WHEREAS, since the establishment of the Ramsey County Muni-
cipal Court System in 1975, considerable discussion has taken place
e,.rAinn hha ornani7tation of the system; and
WHEREAS, since 1981 this discussion has resulted in the
development of several proposals to consolidate the existing six
court locations in studies by both the County and the Ramsey
County League of Local Governments; and
WHEREAS, a recent study completed by Ramsey County staff
entitled, "Ramsey County Suburban Municipal Court Consolidations.
A Preliminary Cost -Effectiveness Study", dated January 5, 1984,
has renewed discussion on this subject; and
WHEREAS, as a result of this most recent study the Public
Safety and Justice Committee of the Ramsey County Board of
Commissioners has directed the Countv's Executive Director to
conduct a study of the court system's space needs as part of a
suburban multi -service center; and
WHEREAS, the City of Mounds View recognizes this most
recent action as a turning point on this issue with municipal
court consolidation being considered as part of an overall effort
to bring Cuunty services to the suburbs; and

dation in a different light and the results of this study has the
potential for greater impact upon the suburbs than consolidation
alone; and
WHEREAS, the suburbs have a vested interest in this new
direction both from the standpoint of court consolidation and
increased County services; and
WHEREAS, the Mounds View City Council feels that such
new direction should be part of a cooperative effort of the County

services in the suburbs.

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk -Administrate
DATE: February 29, 1984
SUBJECT: DRAFT 1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Attached please find a draft of the 1983 Long -Term Financial Plan
for your consideration. I apologize for the significant delay
in submitting this Plan to you. It was my desire to include the
information from all of the maintenance studies in the Capital
Improvement Program and Capital Budget and now that the Street
Maintenance Study has been completed this information has been
made part of the Long -Term Financial Plan as submitted.
It is my intention that once the council i,aa alvpLad t:c 1483
Long -Term Financial Plan staff will immediately commence prepara-
tion of the 1984 Long -Term Financial Plan in order that it might
be presented and, hopefully, adopted prior to the 1984 budget
process as I feel it is imperative that the information developed
as part of the Long -Term Financial Plan planning process be
included in the budget preparation process.
Staff would request any Council feedback on this draft 1983 Long
Term Financial Plan in order that we might proceed with its
adoption and move right into the preparation of the 1984 Long
Term Financial Plan.

1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
INTRODUCTION 10
On December 4, 1979, the voters of Mounds View adopted the City's
first Home Rule Charter which established several requirements
for the City Council and appointed staff regarding financial
planning for the City. One of the requirements, Section 7.05,
calls for the annual preparation and adoption of a Long -Term
Financial Plan by the City Council.
The Long -Term Financial Plan, consisting of four elements: Public
Service Program, Capital Improvements Plan, Long -Term Revenue
Dnnnr am and ran i+al DuAn & --....:a
......ate., pi 1uc luny-, opyC 1 llicit-
cial planning on which an annual budget should be based. Thus,
the annual budgetary process shall be compatible from year to
year and provide for the necessary historical perspective in
order to know "where we are and where we are going".
The 1983 Long -Term Financial Plan has been prepared with the
knowledge that the 1980's will present government with the chal-
lenge of continuing to provide essential public services at a
time when revenues are remaining stable or decreasing. This
Long -Term Financial Plan is being presented in the spirit that
government can make improvements in its operations so as to place
less of a burden on the local taxpayers and "do more for less".
i
PUBLIC SERVICE PROGRAM f
The Public Service Program, as outlined by Section 7.05,
Subdivision 2, is to be:
a continuing five-year plan for all public services
estimating future needs for the public health, safety, and
welfare of the City. It shall measure the needs and objec-
tives for each City Department, the standard of services
desired, and the impact of each such service on the annual
operating budget."
Included in the 1983 Public Service Program are organizational
charts showing the present organization and staffing of the
City's Departments. Attached as Appendix A is the present
organizational chart of the City down to the departmental level.
The following is a review of each individual Department, an out-
line of its basic objectives, an assessment of its needs in order
to meet those objectives, and a determination of what effect
those needs will have on the City's annual budget.
A. Administration - The administration portion of the Public
Service Program encompasses a wide variety of activities
which need to be addressed individually. These individual
areas of activity are City Council, Commissions, Elections,
City Hall, Legal and Fire, and Clerk -Administrator's Office.
1983 LONG-TER14 FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Two
1) City Council - The City Council is comprised of five
elected officials; Mayor and four Councilmembers, serving
non-consecutive terms who, as a body, are responsible for
the administration of the City. Basically, the objec-
tives of the City Council are identical to those of the
City's Departments, as the Council sets the policies
which determine each Department's objectives, It is
anticipated that the level of service provided by the
City Council, as it relates to being a division of the
Administration Department, will not be changed and any
increased impact on the budget may result from infla-
tionary factors, possible compensation increases for the
Reecurding 3e'-1'ULal y, or irlti fcco, dVFJ, rth 1
expenses contained within the City Council budget.
2) Commissions - The City has a variety of active commis-
sions including Planning, Charter, Festivities, Civil
Service, and Parks and Recreation, which serve as
advisory bodies to the City Council and, when functioning
jointly with other political subdivisions, operate as an
administrative body responsible to the City Council. An
example of the latter is the North Suburban Cable
Communications Commission, a consortium of 10 suburban
municipalities established to coordinate the franchising
of Cable TV service in the 10 municipalities, of which
the City is a member.
It is not anticipated that the activities of the City's
Commissions will modify in such a way as to signifi-
cantly impact upon the budget. Any increases are
expected to result from increases in training costs,
Recording Secretary salary, and increased operating cost
for the Festival in the Park.
3) Elections - The election activities of the City are
united to the maintenance of the Voter Registration
Card files, provision and maintenance of voting and
ballot counting equipment, and supplies and adminis-
trative services, including election judges, necessary
for the legal and efficient conduct of elections. Except
for possible increases in capital expenditures for the
purchase of new equipment, it is not anticipated that
basic election services will change over the next five
years except when special elections are held, which
cannot be anticipated, or the State or Federal govern-
ments modify the rules and regulations for the conduct of
elections in such a way that increased expenditures are
required.
With the increasing complexity of elections resulting
from large voter turnouts and the increased numbers of
issues on the ballot, it is felt that the City's three
ballot counting machines are no longer adequate for our
purposes. These machines must be hand fed resulting in
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Three
significant time expenditures for counting ballots, as
well as frequent overheating of the machines. Also, the
printouts are of a nature requiring explanatory attach-
ments in order to be able to determine the results. It
is proposed that over the next five years the existing
machines be retrofitted or new machines purchased which
will expedite the ballot counting process by eliminating
the overheating problem and improving the printout
quality thereby ensuring accuracy in the transfer of
information to the various forms mandated by State law.
4) City_Hal1 - The City Hall Division of the Administration
Department provides tor the maintenance and uperdiiun ui
the City Hall building, personnel services costs for the
part-time Receptionist position, office supplies, post-
age, and liability and automobile insurance premiums. It
is anticipated that the level of service provided by this
division will not increase over the next five years,
however, it is projected that utility and other costs
will increase, thus, resulting in this division taking an
increasing share of the City's operating budget.
5) Legal and Fire - Legal and fire protection services are
provided by contracting individuals or agencies, with the
level of service being determined by the demand for such
service and the expense for such service to the City
being determined by them. Thus, increases in service
cannot be predicted and the cost for such services,
although expected to increase, should remain on a pro-
portional basis.
6) Clerk -Administrator's Office - The position of Clerk
Section � ni of the Home
Administrator is estdblisheu Uy ,��� �.,
Rule Charter with Section 6.03 outlining the duties of
the Clerk -Administrator. Basically, the duties of the
Clerk -Administrator and, as a result, the Clerk
Administrator's Office can be summarized as follows:
a. All of the duties and responsibilities of a City
Clerk in a statutory city including the conduct of
elections, maintenance of all municipal records and
accounts, and issuance of all licenses and permits,
except for building permits and contractor's
licenses.
b. Assist the City Council in the administration of City
affairs including the supervision of its employees,
programs and activities, and labor contracts.
J
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Four
c. Prepare and submit to the City Council reports
relating to municipal projects and/or improvements,
periodic financial reports, annual operating budget,
long-term financial plan, capital improvement plan,
and annual financial statements.
d. Develop and maintain good public relations with the
general public through the preparation and dissemi-
nation of news releases and other information, an
annual report on the financial condition of the City
and other efforts.
Prs. i
UILy 5 dcLivities with outside
agencies and consultants.
The level of service provided by the Clerk -Administrator's
Office, staffed by the Clerk -Administrator and Administra-
tive Secretary, are dictated by the Home Rule Charter,
statutory or local policy requirements, and the activities
of the City Council, City Commissions and Committees, and
other City Departments and consultants.
In 1983 the City purchased two word processor/micro
processors to improve the City's ability to deal with the
ever growing demand for information. One of these units
was placed in the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Depart-
ment Office and has been used solely for records manage-
ment and word processing functions. The second unit is
located in the general office area of City Hall and is
used for word processing, records management, and serves as
the remote entry station for the handling of all the City's
utility b111-Ing and accounting functions handled by Rafiisey
County Data Processing. Negotiations are in progress with
Ramsey County to allow the City to access property record
information and maintain the City's voter registration
records through this station.
The heavy demands on the two units has resulted in a
backlog of work that should be on the automated system
and as more information is put on the system, the greater
the demand for access time will be. Thus, it is proposed
that a third unit dedicated solely for word processing
and records management be purchased, with the unit in use
in the City Hall office area being dedicated for remote job
entry purposes only. This third machine is estimated to
cost $13,000 and is proposed to be purchased in 1985.
The City is required to maintain, on a permanent basis, a
large quantity of paper records, e.g., minutes, ordi-
nances, resolutions, blueprints of all buildings in the
City, and non- computerized accounting records, by State
law. Over the first 25 years of the City's history the
quantity of material in storage has increased significantly
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Five
to the point that the City's storage capacity is over
burdened. At the present time City staff, with the
assistance of the State of Minnesota Records Management
Division, is performing an analysis to determine the best
options for resolving this records management problem.
It is anticipated that the results of this evaluation
will be a recommendation to implement a micrographics
records management program which will require the
expenditure of funds for the purchase of equipment,
supplies, and micrographic services. It is anticipated
that these monies will be proposed for the 1985 and 1986
budgets, with the inclusion of cost projections in the
_,
173 LV�1y-TCi iii 1 ilaGC1 1 r.uii.
Except for the aforementioned capital equipment items,
there are no major increases in service anticipated over
the next five years and only proportional increases in
expenditures are expected to occur.
B. Finance - The Finance Department, headed by the Finance
Director, who also serves as Treasurer, coordinates the
financial activities of the City. Current departmental
activities include the following:
1)' Utility billing preparation and collection, and the t
annual analysis of user fees and fee structures.
2) Receipt and management of all municipal revenues,
including the analysis of cash flow patterns and the
establishment of cash management guidelines.
3) Accounts payable and payroll preparation and control.
4) Preparation of monthly financial reports and the Annual
Financial Statement.
5) Directs the investment of temporarily idle municipal
funds.
6) As directed by the Clerk -Administrator, coordinates the
preparation of the Annual Budget and assists in the
preparation of the Long -Term Financial Plan.
7) Recommends controls for consideration and/or adoption by
the City Council and oversees debt management.
8) Supervises the City's purchasing and insurance programs.
Due to the increased involvement of Finance Department staff
in the preparation of the City's annual Financial Statements
and audit workpapers, as well as the more exacting standards
of the City's present auditing firm, the Finance Department
has found itself incapable of becoming as fully involved as
they would desire in these activities while keeping current
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Six
with their regular duties. Therefore, the Finance Department
has added the position of a 1/4 time Accounting Clerk who
will assist in the day-to-day functions, thus, allowing
full-time staff greater opportunity to work on the Financial
Statements. This position is budgeted at an annual cost of
$2,852.00.

Parks, Recreation, and Forestry - The major goal of the
Parks, Recreation, a 3 Forestry Department is to develop a
comprehensive and balanced system of parks, open space,
trails, and leisure oriented programs for all residents of
Mounds View in as economies 3 manner as pass The four
elements necessary to accomplish these goals and the objec-
tives of each element are as follows:
Recreation Programs - The overriding recreation objective
is the continued enrichment and growth of Mounds View
residents through leisure education and recreation pro-
gram opportunities for all City residents.
Forestry Program - The primary objective of the Forestry
Program is to preserve and supplement the existing floral
canopy in Mounds View and to provide additional services
relative to plants for the enjoyment and education of the
City's residents.
Parks and Recreation Facilities - To develop and imple-
ment a comprehensive park and recreation areas and
facilities plan for the City in accordance with accepted
standards and the needs and interests of the community.
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Seven
It is projected that over the next five years the Depart-
ment's Parks and Recreation Division will continue to grow at
a controlled level with the Park Maintenance Division
experiencing significant growth. There are four major
factors that are felt will be impacting upon the future of
the Department. They are as follows:
1. Silver View Park Phase I development has been completed
and has increased the City's maintainable park acreage
by 38.5%, from 91 acres to 126 acres. In addition to the
issue of increased turf maintenance, the extent to which
the pond at Silver View Park will impact upon the City's
park maintenance responsibilities has not haan roc�i.,.a
2. With the Edgewood Junior High School facilities being u
converted to a Community Center use on a full time basis,
the Department envisions an expansion in the programming
of recreation activities. At this time, the Department
will be responsible for coordinating the pool in its
entirety from 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 p.m. on a Monday
through Saturday basis. In addition to the swimmming
Pool responsibilities, the gymnasiums will provide
additional programming potential.
3: Park development will continue at some level whether it
be additional construction of shelter buildings, Phase II
of Silver View Park, or small neighborhood park projects.
4. The Forestry Program continues to expand with additional
plantings each year, as well as an increase in the formal
flower planting which is currently being maintained by a
part-time City Forester and two part-time assistants.
This projected growth will result in the nntnntial need for
ddditionai personnel in the Park Maintenance Division only,
with part-time staff supplementing existing full time per-
sonnel in other areas. The projected need for staff
increases is as follows:
Park Maintenance Laborer - with the addition of Silver
View Park, the City will need to take a serious look at
the possible addition of one man to maintain existing
parks at the level currently provided, funded out of the
General Fund at an estimated cost of $25,000, The City
has, in the past, and will continue to pursue the concept
of contractual maintenance from the private sector.
Should the private sector concept prove to be effective,
there would not be a need for an additional park main-
tenance laborer.
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Eight
2. Aquatics Supervisor - it is anticipated that there will
continue to be the need for this part-time position,
which began in 1983, for the coordination of the City's
Aquatics Program which would be funded from the Lakeside
Park budget and the City's Recreation Activity Fund at a
projected cost of $6,000 to $8,000 annually.
3. Part-time Park Maintenance/Forestry Personnel - the Park
Maintenance Division currently has just one part-time
maintenance position to supplement the two full time
positions and has been blessed with an excellent summer
rh- Cit CdS tc 1, �t �f rho
�.G.I.H. ]loft. . � �.•j .� v � .0gn..�„
fact that the summer C.E.T.A. program provides an
invaluable service and should that program ever be
cancelled a portion of the program, which is currently
being funded at the $18,000 level, would need to be
replaced. It is proposed that a second part-time posi-
tion be included in the 1984 budget for 100 days at
$5.00/hour or $2,000 per summer. This position would be
responsible for forestry actvities during the peak Spring
and Fall periods, as well as park turf management during
the summer months.
It is proposed that the responsibilities for park maintenance
and oversight of the park maintenance crew remain as it
currently exists with the Public Works Foreman coordinating
on a daily basis with the Parks, Recreation and Forestry
Director. This change from the 1981 Public Service Program
is based on the positive working relationship between these
two individuals that has evolved during the past year.
Although the most efficient and effective way to manage the
Park Maintenance Division, should additional staff be added,
would be to place it under the direction of the Parks,
Recreation and Forestry Department, it is felt that the
organization should remain as it presently is at this time.
The Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department Organizational
Chart, reflecting all proposed changes, would appear as shown

