Jennifer Dickinson, Tubman representative, reviewed the Tubman annual report from 2025 with 12

from the immigrant community. She thanked the City’s prosecutor and police department for their 14
tremendous efforts on behalf of the community. 15

Mayor Lindstrom noted there were a total of 377 advocacy services that were provided to Mounds 17
View residents last year. Ms. Dickinson reported this was the case. She commented on the time 18
that was spent on the different resources that were provided to residents. 19
20

approval. She noted pets could now be accommodated in the shelter. 23
24
Council Member Smith requested Ms. Dickinson provide staff with contact information on the pet 25

B. 2025 MVPD Annual Report- Chief Zender. 28
29
Police Chief Zender reviewed the 2025 Mounds View Police Department annual report with the 30
City Council. He explained the annual report showcased the K-9 program. He discussed how K-9 31
Grizz and Niko had passed away and K-9 Ace had medically retired. He stated this left a huge hole 32
in the departments K-9 unit. He indicated Officer Aase was willing to take on another dog and 33
reported K-9 Brandi was doing a great job. He noted the department currently had 18 officers and 34
two officers that were being backgrounded. He stated he would be working to fill the SRO position 35
for next fall. He discussed the community outreach that was completed in the previous year, which 36
included Night to Unite, Festival in the Park, and Veteran’s Day events. He reviewed the awards 37
his officers received and noted he greatly appreciated the unveiling event that was held at the 38
Tribute Park. He was proud to report that the police department collected 956 coats in the recent 39
coat drive. He explained the City had 29 block parties for Night to Unite and a lot of positive 40
interactions were held with the public. He then reviewed the calls for service for 2025, noting calls 41
were up. He stated even being short staffed, his officers were remaining diligent and being 42
proactive. He thanked the City Council for approving the Flock agreement and commented on the 43
numerous ways these cameras were helping the police department. He reviewed the training his 44
officers received in the previous year and noted the department also received new sidearms. 45

Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 3
Council Member Gunn inquired when the second K-9 would be with the department. Police Chief 1
Zender anticipated this would occur late spring. He noted Officer Kammerer would be taking this 2
K-9 for the department. 3

Council Member Smith asked if the portable speed signs were able to collect speed data. Police 5
Chief Zender explained the two portable signs were able to collect speed data. 6

loss time injury, which included over 51,000 calls and 1,200 physical arrests. He commended the 13
police chief for his efforts and for having the right staff members in place. 14
15
Mayor Lindstrom questioned if a CSO could become an SRO. Police Chief Zender explained he 16
would prefer his SRO’s to be licensed police officers. 17
18
Mayor Lindstrom inquired if the speed trailer had been retired. Police Chief Zender reported this 19
was the case. 20
21
Mayor Lindstrom requested the police chief speak to the data that was being collected by Flock, if 22
it could be shared and how it was used by the department. Police Chief Zender stated if another 23
agency wanted to use Flock data from Mounds View, a data request would have to be made, and 24
the department would have to grant permission. He reported the department had a transfer portal 25
on the website which explains who was using the department’s data and how it was being used. 26
He noted the only request that has been made to date was from the BCA. He discussed how the 27
data has been used to find a vulnerable adult and stolen vehicles. He indicated data security was 28
of the utmost importance to the department. He reiterated that the federal government has not 29
requested any data from the department and no data has been shared with the federal government. 30
31
Council Member Meehlhause questioned how many neighboring communities had Flock cameras. 32
Police Chief Zender reported Roseville, New Brighton, Columbia Heights, Fridley, Blaine, North 33
Oaks, and St. Paul has Flock cameras. He indicated these cameras are proving to be a force 34
multiplier, especially for departments that are currently short staffed. 35
36
Mayor Lindstrom thanked Police Chief Zender and the entire police department for their integrity 37
and diligent service to the community. He opened the meeting for comments or questions from the 38
public. 39
40

