I would anticipate that we will shortly after the approval of this Certificate of Occupancy be receiving a request from the buy -down of the land or, which this building has been constructed. The buy -down for Building G will be in the amount of $1,223,891,000. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Occupancy Certificate for Building G contingent upon completion of the finishing work as identified by the Building Official.

The work remaining to be done is minor in nature (i.e., thresholds at main entrance, interior window sills, and floor covering)• At this time, Everest wants a Certificate of Occupancy for the building "shell". They have a Certificate of Occupancy for the warehouse occupied by TransHealth and the south one -•half of the first floor office area. That part of the building would remain vacant until a tenant is found. At that time, tenant improvement permits would be iseued. s . I recommend approval of a Certificate of Occupancy with contingencies regarding the uncompleted work. ITT/BAC TO: Mayor & Council 4 FROM: Finance Director -Treasurer Brager 7 DATE: March 1, 1989 RE: VEHICLE & EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND The Adopted 1989 Budget established a vehicle and equipment replacement program. As you may recall all vehicles and equipment were inventoried and their expected useful lives determined. Then the amount necessary to set aside each year in order to have funds on hand to replace each vehicle or piece of equipment after its useful life expired was calculated. First year amounts were included in the 1989 Budget. Establishment of a vehicle and equipment replacement fund was envisioned during the 1989 Budget process. Monies budgeted anr-ially tor vehicles would be revenues of the fund and expenditures would be replacement of vehicles and equipment. A proposed resolution is attached for your consideration. In 1988 Council authorized purchase of snow plowing equipment that is budgeted for 1989. Staff did not request that this equipment be paid for from the Vehicle & Equipment Replacement Fund. As a consequence, 1988 General Fund Capital Ex a m �rngaiy over budget. Staff requests a Council motion authorizing these items be paid from the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund. RECOMMENDATION: 1) Consider adopting Resolution No. 2460, A Resolution Establishing a Vehicle & Equip- ment Replacement Fund. DB/ds Attachment R 2) Consider adopting a motion that the 1989 Ford LSOO dump truck with plow and the 1988 Caterpiller 936E front end loader, whose purchase was previously authorized, be paid from the Vehicla & Equipment Replacement Fund.

I have a great deal of information about the workers compensation area *and I wantedwto provide this sdto you 3 ---- -- ...._ and suggest some uLLOILyoo ---- - First of all, all City Councilmombers and staff should be aware that workers compensation covers all employees who are aLting in the course and scope of their employment. This means that elected officials are not only covered when they sit as Councilmembers at a meeting, but may also be covered when they are driving in their car to give a presentation on behalf of the City, when they are attending a luncheon or meeting relative to Citybusness, and at any other time which they are out in the q public hering the business of the City of Mounds View. The term "course and scope of employment" has a very broad and liberal meaning under the workers compensation act. In legal terms it means that whenever an employee (or iu this case, an eleCLA official) is working at some activity which furthers the interest: of the City of Mounds View, that person is considered in the "course and scope of employment" for workers compersation purposes. This would allow workers compensation for an elected official at almost any time of the day or night engaged in almost any tpe of social activity which has some connection to their position Councilmember for the City Of Mounds View. Secondlworkers ycompens compensation benefits currently are 2/3should of the gross weekly income of any injured employee up to a maximum of $392 per week. The workers compensation rate is determined by taking all lost gross income and dividing it by 2/3 subject to that maximum. Thfs means that if a City official is injured in the course and scope of employment for the City of Mounds View and also has a full-time job which they cannot perform as a result of that injury, the gross income from both jobs are added together to determine the employee's gross weekly wage. The workers compensation benefits are then figured as 2/3 of the total gross income that the employee is losing from both types of employment even though the City of Mounds View contributes a small part of that gross income. The result is that City Councilmembers and elected officials who have regular full-time jobs which pay a substantial income, if hurt while working for the City of Mounds View would quality for, the maximum (or close to the maximum) workers compensation rate, whereas those officials who do not have full-time jobs would qualify at most for the minimum weekly wage currently paid under Minnesota law. The third consideration involves the minimum weekly wage for the City of Minnesota. Currently, if an employee corks full-time and is injured and earns less than $280 per week, they automatically get $188 per week tax-free as a workers compensation benefit. All full-time employees are presumed to get at least the minimum of $188 per week, even if 2/3 of their gross wages falls below that figure. on the other hand part-time employees are not entitled to the statewide weekly minimum. Their workers compensation rate can fall below the $188 per week and equals 2/3 of their total gross weekly income from their part-time job. A situation could arise .in crhich a determination would have to be made whether a Councilmember or elected official is a full-time or a part-time employea. If they are considered part-time and have no regular full-time employment, their gross earnings from a workers compensation injury would be extremely small. on the other hand, if they are considered a full-time employee as a Councilmember and have no other employment, they would at least be entitled to $188 per week under the current workers compensation guidelines. 