The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements [34 CFR Part 80, 2 CFR Part 213 and Part 6 of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance Compliance Supplement] require all sub -recipients of federal funds to establish and maintain internal controls designed to reasonably ensure compliance with Federal laws, regulations and program compliance requirements. Written policies and procedures are part of the necessary internal controls and are required as a precondition to receiving federal funds. These policies and procedures are intended to be sufficiently comprehensive to adequately meet such requirements. However, in no case are these policies and procedures intended to supersede or limit federal or state laws or regulations, or the provisions of individual grant agreements. Hierarchy of Authority— In the event that conflicting guidance on the administration of Federal awards is available, the city has deemed Federal guidance to be most authoritative, followed by other State or local agencies. Revisions — Guidance provided by the Federal government through the OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance Compliance Supplement are expected to be updated each year. Such updates are considered by the city as they become available and policies and procedures will be revised accordingly. The City Administrator, Assistant City Administrator, Finance Director, and designees are authorized and required to establish and document policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the provisions of federal and state regulations and the provisions of grant agreements. Such policies and procedures are documented herein, and will be reviewed and updated as necessary, but not less than once every three years. Trainin& — City finance personnel and its program administrators of Federal awards will be provided the necessary training through various mechanisms, such as: (1) reviewing monthly State Aid Financial Status Report Updates, accompanying State aid payments, (2) consulting with the city's auditors as needed for clarification, (3) participating in various training opportunities, such as those offered by appropriate professional organizations, (4) reviewing legislative updates from multiple sources, (5) membership and participation in meetings of the Governmental Finance Officers Association (GFOA), (6) coordination and collaboration with individuals performing similar job functions at similar municipalities. Compliance Failures — Compliances failures, whether noted internally by management or through the external audit process, will be addressed immediately by reviewing the reason for the failure with responsible personnel and devising an improved process to encourage compliance in the future. General Accounting and Financial Management It is the policy of the city to comply with all statutory, regulatory, and contractual requirements in the conduct of, and accounting for, its financial operations. The official books of record for the city will be maintained subject to the following provisions: 1. The city will account for its operations in accordance with the Generally Accepted AccountingPrinciples (GAAP) applicable to local units of government. 2. The city will comply with all applicable circulars issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), including, but not limited to: a. OMB Circular A-87 — Cost Principles for States, Local and Indian Tribal Governments. b. OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance — Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non -Profit Organizations (the Single Audit Act). Page 2 3. The city will comply with all contractual requirements detailed in its duly executed grantagrccmcnts with awarding agencies. 4. The city will contract annually with an independent CPA firm for the purposes of conducting the city's external financial audit. To the extent that the city has expended federal awards in excess of the applicable single audit limit (currently $750,000), the city will have a single audit performed in accordance with OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance. 5. To ensure continuing compliance with all applicable accounting requirements, the city may, at its discretion, contract with a CPA firm to provide internal auditing and/or consulting services. 6. The Finance Director shall be responsible for the maintenance of all accounting and financial records (including journals, timesheets, bank statements, audit reports, and similar documents). Such records shall be retained as required by contractual or regulatory requirements. The city has adopted the state's records retention scheduleas its official guide for records storage, filing, and destruction. 7. No employee, officer or agent may participate in the selection, award or administration of a contract supported by a Federal award if he or she has a real or apparent conflict of interest. Such violations may result in appropriate discipline. See also the city policies on conflict of interest located in the city's Personnel Policies and Procedures. 8. The city will request prior approval from federal agencies for program or budget changes. 9. The city reserves the right to delay the implementation of new federal purchasing procedures by two years which follow: Acquisitions for micro -purchases (below $10,000 or below $2,000 for construction subject to the Davis Bacon Act) may be awarded without soliciting bids if the city considers the price to be reasonable. Procurements for Small Purchases (less than $175,000 - Minn. Stat. § 471.345), in which case quotations must be obtained from an adequate number of sources. Procurements made by sealed bid should be made to the lowest responsible (not necessarily the lowest) bidder. Procurements made by competitive proposal must have standards to evaluate the selected recipient. Procurement made by non-competitive proposals (to one vendor) may be used only if one of the following applies a) the item is available from a single source, b) an emergency exists c) the federal agency expressly authorizes non-competitive proposals, or d) competition is seen as inadequate after solicitation to a number of vendors. 10. Other procurement procedures include: Contractors who develop or draft specifications for bids are precluded from bidding on them. The city must maintain oversight so that contractors perform work as bid. Multiple provisions must be included in contracts (see Appendix II of grant procurement guidelines of super circular procedures). The city must verify to hLtp://www.sam.gov/ if contract is $25,000 or more to review if on the suspended and debarred list for federal grants. 11. Procedures for inventory of federal capital purchases will be maintained by the Finance Department, with the help of the Public Works Director, and all items will be tracked annually. 12. The Finance Director (or designee) or the City Administrator are required to certify expenditures. Purchasing and Procurement It is the policy of the city to ensure that all disbursements of city funds are properly reviewed and authorized, and consistent with sound financial management principles, and made in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws. In order to meet these objectives, all disbursements of city funds shall be subject to the following provisions, to the extent that they do not conflict with or contradict with any specific federal, state or local law or Council policies (the most specific or restrictive law, policy or procedure will be followed): 1. Substantial state and federal requirements exist pertaining to standards of conduct and conflict of interest. It is Page 3 the intent of the city for all employees, officers, or agents to conduct all activities associated with procurements in compliance with the highest ethical standards, including the avoidance of any real or perceived conflict of interest. It is also the intent of the city to impose appropriate sanctions or disciplinary actions, including but not limited to termination and/or prosecution, for any employees or officers who violate any of these requirements. 2. The city avoids the acquisition of unnecessary or duplicative items. Additionally, the city considers consolidating or breaking out procurements to obtain a more economical purchase. And, where appropriate, the city makes an analysis of leases versus purchase alternatives, and other appropriate analyses to determine the most economical approach. 3. To foster greater economy and efficiency, the city enters into state and local intergovernmental agreements where appropriate for procurement or use of common or shared goods and services. This includes cooperative purchasing agreements where practical and beneficial. Depending on the purchase requested, the city may purchase it from a cooperative or inter -local agreement if the price is competitive and the goods or service are needed in a timely manner. The Finance Director and the City Administrator will make this determination. 4. The city awards contracts only to responsible contractors possessing the ability to perform successfully under the terms and conditions of a proposed procurement. The city considers such matters as contractor integrity and business ethics, compliance with public policy, ability to complete the project on time and in accordance with specifications, record of past performance, and the contractor's financial and technical resources. 5. The city will award a contract to a contractor who has the appropriate experience, expertise, qualifications, and any required certifications, necessary to perform the work. Contractors should also have the financial resources to sustain the project while the initial work is being completed and during each service period until he or she submits invoices for payment to the city as work is completed. Contractors should have the proper equipment or the capability to subcontract for the proper equipment necessary to complete the contracted work. 6. Debarment and Suspension: The city will not subcontract with or award subgrants to any person or company who is debarred or suspended from receiving federal funds. The Finance Director, or designee thereof, is required to check for excluded parties at the System for Award Management (SAM) website before any procurement transaction paid with federal funds. This list is located at: http://www.samXgo /. 7. All procurement transactions paid with federal funds are conducted in a manner providing full and open competition. In an environment of full and open competition, no proposer or bidder has a competitive advantage over another. All potential proposers and bidders must be provided the same information and have the same opportunity to submit a bid or proposal. Providing a competitive advantage to one or more potential proposers or bidders over another can open up the potential for disputes and lawsuits that can be costly and can significantly delay the completion of projects. 8. In order to ensure objective contractor performance and eliminate unfair competitive advantage, contractorsthat develop or draft specifications, requirements, statements of work, or invitations for bids or requests for proposals (RFPs) are excluded from competing for such procurements. The city does not engage in the following situations that may restrict full and open competition, including but not limited to: • Placing unreasonable requirements on firms in order for them to qualify to do business. • Requiring unnecessary experience and excessive bonding. • Noncompetitive pricing practices between firms or between affiliated companies; • Noncompetitive contracts to consultants that are on retainer contracts. • Organizational conflicts of interest. • Specifying only a "brand name" product instead of allowing "an equal" product to be offered and describing the performance or other relevant requirements of the procurement. • Any arbitrary action in the procurement process. • The city conducts federal procurements in a manner that prohibits the use of statutorily or administratively imposed state or local geographical preferences in the evaluation of bids or proposals, except in those cases where applicable federal statutes expressly mandate or Page 4 encourage geographic preference. 9. All solicitations will incorporate a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements for the material, product, or service to be procured. Such description will not, in competitive procurements, contain features which unduly restrict competition. The description will include a statement of the qualitative nature of the material, product or service to be procured and, when necessary, will set forth those minimum essential characteristics and standards to which it must conform if it is to satisfy its intended use. Detailed product specifications will be avoided if at all possible. 10. The city will make independent estimates of the goods or services being procured before receiving bids or proposals to get an estimate of how much the goods and services are valued in the current market. To accomplish this, after bids and proposals are received, but before awarding a contract, the Cityconducts either a price analysis or a cost analysis, depending on the type of contract, in connection with every procurement with federal funds in excess of $175,000. 11. The city takes all necessary affirmative steps to assure that minority businesses and women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area firms are used when possible. To accomplish this, the City uses the following required affirmative steps: • Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation lists. • Assuring that small and minoritybusiness, and women's business enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources. • Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises. • Establishing delivery schedules, where the requirement permits, which encourageparticipation by small and minority businesses, and women's business enterprises. • Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of Commerce. • Requiring the prime contractor, if subcontracts are to be let, to take the affirmative steps listed above. 12. Federal methods provide for procurement by micro -purchase. Micro -purchase is a purchase of supplies or services using simplified acquisition procedures, the aggregate amount of which doesnot exceed $3,000. The micro -purchase method is used in order to expedite the completion of its lowest -dollar small purchase transactions and minimize the associated administrative burden and cost. 13. Small purchase procedures may be used in those relatively simple and informal procurement methods for securing nonprofessional services, supplies, or other property that do not cost more than $175,000. 14. Sealed bids ($175,000, formal advertising, price is a major factor). Requirements for sealed bids: • The invitation for bids will be publicly advertised and bids must be selected from anadequate number of known suppliers, providing them sufficient response time prior to the date set for opening the bids. • The invitation for bids, which will include any specifications and pertinent attachments, must define the items or services in order for the bidder to properly respond. • All bids will be publicly opened at the time and place prescribed in the invitation forbid. • A firm fixed price contract award will be made in writing to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. • Any or all bids may be rejected if there is a sound documented reason. • Competitive proposal (> $175,000, fixed price or cost reimbursement, request forproposal (RFP) with evaluation methods). Requirement for competitive proposal procedures: • Requests for proposals must be publicized requests and identify all evaluation factors andtheir relative importance. Page 5 • Proposals must be solicited from an adequate number of qualified sources. • The organization must have a written method for conducting technical evaluations ofthe proposals received and for selecting recipients. • Contracts must be awarded to the responsible firm whose proposal is most advantageous tothe program. • The organization may only use qualification -based methods, whereby competitors' qualifications are evaluated and the most qualified competitor is selected, in the procurementof architectural/engineering professional services. 15. Procurement by noncompetitive proposals is procurement through solicitation of a proposal from only one source and may be used when using federal funds only when one or more of the following circumstances apply: • The item is available only from a single source. This must be documented. • The public exigency or emergency for the requirement will not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation. • Any federal awarding agency expressly authorizes noncompetitive proposals in response to a written request from the city. • After solicitation of a number of sources, competition is determined inadequate. 16. Time and materials type contract means a contract whose cost to the city is the sum of the actual costs of materials, and direct labor hours charged at fixed hourly rates that reflect wages, general and administrative expenses, and profit. • The city may use a time and materials type contract paid with federal funds in accordance with the above only (1) after a determination that no other contract is suitable; and (2) if thecontract includes a ceiling price that the contractor exceeds at its own risk. 17. The city ensures that all prequalified lists of persons, firms, or products which are used in acquiring goods and services are current and include enough qualified sources to ensure maximum open and free competition. The city accomplishes this by conducting internet searches, including using vendor searches, and by using other less technologically -advanced tools to locate and identify potential contractors. Federal guidelines are followed regarding the number of bids required. 18. The city requires that construction or facility improvement contracts, or subcontracts exceeding $175,000, include a bid guarantee equivalent to 5% of the bid price from each bidder (such as bid bond or certified check), a performance bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price, and a payment bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. Payroll and Timekeeping The following provisions apply to the payment of employees and recording of time and effort (as required) in accordance with Federal Cost Principles: Hourly employees record time on a timesheet each day, with the following information: a. The total number of hours actually worked each day b. The use of any holiday, personal, vacation, sick, or other approved time off with pay c. The total number of hours to be paid d. An allocation of those hours to each program or department for which work was performed, whennecessary e. The dated signature of the employee and his/her supervisor for each payroll period The allocation of hours between programs or departments should be based exclusively on the actual hours worked, and not be based on available budgets, or predetermined allocation schedules. In the event that an after -the -fact correction is necessary to an employee's timesheet due to errors in the Page 6 allocation of time worked, such corrections must be submitted to the Accountant, and approved in writing by both the employee and his/her supervisor. 2. Salaried employees charged to a Federal grant will document time and effort as follows: the employee may document time and effort using a timesheet as described above. Timesheets must account for the total activity for which the employee is compensated and be signed by the employee. It will notbe acceptable for timesheets to include the hours worked on Federal grants only. a. It is the responsibility of the employee being charged to a Federal award(s) to clarify documentation requirements with the Finance Director or designee (Accountant) and provide appropriate documentation to the A as it becomes available. The employee should retain a copy of the documentation for his/her personal records. Certifications should never be signed prior to the end date of the payroll period being certified. Each certification should be provided to the Finance Department when available. Employees should retain a copy of the certifications for his/her personal records. Grant Administration The following policies and procedures will also be applied, to the extent that they do not conflict with or contradict any existing Council policies: 1. Grant Development, Application, and Approval — a. Legislative Approval — The point at which legislative approval is required is determined by the requirements of the grant program. If the grant must be submitted by "an individual authorized by the legislative body", then City Council approval is required prior to submitting the application. If such legislative approval is not specifically required by the written terms of the grant, then the City Administrator or designee may, at his or her discretion, approve grant applications. b. MatchingFunds unds — Grants that require cash local matches must be coordinated through the Finance Department. At a minimum, funds must be identified within the existing budget to provide the match, or a budget amendment will be required. Depending on the nature of the grant, there may also be some policy implications that will bear discussion. (For example, will the grant establish a level of service that cannot be sustained once the grant funds are depleted?) In all cases involving matching funds, the grant applicant should contact the Finance Department to determine the strategy for securing matching funds. Refer to the section within this manual titled "Matching, Level of Effort, and Earmarking" for additional information on compliance with the provisions of the OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance Compliance Supplement. C. Grant Budgets — Most grants require the submission of an expenditure budget. The Finance Director will review this portion of the grant request prior to submission. Frequently, a technical review will discover inconsistencies in the calculations, cost centers that might have been overlooked, or identifyreimbursable expenses of which program staff may not be aware —particularly in the area of indirect costs. 2. Grant Program Implementation — a. Notification and Acceptance of an Award —Official notification of a grant award is typically sent bya funding agency to the program director and/or other official designated in the original grant proposal. However, the authorization to actually spend grant funds is derived from the City Council through the approval of a grant budget. Such notification should also be directed to the Finance Department. Page 7 Adoption of the grant budget as a component of the city-wide operating budget is deemed to be sufficient approval. b. Establishment of Accounts — The department that obtained the grant will provide the Finance Director with information needed to establish revenue and expense accounts for the project, as well as a project code for tracking purposes. Ordinarily, this information will include a copy of a summary of the project and detail of the full project budget. c. Purchasing Guidelines — All other city purchasing guidelines apply to the expenditure of grant funds. The use of grant funds does not exempt any purchase from normal purchasing requirements. All typical paperwork and bidding requirements as well as normal staff approvals apply. When in doubt, the program director should contact the Finance Director for further assistance. 3. Financial and Budgetary Compliance — a. Monitoring Grant Funds — Departments may use some internal mechanism (such as a spreadsheet) to monitor grant revenues, expenditures and budgetary compliance, at the grant level. The Finance Director maintains all this information in financial software system as well; this is considered to be the city's "official" accounting system by the granting agencies. Program Directors are strongly encouraged to use financial software reports provided by the Finance Department for their grant tracking. If any "off -system" accounting records are maintained, it is the responsibility of the Program Director to ensure that the program's internal records agree to the city's accounting system. b. Fiscal Years — Occasionally, the fiscal year for the granting agency will not coincide with the city's fiscal year. This may require adjustments to the city's internal budget accounts and interim financial reports as well as special handling during fiscal year-end close. It is the responsibility of the Program Director to bring such discrepancies to the attention of the Finance Department at the time the grant accounts are established. c. Grant Budgets —The terms of each specific grant will dictate whether any budget transfers between budgeted line items will be permitted. In no case will the Program Director be authorized to exceed thetotal budget authority provided by the grant. If grant funds have not been totally expended by fiscal year-end, it is the responsibility of the Program Director to notify the Finance Director that budget funds need to be carried forward to the new fiscal year, and to confirm the amounts of such carry -forwards. Carry -forwards of grant funds will be subjected to maximum allowable amounts/percentages based on the grant award agreement and/or the OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance Compliance Supplement. Capital Assets — The city is responsible for maintaining an inventory of assets purchased with grant funds. The city is accountable for them and must make them physically available for inspection during any audit. The City Council must approve of any sale of these assets. Customarily, the proceeds of the sale can only be used on the grant program that purchased them. (Refer to the specific regulations governing the original grant). The Finance Director will coordinate this grant requirement. All transactions that involve the acquisition or disposal of grant funded capital assets must be immediately brought to the attention of the Finance Director. Refer to the city's separate Capital Assets policy and the section of this manual titled "Equipment and Real Property Management" for additional information. [OMB Circular A-133; 34 CFR Sec. 74.34] 4. Record Keeping — a. Audit Work -papers — The city's external auditors audit all grants at the end of each fiscal year. The Finance Director and Accountant will prepare the required audit work- papers. Program Directors may be asked to assist in this process, if necessary. b. Record Keeping Requirements —Grant record keeping requirements may vary substantially from one Page 8 granting agency to another. Consequently, a clear understanding of these grant requirements at the beginning of the grant process is vital. The Finance Department will maintain copies of all grant draw requests and approved grant agreements (including budgets). The Program Director should maintain all other records. 5. Other Guidelines —Specific information on policies and procedures related to compliance with the provisions of the OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance Compliance Supplement have been addressed later in this manual and should be considered along with the information in this section. Year-end Closing and Reporting The following provisions will govern the year-end close-out process of the city for purposes of external financial reporting: 1. To the extent that the city is required to have a single audit completed in accordance with OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance, the city will accumulate the information necessary to prepare a schedule of expenditures of federal awards ("SEFA") in accordance with Federal and State requirements. This schedule will be characterized as follows: a. The schedule will include all federal financial assistance, including: grants, contracts, property, loans, loan guarantees, interest subsidies, cooperative agreements, insurance or direct appropriations. Amounts will be reported whether received directly from the Federal government or through a pass - through agency (in the event that the city is determined to be a sub -recipient and not a vendor). b. The schedule will be prepared on the same basis of accounting as the related financial statements. c. Federal awards will be grouped based on Federal awarding agency. Each Federal award with current expenditures will be listed along with its CFDA number, pass -through grantor name (if applicable) and award/pass-through grantor number (if applicable). Such information will agree to the award documentation. d. If the CFDA number of a Federal award cannot be reasonably determined, it shall be reported inthe schedule using the two -digit prefix for the related Federal agency, followed by "UNKNOWN". e. To the extent that amounts are passed -through to sub -recipients, a schedule of federal awards provided to sub -recipients will be prepared. f. In addition to current year expenditures, the schedule will list approved award/grant amount, accrued/deferred revenue at the beginning of the year, current year cash received, current yearactual expenditures, and accrued/deferred revenue at the end of the year. If expenditures were incurred relative to this award in the prior year(s), this amount should be disclosed as memorandum -only. g. Any adjustments to prior year awards, expenditures, and balances (including transfersbetween grants) will be disclosed in the footnotes to the schedule. h. Accrued/deferred revenue in the schedule shall agree to the amounts recorded asreceivable/deferrals in the related financial statements. i. To the extent that a separate line item is included in the financial statements for Federal revenue, this amount shall agree to expenditures in the schedule. Any reconciling items will be disclosed in the footnotes to the schedule. Page 9 Additional Federal Awards Compliance Requirements A number of the Federal awards received by the city are passed -through the State of Minnesota. Management will consider both the OMB UGG - Uniform Grant Guidance Compliance Supplement and any applicable compliance requirements as set forth by the State of Minnesota. General Information Source of Information — Each year the Federal government (Office of Management and Budget) issues a comprehensive document on the compliance requirements each grant recipient is obligated to follow in general terms, along with program -specific guidance on various grant awards. There are 12 compliance requirements identified, each of which is considered individually in this manual. The following pages document the policies and procedures of the city related to compliance with such procedures, as applicable. In each year that the city is subject to a single audit, applicable compliance requirements are expected to be tested in detail by the city's independent auditors. Objectives — The objectives of most compliance requirements are generic in nature. While the criteria for each program may vary, the main objective of the compliance requirement is relatively consistent across all programs. As such, the policies and procedures of the city have been based on the generic sense of the compliance requirement. For selected compliance requirements, this manual addresses the specific regulations applicable to individual grants. This is not intended to imply that a program is not subject to such policies if it is not specifically mentioned here. It is the intention of the city that all Federal awards are subject to the following policies and procedures. Controls over Compliance — In addition to creating policies and procedures over compliance with provisions of Federal awards, the city has implemented internal controls over such compliance, generally in the form of administrative oversight and/or independent review and approval. In order to document these control activities, all independent reviews must be signed/initialed and dated. Documentation — The city will maintain adequate documentation to support both the compliance with applicable requirements as well as internal controls over such compliance. This documentation will be provided to the city's independent auditors and/or pass -through grantor agencies, as requested, during the single audit and program audits.

The outdoor storage area will be screened by an 8' tall wooden fence. Discussion: Caliber Companies, owner of Caliber Drywall and Donnelly Stucco, purchased 2832 Mounds View Boulevard (Tires N'More) in September, 2020. Caliber plans to remodel the building's interior and enclose the east side of the backyard facing CVS, with an 8' fence this fall, and renovate the exterior in 2021. Caliber plans to move its operations from south Minneapolis to Mounds View by December 1st Analysis: The property is zoned B-3 Highway Business. Permitted Uses include Limited Retail uses which have as the principal use, sales with warehousing or display secondary to that use.' The expectation is that the general public can enter the business during normal hours, and purchase a product (e.g. drywall or stucco supplies) or service (installation). Caliber Companies will have a product showroom and sales staff. Within the B-3 district, conditional uses include Open and outdoor storage as an accessory use.' Exterior storage must be screened from adjacent residential uses with either a sold fence, 6'— 8' in height; or a row of evergreen trees, a minimum of 8' in height.3 Exterior storage will consist of light -duty trucks, trailers (9' or less in height), and scaffolding. West of the property are single-family homes, screened by an existing 6' solid wooden fence on the subject property. On the adjacent residential properties, backyards are heavily wooded, providing additional screening. Staff recommends that the 6' fence be replaced by an 8' fence, because the outside storage will exceed 6' in height. History of 2832 Mounds View Boulevard: In 1965, the building was constructed for the PAK Company, and used as a warehouse. In 1967, the property was rezoned from R1A to B-3. In 1976, a Special Use Permit was approved for an indoor/outdoor tennis court facility at 2828 County Road 10 (behind the PAK building). In 2004, five parcels, including the PAK property and the adjacent Amoco gas station, were platted into two lots (Velmeir CVS Addition). In 2004, an ingress/egress easement was recorded across CVS and PAK properties for the benefit of both. Amoco was removed and redeveloped ' City Code, Section 1113.02, Subd 2 (Retail) 2 City Code, Section 1114.04, Subd 4 (Open and outdoor storage as an accessory use) 3 City Code, Section 1103.08, Subd 6 (Required Screening) Item 08A Page 2 of 9 into CVS Pharmacy (2005). In 2005, A Variance was approved for PAK to reduce the driveway setback, from 5' to 1' (Res. 810-05). Between 2004 and 2007, disputes occurred between representatives of the PAK property and Velmeir/CVS regarding drainage and easements. In 2005, the PAK building became vacant. City files include 2006-2009 history of parties interested in acquiring the PAK property, including; Anytime Fitness, a baseball/softball training facility; gun shop; thrift store; bike shop; computer repair; an Italian -American Club, restaurant; retail strip mall (with the Simons property), carpet store. PAK's representative was unresponsive to all inquiries. In 2011, the property entered foreclosure. In 2012, C & N Group, LLC (Tires N'More) purchased the property and obtained a CUP for Minor Auto Repair (Res 7984), with conditions of installing a 6' fence along the western property line, constructing a parking lot, and complying with the Fire Marshal's orders. In 2013, a Variance was approved allowing parking lot setbacks to be; front; 5'; east; 0' west front -half; 0' (Res 995-13). At that time, there was no driveway access along the east side of the Tires N'More building from front to back. Between 2012 and 2019, the City issued various violation orders related to tire storage and miscellaneous zoning violations. In 2019, the CUP was revoked, in part due to these violations (Res. 9108). Since 2016, parties interested in the property have included; indoor shooting range, concrete/asphalt contractor, used auto dealership, indoor playground/entertainment, Hmong cultural center, Liberian cultural center, auto accessory sales & installation, Bingo Hall, and a warehouse. In 2019, C & N Group inquired about redeveloping the property into apartments. Later that year, the property was listed for sale by the same realtor as Simons (2840 Mounds View Blvd) and the EDA property (7861 Groveland Road), in an effort to attract a joint -development. Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: Create and maintain a positive business climate where businesses want to locate and remain in Mounds View. Financial Impact: (none) Planning Commission Recommendation: The Planning Commission recommended approval of the CUP (Resolution 1122-20). Discussion occurred regarding screening, security, parking, and building improvements. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Council conduct a Public Hearing, and Approve Resolution 9317, approving a Conditional Use Permit for Open and Outdoor Storage. A Public Hearing Notice was published in the September 29, 2020 Shoreview Press, and mailed to property owners within 350' of the subject property. Staff has received no public comments.

