget and better
information becomes available. This version of the budget assumes that there will be no
additions to personnel or other major changes in operating expenditures.
Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Plan
The schedule has been updated to reflect retirements and new acquisitions. The current
amounts transferred to the Vehicle and Equipment Fund from the participating funds is
sufficient to maintain replacement levels.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP):
The Capital Improvement Program was presented to the City Council at the June 22, 2009
Council meeting. There have been no changes from that version of the plan. This is a list
of possible projects the timing and cost will be refined as implementation becomes more
eminent.
Impact on Capital Projects Funds’ Cash Balances:
This presents the sources and uses and impacts to cash for the Capital Improvement
Program on the four capital projects funds for the five year period of this report, 2010 thru
2014.
Utility Rate Studies
Utility rate studies are included with mixed results. The street light rate can be maintained
at the current level. Future rate increases will depend on the cost of electricity. The water,
sanitary sewer, and storm water rates should be considered for an increase in 2010. The
City will have to adopt a conservation rate for water rates effective January 1, 2010. The
base water rate should increase by a dime in 2010, which will add about $8 a year to the
average bill based on 20,000 gallons per quarter. The conservation rate and the
consumption steps will also impact annual costs for homeowners and businesses
depending on consumption. The sanitary sewer rate should be increased 2% which will
add $4.12 per year based on 20,000 gallons per quarter. The storm water rate should be
increased by $1.00 per quarter in 2010, which will add $4 a year to the average residential
bill. Future increases will need to be considered until the funds stabilize. The need for an
increase is generated by significant capital expenses during the 2009 to 2012 time period
as noted in the CIP.
Five Year Financial Plan Adoption:
The Five Year Plan is a blueprint for future years and is only one possible scenario. It is
intended to be changed as priorities change and more current information becomes
available. A public hearing will be held August 10, 2009 for the second reading and
adoption of ordinance 824, this will be a roll call vote. Staff welcomes Council comments
and direction on any desired changes.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Ken Roberts, Community Development Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7476, Reapproving the Final Plat and
Development Agreement for the “Select Senior Living”
Development;
Introduction:
On October 27, 2008, the City Council passed Resolution 7347, which approved the
final plat and development agreement for the Select Senior Living development. This
was the last of the Council actions required in order for the project to move forward. Per
city code, an applicant has 120 days to record the plat with Ramsey County, and if the
recording does not happen within this timeframe, the plat approval is void. The code
also states that the plat can be reapproved and the applicant given up to another 120
days. Due to the shakeup within the banking industry, Select Senior Living was not able
to start the project within the allowed 120 days and their final plat and development
agreement approval is now void.
Chapter 1202.07: Final Plat Approval Procedure
Subd. 4. Recording of Final Plat: If the final plat is approved, the subdivider shall, within
one hundred twenty (120) days, record it with the County Register of Deeds or
Registrar of Titles and, within ten (10) days of recording, furnish the City with a
reproducible copy of the final plat showing evidence of the recording; otherwise, the
approval of the final plat shall be void, and the Clerk-Administrator shall so notify
the County Register of Deeds or Registrar of Titles.
Subd. 5. Re-Approval: In the event the plat is not recordable as approved or the
subdivider fails to record within the time prescribed herein, the Council may
re-approve the final plat upon the following terms and conditions: a) that the
subdivider proves to the satisfaction of the Council that the delay was caused by
conditions beyond the control of the subdivider, and b) that the extension of time
requested has or will have no adverse effect on the City or property owners of the
City, and c) that the Council shall set the time limit of the extension requested but in
no event shall it exceed one hundred twenty (120) days. (1988 Code §42.05; 1993
Code).

