VI. 7:15 PM - ADJOURNMENT. REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING WILL START AT 7.20 PM . • JOINT CITY COUNCIL/PLANNING COMMISSION WORK SESSION MARCH 9, 1999 DISCUSSION ITEMS Over the past few months-, the Planning Commission has identified and prioritized several planning issues that it believes to be central and urgent to the long-term health of the City. These priority issues are listed below, and represent the consensus of the members of the Planning Commission- 1. Continued redevelopment of Apache Plaza; 2. Redevelopment of the St. Anthony Shopping Center; 3. Continued development of the unique.identity of the City; 4. Develop new ways to promote maintenance and improvement of the housing stock; and 5. Addition of an Economic Development person to the City staff. • None of these issues are new to either the Planning Commission or to the City Council, and they are among other issues that face the City as well. The-issues above represent issues that the Planning Commission feels are important, urgent, and within the appropriate realm of the responsibilities of a Planning Commission. The Planning Commission believes itself to be ready, willing, and able to lead efforts on the City's behalf on some or all of these issues in 1999. In the past, the Planning Commission has received mixed messages from the City Council regarding what role the Planning Commission should play in these types of activities. - We recognize that this level of activity by the Commission is outside the responsibilities of the Commission in the recent past,,-and-here offer to-take on more-responsibility. If the Council feels that this is inappropriate activity for the Commission, or believes the Commission to be unable or incompetent to perform.this responsibility,we wish to-know this so that we may limit our work-to being a.screening tool for the Board of Adjustment and Review. We look forward to an open and frank discussion on the Council's wishes on the future role and limits of authority of the City's Planning Commission. • • CITY OF ST.

REPORTS. • 41 A. Parks Commission-February 8, 1999. � r City Council Meeting Minutes February 23, 1999 Page 3 1' Ranallo welcomed Parks Commissioner George Wagner and invited him to address the Council. 2 Mr. Wagner reviewed the Parks Commission's February 8, 1999 meeting at which plans for the 3 Water Tower Park play area were discussed. He stated that a site plan was proposed by Bob 4 Kost, BRW, Inc., at the Commission's January meeting, and it was decided that the Commission 5 wanted a larger play area. He added the revised plan presented by Mr. Kost on February 8 meets 6 the Commission's requirements for the park to include a second half basketball court, restroom 7 facility and water fountain. 8 9 Mr. Wagner stated the proposed plan was discussed at length and an agreement was reached. He 10 added a more finalized plan will be discussed at the Commission's March 8 meeting and will be 11 presented to the Council at their March 23, 1999 meeting. He stated the park's estimated cost 12 will be approximately$200,000, and a final estimate will hopefully be presented to the Council 13 in March. 14 15 Mr. Wagner stated that a handicapped accessible wood fiber base for the area was discussed 16 which is an expensive part of the development but necessary to create a park which is accessible 17 to all residents. Mr. Wagner stated the Commission's playground equipment sub-committee was in the process 20 of receiving information from vendors and selecting appropriate equipment. He added the sub- 21 committee plans to decide on equipment for both the Water Tower Park play area and Silver 22 Point Park to be ordered simultaneously and hopefully obtain a better deal. 23 24 Mr. Wagner stated Public Works Director Jay Hartman had indicated the City would be able to 25 store the equipment for Silver Point Park if the area is not ready for installation when the 26 equipment arrives. He added the Commission plans to have the Water Tower Park play area 27 ready for a July park opening. 28 29 Ranallo asked whether decorative fencing will be added along the bituminous road within the 30 park. Mi. Wagner confirmed that there will be decorative fencing, terracing and landscaping 31 along that road as well as along 33rd Avenue. He added a shelter or gazebo had been discussed 32 but the Commission decided against it as the area has lots of trees and is well-shaded. 33 34 Faust asked for clarification with regard to the proposed restroom facility. Mr. Wagner stated the 35 plans include a unisex handicapped accessible restroom unit with a fenced enclosure. He added 36 the proximity to 33rd Avenue will hopefully discourage vandals, and the restroom will also be 37 accessible from the tennis courts. 38 B. Planning Commission-February 16, 1999. Ranallo stated that a representative from the Planning Commission was not present as there were 41 no public hearings or concept reviews at their recent meeting and, therefore,the Commission had T City Council Meeting Minutes February 23, 1999 Page 4 1 nothing to report. 2 3 C. , Councilmembers. 4 Faust reported on his attendance at a meeting on Wednesday February 17, 1999 with Senator 5 Marty, Representative McGuire and their staffs to review flood relief assistance from the State. 6 He added as it is not a bonding year there.is little chance that current available funds will change, 7 but he believes the DNR enjoys working with the City; has found the City's projects viable and 8 worthwhile; and communication lines are still open. He expressed his sense of encouragement 9 and support after this beneficial meeting. 10 11 Thuesen presented a booklet prepared by Bloomington youth in.connection with the 12 Bloomington Crime Prevention Association which he had seen recently on local news. He stated 13 the booklet presents a mission statement, crime-related problems faced by the City and possible 14 solutions. He added he intends to obtain a contact at that organization for further information 15 and to discuss the possibility of such a project for the community. He stated he would present 16 his findings at the Council's next worksession. 17 18 Marks stated the Sister City organization continues its work on related projects: the request for 19 funding from Finlandia Foundation for an art exchange between schools in St. Anthony and Salo, ' 20 Finland, which will be a Year 2000 event; and a visit from a-dance group from Salo in June. 21 22 D. Mayor. 23 Ranallo stated a meeting will be held Monday March 8, 1999 at 7:00 P.M. in the Community 24 Room to discuss plans for VillageFest, which commences August 7, 1999. He added residents 25 interested in becoming involved are encouraged to attend and bring ideas for funding and 26 sponsorship. 