COMMUNITY FORUM. 15 Verna Woodridge, Kensington Homes, indicated she heard a rumor that the police and 16 fire department were going to be gone shut down. She questioned if this was true. 17 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated this was only a rumor and noted the Council would be 18 addressing these issues within the budget discussion at this meeting. 19 20 V. ACTION ITEMS. 21 A. Consent A eg nda 22 Motion by Sparks to approve the Consent Agenda as presented. Said Consent Agenda 23 consisted of: 24 1. Licenses and Permits. 25 2. Claims. 26 3. Resolution 01-072 relating to deferment of Special Assessments for 2001 street 27 projects. 28 Motion carried unanimously. 29 B. Resolution 01-071 30 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated he was extremely proud to see this item before the Council 31 for their approval. Rosemary Franzese, Suburban Hennepin Parks Commissioner, stated 32 she has been working on this item for two years with the Salvation Army to acquire this City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 2 1 property and was now seeking Council's consent. 2 Jeff Brauchle, Legal Counsel, stated there will be a closing on this site within 30 days. 3 He indicated environmental tests need to be completed before closing can occur. He 4 indicated this recreational site is an added bonus to the Suburban Hennepin Parks 5 District. He noted the added open space will be a treasure for all. 6 Councilmember Thuesen asked for a time line for this site to be at Met Council for 7 funding. Mr. Brauchle stated he is prepared to go forward with funding and will be 8 seeking reimbursement from Met Council. 9 Councilmember Hodson indicated he has heard numerous questions on when the site 10 would be open for visits. Mr. Brauchle stated the vision of the Park's District is to open 11 up this open space, but indicated this is uncertain as the master plan would need to be 12 completed before work could commence. He estimated nine months before the master 13 plan would be completed. 14 Councilmember Hodson questioned if Hennepin County has any other parks with joint 15 county residences, as this park will be, between Ramsey and Hennepin County. Mr. 16 Brauchle reviewed the numerous parks that are owned jointly between Hennepin County 17 with Anoka, Carver, Ramsey, and Scott counties. 18 Councilmember Horst asked if there was any involvement with Ramsey County to date 19 and asked if the park would be on a no-fee basis. Ms. Franzese stated she has had no 20 dealings with Ramsey County to date. Mr. Brauchle indicated there would be no fees to 21 enter the park by bike or walking and noted the park would only be open from dawn until 22 dusk. He stated the only fee charged to park patrons would be a modest parking fee to 23 raise revenues to support park maintenance. 24 Mayor Cavanaugh noted he had no objection to the parking fee and stated he did not 25 want to get involved with setting fees with Ramsey County or Hennepin County. He 26 thanked the Salvation Army for their many years of being a good neighbor and stated he 27 was looking forward to many years of open space enjoyment at the new park. 28 Councilmember Thuesen thanked Douglas Bryant for his work on the acquisition of this 29 property. 30 Motion by Hodson to approve Resolution 01-071 granting the City of St. Anthony's 31 consent for the Suburban Hennepin County Regional Park District's acquisition of the 32 Salvation Army Camp Property as presented. 33 Motion carried unanimously 34 C. Consider Bid Award for Central Park Project 35 City Manager Morrison indicated Bob Kost and Carol Jindra were present to review this City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 3 1 item with the Council. Bob Kost, URS Corporation, indicated there was a bid opening 2 for Central Park on August 7, 2001 for a second time, after revisions were made to the 3 first bid'. Mr. Kost noted the estimates were around$1,600,000 with Veit& Company 4 coming in as the low bidder. 5 Mr. Kost indicated along with the park redevelopment,the City Hall would be receiving 6 an irrigation system at a fee of$28,100. He noted it is the Park Commission's 7 recommendation to approve the bid to Veit& Company. 8 Councilmember Horst stated $1,000,000 was originally budgeted for the park 9 redevelopment and asked if the $625,000 tax abatement would still be available. He 10 indicated his understanding was that this would be approximately half of the original 11 estimate. City Manager Morrison noted this was news to him as the City has an 12 agreement with the school district for these funds. He indicated he was under the 13 impression the school district would be providing these funds and noted he would need to 14 check with the school district on this item in conjunction with Springsted. 15 Councilmember Horst asked how the abatement funds worked. Mayor Cavanaugh stated 16 the school is on the hook for these funds as it is not TIF funding. 17 Councilmember Horst stated it was his understanding the $250,000 general fund reserves 18 were meant to be used as rainy day funds. He indicated additional funding from the 19 County was being lost and stated using these funds may not be the wisest decision at this 20 time. 21 Councilmember Sparks asked if there were contingent funds within the budget for rainy 22 day issues. Mayor Cavanaugh indicated the budget has approximately $900,000 in its 23 budget for overages within the budget. 24 Councilmember Horst indicated all available funds were being used from the water 25 filtration fund to fund the park and tha this was a high price for the City to pay. He 26 added that the City Manager identified these funds as spendable funds, which means it 27 can be removed.from the fund without damaging the principal. City Manager Morrison 28 stated this was not a correct statement, as the original principle would not be touched and 29 that only interest would be taken from this fund to be used for the park improvements. 30 Councilmember Horst asked if there were other sources of money available for Central 31 Park. City Manager Mornson stated $1.2 million was put into the City Hall and $500,000 32 into the Silver Lake bridge project just recently, which makes additional funding sources 33 unavailable at this time. 34 Councilmember Horst stated, it was his opinion, if the Council moves forward with this 35 item the City would be spending down its reserves without any way of replenishing them. 36 City Manager Morrison indicated the City has taken on numerous projects in the past 37 several years and stated future projects will be able to be taken on as funding allows. He City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 . Page 4 1 explained the City could always assume debt if additional funding was needed. 2 Councilmember Horst noted he was not in favor of spending all of the City's reserve 3 funding on this one project as the City may need these funds in the near future. He 4 indicated the project should be pared down and still allow for a nice facility. 5 Councilmember Thuesen thanked Councilmember Horst for his comments, but stated 6 numerous compromises have been made on this site and stated he was pleased with the 7 results at this time. 8 Motion by Sparks to approve Resolution 01-071 awarding the bid for the redevelopment 9 of Central Park to Veit& Company in the amount of$1,689,862 as presented. 10 4-1 (Horst opposed) Motion carried 11 VI. REVIEW ITEMS 12 A. Review 2002 Budget and Tax Lew. 13 Mayor Cavanaugh introduced the 2002 Budget and Tax Levy. He handed out a copy of 14 the new state legislature policies. Mayor Cavanaugh reviewed the items that would 15 affect the City and local school districts. He indicated he is not aware of the affects it 16 will have on the school district as each City is unique. 17 Mayor Cavanaugh explained the real significance for the City of St. Anthony will be in 18 property tax relief, for all homes valued over$76,000. He noted this would continue 19 through 2004,which would affect the budgeting of the Council over the next several 20 years. 21 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated the legislature would phase out valuation so that in six years 22 all property owners would be paying the fair market price of their home. He noted the 23 legislature is eliminating HACA Funding in the amount of$350,000 which is a major 24 state aid cut for the City. 25 Mayor Cavanaugh noted levy limits have been placed on City governments to control 26 how much each City can spend. He indicated with less revenues coming in,this would 27 be difficult for each municipality. Mayor..Cavanaugh noted there would be no truth in 28 taxation meetings this year either because of the late legislative sessions. 29 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated TIF funding has been greatly decreased which creates great 30 problems for future redevelopment of Apache Plaza. He stated the Council now has 31 severe restrictions on expenditures with the $350,000 cut from City revenues, which was 32 roughly 10%of total revenues. Mayor Cavanaugh stated he feels this is going to be a 33 trend over the next several years. 34 Mayor Cavanaugh asked staff to review the budget and noted Council would not be City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 5 1 voting on this item until the next meeting. City Manager Mornson noted all department 2 heads were in attendance for questions. He explained there was still a large amount of 3 uncertainty within the budget, as revenue amounts are still coming in from the . 4 Department of Revenue. 5 City Manager Mornson indicated the budget was incrementally increase for all services 6 offered in 2001 with no new services being proposed for 2002, as the property tax reform 7 would not allow for this. He noted staff recommends a budget in the amount of 8 $3,626,500 just $106,625 over the 2001 budget. 9 City Manager Mornson indicated no additional staff would be added at this time and he 10 reviewed all other items that would be eliminated or reduced over 2002. He noted he is 11 proposing a 3% increase in staff s income for 2002. 12 City Manager Mornson noted the City is limited to 10%of a tax levy per year at this 13 time. He stated that because HACA has been taken away from the cities a one time 14 increased tax levy is being allowed by the State. City Manager Mornson explained 15 property owners are to see a decrease in property taxes over 2002 but noted after 2002, 16 there is a greater level of uncertainty. 17 Councilmember Sparks asked why there was such uncertainty in 2003. City Manager 18 Mornson noted it was his understanding that the State would not be paying local portions 19 of referendums so residents of the community would be responsible for 100% of 20 referendums. He indicated this would greatly affect local property taxes. 