2 Water rates.
3 Motion carried unanimously.
4 C. Planninp-Commission Items-August 21, 2001 meeting,
5 1. Resolution 01-081, re: Wirth Companies, request lot split for Lot 1, Block 1,
6 Beutz Addition.
7 David Lutz, of Wirth Companies, explained that the proposed lot split had been approved
8 by the Council back on June 23, 1998, but the applicant did not follow-up with a final
9 plat. He added that a dispute arose between his client and the other property owner
10 which was why the split was never completed.
11 Mr. Lutz indicated that following litigation, the two parties have come to settlement, and
12 part of the settlement was that the purchaser of the property would be deeding back a
13 portion of the parcel. He added that it was necessary to get the project re-approved by
14 the Council, which was why he was there.
15 Councilmember Sparks requested that Mr. Lutz review the map of the area.for the
16 Council.
17 Mr. Lutz indicated that his client owns Lot 2, which is vacant land,and that attaining Lot
18 1 would help with the development of the lot. He added that there was a provision in the
19 zoning regulations that all lots must abut by their full frontage on a public street which,
• 20 under the proposed lot split, would happen.
21 Mr. Lutz added that the lot split would create more square footage which would allow for
22 a building to be built, as well as put them in compliance with the parking requirements.
23 Mayor Cavanaugh asked who would have parking. Mr. Lutz indicated that
24 Mr. Lutz responded the vacant lot would have more parking.
25 Councilmember Horst clarified what Mr. Lutz was proposing.
26 Councilmember Sparks asked if there were any plans to develop the property. Mr. Lutz
27 responded that there were none at this time.
28 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that it would be an irregular shaped lot when the proposed
29 lot split would be complete. He added that this land was located inside of the City's
30 multi-million dollar Northwest Quadrant where a moratorium on the land was just lifted.
31 He suggested that they wait until there was a development plan.
32 Mr. Lutz indicated that they could not wait until they had a development plan because
33 they do.not own the land at this time.
34 Councilmember Thuesen stated that he did not think the area was part of the Apache
is35 Plan. Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that part of it was included in the Apache Plan.

1 Mr. Lutz stated that the existing state of the lot was out of ordinance, and the proposed
2 lot split would bring it into accordance.
3 Jim Prosser indicated that, if there was not a development plan in place,the property
4 provides good opportunity for both parties and suggested that they continue discussions.
5 Councilmember Sparks indicated that she would not like to see another car wash in the
6 space. Mr. Lutz responded that his client specializes in medical buildings, and that it
7 would probably be some sort of small.medical development.
8 Councilmember Horst stated he thought it was a good idea to look at the plan in relation
9 to the Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment Plan.
10 Momson stated that they were going from three lots to two lots, which would give more
11 commercial frontage to one of the lots. Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that, because the
12 single lot was the end lot and not developable standing by itself, it would have to be
13 consolidated with somebody as they move along with the Northwest Quadrant re-
14 Redevelopment Plan.
15 Planning Commission Vice Chair Randy Stille came forward to summarize the
16 conclusion of the Planning Commission on the lot split. He indicated that, without
17 talking to any Legal Council,they saw no reason to not move forward with procedure
i18 regarding the lot split.
19 Councilmember Horst questioned.the urgency of the lot split. Mornson indicated that the
20 Council has sixty days to make a decision.
21 Mr. Lutz indicated that if they do not approve the lot split soon, then his client would
22 probably move forward with development as is.
23 Mayor Cavanaugh suggested that they table the preliminary plat until the next meeting.
24 VI. REVIEW ITEMS.
25 A. Discuss financial strategies (Jim Prosser, Ehlers and Associates, will be present).
26 Jim Prosser introduced Elizabeth Diaz, his colleague, who was present and had done the
27 preparation for the meeting including the spread-sheets that were to be used this evening.
28 Prosser indicated that it was not a five-year budget, but a set of strategies to be examined on an
29 annual basis. He indicated that they will be able to determine how to balance the financial
30 resources that are available and the outcomes that they want to have for the community.