27 28 E. Ci1y Manager. 29 Mornson stated the Rice Creek Watershed District is undertaking a diagnostic study,on Silver 30 Lake which will take an entire year to complete,the results of which will be ready for 31 presentation in February or March of 2000. He added this process includes extracting samples 32 from the lake over a one-year period. 33 34 Mornson stated the City had been notified by the City of New Brighton of their plans to 35 undertake road improvements on Silver Lane, which is an MSA road, to include overlay and 36 replacement of sidewalks. He added the City expressed its concern with regard to recent 37 flooding in that area and the necessity of removing and upgrading utilities if the road is dug up. 38 39 Mornson stated that there is currently no funding for such a project. He added since the road 40 runs through both Cities,there must be consensus of approval for the,work to be completed, and 41 this was not the case. r City Council Meeting Minutes February 23, 1999 0 Page 5 1 VIII. PUBLIC HEARINGS -None. 2 . 3 IX. NEW BUSINESS. 4 A. Resolution 99-023, re: Authorize call for bids for repairs at the G.A.C. water filtration 5 ,plant. 6 Motion by Marks, second by Thuesen to approve Resolution 99-023, authorizing call for bids for 7 repairs at the G.A.C. water filtration plant. 8 9 Motion carried unanimously. 10 11 B. Discuss 1999 Volunteer Dinner. 12 Ranallo stated he has recently had requests for the date of the 1999 Volunteer Dinner, and 13 requested that the Council select a date and perhaps decide on a speaker for the event. He added 14 Momson and his staff would organize the event. 15 16 Thuesen stated he had 3 ideas for the dinner, which would all be associated with VillageFest: a 17 community picnic for all residents with special recognition of volunteers; a picnic specifically for volunteers during VillageFest week; or a dinner similar to last year's event. 20 Ranallo expressed concern that the week of VillageFest, which already takes much planning and 21 effort on the part of volunteers, would be an inappropriate time for the dinner. Faust agreed, 22 stating the dinner is a way to honor volunteers, and asking them to bring a dish to a picnic would 23 be counter productive. He added that the last week in April is Volunteer Week, and the City has 24 tried to plan the dinner to coincide with that event in the past, as there is already other publicity, 25 and attendance is high. 26 27 Marks stated the dinner last year was opened up to a larger group which was a positive 28 development. He added the volunteers might not be able to attend the dinner during VillageFest. 29 30 Ranallo stated the Council should decide on a date for the dinner, adding all Saturday nights in 31 April are booked so a Friday would be better. 32 33 Morrison stated if April 30 is agreeable to'the Council, he would reserve that on the calendar, and 34 a list of volunteers and possible speaker could be discussed at the Council's next worksession. 35 36 Ranallo stated there has not been a speaker at the Volunteer Dinner for a number of years but he 37 thought an outside speaker would be a positive addition. Morrison presented an information 38 sheet to the Council on a public speaker he had seen recently. #491 Motion by Marks, second by.Thuesen to set the date of April 30, 1999 for the 1999 Volunteer Dinner at the Community Center. r r City Council Meeting Minutes February 23, 1999 Page 6 , 1 Motion carried unanimously. 2 3 C. Discussion of Len Biemat/Mary Jo McGuire Letter to Mayor Ranallo dated February 18, 4 1999 regarding Sroga's Towing Service. 5 Ranallo presented a letter he had received from State Representatives Len Biemat and Mary Jo 6 McGuire with regard to concerns which some residents have expressed to them about the noise 7 and pollution at Sroga's Towing Service, 3210 Stinson Boulevard. He invited Mr. Joe Sroga to 8 address the Council. 9 10 Mr. Sroga stated he has been a resident of the City for 52 years. Ranallo asked whether that 11 block of Stinson Boulevard was grandfathered in as commercial zoning when that area was 12 rezoned. Mr. Sroga stated the block has always been zoned commercial. 13 14 Mr. Sroga stated he believes communication is key to solving the issues involved, adding there 15 have been many conversations with residents in the neighborhood with regard to these issues. 16 He stated neighbors have complained that truck's back-up alarms are annoying, adding that they 17 are a necessity and a regulation for trucks. 18 7 19 Mr. Sroga stated his company has addressed contamination and pollution issues repeatedly, 20 adding an engineering firm had recently been retained by his company to complete borings for 21 contamination throughout the impound lot, and contamination was found inside the shop in an 22 ancient oil drum which was removed along with the contaminated soil around it. He stated the 23 dirt inside the lot is changed every few years to prevent contamination. He stated he is cautious 24 about what is brought into the lot, and Sroga's Towing Service has stepped up to the plate on all 25 issues of contamination and pollution. 26 27 Mr. Sroga stated his company complies with all restrictions and federal regulations, adding he 28 understands that residents don't want a towing service in their neighborhood. He stated he hopes 29 to put up a new fence around the lot to make it look nicer. 30 31 Mr. Sroga stated the trucks use 29th Avenue because it is the only street which provides 32 southbound access to the freeway without going through residential neighborhoods and school 33 areas. He added the trucks attempt to exit the City as quickly as possible. 34 35 Ranallo stated he would like to have the Fire Chief, who enforces City codes, compile all the 36 items presented by Mr. Sroga in a response to Representatives Biemat and McGuire. He added 37 Mr. Sroga and Sroga's Towing Service have always cooperated with the City. He stated the 38 company's use of 29th Avenue was not an issue. 39 '40 Mr. Sroga expressed his appreciation of the business which his company does in St. Anthony, 41 adding he wants to stay in the City if possible. He thanked the Police and Fire Departments for 1 � City Council Meeting Minutes February 23, 1999 0 Page 7 1 excellent job they did for his son which saved his life. Ranallo explained that a large motor 2 home was being repaired and a.line was severed which caused a severe accident. Mr. Sroga 3 reiterated his appreciation of the quality of the Fire Department. 4 5 Faust stated a report in the form of an information packet or press release might be appropriate to 6 address this issue. He agreed the Fire Chief should be the proponent of the report. 7 8 X. UNFINISHED BUSINESS. 9 A.