21 City Manager Mornson indicated he feels numerous cities are going to gain negative 22 press for the increase in the tax levy even though revenues have been decreased. He 23 reviewed the fire, police, utility, park and city hall budgets for 2002. City Manager 24 Mornson reviewed several options for the Council to use current cash available to pay for 25 capital projects in 2002. He indicated this decision does not have to made at this time, 26 but noted this money could be made available for future projects. 27 City Manager Mornson stated the future of the Stonehouse would need to be made. He 28 reviewed a letter from the Finance Director with regard to Truth in Taxation hearings. 29 City Manager Mornson stated it was the wishes of the Mayor to hold some form of a 30 public hearing for the public to review the budget and make comments. 31 City Manager Mornson noted August 28`h would be the next budget meeting. He then 32 reviewed the goals of the City staff for 2001 and noted they were on track. City Manager 33 Mornson reviewed the General Fund Budget amount for 2002 being$3,626,500 a 3.03% 34 increase over 2001, with the Tax Levy of$2,202,354, a 24.89% increase. 35 City Manager Mornson reviewed the decreases in intergovernmental revenues and noted 36 how expenditures were panning out for 2002. He stated roughly 61% of the General 37 Fund revenues were from the tax levy with police taking roughly 29.4%of the City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 6 1 expenditures. City Manager Morrison compared the revenues from 2001 with regard to 2 funds available for 2002. He indicated the expenditures between the two years were 3- relatively the same. City Manager Mornson broke down the levy limit calculations for 4 2002. He noted there was a$438,879 increase over last year. 5 Councilmember Hodson thanked staff for their work on this year's budget and noted the 6 difficulty staff had with meeting new State requirements. He cautioned the City from 7 cutting any current services as residents have come to expect a high level of service from 8 the police, fire, etc. 9 Councilmember Horst noted he was pleased with staff's ability to balance this budget 10 with all the changes mandated by the State. He indicated all services key to operate the 11 City were being maintained at the same level and explained he would be against limiting 12 any of these services. 13 Councilmember Sparks questioned if public works was adequately funded. She stated 14 the City's ability to manage the turf and holding ponds within the City could be a concern 15 with the proposed redevelopment of Central Park on a limited 2002 budget. 16 Councilmember Sparks reviewed several pictures of holding ponds throughout the City 17 that are unsightly. She questioned if the 20'02 budget addressed the increase in public 18 works services that would be needed for Central Park. City Manager Morrison stated an 19 irrigation system would be installed at Central Park to assist in the maintenance of the 20 green space. He noted the holding ponds are a work in progress and noted seven or eight 21 holding ponds have been addedg to the City within the last few years which has increased 22 the public works responsibilities. 23 Councilmember Sparks reviewed the items kept out of the budget for 2002 and asked 24 why $80,000 was cut from the public works department. City Manager Mornson noted 25 each department was asked to make cuts and this was their determination. 26 Councilmember Hodson stated Central Park will be under construction next year which 27 will allow for the public works department to focus on blighted sites within the City 28 before taking on the maintenance of Central Park in early 2003. 29 Councilmember Thuesen stated all yards throughout the City are dry this year with weeds 30 flourishing. He indicated with an irrigation system at Central Park he feels blighted 31 parcels will be a non-issue. Councilmember Thuesen stated this may not be a funding 32 issue, but rather a method or policy on maintenance that the public works could review. 33 Mayor Cavanaugh noted he felt this budget should have been dead on arrival and noted 34 he does not take lightly to cutting reserve funding. He indicated the budget is not 35 balanced at this time and is up roughly 7%, with the use of reserve funds to cover 36 increased expenditures. Mayor Cavanaugh stated he felt the increase in the budget 37 should be 0%. He stated the 25%tax levy increase does not meet his approval and noted City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 7 1 he would not be in favor of approving the budget as submitted. 2 Councilmember Thuesen stated the City would be playing the shell game with.the State 3 as funding has been taken from the City and given to the State.- He noted all programs 4 need to continue as is and noted the budget was only increasing 3% overall. 5 Mayor Cavanaugh stated the residents would be affected the most by this levy to 6 maintain the same level of services. He indicated the fire department budget has not been 7 fully addressed with this budget with new State requirements. He explained the model 8 has been broken because the typical sources of revenues have been altered and are now 9 expected to be collected from the residents. Mayor Cavanaugh indicated he felt there 10 should be no more than a 10% levy and noted he feels the Council may have to review 11 how they provide services. 12 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated the City would not thrive in the future with no surplus 13 funding left after'the years' end. He explained the City would not be able to build 14 reserves if this is the case. Mayor Cavanaugh advised staff to revise this budget and 15 report back to the Council. 16 Councilmember Hodson noted he disagreed with the Mayor's comments and noted each 17 City is having difficulty with the regulations this year and stated he does not want to see 18 services cut from the budget. He indicated he understood that services would not be 19 added, but stated in the future other funding sources could besought to build reserves and 20 to increase services provided to the residents. 21 Mayor Cavanaugh questioned why the $112,000 in budget reserves was being used at an 22 administrative level. He indicated he felt the use of these funds was not allowable as 23 future needs may require these funds. City Manager Morrison stated this fund was 24 created from surpluses in administrative funding. He indicated these funds are being used 25 to assist in expenditures and rioted the tax levy at 25%would be a one time high to help 26 the City adjust for the loss of HACA and LGA State Aid Funding. 27 Councilmember Thuesen stated he feels this budget was reasonable and stated he felt the 28 services provided would be similar to 2001 with only a minor incremental increase. 29 Mayor Cavanaugh stated he felt the increase was outrageous and he noted he would not 30 support it at this time. He explained he felt the Council could do better for the residents. 31 Mayor Cavanaugh noted the City has residents on fixed incomes that would not be able 32 to handle the sizeable increase. He indicated he felt the staffing of the City needs to be 33 addressed. 34 Councilmember Thuesen stated he feels staff is providing high quality services to the 35 residents at this time and noted a cut in their fees would not increase their level of 36 service. He indicated he did not like the Mayor questioning staffs level of efficiency for 37 the funding they are provided. City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 8 1 Councilmember Sparks questioned if the $112,000 budget reserves could not be used for 2 2002. City Manager Morrison stated he feels it is in the best interest of the City's to use 3 these funds to prevent cuts in other areas such as personnel. He indicated if the Council 4 is against using these funds, they could advise staff to redraft the budget and report back. 5 Mayor Cavanaugh stated he would be in favor of not using the $112,000 along with 6 providing additional cuts in the budget to reduce the tax levy. 7 Councilmember Thuesen and Councilmember Hodson stated they would not be in favor 8 of this suggestion as they would like to see the same level of services maintained for the 9 residents. 10 Councilmember Sparks noted the residents would not be able to truly see the changes in 11 the budget until next year, which makes this budgeting cycle very difficult. She 12 indicated she would be willing to pass this budget as is to maintain the same level of 13 services, but noted she was leery of the residents' response. 14 Mayor Cavanaugh noted a change in residential tax rates from 30%to 38% should make 15 the residents stand up and take notice. He indicated he wants to see the budget revised 16 but noted there was not support from the Council at this time. 17 VII. INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS. 18 City Manager Mornson noted the Minneapolis Fire Department has submitted a proposal 19 to provide services to the City of St. Anthony as early as January 1, 2002. He noted the 20 fire union opposes this change, but asked that the Council allow the Minneapolis Fire 21 Department to present their proposal at the Council's next meeting. 22 City Manager Mornson recommended a firm provide the City with an independent 23 summary of the services that could be provided by the City of Minneapolis versus the 24 current services. He explained this would allow the Council to compare the two in an 25 unbiased manner. City Manager Mornson indicated this item was not solicited but 26 brought to the City from the Minneapolis Fire Department. 27 Mayor Cavanaugh asked for the wishes of the Council. 28 Councilmember Horst noted he does not want to hear from the Minneapolis Fire 29 Department. He stated the residents are willing to pay extra for quality services and 30 indicated he would not be in favor of switching from the current arrangement. 31 Councilmember Sparks asked for the wishes of staff. City Manager Mornson stated this 32 item could be heard without an independent survey completed. Councilmember Hodson 33 and Councilmember Thuesen concurred with this suggestion. 1 34 The Council agreed to hear the proposal knowing full well this was not the wishes of the 35 Council at this time. 10 City Council Study Session Minutes August 14, 2001 Page 9 1 Councilmember Thuesen asked that staff provide the Council with rough numbers on the 2 tax savings from the State next year with the proposed City increases. City Manager 3 .Morrison noted he could provide the Council with some preliminary numbers. 4 City Manager Morrison indicated there would be a joint meeting with the Council and 5 School Board to discuss building needs on Monday, October 29, 2001 at 7:00 p.m. He 6 noted funding needs would also be discussed. 7 City Manager Morrison noted a community survey was discussed at a goals session 8 between staff. He indicated the last City survey was done in 1998 and noted there would 9 be funding available in the cable fund to cover the expense. He asked that the Council 10 review the previous survey and come up with questions that should be addressed. 11 The Council advised staff to move forward with the survey and place this item on the 12 next meetings agenda. 13 XIII.