Discussion:
Select Senior Living, represented by Joel Larson, has submitted a letter requesting the
final plat and development agreement be reapproved. They have always intended to
move forward with the project but unfortunately ran into problems beyond their control.
A contractor was chosen and the building permit application and plans were submitted
in February. Mr. Larson indicated that they have again received a letter of commitment
from a bank and hope to move forward with the project soon.
Recommendations:
Staff requests that the City Council pass Resolution 7476, reapproving the Select
Senior Living final plat and development agreement.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council
From:Joe Rhein, Consulting Engineer
Item Title/Subject:Resolution 7477 Approving the Preliminary Feasibility Report
for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement Program
Background
On October 22, 2007 the City Council adopted Resolution 7176 approving the Street
and Utility Improvement Program.
On September 22, 2008 the City Council adopted Resolution 7339 authorizing
preliminary survey activities for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement Program.
On March 9, 2009 the City Council adopted Resolution 7420 authorizing preparation of
a preliminary feasibility report for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement Program.
Discussion
The preliminary feasibility report for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement
Program has been completed. The report is a bound document, consisting of the report
body, eleven figures, and four appendices. A copy of the bound report is included with
this Staff Report for reference.
The report includes:
x Description of the existing conditions in Area C
x Discussion of the proposed improvements for Area C
x Discussion of the non-standard issues within Area C
x Detailed estimated project costs for the proposed improvements
x Discussion of project financing
x Detailed project schedule
The report has been prepared so that it is applicable whether Area C were to proceed
as a separate project on its original schedule of construction in 2011, or whether it is
accelerated and combined with Area B for construction in 2010. The cost estimates in
the report have been prepared on the basis of Area C as a separate project, which
should be conservative.
July 13, 2009 Item No. 7E
Page 2
Estimated Project Cost
The total estimated project cost for the Area C improvements as stated in the Report is
$3,209,900. Based on the financial analysis performed in the Report, it appears that
the project cost is financially feasible. The City Finance Director may wish to review the
financial components of the project to verify the findings of the Report.
Report Approval
The Report is presented for consideration of approval by the City Council. Approval of
the Report does not commit the City to proceeding with a combined project of Area B
and Area C in 2010. Approval of the Report simply acknowledges that the Report is
complete and its findings are appropriate for Area C.
The City Council will consider the question of whether or not to proceed with a
combined project of Area B and Area C under a separate item later in the Agenda of the
July 13th Council meeting. If Council wishes to proceed with a combined project, then
approval of the Report for Area C is necessary at this time to allow the project to
proceed to the next step of plans and specifications.
If the Council chooses not to proceed with a combined project, and Area C reverts back
to its original schedule of construction in 2011, then the approved Report for Area C
would simply be put on the shelf until spring 2010, when it would be time to consider
moving forward with the project for 2011.
Recommendation:
Resolution 7477 has been prepared to approve the Preliminary Feasibility Report for
Area C. The resolution does not contain any additional action step for the development
of the Area C project. A copy of the resolution is included with this Staff Report.
It is recommended the City Council adopt Resolution 7477 to approve the Preliminary
Feasibility Report for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement Program.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council
From:Joe Rhein, Consulting Engineer
Item Title/Subject:Resolution 7478 Ordering the Project and Authorizing
Preparation of Plans and Specifications for Areas B and C of
the Street and Utility Improvement Program
Background
On October 13, 2003 the City Council adopted Resolution No. 6110 authorizing the
preparation of a Preliminary Feasibility Report and consultant selection for the 2003
Street Improvement Project – Phase II. This project later became known as the 2005
Street Improvement Project.
On March 14, 2005 the City Council held a Public Hearing on the Feasibility Report for
the 2005 Street Improvement Project.
On May 9, 2005 the City Council adopted Resolution 6520 approving the sufficiency of
petition in opposition to the 2005 Street Improvement Project. With this action, the 2005
Street Improvement Project was suspended.
On March 12, 2007 the City Council approved Resolution 7045 establishing the Streets
and Utilities Task Force.
On October 22, 2007 the City Council adopted Resolution 7176 establishing the Street
and Utility Improvement Program as recommended by the Task Force. The Program
includes nine Street and Utility Improvement Projects identified as Areas A through I.
Area B is the area formerly identified as the proposed 2005 Street Improvement Project.
On February 11, 2008 the City Council approved Resolution 7223 creating the Streets
and Utilities Committee. The overall charge of the Committee is to ensure the Street
and Utility Improvement Program is implemented as adopted and to advise and provide
recommendations to the City Council on certain issues pertaining to the Program.
On September 22, 2008 the City Council adopted Resolution 7339 Authorizing
Preliminary Survey Activities For Area C Of The Street and Utility Improvement
Program.
On March 9, 2009 the City Council adopted Resolution 7420 authorizing the preparation
of a Preliminary Feasibility Report for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement
Program and selecting Bonestroo as the engineering consultant for the project.
July 13, 2009 Item No. 7F
Page 2
On June 2, 2009 the Streets and Utilities Committee held a Public Information Meeting
to review non-standard issues and gather public feedback within both Areas B and C of
the Street and Utility Improvement Program.
On June 15, 2009 the Streets and Utilities Committee approved recommendations on a
portion of the issues reviewed at the June 2nd Public Information Meeting.
On July 6, 2009 the Streets and Utilities Committee reviewed their recommendations
from June 15th with the City Council at the Council Work Session.
Discussion
The Area A Street and Utility Improvement Project has been successfully designed, with
bids received in January 2009. Due to the economic climate, bidding for the project was
extremely aggressive which resulted in construction costs being approximately 15%
below the Engineer’s Estimate for the project. Likely factors contributing to the good
bidding climate include the size of the project (approximately 5.0 miles) and the current
economic situation.
The feasibility report for project Area B was originally completed in 2005. The project
was later petitioned against and suspended, with plans never being ordered. The Street
and Utility Improvement Program approved by Resolution 7176 proposed Area B for
2010 construction with plans scheduled to be ordered in June 2009. The cost estimates
for the work to be done in Area B, which had originally been prepared for the Report on
the 2005 Street Improvement Project, have now been updated. A copy of the updated
cost estimates, along with a cover letter dated July 8, 2009, are included with this Staff
Report for reference.
Under the Street and Utility Improvement Program, Project Area C was originally
scheduled for construction in 2011. However, due to the competitive bidding
atmosphere, the Mounds View City Council has chosen to evaluate the feasibility of
performing the improvements within Area C at an earlier date than originally anticipated.
The Council ordered preparation of the feasibility report for Area C in March 2009. The
report has just been completed, and was considered for approval under an earlier
agenda item on the July 13, 2009 City Council meeting.
Based on the typical project schedule for the Street and Utility Improvement Program,
the time has arrived to order the construction documents for the 2010 construction
season. Per the original Program schedule the 2010 project is to be Area B. However,
now that the feasibility report for Area C has been completed, the Council can consider
whether it wishes to pursue a combined project of Areas B and C for 2010 construction.

