5 ayes 0 nays
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.
Motion Carried
Mayor McCarty replied that experience has taught that
some of the major groups were not effective, and the
cost of $3,200 was reasonable for professional lobbyist services.
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 future track record
as a measure of success with the new lobbying group.
Motion/Second: Doty/Blanchard to approve Item D of

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Representative Daniel Knuth gave a brief presentation 7. Discussion of
of the status of the airport issue, and discussed Anoka County -
the possible reinstatement of local government aids, Blaine Airpor'
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 aids, 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. Ile 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.
presentative Knuth replied that was just one of
3 many problems, and there is a committee discussing
it, along with other issues, such as seasonal employ-
ment.
Mayor 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.

Mayor McCarty stated his reasons for the lawsuit
as being:
1. We intend to pursue the legal question as to
the control the Metro olitan Development Guide
has over the types ofpfacil1ties L'— hat can be
installed in various classes of airports.
2. We question whether there is a basic need for the
upgrading of the Anoka County Airport.
3. We intend to determine and pursue whether there
are environmental questions to resolve.
4. We intend to determine whether the City, by
virtue of property ownership, and/or residents
will sustain compensable damages as a result
of the airport upgrading.
Mayor McCarty asked Attorney Meyers for his
recommendation regarding petitioning the Court
for a 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 have Attorney Meyers coordinate the legal
involvement of the consultant employed by the City.
3 ayes 2 nays Motion Carried
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
March 12, 1984
Mounds View City Council page Live,
Regular Meeting -
--------------------------------------------
Cmcil 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
consultant's 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
d in in
atla costuOfant was $20-30,000, and erequiringg90hdays uto
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
mcil had taken earlier was to authorize Staff to
out and obtain bids, then have the Council
uetermine a course of action. She cautioned against
spending the taxpayers money so quickly without first
thinking things through.
Councilmember Linke asked if it was necessary to have
a preliminary study in hand before going into court.
Attorney 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.
He 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
}tie legislative session that could trigger a very active
ponse from the Minneapolis delegation,
ion, as the
ership
_ sponse would have to be met by
in the House and Senate. He advised assessing very
carefully the response the Minneapolis delegation might have.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Representative 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. tie 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 6 weeks ago, and
reminded the Council they need to get their evidence
together before proceeding,
Bob Beutel responded to comments by Mayor McCarty
and actions he has taken. He 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
for this cause, but advised that if the City does every-
thing now, he expects they would be shot out of the water,
as the timing is not right. He recommended using experts,
and getting the guns loaded. He also informed the Council
that the noise level at the Minneapolis/St. Paul Interna-
tional Airport will soon be at its greatest level ever,
due to construction and the move of the Air National
Guard to the airport, so he advised laying low and
staying out of court until the end of the Legislative
Session. He also pointed out the next Task Force meeting
will be held in this area, which would be a good time to
make a presentation, as well as a time to question
whether there is a need for a second intermediate airport.

uennis Patrini, 8434 Sunnyside Road, stated tie feels
Mounds View is going to get an intermediate airport,
no matter what is done, and he feels the City's own
Legislators are the biggest threat, as they are not
willing to proceed.
Councilmember Hankner asked Mr. Patrini if he would
be willing to lobby if the question is brought up
again in the Legislature. Mr. Patrini replied maybe.
LeeAnn Sporre, a resident of Fridley, stated she is
a member of a task force committee that has dealt
with this issue since day one. She advised that the
issue will be discussed on March 26, at 11 AM, at the
MPCA meeting, and recommended the City go ahead with
the battle now.
Mayor McCarty stated that it has been frustrating to
have requested explanations from MAC, for example the
reason for an ILS where 85% of the pilots were not
rated for such systems, and not receive complete
answers. This is one of the many reasons for my
.motion to implement the lawsuit.
incilmember Hankner pointed out the motion does tie
the City into expense, and she does not feel this is
strategically the best time to proceed with the lawsuit,
and they should instead gather information, and as
elected officials, take the best course of action for
the City.
Councilmember Doty questioned whether, if the Council
passes the motion now, it would be premature and if
the City would be damaging its position in court.
Attorney Meyers replied he is concerned with obtaining
the best expert advice possible, that will answer the
questions in all areas, and they must be able to name all
the issues involved, and have appropriate supporting
evidence. He added he needs the tools to do the job,
and the Council must decide the political consequences
of proceeding. Meyers indicated that he would file
the lawsuit only after obtaining sufficient data and evidence.
Councilmember Blanchard stated she had no statement to
make on the issue.

Councilmember Linke pointed out that earlier in the
year the Council authorized Attorney Meyers to go ahead
at any time he feels the lawsuit should be implemented,
and that Attorney Meyers has stated he would like to
have the consultant study in hand and preliminary work done
before returning to court. He stated he has not had
an opportunity to review the consultant proposal.
Councilmember Hankner stated she also was not given
anything to 'review from the consultant who has expressed
interest in working for the City. She also pointed out
that according to the agenda, the topic for this
evening was a discussion of the Anoka County -Blaine
Airport improvements, not whether to proceed with legal
action.
Councilmember Blanchard stated that since site did not
make a statement during the lengthy debate, she would
like to preface her vote by saying that because this
motion only reaffirms what the Council did previously,
she would vote yes.

resolution, which would read "Whereas over the last
several weeks announcements have been made by major
corporation in Minnesota that they would be moving
facilities or expanding facilities to states other than
Minnesota due to the adverse corporate and property tax
situation that is presently experienced within the State
of Minnesota, and, whereas the Minnesota Legislature during
its 1984 session has, and will be, considering several
pieces of legislation which would provide for corporate
and property tax relief or other incentives, and, whereas
it is the desire of the City of Mounds View to represent
the best interests of the citizens of its community and
State of Minnesota by encouraging the retention of major
corporations and sundry jobs, now therefore be it resolved
by the City Council of the City of Mounds View that it
supports appropriate compromise legislation by adoption
by the 1984 legislative session that would result in the
provision of corporate and property tax relief to
corporations in the State of Minnesota that would retain
or expand facilities, thus causing the retention of jobs."

