ITEM 2
MEMO TO: MAYOR—AND COUNCIL
FROM: MARY SAARION, DIRECTOR
PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY
DATE: JANUARY 10, 1990
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A FEDERAL GRANT FOR
A TRANSPORTATION VAN
Senior Citizen Coordinator Jeanette Spiczka brought my attention to a grant available
through the Department of Transportation for the acquisition of a van. The City of
Fridley was awarded this grant last year and is presently waiting for the delivery of
their van. I requested information on the grant before Christmas, but just received it
in the mail today. The timeline is short. Two sections of the grant are due on
February 14, 1990. The grant is 80 percent Federally funded and calls for 20 percent
matching funds from a non-profit community organization.
The issues concerning such a grant are:
Who should solicit a matching organization? Which organizations?
Storage of the vehicle.
• - Maintenance and insurance coverage.
Drivers for the van.
Uses of the van.
Who would provide administration/scheduling?
Jeanette Spiczka has expressed the need for a van especially for Senior Citizens. Our
two Senior Citizen Clubs are getting older and several members are presently without
drivers licenses. I have talked to Adeline Lee, member of the Silver View Park Task
Force, who expressed the need for transportation for those less ambulatory living in
Wildwood Manor. With the likelihood of congregate dining and other Senior Citizen
activities decentralizing, the need for transportation for Senior activities is a relevant
need.
I would like to discuss these issues at the meeting so that the Council can give me
direction on whether or not to pursue this grant application.

To All Interested Parties:
The enclosed document explains the capital grant program
authorized under Section 16 (b) (2) of the Urban Mass Trans-
portation Act of 1964, as amended. The purpose of this
program is to provide federal financial assistance for the
purchase of capital equipment by private non-profit organi-
zations to provide transportation services for elderly and
handicapped persons. This information guide will assist you
in making application for this program.
The Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA) will allo-
cate approximately $600 , 000 in Section 16 (b) (2) grant funds to
Minnesota for Fiscal Year 1990 . This grant is very competitive
because of the limited funds which historically fall short of
satisfying the application requests. To disperse these limited
funds, the evaluation of applications will place a high priority •
on how well applicants meet the following criteria: 1. The
degree of coordination and cooperation among local organizations
and existing transit and paratransit operators; 2. Extent and
urgency of local needs; 3. Management capability in the areas
of deliver selection and training, vehicle maintenance; and
service planning; 4. Quality and thoroughness of the operating
plan, including routes, schedules, ridership projections, and
utilization. These criteria are explained in greater detail in
the application.
The grant application requirements are much the same as in the
past year. Again the application process includes an UMTA re-
quired seven step procedure with a completion deadline for each
of the seven steps. This process is described in detail in the
enclosed instruction booklet commencing on page 5 under "C. Noti-
fication to Other Providers" . On time completion of each of
the seven steps in this new procedure is critical to Mn/DOT' s
acceptance of the application.
When you have completed the application, please mail one copy
to your Regional Development Commission or Metropolitan Planning
Organization for review except as indicated in Exhibit A of the
application booklet. Mail the original and three copies to:

0 FROM: MARY SA-AM ON, DIRECTOR
PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY
DATE: JANUARY 10, 1990
SUBJECT: SILVER VIEW PARK PICNIC SHELTER UTILITY BILL
On Thursday, January 4, City Engineer Minetor received a fax from Dailey Homes
regarding an unpaid bill for 120 feet of water service to Silver View Park picnic
shelter from Volk Water and Sewer. Evidently, Volk Water and Sewer had
arrangements with Dailey Homes to install the utilities 10 feet from the building as
required in the building specifications. The water and sewer plans prepared by SEH
showed the sewer service to the 10 foot building connection but the water connection
only to the fire hydrant. The distance of the water connections from the fire hydrant
to the building is the missing link in the water and sewer specifications. The plans
have been reviewed by City Engineer Minetor and it is his conclusion that the 110
feet of water service from the fire hydrant to the building is missing in the plans.
IDThere is approximately $7,000 allotted for the installation of electrical services to the
building and other contingencies. I met with Lori Pierson from NSP today to review
their plan for installing the electrical services. I hope to have the cost of the electrical
service at Tuesday evening's (January 16) agenda session. In conversation with Lori,
it is speculated that the electrical service will not cost $7,000 providing adequate
monies left over for payment of this link of water service.

SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF INTEREST ON PREPAID
ASSESSMENTS FOR THE MOUNDS VIEW LIBRARY
Attached please find a letter from Assistant Ramsey County
Attorney Gary Davis indicating that at the time the County
purchased the property for the Mounds View Branch Library
from Kraus-Anderson the County was rquired to prepay the
1990 assessments and interest on the prepayment. Mr . Davis
is requesting that the City waive the interest on the pre-
payment due to the fact that the only reason the interest
was required to be paid was the fact that the purchase
occurred after October 15 of 1989. Should you agree with
this request , a resolution will need to be prepared
authorizing the waiving of the collection of the interest
payment for presentation to the Ramsey County Department of
Property Taxation. Your direction in this matter would be
appreciated.

Re : REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF THE 1990 INTEREST
PAYMENT ON THE PREPAID ASSESSMENTS DUE
ON THE PROPERTY FOR THE MOUNDS VIEW
LIBRARY
Dear Council Members :
As you know, Ramsey County has purchased the property located at Lot
1 , Block 12 , Silver Lake Woods for the new Mounds View Library.
Because the property was purchased after October 15 , the County was
required to prepay the 1990 assessments, but because they were already
certified to the tax department, we were also required to pay the 1990
interest on the pre-payment . Seeing as the 1990 assessments are paid
already, it only seems logical that we should not have to pay the
estimated 1990 interest on this payment .
The Ramsey County Department of Property Taxation needs a resolution
from the Mounds View City Council in order for them to waive
collection of this prospective interest payment.
We respectfully request that the Mounds View City Council pass a
resolution stating that Mounds View will waive the prospective
interest on the pre-paid 1990 assessments due on the site for the new
Mounds View Library. The resolution should include the legal
description ( Lot 1 , Block 12 , Silver Lake Woods ) and also the property
identification number (P. I .N. 07-30-23-11-0011-7) .
If you have any questions about this procedure , please contact me at
298-5692. Chris Samuel , Supervisor of the Ramsey County Tax
Accounting Division, would also be able to explain the need for the
resolution to you. His telephone number is 298-5298 .

DATE: January 9 , 1990
SUBJECT ; Purchase of sweeper
Earlier this fall we demonstrated two street sweepers , an
Elgin from MacQueen Equipment and an Athey H-10A from Boyum
Equipment. We conducted our tests on Hillview Road both east and
west of Long Lake Road. The reason for this being that the east
side is new sealcoat and the west is an older, smoother surface.
Each sweeper was expected to sweep the street clean and pick-up
the material , which consisted of recycled asphalt, leaves ,
branches , lumber, and cans. Each of the sweepers performed with
similar results . For that reason an open spec was offered to both
vendors . Although both sweepers are very similar, they both have
different theories to their operation and different standard and
. optional equipment. They were asked to note these in their bids .
We recieved the following bids :
Boyum Equipment $75 , 243 . 00
MacQueen Equipment $70 ,783. 00
(optional extended warranty) $ 338 . 00
Based on the demonstration of these two sweepers and the
relative similarities of them, we are reccommending the award to
the low bidder, plus the extended warranty.
RECCOMMENDATION: Staff reccommends the award to MacQueen
Equipment for an Elgin Series P street sweeper, plus extended
warranty option for $71 , 121 . 00 to be charged to 420-4121-703 ,
Storm Water Management fund, or 100-4270-703 , Street Dept Capital
Fund if this money is transfered to that account.

IIIthe Agreements that the minimum values for the parcels, as of
1/2/90, will be $4, 070, 000 (Building I) and $825, 000 (Taco Bell/
Kentucky Fried Chicken) .