Among other conditions, outside storage abutting a residential district must be screened; and, WHEREAS, the Mounds View City Code, Section 1103.08, Subd 6, related to required screening, requires a green belt planting strip at least 8' in height, or a solid fence not less than 6' in height. The subject property includes a 6' solid wooden fence along the western property line adjacent to residential properties, and a chain link fence along the southern property line adjacent to a storm water infiltration basin. The applicant proposes to enclose unfenced areas with an 8' solid wooden fence; and, WHEREAS, the Mounds View City Code, Section 1125.01, Subd 3(b) includes the Criteria for Granting Conditional Use Permits, stating; In granting a conditional use permit, the City Council shall consider the advice and recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission and the effect of the proposed use on the Comprehensive Plan and upon the health, safety and general welfare of occupants of surrounding lands. Among other things, the City Council shall make the following findings where applicable (Findings in Bold italics): The use will not create an excessive burden on existing parks, schools, streets and other public facilities and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the area. Finding: The Open and Outdoor Storage will have no impact to public facilities. 2. The use will be sufficiently compatible or separated by distance or screening from adjacent residentially zoned or used land so that existing homes will not be depreciated in value and there will be no deterrence to development of vacant land. Finding: The Open and Outdoor Storage will be adequately screened by an 8' solid wooden fence, except along the southern property line, which is adjacent to a wooded storm water infiltration brain. The Mounds View Vision A Thriving Desirable Community Item 08A Page 5 of 9 3. The structure and site shall have an appearance that will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent residential properties. Finding: The Open and Outdoor Storage area is currently screened from adjacent residential properties by a 6' solid wooden fence. Screening will be improved by a new 8' solid wooden fence. 4. The use, in the opinion of the City Council, is reasonably related to the overall needs of the City and to the existing land use. Finding: The building was built in 1965, primarily for use as a warehouse (PAK Company). The property has been underutilized as a warehouse without retail, for many years (Tires N'More). The proposed primary use for retail sales/service of construction materials with warehousing, and an accessory use of open and outdoor storage (Caliber Companies), is appropriate for this location, considering the existing building. The use is consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Code and the purposes of the zoning district in which the applicant intends to locate the proposed use. Finding: The proposed use (open and outdoor storage) is consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Code. 6. The use is not in conflict with the Comprehensive Plan of the City. Finding: The property is guided Mixed Use MU-PUD in the Comprehensive Plan (2010). Open and Outdoor Storage is not specifically addressed in the Comprehensive Plan, but relates to the following: General Land Use Goal 1: Maintain a cohesive land use pattern that ensures compatibility and functional relationships between activities and uses. Policy h. Transitions between distinctly differing types of land uses should not create a negative economic, social, or physical impact on adjoining developments. Policy k. Require and maintain buffering and visual separation between differing land uses, when possible. Policy 1. Strive for compatibility of adjacent land uses. Commerrial Goal 2: Provide safe, convenient, attractive, and accessible commercial development. Policy d. Ensure that all service, institutional and commercial uses are adequately screened and buffered from any existing or planned residential developments. Policy e. The City will require buffers such as screen plantings, fences, and public and semi-public use areas to help eliminate conflicts and disruptions between commercial land uses and activities and adjacent or nearby residential development. 7. The use will not cause traffic hazards or congestion. Finding: The proposed use (open and outdoor storage) will not significantly contribute to traffic hazards or congestion. The property includes two easements; (1) The Mounds View Vision A Thriving Desirable Community Item 08A Page 6 of 9 accessing Groveland Road; and (2) accessing Mounds View Boulevard; both crossing thru 2840 Mounds View Boulevard (Simons property). 8.

The Plan includes chapters on Land Use; Housing; Parks, Trails, and Community Facilities; Transportation; Water Resources; and Implementation. The Plan is updated every ten years, and reviewed by the Metropolitan Council for conformance with regional systems plans (Thrive MSP 2040). Discussion: The Draft Plan was submitted to the Metropolitan Council in December 2019, which responded with an incomplete letter. The Plan has been revised. Staff intended to re -submit the Plan to the Metropolitan Council after the City Council's October 12th meeting. However, Metcouncil Staff advised that there is a backlog of plans for review. Thus, Staff chose to submit the revised Plan on September 25th, ahead of the Planning Commission and City Council meetings. Prior to September 25th, a Public Hearing notice had been published for the Commission's October 7th meeting. The intent is for the Plan to be approved by the Metropolitan Council by the end of this year, in order to continue qualifying for affordable housing grants in 2021. In 2017, Boulevard Apartments received a $500,000 Livable Communities grant. A similar grant may be pursued for the former Skyline Motel site in 2021. Changes since December 2019 Submission: The Metcouncil's January incomplete letter addressed a number of minor errors and omissions in the Plan, and are included in the Council's packets. More substantial edits were made to the appendixes related to the wastewater and surface water plans. The Water Supply Plan is near complete, but not ready yet. Once completed, it will be submitted to the Metropolitan Council. Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: • Maintain and plan for infrastructure improvements including waste water, water, & transportation. • Increase community engagement while being sensitive to the changing demographics & their needs and inclusive to all socioeconomic situations. • Continue BR&E program, maximize utilization of development space and current list of available sites, encourage land owners to maintain their properties, & consider residential redevelopment. Financial Impact: The City Council has approved $99,441 to complete the Comprehensive Plan, with funds from Community Development, Sanitary Sewer, and Storm Water funds. Item 08B Page 2 of 4 Planning Commission Recommendation: The Planning Commission (Planning Agency) conducted a Public Hearing on October 7, 2020, recommending approval to submit the Plan, and for Staff to make any additional changes needed (Resolution 1123-20). There were no public comments submitted for the Public Hearing. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of Resolution 9318; approving submission of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan to the Metropolitan Council, and authorizing Staff to make any changes needed to the Plan.

The Draft Comprehensive Plan was revised, and resubmitted to the Metropolitan Council on September 25, 2020; and, WHEREAS, a Public Hearing notice was published in the September 15, 2020 Shoreview Press. The Planning Commission held a Public Hearing on October 7, 2020 to review the revised Draft Comprehensive Plan, recommending approval for submission (Resolution 1123-20); and, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, in consideration of the staff report, the revised Draft Comprehensive Plan, and public testimony, the Mounds View Planning and Zoning Commission recommendation, the City Council hereby approves of the revised Draft Comprehensive Plan for submission to the Metropolitan Council; and, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that City Staff and consultants shall make all changes that are necessary to the revised Draft Comprehensive Plan without The Mounds View Vision A Thriving Desirable Community Item 08B Page 4 of 4 formal review by the Planning Commission or City Council, to obtain approval from the Metropolitan Council.

Mueller, Mayor Attest: Nyle Zikmund, City Administrator (Seal) The Mounds View Vision A Thriving Desirable Community Response to Met Council Incomplete Letter Dated January 10, 2020 Transportation and Transit Comment Response Roadways Addressed by adding language about the The Plan must identify existing and future number of lanes on current and future number of lanes on (- principal and minor arterials. The Plan needs to include lane 35W, Highway 10, MV Blvd and Silver information (existing or future) on the two principal arterials, 1-35W Lake Road on page 5-3. Assumed no and US 10. The Plan must also acknowledge the addition of a change in number of lanes by 2040. Also MnPASS lane on 1-35W, which is included in the 2040 Transportation added a sentence about the MnPASS lane Policy Plan and is currently under construction. The Plan mentions in on 1-35W on the bottom of page 5-3. the text that there are four lanes on both minor arterials, Mounds View Boulevard and Silver Lake Road, and also needs to include the future number of lanes on either road. Council staff normally assume no future change from the existing number of lanes, but the Plan discusses in several places that the City would like to reduce the amount of right of way and desires a "revision" of Mounds View Boulevard, so it is unclear if this reduction means reducing the number of lanes. Transit Inserted description of Transit Link On page 5-9, there is no mention of Transit Link service. Reference service in proposed section on page 5-9 to Transit Link could be added in the following section on page 5-9 "In addition to the fixed route bus service, the Metropolitan Council operates Metro Mobility that provides door-to-door transportation service for people with disabilities. The Metropolitan Council provides other services through the Metro Commuter program. The City is expecting the Metropolitan Council to continue to provide mass transit, Metro Mobility, and Metro Commuter services in the future." TAZ Forecasts 2040 projected traffic volumes have been TAZ forecasts are included, but Council staff could not find any 2040 added to Figure 5-1 and are shown in traffic forecasts (the Plan does show existing traffic volumes in Fig 5- purple. 1). The Plan must include 2040 traffic forecasts.

The GIS map files need to identify the location of these intercommunity connection points and those areas within Mounds View that are served through a connection with the adjacent community. The Plan must include a copy of intercommunity service agreements As noted in Section 4.2, there is one entered into with an adjoining community, or language that active intercommunity service agreement confirms the Council's understanding that the communities with Fridley. The City is working on reimburse each other for the municipal wastewater charges that intercommunity service agreements with each will incur by receiving flow from the adjacent community, the other communities and will supply including a map of areas covered by the agreement. The Plan should them when they are executed. detail how the intercommunity connections are being billed for wastewater service. For example, identify if the intercommunity connections are billed by the community receiving the flow or if the Council needs to make an adjustment in the wastewater flow billing for the two communities. • The Plan needs to either include a copy of the agreements with the adjacent communities that outline the terms of the intercommunity wastewater service as it relates to reimbursement of treatment costs associated with wastewater, or the Plan needs to provide a narrative as to how these costs are adjusted for between the municipalities or if they rely on the Council to make these adjustments. The Metropolitan Council does not make any adjustments to Mounds View wastewater volume allocation for any intercommunity flow exchanges. The Plan must include a table or tables that provide the following local system information: • Capacity and design flows for existing trunk sewers and lift Appendix D provides design flows and stations. capacities for trunk sewers. Table 4-1 o For local sanitary sewer lines 12" and larger that connect to a provides design flows and capacities for Metropolitan Interceptor, provide the 2040 design flow and pipe lift stations. capacity for each connecting trunk sewer and lift station.

They are: M202 (Shamrock Lane & 69th Avenue), M203 (County Road H & East of Edgewood), M208 (Quincey & Hillview), and M212 (County I & St. Michael). The Plan needs to state the hydraulic capacity for each of the local gravity sewers that connect to the regional system at these locations, state the 2040 projected flow, and provide the breakdown of the 2040 household and employment forecasts that are anticipated to be served through these connections. Both the individual 2040 flow projections and 2040 growth forecasts need to reflect the totals referenced elsewhere in the Plan.

Forecasts Comment Response Development and Redevelopment Staging The Plan provides a proposed forecast revision in Table 1-1. Council staff and the City discussed this forecast revision in May 2019 and agreed to a forecast that matches that shown in Table 1-1 and shown below for reference (see table in incomplete letter) Chapter 2 of the Plan describes and inventories land supply for future development and redevelopment. The Plan identifies 87 acres Table 2-3 and Figure 2-3 have been that could be redeveloped during 2020-2040 (Table 2-3). Most of the adjusted to account for the forecast new housing capacity is associated with the supply of mixed use revision and this comment. Staging now residential land: 194 housing units are possible during 2020-2030 if accommodates the growth forecast for the identified sites are fully redeveloped with mixed use residential the 2020-2030 decade. projects; an additional 363 housing units are possible during 2030- 2040 (Table 2-3). This staging does not accommodate the growth forecast for the 2020-2030 decade (220 additional households during 2020-2030). Council staff advise either adjusting the land use staging expectations to allow more housing by 2030; or requesting a slightly lower 2030 household and population forecast. Affordable Housing Need Table 3-7 has been revised as suggested. With this forecast revision, the 2021-2030 Affordable Housing Need for Mounds View is revised. The new 2021-2030 Affordable Housing Need numbers are: 27 units at <=30% AMI, 11 units at 31-50% AMI; 21 units at 51-80% AMI; 59 units total. The information in Table 3-7 is obsolete and must be revised. TAZ Forecasts TAZ forecasts in Table 5-2 have been The Council requires 2020, 2030, and 2040 forecasts assigned adjusted to match the community -wide transportation analysis zones, or portions of TAZs within the City forecast. boundaries. Further, the Council requires the column totals to match the communitywide forecast, as revised in Table 1-1. Table 5-2 presents TAZ allocations that are significantly in error. Employment is over -allocated by 1,100 to 1,200 jobs; the numbers must be reduced to match the communitywide total employment. Population and households are under -allocated; the numbers must be increased to match the communitywide totals. Sewer -serviced Forecast Table 6-1 has been updated to reflect the The Council requires a sewer -serviced forecast and expects that the City -proposed forecast in table 1-1. entire community is sewer -serviced. A sewer -serviced forecast table Further information is included in the appears as Table 6-1, but the table includes the obsolete forecast Comprehensive Sewer Plan in the from the System Statement. This table must be updated to reflect Appendix. the City -proposed forecast in Table 1-1. Land Use Comment Response Future Land Use The Plan must define each land use category shown on the Future Land Use Map. • Not all of the land uses shown in Figure 2-2, Future Land Use Map, Public/semi-public and parks/open space on page 2-12, are defined on pages 2-7 to 2-10. For instance, are now defined on page 2-10. public/semi-public and parks/open space land uses are not defined. *The residential land use categories shown in Figure 2-2 are not specifically defined on pages 2-7 to 2-10. The housing types Clarity added to Plan on page 2-7 and 2-8. permitted within these land use categories need to be clearly Individual definitions for each residential detailed. For instance, provide clarity on housing types permitted in land use are now included along with the Multi -family Residential land use category. density expectation. • In Figure 2-2, Utility is a land use category, and needs to be defined on pages 2-7 to 2-10. Utility is now defined on page 2-10 Land use categories must be used consistently throughout the Plan. •Industrial land use is defined on page 2-9 and included in Table 2-2, Future Land Use. However, Figure 2-2, Future Land Use Map, on Light Industrial label in Figure 2-2 has page 2-12, shows Light Industrial land use, which is inconsistent with been changed to Industrial to match with other portions of the land use chapter. the rest of the Plan. • Table 2-2 shows Single Family Residential land use, and the table needs to include Single Family Attached land use because it is Single -Family Attached land use has been identified as a discreet land use on page 2-7. included in Table 2-2. •On page 2-9, the Plan states "The City anticipates that Mixed Use districts will be redeveloped at 60% residential and 40% commercial This reference to High Density Residential with the residential portions matching the density minimums and has been removed from the Plan. maximums of the High -Density Residential designation." However, there is no High -Density Residential designation described elsewhere in the Plan. The Plan needs to either be amended to include this land use, or this reference to High -Density Residential needs to be removed. Density Calculations The Mixed Use (MU) land use category includes an expectation that A notation has been added to Table 2-3 60% of these acres will be developed with a residential use. Detail stating that the mixed use acres needs to be added to clarify Table 2-3 to state that the acreages represent the 60% expected residential shown for MU are the 60% residential development expectation of development. the total development acres. For instance, the MU acres for 2021- 2030 are shown in Table 2-3 as 11.2 acres, which suggests that the total development acres for that decade is 18.62 acres. This detail can be added with an additional 'total acres' table column, a notation for the table, or within the narrative. The Affordable Housing Need Allocation number is incorrect within The Affordable Housing Allocation the Housing chapter of the Plan. The information depicted in the number has been changed within the Housing chapter does not take account of the forecast revision, housing chapter on page 3-6 to be which changes the Affordable Housing Need Allocation number. consistent with the forecast revision. Please revise this information based on the Housing comments below. Future Land Use maps used elsewhere in the Plan need to be Figures 4-1 and 5-3 have been updated to consistent with Figure 2-2, Future Land Use Map, on page 2-12. For be consistent with Future Land Use instance, Figure 4-1, Publicly Owned- Properties, shows land uses shown in Figure 2-2. not detailed in Figure 2-2. Figure 5-3, Existing Transit System also appears to be inconsistent with Figure 2-2. Advisory All MF and MU references have been The shorthand for the Mixed Use land use category is variously amended to clarify the correct land use - shown as MU or MF. This inconsistency should be amended for Multi -Family or Mixed Use clarity. Surface Water Management Comment Response Mounds View is located within the oversight boundaries of the Rice Most recent LSWMP has been added to Creek Watershed District. The City submitted a draft Local Water this Plan as an Appendix. This version was Management Plan (LWMP) update to the Council in March 2019. last updated 9.14.2020 and responds to Council Water Resources staff reviewed and commented on the the second round of RCWD comments. draft LWMP to the City and Watershed in a letter dated April 22, 2019. The Plan indicates on page 6-2 in the Surface Water Management section of Water Resources Chapter 6 that a full copy of the LWMP will be included as an Appendix to the Plan when complete following review by the Rice Creek Watershed District. *To be considered complete for review, the City needs to submit a Comprehensive Plan that incorporates the most recent draft LWMP update that is currently under review by the District. The final Plan that the City adopts will need to include the final LWMP that the Watershed had approved, but for our review purposes at this time, the most recent draft LWMP will be sufficient. Special Resource Protection Comment Response Historic Preservation A policy addressing historic sites has been All plans must include a protection element for historic sites. Page 2- added under goal 3 on page 2-3, and 18 states, "There are no historically significant or potential additional language regarding historic historically significant sites in Mounds View. Therefore, there is not a preservation added on page 2-18. need for any special measures to ensure the protection of historically significant properties. The City will consider this potential issue during the normal development review process." The Plan must provide a policy or protection element for historic sites. On page 2-12, the Plan makes reference to the need for restoration of the historic and iconic Mermaid Statue, yet there are no policy provisions or protection element in the Plan for historic sites. Housing Comment Response Projected Housing Need Affordable Housing Need Allocation The Plan needs to include the correct local Affordable Housing Need numbers hace been updated to reflect Allocation (Need). The correct Need, provided to the City at the time the forecast change. of a forecast change in spring of 2019, is 27 units affordable at or below 30% of area median income (AMI), 11 units affordable between 31 and 50% AMI, and 21 units affordable between 51 and 80% AMI, for a total of 59. For the Plan to be consistent with Council housing policy, please note that enough land must be guided for the 2021-2030 timeframe to meet the City's Need. Implementation Plan Language has been added on page 3-9 to The Plan must consider the use of all widely accepted housing tools describe when the identified housing to be considered consistent with Council housing policy, including tools would be used by the City to meet when such tools would be used. The following tools are included in their housing needs. the Plan, but the Plan does not include information about if or when such tools would be used by the City to meet their housing needs: o Fair Housing Policy o Participation in housing -related organizations, partnerships, and initiatives o Zoning and subdivision ordinances o Preservation of LI HTC properties o Housing Improvement Areas (HIAs) o Tools that preserve private unsubsidized affordable housing (NOAH Impact Fund, MN Housing, 4(d) tax incentives) Please note that all tools added to the Plan that the City plans to use or will consider for use must be connected to housing needs for the Plan to be found consistent with Council housing policy.

In the City's opinion, Gentrafication is not likely to occur pre-2040, therefore, it is more likely that as NOLA multi -family housing ownership changes, new owners are unlikely to make drastic changes such that units are no longer affordable. Rather than preserving NOLA, the City- County-ISD 621 should be partnering with others to address underlying poverty causes.

The plan has been updated in 1975, 1979, 1998, and 2008. Though it is written in response to a legislative mandate, the City recognizes that comprehensive planning — including goals, policies, and actions — is a continuous process to support the livability of the Mounds View Community. Comprehensive Plan updates must respond to changing conditions, both internal to Mounds View and external. Updating the Comprehensive Plan provides an opportunity to review Mounds View's development related goals and policies to ensure growth that is managed and orderly through the year 2040. The Comprehensive Plan update must also respond to regional system statements that affect the City as outlined in the Metropolitan Council's regional framework: Thrive MSP 2040.' Although the emphasis is on land use, the Comprehensive Plan includes several interrelated elements that are critical to the growth of the city. Included in this plan: Chapter 1: Background Chapter 2: Land Use Chapter 3: Housing Chapter 4: Parks, Trails, and Community Facilities Chapter 5: Transportation Chapter 6: Water Resources Chapter 7: Implementation To ensure the integration of these various elements, the 2040 Comprehensive Plan identifies current issues for the City to consider as part of the planning process and sets broadly defined goals and policies for the community. The Mounds View Comprehensive Plan is a policy document. The term `policy' reflects the flexibility that the City requires in the application of the plan. This document is an expression of the City's social and economic values. Residents, developers, and city officials should use each element of the comprehensive plan as a guide for development and redevelopment through the year 2040. The plan should be viewed not as a hard and fast graphic layout of the city. Nor should one view the goals and policies, as presented in written form, as ordinances or law. These are guidelines that the City and individuals must review and apply individually and collectively to each proposed development, improvement, or decision. Text and Footnotes with the Metropolitan Council logo address the Checklist of Minimum Requirements for Mounds View. AM MOMD-S VIEW Lrj'T- Figure 1-1: Mounds View Comprehensive Plan, Land Use Map (1979) Chapter 1: Background 1 1-1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 The plan is also long-range by definition, covering a period of at least 20 years into the future. Since it is difficult for the City to predict the changes that may occur during that period, the plan will need to be updated on a periodic basis. PURPOSE The purpose of the Comprehensive Plan is to help the public and private sectors develop productive physical, social, and economic environments. To this end, the 2040 Comprehensive Plan will accomplish the following: • Guide future development and redevelopment in an orderly manner • Define the proper functional relationships between different types of land uses • Help coordinate public and private sector decisions • Encourage orderliness and economy in City government • Inspire expression of the city's unique identity The goals and policies contained in the following chapters form the basic and fundamental plan for the city. In this regard, they serve two functions. First and foremost, they guide public and private actions and development within the city. In addition to this active function, they also serve the more passive function of establishing evaluation criteria for the development and change that subsequently occurs. Policies are collective in nature. Although a single policy may define a decision or course of action, it is more likely that several policies jointly apply to a given situation. The City must approach and use the Comprehensive Plan with this understanding. To ensure proper understanding and clarification, the City defines the following terms as noted: Goals: The desired end products that will ultimately result in achieving the kinds of living, working, and recreational areas that are desired and that are in accord with accepted policies and standards. Policies: The means of achieving established goals. Policies involve a general course of conduct. They are goals translated into legislative action. Planning decisions not only have an impact on land use, but also affect the provisions of public services and facilities. The ability to provide services and facilities in an efficient manner is one of the responsibilities of local government. Through this process, cities can determine the current and future services that will be necessary to meet the needs and demands of its many constituents.

Chapter 1: Background 1 1-2 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 PLANNING PROCESS The City Council appointed a Comprehensive Plan Taskforce consisting of representatives of the City Council, Planning and Zoning Commission, Parks, Recreation, and Forestry Commission, Economic Development Commission, and at -large residents. The Taskforce was facilitated by City Staff and Stantec. The City requested and was granted an extension by the Metropolitan Council to complete this plan, allowing additional time to focus on topics beyond the minimum requirements. A community opinion survey was distributed in the April 2018 Utility Bills, spring 2018 edition of Mounds View Matters, and on the City's website. The survey included 15 questions on various subjects related to the Comprehensive Plan. The City received 845 responses, equivalent to 7% of the population. The results of this survey served as a guide in supporting the Goals and Policies of this Comprehensive Plan, and have provided the City Council, its advisory commissions, and staff with guidance on the residents' priorities. Excerpts of the survey responses are included in the sidebars of this plan, and within the text when applicable. The Comprehensive Taskforce met intermittently in 2018 and 2019, reviewing and discussing Census data, Goals and Policies, Future Land Use Map, and results of the community opinion survey. On April 23, 2019, a joint -work session was held between the Taskforce, City Council, Economic Development Commission, Parks, Recreation, & Forestry Commission, and Planning & Zoning Commission. The group reviewed the Future Land Use Map, and Goals and Policies. Recommendations were reviewed by the City Council on May 13, 2019. The Draft Comprehensive Plan was distributed to affected jurisdictions (listed below) in May, 2019. Comments received and responses are included in the Appendix. • City of Arden Hills • City of Blaine • City of Fridley • City of New Brighton • City of Shoreview • City of Spring Lake Park • Anoka County • Ramsey County • Ramsey County (regional park implementing agency) • Mounds View School District, ISD 621 • Coon Creek Watershed District • Rice Creek Watershed District • Minnesota Department of Transportation • Minnesota Department of Natural Resources • Metropolitan Airports Commission AM MOUMD-S ViEvv Figure 1-3: Taskforce Ice Breaker Green: Where do you live? Blue: What, or where is the focal point of your neighborhood? Yellow: Where is your favorite place in Mounds View and why (excluding your home)? Red: If you could change one thing, where/what would it be? Focal points of neighborhoods included parks, schools, and intersections. Favorite places included the Ramsey County Library, parks, schools, RJ Riches, and Caribou. One thing to change included, Mounds View Boulevard and vacant businesses along that boulevard. Chapter 1: Background 1 1-3 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 In addition to the April 2018 public opinion survey, public participation included an open house conducted during the Annual Town Hall Meeting, held April 30, 2018 and April 15, 2019. The City Council conducted a Public Hearing on December 9, 2019, reviewing the Draft Comprehensive Plan, directing Staff to forward the Draft onto the Metropolitan Council (Resolution 9195). AM MOUND15 VIEW TCAAP The Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) was located on 2,370 acres in Arden Hills, adjacent to Mounds View. TCAAP was established in 1941, and decommissioned during the early 2000's. At its height, it employed 26,000 workers. In 2013, Ramsey County purchased 427 acres for "Rice Creek Commons", a planned mixed -use redevelopment. Though its future is still unknown, Rice Creek Commons could be home to around 4,000 residents, in about 270-520 single-family homes, 240-360 townhomes, and 180-240 multi -family units. Rice Creek Commons could additionally accommodate 159 acres of commercial, retail, office and flex space (extrapolated from Arden Hills Comprehensive Plan, Table 6.3 and 7.3). As the project develops, there will likely be residential redevelopment within proximity of the Mounds View Boulevard and County Road H intersection. This area currently consists of a mix of entertainment, hospitality, and service -oriented businesses. There will be additional demand for such land uses not permitted within Rice Creek Commons, such as auto dealers, warehousing, and other uses requiring outside storage. Mounds View will also benefit as an affordable alternative to the higher -end homes planned in Arden Hills. Mounds View neighborhoods will have a closer proximity to TCAAP attractions than many Arden Hills and Shoreview neighborhoods. Additionally, Ramsey County plans major improvements to the Rice Creek North Regional Trail, creating a major regional recreational designation for cross country skiing, single-track mountain biking, and canoeing. Chapter 1: Background 1 1-4 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 CITY BACKGROUND Mounds View is located in the northwest corner of Ramsey County and is adjacent to Anoka County. It is neighbored by the cities of Blaine, Shoreview, Arden Hills, New Brighton, Fridley, and Spring Lake Park. Mounds View lies north and west of a large range of lakes and Rice Creek which drains into the Mississippi River, about 7'/z miles to the west. The City is bordered by US Highway 10 to the north, and Interstate 35W to the east, supporting travel to Minneapolis and St. Paul, Duluth, and St. Cloud. Mounds View Boulevard (formerly the Anoka Cutoff, Trunk Highway 10, and County Road 10) runs diagonally through the City and defines the character of the community. The Boulevard is a four -lane divided highway with a mix of uses, from single-family residential to office -warehouse and auto -oriented retail. The Boulevard has always been auto dependent. After the Trunk Highway (TH) 610 bridge was completed across the Mississippi River in 1999, the average daily traffic (ADT) on the Boulevard declined from 43,000 ADT to 21,000 ADT in 2015. With this decline, many auto -dependent businesses moved, leaving many commercial buildings empty and properties blighted. This challenge, addressing appearance and redevelopment of the Boulevard, is a reoccurring topic throughout this plan. HISTORY Mounds View Township consisted of the northwest quadrant of Ramsey County, including present-day Mounds View, Arden Hills, New Brighton, Shoreview, and portions of Blaine, North Oaks, Spring Lake Park, and St. Anthony Village. The center of commerce was Irondale (present-day New Brighton). The first elections of the Mounds View Township were held in May of 1858. The township was 23,040 acres in size. Its name is in reference to the significant mounds on the present-day Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) and Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS) and could be seen from much of Ramsey and Anoka counties. The largest of the mounds were mined for gravel to develop TCAAP and expand roads. In 1891, New Brighton became the first village in the township to incorporate, followed by Arden Hills (1951), North Oaks (1956), Spring Lake Park, Blaine, St. Anthony Village and Shoreview (1957). Delegates from the remaining four -square miles of the township sought for the area to become part of New Brighton but their efforts were denied. Instead, the Village of Mounds View was incorporated on April 2, 1958 (57% voter approval) with a population of 5,738. In accordance with state law, the Village of Mounds View became the City of Mounds View on January 1, 1974. I Figure 1-4: Ramsey County, 1874 (Mounds View Township outlined in red) Chapter 1: Background 1 1-5 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 The now defunct Village established the first Planning Commission in 1959 and completed the first Comprehensive Plan for Mounds View that same year. The City adopted a revised comprehensive plan in 1976 in accordance with the Metropolitan Land Planning Act passed by the Minnesota legislature. Mounds View adopted the previous Comprehensive Plan in 2010. SUBURBAN DESIGNATION In Thrive MSP 2040, the Metropolitan Council has designated Mounds View as a "Suburban" community. Suburban communities are those that saw peak development periods as baby boomers formed families and built homes. Figure 1-5 and Figure 1-6 show Mounds View and surrounding cities, color coded by specific community designations. The Council sets an overall density expectation for development and redevelopment within Suburban communities at 5 units per acre. 1 ti • � � ffp j -RAMS E� -P6 i I i MSHINGTON RV Eft 4-S COTT DAK0 TA - Figure 1-6: Suburban community designation, within the regional context 2 "Little Mounds View" included about 300 acres in the southwest corner of the township, mostly owned by the Salvation Army.