In order to designate term bonds, the proposal must specify "Last Year of Serial Maturities" and "Years of Term Maturities" in the spaces provided on the Proposal Form. BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of Bonds made to the public.

Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as registered owner of the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments to participants of DTC will be the responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of beneficial owners. The purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to deposit the Bonds with DTC. REGISTRAR The City will name the registrar which shall be subject to applicable SEC regulations. The City will pay for the services of the registrar. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION The City may elect on February 1, 2008, and on any day thereafter, to prepay Bonds due on or after February 1, 2009. Redemption may be in whole or in part and if in part at the option of the City and in such manner as the City shall determine. If less than all Bonds of a maturity are called for redemption, the City will notify DTC of the particular amount of such maturity to be prepaid. DTC will determine by lot the amount of each participant's interest in such maturity to be redeemed and each participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership interests in such maturity to be redeemed. All prepayments shall be at a price of par plus accrued interest. SECURITY AND PURPOSE The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which the City will pledge its full faith and credit and power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes. In addition the City will pledge special assessments against benefited property. The proceeds will be used to finance various improvement projects within the City. TYPE OF PROPOSALS Proposals shall be for not less than $419,900 and accrued interest on the total principal amount of the Bonds. Proposals shall be accompanied by a Good Faith Deposit ("Deposit') in the form of a certified or cashier's check or a Financial Surety Bond in the amount of $4,250, payable to the order of the City. If a check is used, it must accompany each proposal. If a Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a bond in the State of Minnesota, and preapproved by the City. Such bond must be submitted to Springsted Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial Surety Bond must identify each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the Bonds are awarded to an underwriter using a Financial Surety Bond, then that purchaser is required to submit its Deposit to Springsted Incorporated in the form of a certified or cashier's check or wire transfer as instructed by Springsted Incorporated not later than 3:30 P.M., Central Time, on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that time, the Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy the Deposit requirement. The City will deposit the check of the purchaser, the amount of which will be deducted at settlement and no interest will accrue to the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City. No proposal can be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals unless the meeting of the City scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or continued to another date without award of the Bonds having been made. Rates shall be in integral multiples of 5/100 or 1/8 of 1%. Rates must be in ascending order. Bonds of the same maturity shall bear a single rate from the date of the Bonds to the date of maturity. No conditional proposals will be accepted. AWARD The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true interest cost (TIC) basis. The City's computation of the interest rate of each proposal, in accordance with customary practice, will be controlling. The City will reserve the right to: (i) waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals without cause, and, (iii) reject any proposal which the City determines to have failed to comply with the terms herein. CUSIP NUMBERS If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the Bonds. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers shall be paid by the purchaser. SETTLEMENT Within 40 days following the date of their award, the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the purchaser at a place mutually satisfactory to the City and the purchaser. Delivery will be subject to receipt by the purchaser of an approving legal opinion of Dorsey & Whitney LLP of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and of customary closing papers, including a no-litigation certificate. On the date of settlement, payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal, or equivalent, funds which shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than 12:00 Noon, Central Time. Except as compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds shall have been made impossible by action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to the City for any loss suffered by the City by reason of the purchasers non-compliance with said terms for payment. CONTINUING DISCLOSURE Participating underwriters need not comply with the continuing disclosure requirements of Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule"), because the offering is in a principal amount less than $1,000,000. Consequently, the City will not enter into any undertaking to provide continuing disclosure of any kind with respect to the Bonds. OFFICIAL STATEMENT The City has authorized the preparation of an Official Statement containing pertinent information relative to the Bonds, and said Official Statement will serve as a nearly-final Official Statement within the meaning of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For copies of the Official Statement or for any additional information prior to sale, any prospective purchaser is referred to the Financial Advisor to the City, Springsted Incorporated, 85 East Seventh Place, Suite 100, Saint Paul, Minnesota 55101, telephone (651) 223-3000. The Official Statement, when further supplemented by an addendum or addenda specifying the maturity dates, principal amounts and interest rates of the Bonds, together with any other information required by law, shall constitute a "Final Official Statement" of the City with respect to the Bonds, as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12. By awarding the Bonds to any underwriter or underwriting syndicate submitting a proposal therefor, the City agrees that, no more than seven business days after the date of such award, it shall provide without cost to the senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded 50 copies of the Official Statement and the addendum or addenda described above. The City designates the senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded as its agent for purposes of distributing copies of the Final Official Statement to each Participating Underwriter. Any underwriter delivering a proposal with respect to the Bonds agrees thereby that if its proposal is accepted by the City (i) it shall accept such designation and (ii) it shall enter into a contractual relationship with all Participating Underwriters of the Bonds for purposes of assuring the receipt by each such Participating Underwriter of the Final Official Statement.