(612/566-6168)
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John C. Johnson, P.E.
DATE: March 22, 1984
SUBJECT: CHRISTOPHER COMPANIES DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
Mr. Pauley requested me to respond to the following questions raised
by the City Council at the March 12, 1984 Council meeting.
1. Are garages located in area regulated by Chapter 49-Flood
Plain ordinance?
2. Analyze impact of run-off from outside the site on proposed
project.
3. Should St. Stephen Street be retained for drainage purposes?
Review of the site plan indicates that the existing drainage ditch
will be located under the driveway at the North end of the project.
This ditch is regulated under Chapter 49. The applicant proposes to
fill the ditch (4500 cu. ft. of fill below elevation 902) and provide
additional storage volume in the area northerly of the proposed
garages. The additional volume to be excavated is approximately 8900
cu. ft. or approximately 4400 cubic feet of additional storage. This
more then exceeds the requirements to provide flood storage volume
estimated as part of the F.E.M.A. Flood Plain Study.
The drainage subdistrict that flows into the existing pond area is
estimated to be 39.3 acres plus 9.39 acres included within the
project. Analysis of the future subdistrict drainage needs indicates
that an additional approximately 16 acres North of County Road I
could be drained into the pond area, but currently flows into the
Hillview ditch. See attached sketch illustrating areas draining into
the pond.
Mayor and City Council
Page 2
March 22, 1984
The applicant's consultant estimated the required storage volume for
the proposed project was between 0.69 acre-feet and 0.82 acre-feet
depending upon the allowable rate of discharge from the pond. The
pond area as designed can store 2.19 acre-feet below elevation 902
and 3.28 acre-feet below elevation 903. This leaves between 1.37
acre-feet and 2.46 acre-feet of storage volume which could be used
for runoff from upstream portions of the drainage subdistrict.
The analysis concludes that the existing ditch drainage system
suffjripntly retnrda runoff ratee so as to preclude nny pear term
flooding problems. At such time as County Road I is upgraded and a
storm sewer is developed it may be necessary to expand the storage
volume of the pond area or increase the allowable discharge rate from
the pond area.
The existing St. Stephen Street right-of-way is not located so as to
allow its use for increasing significantly the pond storage volume.
A better option would be to investigate utilization of the area
between the proposed project and the Jackson and Groberg Street
intersection for additional ponding purposes. Therefore, it is
recommended to proceed with vacation of the street right-of-way as
proposed by the developer. The portion of the street right-of-way '
easterly of the project area should be vacated as prescribed by City
code and/or State statutes.

Ao„` MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Director of Public Works/Community Development
DATE: March 22, 1984
SUBJECT: GALE/YOST ADDTION PRELIMINARY PLAT/
FAIRCHILD AVENUE EASEMENT VACATION
Attached is a copy of the proposed Gale/Yost Addition preliminary
plat. The proposal is a major subdivision request which will
require public improvement. The City has received a petition for
the public improvement and a feasibility report has been
submitted. After the feasibility report was received the City
directed the developer to submit a preliminary plat. Staff has
the following comments:
1. Lot sizes are adequate in both area and frontage (11,000
square feet and 75 feet wide).
2. The garage and shed will be removed.
3. Radius for cul-de-sac is 60 feet and the subdivision code
requires 65 feet minimum.
4. The City road easement on Fairchild Avenue will be used to
construct a portion of the cul-de-sac.
5. The setback of the house directly to the east, is
approximately 25 feet.
6. There are no provisions for water, sewer or water
retension.
7. The City Council has not formally accepted the feasibility
study.
The Planning Commission recommends approval of the preliminary
Plat and a variance on the subdivision so that the cul-de-sac can
have a radius of 60 feet provided the Fire Chief can operate his
vehicles in the area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the easement
vacation be tabled until April 9, 1984. Further that on April 2,
1984 the City Council consider development agreement requirement
and project approval which would indicate the portion on
Fairchild necessary for public right-of-way for the proposed
development,

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk-Administrat
DATE: March 26, 1984
SUBJECT: PLEASANT VIEW DRIVE STREETLIGHT PETITION
Attached to this memorandum please find a copy of a memorandum
from Frank Kampel regarding a petition received by the City on
March 2nd for the placement of streetlights between 8280 and 8284,
8370 and 8380, and 9412 and 8422 Pleasant View Drive.
In his memorandum, Mr. Kampel indicates that the streetlight pro-
posed to be placed between 3412 and 0422 Pleasant View Drive would
require the payment of $500.00 by the City of [•founds View due to the
fact that a transformer is not located at this site and would require
tunneling from the transformers located on either the north or south
sides of this site.
After reviewing Mr. Kampel's memorandum, I discussed the matter
with Police Chief Ramacher and the resident who circulated the
petition, who resides at 8350 Pleasant View Drive. After discussing
the matter in detail with these individuals and viewing the proposed
location of streetlights in both daylight and evening hours, it is
my recommendation that lights be placed at the following locations:
�•' 1. Between 8280 and 8284 Pleasant View Drive.
2. Between 8350 and 8360 Pleasant View Drive.
3. Between 8370 and 8380 Pleasant View Drive.
4. Between 8392 and 8402 Pleasant View Drive.
The recommendation for the two lights between 8350 and 8380
Pleasant View Drive is the fact that the distance involved is in
excess of 250 feet which is permissible under the resolution when
a long block exists and the fact that this area of the street is
quite dark due to the curvature of the road and placement of trees
along the boulevard areas. The proposal for a light between 8392
and 8402 Pleasant View Drive is based on the fact that a transformer
presently exists on the property located at 8392 Pleasant View Drive
and Northern States Power has advised that they will place a light
at the site indicated at no additional charge to the City. This will
require a determination by the City Council that the light is being
placed at that location over the objections of the property owner in
view of the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the
area. You will note on the attached drawing that a significant number
of residents in the area have signed a petition for the placement of
a streetlight and it would seem unreasonable for one or two residents
to prevent the placement of a light which will not be harmful to anyone
and would be in the best interests of all of the residents of the area.
RECONNENDATION: Staff would recommend Council authorization by
Consent Agenda for the placement of streetlights at the following
locations:
1. Between 8280 and 8284 Pleasant View Drive.
2. Between 8350 and 8360 Pleasant View Drive.
3. Between 8370 and 8380 Pleasant View Drive.
4. Between 8392 and 8402 Pleasant View Drive.

MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator
FROM: Frank J. hampel
DATE: March 2, 1984
SUBJECT: PLEASANT VIEW DRIVE STREET LIGHT PETITION
On March 2, 1983 I reviewed a petition for the installation of
three street lights on Pleasant View Drive North of Highway 10. The
locations of the proposed lights are as follows:
a) Set -cc- 8290 and 8284 (A)
b) Between 8370 and 8380 (B)
c) Between 8412 and 8422 (c)
All proposed lights would be located on the West side of Pleasant
View Drive. The lights proposed between 8280 and 8284 and the one
proposed between 8370 and 8380 are immediately adjacent to a pad
mounted electrical transformer. There is no charge for the instal-
lation of these lights. The one proposed between 8412 and 8422 is
not proposed to be located next to a transformer. The nearest trans-
former is located two lots away and thus, NSP would charge approx-
imately $500.00 for the installation of this light. This amount is
due to the need to trench and to tunnel under two existing drive-
ways plus the need for extra cable.
A sufficient number of signatures have been recieved for the lights
labled B and C. A property owner directly affected by proposed street
location labled A has not signed the petition. The people in the imme-
diate area who signed want the light because of break-ins that have
occured and also because the block is extremely dark at night. Some of
Mounds View more expensive homes are located on this block. This is an
extremely long block (one of the resolution requirements for the
installation of a light) and no light is placed closer than 250
feet from another light. For a installation of a light between 8280
and 8284, the Council would have to cite a safety, health and wel-
fare reason to install the light.
Attached please find a copy of the plat map showing the existing and
proposedlight placement along with the petition.
Please contact the Amozi family (786-5969) advising them when this
item will be discussed by the Council.

' MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator and City Council
FROM: Director of Public Works/Community Development
DATE: March 27, 1984
SUBJECT: MUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEM ELECTRICAL ANALYSIS
The subject report by Toltz, King, Duvall, Anderson and
Associates,. Inc. dated March 19, 1984 indicates several problem
areas:
1. Short Circuit - The small circuit breakers are not
adequately rated in well Nos. 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 dnd the booster
station. This problem is a safety hazard and a technical
Code violation.
2. Grounding - Well No. 1 grounding system should be cleaned
and reconnected and a new driven grounding rod installed.
The system ground connection should be secured and bonded
at Well Nos. 3, 4 and the booster station as soon as
possible. Bill Hanson and Bill Hanggi have indicated to me
that they can do this work.
3. Power Factor Correction - A power factor correction should
be installed on the motor circuits for Well Nos. 1, 3, 4
and the booster station. This is necessary because
applicable electric rates include a penalty for a power
factor below 90 percent. The pay back period is
approximately 2 years for the well pump motor capacitors.
The pay back is approximately 4 years for the booster pump
motors due to alternating operation.
Aluminum (Al) Wire - The aluminum conductors in Well Nos.
3, 4, 5, 6 and the booster station should either be removed
and replaced with copper or properly terminated with dye
applied compression connectors. The cost of furnishing and
installing new copper is approximately $500.00 per well
more than properly terminating the aluminum conductors.
Mr. E. J. Budke, T.K.D.A., has verbally indicated to me
that either procedure is acceptable.
Well No 1 Control Center and Pump Starter - The pump
starter is obsolete and in poor and unreliable condition.
It has undergone many emergency repairs. My understanding,
from Bill Hanggi, is that the pump motor initially starts
at a lower r.p.m. then speeds up to the operating r.p.m.
If a starter is purchased, it should be capable of handling
this motor and pump combination.
The control center has old fabric insulated wiring and is
not sectioned like newer equipment. The cost to solve this
problem is $6,300.00. This problem is not severs and could
wait if funds are not available.
March 27, 1984
Page Two
6A. Controls - The existing electrical mechanical level
transmission and receiving equipment has become obsolete
and difficult to service. Solid State equipment should be
installed in the near future.
6B. Pumping Control Timer - If we decide to pump the wells on
off peak hours, the installatin of time of day, seven day
programmable equipment for pumpig control will be
necessary.
7. City Hall Parking Lot Power Receptacles - The estimated
cost of installing power receptacles with circuit breakers
=1 associated wiring to provide electricity for tank
heaters on 6 vehicles is $4,000.00. On Monday mornings
after cold weekends, the City vehicles have been hard to
start.
8. Pumping Drinking Water - The City is spending too much
money on eletricity for pumping drinking water. The City
can save approximately $14,000.00 per year by pumping at
off peak hours. Pumping wells at off peak times is a
viable way to save money. However, the City should make
sure that the fire insurance rate is not dropped due to
this change.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Oork on Well No. 4 should not be done
until the water quality problem is corrected. Solving problem 7
does not seem cost effective. We recommend solving problems 1,
2, 3, 4 and 6B (minus well #4 work) immediately. We recommend
solicitng quotes from electricians to correct problems 1 and 4.
Staff can correct problem 2. Specifications should be prepared
to solve problems 3 and 6B.
1) Estimated cost for problems 1 and 4 is 510,500,
2) Estimated cost for problem 2 is UM
3) Estimated construction cost for problems 3 and 6B is
$7,900.
Plans, specifications and contract administration for
problems 3 and 6B is $4,000.
Estimated total cost for problems 3 and 6B is 511,900.
-> We recommend solving problems 5 and 6A 'if money is
available. Estimated construction cost is $34,800,
estimated design and contract administration is $10,000 for
an estimated total cost of 44,800.
1) If problems 3, 5, 6A and 6B can a designed and bid
together, the estimated construction cost would be $42,700,
estimated design and contract administration would be
$12,000 for a total estimated cost of 54 700.
2) The estimated total cost to solve problems 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6A and 6B is $66,i00, '

MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator and City Council
FROM: Public Works/Community Development Director
DATE: March 27, 1984
SUBJECT: M.S.A. STREETS
I. Background
The Minnesota Department of Transportation has $730,941
available for contruction of Municipal State Aid (M.S.A.)
streets within the City limits of Mounds View. If this
amounL is noL reduced below $2510882 by .Tuna 3n, 1984, the
state will reduce this fund by an estimated $50,000 in 1984.
Therefore, this memo is evaluating the possibility of
constructing a $500,000 street project.
II. M.S.A. Requirements
The project must be on a street designated M.S.A. by the
Minnesota Depatment of Transportation. Drawing No. 1
(attached) indicates the M.S.A. streets in the City of Mounds
View. The M.S.A. streets designation may be changed to other
streets in the City if approved by the District State Aid
Engineer and the Commissioner of Transportation. An M.S.A.
street in Mounds View must have a minimum 9 ton structural
design. This normally consists of 6 inches of class 5 base
followed by 4 inches of bituminous. Soil borings are
required to determine the design thickness. An M.S.A. street
in Mounds View with a 30 mile per hour design speed in a high
traffic density area, can have the following widths from face
to face of outer curbs:
a. Undivided with no parking lanes 32 feet
b. Undivided with parallel parking lanes 36 feet
on one side
c. Undivided with parallel parking lanes 44 feet
on both sides
Vehicle counts will be required to varify the density. The
curb and gutter must be concrete and the style must be 6-18.
Storm sewer is required.
III. Potential Projects
The project to rebuild County Road I from Silver Lake Road to
the City limits is dependent upon Spring Lake Park classi-
fying their road as M.S.A. At this time, we do not believe
that Spring Lake Park will classify their road in time for us
March 27, 1984
Page Two
to design and take bids by June. If Spring Lake Park does
proceed, we can add this project as an addendum later on this
summer. Please refer to the following table of potential M.S.A.
projects. 10
POTENTIAL M.S.A. PROJECTS
Exist. Pavement Average Estimated
Classifi- Street Surface Daily Total
Street From To cation Width Stress Traffic Cost*
Edgewood Cc Rd H Co Rd H2 M.S.A. ' 42 ft. M20 1,400 $260,000
Quincy Cc Rd I Hillview M.S.A. 42 ft. M10 --- $135,000
Co Rd I Silver Lk Hwy 10 M.S.A. 24 ft. S30 --- $180,000
Hillview Hwy 10 Jackson M.S.A. 42 ft. M20 --- ---
*Please refer to Section IV for a cost breakdown.
Constructing a road on Quincy from County Road I to Belle
lane will take additional time because the parking problems
in front of Pinewood school will need to be solved. The
perpendicular parking problems at the school could delay an
M.S.A. project in the area.
The storm sewer work on Edgewood, Quincy and County Road I
includes moving or replacing catch basins and their associated
lead pipes. The M.S.A. funds pay for 100% of this storm sewer
work. The storm sewer system on Hillview needs additional study
before an M.S.A. road is constructed.
IV. Proposed Improvements and Estimated Costs
The proposed improvements will meet M.S.A. requirements. The
estimated total costs are as follows:
ESTIMATED COST PER 1,000 FEET
Unit
Description Unit Price Quantity Total Price
4" thick bituminous (44' wide) Ton $ 26.00 1,100 S 28,600.00
6" thick class 5 gravel (44' wide) Ton $ 6.00 1,700 $ 10,200.00
Concrete curb and gutter L.F. $ 7.00 2,000 $ 14,000.00
Adjust manholes E.A. $200.00 3 $ 600.00
Adjust gate valve E.A. $200.00 3 $ 600.00
Remove existing material C.Y. $ 20.00 1,400 $ 22,8004

The City can hire a consultant to design the project or. the City
can design the project in-house. The estimated cost of hiring a,
consultant to design, inspect and stake the project is $80,000
($500,000 X 16%).
If. the City designed, inspected and staked the project we can bill
M.S.A. for our costs. M.S.A. will pay these costs up to 16% of
the construction cost of the project without documentation. I can
design and write the specificatons. Bill Hanggi and a temporary
full-time civil technician can survey and stake the project. The
technician can draft and provide inspection.
In summary, the existing staff can do a majority of the work, however,
we will need approval to do the following:
1. Hire a temporary full-time Civil Technician
$12.00 X 40 hrs. X 40 weeks = $19,200 $20,000
hour week
2. Authorize overtime for secretary (if necessary) $ 4,000
3. Conduct soil borings and soil strength $ 3,500
determination (Braun Engineering), Use City
drill truck
4. Hire outside consultant services, Short -Elliott- $ 5,000
Hendrickson (if necessary). Duties include helping r
design intersection of County Road I and Highway 10
and insuring prompt review by the state.
5. Purchase miscellaneous drafting material and $ 500
supplies
$33,000
We believe that the City can save money by designing and inspecting the
project in-house.