Estimated Project Cost Summary
A summary of the estimated project cost for each Area is shown in the following table.
These summary values were taken from the July 8, 2009 Update for Area B and the
Feasibility Report for Area C. Further detail on these summary costs can be found in
those two documents.

84.3%15.7%100.00%100.00%
* Note: The streets amount for Area B includes the maintenance access trail
Estimated Savings Due to Combined Project
There are three primary economic advantages of pursuing a combined project for Areas
B and C:
1. Savings on engineering costs
2. Lower construction costs
3. Savings on maintenance and other indirect project costs
Based on the current professional services agreement between Bonestroo and the City,
we estimate that approximately $18,000 cost savings in engineering fees will result from
combining the projects. This savings is due to the economy of scale from preparing one
set of construction documents for a single large project, rather than two sets of
construction documents for separate smaller projects.
A portion of the engineering cost for the project is also performed on an hourly basis, for
items such as permit applications, coordination with agencies including Rice Creek
Watershed District, Ramsey County, and MnDOT, as well as for construction surveying
and inspection. Again due to economy of scale, if the hourly engineering work can be
performed 5% more efficiently than it could be on two separate projects, the estimated
savings on hourly engineering work would be on the order of an additional $20,000.
July 13, 2009 Item No. 7F
Page 4
In addition to engineering costs, it is also very likely that the construction cost for the
combined project will be lower than if the projects are bid separately, due to the greater
volume of work in the combined project. While this cannot be exactly determined, an
estimate of a 5% saving on the construction cost seems reasonable.
Also, with the current economic slowdown, it is reasonable to assume very competitive
bidding. This would mean potentially receiving better unit prices for Area C in 2010 than
if the project were bid in 2011, regardless of project size.
Other indirect project expenses will also provide a minor cost savings for the City.
Examples include advertising expenses, and the fee for the City Attorney to review the
construction contracts. Even if these miscellaneous savings only add up to a fraction of
a percent, for a project of this magnitude the savings would be noticeable.
Also one year of maintenance for the Area C streets will be eliminated by reconstructing
the streets in 2010 versus 2011. Adjusting previous annual maintenance cost estimates
to current value and allocating them over the length of streets within the Program, the
proportionate maintenance costs for the length of streets in Area C would be in excess
of $10,000 for 2010.
Based on the above discussion, a table showing the estimated cost savings by
combining the projects is shown below:
Estimated Project Cost Savings
Areas B and C Street and Utility Improvement Projects
Item Area B

Miscellaneous (0.2%)$3,100 $6,400 $9,500
Total Estimated Savings $75,900 $168,100 $244,000
It is estimated the amount that could potentially be saved by the City of Mounds View on
a combined Areas B and C Street and Utility Improvement Project is $244,000. This is
an overall cost savings of 5.15%.