CONTINUING DISCLOSURE T Participating underwriters need not comply with the continuing disclosure requirement of Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 'Rule"), because the offering is in a principal amount less than $1,000,000. Consequently, the City will not enter into any undertaking to provide continuing disclosure of any kind with respect to the Bonds. - 1 - THE BONDS General Description The Bonds are dated as of April 1, 1999 and will mature annually on February 1, as set forth on the cover of this Official Statement. The Bonds are issued in book entry form. Interest on the Bonds is payable February 1, 2000 and semiannually thereafter on August 1 and February 1. Interest will be payable to the holder (initially Cede & Co.) registered on the books of the registrar (the "Registrar") on the fifteenth day of the calendar month next preceding such interest payment date. Firstar Bank of Minnesota, National Association, St. Paul, Minnesota will serve as Registrar for the Bonds. Principal of and interest on the Bonds will be paid as described in the section herein entitled "Book Entry System." Optional Redemption The City may elect on February 1, 2008, and on any day thereafter, to prepay Bonds due on or after February 1, 2009. Redemption may be in whole or in part and if in part at the option of the City and in such manner as the City shall determine. If less than all Bonds of a maturity are called for redemption, the City will notify DTC of the particular amount of such maturity to be prepaid. DTC will determine by lot the amount of each participant's interest in such maturity to be redeemed and each participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership interests in such maturity to be redeemed. All prepayments shall be at a price of par plus accrued interest. Book Entry System The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for the Bonds. The Bonds will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee). One fully-registered Bond certificate per maturity will be issued in the principal amount of the Bonds maturing in such year, and will be deposited with DTC. DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds securities that its participants ("Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among Participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges in deposited securities through electronic computerized book entry changes in Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants ("Direct Participants") include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is owned by a number of its Direct Participants and by the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc., and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect Participants"). The Rules applicable to DTC and its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Purchases of Bonds under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Bond ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC - 2 - of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interest in the Bonds are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interest in the Bonds, except in the event that use of the book entry system for the Bonds is discontinued. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. The deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co. effect no change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Bonds. DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Bonds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Redemption notices shall be sent to Cede & Co. If less than all of the Bonds within an issue are being redeemed, DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be redeemed. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the Bonds. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Bond Registrar as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Principal and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records unless DTC has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on payable date. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participants and not of DTC, or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal or interest to DTC is the responsibility of the Registrar, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving reasonable notice to the Bond Registrar. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered. The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities depository). In that event, Bond certificates will be printed and delivered. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book entry has been obtained from sources that the City believes to be reliable, but the City takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. - 3 - AUTHORITY AND PURPOSE The Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 429 and 475. The proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance various street improvement projects within the City. The composition of the Bonds is as follows: Project Costs` $394,720 Plus: Issuance Costs 14,300 Allowance for Discount Bidding 5,100 Capitalized Interest 14,800 Less: Estimated Interest Earnings (3,920 Total Series 1999A Bonds . $425,000 Includes engineering, administration and contingency. SECURITY AND FINANCING In addition to its general obligation pie dge, the City pledges special assessments levied against benefited property. Special assessments in the principal amount of$85,824 are expected to be filed on or by September 1, 1999 for first collection in 2000. All assessments will be spread over 15 years in equal annual principal and interest installments with interest charged on the unpaid balance at a rate of 2% over the net interest rate on the Bonds. The balance of debt service not paid by these special assessments is expected to be paid from an annual general ad valorem tax levy of approximately $32,020. The February 1, 2000 interest payment will be made from capitalized interest of $14,800 which was included in the principal amount of the issue. Thereafter, special assessments and levy collections will be in an amount sufficient to pay 105% of the interest coming due August 1 in the year of collection and the principal and interest coming due February 1 of the following year. FUTURE FINANCING The City does not anticipate any additional borrowing for at least the next 90 days. LITIGATION The City is not aware of any threatened or pending litigation affecting the validity of the Bonds or the City's ability to meet its financial obligations. LEGALITY The Bonds are subject to approval as to certain matters by Dorsey & Whitney LLP of Minneapolis, Minnesota as Bond Counsel. Bond Counsel has not participated in the preparation of this Official Statement except for guidance concerning the following section, "Tax Exemption," and will not pass upon its accuracy, completeness, or sufficiency. Bond Counsel has not examined nor attempted to examine or verify, any of the financial or statistical statements, or data contained in this Official Statement, and will express no opinion with respect thereto. A legal opinion substantially in the form as set out in Appendix I herein will be delivered at closing. -4 - TAX EXEMPTION In the opinion of Dorsey & Whitney LLP, as Bond Counsel, under federal and Minnesota laws, regulations, rulings and decisions in effect on the date of issuance of the Bonds, interest on the Bonds is not includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes or in taxable net income of individuals, estates and trusts for Minnesota income tax purposes. Interest on the Bonds is includable in taxable income of corporations and financial institutions for purposes of the Minnesota franchise tax. Certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), however, impose continuing requirements that must be met after the issuance of the Bonds in order for interest thereon to be and remain not includable in federal gross income and in Minnesota taxable net income. Noncompliance with such requirements by the District may cause the interest on the Bonds to be includable in gross income for purposes of federal income taxation and in taxable net income for purposes of Minnesota income taxation, retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds, irrespective in some cases of the date on which such noncompliance is ascertained. No provision has been made for redemption of or for an increase in the interest rate on the Bonds in the event that interest on the Bonds becomes includable in federal gross income or Minnesota taxable income. Interest on the Bonds is not an item of tax preference includable in alternative minimum taxable income for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax applicable to all taxpayers or the Minnesota alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, estates and trusts, but is includable in adjusted current earnings in determining the alternative minimum taxable income of corporations for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. Interest on the Bonds may be includable in the income of a foreign corporation for