'lastly, I believe the City should define which elected officials will be provide workers compensation coverage. For example, if it is only going to be the Mayor and Councilmembers, you should state specifically that the Mayor and Councilmembers in our ordinance are covered by workers compensation. If it is to include other officials who may be appointed at a later date by the City Council or the City staff to act on behalf of the City, we should enumerate them in the ordinance. Furthermore, I agree that we should define what official duties are of any covered officials. What I would suggest is that the ordinance you draft be expanded to include a definition of those covered, and a definition of INN official duties. For those covered, I would recommend listing the Mayor and City Councilmembers, whether appointed or elected, and any other officials which you feel should be covered by specific designation. In addition, I would define official duties as any duty which furthers the interest or business of the City of Mounds View and is an activity that could not be performed by anyone else other than the elected official on behalf of the City of Hounds View. The activity must first of: all be in the best interest of Mounds View. Going to Perkins to meet another Councllmember from another City for personal conversation would not necessarily service the best interest of the City of Mounds View, but even if the official injured claimed that it did, they would still have to show that the meeting took place only because of their position as a Councilmember or official of the City of Mounds View. The distinction between duties which are performed by elected officials and those which cannot be performed by the general public in Mounds View is a crucial distinction which should be worded into our ordinance. Please let me know if you will redraft this or if I should do it. Yours truly, Mark A. Barney MAR/sf MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL FROM: CLERK -ADMINISTRATOR PAUL DATE: FEBRUARY 27, 1939 SUBJECT: EXEMPT EMPLOYEE WORK HOURS Prior to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) being applied to local government, the City had allowed salaried employees to earn comp time and take the time off as authorized by their Department Head. Salaried employees include the Clerk -Administrator, Department Hcads, and all professional and supervisory staff. When FLSA went into effect, the City initially interpreted this as preventing our exempt (sa1aried) employees from earning comp time. As a result, our Personnel Code under 6.31, Sub.S, b. prohibits compensatory time from being given to exempt employees. Information from the City's fiscal consultants and other sources reveals that this interpretation is incorrect and that the City can, if it so chooses, allow exempt employees time off for hours worked in excess of the 60 hours required during a payroll period. In fact, the City's Personnel Code under 6.37, Sub.6, (1) provides that a Department Head, with the approval of the Clerk -Administrator, may allow an employee to r",iate from the standard 8 hour work day as workloads demand. In the past it has been my practice to allow Prwmnt Pmntmyees to daviatp from the standard 8 hour day in recognition of night meetings and ether job requirements that cause them to work evenings and weekends. A problem has arisen in that some employees feel that time sheets should reflect an 8 hour day and 40 hour week and no clear policy exists that allows deviation from that. I would nropose an Admiristrativ_ Policy or a policy by resolution of the City Council that provides that, in recognition of the fact that exempt employees are frequently required to work cutside of the standard work day, Department Ho.d= and the Clerk -Administrator are allowed to authorize work days of less than 8 hours for exempt employees as long as that employee records at least 80 hours during the pay period using a combinat,on of regular hours, vacation and sick leave. The choice to allow an employee to come in late in the morning because of a late evening meeting the night before or to leave early one day would be the decision of the employee's supervisor. I don't feel any clear cut guidelines could be written to guide the supervisory in this matter except that the privelege should not be abused and the employee must be able to get their job done before any consideration should be given to time off. Ultimately, the employee must be able to get their job done and take whatever time is necessary to do it in an acceptable fashion. E';sentially, I am requesting direction on two items. The first is whether or not you agree with the idea of letting exempt employees have felxibility in their working hours. The second is the form the policy should take, i.e. an Administrative Policy or a policy by resolution of the City Council. MEMO TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: CLERK-ADMINISTRATO DATE: FEBRUARY 27, 1989 SUBJECT: CHARITABLE GAMBLING ACTIVITIES City Attorney Mark Karney recently discussed with me a request from the Bel -Rae Ballroom for approval to have a casino night sponsored by Hewlett Packard at their facility. Mr. Karney advised the Bel -Rae and the ultimate operator of this casino activity, Casino Le Touquet, that the activity was not specifically prohibited by the City's Code and, therefore, w.uld be allowed. Mr. Harney indicated to me that it was his desire that the City amend it. intoxicating and non -intoxicating liquor codes to clearly state that such activities are allowed only wher the guests are not providing monetary compensation for the right to participate in these activities, thus avoiding any conflict With state gambling laws.