COMMUNITY FORUM. 19 Mayor Cavanaugh invited residents in the audience to speak to the Council on items that are not on the 20 regular agenda. 21 Resident Steven Poole, of 270129"Avenue Northeast, came forward and presented a few photos to 22 the Council of some of the work that has been done on his property. He expressed his sincere 23 unhappiness with the work. 24 Mr. Poole indicated that the construction company has decided to take a jackhammer to the driveway 25 a second time and then re-pour it. He stated the sod that was laid was atrocious, and very 26 unprofessionally done. Mr. Poole added that the job was getting done, but at a very slow-pace which 27 had him frustrated. 28 Todd Hubmer, WSB, stated that they were aware of Mr. Poole's concerns, and are taking the 29 necessary steps to repair the damage incurred by the landscaping company. He added that other 30 residents in Mr. Poole's neighborhood have issues with their sod, and indicated that next spring they 31 will be laying new sod at which time the project is anticipated to be complete. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 12 August 28, 2001 Page 2 1 Mayor Cavanaugh urged Mr. Hubmer to continue working on the project until it is satisfactorily 2 completed. 3 VII. CONSENT AGENDA. 4 Councilmember Horst made reference to several errors in the Study Session minutes, and requested the 5 following revisions: 6 Page 1, line 31: "Hennepin County Parks Commissioner"to read, "Suburban Hennepin Parks 7 Commissioner" and corrected throughout the minutes. 8 Page 3, line 8: change 11$1,600,000" to read, "$1,000,000". 9 Page 3, line 24: "everything was being taken out..."to read, "all available funds were being used from 10 the water filtration fund to fund the park and that this was too high a price for the City to pay. He 11 added that the City Manager identified these funds as spendable funds, which means it can be removed 12 from the fund without damaging the principal." 13 Page 9, lines 1 through 4 to be struck from the minutes. 14 Mayor Cavanaugh requested that the August 14, 2001 City Council Study Session Minutes be 15 removed from the Consent Agenda. 16 Motion by Thuesen to approve the-Consent Agenda.

PUBLIC HEARINGS. 21 None. 22 IX. REPORTS FROM COMMISSION AND STAFF. 23 A. Planning Commission - August 21, 2001. 24 1. Resolution 01-076, re: Shaw, Side Yard Variance, 2835 Roosevelt Street. 25 Planning Commissioner Hanson reviewed the details of the variance request with the Council, 26 and mentioned that the Shaws were present to answer any questions. 27 Commissioner Hanson stated some of the reasons for which the Shaws were requesting the 28 variance are that the home is surrounded on three sides by a street, remaining in the home into 29 retirement, location near a local church, and other parking issues. 30 Commissioner Hanson indicated that the Planning Commission acknowledged their desire-for 31 residents to improve the housing stock in the City of St. Anthony, which played a role in the 32 decision to approve the variance request. ' City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 13 August 28, 2001 Page 3 1 Councilmember Horst stated it appeared as though Mr. Shaw was able to use a smaller plan,if 2 necessary, and asked if the resolution before them reflected the smaller plan. Mr. Shaw 3 indicated that the.resolution before them did not reflect the smaller plan, but he could reduce the 4 plans to a twenty-foot front. 5 Considering the age of the home and the numerous other homes in the City that were built 6 similarly and around the same time, Councilmember Thuesen asked Commissioner Hanson if he 7 thought that the Planning Commission would see several more variance requests of this nature. 8 Commissioner Hanson indicated that he thought they probably would see more residents 9 wanting to add a second garage. 10 Motion by Sparks to adopt Resolution 01-076,re: Shaw Side Yard.Variance for 2835 t t Roosevelt Street. - 12 Motion carried unanimously. 13 B. General engineering projects update (Todd Hubmer, WSB & Associates Inc., will be present). 14 Todd Hubmer came forward to update the Council. He referred to the twenty-one applicants they had 15 .received for the City's Flood Relief Grant Program-for 2001. He indicated that nine of those applicants 16 were approved for participation in the program. Mr. Hubmer stated that they would be working with 17 each resident and their contractors to meet the completion date of December 31, 2001. 18 Councilmember Thuesen asked for a couple of examples of some of the projects that they are working 19 on. Mr. Hubmer indicated that there have been several cases of backyard drainage swells between 20 homes which has seeped into foundations, windows and homes. He indicated that the applications for 21 the 2002 program would be available next March. 22 Mr. Hubmer reviewed the project that was happening on the 291h Avenue Street re-construction. He 23 indicated that the project consisted of repairing/replacing sod.and driveways that were damaged during 24 construction. He indicated that new signs were in the process of being made for the entire corridor. 25 He stated that the project was essentially complete as it sits today. 26 Councilmember Sparks asked if there would be a_crosswalk from Crestview to the park. Mr. Hubmer 27 indicated that there would be a stamped concrete crosswalk at Crestview to the south side. 28 Mr. Hubmer continued that the 2001 street re-construction project was'moving along well. He 29 referred to a few of the projects that were taking place throughout the City, and their current.status. 30 Mr. Hubmer referenced the pond construction and said that it was progressing. He stated that they 31 expected the excavation work to be completed within the next couple of weeks. He added that tree 32 planting in portions of the pond began today and would continue throughout the month of September. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 14 August 28, 2001 Page 4 I Councilmember Thuesen referred back to the re-construction project on 29`h Avenue Street and asked 2 if there were different qualities of sod available. Mr. Hubmer said that he was unaware that there were 3 different qualities of sod. 4 Councilmember Thuesen asked about the black dirt that is being placed under the sod. Mr. Hubmer 5 stated that they have requested that at least four inches of topsoil be placed before the sod is laid down. 6 Councilmember Sparks echoed Councilmember Thuesen's concerns of poor quality topsoil. Mr. 7 Hubmer reviewed the one-year warranty that they have with the landscaping company, which has the 8 landscaping company returning to replace the sod next spring. 9 Mr. Hubmer continued with an update on the 2002 Street Re-construction Feasibility Study. He 10 indicated that there would be discussion concerning the under-grounding of the private utilities, cable I t television, electrical and,telephone services and what the associated costs would be. 12 Mr. Hubmer reviewed the status of the Well-Head Protection Plan. He indicated it has been mandated 13 by the State of Minnesota for the City of St. Anthony to be completed. He added that there should not 14 be a tremendous amount of costs for the City regarding the Plan under phase one, as Ramsey County 15 wants to complete most of the work for the City of-St. Anthony. t6 Mr. Hubmer referred to the plans for construction of Silver Point Park. He indicated that they are 17 addressing the concerns they had last year with hockey and other draining issues and would be 18 presenting a preliminary grading plan to the Parks Commission at their next meeting. Mr. Hubmer 19 stated that they would hope to put the proposal out for bid to be brought back to the City Council by 20 October for their consideration. 21 Mr. Hubmer stated that they are revising some of the information contained in the Sanitary Sewer 22 Education Program. He added that they anticipate the next area of education to be from 291h Avenue 23 to 35`h Avenue and from Stinson Boulevard to Silver Lake Road. He added that the Program would 24 be looking at sump-pump removal and drain tile removal. 25 Councilmember Thuesen referred to televising of part of the sanitary system and some of the sanitary 26 sewer back-up problems that they had this past spring. Mr. Hubmer indicated that they reviewed the 27 televised data with the League of Minnesota Cities and said that it did not show that there was any 28 blockage in the line, nor were there maintenance issues that could cause the sort of back-ups that 29 occurred. t. 30 Mr. Hubmer added that it was high run-off events, or storm events where they were getting those 31 back-ups, and indicated that the system was not designed to handle those types of run-off events. - 32 C. Presentation of Minneapolis proposal for fire services to St. Anthony (Minneapolis Fire Chief 33 will be present). City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 15 August 28, 2001 Page 5 1 Minneapolis Fire Chief Forte introduced the staff that accompanied him this evening. He indicated that 2 he was'present to share a concept that has the City of Minneapolis providing fire protection for the City 3 of St. Anthony. 4 Fire Chief Forte explained that the City of Minneapolis is faced with budget cuts and it was felt that 5 having the Minneapolis Fire Department service to St. Anthony could be of benefit to both 6 communities. 7 Fire Chief Forte continued that the concept suggested that Minneapolis provide the service out of 8 Station 15, which is approximately one and a half minutes from St. Anthony's city limits. He added that 9 there has been talk about closing Station 15 due to low number of calls. 10 Fire Chief Forte indicated that the cost to the city would be $400,000 annually for three years and 11 could possibly add another two years for a total of five years for$400,000 per year. For future years, 12 increases would be based on salary and benefit adjustments from the union contracts. 13 Fire Chief Forte stated that if the City of Minneapolis were to provide fire services for the City of St. 14 Anthony, it would save the City of St. Anthony about $150,000-$200,000 per year. He continued 15 that the City of St. Anthony would also be able to decide what to.do with the fire equipment and fire 16 station. 17 Fire Chief Forte indicated that the City of Minneapolis Fire Department has one of the best response 18 times in the country, averaging three and a half minutes. He estimated that the average response time 19 for the City of St. Anthony, under the service of Minneapolis, would be a four to eight minute response 20 time. 21 Fire Chief Forte added that the City of Minneapolis could provide the City of St. Anthony with more 22 resources. He exemplified this by detailing the number of firefighters that arrive at the scene of the 23 various fire alarms. 24 Fire Chief Forte stated that the City of St. Anthony and Northeast Minneapolis have the worst 25 ambulance response time in the County. He added that if they combined services he would look at re- 26 constructing Station 15, and add an ambulance bay. 27 Councilmember Horst asked if St. Anthony would be the first to combine forces like this. Chief 28 indicated that they would be the first. 29 Councilmember Horst asked if the concept presented this evening would be a benefit to them, or simply 30 a loss of their services. Fire Chief Forte indicated he felt the only negative was that they would lose one 31 minute on response time, but the rest of the concept was to their advantage. 32 Fire Chief Forte reiterated that he had a great deal of respect for the firefighters of the City of St. 33 Anthony. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 16 August 28, 2001 Page 6 1 Councilmember Horst referred to the flyer that stated "What if you dialed 911 and no one came?" He 2 asked where the loyalties would lie between the two cities. Fire Chief Forte stated that was one of the 3 reasons that they have initiated mutual aid. He added that the cities of Minneapolis and St. Anthony 4 would be prioritized as one community. s Councilmember Horst referred to the union requirement that required more riders on the Fire Trucks 6 that they currently have. Fire Chief Forte stated that they could certainly meet those needs for the City 7 of St. Anthony. 8 Councilmember Sparks asked about the rumors that the Johnson Street Station would close if the 9 agreement did not go through. Fire Chief Forte indicated that was only a rumor and the Johnson Street 10 Station would not close. 11 Councilmember Thuesen referred to ambulatory response time in the City of St. Anthony being slower 12 than others, and asked if they would give them the ambulance bay regardless of the decision to combine 13 services. Fire Chief Forte indicated that there was no room to add on to the existing fire station at this 14 time right now, but additional funds would make enhancing that station possible. 15 Councilmember Thuesen asked if he-had the authority to put an ambulance bay in anyway. Fire Chief 16 Forte stated he was not in control of that, but an increase in his budget would help him use his influence 17 to get Hennepin County into the area and, hopefully, get the ambulance bay addition. 18 19 Councilmember Hodson referred to the response time, and stated he found the statistics difficult to 20 believe. Fire Chief Forte stated that the average range of four to eight minutes depended on how near 21 or far a residence was from the station. 22 Councilmember Hodson mentioned how critical those first three minutes can be in saving a life. 23 Councilmember Sparks referred to a some research she had done that discussed a"five minute point of 24 flash over," and asked for clarification of what that was. Fire Chief Forte stated that it meant a fire 25 could begin spreading to the contents of a room within five minutes. 26 Councilmember Sparks added that nine minute response times in the City of Minneapolis are scary. 27 Fire Chief Forte stated that the nine minute response time was the extreme, and once any community's 28 resources are overwhelmed by multiple fire alarms,the response time goes up. However, he added 29 that their average response time is three and a half minutes. 30 Councilmember Thuesen indicated that he would like to see Fire Chief Hewitt respond to the issue of 31 house fires on opposite sides of town, and how they would be addressed. 32 Fire Chief Hewitt indicated that the fire department in St. Anthony belong to various mutual aid groups 33 for response. He stated that, essentially, if they do not have the resources they call out to their other 34 mutual aid groups. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 17 August 28, 2001 Page 7 1 Mayor Cavanaugh referred to the three year relationship, and asked if Fire Chief Forte had checked 2 into the possibility of a permanent relationship. Fire Chief Forte stated that the concept of joining 3 services had not yet been discussed with their Mayor, therefore, he had not examined the possibility of 4 an eternal relationship. 5 Mayor Cavanaugh stated they are talking about a very small part of the issue for the City of St. 6 Anthony. He continued that fires are not their main call and seventy-five percent of all calls are non-fire 7 calls. . 8 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that Hennepin County trucks come with paramedics who can do more than 9 Emergency Medical Technicians(EMTs). He added that the City of St. Anthony was concerned with 10 the EMT response, and the residents felt that the local fire department exceeded their needs. 11 Fire Chief Forte indicated that the City of St. Anthony, if it remains independent, has a one minute 12 better response for all emergencies. 13 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that the additional minute response time, should they decide to join forces, 14 was very critical to the residents. 15 Councilmember Thuesen stated that they are not here to discuss ambulance service this evening. He 16 asked what it has to do with the decision to join forces with the City of Minneapolis. Mayor 17 Cavanaugh indicated that Councilmember Thuesen was the initiator of the issue. 18 19 Councilmember Thuesen added that he felt Mayor Cavanaugh was making ambulance service an issue 20 in order to get the residents to approve the,concept of joining services. He added that he felt the 21 ambulance service issue was entirely separate. 22 Resident John Mondati, 3420 Highcrest Road, stated that a friend passed away a year ago because 23 they did not get a quick enough response from the City of Minneapolis. He stated that he thought the 24 City of St. Anthony Fire Department deserves to be protected, as they are valuable people. 25 A Resident asked where the new station would be. Fire Chief stated that was to be determined. 26 A former resident of Minneapolis referred to the slow response times she received from the City of 27 Minneapolis. She wondered why they do not collectively have an ambulance with paramedics in St. 28 Anthony where they have the space to house a holding garage versus Johnson Street which is so 29 crammed. Fire Chief Forte concurred that the Johnson Street Fire House could not house a holding 30 garage. 31 Resident Diana Roadfeldt, 2924 Rankin, asked why the City of St. Anthony could not offer the City of 32 Minneapolis some services. She continued that would allow the City of Minneapolis to sell the station 33 on Johnson Street and build a new station in the City of St. Anthony. Ms. Roadfeldt indicated that the City Council Regular Meeting Minutes y� August 28, 2001 Page 8 t Fire Department is precious to their community, personal friends to many residents, and she did not 2 want to lose them. 3 Resident George Zahhos stated he served on the Council in 1959 and'1960. He stated if the Council 4 votes to do combine services, they would be doing a disservice to the community. He praised the 5 successes of the Fire Department for the trips that they have made to his home and the lives they have 6 saved. 7 Mr. Zahhos continued that he did not understand why the merits of their Fire Department were in 8 question at all, and pleaded with the Council that they follow the wishes of the constituents and vote 9 against the concept. 10 A Resident asked if the City of St. Anthony had the same issue under consideration with the City of I 1 Lauderdale years ago. He asked that the City Council do their homework before proceeding. 12 A Resident asked about the current response time in the City of St. Anthony. Councilmember Sparks 13 responded that it was two minutes, forty seconds. 14 A Resident requested more information regarding response times. Fire Chief Forte stated that he could 15 only respond for the City of Minneapolis. 16 Walter Hildebrandt, M.D., made reference to the remarkably quick medical response time in St. 17 Anthony. He asked why they would want to consider losing such an invaluable asset to their 18 community. 19 A Resident stated she had a recent injury where the St. Anthony medical team and Fire Department 20 responded in less than three minutes. She stated that the Emergency Medical Team took twenty-five 21 minutes. 22 Mayor Cavanaugh_dismissed Fire Chief Forte and staff and called upon City of St. Anthony Fire Chief 23 Hewitt. 24 Fire Chief Hewitt provided a history of himself to the Council. He stated that he has been in the fire 25 service field for twenty-five years and the thirty men and women who are on his staff today are the 26 finest he has ever had the privilege to work with. 27 28 Fire Chief Hewitt discussed the Emergency Services (EMS) that they provide. He indicated that the 29 Paramedic Service is provided by the Hennepin County Medical Center. He stated that a paramedic 30 is at the top of their line, and the nearest thing to a doctor. 31 Fire EMS: 32 • 16 EMTs and 14 First Responders City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 1.9 August 28, 2001 Page 9 t • Trained in EMS, CPR, cardiac arrest management, vehicle extrication,airway 2 management, technical rescue, ice and water rescue. 3 • SAFD are the First Responders to the community. 4 • HCMC ambulance provides paramedic and transport services. 5 6 Fire Chief Hewitt indicated that Fire Fighters are the first to come to the scene of an emergency. The 7 average response time is two minutes and 40 seconds. 8 9 Fire EMS: 10 • Firefighters supplement HCMC on critical care incidents. 11 • HCMC ambulance responds to all SAFD medical responses. 12 • Paramedics have the ability to provide drug therapy. 13 • 681 medical incidents in 2000- 72.6& of them were emergency medical events. 14 15 NFPA (National fire Protection Agency) 1720: 16 • Adopted May 2001. 17 • Is a deployment standard. 18 • Is not a mandate. 19 • Applies to volunteer departments, paid per call departments, combination 20 departments of career and paid per call, such as the Fire Department in the City 21 of St. Anthony. 22 • Final document has yet to be published. 23 • Four trained firefighters shall assemble on the scene before initiating as interior 24 structure attack. 25 • Once assembled, operations shall begin within two minutes, 90%of the time. 26 27 O.S.H.A 2 In/Out- This is a mandate. 28 • Four firefighters have to assemble on the scene prior to beginning as interior 29 attack. 30 • Two of the four have to remain outside as a rescue crew for the two that go in. 31 32 Fire Chief Hewitt indicated that the only time that O.S.H.A 2 in/out can be violated is when they are 33 told that there is someone in the house and needs immediate rescue, or if the fire is in its incipient stage. 34 Supplemental Firefighters: 35 • Public Works are not FF1 (Firefighter 101) trained except for two who have 36 been trained from other fire departments. 37 • Untrained Public Works personnel who do not have FF1 cannot be used as a 38 firefighter. 39 40 Supplemental Firefighters: 41 • Proposal would cost approximately$75,000 the first year and $37,000 each 42 year after. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 20 August 28, 2001 Page 10 1 0 The current firefighters receive no compensation for attending FF1 training. 2 • Our current firefighters do not receive compensation for just being available. 3 • Current department training budget was $4,500. 4 0 They have hired four recruits since April who are available during the day. 5 • They have mutual aid agreements with the surrounding communities. 6 • Columbia Heights and Fridley are available to respond automatically to 7 confirmed working structure fires. 8 • They are currently working with the City Manager to provide city employees to 9 become day firefighters. 10 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if they would abandon Public Works volunteer option for now. Fire Chief 1 t Hewitt said that was true. 12 Mayor Cavanaugh asked about the condition of the firehouse. 13 A Resident stated that members of the community were here to speak, not listen to the status of the 14 firehouse and statistics provided by Fire Chief Hewitt. 15 Mayor Cavanaugh interjected that he brought up a good point,but they never anticipated this type of 16 turnout when the Fire Chief for the City of Minneapolis agreed to come tonight. He continued by 17 saying that he wanted to hear about the condition of the firehouse because it is a concern for the 18 community. Mayor Cavanaugh added that he was aware of the majority's disposition, and he would 19 return the subject back to the Council shortly. 