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk-Administrat
DATE: March 28, 1984
SUBJECT: 1984 SPRING CLEAN UP DAY
As discussed with you at the Council Meeting on March 26th, several
issues need to be decided by the City Council prior to publicizing
the Spring Clean Up Day for 1984 which has been scheduled for
May 19th. The specific issues are as follows:
1. Time of event. In the past it has been the City's practice
to have the Spring Clean Up Day from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
however, it has been my observation over the past three years
that the major activity occurs between the hours of 9:00 a.m.
and 3:00 p.m., therefore, I would recommend that the hours for
the 1984 Spring Clean Up Day be from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
2. Waste hauler. In the past two years the City has used Waste
Control, Inc. to do the hauling of the materials collected
during the day's activities. This company has provided the
City with most satisfactory service and I have been advised
that they will do the work for 1984 at a cost of $135.00 per
load, with a one time delivery charge of $25.00. This is an
increase of $5.00 per load, with the addition of the $25.00
delivery charge. After reviewing prices received in 1983
for the same work and considering the fact that the level of
service we have received has been most satisfactory, staff
would recommend the City use Waste Control, Inc. during the
1984 Clean Up Day.
3. In 1983 the City had a Public Works employee present on an
overtime basis for a four hour period during the afternoon
of the Clean Up Day to use the front end loader to pack down
the 30 yard containers thus allowing us to have more material
hauled using the same number of boxes we had used in previous
years. Staff would recommend that Council again authorize the
use of a Public Works employee on an overtime basis during the
1984 Clean Up Day for the entire six hour period.
Staff would appreciate Council direction in each of these items.

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Clerk -Administrator
DATE: March 28, 1984
SUBJECT: CONTROVERSIAL REZONINGS
At the March 19th Council Meeting you directed staff to prepare
recommended schedule for the public hearings for the 17 parcels
of property which have been proposed to be rezoned under the
comprehensive rezoning process and have been identified as being
of a controversial nature. City Attorney Meyers and I met and
discussed the scheduling of the hearings and would recommend the
following:
May 14 - Church Triangle
2740 Highway 10
2 lots north of 7190 Silver Lake Road
South corner of Old Highway 8 and County Road H
May 28 - Harstad Property, Silver Lake Road
Mid -American Auto
K Gas Station
Steve's Appliances
June 11 - Import Auto
7860 Groveland Road
Simon's Liquor
PAC Company
2806/08 Highway 10
Northeast Marine
June 25 - 7801 Silver Lake Road
7373 Knollwood Drive
2752 County Road H-2
Each of these items would have a separate hearing per the recommenda-
tion of the City Attorney, with the hearings being scheduled 15
minutes apart for purposes of. notification. Thus, the hearings would
be held at 7:45, 8:00, and so on.
In discussing the procedures for conducting the hearings for these
controversial rezonings Attorney Meyers suggested that there is a
need for an advocate to be present at these hearings to speak on
behalf of the rezonings and the reasons for why these rezonings are
being proposed by the Planning Commission. I have had preliminary
conversations with Planning Commission Chairperson Peg Mountin and
she has indicated that she will be present at your April 2nd Agenda
Session to discuss the need for an advocate to be present at these
hearings and what individual or individuals would be most appropriate
to serve that purpose. The reason Attorney Meyers is recommending
the need for an advocate is that these rezonings are being recommended
-2-
by the Planning Commission, not the City Council, and it would be '
inappropriate for a member of the Council to justify or defend the
proposed rezonings to any opponent. Also, as the staff member who
worked predominantly with the Planning Commission during the process
of developing the comprehensive rezoning, Frank Kampel, is no longer
with the City, there is no staff member who would be fully informed
of the reasoning for each of these individual rezonings being
recommended.
A final item that was raised during staff conversations regarding
those rezonings determined to be controversial is the need for the
City Council to make a decision prior to the public hearings as to
w}1PtI'fer !fir .^.�,t yv�.1 are inclined to give serious consideration to
each rezoning individually. If it is your conclusion on an informal
basis that you do not feel a certain rezoning or rezonings are
proper, the need to proceed with the public hearing is highly
questionable and staff would recommend that you meet with the
Planning Commission to discuss those which you might feel are
questionable before holding the hearings in order to avoid the
creation of unnecessary controversy.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff would recommend the following actions be
Taken by the City Council:
1. Discuss the selection of an advocate to speak on behalf of
the rezonings at each of the public hearings with Planning f
Commission Chairperson Peg Mountin and provide direction
regarding this item.
2. Review each of the individual rezonings which has been iden-
tified as being controversial, listing attached, and determine
whether or not you are inclined to support each of these
individual rezonings prior to public hearings being scheduled.
If you find that it is the general concensus that some of
these rezonings are questionable, staff would recommend that
a meeting be held with the Planning Commission to review the
rationale for those rezonings in question.
3. Based on the direction given and conclusions reached in reviewing
recommendations No. 1 and 2, by Consent Agenda at your meeting
on April 9, 1984 schedule public hearings for the controversial
rezonings pursuant to the listing provided earlier in this
memorandum.

