Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY: Monies were budgeted for additional sprinkling of the soccer field and picnic shelter area at Silver View Park and for the landscaping area at Greenfield. These areas have been or will be newly seeded or sodded. Water sprinkling is paramount in the survival of the grass. The sprinkling systems are intended to provide a nice turf in the parks with as little manhours for upkeep as possible. These areas are highly used by the public and there is a great need for sturdy turf. A total of $6,700.00 was budgeted for the additional lines to already present sprinkling systems at both parks. The lowest bid exceeds the budgeted amount by $2,751.00. However, also in the parks capital budget is funding for park equipment installation. That budgeted amount is $5,000.00. This money was budgeted with the expectation that contracted services for installation of park capital equipment would be necessary for the installation of the playground equipment at Silver View Park. However, the Mounds View Lion's Club is funding the installation as well as the equipment. Staff requests the council to consider the transfer of $5,000.00 budgeted for equipment installation for the sprinkling project. The benefits of the sprinkling system additions are: • 0 - - . - . n I t of sod which_was1aid_last_year. 2. To reduce the amount of manhours necessary to maintain park grounds. 3. To preserve the quality of the park grounds and facilities. 4. To facilitate the opportunity to seed and landscape these park areas. 5. To keep up with the high volume of use in these two community parks. There is no explanation as to the discrepancy in costs for adding additional sprinkling at these two sites. Estimates were requested at budget time last year and the estimated amounts were budgeted. However, the amounts of the bids exceeded the estimated prices. RECOMMENDATION: To approve the transfer of $5,000.00 budgeted for park equipment installation for installation of additional sprinkling at Silver View Park and Greenfield Park.

Zrr REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: Item11103 4 STAFF REPORT Report Number: 91 -21A 7C�U° AGENDA SESSION DATE May 6, 1991 Report Date: May 6, 1991 DISPOSITION Item Description: Consideration of City Participation in the North Metro Mayor's Association and Participation in the North Metro TH 610/TH 10 Crosstown Council Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) ,SUMMARY; Last month Blaine's Mayor, Elwyn Tinklenberg, presented information to the Council about membership in the North Metro Mayors Association. The Council discussed possible membership and asked that the issue be tabled to a later agenda session. I have spoke with Joe Strauss on several occasions requesting additional information regarding the benefits of membership. I have attached the transportation project information which was sent to me this week. It appears that the current focus of the Association is promoting and lobbying for various public road improvements which would directly or indirectly impact the membership cities. One of those activities is the North Metro TH 610/TH 10 Crosstown Council. The Council consists of representatives from the communities which border the proposed TH 610 roadway. Its purpose is to engage the services of a professional public utility lobbyist, Capital Partnerships Inc. , to pursue funding for the roadway system through the US Surface Transforation Assistance Act. The lobbyists, together with ntatives—from thhc—A:,-seakation-are curre-nt-ly—me —members of the House Public Works and Transportation Committee to gain support for federal funding. The Crosstown Council's proposed budget for 1991/92 is attached. Mounds View's share of the lobbying effort is $5,000 . This amount is over and beyond the approximate $3,000 membership fee for the North Metro Mayor's Association. The lobbying effort for the TH 610 roadway is proposed as a phased development project to allow for a phased funding of State matching funds which is required by the Surface Transportation Assistance Act. The proposed phases are described in the Project Summary provided in the Council packet. RECOMMENDATION; Samantha aa.),t_619 ) ..t_eze_e_oteL uno City Administrator STAFF REPORT 91 -21A PAGE TWO MAY 6, 1991 The issue of membership in the North Metro Mayors Association and the related issue of participation in the Crosstown Council is placed on the agenda for your review. An important item for Council to consider regarding the membership issue is the degree to which Mounds View wishes to become a visible and active player in the TH610 project. The cost for both the membership and the lobbying effort are substantial. However, the efforts may result in increased awareness of the City.