20 Fire Chief Hewitt advised that the state of the firehouse was poor. He indicated that there are two 21 firefighters who live there full time. He cited several reasons for which the firehouse needed dire 22 attention: small and dysfunctional, gear is stored near the diesel fumes (not O.S.H.A compliant), air 23 quality is terrible, carpet is bug infested, sewer backs up in the shower. 24 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that reports from-several engineers who have examined the firehouse echoed 25 the same technical concerns that Fire Chief Hewitt referenced. 26 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if there was any desire on behalf of the Council to pursue any further the 27 subject of joining services with the City of Minneapolis. 28 Councilmember Hodson thanked the residents for their presence and their comments, and stated that 29 he did not feel the need to continue any pursuit. 30 Councilmember Horst stated that he did not know of any other Fire Department that does the same 31 type of work as the Fire Department in the City of St. Anthony. He'added that discussing the=Fire 32 Department is just the "tip of the iceberg," and the Police Department and the Public Works 33 Department were next. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 21 August 28, 2001 Page 11 1 Councilmember Thuesen stated that he was pleased that the proposal came up this evening and that the 2 Mayor added"fuel to the fire." He added that he was happy to hear the community voice their 3 support, and asked the audience if they would be around to support them,with the necessary tools to 4 keep their Class A Fire Department. 5 Mayor Cavanaugh declared that joining services with the City of Minneapolis proposal was dead. He 6 stated that there appeared to be a willingness on the part of the community to invest in the 7 infrastructure. He added that he felt it was past time to put in a referendum and approve new buildings 8 for the City employees who are truly dedicated and hard-working. 9 10 Mayor Cavanaugh asked for residents to comment on their feelings regarding the proposed fire 11 services. 12 Resident John Delmonico stated that a few of his neighbors had heard rumors that the Mayor wanted to 13 join Police Forces with New Brighton. Mayor Cavanaugh explained that would not be happening. 14 A Resident stated that the Council needed to review the changes in tax laws and the various impacts #11 that it will have on the residents of the City of St. Anthony. 16 Mike Stockstead, President of Minnesota Professional Firefighters, stated he was there to be the voice 17 of firefighters and stated that the Council's concern over the medical aspect of this proposal was 18 forward thinking and he applauded them. He continued that a new law allows them to have paramedic 19 staffed versus EMT staffed rigs. Mr. Stockstead implored the Council to continue thinking that way. 20 A Resident asked if it was possible to combine the Fire Department and the Public Works Department 21 on the Foss Road property. Councilmember Horst stated that it has been discussed. 22 A Resident stated he wanted to admonish the Council for not prioritizing better. He believes that lives 23 are more important than city parks. 24 Dan McNulty, former resident who served on the Fire Department in St. Anthony, stated that 25 surrounding areas are amazed by the internal structure of the Fire Department of the City. He warned 26 them not to put all of their money into equipment, but in their personnel and their pensions. He 27 suggested that they work to retain the Public Works people and give them some incentive to stay. 28 A Resident commended the Council for their work. She stated that she was concerned that the City 29 not attempt to do everything at once in light of the changes in the tax laws. She urged some restraint on 30 the part of the Council. 31 Another Resident voiced her frustration regarding the tax returns. She stated that the schools-and the 32 cities will need that money back, and hoped that residents would understand and support them. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 22 August 28, 2001 Page 12 1 Dr. Walter Hildebrandt, another St. Anthony resident, stated that their first priority was with medical 2 attention, and hoped that the community would support them when they asked for it. 3 Resident Clarence Ranallo, President of the Kenzie Terrace Association, stated that he was urged by 4 the residents of Kenzie Terrace to come forward to request that the Council deny the proposal from the 5 City of Minneapolis. He added that he was pleased that they did just that. 6 7 Mr. Ranallo stated that the community has lost so much already, and they do not want to lose the Fire 8 Department. He identified other examples that had residents asking questions regarding TIF funds, and 9 an electronic sign. 10 Mayor Cavanaugh defended the actions of the Council stating that they are following a pattern that was 11 set down with acquiring the homes on Kenzie. He added that they cannot get everything done at once, 12 but if they do not start these things, it would come back at them later. 13 Mayor Cavanaugh asked the Council if they wanted to do anything on the Firehouse. 014 Councilmember Horst stated he felt that a new firehouse was a future need. 15 Councilmember Thuesen suggested that they discuss the next step with the issues surrounding the Fire 16 Department at the next City Council Study Session. 17 Councilmember Hodson stated that he would like to examine the costs and time line associated with the 18 Firehouse. 19 Mayor Cavanaugh called for a five-minute recess before the meeting continued. 20 D. Discussion of the Stonehouse operation. 21 City Manager Mike Morrison stated that the Council had made the Stonehouse property their number 22 one priority on their list of issues in January. He indicated that the City had approved Jim Prosser, 23 Ehlers and Associates, to examine the Stonehouse, its operations, and address the issue of keeping the 24 Stonehouse open. 25 Mr. Prosser indicated that they separated the on-sale from the off-sale because they are so different, 26 specifically examining the on-sale portion. He said that their primary issue to examine was whether they 27 should reinvest in the existing structure and operation. 28 Mr. Prosser reviewed the option of building a new On-Sale Restaurant, which consisted of constructing 29 a new 5,000 square foot restaurant on the current site with the city continuing to operate. He continued 30 that the costs and revenues were 8 follows: City Council Regular Meeting Minutes August 28, 2001 Page 13 t - $1,000,000 for building, furniture/fixtures and equipment. Since the site cannot support 2 a restaurant of this size and odd-sale retail, an additional $250,000 for land should be 3 considered. 4 - A restaurant of this size should produce approximately $1,250,000 to $1,500,000 5 gross revenues. 6 The Advantages: 7 - Allows continued revenues for Charitable gambling operations. 8 - Continued presence for on-sale operations. 9 The Disadvantages: 10 - Building needs to be replaced I 1 - Municipal operation of on-sale liquor store provides significant challenges including 12 public pefception, liquor liability, control and pricing. 13 - Current building conditions reflect poorly on city management. 14 Mr. Prosser reviewed other options, including leasing the site to charitable gambling operations for 15 development as on-sale restaurant (would require a referendum to split on and off sale operations). 816 The costs and revenues: 17 - No direct costs. 18 - Projected value property of$100,000+. 19 - Projected property tax $20,000 total and $5,000 City. 20 - Projected license revenue. (Fees not determined, would cover cost of control.) 21 - City expense reimbursement unchanged. 22 The Advantages: 23 - Allows continued operation of charitable gambling. 24 - Charitable gambling operations would be able to contract for operations management 25 with independent firm. 26 - Property would be taxable. 27 The Disadvantages: 28 - Charitable gambling operations may not be interested or capable of operating 29 restaurant. 30 - City would no longer directly control on-sale liquor operations. 31 - NFP operation of on-sale liquor store provides significant challenges including public 32 perception, liquor liability, control and pricing. 33 In summary, Mr. Prosser stated that it was extremely important for the City to have an idea of the- 34 profitability aspect. He stated that Ehlers and Associates does not think that the numbers truly reflect 35 the need to reinvest in the building. 36 Additional Findings: City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 24 August 28, 2001 Page 14 1 - The current Stonehouse on-sale restaurant is in need of replacement. No additional 2 capital investments should be made in the existing building. 3 - The Stonehouse cannot be considered to be profitable. Given its current condition it is 4 likely to be more unprofitable in the future. 5 - St. Anthony Village would be required to invest approximately$100,000 to 6 $1,250,000 for a new building to continue on-sale operations. 7 - Gross annual revenues of$1,250,000 to $1,500,000 will be required to service the 8 operation and debt. It is very difficult to sustain this level of sales in a highly competitive 9 market. 10 - The current site is too small to permit appropriate redevelopment for commercial uses 11 that include both on-sale and off-sale liquor sales. 12 - The primary financial function of the Stonehouse appears to be an outlet for charitable 13 gambling. 14 - Charitable gambling is projected to be at least as profitable at a new city-owned or 15 privately=owned on-sale restaurant (s). 16 Recommendations: 17 - Explore redevelopment of the Stonehouse site with off-sale liquor retail store as a 18 potential. 19 - Cease on-sale liquor store operations. 20 - Conduct referendum to permit municipal off-sale and private on-sale operations. 21 - Permit charitable gambling at restaurants serving liquor. 22 Alternate Recommendation: 23 - Consider a referendum to approve $1,000,000 to $1,250,000 to fund a new on-sale 24 liquor store. 25 Mr. Prosser indicated that the Stonehouse property was worth$100,000. 26 Councilmember Sparks asked what the consultants said about the location of the Stonehouse property 27 for a restaurant. Mr. Prosser-stated that restaurants like to be amidst a great deal of retail, and a high- 28 traffic area. 29 Councilmember Horst asked what type of redevelopment projects they see useful for the property. 30 Mr. Prosser stated that they see mixed use. Mr. Prosser indicated that there was strong support for 31 limited retail with a small restaurant pad and an off-sale liquor pad. He added that townhomes, 32 apartments, and daycare have all been mentioned as viable options. 33 Mr. Prosser stated that he was not recommending that they market the Stonehouse property at the- 34 $100,000 value, but that it was the amount that they could bank on. 35 Councilmember Horst asked if it was necessary to close the Stonehouse in order to get split liquor in 36 the City of St. Anthony. Mr. Mornson indicated that it was not. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 25 August 28, 2001 Page 15 1 Councilmember Sparks asked about putting the issue on the ballot for the November election. Mr. 2 Morrison stated that it would be difficult to get,a referendum in place in time for the November election. 3 Councilmember Thuesen stated he felt that they needed to discuss this further before he would be in 4 favor of placing the issue on the ballot. 5 Councilmember Horst stated that he did not want to go ahead with closing the Stonehouse without a 6 plan, which constitutes a referendum of some kind. 7 Councilmember Hodson referred to the struggling Park and Recreation Program which does not 8 appear to be getting better. 