Public Works/Community Develo ment - In May of 1982 the rity
Council determined that, as a result of the retirement of a
maintenance man and other personnel changes requested by
members of the Public Works Department, the time was ripe to
undertake a reorganization of the City's Building and Zoning
and Public Works Departments. After an evaluation of the
City's needs and in consideration of recommendations outlined
in the Public Works portion of the. 1981 Long -Term Financial
Plan Public Service Program, the following actions were
taken:
1. The City's Building and Zoning Department was phased out
.44tL ♦LJ..♦
the duties of UaL Department coming under the
Community Development Division of the new Public
Works/Community Development Department.
2. The position of Building and Zoning Official was phased
out, with the individual holding that position assuming
the duties and title of Building Inspector.
3. The position of Public Works Superintendent was phased
out, with the majority of the position's duties being
' assumed by the newly created position of Public Works
Foreman.
4. The position of Director of Public Works/Community
Development was created to assume the management of the
new Public Works/Community Development Department and
provide the technical (engineering) and management
expertise needed to assist the Department in making the
transition from that of one oriented towards accommo-
dating growth of the community and its nphlic systems to
one of increased attention to the maintenance and
replacement of an aging infrastructure. Also, with the
required engineering background, this position can
provide the expertise necessary to assist the City in
preserving our wetlands and implementing the provisions
of our Storm Water Management Plan.
It is anticipated that this reorganization will not result in
an increased cost to the City due to the fact that certain
revenues previously passed through to private consulting
firms, e.g, plat reviews, will now be retained by the City
and used to offset personnel costs.

E. Police/Civil Defense - The basic objective of the Police
Department is to preserve the peace and protect the public by
enforcing State and local laws. Basic services provided by
the Department include law enforcement, youth counseling,
traffic control, crime prevention, animal control, community
relations, school resource officer, and civil defense.
At the present time the Department employs an Investigator
and one Juvenile Officer, with both officers assisting one
another as the assigned case warrants it. The Patrol Divi-
sion consists of one Sergeant, two Corporals, and -six Patrol-
men. The Sergeant and Corporal perform regular patrol
duties, as well as supervision of other Patrolmen working
their shift. The present work schedule for the Department is
as follows:
7:00
a.m.

It is anticipated that the person presently holding the
Patrol Sergeant position will be retiring in 1985. At that
time, it is proposed that the position be phased out and
replaced with an additional Patrolman. At the same time, one
of the current Patrolmen would be promoted to the position of
Corporal.
`a^s-,,intainud a ctrpnath
Since 1911, the Police Depar Liiient 11
of 12 sworn officers. The City's population and police
activities have increased appreciably since 1977. It is
anticipated that the Police Department will be adding one
additional Patrolman to current staffing levels in both 1985
and 1986. Assuming these changes occur, the total sworn
personnel would be 14 in 1988. The clerical staff will
continue to include one full time and one part-time
secretary.
Should the changes occur, the Department's organization and
manpower allocation would be as shown on the following page:

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN
Section 7.05, Subdivision 3, of the Charter calls for the pre-
paration of a Capital Improvement Plan which, ...shall consist
of projects and facilities that are or will be needed by the City
in carrying out the anticipated program of public services." The
development of a Capital Improvement Plan requires the deter-
mination of needed capital improvements to existing facilities
and equipment, the establishment of appropriate policies setting
forth the City's position regarding capital expenditures and
revenue sources, and an evaluation of the long-term growth needs
of the community. Obviously, all of these areas are covered by
other portions of the Long -Term Financial Plan, but unlike the
Capital Budget which is a summary, the development of the Capital
Improvement Plan takes into consideration all of these factors
when putting together the program.

LONG-TERM REVENUE PROGRAM
The provision, in the City Charter, Section 7.05, Subdivision 4,
for a Long -Term Revenue Program states: "This program shall
consist of a tentative revenue policy which describes long-term
plans for financing public services and capital improvements".
This, of necessity, is a general statement, subject to change,
about the types of financing that are favored for current public
services and for Capital Improvements.
Basic governmental services, as presented in annual operating
budgets, should be financed entirely from current recurring
annual revenues. These revenues include, but are not limited
to, generai pruperty Lanes, 6icish3r""` `.Q."'!ira fees; permit
7 " .
fees and licenses, and intergovernmental revenues. Annual
expenditures for basic governmental services should not exceed
current recurring annual revenues. The goal is to achieve a
balanced budget by financing current expenditures with current
revenues.
The uncertain future of local government aid and other State
shared taxes will cause a search for other sources of revenues to
fund basic governmental services accounted for in the general
fund. These may include user fees and service charges. At the
same time a review should be conducted to determine areas of
potential economization and possible reduction of services.
These could include contracting for services or joint programs
with other governmental units.
The Water and Sewer Utilities current operations should be
financed entirely from the fees of the users of the utilities.
User fees should be established so as to provide for annual
recurring operating expenses, depreciation expenses, debt
retirement, and an allowance for emergencies. These practices
will ensure that the users of these utilities pay their fair
share for services received and will also help maintain the
financial integrity of the Water Fund and the Sewer Fund.
Several methods are available for the financing of capital
improvements. The method which is best will vary with the type
of improvement and other conditions which may exist at the time
the project is undertaken. Traditional public improvement pro-
jects which include, but are not limited to, water mains, sewer
mains, storm sewers, paving of streets, curbs and gutters, should
be financed by special assessments. These special assessments
should be assessed entirely against benefitted properties.
Capital improvements of the Water and Sewer Utilities should be
financed from fees of the users of the utilities. These improve-
ments could include, but are not limited to, water towers, wells, '
and filtration and treatment plants. Construction costs would be _
paid for by the issuance of revenue bonds. The bonds would be
1983 LONG-TERM FINANCIAL PLAN
Page Eighteen
retired through revenues of the utilities. As far as practicable
capital improvements of these utilities should be financed by
current revenues or by funds which have been set aside for future
capital projects.
Other capital improvements or capital facilities could be
considered as a separate category. These could include, but are
not limited to, park acquisition and development, municipal
buildings, heavy equipment or other types of equipment. These
may be financed in several ways and are listed in order of
preference.
1) Grants in aid. These may include categorical grants from
the County, State, or Federal government or other grants,
s-irh ac. Revenue Sharing.
2) Pay as you go. This method uses the current years
revenue.
3) Reserve Funds. Funds are set aside for a specific pro-
ject or for replacement of a facility over a period of
two or three years.
4) General Obligation Bonds. A municipality may issue bonds
and pledge tax revenues to repay them. Minnesota law
places a limit as to the amount of general obligation
bonds which may be issued. This limit is called the
legal debt margin.
CAPITAL BUDGET
The Capital Budget is defined by Section 7.05, Subdivision 5, of
the Home Rule Charter is to provide:
a summary on the basis of a five year period of the
capital or money requirements for (outlined) programs. It
shall list a priority for each anticipated investment in
community facilities and balance this with a consideration of
the availability of necessary revenues."

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
-� FROM: Clerk-Administrat I
DATE: February 22, 1984
SUBJECT: COMPARABLE WORTH
As some of you are aware the issue of comparable worth is the most
recent development of major proportions in the area of personnel
administration. Basically, comparable worth can be defined as the
requirement that irrespective of sex individuals be paid comparable
wages for work which is substantially equal in the aicas vt
work effort, and responsibility.
As I indicated in a recent Administrative Newsletter, it is anti-
cipated that the issue of comparable worth will be discussed in
the 1984 Legislative Session as a result of legislation being
introduced which would, if adopted, require that the State and
all other governmental units pay comparable wages for comparable
jobs. The League of Minnesota Cities and the Minnesota Legislative
Commission (a group of 14 cities who will be jointly lobbying in
1984) have prepared draft policy statements, which have not been
adopted by the organizations, on the issue of comparable worth.
These statements, copies attached, address the issue of comparable
worth by recommending to the Legislature that certain principles
be used as a guide in the preparation and adoption of legislation
on this issue.
Although the City of Mounds view has in my opinion taken great
strides towards addressing the issue of comparable worth in its
wages as a result of 1984 wage adjustments, any new State laws
could have significant impact upon the process followed and ultimate
wages paid to all of our employees. Therefore, I would recommend
that the City Council, at a minimum, provide staff with direction
for our possible lobbying efforts on the issue of comparable worth
and, if i.t is felt to be appropriate, adopt a policy statement on
the issue of comparable worth which can be submitted to our
Legislators and used by staff during the lobbying process.
I would like to point out that I strongly support the payment of
comparable wages for comparable work effort irregardless of sex
and race, however, I am concerned with the methods that might be
dictated by State legislation for our accomplishing such a goal,
namely, are comparable wages based upon market conditions or are
they established in a vacuum irregardless of market conditions,
are comparable wages accomplished over a reasonable period of time
or is a significant burden placed upon the organization by a
requirement that comparable wages be paid immediately, are comparable
worth wages accomplished without causing for a spiraling effect
in labor contracts and are they or are they not an issue subject to
arbitration, and are comparable wages achieved only by increasing
-z-
current wages of underpaid employees or are employees who are
determined to be paid a higher wage than appropriate for their
work effort to receive a reduction in their wages, thus, paying
employees for the value of their work rather than basing wages
upon artificial pressures.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend that Council adopt a
position atement on the comparable worth issue and/or adopt
resolution supporting the position of the League of Minnesota
Cities should the position they ultimately adopt be acceptable
to you.

Municipal Legislative Commission Draft Policy
rCOMPARABLE WORTH
The Municipal Legislative Commission supports efforts to
address the issue of comparable worth at the local level of
government and believes that cities and other local units are
in the best position to address compensation inequities within
the context of abilitv to nay. We further believe that rmmnarnhlP
worth is more than a gender issue and has the potential to affect
compensation programs for all public employees.
Wage rates for various classifications should be based on
job content, as well as an external relationship with the market
place. That content anlysis must take into account internal
equity comparisons, but also must allow for some comparison with
' the external job market. Further, it is our strong belief that
such a comparable worth program cannot be successful as long as
our communities are forced by law to set wage levels through
binding arbitration for certain employee groups.
The Municipal Legislative Commission recommends that legis-
lative action be taken in 1984 to promote wage equity through a
determination of comparable worth and that the following principles
should guide this legislation.
(1) Any system of job evaluation and job content should relate
to the external forces of supply and demand.
(2) Existing labor relations laws which mandate binding arbitra-
tion for certain employee groups must be modified to allow
' for implementation of wage structures based on comparable
worth.
(3) The legislation should allow not only for the upgrading of
certain classes of work in the wage structure, but also
provide for decreases in pay where job evaluations indicate
that is appropriate.
(4) Cities should be protected from any legal action that is
brought for the purposes of obtaining back pay as a result
of the implementation of comparable worth programs.
(5) Legislation should allow a reasonable time period to accom-
plish the implementation of such programs. We would suggest
a minimum of three years.
(6) The state legislation should involve the adoption of a philo-
sophy and definition of specific goals for pay equity pro-
grams and allow cities some degree of latitude in the analysis
and implementation of those programs.
M
-
COMPARABLE: WORTH --TASK FORCL DRAFT POLICY
The League recommends that the Legislature allow a reasonable period of
time for local units of governments to address the issue of comparable worth
at the local level before mandating compliance with a state-wide program.
Cities and other local units of government are in the best position to address
possible internal salary inequities without exceeding local budget
rnnerraints.
Comparable worth is more than a gender issue, being inextricably linked
to the proposition that positions should be classified on the basis of job
content and that wage rates for similarly classified positions should bear a
rational relationship to the changing requirements of the marketplace.
The League of Minnesota Cities supports the philosophy of pay equity on
the basis of both internal job content comparisons and external supply and
demand comparisons.
A wage structure based on job content cannot be realized, however, in an
environment where wage rates can be established either by arbitration awards
or negotiated with labor organizations operating within the allowances of the
labor relations laws.
The League recoimunds that legislative action be taken at this time to
fncilitate and encourage local units of government to develop compensation
programs based on job content. The following principles should guide this
legislation:
Drafted by: Joel Jamnik
Committee: Comparable Worth Task Force
Date Presented: 1/31/84
Date Adopted: 1/31/84
Draft Number: 1
Page l of 2
Priority:
1. Comparable worth programs must balance internal pay equity with
external supply and demand considerations.
2. Existing laws, which limit the power of municipal governing bodies
and managers to implement wage structures based on comparable worth, including
but not limited to collective bargaining and arbitration, must be modified
accordingly.
3. Implementation of internal pay equity programs.must incorporate the
concept that decreases in pay as well as increases may be necessary.
4. Because of the costs associated with the implementation of
comparable worth, the state should make available special assistance and
funding mechanisms for program implementation.
5. Pay equity implementation should not be required to be completed in
less than a three to five—year period.
() The state should shield or indemnify, including providing or paying
for defense costs, any city which is sued for back pay as a result of the
implementation of the pay equity programs.
7. The state should define the goals of comparable worth, but allow
cities to choose the methods of analysis and implementation of pay equity
programs.
8. A fiscal note identifying any local government costs to be incurred
in implementing any legislation must be included.

