City Council Regular Meeting Minutes <br />October 25, 2022 <br />Page 4 <br />agencies from the Hennepin County area, to include police, fire, public works, and emergency <br />management. - <br />4 The group met several times over the next several months to hear from industry experts, vendors, <br />5 and evaluate various products through in -person demonstrations and displays. The vendor list <br />6 was reduced to two and discussions on logistics and cost information was initiated. Each agency <br />7 evaluated their need and blueprint for fencing and a final individual approximate cost was <br />8 developed. Additional agencies from the seven -county metropolitan area have since joined the <br />9 working group. In September 2022, the Consortium formally started. <br />10 <br />12 <br />13 <br />14 <br />15 <br />16 <br />17 <br />18 <br />19 <br />20 <br />21 <br />22 <br />23 <br />24 <br />25 <br />26 <br />27 <br />28 <br />29 <br />30 <br />31 <br />32 <br />33 <br />34 <br />35 <br />36 <br />37 <br />38 <br />39 <br />40 <br />41 <br />42 <br />43 <br />44 <br />45 <br />In late 2021 and early 2022, members of the St. Anthony Police, Fire, and Public Works met to <br />discuss potential need for fencing in the City of St. Anthony. A map covering the water treatment <br />facility behind City Hall was identified as a critical structure needing protection. A map was <br />developed and submitted to the Fencing Workgroup, which in turn estimated the total annual <br />cost to the City of $6,350. An effort to secure $5 million dollars in State Funding toward this <br />project was initiated, which was likely to reduce the cost to each individual city by at least 50 <br />percent, but was unsuccessful. There are currently 25 members in the Consortium. The cost will <br />likely come down as more members join. <br />The Fence Consortium will identify a fencing vendor to own and store fencing in the metro area. <br />The Fence Consortium, will provide staffing for setting up the fence and for security during its <br />installation. The team would train three times per year and each individual city would be <br />responsible to cover costs associated with their personnel assigned to the team. <br />Staff recommends approval of the joint powers agreement to join the Fencing Consortium. <br />Councilmember Walker stated he understands the significance of protecting the water, but <br />typically if an event were to occur it would be at City Hall. Captain Spiess stated if the City Hall <br />was targeted the Fire Department would be targeted also. That would result in two and a half <br />times what the proposed cost is to the City. <br />Councilmember Jenson referred to the map and the water tower and water treatment plant would <br />be protected. That would also include the skateboard park. He asked if to include City Hall <br />would be two times the cost. Captain Spiess stated it would be $14,500 cost to include City Hall. <br />Captain Spiess stated he would revisit the other map if given Council direction. <br />Mayor Stille stated he had similar concerns but the $13M investment for the water treatment <br />plant needs protection. This had been discussed at a previous work session meeting. <br />Councilmember Webster stated she appreciates his reports. The people out of City Hall could be <br />relocated but the water treatment plant could not be relocated. <br />Councilmember Walker stated if a riot was to occur it would most likely be at this building. The <br />cost of replacing City Hall would not be as much as the water treatment plant. <br />