ATTEST: Mayor (SEAL) Clerk -Administrator APPROVED AS TO FORM: City Attorney MEMO TO: City Council FROM: City Planner Herman DATE: February 22, 1985 SUBJECT: TAX FORFEITED LANDS Attached is'a staff report on the proposed acquisition of the tax forfeited parcels in Mounds View. This report combines inrut from Clerk -Administrator Pauley; Parks, Recreation and Forestry Director Saarion; Public Works Director/City Engineer Minetor; Finance Director Brager; and myself. Each participant was asked to comment upon their particular area of expertise and upon the draft document as a whole. In general, it was my feeling that the Staff should present t+e feasibility of the proposed use for the parcel. IZ this use did not seem feasible other options were explored. It did not seem to be appropriate to encourage purchase except in the case of Parcel C for the stated reasons. Acquisition and use of these parcels is a policy decision by the Council which must be weighed against the loss of funds used for acquisition. KJH/BAC C 4. MEMO TO: Clerk -Administrator and City Council FROM: City Planner Merman DATE: February 15, 1989 SUBJECT: TAX FORFEITED LANDS In the recent past, various Councilmembers have expressed interest in acquiring tax forfeited lards located within the City. Various uses have been proposed for each of the parcels. The feasibility of these usas versus the cost of acquisition will be discussed in the following: Parcel A Parcel A is a triangular shaped wetland measuring 1.63 acres. The County has appraised the property at $1,400.00, although the intended use by the City is to have it remain vacant. At the present time this property is rendereG unbuildable by the City's wetland ordinance as the entire parcel is contained within the wetland or its buffer. It is because of the wetlands designation that the City may wish to purchase the property. In th= future, wetland parcels, especially those in private hands, �..✓ may need to be acquired under threat of the taking issue. Until the City's ordinance is overturned in court or a legal opinion is rendered on the issue of taking, it has been assumed that the City would not be purchasing wetlands. he City may be setting a precedent by obtaining this wetland. Potential costs to the City over and above acquisition costs may be the maintenance of the wetland area. It is reasonable to assumL. that nearby residents will expect City maintenance of the wetland occur upon discovering new ownership. Maintenance would be hampered by lack of funding for clean-up and no public access to the site. Potential benefits may include enhancement of the wetland which may produce better storage capacity and aesthetic and natural improvements. Funding for acquisition costs may be obtained from the General Fund or more appropriately, the Storm Water Management Fund. LIM 0 )I u) I yx A)) A ^ 25 V a ts� +,Gt1 J (3A U U 0.