le"4N MEMO TO: Mayor and City Co nci
FROM: Clerk-Administr
DATE: February 29, 19
SUBJECT: NEW HIGHWAY 10
On Tuesday, February 28th, Engineering/Planning Technician Frank
Kampel and I met with Messrs. Craig Robinson and Mike Christenson
from the MnDOT District 5 and Central Office, respectively,
regarding the plans they have prepared for the temporary connucciun
of the new Trunk Highway 10 spur from County Road J to Trunk Highway
65. Attached to this memorandum is a drawing highlighted by staff
which is included as part of their overall plans giving a general
idea as to how this temporary connection will occur. Staff will
have a full copy of their drawings at the March 5th meeting for
your review.
Basically, the temporary connection or Phase I of the construction
of a new Highway 10,which is proposed to be known as Trunk Highway 610
and would ultimately cross over the Mississippi River and connect
into Interstate 94 near Maple Grove,would provide a four lane roadway
separate from County Road J and running north of County Road J from
the intersection of County Road J and the High,,•ray 10 spur west to
Radisson Road or 89th Avenue Northeast. The only interconnection
between Phase I Highway 10 and County Road J would be where the
Highway 10 spur and County Road J presently connect and where the
access road from the Anoka County -Blaine Airport connects into
County Road J.
Staff also was availed the opportunity to review preliminary
drawings for the Phase II development of new Highway 10. These
preliminary drawings showed that the interconnection of the
existing County Road J to the new Highway 10 would be severed
and there would be no direct interconnection between the new
Highway 10 and Mounds View City streets, rather a new County Road J,
which would serve as an access road,would be bui1L north of the
existing County Road J and would provide access to an interchange
that would be constructed north of the current intersection of the
Airport access road and County Road J.
we have been advised by the gentlemen who met with us that their
department is presently in the process of preparing an Environmental
Impact Statement which they hope to have completed by the Fall of
1984. Once the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is completed
-s-
public hearings will be held on this project with open houses is
to those held in 1979 also being possible. It is the
hope of the Department of Transportation that construction of
Phase I will begin in 1986 with it being open by the Fall of
1986. In response to an inquiry regarding when Phase II might
occur they advised us that there is no schedule for that
construction at this time and they do not anticipate that it
will occur in the foreseeable future.
Staff would request Council comment regarding the plans for a
Phase I construction which we will then communicate to the
Department of Transportation in order that they might respond
to any of our concerns with modifications to their plans prior
to completion of the EIS.

I,--, MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk -Administrator
DATE: March 1, 1984
SUBJECT: ANALYSIS OF PROPANE CONVERSION
In February of 1982 staff presented a report to the City Council
entitled, "Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) as an Alternative Fuel Source
for Municipal Vehicles", copy attached. The report concluded
that an analysis of LPG as an alternative fuel revealed that the
City would benefit from the conversion of some of our vehicles
and recommended the conversion of seven vehicles during 1983.
The City Council chose to limit the conversion to five vehicles
(two squad cars, two pickups, and the Jet Rodder) and this was
accomplished during 1983. The purpose of this report is to
summarize our experience with the use of propane and make recom-
mendations regarding its continued use.
The total cost for propane conversions during 1983 was as follows:
Propane Tank (General Fund) $3,532.40
Conversions:
Equipment (General Fund) 2,466.92
(Sewer Fund) 2,073.68
Labor 1,500.00
TOTAL COST $9,573.00
As the Propane Tank installation costs (included electrical,
fencing, site grading, and gravel) cannot be directly attributed
in whole or in part to any one vehicle, this expense will not be
used in making an analysis of the economics of propane. The
actual cost of conversion, labor and material, was $6,041 ($3,367
General Fund and $2,674 Sewer Fund). In order to establish and
average conversion cost per vehicle the following computations
and assumptions were made:
Average Conversion Costs:
General Fund - $3,367 3 = $1,122/vehicle
Sewer Fund - $1,122 for pickup
$1,552 for Jet Rodder
Assumptions:
1. It was assumed, based on experience, that the cost of
converting a pickup versus a car is similar thus,
except for the Jet Rodder all other vehicles could use
average cost.
-2-
Assumptions: (cont.)
2. The Jet ftodder required extra materials and labor
for conversion, thus all Sewer Fund costs less the
pickup woro attributed to the Jet Rodder.
The City Mechanic provided the following information and observa-
tions regarding operating costs and equipment operation of vehicles
converted to propane:

NOTE: There are no 1982 figures on which to make a
comparison, however, the Mechanic has indicated
the car has 46,000 miles on the speedometer and
has never had a tune-up. He feels this is totally
attributable to propane and resulted in a $175
reduction in what• would have been the maintenance
cost for this vehicle using gasoline.
The Mechanic has reported that those vehicles converted to
propane have increased power, run and idle smoother, require
fewer oil changes and tune-ups, and have all around better
performance. Also, the engines run cooler especially in hot
weather which helps to reduce wear particularly on our squad
cars. The main complaint received from the operators of the
vehicles is the filling of the tank as it required more work
than with gasoline and some of the initial equipment malfunctioned.
Repairs have been made and the in -place equipment is operating
more smoothly and recent advances in propane equipment technology
will allow for the more automatic filling of tanks as new equip-
ment is purchased to replace old equipment or for additional
conversions.
Using the information provided earlier in this report, we can
draw the following payback assumptions for the equipment converted
to propane, excluding the 1983 Ford squad on which we have
incomplete data.

1 feel that is can be safely said that the propane program for
the City of Mounds View has been a successful one in view of
the figures contained in this report and the fact that fuel
and lubricant costs in 1983 were $6,000 less than 1982 although
some of that savings cannot be attributed to propane conversion,
but to other factors.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend that the conversion of
vehicles to propane continue excluding low mileage or high mpg
rated vehicles and those having a low use life where payback is
questionable.

ME1-10 TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk-AdminisLralor
DATE: February 8, 1982
SUBJECT: LIQUID PROPANE GAS (LPG) AS AN ALTERNAVVE FUEL
SOURCE FOR MUNICIPAL VL•'IIICI,IiS
After the 1981 League of Minnesota Cities Conference, Mayor McCarty
requested that staff investigate the feasibility of Liquid Propane
Gas (LPG) as a supplementary or alternative fuel source for the
City's vehicles. The following is a sunm:ary of the informnrinn
glcar, d 4'1:01i1 do investigation of the subject and staff's recommenda-
tions for the conversion of the City's fleet to LPG.
LPG is a derivative of the refining of natural gas and crude oil
which exists as a gas in its natural state. For ease of transporta-
tion, handling, and distribution the gas .is liquified under pressure.
The liquid form vaporizes when it is released from its container and
is used by the consumer in its gaseous state.
Until recently the more common uses for. LPG or propane, as it is
commonly known, have been for heating, gas appliances, grain drying,
and agricultural or industrial equipment. With rising costs for
fuel and maintenance.of gasoline powered vehicles propane has also
become a popular fuel source for fleet vehicles in both the private
and public sectors.
There are two types of propane systems which can be used in
vehicles. The first is a "straight propane" system which burns
propane only. The second system is known as a "dual" system. In
a dual system the vehicle has both propane and gasoline tanks and
can burn either propane or gasoline depending upon the desires of
the operator. The advantages and disadvantages of each system will
be discussed in a later section of this report.
Some of the advantages and disadvantages of propane as an alterna-
tive source are:
A. Advantages
1. Low cost. Because propane is a by-product of crude oil and
natura gas processing resulting in a large supply of the
product and the demand for propane is low, propane presently
sells for about 506 to 6" less per gallon than gasoline.
2. H h Octane Rating. Propane has an octane rating exceeding
110, as compare to about 93 for premium gasoline, which
Provides for smoother vehicle performance.
- ` 3. Longer Spark Plug He. Because propane clogs not require
the additives normally contained in gasoline, their useful
life can be doubled.
_2-
A. ALIViln cs (conL. )
A. rFewer Oil Changes and Imr.oved L'ngi.nc vicar. Because propane 1
borne— d z— n a gaseous state as compared to the liquid form
of gasoline, engine oil does not become contaminated with
sludge and varnish deposits, thus, doubling or tripling
the useful life of an oil change. Also, because of the
elimination of combustion deposits and improved lubricating
ability for engine oil the normal wear to an engine is
reduced.
5. Reduced Exhaust Emissions. Propane burning vehicles emit
15 gnific antl.y reduced amounts of pollutants which, if the
vehicle is not on a dual system, allows for the removal of
the pollution control devices on the engine.
6. Elimination of Pilferage. Because propane is used in a
sealed --full pilferage, spillage, and evaporation
arevirtually eliminated.
7. Propane is Safer than Gasoline. Propane can be considered
safer than gasoline for four reasons:
a. Propane tanks are over 20 times stronger than gasoline
tanks in resistance to a collision.
b. Should the fuel line rupture, propane systems have (�
built-in safety devices and shut-off valves to prevent
leakage.
c. In tests conducted by the South San Francisco Police
Department using both rifles and handguns it was
determined that, "...propane tanks could effectively
resist the impact of an handgun bullet..." and when
pierced, "...would produce a high-pressure leak and,
if ignited, would produce a torch -type flame much
easier to control...". They also observed that,
"...if. the vehicle were set afire by a Molotov
cocktail, the relief valve would function, preventing
an cxplosiun."
d. Propane is less flammable than gasoline.
B. Disadvantages
1. I,oss of Power. Propane has fewer BTUs than gasoline which
resu is in an overall loss of power (on the highway) of
about 10%.
-3-
B. Disadvantages (coat.)
2. Limited Range. Because of the lack of propane service
stations in parts of the state and country, straight
propane vehicles call have a limited range.
3. Acceleration Loss. Dual fuel powered vehicles have a
slight reduction in acceleration and top -end vehicle
speed as compared to gasoline because the engine cannot
be properly tuned to run on both propane and gasoline.
A. Finicky Performance. Propane powered engines tend to
be more finicky than gasoline, thus, requiring greater
attention to maintenance.
5. Additional Weight. On a straight propane system an addi-
tional 150 lbs. is added to the vehicle weight which can
be an important factor on some vehicles.
Once all of the advantages and disadvantages are weighed, the
financial aspects of propane conversion needs to be considered.
The cost of conversion varies depending upon vehicle type and
engine size and if the conversion is contracted out or done
in-house. Basically, it can be said that a conversion costs between
$1,000 and $1,500. In determining the financial feasibility of
conversion one needs to compare the cost of gasoline consumption
versus propane consumption and the paybac)c period for a conversion.
The average payback period for a private auto being driven 10,000
miles per year is 11 years (Appendix A), whereas, a fleet of five
vehicles, each being driven 30,000 miles per year, has a payback of
two years (Appendix B). In each case consideration was not given
to reduced maintenance costs. Appendix C .is a chart provided by
the National LP Gas Association showing the possible savings in
using propane.
The final factor to be considered when deciding to convert to propane
is whether to use a straight propane or dual fuel system. The
advantages and disadvantages for each, in addition to the advantages
and disadvantages of propane as already listed, are:
A. Straight Propane System
1. Advantages -
a. No Fuel Pump. When using a straight propane system
the fuel pump can be eliminated.
b. Reduced Carburetor Maintenance. A straight propane
carburetor is a simpler mechanism requiring minimal
maintenance.
-4-
A. Straight• Propane System (cone.)
2. Disadvantages - None other than those already cited.
B. Dual Fuel System
1. Advantages -
a. Increased Range. With a dual system a vehicle is able
to travel further before needing to be refueled simply
because of its fuel capacity.
2. Disadvantages -
a. inci:eaaeu Wuiyht. A dual fuel system atlas greater
weight to the vehicle because of the addition of a
propane tank.
b. Reduced Performance. Because an engine cannot be
properly tuned to run on both gasoline and propane,
the general performance of the vehicle is reduced.
c. Increased Maintenance. A dual fuel system requires
increased maintenance because of the two systems and
it has been observed that a dual fuel system requires
more frequent gasket replacement.
After having reviewed all of the information used in preparing
this report staff would recommend the following:
1. That all City vehicles except for those listed below be
converted to a straight propane fuel system.
1980 Chevette
1966 Chevrolet Dump Truck
1964 International Drill Truck
1972 Chevrolet Water bept. Pickup
1982 Chevrolet Malibu (Unmarked Police Car)
1966 Puppet Wagon
2 - 1980 Chevrolet Luv Pickups
1 - City staff car (to be determined at a later date)
These vehicles are not being recommended for one or more of
the following reasons:
a. The vehicle is too small to accommodate a conversion.
b. The vehicle is very low mileage or has a high MPG rating,
making a conversion not financially profitable.
c. Provide for one vehicle each in Public Works, Police, and
City Hall which would have unrestricted travel range.
-5-
A straight propane system is being recommended because it
appears to be the best• method of conversion once all of thc
factors are taken into cons i.doratl.on.
2. That the City Council authorize the conversion of the following 7
out of a possible 10 vehicles during 1982 with all other
vehicles to be converLed in 1983 or as finances permi.t•.
3 - Police Squad Cars
1980 Chevrolet Sewer Dept. Pickup
1977 Dodge Water Dept. Pickup
1980 Chevrolet Par); Dept. Pickup
1977 Ford 4 x 4 Street Dept. Pickup
Attached as Appendix D is a payback sheet for these
conversions.
3. That the City obtain bids for conversions that• would include
the following:
a. Education of employees on the operation of a propane
system.
b. Training of the City's mechanic including assisting
with the installation of two conversion kits.
c. Prices for providing all conversion kits.
d. Follow-up advice on the operation and maintenance of the
fleet.
e. Provision of a 1,000 gallon pumping station at no
additional charge to the City excluding electrical. hook-up.
f. Low priced propane.
Should the Council agree with the recommendation, staff will prepare
specifications for your approval. Should you have any questions
or wish to review the reference material, please let• me know.

As can be seen from the above listing of surveyed organizations,
there is a broad representation among the respondents of types of
vehicles and fuel systems. It should be pointed out that very few
of the respondents have had experience with propane beyond a few
years, thus, some questions regarding frequency of maintenance could
not be answered as fully as might be desired.

CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
PROPANE SURVEY SUMMARY
PAGE THREE
In answering the survey questions relating to the seven performance
factors, the respondents provided the following information:
a. Mileage - In general, the respondents experienced a
10i loss in mileage with both straight and dual fuel
systems.
b. Accelerations - Responses indicated that acceleration
improved with a straight system and is the some or
sluggish with a dual system. NOTE: Perhaps the
sluggishness is due to the ract that a dual rues
system is not completely adjusted to run well with
either fuel.
c. Odor - Odor was noticed only when the tank was being
filled and sometimes with the dual fuel system.
d. Engine Wear - Those respondents having significant
experience with propane indicated that engine wear
improved with the use of propane.
e. Frequency of Oil Change - The straight propane users
indicated they were able to extend oil use two to
three times that for gasoline, however, dual system
users found they need to change oil as often as when
they used gasoline.
f. Frequency of Tunc-Ups - As was the case with oil
changes, straight propane users extended the life of
a tune-up by two to three times the average for gaso-
line and dual fuel users continued to tune-up their
vehicles as often as they did when using gasoline.
g. Extreme Weather Conditions - The majority of those who
have had at least one winter's experience with propane
indicated that they have experienced starting difficulties
in cold weather. It was the observation of the City of
Duluth, however, that they had no greater starting problems
with propane vehicles than with gasoline vehicles.
NOTE: A determining factor might be whether these vehicles
are stored indoors or outside during the winter months and
the use of engine heaters.
All of• the respondents indicated they were having no difficulty in
obtaining a supply of propane with the average cost being 62C/gallon,
not including tax.

Seven of the 10 respondents indicated they used a private firm
to install the conversion kits, two used a private installer, as
well as their own mechanics, and one respondent indicated they
were doing all of the work themselves.
Perhaps the most significant- piece of• information gleaned from
these surveys was the fact that of the eight respondents having
had experience with or presently using both dual fuel and straight
systems, five recommended the use of straight propane systems
stating the following reasons:
1. A vehicle cannot be fine tuned to run on gasoline and
iropa,ia buLh, and, consequently, the vehicle does not
operate at peak efficiency on either.
2. Cual fuel systems require a higher degree of maintenance,
particularly in the replacement of gaskets.
3. Improved exhaust emissions from a straight propane system
has allowed for the removal of pollution control devices
relieving engine heat and improving performance.

west County Road limits to Rice Creek. As this group has yet to
meet with representatives of Anoka and Ramsey Counties, I would
hope that this information would be helpful during our discussions.
At this time staff has no comments with respect to this program
and would submit that should the County accomplish the programmed
projects during the next five years we will have accomplished a
great deal.

INTRODUCTION
Ramsey County Department of Public
Works has responsibility for the provision
of a iransporiadon netw(rk of couniy
roads in the portion of the County
outside the City of St. Paul. Suburban
Ramsey County consists of 74,147 acres
of land with a 1980 population of
189,433.
There are two types of roads under the
jurisdiction of the County: county state
aid highways, numbered one through 79,
whose construction and maintenance is
funded primarily from the Minnesota
Highway User Tax Distribution Fund; and
county roads, numbered 80 through 163,
which are funded from property taxes.
All of these roads and the bridges on
them require monitoring and
maintenance by the Public Works
Department of Ramsey County. The
Improvements scheduled to be performed
to these roads and bridges are contained
in this Capital Improvement Program for
1994 to 1989.
The Public Works Department also has
responsibility for 23 lakes within the
County. Major improvement projects
proposed for these lakes are also
Included in this Capital improvement
Program.
The Capital Improvement Program is
developed by assessing the condition of
the existing system and its adequacy to
meet needs. Deficiencies are analyzed
and alternative actions to correct them
are considered. Priorities are estab-
lished with community involvement. The
need for a project is considered along
with technical staff capabilities and
funding ava0ablity, The listing of the
projects to be implemented by the Public
Works Department is contained in the
Capital Improvement Program.
There are six categories included in the
Capital Improvement Program: , capital
improvement projects eurreWtly under
contract, capital improvement projects
for 1984, capital improvement projects
for 1985-1986, capital improvement
projects for 1987-1989, capital
improvement projects which are not
programmed, and a deficient bridge
program.
The Capital Improvement Program is
revised annually to reflect changes due
to budget limitations, additional funding
sources, federal requirements and other
factors.

(This letter was sent to: Mayor and City Administrator of Lino
Lakes, Mayor and City Manager of Blaine, Mayor and City Manager of
Shoreview, Mayor and Clerk Treasurer of Spring Lake Park, and
Mayor and City Administrator of Circle Pines.)
Dear
The City of Mounds View recently received a copy of Ramsey
County's 1984-1989 Capital Improvement Program which calls
for the reconstruction of County Road J, from the westerly
County limits at the northwest corner of Mounds View east
to Rice Creek.
As I have yet to receive response from either Anoka County
Commissioner Paul McCarron or Ramsey County Commissioner
Robert Orth requesting a meeting on the improvement of
County Road J, I felt this information would be helpful to
you. Also, as it would appear that these individuals are
not greatly interested in attempting to respond to our
requests for a meeting, I would ask assistance in encouraging
them to do so by your individually contacting them and
advising them of our strongest desire that this meeting be
scheduled as promptly as possible so that we might incorporate
any conclusions reached during these discussions in the Capital
Improvement Programs for the two Counties.
Any help you might be able to provide in precipitating the
requested meeting would be greatly appreciated.

IN LOBBYING ORGANIZATIONS
The City of Mounds View recently received inquiries from the
Minnesota Association of Small Cities, copy of correspondence
attached, and a representative of the Municipal Legislative
Commission regarding the possibility of the City of Mounds View
joining these organizations. Both of these groups have been
organized within the last few years with their main goal being
to lobby for legislation and/or funding levels for various aid
programs to the benefit of their membership.
The Minnesota Association of Small Cities initially organized
on a very small level in 1979 and only the last two years has
expanded significantly in response to the reduction in State Aids.
This organization, during the last few legislative sessions, has
proposed specific legislation which would benefit a large number
of cities within the State of Minnesota by changing the formula
to increase aids to smaller communities. As of this time this
organization has not been successful in their efforts.
The Municipal Legislative Commission which has been organizing
over the past year and recently elected its first set of officers
is a group of 14 suburban communities that experienced significant
reductions in State Aids and became concerned about other State-wide
and Metropolitan -wide issues which they felt needed to be addressed
by the State Legislature and was not being accomplished by the
organizations they presently have membership in. It is the intention
of this organization to specifically lobby for those issues which
the Commission as a whole approves policies statements on and they
have hired a professional lobbying firm to assist them in those
efforts.
I recently received a communication from a representative of the
Municipal Legislative Commission asking if the City of Mounds View
would be interested in joining the organization as they wish to
selectively expand their membership. At the present time they are
seeking membership from the City of Mounds View and two other
northern suburbs.
With both of these cases there are several issues the City Council
should consider before making a decision as to whether or not we
wish to belong to either or both of these organizations, those
being:
1. The City of Mounds View presently has membership in the League
of Minnesota Cities, Association of Metropolitan Municipalities,
Ramsey County League of Local Governments, and the Suburban Rate
-2-
Authority. Although all four of these organizations do in
one way or another serve the same purpose for which these
two groups were organized, they are either unable to
adequately represent the interests of specific groups due
to their diverse membership or they are dealing with so
many issues that they are unable to address all of them
in an equally adequate manner.
2. The City of Mounds View presently expends approximately
$7,700 for membership in the four organizations we presently
belong to. Although staff has no specific information
regarding the membership dues for the Minnesota Association
am�ii r;+;om, nrPvious information with respect to this
organization indicated that membership dues were extremely
reasonable to the point of being less than a few hundred
dollars. The Minnesota Legislative Commission, however, would
result in a total cost to the City of Mounds View of approxi-
mately $3,200. In both cases neither of these expenditures
are budgeted items for 1984.
3. The question arises as to how many organizations does the
City of Mounds View belong to without having divided allegiances
and effectively expending taxpayer money on lobbying efforts to
guarantee our "fair share" of the 5tate's pot.
If Council were to request a staff recommendation with respect to
this item I would find myself hard pressed to make one as i personally
feel all of the organizations we presently belong to are worthwhile
organizations, however, I also feel that the Municipal Legislative
Commission could also accomplish things which could be to our great
benefit. Before any decision is made by the City Council on this
matter I would counsel you to consider not just the cost of member-
ship in these organizations but also the purposes which they serve
and the benefits the City of Mounds View might obtain from being a
member of one or all of these organizations. Your direction on this
matter would be appreciated.

Dear Mayor;
Of the 855 cities in Minnesota, over 700 are receiving what we, The
Minnesota Association of Small Cities, feel is less than a fair share
of State Aids. I am writing to you as Mayor of one of the cities
which loses under the current unfair formula to ask your help in
changing this formula, which has been in effect since 1979.
The M.A.O.S.C, has been conducting a vigorous membership drive in
recent months. We have met with as many cities as possible and
responses have exceeded expectations.
I want to thank those ui you who have joined our ranks ano are
supporting our lobbying efforts, which will help finance the attempts
to enact a more fair and equitable Aid Formula. If the Small Cities
and their Associates do not get the job done, who will? If you are
not a member of M.A.O.S.C. please consider the benefits of an equitable
formula for the State of Minnesota as a whole and contribute what you
feel would be your fair share in helping the M.A.O.S.C. accomplish this.
We have been working together with The Minnesota Association of Town-
ships and Counties to gain their support for a new Local Aids Formula
and to help them get back what they will lose in State Aids in 1984
and 1985• Rural Minnesota must work together to generate the strength
to maintain their fair share from the Legislature.
We do not expect support from the three major cities, Minneapolis,
St. Paul and Duluth. We must realize that when our M.A.O.S C.
proposal is considered by the Legislature we will face formidable
opposition. That is why we need your help. We not only need the
funds but also, your active support on a political level.
If the Association of Small Cities is to be successful in its' efforts
to change the formula, and thus obtain equalized distribution of tax
money for cities, we need your help in winning the support of your
local House and Senate member.
We urge you and each member of your City Council and staff to contact
your local Legislators and demand that they support the Aid Formula
proposed by the M.A.O.S.C.
We also need the attendance of all of you at the Annual L.M.C. Confer-
ence at the Radisson St. Paul Hotel on the 13th and loth of March, 1984
to join your colleagues to speak up and voice your strong objection to
the dominance of Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth on the issue of State
Aids. If enough member cities insist, maybe we can obtain the support
of the L.M.C. in this matter.
If you want more information, please call or write me at the above
address, or call or write your Regional V.P. as listed in the Small Talk.
Lets let the Legislature know their is an active and concerned Rural M.
Yours truly,
t�yrton Wegener, Exec. Dir,

MEMORANDUM
TO: MEMBERS OF THE MUNICIPAL LEGISLATIVE COMMISSION
FROM: INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BOND COMMITTEE
DATE: FEBRUARY 9, 1984
SUBJECT: POSITION ON INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS
This past week, Barry Evans, Tom Hedges, and Jim Miller
discussed on several occasions the position the Municipal
Legislative Commission should adopt with respect to possible
changes in the Industrial Revenue Bond financing laws.
The Committee has learned that the Minnesota NAHRO (National
Association of Housing and Redevelopment Officials) has
been meeting regularly over the last several months in an
attempt to adopt a position. Peggy Flicker from the League
of Minnesota Cities staff has been meeting with that Committee,
and it appears that NAHRO will be drafting a bill for intro-
duction into the 1984 session of the Legislature. Also, it
was learned that the NAHRO position will be reviewed by the
League of Minnesota Cities Board at its meeting next Wednesday.
NAHRO obtained data on Industrial Revenue Bond usage, and
concluded that a distribution of 85 percent on the $150
per capita allocation should go to localities, with the
remaining 15 percent controlled by the State. It is under-
stood that this is based on an approximate historical
distribution of Industrial Revenue Bond issues between the
State and localities in Minnesota.
With respect to how local governments would be affected,
NAHRO is contemplating dividing cities into one of two cate-
gories. The first would be identified as historical users,
and the latter would be eligible to participate in a pool.
They have tentatively indicated that approximately 80 percent
of the allocation to cities (85 percent of the total alloca-
tion for the State of Minnesota) should be allocated for
historical users, while the remaining 20 percent would go
into the pool.
Historical users would be defined as those cities which,
over the three highest of the last four consecutive years,
have issued an average $1 million or more. These communi-
ties would be entitled to receive a proportionate share
of the money allocated for historical users, based on their

Subcommittee Members:
Ken Rosland, Edina
John Pidgeon, Bloomington
Doug Reeder, Maple Crove
This subcommittee met in Edina Tuesday, February 7, with
Doug Reeder, Doug Bryant, Jim Truax, and Kathy Kardell. The
meeting resulted in this report after refining, a draft report.
LEGISLATIVE ISS';:
There are at least three different and distinct legislative
changes being discussed to provide funding for the operation
and maintenance of regional parks. The three major proposals
have been developed by the Metropolitan Parks and Open Space
Commission, the Hennepin County Park Reserve District, and the
City of Minneapolis (Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board).
All three propositions are attempting to provide a funding •
resource in order to alleviate current or projected shortfalls
in the operating budgets of the ten implementing agencies.
up to this point, funding for the regional park system has
been provided by the State Legislature to the ten implementing
agencies (6 counties, Bloomington, Hennepin County Park Reserve
District, Minneapolis, and St. Paul). This money has been dis-
tributed to the implementing agencies to acquire and develop
designated regional parks, and in turn the implementing agencies
have agreed to provide for the operation of these parks. At
this time many of these implementing agencies are saying that
they do not have the financial resources to pay for the con-
tinued operation of the regional parks.
POSITION:
It appears that there will not be a seriuus effort to adopt
legislation during the 1984 session. however, efforts will be
made to lay groundwork for major legislation in 1985. The
Metropolitian Council's Parks and Open Space Commission is
seeking the formation of a joint House and Senate subcommittee
to review current funding procedures for the regional parks.
The MLC will continue to monitor the activities of the Metro-
politan Council, State Legislature, and Hennepin County Park
Reserve District in this area.
STRUCTURAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGES
AT THE METROPOLITAN (WASTE CONTROL COMMISSION
Issue
1. Restructure Metropolitan Waste Control Commission to allow membership
of constituent couununities.
2. Support the alignment of PiWCC wage settlements with those of the State
of Minnesota and metropolitan agencies. Suggest bargaining units be
placed under the jurisdiction of the State of Minnesota.
Position
Endorse recommendations of the Boland Commission (with the exception of a
permanent chairman). Adopt bargaining strategies immediately because major
contracts at the MWCC expire in 1984.
POSITION STATEi•lENT-41LINICIPAL LEGISLATIVE COMMiSSION
Structural and Organizational Changes .
at the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission
fhe Municipal Legislative Commission strongly supports legislative
action to restructure the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission and its
operations. The iunicipal Legislative Commission has followed and
participated closely in the Boland Commission Study of the Metropolitan
Agency and strongly supports the adoption of legislation which accomplishes
♦„�_ n,.,inr rhinOns.
1. The Municipal Legislative Commission Feels it is essential that
constituent communities be given membership on the Metropolitan Waste
Control Commission. We suggest that a certain number of seats, at
least 50 percent, be reserved for individuals representing the
constituent communities. It is our firm belief that accountability
can only be enhanced when the communities which ultimately pay the
bill for services of the MWCC have representatives on the Commission.
2. The Municipal Legislative Commission strongly encourages efforts
in future contract years to align the MJICC wage settlements with those
of the State of Minnesota and other metropolitan agencies, and suggests
that 1.4WCC bargaining units be placed under the jurisdiction of the
State of Minnesota. Major contracts at the M41CC expire in 1984 and
we believe it is essential that bargaining strategies be adopted
immediately for this change. We further believe that the legislation
must address the spiraling costs of wages and fringe benefits which
currently exist at the MWCC and have the potential of drastically
increasing the operating costs of this agency beyond what we, the
constituent communities, deem appropriate.