The city continues to face land use challenges of a developed suburban community. This section responds to those challenges in a manner that encourages growth and supports a high quality of life. The intent of the Mounds View Land Use element is to describe the overall land use patterns throughout the city and how it relates to the city's future needs. State statutes and Metropolitan Council guidelines require specific elements be addressed in the plan. Thrive MSP 2040, adopted by the Metropolitan Council, has designated Mounds View as a "Suburban" community — one that was primarily developed in the 1980's and into the 1990's as Baby Boomers established homes. In May 2014, the Metropolitan Council estimated that Suburban communities will grow by 159,000 residents, 76,000 households, and 161,000 jobs between 2010 and 2040. This represents growth of 22% in population, 27% in households, and 43% in jobs, regionally. The City of Mounds View intends for this plan to guide development and redevelopment within the city to achieve the stated goals and policies for balanced and efficient land use. Most of the development activity will occur through redevelopment. The City anticipates that most opportunities for redevelopment will occur along the Mounds View Boulevard corridor. As such, much of the corridor is guided for Mixed -Use, with the intent of allowing flexibility of residential and/or commercial redevelopment, at varying densities. The Metropolitan Council encourages growth to occur around new and existing activity centers. This type of land use can create places for people to gather with a mix of retail, higher density residential, parks, and institutional spaces. If properly integrated with the community, these places also help people move around by foot, bicycle, transit, and other modes while diminishing the dependence on the automobile. The City's land use policies and strategies reflect this regional strategy. AM MOUNDS VIEW Neighborhood Meeting held for proposed Crossroad Pointe apartments, and Heartland Gun Club & Range (Sept 21, 2017). The project evolved into the 128-unit Gray Stone Flats, at Mounds View Boulevard and County Road H2, opening fall, 2021. Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 LAND USE PLAN PURPOSE The land use plan is interrelated with all other elements, goals, and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan. The purpose of the land use element is to designate the type, location, and density of land uses in Mounds View. In doing so, the City will consider the following: • City goals and policies • Natural resources • Supportive elements, such as transportation, utilities, and drainage • Existing and future problems • Coordination with surrounding cities and metropolitan systems and facilities LAND USE GOALS AND POLICIES The City has developed land use goals and policies which function as the foundation of the plan as they define what the city should look like in the future. Mounds View has based the future land use plan on these goals and policies. The following are the land use goals and policies for Mounds View: Goal 1: Stabilize and strengthen neighborhoods • Establish and preserve neighborhood character through public investments identified in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) • Stabilize neighborhoods through citizen -initiated and proactive zoning code enforcement. • Require impact studies to be completed when considering developments which may significantly affect a surrounding neighborhood. • Ensure redevelopment complements adjacent land uses and character. When considering development, preserve vegetative buffers between different land uses when possible and establish vegetative buffers when none exist. Goal 2: Enhance the appearance of properties along Mounds View Boulevard and establish a physical focal center for the city. • Conduct proactive code enforcement of properties along the Mounds View Blvd corridor. • Complete pedestrian trails with connections to trail systems in adjacent communities. • Create a place that represents a unique and attractive destination • Ensure redevelopment and landscaping along the Mounds View Boulevard Corridor enhances the corridor's urbanizing character while maintaining physical buffers from the motoring public. • Develop a model for mixed -use districts along Mounds View Boulevard. MOUNDS VIEW Opinion Survey The top three factors residents like most about Mounds View are (1) access to highways; (2, tied) schools; and neighborhood or my neighbors; and (3) my house. Survey respondents commented about the city's large wooded lots, quiet neighborhoods, and proximity to services and amenities. General comments about what respondents liked most about Mounds View: 'Proximity to needed services & businesses". 'Proximity to Unity Hospital and Cub". "Old trees, large lots. 1 like the variety of dwellings. This is not cookie -cutter suburbia. " "Compost and organics recycling". "Large lots for a close suburb". "New roads". "Location close to town but yet not too far north". "People need to be able to get around when they have no car, - the walking and bike paths are great to have. Thank you". Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-2 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Goal 3: Strategically invest in redevelopment opportunities. • Continue Business Retention & Expansion (BR&E) efforts through conducting BR&E visits, and promotion of Mounds View businesses. • Identify sites deemed blighted or detracting from the city's character for potential fagade improvements. • When reviewing proposals to redevelop historically or culturally significant buildings or sites, consider how these icons can be repurposed or preserved as an alternative to their removal. Examples include homes or businesses built before 1940 (consider remodel & expansion before removal & replacing), and the Mermaid statue (consider public subsidies for restoration). • Include large parking lots in discussions related to potential redevelopment of underutilized lands. • Map opportunities to assemble properties. • Encourage affordable housing in redevelopment. • Meet the City's goals of creating livable wage jobs on redeveloped sites. • Support new industrial businesses. Goal 4: Encourage resident participation and active citizenship within the community. • Provide accurate, complete, and timely communications with the public through official notices and social media. Goal 5: Amend the Future Land Use Map and/or Zoning Map to support changes when found that the proposed designation will not significantly create adverse impacts to the surrounding neighborhood or community. • Require supporting documentation for land use and zoning changes. • Update the zoning code to conform to the Future Land Use plan. EXISTING LAND USE There is a variety of land use throughout Mounds View from parks and single- family residential neighborhoods to commercial and industrial nodes. The city consists mostly of single-family residential neighborhoods with most other uses (e.g. multi -family, commercial, and industrial uses) clustered along and around Mounds View Boulevard. Small parks and churches are scattered throughout the quiet residential neighborhoods. The largest parks are generally closer to multi -family residential, manufactured housing parks, and commercial areas. The industrial areas are clustered around freeway access - points. MOUNDS VIEW Opinion Survey General comments about what respondents liked the least about Mounds View: "Nothing to draw outsiders, lack of restaurants or central shopping." "Could be more walkable destinations for families." "Mounds View is not a destination city. It is a city that commuters want to travel through, as quickly as possible, to get to their jobs in other cities. Mounds View does not do a good job of managing this traffic." "Lack of community center/"downtown" area for shopping. No stores and lots of vacant old buildings, dining, gathering. " "Mounds View is thoroughly bland, uninteresting, poorly landscaped, uninspired, and the government seems uninterested in making it a "home town". It has zero character— it's just another place. "... "Mounds View Boulevard appears quite unkempt both the land and businesses. Next, landlords should be made more responsible for upkeep of their properties. Finally, if we're building more apartments, gear them toward a more upscale population. Mounds View has enough low income housing." "Lack of grocery and retail. Lack of quality shopping choices. Overabundance of affordable housing. " Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-3 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 RESIDENTIAL Most of the land in Mounds View is used for single-family homes. The vast majority of homes were built in the latter half of the twentieth century. Scattered throughout these tree -lined neighborhoods are small neighborhood parks, churches, and a few schools. COMMERCIAL At the center of the city and along Mounds View Boulevard are lands with a wider variety of uses — from multi -family housing to commercial strip malls and City Hall. Mounds View Boulevard is generally lined by commercial and office uses, with multi -family, institutional, and industrial uses just off the Boulevard and indirectly connected. Certain uses function as effective buffers between the busy corridor and the quiet residential streets — including Silver View Park and various multi -family housing developments. INDUSTRIAL The area around the interchange of Mounds View Boulevard and Interstate- 35W is the primary industrial area of the city. Retail and other commercial uses work to provide an entrance to the city from the southeast at Mounds View Boulevard and Old Hwy 8, but surrounding that area are a large number of parcels used primarily for industrial purposes. A second industrial area is on the far north edge of Mound View, bisected by US Highway 10 from the rest of the city. This area is unique from the larger industrial area previously mentioned because it hosts one large distribution center. It is also accessed directly from County Road J on the edge of Mounds View. Little traffic that is related to this use is expected through Mounds View. MANUFACTURED HOUSING PARKS The manufactured housing parks in Mounds View are also situated near 1-35W — though freeways may not function as an amenity for this use. One manufactured housing park is situated between a freeway, an industrial area, and a large park. The two others are lined by freeways on at least one side and multi -family housing or duplexes on the others. Towns Edge Terrace AM MOMD-S ViEvv Manufactured Homes Mounds View is home to three manufactured housing parks, with a combined 561 homes (11 % of households). The parks were established during the 1960's and are privately owned. They are licensed and inspected annually by Ramsey County Public Health.

Updates to the land use map are more detailed and less radical in nature. Updates to the future land use plan include: • Consolidation of land use guide categories • Development of the definition, and expansion of Mixed -Use districts Because Mounds View is developed from edge -to -edge, new land uses will occur through redevelopment. No significant impacts to infrastructure or a need for additional services provided by the City — including sewage flow — are expected as a result of population growth. RESIDENTIAL This comprehensive plan update comes with a simplified list of residential land use categories compared to the previous update. The purpose of this simplification is for easier compatibility of the zoning code and realization of the City's vision. The 2030 Update had four residential categories: single-family, detached; single family, attached; Multi -family; and Manufactured Housing Park. Each of those categories was compatible with numerous zoning categories which stifled the ability of the Comprehensive Plan to guide toward a defined vision. The 2040 Update simplifies the guide categories and establishes a clearer path for the application of the zoning code. The new designations are as follows: Single -Family Attached (SFA) includes single family residential units which are attached to each other. Examples include two-family dwellings, three- family dwellings or townhomes. The density limits within this category are between 1 to 5 units per acre.' Single -Family Detached (SFD) includes standalone single family residential buildings with only one unit. Examples include single0family dwellings and platted lots. The density limits within this category are between 1 to 5 units per acre. Multi -Family Residential (MF) includes land with one or more buildings and three or more dwelling units which are attached to each other. Examples Alm MOUNDS VIEW New Neighbors Mounds View Township was settled in the early 1940's with small homes built on large wooded lots along dirt roads. When regional sewer was extended into town in the 1960's, many of these large lots were re -platted. As time passed, many of the original 1940's homes have aged poorly. For those still on larger lots, if the property value was less than the retail value of two lots minus home demolition costs (e.g. less than $180,000), the large lot becomes a target for developers as a tear -down and re -plat. In Mounds View, there are about two or three teardowns per year, often including subdividing the large lot into two. There are only a handful of these large lots left, which can be subdivided, and still meet the minimum lot dimensions required in the Zoning Code. CIS ELIN MARCO GPOUP 76j.226. l31 �r ALors ' In R-1 zoning district (2018), the minimum lot size is 11,000 sf (12,500 sf if corner lot). Subtracting ROW, the density = 2.83 units per acre. In R-2 district (e.g. two-family Red Oak Drive townhomes), the density = 5 units per acre. Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-7 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 include fourplexes, apartments, cooperatives and condominiums. Density expectations for this category are from 5 to 15 units per acre.2 Manufactured Housing Park includes land under single ownership that has been planned and improved for the placement of mobile/manufactured housing for dwelling purposes. Also includes land that has been planned, improved and subdivided for the placement of mobile/manufactured housing for dwelling purposes. The density expectation for this category is from 1 to 8 units per acre.' COMMERCIAL ZZ The commercial guide designations have been streamlined. The previous 2030 Update included four commercial designations and one commercial planned unit development (PUD) designation. This 2040 Update includes two commercial designations and one office designation. Neighborhood Commercial is intended for those commercial uses which are compatible within a residential neighborhood. Historically, retail businesses in these locations have struggled, and many of them sit vacant or have uses such as offices, which are not location dependent. General Commercial is intended for retail and service businesses, often which are auto dependent. Examples may include retail, restaurants, entertainment, and gas stations. This category is a consolidation of the 2030 Plan's Community Commercial, Regional Commercial PUD, and Highway Commercial. Office is intended for offices and ancillary uses. An example is the Medtronic complex, consisting of offices, laboratories, daycares, and other services intended for those office employees. In R-3 zoning district (e.g. 4+ unit townhomes) (2018), the density = 10.6 units per acre (e.g. Pleasant View Townhomes, SW corner of Mounds View Blvd & Groveland Rd). ' There are three manufactured housing parks. Colonel Village is 7.66 units per acre; Mounds View Manufactured Home Park is 7.78 units per acre, and Townsedge Terrace Manufactured Home Park is 6.92 units per acre. MOMD-S VIEW The Corner Store As neighborhoods grew, retail grocery and convenience stores have come and gone: • Simon's Market (1946—mid 1980 ) • B & R Groceries (1958— 1972) • Fedor's (1961— 2016) • Unknown name (?— 1965) • Tom Thumb / Sam's Food Market / Snap Market (1973— 2016) • Penny's Market / Country Club (1974 — 1992) • 7 Eleven / Super America (1973 — 1992) • Walgreens (2001 — present) • Snyder's (2005 — 2010) • CVS (2004 — present) • Aldi (2007—present) Competition with gas station convenience stores and supermarkets in neighboring cities have contributed to local store closures. Today, many of these former stores have been repurposed for meat processing, liquor sales, offices, and warehouses. Property owners and city staff have struggled to identify compatible reuses. The map below shows former convenience and grocery stores in red and current stores in green.

Federal and state agencies have established safety zones to ensure safety of aircraft operations. Land uses in these zones must be consistent with FAA and MnDOT Aeronautics rules. For more information regarding the Anoka County — Blaine Airport see Chapter 5: Transportation. POTENTIAL REDEVELOPMENT AREAS Various underutilized sites have been identified in Mounds View that are prime for redevelopment. Most of these sites are located along Mounds View Boulevard, and in year 2019 take the form of vacant lots, vacant or underutilized buildings, or oversized surface parking lots. Potential redevelopment sites are listed in Table 2-3 and mapped in Figure 2-3. Such sites may or may not be actively marketed for sale or lease by their owners. In either case, the City markets such sites to inquiring developers and investors. The City's Economic Development efforts are restricted by the following: • Land that is prime for redevelopment, but whose owners are not interested in selling, or have priced the property above market. • Land in which the highest & best use would require demolition of its building. The cost of the property (land + building) is too expensive when considering the building has no reusable value. • Lack of available properties, five or more acres in size. • Lack of access onto Mounds View Boulevard. Since the 2030 Comprehensive Plan update, the City has assisted private redevelopment efforts through acquiring small adjacent properties and assembling into a larger project area. The EDA's acquisition of property is dependent upon adequate funding. Funding sources have varied, project by project. The EDA has and will consider Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and Tax Abatement, as appropriate.

The lounge has expanded to include a bowling center, three event halls, and a hotel. The property includes 9.3 acres, and over 800 parking stalls. The expansive parking lot allows the facility to hold simultaneous events which maximizes its capacity. The property changed owners in 2018 and looks forward to a new chapter at this key intersection. This may include redevelopment of portions of its parking lot for a use complementary to its hotel and event center, in addition to the restoration of its iconic statue. Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-13 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 DOWNTOWN STUDY The City Council and Planning Commission have expressed interest in redevelopment along Mounds View Boulevard and public input has suggested increased demand for a local downtown center. The Metropolitan Council has emphasized the importance of developing dense activity centers where people can live, work, and play. A center that is accessible by Mounds View residents by foot could provide a place to gather and inspire unified identity for the community. The most likely locations for a downtown center are around the New Vision Cinema, The Mermaid, or Mounds View Square. The Mixed -Use land use guide category may be used as a tool to encourage this type of growth. In the coming years, staff will study feasibility and alternatives for redeveloping land to function as a town center for Mounds View. Land use studies will be done in tandem with transportation studies, as each is largely dependent on the other. For transportation related topics, see Chapter 5. onaao � 0 CID MOUNDS VIEW Opinion Survey "Character. We are bland with one stupid wide treeless canal -like highway of cement cutting down the middle with some of the worst -timed stop lights in the Twin Cities. Nowhere to go, nothing to do, no place to meet. We live here, but go elsewhere for any kind of social life." - Mounds View Resident s �k Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-15 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 HOUSING Many of the sites identified in Figure 2-3 are along Mounds View Boulevard, prime for Mixed -use development including medium- to high -density housing as an integral component. Projects in these locations are well situated to host both affordable- and market -rate units as they often have greatest access to services and amenities. For more information, see Chapter 3: Housing. New housing units along Mounds View Boulevard may help increase the number of available units in the city while maintaining the existing character of adjacent residential neighborhoods by directing growth toward the corridor. Support for — and improvement of — existing transit along the Boulevard will help improve mobility, reduce congestion, and in turn help reduce the likelihood of motorists driving -through residential neighborhoods, helping maintain their quiet character. See Chapter 5: Transportation for more. KEY EMPLOYMENT AREAS Most employment areas within the city are located along Mounds View Boulevard. The exceptions include schools and churches. The heaviest concentration of jobs are in the industrial areas around the interchange of Mounds View Boulevard and Interstate-35W. A secondary employment area straddles the border of Mounds View and Blaine north of US Highway 10. The Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) and Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS) together comprise over two -thousand acres of land just east across interstate-35W from Mounds View. Plans for redevelopment of the massive site have spanned decades. In 2016, the City of Arden Hills and Ramsey County, as a Joint Development Authority, selected a master developer for the site. As development continues, the TCAAP and AHATS site are expected to become key employment areas for Mounds View and surrounding municipalities. The Mounds View School district is consistently ranked among the Top 10 metro school districts. School district facilities within Mounds View include Pinewood Elementary school (553 students), Edgewood Middle school (659 students), Bridges transitional school and the Area Learning Center. Combined, these schools account for about 200 staff. It is critical for Mounds View to maintain and attract employment opportunities as a matter of quality of life for its residents. A self-sustaining community is one that has a variety of uses, from residential to commercial and industrial. Keeping jobs nearby means that residents of Mounds View have greater opportunities to live near work, reduce their commute times, and be able to spend more time doing other things. Measures of employment intensity in key areas is shown in Table 2-4: 2040 Employment Intensity. MOUNDS VIEW Medtronic In 1970, the Mounds View City Council denied a proposed 900-unit manufactured housing park near the North Starr Speedway (1950-1979), and appointed a golf course study committee, which recommended an 18-hole public course and swimming pool. In 1995, "The Bridges" 9-hole public course opened. After consistently operating at a deficit, the City closed the course in 2005, and sold the land to Medtronic. Proceeds from the sale have been used to supplement the City's General Fund by about $250,000 per year, between 2007 and 2033. Park Dedication Fees were used to move the clubhouse to Random Park, and construct park shelters at Hillview and Lambert parks. Medtronic's Mounds View campus opened in 2007 and focuses on research & development of cardiac rhythm medical devices. The campus includes three office towers, a parking ramp, and land for expansion. Employment fluctuates between 3,000 and 3,300 employees and is Medtronic's largest campus. The campus includes an employee walking path, which according to Strava Labs Global Heat Map, is the most used walking path in Mounds View. West of the campus are 43-acres of wetland, flood plain and woods. This land was donated to the City by Sysco Foods for parks and open space. Pending funding, there is an opportunity to develop a loop trail system. It is likely that such a trail would primarily benefit Sysco and Medtronic employees with limited use by residents because of separation by US Highway 10. Development of a trail would be dependent upon donations from the two businesses.

SOLAR ACCESS Minnesota Statutes require an element for the protection and development of access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems. The purpose of this legislation is to prevent solar collectors from being shaded by adjacent structures or vegetation and to ensure the availability of solar access. The City of Mounds View will whenever possible protect access to direct sunlight for solar energy systems on principal structures. The City will consider solar access in the review of site plans and planning decisions. The Metropolitan Council has calculated the gross and rooftop solar potential for the City to identify how much electricity could be generated using existing technology. The gross solar potential and gross solar rooftop potential are expressed in megawatt hours per year (Mwh/yr) and these estimates are based on the solar map for each community. Developed areas with low building heights and open space areas have the highest potential for solar development within the City. Many of the developed neighborhoods and some natural areas in Mounds View have low gross solar potential due to existing tree cover. Solar suitability is mapped in Figure 2-4 and calculated in Table 2- 5: Solar Suitability.

Preserving and retaining natural resources for the future is an important value in Mounds View and across the region. The City is home to numerous parks, lakes, and wetlands, which provide ecological and recreational benefits to residents. These natural resources are shown in Figure 2-5. No new parks are planned but the City will work to protect existing natural areas for future generations. Mounds View will collaborate with adjacent communities, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the Rice Creek Watershed District, Ramsey County, Anoka County, and the Metropolitan Council to protect and enhance natural resources in the area. Mounds View is a Minnesota Green Step City, Level 2 (2020) and considering appointing a Green Step Advisory Committee to pursue additional endeavors. HISTORIC PRESERVATION Figure 3-1 illustrates the age of housing. There are no known historically significant or potential historically significant sites in Mounds View. The Mermaid statute (The Mermaid Event Center (1966) is culturally significant The statute was removed in 2018 due to roof damage. Nearly historic buildings include Moe's (formerly, Pinewood Club (1940), Church Upon the Rock (formerly, Red Oak School, 1940), Columbia Transit (1940), Simons Sporting Goods and Simons Liquor (1946), and Fedor's Pinewood Market (1948). These buildings served as cornerstones of the Village after the War years. Structurally and by appearances, these buildings have not fared well over time. Within this Plan, a policy is established to consider adapted re- use, prior to any demolition and redevelopment. AGGREGATE RESOURCES There are no aggregate sites in Mounds View. Therefore, there is no need for the City to adopt any special measures to ensure the protection of these resources. According to historic accounts, much of the "mounds" of Mounds View Township were mined long ago. Remnants remain within the Arden Hills Army Training Site (AHATS). MOUNDS VIEW SilverView Park Chapter 2: Land Use 1 2-19 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Chapter 3: Housing INTRODUCTION Mounds View is a suburb in the northern Twin Cities metropolitan area. A variety of forces affect housing including demographic, regional, and local trends, the economic climate, the availability of land, government controls and the real estate market. A key factor in the City's ability to provide a livable community has been the development and maintenance of strong neighborhoods, which consist of a variety of housing styles and types, ownership and rental options, and range of costs. The housing element of the Plan reviews the current housing situation and establishes a plan to meet the city's future housing needs. In addition, this element reports on four areas that the Metropolitan Council requires study including housing goals and policies, analysis of housing supply, anticipating future housing needs, and outlining programs that the City plans or currently utilizes to achieve housing goals. HOUSING GOALS AND POLICIES The City has developed goals and policies related to housing in order to grow and adapt to changing conditions. The goals and policies of this chapter are critical to guide housing that supports the community as it evolves and to support projected growth. The following are the housing goals and policies for Mounds View: Goal 1: Support development and redevelopment which accomplishes 2040 forecasted population growth and the supportive land use designations identified in this plan. Goal 2: Maintain the residential character of Mounds View. • Preserve single-family neighborhoods. • Reinvest in multi -family properties. • Redevelop the Mounds View Boulevard corridor. Goal 3: Support a mix of housing types reflective of the needs and desires of the community. Preserve affordable housing while encouraging redevelopment of multi -family properties, including manufactured home parks, such that if publicly subsidized redevelopment occurs, there is no net -loss of affordable housing units. Support Home Improvement programs and encourage their use by residential property owners. MOUNDS VIEW Opinion Survey It is clear that there is public opposition to affordable housing, and apartments. Many of the concerns may be attributed to the age of apartments, many of which were built in the 1960's and 1970's, have been minimally improved, and lack modern amenities. The Comprehensive Plan seeks a mix of housing types, supporting existing single-family neighborhoods, stabilizing the County Road I corridor, and manufactured home communities, as well as redevelopment of the Mounds View Boulevard Corridor. Chapter 3: Housing 1 3-1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 • Coordinate with manufactured home communities on ways to improve their neighborhoods and longevity of private infrastructure. Implementation of Housing goals and policies will focus on enforcement of property maintenance codes, crime reduction, preservation of urban forests, coordination with Ramsey County and service providers to help residents with financial and health concerns, and encourage rehabilitation and preservation of naturally occurring affordable housing, including reducing stormwater inflow & infiltration at manufactured home parks. Affordable Housing goals are most likely to be accomplished through redevelopment along the Boulevard, with inclusion of affordable and market -rate units. This is dependent upon the flexibility afforded by the Mixed Use zoning district, allowing increased density standards. The City will adopt a Fair Housing Policy and/or plan. Currently, the City informally implements practices without a coordinated plan. EXISTING STOCK Mounds View was predominantly developed in the 1950's through 1970's. One -level homes, split-levels, and rambler homes are typical in this city as they are in the surrounding cities. Manufactured homes provide a significant percentage of housing units in the city and are located in three manufactured home parks. There are also a number of senior housing and multi -family units built from the late 1960's through the 2000's. The farmhouses that were built prior to 1930 and that are still standing are scattered throughout town. Figure 3-1 shows the time period in which each house in the city was built. Figure 3-2 shows the values of owner -occupied housing units. The same data is not available for renter occupied units so this map excludes the values of apartments and homes in manufactured home parks. There were 5,332 occupied housing units in Mounds View in 2016. Most of those units, 3,102 or 58% were single-family homes. Multi -family homes (i.e. apartments or townhomes) made up 30% of the housing stock. A significant 10% of housing units in Mounds View are manufactured homes. Approximately two-thirds of the total housing units were owner occupied. One- third were renter occupied. A break -down of housing units by type are calculated in Table 3-1.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) defines housing as 'affordable' if its residents pay no more than 30% of their gross income on housing and related costs. Housing costs include rent or mortgage payments, utility bills, HOA fees or other fees associated with living in a home. There are over twelve hundred (24%) cost burdened households in Mounds View who do not meet that threshold. Households are considered Cost Burdened if their housing costs account for a high percentage of their income. Cost burdened households are classified by household size and income as a percent of the area median income (AMI). Qualifications for affordable housing are dependent on income and household size, broken down in Table 3-2. The maximum rent by income and household size is broken down in Table 3-3. The number of cost -burdened households by income brackets below area median income (AMI) are calculated in Table 3-4.