Proposed Project Schedule – Combined Areas B & C
Listed below are the milestone events in a potential schedule for a combined project of
Areas B & C. This schedule is consistent with the feasibility report for Area C.
Feasibility Report ordered – Area B (f.k.a. 2005 SUIP)Oct. 13, 2003
Report completed, Public Hearing held – Area B Mar. 14, 2005
Petition in opposition to Area B upheld May 9, 2005
Preliminary survey – Area C Fall 2008
Feasibility Report ordered – Area C Mar. 9, 2009
Neighborhood meeting – Combined Areas B & C June 2, 2009
Feasibility Report completed – Area C July 8, 2009
Public Hearing, approve Reports, order combined project July 13, 2009
Approve plans and specifications – combined project Dec. 14, 2009
Bid opening – combined project Jan. 28, 2010
Begin construction May 2010
The project schedule listed above would also be correct if the 2010 project were to be
Area B only.
Conclusions:
From the information contained in this Staff Report it can be concluded that the project
development schedule for Area C of the Street and Utility Improvement Program can be
accelerated such that it can be combined with Area B, with the combined project
scheduled for construction in 2010. It can be further concluded that there is an
economic benefit to combining the projects for Areas B and C.
Recommendation:
Resolution 7478 has been prepared to authorize the preparation of the plans and
specifications for the street and utility improvement project to be constructed in 2010.
The Resolution has been prepared based on the assumption that the 2010 project will
be for combined Areas B and C. A copy of the resolution is included with this Staff
Report. If the Council were to choose to proceed with Area B only for the project, the
Resolution would need to be revised to reflect that condition.
It is recommended the City Council adopt Resolution 7478 to authorize preparation of
plans and specifications for Areas B and C of the Street and Utility Improvement
Program.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Nick DeBar, Public Works Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 7479 Approving Non-Standard Street Design
Recommendations for Areas B and C of the Street and Utility
Improvement Program
Background:
The Street and Utilities Task Force developed street standards for use in the Street and
Utility Improvement Program. The Streets and Utilities Committee is to advise and
provide recommendations to the City Council for non-standard street issues
encountered during implementation of the program. The Committee has reviewed non-
standard street design issues and options for Areas B and C of the program and has
made recommendations for final design. The Committees’ recommendations were
presented and discussed by the City Council at their July 6, 2009 work session.
Discussion:
Recommendations for non-standard street design options for Area B and C are being
presented for City Council approval via Resolution 7479. Detailed descriptions and
analysis of the various design issues and options are contained in the staff report from
the July 6, 2009 work session (Item 5). The following is a brief summary of the report:
Springview Lane: Non-Standard Street Width
Springview Lane is an “L”-shaped, dead-end road that terminates into residential
driveways with no clear delineation between public road and private driveways. The
existing roadway width is only 22.5 feet and right-of-way width is only 40 feet and 60
feet in the east-west and north-south directions, respectively.
Due to the potential impacts to properties and low traffic volumes, the Committee
recommends (6-0) that Springview Lane be constructed to a minimum recommended
width of 24 feet measured face-to-face of curb. The Committee further recommends
that an engineered solution be investigated for the turn-around issue at the dead-end of
the roadway during final design.
Knollwood Drive and Woodcrest Drive: Pedestrian/Bicycle Accommodations
Knollwood Drive and Woodcrest Drive are designated as potential pedestrian/bicycle
corridors in the City’s Comprehensive Sidewalk/Trailway Plan. The designation for
these sections of Knollwood and Woodcrest was first conceived by the Trailway
Advocacy Group in a 1992 report. Since then, sidewalk has been constructed along
Silver Lake Road. The 1992 report did not have Silver Lake Road identified as a
pedestrian/bicycle corridor.
Non-Standard Street Design Recommendations – Area B/C
July 13, 2009
Page 2
Due to the duplication of the nearby existing pedestrian accommodations along Silver