Position Statement
Page 2
With one exception, the Municipal Legislative Comnission endorses the
recommendations made by the Boland Commission and encourages legislation that
will adopt t�jse reconunendations. The one recommendation on which we disagree
is the creation of a permanent chairman for the commission. It is our belief
that the professional administration of the agency will be best served by a
citizen chairmanship, which would be rotated among the appointed commission
In conclusion, the Municipal Legislative Commission believes that it
is essential to effect changes in the MWCC organization and structure to
avoid disproportionate cost increases and to maintain an agency which can
effectively serve its constituent municipalities. It is our firm belief that
the changes suggested will make this agency more accountable to its public
and, of necessity, more efficient in its operations.

METROPOLITAN GOVERN.AENT ACCOUNTABILITY
LEGISLATIVE ISSUE:
1. Creation of a Legislative Commission on Metropolitan Affairs
Representatives Carolyn Rodriguez, Connie Levi and John Brandl have
proposed legislation which would create a Legislative Commission on
Metropolitan Affairs. The duties of the commission would be to
review plans and policies, annual work programs and budgets and other
reports and work products of the Metropolitan Agencies, Boards and
Commissions; to oversee and report on the activities of the
Metropolitan Agencies, Boards and Commissions; to study and make
recommendations it deems appropriate to assist the legislature in
formulating policy and legislation affecting metropolitan affairs;
and to review and evaluate proposed legislation affecting
metropolitan affairs. The committee would be made up of five (5)
members frog each house of the legislature. The Chair of the Senate
Local and Urban Government Committee and the Chair of the House Local
and Urban Affairs Committee would also be appointed as members of the
commission.
POSITION:
The Municipal Legislative Commission endorses legislation creating a
Legislative Commission on Metropolitan Affairs. The MLC deems a
separate commission as a positive step in providing accountability to the
legislature for Metropolitan Commission and Agency activities. The 14LC
urges that the menbership be made up of members of the House and Senate
from the seven (7) county metropolitan area.
LEGISLATIVE ISSUE:
2. Elected versus appointed Metropolitan Council.
There has been recent discussion regarding the merits of an elected
hletropolitan Council versus the present process of appointment.

and 1978 for the development of the parcels, it became apparent
and most important to look at the other properties adjacent to
Pinecrest Properties, all of which fall within Planning District
2 of the Comprehensive Plan. An importance was placed on an
overall traffic system as well as improvements which would
ultimately create the best system at full development of the
district. Attached is a copy of the site plan which ended up
being the foundation of the development plan. It was deemed that
some type of median cut was necessary for good traffic flow. A
final plat was drafted for Pinecrest Properties. The City
authorized the drafting of plans and specifications for the
improvements, placed the project out for bid and awarded the
bid. Prior to start of the project and approval of the final
plat, the City, for the first time, decided to require the
developer to post a security to assure payment of assessments.
An agreement was not reached and thus the project and development
did not occur. City costs for the planning, engineering, staff
and attorney were then established and it was agreed to by the
owners to allow that amount to be assessed against the property.
Proposal ended on a friendly note but unfortunately with no
development.
Today, 1984
Since application has been made and fees paid for deveploment
request, and since a Highway 10 access is vital to good and safe
develoment of not only the Pinecrest Properties, but the
remainder of District 2 as well, the Planning Commission has
seen fit to consider the attached Resolution No. 103-84 at their
March 7, 1984 meeting. Also attached for your review are copies
of letters from Short -Elliott -Hendrickson, Inc. to Don Pauley,
Clerk- Administrator, and Richard Elasky of Mn/Dot, District 9.
These letters are intended to lay the ground work for the City to
request and receive approval of access to Highway 10 between
Clerk -Administrator and City Council
March 11 1984
Page Two 10
County Road H and County Road II-2. With your approval, staff
will draft the necessary resolution and cover letter in which to
formally request access to Highway in for Planning District 2.
Staff trusts that we have acted with your approval to date and
request any specific direction other than the norm for the
drafting of the resolution and cover letter for the access
request. The development• proposal in its entire state will come
to you at a later date after an approved access is granted by
Mn/DOT.
RECOMMENDATION: Direct staff to draft Resolution and rover
letter --for requesting full median access for Trunk Highway
10 between County Road H and County Road H-2 and give any other
specific direction if necesary.

CHIPPESYA FALLS, N'ISCO\SIN
We appreciated the opportunity to meet with you on January 19,
1984 to discuss Pinecrest Properties' Development in Mounds View
and its impact on Trunk Highway 10. Access to Pinecrest will
greatly determine the overall impact of development on the road
system.
Three alternatives were discussed at the January 19th meeting;
(1) A full median cross -over at some point between County Road H
and County Road H-2, (2) A partial median cross -over permitting
left turns from Trunk Highway 10 in either direction, and (3) An
alternative without any median openings between County Road H
and County Road H-2.
We have determined the potential traffic generation of the area
immediate to Trunk Highway 10 between County Road H and County
Road H-2. The assumed land development was taken from the
current Mounds View Comprehensive Plan. Pinecrest Properties is
planning a similar concept and currently has a formal request
before the City.
Our findings are illustrated in the attached schematics for each
of the three alternatives. The figures show the traffic being
generated by the surrounding development only. Through traffic
has not been added to these trips. Alternative 1 (full median
cross -over) projects a substantial volume of southbound left
turns to the proposed Wooddale Drive access. Approximately 3900
conflicts per day would be expected at the Wooddale Drive full
cross -over.

Mr. Richard Elasky

Page 12 I
An increase of approximately 800 vehicles per day is expected on
County Road H-2 immediately west of Trunk Highway 10. A
majority of these vehicles turn to go either north or south on
Highway 10. A very minimal amount of traffic is anticipated to
use the local residential streets north of County Road H-2. At
the intersection of Trunk Highway 10 and County Road H, 1430
southbound left turns are projected from Highway 10 and 2150
westbound left turns from County Road H are anticipated.
Alternate 2 (partial cross -over) is illustrated by the second
schematic. The conflicts for this case reduce to 2335 at the
proposed Wooddale Drive cross -over (-408 when compared to
Alternative 1, full cross -over). Increased traffic on County
Road H-2 more than doubles over Alternative 1 to 1900 vehicles
per day. The traffic on H-2 is unbalanced due to trips desiring
to proceed southbound on Trunk Highway 10. Little traffic is
anticipated to utilize local streets north of County Road H-2.
A 41% increase in southbound left turns from Highway 10 to
County Road H occurs due to eastbound trip desires from Wooddale 1
Drive (now prohibited from crossing at Wooddale Drive) and '-
circulating traffic from the commercial development on the south
side of Highway 10 desiring to proceed northbound. westbound
left turns from County Road H to Highway 10 increase 32% due to
the prohibition against this movement at Wooddale Drive.
Alternate 3 (no median opening) is illustrated by the third
schematic. Conflicts within the Wooddale Drive connection are
now reduced to zero since all movements are "right -in right -out"
only. Traffic on County Road H-2 increases to 2500 vehicles per
day, the highest of the three alternatives. This is due to the
addition of some vehicles which had been using the southbound
left turn at Wooddale Drive (now prohibited). The left turning
movements at County Road H increase.
The Mounds View City Council and Planning Commission are
presently reviewing our information and the developer's general
proposal. I anticipate that they will formally approach your
office requesting the consideration of a median opening in the
next few weeks.

you for your consideration.

Councilmember Linke reported the Council had already obtained
the opinion of Attorney Meyers that no commission
member has a vested right of reappointment, and that
he personally cannot support the reappointment of
Mr. Paradise as he has shown an inability to perform
in an acceptable manner,
Mayor McCarty stated it has been the Council's
practice to reappoint anyone who has done a good,
acceptable job, and he does not wish to give the
impression to commission members that if they
differ with the Council, they may not be reappoint-
ed. He added there should be specific charges
to give to Mr. Paradise.
Councilmember Hankner stated she could not support
Mr. Paradise, as other candidates had applied who
were more qualified and willing to serve.

3 ayes 2 nays
Councilmember Doty and Mayor McCarty voted against
the motion.
There was considerable discussion before the vote
. the Tnotinn.
Councilmember Hankner stated she had made the
motion for Ms. Blackstone as she has extensive educa-
tional and working experience in personnel management,
has a high level of interest in civic activities,
has a very independent personality and could pro-
vide some form of affirmative action input into
the Civil Service Commission.
Mayor McCarty stated that while State law supercedes
the City ordinance in reference to commission
appointments, it previously was the Mayor's duty,
and that when he had discussed it with the Council
earlier, they had indicated they would leave it
that way. He stated he would like a motion made,

relieving him of the duty of making police Civil
Service Commission appointment recommendations.
Councilmember Blanchard questioned that, since
the original motion had failed, whether Mayor
McCarty was ready to make another motion. Mayor
McCarty replied that he was not, at this time.
Motion/Second: Ilankner/Linke to call for the
question.
3 ayes 2 nays
Mayor McCarty and Councilmember Doty voted against
the motion, which then failed, lacking a 2/3 vote.
Mayor McCarty stated the Council had stated they
would prefer to have him making the commission
appointment recommendations.
Councilmember Hankner pointed out no formal motion
was made to that effect, and she does not see any
need to make a specific motion relieving the Mayor
of any duty, as the State law explains itself.
Councilmember Doty stated he had voted against
the motion, not because of the person but because
of the policy change.
Mayor McCarty stated it has always been the policy
of the Council to reappoint commission members who
have not been shown to have committed misfeasance
in office, and that as part of the process this
year, those incumbent commissioners who wished to
continue service to the City were automatically
reappointed, and that it was understood that if
an incumbent was not to be reappointed, that
person would receive specific reasons in writing
from the Council, which could be completely aired
at a p::blic hcaring, lie adUEd that ill this parti-
cular case, he feels the commissioner was not
given the opportunity and courtesies he should
have received, nor was there a proven case of
malfeasence, and removal was arbitrary.
Councilmember Blanchard had no report.
Councilmember Doty reported the ditch repair work
on County Road H2 and Long Lake Road appears to
be going along well,
Councilmember Doty reported he would not be able

consideration.
On March 2nd staff corresponded with the property owners,
Mr. & Mrs. Roy Gale and Ms. Debra Yost, who have indicated a
desire to subdivide the east half of their property and requested
retention of the Fairchild Avenue right-of-way by the City for
purposes of their development and advised them that this matter
would be on your March 12th Agenda and that as of the date of
the letter the City had received no proposal for development of
the property. At 2:00 p.m. on the afternoon of March 7, 1984
Mr. Ken Sjodin, representing the property owners, submitted a
preliminary plat to the City for the Gale and Yost Addition. As
it was impossible for staff to review the preliminary plat prior
to the Planning Commission meeting on the evening of March 2nd,
the Planning Commission instructed staff to conduct a review and
present a report to them at their March 21st Work Session. It is
anticipated that Council will be receiving recommendations from
the Planning Commission regarding this preliminary plat soon after
the March 21st Work Session of the Planning Commission.

SUBJECT: ANOKA COUNTY-BLAINE AIRPORT IMPROVEMENTS
Mayor McCarty has requested that staff place the referenced
subject matter on your March 12, 1984 Agenda due to communications
he has recently received from residents of the community regarding
their concern that improvements are being constructed at the Anoka
County -Blaine Airport during 1984 which are provided for in the
Master Plan. For your information, I would like to update you on
what is being proposed for the Anoka County -Blaine Airport pursuant
to their 1984-85 Capital Improvement Program and the 1986-1990 Capital
Improvement Plan which was recently adopted by the Metropolitan
Airports Commission at their meeting on February 21, 1984.
The 1984-85 Capital Improvement Program, which was summarized
in
a memorandum to you dated January 3, 1984, copy attached, provides
for the following projects, a copy of the actual rage of the plan
addressing the Anoka County -Blaine Airport is 7.tached for your
information:
1984 Projects - overlay of runways, taxiways, aprons, etc.
` This is described as being a maintenance activity which has
previously been reviewed by the City and which has been
part of the Commission's Capital Improvement Plan for the
last several years.
Landing Aids $ 20,000
Building Area Development $800,000
1985 Projects - implementation of Phase I of the Master Plan,
with— the expenditures of $1,900,000 for the relocation of the
existing north/south runway and taxiway system 950 feet to
the north plus the extension of the existing east/west runway
to 4,000 feet.
Prior to the 1985 project commencing, the Metropolitan Airports
Commission will be conducting an environmental assessment as required
by State and Federal regulations. Staff has been in contact with
the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board, which is at this time
determining what regulations apply to the improvements being
constructed at the airport, i.e., State and/or Federal, and what
avenues the City has for pursuing an environmental impact statement
should the Metropolitan Airports Commission determine as part of
their environmental assessment that no significant environmental
impacts exist and an environmental impact statement is not necessary.