purposes of the branch profits tax imposed by Section 884 of the Code and is includable in the net investment income of foreign insurance companies for purposes of Section 842(b) of the Code. In the case of an insurance company subject to the tax imposed by Section 831 of the Code, the amount which otherwise would be taken into account as losses incurred under Section 832(b)(5) of the Code must be reduced by an amount equal to fifteen percent of the interest on the Bonds that is received or accrued during the taxable year. Section 86 of the Code requires recipients of certain Social Security and railroad retirement benefits to take into account, in determining the taxability of such benefits, receipts or accruals of interest on the Bonds. Passive investment income, including interest on the Bonds, may be subject to federal income taxation under Section 1375 of the Code for a Subchapter S corporation that has Subchapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year if greater than twenty-five percent of the gross receipts of such Subchapter S corporation is passive investment income. Section 265 of the Code denies a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the Bonds or, in the case of a financial institution, that portion of the holder's interest expense allocated to interest on the Bonds, except with respect to certain financial institutions (within the meaning of Section 265(b) of the Code). The foregoing is not intended to be an exhaustive discussion of collateral tax consequences arising from receipt of interest on the Bonds. Prospective purchasers or holders of the Bonds should consult their tax advisors with respect to collateral tax consequences, including without limitation the calculations of alternative minimum tax, environmental tax or foreign branch profits tax liability or the inclusion of Social Security or other retirement payments in taxable income. BANK QUALIFIED TAX-EXEMPT BONDS The City will designate the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relating to the ability of financial institutions to deduct from income for federal income tax purposes, interest expense that is allocable to carrying and acquiring tax-exempt obligations. - 5 - YEAR 2000 ISSUES Background Many existing computer programs use only the last two digits to refer to a year. These programs do not properly recognize a year that begins with "20" rather than "19". If not corrected, many computer applications could fail or create erroneous results, possibly affecting an organization's operations, financial condition, or ability to make timely payments on its indebtedness. Assessment The City is following the action plan recommended by the League of Minnesota Cities and has completed its assessment of all mechanical equipment, computer hardware and software, and imbedded computer chips for potential Year 2000 problems. The mainframe computer that processes payroll, utility billings and other payments is not Year 2000 compliant and will be replaced in April 1999. Card key access and security for the police department is not compliant, but a compliant upgrade will be purchased in April 1999. One personal computer in the police department is non-compliant; the vendor has been contacted. The software used to connect the police department with the State of Minnesota Public Safety database is not compliant, but staff is working with IBM to determine a fix for the software. The City has an agreement with NetLink to assist them with any Year 2000 issues involving the City's computers, software, and miscellaneous hardware. Third party vendors and service providers have been contacted to determine if they have any Year 2000 compliance issues, and all correspondence is on file with the Y2K Coordinator at City Hall. The City expects its remediation efforts to cost approximately $44,000 and to be completed by August 1999. City Council has approved a $100,000 reserve to deal with Year 2000 issues. The costs and estimated completion dates for the Year 2000 modifications are based on the City's best estimates, which were derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events, including the continued availability of certain resources, third party modification plans and other factors. However, there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated. Specific factors that might cause such material differences include, but are not limited to, the availability and cost of personnel trained in this area and the ability to locate and correct all relevant.computer codes and all equipment and mechanical systems. The failure of the City to cause its computer systems to be Year 2000 compliant or the failure of significant third party vendors to make their systems Year 2000 compliant could materially and adversely affect the financial condition or operations of the City or expose the City to liability if municipal services were interrupted or suspended as a result of such failure. DTC DTC management is aware that some computer applications, systems, and the like for processing data ("Systems") that are dependent upon calendar dates, including dates before, on, and after January 1, 2000, may encounter "Year 2000 problems." DTC has informed its Participants and other members of the financial community (the "Industry") that it has developed and is implementing a program so that its Systems, as the same relate to the timely payment of distributions (including principal and income payments) to security holders, book- entry deliveries, and settlement of trades within DTC ("DTC Services"), continue to function appropriately. This program includes a technical assessment and a remediation plan, each of which is complete. Additionally, DTC's plan includes a testing phase, which is expected to be completed within appropriate time frames. - 6 - However, DTC's ability to perform properly its services is also dependent upon other parties, including but not limited to issuers and their agents, as well as third party vendors from whom DTC licenses software and hardware, and third party vendors on whom DTC relies for information or the provision of services, including telecommunication and electrical utility service providers, among others. DTC has informed the Industry that it is contacting (and will continue to contact) third party vendors from whom DTC acquires services to: (i) impress upon them the importance of such services being Year 2000 compliant; and (ii) determine the extent of their efforts for Year 2000 remediation (and, as appropriate, testing) of their services. In addition, DTC is in the process of developing such contingency plans as it deems appropriate. According to DTC, the foregoing information with respect to DTC has been provided to the _ Industry for informational purposes only and is not intended to serve as a representation, warranty, or contract modification of any kind. RATING An application for a rating of the Bonds has been made to Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"), 99 Church Street, New York, New York. If a rating is assigned, it will reflect only the opinion of Moody's. Any explanation of the significance of the rating may be obtained only from Moody's. There is no assurance that a rating, if assigned, will continue for any given period of time, or that such rating will not be revised or withdrawn, if in the judgment of Moody's, circumstances so warrant. A revision or withdrawal of the rating may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Bonds.

The City has designated the Bonds as "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and, financial institutions described in Section 265(b)(5) of the Code may treat the Bonds for purposes of Section 265(b)(2) and 291(e)(1)(B) of the Code as if they were acquired on August 7, 1986. The opinions expressed in paragraphs 1 and 2 are subject as to enforceability to the effect of any state or federal laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or creditors' rights and the exercise of judicial discretion. The opinions set forth in paragraphs 3 and 4 are subject to the condition that the City comply with all the requirements of the Code that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in order that interest thereon be, or continue to be, excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and the Bonds be and continue to be qualified tax- exempt obligations. The City has covenanted in the resolution authorizing the issuance of the Bonds to comply with these continuing requirements. Failure of the City to comply with these requirements may result in the inclusion of interest on the Bonds in federal gross income and in Minnesota taxable net income, retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. Except as stated in this opinion, we express no opinion regarding federal, state or other tax consequences to owners of the Bonds. We have not been asked, and have not undertaken, to review the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of any offering materials relating to the Bonds, and accordingly, we express no opinion with respect thereto.