Police Chief Zender indicated this was still being done but noted the previous problems have 42
curtailed. 43
44
Valerie Amundsen, 3048 Woodale Drive, asked how many cameras the City had and inquired if 45
the number was sufficient for the size of the community. Police Chief Zender reported the City 46
Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 4
currently has 10 fixed cameras and was looking at one flex camera that could be mounted at various 1
spaces. He was of the opinion 10 cameras were sufficient for a community the size of Mounds 2
View. 3
4
Joe Knutson, 7948 Edgewood Drive, questioned who audits the Flock camera data. Police Chief 5
Zender explained he and the deputy chief, along with an outside agency, ensured all the City’s data 6
was in compliance with BCA requirements. He noted the audit would be posted on the City’s 7
website once it was complete. He reported that the department was required to complete an audit 8
on the Flock data and body camera data every two years. 9
10
Tony Preciado, 8217 Long Lake Road, inquired how quickly the department was able to respond 11
to issues that arise from a Flock camera hit. Police Chief Zender indicated the response time was 12
as quick as getting a hit on your phone or running a license plate through NCIC. He estimated it 13
only took seconds for officers to respond. 14
15
7. PUBLIC COMMENT 16
17
Mayor Lindstrom encouraged the public to speak with kindness and respect when addressing the 18
City Council during Public Comment. 19
20
Vince Meyer, 8380 Spring Lake Road, reported citizens safety should be number one. He 21
expressed concern with the issues at Ardan and Spring Lake Road. He reported the City was 22
putting out band aids and he did not want to see a child run over. He requested the problems be 23
fixed once and for all. 24
25
Jean Strait, 7728 Knollwood Drive, thanked the City for the amazing partnership that has been 26
created with Manna Market. She noted she had been volunteering with Manna Market and she 27
appreciated the great work they were doing in the community. She appreciated the great work 28
Ralph Reeder was doing in the community as well but understood Ralph Reeder could only help 29
families once per month while Manna Market could help families once per week. She commented 30
on how Manna Market went from helping 2,5000 families to 5,000 families in one week. She 31
clarified for the record there was no Minnesota law that prohibited municipalities from partnering 32
with faith-based organizations, but rather direct partnerships are common. She discussed how 33
seniors and families function better and children can learn when they are properly fed. She thanked 34
the Council for allowing her the opportunity to serve this community. 35
36
Katie Born, 5060 Red Oak Drive, encouraged the City Council to extend the food distribution 37
program. She noted that since November 2025 2,077 people have benefited from this program. 38
She wanted to see the City protecting, serving and standing up for its neighbors which creates a 39
strong community. She indicated her sons have been helping distribute food and she believed this 40
was one small way the City can help those who were struggling at this time. 41
42
Debra Sovano, 5093 Irondale Road, requested the Council hold a special emergency town hall 43
meeting with City officials in attendance as well as police department officials for the purpose of 44
allowing Mounds View residents to discuss how the last month of ICE efforts have impacted 45
Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 5
residents’ daily lives. She stated if the City is to survive the next three years, things have got to 1
change, and government officials need to come together to work towards solutions. 2
3
Ruth O’Hara, 5445 Jackson Drive, concurred with the previous speaker. 4
5
Julia Wolf, 8065 Eastwood Road, reported she did not believe any more public funds should be 6
provided to to Manna Market. She believed the food shelf in the community could provide food to 7
people who are shut in. She noted the County and Second Harvest Food Shelf also have services 8
available to help those who were struggling. She feared working with Manna Market was a conflict 9
of interest and that working with this organization was not in the City’s best interest. 10
11
Timothy Wood, 2501 Sherwood Road, explained 12.5% of the Mounds View population was 12
below the poverty line. He stated the Manna Market was serving these people. 13
14
Corrina Alivar, 2144 Dickinson, stated she lived in a community with 40 families that were 15
benefiting from the Manna Market food distribution and noted this food was their life jacket right 16
now. She reported she worked with Hispanic families and guided them to resources that were 17
available. She noted many of these families were fearful at this time. She commented while there 18
may be other resources available in the community, these families were hesitant to reach out for 19
help. She explained Manna Market was greatly benefiting her community at this time. 20
21
Joyce Jones-Strait, 7728 Knollwood Drive, explained two years ago that her wife was injured on 22
the job and she has been in a critical financial position since that time. She noted her wife made 23
more money than her even though she was a tenured teacher. She reported she has not paid her 24
full mortgage in over two years. She commented there have been weeks where she makes the 25
decision between paying the minimum payment for her mortgage or eating. She stated she was 26
lucky because they were resourceful. She indicated that the Manna Market has been a gift to this 27
community. She stated she works with a population of children that are largely of color and she 28
sees the fear of ICE in them. She discussed how she and Jean volunteer at the Villas and explained 29
that these individuals were extremely appreciative of the food distribution from Manna Market. 30
She commented further on how the immigration efforts has created trauma in the community and 31
people were really struggling at this time. 32
33
(Unknown), 2199 Terrace Drive, explained she was lucky enough to be a delivery driver for a few 34
weeks and noted this has been a profound experience for her. She indicated it would cost Mounds 35
View residents $3.20 annually to continue the Manna Market program through the rest of the year 36
and she supported the City Council continuing this program. 37
38
Rebecca Scholl, 2467 Hillview Road, stated she has been working with Ralph Reeder, the high 39
school and the library. She understood that some families were not eligible for Ralph Reeder 40
because families had to apply and get paperwork. She indicated Ralph Reeder was only a solution 41
for some families. 42
43
Ms. O’Hara requested the Council expand the Manna Market food program. She appreciated how 44
the residents of Mounds View took care of each other and were not pushing this responsibility off 45
to the County. 46