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY: Two service needs have been identified which require Council approval for a budget change to provide the funding: 1. Municipal Code Update It has been two years since the Municipal Code has been recodified. The Code is currently stored on outdated Phillips system disks . Technology does not exist at a reasonable cost to transfer the Code on to P.C. word processing disks. Consequently, it will be necessary to input the Code from printed pages directly onto P.C. disks . Costs and processing methods vary: * Temporary office help $1800-2400 (Completion time frame 4-5 weeks) * Hand Scanning $1100+ (In-house - see attached memo) * Professional scanning $1000 (Completion time 2-3 weeks) * In-house data entre Code - cost-and-t-me prohibitive as we do not have staff available to dedicate one person to perform only data entry. It's staff's recommendation that the Code be professionally scanned. Image scanning is not only cost efficient, but timely. The process allows for each page of the Code to be scanned directly onto disks utilizing the same word processing software which is used by the City. The result is that the Code can be easily updated directly off our disks. Samantha Orduno J ECOMMENDATION; City Administrator Adopt Resolution No. 4075 Authorizing A Budget Change to Provide for Municipal Code Update and Computer Consultant/Training Services STAFF REPORT NO. 91-20A MAY 6, 1991 PAGE TWO 2 . In-House Computer Training and Equipment Coordination For the past several weeks, there have been several major computer software and hardware problems . Some of the problems stem from an inadequate staff training program regarding computer use and problem solving. In order to minimize the expense of repairs and future problems, a computer consultant wascalled in to assess the problems and propose workable solutions. Recommendations include an in-house training program on software and hardware utilization. The consultant has also been able to identify several printing problems as well as advise us on the feasibility of the implementation of the Novel Network System. Based on the consultant's recommendation, the network system will be delayed until our computer equipment has been updated and coordinated sufficiently to more effectively accommodate the network system. The first phase of the equipment update will be to utilize the funds Council approved earlier this year to purchase three P.C. 's (two for Administration and one for Parks and Recreation) . These P.C. 's will become the standard for future equipment coordination. In addition to equipment problem solving, utilization and staff training, the consultant recommends the development of an in-house User Committee which would interact and share information among departments And other cities (This was one of the "cooperative efforts" discussed at the Western Ramsey County Cities Meeting on April 27, 1991) . Budget Change Request: The 1991 budget provided for the services of a Council Recording Secretary at a total cost of $2110. It is staff's recommendation that the Council authorize a budget change which would allow these funds to be transferred into the Administration Professional Services Fund to pay for the cost of scanning the City Code and also to fund consultant services for in-house computer training and trouble-shooting. If the recommendations are acceptable to Council, the attached Resolution will be placed on the Consent Agenda. MEMORANDUM Date: April 26, 1991 To: Samantha Orduno, From: Jerry Schwinghammer, Computer Consultant Re: Scanning the City Code I tested Catch Word, a word scanning software, and developed the following estimate of time and resources needed to scan the Municipal Code in house. Learning the Software 10 hours Scanning and Editing 5 minutes per page times 1200 pages. 100 hours Total Hours 110 hours x $10 . 00 Total Cost $1, 100 .00 This I feel is a conservative estimate of the costs . There is the potential that this project could take considerable more time if a single person can't be assigned to this task. The learning of the software is somewhat involved. What hasn't been included is the time for proofing.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) ,SUMMARY; The Public Works Department has contacted several companies regarding the disposal of the contaminated soil stock-piled at the Public Works Shop. This material was generated when the underground gasoline tanks were removed last fall. The initial source of disposal was to be land spreading this spring; however, there are many additional restrictions on land spreading and it apparently is not feasible at this time. One of the possible disposal locations would charge $42 per ton which is estimated to be a total of $25,000. Staff is checking on alternate locations which may be significantly less expensive. The state petro-fund will reimburse 90% of the costs after the work is completed. Staff will have the stock-pile removed prior to Clean-Up Day. Additional information will be forwarded to Council as it becomes available. • Ric neto City Engineer/Director of Public Works RECOMMENDATION; REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: Item 7 'VS STAFF REPORT Report Number: 91-13A AGENDA SESSION DATE May 6, 1991 Report Date: May 6, 1991 DISPOSITION Item Description: Multi-Tech Extension of Planned Unit Development (P.U.D. ) Amendment Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY: At the regularly scheduled City Council meeting of May 29, 1990, Resolution No. 3038 approving the P.U.D. amendment of Multi-Tech Systems was passed. This approval, by Municipal Code, allows the applicant one (1) year in which to begin significant construction on the project or the approval becomes null and void. Due to growth not meeting expectations, Multi-Tech decided to forego the plans for building expansion. At this time, Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. has requested that an extension to this previously approved P.U.D. amendment be made. I have attached copies of both City Council Resolution No. 3038 and the applicant's letter of request for your review.

Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; Sandi Pidel, representing the estate of Arlien Newton, has requested a minor subdivision for the property located at 8300 Fairchild Avenue, legally known as Auditor's Subdivision No. 89, Lot 5, Block 1, Gustafson's 1st Addition and in said Auditor's Subdivision No. 89 the North 95.07 feet(subject to roads and easements) of Lot 68, and shown on the attached certificate of survey dated March 25, 1991. Staff has reviewed this subdivision request and found it to be, in concept, in conformance with Chapter 42 of the Municipal Code which governs subdivisions. However, conditions do exist on the site which need to be addressed. City Engineer Minetor has reviewed the proposal and his suggestions are included in a memo to myself dated April 17, 1991. A copy of this memo is attached for your review. Specifically, the issues of road right-of-way and the non-conforming structure need to be remedied. Chapter 42.09 Subd. 2 (1)c of the Mounds View Municipal Code specifies the minimum street right-of-way widths within the City. For a local street(which both Groveland and Fairchild are), the minimum dimension is 60 feet. This standard dimension would require that the City attain those portions of the subdivided property needed to meet these minimums. Secondly, the location of the garage requires that either a written agreement or land acquisition take place to provide for a resolution to the matter. Staff is in the process of polling the members of the Park Commission for their suggestions. The responses of the Commissioners will be available Monday evening. At the-Regularly-scheduled-Pla ' ' sion-Meeting-of-May-1,-1991, Pl 'ssion_Resolution Nn 312-91 recommending approval of the subdivision was adopted. However, a contingency attached to the adoption of this resolution was that only 15 feet of right-of-way along Fairchild Avenue and no right-of-way along Groveland Road be acquired. This contingency is not in conformance with the previously referred to section of Chapter 42 governing road right-of-way widths. Staff recommends that this item be re-examined by Council. Any deviation from the road right-of-way requirements outlined in Chapter 42 would require a variance. I have included all relevant documents in addition to Planning Commission Resolution No. 312-91 for your review. If you have any questions relating to this request, please feel free to give me . RECOMMENDATION; ul H.rringto , Planning Tech ician MEMORANDUM Memo To :Paul Harrington, Planning Technician From :Ric Minetor, City Engineer/Director of Public Works Date :April 17, 1991 Subject :Lot Split for Newton Property I have reviewed the Certificate of Survey and a number of items need to be addressed prior to approval of this lot split. The first item of concern is the obvious overlap of the garage onto the City' park land. It is my understanding that this park land was originally donated by the Newton family and the encroachment of the garage and also a garden plot have continued under an informal agreement. The encroaching garage obviously can not meet the side yard setback requirement, but a more important concern is the legal concerns of this encroachment. At the very least, an agreement between the current owner and the City should be drawn up to document the encroachment and provide for a future resolution. This could be a requirement that should there be extensive damage the garage would be rebuilt at proper setbacks and that no structural changes or improvements be allowed to the existing garage. A copy of the deed to this property should be provided to the City for review. The following issue may be already resolved, but without the deed this can not be determined. The Certificate of survey indicates that the portion of Tract A that is a part of lot 68, Auditor's Subdivision No. 89 extends to the center of Fairchild Avenue. Also Tract B is shown to extend into Groveland Road. A separate warranty deed for the 30 feet of Fairchild Avenue and the 8 feet of Groveland Road running in favor of the City should be •rovided •rior to a••roval of this lot split. A 10 foot utility easement runs through Gustafson's 1st Addition centered on the rear lot lines. This easement should be extended along the rear lot lines of this lot split. The lot areas should be listed on the certificate of survey. Current ownership of the parcels should also be shown. It may be appropriate to require this lot split to be platted due to the need to address the street right-of-ways and easements. This is dependent on the language in the deed. RESOLUTION NO. 312-91 CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW COUNTY OF RAMSEY STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF THE MINOR SUBDIVISION REQUEST BY THE ESTATE OF ARLIEN NEWTON, 8300 FAIRCHILD AVENUE, PLANNING CASE NO. 322-91 WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed minor subdivision request by the Estate of Arlien Newton for the property located at 8300 Fairchild Avenue, legally known as Auditor's Subdivision No. 89, Lot 5, Block 1, Gustafson's 1st Addition and in said Auditor's Subdivision No. 89 the north 95.07 feet (subject to roads and easements) of Lot 68, as shown on the Certificate of survey dated March 25, 1991; and WHEREAS, each of the proposed lots meet the minimum lot area and width requirements as outlined in the zoning and subdivision ordinances. