September 11, 1992 File No: 900-118-00 Mr. Tom Burt City Manager St. Anthony Village 3301 Silver Lake Road St. Anthony, MN 55418 RE: PROPOSAL FOR ENGINEERING STREET RELOCATION 27TH AVENUE N.E. AND COOLIDGE STREET N.E. Dear Mr. Burt: Thanks so much for the opportunity to submit a proposal on the above project. As you can see we have skipped the fancy bound books listing our experience, capabilities, etc. because we are working for you now, and therefore, you know what we can do. We have previously forwarded an agreement for services to Mr. Larry Hamer and that document is the basis for this proposal. In looking at the work involved for the land changes, we have approached our proposal on the basis that the entire site area would be platted. We believe this approach to be the most cost effective and will provide for cleaner titles for the affected properties. We have structured our scope of work below to match our other proposal, at your request, but you will not that many of the items listed would not be normally separat- ed. For example: we would normally do boundary and topography work at the same time to save money. In addition, we have highlighted specific items in parenthesis that we believe are important for a complete job that may or may not be in the other proposal. SCOPE OF WORK COST 1 . Boundary & topographic survey (5 parcels). $4,200 (includes 2 lots for road easement acquisition) 2. Calculate new road alignment and prepare easement $2,300 descriptions and exhibits for acquisition, vacation and deeding of land to adjacent property owners. (includes staking easements in field for observation) • 1959 SLOAN PLACE, SUITE 200, ST.

Permits --- (included in item #6, above) 8. Construction estimating and bidding --- (included in item #9, below) 9. Contract administration and inspection $9,000 10. Construction staking $3,000 Total (not to exceed) engineering cost $36,500 We have made the following assumptions in preparing this proposal: 1. No soil borings will be necessary. 2. Field construction testing _will be included in.the construction bid documents to be performed by the contractor. 3. No public meetings are included. However, informal meetings with staff and property owners is included (6 meetings-total). 4. Survey work will be completed prior to snow season. 5. Inspection is part time per our draft agreement for services. 6. . Costs are included to provide bomanite cross walk on Kenzie Terrace. 7. Pahl Avenue N.E., Coolidge St. N.E. and 27th Avenue N.E. are not proposed for overlay or reconstruction in the next 10 years per the Braun Intertec pavement management report, dated February, 1992. Proposal - Street Relocation September 11, 1992 Page 3 8. No feasibility study is required. 9. Costs for project will not be assessed. 10. No costs are included for a traffic signal at Kenzie Terrace. Our preliminary review would lead us to believe that a signal would not be justified. 11 . Road pavement sections will match existing. We would propose to complete the above tasks on the following schedule. Boundary and topography survey October 5-October 9, 1992 Acquisition, vacation and deed documents October 12,-October 23, 1992 Plat documents: Preliminary October 12-October 23, 1992 Final November 2-November 13, 1992 Contract documents October 12-November 13, 1992 Construction 1993 The dates. are not as important as the time required to complete each phase. We can adjust the schedule to meet your needs. For your information, we have estimated the costs for th public improvements as iden- tified on the concept plan you provided to us at $150,000, not including a traffic signal at Kenzie Terrace. If you have any questions on our proposal please do not hesitate to call. Yours truly, MAIER STEWART & ASSOCIATES, INC. Thomas J. Madigan, P.E.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS 35 36 A. Ordinance No . 1992-008 , Re : Signs ( Second Reading) 37 38 Three concerns of some of the Councilmembers regarding the 39 Sign Ordinance were passed on to the City Attorney for his 40 review. The concerns involved political signs , removal of 41 nonconforming signs within a specific period of time and 42 deposits in connection with sign permit requests . 43 44 The City Attorney reviewed all three of these matters and 45 responded by letter to the Council . 46 47 He noted that there is no separate provision in State Statute 48 which addresses the date when noncommercial signs , such as 49 School District election signs , can be posted . He recommended 50 that the date of April 1st be used in a school election . 1 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING 2 SEPTEMBER 22 , 1992 3 PAGE 6 4 5 6 7 Councilmember Wagner requested that the City Attorney check 8 with the School District on this matter. 9 10 Motion by Marks , second by Wagner to approve the second 11 reading of Resolution No . 1992-008 , being the St .