Informational
Public Works Director Minetor explained representa- Presentation
tives from MnDOT were present to explain the concept by Representa-
of new Highway 10, and answer questions. tives of MnDOT
on Plans to
Mark Benson, of MnDOT, explained construction of new Complete New
Highway 10 will begin ' in 1992, and he gave an over- Highway 10
view of the project and reviewed the map showing the
path and interchanges of the highway. It will be 5.3
miles long, and it is being built due to congestion
on existing Highway 10. All access to the new highway
will be through interchanges, which will be metered.
Mr. Benson reviewed the stages the project has gone
through, back to 1979. County Road J will be done
in 1992, to Highway 65, with the entire project to
be completed in 1996.
James Nelson, 8303 Red Oak Drive, asked how traffic
would be handled during construction.
Craig Robinson, of MnDOT, reviewed the plan and showed
on the map how 'traffic will be directed. The road
will be closed off for a very hort time, perhaps two
weeks, and traffic will be rerouted. •
Lyle Nelson, no address given, expressed concern
with both noise and air pollution, stating 59, 900
cars are projected by the year 2000, and he questioned
where all those cars are going to go. He also stated
he felt those cars would be going through his yard.
Mr. Benson explained the ramps will be metered to
control traffic.
Mr. Robinson reviewed the noise abatement situation,
explaining that due to Legislative action, noise
abatement cannot be put in until the road is recon-
structed. However, the noise projections for 2000
do not show significant increases in levels. There
is a Legislative moratorium on noise abatement, and
while individual communities have attempted to
address it, it is very expensive.
Mr. Nelson read from an article published on November
1, 1979 in the New Brighton Bulletin, and stated he
feels this meeting is no more than a formality, as
the people have no say in the matter.
Jerry Linke, 2319 Knoll Drive, asked what projections
111 are for 35W.
Mounds View City Council January 8, 1990
Regular Meeting Page Three
0 Mr. Robinson replied metered ramps will handle the
increasing traffic, and while the total metering
system is not in place yet, by the time the project
is finished, it will be.
Mr. Linke stated now is the time to look at future
problems, not later.
Mayor Hankner stated she sees a real potential for
build-up of traffic along County Road I, with the
metered ramp.
Mr. Robinson explained when all ramps on the system
are metered, it will run more smoothly. He also
explained the EIS was approved in 1986, and planning
cannot be done until the EIS is approved, so it can
be 4-6 years from the time the EIS is approved until
construction actually begins.
Mayor Hankner noted a good deal of commercial develop-
ment had been done and asked if that had been antici-
pated.
Mr. Robinson replied they had taken future develop-
ment into consideration. He also explained how
• different metering systems work, whether on a fixed
time or by pressure plate, or centralized computed
system. He added a new system is being worked on.
Paul Henzela, 8470 Eastwood, asked if any preliminary
studies have included looking at studies of metro-
politan areas that have expanded rapidly, so that
the Twin Cities can learn from those other areas.
Mr. Robinson replied all studies benefit from the
experience of other areas.
Mark Hogen,,, 8340 Spring Lake Park Road, asked which
roads in Mounds View will intersect with the
airport road.
Mr. Robinson replied existing County Road J will be
a local street from Groveland to Long Lake Road, and
the first street that would have access is Knoll-
wood.
Mr. Hogen stated it would then appear that Knollwood
and Spring Lake Park Road would have all the traffic
and asked if they would be updated.
Mr. Robinson replied nothing is planned for the local
. roads.
Lloyd Bardwell, 2932 County Road J, expressed con-
cern for access for emergency vehicles.
Mounds View City Council January 8, 190
Regular Meeting Page Four
Mr. Minetor explained County Road J will be recon411
-
structed in the near future to take care of some of
the traffic concerns on J itself. Spring Lake Park
Road and Knollwood Drive are not planned for re-
construction at that time.
Jim Meyer, of Blaine, asked how many houses would be
taken for the project. He added he had read 15 would
taken in Coon Rapids.
Mr. Robinson replied he believes one will be taken in
Blaine, and about a dozen hangers at the airport.