9 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that the cleared site has more promise than the Stonehouse site. Mr. Prosser 10 indicated his statement was true. 11 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that he would close the Stonehouse tomorrow if it were his business. He 12 continued that the building was done and they owe it to the community to shut down the Stonehouse 013 and clear the site for redevelopment. 14 Councilmember Thuesen agreed with the Mayor, with the exception of closing the Stonehouse 15 tomorrow. He feels a plan needs to be in place before they shut it down. 16 Councilmember Hodson asked Mike Larson about the space in the common area on Highway 88 for a 17 liquor store. Mr. Larson stated that the exposure at that location would be a great asset. 18 Councilmember Horst said he was most comfortable using the "band aid approach"until they have a 19 plan. 20 Mayor Cavanaugh asked Mr. Prosser if the Stonehouse was more than a"band aid"problem. Mr. 21 Prosser stated that, from a strictly financial standpoint, it does not make sense to reinvest in the 22 . Stonehouse. 23 Mayor Cavanaugh suggested that they keep the Stonehouse open until the end of the year. In the 24 meantime, a plan needs to be developed. 25 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that he did not feel that government had any place in the business of 26 charitable gambling. He stated that these types of stores need to have an owner, and collect property 27 taxes. 28 The Council deliberated over the Stonehouse, and returned to the idea of getting a liquor license 29 referendum on the November ballot. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes 26 August 28, 2001 Page 16 l Councilmember Sparks stated that a negative aspect of getting the referendum on the November ballot 2 is that it does not give the Council much time to educate the public on the issue. 3 Mr. Prosser stated they would need a minimum of ninety days to prepare for a referendum. 4 The Council agreed that a Special Election may be necessary. 5 Mr. Morrison stated that they will work with Ehlers and Associates to market the entire parcel of the 6 Stonehouse property, the off-sale property and the Firehouse. He indicated they would return in sixty 7 days with the type of suitors interested in the property. s X. GENERAL POLICY BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL. 9 A. Resolution 01-075, re: Adopt a 2002 lees. 10 Mr. Morrison referred to..the updated copy of Resolution 01-075 and stated that the difference is that I 1 they received their certified levy limits from the Department of Revenue, which were reduced by 12 $2,300. He stated that the proposed tax levy was $2,635,366. 13 Councilmember Thuesen referred to the elimination of HACA aid and stated that they needed to 14 educate residents on the ramifications of the tax levy. 15 Councilmember Hodson stated that he agreed with Councilmember Thuesen, and they need to hear 16 from the residents what services they want. He recommended that they go forward with.this 17 Resolution. 18 Councilmember Horst stated that property taxes would be lowered regardless of whether the City 19 adopts this levy, or any other levy. He added that the City portion has to go back up in order to make 20 for the money that the legislature took away. 21 Councilmember Thuesen stated that he was cautious to assume that property taxes will be decreasing, 22 as he has seen what the legislation has done to residents this year. 23 Councilmember Sparks stated she felt residents would complain about their property taxes in a few 24 years because they are confused and uninformed. She added that she was in favor of supporting the 25 tax levy at this time, but indicated that she thought it would come back to them needing to be 26 reassessed. 27 Mayor Cavanaugh stated he felt that the new tax legislation was the most mean-spirited thing that the 28 legislature could have done. He added that a community the size of St. Anthony was really up against 29 the levy because they do not have the tax capacity. - 30 Mayor Cavanaugh concluded that he thought Councilmember Sparks was correct, and that, in a couple 31 of years, the Council Chambers would be filled with unhappy and misled residents.

Examples of this would be the question of whether a city shall issue general obligation bonds where the issuance of the bonds must be approved by the voters and the question of whether a city shall issue on-sale liquor licenses. A special election may be ordered by the City Council on its own motion or upon a petition signed by a number of voters equal to 20% of the votes cast at the last City general election.

Special elections are conducted and the returns made in the same manner as the City's general election. Minnesota Statutes, Section 205.16 sets forth the requirements for the publication and positions of the notice of election and sample ballots and provides that at least 49 days prior to the election the clerk is to give written notice to the county auditor of the date of the election and the title and language for each ballot question to be voted on at the election.

I 51 MEMORANDUM TO: Michael Momson, City Manager FROM: Jerry Gilligan DATE: September 10, 2001 RE: Issuance of On-Sale Liquor Licenses The St. Anthony City Council has been reviewing the continued operation by the City of the City-owned Stonehouse and may consider calling a special election to submit to the voters of the City the question whether the City should be authorized to issue on-sale liquor licenses to hotels and restaurants. In connection with this request you have asked me to advise you with respect to certain questions regarding the holding of the special election and the issuance of on-sale liquor licenses by the City. Special Election Authorizing Issuance of On-Sale Liquor Since the City owns and operates municipal liquor stores, the issuance by the City of-on-sale liquor licenses is governed by Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.601. This statute provides that a city which owns and operates a municipal liquor store may issue on-sale liquor licenses to hotels, clubs and restaurants. However, the City may not issue licenses to a hotel or restaurant until authorized by voters of the City voting on the question at a special election called for that purpose. The issuance of licenses to clubs does not require voter approval. The special election may be ordered by the City Council on its own motion or is required to be held by the City upon receipt by the City of a petition signed by a number of voters equal to 20% of the votes cast at the last City general election. The special election may be held in conjunction with the general election or may be held on a date selected by the City Council, other than a date within 40 days after the state general election. The question on the issuance of the on-sale liquor licenses passes if it is approved by a majority of the voters voting on the question. Issuance of Licenses if Referendum is Approved If the issuance of on-sale licenses is approved by the voters, and the City Council determines to authorize the issuance of on-sale licenses, the City Council will need to adopt an ordinance setting forth the requirements and regulations relating to the issuance of the on-sale licenses. The adoption of a licensing ordinance by the City Council is discretionary and there is no requirement that the City Council adopt such an ordinance if the voters approve the issuance of on-:sale liquor licenses. The number of on-sale liquor licenses that may be issued by a city is based,on its population. For cities, such as St. Anthony, with a population between 5,000 and 10,000, the maximum number of licenses is six, unless a higher number of licenses is approved DORS EY & WHITNEY L L P 52 by the voters. The Stonehouse would not require an on-sale liquor license and would not count against the limit on licenses that may be issued by the City. Effect on Issuance of On-Sale Liquor Licenses on City's Liquor Stores Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.601, subdivision 5, provides that the City may continue to own and operate its on-sale and off-sale municipal liquor stores if it issues on-sale liquor licenses. Therefore, the issuance by the City of on-sale liquor licenses to hotels and restaurants will have no effect on the continuation by the City of the ownership and operation of its municipal liquor stores or the Stonehouse, should it desire to continue the operation thereof. Licenses May Be Issued Only to Clubs.Hotels and Restaurants As mentioned earlier,Minnesota law restricts the issuance of on-sale liquor licenses by the City to hotels, clubs and restaurants. Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.101 defines clubs, hotels and restaurants as follows: "Club. "Club" is an incorporated organization organized under the laws of the state for civic, fraternal, social or business purposes, for jntellectual improvement, or for the promotion of sports, or a congressionally chartered veterans' organization, which: (1) has more than 50 members; - (2) has owned or rented a building or space in a building for more than one year that is suitable and adequate for the accommodation of its members; (3) is directed by a board of directors, executive committee, or other similar body chosen by the members at a meeting held for that purpose. No member, officer, agent, or employee shall receive any profit from the distribution or sale of beverages to the members of the club, or their guests, beyond a reasonable salary or wages fixed and voted each year by the governing body." "Hotel. "Hotel" is an establishment where food and lodging are regularly furnished to transients and which has: (1) a dining room serving the general public at tables and having facilities for seating at least 30 guests at one time; and (2) guest rooms in the following minimum numbers: in first class cities, 50; in second class cities, 25; in all other cities and unincorporated areas, 10." 2 DORSEY & WHITNEY LLP r r 53 "Restaurant. "Restaurant" is an establishment other than a hotel, under the control of a single proprietor or manager, where meals are regularly prepared on the premises and served at tables to the general public, and having a minimum seating capacity for guests as prescribed by the appropriate license issuing authority." Sunday Sales of On-Sale Liquor Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.504, subdivision 3 provides liquor sales for consumption on premises (whether by a City establishment or by a licensed establishment) are not permitted on a Sunday unless authorized by the voters of the City voting on the question of Sunday sales at a general or special election. This question of the issuance of Sunday on-sale liquor licenses is a separate question from the question of the issuance of on-sale liquor licenses to hotels and restaurants. Form of Questions Should the City Council determine to call for a special election on the question of the issuance by the City of on-sale liquor licenses, I recommend that the form of question to be submitted to the voters read as follows: "Shall the City of St. Anthony be authorized to issue on-sale liquor - licenses to hotels and restaurants as provided in Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.601?" - Should the City Council determine to call for a special election on the question of permitting Sunday on-sale liquor. I recommend that the form of question to be submitted to the voters read as follows: "Shall the City of St. Anthony be authorized to issue Sunday on-sale liquor licenses as provided in Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.504?"