2 Prosser stated that the issue is how to balance. Prosser indicated that it was really important_for'
3 the Council to look at the components of developing a strategy.
4 Prosser indicated that Legal Council has suggested some items to be considered. He added that
5 they are not items that have to be included, but that they wanted the Council to be aware of some
6 of the capital needs that exist. He added that was extremely important that the Council take the
7 time to add any other items that they would like to see included.
8 Prosser stated that it was common for cities to look at budgeting as an input management
9 process. He indicated that there will need to be a balance in terms of discussion at the policy
10 level about what is driving inputs and outcomes.
11 Prosser indicated that they need more input from the Council than the last session in order for the
12 process to work.
13 Prosser stated that it was very typical for a city staff to stop providing the potential needs that are
14 three to five years out because they realize that the financial resources are not there.
15 Prosser stated that this process has the staff review a checklist of building systems, etc. and
16 asked them to check the items that have not been projected as a need.
17 -Discuss Gap Financing options
• 18 -Revenue options
19 -Service levels
20 -Discuss community impact of options

2 -Replacing the funding of charitable gambling to the City, if the Stonehouse is shut down
3 -Additional grounds maintenance
4 -Staff person for the Community Center during after-school hours
5 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that the resources have been added, but the outcomes have never
6 been articulated. He suggested that adding anything to the list would be a one-way street of
7 adding as opposed to re-inventing.
8 Mr. Prosser indicated that Mayor Cavanaugh mentioned a good point. He added that,
9 theoretically, it would be appropriate for them to provide every outcome. However, he
10 continued, there are some outcomes that they could change (frequency of snow-plowing, number
11 of inches of snow before sidewalks are plowed).
12 Prosser asked the Council if there are areas that, in' order to achieve a certain outcome, they are
13 providing too much in resources. He added that was an important component of the strategy.
14 Councilmember Hodson mentioned that several members of the community would like to see a
15 School Liaison.
16 Councilmember Thuesen inquired about the School Liaison. Mr. Prosser indicated that the Gap
17 Analysis would tell them if they had the funding resources.
18 BUDGET EXPANSION CAPITAL
19 -Public Works facility
20 -Relocate Fire Station
21 -Update Pavement Management Program
22 -Public Works storage for equipment
23 -Relocating and rebuilding Stonehouse off-sale
24 Mayor Cavanaugh stated he would like to add the street lighting and sidewalk efforts to the
25 above list.
26 Councilmember Horst asked about the Pavement Management Program. Jay Hartman stated it
27 was used to assess the overall condition of the roads so that there is some direction on what has
28 been under construction and what needs attention. He added that it was a computerized
29 management tool of the entire infrastructure.
30 Councilmember Hodson asked if the Pavement Management Program would also include the
31 process of analyzing the extra cost of concrete versus asphalt. Hartman stated that it was an
32 overall assessment tool for both bituminous and concrete pavement.
33 Mornson indicated that they used to have a Pavement Management Program in place that has
34 been shelved since the flooding took effect seven or eight years ago. He stated that they need to
35 take another look at which streets need seal coating, crack coating and reconstruction once the
0 36 flooding is taken care of.

9 -Continuing street improvement debt issues for pavement rehabilitation of approximately
10 $900,000 per year
11 -Other from Council
12 Prosser stated that one of the areas that he would like to see them examine are an analysis of
13 their current buildings, status of parking lots, etc. so that they have those items to submit when
14 they are forecasting.
15 Mayor Cavanaugh asked about the Public Works facility under the capital. He asked if, when
16 they look at the gap, has the capital cost been reflected in the operating expense. Prosser
17 indicated that when they complete there analysis they will need to include what it will cost to
18 service that debt as well as, if there are increased operating costs for the facility, they should be
19 included then.
® 20 Mayor Cavanaugh mentioned sub-contracting things such as tree trimming, sewer work, and
21 snow plowing and asked how they get the incentive to begin looking at alternative ways to the
22 $6,500,000. Prosser indicated that was a very complex question because numerous factors need
23 to-be considered.
24 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that before he would ever approve anything, he would like to know
25 that he looked at the alternatives for the $6,500,000. Prosser indicated that they needed to
26 examine the costs involved to run the facility and to truly understand those costs.
27 After much discussion on the Public Works facility, Prosser indicated that it needed to be
28 reviewed and added to the strategy. He added that they also should look at an appropriate range
29 of options.
30 It was suggested that the use of "Stonehouse" in the above be changed to "SAV". Mornson
31 concurred.