Lake Road and the potential expensive impacts to properties to construct
pedestrian/bicycle accommodations, the Committee recommends (6-0) that no
pedestrian or bicycle accommodations be constructed along Knollwood Drive or
Woodcrest Drive in Area B. Without accommodations on Knollwood, there is no need
for accommodations on Woodcrest.
Irondale Road: Non-Standard Street Width Impacts
Irondale Road has existing pavement widths of 26 feet between County Road H and
Woodcrest Drive and 32 feet between Woodcrest Drive and County Road H2. Both widths
fall within the guidelines created by the SUIP standards and therefore, don’t require further
consideration. However, potential impacts involving constructing approximately 95 feet of
retaining wall and power pole relocations on the segment between County Road H and
Woodcrest Drive warranted further investigation into the street width.
The Committee recommends (6-0) that Irondale Road between County Roads H and H2
be constructed to the recommended standard width of 28 feet measured face-to-face of
curb.
Woodcrest Drive: Pedestrian/Bicycle Accommodations
The portion of Woodcrest Drive in Area C (between Bona Road and Long Lake Road) is
designated as a potential pedestrian/bicycle corridor in the City’s Comprehensive
Sidewalk/Trailway Plan. The road is currently 30 feet wide and will be reconstructed to
the City’s standard street width of 28 feet from face-to-face of curb. This segment of
Woodcrest Drive is an east-west connection to Edgewood Middle School for students
living west of the school. Pedestrian/bicycle accommodations in the north boulevard
are preferable to the south boulevard since the accommodations will align better with an
existing City-owned paved walkway easement connecting Bona Road to Edgewood
Drive. A small piece of sidewalk would be required on the east side of Bona Road to
connect to the paved easement walkway. Pedestrian/bicycle accommodations would
complete a pathway route from sidewalks on the Edgewood Drive to the Long Lake
Road.
The Committee recommends (5-0) that a 6-1/2 foot, off-street, concrete sidewalk
located immediately behind the back of curb on the north side of Woodcrest Drive
between Long Lake Road and Bona Road and on the east side of Bona Road between
Woodcrest Drive and the existing paved walkway easement between Bona Road and
Edgewood Drive.
Bona Road: Existing Surmountable Curb
Bona Road is currently 32 feet wide (back-to-back of curb) with surmountable (rolled)
concrete curb between County Road H and Woodcrest Drive. Due to the aged
condition of the curb and impacts to the curb during construction, Bona Road is
recommended to be reconstructed to the recommended standard width of 28 feet
measured face-to-face of curb and built with the recommended standard concrete
vertical curb and gutter type (B618).
Non-Standard Street Design Recommendations – Area B/C
July 13, 2009
Page 3
Edgewood Drive: Non-Standard Street Width + Pedestrian/Bicycle Accommodations
Edgewood Drive is a Municipal State Aid street between County Road H and County
Road H2. It is also a designated pedestrian corridor in the City’s Comprehensive
Sidewalk/Trailway Plan. It currently exists as a wide roadway with 12 foot drive lanes
and 10 foot parking lanes on each side, with a total width of 45 feet face-to-face of curb.
The entire corridor is signed with “No Parking” restrictions with a mix of anytime or
limited time frames.
Due to reasons listed above, options presented by Staff to the Committee only included
configurations that would narrow the road by eliminating the west parking lane. At the
June 2, 2009 public information meeting, a group of residents in Area C were in favor of
keeping the existing configuration with parking accommodations on both sides of the
roadway. The Committee did not adopt any design option for Edgewood Drive and
directed Staff to develop some other options for future consideration. These options will
be presented to the Committee, along with previously considered options, at the August
17, 2009 Committee meeting. A recommendation for Edgewood Drive is anticipated to
be presented for City Council consideration at their August 24, 2009 regular meeting.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 7479 which will approve the
non-standard street design recommendations for Areas B and C of the Street and Utility
Improvement Program. Adopting the resolution will allow the engineering consultant to
progress with the final design and plan/specification preparation phases of the project.
Respectfully submitted,
Nick DeBar
Public Works Director