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City of Mounds View recommends to the City Council approval of the requested minor subdivision contingent upon the following: 1. That the City deed back 10 feet along the southern most line of Tract A in order to remedy the non-conforming structure. 2. That the most easterly 15 feet of the most southerly 95.07 feet of Tract A be deeded over to the City for road right-of-way. 3. That a 10 foot utility easement, centered on the rear lot lines of the newly created tracts, be provided. 4. This resolution and the Certificate of Survey be recorded with Ramsey County within sixty (60) days of final adoption. 5. The applicant pay a park dedication fee of $100.00.

RECOMMENDATION: REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: Item 11 STAFF REPORT Report Number: 91-17A 11117DS �° AGENDA SESSION DA ' 6, 1991 Report Date: May 6, 1991 DISPOSITION Item Description: Fire and Housing Inspections - Proposal from Fire Dept. Administrator's Review/Recommendation: - No comments to supplement this report - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) SUMMARY; The Fire Department has suggested that they provide all fire inspections in the City of Mounds View. Currently, they inspect places of public congregation (primarily restaurants) and areas requiring a permit from the Fire Dept. The City has been providing fire inspections in all other areas. These include schools, commercial buildings, industrial buildings and multiple dwelling occupancies. The City's inspector has completed the fire inspection of multiple dwelling occupancies at the same time as the annual housing inspection. The Fire Department has suggested that they could undertake all fire inspections for a minimal increase in fees. They are also suggesting that they could handle housing inspections at the same time. Currently the building official or planning technician performs the housing inspection. All buildings are inspected on an annual basis; units in each building are inspected on a random basis during the annual inspection of the building. The fire inspection is performed at the same time as the housing inspection. The Fire Department performs housing inspections in the City of Blaine as well as fire inspections . They are suggesting that Mounds View consider a similar program. Ron Fagerstrom has indicated that he will be at the May 6th Agenda session to discuss this with the Council. Ric Mi eto City Engineer/Director of Public Works RECOMMENDATION; REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section: Item 12 111106 STAFF REPORT Report Number: 91-18A NEW May 6, 1991 ReportpDate: M'a h 1991 AGENDA SESSION DATE Y • DISPOSITION Item Description: Bronson Drive Reconstruction - New Water Treatment Plant Administrator's Review/Recommendation: , n - No comments to supplement this report - Comments attached. Explanation/Summary (attach supplement sheets as necessary.) ,SUMMARY; As a part of the new water treatment plant construction, a new water main in Bronson Drive between Long Lake Road and Edgewood Drive is proposed. There is no existing water main in this location. This will, improve the efficiency of pumping water out of the reservoir, treatment plant, or water tower and into the overall distribution system. It will also allow service of the Public Works Shops facility with treated water. The construction of this water main will disturb approximately two- thirds of the surface of Bronson Drive. It is recommended that for this reason Bronson Drive be reconstructed at this time. The pavement can be increased to provide a 10 ton route past the shops facility. It is also recommended to provide curb and gutter as well as curb inlets (catch basins) to control drainage. The road would also be widened to accommodate truck traffic from our shops. Short-Elliott-Hendrickson is working on the cost estimate which should will be available before the Agenda Session meeting. The rough preliminary estimate is $30 , 000 . Additional information will be presented at the meeting. • - -4411111161. Ric Mi etor City Engineer/Director of Public Works R.EC;OMMENDATION:
