Mayor Clerk -Administrator MEMO TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: CLERK -ADMINISTRATOR DATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 1984 SUBJECT: JOHN JOHNSON BILLING FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES Pursuant to Council direction at the September 4 Agenda Session I have discussed with Mr. Johnson his request for payment for professional services in excess of that provided for in his contract with the City as outlined in his letter dated August 29, 1984. Attached is a copy of an amended billing statement from Mr. Johnson which was mutually developed during discussions and totals $2,490.

As you may recall, Graham's Contracting Company has tuck pointed the two million gallon water reservior. The original contract is in the amount of $15,200.00. This amount included replacement of 100 missing or defective bricks at at $6.00 per brick. The actual number of missing and defective bricks replaced is 250. Therefore, Graham's Contractin,Lg Company is eligible for an increase in contract price 00per ofrtheXcity'sbricks bricksminus and 100 bricks)]. The contractor used10 gave us a credit of $23,00. I hired Graham's Contracting Company to repair the concrete motor mount slab for the natural gas engine in Well House No. 2. This r^ $200.00 item is an integral part of repairing the Well No. 2 ... engine. Therefore, when we pay the contractor I will charge the correct account for this item. In summary, Graham's Contracting Company is eligible for an increase in the contract in the amount of $1,077.00, ($200.00 - $23.00 + $900.00). RECOMMENDATION: I recommend approving Change Order No. 1 for Graham acting Company in the amount of $1,077.00. This will increase the contract price to $16,277.00.

IV, NO. 16 TELEPHONE SYSTEM PROPOSALS Pursuant to your direction Staff mailed out a Request for Proposal to a number of companies in the Twin City Metropolitan Area which handle telephone systems. In response to that mailing we received nine proposals for telephone systems ranging in price from $275 to $508 per month for a lease/purchase arrangement. After reviewing these proposals Staff has identified four firms whose proposals meet the requirements of the specifications and are within the guidelines of the 1985 budget. At the present time we are meeting with these firms to receive demonstrations of the systems to confirm their applicability to our operation and once a system is identified a recommendation will be submitted to you for your consideration. BUSINESS TAX CLEARANCE As part of the 1984 Tax Amnesty Bill the State Legislature has given the Minnesota Commissioner of Revenue the authority to stop the issuar.ie or renewal of any business license issued by the state, county, or municipality for businesses that have state sales or withholding tax liability in excess of $1000. At the present time the method in which this requirement will be enforced is unknown, however, this provision does go into effect on November 1 of this year and depending upon the way it is implemented could impact upon the City's scheduling for the renewal of licenses. At worst Staff would invision that it would require that we notify businesses of their need to renew licenses earlier than is current practiced in order to advise the Commissioner of Revenue of the names of businesses we are licensing in advance of the issuance or renewal of the license. Further information will be provided to you as it becomes available to us from the Department of Revenue. 1985 FESTIVAL IN THE PARK I have been advised by the Chairperson of the Festivities Commission that the 1985 Festival In The Park has been scheduled for the weekend of July 13-14 in 1985. STATE PLANNING AGENCY WORKING COMMITTEE As I indicated in an earlier Administrative Newsletter I have been asked to serve on a working committee established by the State Planning Agency to assist in the implementation provisions of Senate File 1978 adopted by the 1984 Legislature requiring that the State Planning Agency with the cooperation of the Metropolitan Airports Commission Metropolitan Council develop definitions for the terms Metropolitan Significance and Significant Effect on Orderly and Economic Development of the Metropolitan Area as they relate to the laws governing the operation of the Metropolitan Airports Commission. ADMINISTRATIVE, NEWSLETTER SEPTEMBER 10, ]OOA PAGE TWO STATE PLANNING AGENCY WORKING COMMITTEE (continued) The first meeting of this working committee was held on the afternoon of August 29 with representatives of various state agencies and the cities of Bloomington, Minneapolis, Eagan and Mounds View present. To say the least this first meeting was not an extremely constructive one in that the differences between the Metropolitan Airports Commission and Metropolitan Council as well as those between the cities surrounding the International Airport and secondary airports became the main topic of discussion. I emphasized at this meeting that the participation of the City of Mounds View in the activities of the working committee should in no way be interpretted as an approval of the committee's end result and that the City of Mounds View reserved a right to oppose the end result should we find it detrimental to our community. Further meetings of this working committee have not been scheduled, however, I will be meeting with representatives of the Metropolitan Council and City of Eagan to determine whether or not the goals of the City of Mounds View can be somehow interjected into this -� process.

City C ark &n MEMO TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: CLERK-ADMINISTRATO DATE: AUGUST 31, 1984 SUBJECT: NORTH SUBURBAN CABLE COMMISSION REQUEST FOR CONTRIBUTION Attached please find a letter from Roger Franke, Cable Administra- tor for the North Suburban Cable Commission dated August 24, 1984 communicating to the City of Mounds View the Commission's 1985 Operating Budget and indicating that the City's contribution to the Commission's 1935 operations would be in the amount of $14,406.63. Mr. Franke further indicates in his memorandum that this contri- bution would be unnecessary if all of the member cities of the commission approve the proposed amendment to the Cable Franchise Agreement which stipulates that Group W provide the commission r with $150,000 to fund their operation until the system is operational. Should the contribution be necessary, Group W will reimburse the member cities as an advance on the franchise fees as we previously did in 1984 in an amount of $10,000. In discussing this matter with Mr. Franke he has estimated that the City could expect to receive an annual franchise fee in the amount of $21,600 assuming a 40 percent penetration rate of all households in the city. Taking that into consideration with the $10,000 contribution already made which is an advance on our franchise fees, the need for the North Suburban Cable Commission to finance their annual operation, and the possibility that the $14,000 contribution for 1985 would be necessary, the City of Mounds View would not be receiving any franchise fees for the first full four years of operation. The only impact that this fact would have upon the City of Mounds View would be if we had planned on using some of the franchise fees monies to fund the City's cable TV activities. At this point those activities are at a minimal level and it is difficult, if not impossible, to anticipate what they might be as the system becomes operational and the local access programming activities take hold. On the other hand, should the City not pay these contributions we would no longer be a member of the North Suburban Cable Commission and on our own with respect to overseeing the operation of the Cable System in the City of Mounds View which I feel would be detrimental to us in that the oversight of the system in operation of a local access programming function would require MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL PAGE TWO additional staffing which could severely dplete any f onalrburdens one revenues we might receive as well as place current City Staff - RECOMMENDATION. af— w—ommend Council approval of the 1985 North Suburban Cable Commission Operating Budget and authorize payment of the $14,406.63 contribution. Should the franchise agreement amendment not be approved by all member cities. 1-1 1 0 1 F•i t�t1, rf �ka ; CC 1011 Writ 1er0rnlrm A,>(71i JT{�wn•p .,lahun Ilnthh, MN Jillu.

Residents Re- read a prepared statement regarding the quests and airport issue, stating that he feels Comments from nothing is being done by the Council to the Floor stop the expansion of the airport. He also presented a resolution to the Council, asking that they adopt it this evening, with his proposed strategy for handling the issue. Councilmember Links stated it was his opinion that Mr. Merritt's contract with the City is still in force, and that when meetings on the environmental question come up, he will represent the City. Councilmember Hankner stated she felt that the City cannot proceed with a lawsuit unless there is a basis to sue, and at this time there is no ILS in place, which makes it difficult to sue. She added that she felt very little can be done until an environmental impact statement is in hand. She also explained that the Master Plan had been adopted last fall, and nothing has been done to date, with no plans for construction until 1985. Mounds -View -City -Coungii- ;-------- --, _.-- age Two ,-1984 Regular Meeting '�'� � �: � � age Two -- ..- Councilmember Hankner gave her personal version of the history of the airport situation, explaining to those present the action the City has taken to date, and the procedure they are following for the future. She again stressed her personal opinion that the importance of waiting to proceed with the lawsuit until there is a basis for it. Mr. Pietrini stated he had heard there was irre- gularities with the way the master plan is being done, and he fears the airport will become like the St. Paul airport. Councilmember Hankner again explained that in her opinion there is no concrete evidence to take to Court at this time on the master plan. She also reviewed her recollection of the situation with Mr. Merritt's billing, with the Council having to call him in twice to go over his billing, and with him not being able to account for an itemiza- tion of the billing. She stressed that she felt he is still employed by the City. Councilmember Links gave examples of the areas the Council had questions on for Mr. Merritt's billing. Attorney Meyers stated he has no trouble working with Mr. Merritt. He also reviewed the responsi- bilities of the FAA, including safety. Mr. Pietrini stated he still feels the best way to stop the airport is on the environmental issue. He also pointed out that while MAC is doing an EIS, they are in the business of airports, and he feels Mr. Merritt has the power to take them on. Councilmember Hankner pointed out that MAC is watched over by the Environmental Quality Board. She also reviewed the budget situation and advised that she felt if the Council were to act on Mr. Pietrini's resolution, authorizing a $200,000 expenditure for Mr. Merritt's services taxes would have to go up, as there just is not that amount of extra money in the budget. Mr. Pietrini stated he is not concerned with the money involved, but rather with the value of homes. Councilmember Hankner responded that there are residents