33
State Representative Tillberry and State Senator Betzold presented outcomes of the 2009 34
Legislative Session and commented on the difficulty of dealing with the State’s $4.6 billion 35
deficit crisis, creation of a two-year budget, and bills that were considered and adopted. 36
37
Council Member Mueller asked about the legislation introduced for the State to compensate 38
teachers to make up for lost 401k funds. Senator Betzold explained the Pensions Commission 39
dealt with major issues, and the Teachers Retirement Association is in significant fiscal trouble. 40
A public pension fund has not failed in Minnesota since the 1930s. Senator Betzold reviewed the 41
options considered and that starting in 2014, the State would increase its contribution if the fund 42
continued to spiral downward. However, the Governor indicated he would not sign it so nothing 43
happened. 44

At the request of Finance Director Beer, Senator Betzold described the difference between a 1
defined contribution plan and defined benefit plan. 2
3
Council Member Gunn asked how bonding or borrowing to balance the budget would be repaid. 4
Senator Betzold advised that action would require a super majority vote of the Legislature. 5
However, the Governor has the statutory authority to shift payments. Senator Betzold stated his 6
support to hold a special session to complete work on the budget. 7
8
Council Member Mueller asked what will be the next steps for the upcoming session. 9
Representative Tillberry stated his hope that the Governor will call for a special session. Senator 10
Betzold commented on actions that he thinks the Governor will take to balance the budget. 11
12
Finance Director Beer asked about mandate reforms that would impact cities. Representative 13
Tillberry advised of his work with mandate reductions. Senator Betzold pointed out that if 14
mandates were to be reduced, this was the year because of the budget deficit. 15
16
Mayor Flaherty asked Representative Tillberry and Senator Betzold to comment on the success 17
of the legislative session. Representative Tillberry stated it would relate to mandate reduction 18
with K-12 funding to assure equity Statewide. Senator Betzold commented on constituent issues 19

Regular Meeting Page 5
Assistant Clerk-Administrator Crane stated Moe’s has made application for renewal of its On 1
Sale Intoxicating Liquor License. Moe’s has submitted application materials, paid the applicable 2
fee, and received satisfactory reports from the Police Department, Finance Department, and Fire 3
Marshal. However, Ramsey County Property Records show that Moe’s is delinquent in its 4
property taxes for 2008 and half of 2009. This is a City Code requirement. In response to Staff’s 5
request, Moe’s submitted a payment plan to pay $1,500 per week for property tax and have it 6
paid by October 1, 2009. As of June 1, 2009, Moe’s owes $53,714.14 in property taxes. 7

13
Council Member Hull asked what would happen if a payment is missed. Assistant Clerk-14
Administrator Crane stated the Council could start the license suspension or revocation process. 15
16
Council Member Mueller commented that a payment plan is good as long as the payments are 17
made on time. She stated while she appreciates the spirit in which the payment plan is offered, 18
the plan should indicate a monthly payment deadline and process so staff can assure timely 19
payments. 20
21
Mayor Flaherty stated Moe’s is asking for a 90-day extension to pay its taxes in full and he is not 22
as concerned with the payment plan as the final result. He asked how the City can place the onus 23
on the applicant to inform the City should a payment be missed. Assistant Clerk-Administrator 24
Crane stated she would have to call the County to ensure payments are made and if not, she 25
would so inform the Council so it can determine whether to start the suspension or revocation 26
process. Mayor Flaherty stated the Council does understand the difficult economic times and has 27
compassion for its businesses but he does not want to be in the position of being asked for 28
another extension. 29
30
Council Member Stigney stated he is concerned with the payment plan and would like more 31
assurance that money will be saved in a timely manner and available to make full payment. 32
33
MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Hull. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7459, a 34
Resolution Approving an On Sale Intoxicating Liquor License for Moe’s, revised to indicate it is 35
being adopted on the 8th day of June, 2009; and the last line to indicate: “may be grounds for 36
suspension or revocation of the liquor license.” and contingent upon receipt of a satisfactory 37
background check from the Minnesota Department of Criminal Apprehension and full payment 38
of its property taxes . 39
40
Council Member Stigney stated his hope that payments are tracked so in 90 days it does not 41
happen that the first half of taxes remain unpaid and the second half are now due. He stated if 42
taxes are not being paid, there is a question whether the business is viable. 43
44

Clerk-Administrator Crane read the Fire Marshal’s inspection report detailing changes needed 17
and recommendation this license not be approved. She reviewed the Council’s options to deny 18

large workload to inspect and follow-up on the road and trail projects. Surface Water Technician 2
Fleischhacker estimated that it takes several weeks to prepare the report and to have it reviewed 3