3 the victims and their families of the national disaster on September 11, 2001 by raising $10,000. Ms.
4 Kay thanked the Council for their willingness to have her there and hear about her campaign.
5 Ms. Kay reviewed the different projects that are going on throughout the community on connection with
6 the school. She indicated there was a real desire on behalf of the students to help the relief efforts in
7 any way that they could.
s Ms. Kay indicated that the project that she was heading involved students from the NHS (National

13
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
September 25, 2001
Page 4
1 Councilmember Sparks stated that the Community Center should be treated like the city's home, by
2 redecorating it to be comfortable-and attractive with seating for people and signage that makes it easy
3 for people to find their way.
4 Councilmember Sparks indicated that the Community Center visibility and usage were surprisingly very
5 high. She added that the Center sees 13,497 users per year, but that the number was higher when
6 elections, meetings, concerts, and celebrations were included.
7 Councilmember Sparks stated that the changes they could make would offer great improvements to the
s community its value, but were modest in nature.
9 Councilmember Sparks stated that she was having a casual cup of coffee with local residents. She
10 stated that members of$t. Anthony feel that the Community Center is unattractive and does not meet
11 the standards of the City of St. Anthony.
12 Councilmember Sparks referred to the task force, which was comprised of three staff people, thirteen
13 residents and herself. She stated that the members of the task-force expressed their concerns with the
• 14 Community Center: akin to a tomb, cold and uninviting interior, seniors using the building have a difficul
15 time hearing because of the acoustics, signage is small, rooms are not well-marked, and no central
16 information area.
17 Councilmember Sparks indicated that the Community Center staff has expressed concern because
18 everyone that enters the building heads straight to their offices due to the lack of well-marked police
19 and city offices. They also have expressed concern with the restrooms, which are closed off by a back
20 wall, presenting security issues.
21 Councilmember Sparks indicated that the consultant and the task force have provided several desirable
22 upgrades and improvements for a total cost of$150,000, phased into three years. She added that the
23 existing.building is functional and provides basic necessities, but that the modest investment would make
24 . it a source of civic pride, an attractive center of community activity, and a secure space.
25 Councilmember Sparks stated that the Community Center and City Hall represents the things that she
26 values which are family and community. She stated that improving the building speaks to her desire to
27 build a community and a place for families to gather.
28 Molly Olivier indicated that she met with the task force six different times and discussed all of the
29 different aspects of the building, both good and bad.
• 30 Ms. Olivier presented an understanding of the building's existing architecture:

1 In.closing, Ms. Olivier stated that allocating funds for the improvement of City Hall and Community
2 Center invites people to participate in the community. She added that understanding the existing
3 architecture confirms the need for improvement, and that the proposed improvements would provide
4 easy access to the building for residents and visitors.
5 Mike Momson asked if the project would be bid for each phase. Ms. Olivier indicated that the total
6 cost did not reflect any bidding costs. Mornson stated that, if money was not an object, he thought it
7 would make sense to bid the project out as one project to save bidding costs. Ms. Olivier agreed,
8 adding that they could have the full set of documents in one setting, and then have the three bid periods.
9 Councilmember Horst asked if SEH, Inc. did the initial plans for the building. Ms. Olivier responded
10 that they did not, O'Brian Construction did.
11
12 Ms. Olivier indicated that several million dollars that were pulled from the initial project in order to get
13 the project to go out to bid. She added that was one of the reasons that they want to be certain that the
14 financial portion of this project is in place this time.
• 15 Councilmember Horst expressed his feeling that improving the Community Center was not the highest
16 thing on his list of priorities. He stated that the building did need to be beautified, but was infinitely
17 better than what they had.
18 Councilmember Horst added that he was not too thrilled about the idea of tearing walls down,etc. Ms.
19 Olivier stated that the only real construction element was with the lower level of the canopy.
20 Councilmember Horst clarified that Community Services has expressed their frustration with the
21 frequent stops that people make to their window to ask for information. Ms. Olivier confirmed that.
22 Councilmember Thuesen stated that there existed functional and aesthetic things about the building that
23 needed attention.
24 Resident Jane Berg, member of the task force, expressed her mixed feelings about Ms. Olivier
25 presenting the plans that night in light of the recent national tragedy. She continued that the Community
26 Center was the heart of their community, and indicated that it was built on financial decisions without
27 any community involvement whatsoever.
28 Ms. Berg stated that she hoped that the Council would seriously consider this project as she feels that it
29 is a priority.