APPENDIX II SUMMARY OF TAX LEVIES, PAYMENT PROVISIONS, AND MINNESOTA REAL PROPERTY VALUATION Following is a summary of certain statutory provisions effective through 1999 relative to tax levy procedures, tax payment and credit procedures, and the mechanics of real property valuation. The summary does not purport to be inclusive of all such provisions or of the specific provisions discussed, and is qualified by reference to the complete text of applicable statutes, rules and regulations of the State of Minnesota. Property Valuations (Chapter 273, Minnesota Statutes) Assessor's Estimated Market Value. Each parcel of real property subject to taxation must, by statute, be appraised at least once every four years as of January 2 of the year of appraisal. With certain exceptions, all property is valued at its market value which is the value the assessor determines to be the price the property to be fairly worth, and which is referred to as the "Estimated Market Value." Limitation of Market Value Increases. Effective through assessment year 2001, the amount of increase in market value for all property classified as agricultural homestead or non-homestead, residential homestead or non-homestead, or non-commercial seasonable recreational residential, which is entered by the assessor in the current assessment year, may not exceed the greater of (i) 10% of the preceding year's market value or (ii) 1/4 of the difference between the current assessment and the preceding assessment. Indicated Market Value. Because the Estimated Market Value as determined by an assessor may not represent the price of real property in the marketplace, the "Indicated Market Value" is generally regarded as more representative of full value. The Indicated Market Value is determined by dividing the Estimated Market Value of a given year by the same year's sales ratio determined by the State Department of Revenue. The sales ratio represents the overall relationship between the Estimated Market Value of property within the taxing unit and actual selling price. Net Tax Capacity. The Net Tax Capacity is the value upon which net taxes are levied, extended and collected. The Net Tax Capaci+�,, is computed by applying the class rate percentages specific to each type of property classification against the Estimated Market Value. Class rate percentages vary depending on the type of property as shown on the last page of this Appendix. The formulas and class rates for converting Estimated Market Value to Net Tax Capacity represent a basic element of the State's property flax relief system and are subject to annual revisions by the State Legislature. Property taxes are determined by multiplying the Net Tax Capacity by the tax capacity rate, expressed as a percentage. Property Tax Payments and Delinquencies (Chapters 275, 276, 277, 279-282 and 549, Minnesota Statutes) Ad valorem property taxes levied by local governments in Minnesota are extended and collected by the various counties within the State. Each taxing jurisdiction is required to certify the annual tax levy to the county auditor within five (5) working days after December 20 of the year preceding the collection year. A listing of property taxes due is prepared by the county auditor and turned over to the county treasurer on or before the first business day in March. The county treasurer is responsible for collecting all property taxes within the county. Real estate and personal property tax statements are mailed out by March 31. One-half (1/2) of the taxes on real property is due on or before May 15. The remainder is due on or before October 15. Real property taxes not paid by their due date are assessed a penalty which, depending on the type of property, increases from 2% to 4% on the day after the due date. In II-1 the case of the first installment of real property taxes due May 15, the penalty increases to 4% or 8% on June 1. Thereafter, an additional 1% penalty shall accrue each month through October 1 of the collection year for unpaid real property taxes. In the case of the second installment of real property taxes due October 15, the penalty increases to 6% or 8% on November 1 and increases again to 8% or 12% on December 1. Personal property taxes remaining unpaid on May 16 are deemed to be delinquent and a penalty of 8% attaches to the unpaid tax. However, personal property owned by a tax-exempt entity, but which is treated as taxable by virtue of a lease agreement, is subject to the same delinquent property tax penalties as real property. On the first business day of January of the year following collection all delinquencies are subject to an additional 2% penalty, and those delinquencies outstanding as of February 15 are filed for a tax lien judgment with the district court. By March 20 the clerk of court files a publication of legal action and a mailing of notice of action to delinquent parties. Those property_interests not responding to this notice have judgment entered for the amount of the delinquency and associated penalties. The amount of the judgment is subject to a variable interest determined annually by the Department of Revenue, and equal to the adjusted prime rate charged by banks, but in no event is the rate less than 10% or more than 14%. Property owners subject to a tax lien judgment generally have five years (5) in the case of all property located outside of cities or in the case of residential homestead, agricultural homestead and seasonal residential recreational property located within cities or three (3) years with respect to other types of property to redeem the property. After expiration of the redemption period, unredeemed properties are declared tax forfeit with title held in trust by the State of Minnesota for the respective taxing districts. The county auditor, or equivalent thereof, then sells those properties not claimed for a public purpose at auction. The net proceeds of the sale are first dedicated to the satisfaction of outstanding special assessments on the parcel, with any remaining balance in most cases being divided on the following basis: county - 40%; town or city- 20%; and school district -40%. Property Tax Credits (Chapter 273, Minnesota Statutes) In addition