7. COUNCIL BUSINESS 12
B. Continued Public Hearing: Resolution 7460, a Resolution to Consider an On 13
Sale Intoxicating Liquor License for Robert’s Sports Bar and Entertainment 14
located at 2400 County Road H2. 15
16
Clerk-Administrator Ericson noted this item was continued from the June 8, 2009 Council 17
meeting because of a failed fire inspection. All application materials and fees have been 18
submitted, the property has received a satisfactory report from the Police Department and 19
Finance Department but there continues to be outstanding issues with the fire inspection. If not 20
approved by the City, the liquor license will lapse June 30, 2009. 21
22
Kevin Halvorson, Robert’s Sports Bar and Entertainment, stated no electric work has occurred in 23
the building since 1973 and the State Electrical Inspector has no problem. He stated the City Fire 24
Marshal has been there five times, he feels this involves selective inspection, and he is being 25
picked on. Mr. Halvorson stated the extension cords are UL approved and his insurance 26
company has inspected the property without issue. 27
28
Floyd Halvorson, representing Roberts, reviewed the May 5, 2009 fire inspection addressing the 29
fire extinguisher and that machines need to plug directly into outlets, when possible, to not run 30
electric cords above the ceiling tile in rear pool area, and to not use extension cords for lights in 31
the dance area. Floyd Halvorson stated he followed each item but now the Fire Marshal has 32
indicated no extension cords can be used. He stated the inspection from Saturday says extension 33
cords should not substitute for permanent wiring but the original inspection report does not use 34
those same words. 35
36
Mayor Flaherty stated it appears there has been a miscommunication in what needs to happen. 37
38
Fire Marshal Osmonson explained that she and Floyd Halvorson reviewed the items at every 39
inspection but she did not know that extension cords were running above the ceiling tiles. That 40
is why it was not clearly identified on the initial inspection. She read a section of the State Code 41
indicating extension cords should not be used in place of permanent wiring and used only with 42
portable devices. She stated she talked with Floyd Halvorson about using surge protectors that 43
are UL listed. 44
45
Mounds View City Council June 22, 2009
Regular Meeting Page 3
Kevin Halvorson stated the first inspector used his ladder and looked above the ceiling tiles and 1
said everything was fine. 2
3
Floyd Halvorson explained that the conflict between the new alarm system, sprinkling system, 4
and phone system has been resolved and the alarm system is in working order. The annual 5
monitoring fee with Olson Fire Protection has now been paid, the inspection completed, and the 6
Fire Marshal wanted a faxed copy. 7
8
Kevin Halvorson stated he wants this harassment to stop and all other businesses to be inspected 9
and the Code enforced to the same level, including in the Council Chambers. 10
11
Hearing no additional public input, Mayor Flaherty closed the continued public hearing at 7:43 12
p.m. 13
14
Council Member Stigney stated the June 18, 2009, letter notes that Floyd Halvorson indicated an 15
electrician was coming in to correct the Items 2 and 3. Floyd Halvorson stated it did not occur. 16
17
Council Member Stigney asked when was the last time a State electrical inspection occurred and 18
stated the City should have a copy of that inspection on file. Fire Marshal Osmonson advised the 19
State inspection was made when they moved in and she does not know if another inspection had 20
been made since that time. 21
22
Council Member Stigney asked if more than one portable appliance is connected to an extension 23
cord. Floyd Halvorson stated only one extension cord is used on an appliance and the cash 24
register at the front door has a three-prong extension cord. 25
26
Council Member Stigney noted the language indicates it shall serve only one portable appliance. 27
Fire Marshal Osmonson stated that a television mounted on the wall or light fixtures are not 28
portable appliances. Council Member Stigney asked when these alleged violations could be 29
corrected. Floyd Halvorson stated the surge protectors can be done tomorrow. 30
31
Council Member Stigney asked if the Fire Marshal has documentation from Olson Fire 32
Protection stating service was reinstated. Fire Marshal Osmonson stated she has a copy of an 33
invoice saying work was completed on May 1, 2009 and paid on June 17, 2009 but it does not 34
indicate there is another year of service. Floyd Halvorson showed the Council the information 35
detailing the contract for another year. 36
37
Council Member Mueller stated it sounds like the fixes are simple and can be done. Floyd 38
Halvorson stated that is correct. 39
40
Council Member Stigney stated a television mounted on the wall is not a portable appliance so it 41
cannot use an extension cord. Fire Marshal Osmonson stated that is correct for small power 42
cords but a power strip with surge protection may be used, which is a liberal interpretation of the 43
Code so Robert’s does not have to spend money to install permanent receptacles. She also 44
explained that she is trying to work with all the City’s business owners to gain Code compliance. 45
Mounds View City Council June 22, 2009

Council Member Gunn noted the Code indicates adaptors, power tap, power supply, and 2
installation per what the Fire Marshal has stated. 3
4
Assistant Clerk-Administrator Crane questioned the date for the fire inspection to be passed. 5
Kevin Halvorson stated they would have the surge protectors installed by the end of the week. 6
Mayor Flaherty suggested June 29, 2009. Fire Marshal Osmonson stated she would schedule an 7
inspection for that date. 8