1 Resident Annette Otte, member of the task force, stated that she lives behind the building and said it
2 looks_like Stillwater's Reformatory. She indicated that they.were not talking about changing the back
3 because they could not afford to, yet stated that the front desperately needed updating as it is the heart
4 of St. Anthony.
5 Ms. Otte concluded that it was not a building to be proud of on the outside, acknowledged that there
6 are other areas in the community that need financial aid, but indicated her certainty that the suggested
7 changes would make people feel better about the village.
s Councilmember Thuesen stated he did not deny the things that were mentioned by the task force and
9 Ms. Olivier. He indicated that he could not argue with the expressed needs, but referred to the other
10 needs in the City(Fire Station, Public Works Building).
11 Councilmember Thuesen indicated that the price tag on the Central Park Project kept increasing, but
12 giving the project a limited budget controlled the problem.
13 Councilmember Thuesen reviewed Phase One of the proposed Community Center. He stated that he
® 14 did not.deny the lack of f inctionability of the building, nor the aesthetic issues that existed. He stated
15 that he was not opposed to the plan but was not confident that this was the right time for the project.
16 Councilmember Horst stated he agreed with some of Councilmember Thuesen's concerns. He added
17 that he has a lot of faith in Councilmember Sparks and the task force.
18 Councilmember Horst indicated that the existing building was not that bad, and that it needed to be
19 examined further both in regard to cost and timing.
20 Councilmember Hodson stated he respected the work of the task force and Molly Olivier. He added
21 that he has been an advocate of remodeling and improving the building ever since it was built, and that
22 he felt that the building did not accurately reflect the City of St. Anthony.
23 Councilmember Hodson stated that he felt they had an opportunity here. He continued that with the
24 improvements that were discussed tonight,the Fire House and the Public Works Building he believed
25 that there were enough things that needed to be done for the City that they could all be put into
26 referendum.
27 Councilmember Hodson continued that he believed they could gather enough community support and
28 recommended that they put the project into referendum.

1 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that the building was not built as a community center, but as an office
2 building for the Public Works.Department, the Police Department, and City Council. He stated that he
3 was surprised that the Fire Department had not yet been cited by O.S.H.A. for the fumes that fill the
4 building each time the Fire Trucks were started up.
5 Mayor Cavanaugh added that the project was long overdue and should be done now. He stated that
6 their pride was at stake, and that he was tired of this building being referred to as a prison. He stated
7 that the City of St. Anthony was the only city that held their Council meetings behind closed doors,
8 which suggests that visitors to the building are aggravating and un-welcome.
9 Mayor Cavanaugh concluded that they turn the project over to staff for them to come up with a funding
10 source and programming. He stated his belief that the recent national tragedy would directly affect
11 community-life, making.it a greater center of activity, as people would be staying closer to home.
12 Councilmember Sparks indicated that the project was a modest improvement that would create great
13 change in their community. She added that the cost of the project was very reasonable, and that
14 referendum was a fine idea, yet stated that they could not go out for referendum for$50,000 a year.
015 Councilmember Hodson stated that was true, but that they could go out as a total package.
16 Councilmember Sparks added that the project was larger than she initially was hoping for, but that she
17 was grateful for Ms. Olivier's great vision.
18 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that $100,000 was being used as an operating expense, instead of as capital.
19 He added that they need to squeeze as much as they could out of the $100,000 per year to get this
20 project done.
21 Morrison indicated that the $100,000 per year that they receive from the schools was essentially seen
22 as a lease payment. He added that the replenished funds were intended for use for the Fire Department
23 and Public Works.
24 Morrison added that once they got the new gym in, the operating costs increased considerably.
25 Councilmember Sparks stated that the building was seeing more use than they anticipated, which is why
26 they should move forward with the project.
27 Councilmember Hodson reiterated that he was in support of the project, but wanted to go forward with
021 a bond referendum in conjunction with Public Works and the Fire Department and have it completed in
29 one year.

Councilmember Sparks stated that she did not want to wait for a bond referendum, because the
2 dissatisfaction on behalf of the.community is very strong now.
3 Morrison indicated that he needed to receive a clear message from the Councilmembers whether they
4 want to put the project into referendum, or phase out the project over three years.
5 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that he would staff to show them where, in their community, they would
6 get the money.
7 Councilmember Horst stated that he thought that after they approved the Central Park project,they
8 had cashed in all of their chips.
9 Councilmember Hodson stated he would like to see the project put into referendum as a total package.
10 Councilmember Thuesen stated that he did not understand the urgency of the project.
l l Councilmember Horst stated that, if the $50,000 per year would cost the City of St. Anthony a
• 12 firefighter,police officer, etc., that he would not feel comfortable with turning the project over to staff.
13 Mayor Cavanaugh spoke to each Councilmember individually and concluded that Mornson was to
14 come back to the Council with resources generated that would allow them to proceed.
15 Ms. Olivier reminded the Council that the panel-system was not included in the financial plan.
16 Councilmember Hodson added that the panel-system, the monument sign, and the flags were not
17 included in the financial plan. He continued that there are other incidentals that are potentially in the
18 plan that will cost more. He added that they have a reputation in the City of St. Anthony for doing
19 things half way, and that he would like to get away from that.
20 Councilmember Sparks thanked the involved parties for their hard work.
21 X. GENERAL POLICY BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL.
22 A. Resolution 01-078, re: Receive report and order plans and specifications for 2002 Street
23 Improvement Project(Todd Hubmer, WSB & Associates, will be present).