Kribashini Moorthy, Stantec, stated the applicant, Hampton Companies, is proposing to develop a 2
memory care and assisted living facility within the city. The applicant is working with the Sunrise 3
United Methodist Church property to develop the facility on the southern half of the church’s 4
property. The facility would, according to the applicant’s narrative, have 32 total suites/units - 20 5
suites/units with assisted living services and 12 suites/units with memory care services. The 6
narrative also notes that “The assisted living residents will be able to enjoy a home-like atmosphere 7
in a setting that allows them the freedom to participate in many amenities that not only help them 8
in their daily care needs but also provide them with a higher quality of life than that offered in a 9
more institutional setting. The memory care residents are provided with their own secured area of 10
the building that has its own separate amenities like a congregate dining room sunroom, 11
activity/craft area and a secure outdoor porch. These residents benefit from a life enrichment 12
program that is specially designed for residents with Alzheimer’s and Dementia.” To develop the 13
facility as proposed, the applicant’s team has submitted the following requests to the city: 14
15
1. A preliminary plat request. 16
a. The proposed plat would split the existing parcel into two lots/parcels. The church 17
would remain on the north parcel (shown on the preliminary plat as Lot 1), while 18
the proposed development would occur on the south parcel (shown as Lot 2). 19
2. A request to amend the city’s Comprehensive Plan. 20
a. The requested amendment would be to change the future land use designation of 21
Lot 2 as “public/semi-public” to “mixed use”. 22
3. A rezoning request. 23
a. The applicant requests to rezone the newly proposed parcel (Lot 2) as ‘PUD - 24
Planned Unit Development’. 25
26
Ms. Moorthy explained a preliminary plat is the first of two steps for a subdivision to occur; if the 27
preliminary plat is approved, the applicant can request a final plat. A request to rezone a property 28
is covered under Section 160.450; in addition, the procedures for a PUD are covered in Section 29
160.318. Comprehensive Plan Amendments are covered under Section 160.451. A Comprehensive 30
Plan Amendment, if approved by the City Council, will then have to be approved by the 31
Metropolitan Council. The following requests were reviewed by the Planning Commission at their 32
2/4/2026 and 2/18/2026 meetings. Staff commented further on the request and reported the 33
Planning Commission recommended approval of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment, Rezoning 34
to PUD and Preliminary Plat. 35
36
Council Member Smith asked if the two separate lots would have two separate zonings. Ms. 37
Moorthy reported this was the case, noting the church property would remain public/semi-public 38
and the senior living facility property would be rezoned as PUD. 39