MEMO TO: Mayor & City Counci
FROM: Clerk-Adminintrato
DATE: March 22, 1904
SUBJECT: Modificatioltn to Municipal Code Chapter 1001
Intoxicating l.iquorn
As a result of Council diructiun to submit proponod modificationn
to Municipal Code Chapter. 100 which regulnl.os the licnnning of
intoxicating liquor operations, staff hne porformed a survey
of eleven citias within the Motropolit:an area to dotermine what
regulations they had in their ordinances relating to the issuanco
of Sunday liquor sale licensor and the means that tlwy use to
enforce the statutory requirement that Sunday liquor galas he
made in conjunction with the sale of. food. Staff asked three
basic questions of each of the Cities surveyed and requested
copies of appropriate sections of their Code to dotermino
how these cities define a restaurant, whether or not they define
food and whether or not a separate Sunday liquor galas license
is required. Attached to this memorandum please find a summary
of the results of this survey including a listing of all the
provisions that were noted in some of the cities' codes which
relate to the issue of current concern,namely, the sale of liquor
on Sundays without the service of food.
Upon review of the results of this survey staff has identified
several options the City might wish to include in our Code and
considerations as they would apply to current Mounds view opera-
tions should any of these provisions be implemented. The options
identified are as follows:
1. Require a separate Sunday sales license with or
without special provisions as identified below:
a, As required by New Brighton, limit liquor
sales and service to people seated at tables.
As required by St. Louis Park,require that
establishments obtaining Sunday sales licenses
provide food service during stated hours,
have a required number of staff members on
duty during food service hours, and maintain
a menu consisting of a stated number of
entrees with a brief description of entree.
Considerations: a. To limit Sunday sales to table
service only would more than likely have a negative impact
on the, Mermaid an it would prohibit the sale and service
of liquor in the bowling alley and recreational areas.
-2-
on the other hand, this would prohibit the operation
of a "bar area" in the sense that people could not
be seated at the bar.
b. The use of the St. Louis Park provisions would
guarantee that "entrees" would be served and
adequate staff would be on duty.
c. In both of these options there is not a guarantee
that food will be purchased by the customer ordering
liquor. It would only guarantee that the patron
would be seated at tables and/or that adequate
staff is on duty and food is available for consumption
by the patrons.
2. Limit the issuance of on -sale licenses to restaurants,
hotels, and clubs as defined by state law.
Considerations: a. This would prohibit the sale
and service of liquor by "bar" operations. In the case
of Mounds View, Loose -Ends and Povlitzki's would be re-
quired to start functioning as restaurants and,pending
a legal interpretation,prohibit the service and sale
of liquor in the bowling alley and recreational areas
of the Mermaid. I
b. Allowing for on -sale licenses for commercial/recrea-
tional clubs,as is the case of Bloomington,could
ease the problems with the Mermaid, however, the
definition would need to be properly structured so as
to avoid any misuse of such a provision.
3. Include the definition of restaurant in the City's
liquor code and require seating in excess of
current statutory provisions.
Considerations: This provision would in no way address
the issues currently of concern to the City Council
but would simply guarantee that any on -sale operation
wishing to obtain a liquor license under the restaurant
definition would be of sufficiently large enough size
to allow us to avoid the possibility of issuing on -sale
liquor licenses to "hole in the wall" operations.
4. Require public hearings be held prior to the issuance
of new and renewal of existing on -sale liquor licenses.
Considerations: By having public hearings held prior to the
issuance and renewal of on -sale liquor licenses, the opportunity
would be afforded to members of the public to comment on the J
proposed or current operation.
-3-
5. As is the case in Brooklyn Park, include a provision in
the Code that would allow the City Council to restrict
the sale and consumption of liquor to tables where
food is served to patrons purchasing and consuming the
liquor and prohibit or limit the sale and consumption of
liquor at a bar.
Considerations: This would address the issue of Sunday
liquor sales and the service of food in its entirety
by requiring that liquor sales occur only when the
persons consuming the liquor also purchase food. The
only possible loop hole in the Brooklyn Park provisions
are that food is not defined and as has been discussed
on previous occassions provides for a wide margin of
interpretation.
As was the case with several other options
previously mentioned, such a requiremont would more than
likely prohibit the service and sale of liquor in the
bowling alley and recreational areas of the Mermaid and
would require that the Mermaid, Loose -Ends, and Povlitzki's
operate on a restaurant basis only if they wish to remain
open on Sundays.
6: The final option identified by staff would be to
require that liquor sales on Sunday and, if desired
during the remaining part of the week,represent
only a certain portion of the operationb revenues
with the remaining portion being derived from the
sales of food. If it is the desire of the Council
to make this provision applicable on all days of
the week, it would be recommended that liquor licenses
be limited to hotels, restaurants, and clubs only
as there is no way possible that a "bar" operation
could meet such requirements. The three options
available using the percentage of gross revenues
derived from food method would be to require that
food sales represent a minimum percentage of total
sales for all operations, require food sales represent
a certain percentage of gross sales based on the
amount of seating the operation has available, or
issue classes of licenses where different classes
are determined based upon the percentage of revenues
being derived from food sales.
Considerations: a. This would prohibit the sale and
service of liquor by "bar" operations. In the case of
Mounds View, Loose -Ends and Povlitzki's would be required
to start functioning as restaurants and probably prohibit
the sale and service of liquor in the bowling alley and
recreational areas of the Mermaid.
-4-
b. Enforcement of such a requirement could be a problem
unless the Code is properly structured whereby the
operator would be required to submit to the City
an annual statement prepared by a certified accountant
which shows the amount of revenues derived from the
different operations within the establishment.
As you can see all of the six options cited above would in one
way or another assist in addressing the concerns of the City
Council, however, some of them would also have negative impacts
upon liquor establishments within the City of Mounds View.
Therefore, staff would request that Council review this list
of options and provide staff with direction as to which of
these you wish us to include in any redrafted Chapter 100.
Both City Attorney Meyers and myself would be more than happy
to respond to any Council questions or concerns regarding this
matter prior, to your providing staff with direction.
While Chapter 100 is being redrafted as a result of Council
direction, staff would like to take the opportunity to present
one other issue to you which has been raised on several occasions
in the recent past and which could be added to Chapter 101,
Non -Intoxicating Liquor. That is we have received requests by
various organizations wishing to hold events and wanting to
obtain a one day beer license in order that they might sell
beer during their event. Our current Code does not provide
for the issuance of non -intoxicating licenses on other than an
annual basis. Therefore, any special events that might be
held by any City organization or outside organization where they
wish to obtain an non -intoxicating liquor license for less than
a one year basis is prohibited. Staff would appreciate Council
direction as to your desires to provide for special event licenses
in the non -intoxicating chapter of the Municipal Code.