1 Avenue from Edward Street to Silver Lake Road; and 32"d Avenue from Edward Street to Belden
2 Drive. He indicated that there were 1900 lineal feet of roadway that would be reconstructed.
3 Hubmer reviewed the details of the other proposed improvements,which include: sanitary sewer,
4 watermain, storm sewer, street,permits and approvals, and detour routes.
5 Hubmer indicated that the above portion of the project would be funded by the Minnesota Department
6 of Natural Resources.
7 Hubmer indicated that the funding for the proposed project had four main components:
8 -sanitary sewer($290,000)
9 -watermain improvement($280,000)
10 -storm sewer improvement( $710,000)
11 -street reconstruction ($920,000)
12 Hubmer indicated that the total project was projected to be approximately $2,200,000. He added that
13 funding for the project would come from a variety of sources including City Street and Utility
® 14 Reconstruction Funds (Public Improvement Bonds), Special Assessments to benefiting properties, and
15 the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
16 Hubmer stated that the City's assessment policy for street assessment was.based on front footage along
17 improved roads. He indicated that the property owner would be assessed 35% of total street and local
18 drainage construction costs. He added that each property owner that receives a new water service
19 would be assessed a flat rate per service hookup to new watermain.
20 Hubmer indicated that there was one segment that he wanted to bring to the Council's attention. He
21 stated that Wilson Street gets very narrow along the segment that runs next to the cemetery. He
22 continued that they are going to meet with the cemetery to discuss the possible widening and realigning
23 of Wilson Street in that area to make it more consistent with the remainder of city streets.
24 Councilmember Horst asked what the portion of working with the cemetery consisted of. Hubmer
25 stated that there were some mass burials back in the early 1900's that he wanted to investigate further.
26 Mayor Cavanaugh asked who the driving force was for widening the street. Hubmer responded that
27 City staff has pushed for widening the road.
28 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if it was best to leave it alone. Councilmember Thuesen stated that he lives in
4D29 the area and stated that residents have approached him on the issue.

3 other communities. Hubmer indicated that the City of St. Anthony pays for more of the general street
4 fees than other cities in the area.
5 Morrison stated that they were looking at $1,300,000 in improvement bonds. Hubmer stated that the
6 DNR money for this project was in hand.

® 12 Motion carried unanimously.
13 XI. CITY ATTORNEY REPORTS.
14 A. Special Elections.
15 Jerry Gilligan indicated that the City could hold special elections in a question on which the voters are
16 authorized by law to pass judgements. He stated that examples of this would be the question of
17 whether a city shall issue general obligation bonds where the voters must approve the issuance of the
18 bonds and the question of whether a city shall issue on-sale liquor licenses.
19 Gilligan indicated that a special election may be ordered by the City Council on its own motion or upon
20 a petition signed by a number of voters equal to 20%of the votes cast at the last City general election.
21 Councilmember Thuesen asked what the process would be if the voters were to approve split-liquor
22 licensing. Gilligan indicated that the City would not have to agree to issue the maximum that was
23 permitted by state law.
24 Councilmember Thuesen what type of options the City would have asked if a restaurant wanted to
25 come in, but the City did not want to see the particular establishment come into to the City. Gilligan
26 stated that if the establishment met the conditions of the ordinance they would likely have to be allowed
27 in.