As 212 leases expire, BBH has remodeled each 59 unit, floor to ceiling, investing about $10,000 per unit, with a goal of rents of about $1 per square foot (garage extra). 2 "Boulevard" Apartments, constructed in 2019, includes 60-units at or below 60% AMI. Reinvestment in multi -family housing is critical to maintain these older buildings and stabilize neighborhoods. Chapter 3: Housing 1 3-6 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 The Metropolitan Council estimates that there will be an increase of 220 new households in Mounds View between 2020 and 2040. In order to accommodate the growth, new homes both single-family and multi -family are likely needed. New multi -family development is likely to occur along the Mounds View Boulevard corridor on property currently used as single-family residential and commercial uses. HOUSING ACTION PLAN Mounds View intends to work with partners to develop an Action Plan that focuses on: Homeowner Assistance 2. Preservation of Affordable Housing 3. Development/Redevelopment of New Affordable Housing Currently (2019), such efforts operate independently, rather than as a conjoined effort. A conjoined effort will be developed as part of the City's Strategic Plan that more clearly explains cause & effect of the City's actions. HOMEOWNER ASSISTANCE Many of the resources are through Ramsey County, and include loans for moderate -income to low-income households, and weatherization programs specific to suburban communities. A list of available resources can be found on the City of Mounds View website. As of 2019, this list includes programs facilitated by the Center for Energy and Environment (CEE), including; • Suburban Ramsey County Energy Conservation Differed Loan • Mounds View Emergency Repair Deferred Loan • Mounds View General Home Repair Revolving Loan • Mounds View Mobile Home Loan Fairchild Avenue AM MOMD-S VIEW Red Oak Drive Chapter 3: Housing 1 3-7 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 PRESERVATION OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING Mounds View includes some small homes on large lots built prior to World War II. As homeowners move or pass away, developers have purchased, demolished, and subdivided the properties for new construction, typically priced between $325,000 and $425,000. The City will continue to encourage such redevelopment, which is necessary to provide options, and to remain competitive with surrounding communities within the School District. Mounds View is home to three manufactured home parks consisting of 561 homes on a combined 80 acres. These properties are particularly desirable for redevelopment due to their size, proximity to freeways, service, manufacturing and high-tech jobs, and are walkable distances to parks and schools. These manufactured home parks are privately owned and maintained. The City intends to work with the owners and the Metropolitan Council to monitor private infrastructure for structural stability including water inflow and infiltration. Should one or more of these parks be redeveloped, the City supports preserving the same number of affordable housing units in its place, or within the same school attendance boundary. DEVELOPMENT OF NEW AFFORDABLE HOUSING The City has preference for new market -rate housing in order to provide a range of housing options. When warranted, the City will support new affordable housing projects on a case -by -case basis, preferably mixed with market rate housing. It has been the City's experience that mixed affordable/market-rate developments are difficult to attract to Mounds View because of smaller land parcels available for redevelopment, meaning smaller projects are more likely to be developed as all affordable, or all market -rate units with no mixture. The City will continue to work with its partners to better understand the City's place in supporting affordable housing within the larger metro area. Mounds View is an attractive location because of the school district, proximity to freeways, and jobs. Redevelopment is likely to occur along the Mounds View Boulevard and many of those parcels are guided for mixed use and higher density housing to better support a mix of housing, including affordable units. See Chapter 1: Land Use. The city's location is hindered by the availability and cost of land3, limited mass transit access, and public opposition to affordable housing due to the large amount that already exists in the City. Part of this is public perception of "what kind of people" live in affordable housing. The City will continue its efforts of making Mounds View an inclusive and welcoming community. 3 The Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) provides competitive tax credits to qualifying affordable housing projects based on a Qualified Allocation Plan, taking into account proximity to jobs, transit, high performing school districts, economic and racial integration. More points tend to be awarded to those areas of higher incomes and less integration, presenting a challenge for Mounds View which is stable and affordable, not attracting regional attention for reinvestment, and supporting vacancy along Mounds View Boulevard. MOUNDS VIEW Boulevard Affordable Housing costs about the same to construct as market -rate housing. New affordable housing is affordable because of subsidies provided to the developer/owner, allowing them to reduce rent. For example, the Boulevard Apartments (2019) costs about $230,000 per unit to build, and will charge rents within 60% of AMI. The project received funding from multiple sources, including; the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (IRS Tax Credits), Metropolitan Council (Livable Communities Grant), Ramsey County (discounted land sale), and the City of Mounds View (Tax Increment Financing). It is these subsidies that made the project financially feasible, and would not have been built but for this assistance.

Chapter 3: Housing 1 3-10 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Chapter 4: Parks, Trails, and Community Facilities INTRODUCTION This section covers the lands, infrastructure, buildings, and services that public agencies provide on a public and semipublic basis in the interest of Mounds View residents. Public facilities and services are vital to the city's quality of life and marketability. As Mounds View is a developed city, its public facilities are generally in place. The focus of this chapter is maintenance and improvement of existing facilities and services and the community's future needs. PARKS, TRAILS, AND COMMUNITY FACILITIES GOALS AND POLICIES The City of Mounds View has developed policies related to parks, trails, and community facilities to ensure their preservation and enhancement. The goals and policies are as follows: Goal 1: Recognize that the Mounds View ISD 621 is the most valued community asset, and coordinate with the district in developing mutually beneficial facilities and programs. Establish agreements with ISD 621 and athletic associations for shared programing and maintenance of city -school facilities. Goal 2: Support community health through land uses that improve opportunities for physical activities, access to healthy food and social services, housing stability and the environment. • Support healthy lifestyle programs through continued cooperation with the YMCA and other programing. • Support partnerships between the City and community organizations, and for -profit organizations and local entrepreneurs, for the joint use of City facilities. • Investigate market demands for the Community Center and consider re -allocating space and/or expansion to meet the needs of the community and the adjacent City Hall Park. • Explore opportunities for studying access to healthy food. MOUNDS VIEW Opinion Survey 28% of respondents use the Mounds View Community Center, and 30% use city trails at least weekly. There were several comments comparing Mounds View facilities to that of Shoreview and New Brighton, along with suggestions for minor improvements to specific parks and trail segments. The Comprehensive Plan seeks to maintain and enhance current park facilities and explore partnerships for expansions and enhancements. Silver View Park Chapter 4: Parks, Trails, and Community Facilities 1 4-1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Goal 3: Improve connections between local trails and regional trail systems. Complete the City's trail and sidewalk master plan with connections to trails/sidewalks in adjacent cities. Coordinate with Ramsey County and DNR for improvements to the Rice Creek Water trail and the regional trail system. Goal 4: Conduct inventory and needs analysis of park facilities to address if parks are addressing the needs of the immediate neighborhood and the larger community. Identify gaps in facilities, and program improvements through the CIP and annual budget. Consider repurposing of under-utilized properties in a manner that achieves the highest and best use and increases the value (not limited to monetary) to the community while mitigating impacts on surrounding neighborhoods. Study park dedication fees and how they are handled by other municipalities. Goal 5: Create a pollinator friendly community. • Encourage pollinator friendly practices in private gardens. • Partner with local schools. Goal 6: Maintain, repair, and improve the City's stormwater system infrastructure as necessary. EXISTING PARKS AND TRAIL NETWORK Parks and open space areas in Mounds View include municipally owned and operated neighborhood and community parks and special use facilities. There are nine neighborhood parks, three community parks, and one special use park. These publicly owned parcels are highlighted in Figure 4-1. The City owns several properties that do not have a designated use. Many of these are not publicly accessible or consist of wetlands and flood plain. The City intends to consider the land's highest and best use, which may be leaving it as open space. City trails and sidewalks are identified in Figure 4-2. The City plans to complete a trail segment along Mounds View Boulevard, with connections to the Rice Creek North Regional Trail (east), and planned trails in Spring Lake Park (west). The City has added sidewalks as part of its street reconstruction program. It is the intent that every household be within a'/4 mile of a sidewalk or trail, and that all busy roads have a sidewalk or trail. AM MOUNDS VIEW Rice Creek North Regional Trail Master Plan The 14-mile Rice Creek Regional Trail extends from the Chain of Lakes Regional Park Reserve in Lino Lakes (5,500 acres), to the Mississippi River in Fridley. Within Ramsey County, the trail passes through a wildlife corridor adjacent to the Arden Hills Army Training Site, and through Long Lake Regional Park in New Brighton (217 acres). Anoka and Ramsey counties are conducting a trail master plan. The main activity center will be in and around Building 189 in Arden Hills. Within Mounds View, planned improvements include: Trails for hiking, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing, east of and adjacent to Irondale HS. Redevelopment of the parking lot at Old Hwy 8 to include improved water trail access, fishing area, restrooms, increased parking. Overflow parking at Edgewood Middle School.

Within, and adjacent to Mounds View, is the Rice Creek North Regional Trail, and water trail, which includes portions of Anoka and Ramsey counties. The trail cuts through the far southeast corner of Mounds View. Facilities include a pedestrian trail, water trail (Rice Creek), and parking/portage area. PLANNED PARKS AND TRAILS There are no proposals for new parks within the city. There are a number of sidewalks, trails, and extensions proposed to improve options for active transportation. Proposed trails and sidewalks generally connect segments that are missing to close gaps in the network. Proposed trails/sidewalks connections are mapped in Figure 4-2. COMMUNITY FACILITIES Mounds View public buildings include City Hall (which includes city administrative offices and the police department), the Public Works maintenance facility, the community center, park buildings, and park shelters. All community facilities are mapped in Figure 4-. MOiI-ND S_1VIEW I Mounds View Community Center and YMCA The Bel Rae Ballroom was built in 1964 and was remodeled to become the Mounds View Community Center in 1998. The Center includes a banquet facility with a 400-person capacity, meeting rooms, gymnasium, fitness equipment, teen center, game area, and a daycare center which operates independently. In 1998, the City Council voted to eliminated the Parks Department and contract with an external agency. The City entered into an agreement with the YMCA in 1999, reviewing agreements every five years. The YMCA administers the Community Center operations and recreational programing, and is overseen by the YMCA Advisory Board, including two City Councilmembers, Parks, Trails & Forestry Commissioners, community members, YMCA staff and City staff. The Advisory Board provides recommendations to the City Council on operational considerations. Heat Source Map, illustrating popularity of walking/jogging routes (Stava Labs, 2019).

City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan mouNDS V iEw DRAFT September 21, 2020 Chapter 5: Transportation INTRODUCTION The roadway system in Mounds View is built -out, though it will continue to evolve in the coming years. The system consists of state and county roads that function as principal and minor arterials, and County and City roads that function as collector and local streets. Mounds View Boulevard, also known as County Highway 10, runs diagonally through the city. The corridor provides quick access to nearby freeways, but many have seen it function dually as a barrier. The State of Minnesota (MnDOT) turned the jurisdiction of Mounds View Boulevard to Ramsey County in 2000. While Mounds View acknowledges the importance of the corridor for moving traffic, the City has determined that there is an excessive amount of right-of-way being maintained for the Boulevard. In 2002, the City adopted a design theme to enhance the image of the Mounds View Boulevard corridor and continues to work toward its implementation. Mounds View has developed a comprehensive trailway plan. The City will consider opportunities to implement the construction and maintenance of trailways. See Chapter 5: Parks, Trails, and Community Facilities for more information. Transportation Goals and Policies The City has developed transportation goals and policies to ensure residents and visitors can move safety through the city. The goals and policies related to transportation are as follows: Goal 1: Support Transit Oriented Development (TOD) through supportive transit options. • Expand transit routes through Mounds View, including the city's northeast quadrant, where there are gaps in the service area. • Encourage transit innovation and implementation, including future Bus Rapid Transit, alternative modes of transit (e.g. autonomous vehicles), and electric vehicles. • Work with MTC to invest in permanent Park & Ride facilities. • Advocate for transit including the preservation of existing routes, investments in permanent Park & Ride facilities, and support for Transit Oriented Development. • Improve permanent mass transit stations, including seating, shelters, and signage for all ages and abilities. Goal 2: Complete the remaining 20% of street reconstruction and maintain a long- term fiscal plan for maintenance and replacement of City infrastructure. Goal 3: Balance community and commuting needs by enhancing characteristics that improve the City's Boulevard. • Coordinate with Ramsey County access management to balance needs of travelling public with needs of residents and local property owners. • Minimize non -local traffic from driving through residential neighborhoods. Chapter 5: Transportation 1 5-1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 • Coordinate with Ramsey County and MnDOT to improve traffic flow on County and State Roads. • Improve safety of pedestrian crossings along Mounds View Boulevard. • When considering subdivisions, require additional right-of-way and realignment of off -set intersections along Mounds View Blvd. • Include electric vehicle charging stations and improvements to support innovative modes of transportation in capital improvement projects. Goal 4: Continue to participate in the planning process for any expansion of the Anoka County Airport. • Protect the general airspace of the Anoka County Airport, through regulation of structure height. • Notify MnDOT and the FAA of any proposed construction or alteration that would exceed a height of 200' above ground level at an imaginary surface extending upward and outward at a slope of 100:1 from the nearest point of the nearest runway of a public airport, at least 30 days in advance of a Public Hearing, or City Council action. • Oppose expansion of the Anoka County Airport if it creates noise nuisance or safety related issues for Mounds View residents. Goal 5: Improve major and minor gateway entrances of the city to include improved signage and attractive landscaping (where space permits). ROADWAY SYSTEM The streets in Mounds View mostly create a regular, rectangular grid system. The major exception is Mounds View Boulevard as it cuts through the grid northwest to southeast diagonally from Central Avenue (Highway 65) just outside of Mounds View to 1-35W at the opposite corner of the city. This layout creates many angled intersections with the Boulevard. The City is not anticipating any major street expansion projects in the near future, although some street extensions may occur due to subdivisions and development of existing large lots. Some street and intersection reconfigurations and traffic calming installations may also be undertaken to manage traffic. Ramsey County and the City recently completed a federally funded reconstruction of the intersection of Mounds View Boulevard and County Road H. The City will continue to pursue funding opportunities to improve roadway facilities, crossings, and calming measures across the city. a L, �6 Jq � �tr Highway Ave_ C R-H Local Aooess: Mounds Yew Boulevard 8 Caur>ty Road H Gateway to TCAAP from 1-35W: Highway Ave 81-35W MOUNDS VIEW Old Highway 8 (foreground) Chapter 5: Transportation 1 5-2 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Functional Classification Functional classification is a system to establish the hierarchy of streets that collect and distribute traffic from residential neighborhoods to the metropolitan roadway system. The Metropolitan Council has established a functional classification system for the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Classifications of streets in Mounds View include principal arterials, minor arterials, collector roadways, and local streets. The functional classifications of roadways in Mounds View and associated traffic volumes are shown in Figure 5-1. Functional classification helps to ensure that non -transportation factors, such as land use and development, are taken into account in planning and design of the roadway system. The two major considerations in the classification of roadway networks are access and mobility. Mobility is of primary importance on arterials and thus limiting access is a necessity. However, the primary function of a local roadway is access. This in turn limits mobility. The extent and degree of access control is an important factor in the function of a roadway facility. The functional classification types are dependent upon one another in order to provide a system of streets and highways. Minor Arterials — Mounds View Boulevard, Silver Lake Road: Minor arterial roadways connect the urban service area to cities and towns inside and outside the region and generally service medium to short trips. Minor arterials connect principal arterials, minor arterials, and collectors. The spacing range from '/ to 3/ of a mile in metro centers to 1 to 2 miles in developing areas. The desired minimum average speed during peak traffic periods is 20 mph in fully developed and 30 mph in developing areas. The emphasis for minor arterial roadways is on mobility rather than on land access. In urban areas, direct land access is generally restricted to concentrations of commercial/industrial land uses. • Mounds View Boulevard (A -Minor Reliever): Defined as a road that provides direct relief for metropolitan highway traffic. 4 lanes + turn lanes, and no anticipated changes to number of lanes. • Silver Lake Road (A -Minor Expander): Defined as a road that provides a way to make connections between urban areas outside the 1-494/1-694 beltway. 4 lanes and no anticipated changes to number of lanes. Principal Arterials - Interstate 35W, State Highway 10: Principal arterial roadways serve major activity centers, higher traffic volumes, longer trips, and carry a higher proportion of total urbanized travel on a minimum of mileage. Along these facilities, the City and other agencies limit access to preserve the ability of the roadway to accommodate the volumes and to maximize safety for drivers. The management criteria require that a 40 mph average speed be achieved during peak traffic periods. Also, little or no direct land access should be allowed to these roadways. Grade separated intersections are required for freeways and highly desired for other principal arterial roadways. Interstate 35W is between 6-8 lanes as it travels through Mounds View and no additional lanes are planned at this time. A MnPASS lane is currently under construction on 1-35W. State Highway 10 is currently 4-6 lanes and no additional lanes are planned at this time.

It is a critical component of a safe and efficient roadway system. By limiting access points on highways, the number of potential conflicts may be reduced. Access management is important to balancing automotive mobility with automobile access to local properties. As discussed above, access is limited on higher mobility roadways such as Principal Arterials, while local streets provide increased access and decreased mobility. Standards are listed in Table 5-1.

As the use of alternative modes of transportation rise locally and regionally, the City will study the feasibility of allocating more space on the roads for slower moving traffic with a primary focus on pedestrian comfort and safety. The City also recognizes that residents' mode choice is largely dependent on the type of infrastructure in place. The City will continue to study options for improving sidewalk, bikeways, and transit facilities as a catalyst for increasing use of alternative modes of transportation. MovivDS VI W Red Oak Drive Chapter 5: Transportation 1 5-5 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Revisioning Mounds View Boulevard In 1999, MnDOT completed the MN Highway 610 bridge across the Mississippi River. The new bridge resulted in a significant decrease in traffic on County Road 10, from 43,000 Average Daily Traffic (ADT) in 1999, to 26,500 ADT in 2001. In 2002, the City completed the County Road 10 Redevelopment and Revitalization Plan. The Plan considered realignment of several odd -angled intersections of County Road 10 (Mounds View Blvd), but focused on two intersections; (1) County Road H2, and (2) Long Lake Road. When the plan was made public, several affected landowners opposed the proposed realignments because of the needed land takings. The plan was shelfed. Since that time, a number of development projects have occurred at these two intersections, rendering the 2002 realignment plan obsolete. Over the years, the City Council has had numerous conversations regarding improving the Mounds View Blvd corridor, focusing on trails, landscaping, and streetscaping, in addition to redevelopment. The City has no plans to improve the roadway itself. If and when Ramsey County considers reconstruction of the roadway, the City wishes to consider converting it from a rural section with open ditches, to an urban section with storm sewer, curb & gutter. This would allow a landscaped median, and significant visual improvements to the corridor. Such a plan would involve the roadway segment between 1-35W in Mounds View, and MN Highway 65 in Spring Lake Park, necessitating a coordinated project with Ramsey County, Anoka County, and the two cities. Ramsey County has no plans for County Road 10 within its 2019-2023 Transportation Improvement Plan, although the topic is on the minds of Staff from the City and County..

The goals of this program include: Helping to promote pedestrian and bicycle safety in the city Providing a trailway system that connects recreational opportunities within the city Provide trail links to Ramsey and Anoka counties and to adjacent cities' trail systems In recent years, a link to the Rice Creek North Regional Trail and Rice Creek Chain of Lake Park Preserve has been completed, providing bike and walking access to neighboring jurisdictions and the Mississippi River Trail. Anoka and Ramsey Counties jointly operate the Rice Creek West Regional Trail and the Rice Creek North Regional Trails. Mounds View lies in the middle of the corridor and provides a link between the two. Ramsey County trailway connections that serve Mounds View include a route to downtown St. Paul through Shoreview on a trailway on County Road I. Mounds View also has the opportunity to connect with trailways leading to downtown Minneapolis via Silver Lake Road. The City will continue to study trailway improvements and extensions. See Chapter 4: Parks, Trails, and Community Facilities for more. The City does not provide trailways on every street. Mounds View intends for the trailway system to provide reasonable accessibility to all areas of the city, making special provisions to provide access to schools, parks, business areas, and the City Hall and Community Center area. A map of the existing and proposed bicycle and pedestrian system can be seen in Figure 5-2. Trailway priorities established by the City in 1992 include: Stripe and mark one or both sides of City roads with sufficient width to provide on - street trails consistent with the trailways plan 1. Pursue grants and funding sources for development of the trailways in Mounds View 2. Consider adding trailways during street reconstruction and improvements The City has nearly completed a program to construct new trailways along both sides of Mounds View Boulevard, a street which could otherwise be seen as a barrier to safe biking. The corridor contains several destinations vital to the city, including Mounds View City Hall, Community Center, Ramsey County public library, parks, transit facilities, and various strip malls, most of which were designed primarily for access by car. The new trails along Mounds View Boulevard provide pedestrian safe access to these facilities as well as provide access to several local trial segments and regional trail systems. The City will investigate strategies for integrating mixed -use trails into existing strip malls and other auto -oriented developments. The City will also study expansions to the system that provide connections with neighboring cities.

Mounds View is within the Transit Capital Levy District, Market Area III. Service options for Market Area III include: • Primary emphasis on commuter express bus service • Suburban local routes providing basic coverage • General public dial -a -ride service supplementing fixed route service Figure 5-3 shows the current bus routes serving Mounds View. There are express routes to downtown Minneapolis and downtown St. Paul, and limited plus local bus services to downtown Minneapolis via Silver Lake Road. In addition to the fixed route bus service, the Metropolitan Council operates Metro Mobility that provides door-to-door transportation service for people with disabilities and Transit Link, which provides shared -ride public transportation for areas where regular route transit service is infrequent or unavailable. The Metropolitan Council provides other services through the Metro Commuter program. The City is expecting the Metropolitan Council to continue to provide mass transit, Metro Mobility, and Metro Commuter services in the future. The City is supportive of higher density and mixed -use development along the Mounds View Boulevard corridor, see Chapter 2: Land Use. Higher density development is needed to support frequent transit service, and vice -versa. As plans move forward with higher density development along the Corridor, the City will continue to work with Metro Transit to develop transit service on Mounds View Boulevard. There is an existing park -and -ride lot located at the County Road H and 1-35W interchange area. Transit service in the northeast quarter of Mounds View is virtually nonexistent. The residential areas there, including two manufactured home parks, would benefit from transit service. As Mounds View works to build a robust and diversified transportation network, it is important for transit service to be included as a viable option. Mounds View will work with Metro Transit to enhance transit service in the City in order to support a multi -modal network and improve access for current and future residents.

There are no existing or planned aviation facilities within Mound View. However, the City has a responsibility to protect airspace from potential hazards to air navigation including electronic interference. The City recognizes its responsibility to protect the general airspace around the airport in Blaine and within City limits. Federal and state agencies have established safety zones and regulations around public airports to ensure safety of aircraft operations. Land uses in these zones must be consistent with FAA and MnDOT Aeronautics rules. Structures that are 200 feet tall or higher may pose a hazard to air navigation. As such, structures are limited to a maximum height of 200 feet and there can be no interference with electronic communications, airport lighting, and impairment of visibility. The construction for any structure or alteration exceeding a height of 200 feet or any construction or alteration of greater height that an imaginary surface extending upward at a scale of 100:1 from the nearest point of the nearest runway of a public airport requires notification to the MnDOT Commissioner and possibly the FAA. The current FAA Regulations can be found on the FAA website. Part 77 of the Current FAA Regulations contains guidelines regarding when the FAA shall be notified of construction or alterations that will affect the local airspace. In the event that the FAA shall be notified of proposed construction or alterations, one may find the appropriate form ("Notice of Proposed Construction or Alteration" — Form 7460- 1) on the FAA website. The FAA has several regional offices with Minnesota served by the Great Lakes Regional Office in Des Plaines, Illinois. There currently are no structures in Mounds View that exceed 200 feet or pose safety hazards to air navigation. Mounds view is almost fully developed and land uses are well established in the safety zones. Some infill development of residential land may occur as property owners subdivide larger lots in the future. Mounds View has enacted a Wireless Telecommunication Facilities Ordinance that governs the height of towers among other things. This ordinance limits the height of towers to 150 feet in an industrial area, subject to certain conditions. As such, the City is not expecting to have any structure that would be taller than 200 feet near the airport or within its boundaries. In 2008, the Mounds View City Council passed Resolution 7366, opposing the expansion of the Anoka County -Blaine Airport runway(s), and opposing any legislative effort to reclassify the airport as an intermediate status facility. The City expects to participate in the long-term planning efforts and preparations of the safety zoning ordinance for the Anoka County -Blaine Airport and to ensure that airport noise levels to not increase in Mounds View. MOUNDS VIEW Chapter 5: Transportation 1 5-1 1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Freight There are a couple nodes of industrial uses that generate freight movement within Mounds View, each adjacent to city limits. The first and largest is around the interchange of 1-35W and Mounds View Boulevard (County 10). Multiple industrial facilities with trucking docks are located in this area. Access is provided via A -Minor and local streets to the Interstate system and Mounds View Boulevard. The second use that generates freight movement is along the city's northern border. There is a distribution center with direct access to County Rd J, an A -Minor Expander so freight traffic is not expected on local streets as a result. There are no rail lines or rail stations in Mounds View. One rail line and spur runs adjacent to city limits and to a facility in Fridley. County Road H2 through Mounds View is the most direct route between the property and Interstate-35W, creating freight traffic through Mounds View along County Road H2. Figure 5-4 illustrates major access -point and desitnations in Mounds View for freight traffic. Figure 5-1 maps multi -axle freight traffic on A -Minor and Principal Arterial roads.

Potions of zones 1703 and 1695 are also within adjacent cities. Figure 5-5 shows the alignment of TAZ zones and Mounds View boundaries. Population, household, and employment forecasts are allocated for each TAZ zone in Table 5-2. The City of Mounds View is developed with few vacant parcels. New population growth in each zone will be the result of residential and mixed -use redevelopment. The heaviest concentration of redevelopment (i.e. population growth) is guided along the Mounds View Boulevard corridor, which limits the need for road improvements on local roads and better supports use of mass transit and alternative modes of transportation. TAZ zone 1701 is expected to see the greatest population change in the city with an 80 person increase. This zone is one of the largest by geographical area and includes land along Mounds View Boulevard, residential neighborhood, one of the city's manufactured home parks, and large industrial parcels. Population growth here could be a result of mixed -use or high -density residential development along Mounds View Boulevard, or infill development in the residential neighborhoods or manufactured home park. The number of households is also expected to remain steady across all Mounds View TAZ zones. In one zone near Long Lake Road and County Road H2, the number of households is expected to drop by 10. In the other zones, the number of households is expected to increase by anywhere between 10 and 30 between 2020 and 2040. The greatest increase is expected in a small zone between Mounds View Boulevard and Spring Lake. Employment numbers are expected to rise nearly across the board, with one major exception. The zone that is spread between Blaine and the northeast corner of Mounds View and that includes a Medtronic facility within Mounds View and industrial uses within Blaine is expected to lose 100 jobs between 2020 and 2040. Most zones are expected to gain somewhere between 10 and 40 jobs. The zone south of Mounds View Boulevard at the southeast corner of Mounds View is expected to gain 300 jobs. Most growth is expected in TAZ zones adjacent to Mounds View Boulevard.