RESOLUTION NO. 1727
CITY OF MOUNDS VIEW
COUNTY OF RMISEY
STATE OF MINNESOTA
RESOLUTION APPROVING POLICY STNITMENT ON THE
ISSUE OF COMPARABLE WOR'I'II
WHEREAS, the issue of comparable worth or comparable work value which
has been commonly defined as the value of work which is substantially equal
in the areas of skill, work effort, and responsibility has become a prominent
national issue in the arw of personnel administration; and
WHEREAS, the Minnesota Legislature will be considering during its 1984
Session legislation which will mandate the establishment of equitable compensa-
tion programs by all political subdivisions in the State; and
WHEREAS, it is the desire of the City of Mounds View to provide equit-
able compensation on the basis of comparable worth as evidenced by the wage
adjustments made during 1984.
NOW, TIIEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Mounds View adopts the following Policy Statement on the Issue of Comparable
Worth.
POLICY SlATEINI NT ON COMPARABLE WORTH
The City of Mounds View supports efforts by the State Legislature 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
possible internal compensation inequities without exceeding local budget
constraints. We further believe that 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.
Wage rates for various classifications should be based on job content
as well as an external relationship with the marketplace. That content
analysis must take into account internal equity comparisons, but also must
allow for some comparison with the external job market. Further, it is the
position of the City that such a comparable worth program cannot be success-
ful as long as our communities arc forced by law to set wage levels through
negotiatiouor binding arbitration with labor organizations operating within
the allowances of State labor relations laws.
The City of Mounds View recommends that legislative action be taken
in 1984 to promote wage equity through a determination of comparable worth
and that the following principles should guide this legislation.
RESOLUTION NO. 1727
1'llge Two
1. Comparable worth programs must balance internal pay equity
With external supply and demand Considerations.
2. Existing laws, which limit the power of local governmental
units to implement wage structures based on comparable worth,
including but not limited to collective bargaining •and
arbitration, must be modified accordingly.
3. 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. 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.
S. Legislation should allow a reasonable time to accomplish the
implementation of each program.
6. The State should allow cities to choose the methods of analysis
and implementation of pay equity programs.
7. Legislation should involve the adoption of a philosophy and
definition of specific goals for pay equity programs.
Adopted this 23rd day of April, 1984.

�&iU 16
FROM: Bruce K. Ande n ctor
Parks, Recrg 1 Forestry
DATE: March 29, 1984
RE: Silver View Park Maintenance Agreement
As you are aware, staff initiated a program in 1983 whereby we
contracted the maintenance for Silver View Park to a private
firm. The bid was awarded to M & A Property Services for a low
bid price of $7,245.00 per year. M & A Property Services did an
excellent job in maintaining Silver View Park and we were pleased
with the freedom that it allowed our existing park maintenance
staff.
With the recent changes in the public works department, staff
would like to discuss the feasibility of attempting to maintain
Silver View Park "in house" for the 1984 summer season. My
rationale for proposing such a recommendation is based on three
items:
1. With the transfer of park maintenance directly under my
supervision, I feel that we will be able to be more effi-
cient, accountable and responsive to park maintenance tasks.
In the past, park maintenance personnel were often assigned
to other projects and were not able to dedicate all their ef-
forts and energies towards the maintenance of our City's park
system.
2. We have two additional full-time men through the state MEED
grant program who are both capable of providing a high qual-
ity of maintenance. Both of these individuals are on a six
month grant program and will be with us through the majority
of the summer season. In addition to the two MEED people, we
are fortunate to have Don Matanowski and Nick Barbato return
to the City's park division in 1984 with three prior years of
experience in our system. The expertise that Don and Nick
will bring to our department in their fourth year will great-
ly enhance our efficiency as well as our ability to get the
job done. Additional manpower will be received through the
JPTA program and we have been tentatively approved for eight
additional young men to work through that program.
3. With the purchase of the new John Deere tractor, we have an
additional 72" mower which combined with the two Grounds -
master 72s affords us the opportunity to cut at 18' swath at
one time.
-z-
In addition to the three atorementiomad reasons, staff also has
been meeting•at great lengths with the two park maintenance men
assigned to our division, Larry Decheino and Chris Weston, about
maximizing our manpowor through the summer season. At this time,
both Chris and Larry are amonahle to a flexible schedule which
would allow a seven day scheduling an well as twelve to fourteen
hour work schedule. This will be accomplished by rescheduling
half of our crew to a Wednesday - Sunday shift with the remaining
of our staff working on a Monday - Friday shift. By going to a
seven day schedule, we will he able to maintain and mow grass on
a regular basis rather than heing limited to our standard 40 hour
week in the past. In addition, it is staff's proposal to run
swing shifts with one crew starting at 6:30 a.m. and the second
shift coming in at 10:30 a.m. By making these types of manage-
ment changes, we are able to have our equipment utilized to a
maximum as well as our limited manpower.
Staff would further recommend that we be given the opportunity to
maintain Silver View Park on a regular basis with a portion of
the monies that were allocated for contract maintenance to be re- '
tained for small park projects such as: ag lime for infields,
sand in the tot lots and new park sign construction. Staff feels
very confident with the additional manpower, equipment and shift
schedule changes, that we will be able to maintain Silver View
Park at the same level it was maintained in 1983. In addition,
we feel it will give us the opportunity to compare manpower time
and costs in more depth to that of retaining a private mainten-
ance firm.
Staff will be on hand at Monday evening's meeting to discuss this
issue in further depth. Should you have any questions prior to
that time, feel free to contact myself directly at ext. #41.