Committee Process: 1. Walk-through building to increase familiarity 2. Brainstorm desired improvements 3. Consultant develops proposals based on Committee requests 4. Review consultant recommendations 5. Reach consensus on style 6. Develop phased schedule of improvements Participation: Formation of this Committee was based on request of a group of residents who expressed a desire to improve the building. Thirteen residents in addition to Councilmember Sparks asked to be a part of the process. Council Resolution 01- 044 appointed: Jane Berg Dick Enrooth George Marks Kim Bloom Ann Fiskar Juliette Bonnie Brever Lorraine LaBissoniere Anita Davis Gordhamer Annette Otte Christopher Marilyn Jenson Davis Pat LeFebvre In addition, staff on the Committee included Sally Cain, Community Services; Jay Hartman, Public Works; Molly Olivier, SEH. Background: In a time of increased expectations of city services, residents demand much of their public buildings. Community Center visibility and usage is surprisingly high. The image of the building serves as a visual representation of the City and is a focus for activity. The members of the Committee expressed much dissatisfaction with the building. Some of the concerns they expressed included: • the building doesn't blend in with the area—that it has a stark, "prisonlike" look to it. • the interior was uninviting • not enough seating in the great hall where parents wait for children (parents sit on the concrete floor) • Seniors using the building have a hard time hearing because of the acoustics • signage in the building was small and "impossible to read"from the entrance • meetings were not well marked • no central information area • Community Services had to field all questions because City and Police offices were not well marked • the bathroom area was so closed off that it presented security issues • Police entrance and offices were hard to find Use of the facility: According to the most recent Community Services annual report, there were 13,497 registrations for activities through Community Services, most of which happen at the Community Center. Between 150-175 children are enrolled in childcare each day. In addition to Community Services, the City schedules activities for evening use. These uses include: Village Quilters Lions / Christmas — Election Meetings St. Anthony Cocoa with Santa City Council Orchestra Claus Meetings Church group Library group Planning High school Private parties Commission cheerleading November elections Parks Commission practice Sportsboosters _ Road Construction Scouts activities for kids Meetings YMCA groups Unicycle Club Villagefest meetings Several townhouse Private parties Safety meetings association St. Anthony School Task Force meetings meetings. District seminars ACTION Board Sportsboosters Concert Series / Meetings meetings Rockwood Advisory Council / Hennepin&Ramsey Community County Meetings Services Use of the facility continued: Sister City meetings Kiwanis Pancake Chili Contest / Crime Prevention Breakfasts Chamber of Coalition meetings Orchestra Concerts Commerce Various meetings Volunteer Dinners involving City Staff Work of the Committee: The consultant and Committee generated many ideas about how to solve the problems: • install large and attractive signage • add pronounced landscaping • renaming of the building • build a canopy over the front doors which would dramatically improve the entrance • increase sound control • provide a community information bulletin board • eliminate the brick overhang in front of the entrance • build a permanent place for room schedules • construct monument sign y • increase seating inside and outside • clearly mark entrances to rooms • install rugs • add wall treatments to-warm the looks and improve acoustics • build a kiosk with seating • open up city offices • minimize the wall by the bathrooms • better mark Police hall and entrance • add the St. Anthony logo as a back drop to the Council chambers dais • improve the fagade by adding decorative cornerstones After coming to agreement on which improvements to put in place, cost estimates were drawn up by the consultant. To keep budgeting manageable, improvements will be phased over a three year period at a cost of$50,000 each year. The committee agreed on the order of changes based on a balance desire to improve the interior and exterior simultaneously. First year improvements First phase of improvements to exterior fagade and signage Construct permanent seating Add building direction sign with pamphlet storage Install sound panels Painf"above burnished block Modify back wall by bathroom with etched glass panels Install sidelight, sound seal and new door to City Hall offices Second year improvements Front landscaping Improvements to front patio Doors and signage improvements—first phase Third Year Improvements Add final decorative cornerstones to fagade of building New partition controls (electric) for Council Chamber and Multi-purpose room Doors and signage improvements—second phase Conclusion: Thanks to the work of the former City Council, we have a City Hall and Community Center that is basically functional. It provides a roof over our head and walls to enclose our activities. With modest investments of city,capitol, we could improve the look and functionality of the building so that it would serve as a source of civic pride, an attractive center of community activity, a secure space, and an inviting and easy to use public building. I would like to thank Councilmember Sparks for assisting me with this summary. �1 v INFORMATION FOR COUNCIL- SEPTEMBER 25. 2001 CITY MANAGER'S REPORT 1. September 4 Metropolitan Council meeting. 2.

Each of the utility providers were 1` contacted and the following information is submitted for your review and discussion: 1. Qwest Communications, the telephone provider for St. Anthony Village, anticipates the cost to remove phone lines from overhead wires to underground systems at $17.00 per lineal foot. (' 2. AT&T Broadband, the cable provider within St. Anthony Village, anticipates the cost to underground cable television at $16.00 per lineal foot. 3. Xcel Energy, the electrical provider for St. Anthony Village, anticipates the following cost to underground utilities: $590.00 per home to run new cable from street to meter. $400.00-$1,000.00 per home to rewire the connections in each home to accommodate underground electrical. • $25.00 per lineal foot to bury existing overhead utilities. In summary, it is anticipated that the cost to bury existing overhead utilities within the City of St. Anthony is approximately $58.00 per lineal foot plus individual charges to homeowners, 1 j ranging from $990.00 to $1,590.00. Each of the utilities indicated that if all three utilities were buried concurrently, there could be some savings on the installation of underground conduit. Should the Council desire to proceed further, it is recommended that a specific project be I identified and that the City solicit project bids from the utility providers. =4 If you have any questions, I will be present at your September 25, 2001 Council Meeting to discuss this issue with you, or you may call me at(763)287-7182.