Quincy Street MDUNDS Vi Ew Street & Utility Improvement Program In 2005, a petition was submitted by Mounds View residents in opposition to a street project that was to be assessed. In 2007, the City Council appointed a 30-member taskforce to develop street standards and a financial plan to reconstruct all City streets. The financial plan included the use of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Municipal State Aid (MSA), franchise fees, utility funds, and a ten-year property tax levy. Through the levy, homeowners paid an average of $100 per year, as opposed to street assessments as high as $3,000 per household. The street design plan includes narrowing most streets from 32' in width to 28', and use of storm sewer (vs. open ditches) with curb & gutter. The plan also added sidewalks to a number of local streets. Between 2009 and 2018, about 801/o of the city's streets were reconstructed, with the remaining to be completed by 2024. The adopted plan was not without controversy. A number of residents who were assed for street reconstruction projects prior to 2007, objected to the levy. Those affected property owners were refunded 60% of levied amounts. Chapter 5: Transportation 1 5-16 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Chapter 6: Water Resources INTRODUCTION This chapter provides information on the City's Sanitary Sewer, Local Surface Water Management, and Water Supply Plans. These plans are currently being updated to meet new Metropolitan Council and watershed district standards. Full versions of these water resource plans will be included as appendices to the final comprehensive plan. Water Resources Goals and Policies The City of Mounds View recognizes the importance of water resources for human and ecological services. The following goals and policies address sanitary sewer, surface water, and water supply. 1. Provide adequate sanitary sewer, water supply, and surface water management to serve existing and new development or redevelopment. 2. Construct and operate existing and new public facilities to protect the health, safety, and welfare of residents. 3. Develop a plan consistent with the Metropolitan Council's Regional Development Framework. Policies and Action Steps: 1. Encourage new development or redevelopment that is consistent with the capacity of the sanitary sewer and water systems. 2. Continue City activities to prevent or eliminate excessive infiltration/inflow from the sanitary sewer system. 3. Continue City activities and programs to prevent flooding and adverse impacts from land disturbance, and to manage and preserve the City's wetlands, lakes, and groundwater. 4. Continue implementation of the City's water conservation actions including a conservation rate structure, system improvements, educational efforts, conservation ordinances, and enforcement of water regulations. SANITARY SEWER The Metropolitan Council has prepared forecasts for sewer flow to assist communities in their comprehensive planning efforts. The sewer forecasts for Mounds View are presented in Table 6-1. Table 6-1: Sewer Forecasts 2020 2030 2040 Sewered Population 13,500 13,700 13,700 Sewered Households 5,280 5,500 5,500 Sewered Employment 6,800 7,100 7,200 Average Annual Wastewater Flow MGD 1.06 1.03 1.01 MDUNDS Vi Ew Longview Drive rain garden Chapter 6: Water Resources 1 6-1 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 The City of Mounds View is served by two Metropolitan Council interceptors, 4- NS-523 and 4-NS-524. Mounds View's wastewater flow is treated at the Metropolitan Waste Water Treatment Plant in St. Paul. Several improvements are planned for this facility through 2040 to provide for additional plant capacity and to meet required permit standards. The Met Council has established infiltration/inflow (1/1) goals for all communities discharging wastewater to the Metropolitan Disposal System. Since excess 1/1 is a local concern to Mounds View as well as a regional concern to the Metropolitan Council, Mounds View will continue to work on reducing 1/1 in its sanitary sewer. The City's goals generally are to identify and prevent 1/1 from exceeding local and regional system capacity and causing local backups, and to work to remove 1/1 from the system to the greatest extent practicable. As demonstrated in Table 6-1, the community's sewer flow is anticipated to decrease slightly by the year 2040, largely due to water conservation efforts. The City does not anticipate any capacity issues with the existing sewer system. SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT Mounds View is within the Rice Creek Watershed District. The City has updated its local surface water management plan to reflect the needs of the watershed district and the Metropolitan Council. A draft plan has been prepared and is currently (2019) under review by the watershed district and Met Council. A full copy of the plan will be included in the appendices of this Comprehensive Plan upon completion. WATER SUPPLY PLANNING The City of Mounds View water system includes water supply, treatment, distribution, and storage to meet the water demands of the utility's customers. The utility operates five active groundwater wells to supply water and maintains two water tanks in the distribution system to sustain water system pressures and provide water during emergencies. The City's water system supply and storage is adequate to meet projected future water demands. The existing firm water supply capacity exceeds the projected 2040 maximum day demand. The existing water storage capacity exceeds future average day demand. While no new water system facilities are planned, maintenance and repair of existing facilities are ongoing. The water treatment facilities are currently (2019) being evaluated to determine necessary repairs and improvements to be made over the next five years. All public water suppliers in Minnesota that operate a public water distribution system, serve more than 1,000 people, and/or all cities in the seven -county metropolitan area, must have a Water Supply Plan (WSP) approved by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The City of Mounds View Water Supply Plan is required by the DNR and Metropolitan Council. The Mounds View WSP was originally submitted in December 2016 and was updated in January 2019. A full copy of the plan is included in the appendices of this Comprehensive Plan. MOUNDS VIEW K 4W WATER PRESERVATION PROGRAM Inflow & Infiltration One Million Dollars, per year! That is the cost of treating sewage that the City of Mounds View pays to the Metropolitan Council each year to have our sewer lines connected to their sanitary sewer treatment system. I & I, or Inflow and Infiltration comprises somewhere from 20% to 25% of that bill. Inflow is waste water going down the drain. Flushing toilets, showers, sinks, washing machines, etc. It is not lawn sprinkling as that goes back into the ground or down the storm sewer. Infiltration is seepage into the underground sewer lines, both the City collector lines and the lateral line from the house/business to that collector line. Cracks occur do to settling, roots, or construction activity and with our high water table, ground water or clear water, seeps into the pipe. You can HELP, do not let the faucet run in the sink. Use water saving appliances and low flow shower heads. 100% of our lines will be inspected and re -lined within the next 10 years. A proposed ordinance will require homeowners to inspect and repair their lateral line at the point of sale. Q r�r.�rrtza Example of ground water infiltration due to separation of sewer joint.

The North and East Metro GWMA includes all of Washington County, all of Ramsey County, and a portion of Anoka and Hennepin Counties. The GWMA Plan will guide the DNR's efforts to manage groundwater appropriations sustainably in this area over the next five years. The Plan establishes sustainability goals to help appropriation permit holders plan for their future water use and ensure that groundwater supplies remain adequate to meet human needs while protecting lakes, streams and wetlands.

When considering studies, inter -agency cooperative efforts, and Joint Power Authorities (when applicable), City Staff will consider how these actions are impacted by this Comprehensive Plan, in addition to that of adjacent agency's comprehensive plans, to meet common goals. 6. Throughout this Plan, and as stated numerous times in the City's 2018 Opinion Survey, there is a need to improve the appearance of the Mounds View Boulevard corridor, as well as other areas of the City. 7 The City conducts Business Retention & Expansion (BR&E) visits with each business on a three-year cycle, with the intent of understanding each business' future plans and needs, and assisting when applicable, including programs to assist business owners with improving their property. The City conducts a reactive code enforcement program, relying on residents to notify the City when a property does not meet their expecations. When a complaint is inspected, the City not only inspects that property, but the entire block for code violations. This is to be fair, particularly when the complaint stems from neighbor disputes. Official Controls relevent to this Comprehensive Plan include the following: • Mounds View City Code, Chapters 600 (Public Health and Safety), 900 (Public Ways), 1000 (Building and Development Regulations), • 1100 (Zoning Code), 1200 (Land Subdivisions), and 1300 (Flood Control Regulations). • All new buildings designated for human occupancy shall be connected to the Municipal water system.2 • All buildings which include a toilet or other plumbing facilities, and which are adjacent to the municipal sanitary sewer system, must be connected to the system.3 Once connected, septic tanks are required to be filled.4 Private Water service Private Sewer service 2510 Ardan Ave 2510 Ardan Ave 3024 Co Rd 1 3032 Co Rd I 2 City Code, Section 906.01 (Connection Required; Exceptions). 3 City Code, Section 907.02 (Connection with System Required).

It is not the City's intent that such amendments (e.g. Zoning Map amendments) create non -conforming land uses, but such conflicts must be considered when balancing property rights, and Goals & Policies of this Plan. Updates to the City Budget, Strategic Plan, and Capital Improvement Plan will be made on a regular basis as follows: • 1-year Budget (updated annually, December adoption) • 3-year Strategic Plan (updated annually, April/May adoption) • 5-year Financial Plan (updated annually, May adoption) Official Controls relevant to zoning, subdivision, water supply, and private sewer systems • Zoning Code: City Code, Title 1100 • Subdivisions: City Code, Title 1200 • Water Supply: City Code, Title 900 • Private Sewer: City Code, Title 900 ZONING CODE Zoning is the primary regulatory tool used by local governments to implement their comprehensive plan. The code consists of the official zoning map and the supporting ordinance text. The official map divides the community into a series of zoning districts and the text describes regulations for the use of land within these districts.

Chapter 7: Implementation 1 7-14 City of Mounds View 1 2040 Comprehensive Plan DRAFT September 21, 2020 Mounds View is an affordable community, with strategic access to major freeways, and is within an outstanding school district. The community welcomes all people. Regarding Affordable Housing, the Metropolitan Council has allocated a need for 27 additional units of affordable housing in Mounds View by 2030.E The City will consider subsicizing development projects on a case by case basis (e.g. Tax Increment Financing, etc.), dependent upon location, project integratiion within the neighborhood, and the City's fiscal abilities. The most desirable location for affordable housing is within '/4 mile of both regular mass -transit stops (e.g. route 25/825) and grocery stores (Aldi). There is a one -block corridor that fits this criteria; Long Lake Rd, between Hillview Rd & Bronson Dr. This block consists of, and is guided for single-family residential; thus, transit -dependent affordable housing is not practical in Mounds View without cooperative change by Metro Transit. It is the City's desire for affordable housing to be mixed with market rate housing, although, in practice, this has not been feasible. The reasons why, need to be studied further. Mounds View includes a substantial amount of naturally occuring affordable housing, such as manufactured homes, and aging apartments built in the 1960's and 1970's. It is the City's desire that these communities be stabilized, physically (structures) and neighborly (community). The City does not have the capacity to stablize these communities alone, and is dependent upon cooperation with property owners, Ramsey County, ISD 621, community organizations, and private development. Since the relocation of US Highway 10 in 1999, Mounds View Boulevard (County Road 10) has experienced many vacant businesses and blight due to changing traffic patterns, a changing economy, and commercial landlords who have choosen not to reinvest in their properties. The 2018 Community Survey indicates that Mounds View Boulevard is the #1 priority that residents would change, and that there is a desire for additional restaurants, grocery stores, retail, and other businesses. In order to support such businesses, the community's income must increase, either through higher incomed families, or through increased density. In either case, redevelopment involves change, which is difficult for established neighborhoods to accept. But change is necessary to support the Mounds View Boulevard corridor. Similar to aging apartment buildings, the community includes aging single- family homes. The City utilizes the Center for Energy and Environment (CEE) to administer the City's housing assistance program! The program has been seldomly used, and is adequately funded based on demand. The program is e Metropolitan Council, 2021-2030 Allocation of Affordable Housing Need. Allocation of need includes 13 units for households at or below 30% of the Area Median Income (AMI), 5 units for households with income 31 % - 50% of AMI, and 9 units for households with income 51 % - 80% AM I.

Final Thoughts Although this Plan has an end, planning does not. Redevelopment requires three ingredients; a willing landowner, a willing developer, and a willing City Council. When these three align, it is the City's intent to take advantage of the opporunity to study and implement this Plan in more detail. Without any one of those ingredients, planning is trivial at best. This Plan does not provide all of the answers, but does provide a path to explore ideas further.

It has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Metropolitan Council, as outlined in its Local Planning Handbook and 2040 Water Resources Policy Plan. The report is based on the land use and population data provided in Mounds View's Comprehensive Plan Update. The plan is organized as follows: Section 1 discusses the role of the CSP and its content requirements and provides background information on the community. Section 2 presents forecasts of population, households, employment, and sewer flows. Section 3 presents design criteria used to plan and design the sewer system. Section 4 describes the existing system, including intercommunity flows and individual sewage treatment systems. Section 5 presents policies for addressing excess infiltration and inflow in the system. Section 6 discusses cost estimates and financing of the system. B COMPREHENSIVE SEWER PLAN Introduction September 15, 2020 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 REGULATORY FRAMEWORK The Metropolitan Land Planning Act (amended 1995) requires local governments to prepare comprehensive plans and submit them to the Metropolitan Council to determine their consistency with metropolitan system plans. The local comprehensive plan is to include a wastewater plan element covering the collection and disposal of wastewater generated by the community. Similarly, the Metropolitan Sewer Act requires local governments to submit a Comprehensive Sewer Plan (CSP) which describes the current and future service needs required from the Metropolitan Council. The Metropolitan Council's 2040 Water Resources Policy Plan (2040 WRPP) lays out requirements for the wastewater plan element of the comprehensive plan as well as the Comprehensive Sewer Plan. For simplicity, the Metropolitan Council has combined the required elements of both plans into a single set of criteria, contained in the 2040 WRPP. This 2018 Mounds View CSP addresses the criteria of the 2040 WRPP. It provides growth projections, design parameters for the existing sanitary sewer system, proposed improvements to or expansion of the system, and strategies for addressing excessive infiltration and inflow in the system. 1.2 PHYSICAL SETTING Mounds View is an established residential community of small town charm and friendly folks, located primarily in northwestern Ramsey County. The City is mostly developed, and there have not been significant changes to land use or zoning in the last decade. Relatively small residential developments have been constructed along Highway 10, and more are planned. These residential developments are located in areas that are already urbanized. Bordering communities include Blaine to the north, Arden Hills and Shoreview to the east, Fridley and Spring Lake Park to the west, and New Brighton to the south, as shown in Figure 1-1. The City of Mounds View was established in 1958 and has a total land area of 2,630 acres. The City is fully urbanized with a diverse residential population and a variety of commercial and industrial development. Quick access to three major highways allows for convenient transportation to neighboring communities and the entire metro area.

Table 2-4 - Average Wastewater Flow Projections - Metropolitan Council Year Mounds View Projected Average Flow (MG 1 1 1• 1 1 1 1�1 1 The flow projections presented in the appendices are developed from the land use in Appendix A, which is based on the City's 2040 land use plan (included in Appendix F). It should be noted that the total average daily flow of Appendix B exceeds the projected 2040 flow of Table 2-4, largely due to conservative application of the flow model concerning the capacity and design of City trunk lines. The unit flow rates used in the modeling correspond to typical maximum values for a land use category; they are listed in Table 3-1. The conservative approach to estimating flows allows the City to remain flexible in planning future development, providing sewer capacity for localized development of higher intensity use, and protecting against potential backups.

Using the future land use plan, the area of each land use was determined for each sewer subdistrict. Detailed descriptions of the various land uses are found in the City of Mounds View Comprehensive Plan. Areas of each land use by sewer subdistrict are presented in Appendix A. 3.2 ESTIMATED AVERAGE WASTEWATER FLOWS Municipal wastewater is made up of a mixture of domestic wastewater, commercial and industrial wastes, groundwater infiltration, and surface water inflows. With proper design and construction, groundwater infiltration and surface water inflows, or infiltration/inflow (1/1), can be minimized. The flows due to 1/1 are accounted for in the analysis and design of the trunk sewer system. The anticipated average wastewater flows from the various sewer subdistricts were determined by applying unit flow rates to each of the land use categories. The "system design" unit flow rates are presented in Table 3-1. The average wastewater flows for each sewer subdistrict are presented in Appendix B. For all land uses, unit rates/acre were used to generate average flow projections. The units per acre assumptions and population densities for the residential land uses were based on information from the City Planning staff. The estimated flows are in accordance with standard engineering practice in accordance with our experience in Mounds View as well as other communities in the Twin Cities area and are generally considered conservative.

The PFF values applied in this study are shown in Figure 3-1 as a curve and in tabular form. These values are generally conservative and widely used throughout the state for municipal planning. They include a standard allowance for 1/1, which is typical of new sanitary sewer construction as well as properly operating existing sewers. The design flows for each sewer subdistrict are presented in Appendix C.

This map shows the main sanitary sewer subdistricts, existing trunk sanitary sewers, existing Metropolitan Council Interceptors, and an existing lift station. The trunk sewer system is completely built at this time. Wastewater from the City is ultimately treated at the MCES Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Plant. The trunk sanitary sewer system generally drains to two MCES interceptors, 4-NS-523 and 4-NS-524, at four MCES meter stations, M202, M203, M208, and M212, as follows: • The northerly portion of the City, Sewer Districts 1 and 2, discharges into Interceptor 4-NS-523 at Meter M208. • The central portion of the City, Districts 3 and 4, discharges into Interceptor 4-NS-523 at Meter M212. • The southeastern portion of the City, Districts 5 and 7, discharges into Interceptor 4-NS-524 at Meter M203. • The southwestern portion of the City, Districts 6 and 8, discharges into Interceptor 4-NS-523 at Meter M202. The modeling of the sanitary sewer system was based on a variety of parameters, such as: land use, population density, standard wastewater generation rates, and existing system layout. Trunk sewer lines were defined based on the connection points to the MCES interceptor. Sewer districts and subdistricts were then determined based on drainage areas to each trunk sewer. The existing pipe systems were evaluated and broken up into design segments. Each end of a design segment has a node assigned to it. The nodes were designated for the following reasons: 1. Flow from a sewer subdistrict entering the pipe network. 2. Significant grade change has occurred. 3. Change in pipe size. 4. Two or more trunks connect. Each sewer subdistrict contains at least one collection point where the sewer subdistrict's wastewater is defined to enter the pipe network. Upstream of that collection point, a lateral network of 8" gravity lines provides service. An evaluation of trunk system design flows and capacities is provided in Appendix D. This appendix provides a comparison of capacity versus 2040 design flow for each reach of the trunk sewer system. As noted in Appendix D, there is sufficient capacity throughout the trunk system to convey the design flows. B v:\1938\active\193804167\reports\2018 csp\submitted to city 9-8-2020\moundsviewcsp_formcesreview_09152020_updateddraft.docx 4.7 COMPREHENSIVE SEWER PLAN Sanitary Sewer Trunk System September 15, 2020 This is consistent with City staff observation and monitoring of the system, which indicates no capacity issues. There are two lift stations located in the City. Information on these lift stations is provided in Table 4-1. Table 4-1 — Lift Station Data 4.2 INTERCOMMUNITY FLOWS There is one intercommunity flow into the Mounds View system, from a few buildings in the existing TCAAP area in Arden Hills, as shown on Map 1. There are several intercommunity flows out of the City's system into neighboring communities, as shown on Map 1: • Area A discharges into the Spring Lake Park system • Areas B-D discharge into the Blaine system • Areas E and F discharge into the Fridley system An intercommunity service agreement with Fridley is provided in Appendix G. There are currently no active intercommunity service agreements for the other intercommunity flows. The City is working on such agreements and will supply them when they are executed. 4.3 INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEMS (ISTS) There is just one remaining ISTS within Mounds View. It is located near Hwy 10 in the northern part of the city. Its location is shown on Map 1, Trunk Sanitary Sewer System. Chapter 907 of the Mounds View City Code (Appendix E) requires that all existing buildings adjacent to a sewer main and all new buildings shall be connected to the City sewer system, at which point any existing septic system will be pumped and filled. 4.4 PUBLICLY AND PRIVATELY OWNED WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS There are no publicly or privately -owned wastewater treatment plants within Mounds View. M v:\1938\active\193804167\reports\2018 csp\submitted to city 9-8-2020\moundsviewcsp_formcesreview_09152020_updateddraft.docx 4.8 COMPREHENSIVE SEWER PLAN Infiltration and Inflow (1/1) September 15, 2020 o.0 INFILTRATION AND INFLOW (1/1) 5.1 GENERAL The Metropolitan Council instituted an Inflow and Infiltration (1/1) Surcharge Program (IISP) in 2006. The fundamental policy statement summarizing this program is that the Metropolitan Council "will not provide additional capacity within its interceptor system to serve excessive inflow and infiltration." The Council establishes inflow and infiltration thresholds for each of the communities that connect to its system. Communities that exceed the thresholds are required to eliminate the excess flow within a reasonable timeframe or pay a surcharge fee. 5.1.1 SOURCES AND EXTENT OF 1/1 Mounds View is a second -tier suburb, commencing installation of public sewer in the late 1960s. Approximately 90% of sanitary sewers in the City were constructed 30-50 years ago, with the remainder constructed more recently. Its system has been constructed to modern standards using iron, concrete, and plastic materials. The system is in good to very good condition overall with minimal backups. Currently, Mounds View generates average annual wastewater flow of approximately 90 gallons of wastewater per capita per day (gcd). The extent of 1/1 is not excessive, with no IISP exceedance events in the past ten years. The EPA Guide for Estimating Infiltration and Inflow (June 2014) was used to estimate the proportion of 1/1 contribution in the City's wastewater system. Monthly flow data were obtained from Metropolitan Council Environmental Services, for the period from 2009 to 2019. 2012 to 2016 monthly data were used to obtain monthly average flows for the five-year period from March to November (representative of a wet portion of the year) and December to February (representative of a dry portion of the year). It was determined that the wet monthly average flow (March -November) was 32.08 mg, and that the dry monthly average flow (December -February) was 31.59 mg. Thus, on average, 1/1 contributes roughly 0.49 mg monthly (roughly 2% of base flows). The peak monthly flow for the City of Mounds View is 38.60 mg in June 2014, which is roughly 22% above base flows. Potential sources of 1/1 could include • Non -compliant residential sump pump connections to the sanitary sewer • Leaky pipes and structures under groundwater conditions • Service line leaks • Inflow from floor drains of flooded structures • Private sanitary sewer systems No recent, detailed, citywide analysis of 1/1 has been completed. The City will perform specific evaluations in the future of areas with excessive 1/1 on an as -needed basis. B v:\1938\active\193804167\reports\2018 csp\submitted to city 9-8-2020\moundsviewcsp_formcesreview_09152020_updateddraft.docx 5.9 COMPREHENSIVE SEWER PLAN Infiltration and Inflow (1/1) September 15, 2020 o. 1.2 GOALS, POLICIES, AND STRATEGIES TO ADDRESS 1/1 Since excess 1/1 is a local concern to Mounds View as well as a regional concern to Metropolitan Council, Mounds View will continue to work on reducing 1/1 in its sanitary sewer. The City's goals generally are to identify and prevent 1/1 from exceeding local and regional system capacity and causing local backups, and to work to remove 1/1 from the system to the greatest extent practicable. Specific strategies include: • Preserve capacity in the local and regional system • Minimize 1/1 in the system • Prevent excessive 1/I, backups, and overflows Sump pump, foundation drain, and roof drain connections to the sanitary sewer system are prohibited by Chapter 907 of the Mounds View City Code (Appendix E) and existing systems are further required to be disconnected from the sanitary sewer system, and the City works to prevent 1/1 through inspection of connections to the sanitary sewer system. The City also uses modern materials and standards in new construction to prevent 1/I. The focus of 1/1 mitigation efforts has been on the public improvements side through CIPP lining and manhole sealing improvements. 1/1 mitigation on the private side is addressed voluntarily through educational efforts. The City has started to meter private sanitary sewer systems and will be working with property owners on reducing 1/1 in the systems. The City has also adopted a Water Preservation Program, or "H2OPP". The two primary goals of the H2OPP are preserving and conserving water, by educating residents and business owners with infographics on the need to protect groundwater and to reduce what is being sent down the sanitary sewer and stormwater system. 5.1.3 1/1 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN Since 2016, the City has invested over $400,000 in trunk sewer projects specifically to address 1/1. The work includes sewer repairs/rehabilitation/replacement, CIPP pipe lining, manhole structure lining, grouting of service connections, and abandoning unused service leads. The City has replaced most vented manhole covers and inspects them annually. Annual maintenance operations include manhole sealing, where significant leaks are encountered. In Fall 2019, the City Council approved a Point -of -Sale program that went into effect January 1, 2020, in which property owners that are selling or transferring the title to their property must have their lateral sewer line televised and, if needed, rehabilitated. Ongoing/future implementation activities to prevent or eliminate excessive 1/1 from the system include • Annually televise and inspect sewer facilities for degradation and leaks • Inspect sanitary sewer facilities in response to backup notifications and in coordination with the street reconstruction program • Perform repairs or rehabilitation of sewer facilities as needed • Replace old sewers as part of street and utility reconstruction • Install new sewer facilities in accordance with current standards for materials and construction �1 J v:\1938\active\193804167\reports\2018 csp\submitted to city 9-8-2020\moundsviewcsp_formcesreview_09152020_updateddraft.docx 5.10 COMPREHENSIVE SEWER PLAN Infiltration and Inflow (1/1) September 15, 2020 • Conduct plumbing and other inspections during installation and connection to the system Work towards disconnecting prohibited/unused connections to the sewer system Table 5-1 presents a summary of budgeted implementation costs to address 1/1 in the City's system.