Also attached to this memorandum is a copy of the Metropolitan
Airports Commission Five Year Capital Improvement Plan for the
Anoka County -Blaine Airport which indicates that an additional
$600,000 would be spent in 1986 for Phase I-B implementation and
$1,500,000 in both 1989 and 1990 for Phase II improvements.
Also attached to this memorandum is a copy of my Administrative
Newsletter dated February 27, 1984 which addresses the issue of
correspondence received by Representative Knuth from MAC Director
of Planning and Engineering Nigel Finney regarding the adoption
of the Capital Improvement Program by the Metropolitan Airports

As a first step to commencing construction of the improvements called
for by the Master Plan, the Metropolitan Airports Commission is
required to perform an environmental assessment whereby they determine
if any significant environmental impacts result from the construction
and if negative impacts result, an environmental impact statement will
be required at the next step in the process. Staff will keep you
apprised of further developments as they occur.
MILLER INDUSTRIAL PARK FINAL PLAT
On Thursday, February 16th, staff met with Mr. Jim Miller and his
consultants to review what items will be necessary for them to submit
a final plat for Miller Industrial Park and any other applications such
as a wetlands alteration permit that might be required for them to
accomplish the Phase I development of the Industrial Park. It is anti-
cipated that the final plat will be received and submitted to the Council
within approximately 30 days.
TORNADO AWARENESS WEEK
Governor Perpich has proclaimed the week of March 25th through March 3Jst
as Tornado Awareness Week, with a statewide tornado drill being con
at 1:10 p.m. on Thursday, March 29th. In order to renew our awareni
the threat of tornadoes in Minnesota during the Spring months, staff nas
contacted the Fire Department and Police Department to ensure that drills
will be conducted in preparation for the tornado season, contacted the
School District to remind them of Tornado Awareness Week and receive
assurance that they will be conducting tornado drills in all of their
schools during the next few months, contacting the operators of the
elderly housing project to assist in the development of a tornado drill,
and preparing a reminder memorandum for City staff on what our duties
are should an emergency arise, as well as the meaning of the various
sirens sounded during severe weather alerts. Police Chief Ramacher and
I have discussed the need for a tabletop exercise which would simulate
a natural disaster in the City of Mounds View to determine the level
of preparedness presently in the City. It is anticipated that this
tabletop exercise will be conducted during the month of April, with
participation in the tabletop exercise including the Fire Department
and School District. Further updates on the development of the
tabletop exercise will be provided to you as we make progress towards
conducting such an exercise.

'111a ,Nbtr4vlitan Airports Connission, in its 1984 Capital Improvement
pr.cA7rmn, intends to initiate construction at the Anoka County -Blaine
Ait7ort of those item, identified in Phase IA in the Airport Master
Plan. This phase of development consists of the preparation of an
area on the east side of the airport for construction of additional
storxga hangars. The storage hangar area would be connected with
Runways 17/35 and 8/26 by partial parallel taxiways.
The Commission is also planning, during 1984, to move ahead with an
cnvironmental assessment of the proposed Phase IB development as out-
lined in the Airport Master Plan. This developrent incorporates Trove
of Runway 17/35 to,the north of approximately 1,000 feet, as well as
an extension of RLUAuav 8/26 to the east by 800 feet, to a total length
of 41000 feet. It is anticipated that a consultant will be selected
to carry out this environmental assessment, and that a majority of the
work will be accomplished during 1984 and early 1985. We would like to
have this inprovement project underway during 1985 in order to move
P.unway 17/35 to the north as early as possible. It is doubtful whether
the additional building area identified in Phase IB will be needed as
part of this project.
The Capital Improvement Program incorporating these items will be con-
sidered by the Detrcpolitan Airports Oamdssion at its meeting on
February 21, 1984. Should you have any questions regarding these items,

CHAPTER 8
PLAN IMPLEMENTATION
8.1 INTRODUCTION
In late 1979, the present master plan study for the Anoka County -Blaine
Airport was initiated. The study was based upon the Aviation Chapter of
the Metropolitan Development Guide which recommended development of
Anoka County -Blaine Airport as an Intermediate airport. The study was
initially oriented, therefore, toward evaluating the differential social,
environmental, and aeronautical impacts associated with development of
the airport as either an Intermediate or Minor facility. Also in 1979
the Minnesota Legislature, in House File No. 1 (Special Session),
established a two-year development moratorium at the airport and directed
preparation of a master plan.
At the outset of the plan, a broad citizen participation process was
established to ensure both that the public would be kept continually
informed and that the public would have a meaningful input to plan devel-
opment. The process included three major types of activities: (1) large
public meetings, (2) a series of workshops with an Advisory Task Force,
and (3) periodic newsletters. An initial large public meeting was held
on October 30, 1979, at the Blaine Senior High School. Opinion both in
support of and in opposition to airport development was expressed at this
meeting. Concern expressed at this meeting focused primarily on develop-
ment of the airport as an Intermediate facility, and the safely and
environmental issues inherent in this development.
Early in the study four conceptual alternatives were identified:
(1) development of an Intermediate airport primarily oriented in the
north -south direction; (2) development of an Intermediate airport
primarily oriented in the cast -west direction; (3) development of an
Intermediate airport with an entirely new orientation rotated to the
northwest -southwest; (4) development of a Minor airport.
176 ,
Through a series of meetings with the Advisory Task Force, the conceptual 1
alternatives were refined Into three Intermediate and three Minor airport
configurations. Each Advisory Task Force workshop was an informal
working session and Included active participation by all members. Within
the week following each workshop a summary memorandum to the MAC was
prepared. This synthesized the discussion in the workshop and detailed
the Task Force's position on the issues. This memo was also sent to the
Task Force members and to public reserve files at the Anoka County
Library branches at Blaine, Circle Pines, and Fridley.
In early 1980 the Minnesota Legislature, in the Supplemental Appropria-
tions Bills, approved a provision precluding the MAC from upgrading an
existing Minor airport to Intermediate status. As a result of the 1980
legislation, the MAC took action at the June, 1980 Commission meeting
"...to terminate the master plan for Anoka County -Blaine Airport as an
Intermediate Airport...[and]... to complete a Master Plan as a Minor
Airport...." Pursuant to the Commission action, the master plan study
has been limited to an evaluation of alternative development concepts
consistent with the airport's role as a Minor facility. In refining the
Minor airport alternatives, the primary goals were (1) to improve the —
compatibility of the airport with the surrounding communities to the
greatest extent possible, and (2) to provide facilities that would maxi-
mize the safety of aircraft operations at the airport. ,
Based on the two goals established for the airport, a series of alterna-
tl Ves '::ere develerm ned for evaluation. Thua!terna Lives are described
fo; lows :
o Alternative A. Existing Runway 17-35 would have its southern
threshold relocated 2,655 feet to the north, would be lengthened to
the north for a total runway length of 3,200 feet, and would serve
as a visual runway for flight training operations. A new
4,800-foot-long runway would be constructed 500 feet to the west.
This parallel runway, designated Runway 17R-35L, would Include an
Instrument Landing System (ILS) and would serve as the airport's
primary runway. Existing crosswind Runway 8-26 would be lengthened
800 feet to the east for a total length of 4,000 feet.
177
o Alternative B. The existing Runway 17-35 threshold would be relo-
cated 1,70 feet to the north, and the runway length would be reduced
to a total of 4,000 feet. It would serve as a crosswind runway.
Existing Runway 11-26 would be lengthened 1,600 feet to the east, for
a total length of 4,000 feet, would become the airport's primary
runway, and would have an ILS installed with precision approaches
from the east. A new parallel runway 3,200 feet long would be
constructed 500 feet to the north. It would be a visual runway, and
- would serve for flight training operations,
o Alternative C. This alternative includes parallel runways in both
orientations, providing equal capability, maximum operating flexi-
bility, and greatest potential for minimizing aircraft noise expo-
sure. The north -south parallel runways would be in the same loca-
tion as those for Alternative A. The east -west parallel runways
would be in the same location as those described for Alternative B.
// The primary runway in the east -west direction would include an ILS
with approaches from the east.
Parallel runways are proposed in the alternatives to increase operational
safety by physically separating high-performance aircraft and itinerant
operations from single -engine training activity. Potential conflicts
both in the air and on the ground can be avoided and the airport can
operate more safely and efficiently than if all traffic is mixed on a
single runway. The parallel runway also has Important environmental
benefits in that it places the repetitive training activity over areas
that are less densely populated, i.e., to the north of the airport for
Alternatives B and C, and between the existing runway and 1-35 and north
of relocated T.H. 10 for Alternatives A and C.
All of the alternatives have been designed to reduce noise exposure to
the south In Mounds View. This is accomplished by moving the southerly
threshold of the runways to the north either 1,700 feet or 2,600 feet.
This shift will significantly raise the altitude of aircraft over the
' community and could, in fact, virtually eliminate overflights.
178
In addition to the improvement in safety obtained from parallel runways, 1
further Improvement is provided by an air traffic control tower and
Instrument Landing System (ILS). The air traffic control lower will pro-
vide a more orderly environment for aircraft operations. It will be a
necessity to operate parallel runways. The ILS will provide positive
guidance to pilots operating into the airport in terms of both heading
and altitude. As such it allows a higher degree of operational safety;
the ILS also provides environmental benefits by reducing low -altitude
overflights,
The evaluation of alternatives Included consideration of both the natural ^
and human environment. The natural environmental parameters considered
were: (1) geology and soils, (2) vegetation and wildlife habitat,
(3) wetlands, (4) hydrology and water quality, and (5) air quality. The
human environmental parameters considered were: (1) noise, (2) sensitive
receptors aid special sites, (3) land use compatibility, (4) zoning com-
patibility, and (5) accessibility.
In general terms, the evaluation showed that no negative impacts exist in
the areas of geology and soils, vegetation aid wildlife habitat, hydro-
logy aid water quality, air quality, and accessibility. Some minimum
level of Impact can be expected on wetlands near the airport. Alterna-
tive A will have the least impact, Alternative B will have a greater
Impact than Alternative A, and Alternative C a slightly greater Impact
than Alternative B. _
The greatest difference between the alternatives is in noise exposure.
In the analysis, the following conditions were evaluated: (1) the
existing configuration with present-day traffic, (2) the existing airport
configuration with traffic at capacity, (3) Alternative A, (4) Alterna-
tive B, and (5) Alternative C. The primary operating condition for
Alternative A would be in the north -south direction. Alternative B would
be in the east -west direction. Total noise emissions would be the same
for either alternative, however. Alternative A would largely concentrate
noise exposure in the north -south direction. Alternative B would concen-
trate noise exposure in the east -west operating direction. Since wind
179
.J
conditions at Anoka County -Blaine Airport will permit operating in both
directions, Alternative C provides runways in both directions.
Alternative A would result in the greatest cumulative noise level off the
I
airport property to the south, but would produce a lower noise level than
if the existing configuration were to reach capacity. Alternative B
would produce the highest cumulative noise levels off the airport prop-
erty to both the east and west. Further, it would produce a noise expo-
sure pattern to the north and south approximately the same as exists
today, Alternative C would reduce cumulative noise exposure in both
operating directions by distributing at equal amount of traffic in both
directions.
Following preparation of a draft report containing the preceding Maly-
sis, a public meeting was held in Blaine on May 14, 1981, Again, both
support and opposition to airport development was expressed. Concerns
about airport development raised at this meeting focused on several
issues. These included consistency of the airport plan with the Metro-
politan Development Guide, providing a 4,800-foot runway and an ILS at a
Minor airport, and the absence of Commissioners at meetings regarding the
airport.
A 4,800-fool runway was included in each alternative because it is the
runway length presently available at the airport. The addition of an
ILS provides significant safety benefits to both airport users and to
those living in the surrounding area.
Following a careful evaluation of the Malytic material contained in
Chapters I through 7 of this report, staff advice, and public commentary,
the Minneapolis -Saint Paul Metropolitan Airports Commission selected
Alternative C for Implementation. At the same time the MAC instructed
that this alternative be modified slightly. Specifically, the Commission
directed that the length of all runways be limited to 4,000 feet In order
that the airfield be consistent with the guidelines of a Minor category
airport. Later, Alternative C was adjusted an additional time in order
to meet the requirements imposed by House File 1290. This prohibits MAC
180
from reducing the length of existing runways. As a result, Runway 17-35 I
retained its present length of 4,855 feet. The primary runway east -west
was lengthened from 4,000 feet to 4,855 feet. In final form, Alternative
C is referred to as Alternative C - Modified.
A draft final report was published in January 1983. The recommended plan
was Alternative C - Modified with dual parallel runways, the primary run-
ways in each direction being 4,855 feet long and the parallels 3,200 feet
long.
A public hearing was held regarding the draft master plan on June 28,
1983, at the Spring Lake Park High School. Three Commissioners served as
hearing officers. A presentation on the plan was made followed by the
receipt of statements from elected officials and the public.
The Hearing officer's report was presented to the Planning and Physical
Development Committee of the Metropolitan Airports Commission at its
meeting on August 2, 1983. This recommended that the length of the pri-
mary east -west runway, Runway BR-26L, be reduced to 4,000 feet.
At the Commission's direction, the length of Runway 8R-26L was reduced
from 4,855 to 4,000 feet in length and the final master plan prepared on
this basis. -.
In this chapter an implementation plat for Alternative C - Modified is —
presented. Development is divided into three phases which are related to
the levels of traffic indicated in the forecast of demand. In general
the three phases correspond to the following time frames: Phase 1,
1980-1985; Phase 2, 1986-1990; and Phase 3, 1991-2000. Development will,
of course, actually be Implemented only when a need is demonstrated.
Within each phase, specific projects to be implemented are identified.
For each project, a construction cost is provided. Noise exposure asso-
ciated with each phase Is also documented.