from Garland Company LLC for roof repairs for the Groveland Park building. He explained staff 35
would use a third-party contractor to assist with this project. He reviewed the bids that were 36
received and recommended the bid be awarded to Garland Company. 37
38
Vince Meyer, 8380 Spring Lake Road, questioned why the City was not pursuing a Class 4 shingle 39
when it will last 50 years instead of 30 years. He indicated the cost would only be 20% higher and 40
would save the City money on insurance. 41
42
Tony Presiado, 8217 Long Lake Road, asked why the maintenance department wasn’t replacing 43
the roof. He questioned why the City was hiring this work out to a contractor. 44
45
Public Works/Parks and Recreation Director Peterson explained he could investigate a Class 4 46
Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 9
shingle and noted the maintenance department was deferring this roofing work to a professional. 1
2
Mayor Lindstrom stated a metal roof would last forever and questioned if the City should 3
investigate this. Public Works/Parks and Recreation Director Peterson reported he could 4
investigate this if direction was provided by the Council. 5
6
Council Member Clark asked how often this building was rented. Public Works/Parks and 7
Recreation Director Peterson indicated this was one of the lowest rented buildings in the park 8
system. 9
10
Mayor Lindstrom inquired if the City would get another 30 years out of the building. Public 11
Works/Parks and Recreation Director Peterson stated the building as in great shape and noted the 12
City would get another 30 years out of this building. 13
14
Valerie Amundsen, 3048 Woodale Drive, commented on residential homes, Minnesota insurance 15
companies are not insuring homes with roofs for over 15 years, unless they are grandfathered in. 16
17
Jean Strait, 7728 Knollwood Drive, explained she recently got a new roof and there were hail 18
resistant shingles that the City could investigate. She commented she received a 23% decrease in 19
her homeowners insurance this year and 50% last year. 20
21
Mr. Meyer provided further information on the metal catches that must be installed with metal 22
roofs to catch the snow over entrances. 23
24
Council Member Meehlhause inquired if the City’s insurance rates would be impacted if the City 25
were to pursue a metal roof. Finance Director Bauman reported that each of the City’s buildings 26
are given a value by the League of Minnesota Cities and the values do not change if the roof is 27
replaced. 28

of one (1) replacement dump truck. He explained that the City purchased a 2011 Freightliner dump 40
truck that was used for hauling materials, street maintenance and snow and ice control. He 41
indicated dump trucks were replaced on a 15-year cycle, and this dump truck was due for 42
replacement. He commented further on the new dump truck options and requested the Council 43
approve the preordering of the dump truck noting the City would take possession in 2027. 44
45
Council Member Smith asked how much it would cost the City to preorder the dump truck. Public 46
Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 10
Works/Parks and Recreation Director Peterson indicated no funds would come out of the 2026 1
budget, noting the expense for the dump truck would come out of the 2027 budget. He explained 2
by preordering the dump truck now, the City would lock in the current price. He commented further 3
on how the life expectancy for the dump trucks may have to be extended going forward given the 4
rising costs for these pieces of equipment. 5
6
Mayor Lindstrom inquired if the $220,000 that was budgeted for the dump truck was based on the 7
cost of a previous unit. Public Works/Parks and Recreation Director Peterson stated the last dump 8
truck purchased was $201,000 in 2011. 9
10
Vince Meyer, 8380 Spring Lake Road, questioned if the City would receive a rebate if the tariffs 11

through the court based on the actions of the City Council from February 2. He reported the 25
proposed Resolution and Ordinance were staff’s attempt to address the Council’s feedback from 26
February 2. He then provided the City Council with a handout from the City Attorney. He reiterated 27
that this was the First Reading of the Ordinance and the Council could provide staff with feedback 28
and amendments could be made to the Ordinance prior to the Second Reading. 29
30
Council Member Clark reported the direction from the City Attorney was to create a policy and 31
refer to this policy within the Ordinance. City Administrator Zikmund reported this was the case. 32
33
Council Member Clark recommended the definitions under staging operations within the 34
Ordinance have the sentence end after the word personnel as this would eliminate the definition of 35
federal immigration in staging operations. 36
37
Council Member Gunn did not see the need for the change. 38
39
Council Member Clark indicated she was proposing to make the definition more ambiguous. She 40
did not want the Ordinance to speak to a single event. City Administrator Zikmund stated this was 41
a reasonable language change. 42
43
Council Member Smith stated if the words “for the purpose of enforcing civil immigration”, the 44
City could be opened for no one being able to stage operations in Mounds View. 45
46