VIEW LOCAL SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN Executive Summary The City of Mounds View has prepared this Local Surface Water Management Plan to serve as a comprehensive planning document to guide the City in conserving, protecting, and managing its surface water resources and comply with the Metropolitan Surface Water Management Act, Minnesota Statutes 10313, Minnesota Rules 8410, and the requirements of the Rice Creek Watershed District. This document provides an inventory of water resource -related information including the results of assessments conducted by other governmental units, both local and state. From this inventory and assessment, Mounds View sets forth its goals and policies, and implementation program. The plan is organized as follows: Section 1 offers an introduction to the purpose and scope of the LSWMP, including Rice Creek Watershed District's LSWMP content requirements. Section 2 of this LSWMP provides an inventory of land and water resources within the City, including a description of the physical setting, information regarding pertinent water resources data, and the 2040 land use map. Section 3 includes a comprehensive list of the regulatory agencies influencing the management of surface water in Mounds View. Section 4 describes plans, studies, and rules related to surface water management in Mounds View that are referenced in the LSWMP. Section 5 identifies the surface water management agreements between Mounds View and other entities. Section 6 provides a current assessment of surface water management in Mounds View, including surface water modeling, National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting process, comparison of regulatory standards, and identification of issues and corrective actions. Section 7 lists the goals and policies identified to address surface water management needs in the City. Section 8 identifies implementation projects and activities to address assessment items from Section 6 and the goals and policies from Section 7. Section 9 outlines the continued administration of this plan including plan updates and amendments. 1.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE 1.1 PURPOSE This Local Surface Water Management Plan (LSWMP) will serve as a comprehensive planning document to guide the City of Mounds View (City) in conserving, protecting, and managing its surface water resources. The City has created this plan to meet the requirements detailed in Minnesota Statutes 103B and Minnesota Rules 8410, administered by the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources. This plan also is consistent with the goals and policies of the Metropolitan Council's Water Resources Policy Plan, and the Watershed Management Plan for the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD), which has jurisdiction over surface water management within the City. Mounds View may amend this LSWMP by following the procedures outlined in Section 9 to remain current with local surface water management standards and policies. 1.2 SCOPE This Plan serves multiple purposes including statutory and rule compliance. Minnesota statute 103B.235 defines content for local surface water management plans. According to the statute's text: Each local plan, in the degree of detail required in the watershed plan, shall: (1) Describe existing and proposed physical environment and land use; (2) Define drainage areas and the volumes, rates, and paths of stormwater runoff; (3) Identify areas and elevations for stormwater storage adequate to meet performance standards established in the watershed plan; (4) Define water quality and water quality protection methods adequate to meet performance standards established in the watershed plan (5) Identify regulated areas; and (6) Set forth an implementation program, including a description of official controls and, as appropriate, a capital improvement program. Minnesota Rules 8410, administered by the Board of Water and Soil Resources, provide more detail on local plan content. Though the BWSR guidance applies specifically to watershed management organizations and watershed districts, this guidance has historically been used to frame expectations for municipal plans. According to Rules 8410, local plans must provide or address: (1) Executive summary. (2) Land and water resource inventory (3) Impact on other units of government. City of Mounds View 1 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec (4) Establishment of goals and policies. (5) Assessment of problems. (6) Implementation program. (7) Implementation priorities. (8) Plan contents; amendments. (9) Annual reporting requirements. The Mounds View LSWMP is structured to provide the information required by 8410 without holding strictly to the outline contained in the rules. Throughout this document, the City provides signposts identifying where a statutory or rulemaking requirement might be addressed. The LSWMP also must satisfy Metropolitan Council requirements as contained in 2040 Thrive MSP Water Resources Policy Plan. These requirements build on those of Rules 8410. Beyond state level requirements and those of Metropolitan Council, this plan must conform to the LSWMP plan content requirements of the RCWD. The RCWD has prepared a detailed checklist of LSWMP requirements addressing the assessment and management of surface water resources within the City. City of Mounds View 2 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 2.0 PHYSICAL SETTING 2.1 LOCATION AND HISTORY Mounds View is an established residential community of small town charm and friendly folks, located primarily in northwestern Ramsey County. The City is mostly developed, and there have not been significant changes to land use or zoning in the last decade. Relatively small residential developments have been constructed along Highway 10, and more are planned. These residential developments are located in areas that are already urbanized. Bordering communities include Blaine to the north, Arden Hills and Shoreview to the east, Fridley and Spring Lake Park to the west and New Brighton to the south, as shown in Figure 2.1. Figure 2.1 — Location Map • OUNTY horeview Arden Hills RAMSEY COUNTY The City of Mounds View was established in 1958 and has a total land area of 2,630 acres. The City is fully urbanized with a diverse residential population and a variety of commercial and industrial development. Quick access to three major highways allows for convenient transportation to neighboring communities and the entire metro area. City of Mounds View 3 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 2.2 TOPOGRAPHY The Anoka Sandplain is the primary influence on the topography in the City of Mounds View, which leads to the gently rolling terrain seen today. As large glacial blocks from the Grantsburg Sublobe (of the larger Des Moines glacial lobe) melted, glacial streams deposited sand in broad, level plains. Shallow lakes formed as these glacial streams became dammed. The particular glacial lake that covered Mounds View is known as glacial Lake Fridley. The City has moderate topographic relief. The City is generally flat with slopes that range from zero to six percent. Several natural depression storage areas exist throughout the City. In the post -glacial period, no significant streams have drained Mounds View, though the City does discharge to the south into Rice Creek. 2.3 SOILS The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) developed a Soil Survey of Ramsey and Washington Counties, which includes the City of Mounds View. One aspect of this survey characterizes most soil types into Hydrologic Soil Groups (HSG). The HSG reflects a given soil's ability to infiltrate stormwater during long duration storms. The four hydrologic soil groups are: HSG A — high infiltration, HSG B — moderate infiltration, HSG C — slow infiltration, and HSG D — very slow infiltration. The soils in the City reflect the development of the Anoka Sandplain. According to the County Soil Survey, Mounds View includes a mix of urban and wetland soil classifications. While the County Soil Survey identifies much of City as "urban land," the soil survey categorizes a large majority of these "urban land" soils in the Zimmerman-Isanti-Lino Soils Association. Soils in this Association are typically found in level to gently rolling terrain of the Anoka Sandplain and can range from poorly drained to excessively drained, classified as HSG A and B soils. Figure 2.2 presents the soils classifications by HSG for the City of Mounds View. City of Mounds View 4 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec Figure 2.2 — Soils Classification Map Soils Classification 5� r iUnclassified A Fd, xi A/D View B _ .► �a r B/DFL nil D 2.4 GEOLOGY The geology of the region surrounding Mounds View is the result of two different geologic processes: (1) Warm, shallow seas covered the area and created conditions for the formation of sedimentary rocks. These formations are present as bedrock in the area. (2) Glacial processes have resulted in the development of surficial geology and, therefore, current landforms. The City's geology is generally ranges from 150 to 300 feet of glacial till and outwash overlying sedimentary bedrock. The bedrock units beneath the City are marine sedimentary rocks primarily of the Upper Cambrian to Middle Ordovician ages (450 to 500f million years old). Ranging from deeper/older bedrock to relatively shallow/young bedrock, the specific geologic units include the St. Lawrence/Franconia formation, Jordan Sandstone, and the Prairie du Chien group. Glacial influence on this area began around 2.5 million years ago and continued until about 10,000 years ago. However, the last episode of glaciation created the present landscape features in this area and across Minnesota. This episode lasted from about 35,000 to about 10,000 years ago. Two major glacial ice sheet movements constituted this episode during what is known as the late Wisconsinan glaciation. The first, the Superior lobe, advanced from the north. The second, the Grantsburg sublobe, advanced from the southwest. City of Mounds View 5 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec In one period of retreat during the Superior lobe glaciation, melt waters deposited a thick layer of glacial outwash made up of sand and gravel over a widespread area including Mounds View. Another layer of till subsequently covered this outwash. This period of glacial activity lasted from about 30,000 to about 20,000 years ago. The more recent Grantsburg sublobe glaciation took place between 20,000 and 10,000 years ago. The Grantsburg sublobe, in addition to moving and redepositing materials from the Superior lobe, deposited new materials over the area. As the Grantsburg sublobe retreated and melted, these changes formed large streams that carried significant amounts of sands. These streams deposited broad level plains of sand and gravel that are referred to as the Anoka Sandplain. 2.5 GROUNDWATER In Ramsey County, there are four main drinking water aquifers present. In order of depth from shallow to deep, they are: The Quaternary Drift aquifer: found in sand and gravel glacial deposits. Yields from the drift aquifer can vary widely based on the permeability of the sediments. The Prairie du Chien -Jordan (PDCJ) aquifer: comprised of both dolomite bedrock and underlying sandstone bedrock. Yields can range from 1000-2000 gpm (gallons per minute) for most large diameter municipal wells completed in this aquifer in areas where the full thickness of the aquifer is present and fully saturated. This aquifer is the most widely used aquifer in portions of the Twin Cities area where it is present for municipal water supply systems. The Franconia -Ironton -Galesville (FIG) or Tunnel City-Wonewoc (TCW) sandstone aquifer: three bedrock units with layers of moderate to highly permeable sandstone. Yields can range between 300- 1000gpm for large diameter wells in this portion of the Twin Cities area. Current nomenclature refers to the FIG as the TCW, however FIG is still often used. The Mount Simon -Hinckley aquifer: located beneath the Eau Claire bedrock formation, a siltstone, shale, and silty sandstone -confining layer that is between this aquifer and the Franconia -Ironton -Galesville aquifer. Yields typically range between 500-1000gpm for large diameter municipal wells. The City of Mounds View currently operates five municipal wells. Well Number 1 is a multi -aquifer well open to both the FIG aquifer and the Mount Simon -Hinckley aquifer. Well Number 2 is a single -aquifer well open to the Mount Simon -Hinckley aquifer. Well Number 3 is a single -aquifer well open to the PDCJ aquifer. Well Number 5 is open to the PDCJ aquifer. Well Number 6 is a multi -aquifer well open to the PDCJ, FIG, and Mt. Simon aquifers. At present, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MnDNR) has restricted cities in the Twin Cities area from drilling any additional Mt. Simon -Hinckley aquifer wells unless no viable options remain for those cities. They are restricting this use to limit the usage of this aquifer in order to ensure that aquifer withdrawals do not exceed the recharge that naturally replenishes the aquifer. The MnDNR will allow cities like Mounds View that already have existing Mt. Simon -Hinckley wells to continue to use them at their currently permitted discharge rates. Any future wells that Mounds View may need to install will most likely be required to be completed in one of the other three aquifer units, most likely the PDCJ or FIG aquifers. Figure 2.3 shows Drinking Water Supply Management Areas (DWSMAs) within the City. Note that some of these DWSMAs are protecting groundwater sources in neighboring communities. DWSMA boundaries are City of Mounds View 6 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec continually changing as cities update their Wellhead Protection Plans, with the general trend being to expand the boundaries as regulations become stricter. A significant portion of the City lies within a DWSMA and is unsuitable for stormwater infiltration practices. The Minnesota Stormwater Manual contains a flowchart that lays out MPCA and Minnesota Department of Health guidance on the use of infiltration in DWSMAs. In general, infiltration is prohibited or strongly discouraged in areas of high or very high vulnerability or within Emergency Response Areas. Infiltration is likewise prohibited or strongly discouraged in areas of moderate vulnerability unless a higher level of review indicates that it is acceptable. Infiltration is feasible in areas with low vulnerability that are also outside Emergency Response Areas, as well as areas outside DWSMAs, subject to other potential restrictions (soil type, contamination, etc.).

The NWS is a branch of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Table 2.1 provides a summary of average precipitation data for the Twin Cities area. City of Mounds View 7 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec Table 2.1 - Average Monthly Precipitation — 1971-2016 Rainfall frequency estimates are used as design tools in water resource projects. Rainfall frequencies are summarized in the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Atlas 14-Point Precipitation Frequency Estimates. Previously, Technical Paper No. 40 (TP-40) Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the United States (NOAA) (published in 1961) was used to determine rainfall frequency estimates. TP-40 was developed using available rainfall information from far fewer stations than exist today; in Minnesota, there are 110 daily observation stations used in TP-40 estimates, whereas there are 320 daily observation stations used in Atlas 14. In addition to the fact that Atlas 14 estimates rely on a denser data network than TP-40, the stations have a longer period of record, and regional frequency analyses and new spatial interpolation techniques are used in the Atlas 14 method. Table 2.2 lists rainfall frequencies from Atlas 14 estimates, for the Twin Cities area, applicable to the City of Mounds View. The data taken from Atlas 14 are solely based on historical rainfall events and are not an extrapolation of data trends to predict future events.

Waterbodies classified by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MnDNR) as Public Waters, as identified by the 2011 Public Waters Inventory (PWI), and wetlands identified from the City's 2006 Wetland Inventory are identified on Figure 2.4, and a listing of the PWI basin names and the corresponding basin name from this LSWMP are presented in Table 2.3.

The Mississippi River and its tributaries form the largest river system in North America, draining about 40 percent of the continental United States. Mounds View is located in the Middle Mississippi River Basin (upstream of Saint Anthony Falls) of the Upper Mississippi River (upstream of St. Louis, MO). According to the US Geological Survey, at gauging station Number 05288500, located at 95th Street in Coon Rapids, the normal elevation of the river is approximately 804.5 feet. The MnDNR classifies the Mississippi River as a warm water game fish resource. It is a MnDNR Protected Watercourse and has a varying ordinary high water elevation that generally coincides with the top of the riverbank. Public Watercourses There are two public watercourses identified in Mounds View: Rice Creek and Anoka/Ramsey Judicial Ditch 1. Although not identified by the MnDNR as a public water, Spring Creek is another valuable watercourse within the City. There is also a historic unnamed ditch in the south-central portion of the City (within the Edgewood Drainage District) that has since been primarily converted to storm sewer. Rice Creek, which runs through the southeast portion of the City, is a relatively large watercourse with a drainage area of approximately 200 square miles. All of the 2,630 acres of the City of Mounds View drain to Rice Creek via various discharge points and conveyance routes through the City. According to a recent survey by MnDNR Fisheries, Rice Creek has two different types of fisheries. From its confluence with the Mississippi River up to the Locke Lake dam, the game fish species composition is similar to that found in the Mississippi River (catfish, smallmouth bass, walleye and northern). Above Locke Lake and upstream to where Rice Creek crosses into the City of Mounds View, game fish are limited to fingerling size walleye. City of Mounds View 10 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec Anoka/Ramsey Judicial Ditch 1 (ARID 1) drains the southern portion of the City of Blaine within the jurisdiction of the RCWD, through the northeast corner of Mounds View, prior to exiting the City under I- 35W and discharging into Rice Creek. Branch 5 of ARID 1 crosses Hillview Road and Greenfield Park and ties into the main trunk of ARID 1 within the northeastern portion of Mounds View. The RCWD is the drainage authority for ARID 1. Spring Creek is located in the far southwestern corner of the City. It extends from Woodcrest Park, crossing both Silver Lake Road and Knollwood Drive before it turns to the south. At County Road H, Spring Creek enters the City of New Brighton approximately midway between Knollwood Drive and Pleasant View Drive, discharging to Rice Creek a short distance downstream, and ultimately to the Mississippi River. The entire tributary drainage area to Spring Creek at the southern Mounds View city limits is approximately 323 acres. La kes Spring Lake (MNDNR ID 2-71P) is located on the western border of the City, on its border with Spring Lake Park. Spring Lake is approximately 60 acres in size, with a maximum depth of approximately 18 feet. The location of this lake is identified on Figure 2.4 and Map 1 in Appendix A. Wetlands There are several wetland basins identified in the City's 2006 Wetland Inventory. Seven of these are MnDNR protected waters: Silver View Pond and six unnamed wetlands, as identified on Figure 2.4 and Table 2.3. Most of the wetlands in Mounds View are isolated wetlands scattered throughout the City; however, one will find a large wetland on the northern border of the City near Ardan Park and the Medtronic Campus and along the floodplain of Rice Creek in Long Lake Park. The locations of all wetlands within Mounds View are identified on Figure 2.4. Silver View Pond, located south of TH 10, between Long Lake Road and Silver Lake Road, was created in 1982 to provide stormwater storage for developments proposed within its drainage area. The pond was designed to have three distinct arms or basins with narrow connections between each to slow the movement of sediment and nutrients toward the outlet. 2.8 NATURAL RESOURCES The City of Mounds View includes no regional open space elements. Significant local open space elements are in the form of parks, trails, lakes, wetlands, and a public beach. Current City parks incorporate traditional park amenities such as athletic fields, hockey rinks, picnic areas, play areas, and pedestrian trails. 2.8.1 RARE FISH, WILDLIFE AND PLANT SPECIES According to the MnDNR's Minnesota Biological Survey, "rare plants or animals are either protected under the provisions of the Federal or Minnesota Endangered Species Acts or are being considered for protection." According to the MnDNR's database of unique and sensitive plant species, there are natural City of Mounds View 11 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec wetland plant communities and rare animal species found in the RCWD; however, none of these are found in Mounds View. 2.9 LAND USE The land cover characterizing Mounds View historically included prairies, forests, and wetlands; followed by agricultural fields; and the current urban setting. The MLCCS Land Use Classification is presented in Figure 2.5. The City's 2040 Land Use Map is presented in Figure 2.6. 2.10 DRAINAGE SYSTEMS The City's drainage system is divided into ten drainage districts and 44 drainage subdistricts, as shown on Map 1 in Appendix A. Ultimately, all drainage districts within the City flow into Rice Creek through various storm sewer connections and drainageways. The bulk of Mounds Views surface water management system was built prior to 1980. As was the practice at that time, surface water management relied heavily on large diameter trunk storm sewer to route runoff away from impervious areas quickly and discharge this runoff directly into a nearby receiving waterbody. In many areas of the City, the primary means for conveying stormwater runoff is within existing streets. At points where flows from several streets converge, catch basins are installed to route flow into storm sewer. The City's current drainage system resulted from the economic realities prevalent during system construction in the 1960s and 1970s. As such, it does not meet the City's current 5-year storm sewer design standard. However, the system design has not led to any notable flooding problems, due mainly to the gently rolling terrain providing overflows for localized surface ponding and relatively sandy soils allowing surface ponding to infiltrate before impacting adjacent structures. The storm sewer and surface water system in Mounds View are fully constructed to serve the needs of the City. Modifications to this system continue as small parcel infill development, redevelopment, and street reconstruction activities warrant. One challenge for the City as a part of this LSWMP will be to identify locations where the City's existing surface water system can be improved or new features added within existing development or redevelopment projects to enhance and restore the City's water resources. Section 6 of this plan presents an assessment that discusses each of the potential problem areas and corrective actions. 2.11 EXISTING FLOOD INSURANCE STUDIES The National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 and the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act of 2014 resulted in changes in flood insurance rates. As a result of this legislation, subsidized rates will be phased out over time until structures reflect their true risk based on the actual elevation of the structure compared to the base flood elevation (or the one percent annual chance flood elevation). Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) for the City were published in 2010. The FIRM shows Special Flood Hazard Areas subject to inundation by the one percent annual chance flood. The City of Mounds View is covered by FIRM panels 27123C0004G and 27123C0005G. These FIRM panels can be viewed at the Map Service Center Page on FEMA's website: http://www.fema.gov/.