1 Gilligan continued that there were some conditions that the City could place in the ordinance to protect
2 them from getting a particular type of operation in the City that they did not want.
3 Gilligan stated that the liquor laws in Minnesota were confusing.
4 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that he was at Cub Foods recently and saw Mike's Hard Lemonade amidst
5 pop, bread, and cookies behind all of the cash registers. He added that he would like to see an audit
6 on these types of products in grocery stores.
7 Mike Larson greeted the Council. He indicated that the grocery stores are attempting to make their 3.2
s beer and non-alcoholic beers better known by housing them with candy and other frequently consumed
9 products.
a
10 Larson indicated that they have been documenting things of that nature, as they are making a direct
11 association between alcohol and children. He indicated that the struggle between grocers and liquor
12 stores has been going on for awhile and will be an at the next legislative session.
® 13 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that they should have a standard that has alcohol packaging looking like
14 alcohol. Larson agreed, but indicated he was uncertain of how truly feasible doing that would be.
15 Morrison suggested that Councilmembers keep the pages related to the issuance of On-Sale Liquor
16 Licenses found in this evening's packet.
17 Gilligan stated that the City can spend City dollars to provide information about the referendum.
18 Councilmember Sparks wondered about the success of mid-year referendums. Morrison indicated he
19 thought they were typically lower, but that they were not recommending a mid-year yet.
20 Gilligan stated he thought it was fairly common for cities and school districts to hold special elections
21 independent of the general election.
22 Morrison added that the results of a special election simply provide the authority to make a decision.
23 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that the 1999 State Liquor.Operations had come out, and that the City of
24 St. Anthony had the best gross margins in the city, next to the City of Wayzata.
25 Councilmember Hodson asked if there was anything that needed to be put forward regarding future
• 26 projects and timelines related to liquor, the Fire Department, and the Public Works building. Mornson

2 timelines.

4 Gilligan reviewed the moratorium for the property in St. Anthony that was known as Village Northwest
5 and was due to expire on October 4, 2001.
6 Gilligan indicated that the moratorium could be extended eighteen months. He stated that he did not see
7 a need to extend the moratorium, and recommended that they let the moratorium expire.
8 Mayor Cavanaugh asked about subdividing the property and asked if there was any unilateral authority.
9 Gilligan indicated that the moratorium did not prevent them from subdividing the property but from
10 building on it.

AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO WATER RATES,
AMENDING SECTION 610.02 OF THE 1993
ST. ANTHONY CODE OF ORDINANCES
The City Council of the City of St..Anthony hereby ordains:
Section 1. Section 610:02 is amended to read as follows:
610.02 Water Rates. Water bills will be computed quarterly based on metered water used at the rate
of$1.10 per 100 cubic feet or any fraction thereof.
Section 2. This ordinance shall be in effect as of the date of its publication.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: October 1, 2002
TO: Mike Morrison,City Manager
FROM: Roger Larson,Finance Director
ITEM: 2002 WATER/SEWER RATES
The Public Works Director has submitted a 2002 water-operating budget of$432,600 and a sewer-
operating budget of$739,900.
Based on the approval of those budgets, I have completed an analysis to determine if a rate increase
is necessary to balance these operating budgets. The results are as follows:
Water-- (Increase is necessary)
In 2002, it is anticipated that St. Anthony will sell 40,750,000 cubic feet of water. Calculating the
estimated 2002 water sales (40,750,000 divided by 100 x $1.07) shows a total estimated income of
$436,000.
Expenditures of $432,600 plus the water filtration transfer of $15,200 requires revenues to total
$447,800, which indicates a moderate increase (3 cents per 100 cubic feet) is necessary to balance
the 2002 water operating budget.
Recommendation:
The present rate of $1.07 per 100 cubic feet is not sufficient to balance the 2002 water-
operating budget. Staff recommends the ordinance (Section 610 — Water, Subdivision
#610.02) be amended to reflect a 2002 rate of $1.10 per 100 cubic feet.
Sewer: (Increase is necessary)
Currently, sanitary sewer disposal costs the residents $2.02 per 100 cubic feet. Based on Metro
Waste's estimate of flowage, sewer charges will be based on disposal of 35,575,000 cubic feet of
sanitary waste.
Calculating the estimated 2002 sewer revenue (35,575,000 divided by 100 X $2.02) shows a total
income of $718,600. Projected expenditures of $739,900 produces a deficit of ($18,800) and an
increase is necessary to balance the sewer-operating budget. A rate increase of $ .06 cents per
100cf is necessary to finance the 2002 budget. (35,575,000 divided by 100 X$2.08=$739,900).
In 1988, the City Council passed an ordinance relating to sewer rates and charges. This ordinance
allows for changes in the sewer rates without amending the ordinance. The rate increase is
handled admistratively and requires no Council action.