Regular Meeting Page 11
Council Member Clark explained she was only proposing to change the definition within the 1
Ordinance. 2
3
Council Member Meehlhause and Council Member Gunn indicated they could support the 4
proposed language change to the staging definition. 5
6
Council Member Smith inquired if staff would be drafting the policy prior to the next Council 7
meeting. City Administrator Zikmund reported this would be the case. 8
9
Sharon Kirchner, 8406 Red Oak Drive, asked what was meant by stewardship of municipal 10
properties. 11
12
City Administrator Zikmund stated this was the legal phrasing that was provided by the City 13
Attorney that means the City was stewards of its own property and this Ordinance states City 14
property could not be used without the City’s permission for federal for the purpose of enforcing 15
federal immigration laws except as authorized for the purpose of discriminating against any 16
individuals for personal benefit for profit. 17
18
Council Member Clark indicated if federal agents were found staging in a City park the process 19
would be administrative through the courts. City Administrator Zikmund reported this was the 20
case noting this would be a civil violation and not a criminal matter. 21
22
Council Member Smith inquired if there would be fines attached to this violation. City 23
Administrator Zikmund stated if the City were to receive a complaint the complaint would be 24
forwarded to the City Attorney to bring civil action and damage claims could be brought forward. 25
26
Tony Presiado, 8127 Long Lake Road, questioned if this Ordinance would have local officials 27
arresting federal officials. 28
29
Mayor Lindstrom reiterated this Ordinance did not speak to arresting anyone but rather created a 30
civil violation for federal agents if they were to stage on City property. 31
32
Brian Amundsen, 3048 Woodale Drive, stated the federal government has responsibilities and 33
those responsibilities include enforcing as many laws as they can and this was generating a lot of 34
emotion in people. He indicated this was creating fear and terror in some individuals, while others 35
were not feeling this fear or terror. He was of the opinion of the Council were to pass this 36
Resolution and Ordinance it would be litigated because the language was twofaced. He did not 37
want the City to waste money when this money could be used to help the very people who were at 38
risk at this time. 39
40
Council Member Smith questioned what kind of fees the City would be facing if several federal 41
agents were to stage on a City property. City Administrator Zikmund reported the agents would 42
have to be discriminating against protected classes, trying to profit or would have to be acting in a 43
federal immigration capacity. 44