8.5 NOISE ANALYSIS
Noise exposure was measured using a methodology developed by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency and approved by the FAA. The day -night
r�-
sound level (Ldn) describes the average total daily noise exposure by
considering the cumulative effects of all single events throughout a
24-hour day, This measure is most useful when considering an airport
with continuous operations. Detailed information on this methodology was
provided in Chapter 7.
Exhibits 8-10 through 8-12 illustrate Ldn noise contours for each year
with the existing runway configuration remaining unchanged. Exhibit 8-13
Illustrates conditions for 1985 after completion of Phase 18. Exhibit

8-15, the year 2000 after Phase 3 completion.
8.6 SUMMARY
The development phases are designed to bring the airport's capacity to a
level compatible with the forecast increase in demand. This is accom-
plished through taxiway and runway improyements which occur in each
phase. The capacity of the airport at the completion of Phase 3 will
handle forecast Increases in peak hour and annual operations through the
year 2000. While the existing airport configuration is adequate to

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Counc'
FROM: Clerk-Administrat
DATE: March 8, 1984
SUBJECT: CHRISTOPHER COMPANIES DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
The City of Mounds view recently received a development proposal
from the Christopher Companies for the construction of a 133 unit
apartment complex in the area bounded by Bronson Drive and
County Road I on south and the ap
fronting on Jackson eDrive hand dGreenfield Avenue aonmthe eastlands
the
west, respectively. This proposal has been revMeeting
the evening of
Planning Commission and at their Regular Meeting ro osal which
Wednesday, March 7th, the attached Resolution No. 102-89 was
adopted recommending approval of the development
City:
would require the following action be taken by
1. Approval of a major subdivision combining ten lots into
one lot after conducting a public hearing.
2. Conditional Use Permit allowing the extraction of materials
from within the flood plain zoning district located on the
parcel after conducting a public hearing.
e 3. A flood plain use permit allowing for the excavation/placement
of fill within the flood plain zoning district.
4. Vacation of utility and drainage easements.
5. Vacation of the existing St. Stephen Street right-of-way
from Bronson Drive to County the Planning
hearing. This vacation was recommended by
Commission conditioned upon the retention of a storm water
ned to be
drainage/storage easement should it be detstorage by the
necessary for future storm water drainage/ 4
storm water management plan.
d sinthe residential planned
rmit for the construction
6. Issuance of a Conditional Use Pe
of f.lie development proposeusing al zoning Code after
unit development sections of the hfuni_ip
conducting a public hearing.
The issue staff wishes to place before you this evening is
whether or not it is your desire to conduct the four public hearings
that will be necessary prior to the approval of the major subdivision,
Conditional Use Permits, and street vacation at your March 26th
meeting or to instruct staff to conduct an evaluation of the long
rovided for the entire drainage district prior to
term nsure that adequate drainage
area -wide drainage impacts to i
and storage is p
velopment. Attached is a memorandum prepare
the approval of this de
-2-
by Consulting Engineer John Johnson which under Item 5 of his 14,
memorandum addresses the issue of drainage for the entire district.
Mr. Johnson notes that although the developer provides more than
adequate drainage for his site as required by Chapter 49A of the
Municipal Code, the City should be aware of the long-term issues
such as storm water management for properties outside of the site.
As stated previously, staff feels there are essentially two options
before the City Council for dealing with this development proposal
at this time and they are:
1. Schedule and conduct the public hearings at your Regular
Meeting on March 26th for the major subdivision, Conditional
Use Permits, and street vacation and, if necessary, table
action on those items at the March 26th meeting should the
issue of storm water management not be resolved; or
2. Table any further action on this item with direction to staff
that further evaluation of district -wide storm water drainage
issues be conducted.
Your direction on this matter is requested.

1417MO TO: Planning Commission and City Council
FROM: John C. Johnson, Consulting Engineer
DATE: March 2, 1984
SUBJECT: LANDMARK ESTATES DEVELOPMENT PLNA PREPARED BY THE
CHRISTOPHER COMPANIES
Per the request of the Clerk -Administrator, I have reviewed the
above referenced development plan. The following are the review
comments:
1. A ten inch sanitary sewer extension has been proposed
extending from Bronson Drive northerly to serve the
entire group of buildings. This ten inch sanitary sewer
line should be adequate to serve the building complex.
It should be determined whether this sanitary sewer
line will become the maintenance responsibility of the
City. If so, then an application into the Metropolitan
Waste Control Agency for a system extension should be
submitted and approved prior to start of any construction
work on the sewer. If the responsibility of the main-
tenance for the line remains with the developer, then it
would be considered a service and, therefore, not fall
/1 under the criteria of review by other agencies.
The developer proposes to construct an 8 inch water main
from the existing 12 inch water main located at Bronson
Drive northerly and easterly to connect with an existing
6 inch private water main near the Mounds View Estates
apartment buildings westerly of Groberg Street and Jackson
Drive. This line should meet the requirements for fire
flow layed out by the Fire Chief. It would appear the
buildings have sprinkler systems proposed and, therefore,
the need for fire flow volumes at hydrants may not be
necessary. Position of the hydrants and number of hydrants
should be varified by the Fire Chief.
3. The plan proposes to eliminate the possibility of extension
of St. Stephen Street between Bronson Drive and County
Road I. The City Council and Planning Commission probably
should determine as to what disposition should be made to
the existing St. Stephen Street right-of-way that exists
adjacent to the site in question.
4. The site plan involves area regulated under the Flood Plain
Ordinance, Chapter 49, for the City of Mounds View. The
Flood Plain Ordinance requires the minimum floor eleva-
tion be at least an elevation of 903. This criteria is
met on the site. In any case, the plan proposes to modify
the shape of the existing ponding area and, therefore,
u'
- 2 -
requires approval of a conditional use permit. Notification of
the proposed conditional use permit has to be sent to the
commissioner of the Department of Natural Resources to afford
them an opportunity to comment prior to final action by the
City.
5. The site in question is positioned at the northerly end of the
drainage area which extends generally from County Road I from
Long Lake Road and Quincy Street south to the City limits on
County Road H. This system is a complex drainage system and
currently has several segments that are under flow constraint
due to size and slope of existing storm sewer pipe. The site
in question is directly drained by a storm sewer pipe that runs
parallel with St. Stephen Street approximately one lot depth
west of St. Stephen Street. This pipe currently has a capacity
of approximately 7.1 to 7.7 cubic feet per second. The
proposed plan proposes to release water into this system at a
maximum rate of 4.5 cubic feet per second. The balance of the
runoff would be stored in a detension facility located at the
northern end of the site. The five year, one hour rainfall
discharge in the undeveloped state is 6.76 cubic feet per
second. Therefore, the developer has met the requirement of
Chapter 49A to limit his discharge to the five year,
undeveloped state or less. The plan provides for creation of a
detension facility at the northern end of the site that will
hold approximately 31,500 cubic feet of water that would have
to be obtained between the five year discharge rate and the 100C)
year rainfall rate. The top of the pond elevation would be
approximately 902, which coincides with the flood plain
elevation controlled by Chapter 49. The garage building at the
northern end of the site would be at or above elevation 903.
It should be noted that the existing center line elevation on
County Road I northerly of the site is at elevation 905,
therefore, water will enter the site from the roadway which is
not included in the storage volumes mentioned above. The
amount of water is dependent upon the severity of the storm
water as to whether drainage improvements might be installed
along County Road I.
It should be noted that the section of County Road I from Long
Lake Road to Quincy Street is currently not served by any storm
sewer system catch basins. The water on surface drains to
available ditches and/or pipe entrances located off or adjacent
to the rights -of -way of County Road I. With the upgrading of
County Road I, it is anticipated that at least a portion of the
county road will drain through this site. If that is the case,
an additional storage will be necessary on the site. The plan,
as present,�u, has little allowance, if any, for future ponding
needs resulting from the drainage of County Road I. The pond
will only provide for approximately 1.8 acre feet of storage or
80,000 cubic feet before garages at the northern end of the
site will become flooded. It is recommended that the City
1
-3-
obtain an easement over that portion of the pond area that will
be used for storm water storage at least to an elevation of
902.5, preferably to an elevation of 903. The purpose of the
easement will be to maintain and use that areas for emergency
storm water storage within the storm sewer system. The section
of County Road I from near Rdgewood Drive to Jackson Drive
drains at least partially onto this site. Future County Road I
plans would logically result in the water from this segment of
roadway draining through this property. Runoff from a 100 year
event from this section of County Road I would be approximately
38,000 cubic feet of water or approximately 8.86 acre feet. If
the entire segment of County Road I from Long Lake Road to
Quincy Street were drained to the site this number would
triple. In either case, it should be noted that the plan as
presented provides very little, if any, additional capacity for
future runoff consideration as it relates to the upgrading of
County Road I.
The plan as presented continues use of the ditch that runs the
entire west side of the property for storm drainage. This
ditch does place a constraint on the storm sewer discharge rate
and exists at a fairly flat grade, approximately one foot of
fall from the north to the south end of the site. This plan
further does not serve to help resolve the drainge concern that
exists at the intersection of Jackson Drive and Groberg Street
which now drains north to County Road I then westerly into the
site in question.
In conclusion, the plan as presented seems to meet the intension of
existing codes and/or City requirments for the interim period of time,
but may not serve to assist in resolving long term issues such as
storm water management for properties outside of the site. This
issue would be a difficult policy issue which would require resolving
of the need to have the developer provide system capacities for
properties other than his own. Resolving the long term drainage
solution requires a more indepth feasibility study as it will relate
to the improvement of County Road I and downstream system development
as part of the storm wate management plan. Development of this site
only lends impetus to the need to provide additional storage capacity
for the storm sewer system on the property undeveloped around the Bel
Rae Ballroom.

RE: CALL FOR INSURANCE QUOTATIO14S
Our insurance consultant, Corporate Risk Managers, Inc., is pres-
ently finalizing insurance specifications in order that quotations
may be solicited and an award made no later than May 1, 1984, the
renewal date cf our present policies. To obtain competitive
quotations it is our intent to publish a notice in our official
newspaper, the New Brighton Bulletin, calling for quotations.
In order that all agents receive an equal oppertunity to provide
us with a quotation, specifications will not be released until
noon on March 15, 1984. On that date copies of the specifications
will be placed in your packets for the Agenda Session of March 19,
1984. At that agenda Session Mr. Brian Colway of Corporate Risk

RE: INSURANCE SPECIFICATIONS
Mr. Brian Colway of Corporate Risk Managers, Inc., our insurance
consultant, will be present Monday evening to review the insurance
specifications which were released to interested parties at noon
today. A copy of those specifications is attached for your review
and consideration.
Prior to the release of those specifications staff became aware
that an agent had drawn up specifications on behalf of the City and
submitted those specifications to an insurance company and requested
quotations for insurance coverages. Staff became concerned that this
action could have an adverse effect on the bidding process. In most
instances an insurance company will only honor the first request re-
ceived for an insurance quotation on a particular individual or
business. Since the market for insurance for cities is limited to
a handful of insurance companies it is possible that a single agent
could tie up all markets. Such an action could preclude fair and
competitive bidding. It is possible an agent who picked up specifi-
cations today at noon and went directly to an insurance company for
a quotation could be refused a quotation by that company on the basis
ti. that the company had already provided a quotation to another agent.

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Coun �11
FROM: Clerk-Administrato J
DATE: March 7, 1984 '
SUBJECT: M.A.M.A. RECOMMENDED AGREEMENT WITH AFL-CIO LOCAL NO. 49
FOR CALENDAR YEARS 1984 and 1985
Attached to this memorandum please find correspondence received from
Mr. Jim Sporre, Chairman of the M.A.M.A.- 49 Negotiating Committee,
communicating the labor agreement for calendar years 1984-85 between
M.A.M.A. and AFL-CIO Local No. 49 representing the City's Public
Works employees. To summarize, the agreement provides the following:
1. The new agreement extends the existing Master Contract through
1985, with a reopener clause during 1985 for wages only and
local issues.
2. a) Health and life insurance contributions by the employer
are increased from $125.00 per month to $145.00 for
calendar year 1984 and $155.00 for calendar year 1985.
b) A now provision is added which allows, at the employee's
election, to have the employee's wages lowered from that
due them in an amount equal to that which they would have
to contribute for health, life, and dental insurance
coverage.
Staff has been advised that a recent IRS ruling on this
matter places a program such as this in a questionably
legal state. Staff would recommend approval of this
provision in the contract but no implementation until
the City Attorney and City Auditors can be consulted to
determine whether or not the City would be able to comply
with new IRS regulations and the provisions of the contract
as it relates to this matter.
3. The new agreement provides that the City may, at our discretion,
hire all new employees after February 7, 1984 in a new classi-
fication, Maintenance I, at the wage rate of $7.76 per hour.
This wage rate would be paid to new 'hires exceNt when operating
equipment defined by the Master Agreement as being Maintenance
Worker II or Maintenance Worker III, formerly heavy equipment
operator equipment. Maintenance Worker II equipment owned by
the City of Mounds View would be the new one ton dump truck
and Maintenance Worker III equipment would be the case front
end loader, sewer jet rodder, and older dump truck. When
operating these pieces of equipment Maintenance Worker I salaried
employees would be paid Maintenance Worker II or Maintenance
Worker III wages during the time they are operating this equip-
ment.
-2-
The new wage rates for Maintenance Worker
lhouand
oMaintenance '
Worker III would be an increase of 50C per
and $11 24 per hour, respectively.
Staff has thoroughly reviewed the conditions of this new agree-
ment and finds that it complies with the monies presently
budgeted for Public Works wages during 1984 and meets with the
City's stated desire to reduce future personnel costs for our
unionized employees.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would strongly recommend Council approval
of this a4rQement by resolution at your March 19th Council Meeting.

SUBJECT: RECOMMENDED AGREEMENT WITH IUOE, LOCAL NO. 49
FOR CALENDAR YEARS 1984 AND 1985.
A. ENCLOSURES
1. A copy of the signed MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING between MAMA
and IUOE, Local No. 49.
2. Replacement pages for your MAMA-IUOE, LOCAL 49 MASTER
AGREEMENT.
B. CONTENT OF NEW AGREEMENT
1. Duration (ARTICLE XXIV - DURATION)
The current MASTER AGREEMENT had a two-year duration of
calendar years 1983 and 1984.
The new AGREEMENT extends that two-year time period with an
agreement through 1985, with a reopener for negotiations
during 1985 only for wages (APPENDIX A) and LOCAL ADDENDUM
issues (individual city's APPENDIX B items).
2. Insurance (ARTICLE XIX - INSURANCE
a. ATIIouiii
The employer's maximum contribution for health and life
insurance is increased from $125.00 per month per
employee to $145.00 for calendar 1984 and $155.00 for
calendar 1985.

b. Dental Option
The dental option remains unchanged from 1983.
c. New Provision, Section 19.5
Employees, under Section 19.5, can choose to request that
their wages be lowered from that due them under APPENDIX
A so as to have the City pay all of the cost of the
employee and dependents health, life, and dental
coverage.
MAMA recommends that employees be given a single time
each year when they most inform the City of their choice
under 19.5 for the entire coming year.
3. Working Out of Classification (ARTICLE XXII)
WORKING OUT OF CLASSIFICATION PAY, ARTICLE XXII of the
1983 MASTER AGREEMENT is deleted from the 1984-85 MASTER
AGREEMENT.
This ARTICLE was deleted since its substance is dealt with in
the new wage appendix (APPENDIX A).
4. Wage Rates and Job Classifications
Based on the expressed mandate of the MAMA cities represented
by MAMA to lower the future costs of running their public
works departments, the new AGREEMENT provides that the cities
may at their sole discretion hire all new employees
(employees hired after February 7, 1984) in the MAINTENANCE I
classification at $7.76 per hour.
Employees so hired will receive a higher wage rate only whan
they operate the equipment listed in APPENDIX A, Sections C-1
or C-2.
The estimated future cost savings to the cities is quite
substantial.
In return for this future cost savings the AGREEMENT
grandfathers all employees hired previous to February 7, 1984
above the new MAINTENANCE I job classification and deletes
the old hire rate of 90% and One Year step rate of 95% of the
contract rates.