K. Resolution 7467, Approving New and Replacement Signage at the Mounds 2
View Community Center for Creative Kids Academy. 3
4
Community Development Director Roberts presented the request of Creative Kids Academy to 5
change and add signage for their facility in the Mounds View Community Center, which requires 6
a Zoning Permit. Because the business is located at the Community Center, and Council 7
approval is required. 8
9
MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Hull. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7467, 10
Approval of a Zoning Permit for New and Replacement Signage for Creative Kids Academy, a 11
Tenant in the Mounds View Community Center. 12
13
Council Member Stigney asked whether the applicant wants to retain its ground sign and add two 14
additional signs. Community Development Director Roberts clarified the applicant now has two 15
locations of signage, one a ground sign that will be replaced and the taller sign listing all tenants 16
will not change. The additional sign would be on the upper part of the wall of the building, west 17
side of the Community Center. 18
19
The Council discussed its concern with proliferation of ground signs and the amount of signage 20
allowed in a multi-tenant building. Discussion also ensued regarding whether the resolution 21
should put the tenant on notice that ground signs may not be allowed in future leases. 22
23
Community Development Director Roberts stated the City owns this building so it could indicate 24
the ground sign has to be removed at a future date, or that a shared ground sign may be an option. 25
26
Council Member Stigney expressed concern that this may “open the door” too far with regard to 27
ground signage. Attorney Riggs restated that the City owns the property and is able to indicate, if 28
desired, that the ground sign will be removed through the lease renewal process. Council 29
Member Stigney stated if he were to lease this property he would want to know up front it is a 30
possibility that the sign may not be allowed in the future. 31
32
Clerk-Administrator Ericson stated this sign has been in place for six to seven years but that the 33
City could consider new language about signs when a new lease is negotiated. 34
35
AMENDMENT MOTION/SECOND: Stigney/Gunn. To amend the motion to add Condition 2: 36
Continuation of the signage is subject to the existing lease language and future lease negotiations. 37
38
Council Member Gunn asked if the purpose is to control new ground signage or the removal of 39
existing ground signs. Council Member Stigney stated he thinks the City should be in control of 40
both. Council Member Gunn stated she supports controlling new signage requests, but not 41
existing signs since the City has already approved them. 42
43
The Council reviewed the language of the lease agreement, Section 3.1, Tenant Use, which 44
indicates the tenant may, at its sole expense, install signage on and around the building. It also 45

Mayor Flaherty stated his concern that signage on a brick building leaves a silhouette so that area 5
would not match the rest of the brick. Attorney Riggs stated the lease contains a clause the 6
tenant must return the building to its original condition, ordinary wear and tear expected. He 7
agreed the language should be specific if related to the signage. 8
9
AMENDMENT MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Mueller. To amend the Resolution to add 10
Condition 3. The tenant will pay for restoration of brickwork upon removal of signage. 11

L. Resolution 7474, Authorizing a Ground Space Lease with TTM Operating 17
Corporation. 18
19
Finance Director Beer reviewed staff’s past negotiations with TTM Operating Corporation about 20
leasing ground space in the water tower and the agreement reached that TTM use the old 21
Metricom cabinet that is unused but wired. This cabinet does not pose a security issue of locating 22
in the water tower, and that TTM pay $2,000 for each additional connection as a one-time review 23
fee. Now there are two additional carriers on the tower, Sprint and Verizon, and they have 24
agreed to assist the City in leasing tower space to AT&T. It was noted that Mounds View rates 25
would be at the top end of what is charged by other communities and that no other city has 26
negotiated additional monthly charges for additional connections. 27
28
MOTION/SECOND: Gunn/Mueller. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 7474, 29
Authorizing a Ground Space Lease with TTM Operating Corporation, pending legal review of 30
the lease document. 31

County Road H2 to the City Hall at a cost of $8,000 plus taxes and freight. This conduit could 41
be used to extend fiber to Highway 10 businesses, schools, lift stations, wells, and parks. 42
Finance Director Beer noted a budget amendment to the Cable Fund would be needed in the 43
amount of $8,438. 44

Mayor Flaherty expressed concern with increasing the budget. Finance Director Beer noted the 4
cost would be from the Cable Fund, not the General Fund, and a “down payment” on the City’s 5
future communication system. He clarified that strictly the conduit would be installed at this 6
time. 7