11
F. Resolution 10217, Authorizing and Approving Funding for Manna Market 12
Food Shelf Support. 13
14
City Administrator Zikmund requested the Council authorize and approve funding for Manna 15
Market food shelf support. He explained the Mayor requested he bring this item forward for 16
Council consideration. 17
18
Mayor Lindstrom stated the City has been paying $800 per week for the food which provided 300 19
boxes of food per week. He reported after speaking with Manna Market he was able to get this 20
program funded for the rest of the year for $25,000. He discussed how partnering with the Ralph 21
Reeder food shelf would not provide the same level of assistance to residents because they are 22
only able to provide residents with food once a month. He reported the school district was very 23
appreciative of the additional food support being offered through Manna Market. 24
25
Council Member Clark reported this program began in November when SNAP benefits were lost. 26
She indicated over 2,000 people have been served to date and noted 95% of those helped were at 27
or below the poverty line. She explained that almost 300 families were being served each week, 28
which included several seniors in the community and student at Pinewood. She stated she had 29
seven teams and 50 volunteers were making this happen on a weekly basis. She was grateful the 30
City was able to provide this service to the community. She clarified she attended Substance 31
Church but noted she was not benefiting nor was the church benefiting from Manna Market, but 32
rather the Manna Market just had space at the church. She noted she was happy to keep organizing 33
the volunteers if the food relief were to continue. She provided further information on how the 34
deliveries were made to individuals in the community. 35
36
Council Member Gunn explained she volunteered at Pinewood and on Thursdays the front office 37
looked like a major grocery store because food was being delivered for students to bring home for 38
their families. While she understood the SNAP benefits had been reinstated, there were still trying 39
to get caught up on their financials and she supported the City continuing with the Manna Market 40
through the end of the year. 41
42
Brian Amundsen, 3048 Woodale Drive, reported he believed it was wonderful when neighbors 43
helped neighbors. He indicated he was having a problem with the fact that Statute 465.039 states 44
governing bodies can provide grants to non-profits and not donations. He stated the City was not 45
creating a grant program but rather was providing a donation to distribute food. He explained the 46
Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 13
City was spending a great deal of money on this, noting this was an unfunded expense and the 1
budget has not been amended. He recommended the City create a grant program for funds to be 2
issued to Manna Market. 3
4
City Administrator Zikmund advised the City Attorney read from State Statute that this was one 5
of the authorized expenditures. He noted non-profit food shelves were an approved municipal 6
expense. 7
8
Heather Schugard, 7984 Woodlawn Drive, explained she was proud of the great work the City has 9
done to support the people in the City. She indicated she grew up in a family that relied on the 10
food shelf for quite a while. She appreciated the fact the resources she was giving to the City was 11
now being used to help others in need. She supported the City continuing the Manna Market 12
funding through the end of the year. 13
14
Mayor Lindstrom stated each of the Councilmembers has volunteered their time at the Manna 15
Market because there was a need. 16
17
Council Member Smith reviewed the comments she has received from the public noting some 18
people were afraid to attend the Manna Market because they were afraid, they would be retaliated 19
against. She indicated another resident let her know they would not receive boxes because they 20
were unable to use the food that was being provided and were more in need of rice and flour. She 21
further explained that she understood this was a pilot program. She supported the program 22
continuing but recommended only deliveries be made to ensure the boxes were going to Mounds 23
View residents. She explained Mounds View was the only City that has taken money out of its 24
budget to provide food resources when the SNAP benefits were put on hold. 25
26
Mayor Lindstrom stated there was such a large need at this time that he did not want to do away 27
with the drive through option. 28
29
Council Member Smith indicated she was concerned with the fact the City was providing services 30
through taxpayers’ dollars to people outside the community. She understood people were coming 31
through the drive through and they did not have a financial need and others were taking the food 32
from the drive through and were taking it to another community to sell it. She supported the City 33
finding a way to ensure the deliveries and drive through was offered only to Mounds View 34
residents because taxpayer dollars were being used to fund the program. 35
36
Council Member Clark reported the program was not allowed to discriminate as to who does or 37
does not receive the food given how the program was funded. She explained the City would not 38
be allowed to close the services off to just Mounds View residents, otherwise the City would have 39
to pay full price for the food. 40
41
Mayor Lindstrom discussed the cost for the box of food and stated he believed this was one of the 42
best programs the City could offer to taxpayers because the food was being given directly back to 43
taxpayers at a reduced rate. 44
45
Council Member Smith explained she supported the City helping people but inquired if the Council 46
Mounds View City Council February 23, 2026
Regular Meeting Page 14
could get something in writing from Manna Market that provides information on the actual number 1
of people that have been served. 2
3
Valerie Amundsen, 3048 Woodale Drive, reiterated her husband’s comment noting the Council 4
should investigate the Statute that was referenced to ensure the City was following State Statute. 5
While she applauded the efforts of the City, she suggested action on this item be tabled to ensure 6
the City Attorney could review this matter. She recommended the City also investigate taking 7
donations to help with providing food assistance to others versus this remaining a line item on the 8
budget going forward. 9
10
Council Member Meehlhause reported the City’s budget was roughly $8 million and $25,000 11
represented three-tenths of 1%. 12
13
City Administrator Zikmund stated he received three emails prior to this meeting where the 14
residents wanted their names in the record as a show of support for this Resolution. These residents 15
were Caroline Bedford, Gina Atkins and Julia Franz. 16
17
Council Member Smith recommended an end date be set within the Resolution. 18
19
MOTION/SECOND: Meehlhause/Clark. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Resolution 10217, 20
Authorizing and Approving Funding for Manna Market Food Shelf Support as amended setting an 21
end date of December 31, 2026 and approving an increase to the General Fund Budget. 22

immigration enforcement efforts. He explained the coalition has over 30 cities and the fee to join 36
the coalition was $1,500. 37