to adjusting the taxable value for various property types, primary elements of Minnesota's property tax relief system are: property tax levy reduction aids; the circuit breaker credit, which relates property taxes to income and provides relief on a sliding income scale; and targeted tax relief, which is aimed primarily at easing the effect of significant tax increases. The circuit breaker credit and targeted credits are reimbursed to the taxpayer upon application by the taxpayer. Property tax levy reduction aid includes educational aids, local governmental aid, equalization aid, homestead and agricultural credit aid (HACA) and disparity reduction aid. Levy Limitations for Counties and Cities (M.S. 275.70 to 275.74 (Laws 1997, Chapter 231, Article 3)) Prior limitations restricting the ability of local governments in Minnesota to levy property taxes expired in 1993. New overall levy limitations are in effect for taxes levied in 1997 and 1998 for all counties and cities with populations exceeding 2,500. Levy increases are limited generally to 2.2% over the payable 1997 tax levy plus any increase due to growth in population. Certain property tax levies are authorized outside of the new overall levy limitation ("special levies"). Special levies include debt service levies for bonded indebtedness, excluding installment payments on conditional sales contracts, debt service on state-aid road bonds, payments on contracts for deed, any levies to pay debt service on tax increment revenue bonds, and lease payments under certificates of participation. In order to receive approval for any special levy claims outside of the overall levy limitation, requests for such special levies must be submitted to the Property Tax Division of the Department of Revenue on or before September 15th in the year in which the levy is to be made for collection in the following year. The Department of Revenue has the authority to approve, reduce or deny a special levy 11-2 request. Final adjustments to all levies must be made by the Department of Revenue on or before December 10th. • Debt Limitations All Minnesota municipalities (counties, cities, towns and school districts) are subject to statutory "net debt" limitations under the provisions of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.53. Net debt is defined as the amount remaining after deducting from gross debt the amount of current revenues which are applicable within the current fiscal year to the payment of any debt and the aggregate of the principal of the following: 1. Bonds issued for improvements which are payable wholly or partially from the proceeds of special assessments levied upon benefited property. 2. Warrants or orders having no definite or fixed maturity. 3. Bonds payable wholly from the income from revenue producing conveniences. 4. Bonds issued to create or maintain a permanent improvement revolving fund. 5. Bonds issued for the acquisition and betterment of public waterworks systems, and public lighting, heating or power systems, and any combination thereof, or for any other public convenience from which revenue is or may be derived. 6. Certain debt service loans and capital loans made to school districts. 7. Certain obligations to repay loans. 8. Bonds specifically excluded under the provisions of law authorizing their issuance. 9. Certain obligations to pay pension fund liabilities. 10. Debt service funds for the payment of principal and interest on obligations other than those described above. Levies for General Bond Debt (Sections 475.61 and 475.74, Minnesota Statutes) Any municipality which issues general obligation debt must, at the time of issuance, certify levies to the county auditor of the county(ies) within which the municipality is situated. Such levies shall be in an amount that if collected in full will, together with estimates of other revenues pledged for payment of the obligations, produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to pay principal and interest when due. Notwithstanding any other limitations upon the ability of a taxing unit to levy taxes, its ability to levy taxes for a deficiency in prior levies for payment of general obligation indebtedness is without limitation as to rate or amount. Metropolitan Revenue Distribution (Chapter 473F, Minnesota Statutes) "Fiscal Disparities Law" The Charles R. Weaver Metropolitan Revenue Distribution Act, more commonly known as "Fiscal Disparities," was first implemented for taxes payable in 1975. Forty percent of the increase in commercial-industrial (including public utility and railroad) net tax capacity valuation since 1971 in each assessment district in the Minneapolis/St. Paul seven-county metropolitan area (Anoka, Carver, Dakota, excluding the City of Northfield, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott, excluding the City of New Prague, and Washington Counties) is contributed to an area-wide tax base. A distribution index, based on the factors of population and real property market value per capita, is employed in determining what proportion of the net tax capacity value in the area- wide tax base shall be distributed back to each assessment district. 11-3 STATUTORY FORMULAE CONVERSION OF ESTIMATED MARKET VALUE (EMV)TO NET TAX CAPACITY FOR MAJOR PROPERTY CLASSIFICATIONS Net Tax Capacity Net Tax Capacity Net Tax Capacity Net Tax Capacity Net Tax Capacity General Classifications Levy Year 1994 Levy Year 1995 Levy Year 1996 Levy Year 1997 Levy Year 1998 Residential Homestead First$72,000 of EMV at 1.00% First$72,000 of EMV at 1.00% First$72,000 of EMV at 1.00% First$75,000 of EMV at 1.00% First$75,000 of EMV at 1.00% EMV in excess of$72,000 EMV in excess of$72,000 EVM in excess of$72,000 EMV in excess of$75,000 EMV in excess of$75,000 at 2.00% at 2.00% at 2.00% at 1.85% at 1.70% Residential Non-Homestead 3.40% 3.40%;except certain cities of 3.40%;except certain cities of 2.90°/x;except certain cities of 2.50%;except certain cities of 4 or more units 5,000 population or less 5,000 population or less 5,000 population or less 5,000 population or less at 2.30% at 2.30% at 2.30% at 2.15% Agricultural Homestead First$72,000 EMV of house, First$72,000 EMV of house, First$72,000 EMV