who feel differently and do no wish to have their tares raised. She added she felt they did not have advance notice of the discussion, or they would have been present also to voice their opinions. Mounds View City Council-` y August 27, 1904 Regular Meeting Page -Three r--------------------------------------------- -------- Councilmember Doty stated the contingency fund has approximately $180,000 in it, with $600,000 available in a fund established by the Council through defeasance, which would require a 4/5 vote to move that money. He stated he believes there are sufficient funds without having to raise anyone's taxes at all to have sufficient legal support to stop the airport. He added he feels the City is spinning its wheels, and they must take some action and do something now to stop the airport. Mayor McCarty stated he felt they must look at it from the perspective of what they have to work with, and he reviewed sections of the metropolitan airport guide. Ile added he believes they must get into Court in a timely fashion and test the 1980 law, and resolve that question first. Councilmember Hankner stated she does not feel they should test the 1980 law yet, as they have already spent $10,000 on two studies, from Trans Plan, Inc. and Coffman Associates, and she read from their reports where they stated they do not believe the City could win on the ILS lawsuit now. She added that Attorney Meyers is preparing a brief right now that addresses the 1980 law. Councilmember Blanchard pointed out that in her opinion the issue is a very political one, and any debate should be organized by the League of Women Voters, or some other similar organization. She also pointed out that she felt the lawsuit will be very expensive, and if all the money that was defeased is used for the airport, the tax- payers will be hit with a tax increase as the City must go on, and there are other areas that are going to require money. She added that she feels Mr. Pietrini's resolu- tion is premature. Mayor McCarty stated he feels Mr. Merritt is out the door, as far as the Council is concerned. He added he does not feel taxes would be increased, as there is sufficient money available. He added that the issue is a very political one. Mounds View City Council 4ugust 27, 1984 Regular Meeting age Four -------------------------------------- =--.-------------- Councilmember Hankner stated she does have some concern about Mr. Merritt's credentials, as some concerns have been voiced by profes- sionals regarding his credibility. She again stressed she felt they cannot proceed until the EIS is in hand. Leann Sporie, 295 Ironton Street, Fridley, stated she feels MAC would drop the plan tomorrow if the City could convince them. She recommended solving the money problems by going to neighboring communities and enlisting their aid. She added they need people who are not running for public office to handle it. Councilmember Linke replied he had called the City of Fridley and asked for their support and was told by the City Manager that they were not going to support Mounds view, with one of the reasons being they did not want to rile their businesses,. Councilmember Hankner stated she had contacted several surroundings cities and sought their signatures, but was not able to get everyone to sign. Is Bob Beutel recommended tabling the discussion further and scheduling it for an agenda session and notifying the public. It was the consensus of the Council to discuss further at the next agenda session. Mr. Pietrini stated that was not acceptable to him, and made accusations against the Council of making promises to hold meetings and then not doing so. Motion/Second: Doty/McCarty to table action on the resolution until the next agenda session and have more discussion and bring in both the pro and the con on the issue and move forward in the vane that there be a debate on this, and let the public have clear knowledge of what the Council is doing. 4 ayes 1 nay Motion Carried Councilmember Hankner voted against the motion, stating that she feels very comfortable with the advise Attorney Meyers has given the Council, to wait, and she respects his opinion, and they should proceed with his recommendation. Mounds View City Council Lid 6. y �� ly L-j August 27, 1984 Regular Meeting Page Five ------------------------------------ ---------------- Mayor McCarty suggested the Councilmembers Put their thoughts together on paper regarding the airport issue, so they can be looked at in detail. William Fritz, 8072 Long Lake Road, stated he was against Item C of the consant agenda, as he feels the City has too many stop signs already. Mayor McCarty recommended asking the County if stop signs would accomplish what they think they would, and he made a suggested change to the proposed resolution. Mayor McCarty closed the regular meeting and 6. Public opened the public hearing at 9:05 PM. Hearing - Clerk -Administrator Pauley re orted the Cable TV Franchise the problems with the language of the Amdt. No. resolution should be resolved soon. 1 Attorney Meyers clarified the situation. Roger Franke stated they have not run into this problem before with other cities, and that 6 out of 10 cities have responded in the affirmative to this amendment. There was discussion among the Council as to whether the Charter would require a public hearing on a rate increase. Mayor McCarty stated they should amend the proposed amendment to the franchise, rather than amend the Charter to fit the contract. Councilmember Blanchard asked for an explanation of the problems Group W has been experiencing, and why they have not been able to live up to their promises. Mr. Schuster explained the cable tv industry as a whole is having.a problem, as cable tv franchises overbid. He added the problem is due to economics. Mrs. Fritz stated they had had a problem with the way the workman handled themselves while they were on their property.