The City sanitary sewer system collects wastewater for transport to the Metro Wastewater Treatment Facility where it is treated. The City will continue the current arrangement with the RCWD regarding Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) administration and permitting activities. The City will coordinate site plan review efforts concurrently with the RCWD, but ultimately defer to the RCWD for WCA administration and permitting activities. City staff coordinates with the RCWD and other outside agencies in surface water resource management and conservation. The City's current regulations are available on the City's website at: http://www.ci.mounds-view.mn.us/. 3.3 RAMSEY COUNTY Ramsey County was created in 1849 and is one of Minnesota's original nine counties. The County provides many services to Mounds View residents, including health services and property records. County government also includes the Ramsey Conservation District (RCD), which encourages the protection of natural resources. 3.4 RICE CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT (RCWD) The City lies entirely within the RCWD. The RCWD encompasses approximately 185 square miles of Anoka, Hennepin, Ramsey, and Washington counties in Minnesota. Portions of the RCWD are in the following municipalities: Arden Hills, Birchwood Village, Blaine, Centerville, Circle Pines, Columbia Heights, Columbus, Dellwood, Falcon Heights, Forest Lake, Fridley, Grant, Hugo, Lauderdale, Lexington, Lino Lakes, Mahtomedi, May Township, Mounds View, New Brighton, Scandia, Roseville, Shoreview, Spring Lake Park, Saint Anthony, White Bear Lake, White Bear Township, and Willernie. The RCWD updated their Watershed Management Plan in 2020 and last updated their rules in December 2016 (effective January 2017). This LSWMP reflects these updated rules. The RCWD is active in the regulatory process, including issuing permits to ensure that property owners and land users manage water resources in the District according to RCWD goals and policies. In general, as defined in the RCWD rules, the types of projects that may be regulated by the RCWD include, but are not limited to: ■ Land development and redevelopment. ■ Road projects. ■ Trail projects. ■ Utility projects. As discussed further in this SWMP, it is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. City of Mounds View 16 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 3.5 METROPOLITAN COUNCIL Established by the Minnesota Legislature in 1967, the Metropolitan Council is the regional planning organization for the Twin Cities, seven -county metro area. The Council manages public transit, housing programs, wastewater collection and treatment, regional parks, and regional water resources. The Metropolitan Council reviews municipal comprehensive plans, including this LSWMP. The Council adopted the 2040 Thrive MSP Water Resources Policy Plan in 2015, establishing expectations to be met in local plans. The Council's goals focus on water quality standards and pollution control, "to reduce the effects of nonpoint source pollution on the region's wetlands, lakes, streams and rivers." 3.6 STATE BOARD OF WATER AND SOIL RESOURCES (BWSR) The Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) works through local government agencies to implement Minnesota's water and soil conservation policies. BWSR is the administrative agency for soil and water conservation districts, watershed districts, watershed management organizations, and county water managers. BWSR is responsible for implementation of the Metropolitan Surface Water Management Act and the Wetland Conservation Act. Staff members are located in eight field offices throughout the state. First established in 1937 as the State Soil Conservation Committee, the agency became part of the University of Minnesota in the 1950s, transferred to the Department of Natural Resources in 1971, then transferred to the Department of Agriculture in 1982. In 1987, the State Legislature established the current Board of Water and Soil Resources. The Board consists of 17 members, appointed by the governor to four-year terms, and includes representatives from multiple state and local agencies. In 1992, BWSR adopted rules (8410), establishing the required content for local surface water management plans. 3.7 MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY (MPCA) The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is the state's lead environmental protection agency. Created by the State Legislature in 1967, the MPCA is responsible for monitoring environmental quality and enforcing environmental regulations to protect the land, air, and water. The MPCA regulates the City's management of wastewater, surface water, and solid waste. The MPCA is the permitting authority in Minnesota for the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), the federal program administered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to address polluted surface water runoff. Certain cities in Minnesota are defined as Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s) and are subject to stormwater regulation under the Clean Water Act and Minnesota Rule 7090. There are multiple ways for a City or township to be subject to the MPCA's stormwater regulation under the MPCA's general permit. The MPCA regulates the entire jurisdiction of a city (or township) that is located fully or partially within an urbanized area as determined by the latest Decennial Census and that owns or operates an MS4. Consequently, Mounds View has developed a stormwater pollution prevention program (SWPPP) to address six minimum control measures: 1) Public education 2) Public involvement 3) Illicit discharge detection and elimination 4) Construction site runoff control City of Mounds View 17 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 5) Post -construction runoff control 6) Pollution prevention in municipal operations In addition to the NPDES program, the MPCA is required to publish a list of impaired waters: lakes and streams in the state that are not meeting federal water quality standards. For each waterbody on the list, the MPCA is required to conduct a study to determine the allowable Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for each pollutant that exceeds the standards. The proposed 2018 MPCA list of impaired waters identifies 2,627 TMDL reports needed for the lakes, rivers, and streams in the state. Local governments are required to incorporate completed TMDL studies into their Local Surface Water Management Plans and review their SWPPPs to determine if additional BMPs are needed to comply with the TMDL waste load allocation. The City has one impaired waterbody in its boundaries: Rice Creek, due to fish, macroinvertebrate, and E. coli bioassessments. In addition, runoff from Mounds View discharges to Long Lake, a downstream stretch of Rice Creek, and to the Mississippi River, that are also identified as impaired waters according to the MPCA. Further discussion about the impaired waters receiving discharge from the City is included in Section 6.4. In response to these multiple regulatory activities, the MPCA published the Minnesota Stormwater Manual. This publication provides surface water management tools and guidance. The Manual presents a unified statewide approach to surface water practices. 3.8 MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES (MNDNR) Originally created in 1931 as the Department of Conservation, the MnDNR has regulatory authority over the natural resources of the state. MnDNR divisions specialize in waters, forestry, fish and wildlife, parks and recreation, land and minerals, and related services. The Division of Waters administers programs in lake management, shoreland management, dam safety, floodplain management, wild and scenic rivers, the public waters inventory (PWI), and permitting of development activity within public waters. 3.9 MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH (MDH) The MDH manages programs to protect the public health, including implementation of the Safe Drinking Water Act. The MDH has regulatory authority for monitoring water supply facilities such as water wells, surface water intakes, water treatment, and water distribution systems. The MDH also is responsible for the development and implementation of the wellhead protection program. 3.10 MINNESOTA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY BOARD (EQB) The EQB is comprised of five citizen members and the heads of ten state agencies that play an important role in Minnesota's environment and development. The EQB develops policy, creates long-range plans, and reviews proposed projects that may significantly influence Minnesota's environment. 3.11 MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (MNDOT) Within the City, MnDOT administers several state highway systems. MnDOT approval is required for any construction activity within state rights -of -way. MnDOT also administers a substantial amount of funding for transportation projects completed in the City. MnDOT periodically publishes their anticipated activities in their State Transportation Improvement Plan. City of Mounds View 18 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantQc 3.12 U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) The EPA develops and enforces the regulations that implement environmental laws enacted by Congress; however, the MPCA bears responsibility for implementing many of the resulting programs within Minnesota. The NPDES program and the Impaired Waters List are both the result of the Clean Water Act, administered by the EPA. 3.13 U.S. ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS (COE) Under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, including subsequent modifications, the EPA and the COE regulate the placement of fill into all wetlands of the U.S. In 1993, there was a modification of the definition of "discharge of dredged material" to include incidental discharges associated with excavation. This modification meant that any excavation done within a wetland required the applicant to go through Section 404 permitting procedures. In 1998, however, this decision was modified so that the COE only regulates excavation in wetlands when it is associated with a fill action. 3.14 FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY (FEMA) FEMA manages federal disaster mitigation and relief programs, including the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This program includes floodplain management and flood hazard mapping; however, Mounds View is within an unmapped area. Additional information regarding floodplain mapping can be found in Section 2.11. 3.15 NATURAL RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE (NRCS) The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is a division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Formerly named the Soil Conservation Service (SCS), the NRCS provides technical advice and engineering design services to local conservation districts across the nation. The Soil Conservation Service published the official soils survey for Anoka and Ramsey Counties. The SCS also developed hydrologic calculation methods that are widely used in water resources design. 3.16 U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY (USGS) The USGS provides mapping and scientific study of the nation's landscape and natural resources. USGS maps provide the basis for many local resource management efforts. 3.17 U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE (USFWS) The USFWS works to conserve and protect the nation's fish, wildlife, plants, and habitat. The USFWS developed the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) beginning in 1974, to support federal, state and local wetland management work. City of Mounds View 19 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 4.0 LSWMP REFERENCES 4.1 2020 RCWD WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN The 2020 RCWD Watershed Management Plan (WMP) provides the guidance and implementation strategies for the RCWD to manage its water and natural resources set forth in Minnesota Statutes 103B.231 and Minnesota Rule 8410. The RCWD organizes its 2020 WMP into nine management categories that are used to describe the diversity of resources and issues across the District. These categories encompass specific resource concerns and associated issues. The management categories are the foundation by which the RCWD will organize its actions and efforts to meet measurable goals and address priority issues of the RCWD. These management categories are: 1. MS 103E Public Drainage Systems. 2. Non-103E Drainage Systems. 3. District Facilities. 4. Flooding. 5. Water Quality Management. 6. Funding. 7. Collaborations. 8. Regulatory. 9. Communication, Outreach, and Education. 4.2 2017 RCWD RULES The RCWD Board of Managers adopted a revised set of rules in December 2016 that became effective in January 2017. Designed to protect the public's health, welfare, and natural resources, these rules govern stormwater management, soil erosion and sediment control, floodplain alterations, wetland alterations, and other activities. These rules are enforceable under Minnesota Statute, and can be found at the RCWD's website at http://www.ricecreek.org/. As discussed further in this SWMP, it is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. 4.3 SOUTHWEST URBAN LAKE STUDY REPORT AND MANAGEMENT ACTION PLAN The RCWD completed the Southwest Urban Lake Study in 2009. This study analyzed 24 urban lakes in the southwest portion of the RCWD, which included Spring Lake. The goal of the report was to assess water quality in relation to state standards and to develop Management Action Plans (MAPs) for each lake. Phase I of the report included: • An assessment of existing lake quality data. • Lake -bottom sediment sampling and analysis. • Delineation of sub -watershed boundaries and land use determinations for each lake studied. City of Mounds View 20 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec • Listing of current impairments for the 24 lakes studied. • Summary of available lake quality data. • Recommendations for additional lake quality monitoring via the Metropolitan Council's Citizen Assisted Monitoring Program (CAMP). • Identification of available in -lake and watershed BMPs to address impairments of the lakes studied. The report identified Spring Lake as a shallow basin due to a littoral area that encompasses more than 95% of the lake. The existing lake quality data for Spring Lake was limited, with only one full year of sampling data available at the time the report was written. The report recommended that Spring Lake be added to the CAMP in 2008 to begin to compile additional lake quality data. The report also notes that Spring Lake has experienced significant water level fluctuations in the recent past. New data could provide insight into the level of impact the water level fluctuations are having on lake quality. Phase II of the report focused on soliciting input from lake stakeholders to identify any "impairments" to the beneficial uses they identified. This phase used the existing lake quality data and identified impairments to develop MAPs for each of the 24 lakes studied. The MAPS included a discussion of water quality, public input, and recommendations regarding data collection and specific BMPs to address impairments. 4.4 STREET AND UTILITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (SUIP) As identified in the City's 2008-2009 Action Plan, the City implemented the Street and Utility Improvement Program (SUIP). The basis for this program followed the recommendations of the Streets and Utilities Task Force: Reconstructed or rehabilitated all streets within 9 years. No assessments to individual property owners. The City financed the SUIP in part by a tax levy on all properties. Adopted a uniform street standard making engineering of individual projects straightforward. Recommended standards included: o Structurally strong street section with durable concrete barrier -style curbs. o Repaired and upgraded water mains and sewers. o Considered sidewalks or trailways where indicated in the City's Comprehensive Sidewalk/Trailway Plan. o Applied the most cost-effective stormwater management practices to comply with RCWD Rules; this generally meant rain gardens or infiltration swales. o Group mailboxes in accordance with Municipal Code. Significant flexibility to accommodate individual property owners needs remained. Information about the SUIP can be found on the City's website. 4.5 STORMWATER INFILTRATION PROGRAM (SIP) To address the RCWD volume control requirements for the SUIP areas, the City implemented a program that approached volume control for all projects in a uniform and cost-effective manner. The City Council adopted a resolution establishing the Stormwater Infiltration Program (SIP) to provide a uniform and cost-effective process to address RCWD volume control requirements. Per the City Council's resolution, the main components of the SIP were: City of Mounds View 21 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 1) The City Responsibility for Standard Surface Infiltration Features included with the Street and Utility Improvement Program are/were to: a) Furnish and install all materials to establish turf grass infiltration swales at all locations designated by the City, including at a minimum: i) Provide necessary curb cuts. ii) Grade an infiltration swale within City right-of-way. iii) Restore the infiltration swale with turf. b) Provide the owner of the property adjacent to the swale with educational materials and a list of technical resources regarding the maintenance of the swale. c) Inspect the feature regularly to ensure functionality and effectiveness from a stormwater management perspective. Minimum inspection period is once every 5 years. d) Perform activities as necessary to maintain functionality and effectiveness from a stormwater management perspective. 2) The Responsibility of Owners of Property adjacent to Standard Surface Infiltration Features included with the Street and Utility Improvement Program are to: a) Perform ongoing maintenance of the turf surface within the swale in accordance with the City Code. 3) Owners of Property adjacent to Standard Surface Infiltration Features included with the Street and Utility Improvement Program shall have the opportunity to perform Optional Improvements to the infiltration swale in accordance with the following: a) Any portion of the turf surface may be replaced with plantings, retaining walls, or other landscaping elements, subject to the following: i) Modifications of the underlying soil will not be allowed. ii) Any modification of the surface of the Swale that adversely affects the infiltration functionality will not be allowed. iii) Any modification of the swale size, shape, depth, or other parameters requires advance approval of the City. iv) Upon request, the City will provide the Property Owner with a list of technical resources for plantings. b) The Property Owner will be solely responsible for initial and ongoing costs of Optional Improvements. c) The Property Owner will be solely responsible for the installation of Optional Improvements. d) The Property Owner will be solely responsible for all ongoing maintenance of Optional Improvements. e) Optional Improvements may be performed at any time following the construction of the swale. 4) The City Responsibilities and Rights regarding Optional Improvements within Infiltration Features included with the Street and Utility Improvement Program shall be: City of Mounds View 22 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec a) Upon request, the City shall provide to the Property Owner any information it may have regarding possible financial assistance programs for the Optional Improvements. b) The City shall have the authority to prevent Optional Improvements from becoming unsightly or causing any other type of nuisance to the public. c) The City shall have the right to remove any Optional Improvements as necessary for activities to maintain the stormwater management functionality of the swale. i) Any areas disturbed by the City in the course of maintenance activities will be restored by the City with the Standard turf as described in Part 1 of this Resolution. ii) Any reinstallation or replacement of Optional Improvements in areas affected by City maintenance activities shall be the sole responsibility of the Property Owner, in accordance with Part 3 of this Resolution. During each SUIP project, the City evaluated the streets to be reconstructed with the project and identified locations in the public right-of-way where infiltration swales were feasible. The placement of the infiltration swales was a function of various physical and property owner hardship parameters including: ■ Existing subsurface characteristics (e.g. permeability, groundwater elevation, utilities, etc.). ■ Physical obstacles (e.g. significant trees). ■ Steep slopes. ■ Relative elevation (e.g. locate swales at low points). • Property owner safety and maintenance considerations. 4.6 MUSTANG DRIVE DRAINAGE STUDY Completed in June 2007, the Mustang Drive Drainage Study presented the results of a hydrologic and hydraulic analysis of local flooding issues at the intersection of Mustang Drive and Mustang Circle in the southeast corner of the City (Subdistrict RC-3). This study provided the City with recommendations for surface water system improvements to address the local flooding issues. Per the study's recommendations, an overflow system from this intersection was constructed. 4.7 EDGEWOOD DISTRICT DRAINAGE PLAN The Edgewood District Drainage Plan was completed in March 1988 to address on -going flooding issues within the Edgewood Drainage District. This Plan presents an analysis of various conveyance and regional ponding concepts as a retrofit to the existing stormwater system to more effectively manage surface water within the Edgewood District. More specifically, the Plan identifies outlet configuration improvements for the basin in Subdistrict EW-6. 4.8 SILVER VIEW POND MANAGEMENT PLAN The 2012 Silver View Pond Management Plan was prepared for Mounds View in response to neighborhood and City concerns regarding the management of Silver View Pond. This Management Plan focuses on improving the water quality and wildlife habitat value within Silver View Pond. A trail has been redone in the area, and pond dredging is planned to improve its stormwater treatment effectiveness. City of Mounds View 23 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 4.9 LAMBERT AVENUE DRAINAGE STUDY Regional drainage from Lambert Park flows north through the property at 2255 Lambert Avenue. Low flows are conveyed in a storm sewer across the property, but larger flows travel overland diagonally across the property. The property has been subdivided into four lots and is in the process of being redeveloped. Accordingly, the City prepared the Lambert Avenue Drainage Study to determine ponding requirements on the property to control runoff leaving the site. The study recommended pond volumes, peak flow rates, and high water level to provide freeboard and maintain flows at existing conditions. 4.10 LONGVIEW ESTATES DRAINAGE STUDY The Longview Estates development in 2014 modified the grading, ponding, and an existing wetland in the area south of County Road H2 between Silver Lake Road and Longview Drive. Since that time, water levels in the existing wetland have been rising, resulting in wet back yards to the north and east of the wetland. The Longview Estates Drainage Study evaluated the hydraulics of the situation and recommends various grading, storm sewer, and outlet modifications to reduce the water levels in the area. 4.11 RAMSEY COUNTY GROUNDWATER PROTECTION PLAN The draft Ramsey County Groundwater Protection Plan was last updated in 2010. Ramsey County is now in the process of updating the plan. The City of Mounds View will submit a draft of the LSWMP to Ramsey County for review and comment. The groundwater protection plan provides a summary regarding the regulatory framework for groundwater protection in Minnesota. The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) is the key agency that aims to prevent the pollution of water supplies to ensure safe drinking water sources and limit public exposure to contaminants. 4.11.1 WELL VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT The MDH evaluated the vulnerability of Mounds View's municipal wells to contamination from surficial contaminants. The evaluation parameters included geology, well construction, pumping rate, and water quality; wells were classified as either Vulnerable or Not Vulnerable. The geologic sensitivity rating of the aquifers within the Drinking Water Supply Management Area (DWSMA) was also evaluated. Using geologic logs, the geologic sensitivity of each well was rated using a score ranging from very low to very high. The DWSMA is assigned a vulnerability ranging from low to moderate. The vulnerability assessment of each well is described in Table 4.1. City of Mounds View 24 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec Table 4.1 - Mounds View Municipal Well Vulnerability Assessment Well Mounds View Well 1 Well Vulnerability Not Vulnerable Geologic Very Low Mounds View Well 2 Not Vulnerable Very Low Mounds View Well 3 Not Vulnerable Medium Mounds View Well 4 Vulnerable *High Mounds View Well 5 Vulnerable Medium Mounds View Well 6 Vulnerable High *While Well 4 has a geologic sensitivity rating of high, the log for Well 4 test hole (MN Unique # 468368) indicates that a rating of medium to low is more appropriate. 4.11.2 OBJECTIVES AND PLANS OF ACTION The City's Wellhead Protection Plan (WHPP) was completed in September 2013. A copy of this plan can be obtained at City Hall. The plan contains information which the City views as security -sensitive; consequently, the full WHPP is not available online. The action steps outlined by the plan are discussed below: Well Management: Encourage proper sealing of all unused wells and proper management of existing wells in the DWSMA. Potential Contaminant Source Properties: Provide information to owners of properties that may contain a Class V well. Provide information to owners that will encourage proper operation and maintenance of storage tanks. Periodically obtain information on the status of wells and storage tanks from regulating agencies to maintain an up-to-date database of potential contaminant sources. Public Education: Distribute the Mounds View Consumer Confidence Report and information on the proper operation and maintenance of private wells. Post WHPP information on the City of Mounds View website. Work with the cities of Arden Hills, Blaine, Lexington, New Brighton, and Shoreview to identify appropriate public education opportunities. Land Use Management: Incorporate wellhead and source water protection into the City's planning process. Continued Data Collection: Record static and pumping water levels in the Mounds View municipal wells. Compile additional geologic and hydrogeologic data as it becomes available. Use new geologic/hydrogeologic data to update the groundwater flow model used to delineate the Wellhead Protection Area (WHPA). Compile updated information on potential contaminant sources. City of Mounds View 25 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 5.0 WATER RESOURCES RELATED AGREEMENTS 5.1 SPRING CREEK REGIONAL POND AGREEMENT WITH THE RCWD Mounds View made an agreement with the RCWD to address the outstanding RCWD runoff treatment requirements for the City's 2003 Street and Utility Improvement Project, which was permitted by RCWD under Permit 04-061. In 2003, the City proposed to fulfill these outstanding requirements by the construction of the Spring Creek Regional Pond. However, with further investigation into the feasibility of constructing the Spring Creek Regional Pond, the City found that construction of the pond was no longer the preferred approach to address the outstanding RCWD stormwater management requirements for Permit 04-061. This agreement officially recognized that the City will not be constructing the Spring Creek Regional Pond to fulfill the outstanding RCWD stormwater management requirements for Permit 04-061. Rather, these outstanding requirements have been addressed through the construction of infiltration features designed in accordance the City's Stormwater Infiltration Program (SIP) and included in the Street and Utility Improvement Program (SUIP) projects. The agreement states that the treatment volume necessary to fulfill the outstanding requirements of Permit 04-061 will be distributed amongst the nine SUIP projects, with the distribution being proportional to each project's percentage of the total SUIP size. The SIP and SUIP have been completed, and the City worked with the RCWD to close all open permits that address the City's treatment volume requirements. A copy of the closeout inspections is provided in Appendix B. City of Mounds View 26 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 6.0 CURRENT ASSESSMENT The following section is an assessment of the City's current surface water system. The assessment includes surface water system issues identified by the City, found in the RCWD watershed management plan, or as discussed in a specific LSWMP reference identified in Section 4. Based on the assessment presented in this section, the City will develop effective surface water management goals and policies (Section 7) and, with the coordination of the RCWD, establish the implementation measures (Section 8) necessary to enact the goals and policies and address the surface water management issues. As discussed below, it is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. 6.1 OFFICIAL CONTROL ASSESSMENT Codes and ordinances (official controls) are necessary tools to support the implementation of this LSWMP. The intent of assessing the City's existing official controls is to identify the adequacy of these controls in order for the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. As a basis for this assessment, the City's MS4 permit documents include a summary of ordinances required to meet NPDES requirements. The City Code can be found here: http://www.moundsviewmn.org/government/codes regulations and fees/city code.php As part of taking on the stormwater and wetland permitting role, the City adopts RCWD Rules C — Stormwater Management, D — Erosion and Sediment Control, E — Floodplain Management, and F — Wetland Alteration by reference. The corresponding ordinances in the City Code will be updated to reflect this change. Additional steps for the City to take on permitting responsibilities are listed below: • Work with the RCWD to create a memorandum of understanding (MOU) that the City will take on permitting responsibilities. Adopt a resolution taking on WCA responsibility. • Create a protocol guide for issuing permits. It should lay out various procedures including permit application review and closeout process, hydraulics/hydrology data submittal to the RCWD, and an auditing process. • Create a permit application form (including a fee schedule), a permit form, and a permit review checklist. After adoption of this Local Surface Water Management Plan, the City will need to update all applicable portions of City Code as noted above. Per State statute, the City must amend its official controls accordingly within 180 days of LSWMP adoption. In addition, the City must periodically update codes to remain consistent with City goals, policies, and practices. Table 6.1 presents an assessment of City codes related to surface water management as listed in Table 3.1. City of Mounds View 27 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec Table 6.1 - Surface Water Management Official Control Assessment Update within 180 days of RCWD Construction Site and Land Chapter 1303 approval of the LSWMP to adopt Disturbance Runoff Control RCWD Rule D and to comply with MS4 permit. Surface Water Drainage Update within 180 days of RCWD Management and Development Chapter 1302 approval of the LSWMP to adopt RCWD Rule C and to comply with MS4 Control permit. Illicit Discharge and Illicit Section 907.06 Current ordinance is adequate. Connection Update within 180 days of RCWD Flood Plain Management Chapter 1301 approval of the LSWMP to adopt RCWD Rule E and to comply with MS4 permit. Storm Water Management Fund Section 203.07 Fund is reviewed annually. Update within 180 days of RCWD Wetlands Zoning Regulations Chapter 1010 approval of the LSWMP to adopt RCWD Rule F and to comply with MS4 permit. 6.2 SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT REGULATORY RESPONSIBILITY As noted above, it is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. 6.3 WETLAND MANAGEMENT The City had previously designated the RCWD as the Local Governmental Unit (LGU) responsible for wetland management within its jurisdictional boundaries. However, with the execution of an MOU between the RCWD and the City, the City will assume LGU responsibilities in conformance with Minnesota Rules Chapter 8420 as developed by the Board of Water and Soil Resources on June 26, 2018. 6.4 IMPAIRED WATERS AND TMDLS There is one waterbody within the City of Mounds View currently identified on the state list of Impaired Waters: Rice Creek (between an unnamed lake and Long Lake and between Long Lake and Locke Lake). In addition, three waterbodies that are outside of the City but receive discharge from the City also are on the state list of Impaired Waters: Long Lake, a downstream stretch of Rice Creek, and the Mississippi River. The list of Impaired Waters is known as the 303(d) list from the applicable section of the Federal Clean Water Act; these waters are ones that do not currently meet their designated use due to the City of Mounds View //����} 28 Local Surface Water Management Plan `� Stantec Project No. 193804166 Stantec impact of a particular pollutant or stressor. If monitoring and assessment indicate that a waterbody is impaired by one or more pollutants, it is placed on the list. Information for impaired waters is identified in Table 6.2 and Figure 6.1. The absence of a waterbody from the 303(d) list does not necessarily mean the waterbody is meeting its designated uses. It may be that it has either not been sampled or there is not enough data to make an impairment determination.

The process of developing this strategy is commonly known as the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) process and involves the following phases: 1. Assessment and listing. 2. TMDL study. 3. Implementation plan development and implementation. 4. Monitoring of the effectiveness of implementation efforts. Responsibility for implementing the requirements of the Federal Clean Water Act falls to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. In Minnesota, the EPA delegates much of the program responsibility to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Information about this program is on the MPCA's website: https://www.pca.state.mn.us/water/water-monitoring-and-assessment. The following is an excerpt from the MPCA website describing the program and its need: 'A body of water is considered "impaired"if it fails to meet one or more water quality standards. Minnesota water quality standards protect lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands by defining how much of a pollutant such as bacteria or nutrients can be in water before it is no longer drinkable, swimmable, fishable, or useable in other, designated ways (called "beneficial uses'q. Waters that do not meet their designated uses because of water quality standard violations are impaired. Monitoring suggests that about 40 percent of Minnesota's lakes and streams are impaired, which is comparable to impairment rates in other states "The federal Clean Water Act requires the MPCA to: 1. Assess all waters of the state to determine if they meet water quality standards City of Mounds View 30 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 2. Create a list of impaired waters that do not meet standards, and update the list every even - numbered year. 3. Set pollutant -reduction goals needed to restore impaired waters, called the total maximum daily load 'states must develop a list of impaired waters that require total maximum daily load (TMDL) studies, and submit an updated list to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) every even -numbered year for approval. The TMDL is the maximum amount of a pollutant a body of water can receive without violating water quality standards, and an allocation of that amount to the pollutants sources. ' As a part of the NPDES program, Mounds View is required to review all discharges from their MS4 system to impaired waters, as defined by the current EPA approved 303(d) list. The review of their MS4 system to impaired waters should include the following: 1. Review the Impaired Waters List to determine whether there are any impaired waters located within one mile of the City's boundaries that receive discharge from the City's MS4. For waters that are impaired only for mercury, the review process stops here. 2. Identify the location(s) of discharge(s) from the City's MS4 to the impaired waters. Discharges may include pipes, outlets, ditches, swales, street gutters, or other discrete conveyances for surface water runoff. 3. Delineate the watershed area within the City's jurisdiction that discharges to each impaired water. 4. Prepare an impaired water evaluation addressing the hydrology, land use, and other characteristics of each watershed area delineated. 5. Prepare an impaired waters report. This report will address the results of the impaired waters evaluation along with a determination of whether the City should make changes to the Mounds View SWPPP to reduce the impact from the City's MS4 stormwater discharge to each impaired water. 6. The City will incorporate the changes identified in the impaired waters report into the City's SWPPP and be reported through the annual reporting process. To date, Mounds View has not prepared an impaired waters report for any of the identified impaired waters identified in Table 6.2. Table 8.3 identifies a proposed starting date for the necessary impaired waters. Discussion about the directives for impaired waters and ultimately TMDL studies addressing the impairments for the waterbodies listed in Table 6.2 is presented in the Implementation Section (Section 8) of this LSWMP. Section 8 identifies how Mounds View intends to be involved in the directives identified above and the City's strategy for implementing these directives. A completed TMDL study affecting Mounds View is the Upper Mississippi River Bacteria TMDL, which describes reducing E.coli loading for several stream reaches that include Rice Creek. The City is listed as a regulated MS4 on this TMDL. Policy 33 in Section 7.4.1 will help the City address the Upper Mississippi River bacteria TMDL. City of Mounds View 31 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 6.5 NPDES PERMITTING PROCESS The MPCA has designated the City of Mounds View as an NPDES Phase II MS4 community (MN Rules 7090). The NPDES State Disposal System (SDS) General Permit (MNR040000) for discharges of stormwater associated with Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s) was issued initially in 2003, and the permit is updated every five years. The permit application outlined Mounds View's SWPPP, which addresses six minimum control measures: 1. Public education. 2. Public involvement. 3. Illicit discharge detection and elimination. 4. Construction site runoff control. 5. Post -construction runoff control. 6. Pollution prevention in municipal operations. The City's SWPPP contains several best management practices within each of the listed control measures. These were identified using a self -evaluation and input process with City staff. Many of the goals and policies discussed in this Local Water Management Plan are directly related to requirements listed in the NPDES program. Per the requirements of the MS4 Permit, the City will review their SWPPP and update as necessary on an annual basis. A link to the City's current SWPPP can be found on the MPCA website: https://stormwater.pca.state.mn.us/images/5/51/City of Mounds View SWPPP Doc.pdf The City will coordinate water resource education efforts with outside agencies to complete the City's goals as outlined in their MS4 SWPPP, which may include fulfilling their public education requirements by obtaining educational information and assistance from the RCWD. 6.6 REGULATORY STANDARDS It is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. As part of taking on the stormwater and wetland permitting role, the City adopts RCWD Rules C — Stormwater Management, D — Erosion and Sediment Control, E — Floodplain Management, and F — Wetland Alteration by reference. The corresponding ordinances in the City Code will be updated to reflect this change. 6.7 SURFACE WATER SYSTEM ASSESSMENT The preparation of this plan included an assessment of the City's current surface water system, including storm sewer, regional stormwater basins, and drainage areas. Data related to Mounds View's surface water system was collected from a variety of sources including: • Previous versions of the City's LSWMP. • RCWD Watershed Management Plan. • Basemap and record plans of City street and utility projects. City of Mounds View 32 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec As part of the assessment of the City's surface water system, drainage boundaries and flow paths were delineated based on the best available data. A map of Mounds View's surface water system, including drainage areas and boundaries, can be found on Map 1 in Appendix A. The City is divided into 10 drainage districts that are further divided into drainage subdistricts to account for specific surface water features, with all of the subdistricts ultimately draining to Rice Creek. The City is almost entirely developed, and the existing flooding issues can generally be categorized as small scale nuisance flooding. These types of flooding issues are best analyzed in a subdistrict level drainage study such as the studies identified in Section 4, rather than in a planning level document such as this LSWMP. Therefore, the broader approach to summarizing modeling information taken in this LSWMP is warranted. 6.8 SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT ISSUES AND POSSIBLE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS The following list of items presented in Table 6.3 represent current surface water management issues as identified by the documents included in Section 4 of this plan. It is not the intent of this list to include all current surface water management issues identified in the documents in Section 4, only those issues with a possible corrective action that directly affects the City. The implementation of the possible corrective actions will be addressed in the Implementation Section (Section 8). It may be necessary to conduct further investigation into the feasibility and scope of the possible corrective actions identified in Table 6.3 prior to proceeding with the improvements. Note that compliance with RCWD rules and the Wetland Conservation Act will be needed in order to proceed with the corrective actions.

The goals and policies outlined in this plan are grouped by their relationship to the key issues listed below: • Section 7.2 Land Development and Redevelopment — Goals and policies to prevent flooding and adverse impacts to water resources from land disturbance and impervious surfaces. • Section 7.3 Resource Management — Goals and policies for managing Mounds View's wetlands, lakes, and groundwater, to preserve the functions and values of these resources. • Section 7.4 Citywide Program Elements — Goals and policies for managing water resources and drainage systems on a citywide scale, to effectively achieve surface water management goals. • Section 7.5 Support of Other Agencies — Goals and policies to coordinate local surface water management with the work of the RCWD and state agencies. It is the intent of the City to take over responsibility for the permitting of stormwater and wetlands. As part of taking on the stormwater and wetland permitting role, the City adopts RCWD Rules C — Stormwater Management, D — Erosion and Sediment Control, E — Floodplain Management, and F — Wetland Alteration by reference. The following goals and policies reflect current City policy and Mounds View's current SWPPP, as well as additional goals and policies necessary for consistency with the goals and policies of State, regional, and local authorities. 7.2 LAND DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT Overall Goal: Manage land disturbance from new development, redevelopment, street reconstruction projects, or any other public or private land disturbing activity that creates new impervious surface to prevent flooding and adverse impacts to water resources through cooperation with the stormwater management standards identified by the RCWD. To make this process effective, the City will strive through an upfront stormwater assessment and planning process to incorporate best management practices that focus on treating runoff at the source and not in typical end of pipe treatments. The incorporation of these Best Management Practices will coincide with the guidance provided in the Minnesota Stormwater Manual. The upfront stormwater assessment and planning processes implemented at the project submittal stage will include guidance and recommendations for projects to include volume management features at the most ideal locations throughout a project's corridor. At a minimum, the City will look to provide pretreatment of stormwater before it enters the existing stormwater system. City of Mounds View 37 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 7.2.1 RUNOFF RATE Goal: Control the rate of surface water runoff from development to reduce downstream flooding and erosion.

Update within 180 days of RCWD approval of the Wetlands and Public Waters LSWMP to adopt RCWD Rule F and to comply with MS4 permit. 8.2 SURFACE WATER SYSTEM OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Mounds View's existing surface water management system is a major investment for the City. The ongoing maintenance of this existing surface water management system is critical to protecting this valuable investment. The City's surface water system maintenance responsibilities and the schedule for these responsibilities are included in Table 8.2: Table 8.2 - Stormwater System Maintenance Schedule Street sweeping Twice annually Catch basins Inspected every 5 years, cleaned and repaired as needed Trunk storm sewer Televised and jetted on a scheduled rotation Stormwater ponds Inspected every 5 years, cleaned as needed Stormwater pond inlets/outlets Inspected every 5 years, cleaned as needed Structural treatment devices, including sump manholes and grit chambers Inspected annually, cleaned as needed City of Mounds View /����} 44 Local Surface Water Management Plan `� Stantec Project No. 193804166 / Stantec Generally, surface water system maintenance in Mounds View is funded by the City's Storm Water Management Fund. The City's Storm Water Management Fund rates are reviewed annually to verify that the Fund balance is adequate to fund the surface water management implementation activities identified in the City's Capital Improvement Plan. 8.2.1 STORMWATER POND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM In addition to the City's current inspection procedures for City -maintained stormwater ponding basins, City staff has expressed interest in developing a Stormwater Pond Maintenance Program. The intent of this program is to establish specific guidelines for stormwater pond maintenance, including: ■ Design volume estimation. • Tracking sediment deposition. ■ Sediment removal triggers. ■ Sediment disposal process. 8.3 NPDES IMPLEMENTATION As discussed in Section 6.5, the City of Mounds View is designated as an NPDES Phase II MS4 community. As part of Mounds View's application to obtain permit coverage, the City's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program (SWPPP) identifies many specific implementation items related to surface water management in Mounds View. While it is not the City's intent to reproduce the specific implementation items from their SWPPP in this LSWMP (see link to the current SWPPP in Section 6.5), the specific items identified in the SWPPP can be lumped into implementation categories, including: ■ General ongoing SWPPP implementation items, including: o system inspections. o educational materials. o website updates, etc. ■ Ordinance updates, specifically: c Construction Site and Land Disturbance Runoff Control. o Post Construction Site Runoff Control. o Illicit Discharge and Illicit Connection. • Plan review procedures and standards. ■ NPDES Annual Report. ■ Surface Water System Map. The cost for implementing the items listed above will vary from year to year, but, for budgeting purposes, estimated costs for these items are included in Table 8.3. 8.4 PRIORITY SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS AND ACTIVITIES Based on the assessment of the City's current surface water management program and the implementation items in the preceding sections, a list of system improvement activities has been identified. The system improvements identified range from those being driven by regulatory requirements to those driven more by the functionality of the City's regional surface water management system. Table 8.3 presents a summary of recommended surface water management activities. The budget amounts City of Mounds View 45 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec included in this table should be considered planning -level cost estimates, with more specific cost estimates to be determined as the project or activity approaches. Any implementation projects will need to comply with applicable RCWD and state rules. For capital improvement projects, the City will continue to rely on its detailed 5-year capital improvement planning process to schedule and plan for funding these projects. The City creates its CIP on a five-year basis and will reassess priorities and the implementation schedule annually. For purposes of this LSWMP, the City is planning to spend an estimated $500,000 per year on stormwater system maintenance, upgrades, and retrofits for the period 2022-2028. The activities listed in Table 8.3 will be used as a reference for particular projects and activities specific to surface water management to be included in the capital improvement planning process. Potential funding sources for the activities are listed in Section 8.6; no specific mix of funding sources has yet been determined for individual projects. It should be noted that the activities identified in Table 8.3 are listed chronologically by activity category. A number of projects identified as corrective actions in Table 6.3 are for future implementation and are not scheduled within the City's 5-year capital improvement plan, and no cost estimates have yet been developed. These are shown below as post-2028, and costs are to be determined (TBD).