"'� MEMO TO: Mayor and City
FROM: Clerk-Administr
DATE: March 9, 1984
SUBJECT: PHOTOCOPIER
Staff has recently been approached by various suppliers of photo-
copier equipment and received proposals for the leasing of equipment
which would provide the City with substantially improved photocopying
equipment and capabilities at a lower rate than presently being paid
by the City of Mounds view for equipment which is inadequate with
respect to copy volume and sorter capability.
In view of this fact it would appear to be beneficial for the City
to receive proposals for the lease of photocopying equipment to
determine whether it would be to our benefit to cancel our current
lease agreement and enter into a new agreement for different
equipment. Sealed bids are not required for the leasing of this
equipment due to the fact that annual costs do not exceed $7,000
for equipment rental and supplies.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend Council authorization to
prepare a Request for Proposal form and seek proposals from photo-
copier suppliers in the Metropolitan area for equipment that would
meet our photocopying needs at a lower cost than presently being
experienced by the City of Mounds View for outdated and outmoded
equipment.

n MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk-Administrat
DATE: March 15, 1984
SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE REZONINGS
As you will recall, Engineering/Planning Technician Frank Kampel
submitted a memorandum to you dated February 16, 1984 outlining
staff recommended procedures for accomplishing the comprehensive
rezonings recommended to the City Council by the Planning Commission
as a result of their review of the City's Zoning Map in conjunction
with the new City Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive Plan. At that
time you authorized staff to mail notices to 15 properties in the
City that were recommended by the Planning Commission for rezoning
to the existing use of the property which would result in a "down
zoning" of the property. These letters were sent to the property
owners by certified mail with an explanation of the proposed rezoning
and a request that they return a postcard to the City within two
weeks indicating their objection to the rezoning or no objection,
and if the card was not returned within two weeks the City would
rezone the property with no further notice to them. Of the 15 notices
sent, the City received two objections and one letter was returned
as nondeliverable. Staff would recommend that individual public
hearings be held on these three pieces of property, along with other
controversial rezonings,and those parcels for which the owners had
no objection or no response to our mailing was received be rezoned
as noncontroversial rezonings where no notice be sent to the property
owners but publication of the hearing date and time be made in the
City's official newspaper. Attached for your review is a listing
of the properties to be rezoned indicating three types of notice
for rezonings. The different types are as follows:
Notice A - Noncontroversial rezonings where no notice will
be sent to the individual property owner but
notice will be published in the City's official
newspaper.
Notice B - Controversial rezonings with notice being mailed
to the affected property owner in addition to all
property owners within 350 feet and an official
notice published in the City's official newspaper.
Notice D - No notice will be sent for rezonings within this
category as the properties proposed to be rezoned
under this notice are owned by public entities.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend that the Council take the
following action at your March 26th Council Meeting by Consent
Agenda to set public hearings for Notice A and Notice D rezonings
which would be held at your April 9th Council Meeting at 7:40 p.m.
and 7:50 p.m., respectively.
-z-
Staff would further recommend Council authorize staff to prepare a
listing of the Notice D rezonings by geographical area, with a
recommendation for the time and dates the hearings for the different
groupings of rezonings could be held. Staff would also recommend
Council authorization to prepare a set of guidelines for Council's
consideration for holding the controversial rezoning hearings which
would establish a procedure for the hearings, including time limits
for individual testimony at these hearings. Upon initial review it
would appear that Council will need to hold a minimum of 15 hearings
by geographical groupings of those properties proposed to be rezoned
which are considered to be controversial. Thus, staff strongly feels
it would be appropriate to establish reasonable procedures for the
conduct of these hearings to avoid spending excessive amounts of time
attempting to accomplish these rezonings, thus not implementing them
within an appropriate period of time.

MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator and City Council
FROM: Building Inspector
DATE: March 15, 1984
SUBJECT: DEVELOPMrNT REQUEST OF F.M.L., INC. FOR
2740 HIGHWAY 10
Attached is a letter from F.M.L., Inc. requesting that the
City consider approving a development. This particular
development was reviewed by the City during the Spring and
Summer of 1981 and was formally approved by resolution by
the City Council on July 27, 1981. The developer at that time,
Frank M. Langenfeld and Sons Construction, Inc., did not follow
through with the necessary approval documents and construction
never occurred. The previous approval of July 27, 1981, did
include development agreement considerations of stirm water
management and, at that time, Resolution No. 983. Also
attached for your review is a site plan of the original proposal.
The proposed project requested will be almost three years old
in terms of previous approval. At the very least, approvals
from both Rice Creek Watershed District and the County for
access would have to be reviewed for current status. In addition,
the adoption of a new Zoning Code could place different require-
ments (staff has not reviewed the specifics) on the proposal.
The question then would be would staff just review the proposal
for its current status with today's existing Codes and other
agency approvals or would it be the Council's direction to have
the matter reviewed in its entirety, going back to the Planning
Commission and City Council. In any case, an additional
application for development should be made at this time with
expenses paid for any review that could take place.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend one of the following.
1) Staff require the developer to make application for develop-
ment, and require an application fee necessary to
cover staff 's review of the project to see if it is
current with today's City requirements and other agency
approvals.
2) Require the developer
necessary to cover the
Commission review and
Council.

We submitted a plan for our lot at the corner of Silver Lake Road
and Hwy. 10 in Moundsview in 1982. The plans called for a 5000+
Sq. Ft, office/retail building. That plan was approved by the city
council and the Rice Creek Watershed District.
Because of economic uncertainty as well as high interest rates, we were
unable to start construction of the building in 1982 or 1983.
We would like to begin construction of the building this year. Our
schedule calls for us to begin in June of 1984 with completion by
Oct. I, 1984.
We are requesting an updated approval of our building and site plan.
Please call if any additional information is needed.

MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator and City Council
FROM: Building Inspector
DATE: March 15, 1984
SUBJECT: DEVELOPMENT REQUEST OF GEORGE WINIECKI FOR
2732 HIGHWAY 10
Mr. George Winiecki, owner of the small office building located
at the above address, has requested what would be required of
him if he were to remodel the existing attached garage into
office space. Original development approval of the remodeling
of the single family home into office space did not include
remodeling of the garage area. Parking spaces calculated did
not include use of that area for office space. Therefore,
remodeling of the garage area would produce an additional
parking load, depending on its office use. Although the remodel-
ing of the space, for the most part, might seem a minor improve-
ment, an impact on parking would occur. In the past, the
Council has allowed minor improvements on commercial establishments
not requiring them to go through the development controls found in
59.07 of the Municipal Code if the overall impact was, basically,
unmeasurable. Staff would request direction from the Council
regarding this matter and its form of review and approval.
RECOMMENDATION: Unless the Council considers this remodeling
to be very minor, staff would recommend that the owner, George
Winiecki, be required to go through the development review
process in which requirements of Chapter 59.07 and Zoning Code
be required. The owner does have the room to provide for
additional parking and pending that would be required per other
sections of the Municipal Code.

5 ayes 0 nays Motion Carried
Councilmember Hankner questioned whether, in looking
at a membership in another organization that provides
lobbying services, a cost benefit analysis was done.
She pointed out that these groups represent numerous
cities, and questioned whether there could be a
conflict of interest at some time. She also pointed
out the City has memberships with other groups already,
and questioned the cost.
Mayor McCarty replied that experience has taught that
some of the major groups were not effective, and the
cost of $3,200 was reasonable.
Clerk/Administrator Pauley added that $7,700 has been
spent for the year, and this would bring the expense
close to $11,000.
Councilmember Hankner stated she was concerned about
joining another organization, especially one that is
not well established, and questioned whether considera-
tion was given to having a Councilmember lobby.
Councilmember Doty stated he feels the City does not
have enough representation at this time.
Mayor McCarty stated past experience has shown they
are only effective with their own Legislators, due to
time constraints, and they will use the track record
as a measure of success with the new lobbying group.
Motion/Second: Doty/Blanchard to approve Item D of

------------------------------------------------------------------------
7presentative Daniel Knuth gave a brief presentation 7. Discussion of fthe status of the airport issue, and discussed Anoka County -
he possible reinstatement of local government aides, Blaine Airport
which would impact Mounds View by $9,000. He added Improvements
that the chairs in both the House and Senate tax
committees have developed commissions to look into
local government aides, with hearings to be held
sometime during the legislative session. He urged
the Council to become involved in the process, and
added he would be glad to help in any way possible.
Representative Knuth discussed the situation of
unemployment compensation for volunteer firemen,
and explained he would be introducing a bill in the
House to exempt local fire departments from having
to pay this. He added that Don Frank would be carrying
it in the Senate.
Councilmember Linke pointed out that people are penalized
for getting a job before the first four -week period of
unemployment, and asked if that could be looked into.
Representative Knuth replied that was just one of the
many problems, and there is a committee discussing it,
long with other issues, such as seasonal employment.
oayor McCarty pointed out sections of Chapter 8 of the
airport plan which state the runway would be moved
2600' to the north, but then in the February 9, 1984
letter from MAC to Representative Knuth, it is stated
as being moved 900' to the north. He stated this
would have to be discussed with MAC for clarification.
He also presented copies of two newspaper articles
regarding the airport, and stated it is time for the
City to take action now.
Motion/Second: McCarty/Doty to authorize the City
Attorney to proceed with prosecution of the pending
lawsuit against the Metropolitan Council and
initiate a lawsuit against MAC regarding the Anoka
County Airport.
3 ayes 2 nays Motion Carried
Councilmembers Linke and Hankner voted against the
motion.
There was considerable discussion among all present
before the vote was taken on the previous motion.
�iyor McCarty suggested petitioning the Court for
temporary injunction, as well as determining
whether the City could bring in an outside con-
sultant to verify findings.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Attorney Meyers clarified there is a lawsuit now on
one issue against the Met Council, and the City has
prepared an outline to address certain issues in view
of the Master Plan that has been adopted by both the
Met Council and MAC. The strategy would be to add
MAC as an additional defendent in the lawsuit, to
bring in the issue of the reliability and accuracy
of the plan. In order to proceed, the City would
have to get outside consultants to review the plan
and testify, and the City would have to be able to
produce evidence to attack the plan.
Motion/Second: McCarty/Doty to amend the previous
motion to ave Attorney neyers coordinate the legal
involvement of the consultants employed by the City.
3 ayes 2 nays
Councilmembers Linke and Hankner voted against the
motion.
Councilmember Hankner reminded the Council that they
had earlier agreed to go ahead and seek consultants
for the study, then look at the cost and determine
whether it would be feasible to proceed. She also
reminded them the Legislature is in session right now,
and to surface the issue now could reactivate the
whole issue. There is a task force from the Met
Council right now that is studying the need for an
intermediate airport, and they could call for an
environmental assessment. Councilmember Hankner
stated she feels the Council is moving too fast.
Councilmember Doty stated he felt this legislation
has been grossly ignored by the Met Council and MAC,
and the City should proceed. He suggested having
Attorney Meyers activate the MAC into the suit,
and getting a court opinion if they will accept a
consultants study as evidence.
Attorney Meyers advised that a preliminary motion
may be made to have the case dismissed.
Mayor McCarty reported the City has received one
response from the letters sent out, indicating
this consultant was interested in doing the study,
at a cost of $20-30,000, and requiring 90 days to
complete.
Councilmember Hankner pointed out she does not feel
the City has a consultant until the Council has
reviewed them and discussed it, and the action the
Council had taken earlier was to authorize Staff to
go out and obtain bids, then have the Council
determine a course of action. She cautioned against
spending the taxpayers money so giii.ckly without first
thinking things through.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
e'`^uncilmember Linke asked if it was necessary to have
preliminary study in hand before going into court.
,+ttorney Meyers replied that it would be helpful, as
if there is an early move to have the case dismissed,
he would need the back-up evidence. He added that in
seeking a consultant, the City has used all the names
available and gotten a very poor response, but Clerk/
Administrator Pauley is contacting them again, trying
to get more to respond.
Representative Knuth stated he shared concern about
entering into a lawsuit over what would happen with
the Minneapolis delegation in regard to this issue.
tie added he feels the threat is there to upgrade to
an intermediate airport, and the Council should be
very careful, as their motion was very all -encompassing,
and would be better broken down, as there are at least
three different opportunities the City could move for-
ward on. He advised looking at any actions taken during
the legislative session that could trigger a very active
response from the Minneapolis delegation, as the
response would have to be met by the local membership
in the House and Senate. He advised assessing very
carefully the response the Minneapolis delegation might
have.
Ipresentative Knuth also advised the Council to assess
the value of the McCarron legislation in place in rela-
tionship to the lawsuit and the value of its removal,
as if there is no law the Council can point to that is
in direct violation, they would not have a strong stand.
Mayor McCarty stated the City cannot delay any longer,
and allow MAC to expend funds, and if the City does not
move, they will face a delaying question from the courts.
He recommended asking for an EIS. He also expressed
his concern with an MLS, as it would allow the National
Guard at the airport. He also explained he had applied
for membership on the Metropolitan Council Task Force
and been told not to bother.
Representative Knuth again cautioned the City on any
action they might take, and advised them to look at a
progressive lawsuit, which would insure several fallback
options.
Councilmember Hankner recommended following the plan of
action agreed on by the Council 6 or 8 weeks ago, and
reminded the Council they need to get their evidence
together before proceeding.
b Beutel responded to comments by Mayor McCarty con-
-erning him and actions he has taken. lie explained
he supported alternate C as being the least possible
damage the City could live with. He explained he has
put in hundreds of hours and personal money in working

on the airport issue. He stated he did suggest the MLS
be installed, and pointed out the FAA has had so much
trouble adopting MLS standards that MLS equipment would
not be available to the Anoka County Airport for at least
another, decade. He stated that his personal preference
would be for an ILS.
Mr. Beutel asked that everyone hang together in fighting
dvised that if the City does every -
for this cause, but athing now, he expects they would be shot out of the watererts,
as the timing is loaded. HHerecommended

staying out of court until the end of the Legislative
session . He also pointed out the next Task Foodetmmettog

whether there is a need for a second intermediate airport.

asking for a two week response to his letter