of house, First$75,000 EMV of house, First$75,000 EMV of house, garage and 1 acre at 1.00% garage and 1 acre at 1.00% garage and 1 acre at 1.00% garage and 1 acre at 1.00% garage and 1 acre at 1.00% EMV In excess of$72,000 of EMV in excess of$72,000 of EMV in excess of$72,000 of EMV in excess of$75,000 of EMV in excess of$75,000 of house,garage and 1 acre house,garage and 1 acre house,garage and 1 acre house,garage and 1 acre house,garage and 1 acre at 2.00% at 2.00% at 2.00% at 1.85% at 1.70% Remaining Property: Remaining Property: Remaining Property: Remaining Property: Remaining Property: First$115,000 of EMV on First$115,000 of.EMV on First$115,000 of EMV on First$115,000 of EMV on first First$115,000 of EMV on first 320 acres at 0.45% first 320 acres at 0.45% first 320 acres at 0.45% 320 acres at 0.40% first 320 acres at 0.35% EMV in excess of$115,000 on EMV in excess of$115;000 on EMV in excess of$115,000 on EMV in excess of$115,000 on EMV in excess of$115,000 on first 320 acres at 1.00% first 320 acres at 1.00% first 320 acres at 1.00% first 320 acres at 0.90% first 320 acres at 0.80% EMV in excess of$115,000 EMV in excess of$115,000 EMV in excess of$115,000 EMV in excess of$115,000 EMV in excess of$115,000 over 320 acres at 1.50% over 320 acres at 1.50% over 320 acres at 1.50% over 320 acres at 1.40% over 320 acres at 1.25% Agricultural Non-Homestead EMV of house,garage and EMV of house,garage and EMV of house,garage and First$75,000 of EMV of house, First$75,000 of EMV of house, 1 acre at 2.30% 1 acre at 2.30% 1 acre at 2.30% garage and 1 acre at 1.90% garage and 1 acre at 1.25% EMV of land and other buildings EMV of land and other buildings EMV of land and other buildings EMV in excess of$75,000 of EMV in excess of$75,000 of at 1.50% at 1.50% at 1.50% house,garage and 1 acre house,garage and 1 acre at 2.10% at 1.70% EMV of land and other buildings EMV of land and other buildings at 1.40% at 1.25% Commercial-Industrial First$100,000 of EMV at 3.00% First$100,000 of EMV at 3.00% First$100,000 of EMV at 3.00% First$150,000 of EMV at 2.70% First$150,000 of EMV at 2.45% EMV in excess of$100,000 EMV in excess of$100,000 EMV in excess of$100,000 EMV in excess of$150,000 EMV in excess of$150,000 at 4.60% at 4.60% at 4.60% at 4.00% at 3.50% Seasonal/Recreational Non-Commercial Non-Commercial Non-Commercial Non-Commercial Non-Commercial Residential First$72,000 of EMV First$72,000 of EMV First$72,000 of EMV First$75,000 of EMV First$75,000 of EMV at 2.00% at 2.00% at 1.75% at 1.40% at 1.25% EMV in excess of$72,000 EMV in excess of$72,000 EMV in excess of$72,000 EMV in excess of$75,000 EMV in excess of$75,000 at 2.50% at 2.50% at 2.50% at 2.50% at 2.20% Commercial-2.30% Commercial-2.30% Commercial-2.30% Commercial-2.10% Commercial—1.80% Vacant Land N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A (All vacant land is reclassified to (All vacant land is reclassified to (All vacant land is reclassified to (All vacant land is reclassified to (All vacant land Is reclassified to highest and best use highest and best use highest and best use highest and best use highest and best use pursuant to local zoning pursuant to local zoning pursuant to local zoning pursuant to local zoning pursuant to local zoning ordinance) ordinance) ordinance ordinance ordinance APPENDIX III SELECTED ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IWOExcerpts from the City's annual financial statements from the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 are presented on the following pages.

First Reading: February 9, 1999 Second Reading: February 23, 1999 Adopted: March 9, 1999 Mayor • ATTEST: Publish: St. Anthony Bulletin on MEMORANDUM DATE: January 30, 1999 TO: Mike Mornson, City Manager FROM: Roger Larson, Finance Director ITEM: 1999 WATER/SEWER RATES The Public Works Director has submitted a 1999 water budget of $413,900 and a sewer budget of$714,700. 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: • In 1999, it is anticipated that St. Anthony will sell 40,120,000 cubic feet of water. Calculating the estimated water sales (40,120,000 divided by 100 x $1.00) shows a total income of $401,200. Expenditures of$413,900 plus the water filtration levy transfer of $15,200 requires revenues to total $429,100. Based on estimated water sales of $401,200 a deficit of ($27,900) exists and a rate increase is necessary to balance the water-operating budget. Recommendation: The present rate of $1.00 per 100 cubic feet is not sufficient to balance the 1999 water- operating budget. Projected expenditures exceed revenues by ($27,900), therefore, staff requests Council to amend ordinance 610.02 to reflect a rate increase of $ .07 cents per 100cf. (40,120,000 divided by 100 X $ 1.07 = $ 429,300) Sewer: Currently, sanitary sewer disposal costs the residents $1.84 per 100 cubic feet. Based on Metro Waste's estimate of flowage, disposal costs for '99 will be higher than last year. In 1999, Metro Sewers charges will be based on 360,000,000 gallons of sanitary waste for a total disposal cost of$498,300 compared to last year's payment of$486,300 (Up $12,000). It is estimated that the City ill sell 37,500,000 cubic feet of sewer in 1999. Calculating the • tY g estimated 1999 sewer revenue (37,500,000 divided by 100 X $1.84) shows a total income of $690,000. Projected expenditures of $714,700 produces a deficit of ($24,700) and an increase is necessary to balance the operating budget. A rate increase of$ .07 cents per 100cf is necessary to fund the 1999 sewer operating budget. (37,500,000 divided by 100 X $1.91 = $716,200) In 1988, the City Council passed an ordinance relating to sewer rates and charges. It reads that .all sewer charges shall be at the rate of$1.20 per hundred cubic feet of water used plus a Metro Waste surcharge as determined by the following formula: Metro Waste Rate Surcharge Formula X = .88Y -$.88 + F $315,000 X = Surcharge per 100 cubic feet Y = Metro Waste charges for calendar year ($498,300 in '99) F = Inflationary Factor to Balance Budget ($:20 cents in '99) This formula allows for changes in the sewer rates without amending the ordinance. The rate increase is handled administratively and requires no Council Action.