Representative Daniel Knuth gave a brief presentation 7. Discussion of
of the status of the airport issue, and discussed Anoka County -
the possible reinstatement of local government aids, 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 aids, with hearings to be held
sometime during the legislative session. He urged
the Council to become involved in the process, and
aided 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. lie 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.
presentative Knuth replied that was just one of
e many problems, and there is a committee discussing
it, along with other issues, such as seasonal employ-
ment.
Mayor 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

Mayor McCarty stated his reasons for the lawsuit
as being:
1. We intend to pursue the legal question as to
the control the Metropolitan Development Guide
has over the types of facilities'— that can be
installed in various classes of airports.
2. We question whether there is a basic need for the
upgrading of the Anoka County Airport.
3. We intend to determine and pursue whether there
are environmental questions to resolve.
4. We intend to determine whether the City, by
virtue of property ownership, and/or residents
will sustain compensable damages as a result
of the airport upgrading.
Mayor McCarty asked Attorney Meyers for his
recommendation regarding petitioning the Court
for a 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 have Attorney Meyers coordinate the legal
involvement of the consultant employed by the City.

incil right now that is studying the need for an

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
consultant's 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
uncil had taken earlier was to authorize Staff to
out and obtain bids, then have the Council
uetermine a course of action. She cautioned against
spending the taxpayers money so quickly without first
thinking things through.
Councilmember Linke asked if it was necessary to have
a preliminary study in hand before going into court.
Attorney 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.
He 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
*he legislative session that could trigger a very acti%e
ponse from the Minneapolis delegation, as the
sponse 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.

Dennis Patrini, 8434 Sunnyside Road, stated he feels
Mounds View is going to get an intermediate airport,
no matter what is done, and he feels the City's own
Legislators are the biggest threat, as they are not
willing to proceed.
Councilmember Hankner asked Mr. Patrini if he would
be willing to lobby if the question is brought up
again in the Legislature. Mr. Patrini replied maybe.
LeeAnn Sporre, a resident of Fridley, stated she is
a member of a task force committee that has dealt
with this issue since day one. She advised that the
issue will be discussed on March 26, at 11 AM, at the
MPCA meeting, and recommended the City go ahead with
the battle now.
Mayor McCarty stated that it has been frustrating to
have requested explanations from MAC, for example the
reason for an ILS where 85% of the pilots were not
rated for such systems, and not receive complete
answers. This is one of the many reasons for my
motion to implement the lawsuit.
ancilmember Hankner pointed out the motion does tie
the City into expense, and she does not feel this is
strategically the best time to proceed with the lawsuit,
and they should instead gather information, and as
elected officials, take the best course of action for
the City.
Councilmember Doty questioned whether, if the Council
passes the motion now, it would be premature and if
the City would be damaging its position in court.
Attorney Meyers replied he is concerned with obtaining
the best expert advice possible, that will answer the
questions in all areas, and they must be able to name all
the issues involved, and have appropriate supporting
evidence. He added he needs the tools to do the job,
and the Council must decide the political consequences
of proceeding. Meyers indicated that he would file
the lawsuit only after obtaining sufficient data and evidence.
Councilmember Blanchard stated she had no statement to
make on the issue.

Councilmember Linke pointed out that earlier in the
year the Council authorized Attorney Meyers to go ahead
at any time he feels the lawsuit should be implemented,
and that Attorney Meyers has stated he would like to
have the consultant study in hand and preliminary work, done
before returning to court. He stated he has not had
an opportunity to review the consultant proposal.
Councilmember Hankner stated she also was not given
anything to review rror,� the consultant who has expressed
interest in working for the City. She also pointed out
that according to the agenda, the topic for this
evening was a discussion of the Anoka County -Blaine
Airport improvements, not whether to proceed with legal
action.
Councilmember Blanchard stated that since she did not
make a statement during the lengthy debate, she would
like to preface her vote by saying that because this
motion only reaffirms what the Council did previously,
she would vote yes.

Clerk/Administrator Pauley proposed the Council adopt a
resolution, which would read "Whereas over the last
several weeks announcements have been made by major
corporations in Minnesota that they would be moving
facilities or expanding facilities to states other than
Minnesota due to the adverse corporate and property tax
situation that is presently experienced within the State
of Minnesota, and Whereas the Minnesota Legislature during
its 1984 session has, and will be, considering several
pieces of legislation which would provide for corporate
and property tax relief or other incentives, and Whereas
it is the desire of the City of Mounds to represent
the best interests of the citizens of its community and
State of Minnesota by encouraging the retention of major
corporations and sundry jobs. Now, therefore, be it resolved
by the City Council of the City of Mounds View that it
supports appropriate compromise legislation by adoption
by the 1984 Legislative Session that would result in the
provision of corporate and property tax relief to
corporations in the State of Minnesota that would retain
or expand facilities, thus causing the retention of jobs."