Ordinance No. 1992-009 , Re : Housing Maintenance Code 18 ( Second reading) 19 20 The City Manager advised that the letter from the City 21 Attorney regarding this ordinance was left out of the agenda 22 packet . 23 24 He also noted that this draft ordinance is nearly a complete 25 duplication of the State Statute and it probably should be 26 decreased in' size. 27 28 The City Attorney stated he made no attempt at this time to 29 reduce the size of the ordinance. His purpose in waiting was 30 to retain all of the content of the State Statute until he 31 received direction from the City Council . He agreed that a 32 reduction of the ordinance would make it more manageable . 33 34 Mayor Ranallo expressed a concern with the reduction of the 35 ordinance. He suggested it may prohibit residents from having 36 all information available regarding ordinances . He questioned 37 if a reduced ordinance would be sufficient . The City Attorney 38 agreed that this was a valid point but he had noticed that 39 some sections of the ordinance appear to overlap . 40 41 Mayor Ranallo stated he has received calls from residents who 42 were concerned with tree branches and bushes in the neighbor ' s 43 yard which encroach onto private property. He questioned if 44 Subsection 13 on page 17 of the ordinance would address this 45 problem. 46 47 The City Attorney responded that this subsection would not 48 apply and' the example given by the Mayor is really a private 49 matter between neighbors . 50 • REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING _ SEPTEMBER 22 , 1992 3 PAGE 7 4 5 6 Councilmember Fleming inquired if these calls had involved 7 untrimmed or unsightly branches . The Mayor responded that they 8 were branches hanging over onto another property owner ' s yard . 9 She felt this should be a relatively simple problem to solve. 10 11 The City Manager stated the City should not become involved in 12 these types of situations particularly since they could be an 13 opportunity for some liability on the City ' s part . 14 15 Councilmember Marks observed that this ordinance directs the 16 City to look into how people compost and requires that drain 17 tile not be connected into the sanitary sewer lines . 18 19 He questioned whether property owners are aware of the full 20 impact this ordinance may have, especially in the case of new 21 homeowners . He also feels the ordinance is more intrusive than 22 others and that people may not be understanding of that fact . 23 24 Councilmember Wagner recalled this ordinance was to be 25 included in the next edition of the City newsletter . He suggested that the nature of the ordinance be included as an explanation. 29 Motion by Fleming, second by Wagner to approve the second 30 reading of Ordinance No . 1992-009 being an ordinance relating 31 to inspection and licensing of apartment buildings and housing 32 and maintenance, amending the St . Anthony 1973 Code of 33 Ordinances by amending Section 310 : 00 and by adding a new 34 Section 355: 00 35 36 Motion carried unanimously 37 38 39 The City Manager advised that all of the recommended changes 40 will be incorporated into the ordinance for its third reading 41 and adoption . 42 43 44 C .

Larry Hamer and • Dick Johnson have been very helpful. Curt Londroche, the volunteer coordinator for the Haunted House suggested that 1 write to you regarding the placement of a banner at the corner of Silver Lake Road and 37th Avenue N.E. The banner would be placed on Apache Plaza property. We would also like to use a spotlight at the site from Friday, October 23, through Saturday, October 31, 1.992. The light would help in the promotion of the House. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience. Warm regards, Scott L. Caswell Director of Development Campaign for Healthier Babies SLC/mw STAFF REPORT DATE: October 13, 1992 TO: Mayor & Councilmembers FROM: Thomas D. Burt, City Manager SUBJECT: 1993 Budget I am pleased to submit the 1993 budget to the Council. The budget is balanced and represents the needs of each department to continue to provide the services to residents of St. Anthony at the most efficient cost as possible. The attached pages outline and explain the changes in each program budget. Also, the 1992 salaries of each position are attached. However, I have not indicated the 1993 wages as labor agreements have not been reached with the three unions. The present budget format was established in 1980 when the City began using an outside computer service. The service was limited on information it could provide and so created the new format. Since we have now computerized our office we are capable of providing more information and still keep the format easy to understand. Staff would like to prepare a draft of the new proposed format for the Council's review. If the new format is acceptable, we will present it at the budget hearings in December. The proposed 1993 budget is up $102,360 or 4.9% from the 1992 budget. These increases are due to sales tax, inflation, and proposed wage increases. Each department has closely examined the line items of their budgets and have presented conservative cost increases. It is with their cooperation that our goal of providing the maximum service possible with limited resources can be accomplished. • • STAFF REPORT DATE: October 8, 1992 TO: Thomas D.