The County has appraised this parcel at $23,500.00; each lot being appraised at approximately $7,800.Oo. Presently, the lots seem to be of little value except to the adjacent property owners who could extend their back lots. There is the potential to develop these lots at a future date if a road were extended mid -block. -This issue will be briefly discussed later. The proposed use for these lots is a nursery area. The City Forester has reviewed this proposal and has made the following cast calculations: Tree purchase (S00 evergreens) Maintenance (labor - planting, water, $ 120.00 mulching, etc.) 640 hours at $7.50/hour (average) 4 800.00 Materials (chemicals, fertilizers, signs) 400.00 Harvest and transplanting 280 hours at $7.50/hour x 2 4,200.00 TOTAL $ 9,520.00 AVERAGE $32.70/Tree This figure dces not take into account the cost of acquisition nor the salary of an additional staff member to run the n,irsery, It that cae nurser would trees approximate) eight y Produce 300 transplantable Y 9 years later. Potential costs to the City may be the conflicts which could arise between the City and adjacent neighbors. It seems that these residents have been using portions of this open space as their own lawns. Another monetary cost, and perhaps political, may be the placement of an access road into the interior lots. In conclusion, it was felt by the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department that without monetary support for all facets of the nursery implementation: supplies, land and laeor costs, it would not be feasible for the Department to carry out this proposal. An alternative use for a portion of the property was suggested by City Engineer Minetor. It was suggested that an additional road easement be obtained from Lots 8 and 9. While this acquisition would produce a curved road accessing the interior of the block, it would reduce the need to purcnase right-of-way from the eastern edge of 7853 Long Lake Road. There are two possible funding sources for purchase of these parcels depending upon the use of the property. If the lots were used as a nursery the funds could come out of the Park Improvement Fund. If the City obtained a portion of this property for road right-of-way the Silver Lake Woods Project Fund could be used. ,nrr j P. •'c.

The County has appraised the property at $400.00. This parcel would provide for a future roadway to the mid -block. It would be possible to put in a road along the block bounded by Hill- Road, Long Lake Road, Woodlawn Drive and Sherwood Road, as the lots on the block are large enough to subdivide. It would seem that the coat of acquisition is minimal and may benefit the City in the long run to purchase this property. This property could be purchased using funds from the Silver Lake Woods Project as it is an eligible expense and there is monies available. C Ct) I (La) IrL (4� 2 C zi 7 5 Ig too 'l (4s) .

City Engineer Minetor has briefly reviewed this issue and feels that a cul-de-sac could be introduced into the block at this point. Future extension may be pos3ible to -access the back portions of the deep lots on County Road H-2 and Woodale Drive. The Council may wish to discuss what policy direction they would feel comfortable initiating. Several options are available to the City: 1) The City could obtain these lots and devise a plan for future development. Further development could be City initiated or privately directed. 2) The City could obtain the parcels and find a developer who would purchase the lots and put together the project. 3) The City could do nothing allowing the County to keep the parcels. It would seem that there is a question of planning ahead for the A) City's future and what direction that future may take. Tee The Council may wish to look into the feasibility of this road extension. It may be prudent to have Staff review the economic feasibility of this project while the Council read the political feasibility. Funding for the acquisition of these parcels, appraised at $11,800.00 could COMP from the Silver Lake Woods Project Fund.

Public Hearing: the second public hearing at 7:12 PM. Ordinance No. 454 Entitled City Planner Herman explained the intent of the pro.. "Zoning" posed ordinance is to allow motorcycle sales and accessory stores in a B-2 zone. She added there would be conditional uses attached and reviewed what they were. She explained the request had come before the City as a result of Kraus Anderson having a potential tenant for the Silver View Plaza. The Planning Commission has reviewed the ordinance and recommended the conditions noted be included. Mounds View City Council Reoular Meeting Bob Carpenter, 2650 Lake Court Drive, stated 27-30 people from the area were present who were not in favor of this, with their main concerns being noise and traffic. He stated he was opposed to havino something likc this open u,. Dave Lockna, no address given, stated he was president Of the homeowners association of Silv<_r Ldke Woods, and they all strongly agree they do not want such a facility in their neighborhood. Charlie Grovel, property manager of Silver View Pleza, explained this request was brought to the City as the result of having a potential tenant who ended up going elsewhere because this use was not allowed in a B-2 zone. He added the conditions are their idea, and the limitations would allow the type of business they want to see in a B-2 zone, which would be retail and the selling of accessories and clothing. He added they do not currently have an applicant trying to get into the