The future implementation activities identified below are relevant to overall surface water management within the City and should be considered in future Capital Improvement Plan discussions. Future Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Studies As discussed in Section 6.4, there is one waterbody within the City of Mounds View currently identified on the state list of Impaired Waters: Rice Creek (between an unnamed lake and Long Lake and between Long Lake and Locke Lake). In addition, three waterbodies that are outside of the City but receive discharge from the City are also on the state list of Impaired Waters: Long Lake, a downstream stretch of Rice Creek, and the Mississippi River. The City recognizes that the responsibility for completion and implementation of the TMDL studies lies with the primary stakeholders contributing to the impairment. The City intends to cooperate with the City of Mounds View 47 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (3 Stantec RCWD and other agencies in the development of the TMDL studies, acknowledging that these outside agencies will take the lead on these studies. It is the intention of the City to implement the items/actions identified in future TMDL Implementation Plans, funding the implementation items/actions as necessary. Coordinate with RCWD to Address Degraded Water Quality in Spring Lake The RCWD finalized the MAP for Spring Lake in 2009 as part of Phase II of the Southwest Urban Lakes Study. The MAP included a management approach aimed at addressing the degraded water quality in Spring Lake where the City is identified as a contributing partner. The report outlined recommendations regarding watershed management and internal lake management. Watershed management recommendations included six BMP retrofit opportunities that were identified in a preliminary field reconnaissance. The MAP also included general practices to reduce nutrient runoff that could be implemented even before data are available that can illuminate a more targeted management approach. Internal lake management recommendations included developing an aquatic vegetation management plan, developing a model to evaluate changes in the lake's water level, and assessing the feasibility and cost of curly -leaf pondweed control options. The RCWD identifies specific programs on their website (www.ricecreek.org) that are available to provide funding assistance to Mounds View for stormwater management improvements, including: ■ Urban Stormwater Remediation Cost -Share Program. • Water Quality Grant Program. Urban Water Quality Retrofit Projects The City will look for opportunities in developed areas to install retrofit water quality improvement BMPs to improve the overall water quality in Mounds View. The City will consider working with private property owners to implement improvement projects, using the City's Stormwater Infiltration Program as a model to accomplish these retrofit improvements. The RCWD identifies specific programs on their website (www.ricecreek.org) that could be applied when partnering with Mounds View, including: • Urban Stormwater Remediation Cost -Share Program. ■ Water Quality Grant Program. 8.6 POTENTIAL FUNDING Implementation of the proposed studies, programs, and improvements identified in this plan will affect City finances. A review of the City's ability to fund these studies, programs, and improvements should be completed regularly. Below is a listing of various sources of revenue that Mounds View will attempt to use: • Storm Water Management Fund. • General Fund. ■ Grant and partnership monies possibly secured from various agencies for projects. • Project funds could be obtained from watershed district levies as provided for in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103D.905 for those projects being completed by or in cooperation with the RCWD. Specific City of Mounds View 48 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec information regarding the most current RCWD cost share programs can be found on their website, as follows: www.ricecreek.org/grants. Special assessments for local improvements performed under authority of Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429. Revenue generated by Watershed Management Special Tax Districts provided for under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 473.882. Other sources potentially including tax increment financing, tax abatement, state aid, and others. The City's current primary funding source for the studies, programs, and improvements identified in this Plan is the Storm Water Management Fund. It is understood that the City regularly reviews the Fund balance and sets appropriate Fund rates to cover surface water management improvement costs. City of Mounds View 49 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec 9.0 ADMINISTRATION 9.1 REVIEW AND ADOPTION PROCESS Review and adoption of this LSWMP will follow the procedure outlined in Minnesota Statutes 10313.235: After consideration but before adoption by the governing body, each local government unit shall submit its water management plan to the watershed management organization[s] for review for consistency with the watershed plan. The organization[s] shall have 60 days to complete its review.' 'Concurrently with its submission of its local water management plan to the watershed management organization, each local government unit shall submit its water management plan to the Metropolitan Council for review and comment. The council shall have 45 days to review and comment upon the local plan. The council's 45-day review period shall run concurrently with the 60-day review period by the watershed management organization. The Metropolitan Council shall submit its comments to the watershed management organization and shall send a copy of its comments to the local government unit.' After approval of the local plan by the watershed management organization[s], the local government unit shall adopt and implement its plan within 120 days, and shall amend its official controls accordingly within 180 days ' 9.2 PLAN AMENDMENTS AND FUTURE UPDATES This Local Surface Water Management Plan will be incorporated into the City's 2040 Comprehensive Plan update and will be applicable until 2028, at which time an updated plan will be required. This timeline marks a change from previous updates; previously, Local Surface Water Management Plan updates were done when the watershed districts or watershed management organizations updated their Watershed Management Plans. Periodic amendments may be required to incorporate changes in local practices. Changes to the RCWD Watershed Management Plan may necessitate revisions to this plan. Plan amendments will be incorporated by following the review and adoption steps outlined above.

Statutory Authorization: The Legislature of the State of Minnesota has, in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103F and Chapter 462, delegated to local government units the responsibility to adopt regulations designed to minimize flood losses. Therefore, the Mounds View City Council does ordain as follows in this Chapter: Subd. 2. Findings of Fact: a. The flood hazard areas in the City are subject to periodic inundation that results in potential loss of life, loss of property, health and safety hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, and impairment of the tax base, all of which adversely affect the public health, safety, and general welfare. b. Methods Used to Analyze Flood Hazards. The City bases this Chapter on a reasonable method of analyzing flood hazards that is consistent with the standards set by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources "(DNR)". C. National Flood Insurance Program Compliance. The City adopts this Chapter to meet the rules and regulations of the National Flood Insurance Program codified as 44 Code of Federal Regulations Parts 59-78, as amended, so as to maintain the City's eligibility in the National Flood Insurance Program. Subd. 3. Statement of Purpose: It is the purpose of this Chapter to promote the public health, safety, and general welfare and to minimize the losses described above in Section 1301.01, subdivision 2 a by the provisions contained herein. 1301.02: GENERAL PROVISIONS: Subd. 1. Lands to Which this Chapter Applies: This Chapter shall apply to all lands in Mounds View shown on the Official Zoning Map and/or the attachments thereto as being within the boundaries of the Floodway, Flood Fringe, or General Flood Plain Districts. Subd. 2. Establishment of Official Zoning Map: The City hereby adopts by reference the Official Zoning Map, together with all materials attached thereto, and declares the Zoning Map to be a part of this Chapter. The attached materials shall include the Flood Insurance Study for Ramsey County, Minnesota (All Jurisdictions) and Flood Insurance Rate Map panels therein numbered 27123C0004G, 27123C0005G and 27123COO10G, all dated June 4, 2010 as prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The Official Zoning Map and attached materials shall be on file in the Offices of the City Administrator and the Community Development Director. City of Mounds View 1301.02 1301.02 Subd. 3. Regulatory Flood Protection Elevation: The regulatory flood protection elevation shall be an elevation no lower than one (1) foot above the elevation of the regional flood plus any increases in flood elevation caused by encroachments on the flood plain that result from designation of a floodway. Subd. 4. Interpretation: a. In their interpretation and application, the City and all users of this Chapter shall hold the provisions of this Chapter to be the minimum requirements and shall liberally construe the provisions in favor of the City or other regulating agency. In addition, no one shall deem any of the provisions of this Chapter a limitation or repeal of any other powers granted by State or Federal statutes. b. The boundaries of the zoning districts shall be determined by scaling distances on the Official Flood Plain Zoning Map. The Planning Commission shall make interpretations about exact location of the boundaries of a district as shown on the Official Zoning Map, as for example where there appears to be a conflict between a mapped boundary and actual field conditions and there is a formal appeal of the decision of the Community Development Director. All decisions will be based on elevations on the regional (100-year) flood profile, the ground elevations that existed on the site at the time the City adopted its initial floodplain regulations or on the date of the first National Flood Insurance Program map showing the area within the 100-year floodplain if earlier, and other available technical data. The City shall give persons contesting the location of the district boundaries a reasonable opportunity to present their case to the Planning Commission and to submit technical evidence. Subd. 5. Abrogation and Greater Restrictions: The City does not intend by this Chapter to repeal, abrogate, or impair any existing easements, covenants, or deed restrictions. However, where this Chapter imposes greater restrictions, the provisions of this Chapter shall prevail. In all cases, the provisions of Chapter 1010, wetland zoning regulation and the City surface water management plan (subject to subsequent revisions) shall be considered more restrictive than this Chapter. The City hereby repeals all other regulations or ordinances inconsistent with this Chapter to the extent of the inconsistency only. Subd. 6. Warning and Disclaimer of Liability: This Chapter does not imply that areas outside the flood plain districts or land uses permitted within such districts will be free from flooding or flood damages. This Chapter shall not create liability on the part of the City or any officer or employee thereof for any flood damage that result from reliance on this Chapter or any administrative decision lawfully made thereunder. City of Mounds View 1301.02 1301.02 Subd. 7. Severability: If a court of competent jurisdiction decides that any section, clause, provision, or portion of this Chapter is unconstitutional or invalid, then the decision shall not affect the remainder of this Chapter. Subd. 8. Definitions: For the purposes of this Chapter, the following terms, phrases, words and their derivations shall have the meanings listed in this Chapter.

Standards for Floodway District Conditional Uses: a. All Uses. The City will not allow fill (including fill for roads and levees), deposits, obstructions, or other similar uses as a conditional use that would cause any increase in the stage of a 100-year or regional flood or cause an increase in flood damage in the reach or reaches affected. b. All conditional uses in the Floodway District shall be subject to the procedures and standards set forth in Section 130 1. 10 subdivision 4 of this Chapter. C. The conditional use shall be permissible in the underlying City zoning district. d. Fill, subject to the following standards: (1) The property owner or contractor shall protect fill, dredge spoil, and all other similar materials that they deposit or store in the flood plain from erosion by vegetative cover, mulching, riprap or other method acceptable to the City. (2) The City does not allow dredge spoil sites and sand and gravel operations in the Floodway District unless the owner or operator submits a long-term site development plan to the City that includes an erosion/sedimentation prevention element to the plan. (3) As an alternative, and consistent with Subsection (2) above, dredge spoil disposal and sand and gravel operations may allow temporary, on -site storage of fill or other materials that would have caused an increase to the stage of 100-year or regional flood. The City will only allow such storage only if City has received a plan that assures the removal of the materials from the floodway based upon the available time after a flood warning. The City or the property owner must record the conditional use permit against the title of the property in the Ramsey County Recorder's Office. e. Storage of Materials and Equipment. The City may allow the storage of other materials or equipment if readily removable from the area in the time available after a flood warning and according to a plan approved by the City. The City prohibits the storage or processing of materials that are, in time of flooding, flammable, explosive, or potentially injurious to human, animal, or plant life. City of Mounds View 1301.05 1301.05: FLOOD FRINGE DISTRICT (FF): 1301.05 Subd. 1. Permitted Uses: The permitted uses in the flood fringe district are all those uses of land or structures listed in Title 1100 of the City Code as permitted uses in the underlying zoning district(s). All permitted uses must meet the standards for Flood Fringe District "Permitted Uses" listed in Section 1301.05, subdivision 2 set forth below and the "Standards for All Flood Fringe Uses" listed in Section 1301.05, subdivision 5 of this Chapter. Subd. 2. Standards for Flood Fringe District Permitted Uses: a. All structures in the Flood Fringe district, including accessory structures, must be elevated on fill so that the lowest floor (including the basement floor) is at or above the regulatory flood protection elevation. The finished fill elevation for structures shall be no lower than one (1) foot below the regulatory flood protection elevation. The fill shall extend at such elevations at least fifteen (15) feet beyond the outside limits of the structure on the property. City of Mounds View 1301.05 1301.05 b. As an alternative to elevation on fill, owners of accessory structures in the flood fringe that constitute a minimal investment and that do not exceed five hundred (500) square feet in area may flood proof such structures according to the following standards: (1) Owners shall not intend, design, nor construct accessory structures for human habitation. (2) Accessory structures must be elevated on fill or structurally dry flood proofed according to the FP-1 or FP-2 flood proofing classifications in the Minnesota State Building Code. As an alternative, an owner may flood proof an accessory structure to the FP-3 or FP-4 flood proofing classification in the Minnesota State Building Code. For a detached garage, the owner must use the detached garage solely for parking of vehicles and limited storage. All flood proofed accessory structures must meet the following additional standards: (a) Accessory structures must be adequately anchored to prevent flotation, collapse or lateral movement of the structure and shall be designed and constructed to equalize hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls; (b) All mechanical and utility equipment in the accessory structure must be elevated to or above the regulatory flood protection elevation or properly flood proofed; and (c) To allow for the equalization of hydrostatic pressure, there must be a minimum of two (2) "automatic" openings in the outside walls of the accessory structure having a total net area of not less than one (1) square inch for every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding. There must be openings on at least two (2) sides of the structure and the bottom of all openings must be no higher than one (1) foot above the lowest adjacent grade to the structure. Using human intervention to open a garage door before flooding will not satisfy this requirement for automatic openings. C. The cumulative placement of fill on a parcel where at any one time is in excess of one thousand (1,000) cubic yards shall be allowed only as a conditional use, unless said fill is specifically intended to elevate a structure to meet the requirements of Section 1301.05, subdivision 2 of this Chapter. d. Property owners and users shall store or park any materials or equipment on fill to an elevation at or above the regulatory flood protection elevation. e. The provisions of Section 1301.05, subdivision 5 of this Chapter shall apply. City of Mounds View 1301.05 1301.05 Subd. 3. Conditional Uses: The City shall only allow structures that are not elevated on fill or flood proofed according to Sections 1301.05, subdivision 2a and 2b of this Chapter and or any use of land that does not meet the standards in Sections 1301.05, subdivision 2c and 2d as a conditional use. An application for a conditional use permit shall be subject to the standards and criteria and evaluation procedures specified in Sections 1301.05, subdivision 4 and subdivision 5 and 1 in 1301.10, subdivision 4 of this Chapter, those standards and procedures set forth in Title 1100 of the City Code and elsewhere in the City Code. City of Mounds View 1301.05 1301.05 Subd. 4. Standards for Flood Fringe Conditional Uses: a. An owner may use alternative elevation methods other than the use of fill to elevate a structure's lowest floor above the regulatory flood protection elevation. These alternative methods may include the use of stilts, pilings, parallel walls, etc., or above - grade, enclosed areas such as crawl spaces or tuck under garages. The City shall consider the base or floor of an enclosed area above -grade and not a structure's basement or lowest floor if. 1) the enclosed area is above -grade on at least one (1) side of the structure; 2) it is designed and constructed to internally flood and is constructed with flood resistant materials; and 3) the owner uses it solely for parking of vehicles, building access or storage. The above -noted alternative elevation methods are subject to the following additional standards: (1) Design and Certification: A licensed professional engineer or architect must certify that the structure's design and as -built condition meets the general design standards of the Minnesota State Building Code. Specifically, all electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities must be at or above the regulatory flood protection elevation or be designed and constructed to prevent flood water from entering or accumulating in these components during times of flooding. (2) Specific Standards for Above -grade, Enclosed Areas: Owners and contractors shall design and construct above -grade, fully enclosed areas such as crawl spaces or tuck under garages to internally flood with design and construction plans that stipulate: (a) A minimum area of automatic openings in the walls where internal flooding is to be used as a flood proofing technique. There shall be a minimum of two (2) openings on at least two sides of the structure and the bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one (1) foot above grade. The automatic openings shall have a minimum net area of not less than one (1) square inch for every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding unless a licensed professional engineer or architect certifies that a smaller net area would suffice. The owner or contractor may equip the automatic openings with screens, louvers, valves, or other coverings or devices if such devices permit the automatic entry and exit of flood waters without any form of human intervention; and (b) That the enclosed area will be designed and constructed of flood resistant materials in accordance with the standards of the FP-3 or FP-4 classifications in the Minnesota State Building Code and that the owner or occupants shall only use such areas for building access, vehicle parking or storage. City of Mounds View 1301.05 1301.05 b. Basements, as defined by Section 1301.02, subdivision 8, b. of this Chapter, shall be subject to the following requirements: (1) The City does not permit residential basement construction below the regulatory flood protection elevation. (2) The City may permit non-residential basements below the regulatory flood protection elevation provided the basement is structurally dry flood proofed according to the standards listed in Section 1301.05, subdivision 4 c (below) of this Chapter. C. All areas of non-residential structures (including basements) that would be below the regulatory flood protection elevation shall be flood proofed to meet the structurally dry flood proofing classifications in the Minnesota State Building Code. Structurally dry flood proofing must meet the FP-1 or FP-2 flood proofing classification in the Minnesota State Building Code. This flood proofing shall require making the structure watertight with the walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and the effects of buoyancy. The City does not allow structures in the flood fringe that the owners have flood proofed to the FP-3 or FP-4 classification in the Minnesota State Building Code. The City does not allow residential structures in the flood fringe that the owners have dry -flood proofed to the FP-1 or FP-2 flood proofing classification in the Minnesota State Building Code. d. When at any one time a property owner or contractor wants to locate more than one thousand (1,000) cubic yards of fill or other similar material on a parcel for activities such as on -site storage, landscaping, sand and gravel operations, landfills, roads, dredge spoil disposal or construction of flood control works, the owner or contractor shall submit an erosion/sedimentation control plan to the City for approval. The plan must clearly specify methods that an owner or contractor shall use to stabilize the fill on site for a flood event at a minimum of the 100-year or regional flood event. A registered professional engineer must prepare the plan. The plan may incorporate alternative procedures for removal of the material from the flood plain if adequate flood warning time exists. e. Storage of Materials and Equipment: (1) The City prohibits the storage or processing of materials that are, in time of flooding, flammable, explosive, or potentially injurious to human, animal, or plant life. (2) The City may allow the storage of other materials or equipment if they would be readily removable from the area within the time available after a flood warning is given and according to a plan that the City has approved.

All new principal structures in the flood fringe district must have vehicular access at or above an elevation not more than two (2) feet below the regulatory flood protection elevation. If the City approves a variance from this requirement, the City must specify limitations on the period of use or occupancy of the structure for times of flooding. In order to approve a variance from this requirement, the City must determine that adequate flood warning time and local flood emergency response procedures exist. b. Commercial Uses: Accessory commercial land uses, such as yards, railroad tracks, and parking lots (if allowed by the underlying City zoning designation) may be at elevations lower than the regulatory flood protection elevation. However, the City shall not approve a permit for such facilities for use by employees or by the general public in the absence of a flood warning system. Such a flood warning system shall provide adequate time for evacuation if the area would be inundated to a depth and velocity such that when multiplying the depth (in feet) times velocity (in feet per second) the product number exceeds four (4) upon occurrence of the regional flood. C. Manufacturing and Industrial Uses: Owners and operators of manufacturing and industrial uses shall take measures to minimize the interference of normal plant operations from flooding, especially those sites along streams or creeks that have protracted flood durations. Certain accessory land uses such as yards and parking lots may be at lower elevations subject to requirements set out in Section 1301.05, subdivision 5 b above. In considering development or permit applications for manufacturing or industrial uses, the City shall give due consideration to the needs of an industry whose business requires that it be located in flood plain areas. d. Contractors shall properly compact fill and properly protect the slopes by using riprap, vegetative cover or other acceptable methods. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has established criteria for removing the special flood hazard area designation for structures properly elevated on fill above the 100-year flood elevation. FEMA's requirements incorporate specific fill compaction and side slope protection standards for multi -structure or multi -lot developments. The owner or contractor should investigate these standards before starting the site preparation if requesting a change of special flood hazard area designation. e. Flood plain developments shall not adversely affect the hydraulic capacity of the channel and adjoining flood plain of any tributary watercourse or drainage system where the City has not specified a floodway or other encroachment limit on the Official Zoning Map. City of Mounds View 1301.05 l 30l .06 f. Section 1301.09, subdivision 3 of this Chapter lists the standards for the placement and use of recreational vehicles in the Flood Fringe District. g. Owners and contractors shall securely anchor all manufactured homes to an adequately anchored foundation system that resists flotation, collapse and lateral movement. Methods of anchoring may include, but are not to be limited to, use of over - the -top or frame ties to ground anchors. This requirement is in addition to applicable state or local anchoring requirements for resisting wind forces. 1301.06: PROCEDURES FOR DETERMINING ONE PERCENT ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD ELEVATIONS (100-YEAR FLOOD ELEVATIONS) IN AREAS LOCATED IN ZONE A OF THE FLOOD INSURANCE RATE MAP PANELS: Subd. 1.

The public interest necessitates sound land use development as land is a limited and irreplaceable resource and the land within the Municipality is a resource to be developed in a manner which will result in minimum damage to the quality of life and to property and threat to health and reductions of private and public economic loss caused by drainage problems. Subd. 2. The existing drainage system in Mounds View, in general, adequately meets the needs of the City. However, the storm drainage system will not, in the future, provide adequate or proper drainage in those areas of the City subject to substantial residential, commercial or industrial development unless the large increase in storm water runoff that is known to result from such development is properly controlled and regulated. The consequence of not restricting such increase in runoff would be to subject a major portion of the lands of the City to high water tables, drainage problems, storm water flooding by heavy rains, inadequate drainage facilities, causing erosion, damage to property, disruption of residential, commercial and governmental services, unsanitary conditions and interruptions of transportation, all of which would be detrimental to the health, safety, welfare and property of affected residents of the City.

To guide and control new development of lands within the City in ways that will be consistent with the zoning laws2 and Comprehensive Development Plan in force at the time of the development, consistent with the requirements of Rice Creek Watershed District, Municipal Code, Minnesota Statutes and other regulatory agencies and consistent with sound economic policies as such policies affect property owners and the proponents of new developments and to require proponents of new developments to adopt sound development plans and proposals that will cause no economic burden both as to storm waters or drainage on the owners of abutting or adjoining properties or affected properties or on the property owners of the City at large. Subd. 2. Applicability: a. The requirements adopted herein shall apply to all development proposals that are subject to the provisions of Section 1006.06 of this Code. b. If this Chapter or any provision herein is held to be applicable to any person, property or work, such holding shall not affect the applicability hereof to any other person, property or work.

(Amended, Ord. 786, 5-23-07) City of Mounds View APPENDIX E - PERMITTING DOCUMENTS City of Mounds View 56 Local Surface Water Management Plan Stantec Project No. 193804166 (5 5tantec Cityof Mounds View Protocol Guide for Issuing Permits Upon completion of a Rice Creek Watershed District Board approved Local Surface Water Management Plan and satisfactory City Ordinances, the City will enter into a Memorandum of Understanding which will cease Rice Creek Watershed District's administration of permits within the City for the following Rice Creek Watershed District Rules: • Rule C, Stormwater Management Plans • Rule D, Erosion and Sediment Control Plans • Rule E, Floodplain Alteration • Rule F, Wetland Alteration Pursuant to the Rice Creek Watershed District Watershed Management Plan Chapter 8.3.2 the City of Mounds View must also formulate inspection and administrative procedures necessary to ensure that the full regulatory standards of the District are met. This should include the following listed below: 1. Written procedural protocol for permit application review 2. Hydrologic/hydraulic data transmittal as it relates to the District model 3. Record keeping and Audit procedure The District will cease to administer the identified rules within the City and the City must demonstrate an equivalent administration as well as applicant compliance with the Rules. By adopting ordinances, which reference the District rules verbatim, it is important to note that the City will be enforcing its own ordinances. It should be noted that the District may periodically amend any given rule and the City will be responsible to administer the rules through their ordinance to be consistent with their adoption date. The District will communicate any potential rule change through the statutory process for rule adoption. The City will complete the items listed below as requested by the District. If the City were to ever decide that they no longer wanted to administer their ordinances which reference RCWD rules within its jurisdiction, the District would want records of any permit application to be consistent and as detailed as any permit issued by the District. 1. RCWD Permit Application Review and Closeout Procedure a. Permit Application Review i. During the first year or at the time that the first permits are issued by the City, the District and the City will complete a joint permit review to ensure that the City understands the requirements and expectations of the District's rules. This review will consist of the City sitting down with the RCWD permitting engineer to review plans and permit specificities. ii. Permit application review must develop a record documenting the project review in comparison with District rules. Permit application review for the City will include a checklist to document the proposal, the applicable rule criterion, and facts relevant to finding the criteria are met and in compliance with District rules; a file containing these documents will be maintained for a period of 10 years. iii. All administration is to be pursuant to MN § 15.99. iv. As part of the development review process, the City Council shall approve the final issuance of a permit. v. The City will choose to not incorporate a legal review process for issuing permits. vi. The City will provide the District with the required documentation demonstrating the maintenance obligations for Best Management Practices (BMPs), such as stormwater basins, used to meet the permit requirements. The City will also provide documentation on how these BMPs will be maintained. vii. Permit applications that trigger the need for an easement in the District's favor, such as those along the public drainage system, will be recognized early in the review process by the City and directed to the District to ensure that the appropriate easement is obtained. b. Permit Closeout Procedure i. As part of the final close-out procedures, the City will require as -built plans or some verification that the BMP meets the approved plans and is functioning as designed. As-builts will verify the required treatment volume, emergency overflow elevations, inlet/outlet/sump elevations, drain tile elevations, surface contours, etc. ii. The City will require and ensure inspection of a 48 or 72-hour drawdown of all infiltration and filtration features. This will be completed by City contracted personnel. iii. The City will provide documentation showing all permit stipulations have been met. Stipulations typically include an as -built survey of stormwater features, quantification of floodplain or wetlands impact and mitigation areas, etc. iv. The City will require establishment of 70% vegetative cover prior to permit closure. Once established, all sediment and erosion control measures must be removed. 2. Hydrologic/Hydraulic Data Transmittal a. The City will provide the items listed below at the District's request. i. Submittals of GIS shape files with the location of the permits. ii. Submittal of Rule F, Wetland Alteration, digital file requirements, which include: 1. A GIS shapefile of all delineated boundaries. 2. For on -site replacement wetland and buffer areas, a GIS or CADD file documenting sign locations. iii. The District regularly updates a District Wide Model and requests the transmittal of any hydrologic and hydraulic data for permitted projects that may pertain to it. This may include things like altering drainage patterns, replacing culverts, etc. Most likely this is only relevant for RCWD Rule C as the District will retain permit authority for culvert structures under Rule G, Crossings of Natural & Artificial Conveyance Systems and Rules I, Drainage Systems. iv. RCWD Rule C.2 (c) and (d) include provisions for cumulative impacts to trigger the rule. Therefore, it is possible for some work to have occurred under the District's jurisdiction, and any additional work thereafter to trigger regulation under the City's assumption of sole rule administration. For that reason, please be advised that the District's files are available for consideration of cumulative impacts. 3. Audit Process a. The City will provide up to two of the permits issued by the City annually to the District for review. b. The City will require that all exhibits required as part of a selected permit to be submitted for the audit process. As part of the review process, the City will require, but is not limited to, the following: i. A full set of project plans. ii. Soil borings at the BMP locations, reflecting compliance with approved design. iii. Drainage maps showing disturbed existing impervious surface and proposed impervious surfaces, and a summary tabulation. iv. Calculations used to determine the required runoff rates/volumes. v. Identification of the specific location of all BMP(s) and associated formal and/or recorded maintenance agreements. vi. Any increase in impervious area requires either a hydrologic model, or additional calculations to show compliance with Peak Stormwater Runoff Control. vii. Guidance Worksheets or supporting calculations used to determine water quality volumes. viii. As-builts were obtained and show compliance with approved design and water quality treatment volumes.

They requested to add drive time for employees required to travel to work on weekends and holidays for snow and ice control operations, or due to utility emergencies, weather emergencies, or other hazards. Due to the timing, the negotiating team requested the prepared document be presented to Council for approval and further discussions commence regarding the possible addition of paid travel time for weekends and holidays via a future Memorandum of Understanding.

Staff met in June with the Public Works Collective Bargaining Representatives to provide feedback from the HR Committee discussion. Staff requested to meet again with the Representatives to confirm their intentions to follow through with the Memorandum of Understanding on September 30, 2020.

The unit is scheduled to be replaced in 2023. The wheel loader is primarily used for snow removal operations and utility repair work, i.e. water main breaks, storm sewer repairs. The wheel loader was observed to be in fair to good condition and the life of the unit could be extended with a minor overhaul, i.e. (replacing hoses, brakes and other wear items). The replacement date of the unit would be re- evaluated in 5 years, with the goal of not replacing it for another 10 years. As the contractor (Titan Machinery) began the inspection and assessment of needed repairs, the estimated repair costs quickly outpaced the 2020 budget of $25,000.00. Staff met with the Finance Director and reviewed the estimated repair cost of $100,411.00 from Titan Machinery for unit #423. Staff also reviewed the replacement cost of a New Wheel Loader off State Contract, the Cooperative Purchasing Venture Program (CPV). Staff reviewed and tested different models of wheel loaders and determined that the Caterpillar Model 926M Wheel Loader would best meet the needs of Public Works Operations. Staff received a quote from Ziegler Cat for the New Wheel Loader for $209,320.00. Ziegler also provided a trade in value of $33,000.00 for unit #423 for a final cost of $176,120.00 for a new Caterpillar Wheel Loader model 926M. To be funded out of the Vehicle and Equipment Fund, 460-4470-7030 Strategic Plan Strategy/Goal: Maintain and Plan for Infrastructure Improvements. Financial Impact: A budget adjustment is required in the 2020 Operating Budget of $209,320.00, in the Vehicle and Equipment Fund, 460-4470-7030. Recommendation: Staff recommends that Council approve a 2020 Budget Adjustment in the Vehicle and Equipment Fund 460-4470-7030 of $209,320.00. Staff further recommends the City Council approve the quote from Zeigler CAT of Minneapolis, MN for $209,320.00 for the purchase of a new Wheel Loader, Model 926M, including a trade in value of $33,200.00 The Mounds View Visioi.