Paul Milke asked what will happen to County Road J.
Mr. Robinson stated he understood it would be turned
over to the City. He noted, also, that the center
line of the road is the boundary between Mounds View
and Blaine.
Mr. Nelson stated he believed traffic would get off
the highway and go through the residential areas,
especially if the freeway is backed up.
Mayor Hankner stated the City could talk to the
Legislature about changing the moratorium on noise •
abatement. She added laws can be changed, but it
takes a lot of work. She stated her primary concerns
are noise abatement and traffic.
Mr. Benson explained the interchange at Highway 65
has too much traffic already, which is why the airport
interchange is needed.
Mr. Robinson stated the weight limitations on County
Road J would be a ten ton design, and he believes the
speed limit would be 35-40 MPH.
Mayor Hankner noted the lights on old Highway 10 are
timed that residents, specifically at Long Lake Road,
cannot get across, and asked if that timing could be
changed. The City would prefer a walk-over there,
but has been turned down.
Mr. Robinson explained as signals are being rehabili-
tated, they are adding pedestrian signals and ramps.
Mr. Minetor advised that was done recently, and he
has been told the timing problem is still being looked
at.
Mr. Henzela stated he is a concerned parent, as his •
children will cross the highway to go to the new
library, and he questioned why a bridge couldn ' t be
built.
t s
Mounds View City Council January 8, 1990
Regular Meeting Page Five
Mr. Robinson explained the cost would be $200-250,000,.
and experience shows people do not use them, and the
only way to make one effective would be to put in
chain link fencing to block the road off. He added
that children especially will not use them, and
fatalities occur every year with someone trying to
cross the highway next to a pedestrian bridge.
Sherri Nelson, no address given, stated she feels
like a second 'class citizen, as she waits so long
for the signals to cross Highway 10.
Mr. Minetor clarified that emergency access would
be addressed by MnDOT, as it is a MnDOT project.
Clerk/Administrator Pauley added that Fire Chief
Fagerstrom has never voiced concern about the
access, but he will check with him and have him
speak with MnDOT.
Mayor Hankner closed the public hearing and
reopened the regular meeting at 7:56 PM.
It was agreed the issues that needed to be addressed
further were the moratorium on noise abatement,
• emergency access, and timing of the signal on
Highway 10 at Long Lake Road.
Mayor Hankner advised that the State of the City
address and reappointment of Commissions,. which
typically would be done at the first regular meet-
ing of the year, will be done on January 22.
Mayor Hankner stated a resident had recently raised
the point about attendance of Councilmembers at
meetings, and she is also concerned about the issue
and would like to develop a new policy, to publish
t e ounci a en•ance rec•r: - •
newspaper quarterly, as well as quarterly in the
City newsletter. She reviewed the Code and Charter
requirements for attendance, and explained special
meetings are not a legal obligation under the Code.
She added she would like to start with publishing
the Council attendance record for 1989 in the
official newspaper, as soon as possible, and then
follow up every six months, as well as in the City
newsleter.
Motion/Second: Hankner/Paone to direct Staff to
put 1989 attendance records of the Council for
regular meetings in the New Brighton Bulletin, and
0 prepare a resolution for the remainder of the policy.

Mr. Linke stated he waspresent on behalf of the Mounds 7. Residents
ll
View Lions Club, requesting a favor of the Council and Requests ana
City, to allow the Lions to hang the sign they were Comments from
given by the Lioness Club, in honor of their 25th year the Floor
as a Lions group, on the sign board next to City Hall,
along Highway 10. He added another sign is being pur-
chased, which they would like to hang on the other side
of the sign board, as well as listing the dates of
their meetings inithe middle.
Councilmember Wuori stated she feels it would be
nice to let people traveling through Mounds View
know of this.
Councilmember Quick stated he is concerned, that if
they allow this sign to be placed on the City board,
that it would open the door for all other organiza-
tions to put up signs.
Clerk/Administrator Pauley stated there is not a lot
of room on the sign board to handle signs, and they