center, but are planning for the future. He added Kraus Anderson does not want a tenant who would not be good for the center, and they want a clean operation. George Vahn, 2648 Lake Court Drive, stated history is �- repeating itself, in that an operation similar to this was brouatlh i�t^ an—ty-r ;y`il`uuL11000i over the resi- dents objections, and even with similar conditions as those that are proposed, within 4 years the neighbor- hood had serious problems with motorcycle gangs, and lower property values. Jack Crowley, 2566 Mounds View Drive, stated that even if it is just parts sold, people will arrive on motorcycles and ruin the neighborhood. Mr. Masanz, 2626 Lake Court Drive, asked why the rezoning was being requested if there no lodger is a tenant interested in moving in. City Planner Herman explained it would be for potential future tenants. Mayor Hankner stated Kraus Anderson has come before the Council several timeu asking for sl;cht changes in the Code to all certain businesses in. She explained anyone can come in at any time to request a change in the Code, at which time a zoning change goes before the Planning Commission, who reviews it and makes a recommendation to the Council. It is up to 41, the Council to ultimately approve or reject the change. The public hearing tonight is being held to get input. She added the Councii needs to hear from the people to be able to make an informed decision. February 13, 1909 Page Three I Mounds View city Council February 13, 1989 Regular Meetiog Page Four Ray Barue, 2570 Mounds View Drive, questioned what B-2 zoning is. City Planner Herman defined B-2 zoning. the added the proposed ordinance would be as a conot[16na1 use, and the applicant would have to eo before the Planning Commission and City Council before a tenant would be allowed, and if the conditions are not mat, the conditional use permit would be revoked. Councilmember Wuori questioned where the potential tenant went. Mr. Grovel explained they had gone to Spring Lake Park, in the vicinity of 85th and Highway 65. Catherine Carpenter, 265U Lake Court Drive, stated no one in Silver View Pond wants to see this change, as they have too much traffic already. She stated the people from Dominos Pizza are a problem with the way they speed through the area, and there is also a pro- blen with the traffic associated with Burger King and all the high school students racing there on their lunch hour and after school. Mayor Hankner closed the public hearing and reopened the regular i. iii iee�iig at ,.. 2,„ p•"• Mayor Hankner closed the regular meeting and opened 10. Public Hearing: the third public hearing at 7:27 PM. ordinance No. 452 Entitled city Planner Herman explained the intent of the pro- "Zoning" posed ordinance is to pull similar uses together in B-2, B-3 and B-4 zoning. Mayor Hankner explained the process followed for consideration of an ordinance adoption., She explained the Council does not have to take action tonight. They could have the first reading, and if it passes, the second reading and adoption would follow in two Weeks. Clerk/Administrator Pauley read the proposed permitted uses for 9-2, B-3 and B-4 zoning. Mrs. Carpenter questioned why Dominos Pizza was allowed in B-2 zoning. Clerk/Administrator Pauley stated he would have to check back through the records, but he believed it was under bakery and delicatessen. He explained delivery is not prohibited, and the ordinance was different at ur Dominos came in. He added he would check it furtf:-Ir and get back to her. Mounds View City Council Regular Meeting Mr. Grovel explained the idea of Silver View Plaza is to provide services to the residents, and he had not been aware of a problem with the Dominos drivers. He stated he would write to the manager and advise him to abide by the rules and posted speed limits. Mayor Hankner closed the public hearing and reopened the regular meeting at 7:e9 PH. Councilmember Quick questioned why there was any hurry to take action if a tenant is not coming in. City Planner Herman explained that Kraus Anderson has applied for this, for future use. Councilmember Blanchard stated the ordinance looks good with the restrictions that are included, but without proper policing, it could become a detriment to the neighborhood. Mayor Hankner stated she has a problem in supporting an ordinance change. She added the Planning Commission did a good job but she feels it is an inappropriate use within a B-2 zone, and would present problems for the neighborhood. ;.. Councilmember Quick stated he did not reel it fit into the B-2 scheme. Councilmember Wuori stated the Planning Commission spent quite a while discussing the issue, and they realized it could be a problem for the neighborhood. However, if they had denied it at the Planning Commission level, the applicant would have been granted an appeal. By making a recommendation to the Council, they have eliminated a longer process. Motion/Second: Quick/Blanchard to deny Ordinance No. 454, amending the Municipal Code o! Mounds View by amending Chapter 40 entitled "Zoninq". 4 ayes 0 nays Mayor Hankner requested that auto accessory store be moved out of B-2 to B-3. Clerk/Administrator Pauley clarified what hobby stores could include. Mr. Grovel asked for an explanation of the difference (�a between what is sold in a hardware store and an auto parts store in B-3. Mayor Hankner replied hardware stores are more diverse, and their primary stock is not related to automobiles. February 13, 1989 Page Five 11. First Reading of ordinance No. 454 Motion Carried 12.