W Subject: Wirth Companies Lot Subdivision
I
Date: October 16, 2001
I met with Tom Hanka and Jeff Bornmann from the Wirth Companies today at our offices. We
discussed the status of the Apache Redevelopment. Wirth understands that it would be in their best
interest to wait to develop this parcel until after a developer is selected for this site. They could then
discuss potential coordinated site development as part of a larger development.
As a result of this discussion Wirth agreed to enter an agreement with the City that they would not
develop the property for a six°month period. We discussed this with Jerry Gilligan and he agreed to
prepare an agreement. He suggested that the subdivision be conditioned on execution of an agreement.
Tom Hanka seemed agreeable to that idea.

DATE: 09/10/01 MEETING DATE: 09/18/01
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Susan Henry, Assistant City Manager
RE: Request for Lot Split: Wirth Cos., Lot 1, Block 1, Beutz Addition
The applicant, Wirth Companies, is requesting a lot split. It is the same lot split which
the City Council approved on June 23, 1998. Following that approval by the City, the
applicant did not follow-up with a final plat. City staff has requested the applicant return
to the Planning Commission with the original request. David Lutz, representative for the
Wirth Companies, stated a dispute arose between the two property owners, which is
why the split was never completed.
The request is to subdivide and replat Lot 1, Block 1, Beutz Addition, a vacant lot to the
southwest of the Apache Medical Building. The applicant proposes to split Lot 1, Block
1, Beutz Addition and join 74 feet to the Apache Medical Building to provide additional
parking. The remaining southerly 74 feet will be replatted to include the vacant parcel,
Lot 2, Block 2, Apache Plaza that adjoins to the east.
Wirth Companies is not currently the owner for the subject property. According to an
agreement on the case, Wirth Companies will become the property owner. Staff has
requested a Ietter from the current property owner's counsel, acknowledging this
understanding. Staff had not yet received the letter as packets were sent out. The letter
will be presented to Commissioners on September 18.
The applicant's request will bring Lot 1, Block 1, Beutz Addition into compliance with
Chapter 15, Subd. 4 (1), of the City's Ordinance, which states that all lots must abut
their full frontage on a public street. The replatting of the vacant lot creates a lot that
meets the minimum lot size requirement under the same Chapter. The proposal will not
affect the existing easement, located at the "finger" shape piece of land.
Legal counsel reviewed the plat in 1998. There have been no changes since then. The
item to note is the easement. Prior to the development of the-lot, a final plat will have to
be approved and evidence of title will need to be provided.
Staff Recommendation: Approved the preliminary plat, subdivide and replat, of Lot 1,
Block 2, Beutz Addition.

Re: Apache Medical and Professional Center Lot Split
Dear Saint Anthony Village,
I am writing to clarify what is attempting to be done in this lot split. This split was
approved to happen back in June of 1998, however, a dispute arose and the split was
never completed. The parties have now come to an agreement and wish to proceed
splitting the lot. I have enclosed various letters and a portion of the purchase agreement
• that should help explain what has transpired. The)Virth Companies has taken the
necessary steps to have the lot split and at this time is requesting approval once again to
perform the lot split. If you have any questions or concerns I can be reached at 612-373-
0430.

proposed split would involve the creation of a line running east/west located 55 feet south
of the northerly border of said lot. See diagram number 2.
The purpose of this split is to make Lot 2,Block 1, Apache Plaza an economically
viable site for development. As the plat currently exists, there is not enough square
footage for development and still meet Saint Anthony Village's parking ordinance.

entire pink portion would be owned by The Wirth Companies and the entire yellow

a
To prepare the park for the future Silver Point Park building, and to address some
issues within the baseball, hockey and skating areas, it is proposed that grading of
Silver Point Park be completed this fall. Attached is the proposed plan for grading at
Silver Point Park. Also, attached for your consideration is a change order to the
• 2001 Street project to complete the grading in Silver Point Park.
The proposed grading improvements were presented to the parks Commission at
their October meeting. We have also met with the park building designer to
incorporate the building location, utility needs and building pad elevations into the
proposed grading improvements. To minimize the time needed to establish turf
within Silver Point Park it is recommended that skating not be provided in Silver
Point Park this winter. Alternate skating facilities are located at Emerald Park and
Sandcastle Park in Roseville.
I will be present at the October 23, 2001 Council meeting to discuss these projects and to
answer any questions you may have, or please feel free to call me at (763) 287-7182.