INTRODUCTION 2.1. Authorization ' On June 26, 2001 the City of St. Anthony City Council authorized the preparation of an engineering Feasibility Report for the 2002 Street and Utility Improvement Project. This ' project was authorized under City of St. Anthony Resolution 01-068. ' 2.2. Scope This project provides for the street and utility reconstruction of Wilson Street from 30th Avenue to 32nd Avenue; Harding Street from 30th Avenue to 31 st Avenue; 31 st Avenue ' NE from Wilson Street to Silver Lake Road; and 32"d Avenue from Edward Street to Belden Drive. ' The project also proposes to install new storm sewer along 31st Avenue, from Wilson Street to the inlet of the new pond south of 31"Avenue and East of Harding Street. ' In summary, street, sanitary sewer, water main and storm sewer improvements are all proposed as part of this project. 2.3. Data Available Information and materials used in the preparation of this report include the following: City of St. Anthony Record Drawings ' City of St. Anthony Topographic Maps Interviews and discussion with property owners ' Discussions from Public Information Meetings Field observations of area Engineering analysis of selected flood problem areas within the City of ' St. Anthony,March 1998 2.4. Project Location The project is located in the south central portion of the City of St. Anthony and includes ' the following streets: Wilson Street from 30th Avenue NE to 32th Avenue NE ' Harding Street from 30th Avenue NE to 31st Avenue NE 31 st Avenue NE from Wilson Street to Silver Lake Road 32"d Avenue NE from Edward Street to Belden Drive The project area is identified on Figure I in Appendix A of this report. City of St.Anthony-2002 Street and Utility Improvement Project Feasibility Report WSB Project No. 1065-592 Page 2 2.5. Project History ' This project was initiated through the recognition of the following conditions in the project area: ' Deterioration of street conditions Reoccurring street flooding and inundation of homes from storm water The lack of capacity in the sanitary sewer system which results in frequent back- up of the sanitary line into tributary homes The streets, sanitary sewer, water main lines are approximately 40 years old and are exhibiting deterioration problems ' As a result of City Staff recommendations, storm water management task.force recommendations, engineering analysis of selected flood problem areas within the City of St. Anthony recommendations, and preliminary recommendations from the Sanitary Sewer Feasibility Study; the City Council provided funding in the 2002 budget for street and utility improvements. In addition, funding was also provided from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to complete improvements within the project area. On June 26, 2001 the St. Anthony City Council authorized the preparation of an engineering feasibility report for the 2002 Street and Utility Improvement Project. The project includes the construction of a new trunk storm sewer system to accommodate storm flows which currently inundate structures and flood streets in excess,of two feet in the project area. Continuing inundation of streets has lead to the deterioration of catch basins and pavements within the project area. ' 3. EXISTING CONDITIONS ' 3.1. Sanitary Sewer ' The sanitary sewer system in the project area consists of nine-inch(9") and 10-inch (10") diameter vitrified clay pipe(VCP) installed in the 1950's. The joint sealing material in use at that time was typically an oakum and bituminous material. Previous internal inspections with a specially designed television camera have found the pipe to be in generally fair structural condition with numerous offset joints, some cracked segments, some root intrusion and mineral deposits at joints, and some dips with solids deposition. 3.2. Watermain ' The existing water distribution mains in the project area were installed in the 1950's of cast iron pipe(CIP). The service connections are expected to have lead"goosenecks" ' and galvanized or copper service lines to the individual homes. In general, the system has provided good service but main breaks are becoming more likely as the pipes approach 50 years of service. In addition, the lead goosenecks may be a source of lead in ' the residential water supply and the cast iron pipes are probably heavily corroded and possibly leaking. ' City of St.An tho ny—2002 Street and Utility Improvement P r o ject Feasibility Report ' WSB Project No. 1065-592 Page 3 ' 3.3. Storm Sewer ' The existing storm sewer consists of a 36-inch (36") RCP, which flows from north to south along Wilson Street from 32nd Avenue to 30th Avenue. An 18" and 15"RCP tie into the Wilson Street RCP from 31 st Avenue. The existing storm sewer on 32nd Avenue, east of Wilson Street, is a 33-inch (33") storm sewer, and a 24"RCP conveys flow from the west. There is no existing storm sewer on Harding Street NE. ' The storm water conveyance system within Wilson Street is considered a trunk system, which receives water from approximately 330 acres. During heavy rainfall conditions, the storm sewer is not adequate to collect the runoff and convey it from the street area. Intersections regularly are flooded with a few inches to a few feet of water. In some cases the water level is high enough to flow from the roadway into adjacent garages and basements. 3.4. Streets Wilson Street, 31st Avenue NE, and Harding Street NE are generally 30-foot(30')wide streets,with concrete curb and gutter. There is a section of Wilson Street which borders 1 the cemetery south of 31"Avenue, which is less than 30 feet in width. No borings were taken for these streets but other borings in the area have indicated there was approximately 5 inches (5")bituminous over two and one-half feet of silty sand fill. Soil borings will be completed during final design. ' 4. PROPOSEDIMPROVEMENTS 1 4.1. Sanitary Sewer The existing 10-inch (10") VCP will be reconstructed with 10"PVC on Wilson Street from 30th Avenue NE to 32nd Avenue NE , including the intersection and west to the intersection with Edward Street. The existing 9-inch(9")VCP will be reconstructed with 10-inch(10") PVC on 31st Avenue NE and 32nd Avenue from Wilson Street to the ' intersection with Belden Drive. The proposed sanitary sewer improvements are shown on Figure 3 in Appendix A. 1 4.2. Watermain ' The existing water mains will be entirely or partially exposed by the excavation required for the sanitary sewer and storm sewer improvements. In addition,many of the water service lines to the individual properties will be removed or disconnected for a period of ' time. The excavation for the other utilities provides a timely opportunity for improvements to the water distribution system before significant problems are experienced. 1 ' City of St.Anthony-2002 Street and Utility Improvement Project Feasibility Report ' WSB Project No. 1065-592 Page 4 The proposed water main improvements consist of replacing the existing 6 mains with new 8" ductile iron pipe mains and copper service taps and lines. This will improve tdelivery of potable water and fire flow volume at reasonable pressure and head loss. Replacement of the service taps and lines may improve the water quality by reducing the ' potential for lead to enter the system and possibly increase the pressure by providing a clean service pipe. The proposed water system improvements are shown on Figure 4 in Appendix A. 4.3. Storm Sewer The proposed storm sewer improvements include replacing the existing 36-inch(36") storm sewer on Wilson Street from 30th Avenue NE to 31st Avenue NE with a 36-inch (36") storm sewer at a new elevation, replacing the existing 36-inch(36") storm sewer on Wilson Street from 31 st Avenue NE to 32nd Avenue NE with a 66-inch (66")storm ' sewer, replacing 100 feet of the existing 18-inch(18") storm sewer on 31 st Avenue NE west of Wilson Street with a 36-inch(36") storm sewer, and replacing the existing 24- 1 inch(24") and 33-inch(33") storm sewers on 32nd Avenue between Edward Street and Belden Drive with a 48-inch(48") storm sewer. ' A new 66-inch (66") storm sewer will be installed from the intersection of 31st Avenue and Wilson Street to the inlet of the new pond located between Harding Street and Silver Lake Road south of 31"Avenue NE. The proposed storm water system improvements are shown on Figure S in Appendix A. 4.4. Street ' The reconstruction of the existing streets is intended to improve the design strength of the pavement system and provide a street surface with an extended life for the City of St. Anthony. The existing street widths will be maintained in the new street to minimize impacts on the existing driveways,boulevards, and landscaping. The proposed street reconstruction areas are shown on Figure 2 and the typical section is shown on Figure 6 in Appendix A. ' After the excavation, a geotextile fabric will be placed to separate the underlying soft materials from the granular materials. One foot(F)of granular material, "sand cushion" will be placed on the geotextile fabric to provide a firm base for the six inches (6") of ' Class 5 aggregate base and three and one-half inches (3-1/2")of bituminous pavement. 4.5. Permits and Approvals ' Reconstruction of the existing sanitary sewers and water mains, will require a permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency(MPCA), and the Minnesota Department of Health, respectively. City of St.Anthony—2002 Street and Utility Improvement Project Feasibility Report ' WSB Project No. 1065-592 Page 5 ' 4.6. Detour Routes The project will require significant excavation and disposal of unacceptable material from the existing street area, and a supply of significant volumes of granular base, aggregate base and bituminous pavement materials. This effort will require closing the ' roads under construction and increasing loaded truck traffic on the streets adjacent to the construction area. Adequately signed detours will be identified to direct traffic around the construction zones and notify users of the increased truck and construction activity. In order to accommodate the property owners along the excavated roads, temporary. parking on the adjacent streets may be necessary during the periods of time when vehicle access is not possible. 5. FINANCING 5.1. Opinion of Probable Construction Cost Detailed breakdowns of the Cost Opinion for the various construction areas are included in Appendix B. The opinion of cost incorporated the construction costs experienced during 2000 and 2001, and include a 10%contingency factor. Administrative costs are projected at 30% of the construction cost and include engineering, legal, financing and other administrative costs. A summary of the project costs is as follows: Sanitary Sewer $290,000 Watermain Improvement $280,000 1 Storm Sewer Improvement $710;000 Street Reconstruction $920,000 Total $2,200,000 5.2. Funding Sources The total project cost is projected to be approximately$2,200,000. Funding for the ' project will come from a variety of sources including City is Street and Utility Reconstruction Funds (Public Improvement Bonds), Special Assessments to benefiting properties, and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. The City's assessment policy for street assessment is based on front footage along improved roads. The property owner is assessed 35%of total street and local drainage construction costs. Each property owner that receives a new water service will be assessed a flat rate per service hookup to new watermain.

FEASIBILITY AND RECOMMENDATION ' Project costs are anticipated to be approximately$2,200,000,which includes the total street and utility reconstruction of Wilson Street,Harding Street, and 32nd Avenue NE. . ' Due to the inadequate capacity of the sanitary sewer mains and the storm mains, this project is both feasible and necessary from an engineering standpoint. The installation of the sanitary and storm sewer will require the removal of the existing street and the ' removal and exposure of the existing water distribution lines. Under these conditions it is both"feasible and necessary to replace the existing street and water main. Furthermore, due to the location and condition of the existing utilities, the available street right-of-way, ' the existing soils conditions, and the need to provide utility service to all of the properties in the project area, other methods of improving the utility systems and the roadway are not feasible or cost effective. 1 Based on our analysis and data presented, the proposed project is feasible, necessary and cost effective from an engineering standpoint. We recommend the reconstruction of the sanitary sewer, water main, storm sewer and streets as detailed this report. 1 1 ' City of St.Anthony-2002 Street and Utility Improvement Project .