Indeed I would consider it an honor to be able to serve my community in such a capacity. Because I manage my own business, it would be helpful if during the first committee meeting all meeting dates for the coming year are established. This would allow me to definitively set aside the selected dates and not miss any meetings. I have attached a copy of my resume for your information. Please contact me regarding the first sting and thank you for this opportunity. Si er ly, Martin R. Lunde, PE attach: resume ' cc: file My name is Scott Benik. I am twenty years old and I gave lived in the City of Saint Anthony for fifteen years. Currently, I attend the University of Minnesota as a sophomore. My field of study is Environmental Engineering and I am planning on a Biology or Political Science minor. I am very interested in the state of the environment and doing my part to preserve it; That is why I am pleased that Saint Anthony has set up the environmental quality/recycling committee . Being a part of this council will be a terrific way for me to do my part to preserve the quality of our lives and of our environment . There are a couple of topics that I am truly concerned about . The ground water quality is vital for a community. With better quality of water, the benefits to the city will be numerous. Guidelines to ensure the quality of the water, well into the future, is something I would like to focus on as a member of this committee. Another main concern should be to educate both the young and old on how fragile and important the environment is. Offering education as part of the curriculum at both the elementary and secondary levels should be an essential goal of this committee. Change begins with education. This committee could accomplish a lot of needed tasks . As a part of this group, I feel I have a lot of ideas, enthusiasm, and dedication that could help the state of the environment and make this committee a success .

AND COOLIDGE STREET N.E. Dear Mr. Burt: Thanks so much for the opportunity to submit a proposal on the above project. As you can see we have skipped the fancy bound books listing our experience, capabilities, etc. because we are working for you now, and therefore, you know what we can do. We have previously forwarded an agreement for services to Mr. Larry Hamer and that document is the basis for this proposal. In looking at the work involved for the land changes, we have approached our proposal on the basis that the entire site area would be platted. We believe this approach to be the most cost effective and will provide for cleaner titles for the affected properties. We have structured our scope of work below to match our other proposal, at your request, but you will not that many of the items listed would not be normally separat- ed. For example: we would normally do boundary and topography work at the same time.to save money. In addition, we have highlighted specific items in parenthesis that we believe are important for a complete job that may or may not be in the other proposal. SCOPE OF WORK COST 1 . Boundary & topographic survey (5 parcels). $4,200 (includes 2 lots for road easement acquisition) 2. Calculate new road alignment and prepare easement $2,300 descriptions and exhibits for acquisition, vacation and deeding of land to adjacent property owners. (includes staking easements in field for observation) 1959 SLOAN PLACE, SUITE 200, ST.

Permits --- (included in item #6, above) 8. Construction estimating and bidding --- (included in item #9, below) 9. Contract administration and inspection $9,000 • 10. Construction staking $3,000 Total (not to exceed) engineering cost $36,500 We have made the following assumptions in preparing this proposal: 1 . No soil borings will be necessary. 2. Field construction testing will be included in the construction bid documents to be performed by the contractor. 3. No public meetings are included. However, informal meetings with staff and property owners is included (6 meetings-total). 4. Survey work will be completed prior to snow season. 5. Inspection is part time per our draft agreement for services. 6. Costs are included to provide bomanite cross walk on Kenzie Terrace. 7. Pahl Avenue N.E., Coolidge St. N.E. and 27th Avenue N.E. are not proposed for overlay or reconstruction in the next 10 years per the Braun Intertec pavement management report, dated February, 1992. Proposal - Street Relocation September 11, 1992 Page 3 8. No feasibility study is required. 9. Costs for project will not be assessed. 10. No costs are included for a traffic signal at'Kenzie Terrace. Our preliminary review would lead us to believe that a signal would not be.justified. 11 . Road pavement sections will match existing. We would propose to complete the above tasks on the following schedule. Boundary and topography survey October 5-October 9, 1992 Acquisition, vacation and deed documents October 12,-October 23, 1992 Plat documents: Preliminary October 12-October 23, 1992 Final November 2-November 13, 1992 Contract documents October 12-November 13, 1992 • Construction 1993 The dates are not as important as the time required to complete each phase. We can adjust the schedule to meet your needs. For your information, we have estimated the costs for th public improvements as iden- tified on the concept plan you provided to.us at $150,000, not including a traffic signal at Kenzie Terrace.