Mr. Mike Momson
City Manager
Village of Saint Anthony
3301 Silver Lake Road NE
Saint Anthony,Minnesota 55418-1603
Dear Mr. Momson:
® Decision Resources, Ltd., is pleased to present this survey research proposal.to you for the
Village of Saint Anthony. Much of this proposal is based upon your discussion with my partner,
Diane Traxler,and also builds upon our past studies for the City. This prospectus is organized in
three parts: a discussion of the goals of the research; a potential design and schedule; and,
estimated project costs. As you will see, I am certain that DRL can provide the Village of Saint
Anthony with the information it seeks in both a cost-effective and timely manner.
GOALS OF THE RESEARCH:
The survey would assess the attitudes and opinions of residents of the Village of Saint Anthony
on three separate, but interrelated.issues:
1. Evaluation of Quality of Life: How satisfied are residents with their current services and taxes
in the Village of Saint Anthony? What do they see as the needs of the community? Are there any
priorities on specific types of services which the Village should offer? What services, if any, need
to be expanded? What services, if any, could be reduced or terminated entirely?
2. Potential Referendum Issues: How do residents feel about property tax increase for various
specific purposes? Do they see a need for a fire station or public works building? What
information sources are used by residents to find out about these issues and base a decision for or
against a referendum? What is the best way to inform residents about needs prior to any
referendum campaign?
57
• 3. Changing City Demographics: Does the current population profile suggest policy strategies
for the long-run? Among newer residents, what characteristics of the Village attracted them to
settle? What are the major community values that older residents want to maintain in the future?
Does the composition of households in the Village suggest new and more cost-effective methods
for the delivery of city services?
DESIGN AND SCHEDULE OF THE RESEARCH.•
Decision Resources, Ltd., proposes to conduct a telephone survey of 400 randomly selected
households in the Village of Saint Anthony. A sample of 400 residents would provide results
projectable to the entire city adult population within± 5.0 percent in 95 out of 100 cases. The
sample is also of sufficient size to permit the district to be divided into a maximum of four
categories for more detailed analysis, such as age, mobility, home ownership, location of
residence, presence of children, and other demographic characteristics.
To insure the integrity of the sample, DRL places the most exacting sampling standards in the
industry on our procedures. Before an alternate household is substituted for a designated target,
at least fifteen attempts are made to contact the initial households during a five day period. The
telephone calls take place during various times on weekday evenings and during the weekend.
Our interviewers are also instructed to seek convenient appointments with interviewees, cutting
• our non-contact rate to less than five percent on average. An unbiased selection process is also
used to identify the adult member of the household to be interviewed. To validate the completed
sample, the latest United States Census updated population characteristics are utilized as a
standard of comparison.
The questionnaire would be administered by DRL trained and supervised personnel. The
computer analysis will be obtained from our in-house C-MENTOR and SPSS statistical analysis
systems, insuring both access to the most current analysis programs and confidentiality of the data
set.
The Village of Saint Anthony will be presented with two bound copies of the final report
highlighting all the major findings of the study. DRL will also speak to any major differences
from and similarities with the past study of the similar suburban communities, when applicable. In
addition, any"tracking questions"from previous studies conducted for the Village of Saint
Anthony would be explicitly compared. A volume of all computer generated cross tabulations
and other multivariate statistical techniques will also be included.
1. Planning with Village Council Members, Village Staff, and/or relevant individuals to establish
the topics to be covered in the survey. Based on these topic concepts, DRL would word specific,
neutral questions. This activity can be completed by a meeting, telephone and/or fax, depending
on client wishes, within two weeks of the initiation of the contract.
• Page 2
58
2. Structuring of questions and final approval of the survey instrument. These activities to be
• completed within three weeks of the initiation of the contract.
3. Final determination of the field dates for interviewing.
4: Pre-testing and, if needed, approval of resulting revisions. This activity to be completed by the
second day of fieldwork.
5. Completion of all fieldwork within a four-to-five week period.
6. Computer analysis and preparation of written report. All analytical tests and commentary will
be available within three weeks after completion of the field work.
7. Delivery of the final written report to the City of Saint Anthony and presentation of the results
and implications at a formal or workshop meeting. Afterwards, telephone consultation, as the
: need arises, will be provided about the study's findings and implications.
PROJECT COSTS:
The cost of a survey is driven by two factors: sample size and questionnaire length. A 60-70
question item, 400 household random sample of the City of Saint Anthony would cost $9,700.00.
• Each additional question item beyond the initial allotment would be $125.00.