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Rayla Sue Ewald, Human Resource Director
Item Title/Subject: Resolution 10220, Approving Evidence Technician Status
Change from Full-Time to Part-Time
Background:
Evidence Technician Hanna Kenow has a preference to work a part-time work schedule. She recently
interviewed with another organization and received a job offer. However, Ms. Kenow desires to remain with
the City of Mounds View and has discussed the possibility of reducing her Evidence Technician work
schedule from full-time status to part-time status. She requested to alter her schedule from 40 hours per
week to 24 hours per week, and work Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Discussion:
Ms. Kenow assured the Police Chief and Deputy Chief that with proper scheduling of property pickups on
Monday’s, Wednesday’s and Friday’s, this portion of the position will not be an issue. Additionally, Ms.
Kenow will be able to manage the TAC responsibilities within the time she is in the office. Due to the training
Ms. Kenow has received specifically within her role in the Police Department, and length of experience
within the position, she is confident she can manage the workload. The Police Chief and Deputy Chief
agree, and the HR Committee concur. All are willing to allow the status change to move forward and
reevaluate if necessary in the future. The position will remain Grade 5. Ms. Kenow is currently at Step 8 of
the pay plan, and advance as scheduled to Step 9 January 1, 2027 (max wage). Benefits will end effective
April 1, 2026 as the position is under 30 hours per week.

Financial Impact:
Savings of $24,810 wages and $15,700 benefits for 2026.

WHEREAS, Police Department Evidence Technician Hanna Kenow requested to reduce her work

however, may wish to reevaluate in the future if necessary; and
WHEREAS, the HR Committee supports the decision to reduce the work hours of the Evidence
Technician from 40 hours per week to 24 hours per week and reevaluate in the future if staff deems
necessary; and
WHEREAS, a minor alteration has been made to the job description adding the words part-time.
The position remains a Grade 5. Ms. Kenow is currently at Step 8 of the Pay Plan and will advance per the

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and Mounds View City Council
From: Evan Monson, AICP, Stantec, City Planner
Kribashini Moorthy, AICP
Item Title/Subject: Suite Living Senior Care of Mounds View
Address: 7687 Long Lake Road (Parcel ID 083023220038)
Zoning: Single Family Residential (R-1)
Owner: Free Life Family Worship Center
Applicant: Jeremy Larson – Hampton Companies, LLC
Review Period: 60-day review period ends 3/9/2026, 120-day review period ends
5/8/2026.
Request(s): Second Reading and Approval of Ordinance 1055 Rezoning the
Property at 7687 Long Lake Road from R-1 (Single Family
Residential) to ‘PUD’ (Planned Unit Development)
Introduction:
The applicant, Hampton Companies, is proposing to develop a memory care and assisted living
facility within the city. The applicant is working with the Sunrise United Methodist Church
property to develop the facility on the southern half of the church’s property. The facility would,
per the applicant’s narrative, have 32 total suites/units - 20 suites/units with assisted living
services and 12 suites/units with memory care services. The narrative also notes that “The
assisted living residents will be able to enjoy a home-like atmosphere in a setting that allows
them the freedom to participate in many amenities that not only help them in their daily care
needs but also provide them with a higher quality of life than that offered in a more institutional
setting. The memory care residents are provided with their own secured area of the building
that has its own separate amenities like a congregate dining room sunroom, activity/craft area
and a secure outdoor porch. These residents benefit from a life enrichment program that is
specially designed for residents with Alzheimer’s and Dementia.”
In order to develop the facility as proposed, the applicant’s team has submitted the following
requests to the city:
1. A preliminary plat request.
a. The proposed plat would split the existing parcel into two lots/parcels. The church
would remain on the north parcel (shown on the preliminary plat as Lot 1), while
the proposed development would occur on the south parcel (shown as Lot 2).
2. A request to amend the city’s Comprehensive Plan.
a. The requested amendment would be to change the future land use designation
of Lot 2 as “public/semi-public” to “mixed use”.
3. A rezoning request.
a. The applicant requests to rezone the newly proposed parcel (Lot 2) as ‘PUD -
Planned Unit Development’.

City of Mounds View Staff Report
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Nyle Zikmund, City Administrator
Item Title/Subject: Second Reading and Approval of Ordinance 1056, Stewardship
of Municipal Resources
Introduction:
Recent Federal Government immigration enforcement activities have caused varying levels
of stress and concern among citizens/residents throughout the nation, State of Minnesota,
and the City of Mounds View.
Background:
Immigration reform has been a hot national political topic for more than a decade with the
current administration’s efforts more visible and disruptive to Mounds View residents than
any time in recent past.
Discussion:
Communities across the nation, state, and the City of Mounds View have experienced various
degrees of impact. Public protesting, public comment at council meetings, and widespread
media coverage are the new normal.
The City of Mounds View, by motion at their February 2, 2026, Special Council meeting
approved filing of an Amicus Brief to CASE 0:26-cv-00190-KMM-DJF – State of Minnesota,
City of Minneapolis, and City of St. Paul against the Federal Government. Lauderdale and
Richfield similarly joined as have others.
Further, council has discussed immigration enforcement to some degree at all recent
council meetings/workshops, with residents speaking at most. The Mayor has also held
listening sessions, in addition to his weekly coffee sessions with more than 40 total
residents attending.
Resolution 10218, which was approved on February 23, 2026, provides history and values
while Ordinance 1056, Stewardship of Municipal Resources guides the use of public
property/municipal resources. Enforcement of the ordinance occurs at the administrative
level. Anyone can report a concern/violation to the Office of the City Administrator who will
conduct an investigation which will be forwarded to the City Attorney’s office for resolution.
Council was supportive of the approach using policy and staff indicated a “draft policy”
would be included in time for the second reading. Said policy is included as an attachment
and can be adopted by a verbal motion as part of the discussion and adopted process.
Introduction and first reading of Ordinance 1056 was conducted on February 23, 2026.

City of Mounds View
Separation Ordinance Reporting Policy
Purpose
The City of Mounds View (the “City”) stewards its resources for the benefit of the public. This
stewardship of City resources is performed with care and responsibility as well as in
accordance with state public purpose expenditures law and in a nondiscriminatory fashion
compliant with both the Minnesota and United States Constitution. The City is committed
to serving all residents and visitors with dignity, respect, and fairness, and to fostering a safe,
welcoming, and inclusive community through the use of its public resources.
Scope
In furtherance of this purpose, the City Council of Mounds View adopted Ordinance no.
1056, creating Chapter 39 of the City Code. Section 39.03 of the City Code prohibits a City
employee or public official from allowing the use of city resources for the fo llowing purposes:
1) Enforcing federal immigration laws, except as authorized by law, a judicial
warrant, or other similar lawful authorization;
2) Discriminating against any individual on the basis of a protected class
characteristic; or
3) For personal benefit or profit.
City property may not be used or accessed by individuals or federal, state, or local agencies
for staging purposes, unless that use is authorized by a judicial warrant, subpoena, or other
similar lawful authorization. City property and resources are defined as under Chapter 39.
Section 39.04 requires that the City implement a process for the reporting of violations and
requests to use City property in violation of Section 39.03. The purpose of this policy is to set
forth that process and the requirements of those reports.
Policy
Pursuant to Section 39.04 of its Code, the City requires a written report be made recording
1) when City resources are identified or observed as being used for a prohibited purpose
under Section 39.03, and 2) when a request is made and denied for the use of City resources
for a purpose which is prohibited under that same section.
The report may be made in any reasonable and clear manner. It must include, at minimum,
the following information:
1) The date(s) the request for use of resources was received or resources were
identified or observed as being used for a prohibited purpose;
2) The identity of the individual or agency requesting use of City resources for a
prohibited purpose or, where reasonably identifiable, who was observed or
identified as using City resources for a prohibited purpose;
3) A summary description of the City resources requested or used, which shall
not include any personally identifiable information; and
4) The prohibited purpose for which City resources were observed or identified
as being used or for which the request for City resources was denied.
This reporting requirement applies to any City employee or City public official who identifies
or observes the use of, or denies a request to use, City resources for a prohibited purpose
under Chapter 39. The report required under this policy must be made to the Office of the
City Administrator, or their indicated designee, within five business days of the employee or
public official’s identification, observation, or denial.
Reports received under this policy will be reviewed by the Office of the City Administrator.
The City Administrator may subsequently forward such reports to the City’s prosecuting
attorney and provide a copy to its city attorney for additional review in order to evaluate and
reasonably determine whether a violation of City Code has occurred and what
administrative enforcement action may follow.
Members of the public, including but not limited to residents or visitors who have rented City
park spaces, may make a similar report of the Office of the City Administrator when that
member of the public identifies or observes the use of City resources for a prohibited
purpose. Reports received from members of the public will be reviewed and acted upon in
the same manner as outlined above.
